Chapter 1062: You Said His Name Is Feng Jue?!

The Feng family.
Ever since he visited Baling Mountain Cemetery to honor his ancestors and encountered ghosts during Qingming Festival this year, Feng Xuan, the head of the Feng family, had been plagued by nightmares.
In his dreams, he constantly saw the tragic death of his younger brother.
He had delegated many responsibilities of the Feng Corporation to his son, Feng Hao, and had not been involved in the day-to-day management. However, one day, the family elders informed him that numerous companies under the Feng Corporation were on the brink of bankruptcy, and the corporation itself had been losing money for a month.
Feng Xuan, alarmed by his declining health, called Feng Hao over immediately.
In a fit of rage, Feng Xuan threw a tablet at Feng Hao’s feet. “I entrusted the family business to you, and this is how you repay me? You’ve been losing money for months, and many subsidiary companies have closed down. Are you trying to ruin our vast family empire?”
Despite the room’s heater being on, Feng Hao was drenched in cold sweat. “Dad, you don’t understand the situation. I don’t know what’s going on with Dream Seeking Group lately. They’ve been making things extremely difficult for us and attacking our company from all angles.”
Feng Xuan frowned. “Dream Seeking Group? Does Fan Yuan have such power?”
The Dream Seeking Group was a leader in China’s electronic technology industry, and even the four aristocratic families and the Eight Great Clans in the capital did not dare to underestimate it.
Coincidentally, the Feng family also produced electronic technology products. When the Dream Seeking Group was first established, Feng Xuan felt threatened and suppressed but was eventually defeated. As the Dream Seeking Group grew stronger, capturing more than half of the Feng family’s market share, the Feng family was forced to shift focus to other fields. Over the years, Feng Xuan, while managing the Feng Corporation, had often clashed with the CEO of Dream Seeking Group, Fan Yuan.
Despite Dream Seeking Group’s formidable presence, it seemed unlikely that Fan Yuan alone could continuously cause the Feng family to incur losses, force them into bankruptcy, or close their subsidiary companies.
Feng Hao said, “Dad, I’ve looked into it. There’s a mysterious chairman behind Fan Yuan at Dream Seeking Group. His surname is also Feng.”
“There’s very little information about him online. The only time he appeared publicly was on a variety show years ago. He was involved in a poverty alleviation project and worked closely with the Gu family in Jin City, which is now based in the capital.”
“Feng?” Feng Xuan was taken aback, a sense of foreboding creeping over him. “What’s his name?”
Feng Hao shook his head. “I can’t find his full identity or any photos of him. The only appearance he made was while wearing a mask. From what I gather, he doesn’t seem very old—probably in his early twenties.”
Feng Hao took out his phone and opened the photo album, handing it to Feng Xuan. “Dad, this is the person.”
The young man in the photo wore a black mask that concealed his face, leaving only a pair of seemingly gentle and harmless eyes visible.
Those eyes…
After Ye Qianli finished what she had to do, she felt like she came back to life and sighed. Her voice was like a lazy cat that had just eaten its fill, containing an indescribable charm and mellowness.
She sat up and was about to put on her clothes, but when she got a clear view of the man whom she had ‘finished off’, her movements froze for a moment because of that pair of eyes on him.
Silver eyes.
A pair of eyes as bright as the moon shone in his silver eyes. However, it did not seem strange or sinister. Instead, it gave off an elegant and distant charm.
Apart from this pair of striking silver eyes, his facial features were also extremely outstanding, like they were exquisitely carved from fine jade of the highest quality. Just looking at him made one feel cool and comfortable.
His inky black eyebrows were like dyed paintings, his nose bridge was high and straight, and his lips were plump and sexy. Especially after being nibbled on by her, they seemed even more beautiful and alluring, simply making one’s heart pound by looking.
Just based on looks alone, he was undoubtedly a handsome man!
Look at his figure, too.
Oh my, how embarrassing!
Broad shoulders, narrow waist, lean and sexy…
However, just as Ye Qianli’s eyes were about to strip him naked and give him another visual ‘assault’, this man—who had always been at her mercy—moved!
He moved!
Although his movements were weak, he still managed to move!
He raised his hand and gathered the clothes that had been pulled off of him, covering up everything lovely in sight. His eyes were also clear and bright, exuding a dark killing intent!
The darkness in his brightly-lit silver eyes became more and more terrifying. He was like an awakening god—one ruling over everything—and was planning to kill this woman who had blasphemed against his elegance and honor with one slap.
Danger!
Super dangerous!
Ye Qianli narrowed her eyes lightly and quickly deduced that she had not only sinned against a peerlessly beautiful man… but also a super terrifying man.
Furthermore…!
Ye Qianli could clearly feel that a terrifying power was rising in this man’s body. This completely changed the image of him being weak and easy to ravage.
Without a doubt, she would definitely die if she waited until he fully recovered.
Whoosh!
As soon as Ye Qianli realized the danger, her speed increased. It was as if her potential had been stimulated once again. She wrapped up her tattered clothes and disappeared in an instant like a little leopard.
After a while, Ye Qianli—who was running away—could clearly feel a terrifying and violent killing intent erupting from far behind.
Even without thinking, she could tell that it was definitely released from that man.
Hiss. Ye Qianli’s entire body shivered as she secretly praised herself for running fast. Otherwise, she would probably have been chopped into pieces by now.
However, thinking about the brutish act that she had done to a certain handsome man, she could understand his anger, too.
However…
“I was clearly the one at a disadvantage while he was the one who took advantage of a young maiden like me, okay? Who is he trying to scare with such a heavy murderous aura?” Ye Qianli muttered unhurriedly, but her speed of escape did not decrease at all. Moreover, her target destination was quite clear.
Through her body’s memories, Ye Qianli clearly remembered that she originally lived in the Southern Palace of the Clear Wind Palace. However, she was brought to the Northern Palace by her younger female cousin.
That younger female cousin said that she wanted to see an exotic flower. In the end, they had not seen the exotic flower, but Ye Qianli herself became a poisoned flower and was almost defiled by a fat pig.
Previously, she did not have the time to think about these things. After all, survival was the main issue at that time. However, now that she thought about it carefully, how had she been poisoned? Why was there no one who could save her wherever she went?
The collaboration between the Gu family and Dream Seeking Group in Jin City seemed odd—it was almost like a charity project.”
“I sensed something was off, so I investigated the Gu family and discovered that the adopted son of the current head of the Gu family also has the surname Feng and is named Feng Jue.”
“He’s one of the top scorers who achieved full marks on last year’s College Entrance Examination. Although the Gu sisters are often in the spotlight, this adopted son tends to be overlooked.”
“What?! You said his name is Feng Jue?!” Feng Xuan was visibly shocked.
