‘Have a child together?’
“Feng Yili, have you gone mad?!” Yu Yunxi glared at Feng Yili.
However, Feng Yili answered seriously, “I’m serious.”
Feng Yili had figured it out. His status in Yu Yunxi’s heart would depend on his child. As long as they had a child together, he was not worried he would not be able to win her heart!
Yu Yunxi said threateningly, “If you don’t let me go, don’t blame me for…” Feng Yili interjected, “I won’t blame you for being rude. In fact, I hope you’ll be rude…’
‘Does he know what he’s saying?’
“Feng Yili!”
“Alright, alright, I won’t force you,” Feng Yili said hoarsely, sounding helpless. He lay next to her and pulled her into his arms.
“You…”
“I’m tired. Let’s sleep,” Feng Yili said as he pressed her head against his chest. Before she could speak again, he pressed her sleeping acupoint.
Before falling asleep, Yu Yunxi was so angry that she wished she could bite Feng Yili. He really had no scruples at all! He would tap her acupoints every time. She had to improve her martial arts in the future so he would not be able to restrain her anymore.
Feng Yili’s gaze was filled with helplessness as he looked at Yu Yunxi’s sleeping face.
“If only you could be gentler to me one day…’
Feng Yili looked at her for a long time before he got up and covered her with a blanket. After that, he left the room.
After leaving the room, Feng Yili went to look for the little bun.
At this moment, Qian Qing emerged from the darkness and pointed her sword at him. She said expressionlessly, “Prince Regent, if you take another step forward, I won’t be polite with you.”
Feng Yili did not look at her. Instead, he glanced to the side and said, “Luo
Xiuran, I found an opportunity for you.”
Soon enough, Luo Xiuran walked out from a corner.
‘Why is he here?’
Qian Qing frowned when she saw Luo Xiuran. It was understandable if she could not sense Feng Yili’s presence since she knew Feng Yili’s martial arts were very powerful.
However, she did not even know that Luo Xiuran was hiding here. However,
she did not sense Luo Xiuran hiding here at all.
After a moment, Qian Qing steeled her heart and pointed her sword at Luo Xiuran.
However, Luo Xiuran seemed to have turned into a different person now. He did not look as carefree as he usually did. His expression was serious, and his movements were as swift as the wind. With his bare hands, he snatched the sword from Qian Qing’s hand. Although he was injured, he did not frown at all. After snatching the sword away, he carried her up and said solemnly, “I can explain what happened back then.”
Qian Qing was finally taken away by Luo Xiuran, and the secret guards in the courtyard were also dealt with by Feng Yili. However, Feng Yili was not happy at all. He frowned as he thought to himself, ‘The noble King of Xinan’s Residence actually gave her and Junjin guards like these? They would be in danger if they encountered a powerful enemy…’
With this thought in mind, his urge to bring the mother and son back to the Prince Regent’s Residence intensified.
Feng Yili entered the little bun’s room.
At this time, the little bun was sleeping soundly. He was hugging his blanket tightly, and from time to time, the corners of his lips would lift up into a satisfied smile.
‘Has he stopped sleepwalking?’
Feng Yili finally relaxed when he saw the little bun sleeping peacefully. He walked over to the bed when he heard the little bun calling out, “Father!”
Feng Yili’s heart trembled slightly, and his expression was extremely complicated. After a long time, he leaned closer and smoothed out the crease between the little bun’s eyebrows.
The little bun was not wearing the human skin mask so his face resembled that of Shen Hezhi at this moment.
Feng Yili gently stroked the little bun’s head and said in a low voice, “Junjin, your mother has overlooked one thing. Before I was five years old, I used to sleepwalk as well…
After a long time, Feng Yili covered the little bun with a blanket like he did with Yu Yunxi before he left.
When the sounds of footsteps could no longer be heard, the little bun suddenly opened his eyes. He gulped as he stared at the door. After a long time, he murmured, “It’s over! It seems like Father knows my identity. Should I tell Mother about this?”
Meanwhile, Luo Xiuran brought Qian Qing to the Luo family’s mausoleum.
It was dark and cold, but it could not extinguish the flames of fury in Qian Qing’s heart.
“Luo Xiuran!”
When Qian Qing regained her freedom, she immediately placed her dagger against Luo Xiuran’s neck, drawing a little blood.
However, Luo Xiuran did not flinch at all. He looked at her calmly and said, “Turn around and have a look.”
‘What?’
Perhaps Luo Xiuran’s expression was too calm, Qian Qing only hesitated for a moment before she turned around. She saw a tomb behind her, and on the tomb, it was written: The Tomb of Luo Xiuran, the legitimate son of the Luo family.
“You…”
Qian Qing frowned and instinctively took a few steps back, staring at Luo Xiuran in shock.
“There’s indeed a Luo Xiuran lying under this tomb,” Luo Xiuran said calmly. He took out a jar of wine and poured it on the tomb before he lit the candles with a match.
The flickering light was reflected in his seductive but lonely eyes as he asked quietly, “Are you interested in hearing a story?”
Qian Qing did not say anything, which could be considered acquiescence.
“More than 20 years ago, the Luo family was deeply trusted by the Great Ancestor. At that time, a pair of twins were born in the Luo family. The family wanted to report this to the Great Ancestor, but the former Imperial Preceptor at that time said that twins were an ominous sign. Coincidentally, at that time, the north and south of Tianxia were experiencing a rare drought..
“The entire Luo family discussed the matter and felt that it was truly not wise to reveal that there was a pair of twins in the family. The eldest twin was weak, and the younger twin was healthy. As such, they doted on the weak son and raised him carefully…’
“The other twin was taken away and raised by the nanny for years. It was not until seven years ago when the eldest twin’s health deteriorated that he was brought back… However, he didn’t come back as the second son of the Luo family; he came back under the identity of his sick older twin brother…”
Qian Qing’s head buzzed when she heard Luo Xiuran’s words. She kept shaking her head. This news was too hard for her to accept.
‘So, there were two Luo Xiuran?’
Finally, she asked with great difficulty, “Don’t you have your own name?”
“No. My father was afraid the world would find out about my existence so he never gave me a name. After Brother died, I finally had a name. My name is Luo
Xiuran.”
Although Luo Xiuran was smiling, he could not hide his bitterness at all.
“Apart from the Luo family, only Yili knows the truth. He’s the only one who could tell me and my brother apart… During the years after I returned to the Luo family, I had to imitate my brother’s personality and the way he spoke.. Even now, my mother would still look at my face and sigh, saying that we look
so similar…”
