Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1054: Chapter 620: Kindred Spirits?

Feng Tianzhi squinted at Ye Xuan, the corner of his lips slightly raised, ”As the original leader of Team A, you shouldn’t be part of Fierce Tiger’s operation. It’s exceptional that you’re accompanying us. Yet you keep opposing me, is that appropriate?”

Ye Xuan snorted lightly, ”A will also needs a demonstration. Do you think everyone’s a fool? Moreover...” He paused, ”The will shouldn’t be privately read before the mission is completed, you’re aware of that, right?”

”There are exceptions to everything. It’s everyone’s first major mission, I’m willing to demonstrate personally as the leader, is that not allowed?” Feng Tianzhi looked at him with amusement, ”Ye Xuan, what I’m being frank about is my own will, does this violate the rules as well?”

”If you think it’s appropriate, go ahead and read it.” Ye Xuan turned his head away, unwilling to engage further. Compete in madness? He’d surely fall short. Since he’s accompanying Fierce Tiger, he’s mentally prepared for anything, as long as he can help Ye’er, protect Ye’er, everything else he can tolerate.

Even if Feng Tianzhi intentionally humiliates him, it’s okay!

Feng Tianzhi leisurely opened the letter, clearing his throat, ”Truth be told, there’s not really a need for a demonstration, but considering all of you are facing this for the first time, it’s inevitable to make some mistakes in panic.

Just as Mayor Ye stated, the will can’t be made public without permission. Of course, if the person involved volunteers, that’s an exception. As the leader, I’ll make a sacrifice this time, everyone listen carefully, and compare with what you’ve written yourselves.....”

Everyone knows the cause of the rivalry between Ye and Feng, so the team members can’t help but glance at Luo Ye from time to time.

If Luo Ye, as a team member, stood up to stop it now, today’s conflict would surely become a joke. Yet knowing Feng Tianzhi’s personality, her involvement is inevitable in the content ahead, reluctantly, she went to the restroom. Xing Nong and Yaoguang exchanged a glance and hurriedly followed her.

Feng Tianzhi glanced at Luo Ye’s retreating figure, continuing to read.

Ye Xuan couldn’t bear it anymore, snatched it away, ”Alright, we know you’re a madman, but sometimes, you need to think more for others.”

Feng Tianzhi squinted his eyes, sizing up Ye Xuan, ”You’ve truly changed, but it’s also made you more like a man, hmm....., you finally have some qualifications to be my rival.”

The team members twitched at the corners of their mouths, speaking bluntly that Ye Xuan doesn’t resemble a man, presumably only Feng Tianzhi dares to say that.

”Let’s talk.” Ye Xuan said, standing up, heading to the small room, seeing Feng Tianzhi not moving, he turned back to him, ”If you’re scared, just assume I said nothing.”

”Trying to provoke me? Don’t forget, you’re merely accompanying the team, while I’m the leader of Fierce Tiger. Leaving at will, is that the way of a leader?” Feng Tianzhi said and stood up, clapped his hands at the crowd, ”Supplement your wills.... ”Seeing a few team members turn pale, his tone shifted, ”Of course, don’t be burdened psychologically, this matter is more routine. As you participate in larger missions, you’ll understand.

Since I’ve brought you out, I’ll certainly bring everyone back safely. But what’s necessary has to be done, complete them and hand them to Luo Ye, if there’s anything, knock on the door of the small room.”

”Say what you want, let’s have an open talk today.” Once inside and seated in the small room, Feng Tianzhi’s demeanor turned serious, not the playful one outside.

”That’s exactly what I intended.” Ye Xuan looked at him seriously, ”My wife can only be Luo Ye, this will never change. Your kindness to Ye’er, I’ve seen it all.

I must admit, foresight in everything is my biggest flaw. However, from now on, I won’t make mistakes. Coming here this time represents my determination.

The reason for discussing this with you seriously is because I think you’re indeed a respectable opponent. However, I don’t want our fight to affect Ye’er.

Just like earlier, if you read aloud those words in front of so many, how would she, as the vice leader of Fierce Tiger, react? Have you thought about her?”

”Ye Xuan, you’re too self-righteous.” Feng Tianzhi sighed lightly, ”Since knowing Ye’er, or more accurately, since liking her, when have I made her embarrassed?

Any action she doesn’t like, I’ve avoided. On the contrary, the ones causing her harm have always been you. What did you do about Qiao Xiaowan’s affair, your mother’s involvement, Qiao Xiaowan’s mother’s aggressive pressuring?

You really think I’d harm her at today’s event? My actions are just creating opportunities for you. Saying this, you might think I’m joking. But...” Feng Tianzhi smiled bitterly, ”Truly loving someone isn’t fully possessing them.

