Chapter 787 I’ll Listen to You
"Lin Feng, Sister Apprentice and I haven’t eaten yet; we were planning on just having so fruit tonight." Shen Yao’s face turned a shade of red when she heard Lin Feng’s question. She knew exactly what he ant by that. Previously, during phone conversations, she had promised Lin Feng she would take good care of her health, and Lin Feng had explicitly requested that she should eat her als regularly. But which girl doesn’t care about her figure? So, under normal circumstances, she would skip dinner and just have so fruit instead...
"Junior brother, you’re so concerned about your junior sister, don’t you know? Having gotten used to the food you make, nothing else tastes good now. No way, now that you’re back, make a table full of dishes for , to satisfy my cravings. Yaoyao, I have to admit, our junior brother’s cooking skills are indeed much better than yours."
On hearing Lin Feng’s words and seeing Shen Yao’s embarrassed expression, Chu ng imdiately intervened, without really knowing what she was thinking. The words just blurted out, and only after she had spoken did she realize that her comnts sounded sowhat off, with a hint of jealousy. But once the words were out, she couldn’t take them back without making matters worse.
Now, Chu ng felt a slight panic in her heart; she didn’t know when she had started to have these inexplicable feelings for her junior. This caused Chu ng confusion more than once. Never having experienced any romantic relationships before, she now had no idea how to handle this situation.
"Sister Apprentice, stop teasing ; I haven’t been learning to cook for very long. Besides, how many people can cook better than Lin Feng? Lin Feng, go and cook sothing, will you? It’s been so long since I’ve tasted anything you’ve made, and Sister Apprentice and I could both do with a treat."
Shen Yao couldn’t help but laugh after hearing Chu ng say that, smiling and responding agreeably to her. In fact, it was true; there were few who could compare with Lin Feng when it ca to cooking. Now that Lin Feng was back, it was the perfect opportunity for them to enjoy his dishes and alleviate their cravings.
However, guided by a woman’s intuition, Shen Yao sensed the subtle hint of jealousy in Chu ng’s words and couldn’t help but take a second glance at her. But she then thought it was nothing to be concerned about; if soone as beautiful and capable as her Sister Apprentice beca one of Lin Feng’s won, it wouldn’t be a bad thing. Moreover, all of Lin Feng’s won, including herself, got along very well with Chu ng and liked her a lot. If things were to develop in that direction, nobody would object.
"Alright then, wait for . I’m heading to the kitchen," Lin Feng said upon hearing the two won and went straight to the kitchen to cook for them. Seeing how well Chu ng and Shen Yao got along, he felt pleased and decided to treat them well.
After watching Lin Feng head to the kitchen, the two won continued their chat with laughter.
"Yaoyao, sotis I don’t understand how you could like Lin Feng so much."
"Sister Apprentice, I don’t know either; I just do, and probably so other people feel the sa way."
"So other people?"
"It’s sothing to be appreciated but not spoken aloud. By the way, Sister Apprentice, have you ever t anyone more capable than Lin Feng?"
"Of course not. There’s only one person like our junior in this world. Why do you ask?"
"That’s right, so isn’t it normal for
to like Lin Feng?"
"Yes, it is!"
"Sister Apprentice, you’ve been single all this ti. Why don’t you look for a boyfriend?"
"I haven’t thought about that issue; I haven’t t soone like that yet."
"Then what kind of person would you like to find?"
...
Shen Yao and Chu ng started chatting on and on, with the topic shifting to the most private whisperings between won. With the hint of jealousy Chu ng had shown earlier, Shen Yao led the conversation, trying to subtly uncover Chu ng’s actual thoughts, to see if they matched her own guess about whether Chu ng really wanted to be one of Lin Feng’s won. If she could figure out what Chu ng was thinking, she wouldn’t mind helping her.
Chu ng was also a very astute person. Through their conversation, she sensed what Shen Yao was getting at and tried to steer the discussion smoothly, avoiding giving Shen Yao any clue to her thoughts. The reason was simple; Chu ng herself didn’t know what she was thinking, how could she possibly reveal her thoughts carelessly? Moreover, another concern was with Lin Feng already having so many won, if she were to get involved, what would that an...
But the more Chu ng tried to conceal, the more Shen Yao understood. Shen Yao also understood that Chu ng was not yet ready. Since that was the case, there was no need to force matters. Let nature take its course, but Shen Yao would not mind helping her outstandingly talented Sister Apprentice in finance when the opportunity arose.
Before long, as their spirited chat continued, Lin Feng finished preparing the al and called for the two won to sit down. When they heard Lin Feng announce that dinner was ready, they couldn’t wait to get up from the couch and made their way to the dining table.
As they looked at the six dishes and one soup on the table, the savory aroma filled the air, both won felt a warm coziness. Chu ng was still composed, but Shen Yao could no longer hold back, she imdiately sat down, picked up a dish, and tasted it. She truly hadn’t had Lin Feng’s cooking in a long ti and missed his flavors dearly.
