“Yes.”
“You did the right thing by not saying that she’s the eldest daughter of the Yan Family in North City. If your mother finds out about her identity, it’ll probably be a bad thing. You know your mother’s personality too. She’s used to praising the strong and trampling on the weak. If she finds out that Yan Jinyu is the fiancée of that person in the Yin Family, she’ll probably curry favor and keep a close eye on her. It’ll be disadvantageous for us instead.”
“Tell Lu Yuan to shut her mouth and not say anything! If she says anything and spoils the matter, don’t blame me for being rude to you guys without any regards for our kinship!”
A sinister look flashed past Feng Hua’s eyes. He lowered his eyes to hide it. “I’ll keep an eye on her. Dad, don’t worry. I won’t let her ruin anything.”
“Alright, go down first. I’ll instruct you when I have new arrangements.”
Feng Xing thought of something and asked, “I heard that Xu’er is back?”
Feng Hua nodded. “Yes, he just arrived in the afternoon. He said that he had a long flight and was tired, so he didn’t come to see you and Mom immediately. He’s resting in his room and said that he would visit you tomorrow.”
“What’s there to pay respects to? Hurry up and find a reason to send him away! Now that there are so many esteemed guests at home and almost all of them are recuperating, it will be very troublesome if Xu’er sees anything. I wonder how you taught your son to actually raise a son who is always at odds with his family!”
“If I hadn’t valued this grandson of mine and the Feng Family still had to rely on him to continue the bloodline, I would have chased him out of the family long ago!”
“Dad, don’t be angry. I’ll guide him well.”
“What guidance? You couldn’t even teach him well when he was young. He’s already 25 now. Can you still teach him? It’s fine as long as he doesn’t ruin things. Otherwise, I’m afraid I won’t want him as my grandson! Coincidentally, Sir came to me a few days ago and mentioned Feng Li’s son to me. I think Sir seems to be interested in him.”
“As long as Sir likes it, I don’t mind that he’s the son of that unfilial son.”
Feng Li, Feng Li, Feng Li!
He had already been dead for so many years, but he was still lingering around!
“But Dad, even if Sir likes that child, the Yin Family won’t let him go. Can you get him back? Besides, I heard that ever since Eldest Brother and Sister-in-law passed away, that child has never left the courtyard again. He’s autistic and gloomy. Even the Yin Family’s members rarely see him.”
“He’s from the Feng Family. How dare the Yin Family not give him back to us if we want him? So what if he’s autistic and gloomy? Since Sir mentioned him, he must have something that he admires. As long as the Yin Family lets him go, we don’t have to worry about anything else. Sir will deal with it!”
However, it was impossible for the Yin Family to let him go!
The Feng Family was also far inferior to the Yin Family. They had no right to openly go against the Yin Family! Besides, Feng Li was forced to leave home back then. Although they didn’t publicly announce it, everyone in the know knew that Feng Li had fallen out with the Feng Family back then!
However, Feng Hua didn’t say anything in the end.
Hmph! If the old man wanted Feng Li’s son to take over his son’s position in the Feng Family, then he would let this damn old man get the cold shoulder. He would see what would happen to this damn old man if he went against the Yin Family!
“Alright, I understand. But Dad, unless it’s absolutely necessary, you shouldn’t have any ideas about that child. The Yin Family isn’t easy to deal with.” It was one thing to expect the old man to be taught a lesson, but it was another thing to pretend to be considerate and caring to him!
“Do I need you to teach me?”
“Feng Li was born to be rebellious. That son of his still has half the blood of the Yin Family, so he’s definitely not a softie. I’m afraid he’ll be even more unruly when he’s brought back. Unless it’s a last resort, I won’t abandon Xu’er and choose him.”
“Dad is indeed considerate.”
“Don’t always speak nicely. Find a reason to send Xu’er out first. Since he doesn’t want to go home so much, stay outside! Call him more often to guide him. He’s also a smart and outstanding child. If he can work for Sir with us, the Feng Family won’t have to worry about not prospering.”
The old man said that Xu’er was too old for him to control and yet asked him to guide him more. This damn old man!
“I will.”
In order not to let him talk about the bastard that Feng Li had left behind, he changed the topic, “By the way, Dad, did you mention to Sir that you wanted to give Feng Qin to Sir as his daughter-in-law?”
His question indeed diverted Feng Qing’s attention.
Feng Qing frowned. “I hinted at it, but after hearing my hint, Sir seemed to be a little unhappy. He probably feels that Feng Qin isn’t worthy of his son, but he didn’t reject it explicitly. It’s probably impossible for her to be Sir’s daughter-in-law, but if we send Feng Qin over directly, Sir probably won’t reject it. We can even sell him a good favor.”
“Send her over? The value of sending her over…”
Feng Hua didn’t continue, and Feng Qing understood.
“Fengqin is only suitable as a gift. Since we want to get closer to Sir, we shouldn’t do anything that Sir doesn’t like.”
“Besides, Feng Qin hasn’t been close to us all these years. From the fact that she doesn’t listen to us and wants to go to the entertainment circle to fool around, we know that she’s not someone who knows her place.”
“Letting her marry Sir’s son might not be good for us.”
“It’s different if we simply send her over. We can get closer to Sir, but we don’t elevate Feng Qin’s status and let her have the chance to step on us.”
