Chapter 996 - Under Huge Pressure (1/2)
996 Under Huge Pressure
As long as they could clarify this, he believed that they could definitely find out which school Qing Qing had been transferred to.
Feng Liang was so furious that he smashed the teacup. “Don’t talk about your auntie anymore. She has been spoiled by the maternal family. After her marriage, she has also been spoiled by your uncle-in-law.”
All this while, Feng Liang was aware of why Old Master Feng raised up Feng Cheng to be so naive. It was nonetheless because Feng Cheng would be akin to spilled water after she was married. He did not want Feng Cheng to spare too much thought for her husband’s family and then prod all the benefits to the s.h.i.+ family.
If Feng Cheng was not that clear-minded to focus on her immediate family, she would definitely take care of the Feng family, which was her maternal family.
Feng Liang felt angriest about one matter. Twenty years had pa.s.sed. Given s.h.i.+ Peng’s intelligence, he must have seen through this arrangement and intention of the Feng family.
As a husband, he had not caused any change in his wife’s temperament during the past twenty years. What was s.h.i.+ Peng thinking? Only s.h.i.+ Peng would know.
Feng Liang was furious because the Feng family had raised Feng Cheng to be like that. After she was married into the s.h.i.+ family, s.h.i.+ Peng did not change her character at all. As a result, despite the fact that she could almost be a grandmother soon, Feng Cheng’s character and intellect remained exactly the same as when she was a lady in her maternal home. She was of no help to the s.h.i.+ family. Similarly, she was unable to help the Feng family either. Feng Liang was very upset and worried about this.
At this point in time, if Feng Cheng was able to help even a little, Feng Liang would not have felt so depressed and angry.
During the National Day central authorities meeting this year, although s.h.i.+ Peng did not come to the capital to partic.i.p.ate, the chairman mentioned and praised him during the meeting.
Judging from this situation, Feng Liang knew that s.h.i.+ Peng could definitely rise in the ranks.
Many years ago, s.h.i.+ Peng had done very well in the army. He was even the strongest opponent of Zhai Yaohui at the time when the latter was promoted to chief.
Unexpectedly, s.h.i.+ Peng’s performance would still be so eye-catching and outstanding after he left the army and fully took on a political role.
The Feng family definitely did not find a wrong uncle-in-law.
The problem was how could the Feng family make s.h.i.+ Peng, this uncle-in-law, side with and help them more?
“Are we going to ask auntie now so that she can check with uncle-in-law? I feel that Qing Qing is quite close with uncle-in-law. Although auntie doesn’t know, it doesn’t mean that uncle-in-law doesn’t.”
Feng Meng felt that his family’s actions were too strange. Clearly, this was a family matter. Why did he have to tail Qiao Nan and observe her in order to find out s.h.i.+ Qing’s whereabouts?
The sequence had been reversed, hadn’t it?
“Fine.” Feng Liang could not help but admit that Feng Meng’s words made sense. “I have also been muddled by your auntie to have made such a huge mistake.”
They were the initiators of this. They told Feng Cheng that Qiao Nan might be a very scheming young lady and Qing Qing was completely not Qiao Nan’s match.
It was true that they had spoken about this too much. They caused Feng Cheng to believe them. Even they, themselves, had forgotten that they actually had not interacted much with Qiao Nan. As such, they were not certain whether Qiao Nan was really so evil.
As Feng Cheng was muddled by the Feng family, her most immediate reaction when her daughter went missing was to blame it on Qiao Nan, thinking that Qiao Nan must have been the one who had hidden her daughter and wanted to harm her.
“Uncle, since that is the case, I shall return to the office directly. There are more projects that are under discussion recently. My dad will not be able to cope alone.”
“Fine, go back then.” If Feng Liang wished to progress further, he still had to rely on his second brother to give him financial support.
Qiao Nan gradually calmed down from the excitement of being the first one of her cohort to join the party. She was oblivious to what had happened. She also did not know that Feng Meng’s impression of her was quietly changing.
