585: Pathetic Han Feng II

Pathetic Han Feng II

Suyi was quiet for a while. "I don't know. But, I can learn how to do that."1

"Alright. Then, I can have some snacks when we go out."

'Snacks?'

Feng Ruqing's face darkened.

'This girl treats the spirit herbs as main food and the villains as snacks.'

"Qing'er, don't worry. I'll look after Little Qing Han for you." Suyi smiled. "Then, I'll bring her back to you without a scratch on her."

Feng Ruqing was speechless.

'I'm not worried about Qing Han but I'm worried about the others!'

"Mother." Qing Han threw herself into Feng Ruqing's embrace. She felt that she was wronged. "I have never been outside with Brother Fu Chen. Let me go out and take a look."

Feng Ruqing lowered her eyes. She gazed upon the tears in Qing Han's eyes. Her heart softened. "Then, you should listen to Grandma Suyi. Don't go anywhere else and don't eat anything before thinking."

"Yes, Mother."

Qing Han stopped crying and started to smile when Feng Ruqing finally gave her consent. Feng Ruqing could not stop herself from pinching Qing Han's cute face. "Quickly, be on your way now."

Qing Han kissed Feng Ruqing's cheek. Then, she let go of her hands and ran toward Suyi in small strides. She held Suyi's hand and walked out of the princess's manor with a bright smile. 

"Mother."

Fu Chen appeared out of nowhere after Suyi left. He bit his lip and seemed stubborn. 

"Why didn't you come out just now? Do you want to go out with them?" Feng Ruqing asked as she bent down and stroked Fu Chen's small face. 

Fu Chen shook his head. "I don't want to go, Mother. In the future...will you abandon us like the Ninth Emperor?"

Feng Ruqing's fingers trembled.

She looked at Fu Chen's small and pale face. She was sad. "I'm not sure… maybe not."

Fu Chen tugged at her sleeves and his grip tightened. He lowered his eyes slowly.

"Is it because I was too stingy before and you want to leave us behind?"

"Fu Chen…"

Humans were not like trees and flowers. Humans had feelings.

She had spent quite a long time with those two spirit herbs and they had quite a strong bond between them. 

'If…

'If I am faced with danger again in the future, I would never burden them.'

"Fu Chen, I promise you that I will become stronger. I'll never leave you when I become stronger."

There was a pathetic smile on Fu Chen's face. "But, the Ninth Emperor was so strong and still, he left us behind."

There was only Small Black who was their family member in the lonely Divine Herbs Sect other than the Ninth Emperor.

The Ninth Emperor had been with them for so long.

'But, he left!'

That day, he promised that he would return and look after them after he had rescued his lover.

Who would have thought that he would never return!

"Mother, Qing Han and I are not as timid as you think. We are afraid of nothing. We're just scared that we will be left behind again…" Fu Chen raised his head.

His small face was covered in tears and Feng Ruqing did not know when that had happened.

His small face was pale and filled with grief.

'I'm not afraid of anything.

'I'm just afraid that I will be left behind again!'

"Mother…" Fu Chen held onto her sleeves tightly. "Qing Han and I are neither humans nor spirit beasts. But, we have spiritual wisdom now. We feel pain and fear too. Qing Han is always there. I'm afraid that she will cry so I do not look for you. In the future, please don't leave us behind. We'll face the danger with you no matter how dangerous it is."
