"Of course, I’ll accept... Teacher Xu is so kind and beautiful. Why would I refuse the opportunity to have dinner with you?" Lin Feng chuckled, his expression perfectly natural.
"Stop it, you smooth-talker... Since you agreed, I’ll ask my grandfather to arrange a ti!" Xu Jing finally nodded with a smile.
After leaving Xu Jing’s office, Lin Feng went straight back to the classroom and sat next to Wang Zikai, whose face was still flushed with excitent.
"Brother Feng, this is our class registration form. Look at the situation in the athletics section. Our dorm has signed up for all of them. As we initially agreed, Yang Ming will run 100 ters, Zhong Jialiang will run 200 ters, and I signed up for the 400 ters and 800 ters. That leaves the 1,500-ter and 3,000-ter races—the two big ones—for you to tackle, Brother Feng..." Wang Zikai chuckled dryly, clearly a bit frustrated that in their Industrial Managent class, which had many male students, no one else had signed up for the track and field events.
"Humph! Not a single other male student signed up for the track events?" Lin Feng was speechless and spoke with a hint of sarcasm. "It seems Li Zhi’s ’promotional work’ was quite effective, wasn’t it? It’s understandable to worry about sothing happening in middle or long-distance races above 800 ters, but for no one to sign up for the 100-ter sprint? That’s ridiculous! It looks like we really can’t let Li Zhi continue as class monitor."
"Brother Feng, although we all know this, it’s not easy to get Li Zhi to resign!" Wang Zikai pointed to himself, Yang Ming, and Zhong Jialiang, and said with a wry smile, "Apart from everyone knowing that you’re Impressive, Brother Feng, we few know our own capabilities—we don’t have any real strength. We’re just signing up for the sake of participation; there’s no real chance of us winning any prizes... Looks like we’re going to hold you back!"
Although Zhong Jialiang and Yang Ming looked a little unconvinced by this, they ultimately didn’t argue. They thought that even though they played basketball regularly and were in decent shape, how could they possibly match professional athletes from the School of Physical Education in terms of explosive sprint speed?
It was almost laughable; the three of them even figured that making it to the second round of heats would be an achievent in itself!
"That’s all right. The school sports et isn’t until next week, and we have two days to prepare over the weekend. Enough ti for to give you special training!" Lin Feng looked at Wang Zikai and the other two, smiling calmly, a cunning glint in his eyes.
"Special training?" Wang Zikai, Yang Ming, and Zhong Jialiang exchanged puzzled glances, shook their heads, and then asked, "What special training?"
"You’ll know when the ti cos." Lin Feng chuckled, keeping them in suspense.
His morning classes ended without any incident. Lin Feng was planning to grab lunch at the school cafeteria, then head back to Jincheng residential area with Ning Aoxue and Su Zi once they had finished their afternoon classes. Unexpectedly, his phone suddenly rang.
He picked it up to see it was from an unknown number and lazily answered, "Who is this?"
"Is this Lin Feng? I am Cao Ying’s mother. Can we et for lunch today? I am waiting for you in the Spring Dawn room at Longyue Building!"
The voice on the other end was elegant, but her tone was sowhat brusque, even cold. She spoke quickly, in a commanding manner, and hung up without even waiting for Lin Feng to reply. It was quite perplexing.
It was only after the busy tone sounded that Lin Feng processed what had happened. Did the woman on the phone just say she was Cao Ying’s mother?
Does that an... it was a call from the Mayor’s wife?
Well, if it was the Mayor’s wife, her arrogance was sowhat understandable... After all, she was probably used to being imperious!
However, Lin Feng himself was quite an arrogant person. To be suddenly treated so haughtily, even if it was by the Mayor’s wife, still made him feel rather uncomfortable...
In the end, Lin Feng decided to call Cao Ying first to ask about the situation.
Lin Feng found Cao Ying’s phone number and dialed it.
The call was answered even before the first ring had finished.
The voice on the other end was familiar.
"Lin Feng, right? I’m Cao Ying’s mother. Don’t bother trying to sound out Little Ying by calling her. She’s sitting right next to . Think carefully about whether you’re coming or not!"
Damn it... Lin Feng hadn’t expected his opponent to be so cunning as to have Cao Ying’s phone... It seed he really had no choice but to go!
Although he didn’t know what Cao Ying’s mother wanted to say to him, Lin Feng could sense the hostility in her tone. Cao Ying must be in a very difficult situation right now.
As a man, when he knew his woman was in trouble, he had to put aside any dissatisfaction and help her out of her predicant first!
With no other option, Lin Feng had to ask Ning Aoxue and Su Zi for another short leave. Then, he drove according to the route he found online to the Longyue Building’s parking lot ntioned by Cao Ying’s mother, located within a lush estate in the Hexi District.
From information on the internet, Lin Feng learned that Longyue Building was an extrely famous high-end club in Jiangzhou City. Its mbers were affluent individuals from the city and even from abroad. It had always maintained an air of mystery within the political and business circles of Jiangzhou City. For ordinary people, it was an unattainable destination.
Compared to Tianxing Club, Longyue Building had a cleaner background and a more refined environnt. The tranquil estate was exquisitely designed, featuring pavilions, rockeries, and flowing water. It felt like being imrsed in springti, and Lin Feng could even hear the clear chirping of birds.
Lin Feng had just parked his Passat in the quiet parking lot when a handso young man in a black suit, tie, and earpiece approached his car.
"Hello, sir. This is the exclusive parking lot of Longyue Building. It is not open to the public. Could you please show your mbership card?"
This handso young man appeared very polite, but Lin Feng could clearly detect a hint of disdain in his eyes... It seed his second-hand Passat hadn’t impressed the fellow.
"I don’t have a mbership card. To be honest, I don’t really want to co to a place like this... But soone invited . I only ca because I had to," Lin Feng rolled down the car window and said indifferently.
"HMPH..." The young man scoffed lightly, an almost imperceptible look of disdain on his face. "Then please tell who invited you. If they are an ordinary mber, I’m afraid they don’t have the privilege to invite outside guests into Longyue Building!"
"I don’t know her na... But she said she’s waiting for in the Spring Dawn room; you can check for ," Lin Feng said lazily.
"Are you joking with ?!" The young man in the suit’s expression imdiately hardened, staring at Lin Feng as if he were a petty thief.
