Chapter 276 Leng Mei is also Hesitant
By some strange coincidence, on the other side, after Leng Mei and Ding Wan’er parted ways, Leng Mei habitually walked towards the Language Institute. Like Ding Wan’er, her mind was filled entirely with thoughts of Lin Feng. Her feet moved subconsciously as she walked, and the other passersby steered clear of her, knowing Leng Mei’s renowned aloof beauty made it best to avoid her unless there was important business.
Lin Feng, he was truly too captivating for young women, anyone unfamiliar with him wouldn’t think much upon seeing him, but those who knew him, not one wouldn’t want to get closer. And indeed, he was far too outstanding, charming, and magical! Possessing such an intelligent and modest temperament that one couldn’t help but want to be near him. Once someone learned of Lin Feng’s abilities, they couldn’t remain calm anymore; Shen Yao was the best proof of this.
During the trip to Yuegang, Shen Yao had only met Lin Feng a few times, yet she managed to leave everyone agape with her actions. At the airport, she boldly confessed her feelings for him and even arranged for a luxurious private plane to transport everyone. What was more unexpected, Shen Yao followed him to Tianhai as soon as the new year began, and she lost her voice from cheering for Lin Feng at the basketball court. It was clear to see that Shen Yao had truly fallen for Lin Feng; she was recklessly burning her passion for him.
In comparison to Shen Yao, what she herself had done seemed far too insignificant. She couldn’t openly pursue Lin Feng as Shen Yao did, not because she didn’t want to, but because she truly didn’t have the courage to do so. She had too many concerns, such as the problem with their age difference, personality issues; these were all significant obstacles. More than once, she thought to herself, how wonderful it would be if Lin Feng had appeared a few years earlier, then perhaps she too would have been ablaze with love like Shen Yao.
But now, she truly couldn’t do it. The age gap between herself and Lin Feng was too much, and though she looked as young as Girl Ding, everyone knew that a woman’s beauty fades quickly, and it wasn’t something she could just hide. Age was an insurmountable barrier in front of her! However, she had also asked herself, if she were as young as Girl Ding, what would she do? Her answer was still unknown because she always had the feeling that someone like Lin Feng couldn’t possibly be tied down to a single woman in his life; he was too extraordinary, too exceptional, and there were no words to describe his abilities...
Unaware, Leng Mei suddenly found herself on the steps and, looking up, she saw the cafeteria of the Language Institute. Recalling the first time she met Lin Feng here, she couldn’t help but shake her head. Back then, Lin Feng had shown her no courtesy at all; he had crushed her pride into dust and made her realize that there were people in the world whose expertise in phonetics surpassed hers. It was also after that first meeting here that she transferred him to teach French on her side, which led to many events that followed.
Without lingering, Leng Mei turned and headed straight for her office. Passing the French department, she didn’t know why but she ascended the steps until she saw the French department’s classrooms. It was only when she noticed the classrooms that she realized she had come here. She was full of mixed emotions, recalling Lin Feng’s first French class where he had astounded all the students with his speaking ability—how could anyone believe a Chinese person could speak French better than a French person? Yet Lin Feng had achieved it!
Suddenly, Leng Mei remembered the words Lin Feng had said during that first French class. He had spoken of living on an island for five years, where he had learned the "Peerless Divine Skill", survival skills, killing techniques, the "Hundred Schools of Thought", numerous languages, and so on...
My God! Thinking back, she realized that everything Lin Feng had originally said was true; he had always been telling the truth. It was just that his truths sounded so outlandish that people thought he was talking nonsense. In the half year since Lin Feng’s arrival at Yingbo University, he had gradually revealed his capabilities. Except for not knowing whether he really knew the "Peerless Divine Skill", everything else he had mentioned had proven to be true. And every time he displayed a new ability, it evoked envy to the point of exasperation, because with Lin Feng, there was never a best, just something better, always providing endless surprises!
The change Lin Feng had undergone in that half-year since his arrival was tremendous. Upon reflection, it was truly astonishing. The abilities he had displayed made it seem like he was an all-capable person. His Chinese medicine skills were extraordinary, surpassing even the grandmaster Grandpa Chen. His chess skills were better than her own grandfather’s. It was unknown how many languages he could speak, and his martial skills outdid even those of a ninth-degree black belt in Taekwondo. All these traits combined made it hard to believe there could be such an exceptionally magical person like Lin Feng in the world. If one had to describe him, it would be that Lin Feng was no longer human!
