Shi Rong raised his arms, leaned forward and lowered his head.

"Granddaughter understands."

Feng Qingning nodded, waved away the two people beside her, looked at Huo Yan sitting opposite her, and got back to the topic.

"There's one more thing. The marriage certificate that Rong'er was forced to obtain with the president of your Huo family is, in the eyes of my Ying family, unreliable. This is because the name written on it is Shi Rong. Shi Rong, a non-existent person, did this out of helplessness. You know your own grandson well. If she hadn't followed the trend, she probably wouldn't be alive today."

After a pause, Feng Qingning continued.

"We chose not to blame your Huo family for the dispute. This is in accordance with Rong'er's heart. She doesn't want the Huo and Ying families to become enemies because of this. This is not the situation she wants to see. Even if your Huo family was at fault first, it was ultimately caused by the Ying family, which gave you the opportunity to bully and exploit her. Therefore, Rong'er and I have jointly decided that the Huo and Ying families will no longer remember the past and will not mention the future. As for other matters, I have no right to decide."

Huo Yan understood what Feng Qingning meant. Even though the Huo family was deeply sinful, Ying Shirong's life experience since childhood was much richer than that of others.

So she only regarded the five years she spent in the Huo family as a stage-by-stage test of her life.

Just like before when she was in the Ying family, no matter how many difficulties and obstacles she encountered, as long as she could persevere and stick to it, she would only regard the future as a new beginning.

Thinking of this, I can't help but sigh from the bottom of my heart.

"The daughter of the Ying family is truly extraordinary. I, Huo, admire you! Your Ying family was able to break through the layers of siege in East City and secure its position as a leading enterprise. It is indeed because of your inevitable success. At least in terms of your broad-mindedness, my Huo family is ashamed of itself."

Shi Rong tilted his head and nodded slightly.

"Mr. Huo, you're too kind."

Whether she was Shi Rong or Ying Shi Rong, her face was always as beautiful as before. Huo Jiuzhou saw it and smiled in his heart.

In the past, he tortured and humiliated her so many times, and finally there was one thing, the most important thing, that she retaliated against severely, and that was the matter of getting the marriage certificate.

In Huo Jiuzhou's opinion, he would rather the Ying family fight with him in order to redress the injustices that Shi Rong suffered in the past. He admitted his mistakes, accepted the losses, but he just didn't want Shi Rong to leave his world in such a peaceful way.

Because of love, there arises sorrow; because of love, there arises fear. If one is free from love, there will be no sorrow and no fear.

Huo Jiuzhou understood this principle.

But in this world, no one can stop him from insisting on marrying Shi Rong, not even the Ying family of Dongcheng!

After a long silence, Feng Qingning's gaze wandered to the right of the Huo family's sixth branch, where a seat had been vacant for a long time. She seemed to have thought of something and continued what she had just said.

"The Ying and Huo families can let bygones be bygones. But I will never let go of the Zheng clan, led by Zheng Yuyan. It was fine with my senior brother's secret help in the car accident, but considering that when Rong'er was in Jishan, the Zheng family repeatedly sent people to try to rob Rong'er of her innocence, even if they died ten more times, it would not be unfair."

"If you still want to help me, don't blame me for not honoring our past friendship. Otherwise, I, Feng Qingning, swear an oath: from now on, every member of my Ying family, in every province we pass through, will annihilate a branch of the Zheng family until the entire Zheng family is annihilated."

Feng Qingning's words were so powerful and majestic that everyone in the Ying family obeyed without saying anything else. Led by Shi Rong, they all bowed and nodded in agreement.

"Yes!"

The Ying family of Dongcheng has always been famous for their Buddhist tolerance. They rarely swear or vow to fight to the death with other families. Therefore, they are highly respected in the eyes of various aristocratic families.

It seems that the Zheng family has had the misfortune to offend Ying Shirong this time, and they have hit a big iron plate and can't escape.

Huo Jiuzhou thought it over again and again, and without asking for Huo Yan's consent, he stood up and bowed his head to Feng Qingning, who was sitting in the main seat, according to the etiquette that a younger generation should have towards an elder.

"Mrs. Ying, please be patient. The incident with the Zheng family was originally caused by the Huo family. If you trust me, why not leave this matter to me?"

Feng Qingning was in a good mood when she heard this. She raised her eyebrows and spoke politely in a light tone.

"Oh? From what Mr. Huo said, are you going to stand up for the Ying family?"

Huo Jiuzhou nodded.

"Yes."

Feng Qingning smiled calmly.

"For Rong'er?"

Huo Jiuzhou nodded again.

"Yes."

Feng Qingning's sharp eyes fell silently on the yellow diamond wedding ring on Shi Rong's left ring finger, and she pointed at him.

"It seems that Mr. Huo really likes my granddaughter? Even such an important item can be put into her hands?"

Huo Jiuzhou's gentle gaze followed the direction of Feng Qingning's finger, and he couldn't help but curl his thin lips.

"Yes, I am not talented, but I love your granddaughter."

Love?

Feng Qingning nodded thoughtfully. Huo Jiuzhou was a tough guy who could admit his deep love for Shi Rong in front of so many people without any hesitation.

"Then it's as you wish. Thank you, Mr. Huo."

Huo Jiuzhou nodded again.

"You're too polite."

Shi Rong didn't pay attention to the question of whether he loved her or not, and Zheng Yuyan didn't pay any attention either.

But she heard even her grandmother hinting that the yellow diamond ring on her hand was an important object, so what did it represent?

Shi Rong had never paid much attention to this thing before.

Her inquiring eyes fell on Shi Yang beside her. She saw him holding her little hands, looking left and right, but couldn't figure out what was going on.

Shi Rong understood, but he didn't know either.

Seeing the pair of children and grandchildren studying a ring for a long time but still not understanding it, Feng Qingning couldn't help but smile bitterly. They were really a pair of siblings, so stupid that they were both stupid.

"Ying'er, you don't understand the meaning of this yellow diamond ring?"

Shi Rong paused and nodded honestly.

Feng Qingning asked again.

"Then you want to know?"

Shi Rong thought about it and finally shook his head.

"Do not want to."

Shi Rong had a bad feeling in her heart. She was sure that since this ring came from Huo Jiuzhou, it must not be a good thing. She was afraid that she would not be able to bear it after hearing it.

He simply reached out and wanted to take it off, but before his fingertips touched the edge of the yellow diamond ring.

After Feng Qingning realized that she was about to do something abrupt, she immediately tried to persuade her in a kind way.

"Oh... well, forget it, let Ying'er wear it! It's a kind gesture from Mr. Huo, so it's better to accept it. Grandma thinks it's quite beautiful."

Shi Rong was stunned. What was this unusual reaction from Grandma? Why did she seem so flustered? She rarely acted like this.

Although she felt it was strange, Shi Rong thought about it and realized that there were so many people around. If she just picked it up like that, Huo Jiuzhou would probably fight her to the death. It would be better to wait until another day.
