Chapter 217 - Jinyu Is Angry
Min Nan was not stupid after all. From Xi Fengling"s words, he could tell that she did not believe him at all.
"Boss Xi, you don"t trust me?"
"It"s not that I don"t believe you. I"m just curious what kind of woman is actually more charming than me." The smile on her face faded slightly, "On the other hand, if Eldest Young Master Min didn"t say anything, could it be that you"re playing with me? Actually, there"s no such person at all?"
After she retracted her smile, she exuded a cold aura that shocked Min Nan.
He knew Xi Fengling"s methods very well.
Back then, Xi Fengling didn"t hold back at all when she got those people to beat him up. She wanted to beat him to death.
He was afraid that if Xi Fengling was unhappy, she would find someone to beat him up again..
After all, this was Xi Fengling"s territory and he was alone.
"Of course!"
"Boss Xi should have heard of that person too. She"s the eldest daughter of the Yu Family and my university cla.s.smate. She"s currently working in the Imperial Capital Hospital and is a famous beautiful doctor in the hospital. She has many suitors. To be honest with you, Boss Xi, I"m also one of her many suitors. I"ve pursued her for many years."
He had not failed to win over a woman"s heart after pursuing her for many years, but Min Nan actually dared to disregard his status and admit that. Min Nan was actually quite respectable for this.
"She has already wavered in my pursuit. If nothing goes wrong, she will be my wife in the future."
As he spoke, he glared at Min Rufeng with an unfriendly gaze. "However, Min Rufeng interfered at this moment!"
"Min Rufeng can coax Boss Xi to devote to him wholeheartedly, so it"s obvious that he"s usually very good at sweet-talking. Yu Chen, who was about to agree to my request, was bewitched by his sweet-talking."
"I came here to warn Min Rufeng not to covet what doesn"t belong to him. Otherwise, the Min Family won"t tolerate him anymore!"
"As for how Boss Xi wants to see this, it"s all up to Boss Xi."
"I"ve said everything that needs to be said. Boss Xi, you can choose to believe me or not!"
At this moment, Min Rufeng spoke and looked at Min Nan with a smile in his eyes, "The Min Family can"t tolerate me? Did Eldest Brother say this, or did someone else in the Min Family say it?"
"Brother, why are you lying to yourself? Outsiders don"t know what"s going on with the Min Family now, but how can I not know?"
"Brother already came here in a panic to threaten me. So, does the Min Family not tolerate me or Eldest Brother?"
Min Nan"s expression changed drastically.
Min Ting, who had already walked over and sat down, answered at this time, "Speaking of which, I"ve heard a lot of rumors recently that there"s actually another reason for Grandfather"s death. And this reason seems to be greatly related to Eldest Uncle, Eldest Aunt, and Eldest Cousin. I wonder if it"s true?"
Min Ting"s seemingly casual question filled Min Nan with shock.
However, he could still remain calm and did not show it on his face.
However, the change in his expression at that moment had already given Min Ting the answer.
Min Ting"s smile faded slightly.
It was really them!
He still had a trace of hope that his grandfather"s death wasn"t really related to them initially. After all, they were family, and he didn"t want them to fight to the death.
However…
Forget it. There was no need for him to be soft-hearted with such heartless people.
"Ting"er, where did you hear this rumor from? Isn"t your grandfather my grandfather? How could my parents and I have harmed Grandfather? Grandfather died of illness. As for how Grandfather fell ill…"
He swept a glance at Min Rufeng and snorted coldly, "You have to ask Min Rufeng that! A 10-year-old can actually get lost! You made Grandfather fall sick!"
Hearing his words, Min Rufeng"s eyes flickered.
However, it was only for a moment. When he looked up again, the ripple in his eyes was no longer there.
"Ask me what? Ask me how I got lost when I followed you and your mother out when I was 10 years old? Do you want me to carefully recall how I got lost back then? Or do you think I really don"t know anything about what Meng An did?"
Min Nan"s expression changed.
No! That was impossible!
How could Min Rufeng possibly know? Back then, his mother had already arranged for those traffickers who had criminal records and it wasn"t her mother who contacted them either. Her mother only brought Min Rufeng to the place where the traffickers often appeared and left Min Rufeng there. Even if he investigated, he couldn"t connect it to his mother at all!
In fact, Min Rufeng really didn"t find anything either.
He was taken away by Ghost Slaughter Island. What was there to investigate?
He said this to trick Min Nan, even though he had already guessed what Meng An was planning to do when he was 10 years old.
At ten years old, he was already sensible.
With his intelligence, he easily avoided the traffickers who had designs on him. In fact, because of his actions, the traffickers were arrested not long after.
If he had not met someone from Ghost Slaughter Island, he could have returned to the Min Family successfully.
He did not expect that with this deception, he really managed to get something out of it.
It could only be said that Min Nan was too weak.
It was really a miracle that a big family like the Min Family could nurture an heir like Min Nan who couldn"t even hide his emotions.
Compared to Min Nan, who had a good reputation, the playboy in everyone"s eyes, Min Ting, was more like the heir of a big family.
"I don"t know what you"re talking about!"
"It doesn"t matter if you understand or not. It"s fine as long as I understand. You just have to remember that the truth always comes out. Sooner or later, what you"ve done will be exposed to the world."
"Also, don"t accuse me of something I didn"t do. I don"t like the woman whom you"ve been pursuing with no results."
"To be honest, I"m very curious where you got the confidence to say those words. Anyone can find out if I"ve hooked up with another woman after investigating, but why are you so sure that Fengling will believe me? Could it be that you think Fengling is so innocent and gullible?"
