Spring lovers: We who are inseperable

Chapter 66: The one who loved her more than me

In the Feng Mansion

All the members except Feng Kang, who was still in his room, were gathered in the hall. The atmosphere in the hall was tense and dull.

The silence had overtaken the room's presence.

Finally breaking the silence, Feng Jing said, "Can you explain me, what is happening here?" probably annoyed.

Everyone's attention drifted to Feng Jing, especially Feng Shen and Li Lian who did not knew what to say.

"I think it's time, you should know the truth" said Feng Shen with a emotionless voice.

"But Shen-" Li Lian wanted to make her husband stop, but Feng Shen cut her off and gripping her hand he said, "It's Ok, Lian. They should know."

Seeing him all set to answer their questions, Li Lian held herself back and quietly waited for her husband to start.

"It all started when Feng Mian was in her last semester of her college.

She had a bright and cheerful nature, and true to our words, she did not wanted to be in the spotlight or the centre of attention. In her college too she would often distance herself from everyone.

She would often tell us that she would marry someone with a common status and would not be a part of the high society. We were foolish enough to take it as a joke.

Soon, we realized that the girl whom we would dote and pamper on had become mature. And so, Father was very worried about Mian's future.

That's when father decided to arrange a wedding for Mian in a household were, she would live comfortably all her life, secured from any problem.

Also that was the time when our Feng corporation had just entered the competition and was still growing.

So, father decided to keep a proposal for marriage between the us and Li's, as Old Master Li and Father were close due to their tenure in the army. And which was further strengthened by my and Lian's marriage.

And gladly, Old Master Li, accepted the proposal, and so father arranged a marriage between Mian and Li Qiang.

We decided to keep this a secret from Mian who was still in college.

As Feng Mian's birthday was around the corner and collapsed with her graduation day, Father decided to hold a dinner and invited Li Qiang as a guest taking this opportunity to inform Mian about her arranged Marriage.

Father thought that Mian would be very happy about it, but we didn't that this was not a boon but a curse for us. It seemed like not only we but Mian also had a surprise.

On her birthday, she came to us after her graduation party with a piece of news. But father instead paid no heed to her as he was very excited to announce her engagement.

During the dinner, before Father could tell her the news, he got the information from an outsider that Mian had signed a marriage certificate with a commoner.

Hearing this Father became very furious. So furious that he didn't bothered to hear Mian's side of the story. His only concern was the wrath of the Li Family.

At first he didn't say anything, so I thought that he needed some time to think. For two days, Feng Mian and Father did not see each other. Mian also refused to talk to anyone, except father.

Her wish was granted on the third day, when Father called her in her study. Instead of consolation from Father, Main got an order to leave the household.

According to him, as Main had done such a thing, as a price, she had to leave the household. Father also announced that she will not be a part of this family and he also refused to look into the matter of Mian's marriage. He also prohibited any of us from looking into this matter.

And that stupid sister of mine, instead of fighting with Father, left the house without saying anything."

As Feng Shen uttered his last words, tears started to fall from his face.

Li Lian was also crying. Feng Ji ran to his mother and handed her a glass of water. Accepting the glass, Li Lian gradually calmed down.

The silence had once again overtaken the room's atmosphere.

"Then what about Uncle Li?" Feng Jing asked.

"We were very lucky that Li Qiang instead of telling this matter to Old master Li, took the blame on him and asked told Old Master Li that he already had someone he loves who was-"

"Aunt Roulan" Feng Jing completed the sentence for his father.

Nodding Feng Shen wanted to say something when a servant announced, "Old Master is awake."

Listening to this all of them went to Old Master Li's room to check on him.

..

Feng Kang opened his eyes, with a heavy headache and in his view came the white ceiling. Soon he recalled what Madam Wen had said.

'She is dead'

Slowly a tear made it's way through the wrinkled skin of the Old man. Didn't bothering to wipe it, Feng Kang kept looking at the ceiling which was as white as the thoughts in his mind.

Soon a servant entered his room and on seeing that he was awake, the servant closed the door and voices can be heard of him informing others of Feng Kang's situation.

Sensing that the members must be coming, he wiped away his tears and slowly tried to sit up on the bed but he failed to do so. That's when the door opened.

Seeing his wish to sit up, Feng Jing approached his grandfather and helped the elder to sit up.

Nodding at him, Feng Kang noticed the faces of all the members in his family. Their expressions were mixed, relief and guilt.

But instead of talking to them, Feng Kang turned his gaze to look out of the window.

"Father-" Feng Shen was in middle of saying something when suddenly Feng Kang said, " Mian always said that she will marry someone who can take care of her and love her just like me. When she said that I would always feel bad for my daughter, fearing that no one would take care of her more than me and so she would never be married, but I think that I overestimated myself. Maybe the man for whom she defied me must've loved her more than me."

After a pause he said, "Go, find that man who loved her more than me, I think he is the one who told Shaung about Mian's death. Just ask Shaung about him and provide me with an opportunity to repent over the loss of my daughter.

Don't appear in front of me until then. Go!"

Feng Kang said without even baiting an eye at all the men standing in front of him. Because at that time his thoughts were overtaken by his sweet and now dead

DAUGHTER
