In the evening, just as Lin Feng was about to return to the dormitory to hang out with his friends, he suddenly received a call from Liu Jie.
"Hello..." Lin Feng smiled when he saw Liu Jie's number on his mobile phone. He pressed the answer button and said.
"Brother Lin Feng, it's Liu Jie." Since his father wanted to meet Lin Feng, Liu Jie could only speak in a friendly manner. Moreover, Liu Jie knew that Lin Feng's strength had surpassed his own significantly. Liu Jie had always respected those stronger than himself, and Lin Feng was clearly among those he respected.
"Oh, it's Liu Jie. What's up?" Lin Feng understood why Liu Jie was lowering his tone, but he pretended not to know the purpose of Liu Jie's call and asked.
This was also an art of conversation; one must take the initiative and not fall into a passive role. Furthermore, Lin Feng knew that it was Liu Jie who wanted to invite him, not the other way around, so he always maintained the upper hand.
"Hehe... Brother Lin Feng, I know I was wrong last time. I just thought I should find a time to invite you to my house and apologize in person. I hope you can give me a chance to express my regret face-to-face," Liu Jie said, doing everything he could to lower his stance in order to invite Lin Feng over.
Lin Feng knew that Liu Jie would lower his stance, but he didn't expect him to be so humble and accommodating.
At the same time, Lin Feng couldn't help but wonder if Liu Jie inviting him over was some kind of trap.
Otherwise, he couldn't figure out why Liu Jie would lower himself so much.
"Hehe... There's no need for a face-to-face apology. You are from a big family; I don't consider myself worthy of associating with you. We have no real conflict—at most, we are just strangers," Lin Feng thought this and couldn't help but probe further. He wanted to find answers to his doubts from Liu Jie's response.
Lin Feng wasn't foolish; he certainly wouldn't ask directly. Some things lose their meaning once they are laid bare, and even if Liu Jie were willing to speak, Lin Feng didn't believe he would tell him the truth.
"It seems Brother Lin Feng still can't let go. I'll be honest with you: my father wants to meet you, and it will be beneficial for you because we have a common enemy—Song Gang," Liu Jie revealed part of the truth as he found himself at a loss against Lin Feng.
However, now that it had come to this point, Lin Feng naturally understood that Liu Jie's main purpose in inviting him over was clear.
"Alright then, let me know the time and place. I don't have a car; you'll have to tell me how to take public transport there," Lin Feng agreed. Initially, he had stirred up trouble between the Song Family and the Liu Family in front of both Liu Jie and Song Ran to make Liu Jie stand against the Song Family. Now that Liu Jie had indicated this on behalf of the Liu Family, Lin Feng felt there was no need to stubbornly refuse meeting with the head of the Liu Family. Some discussions were not only what the Liu Family wanted; he also had things he wanted to discuss with them.
"Ha ha... Brother Lin Feng loves to joke. I'll have someone deliver a new car to you this afternoon; just have Driver bring you over," Liu Jie said cheerfully after hearing Lin Feng's agreement, as if giving Lin Feng a car was nothing significant in his eyes.
"Is that really okay?" Lin Feng noticed that Liu Jie was the kind of person who didn't sweat the small stuff, but he still offered a polite response.
"No need to be polite; it's just a means of transportation. I'll take care of the paperwork for you, so feel free to drive it. Ha ha... I almost forgot, your driving skills are quite impressive," Liu Jie said. Although the idea of giving Lin Feng a car was a spur-of-the-moment decision after hearing that Lin Feng didn't have one, once he offered it, there was no taking it back. At this point, he wouldn't allow Lin Feng to refuse.
Since Liu Jie had said so, Lin Feng, who had never intended to return the car anyway, accepted Liu Jie's gift without hesitation. What do they say? Something like "a fool not taking advantage of a bargain."
Lin Feng admitted that sometimes he was just an ordinary guy, not particularly noble.
Moreover, if he didn't accept the car from Liu Jie, he would still need to discuss matters with him and his father. Given that, what reason did he have not to accept the car?
"Alright then, let's leave it at that." After accepting the car, Lin Feng still felt the need to maintain some decorum. After saying that, he hung up the phone without any sense of being indebted.
Hearing the busy tone from his phone, Liu Jie couldn't help but smile wryly. In his entire life, even his father had never hung up on him like that. Yet today, after offering a car to Lin Feng, not only did Lin Feng not say "thank you," but he also hung up before Liu Jie could finish speaking.
Although Lin Feng had hung up on Liu Jie, he knew that Liu Jie would still deliver what he promised; he understood Liu Jie could differentiate between important matters and trivial ones.
With that in mind, Lin Feng decided not to return to the dormitory and instead wandered around School while waiting for the car from Liu Jie.
"Hey... Lin Feng, is that really you?" Just as Lin Feng was about to stroll around School, he suddenly heard someone calling him from behind. Turning around, he realized it was Su Xue.
In fact, it wasn't just Su Xue; Ouyang Qian was also there. Lin Feng couldn't understand why these two always seemed to be together.
