Chapter 243: Chapter 186 He Doesn’t Know_2
Read faces?
Old Man Feng remembered that his younger brother didn’t have this face shape!
Therefore, he didn’t believe a single word Feng Yi said about "reading faces"!
Old Man Feng contained his anger. He wanted to see what else this young man could come up with!
"What are your plans for the next step?"
Also to let Feng Yi speak, and to make a comparison, Old Man Feng mentioned the achievements made by several outstanding younger generations in the Feng family. For instance, who had secured what project, and how much profit someone’s company had made.
Feng Yi looked indifferent, as if he didn’t care, "I don’t have any grand ambitions. If I run out of money, I’ll just catch snakes to earn a living."
Old Man Feng choked.
He was used to the younger generation rattling on when asked such questions, but in front of him, this guy simply said, "I don’t have any grand ambitions"!
If it weren’t for the secrets this young man held in his hands, Old Man Feng would have really loved to throw him out!
No grand ambitions?
Old Man Feng didn’t believe it!
That was a blatant brush off!
The people from that hidden branch definitely had greater ambitions!
Whether it was his younger brother or his sister, the wealth they held was beyond his estimation!
Yet up to now, he had no idea how they had made their fortune!
This young man really wasn’t willing to say anything!
Feng Yi, as if he hadn’t sensed the intense emotional changes in the elder, took a sip of tea to moisten his throat. Then, his brow furrowed slightly as if he’d remembered something urgent.
He glanced at the wall clock, "It’s getting late. I won’t disturb your rest."
Old Man Feng also checked the time. It was shorter than he had estimated. He wondered if Feng Yi was in such a hurry to leave because he had something important to do, or perhaps someone to meet?
Feng Yi stood up, bidding farewell and preparing to leave.
In the Yang City Feng family, who would dare to leave without Old Man Feng’s word that it was over?
Seeing Feng Yi heading towards the door, a cold light flashed in Old Man Feng’s eyes, only to be hidden behind his lowered eyelids, as if brewing an unspoken threat.
"Young man, you need to know your limits! Being overconfident is arrogance! Having confidence is one thing, but whether you can succeed is another!"
Feng Yi paused in his steps but did not turn around.
"Hmm, I’ll remember that. By the way, I have some news for you."
His tone was relaxed, as if he was unaffected by the elder’s threatening aura.
"I’ve been promoted, now a formal member of the Union Preservation Bureau Expert Committee. You should know what would happen if a member of the Union Preservation Bureau’s Expert Committee suddenly goes missing or dies, right?"
After the period of abnormal weather, as the status of the Union Preservation Bureau rose, the Feng family had tried every means to curry favor with the Union Preservation Bureau.
However, over the past twenty or thirty years, everyone has come to know the disposition of those in the Union Preservation Bureau: stubborn and adamant, liable to flip the table over everyone’s heads if provoked!
A common expert might not cause much of a stir, but once someone reaches the level of a formal member of the Expert Committee, any incident would prompt the Union Preservation Bureau to conduct a thorough investigation!
This was the Union Preservation Bureau’s way of protecting their professionals.
An accident? Personal enmity?
They will only believe what they investigate themselves!
Considering this organization formed in special times, would anyone be willing to bear the consequences of provoking them?
Old Man Feng was silent.
If the Feng family was stable and thriving, they could afford the loss. But now, with fierce internal strife, and his age weakening his control over the big picture, he might not be able to withstand this turmoil!
And he had to prevent others from taking this opportunity to take a bite out of them.
Furthermore, Old Man Feng still hadn’t figured out how many cards Feng Yi held in his hands.
If it were someone else, he might not have cared, but since Feng Yi was related to that secret branch, he had to treat him cautiously!
He even suspected that Feng Yi had come today to provoke him into acting, to catch him in the act!
After Feng Yi left, Old Man Feng sat quietly on the sofa. Then, suddenly, he stood up, grabbed the teacup that Feng Yi had used from the coffee table, and smashed it on the ground!
Bang!
It shattered into pieces.
The secretary came in, saw the broken teacup on the floor. His expression remained unchanged, and he did not immediately order someone to clean it up but waited for Old Man Feng’s instructions.
He sighed inwardly. He had thought Old Man Feng would invite Feng Yi to stay for a meal, but now it seemed that was impossible, and their relationship wasn’t going to improve.
Old Man Feng closed his eyes to contemplate, analyzing every one of Feng Yi’s expressions from earlier in his mind.
"The person following Feng Yi, what do we know about him?" Old Man Feng asked.
The secretary reported what had happened outside, "He claims to be a gardener, but in my opinion, this person is deeply cunning, skilled with firearms, has a strong sense of crisis, and an astonishing reaction speed."
Old Man Feng was even more convinced that Feng Yi had inherited the wealth and resources of that secret branch.
Still, he didn’t believe that Feng Yi himself was that formidable; he had merely inherited the branch’s resources.
For this reason, he did not dare to move against Feng Yi rashly.
He couldn’t act recklessly before clarifying how much his sister had left for Feng Yi.
"Do we need to look into this ’Director He’ mentioned over the phone?" the secretary asked.
"No need. That’s someone from the Union Preservation Bureau Expert Committee." Old Man Feng looked out the window, "Did he leave?"
"Yes," the secretary replied.
"Have someone keep tabs on him, see where he goes after leaving," ordered Old Man Feng.
Old Man Feng recalled the sudden change in Feng Yi’s expression earlier and how he had checked the wall clock. That young fellow must have some important arrangement.
Elsewhere, after leaving the second-floor meeting room, Feng Yi took Ding and went downstairs to leave directly.
The biggest takeaway from today’s visit was confirming that Old Man Feng was unaware of the core secrets!
