I don't want to come up with a funny book title anymore.
Chapter 188 Who's still writing during the Chinese New Year?
After all, they already had many grievances about this matter.
"Xie Fei, think about it carefully, why did she suddenly agree?" Xie Fengnan frowned, trying to bring Xie Fei to his senses. "And you don't think that just because Xingmo and I are fine, you two will be fine too, right?"
Xie Fei subconsciously wanted to say, "Of course not, that's why I need your help."
"Have you considered what kind of situation the Xie family would be in if this really happened?"
Outsiders don't know Xie Xingmo's background; they just think of him as a member of the Xie family who was sent by the Xie family to be Xie Fengnan's playmate when he was young.
With Xie Fengnan, the white-haired, heterochromatic-eyed man, standing out from the crowd, his blue-purple hair didn't seem particularly eye-catching, so no one suspected that Xie Fengnan had given him his eyes.
After all, those who had such ideas before are all dead.
But Li Yanran is not like that.
Even if she is inconspicuous in her family, she can still be reached by people in her social circle.
If she gets the eyes, what excuse will she give?
Hiding it for a lifetime? Is that even possible?
Although this is based on Xie Fei's imagined subsequent developments, the fact is that they will die in the first step—during the eye transplant.
Xie Fei's face turned ugly; Xie Fengnan's words nipped the seed of hope in his heart in the bud.
If he insists on doing this, things he doesn't want to see will happen, regardless of success or failure.
If they fail, both he and Li Yanran will die.
If successful, the entire Xie family will be in danger because of this.
"I'm sorry, I... I was just assuming things."
"However, I still think Yanran isn't that kind of person; she's a very nice person."
Xie Fei knew that Xie Fengnan's impression of Li Yanran had become bad because of this incident, so he couldn't help but try to defend her.
"Okay, okay, introduce me to someone when you have time." Xie Fengnan certainly wouldn't make a judgment about someone he'd never met before.
"I can bring her to see you later." Xie Fei was a little excited.
"Oh, no need for that. Let's schedule another time later."
Xie Fei clearly hadn't realized he'd become blind. Even if he brought people over, he couldn't see anything. He decided to wait until next time.
"Alright." Seeing Xie Fengnan's listless appearance, Xie Fei assumed that his injury had not yet healed, so he did not force him.
"I rushed over as soon as I heard you woke up, I had completely forgotten about your injury."
As he spoke, he pulled out a bunch of things from his spatial storage. "Take these supplements as you see fit. I need to go and discuss this matter with Yanran again."
"Go ahead, go ahead." It sounded like Xie Fei had completely given up on this matter. Xie Fengnan, who had finally achieved his performance target, couldn't wait for him to leave.
Not long after Xie Fei left, Xie Fengnan still couldn't find peace.
"Young master, I apologize for disturbing you."
Hearing that it was Xie Kurong's voice, Xie Fengnan felt somewhat helpless.
"Uncle Kurong, why are you looking for me instead of Xie Fei?"
Xie Kurong slowly walked into the house, "My son has caused trouble for the young master."
"No, it's just that I didn't expect Xie Fei, who usually seems like a fairly composed person, to be so..."
Xie Fengnan didn't continue speaking, but Xie Kurong naturally understood what he meant.
He said with some helplessness, "I don't know what happened. Our upbringing of him shouldn't have led him to become like this."
Xie Fengnan declined to comment.
Xie Kurong didn't linger on the topic; his gaze fell directly on Xie Fengnan's eyes. "Young Master has suffered greatly this time."
Xie Fengnan was taken aback. If it were someone else, they might have said something like, "Xie Fengnan has made a big splash again this time."
Everyone says that Xie Xinghe and Xie Fei are not like Gu Huanyan and Xie Liuguang in terms of personality. So, Xie Fei is not like Xie Kurong either.
"It's alright," Xie Fengnan forced a smile. "It's all in the past now."
"Uncle Kurong didn't come here to talk about these things, did he?"
"As expected of the young master, his mind is still so sharp."
"I've come here today to talk to you about the family heir."
Xie Kurong's calm voice stirred quite a ripple in the quiet room.
After a moment of silence, Xie Fengnan continued, "Why are we talking about this? My brother is doing just fine, isn't he?"
Xie Xinghe probably wouldn't bring this up with them after he refused, right?
Xie Kurong sighed and said slowly, "Young Master's brilliance is too dazzling, which inevitably makes some people have other ideas."
Previously, because Xie Fengnan did not have the Golden Eyes, although the other members of the Xie family acknowledged his identity, they did not consider giving him the title of heir.
At that time, Xie Xinghe was the only person with dual abilities, so his position was still undisputed.
However, as Xie Fengnan's performance in that battle came to light, they realized that Xie Fengnan was also qualified to sit in this position.
As a result, there has been some gossip circulating about the Xie family recently.
Both being Xie Liuguang's children and dual-elemental ability users, they both exhibited equally astonishing growth rates.
Why can't he enjoy the same treatment as Xie Xinghe?
Previously, it was just Xie Xinghe alone, so there was no dispute about it.
Now that Xie Fengnan is back, there should be some fair competition, right?
"Although the noise isn't loud yet, if it continues for a long time, it won't be a good thing for the family," Xie Kurong said, his voice filled with helplessness.
Xie Fengnan was no ignorant young man; of course he understood this principle.
“Uncle Kurong, I think my brother should be the successor. I have no intention of competing with him.”
A hint of surprise flashed in Xie Kurong's eyes. "Young Master, do you know what this position means?"
As one of the heads of a collateral branch of the family, he knew what Xie Liuguang and Gu Huanyan were plotting.
In his view, if everything goes smoothly, the chances of success on this path are very high.
But now Xie Fengnan is saying so casually that he wants to give up. Does that mean they didn't tell Xie Fengnan about this?
"I know," Xie Fengnan said in a nonchalant tone, "but my brother has always done a great job in this position, and I don't want to worry about it."
Xie Fengnan felt that he had never had any ambition, or rather, his ambition was simply to live a good life.
Although people change, at least at this moment, Xie Fengnan does not want to do anything that goes against his own thoughts.
The reason Xie Fengnan said this was because he was confident that if one day the Xie family changed their minds and could no longer tolerate him.
He was also confident that he could extricate himself from the situation.
Xie Fengnan values loyalty and righteousness, which Xie Kurong sees as a good thing. After all, who would want to follow a cold-hearted and heartless person?
"Young Master, do you know that the struggle for power is always cruel and allows no room for leniency?"
