I Am Feng Tianyi 2
He's Feng Tianyi?! Of all people, why did she have to get involved with Feng Tianyi? Conflicting emotions washed through her as she tried to digest this revelation on Qin Jiran's part.
She stepped back in disbelief, one hand clenching against her chest. This was a lot to take even for someone like her, who'd always try to see the rational side of everything.
Did she feel betrayed? Not really, but she was curious how Feng Tianyi managed to fool her this far. She should have been suspicious when he offered the investment for the Tang Enterprise out of the blue.
"Moyu…" She heard Qin Jiran call her name.
No… she corrected herself. This man was the infamous devil of Shenzhen she'd been hearing about when she joined Feng Conglomerate. She hadn't had a chance to meet Feng Tianyi back in her days at Feng Conglomerate even though he was part of the board.
As the firstborn son of the Feng family, it was expected that he would succeed their father, but none of them had anticipated that the family business would fall to the younger Feng. Feng Tianyi didn't even bother to show himself at Master Feng's funeral out of spite for his father's betrayal.
At the time, Tang Moyu somehow could understand his predicament. She would surely feel the same if her own father betrayed her like that, but since she was Feng Tianhua's fiancée, she didn't make any effort to meet him.
There was this one time, she almost met him when she heard Feng Tianyi had come to Feng Conglomerate to confront his younger brother. Tang Moyu was only able to see him from behind and hadn't had a good chance to see his face.
But now as she looked at Qin Jiran, face to face... She couldn't help but notice the irony of the situation she was in. She'd been trying her best not to get involved with the Feng family, but look at what she'd done!
She had willingly let the devil enter her home and enchant her and her children. What had she done? Feng Tianyi had been called 'the devil' for a reason and every favor he granted came with a high price.
"You.. all this time, you knew who I was… then tell me why you offered that deal."
The devil was famous because of the peculiar deals he had with people. The other party would get what he wanted but the price to pay the devil would be outrageous. Since she made a deal with the devil, would this mean she'd also fallen into his trap?
Feng Tianyi hardened his jaws and refused to break their eye contact. He wanted her to understand that he meant no harm towards her and her little buns.
Out of curiosity? Tang Moyu wanted to laugh at that. What was so interesting about her that intrigued the devil?
"What about meeting my children at the cafeteria? Did you plan on meeting me through them?" She questioned him, narrowing her eyes at the thought of Feng Tianyi using her children to fool her.
"No, of course not, Moyu. I didn't think that they were yours in the first place. You couldn't imagine my shock when you stood right outside my door that night."
That was one of the moments that Feng Tianyi would never forget in this lifetime. Meeting her two little buns was truly a fateful encounter on his part.
He admitted though, that after he met her, Feng Tianyi was curious to know the extent of her capabilities. She needed a good push to acquire the Tang Enterprise from her own family and he only offered a proposition that would benefit both of them.
Aside from that, he could already imagine Feng Tianhua's annoyance and irritation once he found out about his involvement in the sudden rise of the fallen empress. Didn't his dear little brother do all he could to destroy Tang Moyu? He used all his connections and blacklisted her in Shenzhen, effectively making her an outcast in the business community.
Feng Tianhua had been arrogant ever since he took over Feng Conglomerate, and with Tang Moyu's help, he had risen his status within the community. However, Feng Tianyi knew that his brother would feel threatened by the rising popularity of the empress too, this was why he extended a hand to help her to get leverage.
"Moyu, I have no ill intent in that deal with you. The deal was supposed to be beneficial to both of us, not to entrap you with lies. The Qin Jiran you've known from the start is also the same person as Feng Tianyi. If you could only see me as Qin Jiran and not accept me as Feng Tianyi... " He shook his head and pursed his lips together. "Then you're truly not ready to see pass my mask."
"I would understand if you wouldn't like me after this… if you feel like I betrayed your trust. But I swear, that truly wasn't my intention in getting closer to you."
Taking a deep calming breath, he opened his eyes again and faced the impassive empress who'd been silently looking at him blankly. He couldn't even fathom what was going on in her mind at the moment.
"Moyu, I'm not expecting you to immediately give me a definite answer, but please give me a chance to prove myself to you."
