Chapter 152 - The First Elder's Condition (2)
“Big Brother Feng, why did you arrange for us to sit at the same table?” Leng Ruoxue asked Feng Moran softly. Big Brother Feng should know that I don’t like getting involved with these people, right?
“This was the first elder’s idea. He said that we young people should interact more,” Feng Moran said helplessly. In fact, his eldest uncle had already been controlled by the first elder. Now, everything in the entire Feng family was under the first elder’s control except for his grandfather, who was in seclusion.
“Different paths lead to different plans,” Leng Ruoxue said lightly. They were not on the same channel, so there was no way to communicate.
“Xue’er, the dishes are actually all your favorite,” Freak said from Leng Ruoxue’s other side as he watched the dishes being served one after another.
“Oh.” Leng Ruoxue nodded and looked at Feng Moran. Is the Feng family’s first elder showing me goodwill?
“Everyone, thank you for gracing us with your presence today. This old man would like to propose a toast to everyone.” The Feng family’s first elder drained his cup in a forthright manner.
“First Elder is too polite,” someone said.
“Yes!”
While everyone was eating, Leng Ruoxue, who was sitting at the neighboring table, quietly sized up the first elder of the Feng family. This first elder had good facial features, looked kind, and was slightly chubby. He was not tall, but the shrewdness in his eyes couldn’t be concealed. Moreover, this first elder was a Spiritual Supremacy.
She had long heard that the first elder of the Feng family didn’t care about anything. But for some reason, after Big Brother Feng returned to the Feng family, the first elder, who had always been inactive, suddenly became aggressive. First, he grounded the young master of the Feng family, and then he seized the power of the acting patriarch. No one knew what the first elder’s motive was, but they heard that the first elder treated Big Brother Feng quite well.
“Miss Leng, are you not satisfied with the food today?” The Feng family’s first elder walked over after sensing Leng Ruoxue’s scrutinizing gaze.
“Of course not! I’m very satisfied.” Leng Ruoxue was instead displeased with the people at her table.
“But Miss Leng didn’t even eat,” the first elder said very honestly, and his eyes flashed. This is a cunning little fox!
“Hehe, I almost forgot to eat after seeing First Elder’s heroic appearance,” Leng Ruoxue said nonsense without the slightest embarrassment.
“Miss Leng is really good with words,” the first elder said with a smile, and his already small eyes narrowed even more.
“Thank you for the compliment, First Elder.”
“Miss Leng, please enjoy. I won’t disturb you any further.” Then the first elder returned to his seat.
Leng Ruoxue looked at the table full of dishes. She picked up her chopsticks and was just about to take a piece of fish when it was snatched away. When she wanted to take another piece, it was snatched away again.
“What do you mean by this?” Leng Ruoxue questioned directly with a cold face, feeling very displeased.
“I don’t mean anything. I just want to eat.” Ye Mei looked at Leng Ruoxue cockily.
“Xue’er, I’ll get you a piece. Let’s not bicker with a pig.” Freak quickly coaxed her and placed a piece of meat on her plate.
“That’s right. There’s no need to make a fuss with a pig. We have to let the pig eat more to fatten it up for the kill,” Leng Ruoxue said mockingly.
“Haha, haha.” Her words made Feng Da laugh uncontrollably.
After hearing what Leng Ruoxue said, the others held back their laughter for the sake of the Ye family’s face, but their trembling shoulders betrayed them.
“Damn it! Who are you calling a pig?” Ye Meihuo roared. Was Leng Ruoxue looking for trouble?
“Don’t you know? Is there a need to ask?” Leng Ruoxue asked in return as she looked at the plate full of food in front of Ye Mei.
“Miss Leng, isn’t it too much to call a girl a pig?” Ye Ming, who was sitting at the neighboring table, said with some displeasure.
“Father, Leng Ruoxue is finding trouble with me. You have to uphold justice for your daughter!” Ye Mei became full of confidence when she saw her father backing her up.
“Is this a classic case of the guilty suing the other party first? There are so many pairs of eyes watching. Everyone knows who the one finding trouble is. There’s no need to argue,” Leng Ruoxue said calmly, not paying attention to this father and daughter’s acting at all. Despicable people doing bad things was not worth mentioning.
“Leng Ruoxue, do you mean I’ve wronged you?” Ye Mei said aggrievedly.
“Miss Ye, I don’t mean anything. But you can continue if you’re not afraid of embarrassment. I won’t entertain you!” Leng Ruoxue said coldly with disdain in her eyes.
“Let’s go back!” Leng Ruoxue stood up, glanced at the first elder, and then turned to leave. She came to see a joke, not to be treated as one.
“Okay.” Freak and the other two quickly stood up and left with Leng Ruoxue.
“Xue’er, wait for me.” Feng Moran chased after her.
“Xue’er, I’m so sorry.” Feng Moran caught up with Leng Ruoxue and the others at the door. His face was full of guilt. I shouldn’t have gotten Xue’er to come.
“Big Brother Feng, what are you saying? This isn’t your fault. The Ye family wants to find trouble with me,” Leng Ruoxue comforted.
“I’ll go back with you.” Feng Moran looked at Leng Ruoxue.
“Big Brother Feng, you are the host,” Leng Ruoxue reminded. How could the host be as casual as a guest!
“It doesn’t matter. I don’t care.”
“Big Brother Feng, Feng Qingran is dead, and you might become the Feng family’s young master,” Leng Ruoxue said with realization. In her opinion, the first elder’s actions had already explained his intentions.
“Xue’er, I’m not interested in becoming the young master of the Feng family. I swore to follow you forever,” Feng Moran explained anxiously.
“Big Brother Feng, I understand. But I really don’t mind you becoming the Feng family’s young master,” Leng Ruoxue expressed her thoughts.
“But I really don’t want to be the young master,” Feng Moran said with a slight headache. In fact, he vaguely knew what the first elder was thinking, but he had been pretending to be stupid.
“Big Brother Feng, think about it carefully! We’ll go back first,” Leng Ruoxue advised, not wanting him to regret it in the future.
“Okay, you go back first. I’ll be back tomorrow,” Feng Moran said quickly.
