Chapter 577: Chapter 376: Only for Good Relations_2
Feng Chi slapped the table, "Am I that kind of person? A’qi, since you’ve said this, I’ll definitely give you face!"
As he spoke, he took out his cell phone.
"Here, I’m sending it now, and I’ve already talked to my brother about it."
Liang Shaoqi looked at the message Feng Chi sent to Feng Yi and said with satisfaction, "Thanks. Are you free this afternoon? I’ve put together a game, all folks we know, let’s hang out."
Feng Chi agreed, "Sure, I have a flight tonight but I can still play for a few hours."
They joked and laughed, the atmosphere was good.
Liang Shaoqi’s goal had been achieved, and he was very happy.
As for Feng Chi, being invited to play without spending money and being able to enjoy food and entertainment while expanding his social circle made him happy as well.
However, what others didn’t know was that when Feng Chi and Feng Yi, the two brothers, sent messages to each other, they used a lot of secret codes. What words to use under what circumstances, how to use punctuation, what emojis to include—all had specific meanings, but others couldn’t tell.
Until later that evening, Feng Chi got ready to catch his flight and he had a talk with Feng Yi.
"Brother, has Liang Shaoqi contacted you yet?"
"Not yet," Feng Yi said.
"That guy, I haven’t interacted with him much, but I have a certain understanding of him. He might not be up to any harm, but he’s definitely plotting something. If he invites you to a meal or something like that, be careful."
"I have a task for the next two days, I won’t be free."
"Another task? Is it far?"
"Not far, just in Yang City. There’s an event at the zoo."
"Geez, at the zoo? If I were free, I’d go watch."
"There’s a live stream. You can watch it directly on your phone when the time comes."
While the two brothers were chatting, elsewhere, Liang Shaoqi, intoxicated, returned to his place, which was where he lived alone, not with his parents and siblings.
When he got home, there was already someone in the house, sitting on the sofa waiting for him.
This person was in his thirties, looked about sixty to seventy percent similar to Liang Shaoqi but was more mature and stable—it was his own brother, Liang Shaozhen.
The two brothers, about a decade apart in age, didn’t usually hang out together, belonged to separate generations, with different social circles, but their relationship was good.
Liang Shaozhen was already well-known in the upper business circles. Ten years ago, when he was in his prime at the sports car club, Liang Shaoqi wasn’t even old enough to have a driver’s license.
Seeing Liang Shaoqi return, Liang Shaozhen handed him a cup of warm water and asked, "All set?"
Liang Shaoqi proudly replied, "Pretty much, though I haven’t added him as a friend yet. Hey, brother, I’ve got his contact info now, but you have to tell me, what kind of attitude should I take towards Feng Yi?"
Liang Shaozhen spoke gravely, "You can only make friends!"
Liang Shaoqi’s eyebrows rose.
As the youngest child, the family usually didn’t control him much, and any instructions given to him were never absolute.
The implication now was that he could only befriend Feng Yi, not become enemies.
The statement just now was practically an order.
"Is that from you, or Dad?" Liang Shaoqi asked.
"Grandfather’s wishes," replied Liang Shaozhen.
Liang Shaoqi was puzzled.
"It was never mentioned before. Now suddenly you tell me to befriend Feng Yi, and I’m totally unprepared. If I hadn’t been clever and found the opportunity through Feng Chi, I really wouldn’t have known how to get to know him."
Liang Shaozhen patted his shoulder, "Well done! Keep it up!"
Saying that, he took out an exquisite invitation.
The invitations for their father’s birthday banquet had begun to be sent out a month in advance and were pretty much finalized a week prior. The invitation he now took out was an additional one.
It was a VIP invitation, personally written by their father.
Liang Shaoqi was genuinely surprised.
"What’s Feng Yi’s background, after all? You’ve got to give me some insight. I have to know the specifics so I can decide how to deal with him."
He was indeed curious about Feng Yi, who had had little presence since childhood and seemed almost invisible in the Feng Family. Liang Shaoqi knew of Feng Yi only because of the incident where he was expelled from the family, but that was just a casual conversation topic at the time, and afterward, no one paid it much heed.
Later on, Feng Yi’s reputation began to grow, and his progress was rather enigmatic.
He knew that Feng Yi had inherited an estate from a relative, like that big villa by Cui Lake, and a bit of money... these were things that could be checked.
But Feng Yi’s maneuvers made it clear that there was more they didn’t know about.
Where did Feng Yi get so much money?
Among his peers, during casual conversations people would brag about who was doing well, how they started their businesses, what they’d done, how much money they’d made, or how much capital they could obtain from their wealthy families...
There was a vague idea for everyone.
Except for Feng Yi, who was like a mystery.
His biological parents, uncles, grandfather—all his blood relatives were in Yang City, which made them easy to check, but Feng Yi seemed to be on an alternative developmental path. Liang Shaoqi’s many attempts to find concrete information had failed.
Now that he was finally getting some direction from his own brother, he naturally wanted to understand more.
After a moment of contemplation, Liang Shaozhen nodded slightly. Instead of directly answering his younger brother’s question, he asked, "You’ve heard about Old Man Huang from Hao City last month, right?"
Liang Shaoqi’s brows furrowed slightly, not quite understanding.
Old Man Huang from Hao City passed away last month, and he had attended the funeral with his parents and older brother. He had heard quite a bit of gossip about the Huang Family, but what did that have to do with Feng Yi?
Liang Shaozhen, seeing his confusion, smiled and reminded him, "Remember what happened when Old Man Huang was critically ill?"
Liang Shaoqi said, "You mean when Old Man Huang was rushed to the hospital because of his ungrateful son?"
Liang Shaozhen said, "That day, they used a lot of rare medicines to save him, including an anti-aging drug that costs two million a dose. They used three doses in one go just to stabilize him."
