Chapter 416
Liu squatted beside Feng Zhongliang and whispered, ”
about a year after miss Jiang se was born, Jiang Zhiyuan said that he was going south to ‘work’. He disappeared without a trace. At that time, Zhou Hui was still very young. She was only a half-grown child, but she had a daughter who was crying and waiting to be fed. She was so desperate that she could not wait for her boyfriend’s return.
The neighbors around her were very sympathetic to her. At that time, she was in a poor situation and lived in a dilapidated alley. It was all thanks to kind-hearted people who gave her old clothes and food.
Everyone said that she had been abandoned by Jiang Zhiyuan because there was no news of him after he left.
At this time, combined with Jiang SE’s age, Feng Zhongliang believed that he had already deduced what kind of shady business Jiang Zhiyuan was ‘working’ for.
before he left, he said that he wanted to do a big business. After he was done, he would return and marry Zhou Hui in glory. He would give his daughter a good future. It was precisely because of Jiang Zhiyuan’s bold words and his nonchalance after that that left a deep impression on many people.
This ‘married couple’ who had yet to register their marriage matched each other in terms of appearance. The man was handsome and the woman was handsome. It was said that Jiang Zhiyuan was very handsome back then. Even though he already had a ‘wife and daughter’, there were still many girls who threw flirtatious glances at him when they were young.
Later, he irresponsibly ran away, leaving the mother and daughter behind, which made many people sigh.
“Master.”
Liu called out worriedly, afraid that Feng Zhongliang would not be able to take the blow.
Everyone in the Feng family could see how much he liked Jiang se. Xiao Liu sighed. If he could, he did not wish to find out such a result. However, with the information before him, he could not let his luck run out.
“Jiang Zhiyuan’s so-called” going south “should be referring to going to Hong Kong to do a big business, Huanhuan.”
“That’s enough,” Feng Zhongliang’s voice was a little hoarse. He called out to Xiao Liu and stopped him from speaking.
“They probably wanted to kidnap miss Feng Nan. The timing of Jiang SE’s appearance is too coincidental. She’s also using young master PEI’s name to get close to you, Yingluo.”
He continued to speak, and Feng Zhongliang seemed to fly into a rage. He slapped the sofa and said sternly, ”
“I said enough!”
Liu’s lips moved, but Feng Zhongliang seemed to be angered by him. He sat up and said,
“I’m old, but I’m not blind. I know what I’m doing.” He was furious.
“Each and every one of them won’t let me be free from worry. I can clearly see what kind of person Sese is! It’s just that I’m old and can’t see clearly. I’d rather be scammed by an outsider than my family not asking about it and just staring at my stuff!”
When he said this, Xiao Liu’s face and ears turned red. She was afraid that something would happen to him if his blood pressure rose due to his agitation. At the same time, she was surprised that he would be so protective of Jiang se.
The evidence was right in front of them. The meaning behind Feng Zhongliang’s words proved that he was still biased toward Jiang se.
“If she had the heart, at least she would be willing to make me happy. What about Feng Nan? After I moved out, I didn’t even call back to say hello. I have plenty of money, so I’m not afraid of people lying to me. Even if they are willing to do me a favor, it’s a lot of effort!” He pointed at the door and threw a tantrum at Xiao Liu.
“Get out!”
He didn’t want to listen to Xiao Liu’s words at this moment. He understood the logic and was not a child. Xiao Liu’s words were extremely harsh to him, and he instinctively didn’t want to believe them.
Feng Zhongliang was human too. No matter how strict he was, he could still have emotions. After spending so much time with Jiang se, he found it hard to believe that this child had ulterior motives.
Xiao Liu lowered her head and saw that he was so angry that his face was red. She quickly calmed him down.
“Don’t get too excited,”
Xiao Liu’s heart ached when he heard the old man’s words. It also proved that he longed for the loneliness of family deep in his heart.
After he finished shouting, he lowered his head. The old man who held the real power of Zhongnan industries was now extremely thin. Without the layers of halos around him, and without the majestic expression on his body, he was just an ordinary person.
Everything was laid out in front of him, waiting for him to make a decision.
The room was eerily quiet. Feng Zhongliang gritted his teeth. He could not believe that Jiang se had other intentions.
He thought that he was a good judge of character. Having been in business for so long, he had seen all kinds of people. If her performance was all an act, then it was indeed too real.
He recalled the stack of documents he had read earlier. All of them pointed out that something strange might have happened to Jiang se. Those things might have something to do with Feng Nan.
If Jiang Zhiyuan had not been dragged into this, perhaps none of this would have happened.
But was she really acting? Feng Zhongliang didn’t think so.
A person could act for a while, but he didn’t believe that she could act for such a long time. Moreover, why would she lie to an old man like him? He was old and had a bad temper. He often lost his temper at her, so she didn’t need to tolerate it.
Besides, if she was really acting, she should have wrapped up these things and not let him find out. Otherwise, his health was not good. If something happened due to his anger, she would not benefit and would probably be responsible.
She was dating PEI Yi, and PEI Yi liked her very much. He had already proposed to her and even had the intention to graduate early and participate in the drill for her.
If Jiang se were to marry into the PEI family, why would she care about the things in her hands?
He had thought through all these questions very clearly, but Xiao Liu still said, ”
“I’m just afraid that she’s just Qianqian who’s trying to avenge Jiang Zhiyuan by angering you on purpose.”
“Hehe.” Feng Zhongliang laughed coldly and ordered him,
“Call Jiang se immediately!”
He didn’t believe Xiao Liu’s words. He didn’t believe that this girl’s concern for him was just to make him angry.
Feng Zhongliang wanted to know if Jiang se would be gloating or extremely worried when she found out that he was in poor health.
At the end of the day, he wanted to use his body to bet on whether he was Jiang SE’s ‘enemy’ or ‘family’.
In his life, he had never been so passive. Back then, he was in a storm of bullets. Later, the business world was in crisis. Now, he had to hand over the initiative to control his emotions to a little girl.
It was only the afternoon. Xiao Liu followed his instructions. After hesitating for a while, she gritted her teeth and called Jiang se.
In the past, when he called Jiang se on Feng Zhongliang’s behalf, he would be overjoyed. However, at this moment, he felt extremely heavy.
Every second of waiting for the call to go through felt like torture to the two of them. When the phone rang seven or eight times, Jiang se finally picked it up.
“Grandpa?”
Her voice was gentle and soft, and Feng Zhongliang’s eyes were hot. He remembered what Xiao Liu had said before, and he remembered that he firmly refused to believe that she was trying to harm him. That kind of defensive armor fell apart at her soft call.
...
“Wretched girl!” He shouted, “where have you been? You didn’t call me for a few days, and you didn’t even ask if I was dead!”
He knew that he was being unreasonable, but at this moment, he simply couldn’t control his agitated emotions.
Jiang se could hear the excitement in his voice. Her heart was in her throat as she asked anxiously, ”
“What’s wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Is her blood pressure high? Is your heart in pain? Did you call the doctor? Did you not take your medicine on time?”
She asked a few questions in a row, and Feng Zhongliang held the phone tightly, tears rolling in his eyes.
The anxiety in Jiang SE’s voice was not fake. He could hear it clearly. She was truly worried about her body. This realization made him purse his lips instinctively and reveal a relaxed smile. He blinked hard.
“Now you know how to be anxious? what were you doing earlier?”