Feng Hua nodded in agreement.
That was indeed the case.
He just didn’t expect this damn old man to treat Fengqin so ruthlessly.
Sending her over directly. If the other party liked her, she would barely be treated as an lover. If the other party didn’t like her, then the outcome…
Be it Sir or Sir’s son, they were not nice people.
“There’s no hurry. Let’s settle the two guests in the Feng Family first.”
He looked at Feng Hua and warned, “Don’t let Lu Yuan know about Feng Qin and Sir. You also know that your wife has a loose tongue and doesn’t know her limits.”
“If she hadn’t rushed to North City to find trouble with Yan Jinyu previously, Sir wouldn’t have been dissatisfied with us. It’s best if Yan Jinyu didn’t notice anything. Otherwise, I definitely won’t let Lu Yuan off!”
“I taught her a lesson about going to North City. I also stopped her in time and didn’t let her offend Yan Jinyu too much. I think Yan Jinyu shouldn’t have noticed the Feng Family because of Lu Yuan.”
Feng Qing was furious when he heard his excuses.
“Yan Jinyu wouldn’t have noticed the Feng Family because of Luyuan, but what about your adopted daughter? Have you forgotten how she was injured and still can’t get up from bed?”
“I told you not to adopt her. Even if you want to adopt, you have to adopt an obedient one. Look at what you’ve raised! She only knows how to find trouble all day!”
“She’s just an adopted girl from the branch family. We gave her everything that the eldest daughter of the Feng Family was entitled to, but she’s doing all kinds of unpresentable things. She fooled around in school and even chased after boys. She’s disgraced the Feng Family! I didn’t care about the small conflicts, but she actually caused such a huge mess and was even crippled!”
“Perhaps, Yan Jinyu came to the Feng Family because of her!”
That was true.
Feng Yan had taken the opportunity to find trouble at the resort. Yan Jinyu knew that she didn’t die on the spot. After that, she was sent to the hospital and the Feng Family quickly transferred her away.
Usually, the Feng Family should have apologized immediately when they knew that Feng Yan had offended her. However, the Feng Family secretly took her away without doing anything and never mentioned this matter again.
This was not the way a big family should handle things.
It was hard not to suspect the Feng Family after they had chosen to do this.
In addition, Feng Yan had offended her previously. Lu Yuan had run to the school to find trouble with her, but Feng Hua rushed to stop her.
All these things added up made Yan Jinyu even more suspicious.
Of course, it was also possible that Feng Hua had rushed over to stop her because he was afraid of Yin Jiujin.
But after that?
Feng Yan had clearly offended her, but the Feng Family still didn’t apologize and even secretly transferred her away.
It would be strange if Yan Jinyu didn’t suspect them.
Hence, they really found something.
It wasn’t that they had found out that there was something wrong with the Feng Family. They only found out that after Liu Guang and the others left the capital, it was very likely that they were hiding in Cloud City.
“After she recovers, I’ll teach her well and won’t disappoint Dad again!”
“That better be the case! Otherwise, we’ll let her show her value in advance. We can’t have raised her for nothing after so many years!”
“I understand.”
“Alright, go out first!” Feng Qing waved his hand impatiently.
Feng Hua’s expression was not very good. He lowered his eyes to hide the anger in them. “Yes.”
After closing the door and leaving, only Feng Qing was left in the study.
Feng Qing sat down at the desk and took out his phone to make a call.
His expression turned affectionate. “Lun’er.”
“Dad, what’s the matter?” The other party’s voice was very cold.
“Are your injuries better?”
“I’ve almost recovered. Is this what Dad called to say?”
“Not entirely. What about the guests living in your courtyard? How are their injuries?”
“About the same as me. Dad, if there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up first.”
“Wait! There’s something else I want to tell you. Yan Jinyu and Xi Fengling are guests in the Feng Family now! As Feng Qin’s friend, they said that they came to Cloud City for a vacation and wanted to stay with the Feng Family for a few days…”
“What did you say?!” The other party was shocked. There was even the sound of something shattering on the phone. “Why are you only saying such an important thing now?!”
“They just arrived at the Feng Family not long ago. Before they came, I didn’t know that Feng Qin’s so-called friends were them.”
“This is indeed my negligence. Lun’er, what should we do now? Do we directly deal with them, or…”
“How are you going to deal with them! Don’t you know who the other party is? If they’re so easy to deal with, how would they have forced Sir to such a state? If the other party is so easy to kill, why did we come back half alive last time?”
“One person is already difficult to deal with, and now, the two of them have come to the Feng Family together! They were the first and second killers on the Assassin Ranking back then! Do you think the first and second killers from Ghost Slaughter Island will be easy to deal with?”
“But the other party is in our territory now. Can’t we…”
“Do you think it’s so easy to kill her in our territory? Wasn’t that Sir’s territory on Ghost Slaughter Island back then? Sir had so many capable people under him, but they couldn’t do anything to her and ended up falling into her hands. Do you think the Feng Family has a greater advantage than Ghost Slaughter Island?”
Feng Qing fell silent.
How could the Feng Family compare to Ghost Slaughter Island!
“Don’t act rashly first. I’ll discuss a strategy with Sir. Watch them and don’t let them near my courtyard!”

In the dead of the night.
A person in a night suit leaped into Yan Jinyu’s room from the balcony.
