On the other side, Bai Feifei was also smiling, but her pale face revealed that her heart was not as calm as it appeared on the surface.
"Sorry, I need to go to the restroom!" When Ling Feng and Liu Tingyu embraced each other, Bai Feifei finally couldn't bear it any longer. She whispered and then quickly left the private room.
Watching Bai Feifei's retreating figure, Dragon King couldn't help but sigh. Although reality was somewhat cruel for Bai Feifei, as a father, his greatest wish was to see his daughter happy. For the sake of Liu Tingyu, what harm was there in playing the villain once?
Seeing Bai Feifei leave with a pale face, Liu Tingyu couldn't help but push Ling Feng.
Ling Feng was somewhat confused, "What's wrong?"
"Are you stupid, aren't you going to chase after her?" Liu Tingyu whispered, "Sister Feifei has been kind to me, she's still my dad's disciple, and I also know her feelings for you, so..."
Ling Feng was touched and kissed Liu Tingyu on the forehead, then said to Dragon King, "Uncle Liu, I'm going out for a bit!"
Dragon King and Ling Feng looked at each other for a few seconds, then Dragon King slowly said, "Go ahead, but don't forget who you are!"
Ling Feng nodded and then pushed the door open to leave.
Liu Tingyu breathed a sigh of relief. She had already sensed what Dragon King was doing, and her gaze towards Dragon King also showed a touch of tenderness.
"You silly child!" Xia Wan'er hugged Liu Tingyu with some heartache. The wise woman had already understood everything, incessantly saying, "Is it really good for you to indulge Ling Feng like this?"
Liu Tingyu smiled slightly, "Aunt Wan, some men are destined not to be restrained. Instead of suppressing his feelings and eventually causing our feelings to deteriorate, why not guide his emotions from the start? I believe that no matter when, I will always be the woman he loves most in his heart!"
Xia Wan'er looked at Liu Tingyu with some surprise. She now realized she could no longer understand Liu Tingyu as well as she thought. Initially, Liu Tingyu had seemed like a somewhat rebellious young woman to her, but now, Liu Tingyu appeared far more mature than she had imagined, and her thoughts reflected wisdom that one typically understands only after experiencing many setbacks!
"Ting Yu, are these your true feelings?" Xia Wan'er couldn't help but ask. "You know, both your father and I do not want you to suffer any grievances."
Liu Tingyu shook her head, "You misunderstand, these are my true feelings. In fact, after I fell in love with Ling Feng, I gradually began to understand my dad. Ling Feng and my dad are the same type of people, the kind who are not quick to speak of love, but once in love, they never let go!"
Dragon King, hearing his daughter say this, blushed and couldn't help but give a soft cough.
Liu Tingyu glanced towards the door: "I trust Ling Feng, and that's why I have this confidence to let go!"
...
Meanwhile, Ling Feng stood outside the door, watching Bai Feifei's shoulders tremble and he couldn't help but sigh softly.
For Bai Feifei, Ling Feng did hold affection, because Bai Feifei was a very pure and strong person! As for her feelings for him, Ling Feng was not a fool; the confessions she made after leaving the Bai Family still echoed in his ears!
More than friends, less than lovers! That was how they had defined their relationship at that time. Until now, something still felt lacking in their relationship.
"Wipe your tears," Ling Feng walked up to Bai Feifei, holding out a tissue.
"Ah, my eyes are blinded by sand!" Bai Feifei frantically rubbed her eyes, trying to hide her tears.
Ling Feng felt a pang of distress. When had the fearless policewoman, who once boldly strode into drug trafficking dens alone, become a teary-eyed Sister Lin?
"I'm sorry!" After thinking for a moment, Ling Feng realized he had nothing to explain and could only say this.
Bai Feifei looked at Ling Feng's somewhat constrained expression and couldn't help but laugh, "Sorry? What do you have to be sorry for? We never really started anything! Go back, Liu Tingyu is a great girl, and you shouldn't let her down. But rest assured, I won't interfere with you two!"
"Feifei!" Ling Feng looked at Bai Feifei, who was forcing a smile, and couldn't help but frown, "You..."
"Let's not talk anymore, I should go back!" Bai Feifei interrupted him, preparing to walk back.
Ling Feng grabbed Bai Feifei's hand, "Feifei, does it really have to be like this between us?"
"Please let go!" Bai Feifei said coldly, "Although I once pursued you, it doesn't mean I am a girl without dignity! Or are you trying to keep me as a mistress while you maintain both relationships?"
Ling Feng was stunned; he could hardly believe these words came from Bai Feifei! Her cold expression at the moment made Ling Feng feel uncomfortable; he treasured Bai Feifei's friendship, but...
Bai Feifei broke free from Ling Feng's grasp and said indifferently, "Alright, we should try to contact each other less in the future, considering the circumstances. Go back, your mentor would be unhappy if it becomes too late!"
Saying this, Bai Feifei decisively turned around and returned to the private room.
Ling Feng stood outside alone, his face showing utmost complexity; he felt he might have done something wrong!
Returning to the private room, he sensed a weird awkwardness in the originally lively atmosphere, like a secret everyone knew but no one addresses, making Ling Feng feel somewhat helpless.
"Master, I haven't completed my cultivation tasks for today; I need to go and continue my cultivation now!" After eating a bit, Bai Feifei respectfully said to Dragon King.
Dragon King nodded, "Good, cultivation is like rowing upstream, not to advance is to drop back. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me anytime! After all, you are my Dragon King's only disciple, and my expectations for you are high!"
"Yes, Master!" Bai Feifei nodded and then turned away to leave.
The departure of Bai Feifei did not alleviate the awkward atmosphere. Seeing that things were amiss, Liu Tingyu hastily dragged Ling Feng out.
After the young couple left, Xia Wan'er stood next to Dragon King and said softly, "Cheng Feng, is this fair to Feifei?"
Dragon King said sternly, "There's nothing about fair or not fair! I only care about my daughter's happiness. As for Feifei, this child has great potential. Although she started her cultivation late, I will cultivate her carefully to inherit my mantle!"
Xia Wan'er sighed, "I think Tingyu makes a lot of sense. Some things should be left for the younger ones to handle. We should just watch and see how things unfold!"
Dragon King wanted to say something, but after a long while, he sighed, "Alright, I won't interfere with their emotions in the future, but if Ling Feng hurts Tingyu's heart, I certainly won't let him off!"
