Compared to Yang Fan and Gao Hai’s busyness, Lin Feng hasn’t been idle these days either.
For Lin Feng, being famous has its perks but also brings troubles.
One day to fa, known across the world!
The title of top scorer of the college entrance exam made Lin Feng the focus of dia buzz, with reporters appearing around the neighborhood every day, ready to interview him.
As for the enthusiastic neighbors, they were everywhere.
From eight in the morning till dinner ti, the house was always crowded with people; those unaware might have thought his ho was a mahjong parlor.
At first, Lin Fang and Old Ma were very hospitable, after all, they had just moved to the neighborhood and were not familiar with the neighbors, so they specially bought many pastries and fruits, fearing to slight the neighbors.
But after a day, they felt their smiles grow stiff and throats parched.
When the weekend ended and Old Ma went to work, leaving only Lin Fang at ho, she found it difficult to handle alone, so she uninstalled the doorbell. Even if a neighbor knocked, she pretended not to be ho, otherwise she’d be driven to madness.
"Why not buy a villa? I can afford it now," Lin Feng suggested.
"Buy a villa? This place is just fine," Lin Fang instantly rejected upon hearing it.
In Lin Fang’s view, buying a villa is a waste of money.
The money would be better spent on Pills to enhance Lin Feng’s strength.
Though she had no talent in cultivation, Lin Fang knew that the expenses for a Demon Spirit Master were much greater than for a Martial Artist. Although Red Cloud University promised Lin Feng a scholarship of a hundred million a year, it was uncertain if it would be enough.
And having grown accustod to the dark, damp, only thirty-square-ter small apartnt they lived in, their current place seed exceedingly comfortable.
Both she and Old Ma were satisfied, reluctant to move.
As for the overly enthusiastic neighbors, once Lin Feng went off to university, things would naturally quiet down.
Seeing that his mother was unwilling, Lin Feng didn’t insist.
Even though he beca the top college entrance exam scorer, Lin Feng’s lifestyle remained unchanged. Beyond spending more ti with family, the rest of his ti was all in Senhai.
Having broken through to beco a Martial Artist, there were few Demon Beasts in Senhai that could threaten Lin Feng.
With Nightmare well-fed on a multitude of Demon Spirits, Lin Feng’s cultivation speed continued to accelerate alongside Nightmare’s growing strength.
But soon, this rhythm of life was disrupted by the 27 endorsent contracts Yang Fan sent over.
A total of 27 endorsent contracts, with two companies backing out without reason, the rest were all accepted by Lin Feng.
For the days that followed, Lin Feng left early and returned late, busy with shooting comrcials and attending business events. After nearly a month, he finally managed to wrap everything up.
The 25 endorsent contracts, ranging from food to household items, with terms from one to five years, brought Lin Feng a total inco of 1.4 billion.
For this, Lin Feng was quite satisfied.
When Lin Feng returned ho after attending an event for the last company, he found his mother with red-rimd eyes, large teardrops continually falling, while his elder sister comforted her by the side.
"Mom, what’s wrong?" Lin Feng’s expression changed, and he quickly asked.
It was the first ti in years that he had seen his mother cry.
In Lin Feng’s mory, even ten years ago, when that man left ho, his mother only wallowed and cried for half a year.
After that, his mother beca very strong, no matter if work was not going well, no matter how hard or tough life got, she always faced them with a smile.
And now, what could have made her so sad?
"Who bullied you?"
Lin Feng clenched his fists, a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.
Lin Feng cared about few things in this world.
He didn’t care about world peace, nor about fa and money; those were just tools. What he truly cared about was his family’s happiness.
Family was Lin Feng’s reverse scale!
If soone attempted to harm them, Lin Feng would unleash his most crazed and violent side.
"No, no one bullied Mom; it’s just that Mom received a call from Uncle."
For so reason, seeing the look in her brother’s eyes at this ti, Lin Kerou’s heart skipped a beat, her body grew sowhat rigid and cold. She quickly explained.
She didn’t realize it was Lin Feng’s murderous intent that sent chills through her body.
The current Lin Feng was recognized as a super-genius, yet in everyone’s eyes, he was rely an inexperienced student.
But what they didn’t know was that Lin Feng had previously survived from a mountain of corpses and a Sea of Blood, with hundreds and thousands of enemies and Demon Beasts having died by his hand.
Though his hands were not currently bloodstained, that murderous intent was already embedded deep within his soul.
"Uncle?"
Lin Feng frowned slightly; he knew so things about his mother’s relatives but had never interacted with them.
When that man left their ho, with all their savings spent, his mother couldn’t find a job and once brought them to a grand gate.
The three of them stood at the entrance, facing the wary gaze of the security and curious looks from others, too hesitant to enter.
At that ti, Lin Feng didn’t know whose house it was; he only knew there were many soldiers in military uniforms guarding it, presumably a place where only people of high status and position could live.
Later, his elder sister secretly told him it was their grandfather’s house.
Lin Feng couldn’t understand then why his mother didn’t dare enter her own father’s house.
As he grew older, Lin Feng vaguely understood that it might have been because his mother didn’t dare go back.
Although Lin Feng never returned to that place, he knew it was a villa district nad Zidong Villa, where Jiang City’s military and high-ranking officials lived.
Lin Feng speculated that his grandfather might be a military man, and to be qualified to live in such a villa, he must carry at least the rank of a general.
Lin Feng was young and naive at the ti, but from his sister’s words, he guessed that when their mother eloped with that man, their grandfather disapproved.
They must have eloped.
From a military man’s perspective, having lived a life of military service with strict family discipline, a daughter eloping with a man against his wishes would surely be disgraceful and infuriating.
For their mother, opposing her father’s wishes, she gave up everything but ended up abandoned.
Perhaps precisely because of this, their mother hesitated for a long ti at the door, ultimately lacking the courage to face it.
"Was it seeing the news?"
Lin Feng mused in his heart.
In his previous life, their family never interacted with his grandfather’s family.
It’s likely that his grandfather’s family reached out only after seeing him on television.
To this, Lin Feng felt calm, without any joy or excitent about reuniting with relatives.
From Lin Feng’s point of view, being in the sa Jiang City, given his grandfather’s identity, finding his mother wouldn’t be difficult if they cared, but reality proved otherwise.
They were like strangers, having never t.
"Xiaofeng, tomorrow is your grandpa’s seventieth birthday. Your uncle called and wants to bring you and your sister ho. What do you think?" Lin Fang, her eyes red, asked her son.
Clearly, she wished to go but was fearful and hesitant to face it, simultaneously worried her son might not agree.
"Then let’s go. We’ll go out and pick a gift later,"
Lin Feng sat by his mother; her confusion and unease pained him.
Gently wiping away his mother’s tears, Lin Feng smiled and said, "Mom, you don’t have to worry. No matter what happened before, your son is now the national top scorer in the college entrance exam; who dares look down on us?"
"Yes, who dares look down on us," Lin Kerou also smiled and said.
Her brother’s reputation now spread across the country, and even the dia dubbed him a future All-Star of the Glory Professional Alliance.
Lin Kerou knew that in just a month, her brother earned over a billion from endorsent deals—who would dare to belittle them, who would even have the qualification to do so.
"Alright, Mom listens to you."
Seeing her children say so, Lin Fang finally felt much more at ease, losing much of her hesitation, her face revealing a relieved smile.
Her son has always been her reliance, her greatest pride.
And seeing his mother’s smile, Lin Feng smiled too.
He loved seeing his mother smile the most; any troubles and difficulties seed insignificant in the face of that smile.
