An Feihua sat as steady as a mountain, looked at the news media, and spoke slowly.
"Dear friends from the news media, please go back. Today's succession ceremony has been cancelled. Thank you all for coming. I hope you can forgive me. I apologize for wasting your time. Today's incident has attracted everyone's attention. We, the An family, will also give you a response later. I hope you will give me some face."
The aura of a long-time leader was a pressure on him just sitting there.
The chief spoke with a sense of majesty yet affability, making everyone feel that such a big shot was actually so humble.
Like an easygoing old man.
The news media put down their cameras and looked at old man An Feihua with respect.
"Okay, Chief, we're leaving."
Those powerful people who came to watch the fun didn't feel comfortable staying, so they all left.
Only three top families were left, and they were the last to stand up.
Duanmu Ping, the patriarch of the Duanmu family, who was over sixty years old, smiled at the old man An Feihua and said, "Haha... Feihua, it's been a while since I saw you. You just stay in your yard every day. When can we have a drink together?"
Old man An Feihua laughed, "Brother, you become lazy as soon as you get home, haha... Drinking is fine, let's go to Zunyuan and have a good drink someday."
Duanmu Ping glared at him with an unpleasant smile, "You only know that you are thinking about my Zunyuan wine."
Zunyuan is Duanmu's property, a tavern that only serves the rich and powerful, not a bar. The wine brewed there is extremely mellow, with an aroma that can be smelled from ten miles away, and is loved by wine lovers.
Old man An Feihua smiled brightly, "It's because your wine is so good!"
His praise is like a golden slogan in advertising.
Duanmu Ping smiled and nodded, "Then I'll wait for you."
The other two families exchanged a few polite words and followed suit.
In the garden, everyone left at once and it became very quiet.
Everyone was relieved. As soon as old man An Feihua showed up, the whole deadlock was resolved instantly. He was worthy of being the backbone of the An family.
But we still have to give an explanation to the outside world.
It is impossible to say that they will stop paying attention after they leave. In fact, they only compromised temporarily because they succumbed to the intimidation of old man An Feihua.
Today's events are not only attracting attention from the outside world, but also from everyone in the An family.
Once it is revealed that An Ruyun is not of the An family's bloodline, the family will have to bring forward a new person in power who is capable of taking on the responsibility.
Those who feel there is an opportunity will wait secretly.
Therefore, everyone stared at the He couple who were sitting on pins and needles.
As for the old man An Feihua who was sitting in the main seat, he did not ask the He couple immediately, but just held the blue and white glazed teacup to his lips and took a sip of tea.
No one spoke, it was dead silent.
Even An Ruyun was so nervous that her palms were sweating, and An Qingmei was also staring at the He couple.
Old Madam Gao Youlan looked at him anxiously and said, "Stop drinking and ask quickly."
Old man An Feihua slowly put down his teacup, glanced at her calmly, and said, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
Then he turned to look at the He couple, and looked at them for a while. His eyes were so sharp that they made the two old people feel uneasy.
"Tell me, how did this child get taken away by mistake?"
Just as the He couple were breathing a sigh of relief, the old man An Feihua said again, "Tell the truth, no adulteration."
The look in his eyes and the intimidating pressure he brought almost scared the He couple to death.
"Father, they are..." An Ruyun wanted to speak to stop him, but was frightened by the old man An Feihua's indifferent look, so she could only shut up unwillingly.