"Lin Feng, your cooking is really delicious. I wish I had your cooking skills so I could make food for you and Dad," Shen Yao said joyfully, savoring the familiar taste in her mouth. She truly wished she could cook as well as Lin Feng, to make als for him, as well as to please her father.
"Yaoyao, this matter isn’t sothing to be rushed," Lin Feng understood Shen Yao’s intentions and smiled as he persuaded her to let go of the idea, "You should focus on your studies first because that can help your dad, don’t you think?" Shen Yao’s identity was sowhat special—as the eldest daughter of Shen Corporation, she had more important things to attend to and couldn’t focus her energy on cooking. Knowing a few simple dishes was enough for her.
"En, Lin Feng, I’ll listen to you." Shen Yao’s face turned red with embarrassnt as she softly agreed. In fact, she genuinely wanted to master cooking, but as Lin Feng said, she was destined to help her dad in the future, so her studies were the most important. With this realization, a hint of regret surfaced in Shen Yao’s heart.
"Yaoyao, don’t listen to Lin Feng. What’s wrong with relaxing in the kitchen after studying hard? You’re not a robot, right?" Seeing Shen Yao like this, Chu ng comforted her on the side. At the sa ti, a thought struck her—since she generally had a lot of ti, should she also properly delve into cooking?
"Alright, let’s eat." Lin Feng didn’t say anything more, feeling that a hint was enough. He believed that Shen Yao knew what to do, so he shifted the topic to eating, serving Shen Yao so dishes, followed by serving Chu ng.
"Senior sister, do you feel like going out for a spin?" After serving the dishes, Lin Feng rembered his earlier idea and asked.
"Junior brother, what do you an?" Chu ng felt curious upon hearing Lin Feng’s words. Why had her junior brother suddenly brought this up? What was this really about?
"It’s like this. In two days, I plan to go to Australia to handle so matters. I rembered that you haven’t gone out much since you ca to Tianhai and must be feeling bored. If you want to go out, I’ll take you with
this ti," Lin Feng straightforwardly shared his thoughts.
"Sure, I’ve indeed been feeling quite bored staying at ho. It’d be good to take a stroll and clear my mind."
"Lin Feng, I... I want to go too."
"Yaoyao, do you have the ti?"
"There’s quite a lot to do at school, and this holiday is very long, so of course, I have ti. If it cos down to it, I’ll just return to Yuegang from there."
"That’s great, Yaoyao! If you’re going, I’ll have soone to keep
company, which is even better."
"Well, if Yaoyao has the ti, let’s go together."
"Lin Feng, how long will you be going for?"
"There’s no specific schedule, but probably around a week or so."
"En, that’s not a problem at all."
"Yaoyao, when the ti cos, we must take a good tour, keep Senior Sister company, and relax. Don’t worry; we won’t take up your and junior brother’s alone ti."
"Look at what you’re saying, alright..."
...
At the dinner table, Lin Feng brought up the matter of visiting the Nangong Clan in Australia. To avoid having the two ladies overthink, Lin Feng simply ntioned it was a business trip. Knowing Lin Feng’s character, neither of them asked further questions, but they were both keen to go out, especially with Lin Feng’s company, which made the proposal all the more appealing. Happy to go, both ladies agreed, and Lin Feng had no objections. Since both of them wanted to go and it wouldn’t interfere with Shen Yao’s studies, the three of them finally decided to go together.
Before they knew it, the al was finished, and their conversation had wound down. Chu ng promptly sent Shen Yao and Lin Feng out of the villa. Shen Yao had co to Tianhai, after all—it wouldn’t do for her to stay here when she should be spending ti with Lin Feng.
Lin Feng offered no objections, taking the shy and blushing Shen Yao back to the villa she had purchased...
...
Upon waking in the morning, Lin Feng made breakfast for Shen Yao. After having breakfast together, he returned to his own ho to inform his parents about the trip to Australia. Zhang Lan and Lin Yiwen didn’t object, just told him to be safe before rushing off to work, as there was a lot to catch up on from recent tis.
Lin Feng also had many things to arrange ahead of the trip; he had to inform Ding Wan’er and Leng i, so he drove straight to the school intending to sort things out there and then set off for Australia with peace of mind to handle the Nangong Clan’s affairs.
The first matter was visiting Ding Wan’er’s office, where he briefly explained his plans. Ding Wan’er had no objections, showing concern with a few questions. Once she received affirmative answers from Lin Feng, she was completely reassured, though there was still an unwillingness in her heart—not having had the chance to spend much ti with Lin Feng after his return from Capital City, and now he was leaving again, leaving her feeling rather helpless.
Of course, Lin Feng understood how Ding Wan’er felt. He promised to spend a good evening with her, which was the least he could do. Happy with his promise, Ding Wan’er understood that Lin Feng genuinely cared for her. That was more than enough for her. Knowing Lin Feng still had to visit Leng i, she smiled and sent him out of the office to handle his other affairs.
