At this moment, Zhong Jiaheng was also sizing up Shen Xinyue; he too was captivated by her beauty.
However, he dared not speak carelessly. Others might not know Lin Feng’s identity, but he had witnessed it firsthand.
The problem was, he knew Lin Feng’s identity and couldn't tell anyone else.
Now, his parents treated him like he was mentally ill, and he felt wronged!
"No, no boyfriend."
Shen Xinyue replied with a dry laugh.
"No boyfriend is good, Xiao Shen, come sit down and eat with us."
Xue Jingmei pulled Shen Xinyue to sit beside her.
"Xiao Shen, what do you think of my Jiaheng? My son is a soldier overseas, and he's very skilled. It was just a few days ago that he had an accident during the Dragon Tooth selection competition, otherwise, my son would already be a member of the Dragon Tooth Special Forces."
Xue Jingmei seized the opportunity to play matchmaker.
"Auntie, I, I don't want to find a boyfriend yet."
Shen Xinyue politely refused.
"Miss Shen, I think you can consider my cousin. My cousin is quite handsome and a good match for you."
Xia Xue also started to play matchmaker, not out of genuine desire to help Zhong Jiaheng find a girlfriend.
Instead, she wanted to get rid of Shen Xinyue, lest Shen Xinyue get involved with Lin Feng.
"Yes, although Jiaheng lost the competition, he's still a good kid. You can try to get to know each other."
Xue Jingru joined in as a go-between.
"I…"
Shen Xinyue, overwhelmed by the three women, didn't know how to respond and looked at Lin Feng for help.
"Why are you looking at me? This is your own business, I have no opinion."
Lin Feng quickly distanced himself from Shen Xinyue, fearing that Xue Jingru and Xia Weiguo would misunderstand, which would be disastrous.
Shen Xinyue knew Lin Feng was afraid of being misunderstood, so she had a flash of inspiration and said, "I just want to hear your opinion. You know my feelings for you!"
With that, she even feigned a shy maiden’s demeanor, coyly biting her lip.
This scene stunned Xue Jingru and Xue Jingmei.
What did that mean? This girl was interested in Lin Feng?
Xia Xue angrily nudged Lin Feng's arm, "Lin Feng, she's asking your opinion, why aren't you saying anything?"
"What should I say? Matters of the heart are her own business. How she decides has nothing to do with me?"
Lin Feng was speechless and said sternly, "Shen Xinyue, don't mess around, don't push everything onto me. We're just in a superior-subordinate relationship."
"I'm not pushing anything onto you. I just don't want to find a boyfriend. I'm working for you now, and I'm willing to keep working for you."
Shen Xinyue smiled brightly, her words carrying even more hidden meaning.
Xue Jingru tugged at Xia Xue's sleeve, "Xiao Xue, something's not right here. Mom feels that this Miss Shen girl is interested in Xiao Lin!"
"Don't be so casual and dismissive. Xiao Lin is quite attractive, you need to keep an eye on him!"
Xue Jingru reminded her seriously.
"Mom, I know."
Xia Xue felt a bit awkward and quickly asked Zhong Jiaheng, "Cousin, what do you think of Miss Shen? Don't we all try to help you, but you don't even state your position!"
"I, I'll listen to Lin Feng. If he says yes, then it's yes."
Zhong Jiaheng dared not state his position. He was afraid of Lin Feng and even more afraid of competing with Lin Feng for a woman.
"What are you saying, son? This is your own business, why are you listening to Lin Feng? Is he your father, am I your father!"
Zhong Kaishan couldn't stand it anymore. He, as a man, didn't want to interfere in his children's romantic affairs.
Now, his son's words and actions made him look down on him.
Such a grown man, with no opinion of his own, listening to Lin Feng for everything.
What was going on?
Had he recognized Lin Feng as his godfather?
Zhong Kaishan gritted his teeth in anger. Ever since he failed the Dragon Tooth selection competition, his son had become increasingly disappointing.
"Dad, he's not a father, but he's more intimidating than my father!"
Zhong Jiaheng said with a bitter face, his words shocking.
"What the heck!?"
Not only Zhong Kaishan but everyone at the table, except for Xia Xue and Lin Feng, was stunned.
Even Shen Xinyue found it amusing.
