We Are Meant To Be

Chapter 271 Fight For This Opportunity

Wenya Feng asked, "Why isn't my father here? Is he talking with my elderly brother and grandpa now?"

Xiuhua Du answered in a gentle voice, "You grandpa and brother are discussing things, while your father is making a phone call outside. I don't know what happened. It had been a while since he went out. Originally, Leiting Feng planned to talk with Zhangdong Feng alone. He wanted to drop some hints to him. If he noticed them and showed interest, then they could have further discussion. However, if he ignored them, he would stop and pretend nothing had happened.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

He was his grandson. He could choose whether to tell him directly or give him some hints. Anyway, blood was thicker than water. Everything was within his control.

"Well, I'll go find my father." In fact, Zhenxi Feng had been at a loss what to do. Now he finally found something. He immediately went outside. He really wanted to leave here, for the atmosphere was thick with tension. It almost made him breathless.

No one answered him. Then Zhenxi stood up and left. He knew where Tianyue Feng was. Just know when his phone rang, he quickly went outside.

Wenya nodded and cast an eye on Jing Lu. She seemed to be quite indifferent. After all, her relationship with Tianyue existed in name only. Besides Xi Lin, Tianyue had many lovers. The majority of them only slept with him once. But there were a few clever women who made quite a bit of money from him.

But for people of the Feng's family, as long as they were on the right track, other things were not that important for them. Qing had made up her mind early. If James Feng's and her position were not threatened, she wouldn't care about what others did.

And she didn't mind if someone went too far. It's a good thing for her. After all, if you wanted someone to die, the best way was to make him crazy first.

Considering this, Jing hoped that her enemies could become as crazy as possible. And it would be better if they could make some mistakes.

She didn't want her enemies to live well. And she would be happy if they got into trouble.

"Mom. I'll go and find him too." Though Wenya wasn't that close with her compared with James, she was her daughter. She knew Tianyue was leading a dissolute life, so as her daughter, she wanted to take up the cudgels for her mother.

Now Tianyue went out for so long due to a call. Obviously, the call wasn't about business. Probably a woman was pestering him. So she decided to question him to seek justice for her mother.

But Jing wasn't in the mood. She replied coldly, "Your father is a grown-up. He is just making a phone call at home. Nothing will happen. It's none of your business. Don't worry too much. He knows what to do and what not to do. Am I right, mom?"

Jing stared at Xiuhua and asked ironically.

She was a poor woman. Because there's no love in their marriage, her relation with other family members also had problems. So before people got married, they must make sure that they really loved him or her. Otherwise, the relationship wouldn't last long.

Once a couple didn't remain happily in love, the warmth and harmony of the family would fade. Things would turn nasty.

Xiuhua said lightly, "Absolutely. You are a couple. You know each other very well. Now you are not only a mother but also a grandma. My words won't help. Just remember to get along well with each other." She was suggesting that she wouldn't interfere in her problems with her husband. After all, they were not a young couple who needed families' help to adapt to their new life. What's more, nowadays, young couples were strong-minded. Other people's words and advice wouldn't help.

Hearing her words, Jing gave a cold smile inwardly. What a tricky old woman! Of course, she was pretty clear about what her son had done. But when she played the fool, Jing couldn't accuse her. After all, though she was her daughter-in-law, she didn't need to take care of her.

Luckily, she didn't care about Tianyue's dissolute life now. In her life, she needed to strike a balance so that she could live her life well. Now she had pinned her hope on her children, especially James. She would feel happy and satisfied if he could live his life well.

"Right. Mom. We are lucky as long as you are healthy. Don't let anything bother you." Jing kept calm. She looked very sincere as if she had been a real dutiful daughter.

Xiuhua didn't take her remarks serious. If she did, then she was a real fool. She had been her daughter-in-law for many years. When they appeared in public, they would pretend to be very close. But when no one was around, they would sneer at each other. Sometimes, they also did that in front of other people. But they would say less awful things.

Wenya stood on Jing's side. "Mom has always been considerate to grandma. Everyone can judge it from her words. Oh, right. Mom asked the cook to make sour fish. And she even let him remove the fish bones for you."

This dish was Xiuhua's favourite. But because of her health condition, she couldn't eat sugar. So she wasn't allowed to have the dish. Besides, she hated the bones.

Of course, everyone liked fish but hated fish bones. But only Jing could have someone remove the fish bones. Then only the eatable part was left, while the bones were abandoned.

Though Xiuhua knew that all Jing needed to do was opening her mouth and saying a word to the cook, she did that out of concern. If Jing didn't care about her at all, she wouldn't do that.

So Xiuhua decided to be kind to her in front of these kids. She said calmly, "Thank you. You are very nice."

Jing found it ironic when hearing the word "nice". But who cared? Everyone had secrets. She just needed to take her words literally.

So Jing regarded the words as compliments and said happily, "It's my duty. Sometimes I feel guilty for I don't have time to accompany you. So this time I want to please you.”

The words showed her decency. Others could find nothing to cavil about.
