Most people would omit the “vice” when they addressed him.
Feng Wu smiled at him. “Vice-captain. How impressive. I’m so scared.”
She thought, “Your captain is holding bags of rice in my yard. Would you like to meet him?”
If Dugu Menghai could read her mind, he would have fled the scene.
But he couldn’t, so he remained very arrogant.
“Take her down!” Although Dugu Menghai was amazed by how pretty Feng Wu was, he didn’t feel anything for her because to him, power was the most important thing.
“Wait,” Feng Yanfeng interjected.
He then turned to stare at Feng Wu. “Xiao Wu, if you still care about your family, sign this.”
Feng Wu glanced at the paper. “What’s that?”
Feng Yanfeng said, “It’s an agreement saying that you’ll leave the clan for good.”
Feng Wu said, “What agreement?”
Feng Yanfeng gestured at Dugu Menghai, asking him to wait a moment. He then walked up to Feng Wu and said, “Xiao Wu, your crime is unforgivable. You’re trying to usurp the throne! The Feng clan has lived peacefully for generations, and I can’t let you bring everyone down with you. If you still have
any conscience at all, you should give everyone a chance.”
Feng Wu looked from the paper to Feng Yanfeng and smiled. “So, you want me to voluntarily sign this agreement. If anything goes wrong in the future, you won’t need to take any responsibility. Is that right?”
Feng Yanfeng said, “Xiao Wu, stop stalling and sign it!”
Feng Wu asked, “Removing a member from the clan is a major decision. Have you asked the elders yet?”
Feng Yanfeng hadn’t because everything had happened too suddenly and he didn’t have the time.
He decided that Feng Wu would never get to talk to the three elders, and she would have to take his word for it.
He feigned a sympathetic tone. “Xiao Wu, there’s no hope left for you. All the elders agree with me, and Elder Grain even said…”
Feng Wu fought back her laughter and said with a straight face, “What did Elder Grain say?”
Feng Yanfeng said, “Elder Grain called you a disloyal and immoral member of the clan. You’ll only destroy us if you stay here. And there’s more.”
Feng Wu glanced in the direction of the yard and smiled a little. “What else?”
Feng Yanfeng sighed. “Elder Grain said that we should have kicked you out five years ago. He said that keeping you here was the biggest mistake he ever made.”
Feng Wu said, “Is that so? Did Elder Grain really say that? You’re not making it up, are you?”
Feng Yanfeng glared at Feng Wu.. “Elder Grain said so himself! Feng Wu, stop stalling and sign it! From now on, you’ll have nothing to do with the Feng clan!”
