Chapter 1009: Chapter 1014: Farce on the Plane

When Liu Xiaojun boarded the plane with a frustrated expression, he saw Lin Feng sitting there with a "sincere" smile greeting him, looking so innocent and naive that he seemed to deserve a beating.

At least in Liu Xiaojun’s eyes, Lin Feng deserved a beating.

By now, if Liu Xiaojun still couldn’t guess that Lin Feng was deliberately messing with him earlier, he really had no face to live on.

This kid looks honest, but in reality, he’s quite the schemer! Liu Xiaojun shot a cold glance at Lin Feng, contemplating how to teach Lin Feng a lesson.

However, with no excuse right now, Liu Xiaojun decided to hold back for the moment.

After all, I am the team captain on this trip, plenty of chances to deal with this brat!

Liu Xiaojun pulled out his boarding pass, found his seat, and suddenly, he was pleasantly surprised to discover his seat was right next to Xu Jing, prompting immediate excitement...

"Great... With these more than two hours on the plane, I can finally have a good chat with the beautiful Xu Jing. If she falls asleep, maybe I can even cop a feel..." Just as he was eager to squeeze in next to Xu Jing, he suddenly heard Lin Feng start speaking.

"Teacher Xu, I don’t like the aisle seat, how about swapping places with me?"

Then, without waiting for Xu Jing to respond, Lin Feng plopped down in Xu Jing’s seat, placing Xu Jing on the outside and positioning himself between Liu Xiaojun and Xu Jing.

Damn, this kid is asking for death! Liu Xiaojun’s fantasies shattered in an instant, staring furiously at Lin Feng with a ghastly expression.

"Damn brat, always going against me, could it be he has an interest in the beautiful Xu Jing? Hmph, as a student, actually liking his own teacher, it’s simply against moral principles!" Liu Xiaojun was filled with anger, ultimately sitting beside Lin Feng, fuming over how to teach Lin Feng a lesson.

Lin Feng, however, continued to feign admiration for Liu Xiaojun, occasionally offering smiles, even complimenting him now and then, almost convincing Liu Xiaojun that Lin Feng was genuinely a good person.

Once all the passengers had boarded, the flight attendants instructed them to fasten their seat belts, conducting a thorough check, and then the plane took off amidst a loud roar into the sky.

Half an hour later, the plane smoothly entered its intended flight path. Lin Feng, somewhat silent, watched the small TV screen displaying altitude and temperature data, his mind slightly tumultuous.

Since calling Su Zi, Lin Feng had dialed her number almost every night for the following week, yet the calls never went through, and three days ago, Su Zi’s number became inactive...

Even though Su Zi had already told Lin Feng her number would be deactivated soon, when he clued in to its complete disappearance, Lin Feng still felt a bit uneasy, as if an invisible thread within him was tugged at and then snapped...

Lin Feng thought he could handle all matters with complete rationality after facing life and death countless times, but this time, he knew he was defeated.

With Su Zi’s number deactivated, Lin Feng approached Ning Aoxue for answers. However, the usually warm inside, cold outside Ning Aoxue had been looking at him strangely these days, as if wanting to speak yet holding back, eventually avoiding his gaze altogether. Whenever Lin Feng seemed to want a private conversation with her, she would hide behind Xue Qingyi for protection...

Today was no different, with Ning Aoxue seated next to Xue Qingyi across the aisle, showing no intent to speak with Lin Feng.

Ning Aoxue might have her own reasons for not revealing the truth, but it made Lin Feng very uncomfortable, prompting him to break his usual norms and seek help from his father Lin Zhonghua.

Lin Feng didn’t ask Lin Zhonghua to do anything for him, just to investigate two things.

The things Lin Feng asked Lin Zhonghua to investigate were, first, to confirm whether Su Zi was part of Chancellor Su’s family, and second, the recent health condition of Chancellor Su!

Initially, Lin Zhonghua was almost scared stiff upon hearing Lin Feng’s two questions.

"Lin Feng, why would you think of investigating this information? This is all top secret! By protocol, it absolutely cannot be disclosed. Even though you’re my own son, I can’t tell you..."

At that time, Lin Zhonghua had a cautious look in his eyes, full of suspicion, even suspecting that Lin Feng had been bribed by a foreign power to inquire about such matters.

Ultimately, Lin Zhonghua didn’t verbally tell Lin Feng the two things he wanted to know... He wrote them in Lin Feng’s palm with his finger.

Su Zi is the daughter of China’s number two, Chancellor Su!

Chancellor Su’s recent frequent ailments might lead to an unexpected event soon!

Confirming these two pieces of information didn’t shock Lin Feng much as he had pieced most of it together from past clues.

Su Zi’s identity wasn’t the most crucial; what Lin Feng knew was that Su Zi needed his help right now, and that’s why he came!

While Lin Feng was lost in his thoughts, he suddenly heard a girl’s shriek from the adjacent seat.

"Ah... What are you doing?!"

It was Ning Aoxue’s voice. Lin Feng quickly opened his eyes and looked over, only to see Ning Aoxue frantically brushing something off her clothes, which were covered in water droplets. The woman sitting next to Ning Aoxue, apparently in her thirties, held a cup of water and looked innocently at Ning Aoxue, pouting.

"Miss, can you please not move around while I’m getting my drink? Good thing it’s warm water, if it was hot water it would have scalded you, you little vixen!"

The thin-lipped woman shot a sideways glance at Ning Aoxue, rolling her eyes triumphantly, her voice extremely shrill and raspy, quite unpleasant.

"I wasn’t moving!" Ning Aoxue looked up, gritting her teeth at the woman, speaking coldly, "Don’t slander me!"

"You weren’t moving? Ha... funny, if you weren’t moving, did some bitch’s paw hit my hand, causing me to spill water on you?" The woman sneered, her voice exceedingly harsh as she asked.

Sitting next to Ning Aoxue, Xue Qingyi’s expression turned cold. After casting a glancing glare at the woman on Ning Aoxue’s left, she whispered to Ning Aoxue, "Aoxue, don’t bother with such a shrew. Go change your clothes."

"You old hag, who are you calling a shrew! Say it again if you dare! See if I won’t scratch your face!" The woman’s voice immediately shot up several decibels upon hearing Xue Qingyi, and she rolled up her sleeves as if ready for a fight.

"I’d like to see you try. Touch me once, and I’ll break your claws off. Believe it or not?" Xue Qingyi let out a cold smile, glanced at the woman, and solemnly threatened.

Xue Qingyi’s gaze was icy and menacing, with a thick air of hostility that pierced to the heart. The woman, intimidated by Xue Qingyi’s glare, didn’t dare act up, instead turning her head to whine sharply to a man behind her, "Honey, this woman threatened me, aren’t you going to stand up and teach her a lesson?"
