Feng Xinying was surprised when he said that. Looking at her shocked expressions, her trainer smiled.
"How do you know me or my family?" she asked.
The trainer bowed his head and replied, "Let us begin with your training. I will let you know once we finish the training."
The training started right on time, and there were vigorous sessions that involved her strengthening her muscles. Her trainer was a very strict man who made her follow all the regimes. The session ended at 4PM in the evening after which she was really exhausted. Although she craved to go back to her room, she asked her trainer, how did he know about her and her father.
He smiled and said, "This institute belongs to Feng Zhantian."
"What?" Feng Xinying was shocked.
The trainer nodded with a smile. "It was Feng Zhantian who funded it. The person who runs it is my uncle, Su Haobing. He was your father's right hand man in the underworld."
"Underworld? What are you saying? My father wasn't into all that," she replied in disbelief.
"Feng Xinying, with a company as huge as Feng Conglomerate, it is natural that you have enemies and one of the biggest enemies was an organization called 'Crocodile'. It was important to keep you and his family safe and so all this was created," he said with seriousness.
"I didn't know that…" she said as goose bumps lined her skin.
"My uncle was doing all his dirty jobs. He is a well-trained man in martial arts and he is a shooter too. However, as he became old, your father made this building and gifted it to me only because he loved this art and wanted him to retire peacefully."
Feng Xinying was amazed. "This organization called 'Crocodile' – does it still exist?" she asked.
"Yes, it does and they say that it's leader known as "The Crocodile" lives in shadows. No one knows who he is and they also say that he is too dangerous."
"Am I at risk of being targeted by him?" she asked.
"Maybe… we don't know… but it is rumored that your mother's accident was a planned one, which was a revenge against Feng Zhantian," he said.
Feng Xinying's mouth opened. She didn't know those details. "This is not correct! My mother died because she couldn't control her car."
"Yes, that was what Feng Zhantian told everyone because his hands were deep in the underworld in those days and he didn't want anyone to know about how his wife died. However, after her death, you became his priority. He kept you safe at all costs. He became very lonely, to the point of going insane but then he would look at you and remember his wife and that kept him going. He did have a lot of affairs but then how can you blame a thirty year young man with no wife. The fact he never married for so long was only because of you."
Feng Xinying blood drained from her face. All the time she had been cursing her father and this is what he did for her. She had truly been an ingrate. She remembered what he shouted at her when she was angry with him getting Xie Weihui to the house. He married her because he must have felt guilty about her. She looked at him and asked, "How do you all this?"
"I am the most trusted man of my uncle and have been brought up to take care of Feng Zhangtian and people associated with him," he replied.
"Does that mean?..."
"That means that I am your right hand man after my uncle and your father," he completed her sentence.
Feng Xinying was bereft. She didn't know that she was also associated with an underworld mafia. Associated wasn't the right word, she was actually the head of that organization that was dormant for years and only training. Was this institute a garb under something sinister that her father created?
There was too much information to process. She turned around and ran away from there. The trainer, Su Lang, watched her going away. He was happy to have someone from whom he would take proper orders now. The master of the organization had returned.
Feng Zinying went to her room and became occupied with so many thoughts that she didn't know when she finished taking shower and dozed off to sleep. It was 10PM when she woke up with a start. She felt hungry and went downstairs to the mess to have her food. However, the mess was closed. Dejected, she came back to her room. When she arrived, she found a kind looking old man standing right over with a tray of food in his hands.
He came near him and said, "Young miss, have your food."
Feng Xinying was impressed that the management took good care of their students. They even sent someone to her with food. She took the tray and said thank you. She thought that perhaps he was some worker. She started going inside her room, when she heard him say, "You look just like your mother."
Feng Xinying turned sharply.
"I am Su Haobing, the man who runs this facility," he introduced himself.
