Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 746: Chapter 449: Each Shows Their Skills

”Here’s this for you.” Feng Xian slipped a delicate little gift box to Feng Tianzhi, and then looked at Luo Ye and Ye Xuan in surprise, ”You’re also here? Are we on the same flight? Such a coincidence.”

”Yeah, it sure is quite a coincidence.” Luo Ye nodded politely in response, while Ye Xuan glanced at her briefly without speaking.

”Why are you giving me this?” Feng Tianzhi opened the little gift box, staring at the emerald phoenix hairpin inside with a puzzled expression.

”Big brother, this is what Sister Qingqing wanted, and she happens to be in Island City too, you can help take it to her,” Feng Xian explained with a cheeky smile.

Feng Tianzhi closed the box again and handed it back to her, ”You find your own way, I’m not getting involved.”

”Big brother, she’s been acquainted with us since childhood, and she’s my friend too...” Feng Xian poked Feng Tianzhi repeatedly, ”Help out, I’ve already promised her, you’ll leave me embarrassed if you ignore it.”

”Not getting involved,” Feng Tianzhi resolutely shook his head.

”Little Ye’er...” Feng Xian turned her gaze to Luo Ye, ”Will you help me? My big brother is such a stubborn mule, driving me crazy.”

Luo Ye, being very clever, blinked and shook her head in refusal, ”Miss Feng, I’m not really in a position to take over this matter.”

”Alright, do you think Little Ye’er is like those other girls you know?” Feng Tianzhi gestured to Feng Xian, ”Don’t try to use Hang Qingqing to gauge Little Ye’er, she likes Ye Xuan. Can’t you tell?”

Feng Xian looked at Luo Ye with a smiling gaze, ”Little Ye’er, what if I say I also like Ye Xuan and plan to pursue him, how would you respond?”

”It wouldn’t change anything.” Luo Ye turned her gaze to Ye Xuan, with a charming smile, ”I trust him.”

Feng Xian, speechless, spread her hands and looked at Feng Tianzhi, ”Big brother, what should we do? I thought I’d help you out a bit, but now you’ve said it all yourself. I tried to push things from Little Ye’er’s side, but she’s just like that. What should I do? And now I’ve fallen for Little Ye’er too, what should I do?”

Feng Tianzhi waved a hand, ”Alright, stop worrying about what to do. Just get on with what you’re supposed to be doing, don’t worry here.”

”Big brother, you’re really annoying, I meant well.” Feng Xian glared at him, rolled her eyes, and turned to Ye Xuan, ”Big guy, I initially thought of pursuing you to provoke Little Ye’er, but it seems that’s unnecessary now.

You, you’re such a charming devil, always attracting trouble wherever you go. The women around you are bound to create drama, oh, I’m really worried for Little Ye’er, such a sweet and adorable Little Ye’er, how can she possibly fend off these women who are like wolves or tigers?”

Ye Xuan glanced at her briefly, just as the announcement for boarding began, he turned to Feng Tianzhi and Liu Xing, ”I can’t accompany Ye’er back to Island City, so please take extra care of her on the way. Thank you very much.”

Feng Tianzhi was clearly taken aback for a moment, remaining silent, while Liu Xing quickly smiled and said, ”Instructor Ye, don’t worry, Ye’er is like my own sister, I’ll take care of her.”

”You’re that confident?” Feng Tianzhi raised an eyebrow, ”Aren’t you afraid I’ll take advantage of the situation?”

”I trust her, as deeply as I trust myself.” Ye Xuan seriously looked at him, ”I’ve passed the age of acting impulsively. If I want to protect her well, I can’t act recklessly.”

”So you’re implying that I’m acting recklessly?”

”No, we’re in different positions, so naturally we act differently.” Ye Xuan patted Luo Ye’s head, ”Ye’er, call me once you’re off the plane, I’ll come find you once I’m done.”

Luo Ye took the initiative to hug him, ”I know, don’t worry.”

Feng Xian’s eyes flickered, her gaze towards Ye Xuan showing a slight change...

...

After Luo Ye and the others boarded, Feng Xian caught up with Ye Xuan, ”Can I hitch a ride with you?”

”No,” Ye Xuan replied firmly.

”Why so stingy?” Feng Xian glared at him, ”Even if we aren’t friends, basic manners should still apply, don’t you think?”

Seeing Ye Xuan remain silent, Feng Xian rolled her eyes playfully, edging closer with a grin, ”Why the serious face and silence? Are you scared of falling for me if we’re together? Afraid?”

Ye Xuan cast her a brief glance, still maintaining his calm demeanor.

Feng Xian patted her forehead, ”Come on, say something, don’t just be a silent gourd. I’m curious how Luo Ye ended up liking someone as reticent as you.

Not to mention you’re always attracting trouble for her, barely speaking a word all day, it’s worrying! How to live if together every day?”

”That’s not for you to worry about,” Ye Xuan finally uttered.

”I like Little Ye’er, of course I want her to be happy.” Feng Xian blinked, nudged him, ”Tell me honestly, are you not bringing Little Ye’er back to Island City because you’re afraid of delays in work, or do you really have confidence in her?”

Ye Xuan suddenly stopped, seriously observing her, ”I know you aren’t as simple-minded as you appear on the surface, your personality is much like Feng Tianzhi’s, using a straightforward exterior to mask what you really think inside.

