Chương 30: The Feng Household's Turmoil

Jiang Zhiming had been left behind with Chang Wei, and he looked at Feng Zhengzhi with amusement. "Please see to it that her belongings are packed. We will be taking her things with us."

Feng Zhengzhi clenched his teeth, fury seething beneath his forced smile. "Butler, get the maid to quickly pack everything that belongs to Feng Ruoxi and load it in the Jiang's car."

The butler hurried off to carry out the task, and Feng Zhengzhi turned to Jiang Zhiming. "I apologize for all this."

Jiang Zhiming waved a dismissive hand. "I thought I had told you that no one can change my grandson's mind, not even me."

Feng Guiri, unable to contain his annoyance, spoke up. "Well, when she gives you problems, don't come complaining, because we warned you that she was troublesome."

Jiang Zhiming's lips curved into a knowing smile. "I know Jiang Yukang can handle any type of trouble. Don't you think?"

Feng Guiri, though still annoyed, maintained his facade of politeness. "Yes, yes, he is a capable young man."

"I taught him well," Jiang Zhiming said, his voice tinged with pride. "A real man doesn't back down from his decision and knows how to face the consequences of his actions."

As soon as everything belonging to Feng Ruoxi was packed, Jiang Zhiming stood up, a satisfied expression on his face. "Well, I guess the two had been eager to be together. I suppose from today onwards, we are family."

Feng Zhengzhi forced a smile, though his eyes betrayed his true emotions. "Yes, we are indeed. I am glad we could finally fulfill the agreement between our families."

"So am I," Jiang Zhiming replied, and with that, the Jiangs took their leave.

The moment the door closed behind them, Feng Guiri's composure shattered. He let out a furious roar and smashed a vase on the ground, sending shards of porcelain scattering across the living room.

Feng Meiling and Feng Xiuying stood there, their faces etched with a mix of anger and disbelief. "This is all Feng Ruoxi's fault!" Feng Meiling cried, her voice shrill with resentment.

Feng Xiuying nodded, her expression equally venomous. "How dare she ruin our chance with Young Master Jiang!"

Feng Guiri turned to his daughters, his eyes blazing with fury. "This is unacceptable! We had everything planned, and that girl had to go and ruin it all!"

Zhang Lihua, who had been silent throughout the exchange, finally spoke up. "I told you she would be trouble. Now, we have to deal with the consequences."

Qiao Yingyao, who had also been quiet, couldn't help but feel a twinge of satisfaction. "Well, at least one of us saw this coming," she said, her tone dripping with smugness.

Feng Zhaoxuan, who had been observing the entire scene with a peculiar expression, finally broke his silence. "It seems Feng Ruoxi's decision has shaken the foundations of this family."

The others turned to him, their expressions a mix of anger and confusion. Feng Guiri narrowed his eyes. "And what exactly do you mean by that?"

Feng Zhaoxuan's lips curved into a small, satisfied smile. "I mean that this turn of events might just work in my favor."

Qiao Yingyao nodded, her own smile widening. "Yes, my dear husband. I believe this could be the opportunity we've been waiting for."

Feng Guiri and Feng Zhengzhi exchanged a puzzled glance, unable to comprehend the meaning behind Feng Zhaoxuan and Qiao Yingyao's cryptic words.

Meanwhile, in the middle of the chaos, Feng Ruoxi's name was being mentioned with increasing venom and resentment. The twins, fueled by their jealousy and disappointment, continued to hurl accusations and insults, their voices rising in volume and intensity.

Feng Zhengzhi, trying to maintain some semblance of control, attempted to calm the situation. "Now, now, let's not get ahead of ourselves. Feng Ruoxi is still part of this family, and we must respect her decision."

Feng Guiri scoffed, his expression twisted with disdain. "Respect her decision? She's ruined everything we worked for!"

Qiao Yingyao, sensing an opportunity to further stir the pot, chimed in. "Perhaps it's time we reconsidered Feng Ruoxi's position in this family. After all, she's clearly not interested in upholding our traditions and values."

Feng Zhaoxuan nodded in agreement, his eyes gleaming with a hidden agenda. "Indeed. Feng Ruoxi's actions have called into question her loyalty to the Feng name."

The tension in the room was palpable, as the various factions within the Feng household vied for dominance. Feng Guiri and his wife were consumed by their anger and disappointment, while Feng Zhaoxuan and Qiao Yingyao seemed to be plotting their own course of action.

Feng Meiling and Feng Xiuying, continued to cry and hurl insults at the empty space where Feng Ruoxi had been. "This is all her fault! She's ruined everything for us!" Feng Meiling wailed, her voice shrill with resentment.

Feng Xiuying nodded vehemently, tears streaming down her face. "Yes, how dare she take away our chance to marry Young Master Jiang! It should have been one of us, not her!"

Zhang Lihua tried to console the distraught twins, putting a comforting hand on their shoulders. "There, there, don't cry. You know, Jiang Yukang will surely grow tired of Feng Ruoxi soon enough. When that happens, one of you will have another chance to become his wife."

Feng Guiri scoffed, his expression twisted with disdain. "Chance? After what that girl has done, I doubt Jiang Yukang will ever look at either of you the same way again. She's ruined everything we worked for!"

Feng Zhengzhi let out a weary sigh, rubbing his temple. "I had hoped Feng Ruoxi would reject the arrangement so that either Meiling or Xiuying could marry Jiang Yukang. But since she is now officially betrothed to him, we have no choice but to accept the situation."

Qiao Yingyao, sensing an opportunity, chimed in. "But that doesn't mean we can't still find a way to control the situation to our advantage. Feng Ruoxi's decision may have shaken the foundation of this family, but with the right approach, we can turn it to our favor."

Feng Zhaoxuan nodded, a satisfied smile playing on his lips. "Exactly. I told you, this turn of events might just work in our favor. We must be patient and seize the opportunities as they arise."

Feng Guiri eyed his brother and sister-in-law with suspicion. "What are you two plotting? Don't tell me you're actually pleased that Feng Ruoxi has married into the Jiang family?"

Qiao Yingyao let out a soft chuckle. "Oh, dear brother, you underestimate us. This is merely the beginning of a new chapter for the Feng family. With Feng Ruoxi's position in the Jiang household, we may be able to gain access to even more lucrative business deals and expand our influence."

Feng Zhaoxuan nodded in agreement. "Precisely. We must learn to manipulate the situation to our benefit. Feng Ruoxi's decision, as costly as it may have been, has presented us with an opportunity we cannot afford to waste."

The Feng household was in a state of turmoil, with tensions running high and the various factions vying for control. The twins continued to sob, their dreams of marrying Jiang Yukang shattered, while the older generation plotted and schemed, determined to turn this unexpected turn of events to their advantage.
