Chapter 279 is a delicious sweet soup
Feng Shuo walked forward, glanced at Zeng Xiaoqin sideways, and curled his lips.
Zeng Xiaoqin immediately became dissatisfied and defended herself with the sweet soup in her hand: "I made soup for my sister-in-law! Doesn't that count as a sign of sincerity?"
"Is your sister-in-law usually not nice to you? How many meals has she cooked for you? What's so special about you making a bowl of sweet soup?"
Feng Shuo's eyelids rolled up and down, and he snorted coldly: "Besides, who are you asking for help? If you persuade your sister-in-law to stay in Jing City, do you think I will tell you the whereabouts of Lu Chen?"
Zeng Xiaoqin was stunned by so many blunt words. She was about to pout and refute, but when she mentioned Lu Chen, her face flushed again and she muttered, "Cousin, you know everything?"
"What do you think?"
Feng Shuo tutted in annoyance, "Your counter-reconnaissance awareness is so limited. Don't try to be an undercover reporter next time."
"No...cousin, how did you know that?!"
Zeng Xiaoqin understood Feng Shuo's words. He should have known Lu Chen's whereabouts, so she was not so anxious anymore.
At this moment, she was eager to know how her relationship with Lu Chen, which had just been established, was exposed?
Feng Shuo ignored her and only asked Zhu Yunying: "The sweet soup doesn't taste good? Don't force yourself. If you don't like it, don't drink it."
"No, it's delicious. It's just a little hot. Let me cool it down."
Zhu Yunying found the quarrel between the brother and sister very amusing and was about to laugh secretly, but she was caught in the act. She was so embarrassed that she could only cough lightly to cover it up.
Zeng Xiaoqin was still calling "Cousin, cousin", while on the other side, Panpan came out supporting Old Lady Feng.
Old Lady Feng poked her cane. "Do you need your cousin to explain this? You went to the sanatorium that day, and you and Lu Chen went out for a while, and you didn't dare to see anyone. You go out early and come back late every day, and you don't see him even at dinner. How come the newspaper office is so busy all of a sudden? Lu Chen is the same. He always comes to your house for no reason, but he calms down after seeing you?
"Who can't see through the little things young people do? What, do you think I, an old woman, have never been young? Back when I was young, I was much more carefree than you! Hiding things is not right. Who's dating whom should have a red seal on their foreheads and be flaunted in public! That's clean and neat."
When everyone heard this, they all chuckled, but Zeng Xiaoqin was unhappy.
"Grandma, who said that Lu Chen and I are already in love? I'm just giving him a chance to see if it works out. Whether it works out depends on his performance. I'm not in a hurry to get married, so why rush into it?"
Old Madam Feng hummed in a serious tone and said slowly, "Dating without the intention of getting married is just hooliganism! You still need to improve your awareness."
As she spoke, she nodded towards Feng Shuo and said, "Ask Xiao Lu to come over in the next two days. I, an old lady, will give him some advice!"
Once these words were spoken, it meant that Old Lady Feng most likely approved of Lu Chen!
Zhu Yunyao was listening to the opera with great interest. Her eyes suddenly lit up and she looked at Feng Shuo.
Feng Shuo was amused by her cute appearance. He reached out and pinched her earlobe, saying happily, "I bought you over with just a bowl of sweet soup."
“…It’s a delicious sweet soup.”
Zhu Yunying held back her laughter and muttered something.
She pulled Zeng Xiaoqin's hand and winked: "Now... why don't you ask?"
"Oh, oh, oh!" Zeng Xiaoqin pursed her lips gratefully towards her sister-in-law, then looked at Feng Shuo obediently, "Cousin, how is Chief of Staff Lu? Do you have any news about him?"
"Chief of Staff Lu?!"
Feng Shuo was so angry at Zeng Xiaoqin's words that he laughed. He couldn't hide the smile on his face and shook his head in response: "He's on a mission. Wait, it's inconvenient to contact him."
"Oh. I'm glad it's a mission. I thought..."
Zeng Xiaoqin stopped talking mid-sentence, and Feng Shuo continued, "I thought he'd given up and decided not to accept the assessment?"
