Under Feng Lingyu's intimidation, Wei Wuyan finally shut up and stopped talking to Qi Yu.
Seeing this, Qi Yu breathed a sigh of relief and smiled gratefully at Feng Lingyu.
Because he seldom smiled, the smile seemed a little stiff. Perhaps Qi Yu also realized that his smile was not pretty. The smile did not last long before he pursed his lips and started eating in silence.
Uncle Niu picked up the food calmly, as if he didn't notice Qi Yu's embarrassment.
Feng Lingyu looked at this scene thoughtfully, not knowing what this old Niu was up to. Was he really just asking them to come over for a meal?
But she quickly discarded the idea.
In such a cruel and chaotic era, not only did Niu Lao make great military achievements, he also managed to survive and rise to a high position. In the end, he was able to retire and come to Shanghai to retire without being affected by those storms. This is not something that ordinary people can do...
Apart from anything else, his political sensitivity alone far exceeds that of other ordinary officials.
If he was really just an empty-headed reckless man, he would have become cannon fodder in the power struggle in officialdom long ago. There was no way he could have lived a carefree life in the Shanghai Stock Exchange for so many years.
So... with Mr. Niu's intelligence, how could he not notice anything wrong after working in the garment factory for so many years? !
But why didn't he tell others when he found out? With his status, wouldn't it be easy for him to get rid of Wei Chunming?
Feng Lingyu held the chopsticks without moving, immersed in his own thoughts.
"Why, this dish doesn't suit your taste?"
Old Niu tapped his chopsticks on the edge of the bowl and looked at Feng Lingyu with some dissatisfaction.
Feng Lingyu's thoughts were interrupted and she suddenly came back to her senses. She saw that everyone at the table was looking at her curiously. Then she realized that she had been thinking too seriously and had not even touched her chopsticks.
"Xiao Yu, what's wrong with you?" Wei Wuyan looked at her with concern. He didn't think much about it, but just thought that she might be tired.
Qi Yu clenched her chopsticks nervously, fearing that the fairy-like girl in front of her would not like the food she cooked.
"Sorry, I was thinking too deeply just now..." Feng Lingyu smiled awkwardly.
"Hmph!" Uncle Niu snorted in dissatisfaction and taught him a lesson: "Don't be too serious at such a young age. Just eat your meal well!"
"Oh, Xiaoyu must have just been thinking about how to thank you for speaking up for me today. I wasn't distracted on purpose! Right, Xiaoyu?"
As he spoke, Wei Wuyan winked at Feng Lingyu, signaling her to agree.
He was anxious. Xiaoyu was the type of person who would respond to soft words but not hard ones. This old man also seemed to have a tough personality, so he had to avoid getting into a fight!
"I..." After saying one word, Feng Lingyu paused for a moment, as if he had made up his mind. He looked directly into Uncle Niu's eyes without dodging, "I really want to know, did you really not know what Wei Chunming had done before?"
As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a bomb dropped into a calm water, causing the waves to surge. The atmosphere at the dinner table instantly became stagnant.
Qi Yu's eyes flickered and he looked over in shock, as if he was curious about how Feng Lingyu had the courage to directly question Old Niu.
Wei Wuyan was so shocked that the chopsticks in his hand fell on the table with a clanging sound. At this moment, he wanted to rush over and cover Feng Lingyu's mouth to stop her from talking!
He was also wondering why Xiaoyu spoke so little after arriving at Mr. Niu's house today.
It turns out that he's not unwilling to tell you, he's just been holding back a big one!
Wei Wuyan looked left and right in panic. Niu Lao and Xiao Yu both had sullen faces and said nothing, as if they were in a silent confrontation.
He was already thinking, if these two really "fight", where should he run to...
