185: 185: Request from the Tang Family of Chuan City
“Just speak frankly,” Tang Feng had noticed that Tang Wentian had sothing to say but hesitated, yet he surmised it must be no small matter, or he wouldn’t have broached the subject.
“It’s trouble in Chuan City.
In fact, we are a branch of the Tang Family in Sichuan.
Although we’ve been independent for over a hundred years, the ancestral hall is still there,” Tang Wentian’s words were feeble.
In the past, he had wanted to return to Chuanchong to acknowledge his roots, but they didn’t care to recognize him.
The Tang Family branch in Nandu was indeed too weak, and the main branch looked down upon them.
However, for so reason, they had heard sothing about Tang Feng and had taken the initiative to seek out Tang Wentian, promising that the Tang Family branch could reclaim their place in the main clan and inherit the authentic Tang Family martial arts.
The offer was painted beautifully; Tang Wentian couldn’t help being tempted.
The old ancestor of the Nandu Tang Family always wished to return to the Tang Family, but with inadequate talent, insufficient family heritage, and no remarkable achievents, how could he expect the main clan to acknowledge them?
Now, however, things were different.
Tang Feng was formidable, which Tang Wentian and Tang Jianjun had witnessed firsthand.
He could even handle the fabled cultivators, which in itself was enough for the Tang Family to be accepted back.
But everything depended on Tang Feng’s attitude.
If he wasn’t keen, there was nothing anyone could do.
“I’m not interested,” Tang Feng refused outright.
He wasn’t bored to that extent.
“This matter is very important, and if mishandled, it could lead to the clan’s extinction,” Tang Wentian said urgently.
“Did you see it with your own eyes, or is that just what they told you?”
“This—” Tang Wentian was startled, for he had not witnessed it personally and thus couldn’t answer.
“Xiao Feng, this is true.
I was there at the ti.
If it’s convenient for you, I hope you can help.
After all, that place is our ancestral land, and this is an unchangeable fact,” Tang Wushuang spoke up.
“Yeah, you’re so powerful, just go have a look,” Tang Mi said.
Tang Feng fell silent.
Both won had spoken, and he couldn’t just ignore the matter, especially since he had no aversion to either of them.
“Sister Yin, what do you think?” Tang Feng turned to Shen Yin and asked.
Instantly, everyone’s gaze fell on Shen Yin, the pleading in their eyes increasing her pressure.
“Why not go?
Think of it as a trip.
If you find it dull, you can bring
along,” Shen Yin said.
“You’re too soft-hearted.
Fine, I’ll go this once, but don’t take this as a precedent,” Tang Feng sighed.
“Thank you, Xiao Feng.
On behalf of the Tang Family, I thank you,” Tang Wentian was moved, knowing that as long as Tang Feng agreed to go, the problem could surely be resolved.
“Xiao Feng, I’ll accompany you when the ti cos,” Tang Wushuang smiled.
“When do we leave?” Having a beautiful young aunt along wouldn’t be too bad.
“How about the fifth day?” Tang Wushuang suggested.
“Fine, Auntie, you arrange it,” Tang Feng agreed, but Tang Wentian and the others still showed no signs of leaving.
“Is there sothing else?”
“Of course, there is.
Didn’t brother tell you about that matter?” Tang Wushuang looked puzzledly at Tang Jianjun.
“What matter?” Tang Feng was sowhat mystified, looking at his stepfather.
“Actually, you have an arranged marriage.
It was set up by the old master a long ti ago.
Given how you were before, we didn’t expect the other party to follow through.
But now that you’re fine, and the girl has returned from abroad, do you want to et her?” Tang Jianjun said, sowhat awkwardly, with Shen Yin standing right there.
“No need, just call it off,” Tang Feng was not at all interested.
Shen Yin breathed a sigh of relief beside him, her heart growing fonder of Tang Feng.
This was to make her feel embarrassed by rejecting her outright, how could she not be moved.
“You probably can’t avoid eting her, since she’s already arrived in Nandu, and we don’t have a choice,” Tang Jianjun said with a wry smile.
