Chapter 94: The Plan to Make These Dogs Bite Each Other

“Tianlan, you can’t agree to this! If anything he said were credible, then pigs would fly!” Luo Yunzhu hurriedly said, afraid that Feng Tianlan would accept Feng Xiang’s words.

To her, Feng Xiang was on the losing end and should be begging Tianlan. But he’d spoken earlier as if he had the upper hand and was graciously giving benefits to Tianlan without the least bit of sincerity. She was afraid that Tianlan might be convinced by this sudden display of kindness.

“HAHA!” Feng Tianlan laughed coldly then looked up at Feng Xiang. “As long as you do what I’ve told you to, I’ll give you the token.”

How dare he pretend to be charitable! She wouldn’t want any of his fatherly love even if he gave it to her. He thought too highly of himself.

“So, you’re not giving it to me even if you die?” Seeing that her attitude remained firm, Feng Xiang didn’t want to pretend anymore. His face grew grave, and he spoke in a cold, threatening tone.

Feng Tianlan looked at Xu Jiayi and Feng Xiuyu, who were now glaring at her hatefully, and her lips curled into a smile. “It’s not that I’m not willing to give it to you. I am your biological daughter after all. It’s just that…”

“Just what?” Feng Xiang quickly asked, thinking that she was beginning to soften.

“My dear, don’t believe anything she says. She’s very scheming,” Xu Jiayi quickly threw in a word. She had a bad feeling when she looked at Feng Tianlan.

Feng Xiang gave her a dirty look. “Don’t interrupt.”

Seeing this, Feng Tianlan pretended to be pitiful and said, “It’s just that I’ve been suffering silently for ten years now, and I need to vent my frustrations.”

“As long as it’s within my means, I’ll do anything you say other than fulfilling those conditions you listed just now! I promise!” Feng Xiang quickly responded. If she was just letting out frustration, then that could be easily settled.

“I’m sure it’s within your means.” Feng Tianlan looked back at Xu Jiayi and Feng Xiuyu, smiling a little more. “Father, you have no sons, only three daughters. I’m sure you don’t want another son-in-law marrying into the family, right?”

“Feng Tianlan!” Xu Jiayi screeched in anger, ready to tear Feng Tianlan to pieces.

“Shut up!”

Feng Xiang stopped Xu Jiayi from saying any more. He was angered by what Feng Tianlan had just said. He himself was a son-in-law who had married into his wife’s family. Even though he’d never admitted to it in public, it was the truth. Xu Jiayi only had two daughters and no son. Because of her who she was, he wasn’t able to take any concubines to have children. He had no mistresses either, so he was left with these three daughters.

Yu’er was to marry Third Prince and become South Winds Nation’s future empress. Pei’er had the fate of a phoenix, and she was destined to fly out of Guiyuan Continent. If he wanted a son, he would have to adopt a godson. Otherwise, someone could marry Feng Tianlan and adopt the Feng family name. But that would mean that the Feng family would belong to her, and all his plans would go down the drain.

However, since there was still a chance of him getting the token, he wouldn’t let it go. So, he pretended to be interested and asked, “What do you mean exactly?”

“Take a concubine.” Feng Tianlan saw Xu Jiayi’s eyes had become bloodshot from anger, and smiled as she suggested, “Your fiftieth birthday is a good date! Why don’t we have a double celebration? I’ll give you the token as a congratulatory gift with my own two hands.”

Feng Xiang did not hesitate, “Agreed.”

Now he had a reason to take a concubine and have a son. He would also get the token, so there was no reason to refuse.

“No.” Xu Jiayi clenched her teeth and stared at Feng Xiang. “My beloved husband, you promised me that you would never take a concubine.”

“Think about the bigger picture! It’s just a concubine. It’s not like can’t control just one woman. Do you want me to die without a son?” Feng Xiang was upset thinking about how he might have no descendants.
