Everyone initially thought it was terrifying enough, but they didn't expect Du Congrong to add another sentence, making the Du family hold their breath, somewhat hesitant to listen further.
"Dad... you say." Du Guangming's tone became urgent.
Although he was very scared, he still wanted to know what Du Congrong would say.
Du Congrong glanced at everyone and continued slowly, "Elder Li personally told me not to inquire about his identity or question it, because I am not qualified to know. Elder Li also said that not only should he respect Xia Feng, but even Elder Huang should do the same."
Du Congrong's words rendered the entire ward silent, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Elder Li's deep respect for Xia Feng was already enough to shock them. They hadn't expected Elder Li to personally say that Elder Huang felt the same.
If even Elder Huang was like this, then Xia Feng's identity was self-evident, wasn't it?
They didn't want to know his specific identity, nor were they qualified to know it, but they understood that they needed to show utmost respect to Xia Feng.
If Elder Huang was like this, what were they?
"I know you are very shocked. I was very shocked when I heard it myself, but there are some things we simply cannot access. I was originally going to die, but he was able to forcibly extend my life. This is something you probably didn't expect either?"
"This is practically bringing someone back from the dead, yet it's as simple as drinking water in his hands. Just as Elder Li said, there are some things we are not qualified to know, but I want to tell you one thing."
"From today onwards, Mr. Xia will be the most respected guest of our Du family, without exception. Anyone in the Du family who disrespects Mr. Xia will be expelled from the Du family, with no excuse for forgiveness," Du Congrong issued the most direct command.
Du Congrong's explanation had already scared the Du family silly.
Who would dare to disrespect Xia Feng now?
It was utterly impossible.
"Dad, we understand." Everyone nodded with solemn expressions.
"Alright, respect is something that should be held in the heart. I don't want you to be perfunctory with Mr. Xia. Such behavior is absolutely not allowed. Prepare a family banquet well tonight," Du Congrong waved his hand and warned them again.
"Yes." Everyone responded again.
Du Congrong was giving instructions to his children in the ward, unaware of this, Xia Feng had already gone out with Du Shihan.
Du Shihan first took Xia Feng to get acquainted with Yangcheng, and then around 11 o'clock, she took Xia Feng to the most luxurious tea restaurant in Yangcheng for a meal.
As people here liked to drink tea, tea restaurants were ubiquitous.
The tea restaurant Du Shihan brought Xia Feng to combined all the delicacies of Yangcheng, ensuring all ingredients were the freshest. Coupled with their taste and prices, it had slowly become the best tea restaurant in Yangcheng.
A meal here cost over a thousand per person.
This was considered quite expensive for a tea restaurant.
Ordinary office workers simply couldn't afford such high consumption.
"This place looks nice." As Xia Feng stepped out of the car, he looked up and praised.
"Yes, if we come later, we'll have to queue. That's why we came at 11 to avoid not getting a table," Du Shihan's face beamed with a smile seeing Xia Feng's satisfaction.
The three walked together towards the entrance of the tea restaurant.
Before they could even enter the tea restaurant, someone called out to He Yun on Xia Feng's left:
"He Yun, what are you doing here?"
He Yun looked back upon hearing the voice, her expression somewhat displeased. She casually replied, "Accompanying a friend for a meal."
The man walked closer, adopting a swaggering demeanor, and looked at Xia Feng, asking:
"Who is this pretty boy?"
