Chapter 378: An Unexpected Person

Chapter 378: An Unexpected Person

“The Feng Family has been keeping a low profile for many years. I don’t want the Feng Family to stand out again because they’ve managed to get close to Boss Xi and the Min Family in the capital. There’s nothing wrong with keeping a low profile. At least, it’s safe and stable.”

He did not say it directly, but the meaning was obvious.

He just didn’t want Xi Fengling to agree to Lu Ping’s request.

His words sounded a little harsh, which did not match his gentle personality.

However, Feng Qin, who was carrying the water and hearing his words, was not angry.

She knew that Cousin Xu knew the Feng Family’s style and didn’t want her sister to be trapped by the relationship and become a sacrifice for the Feng Family in exchange for benefits.

Xi Fengling looked at him deeply and smiled, “Second Young Master Feng, you don’t have to be so nervous. I just couldn’t reject Old Madam Feng’s good intentions and didn’t reject her outright. I’m actually not very interested in acknowledging godparents.”

“Besides, Old Madam Feng doesn’t know who I am. She only asked to acknowledge me because she likes me. She doesn’t have that many thoughts.”

It’s precisely because Grandmother “liked” you. Otherwise, Grandmother won’t have such thoughts.

Feng Xu thought.

“Anyway, I still hope that Boss Xi can consider it carefully. I just don’t want the Feng Family’s peaceful days to be disturbed.”

The Feng Family was indeed low-key, but the other members of the Feng Family might not really want to continue to keep this low profile.

Feng Xu knew this too.

“Since Second Young Master Feng has said so, even if I didn’t have any plans in the beginning, I’ll consider it carefully now.”

Feng Qin walked over at the right time and placed the three cups of water in front of the three of them. She pretended not to hear anything and asked excitedly, “What are you talking about?”

When she came over, Feng Xu’s remaining emotions that were affected by his grandparents trying to make Xi Fengling their god granddaughter, had all been restrained.

He took a sip of water. “Just chatting.”

“Don’t busy yourself anymore. Sit down. I’ll leave after saying a few words. You guys are tired from playing for the entire day, so I won’t disturb you anymore.”

Feng Qin sat down.

“Aren’t you busy with work recently?” Feng Xu asked.

“I’m not very busy. I didn’t rest for too long, so I mentioned it to the company. I won’t be taking any work for now. I’ll rest for a while first.”

“Is your job not suitable for you to be quiet for too long? Back then, in order to walk this path, you had many conflicts with your family. It wasn’t easy for you to get to where you are today, and your career is on the rise. If you really like it, you shouldn’t slack off. Otherwise, your previous efforts will be wasted.”

“Go to work after staying at home for a few days.”

Feng Qin didn’t expect him to say this. Or rather, she didn’t expect him to ask about her work and even say this to her in such an unquestionable tone.

In the Feng Family, only Cousin Xu really treated her as a family and treated her and her mother very well. She and her mother had received a lot of protection from him.

However, he only helped her in some aspects of life and material matters, as well as when the other members of the Feng Family went overboard with them. He wouldn’t interfere too much in her career.

He clearly didn’t want her to stay in the Feng Family anymore.

“I know. Cousin Xu, don’t worry. No matter what, I won’t neglect my work. I really haven’t had a good rest for a long time. Since Jinyu and Sister Fengling came to Cloud City and I have their company, I want to rest for a few more days.”

Looking at him, she was a little puzzled. “On the other hand, Cousin Xu, aren’t you very busy with work too? Why are you back at this time? Every year, this period seems to be your busiest time. Besides, you said that you’ve been back for a few days. I rarely see you stay at home for so long.”

“I have two lectures at Cloud City University.”

Cloud City University…

Feng Qin was a little surprised.

So that was the reason. She thought that he came back because he was worried about her after knowing that she had returned to the Feng Family.

She had not thought so initially. He had told her not to slack off and urged her to go to work after resting for a few days.

She could help but think too much.

Could it be just a coincidence?

Did he really return to the Feng Family for so many days because he wanted to do a lecture at Cloud City University and it was convenient for him to stay at home? And he urged her to go to work only because he cared about her and didn’t want her previous efforts to be wasted?

“No wonder. I knew it. Why would Cousin Xu come back at this time? You even stayed at home for so many days abnormally.”

“Cousin Xu, don’t worry. It wasn’t easy for me to get to where I am today. I won’t slack off. I’ll go to work after resting for a few days.”

“That’s good. I’m just reminding you. I’m afraid you won’t be able to stop playing and will become lazy.”

Looking at the two people at the side, Feng Xu smiled and said, “You still have friends at home as guests now. Speaking of which, it’s rude of Cousin to urge you to work in front of guests.”

“Since you want to rest for a while and your friends are around, go out and play more. It’s good that you leave early and come back late for the past few days. Your friends are our guests and have come to Yun Cheng to play. Be it going out or in the Feng Family, you must accompany them at all times.”

“Of course. Cousin Xu, don’t worry. I’m not a child. I’ll entertain the guests well.” Feng Qin smiled, but she was actually not calm.

They had not seen each other for a long time, but Cousin kept talking about all these abnormally the moment they met.

His first words could be understood as him caring about her job and not wanting her efforts to be wasted, but what about the following words?

