Chapter Seven: Brotherhood of Loyalty (Part One)

Once again, a crisp sound of a slap echoed in the room

Feng Yinglou turned his head abruptly. The tall young man standing outside the hospital room, clapping his hands and looking at him with a warm gaze, was none other than Xiao Hongfei, who had deceived him into smoking, taught him to drink, and vowed to change his tragic fate of not being able to sleep with women until after the age of thirty

You ... ... ! ! !

Feng Hongwei truly seemed on the verge of losing his mind. Ignoring the increasing number of onlookers outside the ward, he forcefully pushed away the mother who rushed in to protect her son. Addressing the tear-streaked face of Feng Yinglou, he sternly said: "What others do to that Xiao Hongfei has nothing to do with you. You haven't even grown your wings yet, and you want to help others. Who do you think you are?! Let me tell you, if I don't beat you to death this time, the next time you encounter something, just lower your head and walk your own path. That Xiao Hongfei you mentioned is only being taught a lesson because he is not a good person!"

Before Feng Yinglou's eyes had even opened, his body was suddenly enveloped in a warm embrace. Breathing in the familiar scent of his mother, he felt a sharper pain in his chest due to the movement; however, a hint of blissful intoxication emerged on Feng Yinglou's face.

No

Feng Hongwei's heavy breathing was frightening, "Why did you run to the commander’s house and set it on fire?"

Feng Yinglou's mother suddenly hugged her child tightly, watching Feng Hongchuan warily and asking, "What do you want to do?"

The reason is simple ... others see that you are not learning well, and it is only because you are not a good person that they teach you a lesson. Your father conducts himself properly and walks straight; why is it that no one suddenly jumps out on the street to hit me?

Feng Yinglou suddenly raised his face, which was swollen and red from being beaten. Even as tears streamed down, an unprecedented brilliance suddenly appeared in his eyes. He shouted loudly: "Brother Xiao Hongfei is not a bad person! He is my friend, and if someone wants to bully him, I will help him!"

Clap! Clap!

Under normal circumstances, Feng Yinglou would certainly keep her mouth tightly shut, attempting to calm Feng Hongwei's anger with the most obedient and gentle demeanor

Young man, tell me, did you really go to the commander’s house and even think about setting it on fire with some gasoline

His mother is also a soldier, and her work involves professional surveying. Each year, she spends several times more time stationed in the field than at home. In his memory of the Wind Shadow Building, he truly hasn't felt this happy nestled in his mother's embrace for a long time

In all the years of Fengying Tower's existence, no one has ever stood up to speak out for the indignities it has suffered

Indeed, someone is raising their hand and striking his face fiercely. Immediately, the sound of his mother's complaints rings in his ears, "The child has been unconscious in the hospital for a full two days. Can we clarify things before taking action? He has just woken up, his eyes haven't even had the chance to open yet, and you are already laying hands on him. Is this how a father should behave?"

In the silence, amidst the crowd of onlookers outside the hospital room, as his mother slowly approached, attempting once again to protect him, just before he fell into a complete coma, the words that Xiao Hongfei roared out suddenly became clear and passionate in the mind of Feng Yinglou: "If you dare to harm my brother, I will fight you to the death"

Before the words had left his mouth, ten fresh red fingerprints appeared on Feng Yinglou's face once again. This time, Feng Hongwei struck hard enough that it caused a trickle of blood to slowly seep from the lips of Feng Yinglou, who had just regained consciousness from a faint.

This time, he indeed did so

Feng Yinglou knew that he could not escape this ordeal; in fact, he had never harbored any delusions regarding this matter.

Feng Yinglou finally opened his eyes. He is currently lying in a ward of the military district hospital. Through the glass window of the door, Feng Yinglou can clearly see that some people are watching with faces full of curiosity and excitement, observing their interrogation and the inevitable family discipline.

In the face of this scene, even the mother who tightly embraced the Wind Shadow Tower could not help but gently shake her head

His chest felt as if it had been struck violently by a heavy hammer, followed by the weight of a stone weighing at least several hundred kilograms pressing down on it. Otherwise, why would every breath he took be accompanied by an unbearable sharp pain in his chest?

