Chapter 681: The Flying Trash Can
Chapter 681: The Flying Trash Can
"So that’s how it is, well, it’s worth a look then, I also have a ticket." Upon hearing Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei’s comments, Lin Feng was also surprised. Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei naturally wouldn’t tell Lin Feng any lies. Their words meant that this Su Xiaoxi must really be exceptional. Previously, he had no good impression of celebrities in the entertainment industry, but now that he knew what kind of star Su Xiaoxi was, Lin Feng truly wanted to accompany Lin Jie to see if Su Xiaoxi was as likable as Ding Wan’er and the others had described.
"You have a ticket too?" Ding Wan’er was taken aback upon hearing Lin Feng’s words. She was extremely curious about how Lin Feng could’ve gotten a ticket. Since Lin Feng returned to Tianhai, she was quite aware of what kind of person he was. Given Lin Feng’s personality, it was impossible for him to be interested in such a concert, so... what was going on, and who could have given him the ticket?
At this thought, Ding Wan’er’s curiosity intensified. Concert tickets like this were very hard to come by; how did he manage to get one? Could it be that someone gave it to Lin Feng, hoping he would accompany them to the concert?
Yes, that’s a possibility, indeed a very real one!
Ding Wan’er’s mind was now buzzing with guesses about who could have given Lin Feng the ticket...
"Who gave you the ticket?" Like Ding Wan’er, Leng Mei was also startled to hear that Lin Feng had a concert ticket and wanted to go. This was completely out of character for him according to his usual demeanor, so who gave him the ticket?
Shen Yao? Impossible, Shen Yao was in Yuegang!
Qian Duoduo? Also impossible, for Qian Duoduo hadn’t returned yet!
Mao Rongrong and Ye Xiaoyu? Even more impossible, they couldn’t possibly have invited Lin Feng to the concert on their own!
...
So who could it be? Leng Mei couldn’t figure out for whom Lin Feng would attend the concert. Unless he had agreed to someone else, Lin Feng would not have planned to attend Su Xiaoxi’s concert. So... what was the situation, and who gave Lin Feng the ticket? Could Lin Feng have another woman...
"Last night, Lin Jie gave me the ticket, hoping I’d go with her, and seeing I had nothing else planned, I agreed," Lin Feng said without concealment, candidly disclosing Lin Jie’s name. He had seen Lin Jie’s affection for him and couldn’t bear to hurt her. Since Lin Jie had chosen him, there was no need to hide anything from Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei. It was something that had to be mentioned sooner or later, so why not just come out and clear the air?
Upon hearing Lin Feng’s frank admission, Ding Wan’er quickly grasped the situation. She didn’t recognize the name Lin Jie, but suddenly she remembered the scene she and Leng Mei had witnessed on the first day of school: a pretty girl had confessed to Lin Feng and then run away, to never be seen again. She had always wondered about the girl’s name, and if she guessed correctly, that girl must be Lin Jie.
So the girl’s name was Lin Jie, huh. It seemed that Lin Feng’s circle of women was now clear. However, Ding Wan’er felt not a hint of jealousy. From their first encounter, it was evident that Lin Feng and Lin Jie had known each other for a long time. Otherwise, Lin Feng couldn’t have mentioned that Lin Jie had visited his home the night before. After all, she and Sister Leng had never been to Lin Feng’s house, which was enough to indicate that Lin Feng’s relationship with Lin Jie was far from simple. Lin Feng had openly mentioned Lin Jie and his plans to attend the concert with her, signifying that Lin Feng had accepted Lin Jie.
With this realization, Ding Wan’er smiled but said nothing. Lin Jie was truly a good person, pure and endearing, and brave enough to make such a bold confession, signifying she was ready to be Lin Feng’s woman. It was a natural development for Lin Feng to accept Lin Jie, and having such a sweet and innocent girl as a sister would be a pleasant thing.
"Sister Leng, then I guess I’ll be accompanying you," Ding Wan’er said with a smile, turning to Leng Mei, her face filled with mirth. Since Lin Feng was going to the concert with Lin Jie, she would have to go with Sister Leng instead. However, Ding Wan’er wasn’t upset in the slightest; Lin Feng normally spent his time at school and the remainder frequently with her and Sister Leng and would often be out for extended periods. Therefore, the amount of time Lin Feng and Lin Jie spent together must be extremely limited. It was only fair to give this good opportunity to Lin Jie and Lin Feng.
"All right," Leng Mei responded indifferently, understanding Ding Wan’er’s thoughts. She wanted to give the concert time to that girl named Lin Jie. And hearing Ding Wan’er’s lack of any sign of anger, Leng Mei immediately figured that Lin Jie must be one of Lin Feng’s women. Otherwise, Ding Wan’er would not have been so nonchalant. With that in mind, Leng Mei quickly went along with Ding Wan’er’s idea.
