novelxo Chapter 192
Chu Feng was extremely furious that he could eat someone alive. He thought of kicking the bed to release his anger but he worried his kick would wake his daughter who was asleep, so he hammered his thigh angrily.
After coming out of the bedroom, Chu Feng straightaway answered Luo Gang's call. With a gloomy face, he said crossly, "Luo Gang, I want your head on a platter if the matter that you wish to report to me now is not important enough!"
Err... On the other end of the line, Luo Gang broke out in a cold sweat. The man was absolutely clueless about what he had done which greatly upset his boss.
So, Luo Gang went straight to the point. "Feng, it's about your younger sister, Zhou Ying. She was slapped by a member of the Sun Family and they snatched all the jewelry you gifted her." What? Chu Feng's eyes flickered with coldness after he heard Luo Gang's report. The wicked fiery venereal desire within him vanished without a trace as rage and gloom overwhelmed him. Without any delay, Luo Gang immediately sent a video clip to Chu Feng.
It turned out that Luo Gang's men were on an undercover mission in the shopping mall this morning. Coincidently, they came across the dramatic conflict between Zhou Ying and Tang'e. Since they knew the relationship between Zhou Ying and Chu Feng, they recorded the video and showed it to Chu Feng just so the latter would be clear with the situation.
So she thinks my younger sister is unworthy of those jewelry that were worth a few million, huh? How dare she slapped her after she took away the jewelry I gave her and even scolded and called her a b*tch!
"Well, well, what a 'nice' mother-in-law she is!" A cold menacing look flashed across Chu Feng's eyes as he was engulfed in a burning flame of rage.
He was busy choosing lavish gifts for Zhou Ying so as to marry her off with dignity, while the Sun Family from her husband's side was treating her like dirt.
“Feng, the Sun Family really went too far. My men would have taught those bastards from the Sun Family a lesson if they weren't on a mission. Who the heck do they think they are?" Luo Gang snapped furiously. He felt angry for Chu Feng.
Chu Feng did not lose his composure although he was in rage. His eyes flickered as he said coldly, "I've warned Sun Mingxuan before, if he dares to mistreat my younger sister, I'll make his family pay for it! But apparently, my warning fell on deaf ears, Sun Mingxuan allowed Tang'e to slap and insult Zhou Ying in public. He did not do anything to protect her. I think the Sun Family must have some prominent figures who got their back this time."
Luo Gang, who was on the other end of the phone, said solemnly, "Yes, indeed. According to my investigation, Sun Mingxuan's grandfather, Tang Taishan, previously served as the Lieutenant Governor of Jiangbei. Even though the old man was retired, he still has quite some influence and connections in the political world. For instance, the current mayor of Jiangling City, used to be his secretary. The mayor used to be under his guidance. As the Lieutenant Governor for a province, he could be considered a Second Ranked statesman [1], or even half a Provincial Governor. Plus, he is protected by a big fish-the mayor of Jiangling City. Basically, the man can do whatever he wants in Jiangling."
Chu Feng replied with a flat and unemotional voice, "No wonder my warning was useless against Sun Mingxuan. It seems they want to warn me not to overstep the mark."
He smirked in disdain, fully displaying his ability and desire to retaliate against the Sun Family. It seems I'm being too low-profile that they forget who led some three hundred thousand men, risking their lives to maintain the peace of the nation for them. I'm being too kind that they forget they mustn't mar the pride of the person nicknamed Ashura, who slaughtered and completely wiped out the whole Western Underworld!
"Luo Gang, contact the military theater at Xi Ye, bring my General uniform over here as soon as possible!" Chu Feng stood tall and upright while overlooking the busy and brightly lit city. "On the wedding day of the Zhou Family, I wish to go in person and support my younger sister."
"Yes," Luo Gang answered solemnly.
Former Lieutenant Governor of Jiangbei? A Second Ranked statesman? The famous Tang Taishan who trained a lot of political apprentices? Chu Feng smirked while slowly spreading his palms. "Let's see whether he is ready for my challenge."
With a simple slap, the number of Second Ranked statesmen he managed to 'kill' was probably greater than Tang Taishan's age.
Suddenly, dark clouds covered the night sky and wind howled roughly through the air. It seemed something big was going to happen in Jiangling City!
Early in the morning the next day. Chu Feng was busy preparing breakfast for the whole family in the kitchen. Suddenly, Yun Muyu screamed and dashed anxiously downstairs, without having any shoes on her feet.
"Ah! Oh my god, guys, big news! Big news!"
[1] The Qing dynasty, much like previous dynasties, used an "official rank" system. This system had nine numbered ranks, each subdivided into upper and lower levels, in addition to the lowest "unranked" rank: from upper first pin, to lower ninth pin, to the unranked, for a total of 19 ranks. The Rank used in this story appears to imply that the position one holds in the time of the story would be equivalent to the Rank that was being used in the ancient times.
