Free Web NovelChapter 1570: Chapter 1646: Innate Dominance
The fragile, delicate figure seated on Mr. Feng’s wide and imposing purple sandalwood carved Taishi chair suddenly seemed anything but small. Instead, it was as though the chair was custom-made for her.
Exuding a natural dominance.
Housekeeper Xing nodded and bowed out.
"Wait..." Just as Housekeeper Xing was about to close the door, Sheng Ning suddenly called out, "Uncle Xing, may I call you that from now on?"
Housekeeper Xing was taken aback, his steps faltering.
"Uncle Xing, you’ve devoted most of your life to the Feng Family, working tirelessly for my uncle, and you’ve long been considered family by him. You’re also an elder to me." Sheng Ning stopped there, making her point.
"Thank you!" This time, Housekeeper Xing did not bow; no one is born liking to bow to others.
"You’ve worked hard." Sheng Ning smiled, despite looking exhausted, she still radiated a captivating beauty.
After Housekeeper Xing left, Chen Yingjie stormed in, his aggressive demeanor reminded Sheng Ning of the first time she met him. In the War Wolf Rescue Team’s fourth squad, that aloof fourth squad captain.
"What’s the matter, Captain Chen?" Sheng Ning put down her pen, stood up, and stretched.
"Sister-in-law, you’re going too far." Chen Yingjie was visibly upset, "Do you know what Feng Zhenzhen has been up to these last few days?"
"Tell me." Since granting Feng Zhenzhen the right to manage the Feng Family’s affairs, she hadn’t intervened, trusting that Feng Zhenzhen could handle the internal conflicts and strife of the Feng Family.
That’s enough!
She chose to trust Feng Zhenzhen completely, using the principle that you should not doubt those you employ, nor employ those who you doubt, allowing Feng Zhenzhen to do as she pleased. After all, whatever chaos she caused was already within uncle’s calculated plans, wasn’t it?
Uncle had left her one visible piece and one hidden piece in his strategy while he was alive. The visible piece was Feng Xintong, seemingly harmless but actually a ruthless character. The hidden piece was Feng Zhenzhen, seen by all as worthless, but if used well, she’s a double-edged sword.
No matter what she chose, she couldn’t escape uncle’s plans.
Fortunately, she just let Feng Zhenzhen wreak havoc.
"Alright, I’ll explain." Chen Yingjie sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and downed it before indignantly exclaiming, "This Feng Zhenzhen is a demon; I’ve said all along that she has a black heart. If it weren’t for revenge, she wouldn’t have survived."
"You’re right."
"Sister-in-law, you know and yet let her run wild?" Chen Yingjie widened his eyes; these past days he didn’t dare show himself, fearing Sheng Ning would catch something from him, so he just silently observed everything within the Feng Family. But this also allowed him to witness Feng Zhenzhen’s viciousness firsthand.
He’d never seen a woman resort to such cruel methods.
It was truly eye-opening; even cunning hired soldiers paled in comparison to Feng Zhenzhen.
"For the past month, Feng Zhenzhen has been slaughtering within the Feng Family, killing several people with her own hands. And that’s not all; she captured a girl named Feng Xintong and let the black slaves gang... abuse..." Chen Yingjie hesitated at the last words, his handsome face turning red.
Ultimately skipping over the details, he said directly, "Anyway, she’s tortured her into begging for life, yet unable to die. I can even hear Feng Xintong’s desperate cries. Even though she harmed her before, was there really a need for this? Isn’t it more straightforward to just kill her outright?"
Chen Yingjie is an upright, excellent young man; of course, it’s not that he’s a pushover — had he been a pushover, he would’ve long been unable to overlook Feng Xintong’s plight and rescued her.
