Feng Wu was telling the truth. Feng Yanfeng really was the culprit.
“Stop!” Feng Yanfeng finally returned to himself. He glared at Feng Sang, snatched the sword from her hand, and threw it on the ground. He then bellowed, “Behave yourself and take your mother back home!”
Feng Sang felt aggrieved. “Father…”
Infuriated with shame, Feng Yanfeng yelled, “Get out!”
His voice was so loud that without the protective formation, Fallen Star Yard would have been blasted to pieces.
But Feng Wu only smiled, because she could see that Feng Yanfeng was ashamed of his own conduct.
It grew hushed after he shouted those words.
Everyone in the yard gave Feng Yanfeng indecipherable looks, and the atmosphere felt extremely awkward.
Feng Wu cleared her throat. “Uncle, how can I help you?”
She knew that her uncle had the habit of sitting on the fence, which was why he had been so nice to her ever since he was convinced that there was something going on between Feng Wu and Jun Linyuan.
He had been like this back then as well.
Feng Yanfeng had doted on Feng Wu when she was still engaged to Jun Linyuan. She used to be the apple of his eye, and he used to treat her better than his own daughters.
By now, Feng Yanfeng could finally think straight again. He cleared his throat to ease the embarrassment.
“Xiao Wu…” Crossing his hands behind his back, Feng Yanfeng said, “As you may know, your sister is in critical condition at the moment. Aren’t you an excellent doctor? Can you help her?”
Feng Wu didn’t want to, because it would only bring her more trouble. Feng Liu must be so desperate to get rid of that baby now.
There was no way that Dugu Mengxi was the father, and the baby would become a time bomb if it was brought to term.
Feng Wu was about to say no, when her mother rushed out of the house.
“Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu —” Taking Feng Wu’s hand, the beautiful lady hesitated.
Feng Wu was bewildered. “I thought you went back to your room.”
The lady looked at Feng Wu with her beautiful teary eyes, and it broke Feng Wu’s heart to see her like this.
She could never say no to that look…
Rubbing her head, she said, “Fine, fine. Mother, please just tell me what you want, and I’ll say yes.”
The lady smiled, and the smile was as resplendent as fresh flowers after the rain.
Taking Feng Wu’s hand, the lady whispered, “I was too weak when I gave birth to you, and I almost couldn’t make it. You uncle was the one who brought the imperial physician…”
Feng Wu glanced at Feng Yanfeng and wondered if that was true.
Feng Yanfeng rubbed his hands together and said, “It’s been a long time. I didn’t think you would remember that.”
The lady could instinctively tell good from bad, so even she frowned when Feng Yanfeng smiled obsequiously at her.
She didn’t see many outsiders around, so she told Feng Wu, “You don’t have to return the favor if you don’t want to.”
Feng Wu was speechless.
She would always return a favor; that was her principle.
However, she would be the one to decide how to return it.
Feng Wu glanced at Feng Yanfeng. “Is Feng Liu very sick?”
