"Alright, let's have a meal together then," Lin Feng said.
Su Rong tried to sound as natural as possible, but she was still a bit anxious inside.
"Yeah, I was planning to mooch off a meal. Xiao Ling, are you willing to let Brother Lin Feng eat here?" Lin Feng bluntly stated, then turned to Xiao Ling in his arms.
"Um..." What surprised Lin Feng was that Xiao Ling shook her head upon hearing his words.
"What's wrong? You don't want to?" Lin Feng asked awkwardly when he saw this.
"No, Xiao Ling wants Brother Lin Feng to come over for dinner every day," Xiao Ling replied in her sweet voice.
"Hehe... that won't do. Mom works hard for money. If Brother comes here to eat every day, then Mom will be eaten poor by Brother Lin Feng," Lin Feng said, feeling relieved that Xiao Ling meant it this way. If she had rejected his request to come over for meals, he would have truly felt at a loss.
"Hehe... Mom, is that true?" Xiao Ling tilted her little head and thought for a moment before asking Su Rong.
"Hehe... no, if your Brother Lin Feng is willing to come, I will prepare his portion every day," Su Rong quickly assured when she saw Xiao Ling asking her.
After all, the value of Lin Feng's prescription alone was enough for him to enjoy delicacies every day, not to mention coming to Su Rong's home for home-cooked meals.
"Hehe... how about it? If it's not possible, Xiao Ling can share a portion with Brother Lin Feng," Xiao Ling said happily after hearing her mom's response and looked at Lin Feng.
"Yeah, Brother Lin Feng really hasn't spoiled Xiao Ling for nothing," Lin Feng was genuinely touched by Xiao Ling's innocent words and couldn't help but give her a gentle kiss on her tender cheek as he said.
"Alright, alright, it's time to eat," Su Rong said to Lin Feng and Xiao Ling, noticing that they had been delaying for a while.
"Okay, let's eat. Xiao Ling, prepare for takeoff, 'whoosh'..." Lin Feng said, and upon hearing Su Rong's words, he stopped chatting with Xiao Ling and lifted her over his head, letting her ride on his shoulders as he 'flew' towards the dining table.
Su Rong watched from behind, momentarily stunned.
The scene was so reminiscent of a family getting ready to eat together.
Su Rong was a woman, and a single mom at that. Although she was a strong woman in her professional life, she was still someone who longed for family and marriage.
At that moment, she couldn't help but think how wonderful it would be if Lin Feng were truly Xiao Ling's father.
At least then, Xiao Ling wouldn't feel so insecure.
Su Rong vaguely remembered the nights when she slept beside Xiao Ling and would often be awakened by her cries—"Daddy, why don't you want Xiao Ling? Xiao Ling will be good; Xiao Ling wants Daddy. I don’t want other kids to laugh at me for not having a daddy."
Every time this happened, Su Rong would comfort Xiao Ling, who was suffering from the pain of losing her father in her dreams, while wiping away her own tears.
Unfortunately, she really didn't know who Xiao Ling's father was; all she knew was that it definitely wasn't that jerk Xu Qiu.
In fact, Su Rong had never even met Xiao Ling's father.
The "family" enjoyed a harmonious meal together, and afterward, Xiao Ling suggested going to Forest Park to play.
"Lin Feng, don't worry about Xiao Ling; if you have things to do this afternoon, just go ahead," Su Rong said. In truth, she also found herself yearning for the idea of going out with them. Ever since Lin Feng had let Xiao Ling ride on his shoulders before dinner, Su Rong had started to long for that feeling of being part of a "family."
No matter what, at least in that moment, Xiao Ling was happy, and as long as Xiao Ling was happy, Su Rong would be happy too.
Su Rong was Mom, and Mom always loved to watch her child laugh and dance in the sunlight.
Su Rong also knew that if Lin Feng accompanied Xiao Ling, she would definitely be very happy.
"Sure, Lin Feng, big brother has nothing to do this afternoon. Let's go play at Forest Park. Xiao Ling, tell your brother what you want to play?" Lin Feng had no plans to return to the company anyway. Although he initially intended to go back after the meeting with Wolf King and the others, now that Xiao Ling had called for him, he completely ignored his work.
Who cares? Lin Feng wasn't worried about that white-collar salary. Besides, even if he didn't go to work in the afternoon, he figured his salary at the end of the month wouldn't be affected at all.
Why? Because Lin Feng was already considered free in his group. To put it bluntly but realistically, Chen Li wasn't as free as Lin Feng.
"I want to ride the Pirate Ship. Before, it was just Mom and me who went together. Mom was even more scared than I was. Now that I have big brother Lin Feng with me, I won't be scared anymore," Xiao Ling said without a second thought.
Clearly, Xiao Ling had already planned where to go and what to play that afternoon; she was just waiting for Lin Feng to arrive.
