He suddenly recalled the other person's description: pitiful background, kind-hearted...
Thinking back on all the things Jiang Qingyue has done, these words just don't seem to fit with her at all.
He couldn't sit still any longer, his face darkening as he abruptly stood up: "No way, I have to go ask this kid what he's thinking. Dealing with someone like that, you might not even know how you died one day!"
How could someone as dim-witted as Feng Zhiwen possibly outmaneuver them?
Shen Tangning spoke slowly and deliberately: "If you go over and scold him now, he'll obediently listen to you and stop having anything to do with Jiang Qingyue?"
Chi Yan paused, pondering carefully. People in love are irrational, especially since Feng Zhiwen was inexperienced and this was his first time experiencing love...
He could even imagine that if he tried to forcefully stop them, the other person would only become rebellious and see it as a test on their love journey!
Chi Yan turned back, looking dejected, and pushed his hand away: "Then what should we do? Are we really just going to let it go?"
Although he was angry that Feng Zhiwen was so easily instigated, he also felt a little reluctant to watch the other party go astray.
Jiang Qingyue is cunning and her approach to him was no accident. She was afraid that he had ill intentions. Her uncle and aunt are old and cannot withstand any stimulation.
His eyes flickered slightly, and he leaned closer, gazing at her expectantly: "Ah Ning, you've always had a lot of ideas, I wonder if you have any brilliant suggestions?"
Shen Tangning chuckled lightly: "Since your cousin doesn't like me, why should I bother trying to win him over? He might not even appreciate it."
Knowing her temperament, Chi Yan pondered for a moment, then raised a finger and promised, "Once this matter is settled, I will personally bring him here to apologize to you!"
She narrowed her eyes, weighing the situation in her mind. This matter seemed to be between Feng Zhiwen and the Feng family, but the two families were related by marriage. If something really happened to the Feng family, the Chi family might also be implicated.
Furthermore, she still harbored resentment over Chi Yan's death in his previous life...
Shen Tangning frowned almost imperceptibly and looked up at Chi Yan: "Don't let anything slip out yet. You'd better test your cousin and see what Jiang Qingyue is really up to."
She also had other plans in mind. In a place like Yanjing, sometimes having power alone is not enough; you also need money.
If she really helped the Feng family solve a big problem, then the other party would definitely owe her a favor.
She wanted the alliance between the Feng and Chi families to be unbreakable.

Chi Yan waited and waited, but Feng Zhiwen did not come to her door for several days.
Left with no other choice, he had to take the time to make the trip himself to the inn where the Feng family father and son were staying, only to find that they hadn't arrived.
Feng Yuan was somewhat surprised to see him: "Ayan, what brings you here?"
Chi Yan greeted his uncle with a smile and said, "I came to see my cousin and also to visit you, Uncle. Isn't he home?"
Mentioning his son, Feng Yuan frowned: "Your cousin is a real handful. I tell him to study, but he just runs around everywhere. Who knows what he's been up to these past few days? He's out early and back late, never seen again!"
Chi Yan frowned, subconsciously sensing something was amiss, and probed discreetly: "He just arrived in Yanjing, he's unfamiliar with the place and the people, could he have made some friends?"
Feng Yuan scratched his head, also somewhat confused: "I'm not too sure either. Anyway, this brat is being very secretive, even keeping it from me."
As he thought this, a sudden thought struck him: "Could he have gotten himself into some trouble outside? No, I have to ask him about it when he gets back!"
Chi Yan looked thoughtful, and then smiled to comfort him, "Your cousin is not a child anymore, Uncle. Don't always treat him like a child. Be more patient when you communicate with him."
At first, he was just a little worried that Feng Zhiwen would be deceived, but now he was actually quite uneasy.
