Chapter 1798: Chapter 1795: Cheng Minxue
Ming Xueâs face turned slightly red, but she didnât let go. She said very seriously, "I canât let go. What if you run away? Itâs not easy for me to find someone who understands this song. I wonât let go!"
Ling Feng was a bit headache-ridden, "Miss Ming Xue, have you never met someone who understands your singing before? Are you really that excited and shocked?"
Ming Xue shook her head, looking at Ling Feng with excited eyes, "Come with me to see my father. If he knows about this, heâd be happier than I am!"
Ling Feng was taken aback, "Hey, hey, nothing has happened between us. Isnât it a bit rushed to meet the parents so soon?"
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Ming Xue was a bit flustered, stomping her foot, "There are things I canât conveniently tell you. Once you meet my father, youâll naturally understand everything!"
Ling Feng frowned. Ming Xueâs behavior was too strange, and he naturally didnât want to go!
"If you want me to go with you, at least be honest with me!" Ling Feng said helplessly, "First, you should let me know your real name, right? Donât try to fool me with âMing Xueâ!"
Ming Xueâs face flushed, "How do you know Iâm lying to you?"
Ling Feng said disdainfully, "Iâve already played tricks like these in the past."
"Alright then, I wonât hide it from you anymore. Iâm actually Cheng Minxue!" Cheng Minxue said with a hint of apology, "Sorry, I lied to you earlier!"
Cheng Minxue? Isnât she the heroine of that bet among those rich second generations? Ling Feng had been contemplating how to approach Cheng Minxue casually, and now it seemed like everything fell into place effortlessly! Life is indeed full of serendipities...
"Ahem, youâre the most beautiful Cheng Minxue of the Canglan Commerce?" Ling Feng said with a hint of surprise, "Oh dear, I should have guessed it earlier. Besides the legendary Cheng Minxue, who else could be so beautiful?"
Cheng Minxueâs face slightly reddened, "Iâve already told you the truth. Can you agree to meet my father now?"
"Letâs go!" Ling Feng sighed, "Given your stance, if I donât go, you definitely wonât let go, will you?"
Cheng Minxue nodded, indicating that Ling Fengâs words were very accurate.
Coming down from the top floor, Ling Feng stopped, "Um... can you let go now? There was no one else upstairs, but there are many people downstairs, what if..."
"I wonât let go. What if you run away? Where would I find you!" Cheng Minxue said righteously, "Donât think I donât know what youâre thinking. I wonât let go!"
Ling Feng was almost in tears. He really would have run away earlier, but now that he knew the girl was Cheng Minxue, he definitely wouldnât go anywhere.
"But holding onto me like this is very improper!" Ling Feng said with a wry smile, "Donât you find it a bit strange?"
Cheng Minxue looked at her hands holding onto Ling Fengâs, and indeed, it looked odd. She thought for a moment and said, "Youâre right, how about we hold hands instead, itâs more natural this way!"
Saying this, she hooked her arm around Ling Fengâs without waiting for his protest and urged, "Hurry up, if my father knows, heâll definitely be very happy!"
Ling Feng smiled wryly, unsure if Cheng Minxue was faking it, but now in other peopleâs eyes, it looked even more like they were a couple!
"If someone saw us, it might cause a sensation again! Iâm like a shooting star in the night, no matter how hard I try to hide, my brilliance and charm canât be concealed!" Ling Feng sighed in his heart.
Soon, the sight of Ling Feng and Cheng Minxue looking intimately like a couple appeared before the crowd, and everyone was dumbfounded, frozen as if their systems had crashed.
What was going on? The Ice Maiden, who had always been indifferent to the opposite sex, was now holding onto another man like a little bird nestling? And that man... was a middle-aged man with a weary face!
"I donât believe it; this man must be a senior relative of the Goddess!"
"Thatâs not right. There seems to be no such man in the Cheng family. Who on earth is he?"
"Why would the Goddess like such an ugly man, could this be what they call love?"
Those few rich second generations were also utterly confused upon hearing the news. What was going on? They havenât even started to make a move yet, and Cheng Minxue is already taken?
"This must be fake news!" Tian Qiyun said, frowning, "How could Cheng Minxue possibly like a middle-aged man? If the Head of the Cheng Family found out, it would be interesting!"
"Exactly, the Head of the Cheng Family is also on the airship. Cheng Minxue wouldnât dare to be so flamboyant even if she had the courage of a leopard. They must not be a couple!" Xiao Yunteng said.
Zuo Yuqi chuckled, "I actually hope they are a couple."
"Zuo Yuqi, what do you mean by that?" Li Zhiyuan frowned and asked.
Zuo Yuqi chuckled, then whispered, "If that man is Cheng Minxueâs man, it proves that Cheng Minxue is not uninterested in men. Secondly... donât you guys think that married women have their own charm?"
"Hiss, Zuo Yuqi, you really have quite the heavy taste, but... thinking about it, it does seem exciting!" Tian Qiyunâs eyes lit up.
"Indeed, indeed, kindred spirits!" The four guys exchanged glances and then laughed in unison, snickering like weasels that have stolen chickens.
All along the way, the astonished gazes of the crowd made Cheng Minxue feel very strange. She didnât understand why everyone was looking at her like that. Clearly, she wasnât very aware of the situation.
"Um... youâre holding on too tight, people might mistake us for a couple!" Ling Feng couldnât help but say when he saw Cheng Minxueâs clueless expression.
Cheng Minxueâs face instantly turned crimson, and she subconsciously wanted to let go of Ling Fengâs hand but then hooked it again, "Hmph, they can say what they want. Do I, Cheng Minxue, care about othersâ opinions?"
"Then why are you blushing?" Ling Feng teased.
"I... Iâm circulating my True Qi, canât I feel hot inside?" Cheng Minxue said righteously.
Alright, as long as youâre happy! Ling Feng shrugged, "By the way, how far is it?"
"Weâll be there soon!" Cheng Minxue subconsciously quickened her pace, dragging Ling Feng forward.
Yet you say you donât care, who are you kidding! Ling Feng shook his head and then quickly followed.
When they reached the Cheng family area, Cheng Minxue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Elder Cheng, whereâs my father?" Cheng Minxue asked when she saw an old man approaching.
"The master is resting in his room. And this gentleman is..." Elder Cheng looked at Ling Feng, a look of surprise in his eyes.
Cheng Minxue said, "Alright, Iâll go find my father now, goodbye Elder Cheng!"
With that, Cheng Minxue pulled Ling Feng and pushed the door open.
