Venomous Empress Reborn

Chapter 1155 Side Story, Agreed Secretly (5)

Feng Anning was stunned when she heard that. No one had ever told her this. Recently, she saw that everyone in the Feng family was busy and felt that it was strange. However, every time she asked, she was brushed off by Mr. Feng.

She asked, “Brother, what do you mean? Is the Feng family going to be in danger?” Without waiting for Feng Zixian to answer, she continued, “If the Feng family is really in danger, as the daughter of the Feng family, how can I stand by and do nothing? Does Father want to marry me off so that I won’t be implicated? I can’t accept this. Since we’re family, we have to face it together!”

Feng Zixian sighed and said, “Sister, many things are not as simple as you think. It’s naturally good that you want to go through thick and thin with the Feng family, but how can Father and Mother bear to do that? You’ve been pampered since you were young. We don’t want anything to happen to you. Moreover, there are many people with ulterior motives. What if they use you to threaten the Feng family?” After a pause, Feng Zixian said with difficulty, “Not only will you not be of any help if you stay in the Feng family, but you will also distract Father and Mother and even become the Feng family’s weakness. If you marry into the Cao family, not only will Father and Mother be at ease, but the Cao family might also be able to help us.”

Feng Anning did not speak for a long time.

“Anning…” Seeing that she was silent, Feng Zixian was a little worried.

“Brother, I’m fine.” She took a deep breath and smiled at Feng Zixian. “Let me think about it.”

Seeing that she did not want to say anything, Feng Zixian knew that it was difficult for Feng Anning to accept this sudden change, so he did not say anything and left.

After Feng Zixian left, Feng Anning looked at the bronze mirror in a daze, her hands trembling.

Feng Anning never expected this day to come, nor did she expect herself to be a burden to her family.

When she was young, she was too naive and did not know that nothing was guaranteed. The blessed life she enjoyed for the first half of her life had to be repaid with an uncertain future.

She was caught in a dilemma between her happiness and her family.

Feng Anning thought to herself, back then, when Shen Miao was protecting the Shen family, she was restricted. Did she also face this kind of dilemma?

She looked at herself in the mirror. Could a young and willful girl like her shoulder such a huge responsibility?

Feng Anning thought to herself that she could not continue to be willful and let her family protect her.

Anyway… the person she liked did not like her.

But when she had to suffer, they hoped that she would suffer as little as possible.

Feng Anning made up her mind.

…

Feng Anning’s change shocked everyone.

She agreed to Mr. Feng and decided to try to meet Young Master Cao and chat with him. Perhaps she would become his wife in the future.

The Feng family had no choice. Among the few choices they had, this one seemed to be the only one that could make Feng Anning’s life easier. If possible, they did not want Feng Anning to suffer at all, but when she had to suffer, they hoped that she would suffer as little as possible.

Feng Anning’s change was not only her attitude towards her cousin, but also her personality. It was as if she had changed into a different person overnight and became a little taciturn. To outsiders, she had become sensible and gentle, but in the eyes of the Feng family, they knew that she was very sad. However, every time they asked Feng Anning, Feng Anning only smiled and said she was fine.