Good, good, good, truly worthy of being my friend through thick and thin, hetushu.com is indeed a comrade who fights alongside me, a good brother who would even bite off two of his own teeth to protect me

The second person in the room was none other than Feng Hongwei, the father of Feng Yinglou! He pointed at Feng Yinglou and said: "This kid is only eight years old, eight years old! At such a young age, he dares to run to the military commander's house, splashing gasoline and attempting to set the house on fire. Those who know say it's just a child misbehaving and causing trouble, but for those who don't know, they might mistakenly think I have grievances against the military commander and want to vent my dissatisfaction in this way"

What are you doing

However, when the Wind Shadow Pavilion lowered its head, preparing to admit its mistake, a phrase once spoken by Xiao Hongfei suddenly echoed in my ears... "As long as he can sit here and share this drink with me, he is my friend. No matter how rough my life has been, I, Xiao Hongfei, have never allowed a friend to be insulted to their face by others!"

"I don't know how to be a father? With a son like him, I, Feng Hongwei, cannot afford to raise him, nor do I dare to raise him"

You give me ... ...

It hurts, it hurts so much

The scene at the Red Mansion truly astonished everyone, even the crowd outside the hospital room, who had been watching the commotion, suddenly fell into a deep silence

They were beating Brother Xiao Hongfei, and I was anxious to help him

Faced with such an undeniably uncomfortable sensation, he couldn't help but let out a soft grunt, and his mother's voice, filled with surprise and joy, rang in his ears: "Xiao Lou, you have finally woken up"

Feng Hongzhuan is widely recognized as a modest gentleman. He has extended excessive tolerance and forbearance to outsiders, while what he reserves for his family is naturally a buildup of frustration and anger.

At that moment, a crisp round of applause suddenly erupted outside the hospital room

As soon as Feng Yinglou nodded, he received a heavy slap across the face again

Clap! Clap! Clap... ...

At this point, Feng Hongwei was truly anxious, pacing back and forth like an ant on a hot pan. "What do you have to say, you mother of the child? I, Feng Hongwei, have always been cautious in my life, striving to maintain good relationships with my colleagues. Even when I have been wronged, I have brushed it off with a smile, never quarreling over trivial matters. How could I have given birth to such a lawless child, who at just eight years old dares to set fire with gasoline, even targeting the home of the military commander?"

At school, Feng Yinglou was bullied and never dared to retaliate; he was even more afraid to initiate a fight. As long as the other party did not leave any scars or bruises on his face, he would not say anything, even if they spat in his face. This was because whenever he returned home with injuries on his face, Feng Hongwei never asked about the circumstances. Instead, he would rush into the kitchen, grab the rolling pin that was as thick as an egg, and unleash a flurry of strikes on Feng Yinglou's backside.

Feng Hongwei's furious shout abruptly came to a halt, his agitation evident. While he might not know who Xiao Hongfei was, how could Feng Hongwei possibly be unfamiliar with Yang Mu, who stood quietly behind Xiao Hongfei? Yang Mu, the trusted aide of the commander, held an absolutely transcendent position within the entire military district

Bang!

A sudden crisp sound of "pop" echoed in his ears, and a burning sensation quickly spread across his face. Enjoying the gentle embrace of his mother, Feng Yinglou was truly puzzled. It seemed as if he had... received a slap across the face

Feng Hongwei widened his eyes and said: "Of course, we will take this little brat to the commander’s house to apologize, and in front of the commander, break this kid's two legs! Do you know how many people in the entire military district are watching with wide eyes, waiting to see my good show? Must we wait until the commander becomes impatient and sends someone to ask us for an explanation before we cautiously go over? I tell you, by that time, it will already be too late!"

Although they had not yet clarified the details of the incident from Feng Yinglou, the gossiping women from the duty squad present that day had already spread the events that occurred two days prior at the commander’s residence throughout the city. With so many voices contributing to the narrative, the story became increasingly sensational. If it were not for the fact that Feng Yinglou was indeed quite small and well-known for his timid nature, it might have escalated into an S-level incident, such as a terrorist attack on the commander's residence.

It is no wonder that Feng Hongwei, who has always adhered to the motto "Endure for a moment and the storm will pass; take a step back and the sea will be vast," would be so furious that his eyes blaze and he feels utterly at a loss.

Seeing Feng Yinglou still clinging to his mother's embrace at this moment, Feng Hongwei stepped forward without a word and left five bright red fingerprints on Feng Yinglou's face. "If you are awake, stop pretending to be dead in your mother's arms. Since you have done this, there is no way for you to escape. Now get up immediately and come with me to apologize to the commander. Also, the child's mother, when you go home, bring the rolling pin from the kitchen and then come to the commander's house to find me."
