After hearing her father Su Zhenxian’s request, Su Zi was obviously startled for a moment before dazedly responding with an "hmm" and handed the phone to Lin Feng, "Lin Feng, my dad wants to talk to you on the phone..."
Lin Feng was a bit surprised as well. He took the phone, cautious not to be careless, and asked formally, "Old Su, is there anything you want me to do?"
"Lin Feng... didn’t I tell you to protect Su Zi properly? Why did such a thing happen tonight? Where were you when Su Zi was being held by those guys?" Su Zhenxian didn’t hold back in the slightest against Lin Feng. Although he managed to keep his volume down, his tone was full of anger, making people nervous.
Lin Feng showed a bitter smile. The situation where Su Zi was kidnapped wasn’t entirely his fault, as when it happened, he was still at the villa treating the scars on Xue Qingyi’s back. But no matter how it happened, since Su Zhenxian entrusted his precious daughter to Lin Feng, the unexpected incident counted as a bit of negligence on Lin Feng’s part.
"Old Su, I’m sorry, I didn’t want this to happen either!" Lin Feng lightly coughed, speaking sincerely.
Su Zi had a hint of nervousness in her eyes. She could tell that Su Zhenxian was blaming Lin Feng, and she was somewhat anxious. Lin Feng was the one who saved her, how could her father be so unreasonable and blame Lin Feng instead? The blame should be put on Su Long and the others for being incompetent!
"Hm, just saying sorry and that’s it?" Su Zhenxian retorted unceremoniously to Lin Feng, "My daughter’s life was almost lost, don’t you have anything to say for yourself?"
Lin Feng was somewhat at a loss, "What do you mean, Old Su?"
"Lin Feng, don’t forget you promised me that if Su Zi was in danger in Jiangzhou, I would send her to the Imperial City to study. Today’s incident shows that Su Zi might face some unexplainable dangers in Jiangzhou. If you can’t guarantee her safety, I’ll have to bring her back to study as per the conditions you promised before!" Su Zhenxian said faintly.
Lin Feng was slightly taken aback and was about to speak when Su Zi suddenly spoke angrily, saying into the phone, "No, I’m not going back to the Imperial City to study! Dad, don’t worry, I won’t wander around anymore, Lin Feng will definitely protect me well!"
Uh, Lin Feng didn’t expect Su Zi to overhear Su Zhenxian’s words and react so intensely... Lin Feng simply put the phone on speaker.
There was silence on the phone for a good ten seconds before Su Zhenxian spoke again, "This silly girl... alright, since you trust Lin Feng so much, I’ll trust him one more time! But that boy better not let you get into any more danger, or I won’t spare him!"
Lin Feng replied with a wry smile, "Don’t worry, Old Su, I won’t be careless anymore!"
Then, Su Zi continued talking privately with Su Zhenxian for a few more minutes before hanging up the phone.
Turning around, Su Zi looked Lin Feng up and down, feeling more and more appreciative of him, "My dad actually said I should listen to you more when I’m in Jiangzhou. It looks like you really have something special to gain his trust like that!"
"What trust? Didn’t he just blame me for failing to protect you properly?" Lin Feng looked at Su Zi helplessly.
"Actually, it’s like this..." Su Zi’s face suddenly showed an embarrassed expression, "I’ve already explained everything to him about tonight’s incident. He knows that the main responsibility for tonight lies on me being too playful and not allowing Su Long and the others to follow, which led to the situation. If I had taken Su Long and the others upstairs, there wouldn’t have been any danger at all. Those guys would have been subdued before they had a chance to take hostages! My dad didn’t want to directly blame me, and he was worried you’d be careless, so that’s why he said that!"
"I get it... So, I’m the one taking the fall for you!" Lin Feng glanced at Su Zi with a grudge.
"Yeah, so what?! Most people don’t even get the chance to take the blame for this girl, you’re getting a bargain!" Su Zi smiled sweetly, looking quite smug and enticing as she spoke to Lin Feng.
With no one else around, seeing Su Zi so arrogant, Lin Feng wouldn’t tolerate it. He grabbed the girl, held her in front of him, and pinned her down on the sofa, giving her a harsh kiss, making her blush and gasp for breath before saying more.
Finally, when Su Zi returned from her daze, most of the buttons on her clothes had been undone by Lin Feng, and she suddenly seemed to remember something. She spoke softly to Lin Feng, "Uh, by the way, Lin Feng, my dad said he’ll be coming to Jiangzhou for a conference in a few days, he hopes to meet us then!"
Chancellor Su is coming to Jiangzhou for a conference?! Lin Feng paused, searching his mind for information, but found nothing in the recent news about any big events happening in Jiangzhou. Why would Chancellor Su suddenly come to Jiangzhou out of the blue?!
"Did Old Su mention what conference he’s attending?" Lin Feng asked.
"I don’t know..." Su Zi shook her head and took out her phone, "Should I ask him again?"
"No, let it be! I’ll find out when he arrives," Lin Feng shook his head, knowing that with today’s advanced technology, many people can tap into phone surveillance, so he didn’t want Su Zi to risk exposing Su Zhenxian’s whereabouts with a phone call... at least he knew that someone at Xiang Wang’s level could intercept Su Zi’s calls at any time.
Although he didn’t let Su Zi contact Su Zhenxian, Lin Feng was silently speculating about Su Zhenxian’s intentions... While speculating, Lin Feng subtly used a hint of innate vitality, drawing on the Mystery Deduction Technique’s thought process to infer Su Zhenxian’s intentions. Unfortunately, whether it was the difficulty of predicting fate or Lin Feng’s lack of skill, he only felt a dense fog in his mind, unable to foresee what might happen in the future.
Su Zi didn’t really care about Su Zhenxian’s reasons; she was just a little excited that he was coming to Jiangzhou.
"Lin Feng, when he arrives, where do you think we should take him to wander around? He’s always so busy, he’ll definitely handle his business during the day. I estimate he’ll be able to spare an hour or two to be with me in the evening, maybe we could take him disguised on a tour of Jiangzhou’s night scene?"
Regarding Su Zi’s suggestion, Lin Feng could only say, Miss Su, your request is quite bold, quite creative... Do you seriously think people in Jiangzhou wouldn’t recognize Chancellor Su? Even if you didn’t give him clothes to wear, he still couldn’t go incognito!
"I think we should go to sleep now!" Lin Feng slightly opened his mouth, yawned, and said seriously.
