NOVEL NEXT Chapter 147: The Fox Spirit, Old Fang
Now, it had become even more obvious.
After all, if the Fang Family had come to Xi County for the issue of the Wang family's property, they should have done so long ago.
Besides, Tan Long had also come.
Fang Feifei naturally wouldn't have come here for no reason. Since she was here, the purpose was already clear—it was for Wang Ye.
But Su Wanqing had no right to demand that Wang Ye not interact with Fang Feifei.
After all, when Su Wanqing and Wang Ye got married, there wasn't much affection between them to begin with. They both knew very well what it was for.
Just then,
As Fang Feifei, who had been arguing with Tan Long, saw Wang Ye, she ran straight toward him. Tan Long followed behind Wang Ye and said:
"I already told him you had important matters inside and didn't let him in, but he insisted on getting into the room."
Fang Feifei turned her head and glared fiercely at Tan Long, then said to him, "I'm here to find Wang Ye for something important. If you stop me and something goes wrong, can you bear the responsibility?"
"Without Master Wang's orders, nothing else matters."
"What you say doesn't count for anything..."
Fang Feifei directly rebutted Tan Long.
Seeing that Tan Long and Fang Feifei were about to start arguing, Wang Ye spoke up with a trace of helplessness:
"Enough, stop arguing both of you."
Tan Long immediately shut up and said no more.
Wang Ye looked at Fang Feifei and asked her, "What happened?"
Fang Feifei glanced at Su Wanqing next to Wang Ye, pursed her lips, her facial expression somewhat dissatisfied, but still she said:
"The Yuncheng Four Great Families learned about Tan Xu giving up his seat to you last night. Recently, the Four Great Families plan to hold a joint meeting, intending to investigate the background, and then decide whether to deal with you or not."
"However, the Master of the Yang Family harbors great hatred towards you. Even after finding out that you have powerful support, he still wants to deal with you. So, at key points on your return to Yun City, he plans to ambush you, to finish you off."
Fang Feifei spoke concisely, getting her intended meaning across quickly, and finally said, "My grandfather learned about this through an informant he placed within the Yang Family, and he asked me to tell you."
"Hmm," Wang Ye nodded and looked at Fang Feifei, then asked, "Did your grandfather tell you anything else?"
Fang Feifei was taken aback and shook her head: "He didn't say anything else."
"Then, please put this old man behind me in your car," Wang Ye said.
Fang Feifei looked at Old Li standing behind Wang Ye. By now, Old Li was quite elderly, and his person emitted an unavoidable scent of decay. His clothing, while decent among common elderly people, was still somewhat dirty.
However, Fang Feifei did not show any aversion. Instead, she nodded, came over to help Wang Ye with Old Li, and said to Wang Ye, "Let me help you with that."
Su Wanqing had been observing from the sidelines. She saw that when Fang Feifei spoke and did these things, it wasn't an act; it came from the heart.
To be honest, when Su Wanqing first saw Old Li and smelled his scent, she felt a bit of aversion.
"Sigh."
Su Wanqing let out a sigh. Was this the difference between Fang Feifei and herself?
If it weren't for the need for Wang Ye to marry her to recover his lost memories, perhaps Fang Feifei would be the one by Wang Ye's side now.
It really had nothing to do with her.
Thinking this, Su Wanqing bit her lip somewhat reluctantly and helped Wang Ye place Old Li into Fang Feifei's car.
As Old Li was helped by Wang Ye, Su Wanqing, and Fang Feifei into Fang Feifei's car, he looked at the three of them, slightly overwhelmed, and said, "You've troubled yourselves, this really wasn't necessary. I can walk and run; why would you three young people need to do this?"
Wang Ye shook his head and smiled at Old Li, "Grandpa Li, when I was little, you often carried me out to play. Now, I've only carried you a short distance, it's nothing really."
Listening to Wang Ye's words, Old Li looked at him with even more gratification and said, "Good, good, very good."
"If the boss knew, he'd probably be overjoyed to see his son has such a character."
After chatting with Old Li for a while, Wang Ye closed the car door, fixing his gaze on Fang Feifei.
He asked Fang Feifei, "Actually, your coming here wasn't really requested by your grandpa, was it?"
"How... how could that be?" Fang Feifei denied it outright.
But Wang Ye kept staring at Fang Feifei, looking into her eyes as if seeing through everything, "Patriarch Fang just gave you a choice, right?"
Wang Ye's statement made Fang Feifei's pupils dilate. Feeling greatly surprised, she couldn't help but ask Wang Ye, "How do you know?!!"
After Fang Feifei spoke, she realized she had slipped up. Not only did she not feel bad about it, but she also looked Wang Ye in the eye and said,
"Yes, my grandpa let me choose whether to tell you about this or not. I made the decision to tell you directly, coming all the way from Yun City."
"And all of this, all because of you, because I have you in my heart!"
Fang Feifei said this and then provocatively glanced at Su Wanqing.
"???"
Wang Ye was taken aback; he hadn't expected Fang Feifei to say something like that.
He turned his head to look at Su Wanqing.
Indeed.
Having heard what Fang Feifei said, Su Wanqing was clearly angry, turning her head aside, planning to ignore Wang Ye.
"I..."
Wang Ye felt utterly troubled. He had merely relayed Patriarch Fang's speculation, but it unexpectedly resulted in the two women getting caught up in a bout of jealousy and one-upmanship.
Sigh.
Being too outstanding as a man can sometimes be a fault.
Wang Ye lamented inwardly.
At the same time, he also silently remarked that Patriarch Fang truly was an old fox.
Having confirmed something from Fang Feifei, Wang Ye roughly guessed what Patriarch Fang had in mind.
By telling this to Fang Feifei, Patriarch Fang knew she would surely tell him out of her feelings for him.
It preserved a favor on his part.
On the other hand, since Fang Feifei took it upon herself to tell him, and it wasn't his suggestion, if the news reached the Yang Family and the Four Great Families of Yun City, it would still be justifiable.
