He was proud of her

Feng Jing's POV

After listening to Wang Yu Yan's testimony, I started to think that it all made sense, but still it would be my carelessness if I believed her words just like that.

Though she is Aunt Mian's daughter, it is my responsibility to investigate her every word, before letting her into the Feng family.

Deep in thoughts, I was startled by my phone ringtone. Coming back to my senses, I looked forward, only to see everyone staring at me.

I stared at the called ID, I have to take this call.

My mind ordered.

I said, "Excuse me, I need to take this call" as I got up from my spot and headed towards the second floor.

The second floor was a large corridor with rooms on it's right hand side. At the end of the corridor, was a large open balcony.

Picking up the call, I said, "Hello" as I walked through the corridor to the balcony.

"Hello, Vice President Feng, It's me" said the voice on the other side of the phone.

Recognizing the voice that was familiar to me, I said, "Hmm, tell me."

"We found some news regarding the Wang Family" he said, earning a raised eyebrow from me.

This information would decide the fate of Wang Yu Yan and the Feng Family.

Thinking about this I said, "What is it?"

"According to the resources, we got to know that the Old master of the Wang Family had two sons. One was Wang Fang who was the successor and other was Wang Bai who was his illegitimate son.

After the Old Master Wang died, which is expected to be done by Wang Bai, Wang Fang became the heir instead of Wang Bai who was older. On Wang Fang's wife's death, the heir was sent overseas .

In these ten years, Wang Bai did all necessary to bring the enemies and people inside the Wang Family to his side.

When Wang Fang's heir arrived from overseas, it's next year, he killed Wang Fang and named it as an accident. Getting a favourable opportunity, he tried to harm the heir but failed after which the heir was never seen.

Also, Wang Bai was deemed to be dead in an accident" till he came to the end, I was pretty much shocked on listening to Wang Family's past.

Indeed, people were true when they said the Wang Family is the most dangerous and secretive family.

I was lost in the thoughts, when the voice came again, " Hello?".

Coming back to the thoughts, I said, "Ok" and disconnected the call.

Gathering the thoughts in my mind, I sighed.

It seemed like I really misunderstood this time.

But it should not be a big deal for me, I still feel kind of guilty.

Why?

It was just a mistake and also it was my responsibility as a son of the family, to investigate the whole truth, I am sure anybody else in my place would have done the same.

But then why do I still feel guilty?

Trying to find something, my eyes were set in the above sky. Suddenly something came into my mind.

Not wanting to waste any time, I turned around, but was surprised to see someone totally unexpected.

Wang Yu Yan.

She had the always expressionless face but then also she looked mostly like Aunt Mian. The only difference was in their auras.

As far as I know, Aunt Mian was warm and bubblish. Totally like my mother. But when I see Wang Yu Yan, she is cold, unbothered and dominant.

Now that I look at her, she surely has the same aura as me. I agree with Feng Ji.

But this aura was seen also in someone I know too. Who was it?

Oh yeah, Li Wei.

On realizing what I was thinking, I mentally punched myself.

"I-" I wanted to say something but she was faster. Cutting me off, she said, "I am sorry. Excuse me" as she turned back and was going back.

"Little Yan" I suddenly called out.

Huh? What did I just say? L-Little Y-an.

I mentally face palmed myself. From where did I get this word? It is a little too intimate.

But what was done was done.

Listening to my stupid referring, Wang Yu Yan stopped in her tracks.

I bet she is as surprised as I am.

And as I expected, on her turning towards me, I got to see a somewhat surprised expression.

"Huh?"

This was her reaction.

But before I could say anything, her expression changed into a smirk and she said, "Yes, Big brother"

Listening to this, I was totally speechless. Amusing, very amusing.

I did not know when my lips curled into a smirk.

"I am sorry for doubting you," I said straightforwardly.

She raised her eyebrow and then with an expressionless face she said, "Apology accepted. Then if there is nothing else."

"Wait!" I said, stopping her in her tracks.

"I have a question," I said with a little caution.

"What is it, Big Brother?" she said with a smirk.

"As far as I expect, Aunt Mian must've told you about the Fengs. Then why did you not come to us for help when all this happened with Wang Family?" I said taking out the thoughts in my mind.

[End of Feng Jing's POV]

...

Listening to the question, Wang Yu Yan smiled. But didn't answer for some time, making Feng Jing anxious.

Taking a deep breath, she started, "What you would've done if out of nowhere someone suddenly popped out, telling you that she was your sister?"

"Huh?" Feng Jing was dumbfounded at the sudden question.

Not surprised at the reaction, Wang Yu Yan continued, "What the Feng Family must've done if suddenly someone says that she belonged to this family?"

It would have been very suspicious, also at the time when the people close to me did not believe me, how can I expect you, who did not know of my existence before these days, to believe me?"

Feng Jing stared at Wang Yu Yan and did not say anything.

Indeed, she was right. How must they have believed a mere someone, whom they did not even know?

How they would've believed someone they didn't know, when everyone was against her?

Seeing that he was not speaking anything, Wang Yu Yan said, "Furthermore, my mother never came back to ask help from you all, so why would I?

My mother who took her last breath without seeing her family, did not ever come back to you, so why would I? Though I said that I don't have the right to hate you all, I still am a human."

True.

All true.

Not a word wrong.

Feng Jing could not find any flaw in it. What she said was right after all.

Now Feng Jing really knew why he felt guilty.

What Wang Yu Yan has gone through was indeed very painful.

But to say that he pity's her is not the right thing to say. To him, she was the bravest girl he had met till now.

He was proud of her. Yes, that's right. He was proud of her.

Feng Jing did not have any questions left for her. He decided to accept her as a member of the Feng Family, as Feng Mian's daughter and as his little sister.

"Young Master, Young Miss, the Old Master is summoning you both." came a servant from behind putting an end to their conversation.

….

Wang Yu Yan and Feng Jing came one by one to the hall.

Seeing them coming together, Feng Shen asked, "Where were you both?"

Wang Yu Yan was about to answer, but Feng Jing said first, "I was having a talk with little Yan"

'Little Yan'

Listening to this, everyone at the hall became silent for a moment.

Feng Kang raised his eyebrow at Feng Jing. It will not be too wrong to say that the uneasiness Feng Kang felt was jealousy.

He hadn't had a proper talk with his granddaughter but this grandson of his, started calling her so intimately.

'How come they became so close? And Little Yan?' Feng Ji thought in his mind.

While the others were still in no position to say anything.

Clearing his throat, Feng Kang ignored Feng Jing and said, "Shuang, where is your daughter? I have not seen her in a long time" changing the topic.

"Ah, Uncle Feng, she must be on her way here. She had some errands to run today" Madam Wen replied.

At this Feng Kang nodded.

He had met Wen Mei and was quite surprised to see the difference between Wang Yu Yan and Wen Mei.

Wen Mei was cheerful and talkative whereas his granddaughter was cold and indifferent.

When he was told that she and Wang Yu Yan were friends, he was quite surprised, because they both had totally different personalities.

But at the same time, he was relieved to see that Wang Yu Yan had someone to warm her cold demeanor.

"Young Miss Wen is here" announced a servant at the same time.
