Chapter 195: Toys
The young man called Young Master Zheng was opening his mouth to catch the grapes handed over by the woman beside him. Hearing this, he frowned and pushed the woman away with one hand: “Dead? How did she die? Wasn’t she fine just a few days ago?”
Another young woman called Miss Sun was touching up her makeup in front of the mirror. Hearing this, she snapped the small mirror shut and looked at the man with a teasing expression: “She wasn’t played to death by you guys, was she? Didn’t I tell you before to take it easy?”
A trace of embarrassment flashed across the man’s face. He said, “We, we didn’t mean to! It’s all Dengzi’s fault for saying he wanted some excitement! While playing with her, he turned on the light. She saw Dengzi’s face, and then she, she ran out…”
The man’s gaze drifted: “When we chased after her, she was already gone. Later, when we inquired… we heard her neighbor say she was dead.”
“In the middle of the night, she don’t know why ran to the big bridge and jumped down and drowned.”
“Young Master Zheng, Miss Sun, what are we going to do now? If, if the police trace it back to us, we’re done for this lifetime! It was you who told us to play with her however we wanted! Now, now that someone’s dead…”
“Enough!” Zheng Zi’ang tsked, pulled the woman at his side into his arms, crossed his legs casually, and spoke indifferently: “Look at you panicking. She went to jump into the river in the middle of the night. The police have no evidence proving her death is related to you. What are you afraid of?”
“It’s just a pity. We finally found such a fun toy, and you guys ruined it.” Sun Mengman pouted unhappily: “You have to compensate me with one.”
She loved most to see those naive young girls who didn’t know the heights of heaven and earth mistakenly think they had met the white prince from fairy tales, then fall and be defiled.
This was one of the few pleasures in her bland life.
Not to mention, Sheng Hanxiang was still the ‘exclusive’ toy she had ‘customized’ from high school. She still wanted to see what expression she would make when she found out the person she was dating wasn’t Feng Zining!
Now, it was all ruined by this man! How hateful!
“What do you think Fourth Young Master Feng would do to you if he knew you were impersonating him to deceive an innocent girl?” Sun Mengman looked at the man curiously, as if she really intended to expose them in front of Feng Zining.
The man’s face turned pale, cold sweat dripped from his forehead, and he knelt before her with a thud, his pupils dilating in fear: “Miss Sun, you can’t, you can’t do that. Clearly, it was you who said at the beginning, telling us to…”
“What did I say?” Sun Mengman looked innocent: “I just gave you a suggestion at the time~ The one who actually carried it out wasn’t me.”
The man was speechless, only casting helpless pleading glances toward Zheng Zi’ang.
Only then did Zheng Zi’ang speak slowly: “Alright! Stop scaring him. If you let Feng Zining know about this, neither of us will have it good!”
He warned in a low voice: “Don’t forget, you were the one who proposed this game at the beginning.”
He participated in this game purely because he couldn’t stand Feng Zining and wanted to disgust him and make trouble for him.
Sun Mengman pouted and spoke in a coquettish tone, but her words carried thick malice: “Who let those lowly poor girls always want to defile my male god? I’ll teach them a lesson, so they can see clearly what kind of man they deserve.”
“Who would have thought their mentality would be so fragile~”
Zheng Zi’ang snorted with laughter.
Sun Mengman’s mobile phone vibrated. She looked down, her eyes flickering slightly. She stood up, carrying her bag, swaying her hips as she walked out: “You guys continue. I have something to do, leaving first~ Let’s gather next time.”
The man kept his head down, a vicious glint flashing in his eyes.
After Sun Mengman left, he looked up at Zheng Zi’ang: “Young Master Zheng, is it really okay to just let this matter go? Fourth Young Master Feng won’t trace it back to me, right?”
“Don’t worry. Fourth Young Master Feng has a million things to deal with every day. How would he notice us little people?” Zheng Zi’ang said self-mockingly: “Not to mention, he probably doesn’t even remember who Sheng Hanxiang is. How would he trace it to you because of her?”
Hearing this, the man let out a heavy sigh of relief, a smile rising on his face as he flattered: “How could that be? Young Master Zheng is a high and mighty figure to us. We don’t acknowledge that Fourth Young Master Feng at all.”
Zheng Zi’ang snorted with laughter and gestured for him to come forward and pour him a drink. One life was thus casually erased by them.
On the other side.
After leaving the club, Sun Mengman dialed a phone number. Without waiting for the other side to speak, she demanded: “Is the news you sent me just now true? A child who looks very much like Feng Zining appeared at Feng Group?”
In the pantry of Feng Group, a thin man wearing a black suit carefully glanced at Nan Yuanman who was wandering around outside with the assistant, then spoke in a lowered voice: “Yes, Miss Sun. She looks very much like Fourth Young Master. They all say…”
He hesitated, and only when Sun Mengman grew impatient did he say in a low voice: “She might be… Fourth Young Master’s illegitimate daughter.”
After all, Feng Zining was almost twenty-four now. There hadn’t been a single woman by his side these years, and suddenly such a young child who resembled him appeared. It was hard not to let people’s imaginations run wild.
Sun Mengman bit her lip, a cold glint flashing in her eyes: “I got it. I’ll cover your mother’s medical expenses for the next phase. Keep watching her for me. I want to see which bitch did this!”
A look of joy appeared on the man’s face: “Thank you, Miss Sun. I’ll keep watching for you.”
After hanging up, the man made a cup of coffee and left the pantry as if nothing had happened, unable to resist giving one more glance at Nan Yuanman who was directing the assistant to move the potted plants.
Nan Yuanman sensed his gaze and sharply turned around, meeting his eyes directly. The man froze, instinctively showing her a kind smile.
Nan Yuanman stared at him for a good while until the man looked somewhat uneasy on his face and lowered his head to check if there was anything improper about himself. Only then did she look away.
The man’s fingers tightened slightly on the coffee cup as he quickly left with his head down.
The assistant noticed Nan Yuanman’s action and asked puzzledly: “Little miss, what’s wrong?”
“Nothing. It’s just been a long time since I’ve seen such an unlucky person. I was curious and looked a few more times. Uncle Li, let’s continue.” Nan Yuanman shook her little head and continued directing the assistant to move the potted plants.
Assistant Li couldn’t help but give the man a sympathetic glance upon hearing this, then continued to obediently do the heavy lifting.
After hanging up, the more Sun Mengman thought about it, the more she couldn’t swallow this anger. No, she had to go ask Feng Zining personally!
By the time she headed to Feng Group, Feng Zining had already obtained Sheng Hanxiang’s information from childhood to now.
The information detailed her life trajectory, including her clothing and food preferences, as well as her personality traits.
Feng Zining and Feng Jingcheng divided the review. Feng Jingcheng focused on the high school section. He was more sensitive to gossip than Feng Zining and might spot some information he missed.
Sun Mengman and Zheng Zi’ang never imagined that Sheng Hanxiang would have a chance to meet Feng Zining after her death, so they acted without any cover-up.
Feng Jingcheng easily spotted the anomaly: “Sun Mengman is actually Sheng Hanxiang’s friend?”
“This woman with the face of a Buddha and the heart of an evil ghost actually took the initiative to befriend an ordinary person? Has the sun risen from the west?”
“Right!” Feng Jingcheng seemed to think of something and suddenly looked up at Feng Zining: “Bro, I remember this Sun Mengman has always liked you and wanted to marry into your family, right?”
