Chapter 370 Young Master Feng Gets Scammed Again
"Waaaah~ Mother~"
An'an got up from the ground and stumbled towards Wan Qiqi, looking utterly pitiful.
Those who witnessed it all thought Feng Gan was worse than a beast, bullying such a small and adorable child.
"I...I..." Feng Gan didn't know what to say in response.
It was clearly this brat who bumped into me and dirtied my clothes, so how did it become him bullying a child?
However, in the current situation, no one can see that the child has done anything wrong.
Even if the child is wrong, Feng Gan shouldn't scold him.
Wan Qiqi's heart melted as she watched her little baby run towards her, crying.
Her precious, adorable child, whom she had raised with such care, was bullied like this!
Wan Qiqi carried An'an straight towards Feng Gan.
"What do you mean, 'you'! Just because you have a relative who's an official in the state doesn't mean you can act so arrogantly."
"It's one thing to cause trouble at the opening and harass the dancers at Mingyuefang! But to come and cause trouble at Xinglong Restaurant time and time again afterward, what are you up to?"
"You want to get revenge on my husband because you think he's in your way, right? You want to ruin Xinglong Restaurant, right?"
"Adults should handle their own problems. What kind of person are you to bully a child?"
"Let's go! We'll go to the prefecture and find the prefect himself, and see what he has to say..."
Feng Gan was completely bewildered by Wan Qiqi. He quickly shook her off, took two steps back, and showed a hint of fear on his face.
Why is this woman so angry?
She still needs to go to the prefecture to find the prefect?
Has she gone mad?
Wan Qiqi was certainly not crazy; in fact, she was extremely calm.
Feng Gan always claimed that his brother-in-law was a favorite of the prefect, but he dared not go to the prefecture with her.
This is enough to prove that his brother-in-law was just a minor official in the state.
The prefect is in charge of the entire Liangzhou; how could he have time to bother with such trivial matters?
A faint, almost imperceptible smile appeared on Wan Qiqi's lips, vanishing in an instant.
She could hardly hide the anger on her face. She turned to stare at Feng Gan, her eyes slightly red, and said coldly, "What are you afraid of?"
Feng Gan avoided Wan Qiqi's gaze and turned his face away, saying, "Who...who said I'm scared?"
He didn't realize that his tone of voice sounded a bit timid.
In fact, he was a bit of a coward.
He always boasted about having a powerful brother-in-law, but he had only met him a few times and didn't seem particularly close to him.
My eldest sister mentioned everything about my brother-in-law in her letters.
He didn't know if his brother-in-law would care if he actually went to the state capital.
But the prefect would never side with him because of his brother-in-law!
Therefore, Liangzhou is not a place to go!
"Never mind... never mind, I'm a kind-hearted young master, I won't hold it against you." Feng Gan said, lifting his robe stained with sugar. "See? She bumped into me first, I just gave her a few words of advice."
"Mother, he pushed me and poked my head," An'an said tearfully, revealing her red forehead.
"You!" Feng Gan looked at An An's forehead and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Isn't this the red mark from when the child rested their head on Wan Qiqi's shoulder?
What does it have to do with him?
Feng Gan knew that no amount of explanation would be of any use.
Who told them to be a child!
What bad thoughts could a child possibly have?
Wan Qiqi looked at An An with a sense of surprise.
She suspects her daughter has become a spirit!
If she wasn't mistaken, her daughter was faking it.
"Young Master Feng, it seems I must make a trip to the Feng residence to pay my respects to Uncle Feng!"
As the words fell, Tao Ran and Wan Ziyan came down from the second floor.
Feng Gan's facial expressions changed in a spectacular fashion, almost like a theatrical performance.
He didn't expect Tao Ran to be there too!
In fact, he was not afraid of Tao Ran, who was just a scholar.
But he was wary of the Tao family's powerful network!
There was almost nothing in Hefeng Town that could escape the control of the Tao family.
Tao Ran knew exactly what he had done and when.
His father was already disappointed in him, and if he knew about the petty theft he had done, he would surely kick him out of the house.
Being kicked out is not a big deal; the important thing is that his money is cut off, so he can no longer go drinking and having fun!
"Oh, what are you saying, Headmaster Tao? I was just joking with the child." With that, Feng Gan took a silver ingot from his purse, stuffed it into An'an's hand, and said, "Don't cry, here's some money to buy candy!"
In his eyes, anything that can be solved with money is a minor issue.
While everyone was scorning Feng Gan for throwing money around, An An, holding the silver ingot, really stopped crying.
She held the silver ingot in her hand and stretched out her other hand.
An'an's actions stunned Feng Gan and everyone else.
With a puzzled look, Feng Gan took out another silver ingot and placed it in An'an's hand.
Holding the two silver ingots, An'an not only stopped crying but also grinned, "Thank you, big brother~"
Feng Gan “…”
He suspected that the mother and daughter were obsessed with money!
How can there be such a shameless person?
Wan Qiqi sighed, unsure whether she should acknowledge this daughter.
How could such a young child learn to cheat people?
In the end, Feng Gan sacrificed ten taels of silver to resolve this farce.
Just as Feng Gan was about to leave, Wan Ziyan suddenly stopped beside him.
He said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Stop testing me, my patience is running out!"
Feng Gan turned his head and looked at Wan Ziyan in astonishment, meeting his cold and deep eyes.
Why did he feel that Wan Ziyan was different from usual?
Wan Ziyan glanced at him and then looked away.
After everyone left, Wan Qiqi carried An'an to the study and tied Chen Yongnian to the door.
She sat there, staring intently at An'an, and said coldly, "Do you want me to tell you, or do you want me to?"
