Extreme Almightiest Young Master Chapter 25

"I know, is there anything else?" Lin Feng glanced at Zhao Jian with complete indifference, as if the bonus Zhao Jian had docked and the salary he was about to dock didn’t belong to him at all, leaving Zhao Jian frozen in place with his calm demeanor.

"Go sweep the area in front of the office building. As for the salary issue, the section chief will look into it specifically." Seeing Lin Feng like this, Zhao Jian immediately felt as if he had thrown a heavy punch into the air, and his anger intensified.

Docking pay was possible, but it wasn’t something he could determine with just a word. Docking bonuses was easy; he could just make up an excuse, but salary deductions were more troublesome and required approval from the higher-ups. Now that Lin Feng had just received praise from Vice Principal Ning, Zhao Jian really didn’t dare to do anything rash, which inflamed his anger even further.

With no alternative, he roared in frustration.

"Uh, ten... nine... eight... seven..." Lin Feng responded and began walking out while muttering numbers to himself.

Zhao Jian was taken aback. What was Lin Feng doing? Could it be that he was dazed by chemical reagents this morning? Why was he counting as he walked out?

"One." Counting down, Lin Feng reached the door, stopped in front of the cleaning tools, and mumbled to himself, "Perfect timing, time to get off work."

Hearing Lin Feng’s words, Zhao Jian felt darkness before his eyes and nearly choked with rage.

Before he could say anything else, he realized Lin Feng had already left.

Ding Wan’er was in a pretty good mood today. Since she had no plans for the evening, she decided to do her usual routine of driving to yoga. Little did she know, just as she was leaving the school gate and before she could get into her car, a sports car blocked her way. This immediately soured her mood because she saw someone—a person who had pursued her for a long time, someone she really disliked yet couldn’t lose her temper at—Li Wenkai.

Li Wenkai was overjoyed today, in a fantastic mood, because after various efforts, he had finally managed to figure out Ding Wan’er’s general daily routine. Now, having just learned the specifics, he stopped her, got out of the car with a big bouquet of roses, and approached Ding Wan’er with a beaming smile.

"Wan’er, I’m sincere about you. Just give me a chance, shall we have dinner together tonight?" Li Wenkai said to Ding Wan’er with a smile.

"Li Wenkai, I’ve told you many times, it’s impossible between us. Could you please stop bothering me from now on?" Ding Wan’er was truly incensed. She had rejected Li Wenkai’s advances many times, but he persisted as if she had never spoken, making her incredibly annoyed.

"Wan’er, I’m truly sincere. Although you reject me every time, I believe that one day my sincerity will move you," Li Wenkai remained unshaken, sticking to his viewpoint.

"Don’t you get tired of this? I’ve told you, I have a fiancé," Ding Wan’er said, equally exasperated. Facing such persistent harassment, she really didn’t know what to do and couldn’t help blurting out in a moment of irritation.

"How is that possible? I’ve inquired, and you’ve never had a fiancé. Don’t lie to me. Wan’er, please go to dinner with me tonight, okay?" Li Wenkai continued his efforts relentlessly, not giving in an inch, completely ignoring Ding Wan’er’s mention of a fiancé. Who didn’t know Ding Wan’er was single? Trying to deceive him with such talk was laughable.

Moreover, his recent intensification of his pursuit was out of necessity; his family had issued him an ultimatum to secure Ding Wan’er as soon as possible. If he delayed, they would cut off his allowance.

"I’m telling the truth. Why won’t you believe me? Please move your car; I need to go out," said Ding Wan’er, already frustrated because her good mood had been spoiled. Also, she found it odd—today seemed different from usual. Although Li Wenkai had always pursued her, he had never been so insistent. What was up with him today?

This was the school entrance, and although there weren’t many people around at the moment, she wouldn’t want to be seen and have rumors spread.

"Wan’er, I just want to have dinner with you and talk," Li Wenkai said in an attempt to sway her, appearing utterly sincere and heartfelt.

Goodness, what was up with Li Wenkai today? He used to be easy to talk to, so why had he changed like this? No, she had to figure out a way. But now that it was evening, what could she do?

As Ding Wan’er turned her head away from Li Wenkai, feeling worried, she suddenly caught sight of someone—she blinked...

It was Lin Feng! What a coincidence, to run into him. Seeing Lin Feng walking out leisurely, a thought struck her.

A fiancé, there was an authentic, ready-made fiancé right there!

Although she disliked arranged marriages, he didn’t seem to be aware of it, and at this moment, Ding Wan’er’s sole concern was getting Li Wenkai away from her, lest it turned into a scene at the school gate.

If she hadn’t seen Lin Feng just now, with that idea flashing through her mind, she might have actually agreed to Li Wenkai just to leave the school first.

Indeed, Li Wenkai had long studied what Ding Wan’er cared about and what she worried over, which was why he deliberately pursued her in public at the school gate.

