Chapter 1694: Helian Ying’s Grief I
Feng Lianqing was startled. He understood that what Feng Ruqing said was true, but he fell silent. He had no more words.
Feng Ruqing had left, and he did not even notice it. He stood there for a long time, lost in his own thoughts…
***
Feng Ruqing walked to the backyard and saw Qing Han playing with the red fox. She paused and asked, “Qing Han, has State Preceptor returned?”
Qing Han turned her head and looked at Feng Ruqing, confused. “Mother, didn’t Father leave with you?”
Feng Ruqing was silent for a moment. ‘It seems that State Preceptor hasn’t returned yet.’
“Mother… ” Fu Chen turned his gaze toward Feng Ruqing. “What happened? Why didn’t you come back together?”
Feng Ruqing’s face darkened, wishing to pull Qing Zhu out and beat it up again.
“Qing Zhu has left a mark, but maybe State Preceptor didn’t recognize it, so he didn’t come to me. I’m back now, he should have gotten the news, and he will return to Wu Shang City soon.”
“Oh…”
Qing Han blinked and jumped to Feng Ruqing’s side. “Mother, when will Grandmother Suyi come? I miss her.”
Feng Ruqing was stunned.
‘This little brat is thinking of Suyi to take her to play and burn this place?’
A servant suddenly came to the door and said respectfully, “Young Lady, Manor Lady of the Helian family has come to meet you?”
“Manor Lady of the Helian family?” Feng Ruqing frowned. “Isn’t there only Helian Yue in the Helian family?”
“Mother has a worse memory than I do…” Little Qing Han raised her small face proudly. “There’s another person in the Helian family. I don’t know her name… Brother Fu Chen told me. He said that person doesn’t seem like a good girl. She always looks at Helian Yue evilly as if she’s thinking of something bad…”
Qing Han was not there back then, but she had found out about it from Fu Chen. She never thought that her mother, who was there, would have forgotten about it.
Feng Ruqing narrowed her eyes and smirked. “Let her in.”
“Yes, Young Lady.”
The servant left after receiving her order.
A moment later, a woman with light makeup followed the servant in.
The woman’s face was considered beautiful, or at least the kind that would make a man’s heart soften when he looked at her. She looked like a girl from a n.o.ble family, soft and gentle.
Helian Ying followed the servant and walked in quickly. She raised her eyes and saw Feng Ruqing, who was sitting on the stone bench.
She was dressed in red, and her eyes were too similar to Tian Ya’s. It was no wonder Helian Yue was able to tell at a glance that she had a relationship with Tian Ya.
If she could have met Feng Ruqing earlier, perhaps… The one who got the help from Tian Ya’s granddaughter would be her…
“Young Lady Feng…”
With a slight smile, Helian Ying wanted to take a seat in front of Feng Ruqing.
When she met Feng Lianqing, she had also sat in front of him like this, and Feng Lianqing had no complaint about this… Even though he sometimes looked a little uncomfortable… Except for this time… She did not understand why he did not even let her in…
However…
The stone bench exploded before Helian Ying could sit on it. She was caught off guard and fell to the ground, screaming painfully.
With a cup of tea in her hand, Feng Ruqing looked at Helian Ying smilingly. “What do you want from me?”
