Chapter 1397: Must be a lot of things to explain.
Feng Yu Hao’s fists clenched. Although he understood the concern of Chen Rui, at this moment his concern was Li Xue. He might not know the girl well, but given how dull Shufen and WeiWei have turned in one month of her absence, he very well understood her importance in the two people’s lives.
And at the moment, knowing that once again someone had dared to attack her, he didn’t know how else he could assure her safety. He wanted to deny the accusation of Chen Rui but at the same time he knew he had no assurance to provide to her.
“Mrs. Shin, I know you are worried for your daughter, but I can say confidently that whatever happened today with Li Xue has nothing to do with anyone in our family. No one in the Fengs would dare to harm Li Xue, knowing how precious Shufen treats her. This must be someone else. We have to look out for them. Don’t worry, Li Xue is our daughter-in-law, we will take care of this.”
He said and Chen Rui at once scoffed. “Daughter-in-law! Heh! Old Mr. Feng, you are quick to accept her as your daughter-in-law now. I heard that there was once a time when your family blatantly said they are against Li Xue joining the Feng family. So, what changed so suddenly?”
Feng Yu Hao’s brows furrowed. “Mrs. Shin, I know our Feng family has offended Li Xue once but she has never been treated unfairly by us. Even though some of the Feng relatives were against accepting her, I never encouraged their will and had clearly told each of them that she is Feng Shufen’s wife. You can’t blame us falsely.”
He said, and Chen Rui simply ignored his explanation as if he never said anything to explain his stance at the first place.
While at the same time, back at the hospital … in the room of Zhang Xiaotong, Zhang Qian Lan’s slap rang loud. Without holding her strength back, she simply hit the man hard on his face. The person was the same one from the same group of attackers who had previously tried to attack Li Xue.
“None of you are of any use. I have just been paying a bunch of useless pigs who can’t even handle a woman. Aren’t you ashamed to say that you have not even stabbed her to death?” She said, clearly frustrated at the failure of the men.
“Madam, we tried. But that woman had the skills. Before even the knife could touch her, she dodged our attack and next Feng Shufen came. We weren’t able to …”
“Enough! Don’t make excuses now.” Zhang Qian Lan snapped at the person before turning to look at her daughter, who was lying lifelessly on the bed. “No matter how skill that bi*ch is. I won’t forgive her for the things she did to my daughter. Did she really think that she would be able to live happily in her life after what she did to my Xiaotong?”
“Qian Lan, can’t you now stop it? Xiaotong brought this on herself. Also, do not forget who Li Xue really is? Do you really think you will be able to touch her just like that? She is the princess from the royal family and also the wife of Feng Shufen. If Shufen comes to know that it was you who tried to harm Li Xue today, he won’t allow us to live.” Zhang Jian Guo, who was all known to his wife’s plan spoke while clicking his tongue.
But at his senseful talk, the woman only turned to glare at him. “So, what if Feng Shufen comes to know? That woman brought my daughter to such a condition and I can’t even take revenge on her? Heh! I will kill her, let me see who has the power to hold me back. Before Xiaotong wakes up, I have to weave a path for her. Only after Li Xue is gone from this world will she be able to live happily with Feng Shufen. So, I will make sure that her wish gets fulfilled.”
She said and the old man simply shook his head at his wife senile thoughts. But now there was nothing she could fear as well. The name of the Zhangs has been long wiped off the map of the society chain. They were only left with their lives which also no longer felt of any use. They were just living to see their daughter recover.
But now he fears that given the insane thoughts of his wife, Zhang Xiaotong won’t have much life left in this world. Because if Feng Shufen came to know that it was no other but Zhang Qian Lan behind all of it, he would get back to show the dark side whose mention itself was enough to make the soul leave his body.
“Qian Lan, Xiaotong needs treatment. You know if Shufen gets triggered now, we won’t be able to take care of our daughter. For her sake, please don’t try anything reckless. Li Xue is not someone we could dare to offend any long.” He said and at the mention of Xiaotong like that, the woman paused for a moment.
Her eyes turned to gaze at her daughter who was still lying unconscious like a dead body. Seeing her in such a state, she was no longer able to hold her tears back. Getting on her knees at once, she slumped on the floor, crying in remorse. “Jian Guo, what should we do? I can’t see Xiaotong like this anymore. Please wake her up and take her away from here. We can let her live here anymore and take the pain.”
She cried and Zhang Jian Guo went to her side to console. Patting her back, he nodded. “Don’t worry, Qian Lan. Now we will no longer let her suffer from any pain. Once she gets better, we will take her away from her.” He assured, but the couple knew very know their promises were nothing but the lies they are telling to soothe their hearts.

On the other side, soon the black Maybach drove through the woods before coming to a halt abruptly. Inside the car, it was just Li Xue and Feng Shufen sitting. None of them have spoken since they left the hospital but now the silence was getting too much.
Not able to take it any longer, Feng Shufen turned to look at Li Xue, who simply kept staring at the front.
“Do you have something to ask?” He asked, and a cold smirk raised Li Xue’s lips at the corners.
Turning, she looked at Feng Shufen before shaking her head in denial. “I don’t have but I am sure there must be a lot of things that you want to explain.”