Seeing Ding Wan’er turn her head aside with a change of expression, Li Wenkai felt a surge of elation in his heart, thinking there might still be a chance.

Meanwhile, Lin Feng, who had just stepped out of the school, didn’t expect to see a familiar face so soon after leaving—Ding Wan’er, the beautiful school principal. However, it seemed like Ding Wan’er was in a bit of trouble, being hassled by a guy who looked like a spoiled rich kid. But Lin Feng thought to himself that it was none of his business if someone else was pursuing her. After glancing at the handsome guy entangling Ding Wan’er, he pretended not to see anything and walked away without a second thought.

Ding Wan’er had hoped that Lin Feng would step in to help her out, but he simply walked away after a single glance. This infuriated her. She thought, "For better or worse, I’m still your fiancée. How can you just stand by and watch me being harassed without reacting at all? What kind of fiancé does that?"

In a moment of anger, Ding Wan’er forgot that Lin Feng wasn’t aware of the contents of the letter, but seeing him look her way and then ignore her made her feel extremely annoyed.

But then she had a thought and realized that Lin Feng didn’t know about the letter.

"Lin Feng, over here. Didn’t you say you had something to discuss with me tonight? Aren’t you going to drive me? Let’s go." Ding Wan’er called out to Lin Feng, who was passing by not far from them, and without waiting for his agreement, she threw the car keys to him and got into the backseat before swiftly closing the door.

"Huh?" Lin Feng, holding the keys, was taken aback, wondering when he had ever made plans to talk to her.

But assessing the situation, Lin Feng had an inkling of what was going on.

"Aren’t you getting in the car?" Ding Wan’er, seeing Lin Feng still standing motionless, opened the car window and called out to him again.

Lin Feng glanced at Ding Wan’er and then at Li Wenkai, quickly realizing what was happening—it turned out that Ding Wan’er was annoyed by Li Wenkai and was seeking his help to avoid the man’s persistent advances.

Having once met the beautiful principal and considering that Laozi seemed to have some connection with her, he decided to lend a hand, smiling faintly without a word and got into the car, then honked at Li Wenkai to move out of the way.

What!

Li Wenkai was furious inside, thinking, "Who the hell is this guy? A mere workman dares to spoil Laozi’s good deed? Is he tired of living?" He glared menacingly at Lin Feng, thinking to himself that Lin Feng had better not cross paths with him again, or he would make him pay.

"Wan’er, don’t be mad at me. If you need an excuse, you don’t have to go to this extent. Just picking any random guy, that’s unsafe. How about this, I’ll personally take you home," Li Wenkai was incredulous, doubting that a man in work clothes could have any serious matter to discuss with Ding Wan’er.

The dignified university principal, discussing something with a worker at the university? That was a joke. It was obviously a spur-of-the-moment tactic to avoid him. Recalling how close he had been to succeeding, Li Wenkai was not ready to give up.

"First off, I’m not making excuses, and secondly, I know Lin Feng," Ding Wan’er retorted, her temper rising as she rolled down the car window to speak.

"Ah, Wan’er, how about this: get in my car, and I’ll take you wherever you need to go. What do you say? It really worries me to see you in that car," Li Wenkai kept on pressing, still subscribing to the belief that persistence would pay off. He had investigated and concluded that Ding Wan’er surely hadn’t experienced such tactics before and believed his chances of success were decent.

Hearing this remark, Ding Wan’er was utterly infuriated, speechless at how he could be concerned about her safety in this car, whilst she didn’t feel safe at all in his.

"If you don’t drive away now, I’ll ram you," Ding Wan’er said angrily to Li Wenkai, clearly exasperated.

Just then, the sound of the engine suddenly revving roared to life, sending a jolt of adrenaline rushing through her veins.

The car shot off like an arrow leaving its bow, giving a powerful sense of acceleration, followed by a loud "bang."

In that instant, Ding Wan’er was stunned, her body rocked for a moment, and she almost lunged forward. But with her eyes wide open, she saw Lin Feng drive the car into the sports car in front of them, nudging it aside, and then calmly driving away as if nothing had happened.

Li Wenkai, who was standing a short distance from his own car, hadn’t expected Lin Feng to suddenly drive away, let alone hit his own car.

He stood there dumbfounded, holding the flowers, staring after Ding Wan’er’s disappearing car for a long time, still unable to grasp what had just happened. It was hard to believe that it was real—that someone had hit his car, and intentionally at that...

Roughly and boldly hitting one’s own car; they dared...

Ding Wan’er was in complete shock, unable to comprehend that a casual mumble from her had actually been taken seriously by Lin Feng.

He had actually dared to ram it. Ding Wan’er was flabbergasted. It was outrageous; he really had hit it.

Sitting in the car and staring at Lin Feng, it took her a while before she managed to say, "You... you really went ahead and... rammed it!"
