398: I don't like crowded places.
Su Xuan returned to his residence and rested for a bit.
Soon, it was evening.
“Young Master Su! Young Master Su?”
Feng Changxiao’s voice came from outside Su Xuan’s door.
“Father-in-law, what brings you to me?”
Su Xuan pushed open the door, a smile on his face.
“Hehehe, Young Master Su, you truly are a busy man with a short memory! Don’t forget, I told you yesterday!”
“I’ve arranged a banquet at the Feng family residence, specifically to celebrate your arrival!”
Feng Changxiao said cautiously.
Seeing Su Xuan like this, he thought Su Xuan might have regretted it and didn’t want to come!
That wouldn’t do! He had prepared so many things for this banquet, even his wife, who rarely showed herself, had come out.
“Young Master Su, you won’t not come, will you?”
Feng Changxiao asked carefully.
“Hahahaha! Father-in-law, you jest! With such a warm invitation from you, how could I not come?”
“I’ll just get ready now, and then we’ll depart!”
Su Xuan chuckled.
After speaking, Su Xuan went back to change his attire.
The clothes he was wearing today had picked up a lot of Feng Yao’s Qi and scent.
If this got out, and someone with ill intentions discovered it, that wouldn’t be good.
He didn’t care about himself, but Feng Yao might not be so lucky; if any bad rumors spread, Feng Yao might be heartbroken!
“Alas! I am still too gentle!”
Su Xuan couldn’t help but praise himself.
Soon, Su Xuan had changed his clothes.
Dressed in a dark ink brocade robe, with silver thread patterns embroidered on the collar and cuffs, he looked as noble and elegant as a Young Master.
“Young Master Su is truly a handsome man!”
Feng Changxiao felt inferior when he saw Su Xuan dressed like this. How could there be such a handsome person in this world?
His handsomeness even surpassed himself after a fresh bath! Truly remarkable!
“Alas! I must have accumulated good fortune for eight lifetimes! Such a talent would actually take a liking to my two daughters!”
Feng Changxiao now wondered if he was dreaming.
After all, how could an existence like Su Xuan take a liking to his two daughters?
Although they possessed some beauty, they weren't exactly peerless beauties!
Unfortunately, reality is often so fantastical; things you think are impossible to happen, just do!
Everything happened so suddenly, so suddenly that Feng Changxiao found it a bit unbelievable.
“Thank you for the compliment, Father-in-law!”
Su Xuan smiled.
Soon, Su Xuan was led to the venue where the banquet was being held.
Unlike what Su Xuan had imagined, almost everyone from the Feng family had come to this banquet.
Aside from Xiao Chen and Feng Yao, basically all the important figures of the Feng family were here.
Here, Su Xuan also saw a middle-aged man whose Qi was similar to Feng Yao’s. He probably was Feng Yao’s father.
As soon as Su Xuan arrived, everyone in the Feng family immediately focused their gaze on him.
“Young Master Su is so handsome! I wish I could bear his children!”
“What are you thinking! Bear his children! Look at yourself! If anyone’s bearing children, it’s me!”
“Get out of here! You don’t even look in a mirror! How are you better than me?”
Some of the women present almost came to blows over Su Xuan, making the surrounding people incredibly envious.
“If only I could be that popular sometime!”
“Sigh, if you were half as handsome as Young Master Su, you could be too!”
Lord Father, seeing Su Xuan approach, quickly scurried over with an eager expression.
“Young Master Su! I am Lord Father, an Elder of the Feng family! I toast you!”
Lord Father said with a fawning expression.
Looking at this, his unknown number of father-in-laws, Su Xuan suddenly found it a bit amusing.
He wondered if Lord Father would still react this way after finding out he had an affair with Feng Yao.
“So it’s Elder Feng! I’ve heard much about you!”
Su Xuan gave Lord Father a meaningful look, which made Lord Father feel somewhat flattered.
“What does Young Master Su mean by that? Could it be that Young Master Su actually thinks highly of me?”
Lord Father found it a bit hard to believe; was he really that excellent? He had just shown up and was already noticed by Su Xuan!
Thinking of this, Lord Father couldn’t help but straighten his back a bit.
Ever since Feng Yao and Xiao Chen got married, his standing in the Feng family hadn’t been good, and he was often gossiped about.
Of course, there was nothing he could do about it, so Lord Father could only silently endure it.
After all, he couldn’t just kill them all, could he? Everyone was from the Feng family, and harming fellow clansmen would result in the enforcement of family law.
“Hehehehe! Now that I have Young Master Su’s regard, I’d like to see who in the Feng family dares to gossip about me now!”
Lord Father proudly raised his head.
“Father-in-law, I have something to say!”
Su Xuan suddenly spoke.
Feng Changxiao, who was on the side pondering how to curry favor with Su Xuan, didn’t expect Su Xuan to speak first.
In an instant, this Feng family patriarch, who possessed endless prestige in the eyes of outsiders, immediately straightened up.
“Young Master Su, please speak freely! Whatever you command, just tell me!”
Feng Changxiao said with a fawning expression.
He actually wanted to call Su Xuan his son-in-law, but after a night of thought yesterday, he felt that might be a bit presumptuous, so he changed his address.
Of course, Su Xuan certainly didn’t mind, because to him, it was just a title. He didn’t care as long as it wasn’t taking advantage of him or an insult.
“Then I’ll speak frankly!”
Upon hearing this, Feng Changxiao immediately became nervous.
“Actually, I’m not quite satisfied with this banquet!”
Hearing Su Xuan’s words, Feng Changxiao immediately felt a chill down his spine. Was Su Xuan blaming him?
Thinking of this, Feng Changxiao’s legs suddenly felt weak, and he trembled all over.
He began to ponder what he had done wrong to make Su Xuan say such a thing.
“Father-in-law, why are you so nervous? Am I some kind of demon?”
Su Xuan was a bit speechless; he wasn’t going to kill Feng Changxiao, so why was he shaking?
“I’m sorry, Young Master Su, I’m old, and my legs aren’t as nimble as they used to be!”
Feng Changxiao gave a bitter smile, finding a decent excuse for himself. He still couldn’t figure out what he had done wrong.
Seeing this, Su Xuan also stopped beating around the bush. If he didn’t clarify, wouldn’t Feng Changxiao be scared to death by him?
At that time, Feng Xue and Feng Lan would be fatherless, and they would surely despise him.
“Don’t be so nervous. I just want to say that it’s fine to have only a few people at the banquet!”
“I like quiet places. There are too many people here, and I don’t want too many people disturbing me, do you understand?”
