Chapter 79 Prayer
Chu Feng watched as the ambulance drove away with its wailing siren. Without a word or any obvious movement, he scrolled to Li Ziyang’s phone number and quickly connected the line.
“Mr. Chu, I’m still in a meeting. If there’s anything just let me know.”
Li Ziyang’s voice was polite and respectful; he didn’t dare to offend a respected figure like Chu Feng.
Chu Feng didn’t beat around the bush and went straight to the point. “There’s a person who calls himself the Third Master of the Li Family who is a third class manager of Li Corporation’s. His name is Li Fei. Is he related to the Li Family?”
“Yes, he is just a good-for-nothing who’s not from the direct line of descent of the family. There are many like him in the Li Family though.” Li Ziyang thought about it for a while and realized something. He was a little worried when he asked, “Mr. Chu, did this guy offend you?”
“Offend me? He wouldn’t dare,” Chu Feng said lightly. “This Third Master of yours, all he did was to help you send your betrothal gift to my woman’s house and try to recruit me as his lackey. Then, he demanded for my daughter to become his domestic slave. That’s all.”
Thump! Li Ziyang—who was on the other end of the line—was so shocked that he fell off his leather office chair and nearly kneeled on the ground.
He was so frightened that his heart was about to erupt. Close to tears, he begged, “Mr. Chu, I apologize sincerely. Don’t worry, I will attend to this right away. I will get rid of this trash right away. Please—”
Chu Feng wasn’t in the mood to listen anymore. He hung up the phone and strode out.
He believed that Li Ziyang would definitely act satisfactorily and deal with the matter—unless he wanted the Li Family to be annihilated!
“Oh, may the Buddha bless us. May the Buddha bless us—” After the ambulance took Li Fei away for emergency treatment, Li Fenglan knelt in front of a statue of Buddha with her palms joined. Frightened and worried, she prayed very hard as she kowtowed. “Please, let him stay alive. We can’t deal with the shock if anything should happen to him.”
Although Li Fenglan was usually rude and unreasonable, at the end of the day, she was only an ordinary housewife. It was natural that she couldn’t handle this and didn’t know what to do.
Li Fei was thrown downstairs from a higher floor by Chu Feng at their premises; if Li Fei really died, they wouldn’t be completely cleared of the responsibility as well. The Li Family was vindictive and wouldn’t hesitate to throw them into jail under the charge of accessory to murder.
Yun Jiaming’s grew even more agitated upon hearing Li Fenglan’s non-stop praying. He frowned and exclaimed, “Can you please be quiet? If praying to the Buddha is useful, then why would we still need the police? I have already called my brother. He used his connections to send Li Fei to a military hospital for treatment. He won’t die for the time being.”
Yun Jiaming was a corporation’s high-ranking officer. Although both his legs were crippled, he could stay calm in the face of danger. At crucial times, he would exhibit the courage of being the head of the family.
“Jiahu is back from the capital? That’s great, that’s great!”
Li Fenglan’s eyes momentarily brightened. She sighed with relief, as if everything happened a lifetime ago.
The third son of the Yun Family, Yun Jiahu, was a military officer on the rank of a Lieutenant Colonel. The officers that came from the capital mostly had power and important identities. As long as he was there, the hospital would definitely help them to treat Li Fei.
At the same time, Yun Jiahu’s personality was straightforward and loyal; he had always helped their family. As long as Yun Jiahu was there, he could even help them resist the Li Family’s revenge.
“It’s all Chu Feng’s fault for dragging us into this. That as*hole, he actually dared to kill someone, in our house to boot!” When Li Fenglan talked about Chu Feng, she felt a fire in her. She gritted her teeth as she said, “If he wants to die, don’t drag us with him. What the h*ll! For now, our relationship with the Li Family is considered gone. In the very least, our daughter’s marriage alliance with them is over.”
Li Fenglan’s sweet aristocratic dream had been shattered. She was beyond furious; she couldn’t wish for more to have Chu Feng, that scoundrel, sliced up into pieces.
Yun Jiaming shook his head. “If it’s over, let it be. You’ve seen what Li Fei was like. To marry our daughter into the Li Family will cause her a lot of grief.”
