274 Nonsense

“Yi is here. When did he return to the capital?”

When Feng Zhongliang saw PEI Yi, a smile appeared on his face. He was not like him to stand still.

PEI Yi was the Apple of old master PEI’s eye, and old master PEI used to be his superior. Even though PEI Yi was his junior in name, he still treated PEI Yi with respect and courtesy. He had never been impolite.

Jiang se was a little worried. PEI Yi nodded.

“I heard from Grandpa last night that you fell, so I booked a plane ticket to come back and take a look.”

Feng Zhongliang’s smile froze when he heard what he said.

If it was in the past, when PEI Yi still liked his granddaughter, Feng Nan, Feng Zhongliang would not be surprised at all if PEI Yi did such a thing.

However, it was no longer possible between Feng Nan and PEI Yi. His gaze landed on PEI Yi and Jiang SE’s intertwined hands. PEI Yi had already made up his mind. He recognized Jiang se. At the beginning of the year, PEI Yi had even brought her back to the PEI family to meet his parents. Clearly, he was very serious about her.

Since that was the case, Feng Zhongliang could not understand why he was so valued even though he had fallen.

He thought of the current Feng Nan and sighed silently. He forced himself to say,

“It’s just a small matter. I’ve alarmed the old leader.”

“How can you say it’s a small matter? Grandpa is very concerned. He knew I was coming over this morning and told me to tell you to rest more.”

PEI Yi held Jiang SE’s hand and smiled.

you and Grandpa have a life-and-death friendship. Grandpa asked me to tell you that as the years go by, he doesn’t have many old friends left. When you have time, you should come home to accompany him, play chess, and talk to him. He’s lonely too.

The young man’s face had a firm edge, and the arrogance between his brows had become a lot more restrained. The arrogance that had appeared on his face in the past had now been restrained a little, and his shoulders seemed to have widened. After not seeing him for a year, he had also grown a little taller, tall and handsome.

Feng Zhongliang was moved by his words. He lowered his head. Ever since Feng Nan and Zhao junhan had confirmed their relationship, he had had little contact with the PEI family. Old master PEI was using PEI Yi’s mouth to remind him not to throw away the friendship that they had shared through life and death because of some small matters between the younger generation.

“You’re right, old leader. I’ll definitely visit the PEI family when I’m free next time.”

Feng Zhongliang agreed and called PEI Yi and the other man into the house.

His hand that was holding the walking stick was very strong and trembling. He tried a few times but could not lift his leg.

However, he had a stubborn personality. Xiao Liu, who was taking care of him not far away, wanted to help him up, but he glared at him and turned back. He took two steps, and his face turned pale. It was such a cold day, but his forehead was already sweating.

Jiang se suddenly reached out to support him.

He frowned and struggled to free his hand from Jiang SE’s grip. However, he was surprised to find that the girl was holding on to him tightly. PEI Yi did not say a word in front of him. Feng Zhongliang could not scowl and tell Jiang se to let go of his hand.

“I’m old and useless.”

He chuckled and entered the house. The servants had already prepared tea and snacks.

The decorations in the Feng family’s house were based on traditional Chinese preferences. The furniture and sofa were all made of thick solid wood. Even if there were cushions on them, it was still uncomfortable to sit on.

When Jiang se walked over, she picked up a cushion from the sofa and placed it in Feng Zhongliang’s favorite seat. When he saw Jiang SE’s action, he was stunned and his face twitched.

There was a book by hou Xiling on the table, and a pair of reading glasses was placed next to it. It was obvious that Feng Zhongliang had been sitting there reading when the two of them came over.

Jiang se remembered that her grandfather did not like to read these things in the past. He liked to tend to his plants. When he had nothing to do, he would play chess, write calligraphy, and occasionally read newspapers and magazines. However, they were not novels. Instead, they mainly read about current affairs.

He sat down, and the servants served him some tea. PEI Yi glanced at Jiang se, then at Feng Zhongliang.

“I’m going to the washroom.”

It was not his first time at the Feng residence. After Feng Zhongliang nodded and PEI Yi left, the atmosphere became a little awkward.

Jiang se sat to Feng Zhongliang’s right and stared at him. She knew very well that PEI Yi was leaving to give her some space to talk.

Feng Zhongliang noticed that Jiang se was staring at him. At first, he remained calm and took two sips of tea without saying a word. After waiting for a while, PEI Yi still did not come out. Jiang se was still staring at him. He frowned.

He still remembered Jiang se. In fact, she left a deep impression on him. She had not changed much since they had met at the beginning of the year. She did not talk much either.

However, he was still puzzled by how Jiang se kept looking at him. He wondered if she knew that PEI Yi used to like his granddaughter and was getting jealous of her.

However, after being stared at by Jiang se for a while, Feng Zhongliang could not hold back. She did not stop looking at him as if she was searching for something. If it were not for her relationship with PEI Yi, he would have stood up and left long ago.

“What are you looking at?”

He put down the teacup. He thought that after he said that, the little girl would at least blush and restrain herself.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Jiang se stood up and strode toward him. She lowered her head and said, ”

“I heard that you fell and injured yourself. Where did you fall?”

Her eyes were filled with worry. Feng Zhongliang did not expect her to ask such a question. His expression softened a little. Although he did not understand why Jiang se was so concerned about his injury, he was not used to accepting kindness from strangers. Hence, he shook his head.

“Don’t worry, it’s no big deal, Zhenzhen.”

Before he could finish his sentence, Jiang se had already squatted down beside him and reached out to touch his ankles and knees. She had noticed that Feng Zhongliang was walking in a strange manner. He was shocked by Jiang SE’s action and instinctively tried to hide.

“What are you doing?”

“I’m just checking to see if my ankle is injured.”

She noticed the way he was walking, and Feng Zhongliang forced himself to say, ”

“No, I didn’t,”

She looked up and saw that the color of Feng Zhongliang’s eyebrows seemed to be a little off. The corners of his eyes were full of wrinkles, his face was thin, and his brow ridge was high. If one did not pay close attention, one would not notice that there was a bruise on his brow ridge. She stood up and reached out to touch it. Feng Zhongliang obviously did not expect her to do such a thing. He quickly reached out to block her hand. Jiang se pulled his hand.

“Let me see.”

In front of the Feng family’s servants, Feng Zhongliang could not care less about the fact that he was a guest from afar. He blocked it twice and felt that it was inappropriate to pull and tug with a junior like this. His face sank and he reprimanded, ”

“Nonsense, this is outrageous!”

He had been very powerful in the Feng family all his life. When he was young, he was the pillar of the family, the kind that kept his word.
