Bai Feifei wasn't dumb. Hearing the change in her grandfather's tone, her eyes lit up, "Grandpa, does this mean you agree to our relationship?"

"Did I ever say I didn't agree?" Old Master Bai rolled his eyes. "I'm just annoyed that this rascal silently whisked away my precious granddaughter without coming to meet the elders first. No matter what, I have to teach him a proper lesson!"

Old Master Bai glanced at Ling Feng and was inwardly frustrated. Even until the end, Ling Feng hadn't been intimidated by him. This was, frankly, a bit of a failure on his part!

But, to be fair, Old Master Bai actually liked Ling Feng a lot! Though Ling Feng had more women than he probably should, in Old Master Bai's eyes, this wasn't an unforgivable crime. On the contrary, the tasks Ling Feng had completed in the past always made Old Master Bai slap his thighs in approval!

Moreover, this time, for Bai Feifei, Ling Feng had infiltrated the enemy's base and brought her back without a scratch, which further satisfied Old Master Bai. The only thing that irked him was that, despite the two of them already confirming their relationship, that brat Ling Feng hadn't rushed over to face him—forcing Feifei to confess first.

"How could a Bai Family girl lack so much restraint?" So, Old Master Bai decided to test Ling Feng, which is how all this had come about earlier.

"Grandpa, you really scared me to death!" After hearing her mother's explanation, Bai Feifei pouted coquettishly and latched onto Old Master Bai. "I was so terrified by you!"

Old Master Bai patted Bai Feifei and said, "You're not a little girl anymore, pay attention to your image! It wasn't my intention to scare you. The person I wanted to scare isn't afraid in the slightest!"

Old Master Bai cast a disgruntled look at Ling Feng.

Ling Feng rubbed his nose. Judging by Old Master Bai's expression, it seemed he was still upset about earlier. It was as if Ling Feng had unknowingly stolen the upper hand.

Ling Feng knew better than to remain defiant at this moment. With a cheerful smile, he stepped forward and said, "Grandpa, who says I'm not scared? I'm so nervous right now my palms are sweating! But I thought, to be worthy of Feifei, I have to show some manly courage. If I act too unworthy, you wouldn't feel secure entrusting her to me, right?"

Looking at Ling Feng taking his cues perfectly, Old Master Bai snorted, "Hah, I don't see a shred of fear in you! But fine—since Feifei has chosen you and you've made your promise to us, Aunt Mu and I agree to your relationship! That said, let me make one thing crystal clear first."

Old Master Bai fixed Ling Feng with a serious gaze. "Feifei is the Little Princess of our Bai Family. I'm now entrusting her to you! If I ever find out that you've wronged her, hurt her, or broken her heart, I, Bai Censheng, will not let you off! I may be retired, but these hands of mine still know how to hold a gun. Understood?"

Bai Feifei protested, "Grandpa, what are you saying? Ling Feng would never do that!"

Ling Feng also withdrew his smile, replying earnestly, "Grandpa Bai, you can rest assured of this. While I, Ling Feng, may be a bit of a flirt, I would never let any of my women suffer any grievance!"

"Don't think your flowery words will fool me!" Old Master Bai said. "I'll judge you by your actions going forward!"

As he spoke, Old Master Bai stretched out his hand. "Hand it over!"

Bai Feifei looked puzzled. "Grandpa, what do you want?"

Ling Feng immediately understood what Old Master Bai meant. He retrieved the gift Old Master Bai had once refused and presented it again. "Just a small token, no real significance."

"Hmph, if this gift doesn't satisfy me…" Old Master Bai said as he opened the box. His expression quickly shifted to one of astonishment.

"What is it?" Seeing her grandfather's surprised look, Bai Feifei also leaned in. After seeing the box's contents, she asked curiously, "Grandpa, what is this? Why does it surprise you so much?"

Old Master Bai took a deep breath and said, "This isn't just any ordinary item; this is a Jade Pig Dragon!"

Bai Feifei was utterly confused. "What's a Jade Pig Dragon?"

"You don't even know that? Don't tell anyone you're from the Bai Family when you go out!" Old Master Bai scoffed. "You're always playing with weapons but know nothing about this. The Jade Pig Dragon, also called the Jade Beast Shape, is an ancient jade artifact commonly found in places like Red Mountain. It's believed to be the earliest prototype of the dragon and was likely used in religious ceremonies. Judging by this piece here, it must be several thousand years old!"

Bai Feifei stared curiously at the peculiar jade artifact.

Old Master Bai said gravely, "Fifteen years ago, a Green Jade Pig Dragon was auctioned overseas, fetching more than a hundred million. This White Jade Pig Dragon is even more exquisite and clearly more valuable…"

As he spoke, Old Master Bai looked up and said seriously, "Ling Feng, this gift is no small thing—I can't accept it!"

Bai Feifei covered her mouth in shock. Something this small being worth over a hundred million completely exceeded her imagination.

Ling Feng smiled faintly. "Grandpa Bai, there's no need to decline. To me, this White Jade Pig Dragon is just a decorative trinket. I know you love collecting antiques, so I thought I'd give it to you to prevent it from being wasted in my hands. Besides, I only got this White Jade Pig Dragon by sheer chance."

"Sheer chance? You've got some luck!" Old Master Bai carefully examined the White Jade Pig Dragon. Ever since his retirement, he had become engrossed in collecting antiques, so Ling Feng's gift truly delighted him.

But as much as he liked it, the item's value made him hesitant to accept it.

"Grandpa Bai, actually, I have something else to tell you," Ling Feng said. "You're aware that when I went searching for Feifei, I also carried out a mission for the Dragon Group. During that mission, I managed to retrieve some treasures from the Louvre…"

"What?" Old Master Bai's eyes widened. "Ling Feng, say that again. What did you just say?"

"I said, I took back a batch of treasures from the Louvre," Ling Feng said seriously. "This White Jade Pig Dragon was among the Huaxia Pavilion artifacts I retrieved. And it wasn't just this—it included many other Huaxia relics, as well as famous works like the Venus de Milo and the Madonna of the Rocks!"

"Good! Excellent!" Old Master Bai burst into hearty laughter, eyes gleaming with admiration and kindness as he looked at Ling Feng.

Since falling in love with antique collecting, Old Master Bai had often felt indignant and distressed. So many precious Huaxia treasures had been lost in the chaos of the past, scattered across foreign lands. Now, those who had stolen them brazenly displayed the stolen artifacts as if it were their right—utterly shameless!
