She flipped her hair and smiled charmingly. “If I remember correctly, the reason why Little Feng Qin can persist in the career she likes now is not because the Feng Family didn’t force her to give up, but because the Feng Family failed to succeed.”
“Little Feng Qin has been forced to a dead end by the Feng Family countless times. If she hadn’t happened to sign a contract with a company with a background and that company saw her value and insisted on protecting her, and the Feng Family couldn’t beat the other party, how could Little Feng Qin continue her favorite acting career now?”
“Even an outsider like me knows about this. Doesn’t Third Mr. Feng know?”
Feng Lun frowned. He had only heard about it but he didn’t know the actual reason.
Back then, he didn’t even look at Feng Qin, let alone ask about her.
He thought that the Feng Family didn’t want to give up on their pawn and Feng Qin had insisted. Moreover, she had the company’s protection, so they let her go.
He didn’t expect that it was indeed her management company who was helping her, and the Feng Family couldn’t win against the other party.
“Hence, Little Feng Qin still respects the Feng Family and Old Madam Feng. She has always remembered Old Madam Feng’s words. Otherwise, why would she tolerate these two servants for so long?”
“Miss Xi, this is the Feng Family’s family matter.”
Feng Qing’s sharp gaze landed on Xi Fengling as a warning.
Any other girl in her twenties would have been frightened by Feng Qing’s gaze.
Unfortunately, the person standing in front of him was Xi Fengling. How could a person who had braved through hell countless times be afraid of his gaze?
“Look at what you’re saying, Old Master Feng. Didn’t Old Madam still want to acknowledge me as her god granddaughter a few days ago? It’s just that I’m still thinking about it and didn’t agree immediately. As long as I agree, I’ll be considered part of the Feng Family. The Feng Family’s family matters will naturally be barely considered my matters.”
“Besides, Little Feng Qin and I are still good friends.”
Feng Qing couldn’t refute her because she was telling the truth. He could only glare at Lu Ping.
It was all her fault!
Lu Ping was furious.
Indeed, someone with such a seductive face was as annoying as Feng Xiangxiang’s vixen mother!
“Then, what do you want, Miss Xi?”
Xi Fengling covered her lips in surprise. “What are you talking about, Old Madam?”
“What do you mean what do I want? I’m just interrupting.”
“Not to mention that I haven’t acknowledged the Feng Family yet, even if I do, there are so many Feng Family members present. Old Master and Old Madam are still here. How can I make the decision?”
“Old Madam is wise and shrewd. I believe you will settle the matter.”
The more she spoke, the angrier Lu Ping became.
It was still Feng Qing who glanced at Xi Fengling with a sharp gaze and said, “Alright, just send the disobedient servants away and pick two sensible ones for Xiangxiang. Also, get the butler to Qin’er’s courtyard to see what needs to be added and add them.”
Lu Ping still wanted to say something, but Feng Qing glanced at her. “That’s enough. It’s just a small matter.”
Seeing that he was angry, Lu Ping did not dare to say anything else.
However, she had already remembered this matter and would definitely find a chance to get back at Feng Xiangxiang in the future.
She called for the butler. “Send them away first. The Feng Family doesn’t keep servants who don’t know the rules.”
Before the butler could speak, one of the two servants shouted, “Old Madam, you can’t chase me away! I’m doing as you instructed. I…”
“You what?”
The servant immediately stopped talking after being glared at by her.
“Grandmother, why didn’t you wait for her to finish speaking?”
“Qin’er, enough is enough.” Feng Qing looked at her and warned.
“Your friends are still here. Don’t make a fool of yourself.”
Feng Qin didn’t respond immediately, even though she still felt a little guilty under Feng Qing’s sharp gaze.
She looked at Xi Fengling to ask for her opinion.
Xi Fengling shook her head at her slightly. Feng Qin then lowered her head and said, “Alright, Grandfather.”
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the butler hurriedly called for someone to bring the two servants away.
The crowd finally quietened down.
That was enough. Xi Fengling’s goal was almost achieved.
Other than them and the Feng Family’s members, there was also the Feng Family’s butler and a few servants here today. How could the servants keep secrets?
Once the news spread, people would know how the Feng Family had treated Feng Qin and her daughter all these years.
After all, if the Feng Family could produce those two brainless servants, the others might not be very smart either. Even if the Feng Family had warned them, there would definitely be people who would disobey them.
“Excuse me,” Feng Qing said to Yan Jinyu and Xi Fengling.
“Don’t worry. We’re friends with Little Feng Qin and can barely be considered as your own people. Moreover, we’re not people who will talk nonsense. Of course, we won’t spread what we see and hear in the Feng Family, but we can’t guarantee that others won’t say anything. In order to prevent similar things from happening again, the Feng Family should pay more attention and not let others catch you in the wrong,” Xi Fengling said.
“Thank you for the reminder.” Although Feng Qing answered calmly, only he himself knew how unhappy he was.
Lu Yuan had lived in this family for many years and knew Feng Qing and Lu Ping well. She naturally could tell that they didn’t like Xi Fengling, so she said strangely, “The younger generation nowadays are really getting more and more unruly. They actually interfere in other people’s family matters when they’re guests.”
She said this to curry favor with Feng Qing and Lu Ping, but unexpectedly, Feng Qing and Feng Hua scolded her at the same time, “Shut up!”
They all knew Yan Jinyu and Xi Fengling’s identities. What they needed to do now was to try their best to keep them around. That was why they were so tolerant of them interfering in Feng Qin and her mother’s matters.
