Chapter 98: On the Verge of Eruption



"Oh, it's nothing. We were just thinking we had nothing to do, so we brought the kids and the elders out for a stroll."

"Oh, I see!" Wang Xingda nodded, looking at Shen Fenghua's face, which was even more beautiful and radiant than before, and suddenly felt a little itchy in his heart.

Wow~ This girl is getting prettier and prettier. Just looking at her makes him feel uneasy and uncomfortable.

But thinking about the person behind her helped me restrain myself.

My purpose in speaking up this time is to stir things up without being offensive.

"Grandma, you're surprisingly healthy!"

Grandma was very perceptive; she immediately noticed her little girl's slightly stiff back and smiled, saying, "Strong, strong."

"Little girl, who is this?"

“Brother Wang, I’ve dealt with you twice before, and he’s quite chivalrous.”

Shen Fenghua remained calm and composed, making up a story on the spot.

What else can we say?

This person is a wolf in sheep's clothing, no good at all. He used to scheme against me with Shen Huixiu, but he failed and ended up getting himself into trouble instead.

Or perhaps, he was the direct culprit behind Shen Huixiu's disappearance?

Shen Fenghua lowered her eyes, her heart clenching. She herself was fine, but she was afraid that Wang Xingda, that ruthless scoundrel who lived on the edge, would harm the elderly and children.

For a moment, she felt a little annoyed. Why did she have to choose to go out today? If she had just stayed at home, she wouldn't have seen this jinx at all.

"Oh~" Wang Xingda raised an eyebrow. "I didn't expect Director Shen to have such a high opinion of me."

Shen Fenghua laughed, "Not at all, not at all, this is just the truth."

After saying that, Shen Fenghua chuckled and said, "Alright, Brother Wang, you can continue your stroll. Grandma and I won't bother you any longer. We're hungry, let's go get something to eat first."

"Alright, see you later."

After saying that, the group parted ways on the mainland.

As she walked away, Shen Fenghua opened her hands, her palms covered in sweat.

Grandma lowered her voice, "What's wrong?"

“It’s nothing serious,” Shen Fenghua thought for a moment, then said softly without telling the whole story, “This person is not upright. He looks all smiles, but he’s actually two-faced. I’ve dealt with him before, back when he was with Shen Huixiu.”

Shen Fenghua spoke subtly mainly because the child is still alive; if she spoke too clearly, it wouldn't be good for the child to know.

Which other time could it have been with Shen Huixiu?

Grandma's face changed instantly, her eyes filled with disgust. "Pah! So that's how it is."

"Hmm," seeing that Grandma understood, Shen Fenghua said confidently, "This is a complete villain. If you can't bring him down, don't offend him."

It's easy to dodge a spear in the open, but hard to guard against an arrow in the dark.

If you offend a petty person, life will be difficult. You'll be on edge, constantly on guard, because who knows if they'll kick you when you're down on your luck?

Even if you're doing well, if you offend him, he'll find a way to bring you down.

Sigh, just thinking about it gives Shen Fenghua a headache.

If he were just a simple black market dealer, it wouldn't be a big deal; it's business, and you greet customers with a smile. But if it involves something else, then it's a completely different story.

Shen Fenghua sighed. Before Shen Huixiu's matter was settled, Wang Xingda could only keep his distance and greet her with a smile. He absolutely could not offend her before he had a clear understanding of her background.

After all, when it comes to safety, integrity is nothing!

She's terrifyingly realistic!

Grandma was worried, but she didn't say it. Shen Fenghua noticed it and casually said, "Grandma, don't take it to heart. We just need to avoid offending people like him. There's no need to be afraid of him. Meeting him this time was a complete accident. Let's not think about it anymore. Come on, let's go out to eat. I'm starving after walking around like this."

Grandma was hungry, and upon hearing this, she immediately forgot all about Wang Xingda and said, "Come on, let's go eat! Grandma has money."

My maternal grandmother's wealth was immeasurable.

Shen Fenghua chuckled and pinched the cheeks of the two children beside him. "Let's go, let's go eat at a big restaurant today."

The two children were overjoyed, calling out to their grandmother incessantly, their little mouths as sweet as honey, and soon they had their grandmother beaming with delight.

We naturally had a good lunch.

When Grandma got home, she told Shen Fenghua everything. "Don't worry, if anything happens, Grandma can support you. Grandma has more than just this much. As long as you and Xiao Qi are okay, we don't need to risk our lives. That's enough."

These words were spoken with an extremely arrogant tone. Shen Fenghua smiled and said, "Grandma, what you're saying makes me not even want to do any work. Taking good care of my grandma at home is much better than the little money I earn from working."

Grandma laughed heartily, but looking at Shen Fenghua, she felt somewhat sad.

Humans are afraid of comparison.

Without comparison, there is no harm.

She's human too; there are things she knows she should let go of, but she just can't.

Like a child, she really wasn't meant to be.

She had originally planned to save these savings for her old age to supplement her household income, but who would have thought that she would almost die at the hands of these scoundrels before she even had a chance to use them.

Looking back now, it's fortunate she didn't take it out, otherwise, all her savings would have been taken away, and then when she was penniless, she probably wouldn't even have a place to die.

"Grandma," Shen Fenghua had no idea what her grandma was thinking. She was just curious, "What's the story behind all this family wealth? I've never heard you mention it before."
