Chapter 102: Dare To Bully His Daughter, And You’ll Pay The Price!
Meng Xi’s face stiffened. She never expected Nan Yuanman to suddenly look up at her while playing, with the gloom in her eyes not even having time to hide.
She suppressed the panic in her heart, forcing a stiff smile at the corners of her mouth. Nan Yuanman’s little brows furrowed, her steamed bun face showing a bit of bewilderment.
She was very sure that the strange incense smell she smelled just now wasn’t an illusion, but now she couldn’t smell it anymore.
What’s going on??
Feng Langqing waited a long time without hearing the little dumpling’s laughter, and only when he lifted his head did he see Nan Yuanman staring behind him.
He turned his head in confusion and saw Meng Xi still standing there, not having left.
Feng Langqing tsked, a hint of impatience flashing in his eyes: “Why haven’t you left yet? Do you have something else?”
Meng Xi feared this brat would report to superior, so she quickly spoke up: “Yes, I wanted to ask, for next week’s baby variety show, will Actor Feng be going?”
Feng Langqing’s face suddenly darkened. Holding the little milk dumpling in one arm, he stared coldly and scrutinizingly at Meng Xi, like a leopard that had just woken up and was eyeing its prey: “How do you know I received the invitation for the baby variety show?”
His phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, his voice low and dangerous: “Are you investigating me?”
Meng Xi had debuted not long ago, and with the Fox Great Immortal’s blessing, she was arrogant. Plus, during the time Feng Langqing was on the film crew taking photos, he was very amiable to people, not at all acting like a big star or throwing tantrums.
Now facing Feng Langqing whose aura had suddenly turned cold and sharp, Meng Xi panicked inwardly, thinking it was bad—she had been too hasty and made Feng Langqing suspect her.
This news was naturally told to her by the Fox Great Immortal, but she couldn’t say that directly.
Meng Xi tried to calm herself down and weakly explained: “Actor Feng, don’t misunderstand. I didn’t investigate you. I-it’s just that I accidentally overheard Brother Luo talking to you about it earlier.”
“That baby variety show also sent me an invitation. I thought if you were going too, we could head out together, and it would give Yuanman a companion on the way.”
Feng Langqing didn’t respond, his gaze coldly fixed on her.
Meng Xi’s hands and feet turned cold, her heart panicked and afraid. Her eyes suddenly reddened, her voice soft and whiny with a hint of crying: “Actor Feng, I really didn’t investigate you. Please believe me.”
Feng Langqing scoffed disdainfully and withdrew his gaze, saying indifferently: “Fine, I’ll believe you for now. But no need for companionship—not just anyone is fit to be my sister’s friend.”
With that, he ignored Meng Xi, holding Nan Yuanman and striding away, muttering to her: “Yuanman, from now on when we make friends, we have to keep our eyes open. People like that who cry after just a few words when we haven’t even done anything can’t be close friends…”
Nan Yuanman nodded her little head while listening, her gaze occasionally falling on Meng Xi.
Meng Xi heard it, tears hanging at the corners of her eyes—neither falling nor not falling—her face flushed red, her cheeks burning as if she’d been slapped.
She bit her lip hatefully. Damn Feng Langqing, once she got him, she’d definitely make him kneel before her in repentance and humiliate him properly!
Feng Langqing and Nan Yuanman returned under the sun umbrella. Luo Wei poked a straw into a freshly arrived coconut and handed it to Nan Yuanman, smiling: “Here, Yuanman, drink coconut juice.”
He flatteringly handed a coconut to Feng Langqing: “You have one too, Brother Qing.”
Feng Langqing gave him a sidelong glance and lightly scoffed: “Even if you butter me up, I won’t go to that baby variety show, much less take Yuanman. Don’t get any ideas about me and my sister.”
“Hey! Brother Qing, what you’re saying—don’t I just want our Yuanman to go to more fun places to play!”
Luo Wei tsked, chuckling as he persuaded Feng Langqing: “Brother Qing, look, this drama will probably take another month or two to film. You can’t have Yuanman stuck with you on set the whole month or two, right?”
“You have to take Yuanman out to play sometimes. This baby variety show is a great spot, and she can make friends her age to play with! Plus it makes money—what a great deal!”
