Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law -
Chapter 33 One Should Not Be Too Ignorant
Only after Hong Yuting and the rest had fully entered did Fu Shen step forward and ask, "I found those two people from earlier somewhat familiar, but I can't seem to remember who they are. Also, third brother, they called you a son-in-law; to which family do you belong?"
Fu Zi's eyes widened in shock as he said, "Third brother, you're actually married? When did this happen?"
Ye Feng rubbed his head and answered, "It's a long story. Those two just now are from the Hong Family of Jiangdu."
"Oh right, this person behind me, she's my fiancée, Hong Qingyan!" It was only then that Ye Feng remembered to formally introduce her.
Fu Shen nodded slightly, greeting Hong Qingyan with a nod.
Fu Zi lamented, "My third brother is a man of profound feelings and integrity. Although his legs are broken now, he is a decent person. You two are married now, so I hope you will take good care of him in the future."
Hong Qingyan blushed, lowered her head slightly, and said softly, "I know."
Fu Zi felt sentimental, for ever since they were little, Ye Feng had always displayed a temperament unlike the others.
Ye Feng had been the king of the kids since childhood, even those children a couple of years older like the eldest brother and the second brother were thoroughly subdued by him, so Fu Zi had always felt a certain amount of respect and even admiration for him, since they were not true siblings after all.
However, now that her third brother was engaged, and this sister-in-law seemed quite nice, she naturally felt overjoyed.
"The Hong Family of Jiangdu, they indeed pass as a noble family, but the attitude of those two just now wasn't too good. Third brother, if you feel aggrieved at the Hong Family, you might as well come back to the Fu Family. You could even bring our sister-in-law along. After all, being a son-in-law is not easy."
Fu Shen, who was always forthright, did not mince words even in front of Hong Qingyan.
Ye Feng, somewhat between laughter and tears, shook his head slightly and said, "It's a minor matter. Let's go inside."
At this point, everyone walked into the hall together. Just then, the parking courtyard suddenly welcomed several luxury sports cars driving in. They were followed by several young men emanating an impressive aura, jumping out of the cars one after the other.
Even in a place like Mingzhu Grand Hotel, the appearance of several limited edition sports cars still managed to catch everyone's attention, and people began to discuss the elegantly dressed young men.
"Are these young men from the Long Family?" Fu Shen asked Ye Feng in a low voice.
"The Long Family? One of the Three Great Ancient Families?" Ye Feng remained indifferent.
"Exactly, the Long Family has the oldest heritage in Jiangdu. Their family head is also the current Leader of the Martial Alliance. Moreover, the Long Family once had a leading figure with some influence in the Southern Territory, so even the Jiang Family of the Southern River Region Jiangnan Province doesn't dare to offend the Long Family easily," Fu Shen explained.
Ye Feng nodded slightly, "To have had a leader in the Southern Territory, that's indeed remarkable. But now it seems that the Long Family might be in decline."
He had meant this remark to be a sincere reflection, yet it happened to be overheard by a member of the Long Family just entering the hall.
"To say that my Long Family is in decline, you certainly have quite the audacity!" Several members of the Long Family quickly walked in, all with mocking smiles as they looked at Ye Feng.
Ye Feng also looked up at them, smiling as he replied, "I heard that among your ancestors was a leader in the Southern Territory, but looking at you now, you all seem to be nothing more than dandies, struggling even to lay a solid foundation in martial arts. Isn't that what one calls a decline with each generation?"
Hearing these words, Fu Shen and Fu Zi were utterly shocked. Even in the heyday of the Fu Family, they wouldn't dare to offend the Long Family too much, but now, Ye Feng had outright spoken such words in front of them.
Put bluntly, wasn't this the same as calling someone trash to their face?
The three disciples of the Long Family, two men and one woman, were immediately enraged and shouted, "Who do you think you are to dare to comment on our Long Family's affairs?"
Another young man angrily said, "Looking at you in that wheelchair, you must be a cripple, crawled out from which corner have you, tired of living?"
Ye Feng didn't get angry, still smiling lightly, "My name is not something the likes of you are worthy of knowing. It's not just you; even if that grandfather of yours who rules the Southern Territory were here, he wouldn't have the qualification to ask in my presence!"
"Presumptuous!" The three Long Family disciples were furious and ready to take action.
In Jiangdu, their Long Family had never feared anyone. Even if they killed or crippled someone, if it wasn't a significant figure, it was just another death!
Fu Shen hurriedly stepped forward, saying in an attempt to appease, "I'm sorry, Elder Long Shaowu, this is my third brother. He has just returned to Jiangdu recently and isn't quite aware of the current situation. I ask the three of you to forgive him and not to lower yourselves to his level."
Among the three disciples from the Long Family, the oldest was the Eldest Grandson of the Long Family, Long Shaowu, followed by Long Shaogong. As for that tall and fairly beautiful woman, she was from the Dragon Sound Pavilion.
Long Shaowu then noticed Fu Shen and Fu Zi, speaking in a cold voice, "I wondered who it was, turns out to be the Fu Family's children. But now your family is declining, the only two people of any weight are dead, and now, all that's left are these old, weak and sickly people who seem even more arrogant than before?"
Long Shaogong snorted coldly, "Not to mention a cripple; even if Fu Zuoming were still alive, he wouldn't dare speak to our Long Family like this. And it's not just him, even that Formation Lord Fu Tian in the Southern Territory would need to show some respect to our Long Family if he were here."
Fu Shen laughed, "I won't mention my foster father, but if my elder brother were still here, right now the ones who would need to be courteous should probably be your Long Family, right?"
"What are you saying, Fu Shen? Do you know that you are challenging the Long Family's authority!" Long Shaogong roared in anger.
Fu Shen stopped talking, realizing that at this time, he had to keep silent and play the submissive grandson. After all, the situation was against them. Offending the Jiang Family was already bad enough; if they also offended the Long Family, then the Fu Family probably wouldn't be able to stand in Jiangdu anymore.
Fu Zi stepped in, "I'm sorry, the three of you, my third brother is outspoken, but it was an unintentional remark. Here, I apologize to you three on his behalf. Please don't take offense."
The young woman from the Long Family, Dragon Sound Pavilion, chuckled and said, "Big brother, second brother, let it be. The Fu Family is in decline, what is the point of beating a drowning dog? Besides, why bother about a cripple?"
Long Shaowu and Long Shaogong glanced at Ye Feng with disdain. In their eyes, Ye Feng, sitting in a wheelchair, was basically no different from a dead dog.
Ye Feng suddenly asked, "The current head of your Long Family, isn't he the Leader of the Martial Alliance in Jiangdu today? Did he come tonight?"
Long Shaowu snorted contemptuously, deeming the question unworthy of a response.
Dragon Sound Pavilion laughed and said, "My dear little brother, such a person as my grandfather is not someone you can inquire about. Since you too are a descendant of the Fu Family, you should understand what the Martial Alliance in Jiangdu means, and what it means to be the Leader of the Martial Alliance."
Having said that, she shrugged her fragrant shoulders lightly, chuckled and said, "We should not be too ignorant as human beings, don't you think I'm right?"
After saying this, she walked away without looking back, clearly having no interest in hearing Ye Feng's response, nor did she deign to listen to any.
