The Eternal Phoenix Queen

Eps. 8: The Family

In the middle of Cheng City, precisely in a magnificent building like a king's palace, a sixty-year-old old grandfather swooped his staff to the floor many times. In front of him, many people gathered with their heads down, not daring to lift their heads or just move to scratch the itchy skin.

The old man was furious. Everyone in the house did not dare to interrupt because his anger was able to make the whole house like hell. The grandfather stared angrily at all his grandchildren, whom he looked at one by one.

“How many days is it? Why is my grandson still unaccounted for, huh? Are you guys really working properly, or deliberately delaying my grandchild's search time? See how I ruined your lives if my granddaughter doesn't make it!”

Feng Zheng, the head of the Feng Family as well as the founder of the Lingjing Company had already been furious these few days. His favorite grandson who had just returned home from a business trip from abroad was lost without a trace. The ship that brought him home was rumored to have suffered a shock due to the waves and that's when his favorite grandson disappeared.

Feng Zheng exerted all his people to search for the whereabouts of his grandson alive or dead. Feng Zheng loved his granddaughter so much because she was the smartest and most talented person, and so gentle and considerate.

His son, Feng Gun, died in a tragic accident with his wife fifteen years ago. The only survivor was his daughter, who happened to be curled up in his mother's arms when the accident happened. Ever since that incident, Feng Zheng had become very considerate and doting on him so much. Unmitigated, Feng Zheng had to pay a huge fee to send him to study at an overseas business school.

“Do you envy him because I made him heir, huh? Do you want to make me die sooner?”

That cruel question no one dared to answer. All the members of the Feng Family and all the officers were powerless to resist or dared to resist the anger of the head of the family. His age was old, but his authority and decisiveness far exceeded that of a young person.

The gripping atmosphere in the room ended when senior employee Feng Zheng came along with a young man in a neatly dressed small stature. Bai Zhu, senior employee Feng Zheng reported that this young man knew where his favorite grandson was. Immediately Feng Zheng let the young man sit on the chair without heeding his family members who were still kneeling.

“You said you knew my grandson's whereabouts? Quickly tell me, where is he? Is he still alive. No, even if he dies, I have to find his body!” feng Zheng's frown impatiently. The young man nodded.

“I've seen a woman whose face resembles that of a grandson in my office. I don't know if it's true or not, so I ventured to come and tell Mr.”.

“Which office do you work in?” asked Feng Zheng.

“Xize Company, Mr.”

Feng Zheng flinched for a moment. I don't know what he's thinking, no one knows for sure. After being silent for a while, Feng Zheng then said, “Alright. Bai Zhu, sneak the car. We'll be there now.”

Bai Zhu nodded and said ‘siap’. After that, he told the young man to come with him. Before leaving, Feng Zheng first said to all of his family members firmly.

“Wait until my grandson returns, I will make the calculation with you guys!”

...***...

“Master, Chairman Feng of Lingjing Company came to see Mr.” said Zhang Bi.

Shen Yi who was focused on signing the document paused her activities. The smile on his lips was small as a sneer, but he lowered his head until Zhang Bi did not see that his superior was smiling. Shen Yi did not expect that today would be a different day.

“This fast? Let him in,” he said later.

A few minutes later, Feng Zheng walked in accompanied by Zhang Bi. Shen Yi greeted him kindly and the typical smile of a president as she often displayed when meeting with clients or potential partners. Feng Zheng, that sixty-year-old grandfather still looked fit despite his age.

Feng Zheng and Shen Yi sat face to face. Shen Yi knew the intent of this person coming here. A few days ago when he brought Feng Shang here, there was an employee who said that he seemed to have seen that woman somewhere. If it was synchronized with the information from Zhang Bi, it was likely that the information was true.

“President Shen, I spoke directly to the point only. Is it true that President Shen found my lost grandson?” asked Feng Zheng to the point.

Shen Yi liked her non-nonsense style of speech. No wonder the entire Feng Family members were afraid and did not dare to go against him. Feng Zheng though was old but could still make the people around him afraid. This was the style of leader Shen Yi liked. It was people like Feng Zheng who were usually the most honest and open.

“May I know what your grandson's name is, Chairman Feng?”

“Feng Shangyue.”

“Sorry. I don't know who Feng Shangyue.” is

Feng Zheng sighed. That young man couldn't possibly lie to her, right? Or, it was President Shen who deliberately played him? But this is not something that can be played around. Despite having to tear apart the Xize Company and go to jail, Feng Zheng had to still find his grandson.

“But, don't know if the woman I found is your granddaughter or not. Zhang Bi, bring him here.”

Zhang Bi walked out, then came back five minutes later with Feng Shang. Looking at Feng Shang, Feng Zheng immediately stood up, then walked over to the confused Feng Shang. Feng Shang was sleeping in the pantry, but suddenly Zhang Bi woke up and was brought here.

“Shang’er! Geez, my grandson is really alive!”

Feng Zheng directly hugged Feng Shang, making the woman swerve instantly. How dare this old man embrace the Heavenly Empress! Feng Shang stared questioningly at Shen Yi, the man just replied to her with a annoying little grin. It further aggravated Feng Shang's confusion.

“Old grandfather, why are you hugging me?”

Feng Zheng was surprised instead of playing. He took off his embrace, watching Feng Shangs face intently. Right, this is his grandson. His face and height are the same. Perplexed by that, Feng Zheng turned his gaze to Shen Yi, hoping that the man could give her an explanation.

“Your grandson has lost his memory ever since I found him on Yonghe Island. Chairman, it's only natural that he doesn't recognize you,” explains Shen Yi. His explanation made Feng Zheng lament, “My poor grandson!”

Feng Shang still did not understand even until Feng Zheng brought him over from Shen Yi's office. From the glass window of his office, Shen Yi watched as Feng Shang slowly disappeared along with the rapid pace of the car. As expected, Feng Shang was really the granddaughter of the Feng Family, a great miss Feng who was rumored to be missing on the way home after running a business.

“Master, Miss Feng is gone. What will you do now?” ask Zhang Bi.

Shen Yi only fell silent for a moment. I don't know why his mind was dead for a moment. While continuing to look out, he then replied, “Run as planned only.”

...Ehhh it turns out uh... He's the conglomerate's grandson! ...

...Fellow conglomerates, how will his life in the future? ...
