Chapter 551: Chapter 551: Being a Man is Tough
Ling Feng and Bai Feifei had a high-profile meal together and then strolled around the base of the Dragon Group, staying for a full two or three hours before leaving.
Originally, Ling Feng had invited Bai Feifei to attend the celebration of Yan Universityās anniversary the next day, but she politely declined!
According to Bai Feifei, the Seven-step Silver Light Snake was currently in its metamorphosis phase, and she needed to use the Cultivation Technique to enhance the serpentās power.
However, from Bai Feifeiās gaze, Ling Feng could understand what she meant. Even though she had already fallen for Ling Feng, she wasnāt ready to face Liu Tingyu so soon. She didnāt know what Liu Tingyuās attitude towards her was, and she didnāt want to make herself look contemptible in front of others!
That was Bai Feifeiās perseverance kept deep in her heart, perhaps!
Ling Feng sighed in his heart, being liked by so many outstanding girls was a test for him! After all, the difference between good fortune in romance and a calamity of love was only a thought away.
When Ling Feng left the Dragon Group, he found Lin Tianhao standing in front of him.
"Ling Feng!" Lin Tianhao looked at the young man before him with complex emotions, his heart filled with mixed feelings.
After he went back, he had found Ling Fengās information and discovered that Ling Feng was actually an Honorary Elder of the Dragon Group! For someone so young to be an Honorary Elder of the Dragon Group was a great shock to Lin Tianhao!
He was a proud man and had always believed he was exceptional among his peers. But compared to Ling Feng, he found no advantage at all!
Being within the Dragon Group, Lin Tianhao naturally understood what being an Honorary Elder signified. Each Honorary Elder was the strongest ace in the Dragon Group. Each one was at least an S-level expert!
And some A-level peak national players could spend their entire lives without breaking through to S-level!
"I know you are an Honorary Elder of the Dragon Group, and I know your strength is exceptional. Compared to you, I have no advantages!" Lin Tianhao said earnestly, "But matters of the heart are not judged by personal strength. I want to compete with you fairly!"
Looking at the determined yet vulnerable Dragon Group technical engineer before him, Ling Feng smiled lightly, "Thatās right, youāre not wrong. Affairs of the heart can only be resolved with feelings. External strength cannot be a factor in influencing emotions. But precisely because of this, I feel you have even less hope. Because if we talk about strength, you might surpass me in the future, but when it comes to feelings, you will never be able to come between Feifei and me. I wonāt give you any chances!"
Lin Tianhao looked bitterly at Ling Feng. He too had seen the surprise in Bai Feifeiās eyes. Her eyes held only Ling Feng, and even though he was by her side, he had been completely ignored.
"But I wonāt give up!" Lin Tianhao took a deep breath and said.
Ling Feng stepped forward and patted Lin Tianhaoās shoulder, "Your determination is admirable, but matters of the heart involve two people. Even if you donāt give up, what you bring to the other person is only discomfort and embarrassment. Isnāt letting go also a form of love, perhaps? I think you wouldnāt want Bai Feifei to be troubled and restless because of your persistence, would you?"
Lin Tianhao opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. What Ling Feng had said made sense!
"Think about it!" Ling Feng smiled, then stepped past Lin Tianhao and walked away.
"Elder Ling, would you give up Bai Feifei for love?" Lin Tianhao suddenly turned his head and asked.
"How could that be possible!" Ling Fengās voice was calm and filled with dominance, "Bai Feifei is my woman. I will never let go of her in this lifetime! Even if Heaven wants to tear us apart, I will punch a hole through the sky!"
Watching Ling Fengās back view as he walked away, Lin Tianhao exhaled a sigh of relief, wiping the sweat from his forehead, his expression much more relaxed.
"So it turns out what I lost was not in strength, but in understanding of this affection!" he murmured to himself, "Which woman could resist Elder Lingās charm? It seems, while Iām not too deeply entangled, I should give up. Giving up may well be a liberation for me!"
In the Dragon Kingās office, the Dragon King watched Ling Fengās retreating back view through the window and couldnāt help shaking his head. He had caught up to his own daughter, and now he was openly hitting on his disciple!

"Well, Iāve meddled with Feifei before, I wonāt interfere with their affairs this time! If they can withstand the tribulations of the future, it could actually turn out to be a good thing for them!"
Having reached such a level, the Dragon Kingās mind was no longer bound by worldly morals!
...
The next morning, when Ling Feng opened his sleepy eyes, he found the space beside him empty.
Only then did Ling Feng remember that yesterday, Liu Tingyu had used the excuse of accompanying Yun Hanrui to leave him alone at home.
"Sigh, why do I feel like Tingyu and Hanrui have been getting closer recently? I really donāt know if itās a good thing or not!" While Ling Feng was happy about the girlsā harmony, he couldnāt help feeling a bit jealous!
Because their relationship had become much closer than his with either of them, to the point where Ling Feng felt like they were the real couple!
Checking the time, it was only seven-thirty. Ling Feng covered himself with the blanket: "Itās still early, I can sleep a bit more!"
Just as he was groggily trying to catch some more Zās, the blanket was suddenly thrown off, and a crisp female voice rang out, "Still sleeping, are you a pig?"
Ling Feng shivered and, opening his eyes, saw Yun Hanrui and Liu Tingyu both holding their arms and looking at him with smiles in their eyes.
"It seems like youāve been quite well-behaved recently!" Liu Tingyu glanced at Ling Fengās lower body and commented with some malice.
Ling Feng instinctively covered his little brother and said with an awkward smile, "Of course, of course, Iāve been behaving."
After rolling in the sheets with these two, they were showing more and more potential to be ruffians!
"Stop sleeping, come shopping with us today!" Yun Hanrui said with a smile, "Since you wanted to rest today, letās enjoy ourselves. I canāt wait to go on a huge shopping spree!"
Ling Feng blinked, "You guys donāt lack anything, right? Why go shopping then?"
"Shopping is a womanās nature!" Liu Tingyu declared confidently, "Not letting a woman shop is like not letting a man cheat; itās just not possible!"
Ling Feng quickly raised his hands, "Okay, okay, Iām wrong, alright? Iāll get out of bed and dress up now... but are you sure you want to watch me change?"
"As if we havenāt seen it before!" Liu Tingyu said disdainfully, "Sister Yun, letās go out and save our eyes from pollution!"
With that, Liu Tingyu pulled a blushing Yun Hanrui out of the room.
As Ling Feng changed his clothes, he frowned, "From just now until now, from Tingyuās words, it seems like she might know something... Really gives me a headache. Why do I get the feeling that Tingyu is unfathomably deep?"
As the saying goes, a guilty conscience needs no accuser. Ling Feng always felt bad towards Liu Tingyu because of Wei Meizi, but when he thought about telling her, he didnāt know how to start or if Tingyu would be heartbroken after hearing it...
"Sigh, being a man is hard, being a man embraced from both sides... is difficult!"