"Dean? What are you doing here?" Mao Rongrong and Ye Xiaoyu, who had originally come for a study session, were surprised to find Leng Mei standing motionlessly outside the classroom.
"Dean Leng, what a coincidence!" Ye Xiaoyu, seeing Leng Mei standing at the door of the classroom, was also puzzled about why she was there.
"Oh, it’s you two." Hearing someone calling her, Leng Mei snapped back to reality, realizing she was at the French department. She was surprised to run into Mao Rongrong and Ye Xiaoyu; it was indeed quite a coincidence.
"We’re here to study on our own, Dean, you don’t look well, is everything alright?" Mao Rongrong felt that Leng Mei seemed distracted today. Could it be that Dean Leng was feeling unwell? Otherwise, she wouldn’t look so out of sorts.
"I’m fine, go on in, I’m heading back to the office." Leng Mei looked at the two campus beauties, not knowing what to say, because her mind was already jumbled up with thoughts of Lin Feng. It would be better to head back to her office; in her current state, she really couldn’t get anything done.
"Alright then, Dean, please take care. We’re going in," Mao Rongrong said, pulling Ye Xiaoyu alongside her into the classroom. However, she was even more puzzled at heart. What on earth had happened to make Dean Leng so restless? But since she wouldn’t say, it wasn’t appropriate for her to ask. It was better to just take Xiaoyu in to study.
"We’re going in, then." Ye Xiaoyu followed Mao Rongrong into the classroom, equally curious about Leng Mei’s unusual behavior today. The Dean had never been like this before; even in the face of major issues, she had always been very calm. Could it really be due to feeling unwell...
As Leng Mei watched the two girls enter the classroom, she suddenly realized something—both of these campus beauties were interested in Lin Feng. If nothing unexpected happened, they would also confess to Lin Feng. Now with Shen Yao and that other girl having already confessed, and adding these two beauties to the mix, the situation was truly complicated. How could she possibly insert herself into this battle for Lin Feng? Oh, heavens! This situation was really too complicated!
With a sense of resignation, Leng Mei shook her head and walked back to her office, paying no attention to anything else. Sitting in her chair, she seriously contemplated her options regarding the current situation. Did she really have to give up everything to be with Lin Feng forever...
...
Not long after, Lin Jie also alighted from the luxury car and hurried into her dormitory.
Lying on her bed, Lin Jie’s heart was still pounding excitedly, as she had finally plucked up the courage to confess her feelings to Brother Lin Feng. Even though she had fled in shyness immediately after confessing, Brother Lin Feng hadn’t rejected her, which meant he must like her. That alone was something to be happy about; it meant there was still hope. As long as there was hope, anything could be managed. The real fear was being left without any hope at all, which would render all efforts useless.
Brother Lin Feng was indescribably outstanding. He knew so much and was extremely skilled in many areas. Not only had he saved her father’s life, but this time in Lin Family Village, he had also driven away that villain. Not to mention just those two incidents, which alone were enough to provide a sense of security. Furthermore, Brother Lin Feng could cook a delicious meal and was so caring and considerate. Anyone spending enough time with him would undoubtedly fall for him without hesitation!
She had been so bold to do what she did; never had she imagined having the courage for such an action. Even the moment the words left her mouth, she questioned whether the speaker was truly herself. If it weren’t for the sudden appearance of Shen Yao pushing her into a corner, she believed she might never have confessed to Brother Lin Feng. Although she was a little behind Shen Yao, she trusted that Brother Lin Feng wouldn’t give up on her because they had grown up together from a young age. Brother Lin Feng understood her, and she understood him!
Why hadn’t she realized this point before? Even though she was very beautiful, Shen Yao wasn’t inferior to her in any way, and her family background was incomparable. But she understood Brother Lin Feng, which was something no one could match. Moreover, both her parents and Uncle Lin and Auntie Zhang were very supportive of her being with Brother Lin Feng. With the consent of both families, what was there to fear or worry about?
Therefore, even if she had to give up everything else, it didn’t matter as long as she could stay by Brother Lin Feng’s side, helping him tidy up the house, washing clothes would make her happy. She couldn’t imagine what it would be like if she missed out on Brother Lin Feng. However, there was one thing she was sure about; no other man could enter her world, because none could compare to Brother Lin Feng!
