Nanfengâs smile was extremely servile.
Shi Feng smiled indifferently. âThey were right, your daughter is indeed extremely beautiful.â
They? Who have been talking about me??I was on high alert but my face didnât show it.
âMay I trouble the Second Miss Nan to show me around the house?â He looked at me with amusement.
I lowered my head. âPlease.â
After we had walked away, I heard Shi Feng chuckle. âOkay, weâre out of everyoneâs sight. You donât be to tire yourself out pretending anymore.â I rolled my eyes while keeping my head lowered. In any case, I pretended to not have heard him.
Shi Feng grabbed me by arm. âNanxing!â
I instinctively raised my hand and pushed him away. I said formally, âYoung Master Shi, my father wants me to bring you on a tour around the house so letâs focus on that.â
Shi Feng chuckled. âThis place is only so big. What tour? Your father made that up so that the two of us would be alone.â I looked at him silently. He stared back at me and sighed, âYou really do look like your mother.â
I couldnât help it, my heart trembled. âYou know my mother?â
Seeing that I had taken his bait, Shi Feng chuckled joyfully.
âHow do you know her?â I stop acting dumb and pressed for details.
âNow this is much better. Why would you act dumb? Itâs so boring!â Shi Feng reached his hand to smooth out my hair. I instantly took a step back and glared at him.
He sighed but his eyes were dancing with amusement. âActually, our history goes way back. Your mother almost became my stepmother and we almost became step siblings.â
I was shocked.
Shi Feng continued, âBut she met your father and she became a permanent regret in my fatherâs heart. If my father met you, heâll be so excited.â
What kind of dogblood drama is this?
Shi Feng smiled at me. âBut perhaps our generation can rectify their unfulfilled dreams. Nanxing, Iâm sure you can see that this is fate.â
I was confused. âYoung Master Shi, what fate are you talking about?â
âThe fate that allows me to run into you, to fall in love with you at first sight. It was your mother who pushed us together.â Shi Fengâs words were filled with deep affection.
âPlease donât say that, youâre going to make my mother roll in her grave,â I said sincerely.
Shi Feng laughed out loud. âI finally understand why I couldnât find you for so many years. Youâre quite good at hiding yourself. Youâre very smart, I like that.â
Oh, jesus.
âSince Young Master Shi has been so direct to me then I shall respond in kind. Iâm sorry but I already have someone I love, and it is not you, Young Master Shi. Honestly, I also donât believe in fate.â I said plainly.
The smile hung on his face and Shi Feng continued, âIs that person Jing Ning? I see that he is quite concerned about you.â
I shook my head. âJing Ning loves my big sister, not me.â
âOh? Then who is this mysterious man?â Shi Feng clearly didnât believe me. I decided not to waste time with this man then.
âI know that you donât have that many good friends at school. Is that person from your school? Is it a crush? One-sided crush?â Shi Feng analyzed.
I felt like punching him.
âNanxing, I am determined to make you mine but I will give you time to get to know me. Test me if you like but I will not surrender you to another man like my father did! I hope you understand that.â He used his fingers to pinch my chin.
I slapped his hand away. âYoung Master Shi, please mind your manners!â
Shi Feng smiled. âIâm sorry. I was too impatient. I couldnât help myself whenever Iâm around you. I need to leave my mark on you so the other men wouldnât come any closer. But I forgot that you have character just like your mother. That is also what I like about you.â
Is he the upgraded version of Jing Ning? I have never seen such level of shamelessness in my life.
Shi Feng sighed, âNanxing, you really are your motherâs daughter. When she was angry, she would bite on her lips too!â That compliment made me shiver involuntarily. I wondered if this Shi Feng really saw me for me or for my mother.
I had no idea where Nan Feng found this pervert but I finally understood why Nanyang and the girls were so plainly dressed today. The Nan Family had found a new buyer for me!
I sneered internally.
