What else has he contributed?
After a long silence, Zhong Tianyi looked towards the Phoenix and spoke, "When I went out just now, I saw soone."
"There are always people coming and going; what’s so strange about that?"
"The Holy Daughter of the Fla Shrine, she ca looking for Tang Fei."
"What’s that got to do with ?" Phoenix curled her lips.
Yet her heart still felt sowhat uneasy.
Holy Daughter?
Just hearing the na was infuriating.
n always liked those who appeared saintly and aloof; it gave them a sense of conquest, like a Princess, like a Holy Daughter...
Fortunately, she had also occupied such a role.
Thinking this way, Phoenix unexpectedly felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
What the hell was this?
"Although Tang Fei hasn’t explained their relationship, I saw the way the Holy Daughter looked at Tang Fei..."
Zhong Tianyi looked at Phoenix, after all, she was his own little sister, "just like the way you look at Tang Fei. When I first saw him at your place, I knew you liked him... A woman’s mouth may lie, but her eyes do not."
Everyone in the Phoenix Empire knew that the Second Prince, Zhong Tianyi, had no grand ambitions and was given to wine and won.
It was only after the shocking incident at the Phoenix Palace that everyone realized it was all a disguise.
Yet in his years of decadence, he had illuminated so skills.
Such as discerning a woman’s gaze.
Such as understanding won.
"Not seeking any benefits, even if it’s for your happiness, I hope that the one who ends up with him is you, not any other person."
"I can handle my own affairs."
"I’m not trying to tell you what to do, but things aren’t the sa as before... So matters require initiative."
"I think this is also what Father ans. He too hopes his daughter finds a good match."
"Have you seen him?" Phoenix asked.
"No." Zhong Tianyi shook his head, "He wouldn’t see ."
With that, he walked off towards the outside, his figure forlorn.
Phoenix opened her mouth to speak but didn’t know what she should say.
The sibling bond had grown so distant.
"Miss..." the Maid called softly from the side.
Phoenix’s gaze swept over.
"Should we... inquire about that Holy Daughter?" the Maid asked.
Being with the Princess, they had to think and worry about what concerned her.
Even if this wasn’t New Star, they had their ways and channels to gather information.
After all, many guards and staff from the Phoenix Palace had co to the base.
"No need," Phoenix refused.
She didn’t know who the Holy Daughter was, nor did she want to know.
If their feelings couldn’t withstand external temptations, it would prove their emotional foundation was too weak.
It was better left alone.
She thought again about what Zhong Tianyi said before he left, that tis have changed, and so matters require initiative...
Initiative?
How should she take the initiative?
Phoenix shook her head.
When she was the high and mighty Empire Princess, she could take the initiative.
May my radiance shine upon you.
After losing her empire and becoming a wanderer on a foreign planet, she could no longer take the initiative.
In the na of love, should she beg for his pity?
Phoenix was in emotional turmoil.
She thought she could be indifferent, but in reality, she couldn’t.
Love was a harder subject than mathematics.

Fla Shrine. Lingyang District Branch.
The residence of the Society Leader was also respectfully referred to as ’Divine Palace’ by the Shrine mbers.
When Tang Fei arrived with Bai Wuxin, President Lei Zongnan, the Holy Daughter An Ning, and several other high-ranking mbers of the Shrine, were already waiting at the entrance of the Divine Palace.
An Ning stepped forward to greet them and said to Tang Fei, "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Tang."
"It’s no trouble; I hope I can be of so modest assistance," Tang Fei politely replied.
Pretending not to be too familiar with An Ning.
An Ning pointed to Lei Zongnan beside her and took the initiative to introduce him, "This is Lei Zongnan, the President of the Fla Shrine’s Lingyang Branch."
Tang Fei bowed slightly and said, "President Lei, good day."
Lei Zongnan stepped forward and took Tang Fei’s hand, speaking gravely, "Mr. Tang, I truly appreciate your help... We’ve had so troubles within our Society, and our brothers and sisters are suffering from a demonic affliction, with many already becoming flas and joining the embrace of the Fla God..."
"The Holy Daughter ntioned you could help us... in the na of the Fla God, please lend us a hand, help my brothers and sisters drive away this affliction and restore their health..."
"President Lei, I am acquainted with the Holy Daughter... We also both reside in Lingyang District; we are neighbors so to say. If there is a chance for to help, I certainly will."
"However, I need to understand the situation first, see what exactly the problem is... I’ll need to conduct tests on their blood, and then develop an antidote based on the results..."
"Yes, yes, that’s exactly it." Lei Zongnan happily said, "The Holy Daughter said the sa..."
"Oh, look at my mory, I haven’t even invited our distinguished guest inside. Please, co in... let’s sit down and discuss this in detail."
"Thank you, President."
"Mr. Tang, please."
"President Lei, Holy Daughter, please."
Lei Zongnan stole a glance at Bai Wuxin, standing behind Tang Fei. The young man’s appearance and deanor were stunning, making him involuntarily swallow with admiration.
Assuming he was rely an attendant accompanying Tang Fei, he nodded at Bai Wuxin, making an inviting gesture.
What a charr; ti to show so gentlemanly grace and score so impression points.
Bai Wuxin remained expressionless, cold as ice.
An Ning caught Lei Zongnan’s subtle actions, her long eyelashes fluttering, but she didn’t say much.
She knew so of Lei Zongnan’s peculiar little quirks.
After they were seated, Lei Zongnan had the Maid bring so hot tea.
