Lin Feng felt a bit flustered. He and Feng Jingwen were in a state that was difficult to explain.
Unable to do anything about it, since Liu Mengyao had caught them, he could only quickly get up and greet her with a smile.
"My dear young lady, why are you here?"
Lin Feng asked, pretending nothing was wrong.
Liu Mengyao, however, paid no attention to Lin Feng. Her pretty face was cold, and her moist eyes exuded biting chill, as if brewing a colossal thunderstorm.
Feng Jingwen also noticed Liu Mengyao's arrival at this moment.
Looking at Liu Mengyao, whose figure and appearance were no less than hers, Feng Jingwen immediately felt an invisible sense of crisis.
"What are you two doing on the grass in broad daylight?"
Liu Mengyao got straight to the point, coldly questioning Feng Jingwen.
Feng Jingwen lowered her head in shame, two blushes involuntarily creeping onto her pretty face, as if she had been caught in the act. She whispered as softly as a mosquito: "Nothing, we're just classmates!"
"Classmates? Little Linzi, where did you get a female classmate from?"
"Kissing and cuddling in public on the grass, is that how classmates are supposed to be so open? Do you think of my unborn child?"
Liu Mengyao's pretty face turned red with anger as she touched her abdomen and chided him.
Hearing the word "child," Feng Jingwen's smile vanished instantly, replaced by shock and disbelief: "Lin Feng, what is she talking about, a child?"
Lin Feng's expression darkened. Just as he was about to say something, Liu Mengyao cut him off: "I am Lin Feng's girlfriend, and the child in my belly is his. Do you still not understand?"
Feng Jingwen felt as if she had been struck by a thunderbolt. Tears welled up in her eyes as she gazed at Lin Feng: "Is this true? Is she really your girlfriend, and is she pregnant with your child?"
"Yes, but there are some misunderstandings..."
"Darling, why are you explaining to her? Shouldn't you be giving me and the baby an explanation instead?"
Liu Mengyao interrupted Lin Feng. Her imposing presence left Lin Feng speechless.
"Miss Liu, please don't misunderstand. Lin Feng and I are just classmates. It's not what you think!"
Feng Jingwen forced a smile. She didn't want to make things difficult for Lin Feng and turned to leave with feigned composure.
However, the moment Feng Jingwen turned, a tear that slipped from her eye landed on Lin Feng's face.
Lin Feng could feel Feng Jingwen's pain and despair at that moment. He felt heartache and self-reproach.
At the same time, he knew that the situation could only get worse.
"Little Linzi, she's already far away, what are you still lingering for? Didn't you say you'd be responsible for me? Why are you fooling around outside behind my back?"
Liu Mengyao's pretty face was flushed red with anger.
"My dear young lady, please stop causing trouble. I'm already in enough of a mess!"
Lin Feng felt his head was about to explode. Liu Mengyao wasn't pregnant at all; where did this child come from?
Most importantly, he and Liu Mengyao were only temporary boyfriend and girlfriend; their relationship wasn't even confirmed yet. This wasn't cheating, was it?
"I don't care! If you don't give me a clear explanation today, you're not coming home!"
Liu Mengyao said indignantly and turned to leave.
She thought Lin Feng would come after her, but this guy, he just stood there, making a phone call to someone.
"Damn it! Even now, you're calling that homewrecker! Lin Feng, you're driving me crazy!"
Liu Mengyao stamped her feet in anger. Lin Feng looked so much like her little brother Qi. How could she let him provoke other women before they were sure?
What if Lin Feng really was little brother Qi!
Unbeknownst to her, Lin Feng wasn't calling Feng Jingwen at all. Instead, Tang Wan had asked to meet him.
Lin Feng didn't refuse. It was a good opportunity to discuss the cooperation with Wan Zhongliang.
In the evening, Lin Feng arrived at the moat where he had agreed to meet Tang Wan. From a distance, Lin Feng saw a graceful figure standing by the river, lost in thought.
