Chapter 387: How To Choose
Feng Xiangxiang"s courtyard.
The few of them sat in the living room.
As soon as she sat down, Xi Fengling raised her eyebrows and asked Feng Yun, "Young Master Feng already knows about my background, right?"
What background?
Feng Xu, who had been paying attention to Feng Yun, p.r.i.c.ked up his ears.
"Since you know that I already know your background, why are you still calling me Young Master Feng?"
Feng Xiangxiang and Feng Qin made tea for them and happened to hear Feng Yun"s words when they brought the tea over.
The two of them stopped in their tracks at the same time. Then, they brought the tea to the few of them and sat down on the sofa.
Xi Fengling looked at his immortal-like actions and suddenly smiled, "Fate is really strange. After so many twists and turns, we actually have such a relations.h.i.+p."
"It"s indeed very interesting."
"What are you talking about? Why don"t I understand?" Feng Xu was the most confused here.
Feng Xu was usually a calm person. He had become famous and was a professor with a lot of experience in the Imperial Capital University at such a young age. The first impression he gave Yan Jinyu was also calm and steady.
Now that she saw him, she felt different.
He seemed to be more lively?
Yan Jinyu didn"t size him up too much. She glanced at him and sighed inwardly before retracting her gaze.
Xi Fengling didn"t answer Feng Xu immediately. Instead, she raised her eyebrows and threw this question to Feng Yun.
Anyway, at this time, even if the Feng Family found out about her ident.i.ty, it would not affect them much.
Mainly, Feng Yun had just caused trouble and he was still in the Feng Family now. The Feng Family was busy dealing with him. Even if they knew her relations.h.i.+p with the Feng Family, they didn"t have the effort to deal with her.
Besides, Feng Xu looked quite interesting.
He wasn"t close to his parents, but he was chasing after a cousin who he had only met twice.
The other members of the Feng Family valued profits and schemed to gain benefits, but he was an academic.
The others in the Feng Family didn"t treat Feng Qin and her daughter well, but he was an exception.
Anyway, even with Xi Fengling"s judgment, she couldn"t tell that he was pretending.
Looking at Feng Qin and Feng Xiangxiang again, they trusted Feng Xu, but they wouldn"t say anything more to him.
"Brother, what are you talking about? What does it have to do with your background?" Feng Xu was not a stupid person. On the contrary, he was very smart.
He actually had a guess, but he was not sure yet.
He had suspected it when he first saw Xi Fengling.
"Fengling is Aunt"s daughter."
Feng Yun said it casually, but Feng Xu was stunned for a long time.
Even if he had already guessed it.
He returned to his senses and looked between Xi Fengling, Feng Xiangxiang, and Feng Qin.
Indeed, the more he looked at it, the more it looked like it.
After a long while, he asked, "Why didn"t you say that Aunt still has a daughter? If you tell us, we could…"
What could they do?
So that they could help him find her?
What about after she was found? Let her be trapped by the Feng Family like Qin"er?
The Feng Family had no good intentions when they brought Aunt and Qin"er back.
However, after he asked, Feng Qin and Feng Xiangxiang"s emotions changed drastically, especially Feng Xiangxiang. Her eyes were even reddened.
Seeing this, Xi Fengling said, "She lost me years ago. She didn"t know if she can get me back, so Mom didn"t say anything."
It was to divert Feng Xiangxiang"s attention and give Feng Xu an out.
Sighing lightly, Feng Xu said seriously, "Don"t let anyone in the Feng Family know about this for now."
Xi Fengling didn"t expect him to suggest that before they could say anything.
"Actually, it"s fine even if you know," Xi Fengling said.
"It has to be made clear sooner or later. After today"s incident, even if the Feng Family really knows my background, they won"t have the energy to care about me."
They had more important things to do.
Judging from the Feng Family"s behavior today, no one objected to Feng Lun inviting them to his courtyard for a meal. That was unusual in itself.
Logically speaking, Feng Hua and Lu Yuan should be unhappy that Feng Lun had invited them to a place that even the Feng Family"s members couldn"t easily step into. However, they didn"t object at all and didn"t even mention it.
Of course, it was also possible that Feng Yun"s appearance had given them too much of a shock. In addition, Feng Yun"s actions had caught them off guard, so they did not care about Feng Lun treating them to a meal.
But no matter what, it was very strange.
Other than Lu Ping and Lu Yuan, everyone in the Feng Family seemed to know her and Beauty Yu"s ident.i.ties.
Of course, no one knew if they knew that Feng Yun was Bai Ye previously.
At this moment, Yan Jinyu asked Feng Yun, "Why would you come to the Feng Family, Cousin? Just because of Feng Qing"s call?"
"What do you think?"
Alright, there was no need to ask. He already knew that there was something wrong with the Feng Family.
"Cousin, do you know why Feng Qing called you back to the Feng Family? I seemed to have heard him say that he wanted to bring you to see someone in the main building just now. Did I hear wrongly?"
"With your sharp five senses, you naturally didn"t hear wrongly." Feng Yun"s words sounded a little like he was mocking her, but his expression didn"t look like it.
He still looked calm as ever.
"As for who they are bringing to meet, I"ll only know after I meet him." A hint of killing intent flashed past his eyes.
Yan Jinyu caught it.
She blinked.
So, Liu Guang really wanted to meet Feng Yun?
