The Atypical Young Lady Has Returned

Chapter 376: Fengling’s Father

“Even so, you should have told me. That’s my father. What if I can find him?” Feng Qin’s eyes were red.

Feng Xiangxiang sobbed silently.

Xi Fengling said calmly, “You don’t know who your husband is.” Her tone was firm.

Feng Xiangxiang was slightly stunned. “H-how did you know?”

“I guessed.”

Then, she asked, “How did you meet him?”

After hesitating for a moment, Feng Xiangxiang slowly said, “I met him on the way home from work one day. He was injured and unconscious at that time. I saved him and brought him home.”

Feng Xiangxiang didn’t say anything else. No matter what, she was still an elder. They were juniors. It wasn’t appropriate to say that in front of juniors.

However, even if she didn’t say it, everyone present could guess it.

It was nothing more than after saving his life, they developed feelings for each other during his recuperation.

“What’s your husband’s name?”

“That’s not only my husband, but also your and Qin’er’s father. If… if he’s still alive, he definitely doesn’t want you to resent him so much.”

“You can blame me, but I don’t want you to blame him. He loves you very much. He almost always took care of you personally when you were just born. He was a cold person who didn’t like to smile, but after you were born, he smiled every day. If he didn’t have no choice, he wouldn’t have…”

Xi Fengling looked calm, but her heart was not so calm.

She interrupted her, “I don’t blame him or you.”

“What’s his name?”

“Xi Mao. His name is Xi Mao.”

Xi Fengling sighed softly after hearing that.

She looked at Yan Jinyu.

She moved her lips to say something, but Yan Jinyu’s hand landed on the back of hers and she patted it.

Xi Fengling calmed down and retracted her words.

“Then, did he mention who his enemies were? There’s no need to go into detail. Did he happen to mention any special people or… special organizations?”

These words were like a final struggle for survival.

Feng Xiangxiang thought for a moment before shaking her head. “No…” She suddenly paused. “I remember now. There was one time he was on the phone when I was about to fall asleep. He seemed to have told the person on the other end that he didn’t want to fight for anything and didn’t want to be enemies with anyone. He only wanted to live a peaceful life.”

“He even said that he knew the rules, but on account of their many years of friendship and the fact that he had once saved the other party, he hoped that the other party would pretend not to know his whereabouts.”

“I didn’t hear it very clearly at that time, but the gist seemed to be like this.”

“W-Why are you asking this?” Feng Xiangxiang asked what Feng Qin wanted to ask.

“I’m just asking. Since I want to know my background, I have to find out what my biological father’s name is and who killed him.”

Was that all?

Feng Qin’s intuition told her otherwise.

Or rather, not entirely.

However, Feng Xiangxiang was suddenly happy when she heard Xi Fengling say that. Then, her eyes reddened again, “Y-you’re willing to acknowledge us, Ling’er?”

“I didn’t say that I wasn’t willing. I appeared in the Feng Family to find out the truth back then. Since there was a reason for what happened back then and it wasn’t what you wanted, and Father never came back because of me, why should I not acknowledge you?”

Feng Xiangxiang was so excited that she couldn’t speak.

Feng Qin was also very excited.

After a long while, Feng Qin spoke first, “Then can I call you Sister in the future?”

“Didn’t you already call me that?”

Only then did Feng Qin realize that she had indeed called her “Sister” a few times.

“N-no,” Feng Xiangxiang suddenly said.

Facing the puzzled gazes, she hurriedly explained to Xi Fengling, “Ling’er, don’t misunderstand. It’s not that Mom doesn’t acknowledge you. You’ve also seen Qin’er and my situation in the Feng Family. Back then, the Feng Family didn’t hesitate to go to Water City and forcefully bring us back because they had designs on Qin’er.”

“They want to use Qin’er to form a marriage alliance to gain benefits for the Feng Family. It’s enough that Qin’er and I are deeply involved. There’s no need for you to get involved.”

“We’ve acknowledged each other in private, but we can’t let outsiders know about our relationship.”

“I’ve already let you down. I can’t implicate you anymore.”

Feng Qin agreed with Feng Xiangxiang. “Mom is right. It’s good that we know our relationship. In front of outsiders, especially the Feng Family, we should interact as friends.”

Xi Fengling looked at them. Although she restrained herself, her faint smile was still seductive. “We haven’t seen each other for so many years. Or rather, we haven’t seen each other since I have my memories. Shouldn’t you ask me how I’ve been all these years?”

The two of them fell silent at the same time.

It wasn’t that they didn’t want to ask. They really wanted to.

They just didn’t dare to ask because they were afraid that she had not been living well all these years.

