Female Novel
Chapter 260
Yun Jiaming’s face was ashen. He held his head down, clenched his fists, and punched his amputatedleg, as though he was blaming himself for being useless.
“Don’t be like that, Dad,” said Yun Muqing as she stopped him. She wiped her tears while refuting hermother, “That’s too much, Mom. Didn’t we live lavishly before Dad’s accident? We used to live in a villaand drive luxury cars.
“Dad had to resign after his leg was amputated, but you didn’t change. You continued to liveexcessively and used up the family fortune. You can’t blame our predicament on anyone else butyourself. As a wife, instead of taking care of the household, helping your husband, and teaching yourchildren, you constantly complain about the family while being extremely greedy. Ask yourself, do youqualify as a wife?”
Li Fenglan could not find a retort to that. In her desperation, she said, “So you think you can talk backto your mother just because you’ve grown up? Look at the daughter you’ve raised, Yun Jiaming!”
As the tension in the room was building up, Chu Feng stood up, poured two cups of tea, and said,“That’s enough, Muqing, you should save your words.”
“Mrs. Mu, Muqing is right. As a family, we should not only share our riches but also our hardships. Aslong as a family is united, they can overcome most obstacles.”
Li Fenglan frowned and threw the teacup that Chu Feng offered her. She pointed at Chu Feng’s noseand scolded, “Who do you think you are to tell me what to do? Do you think you’re old enough to teachme about moral principles?”
She had been looking for an outlet to vent her anger, and Chu Feng happened to be there.
“You unlucky jinx, nothing good has happened in our family ever since you came along. This is all yourfault! First, you ruined her marriage with Mr. Li. Now, you’ve caused Muqing to lose the contract andruined her chances of promotion. It’s all your fault, you useless bum!”
Chu Feng frowned. He had been all but civil toward Li Fenglan, but she responded like a mad dog.
“You’re too much, Mom. Why are you scolding Chu Feng when he hasn’t even offended you?” said YunMuqing angrily, speaking up for Chu Feng.
“Hmph! He is incapable and incompetent. That’s a grave offense!” Li Fenglan crossed her arms andgrunted, then continued, “Chu Feng, aren’t you Muqing’s husband? If you’re so capable, snatch thedeal back and make Yun Xiaoyue give up her position for my daughter. Can you do that?”
Yun Muqing said in exasperation, “Mom, what does this have to do with Chu Feng? How could you…”
“Of course!”
At that moment, Chu Feng suddenly spoke with a calm yet confident voice.
“I promise you, before noon tomorrow, Yun Xiaoyue will hand the deal back to Muqing willingly. I’ve toldyou, Muqing, no one can take away what belongs to you.”
Yun Muqing and her family looked at Chu Feng with utter shock.
Why would Yun Xiaoyue hand the deal back when she had already laid claim on it? That was like
giving away a golden goose.
Either hell had frozen over, or she must have hit her head on something!
“Haha, what a joke!” said Li Fenglan, who sneered and proceeded to say, “If you are really able to do it,I’ll serve you tea and apologize to you!”
Chu Feng nodded his head and said, “It’s a deal.”
Yun Muqing looked at Chu Feng’s masculine face with equal parts of admiration, surprise, and hope.
Could he really do it? novelbin
When Yun Xiaoyue arrived at the Yun Group office building in the morning, she was in high spirits.
She had been flipping the thick contract in her hands since the night before, but she was still asexcited.
That was a contract worth 50 million, and it was a cooperation with the Chamber of Commerce of theFour Seas, the leader of Jiangling’s underworld. She would be rolling in dough if she could establish afriendly relationship with that wealthy organization.
After receiving the news, her grandfather immediately called her to praise her and tell her that thedirector position belonged to nobody except her. Moreover, it was not impossible for her to take overthe position of company chairman in two or three years’ time.
“Hmph! Yun Muqing, no matter how much more capable and better than me you are, what can you do?I’ll make sure you won't rise again!”
