I, the wanderer of the universe, love making friends

Chapter 36 Nothing else to say except congratulations
in the afternoon.

The light from the setting sun shines into the room through the window, bringing a touch of warmth and tranquility to the whole room.

Feng Chengcheng lay on the soft bed, her eyelashes trembling slightly, as if she was wandering between dreams and reality.

After a while, she slowly opened her eyes. Her eyes were a little blurry, but full of tenderness and satisfaction.

When he turned around, he met Shen Lang's gaze.

As their eyes met, Feng Chengcheng's face flushed with shyness, and she asked softly, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Shen Lang smiled slightly and said, "Because I can't see enough."

Hearing Shen Lang's words, Feng Chengcheng felt a sweet ripple in her heart.

Just now, she had felt Shen Lang's sincere feelings and understood how much he cherished her.

I also feel the collision of souls and the harmony of hearts.

She stretched out, showing a lazy and charming posture.

"Are you hungry? Let's go eat something." Shen Lang asked with concern.

It seemed like Feng Chengcheng hadn't eaten much today, so he must be feeling hungry and tired.

Feng Chengcheng nodded and sat up from the bed.

She first gently tidied her messy hair with her hands, her movements gentle and graceful.

Then, he turned over and got out of bed, placing his feet firmly on the ground.

When his eyes fell on the bloodstained white handkerchief on the bed, he hurriedly picked it up, folded it carefully and attentively, and then gently put it aside, as if he wanted to preserve this beautiful memory forever.

After doing all this, he slowly walked to the dressing table and sat down.

Looking at herself in the mirror, the corners of her mouth rose slightly and she began to comb her long hair.

After a simple combing, the black and shiny hair falls down like a waterfall.

Then she skillfully divides the hair into several strands, crosses them and braids them into an exquisite bun, and finally secures it with a hairpin.

With the change of hairstyle, her whole temperament instantly became mature and steady, which was very different from her previous image of a young girl.

After she finished dressing up, Shen Lang couldn't help but praise her: "You look really good in this outfit."

"Don't you look good in other outfits?" Feng Chengcheng rolled her eyes at him coquettishly, then asked with a smile.

"Of course not. You are so beautiful and charming no matter how you dress. Every outfit gives people a refreshing feeling." Shen Lang said.

"That's quite pleasant to hear." Feng Chengcheng chuckled, then gently straightened his clothes. "You're dressed well, too. You look mature and steady."

"Thank you for the compliment. Let's go eat first. I think you must be starving now."

The two went out together and took a car to a nearby Western restaurant called Red Rose.

Choose a quiet corner to sit down, order your food and start chatting.

At this moment, someone suddenly greeted me: "Ms. Feng, Mr. Shen."

Turning around, I saw Ding Li and another man walking towards me.

The man was tall and handsome, with deep and sharp eyes. He looked particularly handsome in a well-tailored black suit.

"Mr. Ding, what a coincidence?" Shen Lang responded with a smile.

"Yeah, what a coincidence." Ding Li nodded, then introduced the man next to him to Shen Lang, "By the way, let me introduce you, this is Mr. Xu Wenqiang."

"Hello." Xu Wenqiang nodded slightly and greeted them calmly, then walked to a relatively far place with Ding Li and sat down.

Feng Chengcheng whispered, "So this is Xu Wenqiang, the man my father wanted to treat to dinner. I wonder what his relationship with my father is."

"Uncle Feng has a great ability in judging people. I guess these two people have some outstanding qualities, so Uncle Feng invited them to dinner." Shen Lang said.

"Maybe." Feng Chengcheng thought for a moment and then said, "By the way, when are you going to tell my dad about us?"

Shen Lang said without thinking: "Anytime."

Although Feng Jingyao was a cunning traitor, as long as he was killed in advance, he would not be branded as a traitor's son-in-law.

The Feng family has only one daughter, Feng Chengcheng, so the huge industry is bound to fall into her hands.

Then he added, "After dinner, we'll go to your house and explain this to your father. Then, when the time is right, we'll make an engagement and hold the wedding."

"Ah?" Feng Chengcheng was stunned. "So fast?"

Her voice was filled with surprise and confusion.

Shen Lang looked at her seriously and explained, "I'm worried that you might run away!"

Feng Chengcheng looked into Shen Lang's eyes, with a gleam in her eyes.

He said slowly: "As long as you don't let me down, even if life is difficult and I have to eat coarse food, I will never run away."

Although her tone was calm, it contained determination and persistence.

Had a meal.

The two did not stop.

Take the bus back to Feng's house.

Feng Jingyao is reading a newspaper.

Ah Si came to report: "Master, the young lady is back, and Mr. Shen is back with her."

"Really? Prepare some tea." Feng Jingyao said.

When Ah Si prepared the tea, he saw his daughter and Shen Lang enter the room.

And the two of them were holding hands.

Seeing this scene, Feng Jingyao felt a little unbelievable.

Are they together so soon? Otherwise, how could they even hold hands?
Besides, my daughter's dress is a bit mature.

Feng Jingyao coughed deliberately.

"cough……"

Feng Chengcheng quickly let go of his hand, hid it behind his back, and said, "Dad, we're back."

"Good evening, Uncle Feng." Shen Lang greeted with a smile.

Feng Jingyao nodded: "Come over and have some tea first."

