th on your father. This would affect his recovery.""Then how could Mother bear to let Xi'er shoulder these burdens"After Dugu City's words fell, Shu Fei's face sank. Feng Lingxi tugged at his sleeve,...In the thirty-sixth year of Yuanxing, on the fifteenth day of April
A woman's cries for help echoed from a dilapidated temple on the outskirts of town.
As streaks of lightning flashed across the sky, a young girl could be vaguely seen inside the dilapidated temple, surrounded by several ragged beggars. The girl was terrified, clutching at her torn clothes. Her beautiful face flushed with an unnatural redness as several places on her body had already been ripped apart.
"Stop, don't come any closer."
Her weak, lonely, and helpless eyes fueled the excitement in the beggars' eyes. Some had even begun to untie their clothes, eager to take possession of the young girl before them.
"Guys, this is the Fourth Miss of the Feng family. Don't underestimate her just because she seems simple, she's actually quite beautiful. She's truly worthy of being the number one beauty in our capital city. The eldest lady said that whoever becomes her first man will receive a reward of ten taels of silver!"
Hearing about the ten taels of silver, the beggars could no longer contain themselves. One by one, they rushed towards the girl, tearing at her clothes.
The young girl couldn't dodge in time and was pushed to the ground, hitting her head against the pillar behind her with a dull thud. She groaned and fainted.
"Why aren't you moving"
A bold beggar reached out and touched the girl's nose, suddenly his face turned pale with fear, he stammered, "Oh no, she's dead."
What can we do No matter what, she's still the Fourth Miss of the Feng family. The eldest lady didn't say she wanted to kill her...
The beggars glanced at each other, dropped the body, and scattered.
The next second, the girl suddenly opened her eyes, and her sharp eyes flashed with a cold light.
Feng Lingxi sat up, her head aching terribly. Her last memory was of the plane exploding. Wasn't she dead How could she be here
She lowered her head and glanced at herself, her face changing drastically. Memories that didn't belong to her flooded her mind one after another.
The owner of this body is also named Feng Lingxi, the fourth young lady of the Feng family. She has three elder sisters and three younger brothers above and below her. Her father is the national protector general, and her mother is the wife of General Feng Mingmei Zhengmu (a marriage arranged by both families with mutual consent).
Though she was the legitimate daughter and had the title of the first beauty in the capital, she suffered from a high fever at the age of four that damaged her brain, leaving her foolish and naive. She was neglected and bullied as a result.
Just moments ago, she was tricked by her elder sister to this rundown temple, told there was something for her. What she got instead was a group of smelly, stinking beggars.
Feng Lingxi raised an eyebrow, looking at his current disheveled appearance. She reached out and touched the throbbing pain in the back of her head. It was bleeding
Let's take a look at the bloodstains on the pillar behind. It seems like the original owner was drugged to death.
It's no wonder that all the beggars ran away, not one left. Compared to money, they couldn't afford the charge of murdering Miss Feng's fourth daughter.
"I never expected I, Feng Lingxi, to be able to live another life."
After tearing a piece of cloth from her body to bandage the wound, Feng Lingxi suddenly felt a strange sensation, a surge of unusual heat that left her drenched in cold sweat.
In my memory, the ginseng chicken soup that the elder sister served her during dinner must have been a scheme. She was being plotted against.
Damn it!
Feng Lingxi swayed unsteadily as she left the dilapidated temple, her consciousness gradually fading.
She must find a man to antidote her as quickly as possible, or else the poison will take hold and she'll die here. Wouldn't it be a shame to waste the opportunity of a second life
As she stepped into the forest along the path, Feng Lingxi's discomfort intensified. Her mind was filled with thoughts of the man, and her steps through the trees grew slower and slower.
Just as she was about to collapse from exhaustion, a sudden sound of horses' hooves came from the front, followed by a heavy thud.
Feng Lingxi sniffed the bloody air, her eyes gleaming with excitement. Someone was here. Under the moonlight, she saw that it was still a man.
Feng Lingxi steadied her footing and walked over. She saw a man lying on the ground, his features exceptionally delicate, as if painted by a master artist. His wheat-colored skin, sword-like eyebrows, and thin lips pressed together revealed an air of nobility. His tightly closed eyes were furrowed in pain, his left hand clutching a shocking wound on his right arm.
"That's him." So handsome, not a waste of time at all.
Feng Lingxi gritted her teeth, enduring the discomfort in her body, and quickly treated the man's wounds. But the next second, when she touched his body, a surge of blood rushed to her head, leaving only one voice in her mind: take him off.
"Ouch…" the man cried out in pain.
"Presumptuous!"
A chilling voice entered his ears, Feng Ling Xi was startled, and immediately became even more excited.
"You're badly hurt, I advise you not to move, be good."
"Shameless!"
Looking at the girl in front of him, then at his own clothes, the man's handsome face turned grim and terrifying, "You dare..."
Before he could finish speaking, Feng Lingxi couldn't control the drug's effects anymore and rushed forward...
A fierce battle, utterly exhausted.
After everything was done, Feng Lingxi looked at the unconscious man, put on his clothes, and a slight smile appeared on her lips, "Seeing that you helped me with the antidote, I'll save your life. From now on, we owe each other nothing."
In modern times, she is a medical doctor. At under twenty years old, she has already climbed the Forbes Celebrity List. She possesses astonishing medical skills, especially in detoxification and poison creation. She claims to be second best, and no one dares to say they are first.
This man's wounds on his arms, she immediately knew were caused by poison. Although she had given him a simple treatment just now, if left untreated, he was afraid he wouldn't make it till tomorrow.
Feng Lingxi found some herbs in the woods, crushed them, and applied them to the man. Seeing the man's complexion gradually improve, Feng Lingxi patted her hands and left.
If this man wakes up in a while, she’ll be in trouble. He might think she took advantage of him and attack her.
Not far ahead, Feng Lingxi saw a small pond and thought that under the moonlight with no one around, she could wash herself clean. After bandaging her head wound, she took advantage of the darkness to sneak back to the general's mansion in her memory.
When she got back to the room, it was almost dawn. Feng Lingxi changed into a fresh set of clothes and had just lain down when she heard hurried footsteps outside and the door being pushed open.
"Madam Second, Miss Fourth hasn't woken up yet." Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Give way."
The visitor was Second Madam Liu from General's Mansion. After Feng Lingxi's biological mother, Zhang shi, fell ill, Liu shi seized everything that belonged to Zhang shi and even had the people in the mansion call her "Second Mistress".
Feng Ling's two younger brothers were both born to her. She rose in status as "mother of the esteemed," slowly becoming the mistress of the General's Manor.
Feng Ling Xi lazily sat up, rubbing her sleepy eyes as she looked at the group of people who had entered her room. "Second aunt, what are you doing here so early in the morning"
"What did you call me"
When Liu heard the words "auntie," she flew into a rage and rushed over, wanting to pull her off the bed. However, Feng Lingxi pulled her back with one hand, sitting on Liu's back with a thud. The force of it made Liu yelp in pain.
"Windling, you wretched thing, get out of my way."
Wind Lingxi slowly got up and deliberately stepped on Liu Shi's back, causing Liu Shi to scream in pain again.
"Mother, are you alright"
Feng Linglong rushed in and saw her mother sitting on the ground. She hurriedly stepped forward to help Liu up, glaring at Feng Lingxi, "Fourth Sister, how dare you hit our mother."r, do you want to call Fourth Sister-in-law over She…""If you can't even get through the door, how could you possibly find her"Dugu Cheng feigned a sigh and said, "Your Majesty, please don't mock this...