What was Liu Guang doing? Could it be that he still wanted to rope in Feng Yun?
What gave Liu Guang confidence that he actually felt that Feng Yun could still be used by him after he killed Feng Yun"s parents?
"When did Feng Lun decide to treat you guys to a meal?" Feng Yun asked.
"This afternoon. The venue is his courtyard," Xi Fengling answered truthfully.
"Decline it first."
Xi Fengling and Yan Jinyu exchanged glances. Xi Fengling didn"t say anything because she was waiting for Yan Jinyu to decide.
Feng Yun said, "I have other plans. Let"s wait for me to meet the person Feng Qing wants me to meet first."
Yan Jinyu looked at him seriously. She didn"t avoid the others and said in front of all of them, "You suspect that your parents" deaths are related to the Feng Family?"
Wasn"t she afraid that Feng Xu would hear her?
Not really.
On the contrary, Yan Jinyu said it on purpose for him to hear.
If he was pretending, he would have known everything, then there would be no such thing such as exposing the truth. If he wasn"t pretending, it was good that he knew earlier. He should be mentally prepared first so that he would be able to accept it when the time came.
Meimei cared about Feng Qin and her mother. Feng Qin and her mother obviously had a good relations.h.i.+p with Feng Xu. Feng Xu would affect Feng Qin and her daughter, and Feng Qin and her mother might affect Meimei.
Since that was the case, she would have to consider more.
"You"re indeed Yu"er. I simply just started to suspect, but you already guessed it." Feng Yun smiled a little reluctantly. He probably thought of his parents" death.
"Whether it"s related to the Feng Family or not, since the Feng Family is already involved, don"t think about escaping easily."
"What are you talking about again? Why don"t I understand?" Not to mention Feng Xu, Feng Qin and Feng Xiangxiang were all stunned.
Feng Xu felt a little uneasy.
Although he did not understand what was going on, he could understand what was on the surface.
Didn"t they say that Eldest Uncle and Eldest Aunt had an accident while on a mission? Why did Eldest Brother say that their deaths were related to the Feng Family?
He even said that regardless of whether it was related or not, since the Feng Family was already involved, they couldn"t escape easily.
What did that mean?
Feng Yun looked at Feng Xu and could hear the seriousness in his voice. "Before I tell you, I have a question to ask you first."
"…Brother, please ask."
"If my parents" deaths are really related to the Feng Family, what will you do? Will you stand against me to protect them, or will you help me?"
Feng Xu really hoped that Feng Yun was just joking, but when he met Feng Yun"s eyes, he knew that Feng Yun was not joking.
With a difficult and struggling expression, he said, "Brother, is there a misunderstanding here? Grandfather, Grandmother, and even my parents are indeed not kind people, but they at most value their interests a little more. They will also do some immoral things for their interests, but they don"t dare to kill people."
Xi Fengling suddenly chuckled.
They were all attracted by her laughter.
She said, "I"m 80% sure that you"re trustworthy now."
She looked at Feng Xu, "They can do immoral things for benefits. Why are you so naive to think that they don"t dare to kill people?"
Would a family that was closely related to the head of a killer organization not dare to kill someone?
Xi Fengling seemed to have heard a joke.
"Regardless of whether they dare to kill anyone, if they"re really related to my parents" death, what will you do?" Feng Yun asked again.
Feng Xu, who had always been calm, panicked when she met Feng Yun"s gaze.
"I-I don"t know…"
"It"s impossible for them to do such a thing. Eldest Uncle and Eldest Aunt were unfortunately harmed during a mission, and the Feng Family couldn"t have done it when they were on a mission. The Feng Family isn"t that capable."
"That might not be the case," Yan Jinyu said calmly.
For some reason, Feng Qin was still a little suspicious when Xi Fengling and Feng Yun said this. As soon as Yan Jinyu spoke, she felt that this matter was most likely true.
This was Yan Jinyu"s inexplicable convincing aura.
Feng Qin had such a feeling, and so did Feng Xu.
Yan Jinyu looked at Feng Xu and smiled faintly, "Besides, since you"re so sure that it has nothing to do with the Feng Family, what"s there to worry about? What Cousin said just now was just a hypothesis. You just have to answer his question. It"s not like Cousin will accuse the Feng Family without any evidence."
"If it is false, everyone is happy. If it is true, we won"t let them off easily."
"So, you have to think carefully before answering because this will decide if you will become our enemy."
"I-I-I mean, if Eldest Uncle and Eldest Aunt"s deaths are really related to the Feng Family, I-I won"t help anyone, but… Brother, can you only punish the people who should be punished on the account that we"re all family? Don"t force the Feng Family to a dead end?"
"Of course. I"m not someone who willfully kills the innocent."
Feng Yun said, "On the way here from the main building just now, I"ve already gotten someone to cancel your lecture at Cloud City University University and accepted two lectures for you at North City University. The first lecture is tomorrow at two in the afternoon. You can set off for North City tomorrow morning."
"Brother, you…" Feng Xu"s expression suddenly changed.
He didn"t know if he was angry with Feng Yun for deciding for him or worried that something unexpected would happen after he left.
"Rather than staying here and making things difficult, it"s better to leave. If the Feng Family didn"t do anything, I naturally wouldn"t make things difficult for them. If someone from the Feng Family really gets involved, I"ll only target that person and won"t kill them all. You can rest a.s.sured."
