Xia Wan'er had sent them the address to the VIP room at Quanjude.

By the time they arrived, Xia Wan'er was the only person in the private room.

"Aunt Wan, why are you alone? Where's my dad?" Liu Tingyu asked Xia Wan'er with some curiosity, "Wasn't my dad keen on meeting Ling Feng today?"

Ling Feng bowed respectfully to Xia Wan'er: "Hello Aunt Wan!"

Xia Wan'er looked Ling Feng up and down. Although she had speculated about Ling Feng's identity with Dragon King before, now, looking at him, Ling Feng's smile seemed so sunny, he hardly seemed like the Blood-Handed Asura who struck terror in the entire Underworld!

"Xiao Feng, please take a seat first!" Xia Wan'er said with a smile, "Ting Yu's dad was tied up with something urgent, but he will be here soon!"

Ling Feng smiled faintly, "Aunt Wan, I am sorry that our meeting was so rushed today that I didn't bring you any gift…"

Liu Tingyu took Xia Wan'er by the hand and said, "Aunt Wan, don't blame Ling Feng for this. We had no idea my dad was so eager to meet him, a few days' notice would have been better, this is quite sudden!"

Xia Wan'er tapped Liu Tingyu's head and laughed out loud, "You little sly one, I haven't said anything yet, and you are already defending your boyfriend?"

Liu Tingyu stuck out her tongue, looking innocent and cute.

Xia Wan'er turned to look at Ling Feng: "Xiao Feng, I don't need anything. All I ask is that you treat Ting Yu well, that's the only request we, as parents, have!"

Ling Feng could tell from Xia Wan'er's words how much she doted on Liu Tingyu. He smiled and said, "Even though it was short notice, it's not like I didn't prepare anything."

Liu Tingyu was surprised, "Ling Feng, you actually prepared a gift? How come I didn't know about it?"

Ling Feng looked at Liu Tingyu tenderly, "Actually, I have been awaiting this day, so I prepared in advance, also wanting to give you a surprise!"

As he spoke, Ling Feng took out a box from inside his coat and handed it to Xia Wan'er, "Aunt Wan, this local specialty might not be much, but please don't look down upon it!"

A local specialty? Both Liu Tingyu and Xia Wan'er were a bit surprised, wondering what kind of local specialty would fit inside a small box.

"You didn't put something weird inside, did you?" Liu Tingyu looked skeptically at Ling Feng, "Tell me first what's inside."

"If I tell you, it will spoil the surprise!" Ling Feng said with a smile, "Just open it and see!"

Xia Wan'er glanced at Ling Feng, then opened the box.

"Wow!" Upon seeing the contents of the box, Liu Tingyu's eyes went wide in astonishment, "Ling Feng, you must tell me this isn't real, this can't be real!"

Although Xia Wan'er remained composed, the flash of astonishment that passed through her eyes didn't escape Ling Feng's sharp notice.

Inside the box lay a string of pale blue diamond necklace!

Under the room's lighting, it reflected a series of dreamlike colors.

"So beautiful!" Liu Tingyu looked somewhat dazed at the necklace and said with a trace of sourness, "Hmph, we've known each other for so long and yet you've never given me such a beautiful necklace! You actually bribed my Aunt Wan first, truly a man with schemes!"

Liu Tingyu's playful complaint subtly pointed out Ling Feng's thoughtful gesture with this gift, and she believed Ling Feng would never present a fake!

Xia Wan'er's eyes sparkled with fondness; no woman could resist the allure of this necklace.

"Ling Feng, this couldn't be the Heart of the Ocean, could it?" Xia Wan'er asked softly.

"The Heart of the Ocean? What's that?" Liu Tingyu asked curiously.

Ling Feng nodded, "Aunt Wan really has a good eye, this indeed is the Heart of the Ocean. This necklace was a gift from a friend I once helped, and I think only the Heart of the Ocean is worthy of matching Aunt Wan's beauty and elegance!"

Xia Wan'er said with a wry smile, "Xiao Feng, this gift is really too much; I can't accept it!"

Liu Tingyu became anxious, "Hey, you haven't told me what the Heart of the Ocean is yet!"

"The Heart of the Ocean, it is said to be the favorite necklace of Venus, the goddess of love in Ancient Greece. However, it was lost to the Atlantic when the Titanic sank, and no news of the Heart of the Ocean has been heard since then, and now..." Xia Wan'er looked at the necklace, and though reluctant, she still handed it back to Ling Feng.

Liu Tingyu was stunned, "So you mean to say this necklace is priceless?"

"Certainly, it's beyond any price!" Xia Wan'er handed it to Ling Feng, "Xiao Feng, I appreciate your sentiment, but this is simply too precious. I cannot accept it!"

Ling Feng said with a smile, "Aunt Wan, no matter how valuable the Heart of the Ocean is, in my eyes, Ling Feng, it's just an object after all. Compared to it, you have already given me the most precious thing in the world. Next to her, the Heart of the Ocean is insignificantly lesser in worth!"

As he spoke, Ling Feng took Liu Tingyu's hand and said earnestly, "Tingyu is the most precious to me. Actually, I intended to use the Heart of the Ocean to signify Tingyu's place in my heart. Since you have entrusted me with the most precious daughter in the world, I can only offer the Heart of the Ocean to show how much I treasure Tingyu!"

Liu Tingyu gazed at Ling Feng as if her eyes were pools of spring water, nearly overflowing.

Xia Wan'er looked at the young couple and, with a sigh, accepted the Heart of the Ocean, "Xiao Feng, I understand your feelings for Tingyu now! I believe you will protect her well, won't you?"

"Aunt Wan, rest assured, I, Ling Feng, would even risk my life to prevent Tingyu from getting hurt!" Ling Feng said earnestly.

Liu Tingyu also cheerfully said, "Aunt Wan, I believe in Ling Feng, and I ask that you also believe in him!"

Xia Wan'er, looking at them, said with a smile, "If that's the case, then the Heart of the Ocean should be given to Tingyu."

Ling Feng said mysteriously, "Aunt Wan, the Heart of the Ocean is elegant and noble, a perfect match for your temperament. Without any precious jewels, Ting Yu is still incredibly beautiful!"

Liu Tingyu pouted and said, "Well, I can tell, you just want to please my Aunt Wan, hmph. I want it too!"

Ling Feng said in a gentle voice, "Though the Heart of the Ocean is precious, it's not irreplaceable. I have a gift that is truly unique in this world, which I'll give to you in front of Uncle later. I hope we can have Uncle and Aunt Wan's blessing!"

Seeing Ling Feng's serious demeanor, Liu Tingyu couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation. What kind of gift could it be that it's even more precious than the Heart of the Ocean?

"Really, Dad is being unusually slow this time!" Liu Tingyu couldn't help a small whisper of complaint about her tardy father.
