Did Yuxing ever look for Feng Ling?
Feng Yexuan's deep eyes instantly locked onto Feng Ling.
Feng Ling lowered her gaze, hiding all the unease in her eyes.
When she looked up again, she had completely calmed down.
Her voice was very gentle, "Are you referring to... that night three days ago?"
"Yes, that night three days ago!" Ding Chen was actually very anxious, but he dared not show it in front of the Prince.
Feng Ling pursed her lips, seemingly recalling.
A moment later, she said, "Yuxing did come to find me that night, but it was because... because I discovered Yuxing's secret, and she wanted me not to tell anyone."
"Secret?" Ding Chen stepped forward anxiously, "What secret?"
"She..." Feng Ling hesitated, then looked up at Feng Yexuan, as if unsure whether she should speak.
"Yexuan, I promised Yuxing I wouldn't say anything. This... it might not be good to reveal it."
"But no one knows where he is now. The most important thing is to find him back!"
Ding Chen and Yuxing had always had a very good relationship. He didn't care about secrets or not. What he cared about was whether Yuxing was... was still alive.
Some things, he dared not even think about, but not thinking about them didn't mean they didn't exist!
"Miss Feng, what do you know? Hurry up and tell us!"
In his anxiety, Ding Chen almost reached out to grab Feng Ling's hand.
Feng Ling took half a step back, avoiding him.
Ding Chen then remembered that she was a lady.
He quickly said, "Miss Feng, I have no ill intentions, nor do I mean to offend. I just... I just... Prince, please ask Miss Feng to reveal what she knows. Your subordinate... your subordinate... is anxious."
Ding Chen was sweating profusely.
Was Yuxing still alive? Where was he?
Feng Ling continued to look at Feng Yexuan, as if she would only speak if Feng Yexuan gave the word.
Feng Yexuan was also concerned about Yuxing's safety.
After a moment of silence, he said, "If Yuxing can be found and is safe, then it is not wrong for you to reveal this secret."
Feng Ling let out a sigh, then said softly, "Yuxing... Yuxing is not a man, she... she is a girl."
"What?" Ding Chen was so shocked his jaw almost dropped. "Miss Feng, you... what did you say? Yuxing she... she..."
Feng Yexuan remained silent, his deep eyes revealing nothing of his current emotions.
It was impossible to tell if he was pleased or angry.
Feng Ling thought she understood him well enough, after all, they had been together for most of this time.
But in reality, most of the time, she found her understanding of him to be truly minimal.
What was he thinking?
However, Prince Xuan's thoughts were too meticulous. Lying in front of him, she was afraid of revealing any flaws.
To avoid showing anything, Feng Ling could only lower her gaze, avoiding Feng Yexuan's eyes.
If she didn't study him, she wouldn't give him more opportunities to study her.
At this moment, Feng Ling was at least mentally sharp.
She said in a low voice, "I discovered it by accident some time ago. Yuxing came to find me that night, begging me not to tell Yexuan. She was afraid that Yexuan would drive her away if he knew she was a girl."
Feng Yexuan still said nothing.
Ding Chen wanted to say something, but dared not.
"Actually, it's just a young girl's little whim. I don't think it's a big deal, but Yuxing is very flustered. She feels that her secret will eventually be revealed."
Feng Ling picked up the ginseng soup again and brought it to Feng Yexuan, "I think she just went out for a walk and didn't think much of it... Yexuan, the ginseng soup is getting cold. Please drink it first."
