Chapter 1090 - Unrealistic Love Story.
Chapter 1090 – Unrealistic Love Story.
It was just then when Feng Yi Lan entered, she saw the woman playing her sweet white lotus trick. It was not too hard for her to guess who she was as just after her white lotus play; her Third Uncle came to call her name will all so love and respect. Pretending along with her to make her appearance in the family gathering too casual.
"How are you not wrong to invite her here, Third Uncle? Wasn't this a family gathering planned between just our Feng family members? How come after so many years I still do not remember Zhangs becoming one of us?"
Not able to control herself out of curiosity, Feng Yi Lan asked before slowly taking a nonchalant stroll inside. Her lips curved upwards clearly complimenting the suspicion her eyes were displaying at the front, looking alternately between the two people.
Whenthey heard that sleek voice, people turned to look at her while finally seeing her daughter appear Zhen Qinrou was excited. She has something important to talk about to her today. And now that she was here, she would definitely be talking to her. But her brows tug in a frown when she saw the rebellious attitude like that in her.
"Yi Lan, your Third Uncle was talking to your father. Interrupting elders like this is not something I have taught you. Come and take your seat first." Zhen Qinrou said in a reprimanding tone.
But her words like that didn't bring much change in the attitude of Yi Lan. Turning to her mother she just smiled at her reprimands before saying, all in a casual tone that doesn't turn their relation suspicious. "Ma, you have not taught me anything since I have never been around you. I have liked to be around Elder Sister since young and she has taught me well to ask my elders all confidently until I didn't get to understand things properly."
"So, asking Third Uncle today, I don't think there is an issue. After all, if not Third Uncle who else could explain to me the things happening here today." She said before turning back to look at the man, whose agitation could clearly be seen on his face.
Zhen Qinrou's fingers clenched on her sides. This was too much. She never thought that her own daughter wouldn't give her any face in front of others. But did she really think that insulting her like this would help the situation? The relatives have already brought the girl here to make Shufen agree to her today. Now, none would be giving away their plans. And to maintain peace in the family, even Feng Yu Hao would not be able to side up with his son.
Feng Yi Ran smiled on the side. She never knew that her trained younger sister would someday get this savage in front of the elders. But she was not too surprised because since young she knew how much this little one adored his brother. How could she even let people plot against him?
"Yi Lan, you are too young so you might not be aware of the Zhang family too much. But since you have asked today, being an elder, I will tell you. Zhangs has always had a very deep relationship with us. Be it as a friend, an investor, or a financial advisor, they have always been there for us without having any expectations in return. Don't you feel that's enough for them to make one of us?"
Feng Da Zhong said and everyone agreed with his words. All of them heard that the relationships run deep between the Fengs and Zhangs. And now that they have heard the man say the same, they can't doubt it.
Feng Yi Lan smiled. Although she wanted to chuckle at his words, since she had credited all her upbringing, she couldn't behave out of her manner. So just giving a smile, she stared at her uncle to say. "Third Uncle, you described the relationship so well that for a moment I almost thought that I was hearing some unrealistic love story."
"Unrealistic love story?" Feng Da Zhong didn't understand the pun in her words, so frowning he asked. To which Feng Yi Lan looked around before saying with a nod.
"Of course, a very unrealistic love story. After all, who in this country would believe that the Feng Shufen of Feng Internationals whose one area of business excellence has been the stream of finance would actually need a financial advisor for making decisions?" She said and Feng Da Zhong was rendered wordless from her one perspective. He opened his mouth to say something but before he could, Feng Yi Lan continued to say more.
"Furthermore, although I am too young in front of all of you, I am still someone following the company closely to know that there is no Zhang in the list of our investors. So, I could assume that whatever I heard now is nothing but a tale written just to read out to children." Feng Yi Lan added before giving a meaningful glance to Zhang Xiaotong, who has been staring at her all this while, giving an expression of aggrieved.
Though her expression of aggrieve-ness looked genuine, Feng Yi Lan could already understand from where that genuineness was coming. After all, the woman was planning to become her future Sister-in-law; in no way she would want to come out wrong in front of her.
But did she really think that her plans were enough to covet people on her side? Yi Lan's lips lifted in a smirk as internally she disapproved of her efforts. Dream on, girl! Soon you would realize how impossible your thoughts are to get my brother. And how did you even think that like these unscrupulous relatives, everyone would be the same? She was Feng Yi Lan and in no situation, she would leave the side of her brother and actual Sister-in-law.
"Yi Lan, you might not know. But truly my bond with your family has been for ages. I would later share with you that beautiful history of mine. But could you please not build any hostility towards me first. I don't like it when people get me wrong and I am sure once you know me you would definitely like me as your own."
After a long, Zhang Xiaotong couldn't contain but present her words like that. She doesn't want Brother Fenfen's family members to turn her enemy, especially after knowing how much the man adores his sisters. It would only be turned into a disadvantage for her and an advantage for Li Xue, which she doesn't want to offer.
Feng Da Zhong felt embarrassed on the side as well. But there was nothing he could do since, no matter what he thinks in his heart, this girl was yet a pure blood of Feng, whom he couldn't falsify or look down on. So, when he saw Zhang Xiaotong making up to Yi Lan, he could only support her.
"Yes, Yi Lan. You still don't know each other. Go and talk with her. This gathering could serve as an opportunity to build a good relationship, don't waste it. Who knows in the future, you might get to see each other more around?" He said with a hidden meaning in his words, but those words only made Yi Lan lose her calm.
Glaring at the man, she simply said, "Third Uncle, I don't know about which future you are talking, but let me tell you for me, Ms. Zhang is just an outsider for whom I can't let my brother and Sister-in-law's sweet relationship suffer." She said and her words dumbfounded everyone around. But without giving any regard to their expressions, she just continued, "Furthermore with what position Ms. Zhang is here? She isn't a Feng. What if later when my Sister-in-law appears here and finds her in the gathering … How do you think my innocent brother would be able to explain to her? Wouldn't that only cause chaos in their relationship?"
She said and on her continuous call of Sister-in-law, Zhang Xiaotong only felt her nerves aching.
Feng Da Zhong saw the girl's demeanor changing and instantly thought to interrupt, "What rubbish are you talking about, Yi Lan? Who is your Sister-in-law? Feng Shufen has never brought any woman to meet us. So don't build any stories on your own." He said and other people's agreement to his words reached her ears in whispers.
To which Feng Yi Lan pressed a smile over her expression before scanning everyone around to say, "He might have not brought in the past but what if he has plans of bringing her here today? Would you be willing to take the risk, Third Uncle?" She said and at her forecast like that, Feng Da Zhong felt the beads of sweat rising on his forehead.
"I … I …" Before he could say anything, someone from outside came to inform.
"Young Master is here and making his way inside with his family."
