Su Haotian is indeed soone who makes people grit their teeth, yet there remains one undeniable fact: Su Haotian is Su Li’s biological father.
Whenever Feng Huaijin thought about Su Haotian and Su Li’s mother having Su Li, he found it less difficult to dislike Su Haotian.
Feng Huaijin raised his hand to touch Su Li’s black hair, his magnetic voice full of delight: "I will handle the engagent matters, don’t worry."
Su Li asked in bewildernt, "If you’re taking care of everything, what should I do?"
The skin under Feng Huaijin’s fingertips felt soft and smooth, his tone deep as water: "You... just focus on being my fiancée."
Su Li’s heart seed to leap like a fish, splashing layers of ripples. She looked into his eyes and nodded heavily: "Mm."
...
Feng Huaijin’s announcent of his engagent to Su Li caused an uproar within the Feng Family.
Especially the birth mothers of Old Six and Fifth, who were the most opposed.
"That Su Li is just a woman from the poor countryside of the Jiangzhou Prefecture. How can she step through the grand doors of the Feng Family? Our Feng Family is a hundred-year-old noble house; how can those from the entertainnt industry randomly latch on?" The birth mother of Old Six, Xue Xin, remarked with a smirk.
"I’ve heard that the Star Sky Entertainnt she founded is doing very well; the popular variety shows and dramas lately are her investnts. But that makes her a parvenu, without an ounce of family heritage. How can she marry into the Feng Family?" Fifth Miss’s mother, Wu Pei, retorted bluntly, her words sharp. She added quietly, "Being a mistress would be more fitting."
These won never hoped to step through the Feng Family’s doors with legitimacy, yet suddenly, a young woman not even twenty managed to beco the rightful Young Madam of the Feng Family?
Even as a junior herself, it was hard not to be envious.
Moreover... the other concern was: that woman nad Su Li is not easy to deal with. If she really entered the Feng Family and tead up with Feng Huaijin against them, vying for property, who could withstand that?
Sitting at the head seat, Madam Feng, dressed elegantly in a jade-green cheongsam, leisurely lifted the teacup on the table, taking a sip while watching their heated argunt.
"Madam, please say sothing!" Wu Pei urged anxiously.
Madam Feng set down the white porcelain teacup with blue patterns and responded with a teasing smile: "I just heard you saying that Su Li is from the poor countryside and not worthy of entering the Feng Family’s doors?"
Seeing them nod, Madam Feng chuckled softly: "Oh, is that so? If Jiangzhou Prefecture is considered the countryside, then I’m also a woman from there."
A light remark from Madam Feng rendered everyone speechless in an instant.
Madam Feng too was from Jiangzhou Prefecture!
Xue Xin’s face turned red with embarrassnt, explaining awkwardly: "Madam misunderstood; I was rely saying her family background isn’t good, and she wasn’t raised with the education of noble ladies. Even though Miss Ling Chen resides in Jiangzhou Prefecture, Miss Ling is a true lady of nobility. Therefore, how could that Su Li enter our Feng Family?"
Madam Feng replied with a faint smile: "Who do you include in ’our’ Feng Family?"
Wu Pei, Xue Xin, and several well-preserved middle-aged noblewon blushed imdiately, awkwardly standing aside.
They were rely mistresses, nowhere near touching the Feng Family’s doors, daring not to say ’our’ to Madam Feng.
Madam Feng checked the ti, got up, and walked out: "Sir should be back soon. I shall go and discuss the engagent dowries with him now."
Everyone watched Madam Feng’s graceful figure disappear from sight, instantly exchanging bewildered glances.
Such an attitude... implying consent?
