After her father's death, having seen the true colors of the branch families, she learned to hide her feelings until she seemed to have none at all.
'I have to shoulder everything. I have to support my mother, and I have to protect my younger sister.'
'Until I met Su Ye. I'd never met anyone like her. It was probably just an illusion, born from when I was injured.'
'Every time I see Su Ye, I feel like she's glowing, like she's the one who will grab my hand in a crisis.'
'But... she's a woman.'
'But none of that matters anymore.'
To succeed as the Family Head, she needed greater strength. She had to put more effort into her Cultivation.
She had to support the Feng Family and keep it from falling, taking it one step at a time. She could no longer be tied down by romance.
When Feng Wei sat upon the Family Head's chair, her cold, stunning makeup concealed all emotion.
A resonant voice announced,
"The ceremony is complete!"
