"You what?" Feng Lingyu continued to ask.
Wu Xiaotian gritted his teeth and said, "Ms. Feng, you should tell me your identity first, otherwise... I dare not say it!"
this……
Zhao Biesan, who was standing by, was in great shock at this moment. He probably guessed Wu Xiaotian's true identity.
"Don't dare to say?" Feng Lingyu lowered his eyes and thought of the four major auxiliary families under the Feng family: the Shen family, the Wei family, the Chen family, and the Sang family.
I just don't know which family Wu Xiaotian belongs to...
"My real name is Feng Lingyu, and my father is Feng Dingbang. Who are you?"
Feng Lingyu had previously speculated that someone from one of the four ministerial families might have rebelled or developed rebellious intentions.
Judging from Wu Xiaotian’s reaction, he must have been taught to be loyal to the Feng family.
Wu Xiaotian's face was filled with joy. He didn't expect that the Miss Feng in front of him was really the eldest daughter of the Feng family!
"Miss! Wei Wuyan of the Wei family greets you!"
Wu Xiaotian, also known as Wei Wuyan, knelt on one knee, with his palms facing himself, his thumbs crossed and placed on his forehead.
This was an ancient ritual that people from the auxiliary ministers' families had to perform when facing the direct descendants of the Feng family in ancient times, meaning submission.
But as time passed, this ancient etiquette was only used on important occasions. The rest of the time, people just lowered their heads and avoided direct eye contact to show respect.
"Are you from the Wei family? How are you going to prove your identity? Do you think I'll believe you with just empty words?"
Feng Lingyu said this while glancing at Zhao Biesan who was standing beside him. He was looking straight ahead with lifeless eyes, obviously thinking about something.
Interesting, both of them concealed their identities...
However, this Zhao Biesan is quite calm, and he seems to be very prejudiced against people from big families.
I just don't know whether he is an enemy or a friend.
Wei Wuyan rummaged in his bosom and pulled out a jade plaque. The carvings on it were exquisite and intricate, and it was obvious at first glance that it was not something that could be imitated.
"My father, Wei Chunming, is the current head of the Wei family. I am the third child in the Wei family. My eldest brother, Wei Xingzhi, is my half-brother. This badge is my proof of identity. All the children of the four major families have this badge."
Feng Lingyu took the sign and touched the patterns on it. There was a big word "Wei" in the middle, and a line of small words was engraved next to it: Wei Wuyan.
"Since my father's generation, the four major families have never had any contact with my Feng family. Although you are the third son of the Wei family, you don't have to be loyal to me. I will do what I promised you, and I will not give you any preferential treatment just because you are from the Wei family."
Feng Lingyu threw the sign lightly to Wei Wuyan.
Feng Lingyu thought that Wei Wuyan revealed his identity so that she could help him get revenge more wholeheartedly.
Wei Wuyan was anxious, "Ms. Feng, that's not what I meant. When my grandfather was alive, my Wei family had been in contact with the head of the family, but the head of the family asked us to keep a low profile and said that we should contact him when the situation gets better.
My grandfather had always firmly supported the head of the family, and he had also told my brother and me to firmly support the head of the family! But then my grandfather suddenly passed away, and my father... took charge of the Wei family, and that's when he stopped contacting the head of the family.
Although I am not as smart and capable as my elder brother, I am absolutely loyal to the Feng family's direct lineage."
What Wei Wuyan didn't say was that a big reason why he left home and came to Beijing this time was to find the head of the family.
But when he arrived at the Feng family address left by his grandfather, he found a lot of dust in the yard and it seemed that no one had been there for a long time.
After asking the neighbors, I learned that the Feng family head and his wife had died heroically, and the eldest daughter had gone to the countryside.
In desperation, Wei Wuyan had to use the pseudonym Wu Xiaotian to roam the black market, hoping to accumulate strength and find a chance to go back for revenge.
