Chapter 268: Feng Xuan Yu
Before Feng Xuan Yu spoke, Sui Sui thought the seventh brother was the loudest-voiced brother in the residence.
At that moment, when Feng Xuan Yu spoke, his loud voice with its natural reverberation went straight around Sui Sui's ears in a circle.
Sui Sui even felt her ears go a little numb.
How to put it?
Although the distance between them had gotten a little closer, this voice, this transmission...
It felt like if they got any closer, her ears would be shaken into ringing.
Sui Sui was a bit afraid of this brother; she lightly leaned against Father King's shoulder, buried her head, and then sneakily glanced at the two new brothers.
After Feng Xuanze responded with a smile to Feng Xuan Yu, he brought his younger brother over at a quick pace, first offering salutations to Father King and the others.
Feng Xuanze's voice was gentle, his bearing elegant.
Feng Xuan Yu's voice was deep and resonant, his bearing bold and unrestrained.
The two almost spoke at once, but Feng Xuan Yu was not as careless as before; he directly raised his loud voice, though he intentionally lowered his volume while speaking, and secretly glanced at Sui Sui.
After the salutations, Princess Consort of Qi and Ren Ce Fei asked the two children whether they were tired from the journey, whether they were hungry, and if they wanted to go back now to eat.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Prince Qi then smiled and asked a few questions about their studies, after which he gestured for everyone to return to the residence first.
It wouldn't be proper to just start chatting right at the residence gate, would it?
Everyone responded in turn and headed back to the residence one after another.
The carriage arrangements were naturally handled by the servants, so they didn't need to worry.
After Feng Xuanze simply replied to Father King with a few words, he then smiled and looked at Sui Sui, saying, "Is this the adorable Sui Sui?"
Feng Xuanze took the initiative to greet her; Sui Sui hurriedly straightened her back in Father King's embrace and earnestly looked at this brother.
She didn't know how to address him.
However, Feng Xuanze didn't make the child uncomfortable; he soon smiled and gave his self-introduction: "Hello, Sui Sui, I am the elder brother."
Upon hearing that, Sui Sui promptly performed a courteous bow: "Greetings, elder brother, I am Sui Sui."
Seeing that, Feng Xuan Yu hurriedly came over, hehe-laughing and showing his big white teeth: "Hello, Sui Sui, I am the second brother!"
Feng Xuan Yu, afraid of startling people, was speaking with his throat pinched, and he intentionally lowered his voice.
But his deep voice naturally carried a reverberation effect.
Even though he lowered his voice, when it reached Sui Sui's ears it still seemed to carry an echo that lingered for a long time.
This made Sui Sui even more afraid of this second brother; added to his bear-like sturdy physique, he was also quite intimidating.
So, Sui Sui's back wasn't as straight; she instinctively wanted to burrow into Father King's embrace, but fearing that the second brother would see her and get angry, she forced herself to look less panicked and then whispered, "Second... second brother, hello, I am Sui Sui."
The little girl tried to make herself look more normal, but her trembling voice still gave away her emotions.
Feng Xuan Yu didn't understand why his little sister was still afraid of him.
He scratched his head in puzzlement, then asked directly: "Little sister, are you afraid of the second brother? Don't worry, the second brother beats pigs, not people; even if he hits people, he wouldn't hit a young lady!"
Ren Ce Fei: "..."
Her feelings were complicated; she didn't know what to say.
She might as well pretend she hadn't heard it.
As a result, seeing that Sui Sui wasn't speaking also made Feng Xuan Yu anxious; he reached out and pulled Ren Ce Fei over.
He really did grab Ren Ce Fei and, on the way, spun her around once.
Ren Ce Fei: "???"
Watching Mother Consort spin around in front of his eyes, Feng Xuan Yu then realized...
Ah, no, I used too much force—I even spun my own dear mother around!
Feng Xuan Yu is 14 years old this year, basically a half-grown child.
At this moment, realizing he had made a mistake, he hastily withdrew his hand, lowered his head guiltily, and secretly rolled his eyes upward to observe his mother's expression.
Ren Ce Fei was already so angry she had no expression.
What could she do?
She suspected that in her past life she had overturned the heavenly grandfather's grave, so in this life she gave birth to this debt-collector.
Her longing for her son extended only to the greetings at the door.
Any longer and she'd easily be angered to death!
Although forced to spin around, Ren Ce Fei still tried to maintain her elegance, while smiling at Sui Sui and attempting to make up a few sentences for her troublesome son: "Sui Sui, don't be afraid; the second brother just isn't very bright, but he's not a bad person."
Feng Xuan Yu couldn't stand hearing that; he instinctively retorted, "My brain is fine, Mother, don't talk nonsense."
After saying that, Feng Xuan Yu turned his head to look at Sui Sui, hehe-laughing: "Little sister, don't listen to Mother's nonsense; the second brother is smart, and later I'll take you out to play on horseback."
Ren Ce Fei: "?"
Thinking back to the last time her son had taken her horseback riding and she had nearly lost half her soul, Ren Ce Fei's face almost turned green.
Prince Qi also knew his second son's horsemanship, so he quickly laughed and said, "No need for now, no need, the little sister is still small; she can't ride a horse, or she'll wear her legs out."
Hearing that, Feng Xuan Yu still felt a bit disappointed: "Ah, is that so... Well then, I'll wait until the little sister grows up."
To show off his good horsemanship, Feng Xuan Yu also raised his arm.
His thin clothing could hardly conceal Feng Xuan Yu's sturdy muscles.
Especially when his arm bent back, the muscles tensed up, looking like a huge, solid, and intimidating chunk.
Sui Sui looked, feeling both afraid and a little curious.
Can human flesh really become like that?
Sui Sui secretly covered one eye, while the other eye kept moving around to look at the second brother's arm muscles.
Just...
It feels strange, yet also very strong.
I want to see once, then see again.
As I kept watching, Sui Sui's two eyes drifted away.
Ren Ce Fei didn't want her son to be so disgraceful, so she quickly tugged his hem, signaling that it was enough.
Feng Xuanze also feared his recklessness would scare his sister again, and couldn't help but laugh, saying, "Second brother, go wash your hands first; we'll eat later, take it slow, don't scare sister again."
Feng Xuanyi listened well to his elder brother, so he quickly and obediently followed his elder brother to wash his hands.
Everyone finished preparing and took their seats.
Ren Ce Fei rarely ate with everyone today.
As a side consort, she didn't have to be like a concubine who can't even sit at the table during meals, and could only wait aside.
Princess Consort of Qi arranged for her to sit at her right side, together with her two sons, so Ren Ce Fei could feel more at ease.
Sui Sui was naturally in Prince Qi's arms; no one could snatch her away.
Feng Xuanze sat beside Father King, and Feng Xuanrui also missed his elder brother; now he was happily crowded next to his elder brother.
After taking his seat, Feng Xuanze briefly asked a few younger brothers about their studies.
After receiving replies, Feng Xuanze then turned his head toward Sui Sui.
Sui Sui was curious about her elder brother; she thought this elder brother possessed Gentleness, and his speech also carried Gentleness.
He looked overall as if he were a spring Flower, warm and comfortable, and gave a very reassuring feeling.
Sui Sui…
She likes this elder brother.
