Qin Fei’er’s face darkened. She was obviously younger than Zong Yi, yet these people said she was Zong Yi’s sister?
However, when Qin Fei’er saw Feng Ruqing looking at her, all the grief and anger on her face suddenly disappeared and were replaced by calmness.
She walked with Zong Yi like a graceful white swan with an elegant smile. Her eyes unblinking and were calm as ever.
Zong Fu looked at Qin Fei’er who came with Zong Yi, and in the end, he did not say anything. After all, the world knew that he had taken Qin Fei’er as his adoptive daughter, and he still had to give her some face.

Feng Ruqing calmly looked at Qin Fei’er, then she turned to Gu Shi.
“Master Gu, where are the people of the Mu family? And Nan Xian… Is he back yet?”
Gu Shi smiled faintly. “Maiden Feng, there’s no need to worry. They have some things delayed and will come over later. I’m here, and no one will dare to bully your Fengyun Manor.”
He glanced at the people present coldly, especially those who had just been talking about Feng Ruqing.
His stern eyes were like knives, carrying a warning.
Everyone could hear it and was somewhat shocked.
This person, Gu Shi… He was different from any ordinary person.
He did not like to befriend anyone, even if it was the Divine Herbs Sect or Deities Gate.
All these years, one had never heard of him befriending anyone.
But why was he… Defending a girl like this…
These people stared at Feng Ruqing for half a moment, and then looked at Nalan Yan who was standing beside her.
After almost twenty years, Fengyun Manor had grown from small, unknown forces to the powerful Fengyun Manor. Gu Shi from Tian Shen Manor was a clever man. He naturally wanted to recruit Fengyun Manor.
As the lady of Fengyun Manor, of course, he would treat her well.
After all…
Gu Shi would not live forever. There would be a day when when he would bid farewell to the world of the living. His only daughter, Gu Yiyi, had no skills, so he must find a patron for her, even if he needed… To betray Gu Yiyi’s dignity?
Looking at Gu Yiyi’s expression as she stared at Feng Ruqing with her hand on her cheek unblinkingly, the crowd could not help but sneer.
‘Well, it seems that this Gu Yiyi… is willing to devote herself to Feng Ruqing.’
‘And Feng Ruqing is indifferent to Jiu Ming, maybe… She likes a woman?’
‘Too bad…’
‘Such a beautiful girl, but she likes… A woman…’
“It’s good that he’s back.”
Feng Ruqng’s heart was only for Nan Xian. As if she did not see the regretful expressions of the people around her, she sighed lightly and smiled as her hand gently caressed her lower abdomen.
If Nan Xian was with Suyi, then he must already know… About her pregnancy.
No matter what, since Nan Xian would appear today, she would wait for him at the Divine Herbs Sect.
“Hmph!”
A cold snorting sound was heard among the crowd.
Jiu Ming turned his gaze and saw his uncle, Jiu Yue, was standing and looking at Feng Ruqing with his dark gaze. “Little girl! You’re the one who has seduced Jiu Ming and made him give you Paramount?”
What?
The crowd was horrified.
Paramount was established by Master Jiu Ming from Deities Gate, and he also held an important position within the reclusive world.
