"Ha ha... What do you think?" In response, Lin Feng directly answered in English, firmly believing that facts speak louder than words.
"Really, have you been abroad?" Xiao Ya seemed to catch on; Lin Feng's English sounded quite authentic, similar to what she had heard online. However, she was still somewhat skeptical and continued to probe.
"I've been to many places abroad, like London, Houston..." Lin Feng could easily see through Xiao Ya's cautiousness and continued to respond.
"Oh, Lin Feng, you really understand English! That's great! Can you help me practice my spoken English?" Seeing that Lin Feng's spoken English was indeed impressive, Xiao Ya, who had been struggling to find someone to practice with, was excited and quickly invited him.
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng couldn't help but feel frustrated with himself for showing off. Now he was in a bit of a bind.
However, while he blamed himself for being too showy, Lin Feng had no intention of agreeing to Xiao Ya's so-called request. He was very busy every day, and this would be a long-term commitment. Although Xiao Ya was quite attractive, Lin Feng was not someone who would sacrifice his freedom for a pretty face.
In fact, no matter how fluent his English was, Lin Feng preferred Chinese. After all, it was his mother tongue. Regardless of how good his English might be, he only spoke it out of necessity.
Living abroad meant that if you didn't speak English, you couldn't expect foreigners to speak Chinese.
So now that he was back in the country, he absolutely refused to speak any English.
With that thought in mind, Lin Feng slapped his forehead in regret and said, "You see my memory; I almost forgot to pick up Lin Dong from work. Xiao Ya, keep up the good work; I believe in you. I'm off now."
After saying this, Lin Feng quickly left.
Just then, Lin Mei was also preparing to leave, so Lin Feng successfully made his escape.
Sitting in the car with Lin Mei, Lin Feng focused on driving towards the Lin family home.
"What were you and Xiao Ya talking about outside just now?" Lin Mei, being the person she is, could tell from a mere glance at Xiao Ya's expression towards Lin Feng that they must have discussed something outside.
"Nothing much, I just noticed that Xiao Ya is quite hardworking. Even at this time, she's working while self-studying English. She's a really ambitious kid." Lin Feng had clearly prepared this response in advance and said it directly.
"Oh, right. Xiao Ya is indeed quite ambitious." Upon hearing this, Lin Mei naturally had no doubts. After Lin Feng's explanation, she agreed and continued along with his words.
"Mm." Having passed the inquiry, Lin Feng didn't say much more, nodding as he continued to drive.
After dropping Lin Mei off at home, when Lin Feng returned to his own house, he found He Ting waiting for him.
"What's up, Officer He?" Lin Feng asked, not surprised by her presence.
"Don't you want to ask how I got a key to your house?" He Ting curiously inquired since Lin Feng hadn't asked how she knew about the key.
"Hehe... I remember that I'm not the only one who has a key to this place." Lin Feng chuckled and replied.
"Yeah, I went to find Sister Dong. She's busy with city matters. When I mentioned I was coming to see you, she said she hadn't seen you in a long time and decided to come with me." He Ting explained.
Since the moment he rescued Dong Jie from Wang Sheng, Lin Feng had known that Dong Jie and He Ting had a good relationship. Therefore, he naturally believed He Ting's words; after all, he hadn't seen Dong Jie in quite a while either.
"Oh, Jie Jie is here too?" Lin Feng quickly asked upon hearing this.
Since it was his own home, Lin Feng didn't have the habit of scanning the house with his Mental Power as soon as he entered. However, he knew that even if he didn't, Tesla was always on alert for everything around him. Perhaps because Tesla was aware of his relationship with Dong Jie, it hadn't informed Lin Feng that she was in the house.
Now hearing He Ting mention that Dong Jie was also there, he quickly expanded his Mental Power to scan the area, clearly wanting to locate where Dong Jie was.
With Lin Feng's currently powerful Mental Power, he could easily sense where Dong Jie was within his house.
However, after a quick scan, Lin Feng suddenly found it hard to look away, because Dong Jie was in the bathroom of Lin Feng's house.
What was Dong Jie doing in the bathroom? The answer was obvious; she was taking a shower.
Mental Power paused at the bathroom door, and Lin Feng hesitated about whether to penetrate through the bathroom door to take a good look.
In the end, under his constant warnings to himself, Lin Feng decided not to let Mental Power continue penetrating and instead called it back.
With Lin Feng's current strength of Mental Power, he could easily penetrate the bathroom door. However, considering the unnecessary nature of secretly watching Dong Jie this way, Lin Feng chose to withdraw Mental Power.
At this moment, He Ting, who noticed Lin Feng's silence, was unaware that he had just gone through a fierce internal struggle.
"Sister Dong is taking a shower in the bathroom," He Ting said proactively when she saw Lin Feng not speaking.
