Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 275 Entanglement

"It’s really quite a coincidence, I didn’t expect to run into you two here, if there’s nothing else, I’m going to head into the school." Lin Feng shrugged his shoulders at them, then helplessly scratched his head, finding today’s incident truly unexpected, something he had not anticipated.

"It is indeed a coincidence. Wan’er and I were just having coffee nearby, and as soon as we walked out, we saw you guys," Leng Mei replied very naturally, but her mind was still in turmoil, filled with thoughts about Lin Feng.

"Wan’er and I don’t have anything on either, we just saw you and wanted to say hi, you go back to the school if you’ve got things to do." Ding Wan’er also answered naturally, her heart equally restless, as such an encounter would leave anyone unsettled.

"Then I’ll head back to school first." Having said this, Lin Feng turned around and entered through the school gates, leaving Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei standing there.

It took quite a while for Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei to come to their senses and realize Lin Feng had already returned to school, wondering why they were still standing there. So, pretending as if nothing had happened, they made their way toward the school, but their hearts were already like overturned spice boxes, a mix of complex emotions!

...

"Sister Leng, I’m going back to the office first." As soon as she entered the school gates, Ding Wan’er couldn’t wait to greet Leng Mei, because she needed a place to calm down, her mind still reeling from the recent events.

"Great, I was planning on heading over to the Department of Linguistics to have a look." Leng Mei was very pleased to hear Ding Wan’er’s words because she too wanted to find a place to process today’s events, and Wan’er’s comment perfectly voiced her own thoughts.

"Then I’ll see you around." Ding Wan’er let go of Leng Mei’s arm, then waved goodbye.

"Yeah, we’ll talk some other time," Leng Mei waved back casually and then took the initiative to walk away from Ding Wan’er, heading in the direction of the Department of Linguistics.

Watching Sister Leng leave, Ding Wan’er shook her head and then went straight back to her office.

Sitting in her office chair, looking around the vast room of the president’s office, she didn’t know why, but her mind suddenly brought up the scenes of Lin Feng’s first arrival at Yingbo University, the words he had said to her, distinctly clear, especially his appearance when she saw that letter, and the initial aversion she felt towards him because none of the things he said back then seemed credible. Looking back now, Lin Feng had actually been telling the truth all along; it was just that, not knowing anything about him at the time, no one could believe the words he said were true.

Then, in the following days at the logistics department, he started to surprise her with his actions, her original hope had been for him to find the complex environment at the logistics department too challenging and leave Yingbo University. But contrary to her expectations, not only did he stay, but he also performed brilliantly. There wasn’t a single job at the logistics department that could stump him, and his work efficiency was frighteningly high, completing in a single day what others would take days to finish. Even matters that others couldn’t handle seemed to be easily resolved by him alone, earning everyone’s impressive admiration.

Before she knew it, he became acquainted with Sister Leng and got transferred from the logistics department to teach French at the Department of Linguistics, which actually turned out to be a good thing, as he ended up driving away the original French teacher. The students felt that Lin Feng’s French was better than that of the French teacher, which revealed his talent for languages, although she hadn’t given much thought to the extent of his language skills at that time.

After that, various things happened that made her look at him in a new light, such as him shielding her from Li Wenkai’s troubles, clearing the pipes in the chemistry building, dealing with a thief in the garden, among other things. These incidents slowly dissolved her initial dislike for him. On the contrary, from that time on, she started to take notice of him because so much had happened in the short time since he joined Yingbo University, his strengths gradually becoming apparent. It was from that point on that she began to feel Lin Feng was not a simple man.

It wasn’t until later, when Grandpa Leng was in danger and Lin Feng saved him, that she came to a profound realization about him. She already knew how serious Grandpa Leng’s condition was from her own grandfather. Even Grandpa Chen, the head of the Leader’s Medical Care Group, was helpless. Later, however, it was her grandfather and Grandpa Qian who took Lin Feng over, and he managed to save Grandpa Leng’s life. A group of experts had no solution, yet Lin Feng achieved what seemed impossible, which indicated that Lin Feng’s medical skills had reached a miraculous level!

As is well known, medicine is the most complex of all disciplines, and to have mastered it to such an extent, while also possessing other talents, was precisely why, at that time, Lin Feng firmly took root in her heart.

