Su Li’s smile deepened as her fingers slid across the sofa. She chuckled softly and said, "According to your aning, if I marry into the Feng Family, my life will be in danger?"
"I know that Madam Feng was once connected to the Xuan Sect, but she interfered and ruined your connection with Uncle Mo Yu."
Sheng Lanqing looked at Su Li, sowhat anxious, "It’s not just because she shattered my relationship with Mo Yu, but because she betrayed the whole Xuan Sect. She’s in cahoots with the arch-enemies of the Xuan Sect!"
"Every Holy Daughter of the Xuan Sect has a Guardian who protects her with their life. Do you think there’s a reason for this? Would your mother deceive you?"
Su Li’s expression slightly changed, thinking of Mo Si Huang.
"If you marry into the family, you beco her daughter-in-law. It’s like sending a lamb into a tiger’s den!" Sheng Lanqing grew more frightened just by thinking about it, her face turning stark white, "Recently, I was attacked in M Country; soone almost gouged my eyes out!"
Mo Yu’s eyes, cold as Ruyue, showed rare gentleness as he looked at Su Li, yet his tone was incredibly calm, "Did your sister Ji Xuewei ever tell you your fortune? She probably warned you about the great calamity in your future."
Su Li felt a slight shock in her heart, suddenly becoming a bit uneasy.
"That’s why I interrupted your engagent at the feast!"
Su Li’s clear voice followed swiftly, "Feng Huaijin will protect , and I can protect myself."
Just because soone choked while eating, does it an everyone should stop eating?
She understood one thing... No matter how frightening the Feng Family is, no matter how it’s a dragon’s lair or a tiger’s den, Feng Huaijin is not dangerous. He will be her only safe haven in the future.
Besides... They also have Tuanzi.
Sheng Lanqing and several elders listened to Su Li’s firm voice, exchanging glances, montarily unsure of what to say.

Feng Huaijin sat on a small sofa in the bedroom, watching the clock. Ti passed by minute by minute.
Soon the butler ca to report, Young Master Tuanzi had already fallen asleep.
Feng Huaijin saw it was already midnight, yet there were no signs that the conversation downstairs would end.
The butler, showing concern, said, "Young Master Sun, perhaps you should rest first."
Feng Huaijin waved his hand, stood, and walked toward the study.
He couldn’t sleep; he must wait for Su Li to return.
Feng Huaijin sat at the study’s desk, opened the computer to handle company docunts, to keep himself awake.
[Xiao Heng: Brother Qi, I’ve sent you the draft of the video from your engagent feast with Seventh Sister-in-law. Would you like to view it?]
This engagent feast invited internationally renowned photographers to capture the entire event.
Feng Huaijin nodded, watched the engagent feast video on the computer. Su Li wore a silver-white little dress, walked to his side, smiling charmingly.
The hour hand on the clock moved quietly, and Feng Huaijin gradually felt sleepy, but didn’t want to drink coffee to avoid the bitter taste.
"Knock, knock," the butler entered and brought a cup of herbal tea.
The aroma of the herbal tea was very refreshing, prompting Feng Huaijin to take a sip.
The butler nodded in satisfaction, knowing this Young Master Sun’s kidney was not well; staying up late for business matters would be one thing, but what about staying up late watching the engagent feast video?
If he stayed up late again, his kidneys would only worsen!
So the worried butler put so sleep-inducing ingredients in the herbal tea.
After waiting a while, servants prepared to see several visiting elders out.
Su Li stretched lazily as she climbed the stairs, glanced into Feng Huaijin’s bedroom, finding it empty.
Only Tuanzi was in Tuanzi’s room, not him.
Su Li felt puzzled, pushed the door to the study, finding Feng Huaijin slumped over the desk.
Su Li: "...Weren’t you supposed to wait for ?"
