When every guest had been escorted out, Fei Yi Lang no longer hid his vicious expression. He gestured to the guards and turned to the three traitors who had condemned his son. "Tie these three traitors up and lock them in the basent! How dare you harm my son’s reputation!"
His nacing gaze then fell on Bei Sangyun. "And you! I will deal with you personally!"
"Stop it, Yi Lang," Head Master Fei said, rubbing his aching temple. "Your foolishness is what caused this entire situation to worsen. And as for your foolish son—" His face darkened, "he must take responsibility for the ss he made."
"Father! My son and I are not the enemy!"
Head Master Fei ignored him and looked ahead, where the four butlers who had protected Bei Sangyun were being forced to kneel by the security guards.
Just as the guards were about to touch Bei Sangyun’s sleeve, Fei Hua Jiang, who had stepped outside to escort the guests, ca running back. "Grandfather, Father, this is urgent!"
His flustered appearance caught everyone’s attention.
Fei Hua Jiang held up his phone. "Grandfather, J-Jas... I an, Sir William Jas is on the phone and wishes to speak to you."
William Jas?!
As in William Jas, the heir of the Jas family?!
The remaining Fei family mbers exchanged glances, shock and delight in their eyes.
For a mont, they montarily forgot the scene before them. Even if one of their own was dying right in front of them, it couldn’t overshadow the excitent of being contacted first by one of the world’s most renowned families!
This took priority above all else!
Fei Yi Lang, who was full of rage a mont ago, suddenly burst into joy. "...It must be my son! My son has been working so hard abroad to get into the ranks of the Jas family. He finally did it! Father, this is enough reason that we need to save Fei Min’s reputation!"
Head Master Fei gave a short, warning glance in Fei Yi Lang’s direction to keep his mouth shut. There was still an outsider in the area, yet everyone was exposing this side of themselves.
He accepted the phone and stepped out.
As soon as he stepped out, the remaining Fei family mbers couldn’t contain themselves and murmured with excitent.
"Why do you think the Jas family called us first?"
"Did Fei Min successfully befriend the Jas family? I heard he received an invitation, but I never thought he would rope in the esteed heir himself!"
"Right. I was shocked too. If Fei Min has truly built a bridge between us and the Jas, then the Head Master wouldn’t be able to give out the punishnt. He might be rewarded instead."
"Who knows? Maybe the Jas family will step in since Fei Min is involved, right? Tonight’s disgrace might be easily covered up, and no one will dare speak of it!"
Fei nqi heard the murmurs around her. Her face went pale.
Fei Min and the Jas family? That couldn’t be! How did that ill-tempered bastard befriend the Jas family?!
But if it was really true, then... Fei Min would be able to get out of this ss unscathed. Then all her effort would be for nothing. She would beco a traitor who helped an outsider accuse Fei Min instead!
The other two beside her, Fei Yuxuang and Fei Ling, were also silent, lost in their own thoughts. Their gloomy expression reflected that they were also thinking the sa as Fei nqi.
On the side, Bei Sangyun was forced to be cuffed by the security personnel. Because of the sudden call from the Jas family, everyone’s attention had shifted away from her. They seed to have forgotten about her.
Bei Sangyun calmly fiddled with the cuffs, deliberating her next move. The Fei family clearly didn’t want her to leave, and her spies had been arrested. While she was confident they wouldn’t harm her as a mber of the Lin family, staying here for the night was not an option. Fei Chuan was waiting for her outside, and she couldn’t let him worry or act recklessly to rescue her.
Should she signal the remaining spies to contact reinforcents? But doing so would only create a bigger ss. If she were to forcefully escape in front of so many people, the Fei family would have a perfect excuse to portray the incident as a conflict between two families.
This would turn the situation from exposing the ’bullying’ within the Fei family into a political family feud. Then Fei Min could easily hide from the spotlight, and the issue of ’bullying’ would be forgotten. She couldn’t allow that to happen.
Maybe she should send soone to inform Fei Chuan not to worry and escape discreetly tomorrow morning--
"Ha. What a pity. You worked so hard to ruin my son’s reputation, but it will all be for nothing." Fei Yi Lang stood beside Bei Sangyun, his earlier anger replaced by a good mood.
Even though Fei Min had been embarrassed in front of everyone, with the powerful Jas family’s support, the truth could easily be twisted into a lie, and that lie could beco the new truth.
"Tomorrow, no one will rember what happened tonight. Instead, everyone will be talking about how the Fei family has connections with the Jas family—all thanks to my son. As for you, you’ll be seen as the one who drove a wedge between the two families. Even the Lin family backing you won’t be able to save you."
He pointed at the three traitors in the distance. "I don’t know how you coerced them to your side, but they’ll share in your humiliation. You and that bastard Fei Chuan won’t have a future left in the Capital. You brought this upon yourself."
Fei Yi Lang was truly glad that things had turned out this way. The Jas family’s appearance would clear his son’s na. As for this crazy young lady, she would be a good tool to demand a huge amount of compensation from the Lin family. With the scandal she had caused, the Lin family wouldn’t be able to raise their heads in front of the Fei family in the future.
And it was all thanks to his son!
Bei Sangyun stared at Fei Yi Lang, pondering if this person was senile. He was just furious a mont ago, and now he was full of smiles. She had no interest in exchanging words with this foolish person.
It baffled her that people like him held positions of power, relying solely on authority and others for support.
The Jas family, huh?
The Jas family was a force to be reckoned with. Even in the past, they remained in power and continued to rise. No wonder these people were happy after learning the Jas family contacted them first. But so what?
As far as she knew, the Jas family was too picky in choosing their associates. There was no way Fei Min would be able to et their standards. She rembered the adult Fei Chuan had a good relationship with them. And...
She recalled the phone call she had with that ’man’.
She had so guesses as to why that person called right now. But her conjecture would be confird once Head Master Fei returned.
