Old Zhang hurriedly made his way to the study after stepping out. Upon reaching the door, he noticed someone inside and quickly asked, "Is the Fourth Prince in the study?"
"Yes," came the reply.
"Then why isn't he coming out? Did you inform him?" Old Zhang pressed.
"I did."
At that moment, confusion deepened in Old Zhang's mind, and he furrowed his brow, pondering to himself: What is going on here? Is it intentional?
With a heart full of questions and doubts, Old Zhang cautiously stepped forward, trying to make no sound as he approached the study.
As he entered, he immediately spotted Lin Feng sound asleep. Looking at this scene, Old Zhang felt a wave of speechlessness wash over him, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
Regaining his composure, he leaned closer to Lin Feng and whispered, "Fourth Prince, wake up. The Second Prince is here and waiting in the hall!"
However, Lin Feng seemed undisturbed by the call and remained lost in his sweet dreams.
Seeing this, Old Zhang raised his voice slightly and called out again, "Fourth Prince!" This time, Lin Feng finally reacted; his tightly shut eyes slowly opened, and he looked at Old Zhang with bleary eyes, mumbling, "What is it?"
Old Zhang shook his head helplessly and repeated what he had just said.
After hearing this, Lin Feng paused for a moment before suddenly sitting up straight, rubbing his eyes as he asked, "Where's Er Ge?"
"In the hall," Old Zhang quickly replied.
"Oh, I see. I'll be right there." With that, Lin Feng swiftly got out of bed.
After a quick wash-up and a firm slap on his cheeks to wake himself fully, he hurried toward the hall.
Just as Lin Feng was about to step through the hall's entrance, he heard Lin Quan's slightly displeased voice from inside: "I've been waiting for over an hour; where are they?"
As soon as Lin Quan finished speaking, Lin Feng dashed into the hall with a big smile on his face and exclaimed loudly, "Haha! Er Ge! I'm really sorry to have kept you waiting!"
Lin Quan glanced up at Lin Feng, and his expression darkened instantly. With a scowl on his face, he replied coldly, "Hmph! It really has been a long wait!"
Although anger burned fiercely within Lin Quan at that moment, he knew that lashing out would not resolve anything. So he suppressed his fury and made an effort to calm himself down.
Once everyone was seated, Lin Quan's subordinates hurriedly brought in steaming cups of tea.
"Come, Brother Er Ge, please have some tea," one of them said with a beaming smile.
"No need," Lin Quan replied impatiently, waving his hand. His gaze swept over the teacup in front of him, and he felt a wave of nausea rise in his stomach. They had been drinking this tea for a full two hours, and just the sight of it made him want to vomit.
After a brief silence, Lin Quan forced a smile and said to the person sitting across from him, "Fourth Prince, I hear you are soon to be married. Congratulations!"
"Oh? Brother Er Ge, you already know!" The other person responded with surprise.
"Fourth Prince, may I ask which young lady you are tying the knot with?" Lin Quan asked casually.
In truth, he was well aware of the answer; he was merely pretending not to know.
"It is Lord Xia Yuanji's daughter."
Upon hearing this answer, Lin Quan couldn't help but smirk inwardly while maintaining a composed exterior. "I see. I have heard that Lady Xia Yuanji is not only exceptionally beautiful but also talented in various arts—music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. You truly are fortunate, Fourth Prince!"
"You flatter me, Brother Er Ge. I cannot compare to Sister-in-law's remarkable talents and beauty."
"Speaking of which, it has been some time since I last saw Sister-in-law. I hope you can convey my regards to her when you return."
