The Lei Family really went too far in their bullying, and Ye Feng was undoubtedly furious.
"Hold on, little brother, don’t be reckless with your actions!"
Fu Shen quickly stopped him and sighed deeply, "If there had been a way, if I had the capability, I would have personally gone to the Lei Family to avenge our foster father three years ago, but as you know, the Lei Family’s power is imnse, and they even have experts from the Jiang Family supporting them behind the scenes.
Attacking them like that, not only would I fail to get revenge, but I would also lose my life for nothing."
Fu Zi also tried to persuade him, "Big brother, let’s not act on impulse. These years, the second brother and I haven’t been afraid to die, it’s just that we’ve been struggling to find the right opportunity for revenge."
At this point, Hong Qingyan spoke up, "The rain is too heavy. Let’s first talk inside the carriage."
Everyone then got into the carriage, and to distract Ye Feng, Fu Zi changed the subject, "By the way, about your legs, what really happened? You just ntioned you were frad, but who frad you?"
Ye Feng waved his hand, "My legs are a minor issue. Those who frad were just so nobodies, not worth ntioning."
He didn’t want to talk too much about his own issues, because it involved too much, and there was no point in discussing it.
Fu Zi let out a long sigh, "Our family has really suffered. Foster Father was beaten to death, the eldest brother fell from a cliff and his life or death is unclear, and now your legs have also been crippled, brother. It’s truly one disaster after another."
Ye Feng suddenly thought of a question and asked, "Right, where’s Uncle Fu Zuoxing? With such a big incident in the Fu Family, as the head of the family, what is his stance?"
"Fu Zuoxing, don’t even ntion that coward. He’s always disliked us since we were young. After the incident with our foster father, he chose to hide away completely. Far from having any thoughts of avenging our foster father, he instead grovelled to the Lei Family and gave away most of our family’s assets, just to protect his last bit of land."
Ye Feng nodded slightly, without asking further. Though Fu Zuoxing’s actions were cowardly and weak, he couldn’t be bothered to deal with him.
Fu Shen suddenly said, "Coincidentally, tonight soone from the Jiang Family of the Southern River Region Jiangnan Province is coming over, and tomorrow happens to be the day when the three great ancient families of Jiangdu compete in martial arts to reassess the distribution of interests in Jiangdu’s properties."
Speaking of this, Fu Shen clenched his teeth in anger, "Thinking about it, that spineless old man Fu Zuoxing must have already gone to the airport to personally welco the people from the Jiang Family, hoping to gain their leniency and keep what’s left of his assets."
Ye Feng raised his eyebrows, "Tomorrow is the day for the martial competition. Who is coming from the Jiang Family this ti?"
"It’s said that the visitor is Jiang Tianlong, the eldest young master of the Jiang Family. He’s known as one of the Four Great Heavenly Dragons in the Southern River Region Jiangnan Province, a famous playboy. This guy cos and goes as he pleases in our Jiangdu, acting as if it’s his own backyard."
Fu Zi gritted her teeth in contempt; she detested the actions of this spoiled eldest son from the Jiang Family.
Ye Feng lifted his eyebrows, "If tomorrow is the day for the families to engage in martial competition, then tomorrow we’ll settle accounts with them!"
Towards Ye Feng’s words, both Fu Shen and Fu Zi didn’t take them seriously, nor did they hold any hope, considering it rely a spirited declaration from Ye Feng.
After all, his legs were already broken, and he could only sit in a wheelchair. Seeking revenge was easier said than done!
Throughout this entire conversation, Seventeen followed silently behind Ye Feng without uttering a word, nearly invisible. If one didn’t pay attention, it was all too easy to overlook him.
In the evening, the car returned to the old Fu Family mansion, and during dinner, Fu Zuoxing’s family braved the rain to drive back ho.
Fu Zuoxing was the elder brother of Fu Zuoming and the head of the Fu Family in this generation. When Fu Zuoming had started to adopt people like Ye Feng one after another, Fu Zuoxing, as the head of the family, had strongly opposed it and later even treated Ye Feng and the three others with disdain, going so far as to propose that they be driven out of the old mansion.
It was only after the eldest brother, Fu Tian, had entered the Southern Territory to beco the lord of a town that Fu Zuoxing’s attitude began to change. However, due to Fu Tian’s troubles and offending the Jiang Family, Fu Zuoxing’s attitude underwent a complete reversal yet again.
"Eat, eat, eat, you two gluttons, spending all day just knowing how to eat. Even though you were adopted and not true descendants of our Fu Family, hasn’t my second brother raised you all this while? Don’t you even think about repaying a bit of the Fu Family’s kindness?"
As soon as Fu Zuoxing entered the hall, he imdiately started berating them coldly, his expression indicating that he probably acted like this on a regular basis.
Three people entered with him, one of whom was a plump and dignified woman, Fu Zuoxing’s wife. The other two young n and won were Fu Zuoxing’s son and daughter.
Fu Zuoxing’s wife also followed up with a cold, mocking tone, "In this windy and rainy weather, we are all still toiling for the Fu Family, yet you have it good, staying at ho all day just eating and drinking. Who is the real master of the house and who is the adopted son or daughter?"
Usually, in the face of Fu Zuoming’s mockery, Fu Shen and Fu Zi would not respond. It wasn’t that they didn’t dare to, nor that they were attached to the so-called Fu Family fortune; they hadn’t left yet because they hadn’t avenged their foster father.
Ye Feng put down his chopsticks and said coldly, "Uncle and Aunt, you’ve gone out to flatter the Jiang Family at the airport in such heavy rain. It seems you really are working hard and honorably for the family."
Fu Zuoxing frowned and asked sharply, "Who are you to talk about our Fu Family’s affairs?"
He began to speak, but suddenly recognized who it was and his face turned even darker as he gritted his teeth and shouted, "It turns out to be Ye Feng, the third foster son of Fu Zuoming."
Ye Feng laughed lightly and said, "I hope you’re doing well, Uncle. Going through wind and rain to et the people of the Jiang Family, you’re so enthusiastic and attentive. How co they didn’t invite you to stay for a al? If you haven’t eaten yet, we have plenty of leftovers here, and we wouldn’t mind asking you to sit down and join us."
Fu Zuoxing’s wife was extrely angry and was about to scold him, but suddenly, as if she noticed sothing, she laughed coldly, "What’s the matter, Ye San? It seems you are sitting in a wheelchair. Could it be that your legs are broken, and you’ve beco a cripple?"
Ye Feng actually nodded, "Although I am sitting in a wheelchair, it’s still better than so people who are kneeling."
"How dare you!"
Fu Zuoxing burst into rage, "What are you, an adopted wild seed? Since when is it your turn to point fingers?"
At that mont, Fu Zuoxing’s son, Fu Wenhua, said coldly, "Dad, why bother talking so much to this adopted wild seed? Getting angry at such a person would only diminish our own dignity. If you ask , a dog-like waste like him should be imdiately kicked out!"
"Exactly, letting such a waste and wild dog into our ho is simply an insult to our ancient Fu Family!" Fu Zuoxing’s daughter, Fu Qing, also sneered.
With a slap!
Fu Shen imdiately slapped his chopsticks down, rose swiftly, and snorted, "Who gave you the right to kick my third brother out? It’s true that we were adopted by our foster father, but don’t forget, three years ago my foster father already transferred the ownership of one of these old mansions to my na."
"I am the master of this house, so the one who should get out is you!"
