"It's a long story."

Lin Feng sighed.

"No worries. Now that you're back, just live well. If you have any difficulties, let me know."

Ouyang Xiu didn't press further but patted Lin Feng's shoulder as he used to, offering understanding.

"Okay!"

Lin Feng suddenly felt a bit emotional.

Once a teacher, always like a father!

After his parents passed away, this old man was like his only elder.

Lin Feng could disregard everyone's attitude, except for a select few he truly cared about.

"And who are these two?"

At this moment, Ouyang Xiu looked at Lin Yun Yao and Li Xiaoke beside him.

Lin Feng smiled and said, "This is my sister and her classmate."

"Little Yao, this is my former homeroom teacher, the best teacher I've ever had."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yun Yao and Li Xiaoke quickly stood up and politely said:

"Hello, Teacher Ouyang!"

"Hello, Teacher Ouyang!"

"Hello!"

Ouyang Xiu nodded and smiled kindly.

Seeing this scene, a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in Yun Jingchu's eyes. He felt the homeroom teacher was biased!

Back then, he always treated Lin Feng differently!

Now, even though Lin Feng had ended up like this, his attitude was still so good!

Why?

In what way am I, Yun Jingchu, inferior to Lin Feng?

Now I'm the CEO of a listed company, an outstanding young man in Jinling City, and an excellent alumnus of the school!

I own assets close to a billion, with countless luxury cars and villas under my name.

And what does Lin Feng have?

Aside from being a bit more handsome, how is he better than me, Yun Jingchu?

Thinking of this, Yun Jingchu exhaled a breath of turbid qi and said:

"Teacher Ouyang, I thought it was rare for old classmates to gather, so I invited Lin Feng to join us for a meal, but he wasn't very willing."

"Is that so?"

Ouyang Xiu frowned slightly, then looked at Lin Feng and said:

"Xiao Feng, it's been ten years. Let's take this opportunity to have a good chat. I also have some things to say to you!"

"Alright!"

This time, Lin Feng nodded and didn't refuse.

...

Soon, the group arrived at a private room called the Imperial Private Suite on the top floor of Chuan-Xiang Pavilion.

This private room was indeed the most luxurious one in Chuan-Xiang Pavilion, with an area of nearly a hundred square meters, equipped with all kinds of facilities, and staffed by five service personnel!

One could say, even without ordering anything, just opening such a private room would cost several thousand!

"There are still some people who haven't arrived yet. Let's sit and chat for a while."

Yun Jingchu, acting as the host, smiled and invited several school leaders to sit down.

The school leaders all sat around Yun Jingchu, exchanging flattering remarks.

From these conversations, Lin Feng gleaned some information.

Jinling University was building a new independent college in the city's outskirts, with a project cost of over two hundred million, but they were short by about thirty million, hoping Yun Jingchu could sponsor a bit.

"What do you mean by 'sponsor a bit'? Isn't this belittling me? As a member of Jinling University, a mere thirty million is something I, Yun Jingchu, can afford!"

Yun Jingchu said generously.

"Chairman Yun is so generous!"

"Haha... I knew once we mentioned it to Chairman Yun, it wouldn't be a problem!"

"Our school has produced an excellent student!"

Led by Wang Tiangao, several school leaders laughed and praised.

Beside them, Zhao Shuang'er looked at Yun Jingchu with admiration.

Thirty million is no small amount!

Being able to produce so much cash at once shows Yun Jingchu's strong capabilities!

Yun Jingchu had been pursuing her, and she was hesitant, planning to observe more.

But now, seeing this, she felt she could try dating Yun Jingchu.

"Oh, please don't flatter me! I'm just doing what I think I should do."

Yun Jingchu said with feigned humility.

As he spoke, he glanced at Lin Feng without leaving a trace.

Seeing Lin Feng looking at him, he felt secretly pleased!

Hahaha!

Lin Feng, Lin Feng, now you should see the gap between us, right?

I can casually take out thirty million!

And you?

You might not even be able to come up with three thousand now, right?

The school leaders noticed Yun Jingchu's gaze and glanced at Lin Feng, but quickly looked away.

Just a nobody, not worth their time!

If Yun Jingchu hadn't invited him, someone like Lin Feng wouldn't be qualified to dine with them!

"Hmph! Such a show-off!"

Seeing her brother being looked down upon, Lin Yun Yao felt indignant and whispered.

"It's not really showing off. Being able to casually take out thirty million in cash is really impressive! And I've heard of this Yun Jingchu, he's one of Jinling City's top ten outstanding youths! The recently rising Tianjing Group seems to have been founded by him!"

At this moment, Li Xiaoke whispered.

"So what, he's not as handsome as my brother."

Lin Yun Yao muttered.

"Faint~"

Zhao Shuang'er rolled her eyes upon hearing this.

Though that's true!

But in today's world, being handsome is useless; having wealth and power is the way to go!

"Xiaoke, if you had to choose between him and my brother, who would you choose?"

Lin Yun Yao asked.

Li Xiaoke thought for a moment and said.

"Logically, I should choose Yun Jingchu, but you're my bestie, so I'd definitely stand by your brother."

"Hehe..."

Lin Yun Yao immediately laughed upon hearing this.

Beside them, Lin Feng heard the conversation between the two girls and couldn't help but feel amused.

Li Xiaoke really is a treasure!

At this moment, Ouyang Xiu, sitting nearby, also said:

"Xiao Feng, as your teacher, I say, don't be upset! Yun Jingchu is indeed doing well now! Many big figures in the city have noticed him, and if nothing unexpected happens, his future is limitless."

"There's nothing to be upset about. He has his bright path, and I have my own narrow bridge."

Lin Feng shook his head.

"Sigh... There's something I don't know if I should say."

"Old teacher, just say it."

"Sometimes, one must learn to let go to gain! If you could get Yun Jingchu's help, you could easily change your current situation."

"I know your abilities; you just lack a good platform! You should know the story of enduring hardships better than I do."

Lin Feng looked at the sincere Ouyang Xiu, remained silent for a moment, then smiled and said:

"Old teacher, if I did that, would I still be Lin Feng? Besides, I'm not necessarily worse off than Yun Jingchu now."

"Sigh!"

Ouyang Xiu sighed upon hearing this, then changed the subject and said:

"What happened between you and Yinuo? Weren't you two doing well back then? How did you end up separating?"

"Maybe it was just not meant to be."

Lin Feng's expression turned pained.

In this life, besides his parents and sister, the person he felt most sorry for was Chen Yinuo!

Back then!

Chen Yinuo loved him so much, not caring that he had no car or house!

She said as long as he proposed to her parents in YunChuan, she would marry him without hesitation!

Even after all these years,

Lin Feng still remembered that scene before they parted.

That night,

In front of Jinling Train Station, neon lights flickered.

Chen Yinuo adjusted his collar while softly saying:

"Lin Feng, I'm going home first! Remember to come early. I'll have a big surprise for you. Hehe (♡˙︶˙♡)"

In the blink of an eye...

Ten years had passed!

A whole decade!

She never got to see him arrive!

"Actually, Yinuo came to see me not long ago, asking if I had seen you."

Ouyang Xiu said.

Lin Feng's heart trembled, and he asked, "And then?"

"She seemed to be doing poorly... After not seeing her for years, she had changed, no longer the lively and cute girl she once was."

"Sigh! I asked her what was wrong, but she wouldn't say! She just left a phone number, saying if I saw you, to give it to you and make sure you contact her!"

As Ouyang Xiu spoke, he took out a pen and paper, wrote down a phone number, and handed it to Lin Feng.
