Ling Jiahui, 24 years old, the only son of the top Party Secretary of Jiangnan Province, a master’s graduate from Jinghua University, currently the secretary at the Mayor’s Office in Xijing City! Handso appearance, strong background, with a flawless resu, such a man is definitely the perfect match in the eyes of most girls...
After listening to Li Liping talk about Ling Jiahui’s details, Lin Feng’s first reaction was...
"This guy is a potential winner... you don’t fancy him?"
After hearing Lin Feng’s words, Li Liping glanced at him with a resentful look and snorted lightly, "I’m not a fool, of course I can see he’s a potential winner. The problem is, he’s a potential winner, does that an I have to listen to my dad’s arrangents and get engaged to him? There are other n better than him in this world too, do I not need to consider my own feelings?"
"You’re making a valid point, choosing a husband shouldn’t just be about conditions..." Lin Feng looked at Li Liping, speaking earnestly, "Speaking of which, I’m actually quite a bit better than him..."
"Pfft..." Upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, Li Liping couldn’t help but laugh out loud, "Lin Feng, stop being funny, I know your situation well... To be honest, even in Jiangzhou University, your looks are just above average. If it weren’t for my cousin liking you, I wouldn’t have even noticed you..."
"Hey, hey, hey... it’s not good to lie against your conscience like that!" Lin Feng pretended to want to settle accounts with Li Liping, dramatically pointing at her and loudly explaining, "This handso guy’s charm is unmatched within Jiangzhou University’s range, and you’re calling just above average. Is ’above average’ the highest grade in your standards?"
"Your cheek is unmatched though..." Li Liping looked at Lin Feng with a smile, shaking her head helplessly.
"Of course, without a thick skin, how else can you flirt with girls, I’m not denying that..." Lin Feng nodded, not arguing.
"Haha... Lin Feng, you’re so entertaining..." Li Liping laughed with a faint shimr at the corner of her eyes, gently covering her mouth with her jade-like hand, and whispered, "I know you’re doing this to cheer up, making jokes on purpose... Actually, you don’t need to do this, I’m fine. Just chatting with you today makes feel very content."
Lin Feng shrugged indifferently. He’s not a sentintal person, but the lancholy in Li Liping’s eyes was almost turning to frost; how could Lin Feng not notice. The so-called deepest sorrow lies in a heart that seemingly dies. Li Liping was clearly unwilling to get engaged to that Ling Jiahui, yet she had to pretend not to care. Perhaps her heart was gradually dying too...
"Senior, you don’t have to wrong yourself like this..." Lin Feng frowned, looking at Li Liping with so heartache and said blandly, "That guy isn’t soone you can’t afford to offend. Aside from having a father who’s a Party Secretary, his conditions aren’t unbeatable in China. If you really don’t want to get engaged to him, just tell your father directly..."
"The problem is... he does have a father who’s a Party Secretary..." Li Liping looked at Lin Feng with a bitter smile, "Forget it, Lin Feng, you don’t need to comfort anymore. I’ll adjust my mindset; after all, engagent isn’t marriage, I still have at least two years..."
"You’re clearly unwilling, so why force yourself to do sothing like this..." Lin Feng’s expression changed slightly, finally feeling sowhat uncomfortable, "Is there really no other solution for your father’s company?"
"Lin Feng..." Li Liping stared at Lin Feng, speaking solemnly, "How do you not understand, even if I don’t agree to the engagent, even if my father’s company can get through this predicant, our Li Family can’t afford to offend the Ling Family. Once agreed upon, it can’t be undone!"
Is it really that unaffordable? Lin Feng nodded with a cold smile, taking a deep breath, then gazing intently at Li Liping, and asked blandly, "Then let ask you this, does that Ling Jiahui even know you, does he like you?"
"I don’t know..." Li Liping shook her head, lightly biting her lower lip, and said blandly, "I don’t know if he knows , but I do know that when he was at Jinghua University, he had a girlfriend—actually, more than one. But it’s not surprising; with his conditions, even if he didn’t reveal his identity, there would be plenty of girls who’d like him..."
Li Liping spoke with a tone of indifference about the fact that Ling Jiahui had many girlfriends, as if she didn’t care at all...
Lin Feng frowned, "So, you’re saying before his family arranged the engagent for him, he basically didn’t know you existed?"
"I suppose so..." Li Liping said blandly, her face devoid of joy or sorrow, as if discussing sothing that had nothing to do with her.
Lin Feng felt a wave of oppression, thinking what happiness could co from such a purely political marriage? In the minds of ordinary people, even if that Ling Jiahui had a slightly rebellious attitude, he probably wouldn’t even have a slight affection for Li Liping. Assuming she attracted him with her looks and he agreed to his family’s arrangent, he’d probably just see her as a tool for sexual relief and childbirth. Being well-behaved would be unlikely, and with a nasty personality, he might even bring won ho to fool around...
Thinking about the possible situations Li Liping could face later, Lin Feng felt a strange irritation rising from his heart, making him very uncomfortable and uneasy...
"No, I have to intervene in this matter..." Lin Feng looked into Li Liping’s eyes and said blandly, "I’m not a good person, nor a ddleso one, but that guy surnad Ling makes uncomfortable, so I won’t let you beco his woman in such an unwilling, unclear manner..."
Li Liping gazed at Lin Feng with so surprise, opening her mouth slightly in astonishnt, "Lin Feng, are you crazy, why suddenly say such things? Wake up, don’t be impulsive, is this kind of thing sothing you can ddle with..."
In Li Liping’s eyes, Lin Feng was just an ordinary college student, even if he was skilled and could make money from fighting, having a few million worth of wealth, but such status probably wouldn’t even catch the eye of the Ling Family. It’s known that a family with the top Party Secretary should not be underestimated, even her uncle Cao Tiannan dared not interfere with her affairs, she had already resigned to her fate...
If Lin Feng tangled with such a terrifying Ling Family, who knows what kind of suppression and retaliation he might face...
To avoid worrying Li Liping, Lin Feng didn’t firmly assert himself but instead said calmly, "Senior, don’t worry, I have my limits..."
"Is that so?" Li Liping suspiciously glanced at Lin Feng’s expression, unable to determine Lin Feng’s intentions. Lin Feng’s emotional transition was so abrupt, could he really impulsively do sothing to help her?
"By the way, don’t you have classes today, Senior?" Lin Feng suddenly asked out of the blue.
