Chapter 229
After Zhang Beichuan returned to his room No. 85, he asked someone to keep an eye on Lou Feng, and then asked his deputy to arrange a meeting with Xiao Yi.
Jin Ling knew about it the moment Zhang Beichuan entered the Lou family. There was no way around it because Jin Zir's information network was spread all over Shanghai, so Jin Ling could know everything Zhang Beichuan did the first time.
After hearing the news from Jin Zier, Jin Ling sneered at Yan Minnan, "I didn't expect that Lou Feng still has some father-daughter feelings for his daughter!" Yan Minnan looked at the thing in his hand and said, "Do you think that Lou Feng is feeling sorry for his daughter?"
Jin Ling looked at Yan Minnan in confusion after hearing this and said, "What do you mean by that?" Yan Minnan touched Jin Ling's belly and said, "You, you wouldn't have thought of this so naively before. It's just that Lou Feng felt bad for throwing his newly adopted daughter into such a place."
Jin Ling frowned and asked: "Then why did he send the consent to that place? He is a director, he should have the ability to stop it!" Yan Minnan smiled and said: "Because he wants to get greater benefits." Jin Ling still looked at Yan Minnan with some confusion.
Yan Minnan explained: "Lou Feng has always been ambitious, but he also knows that if he directly sends Jin Xin to that kind of place, it will cause too much controversy and trouble. So he chose a way to acquiesce to Zhang Beichuan's behavior - let Jin Xin be thrown there. In this way, he can achieve his goal and avoid accusations from the outside world. And now, he is using his daughter to exchange for more benefits. It is also possible that some main forces of feminism will give him some favorable things because of this incident."
Jin Ling nodded in sudden enlightenment and said, "I see. But this is too unfair to Jin Xin."
Jin felt something was wrong, so he asked, "Why did he ask others to teach Zhang Beichuan a lesson?" Yan Minnan thought for a moment and replied, "Maybe he thought that if he didn't take action, others would think that he condoned it and would regard him as a heartless person. Another possibility is that he wanted to use this method to clear himself of suspicion."
To be honest, Jin Ling now sympathizes with Jin Xin. It is a tragedy for her to have such a pair of parents. They treat Jin Xin as a chess piece and manipulate her at will. Perhaps, for Jin Xin, the only person she has feelings for is her biological mother who is a concubine.
Just as Jin Ling thought, Jin Xin's mother scolded Lou Feng loudly immediately after Zhang Beichuan left: "Why? Lou Feng, you are not a man at all! That's your daughter, and you just watched her being bullied. Do you still have any conscience?"
Lou Feng was an extremely conceited and chauvinistic man. Ever since he climbed to a high position, he felt that no one could challenge his authority. Now, hearing that Jin Xin's mother dared to disrespect him, he was furious and slapped her in the face, and cursed her viciously: "Shut up! You are such a stupid woman, what do you know? Her name is Jin Xin, and her surname is indeed Jin, but who can guarantee that she is definitely my daughter?"
Jin Xin's mother never expected Lou Feng to be so heartless. Her face was full of disbelief. She asked in grief and anger: "Lou Feng, what do you mean? You actually doubt that she is not your biological daughter? I carried her for ten months with great difficulty before giving birth to her! How can you doubt me like this?"
Lou Feng glanced coldly at the woman lying on the ground, without any sympathy. Instead, he said contemptuously: "Humph, who knows? Don't forget that you had many patrons in the past. They were all your regular customers. Have you forgotten them all?"
Jin Xin's mother could never have imagined that Lou Feng was so shameless. It was he who claimed that he was penniless and needed to go out to make a living, so she was forced to become a dancer to earn money to support the family. But now, this man turned around and accused her of being a dancer and not worthy of him! She couldn't help but sigh that she had not been able to see clearly whether this man was a human or a ghost in the past 20 years!
Jin Xin's mother struggled to get up from the ground, tears and blood mixed together, making her face look particularly desolate. She said in a trembling voice: "Lou Feng, I never thought that you would be such a selfish, heartless person! Do you think you can cover up everything by saying that Xin Xin is not your daughter? Impossible! Do you know that now everyone in Shanghai knows that Jin Xin is your daughter!"
Lou Feng was naturally aware of this matter, but he was always good at deceiving himself. Otherwise, he would not have married Zhao Jiali, who was pregnant before marriage, and treated the child whose biological father he did not know as his own, and was willing to bear the green hat for more than 20 years.
Lou Feng didn't care about those rumors. He only cared about his own inner thoughts. So he ignored the woman who was making trouble and turned to his housekeeper and ordered: "Lock this crazy woman in the backyard. Don't let her out without my order! Then send Miss Lou Yin to Shi Ma and ask her to help take care of her."
When Jin Xin's mother heard this, her face suddenly changed and she shouted angrily: "Lou Feng, what do you mean? What do you want to do? You actually want to separate Yin Yin and me? She is my biological daughter! Stop it now!" Then she rushed towards Lou Feng aggressively.
However, as a man, how could Lou Feng be afraid of a weak woman? He easily dodged the attack from Jin Xin's mother and quickly kicked her, sending her flying half a meter away.
The servants standing by were all stunned when they saw what Lou Feng did. They could never have imagined that Lou Feng would actually attack the second concubine, and he did it so hard! He simply didn't treat her as his own woman at all! Everyone felt a chill in their hearts. Lou Feng's housekeeper was so frightened that he trembled all over and his face turned pale. He thought to himself: "Even the woman who shared a bed with him can be so cruel, then we who are just servants hired by him, won't we have a worse end in the future?" For a moment, the whole scene fell into silence, and no one dared to speak, for fear of angering Lou Feng.
Everyone looked at the second concubine who had fallen to the ground. For a moment, no one dared to step forward to help her, fearing that Lou Feng would be angry. Seeing this, Lou Feng became even more furious and shouted, "Why are you all standing there like idiots? Pull her down quickly! Are you going to let her stay here as a decoration?"
At this time, Lou Yin, who was hiding at the stairs, originally planned to go downstairs to plead for her mother, but just after walking down a few steps, she witnessed a shocking scene - Lou Feng kicked the second concubine unconscious. Lou Yin was so frightened that she trembled all over, her face was as pale as paper, her lips trembled, but she couldn't make a sound. She even forgot to cry, but just stared at everything happening in front of her with wide eyes, horrified.
Lou Yin was filled with fear and helplessness. She was terrified that if she asked for mercy, she would be beaten like her mother. At this moment, she finally understood that in this family, her father was the absolute authority and no one could challenge his majesty. Lou Yin knew that she was just a young child and could not bear her father's violence. So she could only retreat silently upstairs and hide in her room, hoping to escape this nightmare.
