Chapter 715 This Time, I’ll Be Right Behind You

In the beginning, they had only wanted to participate in the competition for fun. After all, it was their first time participating in an official competition, so they did not have much confidence in themselves. They thought that they would just go as far as they could.

Even though Feng Tianrui told them that he wanted to participate in the competition with the intention of becoming the champion, they were skeptical about it. In the end, they were able to perform decently in the competition.

They had not expected to make it all the way to the finals!

As long as they took one step… As long as they took one more step forward, they would be able to obtain the highest honor. How could this not have excited them!

Moreover, their opponent was the Halber Battle Tem. This ignited the spirit of war within them.

No matter who they lost to, they could not lose to Halberd!

The members of Halberd maintained their high morale, and this made Feng Tianrui a little worried.

He looked at the phone in his hand, and He Sihui had sent him two messages.

The first message was, “Congratulations.”

The second message was, “Be careful. Don’t take it to heart.”

Feng Tianrui thought that his mother actually cared about him.

Although, as a research professor, she could not understand his passion for esports. He had not inherited her intelligence and love for science, so his mother must be disappointed.

Feng Tianrui gripped his phone tightly.

The next moment, his phone vibrated. It was Feng Le’an calling.

Feng Tianrui picked up the call. Feng Le’an was surprised that Feng Tianrui did not hang up on him. He was prepared to call Feng Tianrui a few more times before getting an answer.

Stunned, Feng Le’an first asked about his son’s well-being, “Son, you must have worked hard during this period of time. I secretly…ah, no, I watched your game. Son, you did great. You even made it to the finals! I’m proud of you!”

Feng Tianrui said coldly, “But you didn’t call ahead of time to congratulate me for winning the championship, did you?”

Feng Le’an choked. “Uh, this…” In order not to affect Feng Tianrui’s mood and distract him, hoping that he could enjoy himself during this period of time, Feng Le’an indeed had not contacted him.

And this time, he did call to tell Feng Tianrui a piece of news.

Feng Le’an considered his words, but he still braced himself and continued, “Well, Tianrui, your grandfather found out that you are participating in the competition, but he didn’t say anything. I took it as his acquiescence, as he had not brought it up.

“I originally wanted to let this matter slip, but he suddenly spoke yesterday…” “He said that if you don’t withdraw from the competition, he…he…”

Feng Lelan stammered a few times, but he did not continue.

Feng Tianrui spoke up, “Dad, if you can’t say it, let me help you complete it. Grandfather wants to say that if I don’t withdraw, he won’t recognize me as his grandson, right? He will erase me from the Feng family tree, right?”

Perhaps it was because he had already imagined this scene countless times in his heart, Feng Tianrui said it in an exceptionally calm and composed manner.

“In any case, it’s not the first time he said something like this. A year ago, he used such an excuse to threaten me. After I agreed, he even used the opportunity to have the battle team expel me. He wanted me to be cleansed and leave obediently.

“A year later, he’s using the same trick again. But this time, grandfather was really stuck at the right time.

“A year ago, he wanted me to voluntarily not participate in the league tournament. A year later, when I’m about to become the champion, he wants to pull me down from a step away from the top of the tower. When I’m just one step away from victory. It would make me feel even more pain and defeat.” Feng Tianrui said word by word, “Feng Zhiyi, he is indeed my good grandfather.”

A year ago, he would have been outraged. He wanted to ask Feng Zhiyi why he treated him like this?

Why was he unwilling to listen to the pursuit of his dream?

Why did he have to be so cruel, arbitrary, and despotic to crush his dreams? And his only reason was that he did not like it.

If that was the reason. But a year later, he no longer thought about that.

Because he was numb.

Perhaps elders always liked to say the words “I’m doing this for your own good” to restrain their children and have them follow the path they wanted them to follow. He was already very happy to have a father who would not interfere in his life. As an offset, he had a grandfather who wanted to interfere in his life till the very end.

When everyone saw him, they would say that he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. He was born in a wealthy family like the Feng family, and he had never had to worry about food and clothing in his life. He enjoyed endless wealth and glory. But the sad thing was that…he could not control his own life.

Feng Tianrui lowered his head and smiled self-deprecatingly.

When he received Feng Le’an’s call, he left the training room having had that foresight and went to a remote corner.

His hand unconsciously scratched the white wall and said softly, “Dad, this time…I’m not prepared to compromise.

“I know that you won’t support me and I will affect your position in the Feng family, but I still want to do this. I’m really selfish, right?”

On the other end of the phone, Feng Le’an did not say anything for a long time.

Feng Tianrui mocked himself in his heart.

What was he waiting for?

What was he hoping for?

Did he really think that Feng Le’an would forgive his unfilial son?

“Dad, there’s nothing else to say. I’ll hang up first.”

Feng Tianrui was about to hang up when Feng Le’an suddenly spoke up. He said, “No, it’s not like that.” On the other end of the phone, Feng Le’an’s voice was surprisingly calm. “Rui’er, I’ve never thought of you as a selfish and failed son. I can only say that I’m not a qualified father. With my ability, I can’t give you and Sihui a good life.

“Everything I have comes from the Feng family. Without the Feng family, I’m nothing. No one will come to please me. I have no career, no money, and I can’t support you and Sihui.

mon

“This is the reason why I can’t leave the Feng family. However, this is not the reason why you have to accept the Feng family’s arrangements for you.”

His voice gradually calmed down, “You have talent, ability, and perseverance to live the life you want. This is something I don’t have. I can only live like this for the rest of my life. However, you are different. You are still young, and there are many possibilities. I’m very happy that you have found one of the possibilities that you are willing to fight for.

“So, don’t hesitate, don’t be afraid, and just do it.”

The corners of Feng Tianrui’s eyes were moist, and his nose was stuffy.

“Father…”

Feng Le’an said softly, “I have saved a lot of money in the past few years. Even if I don’t work, I can still support you and Sihui. So, you have to work hard. In the future, you will have to support me and Sihui.

“In the future, you will be behind me.

“But this time, I’ll be behind you.

“Son.”
