The Black Mantis appeared here, so his target must be Feng Feifei. Previously, I heard he wanted to leave the Underground Black Boxing, and now he's appearing here as if he knows about the Feng Family's affairs too?

Zhu Fan thought for a long time, if he knows about Feng Qing, then leaving the Underground Black Boxing is indeed a correct decision. As long as he wins Feng Feifei over, the entire Feng family's wealth would be his.

That's right, Zhu Fan approached Feng Feifei primarily for the Feng family's future fortune because he had someone investigate Feng Qing's private lawyer. It turns out Feng Qing had already drafted a will, specifying that after his death, the Feng family business would be handled by Feng Feifei, including all the investments in other companies.

In other words, as long as he has Feng Feifei in his grasp, it is equivalent to acquiring the whole Feng family.

But now, with Black Mantis intervening, Zhu Fan found himself in a bit of a dilemma. Judging by today's events, he's lost to Black Mantis; the proximity advantage is indeed very sensible.

Feng Feifei has known Black Mantis for quite some time, while he is just a newcomer—winning her heart is no easy task.

As for Xiaofan, he was also concerned about Zhu Fan. However, he was somewhat relieved to meet him here. Unexpectedly, the other party must have something to do with Red Butterfly, and his approach to Feifei must be ill-intentioned. However, this encounter provided him with an excellent excuse to leave Underground Black Boxing.

Going with the flow, success came naturally; even Xiaofan didn't expect things to progress so smoothly.

Of course, if Xiaofan knew that Zhu Fan was the boss of Red Butterfly in front of him, he would probably be more astonished.

Yes, Zhu Fan is indeed the boss of Red Butterfly, and he was the predetermined candidate twelve years ago. His graduation from Ukulele University was not a facade, and the people behind him put in arduous efforts to nurture him.

His intention to personally win over Feng Feifei was not solely for money. It's because Feng Feifei is indeed the type of woman he likes. His so-called love at first sight is genuine.

But today, the leading role is neither Xiaofan nor Zhu Fan, the boss of Red Butterfly, but rather the Patriarch of the Feng family, Feng Feifei's biological father.

When Feng Qing came over, the music at the outdoor banquet stopped. Feng Qing appeared leaner, but he still looked spirited, nothing like the terminally ill state that rumors suggested.

"Dad, why are you out here?" Feng Feifei hurriedly stepped forward to ask, puzzled by her father's ability to walk out of bed.

"Hmm? I just saw you guys dancing, so I came over to join in the fun. Why not introduce your dance partner to your dad?" Feng Qing asked softly, smiling.

"He..." Upon hearing this, Feng Feifei's cheeks blushed slightly. She didn't know how to introduce Xiaofan. Xiaofan was indeed someone she liked, but they couldn't be together. Moreover, he didn't fit her father's standard, which was to find a wealthy son-in-law, marry, and then have him help revive the Feng family business. Obviously, the salary of just 20,000 yuan last month from Shen Zhifan was far from achieving that.

"Hello, Mr. Feng, I'm Shen Zhifan, a close friend of Sister Feng." Xiaofan greeted proactively, calm and poised.

"Hmm, very spirited young man, but, Feifei, this young fellow seems a bit younger than you." Feng Qing asked with interest.

"Just making a friend, who cares about age." Feng Feifei's voice was very soft, shy, and charming.

She knew very well what her father's question meant, and she couldn't deny it was a misunderstanding, leaving the explanation for later.

"Hello, Mr. Feng. My name is Zhu Fan. It's my first time here, and I'm really happy to meet your daughter. Although it's a bit sudden, I originally intended to propose to you to marry Miss Feifei..."

Zhu Fan's familiarity didn't surprise everyone, but his sudden proposal took everyone aback.

"But now, it seems I've been presumptuous." Zhu Fan glanced at Xiaofan and Feng Feifei and further added.

"Hahaha, Mr. Zhu, you're quite direct. Your visit today is already a show of respect to my Feng Family. But of course, I have something to announce today."

It was happening. Feng Qing was about to reveal the truth.

Under everyone's gaze, he slowly walked over to the music booth, took a microphone, and cleared his throat.

"Ladies and gentlemen... I sincerely thank you for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend our family banquet. Actually, the reason I invited everyone here today is to announce something. There have been rumors outside that I'm terminally ill. Of course, those are lies..."

At this point, everyone began to murmur among themselves. Meanwhile, Feng Feifei displayed a face full of confusion, her expression started to calm.

Xiaofan gently held her hand, showing his support and comfort.

Feng Feifei nodded slightly, once again standing upright.

"Indeed, I am ill, and it's a severe illness, gastric cancer..."

His grip tightened, once again feeling Feng Feifei's tension, malignant tumor; it's not much different from being terminally ill.

"Luckily, it was discovered early, and it hasn't spread. So, my attending doctor advised making arrangements for surgery as soon as possible. My surgery has been scheduled for tomorrow, and I've specifically invited everyone here for two reasons: to introduce my eldest daughter, Feng Feifei, and during my surgery and recovery period, all major and minor matters of the company will be managed by my eldest daughter, Feng Feifei. From this moment, she is the acting chairwoman and general manager of Starlight Group."

"What?"

"Isn't there a mistake?"

Feng Qing's words left Feng Feifei's younger brother and sister in disbelief, their expressions were exceptionally shocked.

"And then, considering my illness requires major surgery, removing three-quarters of my stomach. There's the possibility of unexpected deterioration or spreading, and even the doctors can't be certain. Therefore, if my condition worsens during surgery or recovery and I pass away, my inheritance will be transferred to my eldest daughter, Feng Feifei. This has been arranged with my private lawyer."

"Daddy, I don't agree! Why should all of our Feng Family's money be given to this bastard? Daddy, have you gone mad?" Feng Zhenzhen immediately stepped forward and confronted her father.

"Yes, Dad! I am your only son. If you die, I'll be the one to see you off. I still need to carry on our Feng family bloodline; doing this means our Feng family has no future!" Feng Baolai, being the only son of the Feng family, was even more aggrieved.
