Because she knew that if she spoke first at this moment, Xing Feng might be even more painful.
Sometimes learning to act dumb is a skill, but this doesn't mean she has no attitude towards it.
It was all her fault. She made a wrong judgment. She didn't expect that Letty would take advantage of the situation and make Xing Feng go through those bad things.
But she knew very well that Xing Feng's heart was always with her, and even if Letty really did something, it would not be able to shake anything.
"Don't worry, I am willing to stand with you forever in this world."
Farah's voice was gentle and firm, like a warm current, slowly flowing into Xing Feng's cold heart.
Xing Feng shuddered, thinking that Farah had noticed something.
But Xing Feng quickly rejected this idea. If Farah knew, she would never have such an attitude...
As long as he keeps all this a secret, maybe... he will never lose her...
Xing Feng's body began to slowly relax, and he buried his face in Farah's arms, as if looking for a little comfort and warmth, which was his only harbor in this world.
Farah's existence was like a beacon, guiding him in the long night.
Xing Feng didn't know what to do if he lost Farah.
Farah also gently touched Xing Feng's silver hair and continued to whisper: "No matter what you encounter, I will be by your side. I am willing to share your pain and understand your sorrow. Remember, whenever you reach out to me, I will hold it tightly."
These simple yet profound words were so touching, but to Xing Feng they sounded like a series of alarm bells, making him feel even more guilty.
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." Every word that came out of Xing Feng's mouth was like barely crawling out from an icy abyss. Although the voice was almost inaudible, it was filled with endless regret and self-blame.
His body trembled slightly, as if he was carrying a burden heavier than the world.
On this dark and lonely night, his apology sounded particularly desperate and powerless.
However, Farah still heard it. She heard those broken syllables and the crying and helplessness deep in Xing Feng's heart.
She stroked Xing Feng's hair gently, her movements full of tenderness and delicacy.
Her eyes were full of love and pity for Xing Feng, as if she could see through every bit of pain and struggle in his heart.
In Farah's eyes, Xing Feng is like a flower that needs care, pure and fragile.
His soul was like a field covered in ice and snow, just waiting for her gentle sunshine to shine on it.
She liked Xing Feng like this, and liked the fragility and dependence he showed in the face of gentleness.
In her eyes, Xing Feng was like a wounded little bird, nestling timidly in her arms.
And that dependence and trust made her willing to give everything, just in exchange for his smile and happiness, to light up his world.
And now, she only needed a little patience and extreme tenderness to melt the ice and make the flower in his heart bloom again for her.
...
Chapter 96 Old acquaintance
Light filtered through the gaps in the heavy brocade curtains and spilled into the small bedroom.
Xing Feng slowly woke up from his dream and felt the warmth beside him gradually dissipating.
He quickly opened his eyes and sat up on the bed, looking around for Farah with eyes that still showed yesterday's fatigue.
Fortunately, Farah was sitting at the dressing table not far from the bed, combing her red hair gently and methodically with her hands.
Her red hair was extremely soft, like silk, and it moved gently as the comb moved, exuding an indescribable beauty and charm.
Then she stopped what she was doing, gently tucked a bunch of hair behind her ear, picked up a delicate rose hair ornament on the dressing table, and pinned her hair to the side.
The pair of rosy thin lips under the straight and elegant nose seemed to be smiling, revealing a kind of nobility and elegance unique to aristocrats.
The whole room was filled with a warm and peaceful atmosphere, which made Xing Feng feel a little infatuated.
After cleaning up, Farah stood up and walked out of the house with gentle steps, as if she was afraid of disturbing his peace.
Looking at Farah's leaving back, his thoughts suddenly became vague and uneasy, and the sense of dependence and the desire not to separate in his heart became stronger and stronger.
"Fara, where are you going?" Xing Feng couldn't help but call out to Farah.
Farah naturally heard Xing Feng's call. She turned her head and looked at Xing Feng who was still in a daze on the bed.