"Alright then... I'm not afraid of the Pirate Ship at all. What else do you want to play?" Seeing this, Lin Feng confidently assured her. In fact, with Lin Feng's current physical condition, not only the Pirate Ship but even bungee jumping seemed like child's play to him; it posed no challenge at all.
"Um, I want to play..." Xiao Ling didn't hold back and quickly listed several attractions she wanted to try.
Lin Feng agreed to each one; as long as Xiao Ling was happy, even if she wanted stars from the sky, he would go pick them for her.
This might be called indulgence.
After dinner and a short rest on the sand, Lin Feng, Xiao Ling, and Su Rong headed off to Forest Park together.
This time, Lin Feng was driving, while Xiao Ling and Su Rong sat in the back. Xiao Ling chattered away excitedly, clearly thrilled and looking forward to the day.
Lin Feng casually chatted with the little girl, who couldn't stop laughing at his jokes, giggling in Su Rong's arms.
Finally, they arrived at Forest Park. Lin Feng parked the car, and they bought tickets to enter.
Once inside, the little girl dashed straight to her favorite ride—the Pirate Ship. However, to avoid any discomfort after riding the Pirate Ship, Su Rong suggested that Xiao Ling start with some carousel rides.
Seeing that Mom had a point—and mainly because Lin Feng didn’t object—Xiao Ling agreed to follow the adults' plan.
After playing for a while, it was finally time for the Pirate Ship. Xiao Ling held Lin Feng's hand with one hand and Su Rong's with the other as she excitedly went to buy tickets.
Of course, since she was still too young to need a ticket, only Lin Feng and Su Rong had to pay.
At such a young age, it was rare for kids to ride the Pirate Ship, but since Su Rong and Lin Feng didn’t oppose it and Xiao Ling insisted strongly, the staff didn’t want to dampen their spirits. They just repeatedly reminded the two adults to ensure the child's safety.
Lin Feng was confident; after all, with him around, there was no need to worry about Xiao Ling's safety.
Having bought the tickets, Lin Feng and Xiao Ling eagerly prepared to board the ship, while Su Rong felt a bit anxious. For some reason, she always had this underlying worry. But seeing that they had already purchased tickets and not wanting to upset Xiao Ling, she reluctantly followed them onto the ship.
Noticing her concern, Lin Feng squeezed Su Rong's hand and said, "You don't have to be afraid with me here."
Although Su Rong still felt uneasy, she could only nod in response.
Once on board, everything seemed fine at first. However, as if to validate Su Rong's sixth sense about danger, the Pirate Ship began to sway irregularly.
"Ah..." The people on the ship immediately screamed. Lin Feng could hear that this scream came from the depths of their hearts; everyone knew that the Pirate Ship was in trouble.
"Everyone on the ship, please remain calm. The Pirate Ship has encountered a minor issue, and we have already arranged for professionals to address the problem. I assure you, we will ensure your safety," a voice from the Forest Park broadcast announced, delivering news that felt almost hopeless to everyone.
If they were truly that confident, there wouldn't be any so-called "minor issues."
But at this moment, they could only follow orders.
Indeed, it seemed that Forest Park had some preparations in place, as the Pirate Ship finally began to slow down.
However, the Pirate Ship was still suspended in mid-air.
"Attention everyone on the ship, please do not move around. Follow instructions; those at the front of the ship may begin to disembark." After the Pirate Ship stopped, the voice continued over the broadcast. Now that everyone knew the Pirate Ship had come to a halt, their trust in this announcement had increased.
The Pirate Ship could not land on solid ground, so the staff at Forest Park could only send a ladder truck to help everyone disembark.
At this moment, Lin Feng realized that he, along with Xiao Ling and Su Rong, happened to be sitting in the last row.
This left Lin Feng feeling helpless.
Su Rong also noticed this but understood that they couldn't voice their concerns at this time.
Lin Feng felt a bit anxious as well. Although he was a reborn individual with special abilities, he was still human and not a deity; he couldn't fly. In situations like this, if he were just an ordinary person, there would be no need for worry. However, he also had to ensure the safety of Xiao Ling and Su Rong, which made things more challenging.
So at this moment, Lin Feng could only pray that their luck wouldn't be too bad and that they would all get out safely and everything would turn out fine.
"Tesla, what if something goes wrong during the rescue?" Lin Feng asked Tesla in his mind.
"No matter what happens, you will be fine," Tesla replied, completely unaware of Lin Feng's concerns.
"Damn it, I know I will be fine, but how can I ensure that Xiao Ling and her mom are safe too?" Lin Feng felt a strong urge to curse; Tesla was being completely indifferent to the situation.
"Well, I think that's a bit tricky," Tesla continued to respond in an annoyingly casual manner.
At this moment, Lin Feng seriously wanted to tear Tesla apart.
But it was too late now, as the spaceship had already started moving.
And Lin Feng tragically realized that there were only three of them left on the ship.
How did it come to this? Lin Feng couldn't help but wonder if he had forgotten to check the calendar before leaving.
However, at this point, Lin Feng knew he could only face the situation head-on.
