Bai Feifei, the voice turned out to be Bai Feifei's! How could this be, why was Bai Feifei here?
Ling Feng turned around in surprise, finding it somewhat unbelievable as he looked at the incoming Bai Feifei.
Perhaps due to her cultivation, Bai Feifei's aura had improved since before, radiating a spiritual essence!
"Master..." Bai Feifei also saw Ling Feng, and for a moment, she was stunned. She too was a bit flustered, why was Ling Feng here?
"Sister Feifei!" The only one who was both surprised and delighted was Liu Tingyu as she stepped forward and took Bai Feifei's hand, saying, "So you're the disciple my dad took on. The world is really too small, isn't it? I'm so happy to see you again!"
Ling Feng glanced at the Dragon King and noticed that he was looking at him with a meaningful gaze. In that instant, Ling Feng understood everything!
Bai Feifei had been recruited by the Dragon Group because she had subdued the Seven-step Silver Light Snake, but even so, she didn't qualify to be the Dragon King's disciple! The only reason could be that the Dragon King knew about the relationship between himself and Bai Feifei!
Thinking about this, a flash of anger crossed Ling Feng's face, but he soon forced a bitter smile.
What could he do? The Dragon King taking Bai Feifei as a disciple was an open strategy, and since he was Liu Tingyu's boyfriend, in the eyes of the Dragon King, he naturally had to keep his distance from other girls.
Objectively speaking, becoming the Dragon King's disciple was a huge stroke of luck for Bai Feifei.
But... was it really just that simple? Ling Feng didn't know what the head of the Dragon Group, the Dragon King, might be planning.
"Feifei, you and Ting Yu must know each other!" Xia Wan'er said with a smile, "That's wonderful. Come, take a seat, the dishes will be served soon!"
Bai Feifei's mind was in a fog. Liu Tingyu was actually the daughter of the Dragon King; this was explosive news. In that case, wouldn't Ling Feng be the Dragon King's son-in-law?
"If Ling Feng is the son-in-law of the Dragon King, then where do I stand..." Bai Feifei's heart was in turmoil. Although her foremost priority was vengeance, deep down she still hoped to find happiness after her revenge, continuing her pursuit of Ling Feng!
But now... how could she possibly destroy her mentor's daughter's happiness? Confusion and pain flickered through Bai Feifei's eyes.
"Ling Feng, you mentioned earlier that you had something to give to Ting Yu," the Dragon King spoke up calmly, "We are all curious, show it to us, would you?"
Ling Feng bit his lip; at this point, he didn't have a way out anymore. He took out an old-fashioned little box from his bosom.
Everyone looked curiously at the small box. Could it also contain a necklace?
After opening the box, inside lay a pair of worn rings with numerous scratches and abrasions. More importantly, there was nothing special about the pair of silver rings; if sold, they would at most be worth several hundred yuan.
"Ling Feng, is there a secret hidden in these rings?" Xia Wan'er asked with a smile, clearly giving Ling Feng a chance to explain.
Ling Feng looked at the rings with deep emotion. The always composed Ling Feng's breath was slightly ragged.
"These rings are very important to me, indeed very special," Ling Feng's voice carried a hint of a rasp, "because they are my parents' wedding rings, the rings they handed to me before they died!"
The Dragon King and Xia Wan'er exchanged glances, their eyes revealing a flicker of surprise. Although they knew Ling Feng's father was Ling Guoliang, the famous professor of biology, they were still not very clear about what had happened to Ling Feng's family.
"Ling Feng..." Liu Tingyu looked at Ling Feng with some concern and said, "We shouldn't..."
Ling Feng interrupted Liu Tingyu's words and spoke earnestly, "Ting Yu, these rings were my parents' wedding bands when they got married. The moment they died before me, they handed these rings to me, instructing me to place them on the finger of the girl I loved the most! These wedding rings are their gift to my future wife."
Ling Feng's eyes reddened slightly, "In my heart, these rings are the most special. Not even the Heart of the Ocean can compare! When I knew I was going to meet your parents, I was determined to put this ring on your finger in front of them!"
Having said that, Ling Feng turned his head towards Dragon King and Xia Wan'er, and said sincerely, "Uncle Liu, Aunt Wan, today you have given your approval of me and formally entrusted Ting Yu to me. And now, I swear with my parents' wedding rings, I, Ling Feng, am deeply in love with Liu Tingyu, until the end of my life. Throughout this period, I will use everything I have to protect her, to keep her from sadness, and to prevent any harm from coming to her!"
Turning towards Liu Tingyu, Ling Feng continued, "Ting Yu, these rings are old, but they carry my sincerest heart. Are you willing to accept them and become the daughter-in-law of the Ling Family?"
By then, Liu Tingyu was already crying uncontrollably.
Indeed, the Heart of the Ocean is invaluable, but what does it count for in front of these rings?
Liu Tingyu knew very well what place his parents held in Ling Feng's heart. Now that he had brought out his parents' wedding rings, it was the most precious and most longed-for gift for Liu Tingyu!
For lovers, what could be more precious than their true hearts?
"This child Ling Feng has put his heart into it!" Xia Wan'er said softly on the side, her face also showing a moved expression.
She is a strong woman, but she is also a woman, a mother! Seeing another woman so happy at this moment, her heart was also incredibly stirred.
"Ling Feng, I love you!" Liu Tingyu held Ling Feng's hand and said, "I'm so eager to wear this sacred ring right now, but..."
At that moment, the sweet and romantic atmosphere suddenly grew cold, and both Dragon King and Xia Wan'er showed shocked expressions on their faces.
"But I cannot accept it now!" Liu Tingyu glanced at the ring, a look of longing flashing in her eyes, yet she refused, "Ling Feng, you should know my condition. I really want to be your wife, to be your only one, but... I cannot be so selfish. I can't do that!"
Ling Feng understood that Liu Tingyu was still worried about her future. She wanted to be with Ling Feng forever, but with her life ebbing away, could she really do that?
Ling Feng took Liu Tingyu's hand and slowly slid the lady's ring onto her ring finger.
Then he handed the gentleman's ring to Liu Tingyu, "In this world, only you are worthy of wearing this ring! I don't care about the length of life, but I firmly believe that if you don't wear this ring, I will regret it for the rest of my life, even in death I would face my parents' reproach!"
"Can I really do that?" Liu Tingyu looked at Ling Feng.
Ling Feng nodded, "Besides you, no one else is worthy!"
Liu Tingyu looked at the ring on her finger, her tears flowing uncontrollably.
"Now it's your turn to put the ring on me!" Ling Feng said with a smile.
Liu Tingyu took the gentleman's ring, then put it back in the box, and pocketed it, "Hmph, if you want to wear this ring, I still have to test you further! When you pass the test, I'll take it out and put it on you, okay?"
Ling Feng was startled, then laughed, "Alright, it looks like I have to work even harder to prove myself!"