Xi Fengling glared at him.
Did he mean that she was very scheming!?
Min Rufeng gave her a comforting and helpless smile and continued, "Or is it that my taste is really so bad that I can"t tell who"s more outstanding between the eldest daughter of the Yu Family and Fengling?"
"In Fengling"s words, she has looks, figure, and power. Why should I choose a woman who can"t compare to Fengling other than her medical skills?"
Min Nan blushed because he realized that Min Rufeng was telling the truth.
He tried to say something to make his words more convincing, but Min Rufeng didn"t give him a chance.
"Could it be that I"ve taken a fancy to that woman"s medical skills? In terms of medical skills, I don"t think anyone can surpa.s.s me."
"Min Rufeng, don"t talk to me about this! You like Yu Chen because she"s from a famous family. She"s a legitimate daughter of a famous family. You can marry her in the future, but Xi Feng… Boss Xi…"
"What about me?" Xi Fengling crossed her legs and supported her chin with her hand on her lap. She smiled charmingly, "Am I not from a respectable family? Am I not allowed to enter a big family like the Min Family?"
"Tsk, do you really think that everyone wants to enter the Min Family?" If Min Rufeng wasn"t really a member of the Min Family, who would care to look at the Min Family?
Min Rufeng no longer had a smile on his face. He was obviously angry.
Xi Fengling said this because she was angry with Min Nan"s words and also to calm Min Rufeng down.
They had endured for so long. If Min Rufeng couldn"t hold it in and attacked at the last moment, their previous patience would be wasted.
Min Rufeng still wanted Old Master Min"s cause of death to be exposed in front of others so it was still useful to keep Min Nan around.
"I"m not talking about Boss Xi. I"m just revealing Min Rufeng"s intentions."
"Boss Xi, I"m not afraid of hurting you. No matter how capable you are, you don"t have the right to marry into the Min Family, even if Min Rufeng is just an illegitimate…"
The last sentence was stuck in his throat.
This was because when Yan Jinyu—who had been silent all this while— heard this, she casually picked up the fruit knife on the coffee table and threw it over.
It flew past Min Nan"s ear and left a b.l.o.o.d.y mark on it. The fruit knife sank deep into the wooden door behind him!
Min Nan was so frightened that his legs went limp and he fell to his knees.
Yan Jinyu patted the corner of her s.h.i.+rt and stood up calmly.
Her cold gaze landed on Min Nan.
Min Nan"s limbs turned cold.
H-how was that possible? It was just a look!
This was clearly a 17 or 18-year-old girl. Ever since he stepped into this room, other than thinking that she was beautiful and pure, he had not paid much attention to her.
It was mainly because she was sitting beside Yin Jiujin.
He thought that this should be the hillbilly daughter from the Yan Family in North City who had led a wandering life for many years.
He did not take it to heart at all!
However, was this the gaze of a hillbilly?
It was so cold and frightening!
There was also a strong killing intent!
It was as if killing him was nothing to her!
And her skills…
He was about 10 meters away from her and she wasn"t looking in his direction. She simply picked up the fruit knife and threw it casually.
Was her technique really that precise or was it a coincidence?
If it was a coincidence, how could it be explained that the knife plunged into the wooden door so deeply when they were so far away?
Yan Jinyu walked over slowly and looked down at him, "What did you want to say just now?"
"Illegitimate child? Tsk."
"Do you want me to remind you how Min Guili coveted Feng"s mother"s beauty back then and hid his ident.i.ty and marital status to deceive Feng"s mother?"
"Oh, you weren"t born then, so you naturally didn"t know. Why don"t you go home and ask Min Guili? Or you can ask Meng An. Meng An knows about it too."
Min Nan was shocked.
Not only was he shocked by the fear that he had for Yan Jinyu, but he was also shocked by Yan Jinyu"s words, "Y-you…"
"How did I find out?"
Yan Jinyu sneered, "Isn"t it easy to investigate these few things?" The Min Family"s status in the capital seemed to be on par with the Yin Family, but in reality, it was completely incomparable.
She couldn"t find out much about the Yin Family, but it was very easy to find out about the Min Family.
"Only Feng and Meimei will wait so long. If it were me, I would have finished you off long ago. Why did they still allow you to come here and talk sh*t?"
"Don"t curse," Yin Jiujin and Min Rufeng said at the same time.
Then, the two of them looked at each other.
Yan Jinyu looked at them but didn"t care.
She especially ignored Min Rufeng.
It was fine if he did not get rid of Min Nan right away, but he actually allowed others to come in and say such nonsense.
Min Nan dared to come knocking on their door now when the Min Family"s situation was already like this. So, what about before?
Wasn"t Feng badly bullied by the Min Family?
How embarra.s.sing!
Min Rufeng stopped talking when she glared at him.
In the past three years, in order to patiently investigate the cause of his grandfather"s death, the Min Family had indeed bullied him a lot. And for the sake of the overall situation, he had endured all of it.
Fengling couldn"t stand it and reacted on his behalf many times.
"Does such a person really think that he"s someone important? How dare he come here to bully us?"
"What can the death of a young master in the Min Family do to us? Even if it could affect us, that was the Min Family in the past. Do we still need to care about the current Min Family so much?"
Her cold gaze swept across the pale Min Nan. "If you"re unhappy, just kill him."
Hence, with a casual wave of her left hand, the fruit knife that had sunk into the door frame went back into her hand!
It was so fast that Min Nan, who was closest to her, couldn"t see what was going on!
"M-Magic?!"