It would be easier to get rid of them if they stayed in the Feng Family.
If she made them unhappy, the big deal would be ruined when they turned and left!
After being reprimanded by them, Lu Yuan’s expression froze. Her face instantly flushed red when she thought about how she had been embarrassed in front of so many people.
She was clearly doing this for the Feng Family’s face. Why were they scolding her instead?
Could it be because of Yan Jinyu’s identity?
Were they afraid of offending Yan Jinyu?
However, Yan Jinyu didn’t say much from the beginning to the end. It was mostly Xi Fengling who was talking and her words earlier were obviously targeted at Xi Fengling.
“There are so many people here. Why do you have to interrupt?” Feng Hua was very angry. It was not easy for him to leave a good impression in front of the old man. With her interruption, the old man would have prejudice against him again.
Lu Yuan didn’t dare to speak again, but she was cursing Feng Hua for being useless and always venting her anger on her inwardly.
Feng Xu looked at this scene. He didn’t have much of a reaction other than frowning slightly.
He had long known about their tempers, so he didn’t interrupt even when it was his biological parents. They liked to compare and compete with others. He had persuaded them many times to no avail, so he stopped caring.
“Stop arguing. Everyone should have eaten breakfast at this time, right? If you haven’t eaten, get the kitchen to prepare. Those who have eaten can go ahead and do your work. If there’s nothing else, you can stay for a while,” Feng Qing said.
It was almost 10 am, so they naturally had breakfast.
No one wanted breakfast and no one wanted to stay here.
However, no one left.
Because someone came.
The servants led him straight to the living room of the Feng Family’s main building.
“Old Sir, Old Madam, this gentleman said that he’s Miss Yan’s brother and is here to look for Miss Yan.”
Seeing the person behind the servant, the expressions of everyone in the Feng Family, including the calm Feng Xu, changed!
“Y-you’re…”
“Y-you’re… You’re…”
The few of them spoke at the same time. The former was Feng Qing, Lu Ping, and Feng Hua, while the latter was Feng Xu.
The person was wearing a white robe. He had an exquisite face and a warm smile. He had the aura of a wealthy young master from the olden times. He was really outstanding and elegant.
He walked over slowly, giving people a sense of elegance.
He didn’t look like a real person.
It was the first time Feng Qin and Feng Xiangxiang had seen someone with such an outstanding temperament.
They were stunned for a long time.
It wasn’t that he had outstanding looks. Feng Qin had seen many people who were better-looking than him.
Yin Jiujin was one, and Min Ting was another.
However, no one’s temperament was as special as his.
Yan Jinyu and Xi Fengling were also very surprised to see him.
They looked at each other and then at the person.
Feng Yun stopped a few steps away and smiled warmly at Yan Jinyu. “Yu’er.”
“Cousin, why are you here?”
The servant who brought him in just now even said that her brother was looking for her.
In other words, Feng Yun came to the Feng Family as her older brother?
“I came to Cloud City for something. I came to take a look when I found out that you were in the Feng Family.”
He nodded at Xi Fengling. “Fengling.”
Xi Fengling raised her eyebrows seductively. It was true that they were all from Ghost Slaughter Island, but Feng Yun had long left Ghost Slaughter Island. And during the years he was on Ghost Slaughter Island, he had only been on good terms with Beauty Yu. They were only acquaintances at most.
However, he called her by her given name right away. It seemed like he already knew her background.
It was a coincidence. According to her background, she had to call Feng Yun “Cousin” too. After all the twists and turns, she was related to Beauty Yu.
She nodded slightly. “Cousin.”
Including Feng Xu, Feng Qin, and Feng Lun, everyone thought that Xi Fengling was following Yan Jinyu’s form of address.
However, Feng Xu and Feng Qin thought that she called him cousin because she had a good relationship with Yan Jinyu and Feng Lun thought that she wanted to hide her identity and didn’t want to address him in another manner.
Although they were a little surprised, since Feng Yun was here, Yan Jinyu and Xi Fengling could still accept it.
It was good that he was here. They really should make a fuss at the Feng Family.
With Feng Yun around, he would be a great help.
It was more beneficial for them.
“Big Brother, don’t you…” Don’t you never go out?
Feng Xu didn’t finish asking in the end.
“Xu’er, what are you calling that?!” Feng Hua reprimanded.
Lu Yuan added, “You’re the only son. Where did you get a brother?”
With Feng Yun’s temperament and looks, even Lu Yuan—who had never met Feng Yun and had only seen Feng Li before—could guess his identity after recovering from her shock.
The real eldest grandson of the Feng Family and someone who was competing with her son for the inheritance rights of the Feng Family, how could she be nice to him!
“Dad! Mom!” Feng Xu frowned in disapproval.
Afraid that Feng Yun would think too much, he looked up worriedly. However, he only saw Feng Yun’s warm smile.
Feng Yun was not affected at all.
For a moment, Feng Xu didn’t know if he should be happy or disappointed.
If Feng Yun’s emotions were not affected, it meant that his older brother did not care about his family at all. Hence, no matter what they said, he would not be affected.
Feng Yun really did not care about Feng Hua and Lu Ping’s attitude. He only smiled and said to Feng Xu, “We only met once when I was young. I didn’t expect Xu’er to recognize me immediately.”
Feng Xu, who was usually calm, suddenly felt a lump in his throat when he heard him call her “Xu’er”..
