Chapter 888: Why?

..I'm sorry, servant girl did not mean to laugh at you.""Don't worry about it, Hong'er and Ning'er, you two go eat something. I'll chat with Duo'er for a bit."Hong'er and Ning'er curtsied. "Yes,"After...Just as the two stood frozen, at a loss for words, Feng Ming walked in with an expressionless face.

Ning'er came back to her senses and immediately got up from the bed, her movements a little hurried, almost pulling at her wound.

Yunliu looked at her, almost unable to resist rushing forward to help her up. But seeing Feng Ming standing there, his hands clenched slightly, he dared not act rashly.

Feng Ming's cold eyes swept over the two of them, "Ning'er, do you have anything to explain"

Ning'er's face turned pale. Hearing Feng Ming's question, she immediately knelt down and said, "Valley Master, Ning'er knows she was wrong."

"...."

Yunliu furrowed her brows, why was she apologizing They hadn't truly done anything to each other yet, why was she apologizing!

Thinking of this, Yun Liu's brain whirred. Before the phoenix could cry out, he suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Ning'er, what have you done wrong"

Neither Ning'er nor Fengming spoke. Just then, An Xuetang's voice sounded a little anxiously from the courtyard, "Yunliu, is there something wrong with Ning'er You just need to send some medicine, it shouldn't take half an incense stick"

"! "

Yun Liu's pupils dilated. He hadn't even been here for half an hour, what did the Princess want

If she said that, wouldn't this young master Feng misunderstand even more

Thinking about this, Yunliu felt a chill run down her spine. Wasn't the princess today just the 'useless teammate' she often talked about

Listening to An Xuetang's words, Feng Ming thoughtfully glanced at Yunliu's hand. He was indeed holding a bowl there.

Feng Ming turned his head and continued to look at Ning'er's expressionless face.

As soon as An Xuetang entered, she saw Ning'er kneeling on the ground. Her brows furrowed, and she quickly ran over, "What's going on Ning'er, your injuries aren't healed yet, why are you kneeling on the ground like this"

As she spoke, An Xuetang had already walked to Ninger's side, wanting to help her up, but Ninger shook her head slightly at her. "Your Highness, it was Ninger who made a mistake. Ninger is willing to accept punishment."

An Xuetang knew what was going on, but she still sounded confused, "Make a mistake You're still injured and haven't left the house these days. What kind of mistake could you have made"

Although Ning'er's abdominal wound had improved a lot, it still hadn't fully healed. An Xue Tang felt sorry for her and gently helped her up at this moment.

Ninger raised her eyes to look at Fengming. Though her face looked calm, her heart was unusually uneasy. She couldn't tell what Fengming meant or whether he had misunderstood her.

An Xue Tang helped Ning'er up, then she looked at Yun Liu, "What happened, Yun Liu Did you do something I only asked you to bring Ning'er some medicine. Did you cause trouble"

When Yunliu said this, An Xuetang winked at Yunliu from an angle where Fengming couldn't see.

At first, Yunliu was a bit confused and didn't quite understand what was going on.

An Xuetang saw his expression and her heart ached. This guy was so clumsy at a critical moment.

She could only mouth two words in the end: entanglement.

Yun Liu finally reacted, he raised his hand and scratched the back of his head, somewhat awkwardly said to An Xue Tang:

"Your Highness, I don't think I did anything wrong. I just wanted to tell Ning'er that I have feelings for her. I asked a matchmaker before, but she refused. These days, she has been cold towards me, so I... I just wanted to know why, so I asked a few more questions here."

When she heard him say he had feelings for her, a strange emotion flickered in Ning'er's heart. However, at this moment, she still seemed like someone without a heart or emotions. Regardless of what he said, her expression never changed.

An Xuetang frowned, her voice a bit cold, "So you've been bothering Ninger"

Yunliu quickly shook his head and denied, "Your Highness's words might be a bit inappropriate. This subordinate... this subordinate couldn't possibly be considered as pestering."

"Yes, you're not being clingy, you're just persistent."

"!"

Yun Liu awkwardly cleared his throat. He still wanted to say something, but An Xue Tang didn't give him the chance:

"Yunliu, matters of the heart shouldn't be forced. Since Ninger doesn't want to discuss this with you, don't press her further. Otherwise, if you two keep running into each other, it'll be awkward, won't it"

Yunliu pursed his lips. Although An Xue Tang was accusing him, he still wore a shameless smile, looking very righteous and unapologetic about what he had done.

He gave Ning'er a deep look and then said, "My lady, didn't you tell me When a man pursues a woman, he has to be persistent. In any case, I won't give up. Since Ning'er didn't give me an answer today, I'll ask again another day. I believe that one day, Ning'er will be moved by my sincerity."

“......”

The three present looked at him speechless. He was being rather unreasonable.

But Yunliu didn't care whether they could accept it or not. After finishing his words, he cleared his throat and looked at Ning'er with deep affection, saying:

"Ninger, it's okay if you don't agree today. Maybe my excellence hasn't caught your eye yet. I'll work hard for the next few days and one day I'll definitely move you."

"..."

After Yunliu finished speaking, he swaggered away.

Ninger remained expressionless throughout, as if Yunliu's words were irrelevant to her.

And An Xuetang was speechless. She trembled slightly, pointing at Yun Liu's back, then glanced at Ning'er, "This Yun Liu, after spending so many days together, how come I didn't know he was such a scoundrel."

As they spoke, she patted Ning'er's hand and suddenly said in a grave voice:

"Ning'er, although you don't want to marry Yunliu, there's something I still want to tell you. Don't look at Yunliu's carefree demeanor on the surface, he's actually a good person. If you can be with him, I'll feel more at ease."

Ninger's lips twitched, wanting to say something instinctively. But the ever-silent Feng Ming spoke before her, "Is Atang trying to steal the matchmaker's business"

An Xuetang glared at him speechless, "Brother, what are you saying Ning'er is mine. I just hope she can find someone reliable and who truly cares for her. Otherwise, do you think I'd be willing to play matchmaker"

Feng Ming looked at her with an indifferent expression, his voice a bit cold, "Since you don't want to be a matchmaker, then don't meddle in these idle affairs. Those four girls are not suitable for marriage."

"... "

An Xue Tang was taken aback. She hadn't expected Feng Ming to be so direct. She had originally planned to appeal to him emotionally and logically over these past few days, persuading him not to worry about the marriages of the four maidservants, Fu Shou Kang Ning.

It seems that Feng Ming has gotten his way and doesn't seem willing to budge.

What is he up to can't handle one woman"The Empress had long wanted to harm An Xuetang, but previously the Emperor had already turned the page on the matter of An Xuetang harming the Third Princess in the main hall....