“What a joke, even if I don’t see her, what can she do about it?” Tang Feng said, laughing despite his annoyance.
“If you don’t see her, she will still co looking for you.
She’s traveled from the Capital City, after all, and it wouldn’t be wrong to et her face to face,” Tang Wushuang said with a smile, then handed over a photo.
“Uh!
Where is she?” Tang Feng took one look and was intrigued.
A great beauty, and very vibrant, too—if she’s still all-natural, he wouldn’t mind.
“She’s at Tang’s Hotel, this is her phone number.” Tang Wushuang was particularly eager, prompting Tang Feng to give her a strange look.
“Sister, you’re so enthusiastic.
Is there sothing fishy going on?”
“I simply like that girl, she’s intelligent, cos from an erudite family background, and is herself quite learned.
Her personal qualities, and her family background, are both quite compatible with yours.
I think you shouldn’t miss out, after all, she is your fiancée in every official respect,” Tang Wushuang said.
“Alright, stop it, Sister.
What era are we even in?
I agreed to et her to give her freedom.
Maybe that’s why she’s here.
I’ve already got a loved one, and she’s wonderful.
I’m very happy now,” Tang Feng said.
“You’re still young, what do you know about love?” Tang Wushuang rolled her eyes.
“Do you even know what love is, Sister?
Talk to
about it when you’ve tried it soday.
I’m an adult now, so you can’t treat
like a child.
Isn’t that right, Sister Mi?” Tang Feng dragged Tang Mi into the conversation.
“I didn’t realize you were so mature, but honestly, that woman is absolutely perfect.
Even I am very jealous,” Tang Mi admitted to herself that she wasn’t inferior to any woman, but facing that woman could make one feel unworthy.
Whether it was her feminine charm or her scholarly knowledge, both were immaculate.
The Tang Family wouldn’t dare to aspire so high because she was just too perfect.
But what was true at one ti may not hold at another.
Now that Tang Feng is also quite outstanding, he completely has the ability to handle such a person.
As elders, Tang Wentian and the others naturally hoped it would turn out well; it would be an honor for the Tang Family.
“Sister Mi, I find myself more interested in you,” Tang Feng said such words in front of Tang Wentian and the others, shocking them.
“Nonsense, I’m your cousin,” Tang Mi retorted angrily.
“Is that so?
We’re not related by blood, right?” Tang Feng said with a smile.
Of course, he was not seriously considering the idea; he was just teasing her.
But Tang Mi didn’t take it that way.
She had already let her thoughts wander the last ti she bumped into Tang Feng at the coffee shop, and now, saying this in front of the elders, even though she was protesting, her face was blooming red.
“Xiao Feng, don’t make such jokes.
Don’t ss up the family hierarchy,” Tang Jianjun said anxiously.
“Just a joke, why are you all so worked up?
Even if we did get together, what’s the harm?
She’ll find her original family sooner or later anyway,” Tang Feng said.
“Enough, such jokes are not allowed; they can make us the laughing stock.
We’ve told you about the girl.
Whether to et her or not is up to you; we’re going to leave now,” Tang Wentian finally stood up to leave.
Tang Feng didn’t say anything but went over to Tang Wushuang, took her hand, and placed a bottle of Elixir into her palm.
“What is this?” Seeing Tang Feng’s smile, Tang Wushuang felt sowhat perplexed.
It was in that instant that she felt Tang Feng’s aura change completely—it was the distinct masculine energy of a man.
As a woman nearly in her thirties, such a strong masculine presence had a powerful effect on her, and she nearly dropped the bottle in a mont of flustered confusion.
After she ca to her senses, she almost wanted to slap herself—she had actually let herself fantasize about sothing that could never happen.
She felt her heart pounding wildly, and for a mont, she wished she wasn’t part of the Tang Family, just an ordinary woman, which would allow her to indulge freely and love bravely.
“Sister, your face is red—what are you thinking about?” Tang Feng asked, speechless at her sensitivity.