You’re intentionally using concern for Ye’er as an excuse because you feel, by doing so, neither I nor Ye’er will see you as an adversary, making it easier for you to do something for Feng Tianzhi.

And I know you don’t mean any harm to Ye’er, you genuinely believe your brother is more suitable for her. But Feng Xian, it makes sense for you to think your brother is the best, but please don’t disguise your actions under the pretense of familial affection while making subtle moves around me.”

Now, I solemnly tell you, Ye’er is my life. For her, I can give up anything, and at the same time, for her, I must get things I didn’t care about.

This is the first and last time I say these things to you. I hope those unclear questions you have won’t reach my ears again, to avoid disrupting the peace.”

”You...” Feng Xian was left speechless, staring at him, unsure what to say. By the time she collected herself, Ye Xuan’s car was out of sight. She stomped her foot hard, ”What a show-off, troublemaker.” She couldn’t help but cover her flushed cheeks, ”However, he does look very handsome when he’s serious, big brother... Ah... what should I do... If I try any harder, I might end up trapping myself.”

...

Luo Ye glanced at Feng Tianzhi sitting next to her, not surprised at all. With his abilities, it wasn’t difficult to find out in advance.

Sitting behind Feng Tianzhi, Liu Xing stared at his back with a complicated expression. Deep down, he wished for Ye’er’s happiness and knew he wasn’t suitable, so he completely put his feelings away, only wanting to help her well.

But seeing a man other than Ye Xuan treat Ye’er like that, he couldn’t help feeling sour and was secretly annoyed at himself for not daring to express himself?

”Little Ye’er, I won’t make things difficult for you,” Feng Tianzhi suddenly said.

”Ah?” Luo Ye was stunned, nodding, ”Thank you.”

”I only have one request, don’t be so polite with me. If you dare to be polite with me, I can’t promise I won’t lose control and make things difficult for you.”

Luo Ye rolled her eyes, ”Madman.”

”Fine, you can call me Madman from now on.” Feng Tianzhi smiled contentedly, ”That’s quite a pleasant name. Although others call me that behind my back, no one dares to say it to my face. I permit you to call me that face-to-face from now on.”

”Please, can you be a bit more serious?” Luo Ye thought for a moment and asked, ”You’re responsible for the selection of new Fierce Tiger members, how can you leave so leisurely?”

”Do I need to do that myself? I delegated the small tasks to Zhao Qianqian and Liu Ailing. The specific selection starts after the fifteenth of the new year.” Feng Tianzhi suddenly became serious, ”Little Ye’er, speak honestly, do you want to be vice captain?”

”That’s a funny question.” Luo Ye looked at him speechlessly, ”From what you say, if I want to be vice captain, are you planning to help me through the back door?”

Feng Tianzhi shook his head, ”No, I don’t mean that. It’s precisely because I like you that I can’t harm you. If I do that, no matter how capable you are, no one will respect you.”

Luo Ye breathed a sigh of relief, ”Oh, then I’m relieved. But what did you mean by asking that earlier?”

”Alright, I’m hoping Little Ye’er can be vice captain, so we have more opportunities to work together, and I can spend more time with Little Ye’er.

Asking wasn’t about helping you do anything, but just to give myself a sense of reassurance. Little Ye’er, I hope you understand, I don’t necessarily love you less than Ye Xuan.”

”Uh...” Seeing the elderly lady in the seat opposite smiling meaningfully, Luo Ye looked embarrassed and lowered her voice, ”Captain Feng, could you lower your voice when saying things like that?”

Feng Tianzhi followed Luo Ye’s gaze and handed his fruit plate to her, ”Auntie, have some fruit. Please don’t mind our conversation, alright?”

The elderly lady gave him a thumbs up, ”Young man, you have courage. If this young girl doesn’t like you, I’ll introduce you to my granddaughter.”

”No need, I just like her.” Feng Tianzhi quickly refused.

”My granddaughter isn’t any less pretty than this young girl. She’s beautiful. I’ll introduce you after the flight, whether you like her or not, meeting her won’t hurt.”

It seemed the elderly lady truly favored Feng Tianzhi.

With the elderly lady listening intently, the conversation couldn’t continue. Feng Tianzhi took a blanket and draped it over Luo Ye, ”Ye’er, rest for a while.”

”Okay.” Luo Ye was eager to end the conversation, obediently covered herself with the blanket, and closed her eyes.

The elderly lady continued to eat fruit while scrutinizing Feng Tianzhi. Eldest Young Master Feng, who was usually so nonchalant, couldn’t take it anymore and frowned at the elderly lady, ”Auntie, could you not look at me like that?”

”Young man, I’m considering if you’re suitable to be my granddaughter’s husband.” The elderly lady lifted the fruit plate, ”Just because you gave me this treat, I’m inclined to give you a chance.”

Feng Tianzhi: ”...”

”Young man, my granddaughter is destined for prosperity, with fair skin and a round face. The fortune teller said she will surely bring good fortune to her husband.”

Feng Tianzhi closed his eyes, pretending to sleep.

”Young man, you’re not asleep, I saw your eyelashes fluttering. Are you shy?”

”Pfft!”

Luo Ye couldn’t hold back and burst into laughter.
