Chapter 1065: Entering the Game
Duan Wensheng stood up from the sofa and came over to ask, "What’s going on?"
"This is Feihong’s friend, Mr. Ling Feng!" Chu Yue introduced.
"Oh, Mr. Ling, hello!"
Duan Wensheng nodded in greeting, then looked towards Chu Yue: "Let her go upstairs when Feihong arrives. Mr. Wu has asked about her twice, it seems he’s eager to see her!"
Having said that, he didn’t look at Ling Feng and turned back to the sofa.
"I’m sorry, Mr. Ling. My husband is just like this, a bit clueless about social niceties!" Chu Yue said somewhat awkwardly.
Ling Feng smiled: "It’s okay."
Then he said to Duan Feihong, "Let’s go, we should go upstairs and check!"
"Ah, Mr. Ling is going up too?" Chu Yue asked.
"Yes, my main task today is to protect Feihong’s safety, so I must stay by her side!" Ling Feng said.
Though he had already scanned the upstairs with Divine Sense a moment ago, and besides Wu Gang lying in the hospital bed, there were several others present, including Wu Dahai, Wu Hua, and an unidentified old man.
Concerned about Duan Feihong’s safety, Ling Feng couldn’t afford to be careless, so he had to follow.
After all, Wu Gang appeared perfectly healthy last night, yet in just twelve hours, he ended up paralyzed in bed, which always feels a bit off.
Chu Yue, upon hearing this, was stunned and looked bewilderedly at Duan Feihong and Ling Feng: "Bodyguard?"
"Mom, just leave it be, I’m going upstairs to check!"
Duan Feihong said and turned towards the staircase.
Ling Feng smiled at Chu Yue and followed suit.
Watching their backs, Chu Yue’s expression flickered, as if she had realized something.
Then, she sighed inwardly: "This just got complicated!"
After going upstairs, Wu Hua was the first to notice Duan Feihong and hurriedly came out to greet her: "Feihong, you’ve arrived!"
Upon seeing Ling Feng, he paused for a moment!
"Hello Mr. Wu!" Ling Feng greeted with a smile.
"Oh, Mr. Ling, you came as well?"
"Yes, I accompanied Feihong to see how the old gentleman was doing," Ling Feng asked.
Wu Hua’s eyes flickered, then he smiled: "Nothing serious, the doctor has given him an injection, and he just fell asleep."
At this moment the others in the room also noticed Duan Feihong and Ling Feng, so the strange old man came out and said sternly, "Feihong, you have come. Why didn’t you come earlier?"
"Grandfather, I was delayed on the road," Duan Feihong replied.
Ling Feng understood that this solemn-faced old man must be the elder of the Duan Family.
Since the old man did not look at him, he did not greet him but stood aside listening.
Duan Zhenggang gave a soft grunt, then said indifferently, "Old Wu just had his injection and is now asleep; don’t disturb him. Let’s talk when he wakes up later!"
"Oh, what illness does the old gentleman have? He was fine last night!" Duan Feihong asked.
"It’s still unclear, we have called for Divine Doctor Sun, but he is still on his way and won’t arrive until noon," Duan Zhenggang said.
"Then..."
Remembering Ling Feng’s miraculous medical skills, Duan Feihong turned to look at him.
Ling Feng subtly shook his head; he didn’t want to get involved in the Wu Family’s matters this early and preferred to observe a bit longer.
Ling Feng felt like he had entered a trap, everyone in the mansion was entangled, and he wanted to watch how the situation would unfold first.
If I go and treat Wu Gang now, it might disrupt the situation and cause unnecessary complications.
Seeing his gaze, Duan Feihong did not say anything else; instead, he nodded and said, "Alright, I’ll go downstairs first."
"Hmm, have a good talk with Wu Hua, you two were quite close when you were kids!" Duan Zhenggang said.
Hearing this, Duan Feihong’s expression stiffened, but he said nothing and smiled as he turned to go downstairs.
Ling Feng followed her, and hearing footsteps behind them, he knew Wu Hua was also coming down.
He obviously couldn’t say anything, and thought to himself that this young man better not take Duan Feihong away for a private moment.
If that were the case, he would have to use Divine Sense to track them; following them openly would make him suspicious.
Sure enough, just as they reached the bottom of the stairs, Wu Hua immediately said, "Feihong, let me take you to see the horses at the farm. A foal was born just yesterday!"
"Ah? This..."
Duan Feihong hesitated, and subconsciously glanced at Ling Feng.
"You two go ahead, I won’t intrude!" Ling Feng said with a smile.
"Alright then!"
Duan Feihong nodded and said to Wu Hua, "Let’s go and have a look."
Wu Hua glanced at Ling Feng. He had noticed the subtle expression on Duan Feihong just a moment ago, and a sense of wariness suddenly arose, wondering what exactly was the relationship between these two!
So the two of them left the villa, and just outside on the lawn, he couldn’t help asking, "Feihong, what is Mr. Ling to you?"
"My friend, why do you ask?" Duan Feihong responded.
"Nothing much, just curious since he has been around yesterday and today!" Wu Hua said with a smile.
"Mr. Ling has nothing urgent these days, it’s his first visit to Capital City, that’s why he’s out and about with me!" Duan Feihong explained.
"I see..."
As they talked, they headed towards the stables, while Ling Feng, using Divine Sense from inside the villa, watched this scene and chuckled inwardly.
At that moment, Chu Yue came over to his side: "Mr. Ling, you know about Feihong and Wu Hua’s situation, right?"
"Yes," Ling Feng nodded.
Chu Yue smiled helplessly: "You’re not an outsider, so I won’t hide it; I actually don’t support this matter, but I couldn’t resist the old master..."
"Don’t overthink it, Feihong can make her own decisions. If she doesn’t like Wu Hua, I believe they won’t end up together in the future!" Ling Feng said.
"I was thinking the same, but you don’t know the situation with the Duan Family, sigh!"
Chu Yue sighed and then continued, "Let’s not talk about this. Mr. Ling, you’ve come all this way, and I haven’t properly hosted you yet. Why not visit my house later?"
"We’ll see about that. I still have official duties; if things get sorted, I might have to return!" Ling Feng said.
Chu Yue hesitated: "Can’t you stay a day or two longer so I can show you a bit of hospitality?"
"We’re all family here; there’s no need for that!" Ling Feng said with a laugh.
As they were talking, Duan Wensheng came over and asked, "What are you discussing?"
"Old Duan, let me introduce him properly, this is Ling Feng, a sworn brother of my Uncle Chu!" Chu Yue said, pulling him over.
"Is that so? Then I’m fortunate to meet him!"
Duan Wensheng smiled, his tone somewhat perfunctory, then continued, "Since Mr. Duan is here, why not sit over here? Let’s chat together!"
"Sure."
Ling Feng thought to himself that since he was idle anyway, it was better to find a place to sit than to stand around foolishly.
But just as he sat down on the sofa, someone said, "Isn’t that Miss Duan’s bodyguard? Does he have the right to sit down?"
