Chapter 979: The Story of Ling and Heng (242)

She was fair-skinned and pretty and seemed to be very quiet, not the kind of spoiled, annoying girl.

Although Mother Qiao was dissatisfied with the fact that her son brought her girlfriend here, she didn’t say too much about her. She just turned her eyes to Qiao Fei. “Is she really your girlfriend?”

“Yes.” Qiao Fei put his arm around Feng Ling’s shoulders.

Feng Ling didn’t move and forced a smile.

But in her heart, she kept telling herself: We are just brothers, brothers, brothers…

It was normal for members to be so intimate at the base. Qiao Fei had hugged her like this before, but they were just brothers, brothers…

Father Qiao looked a bit unhappy. “Are you winding me up? What did I tell you a few days ago? Come and see the girl. It’s okay if you don’t like her, but now you brought a ‘girlfriend’ over?! How can I explain this to the girl’s parents?”

“I’m just stating my position. As for how you explain to them, it’s your business. Now that my girlfriend is here, to save everyone’s face, don’t talk anything about marriage, blind dates, or otherwise.” Qiao Fei said indifferently. Although he seemed to be reminding his parents, Feng Ling could tell he was very annoyed by his parents’ actions.

If he was in a good mood, he wouldn’t have drunk overnight without sleeping.

Seeing his attitude, Feng Ling knew that he did need her to help him out. The little bit of resistance in her heart disappeared, and she tried to play his girlfriend harder.

“You…” Father Qiao frowned and was about to scold him.

Mother Qiao gently tugged at her husband’s arm at this time, whispering, “Forget it, this girl looks very honest. I don’t think she will disgrace us. Don’t scold A-Fei. If he really likes her, why do we have to break them up? Let’s go in. Most people have arrived. Don’t make them wait for us.”

Father Qiao quelled his temper, glared at them again, and entered the door with Mother Qiao.

After they entered, Feng Ling said in a low voice, “Your parents don’t look difficult. Why are you so distressed?”

“My mother likes honest and well-behaved girls. She isn’t fond of the girls from famous families. I’m not interested in the blind date they arranged for me, neither do I have the time to deal with this kind of affair, so please pretend to be my girlfriend tonight, OK? You happen to the type of girl she likes. At least here tonight, she will not give you a hard time. Don’t worry.”

Feng Ling nodded.

She was about to walk in with him when an elongated Rolls Royce stopped in front of the hotel.

Out of the corner of her eyes, Feng Ling saw a familiar figure. Looking back, she saw Mrs. Feng, Qin Qiu walking down the car.

She and Mrs. Feng, Qin Qiu, just met a few times, but for some reason, she felt that Mrs. Feng must be a very gentle woman, but every time they talked, she always said something she couldn’t understand, for example, her second daughter. But she heard that the Feng family has only one daughter.

Feng Ling never thought much about what Mrs. Feng said.

But when she saw Mrs. Feng, she still paused a bit and turned back to look at the next person coming out of the car.

Qin Qiu’s mother was the last one to get off, and after their car, here came a sports car. Feng Mingzhu came down from the driving seat of that sports car, threw the key to the hotel porter standing on the side, and walked straight carrying her leather bag without looking at the people coming out of the other car.

Even if Qin Qiu was helping the old lady to get off the car and seemed to need a hand, Feng Mingzhu had no intention to turn around to help. Obviously, she wanted to get rid of them and go in by herself.

Fortunately, a hotel porter came up to help. The old lady seemed not to be as healthy as she was when they last met. After getting out of the car, she took a few breaths, said something to Mrs. Feng, and then went up the stairs.

“What are you looking at?” Qiao Fei looked over in the direction that she was gazing when he turned back and found she was standing still.

When he saw Mrs. Feng, he was a bit surprised. He looked at the others around and said, “Grandfather Feng and Grandmother Feng rarely show up in public. This kind of banquets is usually attended by Mr. Feng, Mrs. Feng, and Feng Mingzhu. Occasionally, Mrs. Feng’s mother will come over. If I remember correctly, the two ladies are Mrs. Feng and her mother.”

Feng Ling didn’t speak.

Of course, she knew who they were.

She once helped them catch the robber and ate on the same table.

She hadn’t forgotten how the old lady looked at her.

“Let’s go.” Feng Ling withdrew her eyes.

Qin Qiu took the old lady up the stairs and said, “Mom, it’s getting colder and colder in Los Angeles. If you don’t feel well, you can rest at home. Let Mingzhu attend these activities in the future. She is not a child anymore, and we don’t have to accompany her into this kind of networking dinner party.”

The old lady said as she walked, “It’s boring to stay at home. I’d love to come out for a walk. Maybe I can’t move anymore soon. Then I won’t be able to come out again.”

When Feng Ling and Qiao Fei entered the banquet hall, Qin Qiu happened to lower her head to help the old lady sort out her clothes, so she didn’t notice Feng Ling.

Feng Mingzhu had already had a glass of champagne with some girls. When she turned back and found that Qin Qiu and her grandmother had not yet come in, she immediately became impatient. When she finally saw the two of them come in slowly, she put down the empty glass in her hand and said, “Mom, let grandmother rest at home next time. This kind of an occasion is not suitable for her.”

The old lady knew that Feng Mingzhu didn’t want her to come over with her and thought she was trouble, but she didn’t say anything. She had been used to the temper of her spoiled granddaughter, so she patted the back of Qin Qiu’s hand, hoping she would not scold Feng Mingzhu here.
