At dusk, during dinner in the small courtyard, Jiang Feng noticed Wang Xiumei being more attentive to him than before, constantly adding food to his bowl, and frequently trying to strike up a conversation with him while lavishly praising how exceptional Liu Shiyuan has been since childhood.
Jiang Feng didn't think much about it, assuming that his contributions to the family had instilled greater gratitude in her, which made her more courteous.
After dinner, Huang He, after a simple bandage at the county hospital, personally brought the construction team. He intended to demolish the old house and build a new building for the two elders and personally escort them along with the Liu Yunping couple to stay at a hotel.
Jiang Feng was already immune to Huang He's flattering demeanor. Seeing him settling the two elders of the Liu Family and the Liu Yunping couple, he felt relieved.
Before leaving, Jiang Feng left his phone number with Liu Yunping, telling him to call if needed, then departed with Liu Shiyuan.
By then, it was getting dark, and not heading back soon would mean missing the last bus to the city.
On the last bus, Liu Shiyuan seemed distracted since she got on. Her face was red and warm, and she dared not look at Jiang Feng, only shyly gazing out the window.
Although Liu Shiyuan is simple in character, it does not mean her emotions are not delicate. Especially since her own mother has urged her twice, staying calm at this point was nearly impossible.
But the issue was, she couldn't bring herself to take certain actions; she didn't want Jiang Feng to think she was a manipulative girl who should not be taken seriously.
"Brother Jiang, can I ask you a question?" After mustering up her courage for a long time, Liu Shiyuan suddenly turned her head to gaze at Jiang Feng inquiringly.
"What is it?" Jiang Feng could tell Liu Shiyuan was troubled, so he asked.
"What kind of girls do you like?" Once she asked, Liu Shiyuan's face resembled the sunset, glowing even redder, but her eyes were clear, showing great anticipation.
Jiang Feng was taken aback, not expecting Liu Shiyuan to ask such a question. He thought for a moment and said, "What kind of liking do you mean?"
"I mean... admiration! Being moved by someone!" Liu Shiyuan hinted.
Jiang Feng contemplated for a moment and said, "In terms of admiration, among you three at home, I admire each one of you."
"Three?" Liu Shiyuan was taken aback.
"Yes. Qingcheng is responsible, cold on the outside but warm inside, kind-hearted, and capable. She's a girl that inspires a protective feeling." Jiang Feng honestly expressed his opinion of Nangong Qingcheng.
Liu Shiyuan listened quietly, paying close attention.
"As for Fei'er, she's a pitiable person. Outwardly, she seems carefree and casual, but she actually knows warmth and coldness. Being an optimist is her strength but also her facade. Although she occasionally displays some spoiled temper, her merits overshadow her flaws; she remains worthy of cherishing." Jiang Feng continued with his view of Chu Feifei.
Liu Shiyuan's heart raced, her cheeks turning hot and red, as she realized that Jiang Feng was about to evaluate her.
"As for you," Jiang Feng turned his head and looked at Liu Shiyuan, "you are also a remarkably good girl. Your character is pure, and you possess innate kindness, are filial and sensible, which is rare in today's materialistic society."
Jiang Feng didn't comment on their appearances but instead thoroughly analyzed each of their personalities.
But this was not the answer Liu Shiyuan wanted to hear. She knew the strengths of herself, Nangong Qingcheng, and Chu Feifei, but she wished to know Jiang Feng's expectations for a romantic partner. Instead, Jiang Feng's answer led to the joking consideration of marrying all three, which seemed impossible.
However, as soon as this exaggerated thought crossed her mind, Liu Shiyuan was shocked to find she didn't resist the idea at all!
...
The bus arrived back at West City, and upon entering the station, the sky had turned completely dark.
As Jiang Feng and Liu Shiyuan emerged from the station, they were greeted by the sight of more than a dozen luxury cars lined up impressively, forming a spectacular display!
These luxury cars were all Cadillac CTS models, and standing in front of them were dozens of people, among whom a stunningly unique beauty stood out, waiting patiently for Jiang Feng and Liu Shiyuan to emerge.
"Brother Jiang..."
Liu Shiyuan appeared somewhat fearful, guessing they might be from the Fengyu Group, possibly coming to trouble her and Jiang Feng.
"Don't panic." Jiang Feng said expressionlessly, striding forward.
In front, Feng Yueji led the elite group of executives from Fengyu Group, who approached Jiang Feng with a strong sense of apology. As soon as they arrived, she said, "Mr. Jiang, I'm very sorry. My subordinates were not strictly managed, causing you trouble."
"You??"
Hearing this address, Liu Shiyuan was startled, then gazed at Jiang Feng in disbelief!
Simultaneously, a deathly pale Qiu Jianbo followed behind Feng Yueji, overwhelmed with fear.
Jiang Feng remained expressionless as he calmly asked, "President Feng, was that Huang He really one of your subordinates?"
"No," Feng Yueji shook her head, "Our Fengyu Group ceased all black loan-related businesses a long time ago. It was the development department manager, Qiu Jianbo, who secretly opened the door for Huang He, unbeknownst to me. If it weren't for this encounter with Mr. Jiang today, I would not have discovered their corruption. I must thank Mr. Jiang for unveiling these two parasites for me."
After she spoke, Feng Yueji glared coldly at Jiang Feng and Qiu Jianbo.
Startled, Qiu Jianbo hurriedly approached Jiang Feng nervously and said, "Mr. Jiang, I sincerely apologize. It was my pursuit of petty profits and my condonation of Huang He. I have already resigned and hope you can overlook my mistakes. I was disrespectful to you over the phone before; I hope... I hope you can be magnanimous..."
Liu Shiyuan stood aside, completely stunned. She never imagined that the legendary beauty president of Fengyu Group had come with her team to apologize and had also dismissed a development department manager over their family matter!
She couldn't describe the powerful impression Jiang Feng left on her!
However, the beautiful female president in front of her, the Wu Zetian of West City, indeed exceeded ordinary women in both looks and aura.
Now, seeing even such a legendary beauty showing deep respect to Jiang Feng, Liu Shiyuan instantly felt embarrassed about the words and fantasies she held about Jiang Feng earlier on the bus!
Listening to Feng Yueji and Qiu Jianbo's words, Jiang Feng understood the entire situation.
No wonder. He initially doubted how Fengyu Group could harbor scum like Huang He. It turned out to be a façade; thankfully, Feng Yueji clarified everything, or he would've misunderstood Fengyu Group.
"President Feng, you're too kind. The Liu Family Village matter is already resolved; there's no need for you to come in person." Jiang Feng replied calmly.
"It's only right; Yueji mentioned long ago that Mr. Jiang is an honored guest of our Fengyu Group, so naturally, we wouldn't dare neglect you. However, Mr. Jiang, Yueji has another matter to privately discuss with you; may I ask if you can spare some time for a chat at my place?"
Feng Yueji's beautiful eyes ardently gazed at Jiang Feng, extending the invitation unexpectedly.
