CHAPTER 599: CHAPTER 599 MISS FENG

"Why is everyone quiet? Am I interrupting you?" Miss Feng blinked her large eyes framed with fake lashes, holding on to Feng Aimin’s arm, but her gaze was fixed on Xu Ke from the start, making Lin Mengyao feel uncomfortable.

"What are you messing around here for? Shouldn’t you be by your mother’s side?" Feng Aimin’s smile remained, but if you looked closely, you could see it starting to stiffen.

"It’s so boring over with mom. I saw you here all alone with the guests and thought you’d be lonely, so I came over." Miss Feng dragged out her words, afraid Xu Ke wouldn’t feel her sweetness, but in fact, Xu Ke hated such voices the most, sounding like a boy going through puberty, like an eunuch, and found it torturous to listen to.

"Since Mr. Feng still has things to do here, my wife and I will take our leave." Xu Ke ignored Miss Feng’s annoying face and voice, and bid farewell to Feng Aimin.

Feng Aimin nodded, "Alright, it was a pleasure chatting with you. I hope we’ll have the chance to visit your home in the future." Feng Aimin said humbly.

"The pleasure is mine," Xu Ke said with a smile.

Logically, the social interaction between Xu Ke and Feng Aimin could be considered over for the moment, but someone was targeting him specifically, how could he leave so easily?

"Don’t go; you’ve finished talking to my dad but haven’t talked to me yet. I’m Feng Yiweng, you can call me Wenwen. I’ve introduced myself, now it’s your turn." Feng Yiweng ignored Feng Aimin pinching her arm, her eyes staring straight at Xu Ke, waiting for his response.

Xu Ke’s smile faded considerably, "I’m Xu Ke, and this is my wife Lin Mengyao." Xu Ke emphasized the word wife, and Feng Aimin already felt embarrassed, barely maintaining his smile.

"Your name sounds so nice. Can I come over to your house to visit? I don’t know anyone here in Shangjing, and I don’t know who to hang out with. The moment I saw you, I felt a great connection. I want to be friends, so can I come often?" Miss Feng’s eyes almost seemed glued to Xu Ke, asking very impudent questions.

Xu Ke’s smile completely disappeared. It was an obvious "I am not happy" emotion, but anyone with a bit of emotional intelligence could see they’d displeased the other party and would try to smooth it over immediately. However, Miss Feng seemed completely clueless, waiting wholeheartedly for Xu Ke’s answer.

Feng Aimin felt the veins on his temples were about to burst. He couldn’t figure out what he did in a previous life to deserve a daughter who only drags him down.

"Don’t worry about it, Mr. Xu. She’s just joking around. My daughter is a bit mischievous and loves to joke, although her sense of humor differs from others’ and no one gets her jokes, so you don’t need to take her words to heart." Feng Aimin came out to smooth things over.

"Dad, what are you talking about? I wasn’t joking at all; I was serious. Don’t listen to my dad talking nonsense; he doesn’t understand anything. I truly want to know where you live; I want to visit." Miss Feng looked sincerely at Xu Ke, waiting for his answer.

"I’m really sorry, my husband and I are usually very busy with work, and we’re rarely at home. We don’t usually invite guests over because we honestly don’t have time to entertain them, so I truly apologize." Lin Mengyao clutched Xu Ke’s arm, her face cold, exuding an unspoken nobility and indifference, countless times more graceful than Miss Feng.

It wasn’t until Lin Mengyao spoke up that Miss Feng shifted her gaze to her, sizing Mengyao up and down and quietly cursing her as a slut, thinking Mengyao wasn’t worthy of someone as handsome as Xu Ke since she looked like a troublemaker.

"Then can I visit you at work?" Miss Feng discreetly rolled her eyes at Lin Mengyao and fixed her gaze back on Xu Ke, seemingly brimming with endless energy.

However, who would these self-assured small gestures delude? No one present was a fool; everyone saw it.

Feng Aimin could no longer lift his head due to Miss Feng’s words; her behavior was utterly shameless. "Do you know what you’re saying? If you’re drunk, get back to the lounge right now and stop embarrassing me." Feng Aimin grasped Miss Feng’s wrist tightly, almost as if he intended to break it, but no one present voiced any sympathy.

Miss Feng felt no fault but only thought Feng Aimin was making her look bad in front of Xu Ke, which was awful.

"Are you really my father, humiliating me in front of others? What’s your intention?" One could perhaps celebrate that Miss Feng remembered her character and kept her voice down, otherwise, it would have attracted a crowd, which Xu Ke wouldn’t have cared for, but no one likes being made a spectacle.

"It seems Mr. Feng has matters to resolve, so my wife and I won’t intrude and will take our leave." Xu Ke said without waiting for Feng Aimin’s response, and actually left the banquet with Lin Mengyao.

This was the first time Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao left a host’s event so abruptly, with the banquet just starting.

As Lin Mengyao stepped out of the banquet, her expression turned grim.

"Why are you angry?" Xu Ke asked, lifting Lin Mengyao’s pouting face.

"You’re seriously asking me why I’m angry? I’m your wife standing right next to you, and she pretends not to see me, keeps talking to you, and wants to visit our home. What’s she trying to do?" Lin Mengyao asked furiously.

"There’s no need to bother with someone like that; society will teach her a lesson. Besides, I already turned her down. I don’t like her; I only like you." Xu Ke said affectionately and tenderly kissed the corner of Lin Mengyao’s mouth to comfort her.

Yet, this made it even harder to swallow for Lin Mengyao, "No, I can’t get over this. Why are they all attracted to you, lining up to get close, ignoring my presence? What’s wrong with my status? Despite my background, I am the wife you married openly; regardless of status, I got you first. Doesn’t the principle of first come, first served mean anything to them? How can they act so shamelessly?" Lin Mengyao was truly outraged today, trembling as if she were freezing.