Later during the trip to Yuegang, Lin Feng’s outstanding performance at the language exchange meeting at Yuegang University, where he argued in seventeen languages, shocked the entire Yuegang. At the subsequent Taekwondo competition, he was even more impressive, beating the black belt ninth dan coach so decisively that there was no room for resistance. It was then that I realized he was truly a master, and it was during this trip to Yuegang that I began to take Lin Feng seriously. However, I still wanted to see other strengths Lin Feng had before making a decision when Shen Yao suddenly appeared, catching me completely off guard.

After returning to the country, I’ve thought a lot. Although I am Lin Feng’s fiancée, because of my little pride, I’ve always wanted to see all of Lin Feng’s talents before making a decision, which ultimately led to being helpless when Shen Yao appeared. I’ve also felt the magnitude of the challenge Shen Yao posed to me. Compared to her, I seemed to have no advantage, except that I’ve been with Lin Feng for nearly half a year.

Lin Feng single-handedly turned around two basketball games that were seemingly lost during the post-New Year’s game, successfully saving the face of Yingbo University. Just when I was about to do something, Shen Yao appeared again, and after the celebration banquet, she left with Lin Feng. I had no idea what happened, and though I called every five-star hotel customer service in Tianhai in a fit of desperation, I still couldn’t find their names.

That night I completely lost sleep, sleepless over Lin Feng, over myself...

Yet today, witnessing another innocent girl confess her love to Lin Feng, my heart truly ached. As Lin Feng’s fiancée, to watch another girl confess to him — I feared that this was something only I could subject myself to. But who else could I blame for all of this if not myself? If I hadn’t been so selfish, if I hadn’t been so hesitant, if I had been as bold as Shen Yao, if I hadn’t been so reserved. How could things have come to this point today!

Unconsciously, Ding Wan’er carefully went over everything that had happened during Lin Feng’s half-year at Yingbo University, and without realizing it, she became lost in thought. Lin Feng had become so formidable in this half-year...

"President, President!" Ding Wan’er’s secretary Zhang Yu called softly, yet still failed to awaken her.

"President, President!" Zhang Yu found it odd — why was the president so out of it today, so lost in thought that she couldn’t be roused? Not knowing the reason, the secretary was concerned as an important meeting was imminent, and she had to remind her, so Zhang Yu lightly pushed Ding Wan’er, raising her voice a bit.

"Ah! Zhang Yu! When did you come in?" Ding Wan’er was nudged by Zhang Yu and finally snapped out of it, wondering when she had come in. Had she said anything she shouldn’t have that was overheard?

"President, I just came in. I called you, but you didn’t respond, so I had to come over and remind you. The meeting is about to start, and everyone is already waiting for you in the conference room." Zhang Yu sensed something off with the president today. Could she be feeling unwell? She had never seen the president like this before.

"What meeting? I don’t remember," Ding Wan’er was confused by Zhang Yu’s words. She didn’t recall any meeting scheduled for today.

"You forgot? It’s about the new comprehensive experimental building the school is planning. Today is the meeting to discuss related matters." Now Zhang Yu felt more certain that something was seriously amiss with Ding Wan’er today. The president had always been work-oriented; such an oversight of her professional responsibilities was unprecedented. What on earth had happened to make her so lost?

"President, should I tell them to postpone the meeting so you can rest for a bit? You really don’t look well," suggested Zhang Yu, noticing Ding Wan’er’s paleness and clear lack of focus on work, seemingly lost in thought. In such a condition, she obviously couldn’t conduct a meeting, and Zhang Yu offered to postpone it, believing rest would be better for Ding Wan’er right now.

"Alright, postpone it until tomorrow. You can go out too, I need to rest a bit," agreed Ding Wan’er after hearing Zhang Yu’s suggestion, realizing it was for her own good. In her current state, she was indeed incapable of getting any work done, and postponing the meeting seemed the best option.

"Okay, President, I’ll be outside if you need me," said Zhang Yu, who then slowly exited the president’s office to inform the others about the postponement of the meeting.

Once Zhang Yu had left, Ding Wan’er supported her head with both hands, suddenly feeling so tired. Her head was filled with thoughts about how to resolve the current situation with Lin Feng. She deeply felt that if she continued to hesitate, she might truly jeopardize her status as a fiancée and even drift further from Lin Feng. If it came to that, what good would it do to make Yingbo University the number one in the world if she ended up old and alone? Right now, sorting out her relationship with Lin Feng was of utmost importance; everything else could wait.
