Chapter 199: Coming Right Away
Chapter 199: Coming Right Away
"You guys couldn’t possibly have been tricked by him too, right? This guy not only deceived Grandpa but also tricked you, I don’t know what kind of love potion he fed you to make you praise him like this. If he’s really as you describe, then is he even human? He’s like an Immortal. I just can’t believe that there could really be someone that amazing in this world!" When Qian Duoduo got to talking, she realized that the way her two sisters talked about Lin Feng was abnormally enthusiastic. Usually, they wouldn’t even bother with men, but when it came to Lin Feng, they seemed very interested, going on and on about his good qualities as if no one else in the world could match up to him.
I really don’t understand how Lin Feng managed to deceive my two sisters to such an extent, it’s just too unbelievable. Both of them are geniuses among geniuses, how could their IQs have dropped so low now, to believe such nonsense? And Grandpa, too, has been hoodwinked by Lin Feng, raving about him all day long. What has gotten into everyone? Is Lin Feng the only man in the world? I’m sick and tired of hearing about him every single day.
Now I’m actually a bit curious as to what kind of pretty boy Lin Feng is, to have fooled everyone like this. His trickery must be top-notch!
"How could I possibly be fooled by someone, sister? Lin Feng is truly excellent, and everything I said about him is true. If you don’t believe me, I can’t help you. Maybe only after you meet Lin Feng will you believe that such an incredible person exists in this world." Leng Mei understood Qian Duoduo’s skepticism. Normally, if someone were this praiseworthy, he would have to be a con artist, because such a person simply couldn’t exist. But ever since Lin Feng showed up, has anything been normal? No one could believe without seeing it for themselves.
But what Duoduo said isn’t quite right, suggesting that not only did Lin Feng trick Grandpa Qian, but also fooled me and Girl Ding. What kind of talk is that? Without even mentioning anything else, just take Grandpa Qian, such a shrewd person, how could he be tricked? And there’s no way Girl Ding and I could be tricked either; we have been geniuses since childhood, and the person capable of tricking us simply doesn’t exist.
"Duoduo, Lin Feng isn’t like what you’re saying. He really is that amazing, and he’s not some con artist. Everything about him was demonstrated right before our eyes, that’s why we speak so highly of him," Ding Wan’er said, defending Lin Feng upon hearing Duoduo’s words. If Lin Feng were a scammer, what would that make me, considering I’m his fiancée? Besides, Lin Feng isn’t a scammer, everything we’ve said about him is true.
"Okay, got it. Let’s stop talking about Lin Feng. Sisters, I have things to do later, and then I’ll visit Grandpa. We can phone each other later to hang out, how does that sound?" Seeing Leng Mei and Ding Wan’er’s reactions, Qian Duoduo couldn’t believe that her usually cold sisters were now so protective of Lin Feng. She really didn’t know what kind of spell Lin Feng cast on them, turning them into what they are now, making me believe he’s really all that impressive. Even if I were to believe that the sky could fall, I wouldn’t believe in Lin Feng’s greatness. It would be better to change the subject and have a real conversation with my sisters.
"Sure, it’s been a long time since us three sisters have gathered together," Leng Mei replied, happy with Qian Duoduo’s suggestion. As they grew up, the opportunity for them to meet became rarer. She and Wan’er meet often, but Duoduo lives so far away and is so busy. It’s almost been two years since they last saw her. It’s fortunate that she has come to Tianhai, or who knows when they’d see her next.
"Let’s have dinner together tonight, and if you’re free, we can go shopping as well," Ding Wan’er said, clearly delighted by Duoduo’s proposal. The sisters had been apart for a long time, and it was time for a proper reunion.
"Then it’s settled. I’ll call you both later, and we’ll go out for dinner," Qian Duoduo responded, her mood lifting somewhat from being upset over Lin Feng, as she heard her sisters’ enthusiasm. Ever since she took over Grandpa’s business, the three sisters hadn’t had a reunion. Today, no matter what, she wanted to have a good time with her sisters.
"Duoduo, why have you been so busy these past two years that you haven’t had time to come to Tianhai?"
"Yeah, us three sisters just can’t see enough of you."
"I couldn’t help it, you both know how big Grandpa’s business is."
"How long can you stay in Tianhai this time?"
"Come sleep over at my place tonight, and we can have a good talk."
...
As the three of them chatted away, time flew by, and before they knew it, the car had reached Yingbo University. The reason was no other; Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei needed to return to settle things for the students attending the exchange event, so Qian Duoduo drove them there.
After Leng Mei and Ding Wan’er got out of the car, Qian Duoduo grew angrier the more she thought about it. Their reaction to Lin Feng in the car was just too unusual; they had never appraised any man like that before. It was rare for young people to surpass them, almost non-existent, but they had such high praise for Lin Feng, which was clearly just a fantasy spun by him. No, I have to expose him to save my sisters from being tricked. With this thought, she dialed the phone number of Ji Yunlong, the person in charge of the society in Tianhai.
