Looking at the suddenly furious male student, Ling Feng glanced at Catherine again, his eyes filled with deep meaning.
It was clear that this admirer of Catherine's had not appeared by chance.
Catherine giggled foolishly and whispered in Ling Feng's ear, "This guy is the silly fool who sent me 9,999 roses. Look at him, then look at yourself. When have you ever bought me roses when we were together?"
Ling Feng was speechless, whispering into Catherine's ear, "I haven't bought you roses, but I have given you diamonds, aren't diamonds more valuable than roses?"
"It's not the same, okay?" Catherine said coquettishly, "Actually, I don't want those diamonds or roses. I don't expect you to do anything for me. All I want now is a gift. Could you be jealous for me just once?"
Ling Feng was surprised as he looked at Catherine; he hadn't expected that this was what she wanted!
However, recalling the days he dated Catherine in the Underworld where strength ruled, as the strongest of the Divine Gate's younger generation, no one dared to compete with him for Catherine! To the people of the Underworld, jealousy was an unnecessary emotion. If they liked something, they simply took it—couldn't take it? That meant you were not strong enough, better go back and improve your strength until you could take it back!
Thus, no one dared to covet Catherine, so Ling Feng had never felt jealousy over her.
When Catherine made such a request, Ling Feng truly realized that despite being in the Underworld, Catherine was still a girl! Looking at Catherine with hopeful eyes, Ling Feng felt a surge of guilt.
By now, the male student was already somewhat frantic. His heart's goddess was looking affectionately at a poor loser, how could he remain calm?
Ling Feng stretched out his hand and tightly held Catherine's waist, pressing her body firmly against his, and said disdainfully, "I don't care who you are, Catherine is my woman now. You'd better not bother her, otherwise, I will get very angry, and I even fear myself when I'm angry!"
The student was not dismissed by Ling Feng's few words but gritted his teeth, wanting to rush forward. However, seeing that Ling Feng was half a head taller than him again made him hesitant.
"Beat it!" Ling Feng waved his hand arrogantly, "If you dare to bother my woman again, watch out for my fist because it doesn't see!"
The male student gritted his teeth and glared at Ling Feng, "Fine, fine, you just wait, I'll get you if it's the last thing I do. My name isn't Zhou Lin if I don't!"
Saying that, Zhou Lin stepped back a couple of steps and then turned and ran.
Ling Feng said with amusement, "That's it? He ran? Your admirer is a bit too cowardly, isn't he?"
"Yeah, my admirers, none of them are as tough as your new love!" Catherine stood on tiptoes and kissed Ling Feng on the corner of his mouth, "Although this was a little setup of mine, I am satisfied! At least I heard you admit again that I am your woman! Alright, I won't bother you anymore, goodbye!"
With that, Catherine waved her hand and walked toward the distance.
Watching Catherine's retreating figure, a wave of unease flashed through Ling Feng's heart!
Catherine's visit was very sudden and inexplicable, that feeling... it was as if she was saying her final goodbye!
"What am I thinking about!" Ling Feng chuckled bitterly and shook his head, but despite his efforts to convince himself, the unease in his heart grew stronger!
He took out his phone and dialed a number, "Aiven, are you at Divine Gate right now?"
On the other side of the call, Aiven responded excitedly, "Big brother, you finally called us! I'm at Divine Gate right now. Do you have any orders?"
Ling Feng hesitated for a moment and said, "The task I assigned to you before, what is the situation now?"
"Are you talking about that woman's genetic issue?" Aiven's voice steadied as he spoke, "Currently, the research team is analyzing and testing the genes in her hair. However, so far, they haven't discovered any serious problems. But Old K said that if it really is a hereditary disease, the factors that trigger it might be genes we haven't yet studied. If that's the case, it could be troublesome!"
Ling Feng sighed, "I understand. Now I can only rely on you guys, thanks for your hard work."
"What are you saying, big brother!" Aiven's voice turned serious, "You gave us a new life; you made it possible for us to live like humans instead of being lab rats! Big brother, I don't want you to be polite to us, as that would be our greatest shame!"
Ling Feng was moved. Actually, the main reason he had helped them back then was revenge. Alone, he wasn't able to overthrow Divine Gate or to kill the Mad Doctor!
Yet, now their admiration towards him made Ling Feng feel somewhat guilty.
"By the way, do you know about Catherine coming to Hua Xia Yanjing?" Ling Feng asked.
Aiven replied in surprise, "Big brother, you met big sister?"
"I did," Ling Feng said with a bitter smile, "I was quite surprised, why would she come to Hua Xia? Could it be that she has some important mission?"
"Well..." Aiven's voice hesitated, "I'm not very sure. Since you left, big sister hasn't shared much with us. Perhaps, she might have wanted to see you, that's why she went to find you?"
"Aiven, do you take me for a fool?" Ling Feng said with a cold laugh, "The head of Divine Gate coming alone to Hua Xia, do you really think the people of Dragon Group are for show? What are you really up to?"
Aiven felt a pang in his heart. He knew that once Ling Feng developed any suspicions, he would be the one to suffer the most!
"Well... big brother... hey, hey... ah, the signal is bad... I'll hang up now, I'll call you back later!" Saying this, Aiven actually hung up on Ling Feng.
Ling Feng's heart sank. If it wasn't something important, Aiven would never hang up on him. What, exactly, was going on at Divine Gate now?
Having only been away for a mere three months, Ling Feng suddenly realized he was completely in the dark about the current situation at Divine Gate!
On the other side of the earth, Aiven, with a palpable sense of relief, patted his chest, "Big brother is truly formidable, to have already sensed something was amiss!"
"Aiven, you actually hung up on the boss. I think you're tired of living," a young blond man said coldly, "Isn't that just making it obvious? Aren't you afraid the boss will come back and beat you up?"
"If the boss comes back because of this, I'd be happy to get beaten every day!" Aiven said with a laugh, "And, if the boss comes back, it would also be good for big sister, at least she wouldn't have to..."
