Chapter 239: Chapter 0239 Godmother

Upon hearing Huang Lan’s phone call, Chu Feng’s expression grew even darker.

If everything was as Huang Lan had said, it meant that the Elite Society might also be involved in his elder brother’s death.

Chu Feng returned to his room and said, "Big brother, there might be someone in the delegation connected to the Elite Society."

"Damn it! Such traitors should be shot on sight!" He Zhen exclaimed furiously upon hearing Chu Feng’s words.

He Zhen, who had come from a background of gunfire and bullets, hated nothing more than traitors and the Elite Society in his life.

Xie Mengying looked at He Zhen’s furious reaction, somewhat puzzled.

Lin Xue Mei looked kindly at Xie Mengying and said, "Teacher Xie, I think you and I have a special connection. I would like to consider you my goddaughter. What do you think?"

Lin Xue Mei’s words left both Chu Feng and He Zhen stunned.

However, they soon understood.

This matter definitely couldn’t be pursued openly; it required a comprehensive strategy. But if it were dealt with covertly, it wouldn’t address Xie Mengying’s immediate concerns.

Most importantly, if the issue wasn’t resolved, Chu Feng certainly wouldn’t be able to compete with peace of mind.

And to not affect Chu Feng’s competition, avoid startling the enemy, and yet resolve the problem, that was precisely what Lin Xue Mei was proposing now.

Although Lin Xue Mei was just a university professor, her husband was a founding hero known as the Imperial Master. Her son was the City Party Secretary and a standing committee member of Songjiang Province, the next governor.

So even though Lin Xue Mei held no official position, everyone was always polite to her.

If she told outsiders that Xie Mengying was her goddaughter, even the Jin Family wouldn’t dare have Xie Mengying marry an idiot and actually be the mistress of the second son.

The Jin Family did not have the courage to challenge He Zhen.

Although the Jin Family was a major clan and He Zhen had only one son, He Zhen had subordinates. To irritate the old man meant irritating them as well.

As long as the Jin Family didn’t leave Huaxia, regardless of their status as a renowned family or even a noble clan, what could they really do?

"Professor Lin, I..." Xie Mengying, also a perceptive person, understood from Lin Xue Mei’s words that if she agreed tonight, the Jin Family wouldn’t dare bother her again.

"Sister Mengying, what are you waiting for? Sister-in-Law doesn’t just take anyone as her goddaughter," Chu Feng urged.

Hesitantly, Xie Mengying also called out, "Godmother!"

Lin Xue Mei happily responded, "I just wish I had a daughter as beautiful as you."

Chu Feng smiled and said, "Sister-in-Law, if you had a daughter, she would definitely be as beautiful as you."

Lin Xue Mei laughed heartily, "Xiao Feng, you speak much more pleasingly than this old man."

Hearing Chu Feng’s words, Xie Mengying suddenly realized a problem.

That was, now that she called Lin Xue Mei ’Godmother’ and Chu Feng called her ’Sister-in-Law’, didn’t that make her a generation older than Chu Feng, meaning she should call Chu Feng ’Uncle’?

But at the same time, she was Chu Feng’s teacher, and by ancient tradition, she was still Chu Feng’s elder, and now was of the same generation as Lin Xue Mei and the others.

The relationships were truly complicated enough to give Xie Mengying a headache.

"Mengying, take this, I didn’t have much to give you for our first meeting," Lin Xue Mei said as she took off her bracelet and handed it to Xie Mengying.

"Godmother, I can’t accept this!" Xie Mengying hastily declined.

"Here, take this, it’s for your godmother. Your godmother has only this piece of jewelry to wear all these years," He Zhen said.

Hearing He Zhen’s words, Xie Mengying understood.

This was tantamount to giving her a token, clearly telling everyone. Xie Mengying wasn’t just making a casual remark, she was acknowledged by Lin Xue Mei. The bracelet was the best proof.

"Sister Mengying, you should take it," Chu Feng also said.

Pausing for a moment, Chu Feng said, "Sister-in-Law, I have some fine materials back at my place, one day I will bring you a piece, and then I will help you find someone to make another bracelet."

He Zhen asked, "Younger brother, what do you mean by this?"

Chu Feng chuckled, "Old brother, it shouldn’t go against any principles, right? As a younger brother giving a gift to Sister-in-Law, it shouldn’t involve any disciplinary violation. And it’s just a piece of rock after all."

After Chu Feng finished speaking, Lin Xue Mei also said, "Sister-in-Law, you really don’t have to."

Chu Feng said, "Sister-in-Law, you don’t need to be so formal with me, I heard Jianguo say that in a few days it will be your and big brother’s fiftieth wedding anniversary. I had already planned to give this gift, just giving it a bit earlier. If you don’t accept it, then you are looking down on me as your younger brother."

"Okay! It’s rare for you to be so thoughtful, I will accept this gift," Lin Xue Mei said happily.

"Old brother, I will first take Sister Mengying back home, don’t worry, in the day after tomorrow’s competition, I will make sure those exchange group members are utterly confused. Let them tremble every time they step on our turf," Chu Feng said.

He Zhen laughed heartily and said, "Good! On the day after tomorrow, I will bring Xuemei along to watch your competition."

Chu Feng and Xie Mengying left He Zhen’s house, and Xie Mengying still felt a bit surreal.

She could never have imagined that the difficulties which almost pushed her to a corner could be resolved so effortlessly now.

"Sister Mengying, where would you like to go? I’ll take you!" Chu Feng called back to Xie Mengying.

Looking at Chu Feng, Xie Mengying said somewhat awkwardly, "In front of Godmother, could you not call me Sister Mengying, please?"

Chu Feng was stunned momentarily, then laughed heartily and said, "Alright! From now on in front of Sister-in-Law and the others, I’ll call you ’Mengying niece’!"

Chu Feng deliberately emphasized the words ’niece,’ which angered Xie Mengying enough to glare and raise her hand to hit Chu Feng.

"If you dare take advantage of me, see if I don’t beat you to death," Xie Mengying chased after Chu Feng, trying to hit him.

Chu Feng laughed heartily, and after Xie Mengying had hit him a few times, he said, "From now on, I’ll just call you Mengying. I feel that’s more affectionate."

Xie Mengying nodded and said, "Okay!"

"Mengying, where do we go now?" Chu Feng asked.

Hearing Chu Feng calling her so affectionately, Xie Mengying’s heart fluttered, and she said, "I want to sit by the lake."

Chu Feng chuckled, "Do you want to sit by the lake, or do you want me to warm your feet? If it’s for warming your feet, we don’t need to go to the lake, any place will do."

Xie Mengying’s face blushed slightly, she gave Chu Feng a glare and said, "Are you courting death? I have something I need to ask you."

Chu Feng seriously said, "Mengying, I know what you want to ask. But I can’t tell you, it will only put you in danger. If this matter is resolved, I will tell you everything."

Xie Mengying said, "Was my father really killed by someone from the Jin Family?"

Chu Feng said, "If it was three years ago, I can almost be certain. And since you said your father was an engineer in the energy sector, I can be even more certain. As for more, I won’t say now, but I will tell you the answer later."

Xie Mengying nodded, and a trace of anger appeared in her eyes as she said, "The Jin Family really made my father suffer greatly, if possible, don’t let them off."

Chu Feng nodded firmly and said, "I will!"
