Ling Jiahui chuckled as he looked at Lin Feng, thinking he had exposed Lin Feng’s words and that Lin Feng would at least feel awkward after he revealed the truth. But to his disappointnt, Lin Feng not only didn’t feel embarrassed but continued to smile at him.
Lin Feng calmly took out a cigarette and a lighter, lit it with a click, scoffed, and then said lightly, "You’re right... nothing happened between Li Ping and just now..."
Is he admitting defeat? Ling Jiahui’s brows relaxed slightly, and a smug smile appeared on his face. Obviously, this kid nad Lin Feng, in terms of intelligence, was not his opponent at all...
Li Liping’s expression also changed slightly. She looked at Lin Feng, a bit nervous, worried that Lin Feng would beco angry and even resort to violence against Ling Jiahui...
"However..." Lin Feng looked at Ling Jiahui and said lightly, "When I said just now, that Li Ping is my woman, it’s no surprise that you would feel a bit surprised. Actually, I was quite surprised myself, because this is a decision I just made..."
Ling Jiahui’s face turned cold, and he cast a mocking glance at Lin Feng. His patience had reached its limit, and Lin Feng’s words had already crossed his line. In Ling Jiahui’s heart, although he was not very familiar with Li Liping, he already regarded Li Liping as his woman...
As the son of the number one secretary of Jiangnan Province, Ling Jiahui was rarely provoked like this to his face.
Li Liping was also embarrassed by Lin Feng’s words; she didn’t know whether Lin Feng ant it or was just trying to help her.
"Are you trying to cause trouble on purpose?" Ling Jiahui squinted his eyes slightly and stared at Lin Feng, speaking lightly.
So what if I am causing trouble on purpose? Do you really think I’m afraid of you... Lin Feng thought, not bothering to present a kind face to Ling Jiahui, but he didn’t say such arrogant words aloud.
"Senior..." Lin Feng bypassed Ling Jiahui, turned directly to Li Liping, and asked in a deep voice, "In front of Uncle Li, I want to ask you one question, do you not agree to this marriage?"
Ling Jiahui and Li Hong’s faces stiffened as soon as they heard this question. They knew Lin Feng’s question ant he intended to break all pretense...
Regarding Li Liping’s mindset, Li Hong understood; he knew this sudden marriage would embarrass his daughter. However, Li Hong did not think it was a major issue. After all, the Ling Family was a prestigious family in Jiangnan Province, and Ling Jiahui himself was considered young and accomplished, as well as quite good-looking. Although he heard that Jiahui had a reputation for being a playboy, he thought that all young n were like this, and after marriage, he would naturally settle down...
With this thought, Li Hong did not see this marriage as a re transactional union. He believed that for Li Liping, it was a perfect marriage...
"Lin Feng... I..." Li Liping looked at Lin Feng in surprise; Lin Feng’s actions had exceeded her expectations. She didn’t quite understand what Lin Feng intended to do...
Could he really think he can help ... Li Liping was both surprised and a bit moved.
"Enough, Lin Feng, who do you think you are? Just because you saved Li Ping, don’t think you can interfere in the affairs of our Li Family. You are rely a schoolmate of Li Ping’s. Her marriage has nothing to do with you! Please leave this room right now; I don’t want to see you... Otherwise, I will be unkind to you!" Li Hong glared angrily at Lin Feng and said in a deep voice.
Unkind to ... Lin Feng gave Li Hong a deep, ironic glance, feeling a sense of absurdity. If Li Hong weren’t Li Liping’s father, he truly wanted to see what exactly the man could do that he wouldn’t like...
Strangely, Li Liping didn’t exactly want Lin Feng to stand up for her, but seeing Li Hong yelling at Lin Feng made her feel slightly uncomfortable...
"That’s enough, Dad, Lin Feng is my guest. You can’t talk to him like that..." Li Liping asserted, glaring defiantly at Li Hong.
Li Hong glanced at Li Liping and said nothing. He had misunderstood Li Liping earlier and now was no longer acting on impulse.
"Lin Feng..." Li Liping turned back, looking at Lin Feng with pleading eyes and said softly, "You don’t have to worry about my affairs. You should leave first..."
At this mont, Ling Jiahui saw the change in Li Liping’s expression and finally felt a bit better. At least, Li Liping was behaving normally.
But Lin Feng showed no signs of backing down. He lowered his voice slightly but remained serious, "Senior, don’t worry about anything. I just want you to speak your true thoughts..."
Li Liping silently looked at Lin Feng, her calm expression finally revealing a hint of discomfort, her beautiful eyes seeming to shimr with unshed tears...
"Lin Feng... I..." Li Liping was montarily at a loss, her voice carrying a hint of emotion. She didn’t know how to express her thoughts. Lin Feng’s question made her want to express her true feelings, but she couldn’t bring herself to, not in front of Li Hong. More importantly, she didn’t believe Lin Feng could help her.
If the Ling Family gets involved, it might end up harming you... Li Liping thought as she quietly looked at Lin Feng.
"Uncle Li, Li Ping is not in a good mood right now. You should take her back to her room to rest. I’d like to have a private word with Mr. Lin..." Ling Jiahui’s expression changed slightly, then turned gently towards Li Hong, before turning his gaze to Lin Feng.
Li Hong’s expression paused, then he delightedly nodded. He hadn’t expected Ling Jiahui to stand up for Li Liping at that mont... It seed that this future son-in-law was not averse to the marriage after all!
Then, Li Hong led a sowhat worried-looking Li Liping back to her room...
"Your na is Lin Feng, right..." After watching Li Hong and his daughter enter the room, Ling Jiahui turned back, a mocking smile on his face, and looked at Lin Feng dismissively, "Do you know, soone as ordinary as you, I have thousands of ways to ruin you. I don’t understand what makes you think you can act like a savior here. Don’t you know, without the ability, taking the lead only makes you a target..."
Lin Feng silently glanced at Ling Jiahui, and after taking a drag on his cigarette, he still didn’t know what to say to this self-absorbed individual, so he let him boast...
Seeing Lin Feng remain silent, Ling Jiahui naturally assud Lin Feng was ashad and too afraid to speak...
"Let’s get straight to the point..." Ling Jiahui said with a tone of superiority, glancing at Lin Feng, "I won’t waste words. I only have one request: Don’t bother Li Ping anymore. Whatever you want, just say it, and I’ll give you a chance to na your price! Money or power? Oh, I forgot to tell you, the number one secretary of Jiangnan Province, Ling Aiguo, is my father. Now you should realize, I’m not bluffing with you..."