"Dad, Shen Lang said he wants to talk to you." Feng Chengcheng was still a little embarrassed to discuss marriage. "I'm going upstairs to put on some clothes. You guys talk first."

Having said that, he endured the discomfort and quickly ran back upstairs.

But he stopped at the stairs.

Shen Lang sat across from Feng Jingyao. Just as he was about to pick up his teacup, Feng Jingyao asked, "What do you want to talk to me about? About housing prices?"

"Uncle Feng, just name a price for the house price. I want to talk about something else." Shen Lang said.

He drank some tea to moisten his throat first.

"What's that?" Feng Jingyao looked at him.

"This concerns Cheng Cheng's happiness." Shen Lang put down the teacup in his hand and said seriously, "I have already secretly decided to spend my life with Cheng Cheng, so I came here tonight to discuss this matter with Uncle Feng. I hope Uncle Feng will marry Cheng Cheng to me."

"Secretly getting married?" Feng Jingyao's hand holding the cigarette trembled when he heard him admit it himself.

Anger welled up in her heart. She glared at the young man in front of her and said in a low voice, "You're just talking big and coming to ask me for marriage with nothing?"

Although times have changed, proposing a marriage still requires certain etiquette and preparation.

Feng Jingyao's daughter is not someone who can be married off casually, and she must not be treated with contempt like this.

Shen Lang answered frankly, "I'm alone and have just arrived in Shanghai. I can't find anyone suitable to propose marriage to me, so I have no choice but to come here in person to discuss this matter with Uncle Feng."

Hearing Shen Lang's frank answer, Feng Jingyao's face turned very ugly and the muscles on his face twitched involuntarily.

He didn't expect Shen Lang to be so direct and completely disregard traditional etiquette and rules.

Shen Lang continued, "Although I, Shen Lang, came here empty-handed this time, my abilities and potential will prove that I am definitely not an ordinary person. It is undoubtedly a great blessing for Uncle Feng to have such an outstanding son-in-law like me."

"I want to extend my sincerest congratulations to Uncle Feng here, and I hope that we, the father-in-law and son-in-law, can work together to create a better life. So apart from congratulations, I don't know what else to say."

His tone was firm and confident, and he was completely sure of himself.

The voice just fell.

There was a muffled sound on the stairs.

Boom!
Feng Chengcheng, who was originally standing on the stairs, suddenly felt her legs go weak and almost rolled down the stairs.

She widened her eyes and looked at Shen Lang on the sofa in astonishment, secretly exclaiming in her heart: How can this man be so bold?

At the same time, Feng Jingyao's expression became even uglier.

He originally thought that Shen Lang would be afraid and would not dare to offend him easily.

However, it now seems that this person does not take himself seriously at all.

He couldn't help but frown, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.

But a smile instantly appeared on his face and he extinguished the cigarette in the ashtray.

He laughed heartily. "You're truly courageous! This is the first time I've met someone so arrogant. From what you're saying, should I be grateful and happy to have you as my son-in-law? And thank you for marrying my daughter?"

He has been a big shot in Shanghai for many years and no longer shows his true thoughts on his face.

He looked smiling, but in fact he was already thinking about how to kill someone next.

"Well, that's not impossible." Shen Lang leaned over and lowered his voice: "Uncle Feng, do you want to get Chen Lianshan's land?"

Chen Lianshan is Chen Hanlin's father. He is engaged in the textile industry and owns a large amount of land in the Huibei warehouse area.

When Feng Jingyao heard that the French government was going to develop the Huibei warehouse area, he planned to buy a large amount of land there before the news was announced to make a profit.

But Chen Lianshan had no intention of selling it. No matter how much money was offered, Chen Lianshan was determined not to sell it.

So Feng Jingyao arranged for Li Xiang to resolve the matter. Although Li Xiang used cruel methods to deal with Chen Lianshan, Chen Lianshan did not fall for it.

When Li Xiang learned that Chen Lianshan's son Chen Hanlin was returning to Shanghai from Peking to visit his relatives, he ordered his killer to sneak into the train and wait for an opportunity to assassinate Chen and his son.

Unexpectedly, Feng Chengcheng and Chen Hanlin were taken hostage by the killer when they returned by car together.

Hearing Shen Lang mention this, Feng Jingyao instantly became serious and his mind worked rapidly.

In the past few days, he asked Li Xiang to inquire about Shen Lang's news, but he had been in Shanghai for a short time and had not found out anything yet.

So he didn't expect that the other party even knew about this matter. He couldn't help but wonder if the killer had said something to him at the station that day?
After a moment's silence, he asked, "How did you know this news?"

"Since I want to be Uncle Feng's son-in-law, I naturally need some gifts." Shen Lang smiled slightly, "It will also prove to Uncle Feng that I am not talking nonsense."

Feng Jingyao took out another cigarette from the can and lit it. He said slowly, "Since you want to prove that you are not talking nonsense, how about if you help me get Chen Lianshan's land, I will marry Cheng Cheng to you?"

Shen Lang immediately realized that Feng Jingyao was just making empty promises to trick him into working for him.

"Uncle, are you only interested in Chen Lianshan's land?" Shen Lang shook his head. "Excuse me, that's just a tiny profit!"

"Cough cough..." Feng Jingyao, who was smoking, was choked by the smoke because of his words.

He hasn't finished coughing yet.

Shen Lang threw out a bigger pie in his backhand: "Uncle Feng, have you ever heard that arms is one of the three most profitable industries in the world?"