Luo Wei pointed at Nan Yuanman, who was earnestly sucking on the coconut juice, her cheeks puffed out adorably: “And our little sister has such a great face—not going on TV would be such a waste!”
Feng Langqing remained unmoved. Luo Wei gritted his teeth and pulled out his trump card: “Brother Qing, don’t you want people in the industry to know you have such a cute and soft little sister?”
Feng Langqing’s fingertips twitched slightly, and he lightly coughed: “Whether they know or not is another matter. I need to ask Yuanman’s opinion first.”
“Yuanman, do you want to go on TV?”
Nan Yuanman’s round eyes blinked: “Go on TV? Like Third Brother filming?”
Feng Langqing nodded: “Yes, but not filming a drama—it’s filming a variety show.”
Nan Yuanman’s eyes lit up, and she immediately raised her hand: “Yes!”
No child could resist the temptation of going on TV!
Plus, once on TV, she could advertise Grandpa’s coffin shop!
As soon as she agreed, Feng Langqing immediately gave in without principles to Luo Wei: “Fine, I agree. Go reply to the baby variety show director and arrange a time to sign the contract.”
Luo Wei: “…” Hah, sister-con.
Meanwhile.
In Taicheng Hengdian, Jiang Chuyun also received the invitation from the baby variety show director. He looked at the contract handed over by his manager Sister Li: “Baby variety show…”
“Yes, this baby variety show is the first project after the guide’s transformation, focusing on pastoral life and relaxed enjoyment.” Sister Li nodded slightly, glancing at the little girl sitting not far from Jiang Chuyun, playing with a Barbie doll:
“Didn’t you want to take your niece out to relax? This baby variety show is perfect, and…”
Sister Li lowered her voice: “I heard Actor Feng will also bring his sister.”
A flash of excitement appeared on Jiang Chuyun’s face: “Really? Actor Feng is going too?”
“Wait, when did Actor Feng get a sister? Isn’t it said he only has a brother and younger brother?”
Feng Langqing was Jiang Chuyun’s idol. He entered the entertainment industry because of a movie Feng Langqing starred in right after debuting.
Because of that movie, he fell in love with the character Feng Langqing played, and also grew to like acting, gradually entering the entertainment industry and debuting.
But Feng Langqing was too busy—either filming on set or shooting ads and variety shows elsewhere—their schedules rarely overlapped.
In three years in the industry, he hadn’t met Feng Langqing offline more than five times.
Now with a chance to be on the same variety show as his idol, Jiang Chuyun was naturally tempted.
Sister Li shook her head lightly: “Not sure. Heard it’s a recently acknowledged sister, kept very low-key. Only got the news, no photos of his sister yet.”
Feng Langqing’s background in the industry had always been mysterious. Rumors said he was from the Shangjing Feng family, with strong capital power—anyone in the industry who provoked him basically disappeared without a trace now.
So few people would deliberately poke the bear.
Jiang Chuyun didn’t press, happily asking Jiang Xinxin: “Xin Xin, do you want to go on TV with Uncle?”
These three days with Jiang Chuyun had been the happiest time for Jiang Xinxin lately. Her eyes lit up at the question, and she nodded eagerly: “Yes!”
As long as she went on TV and Grandmother and Uncle saw how excellent she’d become, a big star, they’d like her again!
“Great!” Jiang Chuyun decided: “Then we’ll do this baby variety show together!”
Meanwhile, inside Wanhe Hospital.
After resting for three days and finally recovering, Feng Congqian went to Feng Yuli to see the child, only to hear such bad news from him.
Feng Congqian looked at him with cold, deep eyes: “You mean Old Three took Yuanman away?”
“Yes.” Feng Yuli smiled: “Father, you have to give Yuanman time to accept you.”
Feng Congqian was speechless: “…” Unfilial son!
Feng Congqian took a deep breath, extremely unhappy inside. His eyes darkened, a flash of ferocity in them, his tone icy: “Call Old Four and have him terminate the contract with the Jiang family.”
“The Feng family will never cooperate with the Jiang family again!”
Before, he was in living soul state—when the Jiang family bullied Nan Yuanman, he couldn’t protect her or get revenge for her.
Now that he was alive…
Then, if the Jiang family dared bully his daughter, they would pay the price!
