TFDC Chapter 126.2


Chapter 126.2 - Undying devotion




His eyes fell on the pastry box as a light passed in his eyes.


He nodded, “Place it over here.”


The housekeeper moved forward and placed it on the desk.


He opened it as a clear fragrance immediately wafted out.


When he took the neatly lined up rows of hibiscus cakes out and put them on a plate, Feng Yege visibly froze.


His originally calm expression became smiling.


But when he thought of the scene at the pleasure boat yesterday, he couldn’t help but ‘hmph’.


But seeing those hibiscus cakes, he reluctantly waved his hands, “Retreat.”


The housekeeper peeked at Feng Yege’s expression and knew that his master was happy.


He immediately answered and left.


Yesterday, his master’s aura was extremely dark and dispirited, so much that the other people in the residence couldn’t take it.


He even spent the whole night marking files so he didn’t dare to disturb him.


Luckily, Miss Lou sent this over so his master was much happier.


The housekeeper was right, Feng Yege’s mood had improved.


Furthermore, he even shocking ate all of the extremely sweet hibiscus cakes.


The moment that Lou Qingwu woke up, Lou Qufeng had already notified her that he wanted to see her.


She washed up and took Lan Bai with her to the main hall.


When she got there, she unexpectedly saw Lou Lianxin and Ruan Zhen there too.


She looked down as she walked towards the centre, bowing to greet Lou Qufeng, “Father.”


“En, Qingwu, you’re here. Come take a seat.”


“... Yes.”


Lou Qingwu looked around before sitting beside Lou Lianxin.


Beside her, Lou Lianxin sat upright and straight, the perfect model for a refined miss.


Furthermore, her dress a fairy-like pink gown, making her small face even more beautiful that it already was.


Noticing her eyes on her, Lou Lianxin even unexpectedly turned to smile at her, warmly and respectfully, “Big sister.”


Lou Qingwu raised a brow as she nodded.


She looked at her, wondering what day it was for everyone to all be here.


Lan Bai still had a bit of trauma from the last time Ruan Zhen schemed against her and tried to break her legs so she watched them vigilantly.


She watched their expressions so she saw Lou Lianxin’s lips curl up arrogantly.


She instantly wondered if they were going to play some sort of game.


But Ruan Zhen didn’t have time to deal with Lou Qingwu and Lan Bai.


Today, she had much more important things to deal with.


Lou Qingwu saw how harmonious Lou Lianxin and Lou Qingwu were together and his mood improved too, “Qingwu, ah, Lian’er previously was too small so if she did anything to wrong her, you’ll have to forgive her. The old saying is right, oldest first and then youngest. You haven’t married so your second sister shouldn’t marry either, but you know, after that affair, Lian’er can’t wait any more. So, the Li family sent out betrothal gifts today. Five days today is a good day so you won’t mind, right?”


Lou Qingwu looked down, hiding her eyes from them as she shook her head, “Your daughter obviously is happy for little sister.”


She was only scared that her good little sister won’t be happy after marrying in.


“Dong!”


Suddenly, the sound of gongs and drums were heard as well as firecrackers.


Lou Qufeng heard this and instantly stood up, “They’ve come, good! Good!”


Lou Qufeng repeated ‘good’ twice, because after all, his second daughter hadn’t even married and they were already like this.


Originally, he was worried that the Li family would break off the engagement, but it was good that in the end, they chose a date for them to marry.


The date was an auspicious one but because it was so soon, everything was simplified.


Lou Lianxin’s small face reddened, the bustling air had infected her mood too.


She suddenly turned to Lou Qingwu, her expression bright as she naively and innocently spoke, “Big sister, ah, when your come-of-age ceremony happens, your little sister might not be able to come. After all, after I marry Jingsheng, it’ll be hard for me to come out. Originally, I wanted to tell you before but who knew that you’ve become close to the third prince recently.”


Lou Qingwu acted as if she didn’t see the mocking and cockiness in her eyes, as she laughed and didn’t reply to her.

TL note:

LLX hasn’t even come of age and is already with Li Jingsheng?? Someone call the popo.

  1. your little -> should be little sister?

    .... wait so she did send those cakes out to FY? I thought it was another dirty trick from the prince or the other girl to drive a wedge between them :o

    I guess I overthought things. ... or FY will get into trouble later, but for now everything seems okay.

    1. That seems uncertain but since FY assumes it was from LQW it doesn't matter. It does raise the question of how much LQW knows about FY's feelings toward her.

    2. Good catch!

      She did because she really loves FY. She'd kill everybody but FY if she could 😢😢

    3. @Morbid Eel is right, everyone assumes its from LQW so even if Ye Ji did poison them, it'd be on LQW.

      (I'd bet on LQW knowing how FY feels about her 😞)

    4. LQW already said she knows about FY's feelings prior to the auction so she definitely knows about his feelings. So that's not really a question :P

      Whether FY knows that LQW is a question, but judging by how carefully he's making sure to be around her, my personal opinion is that he has an inkling that she knows and is avoiding her feelings so he's just letting her decide what she wants to do.

    1. The more accurate term would probably be 'dowry' because it's LLX's side that's more interesting.

      The Li family did do an appropriate pre-wedding procession for their betrothal gifts though πŸ’•
