Chapter 491: What Should They Say, Was He Still Young and Strong?
If the Jiang family was the subject of gossip in the upper circle, it would not be wise to invite the Jiang family over for now. The Feng family might come under fire too.
Feng Zhiyi obviously wouldn’t let such a thing happen, so he called Jiang Chenglang to postpone the discussion.
Everyone was smart. As soon as Feng Zhiyi contacted him, Jiang Chenglang knew the reason.
It was just as well. He wasn’t too happy about bringing Jiang Yu over.
However, it was a pity that he missed a chance to test Feng Linbai.
Everyone caught wind of the postponement. After all, wasn’t the Jiang family now considered blemished and sullied, so it would be wiser to exclude them from any marriage plans.
But, the Feng family also had an illegitimate child.
Such an obvious double standard…
However, since the double standard was the Feng family, no one dared to say anything against the Feng family.
However, at this moment, a list was suddenly revealed.
It was the list of all the illegitimate children of the Feng family.
Everyone was shocked.
They knew that there were a lot of them, but they didn’t know that there were so many!
The head of the Feng family was really… quite strong?
What should they say, was he still young and strong?
He even had a child of just a few years old!
What did that mean?
A few years ago…
They didn’t know what the matriarch of the Feng family would think when she saw this list.
Tsk tsk tsk, another good show…
…
At this moment, at the Feng family.
Zhao Ningzhen sat on the sofa with a solemn expression on her face. She did not say a word.
Feng Zhiyi sat on the other side.
The younger generation of the Feng family did not dare to sit. They stood there, not even daring to breathe loudly when they saw the tense atmosphere in front of them.
In the past, Feng Linbai had been blind. For the sake of convenience, he had always sat in a wheelchair. Now that he was standing at the side, he suddenly missed his wheelchair.
Based on Feng Zhiyi and Zhao Ningzhen’s dilly-dallying, who knew how many points they were planning to get.
They were really bored just standing there.
The juniors were watching. Although he was sorry toward Zhao Ningzhen, Feng Zhiyi also felt embarrassed to be humiliated like this by Zhao Ningzhen.
When men were rich and powerful, it was normal for them to flirt outside. It wasn’t like Zhao Ningzhen didn’t know.
She should just turn a blind eye as she usually did.
After all, if she really couldn’t tolerate it, she would have divorced him a long time ago. She just didn’t want to give up the position of the Feng family’s mistress.
Although Feng Zhiyi was fooling around outside, he still kept the matriarch position for her. He was already very worthy of her.
Thinking of this, Feng Zhiyi’s voice sank as he asked, “How much longer are you going to keep this up?”
Zhao Ningzhen didn’t expect Feng Zhiyi to say such words the moment he opened his mouth. He didn’t have any intention of coaxing her at all. The moment he opened his mouth, he was blaming her!
She smiled coldly and asked in return, “Do you think I’m making a scene?”
Feng Zhiyi’s face was still sullen. “If there’s anything, just say it in private. There’s no need to make it public and embarrass everyone. You’ve been my wife for so many years, and you can’t even handle this small thing? Don’t you know how to control your emotions?”
Zhao Ningzhen found it funny. “Weren’t you the one who embarrassed me first?”
Feng Zhiyi reminded her, “So… you must have made things clear in a place like this today?”
Zhao Ningzhen said unyieldingly, “Of course.”
Feng Zhiyi felt like his wife couldn’t hold herself back anymore because she felt so embarrassed!
So many people were laughing at her behind her back. So what if she was sitting in the position of the Feng matriarch? She was just a decoration.
Her husband was sowing his seeds everywhere outside.. Perhaps one day, she, the matriarch, would be replaced by a younger and more beautiful lady!
Chapter 492: Illegitimate Children
“If you only want an answer, I can promise you that your position as matriarch of the Feng family will not be given to anyone else.”
After being married to Zhao Ningzhen for so many years, both of them knew what the other was thinking.
Zhao Ningzhen had to make things clear so openly. Wasn’t she just waiting for this guarantee?
Zhao Ningzhen smiled bitterly.
After so many years, this was all she could ask for. She had to accept it gratefully.
Without a man, money was fine.
But now, what was more important was to seek a guarantee for her children.
Zhao Ningzhen’s eyes narrowed. “How are you going to deal with those illegitimate children?”
Everyone else present also wanted to ask this question, but Zhao Ningzhen asked it first.
That’s right. This kind of question was most suitable for Zhao Ningzhen to ask.
Feng Zhiyi said with certainty, “They won’t enter the Feng family.”
Zhao Ningzhen suddenly said lightly, “It’s because you’ve already chosen the person you want from among them, right?”
As she finished speaking, everyone’s eyes seemed to fall on Feng Linbai.
As the only illegitimate child who had successfully entered the Feng family’s main residence, Feng Linbai’s existence was definitely out of place in this family.
And now they were talking about such a special topic, his situation was even more awkward and sensitive.
Feng Linbai himself did not seem to mind.
He leaned against the sofa, one leg upright, one leg slightly bent, and closed his eyes.
He seemed to have sensed that someone was looking at him and slowly opened his eyes, revealing his extremely dark pupils.
If it was not for the fact that everyone knew that Feng Linbai’s eyes had regained their sight, there would really be an illusion that he was still unable to see.
