TSFLIP Chapter 708

Feng Guang, Jian An, and Jian Dan walked into the room together. The woman who had been sitting quietly instantly stood up. She quickly stepped in front of Feng Guang, her expression complicated. “Feng Guang… it’s been a long time.”

“Uh… hi.” Feng Guang had no idea how long it had been since she’d last seen her, so all she could do was greet her awkwardly.

So this was Liuli, the heroine of the original story. She really was quite pretty.

Liuli looked at Jian An. “Why don’t you and Jian Dan step outside? I’d like to talk to Feng Guang alone.”

“Alright.” Jian An nodded. “If you need me, just call. I’ll be right outside.”

“Mom, what are you gonna say to Auntie? Let me hear too…”

“Jian Dan.”

One look from his father and Jian Dan instantly lost his nerve. He shrugged and obediently followed Jian An out, closing the door behind them.

Once only Liuli and Feng Guang remained inside, Liuli’s eyes shimmered with tears. “I can’t believe it’s been over a hundred years. You haven’t changed at all—you’re still so beautiful.”

“Uh… thanks, you’re very pretty too.” Feng Guang replied stiffly, not sure what was going on. Why was Liuli acting like they were long-lost sisters? Liuli was so earnest, while she herself seemed cold and indifferent by comparison. Did that make her look heartless?

More importantly, she worried that if those two men outside saw this, they’d think she was bullying Liuli.

Liuli dabbed at the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, giving an embarrassed smile. “I’m sorry, Feng Guang. I just haven’t seen you in so long. I got carried away. I heard you’ve lost your memory again. Seeing me like this must make you feel awkward.”

After all, they had crossed paths long ago. Though not often, Liuli knew that Feng Guang always treated strangers with detached indifference. No matter how someone cried or raged, she’d only give them a light, dismissive glance.

“It’s fine…” Feng Guang said vaguely, then cut straight to the point. “I heard from the Demon Lord that you wanted to talk to me. What is it? I should warn you first—I’ve forgotten a lot of things. I still haven’t remembered them.”

“Feng Guang, you don’t need to be nervous. The reason I wanted to meet you this time was to tell you about what happened back then. If what happened then was the cause, then what’s happening now is the effect.”

“You want to tell me about what happened back then? Why?”

Liuli frowned. “Because I can’t bear to watch you remain imprisoned by Suva… and because I still owe you a debt.”

Feng Guang’s expression grew serious. “Explain. What exactly do you mean?”

“It all started more than a hundred years ago…”

Back then, the strongest nation in the human realm was the Chao Ren Kingdom, and its emperor was Jian An. When Jian An was still the crown prince, he had been betrothed to the prime minister’s daughter. Not long after he ascended the throne, he was set to marry her in a grand ceremony—the day she would officially be crowned empress.

But on the day of the wedding, a fairy descended from the heavens. Not only did she knock the newly appointed empress unconscious, but because her magic was out of control, she also threw the palace banquet into utter chaos.

In the end, it was the emperor’s national adviser who subdued the troublesome little fairy with his spell. That adviser was Zhong Ran.
