1691 A Small Attack, Great Punishment (4)
“It’s a habit I’ve had since I was young. Yu Lian often comes to annoy me, and I don’t really like them,” said Qu Lanyi. Yun Feng chuckled. That made sense. He was the Young Master of both light and darkness. It was normal for him to be alone.
“Alright, got it,” said Yun Feng. Qu Lanyi was silent for a while and said in a low voice, “What the old man said today was to take me down a notch. Don’t mind him.”
Yun Feng smiled. She sat next to Qu Lanyi and looked at the scenery around her. She said casually, “The leader of the Naxi family did the right thing. I’m a young woman who has just arrived after all. It’s not easy for me to meet him.” Yun Feng understood what leader of the Naxi family was thinking in her mind. What happened to Yu Lian must make the leader of the Naxi family feel that she, a young woman, needed to be disciplined.
Qu Lanyi’s expression became warm. He leaned half of his body on the table in front of him and put his handsome face in his bent arms. He looked at Yun Feng with warmth in his black eyes. It couldn’t be better if she thought so.
Seeing Qu Lanyi’s expression, Yun Feng’s black eyes couldn’t help but warm up. She poked his cheek gently with her finger. “What you did today was indeed a bit too much.”
Qu Lanyi chuckled. “So what?”
Yun Feng smiled. She really couldn’t do anything about him. Suddenly, she thought of the shocked expressions of the Naxi clansmen. Yun Feng asked, “Lanyi, why are they so shocked to see you with me? Did you…”
Embarrassment suddenly flashed through his handsome face, which had always been calm. Yun Feng felt that she had caught something interesting. “Lanyi, have you never been with other women in the past?”
A suspicious blush appeared on Qu Lanyi’s cheeks. “Of… Of course… You’re the first.”
The man said very softly, but Yun Feng smiled after hearing that. Qu Lanyi looked even more embarrassed and uncomfortable. “W-What are you laughing at?”
Yun Feng smiled. Ever since the first time she came into contact with him, he had been so enthusiastic about her. Her feelings had slowly germinated under his relentless pursuit. Yun Feng had always thought that Qu Lanyi had his own experience with relationships. After all, he didn’t seem to be as one-track-minded as her. The Naxi was such an outstanding clan. There must be a lot of outstanding women in their clan. Yun Feng had never thought that Qu Lanyi was also a pure novice in relationships! He was actually no different from her.
Seeing that Yun Feng was smiling so happily, Qu Lanyi was happy in his mind even though he was uncomfortable. He bent his finger and looked at Yun Feng’s forehead gently with affection in his black eyes. He smiled helplessly. “Naughty.”
“I thought a woman who had a history with you might pop up after coming to the Naxi family.”
Qu Lanyi widened his black eyes. “How is that possible?”
Yun Feng nodded and still couldn’t hide her smile. It was indeed impossible, but there should be a lot of women who liked him. Yu Lian was probably the boldest and most straightforward one.
“Right, where’s your mother?” Yun Feng stopped smiling and asked softly. Qu Lanyi froze and looked elsewhere. “She’s dead. She left after giving birth to me.”
Yun Feng was stunned. Even though Qu Lanyi was expressionless, Yun Feng was inexplicably sad in her mind. She gently pulled Qu Lanyi’s sleeve. Qu Lanyi turned around with a smile in his black eyes. “I’m fine. Life and death are no big deal. Everyone will take this step.”
Yun Feng was stunned again. This was the second time she heard such a remark. Her ancestor said that because he had experienced life and death, but what Qu Lanyi said surprised Yun Feng.
“Lanyi…” Yun Feng called softly. Qu Lanyi smiled gently. “Hm?”
Yun Feng wanted to say something, but her throat seemed to be stuck. In the end, she could only smile gently. Qu Lanyi reached out and held Yun Feng gently in his arms. A warmth slowly surrounded Yun Feng. Yun Feng closed her black eyes. He was so warm… But what about his heart?
Late at night, the leader of the Naxi family was sitting at the table and looking down at something. A tall figure pushed the door open and entered. The leader of the Naxi family didn’t even look up. “You’re here.”
Qu Lanyi stood by the door and replied indifferently. He waited patiently for a while. The leader of the Naxi family finally raised his head with deep black eyes. “I’ve already heard about that girl of the Yun family. What do you think about Yu Lian?”
Qu Lanyi snorted coldly. “She reaped what she sowed. It has nothing to do with Fengfeng.”
The leader of Naxi chuckled. “Kid, aren’t you a bit too protective? I haven’t said anything about that girl yet and you’re already protecting her?”
Qu Lanyi raised his brows and became serious. “Old man, she didn’t come back with me this time to get your approval.”
The leader of the Naxi family also looked a bit more serious. He tapped the table a few times with his finger. “I know. The Blood Souls’ movements are getting more and more obvious. Is she here to drag the Naxi family down with her this time?”
Qu Lanyi’s face suddenly darkened. “Not dragging us down! With the current development of the Blood Souls, do you really think the Naxi family can stay out of it?”
The leader of the Naxi family sat there in silence and became gloomier. In the end, he sighed. Qu Lanyi suddenly took out his white jade pendant. The leader of the Naxi family raised his thick eyebrows when he saw that. Qu Lanyi said in a low voice, “Is the light-element Fantastical Beast sealed in this jade pendant?”
The leader of Naxi was stunned. Qu Lanyi put the white jade pendant on the table. “The Naxi family also has the ability to tame beasts? Old man, there’s something you should tell me. You have to tell me!”
The leader of Naxi chuckled. Qu Lanyi frowned. “Old man, what are you laughing at?”
The leader of the Naxi family glanced at the white jade pendant on Qu Lanyi’s table and touched it gently with his finger. A faint light shone out of the jade pendant. Qu Lanyi frowned even more. The leader of the Naxi family said slowly, “Meeting that girl of the Yun family has changed you a lot. You wouldn’t have been interested in such things in the past. When have you ever taken the matter of the Naxi family to heart?”
“Old man…” Qu Lanyi was slightly stunned. He was right. Ever since he grew up, he had never taken the matters of the Naxi family to heart. Qu Lanyi pondered in his mind. He only understood what responsibility and family meant after meeting Fengfeng. Along the way, Qu Lanyi had actually thought a lot when he saw Fengfeng’s persistence and love for the Yun family.
