Chapter 30: Lin Dong’s Differential Treatment

After pulling through a day, Lin Feng, who had no idea that he was being kept in mind, walked out of school.

“I’m just going to school like usual, but where did things start to go wrong? This school is so lively that it’s getting a little too much.”

Confessions from rich young ladies, two at that.

He even competed with one of them and revealed his unusual strength. He used his capabilities to earn everyone’s recognition and true respect.

Those scenes felt like the plot of a television drama in this world.

“I really hope that tomorrow will be more normal. Otherwise, I think I’ll have to find a mountain to cultivate for a few years.”

Lin Feng wasn’t against bustle and excitement, but he didn’t like it to continue.

Getting on his way home, Lin Feng’s figure became smaller and smaller.

A few sneaky figures appeared from the shadows, their gazes landing in the direction where Lin Feng disappeared.

“Young Master Gao, are we really not going to chase after him?”

One of the sissies looked at Gao Yalin with a puzzled expression.

“Perhaps the fellow would be scared when he sees how many of us there are.”

He really couldn’t understand why he chose not to do anything. If they were to follow him, they might just discover Lin Feng’s secret.

However, this question was quickly answered.

“Idiot. If he has really practiced ancient martial arts, no matter how many people we have, we’ll be no match.”

Gao Yalin glared at this sidekick, his eyes fixed in the direction where Lin Feng disappeared.

If it is possible, I wish to follow him as well. As the big brother, would I not think of what my underlings had thought of?

However…

Looking at the underlings surrounding him, Gao Yalin added,

“Furthermore, although I’ve never practiced ancient martial arts, I know that anyone who has cultivated it has very sharp senses.

“If we act rashly without any preparation, it will be no different from courting death.”

Upon hearing what Gao Yalin said, the people around immediately looked like they understood.

So that was the reason. They all understood now.

Then, they began to rejoice. They were glad that they had listened to Gao Yalin just now and didn’t recklessly follow Lin Feng.

“I understand.”

When Gao Yalin saw that his underlings had settled down, he turned to look in the direction where Lin Feng had left again. His tone was dark and filled with jealousy.

“Let this rascal be for a few more days. I’ll go back and talk to my family about him.”

Hearing Gao Yalin’s words, the eyes of the surrounding underlings lit up.

All of their faces were brimming with excitement and worship.

Sensing the admiring gazes of the people around him, Gao Yalin couldn’t help but smile.

This was the reason why he got together with these lowly people.

Gao Yalin’s vanity was greatly satisfied by these people.

He enjoyed the feeling of being admired.

“Then we’ll wait for your good news, Young Master Gao.”

“If the Gao family is willing to make a move, no matter how powerful Lin Feng is, he’ll be like a fish on the chopping board, at our mercy.”

When he heard this, Gao Yalin frowned. He stared expressionlessly at the person who spoke.

That person grew apprehensive with Gao Yalin’s stare. He immediately understood, and then hurriedly corrected himself.

“No, no, no. He’s at Young Master Gao’s mercy.”

Only then did Gao Yalin’s expression soften, and then he said with a smile,

“Haha, let’s wait and see!”

…

Lin Xue entered the house, looking exhausted.

“I’m back!”

Lin Dong walked out of the kitchen. When he saw that it was his daughter, he returned and continued cooking.

As he cooked, he greeted Lin Xue.

“You’re back. How was school?”

“I’m so tired. Dad, what are we having today?”

Hearing Lin Xue’s complaints, Lin Dong was infuriated.

Are you tired? Don’t think I don’t know what you do in school.

Instead of studying hard, all you do is fool around with those bad companions.

“All you think about is eat and eat the moment you get home. Going to school tired you out?”

Lin Dong was a little angry at Lin Xue for failing to live up to expectations, but he did not speak too harshly.

“There’s still some time before dinner. Go do your homework first.”

Just as Lin Xue was about to respond, the click of the door sounded again.

Then, a male voice came from the doorway.

“I’m back.”

“Xiao Feng, you’re back. How are you? Was school tiring?”

Lin Dong’s actions and the way he spoke were completely different from before.

He suddenly became very eager, his face filled with concern for Lin Feng.

Sensing Lin Dong’s enthusiasm, Lin Feng felt a little uncomfortable. He replied stiffly,

“It was fine.”

Lin Dong didn’t get angry. Instead, he walked over to Lin Feng with a look of concern. At the same time, he handed the teacup in his hand to Lin Feng.

“This child, you must be exhausted. I made you your favorite honey pomelo tea and these are pastries I specially got for you. Come and try them.”
