"Sorry, I lost my phone, so I don't have a phone number right now."

Cao Ying's expression shifted slightly as she directly refused Ma Enhua's request for her phone number.

Damn, phone lost? How does that even work? Lin Feng, standing to the side, felt he'd learned something new. Faced with a stranger asking for her number, she could just claim she didn't have a phone. It seemed Cao Ying was quite experienced at this. Curious, Lin Feng remained silent, deciding to see how things would unfold.

He had initially thought these two clowns would leave after Cao Ying's explicit rejection. Surprisingly, they showed no intention of getting up to leave.

After a pause, Zhao Liang coughed twice and said bluntly, "Beauty, let me be honest, my cousin has taken a fancy to you. He's currently single. How about becoming his girlfriend? I guarantee you a life of wealth and luxury."

Seeing that his polite, gentlemanly approach to get her number wasn't working, Zhao Liang instantly shed his gentlemanly disguise, revealing the scoundrel he truly was. They had originally been dining with Ma Enhua's father at Shengshi Hotel. His father, however, had to leave for an emergency. This left Ma Enhua and Zhao Liang waiting idly, bored, which was when they spotted Cao Ying and Lin Feng at a nearby table.

Cao Ying's beauty attracted men's attention wherever she went, and Ma Enhua was no exception; he was captivated by her at first glance. As a notorious playboy, he immediately decided to pursue Cao Ying. That was why he had Zhao Liang act as his vanguard to ask for her phone number.

Of course, they couldn't care less whether Lin Feng was Cao Ying's boyfriend or not.

As the saying goes, "With the right effort, any wall's corner can be dug out." Even if Lin Feng was Cao Ying's boyfriend, Ma Enhua had decided to try and steal her away.

"Sorry, I'm not interested in you."

Hesitating for a moment, and seeing Zhao Liang and Ma Enhua still pestering her relentlessly, Cao Ying, thoroughly disgusted, rejected them outright.

"Beauty, are you single? Or is this guy your boyfriend?" Zhao Liang pointed to Lin Feng, who was seated, and continued, "If you're single, then my cousin can legitimately pursue you, right? In this world, it's not against the law to legitimately pursue a girl you like..."

Zhao Liang stated shamelessly.

"I... you..." Cao Ying stood there, glancing at Ma Enhua, then at Lin Feng, starting to feel flustered. She had never encountered men so thick-skinned before.

"Buddy, you guessed wrong. I am her boyfriend. Please leave."

Seeing Cao Ying's panicked expression, Lin Feng stood up and finally spoke.

"Lin Feng!?"

His words startled not only Zhao Liang and Ma Enhua but also Cao Ying. This guy is clearly trying to take advantage of me! When did I ever become his girlfriend?

Ma Enhua was initially surprised. But when he saw Cao Ying looking at Lin Feng with an equally startled expression, he seemed to understand something. "Buddy, why don't you just stay out of this? I could tell from the start you two aren't a couple."

"Right, couples don't eat dinner like you two, sitting so far apart," Zhao Liang chimed in.

Cao Ying didn't know what Lin Feng was planning and looked at him.

Lin Feng gave a faint smile and said, "We are a couple. Why do we need to prove anything to you? Going by your logic, I could also suspect you two aren't men. Want to drop your pants right now to verify it?"

Cao Ying, who had expected Lin Feng to say something, was aghast when she heard his words. Lin Feng's nerve is unbelievable! Who even talks like that?!

Hearing this, both Zhao Liang and Ma Enhua frowned. Ma Enhua said, "Buddy, stop your shameless pestering. Anyone who can say something like that is not worthy of this lady."

"But I really am his girlfriend. Please stop bothering me."

Just as Lin Feng was about to retort, he felt his arm being tugged. Cao Ying had suddenly reached out, holding his arm and leaning into him like a delicate bird seeking refuge!

This move truly caught Lin Feng off guard. Wasn't Cao Ying disgusted by me pretending to be her boyfriend? Why would she suddenly play along and admit it?

He had no idea that Cao Ying was only doing this to get rid of Ma Enhua and Zhao Liang as quickly as possible.

At Cao Ying's action, Chen Liang and Ma Enhua were momentarily stunned.

"Well? Do we need to prove anything else? Perhaps a kiss to convince you?" Lin Feng said with a smile.

"HISS!"

The moment Lin Feng finished speaking, he felt a searing, sharp pain in his side. Cao Ying had reached out and pinched him hard on the waist. He turned his head to see Cao Ying, blushing and annoyed, glaring at him with a clear warning in her eyes not to speak nonsense.

Lin Feng paid it no mind. Since they were putting on an act, they might as well go all the way. He reached out and swiftly pulled Cao Ying into his embrace!

"Ah~"

Cao Ying let out a soft cry of surprise. She hadn't expected Lin Feng to dare make such a move. His arm was around her slender waist, her body leaning against his shoulder. While it was indeed a typical pose for a couple, Cao Ying felt extremely uncomfortable, her cheeks flushing crimson. If Zhao Liang and Ma Enhua hadn't been there, she would have exploded by now.

"Heh, so they really are boyfriend and girlfriend," Zhao Liang said with a sneer, frowning as he watched Lin Feng pull Cao Ying into his arms.

"So what if they're boyfriend and girlfriend? As long as they're not married, that doesn't take away my right to pursue her, does it?" Just when Cao Ying thought these annoying flies were about to leave, Ma Enhua's words fell like a bucket of cold water.

"Buddy, break up with your girlfriend right now, and I'll give you one million," Ma Enhua declared decisively.

Damn, these two are really asking for a beating! Seriously, they still won't leave even after all this? Hearing Ma Enhua's words, Lin Feng, who had been in a good mood, instantly felt a surge of anger.

"Listen here, pal. She is my woman. Her worth can't be measured in money. She's my one and only, priceless, and more precious to me than my own life. Us breaking up? Absolutely impossible! So, please, show some self-respect. If you continue to harass us, I might not be able to stop myself from beating you up."

Lin Feng's expression hardened as he stared intently at Ma Enhua.

Cao Ying gazed blankly at Lin Feng, catching his unique masculine scent, and for a moment, she was lost in a daze. Could this usually flippant Lin Feng really say something so moving?

"Damn it! So you're refusing the easy way and opting for the hard way, huh? You want to fight me? Don't you even know who my cousin is, you motherf*cker! You, kid, you've pissed us off. You're going to regret this!"

Zhao Liang shouted threateningly from the side, emanating an air of a thug.
