The Eternal Phoenix Queen

Eps. 59: Oddity

In the morning, Madam Yin stood in front of Shen Yi's room door. He banged hard with the palm of his hand. Lady Yin was arrogant because her son instead let the woman sleep in his room. All this time, his son was anti-woman. Why could this be?

Inside the room, Feng Shang was standing near the balcony railing. His little smile was on its back as soon as he heard the door bang so hard. Early in the morning Madam Yin had already come to scold her, then Feng Shang replied to her by letting her. She used sleep magic on Shen Yi, making the man sleep a little longer as Madam Yin grew even more annoyed.

Last night, Feng Shang did not sleep too well. Being in the same bed as Shen Yi made her heart always beat faster than usual. He had to make Lady Yin give up and leave this house immediately so that she could go back to sleep in her room as before. But, it seems that this Madam Yin is too persistent.

After an hour had passed, Feng Shang finally opened the door of Shen Yi's room. Madam Yin stood up with a face flushed like a tomato, her expression was truly irritating. With her expressionless flat face, Feng Shang dumbstruck past Madam Yin just like that. Feeling ignored and toyed with, Madam Yin held back Feng Shang's footsteps by gripping his arm.

"Let go!" yelled Feng Shang.

"You think you've made it? Clan Feng, don't ever think you can dominate my son! He was just curious about you to make you stay here! But, you should know that soon you will definitely leave this house!" said Mrs Yin.

"Who are you talking about?"

"Of course you are!"

"Before that happens, I'll make sure you get out of this house first, Madam Yin," Feng Shang replied as he blew off Madam Yin's cheque.

Madam Yin grabbed something from under her nightgown, then handed it to Feng Shang. With a face full of confidence, she then said, "This woman is my son's future wife!"

Feng Shang looked at the beautiful female figure in the photo. He let out a trivial laugh, making Madam Yin a little surprised. This woman should be angry, he thought. Between him and his son something must have happened until their relationship was so close and special. If Feng Shang knew Shen Yi already had a future wife, he should have left here soon, right?

On the contrary, Feng Shang was just acting ordinary, instead laughing at him.

"You think I don't know how many women you sent for him?" ask Feng Shang. He grabbed the photo sheet, then tore it right in front of Madam Yin's eyes.

"Your little trick isn't enough to get me out of here, Mrs Yin."

Madam Yin clenched both her hands in anger. How hard is the woman's heart to not be tested?

Feng Shang walked down the stairs. The destination is currently a flower garden. He wanted to train there for a while before leaving for his office. Arriving there, he saw some flowers that had originally bloomed beautifully were now withered. He frowned, then tried to think about why these flowers could wither overnight. In fact, the spiritual power here was clearly very stable.

Feng Shang then looked at Madam Yin who was standing not far from the entrance of the flower garden. His gaze dived sharply at Madam Yin, who was also looking at him angrily. Madam Yin had not been willing to let go of Feng Shang even though it was still early this morning.

"Have you touched these flowers?" ask Feng Shang.

"Why indeed? This house belongs to my son. This flower garden also belongs to my son. Are you the only one who can get in there?" Madam Yin instead replied to Feng Shang's question with another question.

Feng Shangs eyes slightly widened. No way! It is impossible for these flowers to be withered by Madam Yin!

"What are you guys fighting about?" ask someone.

In the back, Shen Yi stood up with a distinctive face of waking up in her sleep. Her hair was disheveled and her clothes were tangled. I don't know why he slept so long. He woke up to the sound of a debate between his mother and Feng Shang. Though they were noisily in the flower garden, but their voices reached his room.

"Yi'er, you better teach this woman some manners! Or not, you're gonna kick him out right away!" resolute Madam Yin while leaving her son. Shen Yi only sighed lazily.

"Xiao Shang, why is your expression so grim?" tanyakanya.

Feng Shang directly brought Shen Yi in, locked the entrance of the flower garden and closed the curtains. Shen Yi frowned in surprise as well as curiosity. He saw Feng Shang walking in a hurry and was like he was covering something up. If not, it doesn't have to be like this, does it?

"Why do these flowers wither?"

"Your mother did it," Feng Shang replied.

"What do you mean?"

"Flower that grows and blooms with spiritual power will not wither even if it is not watered by water. This flower will only wither if something containing demonic air touches the surface of its leaves or petals" Feng Shang explained. Shen Yi still did not understand.

"You mean, my mom has the devil's air?" ask Shen Yi. Feng Shang did not reply, he himself was unsure.

"Ahaha... Xiao Shang, are you too worried about the demon? My mother was just a normal human being. There's no way he's got the devil. Maybe it's just a coincidence."

Feng Shang really wished this was a coincidence. However, no matter how hard he convinced himself, he still could not believe it. These flowers have spiritual roots, it is impossible to wilt carelessly.

"I hope so, too," said Feng Shang. He then cast his magic to make the flowers bloom again.

"That's it. You rest. I still have to go. Don't be so calculating with my mom. If you want to be angry you can, but don't let him get hurt" said Shen Yi.

"Why?"

"Because he has only one. I can't find her anymore if my mom dies."

Feng Shang again locked the flower garden area after Shen Yi left. He left his body shrouded in a blue light that only a person with spiritual power could see. Meanwhile, Madam Yin only snorted to see Feng Shang sitting like an unemployed in the middle of a flower garden.

"Master, the Main Steward said that over the past few weeks, the Great Mistress has always been the arrival of a guest. The guest was a handsome young monk. They usually talk for a few hours, then meet again one or three days later. Every time she finished meeting, Madam Yin would discuss with you at all times and decide to come here." Zhang Bi explained the information he had obtained from the main administrator of Shen Residence outside Cheng City to Shen Yi.

"Investigate the background of the young monk!"

"Master, I've been investigating. Please look," said Zhang Bi. He handed over some of the information he got to his superiors. Shen Yi instantly saw and read the reports.

Based on the information there, Shen Yi finally found out who the young monk who always met his mother was. He was a monk from a temple on the outskirts of town. The temple was always supplied with food and necessities by the Xiang Company, as the Xiang Family ancestor was once saved by the temple's ancestral monk. Their good relationship has been going on for generations.

It was possible that the monk was the messenger Xiang Sun sent to spy on his family. It is also possible that the monk was sent to influence his mother. Otherwise, it would be impossible for her mother to hate Feng Shang so much before they even met. Xiang Sun wanted to use his mother to get rid of Feng Shang from his side, then he would take Feng Shang from him.

He would never let Xiang Sun's wish come true! After all, forever he would never let Feng Shang off his side! Nor would he let his mother become Xiang Sun's chess piece!

"Investigate my mother's activities for these few days," he ordered Zhang Bi. Zhang Bi nodded. Then, his phone rang. Zhang Bi begged for permission for a while, then returned with a panicked face.

"What's wrong?" ask Shen Yi.

"Master, the main building of Liotao construction collapsed. The loss is nine hundred billion" Zhang Bi replied. The building mentioned by him is a building that will be inaugurated in a few months. How could it collapse?

"In addition, there was a massive employee dismissal at the branch company" added Zhang Bi.

"How come? Did they think I was dead?" shen Yi was angry. Those foolish directors acted as they pleased and stepped over it!

Zhang Bi stared in fear at his superior. If you are already angry, then all the employees in Xize will not be any survivors. Moreover, the problem this time occurred in a row and the company suffered a huge loss. He wasn't sure there would be a tomorrow for him and for everyone at Xize.

"Take the helicopter! I'll take care of them myself!" shen Yi's. Zhang Bi nodded obediently, then ran out to carry out his duties.
