filled with sweetness. She never expected him to appear here, she couldn't say she wasn't touched."You'd better leave immediately. The Empress Dowager and the Emperor are both after you, you can't le...Luoli held a wine glass, draining cup after cup, her heartache finding no outlet.

"Think it over carefully, I have something else to attend to. I'll be going now."

Li Wuyan got up and walked to the entrance of the private room. He turned his head and glanced at Luoli, his eyes drooping, his expression filled with dejection.

Feng Lingxi delivered the pills to General Fu and gave them to Feng Yu Xi. Looking at her frail body, Feng Lingxi's eyes were filled with heartache. Was this child something that Luo Li truly wanted or not Seeing her suffer from the poison's torment, how could he bear it

"After she finishes this medicine, I'll bring more tomorrow. Once she takes it, she'll become sleepy and drowsy, so stay with her. As long as she doesn't vomit, there's nothing to worry about." Feng Lingxi instructed, then withdrew her gaze.

"Feng Lingxi, thank you."

Feng Yu Xi's excitement couldn't be described in words. Watching Nian Li swallow the pill, Feng Yu Xi felt gratitude beyond measure. She didn't even know how to repay her for saving her life.

"This is what I promised you, Feng Yu Xi, take good care of her."

Wind Lingxi came out of the General's Mansion and stood on the bustling street, looking at the people on the street. Five years had passed, and many of these people were unfamiliar faces. Time could indeed wash away people's memories. Now, how many people could recognize her

"Xier."

Li Wuyan came out of the tavern and saw Feng Lingxi. He was overjoyed and rushed forward, grabbing Feng Lingxi's arms. Looking at her with disbelief, he was too excited to speak.

"It's really you."

"Li Wuyan, long time no see."

Feng Lingxi's eyes were filled with surprise, but she quickly regained her composure.

Li Wuyan's expression stiffened slightly, looking at Feng Lingxi's attitude, he hurriedly retracted his hand, "Sorry, I was rude."

"Find a place to sit and talk, it's been ages since I've seen you."

Feng Lingxi opened her mouth, Li Wuyan hurriedly took Feng Lingxi to a teahouse not far away, deliberately avoiding the tavern where Luo Li was, so they wouldn't run into each other.

Five years had passed since they last met. When Feng Ling Xi and Li Wu Yan finally saw each other again, the difference in their attitudes was truly apparent. Li Wu Yan had matured considerably over the past five years, becoming even more handsome. He also spoke much more than before, while Feng Ling Xi, on the other hand, spoke less and less.

"Missing for five years, where have you been"

Li Wuyan nodded at the tea and pastries, inquiring with concern, "Do you know that for the past five years, everyone has been looking for you."

"Including you, are you also looking for me"

Feng Lingxi asked faintly, seeing Li Wuyan nod, Feng Lingxi said, "Thank you."

It turned out that during her five years of disappearance, so many people still cared about her, looking for her. No matter what their true intentions were, at least it proved that she was still important.

“I've been in Xigu Country all along, but I became a disciple and studied medicine with my master on the mountain. I never left to live a secluded life. If not for Wan’er turning ten soon, perhaps I would have stayed hidden away like this.”

"Did you come out for Wan'er"

Hearing that she was doing well, Li Wu-yan's guilt in his heart lessened a little. However, for some reason, he couldn't feel Feng Ling-xi's happiness. This wasn't the kind of life a woman who was truly happy should have.

"Yes."

But you are not happy.

Li Wuyan looked at her, seeing Feng Lingxi staring at him, his voice softened slightly, "You now give me the feeling of someone without emotion. Is that really what you want"

What do you want to tell me

Feng Lingxi looked at Li Wuyan, “I'm just seeing through things. Some things, happiness isn't about laughing out loud, and those who laugh aren't necessarily happy.”

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

Li Wuyan's smile froze instantly, looking at Feng Lingxi's lips curled into a half-smile, he was speechless.

"I didn't mean to say that, I just wanted to tell you that sometimes seeing is not always believing."

Feng Lingxi poured a cup of water for Li Wuyan, "You're right, aren't you, King Feng"

Li Wuyan chuckled self-deprecatingly, "Under the emperor's feet, can you let me go"

"Then it depends on your sincerity." Feng Lingxi curled her lips, her sharp eyes fixed on Li Wuyan, "Tell me what you know."

"What do you want to know About your mother"

Feng Lingxi had to admit, Li Wuyan's words piqued her curiosity. She originally wanted to ask about what happened five years ago with Luo Li, but when it came to her mother, Feng Lingxi had no choice. She admitted, she was curious.

"Do you know what's happened to my mother"

"Haven't you returned to the Lu residence yet I came to find you today, wanting to see you. I wanted to tell you about your mother. Since we've met now, I'll just say it. I won't bother you tomorrow."

Feng Lingxi glanced around, "Let's move to a different place to talk. This isn't safe."

"Let's go to the restaurant for a meal. I have something I want to give you."

Feng Lingxi got up and followed Li Wuyan to the tavern. It was Luo Li in that tavern. Li Wuyan knew that someone would soon tell Luo Li that he had come with Feng Lingxi, but he didn't hide it from Luo Li.

No sooner had the two people sat down than a figure walked towards them. The person who came was Luo Li.

Many years hadn't changed Luoli, he was still the same as before. The only difference, perhaps, was the wicked glint in his eyes, and a touch of devilishness in his demeanor.

"It seems wherever Li Wuyan is, you will appear."

Feng Lingxi opened her mouth, and the few doubts in her heart disappeared in an instant.

She should have thought of it, Luoli and Li Wuyan have always been together. Thinking about her, Li Wuyan was also involved. For a moment, Feng Lingxi's eyes looking at Li Wuyan changed color.

Luo Li sat down and draped her arm over Li Wu Yan's shoulder, "Wherever Ah Yan is, that's where I am. Didn't you know that already"

Li Wuyan didn't push away Luoli's hand. Feng Lingxi raised an eyebrow at Li Wuyan and said faintly, "Since we bumped into each other, why don't we sit down and have a good chat I think you have a lot of questions you want to ask me."

"You too."

Luo Li withdrew her hand and poured wine for Feng Ling Xi. As her fingers brushed the rim of the cup, Feng Ling Xi reached out to block it, "When did the Clan Chief start playing tricks on me"

Luoli burst into laughter, "It seems your medical skills have indeed improved significantly. Not only are you skilled in medicine, but your eyesight has also sharpened considerably. It seems that the past five years have treated you well."

"It's a pity, your skills aren't as sharp as they used to be."

The wine and dishes arrived. Feng Lingxi looked at Li Wuyan who remained silent, her gaze sweeping over Luoli, "Who among you will ask first"

"I've asked everything."

Li Wu Yan opened his mouth, “Luo Li, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask.”

Luo Li took a sip of wine, her evil eyes sweeping across Feng Ling Xi's stunning face. "Since you intend to speak plainly, I might as well be direct. Where have you been hiding for the past five years Why didn't you show up when I searched everywhere you could possibly be"

"Deep in the mountains and old forest, have you searched the mountains"

Feng Ling Xi's answer caused Luo Li's face to stiffen, "You really are good at hiding. You didn't appear for five years, you're really capable."

Naturally, it takes longer."have several years to prepare."The Third Princess found a way to step down gracefully, and Feng Ling Xi nodded at her.
