Chapter Fifty-six: The Zhang Family

  And the four people beside him were two couples, if Xiao Yufeng was here, he would be extremely surprised, because one of the two couples was actually the couple who helped them when Xiao Yufeng and Zhan Fei were in their most difficult time. The old man on the hospital bed made a hoarse voice: "How are they doing?"

  The couple naturally knew what the old man was asking about, and that dignified-looking middle-aged man with a straight face also spoke up: "Old sir, they're doing very well, nothing's happened to them, their kid is in college now, quite impressive."

  Upon hearing the middle-aged man's words, an old man also showed a hint of comfort on his face. At this time, another woman spoke up: "Dad, why don't we bring Xiao Fei back home?"

  This woman has a few similarities with Zhan Fei, she is Zhan Fei's aunt, Zhan Yu! The man beside Zhan Yu is her husband, Zheng Qiu. Nowadays, the Zhan family can be said to have declined.

  The old man on the sickbed, named Zhan Kuangren, was one of the top five figures in the military circles of Huaxia. Of course, that was when he was in good health. The Zhan family was also at its peak in the entire capital city. Originally, Zhan Kuangren had a son and a daughter, his son named Zhan Feng and his daughter named Zhan Yu, both children were extremely excellent.

  Zhan Feng has a momentum that surpasses his father, and Zhan Yu is also a strong and capable woman who can hold her own. Following the normal course of development, both Zhan Feng and Zhan Yu will enter the political or military arena under the arrangement of Old Master Zhan, and with their own abilities and resources from their parents, they will gradually become the new pillars of the Zhan family.

  It's just that Zhang Jia's luck wasn't very good, perhaps it was because Zhang Feng was too excellent. During his university days, he had already improved the military boxing once and promoted it to the entire army, and slightly used his father's privilege to participate in various competitions such as hand-to-hand combat, shooting, and military performances held within the army, all of which he won several championships and runner-ups.

  Zhan Feng, although still in school at the time, had a reputation that was extremely loud among all military personnel. What Zhan Feng did was also a preparation for him to join the army and become a member of the Tiger General. Everyone knew that once he entered the army, it would be like a dragon entering the sea, unstoppable.

  Such a display of wealth also made many political enemies jealous, and the straightforward and hot-tempered Xuan was not one to tolerate even a speck of dust in his eyes. Naturally, he had offended quite a few people, including the Zhao family from the capital, who were far inferior to the Xuan family.

  The head of the Zhao family was a high-ranking official. Originally, the Zhao family had been entrenched in Huaiyang Province and were like local emperors there. However, old man Zhao's luck wasn't good, and just as he was getting on in years, he got promoted again and became an imperial official.

  Of course, in the capital city, Old Man Zhao is no longer the original local emperor. Here, there are many people who can crush the Zhao family with one hand. Old Man Zhao has kept a low profile, but his son still treats the capital as if it were Huaiyang Province, and continues to act wildly and tyrannically.

  One time, Zhao's son accidentally offended Zhan Kuangren. At that time, Zhan Kuangren had just heard from Zhan Feng that he already had a girlfriend in college and had even gotten her pregnant by mistake. Zhan Kuangren was in an extremely good mood and did not severely punish Zhao's young son, merely ordering his guards to whip him severely with a lash.

  Who would have thought that Zhao's young master was harboring a grudge, still thinking he was in Huaiyang Province. In his rage, he spent a huge sum of money to hire an internationally renowned assassin organization to kill Xuan Kuangren, Xuan Feng and Xuan Yu, all members of the Xuan family.

  The Zhan family has stood tall in the capital for decades, and the energy of the Zhan family is extremely strong. Therefore, although the wind of the Zhan family is very powerful, no one dares to lay a hand on it, because they know that this will bring about the crazy revenge of the Zhan family. As long as the master of the Zhan family has not fallen, they do not dare to make a move.

  But Zhao's son was simply a brainless rich kid, so he didn't care about that. The assassin he sent to attack Xian Kuang was naturally caught by Xian Kuang's guards, and at the time, Xian Yu was also with his father, surrounded by guards who took action, so nothing happened.

  Only Wei Feng, at that time was alone by himself, that day he was in a good mood, his girlfriend was unexpectedly pregnant. Generally, people would be scared out of their wits if they found out their girlfriend was pregnant during school.

  However, Zhan Feng is the young master of the Zhan family. His girlfriend is pregnant, which is a good thing. Upon learning this news, Zhan Feng hurriedly returned to his own clan and told his father about it. Zhan Kuangren was also extremely delighted and immediately agreed to give Zhan Feng's girlfriend, Xiao Yufeng, a name.

  Moreover, the old man also promised to Xuan Feng that he would buy a villa for Xiao Yufeng and arrange ten special military personnel to protect Xiao Yufeng, so that she could give birth to the child with peace of mind and become the young mistress of the Xuan family, which was absolutely impossible to escape.

  Zhan Feng also knew that his girlfriend would be very anxious upon suddenly finding out she was pregnant, so after discussing the conditions with his father, he hastily returned to the house he and his girlfriend rented outside, wanting Xiao Yufeng to put her mind at ease and focus on taking care of her pregnancy.

  Zhan Feng was also halfway there when he encountered three members of the assassin organization invited by Zhao's young master. Although these assassins were highly skilled, Zhan Feng's skills were not weak either. Even though they had guns and launched a sneak attack, they couldn't gain any advantage, but instead were approached by Zhan Feng and two of them were killed in succession.

  However, just as he was about to kill the third person, that person directly detonated the explosives hidden on his body. Xing Feng dodged too late and died on the spot.

  Afterwards, Zhan Kuangren was enraged and led 2,000 armed subordinates to storm the National Tax Bureau, killing Zhao, the then director of the National Tax Bureau, on the spot. Zhao's son was also killed in the crossfire. Although the vendetta was avenged, Zhan Kuangren had also violated military discipline.

  However, because Zong Kui was too highly respected in the army, this matter had little impact on him. What affected him most was still the death of his son. Losing one's father in childhood, losing one's spouse in middle age, and losing one's child in old age are the most heartbreaking things in life.

  Zhan Kuangren, an old man who had lost his son, seemed to have aged more than a decade overnight. His hopes for life were shattered all at once. The only thing that allowed Zhan Kuangren to survive was the child in Xiao Yufeng's womb.

  Zhan Kuangren had also hesitated, whether to bring Xiao Yufeng back to the Zhan family, tell her about Zhan Feng's situation, and then let Xiao Yufeng take the position of the young mistress of the Zhan family, so that the child could also enjoy extremely high material conditions, or to conceal this matter and not let Xiao Yufeng know about Zhan Feng's death.
