Chapter 3: What's Your Relationship with the Feng Family?Yan Yuan casually picked up the phone from the ground—the live stream had already been cut off unintentionally.She glanced at the interface displayed on the screen, her tone growing even colder. "If you don’t talk, I’ll send you straight to the police station!""I’ll talk, I’ll talk! I’ll tell you everything!" The vendor hurriedly explained the whole story. "I don’t know who it was… They just told me to install this app and start a live stream whenever I saw you. They’d pay me ten thousand yuan a month! You know how it is—I can’t even make that much in a month selling here…"Yan Yuan deliberately sharpened her tone. "Let me tell you, I’m not from this small town. I come from a powerful family in the capital!""Sooner or later, I’ll go back. If you don’t listen to me… I’ll make sure you won’t even have a business left!""I’m sorry, miss! It was my fault! Please forgive me!" The vendor was a coward at heart and didn’t dare cause any trouble. He begged desperately, "I’ll uninstall this app right now and never stream again, as long as you forgive me…"Faced with his pleas, Yan Yuan snorted disdainfully. "Who told you to uninstall it?""Huh? What do you mean? Don’t you want me to uninstall it?"Yan Yuan replied with a meaningful tone. "Just keep doing what they told you to do. Listen to them… Those people just can’t stand to see me doing well."She adopted the tone of a spoiled, dramatic troublemaker. "When I go back, I’ll make them pay! For now, let them have their little moment of triumph."The vendor was growing more and more confused by the ways of the wealthy, especially this girl in front of him.Even though she had come to this backward, remote town, she was like a peony blooming here—radiant and completely out of place, someone who shouldn’t have been here at all.Yan Yuan then waved her fist at the vendor. "I’m warning you—do exactly as I say, or you’ll regret it!"After baring her teeth and delivering the threat, Yan Yuan turned and walked back to the school gate, inadvertently meeting those dark, inscrutable eyes once again.Feng Xiao had already settled back into his old recliner, leisurely selling his sundries. Even though his business seemed nonexistent, he didn’t seem to care in the slightest.Yan Yuan glared at him fiercely. "What are you looking at? Keep staring and I’ll dig your eyes out!"Recalling how Yan Yuan had transformed into a little leopard when she lost her temper earlier, Feng Xiao replied with a half-smile. "Sure, I welcome you to try.""Get lost! Who cares about you?"As if utterly disgusted by his lack of seriousness, Yan Yuan stomped her foot, went back to drag her suitcase, and walked out with a face full of disdain.She had no intention of letting Feng Xiao serve her again.Thinking about the environment this pampered young lady used to live in, Feng Xiao tilted his chin up. "You don’t have a place to stay yet, do you? There’s a relatively new residential complex near the school. Want me to help you find a place?"Yan Yuan shot him a sidelong glance. "Why so eager? What do you want from me? Money? I can pay you a commission as long as you find me a place I’m satisfied with.""Sure, I could use the money. I’ll help you find a place, you pay me the commission, and I guarantee you’ll be satisfied."Yan Yuan unhesitatingly tossed her suitcase to this sickly-looking man. After he led her to a rental apartment, she still wore a disdainful expression. "This? This is the kind of place you charge me a fee to find?"Feng Xiao leaned casually against the wall, smiling nonchalantly. "This is the best apartment in the county. If you can't live here… you'll have to sleep on the streets.""Miss, choose one."Yan Yuan grumbled and muttered for a while before reluctantly accepting this newly renovated single apartment."Give me your bank card number. I'll transfer the money to you. I never owe anyone anything!"Her haughty demeanor carried the confidence of someone who had lived a privileged life.But in Feng Xiao's eyes, this little princess clearly had no idea how much hardship awaited her in the future.His gaze lingered on Yan Yuan's spirited eyes and brows. Pressing his tongue against his teeth, he suddenly felt reluctant to see her reduced to a lifeless, dull-eyed state.Forget it. Out of respect for the elders, I'll give her a bit more help later.Just as Feng Xiao thought this, Yan Yuan had already transferred the agency fee to him, adding, "You really are weak. Hurry up and get yourself checked out. Don't delay treatment.""…"Feng Xiao immediately decided he must be sick himself—otherwise, why would he care about her fate?!But he quickly adjusted his mindset, feigning a sigh. "Who says I don't want treatment? I just don't have the money… For this illness of mine, my family sold everything they had, emptied their savings, and still couldn't cure it."Yan Yuan replied coldly and indifferently, "Oh, then you're just unlucky. Accept your fate."Feng Xiao could only take it as her trying to comfort him—otherwise, he might die young from anger.The apartment was fairly clean, so Yan Yuan could move in directly with her luggage.Before stepping inside, she finally remembered something and asked magnanimously, "You still haven't told me your name.""Feng Xiao."He didn't hide it. After all, there were only a handful of people in the world who knew his real name.But upon hearing his name, Yan Yuan frowned, her expression turning wary. "What's your relation to the Feng family?"Feng Xiao calmly countered, "Which Feng family? There's only me in my family now. If one person can count as a family… then I guess it barely qualifies."His answer was flawless, and his demeanor showed no signs of abnormality.Only then did Yan Yuan dismiss her suspicions. Impossible. Someone from the Feng family would never come to such a poor, backward area.The Feng family was rarely described in the book. In the original host's memories, they didn't appear often, but they were the most terrifying existence in the entire story.No one could clearly explain just how powerful the Feng family's influence was, but the Yan family's status as the top aristocratic family in the capital was entirely due to their backing by the Feng family.During annual rankings of prominent families, the Feng family never participated. They stood completely above these aristocratic families, a legendary existence at another peak."Alright, I don't need you anymore today. I'll contact you if I need you in the future."Yan Yuan burned her bridges, closing the door directly without any intention of inviting Feng Xiao inside.What a willful young lady.Feng Xiao's cold and weary expression softened with a faint, elusive smile. It seemed staying here for a while wouldn’t be too boring after all……Closing the door, Yan Yuan immediately dropped the exaggerated, dramatic expressions she had put on as a troublemaker and pulled out the original owner’s laptop from her suitcase.More of the original owner’s memories surfaced in her mind.In the final days of the original owner’s life, she had discovered that her every word and action had been broadcast live to a group of wealthy young heirs and heiresses, who had treated her as a laughingstock.If that was the case…She would shatter that joke herself.Yuan Yuan: When it comes to turning the tables, I’m an expert.
