The Supreme Martial Expert of the Female CEO

The situation now rendered Bai Feifei unable to decide whether to cry or laugh, as it seemed that all of this was her mom's doing!

She clapped her hands and said, "All of Feifei's elders, please quiet down for a moment, I have something to say to everyone!"

The women quieted down, each of their gazes shifting to Bai Feifei.

"First of all, I, Bai Feifei, am very grateful for your concern!" Bai Feifei said with a smile, "But I'm sorry to disappoint you, what my mom said about Ling Feng and me isn't true. We are not in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship!"

The women were shocked!

"Sister, what exactly is going on!?"

"Yeah, Feifei, you've even confused your auntie!"

...

Ling Feng stood up and came to Bai Feifei's side, whispering, "That's enough Feifei, we don't need to explain so much!"

Bai Feifei shook her head, "No, Ling Feng, I must make this clear! I, Bai Feifei, am not the kind of girl who imposes herself on others! And, I also have something I want to use this opportunity to tell you!"

"This is Ling Feng, and he is the first boy I've ever liked in all of my twenty-four years!" Bai Feifei spoke easily: "All my life, I've been stronger than boys my own age, so there has never been a boy I could admire! Not until I met Ling Feng did I realize what it feels like to want to rely on someone!"

"I don't know if this is love, but I do know that I like Ling Feng! I want to see him, to be by his side, to watch him handle things with confidence! It's just unfortunate that for Ling Feng, his feelings towards me are just that of a normal friend! I am very disappointed, but I also know that matters of the heart can't be forced!"

"I am grateful to my mom because she knows what's in my heart, so she tried her best to bring everyone here hoping to create a situation where Ling Feng would state his feelings, but that's not right! It's unfair to both me and Ling Feng!" Bai Feifei continued, "But it's good, using this opportunity, I can speak my heart, which makes me feel much lighter!"

"However, Ling Feng, I, Bai Feifei, am not someone who gives up easily!" Bai Feifei turned towards Ling Feng and said earnestly, "Right now you don't have feelings for me, but that doesn't mean you won't in the future! I like you, and I will try my hardest to make you like me too! One day, I will bring you, with head held high, to introduce you to all my relatives and friends!"

Ling Feng looked at the earnest Bai Feifei, his lips moved slightly, then he sighed, "Feifei, why put yourself through this?"

"Liking you is my business; it has nothing to do with you!" Bai Feifei reached out her hand, smiling as she said, "Ling Feng, my name is Bai Feifei and I like you. Would you give me a chance to like you?"

Looking at the girl in front of him, tears in the corners of her eyes, Ling Feng deeply sighed, never having expected Bai Feifei to have such courage to bare her heart in front of all the relatives!

For a girl, this was incredibly hard to do!

Ling Feng reached out his hand, took Bai Feifei's hand, and then gently, but firmly, pulled her into his arms, whispering in her ear, "Silly girl, why are you so foolish?"

Bai Feifei nestled in Ling Feng's arms, tears streaming down her cheeks. "Foolish, isn't it? I just didn't want to make it difficult for you! Ling Feng, I really like you so much. All I ask is that you don't push me away, okay? When I lose all hope, I'll disappear from your side...

okay?"

"Silly girl!"

"Let's go. This place isn't right for you now," Bai Feifei wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and said, pulling Ling Feng, "I'll walk you out!"

Under the gaze of the women present, Bai Feifei led Ling Feng out the door.

"Tsk tsk, elder sister, I really didn't expect you to have orchestrated such drama!" Feifei's aunt spoke discontentedly, "Do we need to do this among sisters? Couldn't you have just told it straight?"

The great aunt said, "Let it be, this matter can't be blamed on Mu Xiao. I can understand Mu Xiao's feelings, but Mu Xiao, you've miscalculated. You wanted to create a fait accompli for the two of them, but that boy is not someone to be manipulated easily.

If it had really gone according to your script, even if Ling Feng didn't say anything at the moment, he might have ended any connection with Feifei forever!"

"It's not that terrible!" Mu Xiao whispered, "Wasn't I doing this for Feifei? You don't know, this girl, how heartbroken she was crying for that foolish young man, Ling Feng! As her mother, this is all I could do for her!"

This morning, Mu Xiao had seen Bai Feifei leaning against the wall crying her heart out, and as a mother, how could her heart not ache? Although she knew that her actions might cause Ling Feng to dislike her, if it meant her daughter could perhaps find happiness, then what's wrong with being the villain?

"But I really admired Feifei's confession just now!" Feifei's younger aunt said, "I never expected Feifei to be able to speak such deeply touching words! Did you see? That young man had slightly teary eyes at the end. I think there might be some hope for this!"

"What do you mean 'some hope'? Our family's Feifei is so outstanding, what's there not to be satisfied with!" Feifei's aunt spoke discontentedly, "Feifei is just a silly girl. If that young man ever lets her down, I won't forgive him!"

"Ah, who isn't foolish in love?" the great aunt softly said, "Feifei is able to find her own feelings, to fall in love recklessly, to let her youth run wild once. No matter the result, I believe Feifei will never feel regret!"

...

The two walked on the road while the night had enveloped Yanjing, this ancient city. The stars sprinkled in the sky gave a serene feeling.

"Ling Feng, about today, I'm sorry!" they walked for a while, and Bai Feifei spoke softly, "Don't be mad at my mom, okay? She did it all for my sake!"

Ling Feng touched his nose and said with a bitter smile, "Auntie is an emotional person, how could I blame her? She doesn't blame me for her daughter's sadness, and I'm already grateful!"

Bai Feifei giggled, "Ling Feng, what I said just now, it all came from my heart! I really like you. I don't expect you to reciprocate my feelings, I just hope you won't resist me, won't push me away, okay?"

"Feifei, you are a very good, very rare girl!" Ling Feng whispered, "Is all this really worth it?"

"Only the foot knows whether the shoe fits or not!" Bai Feifei said, "When I feel it's not worth it, I will quietly walk away! But until then, I will love you with all my emotions!"

"I want you to know I like you, I like depending on you! But I won't trouble you, if we have to define our relationship, it would probably be more than friends, yet less than lovers!"
