Chapter 768: The Leng Family’s Wedding Banquet

"It’s basically like what Leng Hao said," Lin Feng thought for a moment. What Leng Hao spoke of was indeed the truth, and now he no longer feared S-level experts. Having personally killed two S-level experts, his understanding of power had risen to a whole new level. So, when Leng Hao said he was ten times more formidable than an average S-level expert, it wasn’t an exaggeration.

"You two just don’t get it," Zhang Lan followed up, reassuringly, "No matter how strong Lin Feng is, what does it matter? No matter how powerful he becomes, he’s still your son, my grandson-in-law. Isn’t that all that counts? He’s still him; he won’t change because of this. Knowing how strong he is, you should be even happier, because with his strength, he can protect his loved ones from harm. Don’t you agree?"

Leng Hui couldn’t help but laugh, adding his thoughts casually with the intention to ease the tension for Lin Yiwen and Zhang Lan, who were amazed by Lin Feng’s skills. He wanted to shift their focus, as there was the matter of the wedding banquet waiting for discussion—that was ultimately the most pressing issue at hand.

"Yes, Elder Leng is right," Lin Yiwen chimed in after hearing Leng Hui’s words, as if awakened from a dream. Indeed, like Leng Hui had said, the stronger his son, the better—so he could protect his loved ones. It was now clear to Lin Yiwen why a family like the Lengs willingly accepted Leng Mei as Lin Feng’s woman without any official status—because his son had already attained such extraordinary power.

With this revelation, Lin Yiwen finally understood why so many women were so desperate to follow his son, even the super-rich Shen family from Yuegang felt the same. It all boiled down to power. His son’s combat prowess was already formidable, and other matters were no doubt just as impressive. Lin Yiwen was indeed very pleased with this realization—his son’s prowess was a cause for pride!

"Elder Leng, we understand now," Zhang Lan’s face flushed as she grasp Leng Hui’s point. She finally grasped the extent of her son’s current capabilities which had previously been beyond her imagination. Although initially shocked, she now felt moved by Leng Hui’s words, realizing that regardless of how strong her son became, it was only a benefit to the family. She truly had no reason to fret over it.

Turning to her son, Zhang Lan felt an immense sense of pride. Just a few years ago, her son had been a typical profligate, and now he had transformed into an almost immortal being—it was a great fortune for the Lin family to have such a formidable son, and as a mother, she couldn’t feel more proud!

"Uncle... Aunt, please, have some tea," offered Leng Mei as she saw Lin Yiwen and Zhang Lan recovering from their astonished state. While pouring them tea and attempting to change the subject, Leng Mei inwardly wished to call them mom and dad but still couldn’t bring herself to say it; she blushed slightly at the thought.

"Elder Leng, where are Meimei’s parents? Why haven’t they returned yet? Let’s talk about how to handle the wedding banquet," Lin Yiwen said, taking a sip of tea and smiling at Leng Hui. They were originally supposed to discuss the wedding banquet today, but got sidetracked by Lin Feng’s matters. Now it was time to get back to the main agenda and sort out their thoughts.

"Yes, Elder Leng, regarding the wedding banquet, do you have any particular ideas? It would be good for our families to discuss this together," Zhang Lan spoke without drinking her tea, her affection for Leng Mei growing as she watched her. Though Leng Mei was a little older than Lin Feng, Zhang Lan found it a non-issue. Besides her cool demeanor, Leng Mei was an excellent match for her son, and Zhang Lan felt it was best to take care of the matter sooner rather than later.

"Yes, it’s like this: General Leng has some important matters and will only be able to return tomorrow. They have asked me to speak with you, and they won’t have any objections; everything is up to me."

"Oh, that’s fine. After all, you, Elder Leng, are in charge here in Capital City."

"I’ve discussed with a couple of old friends and we think it’s best to hold the ceremony on a small scale. After all, there are many things I’m concerned about regarding this event, and I hope you understand."

"We understand, of course. But Elder Leng, have you decided on a date yet?"

"It’s settled. In three days, there’s a particularly auspicious day on the lunar calendar. I think that day is quite good. With the number ’double,’ it’s the best selection."

"Ah, that’s a good date. Since Elder Leng thinks it’s good, let’s settle on that day then. The wedding banquet is just in time."

"Where will Lin Feng and Leng Mei’s bridal chamber be?"

"Originally, I thought about buying a villa outside, but Leng Mei said there was no need, as they hardly spend any time in Capital City. Buying a house would be a waste, so their bridal chamber will be in her existing room."