These days, Ye’er’s unhappiness has made me heartbroken, so I investigated a bit and found you again let another woman hurt her.

But knowing her for so long, I understand her personality clearly, her feelings for you aren’t something that can be easily let go. Furthermore, I won’t take advantage of her vulnerability, even if I were to snatch her away, it would be openly.

During times like this, what I should do is help her resolve her emotional issues, not have her come to me in her lowest emotional state. Ye Xuan, let me ask, can you do what I’m doing?”

The small room fell into a deathly silence.

At this moment, Ye Xuan’s emotions were very complicated, never thought Feng Tianzhi would have such a magnanimous personality.

Previously, even knowing Feng Tianzhi pursued Ye’er like a gentleman, he thought it was just to leave a good impression.

But now, he suddenly understood that he had always misunderstood Feng Tianzhi.

Feng Tianzhi’s personality is indeed somewhat extreme, but precisely this extremeness has accomplished his genuine love.

For the person he likes, he will persist at all costs.

For the person he doesn’t like, he will also persist at all costs.

It’s just that the direction of persistence is different.

He asked himself, some persistence he might not be able to achieve.

Who can truly bring happiness to Ye’er? For the first time, he doubted himself.

This doubt is not meant to let go.

Just as Feng Tianzhi said, loving someone doesn’t necessarily mean possessing them; making the other person happy and joyful is most important.

From the first moment he saw Luo Ye, a thought emerged in his mind; she would be his wife in the future. At that time, he was startled by his own thoughts and felt quite shameless, given that Luo Ye was only fifteen then.

However, ever since that thought emerged, it grew uncontrollably.

At that time, as the vice-captain of Team A, he couldn’t help but keep running to Island City, though some tasks in Island City didn’t require his presence. Fortunately, Jiang Zheng also wanted this good thing to happen, which is why he acceded to all his requests.

This time, it was again with Jiang Zheng’s assistance that he was able to accompany so smoothly, even having the privilege to travel with Fierce Tiger without being led by Feng Tianzhi, allowing him to freely decide whom to take action with.

This was essentially creating opportunities for him and Luo Ye!

Originally, he was quite pleased with such a rule; now, he felt somewhat indifferent.

Feng Tianzhi stared at Ye Xuan for a long time before speaking, ”Can’t be done, right?”

”Hmm?” Ye Xuan was snapped out of his chaotic thoughts, reflexively questioning, followed by a bitter smile, ”No, I’m just reflecting on myself, and suddenly feel, compared to you, I seem to be...”

Feng Tianzhi picked up the thread, ”Seem a bit too selfish?”

”Yes!” Ye Xuan nodded readily, ”That’s exactly what I think.”

”If it weren’t for the two families’ lingering issues, perhaps we could be friends...” Feng Tianzhi paused and added, ”I must admit, you’re a straightforward man.

No matter what, the relationship between you and Luo Ye was agreed upon by both families. No matter how good I treat her, it’s still without a proper title. Under such circumstances, the fact that you can think like this makes Little Ye’er’s deep affection for you worthwhile.

But Ye Xuan, I still say the same, I won’t give up pursuing Little Ye’er, never...” He sighed heavily, ”Aren’t I also a contradiction combined?

I like her, yet don’t want to force her, let her go, and yet can’t do it, my dilemma lets her be in a predicament as well. When in this world was there truly someone who could see things clearly?”

”I agree with you; if it weren’t for the two families’ lingering issues, we could be friends. Comparatively, your personality is quite different from the rumors, if there’s an opportunity, I really would like to collaborate with you more.” Ye Xuan smiled bitterly, ”If someone sees us now, they’d probably think there’s something wrong with our heads.”

”Why care what others think?” Feng Tianzhi looked at Ye Xuan contemptuously, ”You so-called upright gentlemen, the biggest problem is always caring about what others think and see, let me ask, is your life fulfilled by others?

What I can’t stand most is this point; things that can be solved very well suddenly require lots of consideration of others’ opinions, finally, a very simple matter becomes complicated.

Think carefully; isn’t the reason for the ups and downs in your and Little Ye’er’s relationship stemming from this problem of yours? If you could straightforwardly handle your own issues, would there be so many people coming to provoke?”

”Alright, I understand.” Ye Xuan smiled wryly, unexpectedly his simple words led to a long speech from the other side, now he was managing to understand Feng Tianzhi’s personality somewhat.

His madness was merely his protective color.

When truly facing issues, he is more serious than anyone.

Of course, he also knew, when truly facing competition, the other side would absolutely show no mercy.

Or perhaps meeting such an opponent is a kind of blessing.
