Chapter 1045: A Wake-up Call

“Ah, no…” Zhou Weiqi pointed at Jiang Yao, then at the distance between him and Lu Xingzhi. Lu Xingzhi looked as though he wanted the man to get out of his face, so Zhou Weiqi chose to swallow his grievances and move ten centimeters away from his third brother.

It did not matter if they were close to each other; they were still of the same sex. His third brother did not like anyone to get so close to him, except for his wife.

After Zhou Weiqi moved away, Lu Xingzhi told him about the two reports. Then, he told them about the three conditions that he had given the Chen family.

After Zhou Weiqi heard that, he snorted several times. “Chen Feitang must have a problem with her brain. She did things to harm others without even benefiting herself. She did those things even though she knew that you would find out about it. Did she do that to disgust you? Also, what right does that woman have to say that she hates you and Jiang Yao? No one forced her to like you. Just because she fancies someone, that person has to like her too? Is that even logical?”

“Was she thinking rationally when she did all those things?”

Did she not think about the outcome when she did them? Perhaps she did not care about the consequences if she could achieve that result?

Jiang Yao was worried about something else.

“Chen Feitang’s mentality is very dangerous. Will she do something to harm her family and the Liang family under cover of her self-righteous revenge? She is the Chen family’s only promising grandchild; Old Master Chen valued her and groomed her for the future. It’s something that everyone knows., so everyone respects her. She may use that connection to harm you and your brothers. Furthermore, she’s a sneak; how will you guard against her?”

“She doesn’t have the guts to do that,” Lu Xingzhi said confidently. “If she had the guts, she wouldn’t have only asked Wang Quansheng to write a letter for the report. Furthermore, she has done a lot of wrongs recently. Old Master Chen will definitely send someone to keep an eye on her in the future. Since the Chen family had lost Wang Quansheng as a junior, Old Master Chen will definitely not give Chen Feitang so much power. He’ll keep an eye on her and won’t give her a chance to do those things again.”

Lu Xingzhi was sure of that. That was why he wanted Wang Quansheng to leave the army next year. He knew that he was a good person, and he might achieve more in a few years. Wang Quansheng’s discharge from the military would be a significant loss to the Chen family. Otherwise, Wang Quansheng’s position and power would rise annually with his own ability and the Chen family’s help.

Unfortunately, Chen Feitang had managed to trick Wang Quansheng; they could only blame the young man’s bad luck. He was too young and too obedient to the Chen family. Someone more mature or prudent would know to wait to ask Old Master Chen’s opinion before they did anything like that.

After all, it was pretty strange to report such a thing about Lu Xingzhi., Unfortunately, Wang Quansheng was too young, and he lacked experience. Therefore, he fell for Chen Feitang’s trick.

The Chen family lost Wang Quansheng because of what Chen Feitang did; it was their wake-up call.
