Lin Feng felt a flutter in his heart from Tang Wan's teasing, while Tang Qingshan smiled and didn't interrupt.
"Miss Tang, let's talk about it later. I'm not considering dating right now."
Lin Feng politely refused. His priority was to find his senior sister quickly; he had no time for romance.
"Alright, I'll wait for you. Come find me when you've made up your mind."
Tang Wan didn't force the issue. She sent Lin Feng to the entrance of the medical university and then left with Tang Qingshan.
Lin Feng didn't return to school. Liu Mengyao was still angry, and he didn't want to provoke her at this time.
He went to Su Qingya's small shop. The shop had returned to normal.
However, due to the food poisoning incident, the shop's business was far from what it used to be. Only two or three customers were inside.
"Brother Feng, you're finally back. Sister Qingya was worried sick about you!"
Sun Xiqing's heart relaxed when he saw Lin Feng return.
Su Qingya also hurried over upon hearing the news. She looked Lin Feng up and down. Seeing that he was unharmed, her tense face gradually relaxed.
"Classmate Qingya, I'm sorry to have worried you."
Lin Feng smiled and gently squeezed Su Qingya's cheek.
"I'm glad you're back. Mom made you noodles. Go and have some."
Su Qingya, like a virtuous young wife, brought the noodles to Lin Feng and personally added a fried egg for him.
"Classmate Qingya, I helped you out a lot today. How will you thank me?"
Lin Feng, still thinking about his senior sister's hairpin, seized the opportunity to ask.
"Uh..."
Su Qingya lowered her head, her face flushed, unsure how to answer.
"Sister Qingya, why don't you kiss Brother Feng? I'll step aside!"
Sun Xiqing played the role of a wingman, deliberately turning his back.
Lin Feng rolled his eyes at Sun Xiqing. That wasn't what he wanted. Besides, Su Qingya was shy; how could she possibly kiss him?
As he was thinking, Lin Feng felt a moist, soft sensation on his face.
He looked back in astonishment. It was Su Qingya's lips, which had lightly brushed against his cheek.
After kissing Lin Feng, Su Qingya was so embarrassed she wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground.
"I... I'll go help Mom. You eat your noodles first."
Su Qingya said, then hurried away in a flustered state.
Lin Feng was stunned. Su Qingya's bold move was completely beyond his expectations.
However, Lin Feng reached up and touched his moist cheek, feeling a strange thrill.
Never mind, this was a good start. At least Su Qingya didn't dislike him or avoid him anymore. He would find a chance to ask about the hairpin sooner or later.
After figuring this out, Lin Feng ate his noodles with gusto.
Su Qingya hid in the kitchen, her blushing face refusing to subside.
Meanwhile, at Zheng Bowen's company.
Zheng Bowen looked at the report Akun handed him and angrily threw it to the ground.
"Useless, all of you are useless! You can't even handle such a small matter. What good are you?"
Zheng Bowen was truly enraged. Ruining the skewer shop was supposed to be an easy task, but Lin Feng had thwarted it.
"Boss, what should we do now? Should I find some people to deal with him directly?"
Akun asked uneasily.
"Do you think there's no law in this world? You can just kill whoever you want? Use your brain!"
Zheng Bowen loosened his tie, his face still slightly flushed.
It wasn't the tie constricting him, but the anger brought on by his useless subordinates!
"Go and call Youlong here. I have something to tell him!"
Zheng Bowen thought of Zheng Youlong.
Akun didn't dare to delay and quickly brought Zheng Youlong.
"Brother, you wanted to see me?"
Zheng Youlong was surprised that Zheng Bowen had sought him out.
"Tonight, you should invite Liu Mengyao out. I have a few tickets to the amusement park. Take her there to play, and make sure Lin Feng also comes along."
Zheng Bowen instructed.
"Brother, Lin Feng has treated me so poorly! And you still want me to invite him to the amusement park?"
Zheng Youlong couldn't understand. Ever since the spring outing, he hadn't dared to provoke Lin Feng. Now, mentioning Lin Feng made him furious.
"Do as I say. I have my own plans. You don't need to worry about the rest."
Zheng Bowen didn't want to waste words with Zheng Youlong. These people had brains like blocks of wood; they wouldn't understand even if he explained.
"Alright, I'll go arrange it now."
Zheng Youlong dared not disobey Zheng Bowen's orders.
Upon returning to school, he waited at the entrance for Liu Mengyao.
"Young Master Long, what is Brother Bowen thinking? Inviting that Lin guy to hang out? With this money, he could have invited me to play with Dong Yingying!"
Geng Dapao complained.
"You only know Dong Yingying! I guess Brother Bowen is doing this because he's planning to deal with Lin Feng."
Jia Xiaoming adjusted his glasses, his mind racing.
"Xiaoming, what do you mean by that?"
Zheng Youlong also felt that things weren't that simple, but he couldn't figure out the intricacies.
"Young Master Long, given Brother Bowen's personality, he wouldn't show kindness to an enemy. I think Brother Bowen chose the amusement park because he might want to create some accidental incidents."
"Think about it, amusement parks have many dangerous rides, and accidents happen every year. I suspect Brother Bowen has tampered with these rides and wants to use an accident to kill Lin Feng!"
Jia Xiaoming analyzed. He had read about such methods of murder in books, so he immediately made the connection.
"That makes sense. Your analysis is spot on. My brother is indeed formidable; how could I not have thought of such a good plan!"
Zheng Youlong suddenly understood.
At this moment, Liu Mengyao and Luo Keke walked out of school.
Lin Feng also appeared behind the two.
"Miss, please don't be angry with me anymore. It's been a whole day. Please acknowledge me!"
After thinking for a long time, Lin Feng decided to apologize to Liu Mengyao proactively.
"Little Lin, you only know to apologize now? It's too late!"
Luo Keke pouted. This time, she chose to side with Liu Mengyao, as Lin Feng hadn't shown up all day.
Liu Mengyao had a cold expression and no intention of forgiving Lin Feng.
"Yaoyao, I'm glad I finally found you, and that we didn't miss each other!"
Zheng Youlong seized the opportunity and rushed forward, displaying the amusement park tickets in his hand.
"What are you trying to do? Sister Yaoyao is in a bad mood and doesn't want to talk to anyone. Stop spouting cheesy pick-up lines here, alright?"
Luo Keke rolled her eyes.
"It's good that she's in a bad mood!"
Zheng Youlong's face lit up.
"What did you say?"
Liu Mengyao frowned slightly. Her mood was bad, and Zheng Youlong was happy about it?
"Yaoyao, don't misunderstand. I meant, since you're in a bad mood, it's a good time for us to go to the amusement park. I've already bought the tickets."
Zheng Youlong invited her.
"Sister Yaoyao won't go with you! She'll go with Little Lin!"
Luo Keke refused on behalf of Liu Mengyao.
However, Liu Mengyao had a flash of inspiration. She forced a smile and said, "Okay, I promise to go with you!"
"Really!?"
Zheng Youlong was overjoyed, almost moved to tears. This was the first time Liu Mengyao had accepted his invitation!
Luo Keke was also surprised. Didn't Sister Yaoyao hate Zheng Youlong the most? Why did she agree so readily?
In fact, Liu Mengyao didn't want to agree, but thinking of Lin Feng, she inexplicably accepted.
She wanted to prove to Lin Feng that even without him, she wasn't lacking in male attention and care.