It was as if he had not noticed what they had just said. He revealed a stunned expression. Then, he lowered his head slightly and said with a chuckle, “Isn’t that right?”
In an instant, Zhao Ningzhen’s gaze tightened.
He had clearly heard everything!
He had even responded to her question!
This sentence had a provocative meaning. Zhao Ningzhen’s expression was restrained, and Feng Wenshu’s gaze on Feng Linbai was also filled with displeasure. Feng Qiongfang frowned slightly, but Feng Le’an still had a carefree look on his face.
The matter of his father having illegitimate children had long been an open secret.
What was so strange about it?
Even if there were a few more people, Feng Le’an felt that everyone present should have a clear understanding of his father’s level of deviant behavior, right?
Feng Zhiyi’s expression didn’t change. “I’ve already said it clearly. You’ve been in charge for so many years, so you definitely know what to do next.
“I don’t want any more rumors to appear. Do you understand what I mean?”
Zhao Ningzhen’s lips curled into a mocking smile. “I understand.”
How could she not understand?
Wasn’t he saying that he would clean up the mess and she should just follow behind?
He had to show his magnanimity outside and not be affected at all. Wasn’t the secret to a marriage was doing it and cherishing it?
After saying this, Feng Zhiyi called out, “Linbai, come with me to the study.”
Feng Linbai stood up straight. “Yes, Father.”
He followed Feng Zhiyi to the study room, and the others dispersed.
When they reached the room, Feng Le’an looked at He Sihui’s serious expression. His eyes darted around, and he suddenly thought of something. He immediately pounced forward, grabbed He Sihui’s hand, and said sincerely, “Honey, you have to believe me.. I will never cheat on you! I will never cheat on you!”
Chapter 493: His Weakness
He Sihui: “Oh?”
Feng Le’an raised four fingers to show his determination. “I’m different from those scumbags!”
He Sihui: “So you’re saying that father is a scumbag.”
Feng Le’an:”… that’s not what I meant…”
He glanced at He Sihui with his small eyes and scratched his head anxiously. “Honey, you know that my language skills aren’t very good, so I don’t know how to express this…”
He Sihui suddenly asked, “Then, what were those love letters you wrote to me before?”
Feng Le’an was stunned. “Ah, that…”
Could he say that, at first, he had copied it after the internet?
After copying over and over again, he realized that everything was the same after reading all the love letters on the internet, so he began to hire people to write it for him at a high price…
But of course, he couldn’t let He Sihui know about this!
Feng Le’an rubbed his head again. “At that time, I still had a lot of hair, so I could still write when I grabbed it. Now, it’s getting lesser and lesser, so…”
He even winked at her, implying that she should understand him!
He Sihui was silent.
This fool, did he really think that she didn’t know?
It was just a sudden thought to trick him.
Forget it, I’ll just continue pretending that I don’t know.
He Sihui changed the topic. “You said that Rui’er likes that girl from the Jiang family. Is that true?”
Feng Le’an didn’t say anything. He hid outside the door and eavesdropped for a long time. Feng Tian Rui, who was disgusted by Feng Le’an’s lewd words, pushed the door open and walked in. He shouted, “It’s not true, Mom, I’m innocent!”
Feng Le’an: ???
How did Rui’er appear so punctually?
…
In the study room.
Although Feng Zhiyi had specifically asked Feng Linbai to come over, after the two of them entered the study room, he left Feng Linbai to the side and began to practice calligraphy by himself.
Forty minutes passed as he finished writing a few pieces of calligraphy.
Feng Zhiyi didn’t say anything, and neither did Feng Linbai.
He had his hands in his pockets. At first, he was still standing and watching Feng Zhiyi practice his calligraphy. Later on, when he felt bored, he raised his head and walked over to the sofa to sit down.
Only then did Feng Zhiyi finally say, “Did I ask you to sit down?”
Feng Linbai asked back, “Then did you ask me not to sit down?”
Feng Zhiyi was defeated. Feng Linbai said directly, “Then that’s it.”
He leaned back, his posture lazy and relaxed as if this study had become his territory.
Feng Zhiyi stopped writing and put the brush on the inkstone. He did not look at him, but his words were directed at him.
“You did this.”
Feng Linbai supported his chin. “I’ve done so many things. Which one are you talking about?”
Feng Zhiyi said, “You admit it just like that?”
Feng Linbai said nonchalantly, “Because I’m too lazy to waste time.”
Feng Zhiyi frowned.
Wasn’t Feng Linbai’s subtext saying that beating around the bush with him was too much of a waste of time, so he just admitted it?
However, Feng Zhiyi also knew that if he revealed too obvious an emotion in his conversation with Feng Linbai, he would be at a disadvantage.
He spread out another piece of paper and picked up a pen. “You’re too anxious.”
Feng Linbai: “Oh?”
Feng Zhiyi did not even raise his head. “Isn’t this just letting me know that the little girl from the Jiang family has become your weakness? Are you going to deal with me because of her?”
Feng Linbai smiled. “If it wasn’t for her, I would have dealt with you too. Isn’t this something I’ve known for a long time?”
Feng Zhiyi also smiled. “You have just a little bit of influence and you want to swallow the tiger in one gulp. You’re being a little bold..”