But who was this Lin Jie? Leng Mei began to wonder. Lin Feng spent most of his time at school, and among the few women who were confirmed to be in a relationship with Lin Feng, she knew them all, and there was no Lin Jie among them. It wasn’t easy to win Lin Feng’s acceptance, so who was she?
Suddenly, the events of the first day of school flashed across Leng Mei’s mind. Yes, that must be her, the pure and extremely pretty girl who had boldly confessed to Lin Feng and then ran away! With this clarification, Leng Mei’s confusion dissipated. She had always wondered why she had never seen that girl since then; so her name was Lin Jie...
"This... Lin Jie is a sister who grew up with me since we were kids, and you’ll get to meet her at the concert," Lin Feng explained, a little lost for words after hearing Ding Wan’er. He knew what she meant by her remark and had not expected Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei to be interested in the concert. If he had known, he would have definitely gone with them. However, since he had already promised Lin Jie, it wouldn’t be right to go back on his word. Regarding the concert, he would have to go to this one with Lin Jie first, and then maybe attend another with Ding Wan’er later if possible.
"So that means Lin Jie has known you longer than any of us?"
"To be precise, we grew up together since we were kids."
"Was it that beautiful girl who confessed to you on the first day of school?"
"Yes, it was her."
"Hmm, I really like her. How about you, Sister Leng?"
"I like her too."
...
The three of them started to talk about Lin Jie again, as both Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei were very curious about her identity. It wasn’t because they were jealous or envious, but they genuinely wanted to understand what kind of person this sister they would be living with was, that was all. Now that Lin Feng had four women, and with Lin Jie, it was five, so Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei had long accepted the situation. Especially in these past days, Ding Wan’er had opened up Leng Mei’s heart even more. Both of them really hoped to interact more with Lin Jie to get along harmoniously.
Seeing the attitude of Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei, where their words only showed concern without any other implications, Lin Feng felt reassured and simply answered the women’s questions, briefly informing them about Lin Jie’s situation. It was better for them to understand Lin Jie in advance, so there wouldn’t be any conflicts for him to solve later. Lin Feng was more than happy to spend pleasant days with them and Lin Jie in the future.
So, the three had a great time chatting, with no trace of discomfort and even included some slight flirting, making Lin Feng and the two women feel very good...
Just as they were enjoying their conversation, an accident occurred. Suddenly, someone by the roadside kicked a trash can with force, sending it flying towards Lin Feng’s car with a whistling sound.
"Whoosh..."
Just as it was about to smash into the car’s windshield, Lin Feng suddenly maneuvered the vehicle and completed a 180-degree drift.
"Bang!"
A loud noise followed as the trash can, which was initially flying toward the windshield, slammed directly onto the trunk lid, instantly denting the whole trunk...
This noise gave Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei quite a scare. They were both clueless about what was happening. What... what was going on?
Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei hadn’t seen what happened outside, but the car had suddenly drifted without any warning, startling them. Then, a loud noise, accompanied by a vibration from the car body, let them know something had hit the vehicle. The two of them never expected that such a thing would happen on the way home! What... what on earth was happening?
"Lin Feng, what happened?" Ding Wan’er, frightened by the sudden event, turned somewhat pale and quickly asked Lin Feng what had happened. The car was drifting all of a sudden, but what exactly had transpired to provoke such a drastic reaction from Lin Feng?
"Yes, Lin Feng, what happened up front?" Leng Mei was also startled by the sudden incident and her heart was beating wildly. However, she knew Lin Feng must have had a reason for doing this; otherwise, given his usual composure, it was impossible for him to act so bizarrely all of a sudden. There must have been something they missed seeing.
"Nothing much, just a trash can that flew over. Let’s get out and have a look," Lin Feng said casually, not taking the person by the roadside seriously. As soon as that person made their move, he had seen their actions, which is why he managed to avoid the flying trash can without any harm. And in that brief moment, Lin Feng had spotted the person; it was a young man!
But Lin Feng was very puzzled, wondering who this young man suddenly targeting him could be and why he would adopt such methods to make him stop. However, one thing was certain, this person definitely meant no goodwill. If nothing went wrong, this person was surely looking for trouble!
Since that was the case, he might as well get out and confront him...
Upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei breathed a sigh of relief. They managed to suppress the shock in their hearts and got out of the car with Lin Feng. But to their surprise, they saw someone standing under the street lamp across the road, staring in their direction. Instantly, their hearts jumped with shock. What... what on earth was going on, and who was this person...