Without waiting for them to speak, Xi Fengling continued, “Let’s not talk about how I’ve been all these years. Let’s just talk about my recent years. Mom doesn’t know who I am, but you should know, right, Little Feng Qin? Do you think I’m the kind of person who will be controlled by others?”

“The Feng Family doesn’t have the ability to influence my life!”

Mom…

Feng Xiangxiang stared at her.

“W-What did you just call me? Y-you, can you call me again?”

She completely failed to grasp the main point Xi Fengling wanted to express.

Xi Fengling turned to her and called out again without emotion, “Mom.”

“Yes!” Feng Xiangxiang was so excited that she was about to cry again. Feng Qin interrupted her from her surprise.

Feng Qin said, “Sister, are you really not afraid of the Feng Family?”

“It seems like you haven’t heard much of my rumors in the capital. I can even protect the Second Young Master of the Min Family. Why would I be afraid of a mere Feng Family?”

When Yan Jinyu, who was quietly listening to their conversation, heard that, the corners of her lips twitched imperceptibly.

It was true that the Feng Family couldn’t do anything to Meimei, but she protecting Feng?

This was clearly spread by outsiders who did not know about the truth, but she still said it so calmly.

Perhaps sensing Yan Jinyu’s teasing gaze, Xi Fengling’s body froze.

She had forgotten that she had someone who knew the truth by her side.

“Of course I’ve heard about your deeds in the capital. I’m just a little worried. The others in the Feng Family might not be able to do anything to you, but Third Uncle Feng Lun… is the person I mentioned to you before. I’ve only seen him a few times, but I’m inexplicably afraid of him.”

“I’m afraid if he interferes, you won’t be able to handle it.”

“Even if I can’t handle it, have you forgotten who my boyfriend is? Have you forgotten who Beauty Yu is? Have you forgotten who Beauty Yu’s fiancé is?”

They mentioned Yin Jiujin because Yin Jiujin’s fame was greater than theirs and more shocking.

It would take some effort to completely eliminate the Feng Family, but to make the Feng Family unable to do anything to her, not to mention Yin Jiujin, even Beauty Yu and Min Rufeng didn’t need to make a move. She alone was enough.

Indeed, after she said that, Feng Xiangxiang and Feng Qin fell silent.

They looked at Yan Jinyu at the same time.

It was obviously Yan Jinyu’s fiancé—Master Nine’s name was effective again.

“However, I’m not in a hurry to let the Feng Family know my identity now. Beauty Yu and I still have to stay in Cloud City for a while. I don’t want to fall out with the Feng Family for the time being.”

“I’ll talk to the Feng Family after Beauty Yu’s graduation trip is over. I’ll take you two away then. Endure it for a few days.”

Feng Xiangxiang was surprised. “Take us away too?”

“Ling’er, I’ve lived in the Feng Family for so many years. To me, it doesn’t matter if I leave or not. I’m already very happy that you can protect yourself.”

“If, I mean if. If you’re capable enough, just protect your sister. Don’t worry about me.”

Even if she didn’t go out often, she had heard of the famous Min Family in the capital.

Ling’er had just said that her boyfriend was the Second Young Master of the Min Family. Looking at Qin’er, she should also know that there was such a person.

Since Qin’er didn’t say anything, it meant that Second Young Master Min treated Ling’er well.

With Second Young Master Min protecting her and with Miss Yan as her friend and Miss Yan had Master Nine behind her, it wasn’t difficult for Ling’er to protect herself. Perhaps, she could even protect Qin’er.

That was enough.

“You don’t have to worry about this. I have my own plans.”

“Besides, you said that it doesn’t matter if you leave the Feng Family or not. Don’t you want to know who Father’s enemy is? Even if you don’t want to know Father’s identity and why was he enemies with others, don’t you want to know if Father is alive or dead?”

Feng Xiangxiang wanted to know what she said first, but it didn’t affect her too much. Only when she said the last sentence did Feng Xiangxiang widen her eyes.

“You mean your father might still be alive?!”

“He’s missing. But anything is possible before we see his corpse.” She clenched her fists unconsciously.

Still alive?

How was that possible?

If this “Xi Mao” was the “Xi Mao” she had heard about, he would have died when she was eight years old.

“I know a lot of people now and have a lot of friends. I can investigate.”

Feng Xiangxiang was extremely excited. “Alright, alright. Then you’ll arrange it. If you can let your sister and I escape from the Feng Family while ensuring your safety, we’ll do as you say.”

“But the premise is that you have to be safe.”

Feng Qin also said, “Mom is right. Anyway, Mom and I are deeply involved with the Feng Family. We don’t care, but you can’t be involved.”

“I know.”
