Chapter 211: You’ve Got Guts
Another three or four people collapsed, but the person whom Feng Tianlan was waiting for still didn’t say anything. Feng Tianlan had run out of patience, so she raised an eyebrow and instructed coldly, “Uncle, get hold of that wonderful butler to serve as a warning.”
The moment she said that, one of them turned and tried to make a run for it.
Feng Qingling quickly ran after him. When Tu Xiang saw what was happening, his face darkened, and he chased after him as well. Feng Tianlan swiftly moved to block him from going anywhere. “We’re not done with the show yet. Where does Father think he’s going?”
“Feng Tianlan, enough is enough. These are all Feng Manor’s servants. You’ve killed so many, even though you’ve only just become the clan head. Are you trying to rule over them by instilling fear?” Tu Xiang anxiously shouted at Feng Tianlan.
Feng Tianlan laughed gently. “When it comes to blood on my hands, I don’t have as much as Father does.”
“What do you want, then? We are a family, and I am your father. You’re going against the morals of heaven, and the gods will punish you!”
“Father, aren’t you tired of repeating the same thing?” Feng Tianlan asked Tu Xiang sarcastically. She’d never treated him as her father, so she wasn’t going against any morals.
“Feng Tianlan, I am now commanding you as your father: stop this right now. Otherwise, don’t blame me for turning nasty.” Tu Xiang clenched his fists so hard that his veins on the verge of popping out. He was trying very hard to keep in his anger.
Feng Tianlan threw a glance at his fists and smirked, “I would like to see how nasty can Father get.”
“You…” Tu Xiang saw that Feng Qingling had caught the man he was chasing, and he was about to swing his fists at Feng Tianlan to kill her and shut her up forever.
Feng Tianlan took a step forward and looked coldly into his eyes. “Father, we’re going to Spiritual Foods Restaurant in a while, remember?”
When he heard this, Tu Xiang forced himself to stop. There was a huge banquet later, and if anything happened to Feng Tianlan now, all the strong fighters would see him as an enemy because the Spiritual Foods Restaurant was a place where many people might never otherwise get the chance to eat. Now, they had an opportunity, but if he dashed it, he would become public enemy number one. All those strong fighters would probably chase him down and kill him.
“What sort of place do you think Spiritual Foods Restaurant is? You’re just a useless good-for-nothing, so why would they entertain you and allow you to hold a banquet?” Tu Xiang raised his suspicions again. But, just in case, he took his fists back.
Feng Tianlan had a faint smile on her lips. “Well, Father, we’ll find out.”
Tu Xiang scoffed. He continued to clench his fists tightly, afraid that he might lose control and kill her on the spot.
Feng Tianlan slowly walked over to the butler. She saw his hands were firmly held behind his back. She looked at him with contempt. “Butler, do you remember what your last name is?”
“My name is Feng!”
“Oh, I thought your last name was Tu,” Feng Tianlan replied sarcastically.
The butler lowered his head. “Clan Head, if you want to kill me, just kill me. I have betrayed the Fengs, and I’m prepared to face such consequences.”
He had been the butler of this household for the past few decades and was the son of the previous butler. Since he had been born in the household, he had been graciously given the Feng name. He had been destined to be one among many generations of butlers, but he’d wanted to be more than just a butler. When Tu Xiang had looked him up, he’d decided to join hands with him and plot to take down the Fengs. But, after ten years, he was still only a butler.
As Feng servants, they all had to know the family’s first and most important rule: anyone who betrays the Fengs must die!
Now that things had reached this stage, death was inevitable, and he couldn’t run from it anymore.
“You have some guts.” Feng Tianlan raised an eyebrow.
“What do you want? Just kill me.” The butler raised his head and looked straight at Feng Tianlan. But when his gaze met her eyes, they were icy cold and filled with disgust and contempt. He felt a chill down his spine, and fear filled his heart.
