Chapter 220: Feng Tian Xing, Mother and Daughter Returns
Naturally they were angry to see Shui returned with such a serious injury, but there was nothing they could say after Bai told them what happened. josei
What could they say? This girl was bold enough to take a thunder ball and release it in Feng’s residence. This rotten girl didn’t know how high the sky was. If it weren’t for the close relationship between the two houses, it wouldn’t have been out of line for Feng house to kill her on site.
Even though they were angry, they still called a doctor to heal Shui. Feng house would come for explanations soon. It seemed they would be able to resolve the matter without bloodshed this time.
No one told Feng Wu how the issue with Shui was resolved, nor did she ask. She ate well and slept well and didn’t think about Shui at all.
Feng Wu didn’t walk away from the fight with nothing. When the thunder ball approached her, she had a strong foreboding that death was one step away if she was not careful. That strong sense of life or death had opened her eyes. She retreated into closed door mediation for three days to sort out her experience. By the time she came out, Qui house had already delivered the agreed upon compensation. None of it stayed in Feng residence -everything was handed to Feng Wu.
Feng Wu was a rich young lady, she had so many good things in her storage ring. Some were from Madam Lan, some were from Tian, but most were from Qui house.
Without Shui harassing her, Feng Wu’s life returned to being peaceful. But dang it, it was only for a short time.
News came that Feng Tian Xing was coming home soon and she was bringing her daughter with her. The travel-worn mother daughter pair would arrive in a few days.
Xing was Grandfather Feng’s second daughter. She had always been strong and independent. But she didn’t grow up and marry a fine outstanding man from a big house, instead she volunteered to join the troops guarding the entrance between the blood and human races in Blood Moon forest. [notes]
She had left just a bit after Tian was born, about twenty years ago. Funny how fast time flew by. Her return was a joyous event for Feng house.
This time she was accompanied by a young girl, Feng Yanran. To describe Yanran as beautiful would have been an insult.
Ask anyone in the ancient eastern countries to list the best beauties and they would undoubtedly mention Princess Rong Hua, Lan Lanzhou of Lan house, and Qui Ruo Bing of Qui house.
But after meeting Yanran the answer would be Feng Yanran of Feng house.
Yanran’s beauty surpassed all three ladies. She eclipsed any beauty who dared stand next to her. Even Grandfather Feng and Papa Feng were stunned when they saw her. They had not expected the sweet child they knew to grow into such a devastating beauty.
Tian, who normally never bothered with beauties, had to do a double take. He didn’t have much of an opinion about Yanran, but even he had to admire her physical beauty. There wasn’t a single female in the world who could compare to her. Who’d have thought he’d meet a girl capable of holding a candle next to Ming Xi. More surprising still was the fact that she was his cousin.
“Sit down Xing, you’ve suffered these past twenty years.” Grandfather Feng’s eyes stung a little as he looked at his daughter. He owed this daughter the most. She had sacrificed a lot, spending her life at the borders protecting humanity from the asura race.
“Father, this daughter has missed you greatly.” Xing threw herself into her father’s arms.
Grandfather Feng was known to be a strict elder in Feng house. Xing was the only one in her generation who was fearless enough to argue with him. It was clear from their interaction that father and daughter had a good relationship.
“OK, it’s good that you’re back.” Grandfather Feng secretly wiped at his eyes. He didn’t want the kids to see him be so fragile.
“Grandpa! I missed Grandpa a lot!” Yanran’s voice sounded like melodious fairy music. You could spend all day lost listening to it.
“Yanran, you’ve grown up so much. Grandpa remembers when I met you the first time. You were only five back then. In the blink of an eye, you’ve grown so big.” Grandfather Feng lovingly patted Yanran’s head.
It was probably because of the debt Grandfather had to Xing, but he was particularly sweet on Yanran.
Feng Wu had been jealous of her when they were little. She often stole Yanran’s toys and snacks. Of course she was reprimanded every time.
Current Feng Wu didn’t know anything about that past though. She watched the heart-warming scene with a stone face as she stood beside Tian.
Feng Ting wasn’t like Feng Wu. Feng Ting was green with envy. This girl . . . she was just a bastard! And yet she still got the Feng name and so much love from everyone. Feng Ting felt horrible inside, but she was practiced at keep her thoughts hidden. She fixed a smile on her face and looked like a well-behaved junior.
More words of care welled up from Papa Feng. “Let’s go eat. Your sister-in-law had the kitchen prepare all your and Yanran’s favorite foods. Remember to eat a lot. You haven’t had a homecooked meal in so long. The cook is still the same from when you were little.”
Xing’s favorite sister had suffered so much. He couldn’t help but treat her favorably.
“Brother, you and Sister-in-law haven’t changed at all. You both still look as young as the last time we met. Our children have all grown up though. It’s been ten years since they saw each other. Tian, Xiao Wu. You kids have grown up so much. Even you Ting Ting, you look much better now.”
Xing sighed. It was ten years ago that she sent Yanran back to Feng house. Too many things happened that year. It was the saddest, most painful year of her life. She could not protect her own daughter so had to leave her here, to be sheltered by her father.
It took two years for Blood Moon forest to calm enough for her to send for Yanran.
