Feng Yanfeng was frustrated as well. “How am I supposed to know? Elder Grain really did agree to my request yesterday!”
What he didn’t say was that when he went to see the elders again, Elder Grain’s attitude had completely turned around. He looked at Feng Yanfeng as if he was looking at a villain… Feng Yanfeng rubbed his forehead in frustration.
Somehow, he couldn’t get Elder Grain’s meaningful look out of his mind. It made him feel that something was about to happen.
Lady Wang cringed when Feng Yanfeng shouted at her. She didn’t dare voice any more complaints, but she was already beginning to hatch a new plan.
She had always had a plan B.
The elders had been plan A. Things would be a lot easier if they agreed to kick Feng Wu out of the clan.
The Gu family was her other way out.
After she left the study, she went to see Lady Gu.
“You want the Gu family to force the Feng clan’s hand?” Lady Gu smiled bitterly and shook her head. “That won’t happen.”
“Why?!” Lady Wang was confused. “Didn’t Feng Wu injure you and four of their sons? How can the Gu family stand it?!”
Lady Gu gave her a strange look.
It gave Lady Wang the creeps. “Why are you looking at me like that?”
Lady Gu said, “Do you really not know?”
Lady Wang shook her head.
Lady Gu said, “I went to beg my brother, but he turned me down, so I went to ask my parents for help. My mom told me a secret.”
Lady Wang asked, “What is it?”
Lady Gu took a deep breath and said, “All Spiritual Kings are forbidden to take part in this matter. Breaking the rule is punishable by death!”
Lady Wang put a hand on her chest. “Where did that come from? Why didn’t I hear anything?”
Lady Gu shook her head. “My mom doesn’t know either. She said that my brother told her. I think my brother knows where that order came from.”
Lady Wang asked, “Could it have come from your brother?”
Lady Gu frowned. “I don’t think so. That wouldn’t make sense.”
Lady Wang said, “That is to say, as long as we don’t use force, we can do whatever we want, like trying a woman’s way.”
Lady Gu’s eyes lit up. “Do you have any suggestions?”
Lady Wang had been thinking these days, and she had actually come up with a plan. However, it would need Feng Wu’s participation to work.
“That’s it! My mother will be celebrating her 80th birthday in a few days!” Lady Gu cried out. “That’s a great opportunity!
“In the next few days, we can befriend Feng Wu. Only then will she go with us.” There was a sinister look in Lady Gu’s eyes.
Lady Wang asked curiously, “Can you befriend Feng Wu now?”
Lady Gu narrowed her eyes. “As long as we can defeat her in the end, I don’t mind putting up with her for a little longer.”
Her tone gave Lady Wang the creeps.
Feng Wu didn’t go to the restricted area in the next few days, because she knew that it wasn’t the right time yet, and she didn’t want Feng Yanfeng to notice her relationship with the elders.
“Xiao Wu, I’ve been a little nervous lately. It’s like I’m waiting for a sword hanging above my head to fall, but it just won’t fall,” Chaoge complained to Feng Wu..