Feng Lingyu actually didn't know much about the four major families because her father Feng Dingbang had never told her about this.
From what Wei Wuyan said, it seems that when his grandfather was in charge of the Wei family, the family was a staunch supporter of the direct branch.
But his father Wei Chunming...I don't know whose camp he is on.
"Why did you insist on confirming my identity as the direct descendant of the Feng family?" Feng Lingyu always felt that Wei Wuyan knew something.
Maybe Wei Wuyan knows something about that damn wife of the second master of the Feng family?
"Because... I'm afraid you're from the Feng family's illegitimate branch. There's a branch of the Feng family in Shanghai that's doing very well with the Feng family's identity. My father's mistress is close to the so-called second wife of the Feng family...
And there is no way I can have anything to do with them!"
Feng Lingyu now completely believed what Wei Wuyan said.
Because she just learned about the so-called madam from Brother Liu tonight, it was impossible that Wei Wuyan had anticipated this and said this on purpose to deceive her.
I didn't expect that the person Wei Wuyan wanted to take revenge on was inextricably linked to the person I was looking for...
Since he is on good terms with that lady, she must be on the opposite side of me.
Feng Lingyu sneered. While helping Wei Wuyan to get revenge, he could also get rid of one of the lady's right-hand men.
Moreover, the head of the Wei family must naturally be replaced by someone who supports the legitimate branch.
Kill two birds with one stone.
Rather than helping Wei Wuyan to get revenge, the person who benefited the most was Feng Lingyu!
Feng Lingyu didn't expect that when she returned to Beijing to find Brother Liu this time, she would find the big fish Wei Wuyan.
After listening, Feng Lingyu looked at Zhao Biesan who was still in a daze: "Brother Zhao, you have been listening here for a whole night, do you have any thoughts?"
Zhao Biesan suddenly came back to his senses, met Feng Lingyu's gaze, and smiled unnaturally:
"Ms. Feng, you are joking. I am just a small gangster. How can someone like me understand what you just said?"
Feng Lingyu raised his eyebrows and said meaningfully, "Really? I saw that Brother Zhao looked serious just now, so I thought you had something to say to me, too?"
Wei Wuyan also looked over with puzzled eyes. Could it be that Brother Zhao was not an ordinary person either?
"Miss Feng, you are joking. I... am tactless. I will take my leave."
After saying that, Zhao Biesan wanted to leave the room with the puppy in his arms.
"Stop, you just heard so much, why do you think you can walk out of this yard safely?"
Zhao Biesan's movements froze.
He forgot that there are some things that cannot be heard.
Wei Wuyan anxiously pleaded for Zhao Biesan: "Miss Feng, Brother Zhao has always been very sensible. He will not go out and say anything nonsense. Please show mercy."
"How long have you known each other? Do you trust him so much? You don't even know his real name, except that he's called Zhao Bie San!"
Although Feng Lingyu said this to Wei Wuyan, his eyes were looking straight at Zhao Biesan.
Wei Wuyan choked, he really didn't know Zhao Biesan's real name.
"Ms. Feng, if it weren't for Brother Zhao reporting the incident tonight, I would have probably died..."
"Didn't you say that your grandfather taught you to always put the interests of the Feng family first? If I let him go today, if he leaks the news, I will be in danger."
Feng Lingyu said slowly.
"Ms. Feng, Grandpa did say that your interests should be put first, but it is also true that Brother Zhao saved my life. If I don't care about Brother Zhao's life or death, wouldn't I be a heartless and ungrateful person? Can Miss Feng be assured of using me?
Therefore, I will always keep Brother Zhao by my side from now on. If he leaks the news, I will die as a token of my guilt!"
This is the best solution Wei Wuyan could think of.
Feng Lingyu's eyes showed a trace of admiration. If Wei Wuyan gave up on pleading for Zhao Bie San, then she would have to think carefully about whether she could help him get promoted...
