ingxi put down the grapes that were about to reach her mouth and looked at Shen Yun. Was she here to stir up trouble"Lady Yun, what do you mean by that"This concubine only wants to remind Princess Yao...“It's easy to say you prefer the soft touch over a tough one. Remember that time we snuck out to play without telling Mother When she found us, she beat us half to death! Grandpa begged her, but it didn't work. She still went ahead and beat me. My poor backside was red from the beating.”

Feng Siyu retorted, "Mother doesn't eat soft."

She doesn't eat hard food either.

Dugu Cheng watched the siblings argue, completely ignoring his presence. But as he watched them bicker, he suddenly felt envious of Xier. He also pitied her for how she had taken care of them for the past five years. It must have been very difficult.

"Feng Siqi, you interrupted me."

Feng Siyu came to his senses and glared at her, "I haven't finished speaking yet."

Dugu Cheng looked at him, his voice flat, "You continue to ask."

"Do you know who our parents are"

Feng Siyu's question stumped Du Gu Cheng. He looked at Feng Siyu, his heart pounding like a drum in his chest, as if it were about to burst out. Looking into Feng Siyu's eyes, those piercing gaze made him swallow hard.

"We are your children, you must know that."

Dugu Cheng nodded, but Feng Siyu's answer shocked him inwardly.

He never expected this child to admit in front of him that they were all his children. Although he knew, he had never dared to hope they would acknowledge it.

"Do you know why I'm telling you this"

"You can say whatever you want, I'm all ears."

Feng Siyu struggled internally.

"Uncle Tao just told me at dinner that some things can't be missed, then regretted later. Although you don't know we exist, these five years, we haven't appeared either, but after all, we are your children, blood ties can't be changed."

Feng Siyu hesitated for a moment, "I don't want to regret it, because your health is not good. I'm afraid something might happen to you, so there are some things I wanted to tell you but never had the chance. So, I'm going to tell you everything now."

When Dugu City heard this, he wasn't even a bit jealous of Tao Su. In fact, he admired this man very much.

It was he who asked Siyu to come here and tell him these things.

To be honest, I think you and Uncle Tao, Uncle Tao is better because he understands Mom very well. He said a lot, maybe the person in charge is confused, and the bystander is clear. Uncle Tao is really great.

Hearing his son praise him for becoming a man, Dugu City felt uneasy but didn't dare to refute.

Indeed, Tao Su excelled in this aspect, which made him envied. He saw through it clearly.

"If you say that, then your mother can truly be with Tao Su in the future, and you'll be able to accept him."

"If Uncle Tao really wanted to take Mother away, he would have done it already. He said that Mother still cares about you. You're not feeling well, and Mother is worried about you. So, I want to ask you, when are you going to talk things through with my mother and give us an answer"

Feng Siyu finished speaking, then said seriously, "Wait until you make your words clear, and we can consider whether or not to forgive you."

Dugu Cheng lowered his head, with mist swirling in his eyes.

"I don't know if your mother will give me a chance to speak, she is really disappointed in me."

"You know he's utterly disappointed in you, so you should make things clear. You're acting like a lifeless shadow, not only does your mother feel angry looking at you, but even we are furious."

Feng Siyu finished speaking, and regardless of whether Dugu Cheng was happy or not, continued, "Anyway, I've said what I had to say. The rest is up to you."

"Brother, don't you think you're being a little too harsh I don't think Mother would give him a chance to speak."

Feng Siqi looked sympathetically at Dugu City, "You know your mother's opinion of him is very strong."

"Serves him right, who would he blame for leaving his mother and marrying another woman in the first place."

But he said it all was fake.

Feng Siqi, standing on Du Gucheng's side, heard what Du Gucheng said and her voice rose a few notches.

He said that fake is fake, look at him now, maybe this is the retribution for abandoning his mother.

Feng Siyu regretted speaking as soon as the words left his mouth. Dugu Cheng couldn't hold back and started coughing, scaring Feng Siqi who rushed to his side, holding him and soothing him.

"Don't listen to him, he's just a reckless scoundrel who talks without thinking."

Feng Siyu didn't say anything. He was angry, but what he said was also true.

"He's right, it's all my fault. Over the past five years, I have indeed wronged your mother. It's all my fault."

"If you know you're wrong, go find her and apologize. Anyway, you have plenty of opportunities this time back to Beijing. If you don't fight for it yourself, don't blame us when you regret it later."

Du Gucheng responded with a nod, watching Feng Siyu turn and leave. His eyes were filled with dejection.

"Don't listen to him, Siyu might have a harsh tongue, but he has a kind heart. He's only saying these things because he wants to help you."

Dugu Cheng touched Feng Siqi's head, "What about you Don't you hate me"

Feng Siqi shook her head. "No way, Mother said that hating a person is too tiring. She doesn't hate you, so why would I hate you Besides, I don't think you owe me anything. Looking at you now, I feel so sorry for you."

Did Xi'er not hate him

It's not that she doesn't hate him anymore, or maybe it never really was hatred.

Hate, it's also attachment, also forgetting, also disdain.

Aside from longing, forgetfulness, and disdain, those are all possibilities for Xi'er's temperament.

Dugu Cheng let out a light sigh, his eyes full of helplessness.

“Actually, this isn't good for you at all. I think what your brother said is right. You need to find a chance to talk things over with your mother. Keeping things like this up will be very tiring.” Feng Siqi patted Dugu Cheng’s hair. “Your black hair looks really good on you.”

"Am I ugly like this now"

Dugu Cheng's expression tightened, Feng Siqi hurriedly shook her head, "No, I think you look good this way, and besides, this is because of your illness. When you recover, your hair will definitely turn black again. It will be even better then."

Upon hearing this, Dugu City felt a sourness in his heart, an indescribable feeling.

“Thank you, Sizhi. Over the years, you're the only one who could talk to this king like this. Your elder sister Wan’er has always hated me. I once wanted to have a quiet conversation with her too, but she never gave me the chance.”

"Sister Wan'er actually cares about you, perhaps she knows too much, or maybe she's been misled. You can't blame her for that. Besides, you're not her, so you don't know what she's thinking."

Feng Siqi looked at Dugu Cheng seriously, "Next time, I'll tell Wan'er sister about it and let her not be angry with you."

"Thank you, but no need. Wan'er dislikes it when someone praises me in front of her. She thinks I instigate them to do so, which is not good."

"What are we going to do then"

Feng Siqi frowned, "If you don't tell her, Sister Wan'er will still blame you."ver and sat down on the chair, looking at Feng Lingxi, "How did you know this thing is called a bomb""First, tell me, is this drawing yours""No."Du Yue's answer made Feng Ling sigh and wrinkle his bro...