"Well, that’s a good idea too. The two kids will mostly be in Tianhai anyway. When we get back, I’ll buy them a big villa, and then you, as in-laws, can visit anytime."

"Absolutely, the kids will be working in Tianhai, so I’ll definitely visit when I have the time. But General Leng and his family will likely go there more often."

"By the way, what should the two children wear at the banquet? Although it’s just a family-style event, we don’t want Meimei to feel slighted. We think they should wear something festive. Meimei, do you have any ideas?"

"Uncle and auntie, I think it should be Chinese style. Wearing a qipao might be a good choice."

"Alright, we’ll do as you say. Once we’re finished here, I’ll go with you to get the qipao tailored. This is not something to be taken lightly."

...

The group began to discuss the details of the upcoming wedding banquet. These were the things that needed to be considered in advance. Ever since their son mentioned having a family banquet wedding in Capital City, Lin Yiwen and Zhang Lan had been very thorough in thinking through all aspects of the event. After all, this was their son and Leng Mei’s wedding. They didn’t want any oversights, but they also only brought up their ideas for discussion and communication with the Leng Family. Since the wedding was to be held in Capital City, their suggestions were just that, suggestions. Everyone had the same goal—to make this family banquet wedding a success.

Leng Hui was also pleased to see Zhang Lan and Lin Yiwen consider the wedding arrangements so carefully. Even many details he hadn’t thought of, clearly indicating they had given this much thought. Such thorough consideration meant Leng Mei had already received the approval of her future in-laws, a very good sign. With this in mind, Leng Hui felt even more joy and eagerly communicated with them, sharing the same desire as Zhang Lan to make the family banquet wedding perfect.

Time flew by unnoticed, but both the Lin and Leng families approached the wedding with utmost seriousness, discussing even the smallest details of the banquet. By the time everything was settled, it was already past noon. Only then did Leng Hui realize how time had slipped by, and he quickly expressed his apologies and invited Lin Yiwen and Zhang Lan to dine together. They all sat down to a cheerful and sumptuous family meal.

Afterward, in the afternoon, they began to get busy according to their respective roles, wholeheartedly preparing for the family banquet wedding three days later...

......

Three days later, Lin Feng and Leng Mei’s family banquet wedding was held as scheduled. The normally quiet Leng residence welcomed many guests. Although Leng Hui had controlled the number of invitees, given the Leng Family’s years of presence in Capital City and its unmatched heritage, the guests still filled the many tables set up in the courtyard. Those who secured a seat were the elite among the Leng Family affiliates, representing years of the family’s direct lineage.

Upon receiving Leng Hui’s invitation, each guest was overjoyed, preparing their gifts to express their well wishes. At their level of social standing, attending Leng Mei’s wedding would naturally not be a matter of monetary gifts. So, when all the guests were seated, the registration area for the gifts at the entrance was piled up into a small mountain, a clear sign of their sincere intentions.

"I really didn’t expect Leng Mei to get married."

"Yes, and the other party is Lin Feng."

"I’ve heard of him. Last time, he broke both of Zeng Xiaolong from the Zeng Family’s legs."

"Right, Lin Feng is truly outstanding, a worthy match for Leng Mei."

...

The guests, looking at the resplendently dressed Lin Feng and Leng Mei, chatted among themselves. Each person was very happy to have been invited to Leng Mei’s wedding. Upon arriving at the Leng residence and seeing such a low-key banquet, they were all surprised. Though seasoned by many experiences, they understood the implications. Everyone, by unspoken agreement, didn’t discuss the wedding itself. Instead, they shifted the topic to Lin Feng and Leng Mei, talking happily among themselves.

The meaning behind the family banquet wedding was clear to all, so they were even more astonished about what exactly Lin Feng had that allowed the Leng Family to set aside their status and let him marry Leng Mei. It was truly unbelievable. Despite their shock, they all understood that for the Leng Family to give such approval, Lin Feng had to be far from ordinary, and he had to possess some remarkable qualities. Otherwise, given the Leng Family’s current status and position, they would never have allowed Leng Mei’s wedding to be conducted this way.

From this day on, Lin Feng would be an official son-in-law of the Leng Family, which would entirely transform his standing for them. Whatever the case, they were all already branded with the Leng Family’s mark, and if Lin Feng ever needed help, they would certainly offer their assistance without hesitation.
