Chu Feiyan was clearly in a bad mood, with redness around her nose and eyes, evidently having cried.
Upon seeing Chu Qianli enter, her expression darkened even further.
Head bowed, on the verge of tears, it seemed like her tears could fall at any moment.
Feng Qihe was comforting her, "If the Commandery Princess feels upset, how about I accompany you for a walk?"
Yet, Chu Feiyan's gaze drifted past him, landing on Feng Yexuan standing on his other side.
Prince Yexuan was silently drinking, waiting for the Empress Dowager, not uttering a word nor sparing her a glance.
Feeling aggrieved, Chu Feiyan looked at Feng Qihe, "The Empress Dowager is hosting the banquet, how dare I leave early? Even if bullied, I can only quietly wait."
"Who dares to bully Commandery Princess Feiyan?" Feng Qihe seemed distinctly displeased.
Chu Feiyan bit her lip and glanced at Chu Qianli, that look full of resentment was plain for anyone to see.
