Chapter 120: Chapter 120 The Tipsy Man’s Intent Is Not in the Wine
After a few bites, Old Master Li raised his glass again, "Ling Feng, let
toast to you once more!"
"How could I accept this, I should be the one toasting to you!" Ling Feng quickly picked up his glass.
"When you’re at your own family’s ho, there’s no need for such courtesy, cheers!" the old master said with a beaming smile.
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng imdiately sensed that sothing was amiss and began to feel uneasy.
After taking a couple of sips, the old man’s face started to turn slightly red and then he looked at Ling Feng and said, "You’re of the sa generation as Yu i, by rights you should call
Uncle!"
"That’s right, I should!" Ling Feng replied.
The old man nodded, "Hmm, I’ve heard about your family situation from Yu i; I must say, you’ve had it tough."
"It’s alright, if one is full, the whole family isn’t hungry," Ling Feng laughed, vaguely guessing what might be coming next, so he couldn’t help but steal a glance at Li Yui.
She was looking down, busy feeding her child, seemingly unaware of the conversation.
But from her slightly flushed cheeks, it seed she also understood what her father was getting at.
Indeed, taking advantage of the alcohol’s effect, Old Master Li looked at Ling Feng and asked, "Uncle wants to ask for your help with sothing!"
"Why be so formal, just tell
what you need. If I can help, I won’t hesitate," Ling Feng said with a smile.
"This matter shouldn’t be difficult for you, your Aunt and I want to entrust you with finding a husband for Yu i," the old man declared.
"..."
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng was stunned!
This was completely different from what he had been expecting!
He had assud that the old couple wanted to marry Yu i off to him, but this request was totally unexpected!
After a mont of bewildernt, Ling Feng asked with a wry smile, "Uncle, Aunt, why do you need my help with this?"
"You’re a good person, we trust you, and as a doctor, you must know more people than we do!" the old man stated.
Li Yui’s mother nodded and added, "Yu i has had a hard life, raising a child on her own is not a solution, it’s ti for her to move on."
"This is true," Ling Feng nodded, unable to resist another glance at Li Yui.
Still, she didn’t look up, quietly feeding her child as if the discussion didn’t concern her.
Feeling sowhat helpless, Ling Feng nodded to the elderly couple, "Alright then, leave it to . If there’s a suitable match, I’ll definitely help!"
"Good, then we want to thank you in advance!"
Upon hearing this, the old man was delighted and imdiately picked up his glass.
Ling Feng joined him in another sip, when Li Yui’s mother suddenly remarked, "Actually, if it weren’t for Yu i being a widow with a child, you two would be quite well-matched!"
On hearing this, Ling Feng nearly spit out his drink!
Luckily, he swallowed it just in ti, thinking to himself that the topic had finally co around to this!
Old Master Li glared at his wife, "What nonsense are you speaking! Ling Feng is a young man, and Yu i is a widow; it’s simply not suitable with their different statuses!"
If Ling Feng couldn’t discern their intentions now, he’d be a fool. The old couple’s hints were obviously probing his sentints!
Of course, he had affection for Li Yui, and ever since she had eaten that miraculous snake at, her whole being had undergone a trendous change, her figure and skin brimming with vitality like an eighteen-year-old girl.
But in the presence of the elders, he simply couldn’t make any commitnt or agree to marry her!
Just as he was feeling conflicted, Li Yui finally looked up and said to her parents, "Stop talking, it hasn’t even been a year since Huzi passed away, I don’t want to find soone else yet!"
"If you don’t look now, you’ll have to eventually, just keep an eye out! A child can’t be without a father!" Li Yui’s mother said.
"I’m not in a hurry anyway, can we please stop talking about this!" Li Yui’s face betrayed a hint of annoyance.
Seeing this, the elderly couple exchanged a look and Li’s father hurriedly smoothed things over, "Alright, we won’t talk about this anymore, Ling Feng, let’s drink!"
After three rounds of drinks and a variety of dishes, Ling Feng stood up to take his leave, preparing to return to Shiliu Village.
It was already dark, but Li Yui insisted on accompanying him ho instead of staying at her parents’ house.
As the tricycle made its way along the country road, neither of them spoke a word, all the way until they reached the village.
Every household had their lights on, it seed Chen Gang’s efficiency was comndable; he had restored electricity to Liuye Village in just one day’s work.
Li Yui, cradling her soundly asleep child, got off the tricycle at the entrance to her house, her eyes glistening as she looked up at him and asked, "Ling Feng, would you like to co in for a bit?"
Ling Feng hesitated for a mont, then nodded, "Alright!"
After the al at the Li Family’s house, he realized the problems Li Yui was facing and wanted to take the opportunity to talk to her.
So he followed her inside, watched as she settled her child down, and with a smile, Ling Feng asked, "Did you really not know about what the old couple wanted to talk to
about today?"
"Yeah, if I had known it was about this, I wouldn’t have co to find you," said Li Yui as she sat on the edge of the bed.
"I’ve been ignoring it, but now that I think about it, you really should find soone else; it’s too tough for you to raise a child on your own," Ling Feng said.
Li Yui looked up at him, "I’ve said it before, I’m not thinking about that now!"
"Since you don’t want to, I won’t say much more. But if there’s any trouble at ho, just tell ," Ling Feng said with a sigh.
Li Yui nodded without speaking, and suddenly the room fell silent.
After a mont of silence, Ling Feng stood up, "It’s getting late, you should rest earlier, too."
After speaking, he turned to leave, but Li Yui hurriedly stood up, "Ling Feng!"
"Hmm?"
As Ling Feng turned back, he saw Li Yui looking down and fiddling with the hem of her clothes, her cheeks flushed red, so he asked, "What’s wrong?"
"I, I was hoping you could help
again; these past few days, my milk supply has been insufficient..." Li Yui said in a low voice.
Ling Feng was taken aback, thinking how that could be possible?
He had great confidence in his dical skills, and after massaging to stimulate milk production twice before, she definitely shouldn’t be having this problem!
But since Li Yui had ntioned it, it likely wasn’t a deception, so he could only say, "Then I’ll check for you."
"Yes, please."
Li Yui’s voice was very soft, and after nodding her head, she sat down and began to fumble with the opening of her clothes.
As she undressed, Ling Feng’s heartbeat started to accelerate bit by bit, and his lips also beca a tad dry.
To his astonishnt, under his gaze, Li Yui directly removed her bra, then lay down on the bed in one smooth motion, her eyes tightly shut, her chest rising and falling sharply.
Ling Feng was flabbergasted. It had never been like this when he treated her before; he hadn’t expected her to be so direct this ti!
Doing his best to control his emotions, he walked over to her.
The mont his hand touched Li Yui’s skin, she shuddered slightly, then she opened her arms and hugged him!
"Ling Feng, take ," Li Yui said tremulously.
