Безопасность - Глава 164
His generosity and righteousness are truly moving.
The soldiers guarding the city returned to their posts and watched as Young Master Feng and Young Master Ling rode out of the city one after the other. They secretly thought that the two darlings had finally calmed down, and thankfully, no Regent's personal guards had come to inspect them while they were neglecting their duties, otherwise… Thinking about it, a wave of fear washed over them.
Meanwhile, Young Master Feng and Young Master Ling stormed out of the city and ran north for three or four miles until they reached a wide open area surrounded by green trees. With no pursuers behind them, the two stopped.
"I wonder what kind of fury the Regent will unleash when we return," Feng Feisheng said, stopping his horse and looking up with a smile.
Ling Jiuyan chuckled, "Are you afraid of the Regent too?" Feng Feisheng shrugged, "Who told him to have such a cold face for a thousand years? But I'm only giving him some face. Actually, who's afraid of who?"
Ling Jiuyan glanced at him sideways: "Yes, you're not afraid of him. He's just wary of you."
"Hehe." Feng Feisheng chuckled, turning to look around. "Huh? Where did they go? Could they have been so inconsiderate as to leave on their own?"
Upon hearing his words, Ling Jiuyan immediately became nervous: "Really?" Although she said no, her brows furrowed, and she looked worried.
Seeing her worried expression, Feng Feisheng laughed and said, "I was just joking. You took it seriously, Ninth Prince. It seems you really can't bear to part with that guy. In that case, why not keep him here?"
“If I could have stayed, I would have done so long ago. Why resort to such a desperate measure? Besides, why single me out? You've done the same…” Ling Jiuyan felt slightly relieved after hearing his words and was about to retort when she saw Feng Feisheng wink at her. Ling Jiuyan quickly shut her mouth. Feng Feisheng smiled and said, “Brother Chu, you should at least come out and thank us. We've been waiting here for ages.”
No sooner had the words left his mouth than faint footsteps were heard. They came from the forest, and someone slowly emerged, saying, "Your Highness knew I was here all along, so why did you have to make those sarcastic remarks?"
A tall, slender figure appeared before Feng Feisheng and Ling Jiuyan, carrying a person wrapped up very tightly in his arms. It was Chu Gexing and Tang Leyan.
Upon seeing Chu Gexing appear, Ling Jiuyan immediately leaped off her horse and strode two steps toward him.
Feng Feisheng chuckled and jumped off his horse as well.
Chu Gexing looked at the two of them, then slowly bowed his head: "Chu Gexing thanks you both for your help."
Feng Feisheng waved his hand: "Hey, don't be so polite. Just remember our great kindness and repay us with your body in the future."
Chu Gexing glanced at him but didn't reply.
Ling Jiuyan gazed at him, her eyes filled with deep affection, yet she didn't know what to say. Her heart ached terribly. The person she longed for day and night was right before her eyes. Heaven had finally taken pity on her and sent him to her side, but now he was leaving like the wind. From now on, her heart would never find peace. She would long for him day and night, but it was clear that he was someone she could hope for but could never have.
Chu Gexing gazed at her silently for a moment before saying, "This parting is our last, and I don't know when we'll meet again, Ninth Prince. Take care."
Upon hearing his simple words, Ling Jiuyan's eyes instantly welled up with tears. She had been strong since childhood and dressed as a boy, rarely shedding tears. But when she saw him, she often couldn't help but become more vulnerable than her most fragile daughter.
Feng Feisheng watched from the side and gently patted her shoulder.
Ling Jiuyan turned her head to wipe her tears, and Feng Feisheng stepped forward: "You, you..."
Looking at Chu Gexing, he simply shook his head.
"What's wrong?" Chu Gexing turned his head away, not looking at Ling Jiuyan, and asked indifferently.
Feng Feisheng looked at him and said, "Fine, everyone has their own ambitions, and we can't force them. However, I'm warning you, Jiu Jun is a one-of-a-kind woman in the world. If you miss this opportunity, you might regret it later."
Hearing him say this, Chu Gexing said softly, "Perhaps Gexing is not fortunate enough to have this blessing."
