Chapter 247 - Daydreaming (1/2)

“Restrictions?” Feng Tianlan looked at him quizzically. When had she ever enforced any restrictions, and what sort?

Tu Xiang furiously slammed both palms on the stone table and glared at her. “Nobody out there will sell us anything now. Do you dare deny that it was you who did this?”

Even though he was technically still living in Feng Manor, the four of them had been forced to stay in the rundown courtyard where Feng Tianlan used to live. There were only four rooms and very little space. They weren’t given any maids or staff, and their food was the same as the servants’. Eventually, they even stopped receiving any food.

For the sake of resuming his plot to take over the Fengs, he endured this. He was okay with buying his servants and cooking his meals. Even if he couldn’t use the family money, his savings were sufficient to live on.

All this, he could bear!

But today, the servant who had gone out to buy groceries had come back emptyhanded because all the merchants had refused to sell him anything. They’d refused even to sell him one leaf!

The merchants had said that they refused to sell to him because of Feng Tianlan. As long as a person had anything to do with Tu Xiang, except for Feng Tianlan herself, the merchants weren’t going to sell that person anything.

“Refused to sell you anything?” Feng Tianlan raised an eyebrow. She didn’t know anything about this. Could it be her uncle’s doing?

“Don’t pretend that you don’t know. Go and tell those people that we are a very close father and daughter pair and that we get along well. Whatever I’m buying is for Feng Manor,” Tu Xiang commanded Feng Tianlan in an authoritative voice.

Feng Tianlan was behind all of this – she definitely was!

Feng Tianlan wiped her mouth and straightened her clothes. “Chuling, it’s time for us to go to the Academy.”

“Feng Tianlan, did you hear what I said?!” Tu Xiang was so angry that he roared at her. How could she ignore him? He was her father, after all.
