Kapitel 242: The True Young Mistress Kang
Qiao Lan had never been the type to speak much with Feng Zhengyi. The woman was scary. Even scarier than Mo Ruyi and that was saying something.
So faced with Feng Zhengyi's command, Qiao Lan froze for a second.
Seeing this, Feng Zhengyi frowned.
The old woman also did not quite like Qiao Lan but due to the woman's highly valued marriage to Kang Zhi, they had become family and because of this, Feng Zhengyi had learned to tolerate her.
"Speak!" Feng Zhengyi said with force.
As soon as Feng Zhengyi had uttered those words, Qiao Lan had jumped.
Feeling sorry for Qiao Lan's situation, Kang Nianxi moved in between Qiao Lan and his grandmother and said,
"We don't know much about her, she's just a normal girl..."
Hearing this, Feng Zhengyi frowned. "Just a normal girl? Do you truly think a normal girl would be able to catch Jun's attentions? Jun isn't you. He isn't satisfied with normalcy."
Looking at his grandmother, Kang Nianxi felt his heart clench. Favoritism ran amok in the Kang family and the one who was always the most blatant about it was his grandmother.
In her own way, Feng Zhengyi loved Kang Jun more. But whether or not it was the right way... he answers differed from person to person.
"Are you calling me a liar? I told you all that I and Lan know." Kang Nianxi specified, trying his best to keep himself calm.
Though this did not satisfy Feng Zhengyi. She was about to leave and go find Elder Kang but then, she suddenly heard Rong Yue Wan's voice.
"Actually... I think I know a couple more things." Rong Yue Wan said nervously.
Hearing this, the old woman commanded Rong Yue Wan to speak. Hearing this command, Rong Yue Wan took a deep breath and then said,
"Lu AnLing is 26 years old. At 15 years old she was adopted into the Lu family. She was sent to a recovery institution 7 years ago and the 2 years after that she went to study abroad. She only recently came back to T City and got a job as a lounge singer and then as a lowly assistant at Halo Stars."
"Institution you said?" Feng Zhengyi asked curiously.
Rong Yue Wan nodded to this, " Yes, apparently her father died when she was younger and she was bullied a lot when growing up. Apparently, she developed depression and suicidal tendencies because of this..."
"An adoptee with suicidal tendencies? This woman is nothing. What is Kang Jun thinking?" Feng Zhengyi said as she shook her head in disappointment.
Hearing this, Rong Yue Wan frowned and nodded, "She must have done something to him... Women like that only know how to seduce, but Kang Jun is different, I wouldn't have expected him to fall for such a thing..."
As Rong Yue Wan spoke, Feng Zhengyi looked through the crowd and laid eyes on Elder Kang who smiled happily by Elder Tang's side. Suddenly, a thought emerged in Feng Zhengyi's mind.
'Lu... it couldn't be?'
Meanwhile, Qiao Lan and Kang Nianxi watched from the sidelines as the two women communicated and they couldn't believe their eyes.
They spoke so calmly and factually.
Qiao Lan could not believe the information that Rong Yue Wan held, unable to contain herself, Qiao Lan scoffed and said, "Yue Wan... why didn't you tell me about this?"
Rong Yue Wan shrugged, "The information wasn't pertinent to either of us."
This wasn't a lie but that wasn't why Rong Yue Wan didn't share the information.
Deep down, Rong Yue Wan did not believe that Qiao Lan would help her get Kang Jun. Qiao Lan felt threatened by every woman who got close to being important to the Kang's and if Rong Yue Wan was to marry Kang Jun, Rong Yue Wan knew that she would be the true young mistress Kang.
'Young Mistress Kang...' that title sounded nice to Rong Yue Wan's mind.
"How do you know all of this for sure?" Feng Zhengyi asked as she sharpened her gaze.
Feeling coldness pierce her body, Rong Yue Wan gulped and said, "M-my uncle. I borrowed his computer so I had access to some of his files."
Feng Zhengyi laughed, "Good job. It's great to see at least one person within the younger generation that has actually tact and brains."
Hearing such praise, Rong Yue Wan smiled elegantly. She suddenly saw an opening to becoming Kang Jun's future wife.
***
Kang Jun and Lu AnLing stood on the stage for a while as a medley of applause filled the room. When it was done, not letting go of Lu AnLing's hand, Kang Jun gave a small speech and then, when it was all done he gave the girl's hand a squeeze.
It was strange but after their marriage had been revealed to the eyes of the public, which filled the room, Lu AnLing felt both elated and scared.
This was a new chapter in her life; one which would probably include a lot of hardship but when she looked to her side and saw Kang Jun who just stood tall, looking straight ahead into the future without fear, Lu AnLing's fears subsided a bit.
Everything would be fine. They would work hard to make sure that was so.
Looking down into the eyes of her mother-in-law and father-in-law, Lu AnLing felt her heart skip a beat.
Kang Mu looked confused and furious while Mo Ruyi was still and calm. She could not read the woman at all. But suddenly, she saw Kang Mu turn and make his way to Elder Kang.
Meanwhile, Kang Jun and Lu AnLing walked down the stairs. They passed right by Kang Jun's mother who didn't even make an effort to look at her son and daughters-in-law.
Lu AnLing found this strange but it was just Mo Ruyi's way. Because of what had happened that night, without anyone having to tell her, she knew that there would be a family meeting. That was what she reserved her words for.
Walking over to Elder Kang, Lu AnLing and Kang Jun held hands. Lu AnLing could feel her heart beat in the palm of her hands and Kang Jun felt it too. He suddenly stopped and then he looked deeply into her eyes.
Without needing to ask her the question, Lu AnLing took a deep breath and said,
"I'm just a bit nervous..."
Hearing this, Kang Jun nodded.
His heart was racing too. Just like hers. After all, he was only human and this was something he had never dreamed of doing. He had never expected to love so much that he would do such impulsive things...
Kang Jun: "So am I... but everything will be fine, as long as I'm by your side and you're by mine."
Hearing his loving words, Lu AnLing wanted to bury herself in the man's embrace but feeling dozens of eyes plastered on her figure, Lu AnLing knew that it wasn't the place or time for it.
Feeling as if she had calmed down, Lu AnLing pulled onto Kang Jun's hand and pulled him towards the Tang's table.
As she did this, discussions bloomed between many groups in the crowd.
"No way! How did she manage to get Kang Jun? Did she blackmail him? Bribe him!?" A girl almost screamed.
A man frowned at those words. "Don't be foolish! Who could bribe or blackmail Kang Jun? They would be six feet under by now. I for one think that the man loves her. So she must be good in bed!"
All these words ended up being heard by both Kang Jun and Lu AnLing but they didn't stop to comment, instead, they just kept walking.
When Lu AnLing and Kang Jun got to the Tang table, Lu AnLing saw many new faces, some that she recognized but the one she was the most shocked about was a person she had never expected to see there...
Lu AnLing cocked her head and said, "Sheng?"

caremel Being sick sucks, but I was glad I was still able to write a bit. For now, I'm still a bit sick but with the help of medication, tea and honey I'm slowly returning to my normal self.
It's funny because there was another essay I had to write which I completely forgot about so I'll have to go back to my high school ways and finish it in less than 24 hours.
