How could Feng Congqian resist such an adorable creature acting cute towards him? What's more, this adorable creature even calls him "Dad"!
Feng Congqian held back for a long time, but finally couldn't help it and softened his tone: "This is the last time."
Nan Yuanman nodded vigorously: "There will absolutely be no next time!"
Feng Congqian lifted Nan Yuanman from his feet and held her in his arms, immediately smelling the indescribable scent emanating from her.
He couldn't help but frown: "Did your sixth brother take you to clean the latrine? Why do you smell so bad?"
Feng Jingcheng instinctively wanted to refute, but then he thought about the environment in the basement of the swimming pool, which was not much different from a cesspool.
So he slowly closed his open mouth and stood aside like a quail, not daring to utter a sound.
Nan Yuanman blinked and sniffed himself: "No, am I that smelly?"
"Okay." Feng Congqian carried her towards the elevator: "Let's go, Daddy will take you to have Auntie help you take a bath. Has your sixth brother taken you to eat yet?"
Nan Yuanman: "I've eaten, and I'm going to go with Sixth Brother..."
The father and daughter's conversation gradually faded away, leaving Feng Jingcheng alone, forgotten in the same spot.
Feng Jingcheng: "..." Good grief, now that you have a father, you don't want your brother anymore, huh?
In a fit of anger, he glared at the ground, then remained silent and slumped back into his room.
Meanwhile, because of Zhou Baiyu's sudden death, Xie Shuyao, who filed the report, was temporarily unable to leave the police station.
She had just finished speaking with the police and giving her statement when she stepped out of the interrogation room and saw a middle-aged woman dressed in gold and silver walking aggressively towards her and raising her hand to slap her in the face.
Xie Shuyao subconsciously reached out and grabbed the middle-aged woman's hand, but paused when she saw her face: "Auntie?"
The person who came was Zhou Baiyu's mother, Lu Yulan.
"Don't call me! You bitch! What did my Baiyu ever do to you?! You're going to call the police and kill him!" Lu Yulan roared at Xie Shuyao, her eyes bloodshot.
Xie Shuyao's face suddenly turned cold. She flung Lu Yulan's hand away and stared at her intently as she spoke, word by word: "Auntie, get this straight, it wasn't me who killed Zhou Baiyu, he brought it on himself!"
"He did so many bad things, killed so many, and hurt so many children and cats and dogs. He deserved to die! It has nothing to do with me!"
Xie Shuyao raised her chin: "Auntie, if you think I killed Zhou Baiyu, go tell the police and have them arrest me!"
Lu Yulan: "You!"
"Just a small Xie family, what a big mouth!" A low, hoarse male voice rang out, and a short, thin man in a suit walked in, followed by several other men in suits.
"Husband!" The moment Lu Yulan saw the man, tears streamed down her face. She turned and threw herself into his arms, crying, "Our son, our son... is gone!"
Zhou Xingyan gently patted her shoulder, his gaze fixed on Xie Shuyao: "Regardless of whether you are related to my son's death or not, just the fact that you called the police to arrest my son has cemented the feud between the Zhou family and the Xie family!"
Xie Shuyao was not afraid at all. She sneered, "So what if we're married? Did you think I was afraid of you?"
"Yes, my Xie family is just a small Xie family. Your Zhou family is powerful, so why haven't you become the number one family in the capital? Is it because you don't want to?"
Zhou Xingyan's face darkened: "Sharp-tongued!"
Xie Shuyao smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment."
"Oh, right, you misspoke earlier. It's not that the Zhou family and the Xie family have a feud, but rather that the Xie family and the Zhou family are bound to have a feud! As for Zhou Baiyu toying with my feelings and abusing cats, dogs, and children, my Xie family will seek justice from your Zhou family for those innocent lives!"
"Just you wait and see, will your Zhou family fall first, or will my Xie family fall first!"
