Chapter 1439: Chapter 1442: Trouble

“Is it really that simple?” Lin Feng’s little movements didn’t evade Su Zi’s notice. Su Zi gave a playful glance at Lin Feng’s stealthily withdrawing hands with a smile on her face, “Handsome Lin, why do I feel like you’re a bit guilty when you speak?”

“Why should I feel guilty…” Lin Feng shook his head and smiled broadly at Su Zi, pretending to be very carefree, “You’re overthinking it.”

Su Zi smiled but said nothing, turning to look at Cao Ying and Li Liping who attended with glamorous makeup, a slight expression of envy and jealousy flickering on her face… Because she had spent the entire day helping Lin Feng, she hadn’t had the chance to dress up herself today, so she was wearing a more plain woolen sweater and a pink jacket. Although Su Zi’s natural beauty wasn’t diminished by such simple clothing, compared to Cao Ying and Li Liping’s shoulder-baring formal gowns, she appeared somewhat less impressive.

In Su Zi’s heart, she had her suspicions about the relationship between Lin Feng and both Cao Ying and Li Liping. Su Zi knew she probably couldn’t control Lin Feng’s heart, but in front of Cao Ying and Li Liping, she didn’t need to pretend to be particularly magnanimous!

Women are inherently petty, and Su Zi is not afraid to show this in front of Lin Feng… She knows that as long as she’s not too excessive, Lin Feng might actually appreciate her pettiness because, whether man or woman, both hope for the other to care more about their feelings.

Moreover, Su Zi felt that the more sour her attitude toward other women, the more Lin Feng would be able to discern her genuine feelings.

“Is it really me who’s overthinking?” Su Zi’s lips curved slightly as she spoke with a hint of detachment, “Handsome Lin, I hope you’re telling the truth, otherwise tonight, someone might not let you into the room…”

On the surface, Su Zi’s words were directed at Lin Feng, but in reality, her focus was entirely on Li Liping and Cao Ying. It was clear the meaning was not in the wine…

Cao Ying and Li Liping’s expressions indeed changed… They perceived intense hostility from Su Zi’s words, and the meaning behind her words was very clear—she was Lin Feng’s woman.

“Lin Feng, are you and Su Zi… a couple?” Cao Ying had a slightly pale expression as she looked at Lin Feng, asking with an odd expression… She distinctly remembered that Lin Feng’s girlfriend was Tang Rou, and Lin Feng had said that Su Zi was merely his classmate, but now it didn’t seem like that at all!

Li Liping also had a complex expression as she looked at Lin Feng, her mind filled with resentment… Obviously Lin Feng could have so many girlfriends, why couldn’t she be one of his women?

Thinking about this, Li Liping’s gaze towards Lin Feng was filled with sorrow… She couldn’t comprehend why, since Lin Feng could help her escape the shadow of Jiangnan and the Ling family, he couldn’t take care of her future as well! She wasn’t asking for much, even sharing with her cousin wouldn’t matter; why couldn’t this wooden-head see it?!

Lin Feng felt his head was growing big; he knew that the jealous Su Zi wouldn’t let Cao Ying and Li Liping off the hook, but he hadn’t expected Su Zi to be so fierce, launching a direct attack that cornered him…

Lin Feng realized that Su Zi was forcing him to acknowledge her as his rightful girlfriend!

If it were only Li Liping, it would be fine; regarding this beautiful senior sister, Lin Feng didn’t want to involve her further. Following Su Zi’s cue to break her expectations would be good, preventing her from getting too deeply involved… However, with Cao Ying present, Lin Feng had more to consider, as he couldn’t let go of Cao Ying in his heart.

Even though it sounded selfish, Lin Feng had already decided that he would never let another man get close to Cao Ying in this lifetime… No matter what means he used, he would stick to this idea!

“Well… Hehe… Teacher Cao, you’ve seen it all, I don’t need to say much, right…” Lin Feng chuckled, gestured at Su Zi, then at himself, vaguely explaining.

“Tsk tsk… Lin Feng, Lin Feng, you didn’t say this to me before…” Cao Ying glanced at Su Zi, speaking with a teasing tone, “You said that you and Su Zi were just ordinary classmates, didn’t you?”

As Cao Ying looked at Su Zi, her thoughts actually went to Ning Aoxue… If Lin Feng was so unrestrained, presumably Ning Aoxue, who lived in the villa with them, was also his, right?

Lin Feng didn’t know what to say… Every time it came to moments like this, he felt his head grew a lot larger, his mind hitting a blank, and he just wanted to quickly escape the terrifying world of women’s intrigue.

However, much to Lin Feng’s disappointment, not only did he not find an opportunity to leave, but another frightening woman arrived…

“Lin Feng, many guests on the other side of the venue want to meet you, what are you staying in this banquet hall for?”

Wearing a black uniform, Xue Qingyi walked over, with an earpiece on, and her originally beautiful face now added a touch of heroic spirit, giving her a unique beauty…

Xue Qingyi casually greeted Lin Feng, then noticed Cao Ying and Li Liping beside him, a playful smile flickered in her beautiful eyes.

Before formally recognizing Lin Feng, Xue Qingyi had investigated the people around him in depth; she was well aware of the backgrounds of Li Liping and Cao Ying. Still, she acted as if she didn’t know them, glancing at the two women and then smilingly looking at Lin Feng, “Who are these two beauties?”

Su Zi’s face became even uglier upon seeing Xue Qingyi approach. While she maintained some vigilance against Cao Ying and Li Liping, her heart was more resistant to Xue Qingyi; thus, when Xue Qingyi inquired about Cao Ying and Li Liping’s identities, Su Zi took the initiative to speak for them, “Cao Ying was Lin Feng’s former substitute teacher, and Senior Sister Liping is our senior from the School of Economics and Management. They are good friends of Lin Feng, here tonight to witness… So, Sister Qingyi, do you have anything to ask?”

Cao Ying and Li Liping exchanged glances regarding Xue Qingyi and sighed silently; another one… How many companions does Lin Feng have, truly impossible to deal with…

Cao Ying faintly frowned; she initially wanted to clear things up with Lin Feng, but now realized it wasn’t the right time… Humph, considering the inappropriate occasion today, she would let Lin Feng off for now, planning to arrange a meeting to truly discuss things over the next few days! She couldn’t let this boy go too far!

Lin Feng opened his mouth, offered a soundless smile, then forced calmness into his tone, “Well, I’m going to check the venue. Su Zi, Sister Qingyi, please take good care of Teacher Cao and Senior Sister Liping, it’s up to you…”

Then, Lin Feng very unsympathetically left the beautiful ladies behind, sneaking away alone…
