"Little sister, let me tell you something—Bujuo already knows about this, and our father knows too. The order's already been given to prepare the men. You cancel it now, and you think Bujuo will just let it go? You think Father's words were just idle talk?" Dongfang Jinxing's tone shifted sharply. "Surely you know what Father is like. His word is law—no one can refute him, not you and not me! Besides, ever since Bujuo returned, the old master has doted on him absolutely. If Bujuo asked for the stars in the sky, the old master would find a way to get them for him. You think canceling it will stop Bujuo? You've stirred his interest—the old master will make sure his wish is granted no matter what!"
"That..." Dongfang Xiaocui was struck dumb. She understood Dongfang Jinxing's words perfectly well. She knew exactly what kind of man the Dongfang old master was—once he decided on something, it could never be changed. And with Dongfang Bujuo involved, this was as good as set in stone. There was no changing it now!
"All right, little sister. Talk to your husband. It's just an illegitimate daughter—let it go. He doesn't want the old master to be displeased either, does he?" Dongfang Jinxing said. "I'll hang up now if there's nothing else. You calm him down."
"All right..." Dongfang Xiaocui had no choice but to hang up.
The room was very quiet, so Feng Tianqi had heard every word between Dongfang Jinxing and Dongfang Xiaocui. He was beside himself, utterly shaken—he had never imagined things could come to this!
Now that the Dongfang old master had intervened, this was beyond the reach of ordinary people. Unless the Feng old master could make a call and intercede in person, there was no turning this around.
But the crucial problem was that Feng Tianqi could absolutely never persuade the Feng old master to plead for mercy. Xu Shilan had never been acknowledged into the family, and she was only a daughter. The Feng old master would never offend the Dongfang old master on his account!
And at a time when Feng Shihua had "poisoned" Feng Nitian, nothing Feng Tianqi said to the Feng old master would make him open his mouth to help...
"Tianlin, I've done everything I could, but... you know what my father is like..." Dongfang Xiaocui said weakly, looking at Feng Tianqi.
"Hmph!" Feng Tianqi gave a furious snort and said, "You good-for-nothing woman—you can't do anything right and you ruin everything you touch!"
"Tianlin, I was wrong..." Dongfang Xiaocui could only cautiously make amends.
"Wrong? What's the use of being wrong?" Feng Tianqi waved his hand impatiently and turned to leave the room. His mood was in utter turmoil. Dongfang Xiaocui had made it so that this matter could no longer be changed—and since it could not be changed, he would have to think of a countermeasure!
If it were an ordinary expert, that would be one thing, but it had to be a Heaven-rank early-stage expert of the Dongfang family! This was an existence even Feng Tianqi could not face head-on. Feng Tianqi was currently at the peak of the late Earth rank. Though he was on the verge of breaking through to the Heaven rank, and had recently shown signs of doing so, he was still Earth rank after all. Even if he broke through to the early Heaven rank in the next few days, he would still be unable to contend with a long-established early-stage Heaven-rank expert! (To be continued)