"Ha ha... Two beautiful ladies out for a walk?" With nothing else to do and having encountered two lovely ladies, Lin Feng stopped to chat with them.
"Yes! Lin Feng, where have you been these past few days? Also, you've missed several classes with Ouyang Teacher," Su Xue said playfully upon seeing Lin Feng.
But one thing she said was indeed true; Lin Feng had disappeared without a trace for several days, and there hadn't even been a phone call. Ouyang Qian was genuinely worried about Lin Feng.
"Teacher Ouyang, I'm really sorry. I just had to go on a business trip unexpectedly. It was urgent, and I didn't have time to ask for leave. I truly apologize; I'll submit my leave request now." Lin Feng suddenly remembered that he had vanished for so many days without even calling his homeroom teacher, Ouyang Qian, which was quite inconsiderate. He hurriedly apologized.
Thinking about this, Lin Feng realized that ever since he was reborn, he had almost forgotten that he was a student. He even forgot to ask for leave from school when he wasn't attending.
"Submit a leave request? Then tell me, from which day did you start your leave? What have you been doing?" Ouyang Qian knew that Lin Feng wasn't the type to act recklessly. Since he hadn't been at school, there must have been some urgent matter. However, she still reproached Lin Feng for not calling her, making her worry unnecessarily for so many days.
"Uh..." Lin Feng tapped his head. When exactly had he stopped attending school? He genuinely couldn't remember and didn't know how to respond.
Should he directly tell Teacher Ouyang that he forgot when he stopped coming to school? Lin Feng wasn't that foolish; doing so would only invite more blame from Ouyang Qian. So, he decided to wait and see what Ouyang Qian would say next before figuring out how to respond.
Unexpectedly, Ouyang Qian seemed to sense Lin Feng's thoughts and remained silent, waiting for his explanation.
Lin Feng felt somewhat speechless, but he couldn't just make up a date to tell Ouyang Qian. If it didn't match up later, the consequences wouldn't be good.
"Teacher Ouyang, how about this: you can consider me on leave from whenever I stopped coming. How does that sound?" Lin Feng knew this suggestion was a bit excessive, but at this point, it was the only thing he could say. After all, he was somewhat familiar with Ouyang Qian and hoped to get away with it.
"Lin Feng, what do you think of your own suggestion?" Ouyang Qian was almost amused by Lin Feng's audacity; he could come up with such a ridiculous idea.
"Hehe... it's indeed not great," Even though Lin Feng had been reborn, he felt that his earlier suggestion was lacking. For a moment, all he could do was laugh awkwardly.
"Alright, Teacher Ouyang, don't tease him anymore. He's in a tough spot. Besides, Lin Feng's academic performance is quite good; just let him off this time. University is supposed to be an open environment," Su Xue chimed in while watching Lin Feng's embarrassment and came to his defense. She had a favorable impression of him.
"Hehe... Su Xue understands the situation." Seeing Su Xue speak up for him, Lin Feng felt that things weren't too bad after all.
"What? Do you think I don't understand the situation?" Lin Feng's comment was merely a momentary expression of feeling but unexpectedly carried another layer of meaning that Ouyang Qian picked up on as she retorted with a somewhat threatening expression.
"Ha ha... I'm not done speaking yet, am I? As the saying goes, 'Those who do not share the same path cannot make plans together.' Su Xue, someone who understands things so clearly, spends all day with Ouyang Teacher. It shows that Ouyang Teacher is also a sensible person." After living for over thirty years, Lin Feng naturally spoke more diplomatically at this moment.
"Alright, stop being cheeky. Let's call it a day this time. In the future, if anything comes up, you need to give me a call first. What if something really happens?" Ouyang Qian, seeing that Lin Feng had smoothed things over, no longer pressed him.
"That's great! Ouyang Teacher, about my leave request..." With the issue resolved, Lin Feng asked again. This guy was too lazy to even write a leave request; he found excuses to be the most annoying part.
"A leave request is just a formality, isn't it? Forget it. Su Xue and I are going out to eat. Have you eaten yet?" Ouyang Qian seemed to understand Lin Feng's intentions and said.
"That's wonderful." With Ouyang Qian's understanding, Lin Feng felt a surge of happiness. Just then, an Audi pulled up in front of him.
At this time, an Audi was still quite a luxury.
The Audi came to a stop in front of him, and the Driver got out, bowed to Lin Feng, and said, "Jie Shao asked me to invite Feng Shao. This is the car that Jie Shao sent for you. I hope Feng Shao is satisfied?"
Lin Feng did not expect Liu Jie to act so quickly. This Audi looked brand new, and he noticed that there was even a license plate on the front—one with an impressive number.
Before Lin Feng could respond, the Driver took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it to him, saying, "This contains various documents. The owner of this car is none other than you, Feng Shao. The paperwork has already been completed, and your driver's license has also been processed. Please accept it."
In such a short time, they had managed to get all this done? Lin Feng could now confirm that all these preparations were not hastily arranged just moments ago but had been planned in advance.
But so what if they were prepared? He really couldn't miss this trip to the Liu Family. At that moment, Lin Feng was ready to leave the School and attend Liu Jie's banquet.
