While out picking up trash, I was forcefully pushed around by a beautiful female CEO.

Lin Feng was immediately delighted.

Being rejected by a woman in public and then slapped in the face, it's no wonder Su Mingxuan resents Meng Qingyao.

However, Lin Feng quickly gleaned a crucial piece of information from Meng Qingyao's words: "It seems that, apart from you, the elders of your Meng family are all very supportive of this marriage?"

"How...how did you know?"

Meng Qingyao looked at Lin Feng in surprise.

"It's very simple. If your Meng family elders didn't approve of this marriage, there wouldn't have been an engagement banquet yesterday."

Lin Feng smiled and said.

Meng Qingyao's face immediately turned bitter, and at the same time, a hint of surprise appeared in her beautiful eyes as she looked at Lin Feng. This man in front of her was much smarter than she had imagined.

"Did I guess right?"

Seeing Meng Qingyao's reaction, Lin Feng knew he had touched a nerve.

"Um!"

Meng Qingyao nodded, her expression dimming considerably: "The Meng family's strength in Minghai City can only barely be considered third-tier. Although the Su family's overall strength isn't much stronger than the Meng family's, the Su family has powerful figures in Beijing behind them, and they will inevitably rise to new heights in the future! Not to mention the future, even this year, once Su Tianyang really takes the position of second-in-command in Minghai City, the entire Su family's status will rise to another level. Therefore, my grandfather and uncles all feel that this time, a marriage alliance with the Su family is a very good choice for the Su family."

"Isn't this great?"

Lin Feng looked Meng Qingyao up and down. The morning sunlight shone on Meng Qingyao's face, making her even more beautiful. It was no wonder that such a beauty would be coveted by others.

"Is it alright?"

Meng Qingyao's eyes suddenly reddened: "They all agreed, but no one asked for my opinion! What am I in their eyes? Just a bargaining chip for them to pursue their family's interests? Who cares about my feelings? They know perfectly well that Su Mingxuan is a complete beast, a scumbag! Yet they still push me into Su Mingxuan's hands! Since they don't care about me, why should I care about them?"

In the end, Meng Qingyao's body trembled slightly, whether from sadness or anger.

"That's true. If Su Mingxuan is capable of sending someone to do something like this to you, then he's definitely not a good person."

Thinking about what happened last night, Lin Feng wholeheartedly agreed.

"Not only that, but as far as I know, Su Mingxuan has persecuted countless girls using this method over the years. Some girls even committed suicide by jumping into the river because they couldn't bear the humiliation, but the Su family suppressed it all. Because of the mysterious backing behind the Su family, no one dared to do anything to them!"

Meng Qingyao gritted her teeth: "I would rather die than hand over my innocence to such a scumbag."

"I understand, so you slept with me, then got me to marry you, using me as a shield to reject the Su family's marriage proposal?"

Lin Feng had already roughly guessed Meng Qingyao's motives for doing these things.

"I've said it before, I'm not that kind of woman!"

Meng Qingyao's eyes reddened even more: "Su Mingxuan put something in the drinks at yesterday's engagement banquet. He was going to take me home after the banquet, but I felt something was wrong, so I ran away while I was in the bathroom..."

Hearing Meng Qingyao say this, Lin Feng also recalled the abnormal flush on Meng Qingyao's face when he first saw her last night.

Considering the woman's initiative last night, it's clear that Su Mingxuan put something in the drink that was sexually suggestive.

"Lin Feng!"

Meng Qingyao's expression suddenly turned cold, and her voice became more indifferent than before.

"Um?"

Lin Feng didn't know why the woman's tone had suddenly changed.

"After you register our marriage, the Su family will definitely try every means to retaliate against you. If you are afraid of being retaliated against by the Su family, you still have a chance to back out. As for last night..."

Meng Qingyao's eyes dimmed, her words devoid of any emotion: "You saved me. Consider last night's events as repayment for saving your life. If you want to back out, you can get off the car and leave now..."

"Then what are you going to do?"

Lin Feng looked at Meng Qingyao with a hint of mockery in his eyes.

"It's none of your business!"

Meng Qingyao thought Lin Feng was really going back on his word, and she was immediately disheartened: "I've said it before, I'd rather die than let that scumbag succeed..."

Before she could finish speaking, a hot hand suddenly brushed across her hair.

Meng Qingyao was startled and suddenly looked up, only to be met with Lin Feng's angular face and his deep, ocean-like eyes.

"I finally got a beautiful wife for free, why would I go back on my word?"

Lin Feng's face showed no emotion, and his words were as calm as still water.

But those plain words and those deep eyes seemed to possess some kind of magic, directly unsettling Meng Qingyao's mind and giving her a strange sense of security.

Lin Feng didn't overstep any boundaries. After ruffling Meng Qingyao's hair, he withdrew his hand and said, "Let's drive. If we don't go soon, the staff at the marriage registration office will be taking their lunch break."

"Huh? Oh... oh oh..."

Meng Qingyao was flustered and her cheeks were so red they looked like they could bleed, and her heart was pounding wildly.

She felt a little embarrassed and annoyed, blaming herself for being so shameful. How could she always lose her composure in front of this man?

Could it be because of the craziness last night?

The more Meng Qingyao thought about it, the more restless she became, her mind a jumbled mess.

To avoid letting Lin Feng notice her lapse in composure, Meng Qingyao, while driving, hastily changed the subject: "Lin Feng, are you... are you really not afraid of the Su family retaliating against you?"

"The Su family?"

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, a cryptic smile playing on his lips. He glanced sideways at the window, his murmur filled with chilling intent: "If they don't want to die, they can try taking revenge..."

Hearing these words, Meng Qingyao, who was driving beside her, was deeply moved, and a warmth she had never felt before welled up in her heart.

She didn't dislike Lin Feng, but similarly, she didn't have high hopes for him at first. Getting the marriage certificate was just a desperate measure, plus the fact that she had that kind of relationship with Lin Feng last night, that's all.

After all, most people in this world are afraid of difficulties and retreat, and are afraid of death. This is human nature, so even if Lin Feng really goes back on his word, she won't complain.

Now, Meng Qingyao felt a surge of joy. This guy who had inadvertently led her to confess her innocence wasn't the weak person she had feared...

However, Meng Qingyao's joy was quickly replaced by a deep sense of worry.

After last night's events, Meng Qingyao knew that Lin Feng was quite skilled. However, individual bravery is ultimately futile against a powerful force, like a mantis trying to stop a chariot—too insignificant...

Meng Qingyao bit her lip, but a resolute feeling rose in her heart. If something happened to Lin Feng, she would just die with him. Anyway, she had already planned to prove her point with her death. How bad could things get?

After thinking it through, Meng Qingyao stepped on the gas, and the Audi Q7 sped towards the marriage registration office.

Meng Qingyao, who was driving, was completely unaware of the cold killing intent flashing in Lin Feng's eyes as he looked out the window.

Looking out the window at the bustling city he had once fought and bled to protect, Lin Feng's mind was already filled with countless thoughts.

The intelligence about the JF-17's mission was leaked two years ago!

The Su family also suddenly began to rise to prominence two years ago!

And the source of the intelligence leak was Minghai City!

That mysterious big shot in Kyoto has inexplicably and suddenly supported the Su family, a powerful force, in Minghai City...

Coincidence?

It's best if it's a coincidence!

Otherwise, it wouldn't just be the Su family that died...
