Chapter 1167 A Second Move



Lu Feng drove straight to the Feng family's house. When he arrived, Feng Zhiyao was still in bed. A servant brought him a cup of tea from the garden, and Lu Feng asked, "What time did he get up?"

"I'm not sure. I only get up when I'm no longer grumpy in the morning," the maid replied.

"At this critical juncture, how can he still sleep?" Lu Feng was also speechless. This servant had worked for the Feng family for many years and said that Feng Zhiyao had been like this since he was a child.

He was spoiled from childhood, with his food, clothing, housing, and transportation all taken care of. Even his toothpaste was squeezed onto his toothbrush every day. He lived the life of a proper young master.

Lu Feng glanced at the time; it was already 10:30 AM. Now, thinking back, he realized that his friend had never asked him to meet in the morning. He couldn't help but walk to the door and knock, asking, "Are you awake yet?"

There was a reply from inside, and then three or four servants pushed open the door and went in. It took them a full hour to come out. Feng Zhiyao had changed into a new set of clothes and looked much better.

"Brother Feng, you're here so early?" Feng Zhiyao greeted him. "Let's have lunch together. I'm going to see my dad this afternoon."

"Don't worry about your dad yet. He's doing fine in the hospital. Can I see the agreement you and your second brother wrote the other day?" Lu Feng asked him. "Is it an unconditional transfer of all your rights in the will?"

“He has realized his mistake. He talked to me a lot that night and cried his eyes out. No matter what, we are family. He is my second brother.” Feng Zhiyao sat down and said, “Whether he is in charge of this family or not, it’s the same. The eldest brother is like a father.”

"Stop acting like an elder brother to me, bring me the agreement." Lu Feng said with a slight frown.

It seems that in Feng Zhiyao's eyes, Mr. Feng used to manage the company while he was in charge of eating, drinking, and having fun. Now that Mr. Feng is about to leave, Feng Zhicheng can take over the original position and let him live the life he used to.

Lu Feng realized that he wasn't being filial at all; he was just crying for so long because he didn't know what to do since he lacked a wealthy backer. Now that he thought he had found one, he wasn't so dejected anymore.

Feng Zhiyao had someone bring over the agreement, and Lu Feng flipped through it while asking, "You have servants taking care of your daily life? You even have someone squeeze your toothpaste?"

“Isn’t this at home? Besides, squeezing toothpaste is so easy, I learned it when I went abroad to study when I was eighteen,” Feng Zhiyao said with a touch of pride.

Lu Feng looked up and stared at him in disbelief.

"Brother Feng, won't you have anyone to take care of you when you go back?" Feng Zhiyao asked incredulously.

Lu Feng didn't know what to say. When he went back home for the New Year, he had to wear cotton-padded trousers to go out and collect charcoal in the dead of winter. The charcoal hammer in the northern winter was colder than the heart that had been betrayed.

The agreement contained many clauses, but most of them were useless. For example, it stipulated that the younger brother should be cared for, that Feng Zhiyao should live in the old Feng family mansion, and that everything should be based on Feng Zhiyao's feelings.

The content was quite long, but it could be summarized in one sentence: Feng Zhicheng was to take good care of him, but he didn't mention any specific needs. Everyone's understanding of the phrase "take good care of him" is different.

"This agreement won't do. You must come up with a supplementary clause," Lu Feng said in a deep voice.

“My second brother wouldn’t harm me,” Feng Zhiyao said casually.

Lu Feng looked up at him. He had always thought that Feng Zhiyao was extremely easy to manipulate in front of him, but Lu Feng forgot one thing: an easy person to manipulate will be manipulated by many others.

This thing is just like picking up girls. The girl you think is easy to get might be the same to someone else!

"Would Brother Feng harm you?" Lu Feng countered.

Feng Zhiyao remained silent for a long time before finally saying, "Then what should we do?"

“Here’s what we’ll do: you write me a power of attorney, and I’ll act as your agent. Then we’ll draft a supplementary agreement. The contents must be identical, such as your annual dividends and your rights. If any of these contents are violated, the agreement will be invalid, and you will still enjoy the rights stipulated in the original will,” Lu Feng said.

Lu Feng's thinking was simple: he wanted to include the board's support for him in Jiafeng Group in the agreement, so that he would have a guarantee.

“That’s not a good idea. I’ve already talked to my second brother.” Feng Zhiyao didn’t think Feng Zhicheng would harm him; in his eyes, they were all family.

“Listen to me, call the lawyer over. Call your second brother and tell him you need to add some details. Don’t let him come. Just send any lawyer.” Lu Feng thought for a moment and said, “Don’t tell him I’m here, and don’t say I brought it up.”