"Oops, I accidentally woke you up. The Chamber of Commerce has some things to deal with today, so I have to go check it out."
Hearing that Farah was about to leave, Xing Feng suddenly felt an unknown fear in his heart.
When Farah was about to leave him, he could clearly feel a difference.
The feeling was so strong that he didn't want to miss any moment with her.
The rosy little mouth was tightly closed, as if silently making up her mind.
His legs below the knees unconsciously rubbed the sheets, revealing his inner anxiety and urgency.
"Fara." Xing Feng called softly, trying to hide his inner turmoil, "I...I don't want to stay at home alone. I...I want to go with you, okay?"
It was like a baby bird trying to cling to her, which really surprised Farah. The effect was really too good.
But Farah was not going to agree easily. After all, she wanted to change Xing Feng's subconscious mind and make him depend on her completely like a vine growing around a bracket.
"It's a bit chaotic in the Chamber of Commerce, and you look a little tired. You should stay home and rest. I'll be back before noon." Farah stepped forward and kissed Xing Feng on the forehead.
But then, she saw Xing Feng kneeling down, leaning forward slightly, clutching the quilt under him.
That pretty face was biting its lower lip sadly, and those rose-lined eyes were looking at him wetly.
"No, leave me..."
Farah was extremely moved by Xing Feng's delicious appearance. She took a deep breath and finally suppressed the urge to love him well.
She stretched out her arms and gently embraced Xing Feng in her arms, wiping his eyes.
"Why are you still sad? Is it because I did something to make you sad?"
"No, not you." Xing Feng was particularly attached to Farah's warm and sweet body. "Please take me with you, okay?"
Last night, Farah also hugged him gently like this, as if she could withstand all the cold and storms in the world.
This unprecedented sense of security dispelled all the uneasiness and worries in his heart.
He didn't want Farah to leave... and didn't want to be alone...
After a long time, Farah released the hug, leaned down and pressed Xing Feng's shoulders, and gave Xing Feng a sweet kiss on his lips.
"Okay, let's go together. But you must obey my arrangements and stay by my side." Farah finally said, and Xing Feng's heart was suddenly filled with warmth and gratitude.
Being kissed and possessed by Farah, he no longer felt shy and resistant as before, but instead gained an ultimate peace.
So Xing Feng shyly stretched out his arms, wanting another hug or a kiss.
"You want it again, don't you?" Farah tapped Xing Feng's nose lightly and smiled charmingly, "Don't try to seduce me, or I'll indulge in lust in broad daylight again, don't you dislike that?"
Xing Feng blushed all of a sudden, lowered his head shyly, and then whispered softly: "No...no."
He just wanted that feeling of peace of mind, not that...
Today, Xing Feng became particularly obedient.
He let Farah do what she wanted without saying a word, which made Farah particularly satisfied.
So when changing clothes, Farah would occasionally rub it to test the effect.
The little slut who might have run away at any time in the past, just blushed slightly today and shyly asked Farah not to bully her.
This made Farah feel refreshed, and she started to touch and hug her again, making Xing Feng blush. He finally stopped when he snuggled in her arms.
After packing up, the two of them went out and saw the maid Xiao Qian who was still yawning yesterday.
Seeing Lady Farah appear, Xiao Qian was startled. As a member of the Thorn Rose organization, she must stay focused at all times!
I must not make any mistakes in front of Lady Farah.
And then he saw Xing Feng, who was dressed up beautifully and leaning against Farah with a slightly blushing face.
Xiao Qian just felt that His Highness was the most perfect lover God had given to her.
Oh no, she remembered the fan fiction that kept her awake all night last night. Xiao Qian hurriedly ran away and drove away, fearing that Lady Farah and His Royal Highness the Saint would discover the clues.
The carriage drove towards the Chamber of Commerce, leaving Candice alone guarding the door.
Seeing Xing Feng becoming closer to Farah, Candice couldn't express the bitterness in her heart. She also wanted to be as openly loving with Xing Feng as Farah.
But what should she do when she knows nothing about love and has caused a disaster?
