Chapter 1278: Chapter 1276: 1275 Jiang Min's friend

“Feng Jiao?” Zhuang Liu carefully pondered the name and then said, “Are you from the Feng family?”

Feng Jiao straightened his collar and replied very solemnly, “I am the eldest son of the Feng family.”

Zhuang Liu looked at Feng Jiao’s face and recalled the face of the head of the Feng family; indeed, the two bore some resemblance.

“Oh, eldest young master Feng, pleased to meet you.” Zhuang Liu said.

Feng Jiao said, “Third Young Master Zhuang… oh, that’s incorrect, you have now become the head of the Zhuang family. When you became the head, I was studying abroad and failed to present you with a generous gift—my apologies!”

Zhuang Liu wasn’t lacking Feng Jiao’s generous gift, as Feng Jiao’s father had already sent a present, and Zhuang Liu had reciprocated. The main reason he remembered the name Feng Jiao was that Xiao Mo had complained about him by his side.

Xiao Mo said that Feng Jiao was ugly, frivolous, unclear with many beauties abroad, and although smart, his character was really too poor, just like his father.

At that time, Zhuang Liu had asked Xiao Mo why he spoke ill of Feng Jiao, and Xiao Mo answered that it was because Feng Jiao had harassed his cousin abroad. When his cousin refused Feng Jiao’s pursuit, Feng Jiao spread rumors that his cousin was a hostess.

Later, Xiao Mo’s cousin approached Xiao Mo in tears, and Xiao Mo used Zhuang Liu’s connections to teach Feng Jiao a lesson, after which Feng Jiao no longer bothered his cousin.

Feng Jiao did not realize Xiao Mo’s cousin had Zhuang Liu backing her and thought he had offended some big shot abroad.

Xiao Mo had also talked about this incident with Zhuang Liu, who didn’t take it seriously and let him handle it on his own; he had not heard anything about Feng Jiao since then.

Zhuang Liu had never thought that Jiang Min’s fiancé would turn out to be Feng Jiao, as he regarded Jiang Min as a strong and capable person; why would she choose such a fiancé?

“Thank you for the kind offer, but it’s no longer necessary.” Zhuang Liu said indifferently, “Let’s talk business in the future.” He was reluctant to talk for too long with someone like Feng Jiao; it would waste his precious time.

Naturally, Feng Jiao did not want to miss this opportunity. Now that he was back in the country, if he planned to develop here in the future, he would inevitably need to deal with the Zhuang family. With the head of the Zhuang family right in front of him, how could he pass up such a good opportunity?

“Mr. Zhuang, meeting is fate. As this is our first meeting, why don’t I play host today and treat you and Miss Rou to a meal?” Feng Jiao said with a smile. While speaking, he looked towards Tan Rou, “Miss Rou, what do you think?”

Tan Rou didn’t know Feng Jiao and was unaware why he knew her, “No, since it has already been decided that Liang Lu is treating us today, let’s not complicate things.”

Liang Lu said, “Yes, I have already arranged the restaurant. If Mr. Feng wishes to organize another meal, it will have to wait for another time.”

Feng Jiao found Liang Lu unfamiliar and asked, “Who is this?”

Liang Lu answered, “Liang Lu, a friend of Jiang Min’s senior. Although Liang Lu and Jiang Min aren’t from the same school, she also calls Jiang Min senior, as it feels more familiar.”

Liang Lu also disapproved of Jiang Min’s fiancé. First, the man was too ugly and simply did not match Jiang Min.

Second, Li Li had just complained to her about Feng Jiao’s behavior, so Liang Lu did not have much of a favorable impression of him.

Third, although Feng Jiao’s attitude hadn’t been warm initially, his face blossomed like a sunflower at the sight of Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu, nearly trying to stick himself to them. Liang Lu found this behavior most repulsive.

Feng Jiao hadn’t heard of Liang Lu before and, seeing her dressed very ordinarily, didn’t take much notice, merely nodding slightly, “Hello.”

Lu Qing stood behind Liang Lu all this time, having become more composed over the years. Unless absolutely necessary, he would not speak, so he stayed quiet, and Feng Jiao didn’t notice him, considering him just another ordinary friend of Jiang Min.

Before long, Shang Jin and Xu Yan arrived; Feng Jiao’s attitude was still not warm, clearly uninterested in them. His attention was entirely captivated by Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu, constantly steering the conversation towards them.

“Sorry we are late,” Tian Tian and Tao Zhi finally arrived at the gathering.

When Feng Jiao saw Tao Zhi, he was astounded, “Isn’t that Little President Tao? What brings you here?”