"Well then, let's chat. I assume you came to find me for something?" Lin Feng replied.
"Nothing special, just wanted to hear about your progress," He Ting said as she sat down.
Lin Feng poured two glasses of red wine and sat down on the sofa opposite He Ting, handing her one of the glasses. "It's been about the same lately. I found Millennium Ginseng for Old Lin; he trusts me a lot. Today I was promoted to be Lin Mei's assistant."
"Oh, I see. That's good. Being close to Lin Mei means you've made some breakthroughs," He Ting responded.
"Yes, and it seems that Wang Jin, our Public Relations Manager at Cash Dragon Group, is a corporate spy. However, he appears to be someone who is only motivated by money. I've already handed over his criminal information to one of his rivals in the company; hopefully, she can help get him kicked out," Lin Feng shared after thinking for a moment.
"Oh, well done! Just manage it yourself; I have confidence in you," He Ting praised after hearing Lin Feng's report.
"Hehe... I think you're the most irresponsible boss ever," Lin Feng said with a wry smile upon hearing her response. He felt that He Ting was too relaxed; she left everything for him to handle while only being responsible for listening to reports.
"Hehe... Those who are capable do more work. Who told you to be so outstanding?" He Ting said.
"Alright, stop beating around the bush. Jie Jie is out," Lin Feng said, noticing that the exchange of information with He Ting had concluded and Dong Jie had come out of the bathroom.
Sure enough, as soon as Lin Feng finished speaking, Dong Jie entered the living room, smiling at Lin Feng and asking, "What were you talking about?"
Lin Feng replied, "Nothing, just chatting."
"Yes, Jie Jie, I'm looking forward to seeing your skills. When can you cook? I'll help you out," He Ting chimed in cleverly.
"Anytime is fine. You don't need to trouble yourself, Officer He. Just sit and wait for the food," Dong Jie said with a smile, clearly not believing that He Ting could be of much help; it would be good enough if she didn't cause any trouble.
"Hehe... That's true. Then I'll trouble you, Sister Dong," He Ting said somewhat shyly.
"Jie Jie, it's not easy for you to come here. How could I let you cook? Today, I'll take care of it. You all just wait here; I guarantee you'll want to swallow your tongues after tasting it," Lin Feng said, not willing to let Dong Jie cook for him and headed into the kitchen by himself.
"Lin Feng, can you cook?" He Ting asked with a puzzled expression.
"Hehe... You'll find out whether I can cook soon enough," Lin Feng confidently replied to He Ting without saying anything else.
"Sister Dong, are you sure you can trust him to cook?" He Ting looked at Dong Jie for help, not believing that this big man Lin Feng could actually cook.
"Hehe... Lin Feng is just stubborn like that. Once he decides to do something, even eight horses can't pull him back. We just have to wait," Dong Jie said, clearly understanding Lin Feng. She knew that since he insisted on doing it, there was no point in saying anything; if he wanted to fuss around, let him fuss.
In fact, Dong Jie also understood that Lin Feng insisted on cooking because he didn't want her to be too tired. So at this moment, she naturally wouldn't stop him.
In the end, He Ting watched as Lin Feng confidently entered the kitchen and could only pray in her heart that he wouldn't end up making a table full of poison.
Based on He Ting's speculation about Lin Feng's cooking skills, she just hopes that whatever he makes won't be toxic due to some chemical reactions. As for whether it tastes good or not, well, as long as it doesn't kill anyone, that's fine.
At this moment, Lin Feng is unaware of He Ting's lack of confidence in him. He first checks the ingredients that Dong Jie bought and then starts to think about how to prepare the dishes.
The ingredients were purchased by Dong Jie, so Lin Feng can only work with what he has. Although it requires some thought, Lin Feng isn't afraid; his culinary skills are not just about making simple dishes.
While abroad, Lin Feng had also taken the time to study cooking. He does have the ability to prepare a delicious home-cooked meal.
After deciding which dish to make, Lin Feng begins to process the ingredients. During this process, he inevitably uses some knife skills. With Lin Feng's current martial arts proficiency, when he uses a bit of Internal Energy while cutting, even chefs skilled in knife techniques would have to bow down in admiration.
Once the ingredients are prepared, Lin Feng starts heating up the stove and begins creating delicious food.
After half an hour of busy work in the kitchen, Lin Feng opens the kitchen door and calls Dong Jie and the others to help serve the dishes. He then takes a seat at the dining table like a gracious host.
Lin Feng's intention is clear: after working so hard for so long, he shouldn't have to lift a finger for serving rice or soup.
Well, considering that Lin Feng's dishes taste quite good, He Ting decides to serve this esteemed guest.
As for Dong Jie, he has become accustomed to serving Lin Feng and naturally sets up the dining table.
