He had originally been provoked into a heated argument and intended to have a good fight with the other party, but in the end he managed to hold back.
Then, he couldn't help but take several deep breaths to barely suppress the anger in his heart. He just glared at the other person with annoyance, as if to say, "You know very well how annoying you are."
In fact, Feng Beichuan wasn't just looking for trouble because he had nothing better to do. He was simply annoyed by Li Chang'an's unwarranted concern for Ye Lingxiao.
Perhaps even Feng Beichuan himself didn't know which jealousy pot he had broken this time.
However, he couldn't direct this nameless anger at Li Chang'an, so in the end, he could only direct all his anger at Ye Lingxiao.
Just then, Feng Beichuan caught a glimpse of Ye Lingxiao's face out of the corner of his eye, and he immediately felt annoyed again, muttering to himself, "This guy is really an eyesore!"
"Hey, why do you have to put off something this important until tomorrow! Why don't you go tell that old emperor right now and keep him up at night?"
Feng Beichuan frowned as he looked at Ye Lingxiao, his expression appearing exceptionally rude.
Upon hearing this, Li Chang'an was speechless, thinking to himself that this guy really never fails to say something shocking.
If Emperor Xingchang were to hear what he just said, he would probably either be so angry that he coughed up blood, or even die of rage.
Thinking of this, Li Chang'an frowned slightly. She felt that Feng Beichuan was too outspoken. Even if he was fearless and even Emperor Xingchang had to be wary of him for three minutes, he still couldn't be so presumptuous.
After hearing these words, Ye Lingxiao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly. Then he looked at the other person with a very strange look in his eyes, and couldn't help but wonder if this person had taken the wrong medicine or drunk too much.
"Alright, stop standing here and let's grab a bite to eat!"
Just as the atmosphere was starting to become strange, Li Chang'an suddenly spoke up to ease the tension slightly.
Upon hearing this, Feng Beichuan's expression softened. He then stopped paying attention to Ye Lingxiao and happily followed Li Chang'an into the courtyard.
At the same time, he didn't forget to roll his eyes at Ye Lingxiao with disdain.
The petty person has gained power!
Ye Lingxiao had a sullen face and couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to this guy.
But the good times didn't last long. No sooner had they sat down than Li Chang'an solemnly said, "Let's treat this simple family dinner today as a welcome back feast for General Lingxiao! He has been away for so many days and must be exhausted. Lingxiao, let me first offer you a bowl of wine."
After saying that, Li Chang'an picked up the bowl of wine in front of him and drank it all in one gulp.
"Alright, let's all pay our respects to General Lingxiao together!"
Deputy General Sun then picked up his wine bowl, and the other soldiers followed suit, each raising their own bowls to show their respect.
What a bunch of clowns!
Now, Feng Beichuan is the only one among these people who did not toast Ye Lingxiao.
Instead of feeling embarrassed, he silently harbored resentment and directed his anger at Deputy General Sun, who was the instigator.
Actually, he wasn't so narrow-minded as to be unable to bear everyone's enthusiasm for Ye Lingxiao. Besides, he simply didn't like to meddle in people and things that had nothing to do with him.
But what's strange is that Li Chang'an, that woman, repeatedly showed her favor to Ye Lingxiao, and every time she said something about how hard he had worked and how considerate he was.
He was absolutely furious!
All you do is complain about how hard others work, but don't you ever think about how hard your own life is just as tough as anyone else's?
I really don't understand. You're neither a bodhisattva nor a saint, yet you insist on being considerate of completely unrelated people all the time. Why don't you ever care about me?
Feng Beichuan couldn't help but mentally complain again. Actually, the previous ones weren't that important; only the last sentence was the most important.
Li Chang'an, who was standing to the side, suddenly felt a bit uneasy. Then, for no apparent reason, he looked up and met someone's gaze.
Those eyes, filled with resentment, made Li Chang'an feel uneasy, as if he had fallen into a wet, cold, sticky, and dirty swamp, making him feel unable to move.
Immediately, Li Chang'an frowned again, and began to ponder in his mind what exactly was wrong with this person this time.
Unfortunately, after racking her brains for a while, she still couldn't figure out the reason.
That's enough.
This guy is probably just acting crazy again; we can just ignore him.
After failing to find the answer, Li Chang'an was too lazy to waste his energy thinking about such useless things anymore. So he found a satisfactory answer for himself and then appropriately looked away.
Seeing her indifferent expression, Feng Beichuan felt increasingly uncomfortable. So he kept a sullen face, neither speaking nor touching his chopsticks, as if there was a dark, unyielding cloud hanging over his head.
"Tsk, what are you doing!"
Just as everyone was enjoying their drinks and conversation, a discordant voice suddenly broke into the harmonious atmosphere.
Everyone's attention was immediately drawn to it.
Feng Beichuan was glaring angrily at Li Changsheng.
Looking at Li Changsheng, he saw that the child had a bewildered expression. There were still some bones and fat piled up in front of him, and his cheeks were bulging, indicating that there was still food left in his mouth.
"Don't you have your own bowls and plates? Why are you touching mine?"
Feng Beichuan's brows were now furrowed in a mess. Ignoring the gazes directed at him, he began to berate Li Changsheng without further ado.
Li Chang'an looked at the two people and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, wondering how Li Changsheng had provoked this easily angered cat.
"I don't have enough left. Since you're not eating anyway, why don't you leave the plate for me?"
Li Changsheng, on the other hand, was quite easygoing; he even had a smile on his face when he said this.
But Feng Beichuan wouldn't have it. He immediately said, "What's mine is mine. Why should I let you use it? Even if I don't use it, I can't give it to anyone else!"
His remarks left everyone present feeling both amused and exasperated.
Li Chang'an was filled with helplessness, thinking to himself that this was truly the first time he had ever seen such a willful man.
And what he just said—isn't that blatantly taking advantage of someone else's position?
However, Li Chang'an only kept these thoughts to himself and vented his frustrations.
