Chapter 914: The Arrogant Feng Jue

Editor: Henyee Translations

In the past, Tong Rao had admired gentle, intelligent, and handsome men. However, after the incident with Zuo Yuanyi, she had developed a deep aversion to men who depended on women.

Frustration darkened Gu Jin’s eyes. How dare Tong Rao criticize her sister’s choice!

Even though she had reservations about Feng Jue, she wouldn’t oppose him as long as Gu Yang cared for him. If necessary, she would direct her ire at Feng Jue, not her sister.

Feng Jue smirked inwardly, holding Gu Yang’s hand with a look of innocence. “But Family Head Tong, my sister likes me to be dependent on her. Isn’t that right, Sister?”

Tong Rao’s expression tightened. Was this man actually growing arrogant because of his position?

She thought to herself that if Feng Jue lived in ancient times, he would be considered a mere concubine.

Gu Yang stepped in, her voice unwavering. “That’s right. I just like Ah Jue.”

She smiled at Tong Rao and added, “Madam Tong, Ah Jue is my boyfriend. I believe that’s enough to prove we’re well-suited for each other.”

“You don’t know how to judge people, so don’t give them advice.”

With that, Gu Yang took Feng Jue’s hand in one and Gu Jin’s hand in the other and turned to leave.

Tong Rao was momentarily taken aback. What did Gu Yang mean? Did she somehow know about Zuo Yuanyi and the others?

In the car, Feng Jue drove while Gu Yang and Gu Jin sat in the back seat.

Coincidentally, Xiao Yize called Gu Jin. “Jin, did Tong Rao give you any trouble?”

Gu Jin’s response was cold. “Yes.”

Gu Yang blinked, her eyes wide. Was she hearing things? Was her usually composed sister actually complaining to brother-in-law?

Even Feng Jue, driving, turned back with a look of surprise.

Xiao Yize paused for a moment before saying, “Should I make things difficult for her in return?”

Gu Jin replied simply, “OK.”

Tong Rao hadn’t made things difficult for Gu Jin directly, but she had certainly upset her sister, which was enough to provoke Gu Jin.

As soon as the call ended, Feng Jue spoke up, his tone teasing but laced with genuine curiosity. “Tsk, being in a relationship changes things, huh? By the way, Gu Jin, when are you going to introduce her to Mom and Dad?”

Back when Feng Jue and his sister were secretly dating, Gu Jin had kept it under wraps. Now that Gu Jin and Xiao Yize were together, Feng Jue and Gu Yang hadn’t mentioned it to their parents, waiting for Gu Jin to bring it up herself.

But knowing Gu Jin’s reserved nature, even if she was in a relationship, she wouldn’t broadcast it like Feng Jue did. She wasn’t inclined to report every detail to her family.

Gu Jin replied with a shrug, “We’ll talk about it when we have more free time.”

Xiao Yize was busy with his responsibilities in the Mutant department, so scheduling a family meeting was complicated.

Feng Jue clicked his tongue, feeling a pang of disappointment. In his opinion, Xiao Yize was rather inept. He hadn’t even managed to get Gu Jin to find time to introduce him to her parents. On the other hand, Feng Jue had already been planning for the future—three to four years ahead, once he reached the legal age, he intended to propose to Gu Yang.

Xiao Yize’s approach, on the other hand, was blunt and direct. Knowing Tong Rao’s preoccupation with reputation and profit, he had orchestrated a move that resulted in Lin Ran snatching away a crucial project from the Tong family, costing them over a hundred million yuan.

Lin Ran remarked with a smirk, “It’s quite something to sit back in a bar and watch the money roll in!”

Eight hours later, at the Tong Family Manor.

In her bedroom, Tong Rao applied some perfume.

Initially, she had dismissed Gu Yang’s choice of fragrance, considering it inferior compared to the internationally renowned brands she preferred. Despite Luo Xiangying’s praise—who was known for her close relationship with Fu Mingxiu, Gu Yang’s associate—Tong Rao had thought little of it.

However, after trying it herself, Tong Rao found herself regretting her previous dismissal.