“…”
Zeng Xiaoqin fell silent again.
Her cousin really has to be thrown into the army. Eleven out of ten times, he'll be pissed to death if she talks to him at home!
"Stop talking too much. Xiaoqin and Chief of Staff Lu are a good match."
Zhu Yunwei held Feng Shuo's hand to stop him from targeting anyone else.
Feng Shuo hummed, "...Chief of Staff Lu is quite good."
"Cousin!!" Zeng Xiaoqin's face turned completely red with embarrassment.
Feng Shuo pretended to be surprised: "Why? He's my chief of staff, so why shouldn't I yell at him? Only you, the great reporter Zeng, can yell at him!"
Zeng Xiaoqin kept hearing the call of "Chief of Staff Lu" and could only find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Old Madam Feng stopped her at the right moment and said, "Feng Shuo, stop joking. When will Xiao Lu's mission be completed? Before you leave, have someone come back for dinner. Do you hear me?"
"knew."
Only then did Feng Shuo nod seriously.
The sweet soup has gone cold.
He asked Zhu Yunying if she wanted to go back to the house to drink?
Zhu Yunying looked at the angry Zeng Xiaoqin and coaxed her, "Xiaoqin, thank you for the soup. I will finish it."
As she said that, she asked Feng Shuo to bring the soup and accompany her back to the house.
Zeng Xiaoqin's temper calmed down a little.
"Sister-in-law, if you like it, I'll make it for you next time."
…
Back to the house.
Feng Shuo held the person in his arms and fed him soup mouthful by mouthful. His movements were gentle and careful, but he never spoke a word.
Zhu Yunying was so busy eating one mouthful after another that she didn't bother to ask him what was wrong.
Could it be that he was unhappy just because he joked with Xiaoqin?
So he doesn't agree with Zeng Xiaoqin and Lu Chen being together?
"That's enough. I'm full."
Zhu Yunying couldn't eat any more, so she reached out to stop Feng Shuo and gave him a reproachful look. "You're feeding me on purpose, don't you want me to ask you?"
"What do you want to ask?"
Feng Shuo blew his eyes, his joy and anger were indistinguishable, and his tone was flat.
"What happened to Chief of Staff Lu? Do you disagree with Xiaoqin and his relationship? Or do you not want to tell Xiaoqin that he is in trouble now?"
Zhu Yunying stared into Feng Shuo's eyes and saw a slight flash of surprise in the man's eyes.
A smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "Yaoyao is getting smarter and smarter."
"What? Was I stupid before?"
“…”
Feng Shuo didn't respond, but Xu Hansheng's face flashed through his mind, and his breathing became heavier.
"What happened? Can you please stop dithering? I'm not Xiaoqin, I promise I won't get excited."
In the end, Zhu Yunying had no choice but to throw herself into Feng Shuo's arms, hugged his neck, and kissed him on the face.
"Brother Feng..."
It had been a long time since he heard this name, and Feng Shuo's Adam's apple moved up and down involuntarily.
"Call again." He said in a hoarse voice.
Zhu Yunying raised her eyebrows: "Tell me first, what happened?"
Feng Shuo was helpless, so he lifted her onto his lap and hugged her again before speaking, "Chen Xushan hijacked the car, Luo Weiguo set fire to the farm, and now a group of people have escaped. Jingshi is in turmoil."
"What's the problem with Chief of Staff Lu?" Zhu Yunying was shocked and frowned.
Feng Shuo said in a deep voice: "I arranged for him to send Shen Xushan to the farm. At the beginning, I asked Shen Xushan to cooperate and wanted to drive Old Min's mother away. I promised him that he could go to the farm to visit. In fact, he could have gone, but he just did it a little earlier as a favor. I didn't expect..."
"So we can't go back to the army?"
Zhu Yunying thought, if I don’t catch the person, I definitely won’t be able to go back, right?
"It's not that difficult. He hijacked the car and took several people with him. His target is obvious. The police have already started investigating and they will find him soon. Don't worry."
Feng Shuo comforted Zhu Yunwei, and both of them remained silent.
Nor did he notice that a figure at the door silently withdrew his hand from knocking on the door——
