He was in no way inferior to the second-ranked man on the list of beautiful men, Yun Qianche.
Since the Feng Family had caused the trouble, naturally, they had to bear the responsibility.
The Yun Family’s requirements were not excessive. As long as one of the Feng Family’s daughters married over to counteract their bad luck, they would let the grudge pass.
However, everyone knew well that the idiot wouldn’t live for long. Once they married over, they would most likely end up as a widow.
Therefore, who would be willing to marry him, not to mention the two ladies of the Feng Family who had lived a life of luxury?
Feng Qianxue was summoned by Feng Chaoyang. The moment she entered, she saw Feng Chaoyang looking at her anxiously.
“Xue’er… Do help to save our Feng Family…”
“Father, what’s the matter?”
“It’s practically impossible for that wastrel to marry that idiot right now. Moreover, your young sister, Wan’er, has ended up in that plight. You are the only one suitable to marry into the Yun Family…”
Having heard what he said, Feng Qianxue took a few steps back in shock.
“Father, you said it yourself: you wouldn’t make me marry him…”
“But I’m at my wit’s end… You are the only suitable person right now. You must’ve also heard that the Yun Family insists for the marriage to happen tomorrow.” Feng Chaoyang was filled with helplessness. “I have no other choice. Our Feng Family can’t afford to offend the Yun Family.”
“No way, I won’t marry.” Feng Qianxue shook her head. “Father, just let that wastrel marry him. Isn’t she fine and in perfect condition? Why don’t you get that wastrel to marry him instead?”
“I’ve fallen out with her to such an extent, how could she agree to listen to my orders?”
Feng Qianxue touched her face.
There were still some leftover scars.
Ever since that day, her face felt inexplicably itchy. Fortunately, she resisted the urges and was not completely disfigured.
Even though she did not know the specific root cause of her itchiness, she knew that it was definitely related to Feng Chuge, that good-for-nothing!
When she thought of this, her eyes suddenly revealed a malicious glint. “Father, who’s to say it’s only possible if she’s willing? Don’t we have a Beginner Alchemist in our family? We’ll get some hard-to detoxify medicine, let her consume it, force her into the marriage, else we won’t provide her the antidote. Or… We can simply drug her then throw her into the ceremony?”
The more she came up with ideas, the more evil her smile was.
These methods were inappropriate, but there were no better ways.
Feng Chaoyang pondered for a moment before he agreed in the end. “Alright, we’ll go with this.”
Luzhu was holding back all traces of her aura outside the door as she listened to their conversation from outside.
The moment she heard mention of a Beginner Alchemist, she sneered.
Just a mere Beginner Alchemist, and they think they can deal with my Miss?
Dream on!!
When Feng Qianxue was about to leave, Luzhu immediately left with a flash.
It was around noon time when the Yun Family had finally left, seemingly having settled with an appropriate agreement.
The Feng Residence was once again engulfed in a ruckus.
Red lanterns and red silk were hung high up around the estate, and it really appeared as if they were about to marry off their daughter.
Regardless of anything, they had to do something for the outsiders to see. Otherwise, they would reveal a weakness that could be taken advantage of.
There were many people in the Feng Residence. In a mere half a day’s time, all preparations were complete.
The skies had also gradually darkened.
In the evening, just as the skies were about to be completely submerged in darkness, a big fire suddenly broke out outside Linshui Pavilion.
The fire broke out in an extremely aggressive manner, and it seemed as if it was about to spread.
For a moment, the Feng Residence was in a state of panic.
