Free Web NovelChapter 1546: Chapter 1546: Better to Make Peace Than Enmity?
"Dad! What nonsense are you talking about!"
Upon hearing her father’s words, Lin Chuxue’s face turned beet red with embarrassment, and she retorted angrily.
"Oh my, you’re putting on a show for Dad again?"
Lin Hanqing looked at his daughter, amused, "The two of you were just together like that... ahem, let me say, we’re all one family, Nannan, don’t be shy. Besides, I wasn’t talking to you, but to Xiao Feng, right, Xiao Feng?"
Jiang Feng smiled wryly, it seemed like these two elders would not rest until they made things difficult for him.
Lin Chuxue was also embarrassed and angry; she knew that being bullied by Jiang Feng earlier would surely lead to such consequences.
At that moment, she glanced grudgingly at Jiang Feng!
However, listening to her father’s insistence, coupled with the words Lin Lu said to her at noon, inexplicably stirred a peculiar anticipation in her heart.
Shamefully thinking inwardly, if Jiang Feng really went wild tonight, then maybe... maybe she’d go along with him, without any additional demands...
Soon, the Crocodile Soup and Bullwhip Soup, specially ordered by Lin Hanqing for Jiang Feng, were brought in by the waiter. The Bullwhip Soup was easy to understand, the Crocodile was naturally that kind of very fertile lizard, and when consumed, its soup transforms a person into a hardworking little bee, tirelessly toiling.
Facing the eager gazes of Lin Hanqing and Li Yaqin, Jiang Feng had no choice but to wryly drink both bowls of soup.
After consuming these two bowls, not to mention filling his stomach, his body quickly became inexplicably hot, feeling as if he was overflowing with energy.
"Oh, brother-in-law, you..."
At this moment, Lin Lu also returned. Seeing Jiang Feng gulping down soup like that, she was more startled, and also knew her cousin was going to be "in trouble" tonight...
She giggled charmingly, whispered something "mischievous" in Lin Chuxue’s ear, causing Lin Chuxue to become even more flushed and embarrassed.
...
Soon, it was eight o’clock in the evening.
This party, which lasted almost all day, finally came to an end.
Following the customs of Jiangzhong, Lin Hanqing and Li Yaqin also arranged accommodation for relatives to spend the night and return home tomorrow.
Lin Chuxue and Jiang Feng, along with Li Yaqin and Lin Hanqing, escorted all the relatives onto the large bus. Afterwards, Lin Hanqing and Li Yaqin also boarded it, claiming to "take care of" their relatives at the hotel.
In fact, seeing their exchanged glances with Jiang Feng and Lin Chuxue, it was clear that they wanted to give the couple some private space at home.
Lin Chuxue knew very well her parents’ intentions. She gave Jiang Feng a tender look, shy and intoxicating.
Of course, watching her parents and relatives finally take the bus and leave, the night deepened, but Lin Chuxue still felt uneasy.
It was... the Fu Family hadn’t made another move!
When Fu Dabiao left during the day, he clearly said he’d come back to settle the score, but until now, there was no news!
This wasn’t the Fu Family’s usual style!
"Let’s go, what are you thinking?" Jiang Feng also felt relaxed at this moment. He shrugged and asked Lin Chuxue.
"Nothing, I’m thinking..." Lin Chuxue lowered her head, frowning slightly.
"Thinking about the Fu Family?" Jiang Feng smilingly exposed her thoughts.
Lin Chuxue was taken aback, did this guy know her mind?
"Don’t worry, the Fu Family won’t trouble you or your family anymore." Jiang Feng said casually, as if narrating an extremely ordinary matter.
"How do you know?" Lin Chuxue was increasingly puzzled, how did Jiang Feng know the Fu Family’s next move so well?
"You were curious about where I went this afternoon, right?" Jiang Feng said earnestly, "I went to the Fu Family and had a talk with them."
"You... went to the Fu Family?!" Lin Chuxue’s eyes widened!
This guy was incredibly bold; he beat so many people from the Fu Family and even Fu Dabiao in public, yet dared to go to their house afterward?
"Yes." Jiang Feng nodded, "It’s better to resolve enmity than to perpetuate it. I went to the Fu Family, laid out the facts, reasoned with Fu Dabiao, he admitted his mistakes, sincerely apologized for his son’s foolishness, and in light of our joyful occasion today, I forgave him and reached a reconciliation. They promised not to cause trouble for your family anymore."
Lin Chuxue was stunned by Jiang Feng’s words; was he kidding?
The dignified Fu Family, after being dealt such a heavy blow, would actually listen to reason from him?!
Even assuming the Fu Family could swallow their pride, did Jiang Feng even know where their gate was?
"Jiang Feng, do you think I’m easy to fool, like a three-year-old?" Lin Chuxue glared at Jiang Feng, staring at him intensely!
"If you don’t believe me, there’s nothing I can do. But it’s the truth." Jiang Feng smiled playfully, "Actually, don’t think you’re so important, there are bigger fish for them; they can’t focus their attention solely on you. It’s just a misunderstanding; clearing it up was enough."
"But... but..." Lin Chuxue still found it hard to believe, it couldn’t be as simple as Jiang Feng made it seem?
He really injured Fu Meng’s arm and publicly beat the Fu Family’s bodyguards, as well as Fu Dabiao himself. Could the Fu Family be magnanimous enough not to pursue it?
Yet, on the other hand, she couldn’t refute Jiang Feng’s words.
Because, indeed, as Jiang Feng said, the Fu Family is a big family and can’t always focus its energy solely on her small family!
If they wanted revenge, the Fu Family would’ve come already. The fact they hadn’t was suspicious!
Deep down, she found it hard to believe things could be resolved by negotiation, but she was sure Jiang Feng did some work that afternoon to appease the Fu Family and achieve reconciliation.
Thinking about him secretly resolving the conflict while she was unaware, an indescribable sense of gratitude welled up inside her.
Now she felt guilty and wronged Jiang Feng, getting emotional during his return, acting petty.
Maybe, just like her cousin said, tonight she really should "compensate" Jiang Feng well...
"Hmph, you’re always acting like a hero, so masculine!"
Though touched deep down, Lin Chuxue still wouldn’t admit it, "If it’s true, then there’s no need to hide it from me; you made me worry for half a day—let’s go home, I’ll properly ’reward’ you tonight~"
As she spoke, her face blushed further, she cast Jiang Feng a charming glance, then took the initiative to hold Jiang Feng’s hand, heading toward the car.