At this time, Becky came behind her sister, tugged her sister's finger and said, "Sister, I actually have an idea, but I may have to put you in a difficult position."
...
The sunlight shone into the hall of the Rose Chamber of Commerce through the high windows. Xing Feng followed Farah to the warehouse under the Chamber of Commerce.
As soon as the door was opened, brilliant light emanated from the gold, silver and jewelry shining with dazzling luster, and the mountains of gold coins made the whole space full of luxury and wealth.
Each piece of jewelry sparkles with charming light, as if telling the secret of its extraordinary value and history.
Xing Feng's eyes wandered over the treasures in the room, and he couldn't help but feel shocked by Farah's huge wealth.
At a long table, several maids in pure white dresses were busy. Their movements were skillful and orderly as they were counting and sorting the large amount of gold and silver.
Piles of gold coins were carefully sorted and stacked, silverware was polished until it shines like new, and pearls and gems were carefully placed on velvet to avoid colliding with each other.
The maids held lists that densely recorded the name, weight, and valuation of each piece of jewelry.
This list is not only a clear record of wealth, but also a visual report of the origin of these financial reports.
The maids sometimes discussed in low voices, and sometimes carefully checked the list. Their concentration and seriousness made Xing Feng look at Farah's management ability with admiration.
Farah walked over to the maids, her eyes lingering on each piece of jewelry, as if looking for something.
Her expression was calm and confident, and it was obvious that she was accustomed to such scenes.
She gently asked a maid a few questions, and the maid immediately answered respectfully and pointed to a jewel ring specially placed in a red box.
Farah picked up the ring and looked at it carefully. The ring was inlaid with a dazzling sapphire and surrounded by delicate silver patterns, which looked very elegant.
Then she took Xing Feng's right hand and placed the ring in his palm.
"I'll give you a souvenir first, and then I'll give you a bigger one at the wedding." Farah smiled slightly, which made Xing Feng's heart move slightly. He shyly held the ring to his chest.
My heart is beating so fast.
But deep down... I feel so guilty for the gift Farah gave me...
Because until now, he had not confessed to Farah and tried to hide what had happened.
Xing Feng originally wanted to return the ring, but after thinking for a moment, he decided to keep it.
This ring may one day become his only fare when he leaves.
Just then, heavy footsteps suddenly sounded at the door, followed by a group of fat businessmen being brought in.
Their faces were filled with anxiety and fear. They avoided looking directly at Farah, let alone the dazzling gold, silver and jewels all over the ground.
After all, they know the source of these things better than anyone else.
The maids also put away their previous working attitude and began to seriously instruct the merchants to check the treasures in front of them one by one to confirm their authenticity and accuracy.
Looking at this group of merchants, Farah's eyes flashed with a hint of indifference as she explained, "These jewels are all the wealth accumulated by these merchants through corruption in the empire and the territories over the years. Not only did they exploit the people, they also colluded with certain forces in the empire to erode the lives of the people."
Farah's voice was calm and firm, revealing his sense of responsibility and justice as a count.
Xing Feng was greatly shocked when he heard Farah's explanation.
He could hardly imagine that behind all this glamorous wealth, there lay such an ugly truth.
At this moment, one of the merchants suddenly fell to her knees and began to cry, declaring that she was willing to confess everything, including the slaves she had bought with her ill-gotten gains.
Her voice was choked, and her words were filled with regret and fear, as if she was completely frightened by the situation before her.
Xing Feng was stunned by this sudden confession. He had never imagined that the crimes of these businessmen could be so serious.
From corruption to human trafficking, what these people did is undoubtedly a blatant violation of human ethics.
Xing Feng turned his gaze to the businessmen and saw the greed and panic on their faces. He couldn't help but feel a strong anger in his heart.
And this was exactly what Farah wanted to see. Then a maid came forward and whispered something in Farah's ear.
Farah nodded and told Xing Feng the news about the group of slaves.
So the two of them, led by the maid, came to a clean and tidy room.
