“He’s cooking in the kitchen,” Zhang Yuxi said, a bit nervously.

Hearing this, the two women hurriedly ran to the kitchen to take a look.

By that time, Lin Feng had already activated the Change Appearance Skill, setting his targets to Tang Xiufang and Han Wen.

“Teacher Tang, Teacher Han, what’s up?” Lin Feng raised his head and asked as if nothing was wrong.

“No… nothing,” Han Wen replied. “We were just passing by and wanted to come up and see you.”

Seeing Lin Feng like this completely dispelled her doubts.

“Oh, have you eaten yet? Why don’t you stay for dinner!” Lin Feng invited warmly.

“Oh, we wouldn’t want to impose…” The source of thɪs content is novel⁂fire.net

Although she said this, Han Wen still sat down at the dining table.

Seeing this, Zhang Yuxi breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. “Then I’ll go cook some more rice.”

“Alright… but we really didn’t come here just to freeload, you know!” Han Wen quickly explained.

Zhang Yuxi just smiled without a word and walked straight into the kitchen.

Half an hour later, five dishes and a soup were ready. The table was laden with food, and its aroma instantly permeated the entire house.

Smelling the fragrant dishes, Han Wen felt her appetite surge, and her stomach grumbled.

Seeing Han Wen practically drooling, Zhang Yuxi suggested, “Let’s eat!”

Han Wen immediately picked up her chopsticks and snagged a piece of the Sichuan-style boiled beef.

“Mmm! This is delicious!”

After taking a bite, Tang Xiufang chimed in with her own praise. “Brother-in-law’s cooking is truly unmatched in Yangcheng!”

“This beef is so tender… It’s even better than the Douhua Beef I had back in the Sichuan-Chongqing region!”

Zhang Yuxi was already used to Lin Feng’s culinary skills. While she was still amazed every time she ate his cooking, she didn’t have the same exaggerated reactions as Han Wen and Tang Xiufang.

I guess I’m taking all this good fortune for granted.

It was then that Han Wen suddenly spoke up. “Teacher Zhang, I’m really so envious of you! Where on earth did you find such a husband? I want to find one too!”

Upon hearing this, a helpless expression appeared on Zhang Yuxi’s face.

She didn’t want to tell them she and Lin Feng had actually met in a bar.

Just then, Tang Xiufang changed the subject. “Teacher Zhang, that student Lin Feng from your class came to take the exam today. He even turned in his paper early, and from what I saw, he did very well!”

Hearing Tang Xiufang mention Lin Feng, Han Wen chimed in, “Yeah, when I was proctoring, he tried to turn his paper in early too, but I scared him into staying. Hee hee.”

Lin Feng’s expression was a bit speechless.

Who would have thought that Han Wen, so domineering on the lecture platform, could be so quirky and playful in private?

Han Wen continued, “Teacher Zhang, it’s a good thing you weren’t at school today, or you would’ve been shocked! Lin Feng has become so handsome, I almost didn’t recognize him!”

As Han Wen and Tang Xiufang chattered on about Lin Feng’s transformation, Zhang Yuxi listened and couldn’t help but glance at the Lin Feng in front of her, feeling a bit puzzled.

Are Teacher Tang and Teacher Han really that face-blind? Or is Lin Feng’s disguise just that good? Good enough to fool both of them?

Just then, the sound of crying came from the baby’s room.

“I’ll go check on the baby.” Lin Feng quickly stood up and left the tricky situation.

After Lin Feng left, Tang Xiufang asked with concern, “Teacher Zhang, you took the day off today. Did something happen? If there’s anything you need, just let us know. We’ll help with whatever we can!”

Han Wen quickly added, “That’s right, Teacher Zhang! Please don’t hesitate to ask!”

Zhang Yuxi shook her head and thanked them for their kindness.

The three of them continued to chat for a while before Tang Xiufang and Han Wen left.

…

「The next day.」

Zhang Yuxi was at home with the baby, while Lin Feng went to school for his exam as usual. As soon as he received the test paper, he started working on it swiftly. Twenty minutes later, Lin Feng gave his work a quick review, saw no problems, and turned in his paper early.

The proctor this time was neither Tang Xiufang nor Han Wen. She didn’t make things difficult for Lin Feng, but she was quite surprised at his speed.

After submitting his paper, Lin Feng walked out of the school gates and headed straight for the Rongtai Haoting residential complex. Having been away from the baby for only a short while, he was surprised to find himself already missing them.

But just as Lin Feng was about to step out of the school gate, he suddenly saw a familiar figure standing there. A middle-aged man, carrying a large bag of fruit, was standing at the entrance, looking around.

“Dad?”

Hearing Lin Feng’s voice, the middle-aged man turned his head sharply. For a moment, he looked completely astonished.

“You are…?” Lin Dashan asked, puzzled.

“Dad, it’s me, Lin Feng!”

Lin Dashan was startled for a moment, then it dawned on him and he hurried over. “Wow, I haven’t seen you in half a year! How did you get so handsome?”

“Hey, Dad, I’m still growing. It’s only natural that I’d get more handsome!” Lin Feng chuckled, changing the subject. “Dad, why didn’t you let me know you were coming?”

Lin Dashan glared at Lin Feng and said sternly, “You have the nerve to say that! After such a huge thing happened, I tried to give you money and you wouldn’t take it. Of course I had to come and check on you!”

“By the way, why didn’t Mom come?”

“Your mom was going to, but your brother got into some trouble at school, so she couldn’t get away.”

“Oh…” Lin Feng nodded, took the fruit from Lin Dashan’s hand, and said, “Let’s head home, then!”

Lin Dashan nodded and followed behind Lin Feng. Although Lin Feng wasn’t his biological son, he had raised him from a young age. Lin Dashan and Lin Feng’s biological parents had been good friends for many years, but they passed away in a car accident when Lin Feng was in elementary school. Back then, no one else was willing to adopt the boy, so Lin Dashan had stepped forward and brought Lin Feng home to raise as his own.

Lin Dashan suddenly asked, “By the way, son, you still haven’t told me, what does the girl do? How old is she? Where is she from?”

“She’s a teacher at our school, six years older than me. I’m not too sure where she’s from…”

Since his father was already here, Lin Feng felt there was no need to hide anything.

However, when Lin Dashan heard that the woman was Lin Feng’s teacher, his eyes widened like saucers.

“She’s… a teacher at your school?”

“Mm-hmm,” Lin Feng nodded.

Hearing this, Lin Dashan sighed and said nothing more.

Soon, the two of them arrived at Rongtai Haoting. Looking at the complex’s pleasant surroundings, Lin Dashan was quite pleased.

“The rent here must be pretty expensive, right?”

“Dad, actually… this house is mine!”

Lin Dashan stared in disbelief. “Your house? Where did you get so much money?”

“You know my birth father had that distant relative who made a lot of money abroad, right? He really liked me when I was a kid. He passed away not long ago and left me a house and a car.”

Lin Dashan was skeptical, but he had heard of that distant relative before. He recalled hearing that the man was indeed overseas and had passed away recently. Bearing this in mind, he didn’t dwell on it.

Seeing that his son now had a house and a car, he was simply happy for him.
