Chapter 893: The Vicious Minds of Shen Bokang and His Wife

They were clearly hypocritical but presented a very sincere look. If they were really so sincere, then they should be willing to give her the position of the master of the Shen family.

Shen Bokang’s face changed and scolded her in a deep voice, saying, “Our Shen Family is not insignificant like the Feng Family. A family clan that needs a woman to be in charge is simply useless and incapable. A man has always been the master of the family. You are an unmarried woman. Why are you groundlessly trying to take part in it?”

He clearly meant that since she was a woman, what right did she have to compete for the position of the master of the family?

Feng Tianlan scoffed. She did not feel like dealing with them. She would return to the Shen family on her own because her parents left the Shen Family to her. She would not just let it be.

“Don’t listen to your uncle’s nonsense.” Yuan Fangfei glared at Shen Bokang and reached out to stop Feng Tianlan as she said, “You go back first. We will discuss this with the family’s elders when you return. We will need a few days for the handover. We cannot just give it over like that. If not, our Shen family would have no rules.”

They would placate her and trick her to return first. Once they married her off, she would have no say when it came to matters of the Shen family.

Shen Bokang wanted to refuse but thought of what Yuan Fangfei had said before. They had to coax her back first before taking the next steps. They had to first agree to any conditions.

Seeing how hypocritical they were, Feng Tianlan smiled coldly and said, “I will go back, but not now. You do not need to pretend like this. I feel nauseated looking at you.”

She wanted to find out the truth about her parents’ death and then immediately strike back at them with her return. She felt sickened simply looking at them now, let alone going back and having to guard against their attempts to harm her.

“Dai’er…” Yuan Fangfei wanted to catch up but was stopped by a few guards. She could only watch on helplessly as Feng Tianlan entered the Bailan Alliance. But she dared not act rashly.

Yuan Fangfei glared at Shen Bokang and said, “Can’t you just speak nicely to Dai’er?”

Shen Bokang grunted coldly and turned around to leave. He simply did not want Shen Qingdai to return to the Shen Family. Rather than jumping through hoops, it was better to just send someone to kill her and all their troubles would be solved.

Yuan Fangfei took a look at the Bailan Alliance’s tall and majestic manor entrance and could only sigh. They had to come a few more times so that it would show they were sincere. And as long as the news of Dai’er and Jiang Ying’s engagement spread for everyone to hear she would have to return to the Shen Family even if she did not want to at that time.

Ever since Feng Tianlan’s ident.i.ty was exposed on the projector wall that day, Lin’an City was filled with rumors. They were about how Jiang Ying had hired a matchmaker to go to Shen Manor to propose a ghost marriage with Shen Qingdai before knowing that she had been reborn.

Such a devoted man not only touched the people but also moved the Heavens. It was why the state preceptor revealed that Shen Qingdai had borrowed a body to be reborn into after the Shen Family agreed to the marriage.

Jiang Ying’s devoted love moved the world while the rumor that it resurrected Shen Qingdai instantly spread throughout Lin’an City like rapid new growth after the rain. It even spread through the entire Dongshu Nation, touching its people.

Yuan Fangfei still came to the Bailan Alliance’s entrance every day, asking Shen Qingdai to return to the house. She even cried until she fainted several times and was carried back before giving up.

An obsessed Jiang Ying and Yuan Fangfei, who loved her dearly like a mother, caused Feng Tianlan, who had not shown her face, to be thrown into another storm of rumors.

It was said that after Feng Tianlan claimed her connections with the Bailan Alliance’s Demon King, she became ungrateful, debauched, greedy, and vain. She abandoned the fiancé who grew up with her and did not acknowledge the uncle and aunt who raised her.

Although many people felt that she must have her own difficulties and reasons for not going back to the Shen Family, the ones who said this were weak in the face of those pointing their fingers in accusation.
