A Loyalty
Xiao Feng and Zhao Yuwei were walking on the street.
The stalls were filled with small items used by ordinary people, which won people over with their unique designs and exquisite appearance.
Whenever Xiao Feng saw something that interested Zhao Yuwei, he would directly take out money and buy it.
But Zhao Yuwei had clearly been very happy when they first came down the mountain.
As they spent more time shopping, the smile on Zhao Yuwei's Face grew fewer and fewer, and eventually, she began to become absent-minded.
Xiao Feng asked Zhao Yuwei several times if she liked a certain item, but Zhao Yuwei was clearly lost in thought, so Xiao Feng could only silently pay and buy it.
But after this happened many times, Xiao Feng was clearly also a bit indignant.
What on earth was the matter that Zhao Yuwei was even hiding it from him!
Since when did she stop trusting him so much?
Or did she think that he wouldn't be able to help her solve the matter she encountered?
Xiao Feng tentatively asked Zhao Yuwei, but Zhao Yuwei still didn't answer Xiao Feng's questions like yesterday, dodging the topic.
Even when Xiao Feng pressed her further, Zhao Yuwei simply stopped talking about it.
Xiao Feng promised Zhao Yuwei that no matter what happened to her, he would definitely stand with her.
Zhao Yuwei could confide her troubles to him, just like before.
It was better for the two of them to discuss and solve things together than for Zhao Yuwei to mope around alone here.
Facing these words from Xiao Feng, Zhao Yuwei only looked up at him affectionately.
Just when Xiao Feng thought she would tell him what had happened, Zhao Yuwei lowered her eyelids again and shook her head.
Xiao Feng could completely no longer hold back; he grabbed Zhao Yuwei's wrist and took her directly into a relatively secluded small alley.
Xiao Feng demanded: "What on earth happened? Given our relationship, do you still have to hide this from me? Don't tell me it's nothing; my eyes aren't blind!"
Seeing Xiao Feng so Life Qi, Zhao Yuwei opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she kept her mouth shut and shook her head.
Xiao Feng clearly saw that her eyes were already red and tears were welling up in them, but she was unwilling to say anything no matter what.
Xiao Feng also didn't know what had happened to her.
Zhao Yuwei didn't have any friends in the Ming Cult, so Xiao Feng didn't even know who to ask.
"Did someone in the Ming Cult bully you?" Xiao Feng asked in a low voice.
Zhao Yuwei immediately shook her head.
"Then are you unhappy staying in the Ming Cult?"
Zhao Yuwei still shook her head.
"Then did you encounter some trouble? Did you encounter a Bottleneck in your Cultivate? Or did someone say something gossipy to you?"
Zhao Yuwei didn't move again and finally said softly: "Don't ask anymore, it's really nothing. Just treat it as me being in a bad mood, it will be fine in a couple of days."
Hearing Zhao Yuwei's response, the anger in Xiao Feng's heart burned fiercely.
But looking at Zhao Yuwei's appearance, Xiao Feng couldn't blame her, so he could only pull Zhao Yuwei into his embrace and sigh softly.
"Are you not comfortable living in the Ming Cult? Senior Sister, no one is more important than you. Here, we are the only ones who can rely on each other."
"We can leave the Ming Cult and live elsewhere. I don't want to see you so unhappy. If you are unhappy, my heart hurts very much."
Xiao Feng's sweet words made Zhao Yuwei open her eyes slightly in his arms.
Zhao Yuwei raised her hand, wrapped her arms around Xiao Feng's waist, buried herself in his chest, and began to cry silently.
Xiao Feng just held Zhao Yuwei like that, letting her vent all her suppressed emotions.
After Zhao Yuwei finished crying, Xiao Feng did not continue to ask about the previous matter.
As long as Zhao Yuwei was fine, if she was unwilling to say what she had encountered, Xiao Feng decided to respect her choice.
But they certainly couldn't return to the Ming Cult, nor could they continue to live there.
Xiao Feng planned to take Zhao Yuwei to travel around, which would also help her relax.
But if he wanted to leave, he definitely had to tell Wu Hai and Su Mo in person, as well as Su Xueqing.
Thinking of what happened two days ago, Xiao Feng also needed to tell Su Xueqing about Zhao Yuwei's situation.
Likewise, he also wanted to ask Su Xueqing if she knew about Zhao Yuwei's matter.
Xiao Feng had previously heard those people below discussing Zhao Yuwei in Su Xueqing's courtyard, and their words were not very pleasant.
Xiao Feng was furious on the spot, and Su Xueqing had even directly driven those maids out of the Ming Cult.
But Xiao Feng felt that there were not a few maids who had such thoughts, and there must still be some left in the Ming Cult.
After agreeing with Zhao Yuwei about going out to travel, the two of them directly opened a room at a nearby inn.
The smile on Zhao Yuwei's Face indeed increased a lot.
The two did not return to the inn until evening, and after dinner, Xiao Feng coaxed Zhao Yuwei to sleep.
After confirming that Zhao Yuwei was asleep, Xiao Feng hurriedly left, returned to the Ming Cult, and went directly to find Su Xueqing.
Xiao Feng returned to the Ming Cult alone, moving extremely fast.
In just over ten minutes, he arrived outside Su Xueqing's courtyard.
"You love looking for me in the middle of the night so much, don't tell me you want to..."
Su Xueqing happened to be in the courtyard, and after sensing Xiao Feng's movement, she gave him a charming smile and spoke directly.
However, before Su Xueqing could finish her words, Xiao Feng interrupted: "You should know what I'm here to ask you. Did someone spout nonsense in front of my Senior Sister?"
Su Xueqing blamed Yuan Ruo in her heart.
Although Su Xueqing knew that Yuan Ruo was doing it for her own good and didn't want her to be wronged.
But when she did this, had she not considered that, given how much Xiao Feng cared about Zhao Yuwei, Xiao Feng would come directly to question her?
However, even if Su Xueqing wanted to deny this, she couldn't. She could only look at Xiao Feng apologetically and say directly: "I'm sorry, I didn't restrain the maids under me well."
"Perhaps she did something wrong to Miss Zhao, but I have already disciplined her, and she has promised me that she will never do anything to Miss Zhao again."
Facing such obvious shielding from Su Xueqing, Xiao Feng was unwilling and said directly: "Hand her over; I want to take her to apologize to my Senior Sister."
"What's the use of just a verbal reprimand? She won't learn her lesson at all. Last time you drove away those few maids, and I didn't see them stop discussing this matter. I want to personally punish her."
Of course, Su Xueqing couldn't call Yuan Ruo out.
Yuan Ruo was doing it for her own good, and although the method was wrong, it showed Yuan Ruo's loyalty to her.
Su Xueqing refused directly: "I have already disciplined her. Can't you give me some Face and let this matter go? She didn't harm Miss Zhao; at most, she just said some unpleasant words. Do you have to take her life for you to be satisfied?"
Hearing Su Xueqing say this, Xiao Feng felt even more that Su Xueqing was deliberately shielding that thing who couldn't control her own tongue.
Xiao Feng also kept a cold Face: "Some unpleasant words? I would like to ask exactly how unpleasant they were to make my Senior Sister so distracted and full of sorrow. If she doesn't need her tongue, it can be cut off directly!"