Tang Wan was wearing a fiery red long dress. Under the streetlight, her exquisite and cold pretty face looked somewhat melancholic as she gazed into the distance. Her proud figure, in perfect proportion, appeared exceptionally alluring in the rustling night breeze.
After Lin Feng got out of the car, he walked to the railing by the river and stood silently beside Tang Wan.
"What's wrong? Is something on your mind?"
Lin Feng noticed that Tang Wan's reaction was a bit off and asked gently.
Tang Wan turned her head. Her beautiful eyes, adorned with light eyeshadow, flashed with a charming hue. "I'll tell you later. My stomach hurts a bit. I need to go to the restroom."
Saying that, Tang Wan, holding her stomach with a hint of pain, went to the public restroom not far away.
As the place was quite secluded and it was already night, there was no one in the restroom.
Tang Wan entered the women's restroom and unbuttoned her skirt, only to discover that her period had arrived early!
Tang Wan felt a bad omen. She rummaged through her handbag and, as expected, found no sanitary pads.
She couldn't possibly call Lin Feng and ask him to buy one for her, could she?
Just as Tang Wan was wondering what to do, a white object fell with a thud at her feet.
"A sanitary pad?"
Tang Wan frowned upon seeing the sanitary pad fall from the sky. She pushed open the restroom door and glanced out, realizing there was no one in the restroom.
Then where did this sanitary pad come from? It couldn't be that God took pity on her and sent it, could it?
Tang Wan sneered. Seeing that the sanitary pad was still in its packaging, she didn't bother thinking too much and opened it to use.
"Mr. Lin, I apologize for keeping you waiting!"
Tang Wan returned after taking care of herself and said apologetically, seeing that Lin Feng was still waiting for her.
At the same time, Tang Wan suddenly thought of something and asked: "Mr. Lin, were you here the whole time? Did you not go into the women's restroom?"
Tang Wan guessed that the sanitary pad might have been given to her by Lin Feng!
Lin Feng was startled and chuckled, "Why would I, a grown man, go into the women's restroom? Miss Tang is really good at joking!"
"I was overthinking, I'm sorry!"
Tang Wan stood awkwardly in the wind, the rosy wavy locks of her hair shimmering with a sexy glow.
Lin Feng looked at Tang Wan beside him and suddenly said, "But seriously, you've been a bit stressed lately. Your period even came early. This is likely due to stress-induced hormonal imbalance. I think you need to regulate your body!"
As soon as he said this, the smile on Tang Wan's face froze.
So, that sanitary pad was indeed from Lin Feng!
This guy actually went into the women's restroom. Doesn't that mean she was seen by Lin Feng?
Tang Wan's pretty face flushed slightly, but she quickly regained her composure and chuckled, "Mr. Lin, you really know how to joke. But I have encountered some trouble recently!"
"What kind of trouble? Is your company facing difficulties?"
Lin Feng asked curiously. In his opinion, the only thing that could make a strong woman like Tang Wan stressed was her business endeavors.
Tang Wan did not deny it. While her beautiful eyes revealed a hint of melancholy, she recounted: "Mr. Lin may not know, but our Tang family, though seemingly a large clan, is actually divided into two branches.
My grandfather heads one branch of our family, and my second grandfather, as the second branch of the Tang family, also has his own lineage.
My second grandfather's family is blessed with many descendants, and their overall strength has always been stronger than my grandfather's branch.
My company's recent earnings have not been good, and my grandfather is under a lot of pressure. He is constantly being blackmailed by my second grandfather, who wants to control the entire Tang family.
I know that Mr. Lin has a good relationship with Elder Hong Li Ju Hong. Elder Hong holds a project worth tens of billions on Yunlong Mountain, so I would like to ask Mr. Lin to introduce me. I want to secure this project."
Tang Wan said with difficulty.
"Why ask him? I can help you with this matter myself!"
"The renovation of the new city district, a project worth forty billion, isn't that even bigger than the Yunlong Mountain project?"
Lin Feng said with a smile.
