After Ling Feng left, Chief Leck gradually composed himself, his anger fading as he sipped his tea and muttered to himself, "Could it be that I was being overly suspicious? This kid approaching Jenny might not have that kind of intention?"

Ling Feng had no idea that from beginning to end, Chief Leck was merely putting on an act!

When Chief Leck made that proposal, if Ling Feng had shown any gleefulness or agreed immediately, Chief Leck would have definitely used the Johnson Family's power to eliminate Ling Feng!

He could not allow anyone with ulterior motives to get close to Jenny. But judging from the current results, it seems Ling Feng really doesn't harbor those kinds of intentions toward Jenny!

"Hmph, arrogant brat! How dare you be so rude to me!" Rick Johnson remarked angrily. "Besides, my daughter is a well-known beauty in European high society. How could she possibly be unworthy of a punk like you?"

Though he said so, the killing intent in Chief Leck's eyes had long faded.

"Ling Feng, Blood-Handed Asura, one of the Eight War Gods of the Underworld! Looks like I underestimated him earlier. In terms of judgment, I truly cannot compare to Jenny!" Leck sighed to himself before taking another sip of tea, looking utterly relaxed.

When Ling Feng stepped outside, he was greeted by a concerned Jenny. "Ling Feng, what did my father say to you? You didn't make him angry, did you?"

"Your father expressed his satisfaction with me," Ling Feng shrugged and said playfully. "He mentioned that once this meeting is over, he plans to marry you off to me—and include the whole Johnson Family as your dowry!"

Jenny rolled her eyes at Ling Feng. "Can you say something serious for once? But judging by your current expression, you seem to have gotten along with my father, so I'm relieved. I was really worried you'd offend him."

"What would happen if I did offend your father?" Ling Feng asked curiously.

"What do you think?" Jenny retorted, a little annoyed. "Even I don't dare to raise my voice in front of my father, and yet you're so audacious! But don't worry, I'll protect you as long as I'm here!"

"Thanks for that!" Ling Feng chuckled. "Since I came here by your invitation, of course, you're responsible for my safety!"

At that moment, an excited voice from afar called out, "Sister Jenny, I heard you've arrived. I—"

Before the voice could finish, a young, handsome blond man appeared before Jenny and Ling Feng. When he noticed Ling Feng standing beside Jenny, his expression instantly darkened. "Who are you? Why are you standing so close to Sister Jenny?"

Ling Feng glanced curiously at the blond man and asked Jenny, "Who's this dim-witted guy?"

"Don't mind him!" Jenny replied impatiently. "He's just some brat from the Andrew Family. What are you doing here? Don't tell me your house arrest has been lifted?"

The blond man, his cheeks slightly flushed, looked at Jenny. "Sister Jenny, are you still mad about what happened earlier? I know I was wrong… But who is this guy? Why is he standing so close to you?"

With sharp eyes, the blond man glared at Ling Feng and declared, "I'm Beck Andrew. Who are you?"

The Andrew Family was considered a distinguished, old European family specializing in the food and beverage business. In certain respects, they had close ties with the Johnson Family.

"Do I have to tell you?" Ling Feng said playfully as he leaned closer to Jenny and whispered in her ear, "Jenny, does this kid have a crush on you? I didn't expect you to be the type who attracts little boys!"

Ling Feng's breath brushed against her earlobe, but instead of feeling repulsed, Jenny experienced a strange, unexplainable sensation in her heart.

Witnessing Ling Feng casually leaning so close to Jenny enraged Beck Andrew, who shouted furiously, "How dare you act so frivolously! I, Beck Andrew, as Sister Jenny's admirer, challenge you to a duel!"

Jenny coughed awkwardly a few times. She hadn't expected Beck to bring up a duel with Ling Feng. Is this kid really thinking straight?

"Beck, stop it!" Jenny said sternly. "A duel? Just go back home already!"

Beck responded seriously, "Sister Jenny, please don't interfere! This is a matter between men! I like you, and I need to defend my right to love you!"

Jenny looked exasperated. "Beck, how many times do I need to tell you? I don't like you. I've only ever seen you as a younger brother! If you keep pestering me, I'll report this to Uncle Andrew and have you grounded again!"

The fear briefly flickered across Beck Andrew's face, but he clenched his teeth and said determinedly, "No! Sister Jenny, this is about a man's honor—I must do this!"

Beck took a step forward, staring intently at Ling Feng. "I challenge you to a duel! If you're a man, accept my challenge!"

"Why should I?" Ling Feng said indifferently. "Do you think I'm stupid? This is ridiculous."

"If you don't accept my challenge, then leave Sister Jenny!" Beck said earnestly. "Because as a weakling, you don't deserve to stand by her side!"

"And you're saying you do?" Ling Feng replied with a wry smile.

Beck declared proudly, "Of course. I'm already a B-ranked fighter! Unlike certain people, I don't shy away from challenges. I'll use my hands to protect Sister Jenny. I—"

Before Beck could finish speaking, Ling Feng suddenly threw a punch. A piercing gust followed as the force slammed into the wall behind Beck with a loud crack. Slowly turning his head, Beck saw a clear fist imprint embedded in the wall.

"You're not qualified to challenge me!" Ling Feng concluded with a smirk. "Still want to insist on a duel?"

Beck's face turned pale as he stared at the fist imprint in disbelief. To unleash such power with externalizing inner strength and condensing it—this was at least an A-ranked peak cultivation! This Eastern man turned out to be an A-ranked fighter. How could this be possible? Facing someone like this in a duel would be suicidal!

Jenny snapped impatiently, "Beck, who I like is my own decision. Stop being so presumptuous! Ling Feng, let's go!"

Jenny then took the initiative to loop her arm around Ling Feng's as they walked to the side.

Watching this, Beck's heart shattered into pieces. He bit his lip and shouted after them, "So your name is Ling Feng, huh? Let me tell you, I won't give up! I hope you'll accept my challenge on Fengyun Platform!"

With that, Beck turned and left, his back view a little crestfallen.

Ling Feng clicked his tongue and said, "Jenny, this kid really seems to like you. Why don't you consider him?"

Jenny shot back irritably, "How could I possibly like someone so rash and impulsive? Anyway, thanks for going easy on him earlier. I really thought you were going to kill him!"

"Is that what you think of me?" Ling Feng said, chuckling. "The Andrew Family may have some influence, but I wouldn't kill someone over something so trivial. I'm a good person!"

"Hah, the infamous Blood-Handed Asura claims to be a good person? Are you joking?" Jenny sneered.

"By the way, what's that Fengyun Platform Beck mentioned earlier?" Ling Feng asked. "From his tone, it doesn't sound like anything good."

Jenny explained, "Fengyun Platform is a place where the younger generation of various families competes. It's also a way to showcase a family's young talents. For most, it's simply a place for entertainment and amusement!"