Hearing this from the side, Ling Jiuyan felt a deep sorrow in her heart. She could no longer hold back. She knew that for someone as proud as him to say this, he was already being very considerate of her feelings. It was a way of expressing his gratitude to her, which was why he had uttered such comforting words. Overwhelmed with emotions, she wanted to grab his sleeve and cry her heart out, but she couldn't. She wanted to look at him a few more times, so that she could remember him in the future, but she was afraid that she would burst into tears on the spot. So she suppressed her grief and said in a trembling voice, "Your journey is long and arduous. Gexing, you must take care of yourself. If there is a chance in the future..." She stopped herself from saying anything more, and finally turned around and strode to the side.
Feng Feisheng looked at her retreating figure with great pity.
He then asked Chu Gexing in a low voice, "When you see her like this, don't you feel anything at all?"
Chu Gexing silently looked at the person in his arms: "If you hadn't provoked her, you wouldn't have made her suffer so much."
"So you knew she was hurting inside." Feng Feisheng raised an eyebrow.
"I'm not made of stone either," Chu Gexing said calmly.
Feng Feisheng looked at him, then at the person in his arms, and asked, "Where is she?"
Chu Gexing said, "Leaving the city just now was dangerous. I was afraid she would be frightened and something bad might happen, so I sealed her sleeping acupoints first."
Feng Feisheng looked distressed: "Can you untie it?"
Chu Gexing looked at him: "Why?"
Feng Feisheng gritted his teeth and said, "Say goodbye, boss. You have to give us lovers a chance and space to say goodbye, right?"
Chu Gexing snorted coldly: "Young Master Feng is quite the romantic. Was he reincarnated from a love-sick bean in his past life?"
"You did this on purpose, didn't you?" Feng Feisheng looked at him. "You're jealous!"
Chu Gexing raised an eyebrow: "Hmm... just think of it as me being jealous."
Feng Feisheng was furious with him: "Quickly release her pressure points so that I can say a heartfelt goodbye."
Chu Gexing chuckled: "Impossible, Your Highness, you should save your breath."
Feng Fei was about to explode with anger. Looking at Chu Gexing's expression, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she smiled and said, "Oh, how did you know about the time I kissed her last time?"
Chu Gexing was taken aback: "What did you say?"
Feng Feisheng said smugly, "When I went to see her last time, we sealed our love with a kiss. How about that?"
Chu Gexing frowned and remained silent.
Feng Feisheng smacked his lips: "It's fragrant, soft, and sweet. It's an unforgettable taste. What, you're envious of this, aren't you?"
Chu Gexing looked at him and said calmly, "Speaking of this... I kissed her countless times back in Shun, and even went further. --- Does Your Highness want to hear about the experience and the taste of it all?"
This time, it was Feng Feisheng's turn to be stunned.
If Tang Leyan were awake, she would definitely be furious with these two.
Little Phoenix is very arrogant.
Is Chu Ge alright...? I really can't find the words to describe him.
Waving goodbye, Chapter 215: A Smile and Gone
In this round, Feng Feisheng provoked Chu Gexing, and Feng Feisheng lost.
Chu Gexing didn't give him any chance to retaliate. After speaking, he took his leave.
Feng Feisheng glared at those burning peach blossom eyes with hatred, thinking angrily in his heart: Very well, so you've decided to get involved in this mess?
Chu Gexing smiled sweetly, her face as beautiful as a peach blossom, truly captivating.
Feng Feisheng was momentarily dazed, and was about to call Ling Jiuyan to admire the beautiful scenery when he saw Chu Gexing carrying Tang Leyan and leaping into the air. By the time he came to his senses, the man was already sitting on the horse he had been riding, smiling and saying, "Young Master, we'll meet again in the martial world."
“You’re not only despicable, but also incredibly audacious, daring to openly hijack my mount,” Feng Feisheng stepped forward to block the horse. “I’m warning you seriously, unless you awaken Leyan and let me say a few words to her, otherwise… hmph, you’ll be in big trouble.”
"When she wakes up, I will convey the Crown Prince's heartfelt farewell and... also the gift of the horse." Chu Gexing embraced the crowd with one arm and held the reins with the other. "Farewell, Crown Prince!"
