Chapter 1844: You Still Having Flareups?

Ning Shu sat on the chair and stared at Feng Chang.

Feng Chang noticed Ning Shu’s rather dumb look and asked, “How has your health been lately?

You still having flareups?”

“It’s alright. There hasn’t been that many flareups lately. I’ll probably be fully recovered in just a few more days,” said Ning Shu with a grin.

Feng Chang nodded and put down his teacup. “Do you want to go to your uncle? Since you already know your background, have you ever thought of going back to the Scarlet Flames Nation?”

“This daughter doesn’t know that uncle and this daughter doesn’t know anyone from the Scarlet Flames Nation,” said Ning Shu.

The country was so far away. Even if she wanted to return, she had to wait until the princess mother came to pick her up. If she ran over just like that, she might not even be able to see the emperor uncle’s face.

If she ran over and said that she was the daughter of the eldest princess, people would only treat her as a psycho.

“Father, this daughter wants to stay in the Feng family,” said Ning Shu.

Feng Chang nodded. “If you want to stay, then stay. Visit your mother in your free time and admit your faults. These were originally matters of the inner courtyard, but you came directly to me. You’ve already displeased your mother.”

Ning Shu, of course, knew she was in the wrong. However, Madam Feng didn’t like her. If she had gone to her, Madam Feng would not have spared her any attention. Hence, she had no choice but to come to Feng Chang.

Ning Shu nodded. “This daughter understands.”

Sigh. It would be strange for Madam Feng not to have a knot in her heart. She only hoped that after she left, that princess mother who had disappeared for such a long time in pursuit of love, could reappear and take the original host away.

Madam Feng was the master of the inner courtyard. It would take no effort at all for her to come up with a plan to make someone in the inner courtyard have to suffer in silence.

“Apologize to your mother properly. I’ll also find some time to tell her about your background so that she won’t bother you anymore. Don’t go crazy in the future, and think before you speak. You are currently the daughter of the Feng family. Your every move is related to the family,” said Feng Chang.

Ning Shu nodded. “This daughter will try to be less crazy in the future.”

Feng Chang put down the cup of tea in his hand. “Stay here. Father is going to sleep for a while. We have to go to the palace tomorrow for the Empress Dowager’s birthday. By the way, you are the adopted daughter of Noble Consort Du, so you also have to attend the banquet. Do you have an appropriate dress?”

The frick? Why not mention this earlier? Ning Shu said with a smile on her face, “I don’t, Father.”

The original host really did not have anything nice to wear.

Feng Chang let out an oh. “That’s also right. Your engagement had just been broken off, so it’s better to stay at home. No need to go.”

Ning Shu: …

Then, why even bring it up?

After Feng Chang left, Ning Shu returned to the Orchid Garden and entered her courtyard. Although the blood on the floor had been cleaned, the stench remained in the air.

Ning Shu checked the entire room to make sure there was no one else in the house before sitting on the bed to cultivate.

“Feng Qingqian, what exactly do you want?” Ying Su’s weak voice rang out. An indescribable sense of loss was gnawing at her heart, as if she had missed something incomparably important. This made Ying Su feel extremely uncomfortable.

“Feng Qingqian, we can cooperate. You help me find a body, and I’ll leave. There’s really no point in fighting like this. It will only be a lose-lose situation.” Ying Su calmly negotiated with Ning Shu.

She did not scold Ning Shu anymore.

Ning Shu shot back, “Why should I help you? If I help you, you might retaliate against me. Why should I feed a tiger just for it to come bite me later?”

Ying Su swore, “I, Ying Su, swear to the heavens that as long as you help me find a substitute body, I absolutely will not take revenge on you.”

Ning Shu smiled. She didn’t believe a single word of her oath. Ying Su was from a modern era, where people simply did not believe in heavenly punishment or in the fact that they would face retribution if they went back on their word.

Ying Su wouldn’t even give a second thought to the oath she just took.
