Chapter 424: I Am No Longer That Helpless Child

Fan Zhengying glanced at Fan Zhiheng, took a sip of water, and asked, "Elder? Are you worthy of being my elder? We separated a long time ago, and you chose to abandon your children. What do you want to do by coming here now? Do you regret abandoning your son and daughter after you know they had a good life?"

Hearing what he said, Fan Zhiheng felt that Fan Zhengying threw his face to the ground and stepped on it ruthlessly. His face turned red with anger and he pointed at Fan Zhengying with a trembling finger.

"You– You..!"

Fan Zhengying didn’t look at his angry face and said calmly: "You should leave before my second younger brother sees you."

After saying this, Fan Zhengying did not give Fan Zhiheng any chance to speak. He put down the cup and said, "Someone! Come and escort this person out!"

As soon as he finished speaking, two soldiers came in and dragged Fan Zhiheng out of the tent. While struggling, Fan Zhiheng kept shouting: "Unfilial! Fan Zhengying! How dare you treat your paternal uncle like this?! I want to see my son! Fan Zhengying! Let me see my son!"

When Fan Zhiheng’s shouts faded away, Fan Zhengying looked at his younger sister. Being stared at by her elder brother made Fan Zhengyue feel uneasy, but she still smiled calmly.

Couldn’t bear the suffocating silence, she said, "Elder Brother, don’t be angry. I also have no choice. The third uncle kept calling my second elder brother’s name in front of the gate. I brought him in just to save the reputation of my second elder brother. It would not be good for him if the third uncle said that he was unfilial every day and tarnished his reputation."

Fan Zhengying didn’t speak for a long time before asking calmly: "What did you talk about with him?"

When asked by her elder brother, Fan Zhengyue held her hands covered by her sleeves tightly. As an aristocratic lady, she has been trained since she was a child to smile on all occasions.

At this time, Fan Zhengyue put a smile on her face and said, "The third paternal uncle only asked about Xue’er and my second elder brother. He wanted to know how their life was and whether they had enough food or not."

Hearing what she said, Fan Zhengying snorted and said, "He is really shameless. I didn’t expect that he would ask this after abandoning his children."

After saying that, he glanced at his younger sister and said, "You should just stay here obediently. If he comes to find you again, just ignore him."

Seeing that he was about to leave, Fan Zhengyue quickly asked, "Elder Brother, do you agree to let me stay?"

Fan Zhengying looked at her for a while and said, "Only until I send Fan Zhiheng away. After I drive him away, I will send you back to the hidden village. You’d better not cause me any trouble while you stay here."

Hearing what he said, Fan Zhengyue smiled and said, "Thank you, Elder Brother."

Looking at her smiling face, Fan Zhengying sighed and walked out of the tent. He looked at the two soldiers guarding the tent and said in a low voice: "She must not be allowed to leave the tent without my permission."

The soldiers clasped their fists and said, "Yes, General."

Inside the tent, Fan Zhengyue took out a piece of paper from her waist belt. She opened the paper and read it carefully. After a while, she smiled and burned the paper.

As she watched coldly when the paper slowly swallowed by the fire, the corners of her lips also slowly raised. When the paper completely turned into ashes, the once beautiful face was already covered with a hideous smile filled with hatred.

In the next few days, Fan Zhengying was very busy preventing Fan Zhiheng from meeting Fan Zhengyin and Fan Zhengxue. On the fourth day, Fan Zhengyin finally heard the news about Fan Zhiheng. Hearing that his father was here again today, Fan Zhengyin walked calmly towards the entrance of the military camp.

When Fan Zhiheng saw him coming, he pointed at him and shouted angrily: "Unfilial son! My life is really bitter! How could I give birth to an unfilial son like you?!"

Fan Zhengying glared at his third paternal uncle and shouted, "Shut up! You still have the nerve to say that my second younger brother is unfilial? Do you think you are a good father?"

After saying that, he quickly walked up to Fan Zhengyin and said, "Second Younger Brother, why are you here?"

Seeing his anxious expression, Fan Zhengyin smiled and asked calmly: "Elder Brother, how long are you planning to keep this matter as secret from me?"

Although his original intention was good, Fan Zhengying knew that it was wrong for him to conceal this matter from his second younger brother. He glanced at Fan Zhiheng and wanted to sew his mouth shut.

Noticing the way his elder brother looked at his father, Fan Zhengyin smiled and said, "Elder Brother, I want to talk to him."

Hearing what he said, Fan Zhengying frowned and said, "Er Lang, just ignore him. I will send him away and I won’t let him disturb you and Xue’er anymore."

Fan Zhengyin shook his head and said calmly: "Elder Brother, I want to ask him about my mother. I need to talk to him."

Looking at Fan Zhengyin’s calm expression, Fan Zhengying was silent for a moment, nodded and said, "All right. If you need me, just send someone to call me. As long as your elder brother is here, he won’t be able to touch you and Xue’er anymore."

Fan Zhengyin chuckled and said, "Elder Brother, I am no longer that helpless child. Don’t worry. You go to eat first."

Fan Zhengying saw that his second younger brother really didn’t need him, so he nodded and reluctantly went to have lunch. After his elder brother left, Fan Zhengyin walked to the door and said, "Open the gate."
