Way Back Into Love (Essie) novel Chapter 820

Mili and Dot squatted aside to watch the battle. Although their surnames were Rong, they had never regarded Fell as an enemy. In the past, when Fell pursued their mother, he treated them very well.

"Uncle, didn't the Qin family and the Rong family become relatives by marriage before? Why did you become an enemy?" Mili asked curiously.

"It is said that the marriage had resulted in the animosity," Fell shrugged and said casually.

Hearing that, Essie's heart skipped a beat. If the Qin family found that Alice was a fake, would their relationship with the Xu family be completely stiff?

She glanced at Zac. Was that what he was thinking? If the Xu family broke up with the Qin family, they would be 'loyal' to be the union of the Rong family. Maybe they would work together to deal with the Qin family and destroy the Qin family!

She took a deep breath secretly. The cooperation between the Xu family and the Qin family was indeed a win-win one. With the help of the Qin family, the Xu family's exploration of the market in South Asia was quite smooth. If this marriage broke up and the Xu family and the Qin family turned against each other, the Xu family's business in South Asia would suffer a heavy blow, and the hundreds of billions of investment might be in vain.

She would never allow such a thing to happen. As the daughter-in-law of the Rong family, she had the obligation to protect the interests of the Rong family, but as the daughter of the Xu family, she was more responsible to protect the interests of the Xu family.

If that was what Zac wanted, she must find a way to resolve the crisis.

While she was thinking, Mili's voice came again, "Isn't marriage a good thing? Why does it turn each other into an enemy?"

"At that time, your father and I were not born yet. I don't know what happened exactly. But I heard that your elder grandfather and my aunt died a horrible and weird death. Your elder grandfather used to be the crown prince of the Rong family, and my aunt was the only daughter of my grandfather. She is the apple of his eye and is very valued. My grandfather always said that it was your Rong family who killed my aunt. I believe that your Rong family also thought that it was my aunt who killed your elder grandpa, so the two families became enemies." As Fell spoke, he glanced at Zac and asked, "Is what I said reasonable?"

Zac didn't answer, as if acquiesced.

"If my elder grandfather is still alive, my grandfather won't be the leader of the Rong family," said Mili with a sigh.

"So it's a good thing for your family." Fell sneered.

"Is my elder grandfather stronger than my grandfather?" Mili asked, tilting her head.

"I don't know. I only know that your elder grandfather used to be the No. one playboy in Dragon City." Fell giggled.

"Uncle Fell, so you are better than him." Mili covered her mouth and snickered.

"In fact, I feel a little humble of myself compare to him." It seemed that the deceased elder master of the Rong family was more romantic than him.

Zac's face darkened. "Are you trying to prove yourself innocent?"

"I'm just telling the truth. You can correct if I'm wrong." Fell sneered.

Essie was curious about the love and hatred between Zac's uncle and Fell's aunt. She blinked her eyes and said thoughtfully, "Fell, according to what you said, are my uncle and your aunt killed by love?"

Hearing this, Mili glanced at Alice, and then patted on Fell's shoulder with her small hand. "Uncle Fell, if that's the case, you must be careful. After marriage, you have to keep yourself loyal to my aunt, in case my aunt gets angry and..." She stopped and made a gesture of cutting her throat.

"Little girl, you've watched a lot of TV dramas," said Fell, choking hard. He was sure that Alice didn't have the guts to do that.

The game between the two had lasted for three hours. At last, Zac won a small victory. Fell was a little unconvinced. It was just his carelessness that made him win by a fluke.

"You have been a loser to me since you were five years old. Just accept your fate." A mocking smile appeared on Zac's face.

Fell was furious. "You are a crafty man. You are too sophisticated."

"All's fair in war." Zac sneered.

"Playing chess is just for fun. It doesn't matter whether you win or lose." Bob smiled and invited them to have tea together.

Taking a sip of the black tea, Fell said slowly, "You have four children. I must have five children in the future. I have to have more children than you."

"It doesn't matter. I'll let my sons have a few more children and surpass the number of your grandsons," Zac responded unhurriedly.

"If I have more sons than you, I must have more grandsons than you." Fell snorted.

"It depends on your ability." Zac sneered.

Hearing the conversation between the two, Essie was in a mess. "Not for children," she cleared her throat and reminded them.

Zac and Fell finally shut up.

Dot touched his chin and said in a low voice, "It seems that the grudge between the Qin family and the Rong family can't be resolved in the generation of dad and Uncle Fell."

"A murder caused by the marriage. So the marriage is a double-edged sword. It can not only make the alliance of two clans, but also make two clans enemies," Mili said in a grown-up tone.

"The affair between the uncle of the Rong family and the aunt of the Qin family doesn't affect the relationship between Fell and Zac. In fact, there is no need to take it too seriously," Lucy said.

Zac and Fell stared at each other without saying anything. They didn't think so. Essie was even more pessimistic. If Fell knew that he had been tricked by Zac, he would definitely hate him for eighteen lifetimes.

On the other side of Dragon City, Jim was having hot pot with Janice. He hadn't seen Eva since the engagement ceremony.
