Chapter 1249 - Offended Everyone
My Sweet Physician Wife Calls The Shots
After saying that, Feng Shengxuan asked Old Master Nangong to wait for a while. Then, he went to the trunk of the car and took out a box before handing it over to Old Master Nangong. âItâs our first time meeting. Please accept this little token from me.â
Old Master Nangong laughed and put their dark history behind them. Having a cunning fox become one of their own was simply a bonus.
âSince youâre Nuannuanâs brother, I wonât stand on ceremony then.â
Feng Shengxuanâs smile stiffened for a moment, but he did not argue with the old master on the whole thing about calling him Nuannuanâs brother.
After all, actions speak louder than words.
âThese are my Eldest Uncle and Eldest Aunt-in-law.â
âHello, Eldest Uncle. Hello, Eldest Aunt.â Feng Shengxuan was acquiescent.
Nangong Shu laughed and asked, âWeâll be family from now on. You wonât snatch weapons from me anymore, right?â
Nuannuan, ââ¦â
âWhat feud do you have with Eldest Uncle again?â
âHis Imperial Phoenix Group snatched quite some goods from me several times! This brother of yours is truly willful because heâs rich. After noticing that Imperial Phoenix Group bought the goods at a high price, I no longer dared to touch those goods that were already sold at a massively inflated price.â
Nuannuan was completely stunned and asked, âWhat goods?â
âWhat else could it be? Theyâre specialized military equipment important from Sab, of course.â
The corners of Nuannuanâs mouth twitched again. Before she could say anything, Feng Shengxuan explained, âEldest Uncle, youâve misunderstood me. The real chairman of Imperial Phoenix Group is Nuannuan. Itâs just that sheâs lazy, so Iâve been helping her manage it. If I had known that you were her uncle, I wouldnât have gone bidding for those goods.â
Nangong Shu, ââ¦â
Nangong Nuannuan, ââ¦â
Feng Shengxuan smiled and said, âEldest Uncle, this is my gift to you and Eldest Aunt. I hope youâll accept them.â
With that, Feng Shengxuan presented the gifts that he had prepared for Nuannuanâs Eldest Uncle and Aunt.
Nuannuan noticed that the box was stamped with Phoenix Pavilionâs logoâanother listed company under the Imperial Phoenix Group. The jade in Phoenix Pavilion were all raw stones sourced from the riverbeds of Mustapha and Naboo. Meanwhile, those raw stones that contained jade, especially top-grade raw stones, had all been carefully selected by Nuannuan. They were all first-class goods.
This should be ample enough as an apology to Eldest Uncle.
âThese are my Second Uncle and Second Aunt-in-law. You should know my Second Uncle, right? Donât tell me thereâs another conflict between you two?â Nuannuan asked concernedly.
Feng Shengxuan said, âHello, Second Uncle. Hello, Second Aunt. I didnât expect Nuannuan to be the little princess of the Nangong family, so Iâve been a bit more tyrannical in the past. I hope Grandpa and all the uncles wonât hold it against me.â
Then, Feng Shengxuan presented Second Uncle and Second Aunt jade from Phoenix Pavilion.
Only then did Nuannuan realize that Imperial Phoenix Group and Imperial Palace Group often fought over some international resources. Since the Nangong family was a military and political family, they would rather not be too ruthless. Therefore, under normal circumstances, it was always Emperor Phoenix Group who won in their fights. Due to that, Imperial Phoenix Group and Imperial Palace Group were not on good terms internationally.
After offending Nuannuanâs Eldest Uncle and Second Uncleâs family, Nuannuan thought that her Third Uncle, Director of the Foreign Affairs Office, would have nothing to do with Feng Shengxuan. After asking around, she found out that her Third Uncle had once gone on a business trip to Sab as the Director of Foreign Affairs Office. He had originally wanted to meet a parliament member of Sab, but because of the terrible relationship between Imperial Phoenix and Imperial Palace Group, Feng Shengxuan double-booked the parliament member and sent him out to play golf instead. Thus, it wasted Nuannuanâs Third Uncleâs efforts after going through the trouble of setting up the meet.
Other than that, Feng Shengxuan managed to get into some sort of conflict with all of Nuannuanâs elder brothers. Feng Shengxuan had even iced out Nuannuanâs sister-in-law, the A-list actress in Camino who retired from showbiz, when he attempted to win the Oscars.