The horse turned its head and headed in the other direction.
Ling Jiuyan suddenly turned around, and Chu Gexing glanced at her briefly.
Ling Jiuyan took three or four steps forward. Chu Gexing hesitated for a moment, holding the reins, but ultimately said nothing. Under her deep gaze, he spurred his horse and galloped away.
"The Song of Chu!"
Feng Feisheng remained rooted to the spot, frowning and stamping his feet, cursing angrily.
Two people, one horse. Ling Jiuyan and Feng Feisheng walked silently beside the horse, unlike Chu Gexing and Tang Leyan who rode together.
Ling Jiuyan remained silent, looking melancholy.
Feng Feisheng naturally knew why she was doing this.
But there was no way to comfort him; deep down, there was also buried pain.
Recalling Chu Gexing's threatening words, this lecherous man, who usually pretended to be so nonchalant, turned out to be even more lecherous than himself. "Gentleman's Hall"
What do you mean by "there are even further actions to take"? Kill him!
But then I thought about it again. The way things were just now was clearly a contest between the two of them to see who was more ruthless. Anyway, I didn't know much about Chu Gexing's past. Maybe he was just bragging. Besides, given Tang Leyan's personality, why would she let him get away with it so easily?
It's probably just that Chu Gexing is jealous of him. So he's just bragging for a moment.
Thinking of this, Feng Feisheng felt a little more at ease.
Tong Ling Jiuyan walked silently for half the distance, each lost in their own thoughts.
"I was quite surprised that you sent them off like that."
Feng Feisheng looked at her: "Hmm, what else?"
"I thought..."
“Ha,” Feng Feisheng chuckled, “Ninth Lord, I advise you, don’t do things that you know are futile.” Ling Jiuyan frowned: “What do you mean?”
Feng Feisheng, holding the horse's reins in one hand, turned his head, his eyes bright, and looked at Ling Jiuyan: "It is unwise to vent your resentment on others because you cannot have them."
Ling Jiuyan's shoulders trembled: "What...did you say?"
Feng Feisheng said, "Chu Gexing is no ordinary person. Do you think you can hide the things you've done from his eyes?"
Ling Jiuyan remained silent, but a cold smile appeared on her face: "You mean to say that he really likes her?"
Feng Feisheng said, "Right now, I'm not sure. I just hope that what you're doing won't wake him up and make him realize what he's thinking."
Ling Jiuyan stopped in her tracks: "Feng Feisheng!"
Feng Feisheng looked at her and said, "Ninth Prince, you have misunderstood Leyan. The person Leyan loves is not Chu Gexing. She loves someone else in her heart. She told me this, and Chu Gexing knows it too."
Ling Jiuyan's expression changed drastically, and she abruptly took two steps back: "What did you say?"
Feng Feisheng chuckled: "Indeed, jealousy lowers a woman's IQ. Ninth Prince, you've been blinded by love. As far as I know, Chu Gexing hasn't developed any real feelings for her yet, and you... you mustn't make things worse and let him realize his mistake."
Ling Jiuyan's expression changed repeatedly. Her eyes looked in the direction where Chu Gexing had ridden away on horseback, then turned back to look at Fengcheng, as if she was thinking about something and making a decision.
“You don’t need to worry anymore. As the saying goes, what’s done is done,” Feng Feisheng laughed, looking up. “There’s a destiny at play. If fate has truly ordained that each of us must walk this difficult path, no one can resist it. Ninth Prince, you’re just following your own heart, but…”
"But what?" Ling Jiuyan stared at him blankly and asked.
Feng Feisheng shook his head: "It's nothing."
“I know,” Ling Jiuyan suddenly sneered, “you’re afraid I’ll really hurt her, aren’t you?”
Feng Feisheng lowered his eyes: "Actually, I'm not worried."
"Um?"
"As long as Chu Gexing is alive, you absolutely cannot hurt her."
"You knew I was going to do something, yet you didn't stop me?"
"To be honest, I only realized it when I was inside the city."
"...Feng Feisheng".
"Ninth Prince, are you worried again?"
