Chapter 1250: A Flood That Crashed The Dragon King’s Temple
Nuannuan felt overwhelmed by a wave of helplessness.
However, the men from the Nangong family were exceptionally magnanimous towards Feng Shengxuan. After all, Feng Shengxuan was Nuannuan’s big brother. He brought her up and even taught her to be such an outstanding person.
Therefore, no matter how thoroughly Feng Shengxuan had offended the Nangong family previously, the Nangong family laughed it off after simply labeling all of the incidents as ‘a flood that crashed into the Dragon King’s Temple[1]’.
However…
Feng Shengxuan gave everyone in the Nangong family a greeting gift. When everyone opened the gift boxes, they were still shocked by Feng Shengxuan’s generosity even though the Nangong family was not lacking in money.
They were all top-quality old deposit transparent type jade that was shaped into different styles based on the receiver’s age and gender.
Selling any one of these would reap tens of millions.
He had only met the Nangong family once and he was already so ‘enthusiastic’. However, Grandpa Chi, Second Uncle, and Big Brother Chi Yang never received any gifts.
This hostility was too obvious!
Nuannuan looked apologetically at Grandpa Chi and Second Uncle Chi, only to see that they were all smiling. They were not unhappy at all that Feng Shengxuan did not give them any gifts.
Truth be told, Nuannuan knew that Grandpa Chi and Second Uncle Chi were aware that Feng Shengxuan had feelings for her. However, not only were they displeased, they accepted Feng Shengxuan’s existence and cared for him so much.
At this moment, Nuannuan felt extremely guilty.
Simultaneously, a huge hand wrapped itself around Nuannuan’s hand. As he held her hand, he squeezed her hand gently to comfort her.
Nuannuan looked up and met Big Brother Chi Yang’s eyes that glimmered like all the stars in the universe.
Even though he did not say anything, Nuannuan felt somehow soothed from her rising guilt.
After the Nangong family and Feng Shengxuan “let bygones be bygones”, everyone started to treat this “Big Bro” amicably, even though he would contend with the Nangong family in all aspects. Thinking about how Nuannuan had been under Feng Shengxuan’s care for so many years, and now that Feng Shengxuan had stomach cancer, they simply treated him like an emperor.
Nuannuan noticed that her three aunts-in-law and sisters-in-law were helping Second Uncle Chi and Second Uncle Nangong in the kitchen. She was too embarrassed to just sit there. After informing Chi Yang, she went over to help.
Meanwhile, the two elders were playing chess with smiles plastered on their faces.
The six half-brothers sat around Feng Shengxuan and asked him for stories of Nuannuan in her childhood. They also asked him the ways to consolidate their positions as Nuannuan’s big brothers in her heart too. How could they make Nuannuan treat them warmly? How to make Nuannuan treat them as nicely and as naturally as how she treated Feng Shengxuan?
Chi Yang was left alone on the sofa.
Feng Shengxuan looked at Chi Yang provokingly from the corner of his eyes. It was as if he was saying, ‘See this? The brothers of the Nangong family like me more than they like you.’
Chi Yang glanced at Feng Shengxuan, but he was not unhappy.
The elder brothers of the Nangong family were jealous of Chi Yang, but they were not jealous of Feng Shengxuan. This meant that they did not put Feng Shengxuan in the ranks of Nuannuan’s suitors at all.
Chi Yang could not be envious of someone who did not even qualify for the competition.
However…
Not only did Feng Shengxuan ignore Chi Yang, but even the Nangong family’s brothers deliberately ignored Chi Yang.
After all, if not for the big-tailed Chi Yang, their little princess would remain in the house and showered with excessive love every day.
