Closer to Revealing My True Self-Chapter 819 - 526 Someone_2

And their family of three, having gained a certain degree of independence from the clan, still controlled the situation. In plain terms, they had forsaken a large part of the family interests in exchange for relative freedom, but the familial ties hadn’t undergone significant changes.

Old Man Feng could kick you out, but you couldn’t just jump out on your own.

Why, after Old Man Feng kicked Feng Yi out, did Feng Yi stay away from Yang City for several years, and why did nobody dare to openly contact him?

To say that Old Man Feng hung over the family like a knife was more than just a metaphor.

Hmm... Later, when Feng Yi returned to Yang City and engaged in a series of actions, making his presence so felt and blatantly strutting around Yang City, even Old Man Feng held back from acting against him, which left them puzzled. Facing the returned Feng Yi, Old Man Feng seemed to have an exceptionally good tolerance.

Not long ago, when Feng Yi’s identity was exposed, Old Man Feng endured even a hospital admission in anger, so why the sudden move now? What provoked him?

To be more realistic, what sort of interest would compel Old Man Feng to take action at this time?

This was clearly intended to harm someone!

Was he truly going senile?

It didn’t quite seem like it.

Feng Chi’s father pondered the situation with a flicker in his gaze, looked at Feng Chi, and asked, "What else do you know?"

Feng Chi responded with a face of innocent ignorance, "I don’t know anything at all!"

At this time, Feng Chi’s mother said, "Alright, alright, we definitely won’t get involved with the matters at the old house! A’chi, you must be careful too, and it’s best if you get back to work quickly and don’t stay in Yang City!"

Feng Chi felt this advice was spot-on.

If his brother was currently butting heads with Old Man Feng, him staying would not be of any help, and might even be a drag.

Feng Chi sighed, "My brother is still too soft-hearted!"

His parents looked at him, their eyes seeing a child weighing seventy-something kilograms.

Being able to firmly hold the position of the decision-maker of the Ancestral Factory, how soft-hearted could he possibly be?

But tonight’s events made Feng Chi thoroughly convinced of just that.

The things I saw tonight, are those secrets meant for me to know?!

In that scenario, if it were anyone else from the Feng Family, Feng Chi would have silently disappeared from the world!

However, these were things he would not speak of, perhaps for the rest of his life.

The Feng Family’s old house.

Old Man Feng sat in his usual tearoom, looking at a newly received message on his mobile phone.

Facial muscles twitched and the blue veins on his hand stood out.

He abruptly picked up a teacup from beside him and hurled it to the ground.

Crash!

The teacup shattered.

No one dared enter to clean it up, not given the permission.

Old Man Feng, gasping for breath and looking somber, was weighing his thoughts. After a long time, his anger slowly subsided.

----

When Feng Yi got home, it was already very late. Not long after he arrived, he received a call from Team Leader Yuan of the Bureau of United Assurance Special Task Force.

Old Yuan, on an assignment out of town, had made a special call to check on Feng Yi after hearing about his situation.

The joint investigation team recently made new progress in the case of prohibited drugs, and things were getting tense.

The Ancestral Factory had collaboration with the investigating team, and should an accident occur to the senior management of the Ancestral Factory at this time, it would definitely have serious repercussions.

Besides, Team Leader Yuan and Feng Yi were old acquaintances and he was also worried about Feng Yi’s current safety.

"After you return to Yang City, don’t leave the city in the near future... If things get unstable in Yang City, just go straight to the Ancestral Factory headquarters. Try not to travel out of city for a short while," Old Yuan advised.

Feng Yi replied, "Alright, that’s what I was intending to do, keeping a low profile for the time being."

The storm had passed, and tomorrow promised to be fine weather, but tonight, storms unknown to most were occurring in many places.

Early the next morning.

Feng Yi received a message from Feng Chi.

Feng Chi was planning to leave Yang City to immerse in work, and his key message to Feng Yi was:

[Old Man Feng suddenly went to the hospital, but I think his health should be fine, don’t know what trick he’s brewing now.]

Feng Yi smiled and replied:

[Don’t worry, let him stay in there.]

Feng Chi couldn’t help but laugh when he saw the reply. His brother’s words had multiple meanings.

Knowing that Feng Yi had everything under control, he stopped worrying. He also profoundly understood that meddling in the conflicts between the big shots was indeed not for small players like them.

A hospital in Yang City.

The sudden hospitalization of Old Man Feng meant that no matter what other members of the Feng Family were doing, they dropped everything to rush to the hospital.

The Feng Family’s eldest uncle sat in his business car, wondering what was really going on.

He had indeed heard that there was some trouble on Feng Yi’s side, and at the same time, several of Yang City’s secretive grey establishments had been raided the previous night.

The trouble with Feng Yi seemed to be related to Old Man Feng, and even if he hadn’t acted directly, he was definitely involved!

He heard that investigators were planning to question Old Man Feng.

If Old Man Feng got too agitated, truly...

Cough!

The Feng Family’s eldest uncle suppressed the wild pounding in his heart, opened his thermos, and took a sip of water to soothe his throat.

Calming his emotions, the eldest uncle speculated again:

Was this a ruse by Old Man Feng?

If it was an act, then the usually domineering Old Man Feng appearing to dodge the situation in this way indicated that he was really getting old and was significantly lacking in vitality!

Thinking this way, the eldest uncle arrived at the hospital, but then, something felt off!

Investigators had indeed come looking, but Old Man Feng coped with them with ease.

After many years of understanding Old Man Feng, this condition of his didn’t seem to take the investigators seriously.

This investigation, once again, could not genuinely shake Old Man Feng.

Even if they knew he was behind the machinations, without proof, the leads would break off in the midst of investigation and there might even be people willing to take the fall for him.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that Old Man Feng was lying in a hospital bed now, his composure still seemed quite steady.