After saying that, Xie Shuyao disdained to communicate with the Zhou family any further, turned around, and strode away in her high heels.
Lu Yulan glared at her retreating figure with hatred, wishing she could rush up and tear her face to shreds. She looked up at Zhou Xingyan: "Husband, what do we do now?"
"What should we do? We can only ask the ancestor for help." Zhou Xingyan was also deeply troubled. He knew that his son was not on the right path, and he was once happy that his son was chosen by the master because of his wicked ways. But now that Zhou Baiyu was dead and left him with such a mess, he could no longer be happy.
Lu Yulan was unwilling: "So you're just going to let the Xie family go like this? And the Feng family too..."
"Of course not." Zhou Xingyan's eyes darkened. "I will request my master to intervene and make them pay the price they deserve!"
No one can get away unscathed after harming the Zhou family. Those who dare to harm the Zhou family will have to bear the Zhou family's wrath!
Even the most powerful family in the capital is no exception!
-
the next day.
After a good night's sleep, Nan Yuanman got up, washed up, ate breakfast, and then took his small hoe to the back garden to check on his vegetable patch.
After checking on the vegetable garden, Nan Yuanman thought for a moment and sent Xie Shuyao a message to ask how her older brothers and sisters were doing.
Xie Shuyao quickly replied: "The boy who was in a coma is out of danger. The little boy who was lying face down has twisted limbs, and corrective surgery will be difficult."
One of the girls had her tongue cut out and can't speak, while the other's cornea was corroded by chemicals and she needs a suitable cornea to have a chance to see again.
Xie Shuyao didn't brush off Nan Yuanman just because she was a child; she seriously told her about the situation of the four children.
Besides the four children, she also talked about the situation of the cats and dogs she rescued.
The cats and dogs suffered more severe injuries than the four children. Most of them were missing limbs, and even those that weren't missing limbs had lost their tails and ears. Worst of all were the complications they had. Xie Shuyao didn't know how many of them could be saved.
Nan Yuanman doesn't know many characters yet, so she cleverly uses AI to read aloud to help her understand the messages Xie Shuyao sent.
After hearing this, she felt a little tightness in her chest.
Xie Shuyao sent another message: [By the way, the tabby cat you rescued is doing quite well, it's in good spirits, but it keeps meowing and trying to run outside, probably wanting to find you. Do you want to adopt it?]
Nan Yuanman opened the voice chat: "Okay, okay, Sister Xie, you can bring it to me."
Besides this tabby cat, there's also a little white cat she picked up at the family reunion banquet last time.
The little white kitten is still receiving treatment. Uncle Su will bring it to the mountain resort once it recovers, at which point they will have plenty of playmates.
After listening to Nan Yuanman's voice message, Xie Shuyao hesitated for a moment before sending a message: "Yuanman, Sister Xie would like to ask you for a favor. Could you... help me find Tuantuan's body?"
She didn't know if Tuantuan would forgive her, but she wanted to take Tuantuan home and didn't want her to stay in Zhou Baiyu's villa.
It's too dirty.
Nan Yuanman: "Sure."
Nan Yuanman asked Xie Shuyao for her birth date and time, as well as the date she picked up Tuantuan. She also had Xie Shuyao perform a divination, and after calculating the divination, she spoke into voice chat:
"Sister, go back to the big bad guy's house, head southeast, towards the higher ground, and you'll find Tuan Tuan's body where there are logs."
Hsieh Shu-yao: [Great! Thank you for the perfect ending!]
[System]: Xie Shuyao has transferred [amount] to you.
[System]: Xie Shuyao has transferred [amount] to you.
[...]
Nan Yuanman accepted Xie Shuyao's transfer and was about to transfer half to Feng Congqian so that he could use it for charity when his watch suddenly vibrated and a call page popped up.
Nan Yuanman accidentally answered the phone.
Before she could speak, Jiang Lixuan's panicked voice came from the other end: "Yuanman, help!"