"Yunlong? It’s Qian Duoduo, I’m in Tianhai now," Qian Duoduo’s tone was rather serious and she was clearly angry, not bothering to control her emotions at the moment.
"Chairwoman Qian... how are you, where are you? I’ll come to pick you up right away." Ji Yunlong, a tall man with an Azure Dragon tattoo covering his shoulder, was in the midst of lovemaking with his lover. He was about to furiously scold whoever was calling him at such a moment, but the sight of the caller ID sent a cold sweat down his spine. He never expected the boss, Qian Duoduo, to call him at this time. He had no idea when she arrived in Tianhai. Was she here for a surprise inspection or some other business?
"No need to look for me, I need you to check on someone for me. Lin Feng from the Department of French, School of Linguistics, Yingbo University, Tianhai City. I want the results in half an hour," Qian Duoduo commanded with authority in her voice over the phone, speaking in a cold and low tone.
"I’ll take care of it right away and inform you in half an hour," Ji Yunlong quickly promised, as sweat began to form on his forehead. Something seemed off about the chairwoman’s voice today. He didn’t know who had managed to anger this ’Yama’, but no matter what, since the chairwoman had given the order, he had to complete it by any means necessary. Despite being only 20 years old when she took over as the boss and carrying out drastic reforms within the gang, it was her loyal Law Enforcement Team that truly enforced her will with thunderous methods that terrified everyone. If he failed to complete the task on time, his life would get very difficult.
"I’ll wait for your news." Qian Duoduo hung up the call promptly; now that she had arranged this matter, she would continue to look for her grandfather. With this thought, she picked up the phone to call him. She had come to Tianhai to see her grandfather, and he was naturally the first person she wanted to see. Besides, if he hadn’t pestered her endlessly, she wouldn’t have come to Tianhai to visit him at all; there were just too many issues with the gang to deal with.
"Grandpa, I’m in Tianhai. Where are you?" After getting through the call, Qian Duoduo urgently inquired about her grandfather’s whereabouts, eager to rush over to see him. After all, it had been months since she last saw her grandfather, and she missed him dearly.
"Duoduo, you’re really here? That’s wonderful! I’m at your Grandpa Ding’s place, the villa in the school. You know it," Qian Rong said delightedly upon hearing Duoduo’s voice. Having pestered Duoduo for so long, she had finally come, and now he could finally arrange for Duoduo and Lin Feng to meet. Such an outstanding person must not be monopolized by a mere academic.
Moreover, our family’s Duoduo is the perfect age for Lin Feng. She’s not only beautiful but also extremely skilled in martial arts — a rare combination. Lin Feng will undoubtedly accomplish greater things in the future; Tianhai isn’t all he’s meant for. If Duoduo were to be with him, at least his fears about his future safety would be unfounded because the entire gang would be Lin Feng’s support.
Duoduo, once you meet Lin Feng, you’ll understand that your grandpa isn’t wrong about him. He is exceptionally outstanding. Otherwise, why would I be so eager to introduce you to him?
"Grandpa, I got it. I’ll be right there," Qian Duoduo said before hanging up, soon arriving at Ding Yi’s villa’s front door.
"Ding-dong!" Qian Duoduo, holding several bottles of fine liquor she brought back from Yuegang, pressed the doorbell, anxious in her heart. It had been months since she last saw her grandfather, and she wondered how he was.
"Duoduo, is that you? Come on in! I’m playing chess with your Grandpa Ding," Qian Rong’s hearty laugh came from inside. Having not seen his cherished granddaughter for several months, he missed her greatly and promptly urged her to come inside.
"Hello, Grandpa Ding, Grandpa," Qian Duoduo greeted the two elderly men playing chess in the living room very politely before sitting down beside her grandfather.
"Grandpa, this is liquor I brought back for you from Yuegang. Try it with Grandpa Ding and see if it’s good. If you like it, I’ll buy some more for you," Qian Duoduo handed the liquor to her grandfather. Her grandfather was a man who loved his drink and appreciated all kinds of liquor, so this time she had specifically bought some that he couldn’t usually get in the hope of pleasing him.
"My dear granddaughter! Ha ha!" Qian Rong was overjoyed to see the liquor Duoduo had intentionally bought for him, pleased that his granddaughter remembered his love for alcohol and had brought some all the way from Yuegang just for him; it was the thought that counted.
"Duoduo, it’s been almost two years since I last saw you. Is everything going well for you?" Ding Yi, seeing that Duoduo had grown into a beautiful young woman comparable to Wan’er, was very glad. Surely, ’a woman becomes a completely different person every eighteen days’; in just two years, Duoduo had grown so lovely. Who could imagine what she would become one day!
However, Ding Yi’s heart suddenly tightened. The old rascal had called Duoduo to Tianhai; he didn’t want to set her up with Lin Feng, did he? He remembered that the old rascal had always been aiming to do just that...
