Chapter 365: Chapter 365: Father-in-law and Son-in-law Conversation
Hearing Ling Fengâs answer, the Dragon Kingâs expression changed slightly. Although he had his suspicions, he still found it hard to believe when he got the definite answer from Ling Fengâs mouth.
The Dragon King took a deep breath and said, "You should know that Ting Yu is a very innocent girl, and she loves you very much!"
Ling Feng nodded: "I know, because I love her the same way, even more than I love myself!"

The Dragon King looked intently at Ling Feng, seeing determination and sincerity in his eyes: "Good, I understand! To tell you the truth, I donât have a good impression of you, but donât overthink itâitâs not because you are the Blood-Handed Asura, but because you are Ting Yuâs boyfriend!"
Ling Feng was momentarily stunned, seemingly understanding.
"Any father would not warmly accept his daughterâs boyfriend!" the Dragon King said with a bitter smile: "Moreover, for all these years, Ting Yu has harbored resentment towards me and Aunt Wan, something Iâve tried for over a decade to improve upon with no success. Yet this youngster managed to capture her heart in less than three months. Tell me, shouldnât I dislike you?"
A smile appeared on Ling Fengâs lips: "Uncle Liu, I canât agree with that! I understand your love for Ting Yu, but donât forget, Ting Yu is also my girlfriend. In this world, having one more person who truly loves Ting Yuâisnât that something to be happy about?"
The Dragon King was taken aback, then burst out laughing: "Right, youâre not wrong, it indeed is something to be joyful about. Now Iâm worried my daughter has been charmed by your smooth talk."
Pausing for a moment, the Dragon King looked at Ling Feng, his smile fading: "Ling Feng, I believe your feelings for Ting Yu are real, but what if Ting Yu canât be with you forever?"
Ling Feng spoke softly: "Uncle Liu, are you talking about the hereditary illness in Ting Yuâs family? Before we committed to each other, Ting Yu had already told me about it!"
"Yes, I knew Ting Yu would not keep such a big matter from you!" The Dragon King paused and said: "Since thatâs the case, you must not mind it then? I want to know why?"
Ling Feng shook his head and said: "Ting Yu is the woman I love most, how could I not care about such a thing? But I believe that there is always a way out for those determined to find it. As long as we look for a solution, we will definitely overcome this difficulty! I will always be by Ting Yuâs side, I will ensure she lives a long and happy life, I will make sure she enjoys the fullness of family bliss, I will break the shackles of fateâ I am certain I can do it!"
Hearing Ling Fengâs resolute words, the last shred of the Dragon Kingâs concern vanished.
"Ling Feng, to be honest, Iâve wanted to meet you for a while now," the Dragon King said: "No matter what your identity is, whether youâre the Blood-Handed Asura or anything else, it doesnât matter to me. Whatâs most important is whether you truly care for Ting Yu from the bottom of your heart. As long as you two truly love each other, both Aunt Wan and I will support you!"
"Ting Yu is a very strong girl, but I am not pleased about it at all. I wish she didnât have to be so strong, and that she could, like other girls, rely on the strong arms of a man. Regrettably, thatâs something I failed to provide!" The Dragon King sighed with regret: "She has chosen you, and I hope you can truly provide her warmth and love. If you ever mistreat her, I wonât forgive you easily!"
Ling Feng nodded solemnly: "Donât worry, Ting Yu is my beloved. How could I bear to mistreat her?"
"I believe you!" The Dragon King nodded: "Other people donât know your identity yet, and it would be bad if they found outâit would bring unnecessary trouble. Since you returned to Huaxia to lead a simple life, let me handle certain matters."
Ling Feng was taken aback: "May I ask what Uncle Liu is referring to..."
"Apart from the Chu Family incident, do you think thereâs anything else that requires my intervention?" the Dragon King said indifferently: "Although the Chu Family was at fault, Huaxia needs stability now. Therefore, it is better to settle enmity rather than hold onto it. I will give a heads up to the Chu Family Head!"
"Uncle Liu, thank you for taking care of everything!" Ling Feng said respectfully, without trying to act tough.
Since the Dragon King was ready to make a move, it meant he was fully confident. Even the number one leader of Huaxia had to treat the Dragon King of Dragon Group with courtesy, not to mention just a family head from a noble household! Let alone the fact that the Chu Family hadnât reached the status of the number one noble family in Huaxia!
The two had pretty much finished their discussion when Xia Wanâer and Liu Tingyu also returned.
"What happened? My dad didnât give you a hard time, did he?" Liu Tingyu knew that the two men must have had some private conversation, but she couldnât help asking when she saw Ling Feng.
Dragon King coughed softly and said, "Ting Yu, in your heart, am I really the kind of person who would beat a mandarin duck with a stick?"
Liu Tingyu giggled, which was enough to show that Ling Feng had received his approval.
She took the Dragon Kingâs hand and said with a beaming smile, "Of course not! Iâve known for a long time that my dad is the most reasonable person in the world; how could he do something that would incur the wrath of heaven and the resentment of people?"
Dragon King rolled his eyes. Daughters really are not to be kept around forever. If he had insisted on making Ling Feng leave Liu Tingyu earlier, the father and daughter might have fallen out already.
"Oh? Wanâer, whatâs that...?" At that moment, Dragon King also noticed the Heart of the Ocean around Xia Wanâerâs neck and asked in surprise.
"This is a gift from Ling Feng!" Xia Wanâer said, "You and I have been married for so many years, and youâve never given me a gift as precious as this!"
Dragon King shook his head with a wry smile, glancing at Ling Feng. He hadnât expected that the young man had already won Xia Wanâer over to his side before he had arrived, quite the sly one he was.
"Ahem, Ling Feng, since youâve given such a precious gift to your Aunt Wan, you must have an even better gift for Ting Yu, right? I wonder what you have given to Ting Yu?" Dragon King teased deliberately.
Obviously, the Dragon King was looking for trouble!
Liu Tingyu hugged Ling Fengâs arm and said, "He is already mine now; does he really need to prepare a special gift for me?"
Dragon King couldnât help but feel a bit defeated; this girl really stood up for her boyfriend!
Gently patting Liu Tingyuâs arm, Ling Feng whispered, "Ting Yu, Iâve said that Iâve also prepared a gift for you. Although it may not be as valuable as the Heart of the Ocean, it is truly unique in my heart. Only by giving it to you can I express my true feelings."
Everyone was somewhat surprised. What could this be, so mysterious? Could it possibly be rarer than the Heart of the Ocean?
Just as Ling Feng was about to take out the gift, a familiar voice came over, "Master, sorry, Iâm late!"
Ling Fengâs action stopped abruptly, a look of disbelief appearing on his face.
