Chapter 623: Chapter 379, Destined to Be the Villain!_3
Tang Fei had always acted too mature for his age and possessed a ruthlessness that didn’t seem to match soone of his years.
It was rare to see him show a look of astonishnt, which made Sheng Xinhua feel that his true nature hadn’t been lost, that he still held fundantal moral concepts.
After all, anyone who heard such things would feel a sense of absurdity that was hard to accept.
Who would want to be friends with soone malicious?
“Doesn’t he have a daughter?”
“Phoenix? What about it? Want to prop up his little girlfriend so he can brazenly live off her?”
“If it were really possible…” Tang Fei said calmly, “I wouldn’t refuse.”
“I’d also like to live off soone, too bad, Phoenix has no chance.” Sheng Xinhua said regretfully, “From what I know of Zhong Daolong, he never considered Phoenix, preferring to leave that position to his two inept sons…”
“Moreover, Zhong Daolong isn’t without other brothers. There are quite a few among the Royal Family mbers who could take over… But because Zhong Daolong nad the Crown Prince early on, many have given up on that idea…”
“If Zhong Tianque died, and Zhong Daolong didn’t plan to hand over the power to Zhong Tianyi… others would naturally jump out to compete…”
“So, to prevent this kind of thing from happening, if Zhong Tianyi really does kill Zhong Tianque… the first thing Zhong Daolong would do is try every ans to wash away any suspicions from Zhong Tianyi.”
“It doesn’t matter if he did it or not, the investigation would definitely clear him, all so he could take his place legitimately… Sounds unreasonable, right?”
Tang Fei nodded, “It’s still you city folks who know how to play… Back in Old Land, villains just chop off your head. In New Star, they not only chop off your head but also say it was your own request…”
“Don’t generalize, not everyone in New Star is bad.”
Tang Fei, looking puzzled, asked Sheng Xinhua, “You directly call the Royal Family by their nas… You don’t like them?”
“What else should I call them? Do they have anything about them that earns my respect?”
“…”
“No matter how glossy and shiny their appearances are… The closer you get, the more you see, the more you realize it’s all just that.” Sheng Xinhua sighed softly, “It’s just a pity for Phoenix….”
“A pity for what?”
“Such a good woman, born into such a family.”
“But she is the Empire Princess, below one person, above tens of thousands… Who knows how many people envy her…”
“I don’t envy her.” Sheng Xinhua said, “If given a choice… I think, Phoenix would also prefer a simple and comfortable life, not stuck in the deep palace suffering day and night…”
This ti, Tang Fei did not argue.
Nor could he argue.
He knew, Phoenix must feel very sad now.
The competition between the two brothers was intensifying, and she, as the younger sister, was caught in the middle, in a tough position.
Whom could she support? What could she do?
To tell them to stop fighting and be harmonious as a family… Wouldn’t that be a joke?
Who would listen?
Yet, Tang Fei knew, the real blow for Phoenix hadn’t co yet.
When all truths co to light, where would she go from there?
Seeing Tang Fei silent, Sheng Xinhua also sighed deeply in her heart.
She understood Phoenix’s predicant just as well. But, as an outsider, she couldn’t help much.
She could only take care of her injured boyfriend…
“So you’re sure it was the Second Prince who did it?” Tang Fei asked.
“No.” Sheng Xinhua shook her head, “I’m not concerned about that… I just hope it wasn’t the Second Prince…”
“Because that way… Phoenix’s mood might be a bit better…”
“Yes.” Tang Fei nodded, “Hope it wasn’t the Second Prince…”
At that mont, the door of the ward was pushed open.
i Yuyin and Little Fatty walked in, Little Fatty’s hands filled with big and small bags.
“Brother, I ca to see you,” Little Fatty exclaid excitedly upon seeing Tang Fei.
“What are you holding in your hand?” Tang Fei asked.
“Soup. And so food,” i Yuyin said with a smile, continuing, “The food in the canteen isn’t nutritious, so I made so soup at ho and brought it over… I just happened to run into Little Fatty at the entrance, so I asked him to help carry it up.”
The Imperial Mariti Hospital is a hospital for the nobility, and those who stay in the VIP wards are indeed the crè de la crè.
The food here is prepared by nutrition experts and Empire’s renowned chefs, not only full of flavor and aroma but also extrely nutritious.
However, in i Yuyin’s eyes, it was “hard to swallow.”
“Thank you, Auntie,” Tang Fei said gratefully, but his gaze drifted towards Sheng Xinhua sitting beside him.
Mr. Sheng, please clarify things with Auntie soon, confess to lessen the bla, resist and face strictness.
If this continues, Auntie really will start thinking of herself as your prospective mother-in-law.
Oh, she already thinks that…
Sheng Xinhua ignored Tang Fei’s expectant look and complained to i Yuyin, “Why do you always co here? Don’t disturb our life as a couple.”
“Do I disturb your life as a couple? If only you could make Xiao Tang so soup or fry so dishes, I wouldn’t co over. It’s all because you can’t cook anything…”
“There’s food in the canteen, isn’t there? Whatever you want to eat, just call and they’ll deliver it.”
“Is the canteen’s food nutritious?”
“Look at his face… all flushed, and a double chin is about to appear, where does he look like a sick person?”
“That’s all because of the soup I brought… Relying on you, Xiao Tang would have starved to death…”
——
The mother and daughter once again entered a phase of verbal sparring; Tang Fei and Little Fatty exchanged glances, with Little Fatty awkwardly saying, “Brother…”
“It’s okay,” Tang Fei said calmly, “Give the soup.”
“Oh,” Little Fatty nodded.
He thought to himself, Big Brother is indeed Big Brother, always so composed in the face of major matters.
To be able to drink soup in such an environnt.
——
Leisure Residence.
Zhong Tianyi squatted on the ground, watching a group of ants collaboratively transport a fiery red cherry towards their hole.
He had intentionally dropped that cherry on the ground, feeling like he was one of those ants.
One among that group of ants.
Zhao Huannong ca over and reported softly, “Your Highness, the Eldest Prince has returned.”
“Uh, is he alright?” Zhong Tianyi asked without lifting his head, as if the ants were more important than his brother’s safety.
Zhao Huannong frowned slightly, knowing that Zhong Tianyi wasn’t truly concerned about the Eldest Prince.
Still, he honestly replied, “He’s back, and he’s not hurt.”
“What a pity,” Zhong Tianyi picked up the cherry, along with countless ants on it, and threw it into the swimming pool in front of him. “It would have been better if he hadn’t co back.”
“…” Zhao Huannong didn’t dare answer that.
“Do they all think I did it?” Zhong Tianyi asked.
Zhao Huannong pondered for a mont, then nodded, “Yes.”
“Hehe…” Zhong Tianyi watched the ants struggling desperately in the pool and said, “It seems I’m destined to be the villain.”
“Your Highness…”
“Tell them, I agree,” Zhong Tianyi’s eyes darkened as he gritted his teeth, “I agree to all their conditions.”
(ps: Wishing all the kids a happy Children’s Day!)