The meaning of his words was obvious. It was best if she stayed with Sister Fengling and Jinyu all the time.

She wasn’t stupid. How could she not realize what he meant?

He just didn’t want her to stay in the Feng Family anymore. Seeing that she insisted, he changed his strategy and asked her to stay with Sister Fengling and Jinyu all the time.

He was afraid that she would be alone in the Feng Family’s mansion.

Why was this happening?

Feng Qin could only think of one thing—the Feng Family had already had designs on her and was already discussing whether to let her marry or… send her away directly.

Cousin Xu rushed back after receiving the news.

As for his lectures at Cloud City University, it should be just to cover for his abnormal return back home.

“That’s good. I’ll be staying in Cloud City for the time being. Call me if anything happens.”

Feng Qin nodded.

“I’ll make a move first. I won’t disturb your rest.” As he spoke, he got up to leave.

However, just as he stood up, someone walked in from the door.

“Xu’er is here too?”

The person was dressed in casual clothes. He wasn’t dressed formally like Feng Xu, but his temperament and Feng Xu’s gentleness were two extremes.

Feng Xu was warm and gentle, but the other person exuded a sharp aura.

He looked about the same age as Feng Xu and a little similar to Feng Xu.

Feng Xu’s expression tensed up when he saw the person, let alone Feng Qin.

Feng Qin’s expression changed.

Her pupils were even constricted.

Yan Jinyu and Xi Fengling also looked at the person.

However, the two of them didn’t react. They didn’t even have any doubts about the person’s identity.

However, only they knew that they did react when they saw this person. It was just that their reactions were hidden inwardly and not shown.

Seeing the person, they were not shocked or afraid. They were happy that their plan had succeeded and they could finally face him head-on.

Feng Xu was the first to react. He restrained his emotions and said, “Third Uncle?”

“It’s me.”

“Third Uncle, why are you here?”

“This is Qin’er’s courtyard. If I remember correctly, Third Uncle and Qin’er don’t have a deep relationship. Qin’er has been in the Feng Family for so many years and probably hasn’t seen Third Uncle more than 10 times. Third Uncle has never stepped into Qin’er’s courtyard either.”

“That seems to be the case.” He looked at Feng Qin coldly. “So, Qin’er doesn’t welcome Third Uncle?”

Feng Qin had an unknown fear for Feng Lun. She trembled uncontrollably when Feng Lun suddenly asked her this. “O-of course not! Third Uncle, please come in!”

Feng Lun walked over.

Feng Xu frowned slightly.

He was about to leave, but he was in no hurry to leave now.

“Third Uncle, please sit.”

Feng Qin was still a little afraid. Seeing Yan Jinyu and Xi Fengling sitting there calmly, for some reason, her heart gradually calmed down.

“There’s no need to sit. I’m just here to take a look.”

“Come over to take a look?” Feng Qin knew very well that he was definitely not here to see her.

He didn’t even look at her when she met him in the Feng Family.

Since he wasn’t here to see her, the answer was obvious.

She wasn’t the only one in the building now.

Please don’t have designs on her sister!

With this in mind, Feng Qin didn’t have much fear for Feng Lun anymore. She looked at him. “Third Uncle isn’t someone who will come to my courtyard for no reason. Third Uncle, why don’t you tell me directly?”

Feng Lun sized her up. “Qin’er has become quite bold after not seeing you for nearly three years. I remember that you didn’t dare to look up or speak when you saw me before.”

“I’ve embarrassed myself in front of Third Uncle. I was indeed very timid in the past. I was even afraid of you, my biological uncle. In the past three years, I’ve seen many people and things while working outside. I’ve become more sensible. Rather than saying that I’m bold, it’s better to say that I understand a lot of principles. I know that although Third Uncle doesn’t like to smile, he’s still an elder. He would only know how to love a junior like me.”

“Now that I think about it, I’m naturally not as reserved as before in front of Third Uncle.”

Yan Jinyu’s eyes twitched and she glanced at Feng Qin.

She was really good with words.

She clearly felt that Feng Qin was very afraid of Feng Lun just now, but for some reason, Feng Qin suddenly restrained that fear.

She even flattered Feng Lun first.

If Feng Lun agreed to Feng Qin’s words, he would not harm her openly for the time being.

That was why she felt that Feng Qin was good with words.

It was beneficial to her to curry favor if she did it right. It was not embarrassing.

Feng Lun glanced at Feng Qin and said emotionlessly, “You’ve improved a little.”

“Thank you for the compliment, Third Uncle.” Feng Qin exhaled slightly and lowered her eyes slightly.

Although she spoke clearly, her nerves would still tense up uncontrollably under his gaze.

“Third Uncle, why are you here?”

“I heard that you had guests. I thought that our two courtyards were not far apart and I saw Xu’er’s figure from afar, so I came over to take a look.”

“I didn’t expect Xu’er to really be here.”

His gaze swept past Yan Jinyu and paused on her face for a second before looking at Xi Fengling.

“I heard from your grandmother that you have a friend who looks like you. She even looks more like your mother than you. I thought she was exaggerating. Now that I see her, I know that she’s right.”

Feng Qin’s heart skipped a beat.

“We do look alike, which is why Sister Fengling and I hit it off at first sight.”

“Your friend’s surname is also Feng?”
