CHAPTER 252: CHAPTER 252: MEETING THE PARENTS

"I didn’t deceive you, absolutely not, I swear," Feng Jiuzun swore once again.

However, he saw the disdain in Ningwan’s eyes.

Biting his teeth, he said, "Fine, I promise you, I’ll take you to meet my family."

Ningwan smirked, "Let’s go today, discuss things early so we can get married sooner."

"Today is impossible, I need to let my family know first. Tomorrow, we’ll go tomorrow, it’s too sudden, I have to inform them first," Feng Jiuzun said.

Ningwan thought about it and compromised, "Fine, tomorrow it is, no later."

Feng Jiuzun nodded.

Actually, he knew in his heart that it was not appropriate to meet his family at this time.

Whether Ningwan truly liked him, he didn’t really know; perhaps it was just a scheme she was plotting.

Yet, he didn’t want to give up such a good opportunity.

Even knowing that Ningwan might be deceiving him, he wanted to take the gamble.

But recklessly bringing Ningwan home was something he dared not do.

Regardless of whether his parents might agree, his grandfather would definitely not agree.

So, he called Feng Huai beforehand, hoping his second uncle could help him.

"Tell me, where are you now?" Feng Huai asked.

Feng Jiuzun was very cautious, "Second uncle, just tell me if you’re going to help or not, why ask where I am? Anyway, I’m going to bring the person home, you’d better inform grandfather early so he won’t get overly angry at the time and blame it on me. I’ve already given a heads-up, so if he does get angry, it’s not my fault, it’s your lack of care."

"You brat, is this how you ask your second uncle for help? Wait till your dad hears this, he’ll break your legs." Feng Huai cursed angrily.

Feng Jiuzun said, "Even if he breaks my legs, that’s what I’d say. Anyway, you’d better inform grandfather first; I’m bringing her back soon, and make sure that grandfather agrees. If he doesn’t agree, I’ll run away from home."

"You’re running away? Then go ahead!" Feng Huai said furiously.

Unable to get through hard tactics, Feng Jiuzun tried a softer approach, "Second uncle, I’m begging you, help me this once. You’ve always cared for me since I was young, now care for me one more time, I really like her."

"Like my foot, haven’t you liked fewer girls growing up? Which one didn’t you toss aside after a few days? Those girls before could be settled with a bit of money. But this one’s different, this is Ningwan, Zhan Hanjue’s wife, are you tired of living trying to snatch Zhan Hanjue’s wife?"

"What about Zhan Hanjue? Our Feng Family still fears him? He rules Jiangcheng with an iron hand, but he can’t overshadow our Feng Family. Second uncle, surely you’re not afraid of him, are you?" Feng Jiuzun deliberately used reverse psychology.

However, Feng Huai is a cunning fox, having experienced more than him.

Could he not hear the underlying message?

Immediately snorted coldly, "Don’t use reverse psychology on me, it doesn’t work. Our Feng Family doesn’t fear Zhan Hanjue, but there’s no need to provoke him over this. For a woman, making Feng Family and Zhan Family enemies, you think you’re Wu Sangui, angered for a beauty?"

"No matter what, I’m definitely bringing her home. Tomorrow we’ll go, whether you agree or not." Feng Jiuzun hung up the phone angrily.

On the other side, Feng Huai was also livid, his face turning pale.

He turned and saw Chen Tan sitting inside, sighing with a headache.

Fortunately, he always remained wise, not marrying or having children.

At least this was just a nephew; if it were a son, wouldn’t he be angered to death?

Even having just a nephew was troubling enough.

After all, in the third generation of the Feng Family, he was the sole successor.

It seems he’ll need to talk to his elder brother and sister-in-law.

They’re not too old, with proper health management, perhaps they could still have a second child!

"Mr. Feng, finished with the call?"

Feng Huai entered, Chen Tan asked with a smile.

"Mm," Feng Huai nodded.

Chen Tan asked, "Was it Young Master Feng?"

"It was him calling, he wants to bring Ningwan back to meet the family," Feng Huai said.

Chen Tan: "..."

"How is that possible."

"I also said, how could it be possible. But, this is the truth; he wants to bring Ningwan home to meet the family, and claims it was Ningwan’s request. Ningwan’s failed marriage with Zhan Hanjue was due to the family’s opposition. He doesn’t want Ningwan to feel sad, so he’s decided to bring her home to meet the family and give her assurance," Feng Huai said sarcastically.

His words meant to shift all responsibility to Ningwan.

After all, Ningwan is a remarried woman, while his nephew is an innocent single boy.

A remarried woman deceiving an innocent big boy, who’s more innocent is obvious.

Chen Tan immediately said, "I’ll immediately inform our boss about this."

"Mm, let him know right away, tomorrow Feng Jiuzun will bring her back, let him block the gate, don’t let them enter the Feng Family," Feng Huai said.

This way, it saves him from explaining to the old man.

Feng Jiuzun, that brat, might not fear having a leg broken by the old man, but he did.

After all, his elder brother and sister-in-law were always away, and he practically raised Feng Jiuzun over the years.

If the old man misunderstood that he spoiled his nephew, he’d really have grievances with nowhere to express.

"Can we know Young Master Feng’s address today?" Chen Tan asked again.

Feng Huai shook his head, "I don’t know, that brat is alert, unwilling to say."

Actually, he didn’t ask at all.

If they were outside, what if Zhan Hanjue goes over and breaks his leg?

After all, a man cannot tolerate having his wife snatched away.

So, let him bring Ningwan back to Jiangcheng.

Although Jiangcheng is Zhan Hanjue’s territory, our Feng Family doesn’t fear him, and can safeguard to some extent.

"Okay, I understand, thank you, Mr. Feng." Chen Tan stood up to leave.

Feng Huai was too lazy to stand up and send him off, ordering the secretary to see him out.

After Chen Tan left, he immediately called Zhan Hanjue.

Zhan Hanjue continued the search there while arranging transportation back to Jiangcheng, preparing to intercept them.

After finishing the call with Feng Huai, Feng Jiuzun informed Ningwan that they would return to Jiangcheng to meet his family early the next morning.

Ningwan finally showed a satisfied smile and began eating seriously.

Feng Jiuzun propped his chin, looking at her.

He liked her more the longer he looked.

The way one eats doesn’t make much difference.

Yet Ningwan ate with such elegance.

In truth, Feng Jiuzun had seen many girls eat elegantly, his ex-ex-girlfriend was a cellist.

Not to mention eating, even speaking with grace.

But in Feng Jiuzun’s eyes, she didn’t compare to Ningwan’s charm.

Is this truly love acting blindly?

When you like someone, even her most ungraceful actions seem adorable.

"You set up the auction, so you must know who bought the Thousand-year-old Tai Sui?" Ningwan suddenly asked.
