Chapter 1368: Chapter 1438: Discharged from the Hospital
Daives couldn’t help but take another glance, then quickly averted his eyes. Luckily, he was black, so no matter how red his face was, no one could tell. It has to be said, this is certainly an advantage of his race.
"Wonderful, I warmly welcome you." Actually, Sheng Ning now had backing, so even if she didn’t fulfill the previous agreement, he wouldn’t do anything to her. The compensation from the Feng Family to him wouldn’t be less, it just depended on what Sheng Ning decided to do before that.
"Are you planning on taking a double share?" Sheng Ning suddenly thought of this possibility and said seriously, "This is just a transaction between us; I don’t want Mr. Feng to be involved."
The Feng Family was the Feng Family, and she was herself. This time, she was determined to keep a distance from the Feng Family.
It would definitely not be like it was with the Su Family.
The Su Family made her feel warmth, while the Feng Family only made her feel cold, cruel, and bloodthirsty.
The members raised by this family were all twisted; the farther she stayed from them, the better. Just maintain a normal familial relationship, like regular visits and interactions.
As for the favor she owed this time, she would repay it in the future.
Even Mr. Feng would be treated as a family member, but with others, especially regarding interests, she must keep a respectful distance.
"How could that be?" Daives seemed greatly insulted, "You should go and ask around; my reputation in the business is impeccable."
"Sheng, I solemnly warn you, don’t easily question my credibility, or I won’t be polite to you." Although he was wary of the Feng Family and hoped to do business with them, he didn’t fear the Feng Family at all.
Daives also had backing, the famous Westminster Family, a classic old noble family from England. If it weren’t for his backing, he wouldn’t have come this far.
Gu Yunbo nodded from the side, "That’s right, I can testify. Boss Daives indeed has the best reputation in the entire United States."
"Alright, let’s hurry back!" Gu Yunbo’s leg was almost healed, but looking at Daives now felt quite awkward, completely lacking the aura of a black-market kingpin.
Tsk tsk... It was a far cry from the time he stormed into the yard.
"What are you doing?" Housekeeper Xing arrived just as Daives had started the car, which happened to block the road.
Sheng Ning saw this and hurriedly tried to get out of the car, but Housekeeper Xing stopped her just in time.
"Stay in the car; you haven’t finished your confinement period, yet you dare to run around. What if you catch a cold? You’ll end up with lasting health issues."
"It’s nothing; those are old traditions."
"Still, no excuse. You fell into the sea while pregnant and weakened your body. You must take this confinement period to recover."
"Thank you, Housekeeper Xing." Sheng Ning stretched her head from the back seat, giving Housekeeper Xing a smile.
"...You’re welcome." Housekeeper Xing was momentarily stunned; it had been many years since he’d seen such a pure smile in the Feng Family.
"Let me take you back!" Chief Feng called out, instructing his driver to follow behind Daives’s car.
The three cars returned to Broadway Street all the way; even in daylight, it remained as bustling as ever. Daives’s opera house occupied a place on this street where every inch of land was worth gold; while not the best position, it was still extremely important.
Sheng Ning had always taken the back entrance before and never noticed the theater’s name. This time, as she walked through the front entrance and looked up at the familiar English letters, she involuntarily read them aloud.
