Chapter 431 - You Are Going to Marry Mommy? (1)
"I'm sorry, Tianyi, I didn't know… Lan Xiyan asked me not to disclose it, but…" Tang Moyu apologized to Feng Tianyi once his cousin left Peach Blossom Garden. She wasn't sure what had truly happened, but looking at Song Fengyan's face, there was no doubt that he'd been through hell, just like she did years ago.
Song Fengyan had the same blank eyes she sported when she had lost everything, and was forced to face the unknown with an uncertain future. She knew how hard it was to find a reason to continue moving forward when all you want to do was to drop on your knees and cry your heart out.
"It's fine. It wasn't like I've known about it for too long. Lianchen and I only found out about it recently." There was a hint of regret in Feng Tianyi's voice that Tang Moyu noticed. Although he and Song Fengyan always argued, they had a better and deeper relationship comparable to real brothers.
They always had each other's back and Feng Tianyi regretted not being able to do anything for Song Fengyan after everything his cousin had done and sacrificed for him. This time, Feng Tianyi made up his mind to get to the bottom of it and find out the truth of what happened between Song Fengyan and Lan Xiyan in the past and what caused their breakup.
He excused himself, leaving the children in Tang Moyu's care as he made several phone calls in private and informed He Lianchen about what had happened today. He wasn't able to do anything for Song Fengyan back then, but not this time. He would find out the truth no matter how nasty it was.
As expected, He Lianchen was also upset once he found out what happened at Peach Blossom Garden when Song Fengyan met Lan Xiyan's daughter, who had ended up as Little Star's friend, But he assured Feng Tianyi that finding out about Lan Yunru would be easier now that they know that she was Lan Xiyan's daughter.
"I cannot promise to give you an answer so soon, Tianyi. But keep an eye on Fengyan, just in case."
Being the oldest of the three, He Lianchen took it upon himself to look after these two. He won't openly admit it, but Feng Tianyi and Song Fenyan were the ones who gave him a chance to start anew after leaving the He family.
"It's alright. I trust Fengyan. Among the three of us, you know that he's the most responsible one. Call me at once if you find something and keep it under wraps, just in case another member of the Song family was involved in it." Feng Tianyi replied.
How can he overlook the fact that his cousin was still part of a wealthy family? Like any other family, the Song family also had internal struggles, and with Lan Xiyan coming from a not so ideal family, Feng Tianyi would have no doubt that someone wanted to get rid of her.
"Fine." He Lianchen agreed. This was one of the things he hated about wealthy families. There would always be someone who was too greedy and was willing to cut familial ties just to get whatever they wanted.
When Feng Tianyi came out from his room a little later, he found the four children splayed on the huge sleeping mat Tang Moyu had spread out on the floor. They were taking a nap, too tired from all the activities they'd done together.
As he looked at Little Star and the girl who could possibly be his cousin's child, Feng Tianyi wondered if things happened for a reason, and now everything was falling in their rightful places.
"Liking what you are reading so far?" He leaned forward to see which part of the story she was in. He saw that she was already halfway through the story and he was curious to see how she would react once she read the ending.
"Yeah. Although I must admit that the MC annoyed me so much from being an arrogant jerk." Tang Moyu said with all honesty. This wasn't the first time they had talked about Feng Tianyi's books and plotlines, and the empress had never attempted to sugarcoat her opinions.
"Perhaps, there's a reason why he is like that, don't you think?" He asked, but his lips already curled up as he had already expected that she would say such words.
"Uh-huh." The empress replied, clearly not buying his reasons. "Don't give me spoilers and let me read in peace."
Feng Tianyi laughed and left her be, before she decided to turn her annoyance on him. He didn't want to pay dearly from his mischief. While she busied herself reading and the children slept peacefully, he went to the kitchen and silently started working on their dinner. But still, once in a while he wondered how Song Fengyan was faring right now.
His cousin had asked for a few days off, which was fine, But Feng Tianyi also knew that he asked to take leave for a reason. He could only hope that he wouldn't confront Lan Xiyan empty-handed. Not only would it turn into a messy situation, but he also didn't want Lan Yunru to get involved in a custody battle if Song Fengyan insisted to exercise his rights as her father.
An hour later, Huo Yunhao was personally picked up by his grandfather, allowing Tang Moyu and Feng Tianyi to have a short talk with the old man. It also didn't take long before Lan Yunru's nanny came to pick her up. Lan Yunru bid goodbye and promised to visit again.
