Chapter 222 - He didn't help people for their appreciation; but if he did receive it, that was certainly very heartwarming. (2)
“I’ve heard.” Feng Zeyu was reading through the contracts carefully. When it came to the profits of his brothers, he would not allow any mistakes.
“You’ve heard? Then what is your plan?” Mao Weiping wasn’t aware that Feng Zeyu had already heard about it.
It had been many years since the incident and the high school girl back then had already graduated college and gotten married. Feng Zeyu had no intention of giving her a hard time.
“The culprits were the teenagers and their families. The girl… was blackmailed. Just let it go.”
“We can’t just let it go. Had she not testified against you, you wouldn’t have gone to jail for so many years for something that you did not do. You were the one who always said those who had made mistakes must be punished.” Comparing to him, Mao Weiping was very strict about those who had committed a crime.
“I was referred to our enemies,” said Feng Zeyu as he put down the contract and looked at Mao Weiping.
“Then they are now your enemies and mine as well.” If it wasn’t for them, Feng Zeyu wouldn’t be where he was right now.
“That’s why I had been collecting criminal evidences against them and their fathers all this time. I have plenty in my hand already and should almost be ready. I only want to turn to them for revenge. As for the girl….” Feng Zeyu shook his head. Emotionally, he could not forgive the girl for what she had done; rationally, nevertheless, he understand why she did what she did.
Speaking of woman, that reminded Feng Zeyu of Shu Yan. Comparing the two of them, one of them turn against him after he had saved her, whereas the other one, even though she was the one who saved Duoduo first, always remained appreciative of him for what he had done. Not only did she cook for him every night during those days, she further invited him to her housewarming today.
He never expected appreciation when he helped others but it was most certainly heartwarming when it was reciprocated.
In addition, Shu Yan’s kindness was also touching. Not everyone would notice human trafficker and alert the police after that. Definitely not standing up when the moment called for it.
“Hey, I am talking to you. Are you listening to me?” Mao Weiping knocked on the desk and gave Feng Zeyu a dubious look. “Eh? Lao Feng. Something is going on with you lately. Spill. Is there something going on?” said Mao Weiping as his wiggled his brows and gave him a very suggestive look.
“You are making stuff up.”
“What, what, what? I haven’t even said anything and you are already defensive. Is it true? Who is she?” Mao Weiping was genuinely concerned about him. He was married before his incident and had a son. When he returned home after his injury, his wife stayed and took care of him. He had a happy family. Feng Zeyu, on the other hand, went to prison over what had happened and then smeared by his stepmother. He was still single at 35.
Feng Zeyu frowned. “Really, nothing is going on. You know my reputation. Stop talking nonsense.”
“What about your reputation? You are too stuck in your ways. We are in the modern world now. So what if you have been to prison? You didn’t even commit any crime and you are about to clear your own name. Besides, you keep emphasizing the fact that you have been to prison. Why don’t you talk about your achievement in the army and how many people you have saved?” Mao Weiping stood up emotionally.
“That’s enough.” Feng Zeyu gave Mao Weiping a look and turned his attention back to the document in front of him. “Back to work already.”
On the other end, Shu Yan and Lin Hui finally finished bringing the table and kitchenware back. The two of them collapsed on the ground, exhausted.
“I need to take care of something at home. I am going to take off now.” Lin Hui bid her farewell after a small break.
“Okay. Thank you so much for today. I’ll come looking for you on the morning of the 25th.” After seeing Lin Hui off, Shu Yan planned to turn in after putting away the dried goods that were given to her by Hu Ruixue. Just when she was about to close her door, she saw Sister Zhang walking out of the elevator.
