Chapter 813 - Symbol of our love and fated destiny.
"From when did my fiancée become the mere woman to share my house, Third Uncle?" Feng Shufen said, staring deep into the eyes of Feng De Zhong and his words stunned everyone around. "How can the future daughter-in-law of the Feng family be a mere woman?"
The air that has remained silent for a while again got filled with chaotic whispers. Feng Yu Hao was no less surprised. Though these words were not much different from what he had last heard from his son, still introducing the girl like this to the relatives was a great step.
This only meant one thing – Everything that happened today has been in the plans of his son. And not a conspiracy set by the relatives against him.
Feng Yi Ran was also taken aback. But his startle didn't stay for long. Hearing her brother state it in such clear words, she couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile while downing her head to hide her expression from others. It was only now she understood why earlier the maid was given some mercy. It was just to put up the show to make the relatives come here and participate.
"What did you say? That woman is your fiancée? How did something like this happen without letting us know?" Feng De Zhong asked in a hyped tone. Just with his tone, it was evident that he wasn't expecting it to come. In all the past days, Wu Jiaqi has never reported any such information and none of them was sure of this thing.
As if they had lost a battle against his enemy before even marching on the battlefield, the relatives were all in a daze.
"Having a fiancée is my thing. Why should I report it to the world?" Feng Shufen asked nonchalantly. His words not giving any face to the relatives who have been desperately claiming their importance over everything.
Feng De Zhong felt losing all his nerves. His fists clenched on his sides. Though he knew that he or his son would not be able to compete with Feng Shufen for the position of the patriarch in the family. But he still held hope for the future.
But now if Feng Shufen gets to wed before his son and if his wife gets to conceive first, then again his family will lose. Something that he could not accept easily.
The thought itself was so disappointing that he could not even think of it for the second time. Turning at once to look at the head of the family, he said, "Elder Brother, how can you support the audaciousness of your son in this matter? Not only is he not seeking any suggestion from us, but also disrespecting us and the family by choosing a scandalous woman as his wife. We have heard that she already has a girl that calls her mother. How could a woman like her be suited to become the daughter-in-law of our family? There would be no way we could accept her".
He said and to his words the other people also supported him.
"Being the heir of our family, Feng Shufen's wife should be chosen very specifically. We cannot accept just anyone to come and fill the position. It's about the reputation of our family name."
"A woman with a kid, would definitely not suit the family."
"Instead of that woman, the girl from Zhang family suits more."
"Yes, I have also heard her to be quite impeccable with talent and grace. Definitely, that woman would never match her talents."
"Feng Shufen would need to reconsider his decision. We would not allow him to marry with a woman who has already birthed someone else's blood before."
Everyone started to disagree, but to every disagreement, Feng Shuen remained really calm and composed. Like he was just hearing some unimportant buzzing in the same air. But not everyone could be as calm as him.
Feng Yu Hao was no longer able to hold himself in the calm. Hearing people against his son would be the last thing he would want in this life. He knew that given to the rare stubbornness his son has, it was impossible to make him give up on the woman he held in his heart. And the father in him would never allow himself to snatch away the love and happiness of his son.
But at the same time, being the head of the family, he could as well not accept it. So letting the patriarch overpower the father in him, Feng Yu Hao said according to his position. Deep within he believed, his son would have the strength to protect the one he treasures.
"Shufen, being the heir of the family, you don't have the liberty to do that. For once we could accept your wife to be any woman, but not her. Only a woman with a decent and clean background is suitable".
"But Father, since Little Fen is favouring her, I am sure she would be …" When saw her brother getting on the downside of everyone, Feng Yi Ran thought to help but before she could even say something Feng Yu Hao shook his head at her.
"Don't support your brother over this Yi Ran. The relatives are right. A woman with a kid is not suitable for the position of the future matriarch of the family. Don't forget, even Qinrou has not gotten the position even being in the family for years now". The old man said, disappointment written over his face.
Feeling a little helpless, Feng Yi Ran looked at Feng Shufen. She felt bad for him. Though she has always wanted to see him ruling on the top, for once she wished that if it hadn't been so many responsibilities over his shoulders then maybe her brother would have lived his life with happiness.? ? ? `
Feng Shufen looked at his sister and he knew her thoughts already. He didn't say anything to her, instead turned to look at his father to reply. "I never knew in our family the women who take the trouble to carry the family's bloodline are not considered to be from a decent background."
"What do you mean?" Feng Yu Hao's brows furrowed and the same went with others. They were also about to ask the same but before anyone could, Feng Shufen said on his own, clearing everyone's doubts on his own.
"Li Xue is my fiancée. And WeiWei is the daughter of me and Li Xue."
The symbol of our love and fated destiny!
