"What are you staring at me for? You... you tell me, what were you planning to do to me just now?"

Looking at Lin Feng's innocent face, Cao Ying grew even more annoyed. Just drop the act, you little pervert!

"Huh? What did I do to you? What did I do...?"

Lin Feng was genuinely confused, but he read something in Cao Ying's eyes. Thinking back to his actions just moments ago, he suddenly understood.

Damn it, she thought I was going to kiss her!

"Teacher Cao, do you trust my character?"

"I don't..."

"As my teacher, you should at least have some idea of the kind of person I am, right?"

"I do. You're a pervert!"

"..."

Lin Feng was utterly speechless; he was finding it hard to defend himself. If you caught me in the act and scolded me, I'd accept it. But you're wrongly accusing me when I'm innocent. How can we even get along like this?!

"I was trying to put a coat over you because I was afraid you'd catch a cold."

Looking at the clothes on the hospital bed, Lin Feng let out a long breath and explained, not caring if Cao Ying believed him or not.

"Using your mouth to put a coat on me?"

"Er... well, as you can see, my hands are both immobilized. If I don't use my mouth, then I'd have to use my feet."

"Disgusting!" Cao Ying shot Lin Feng a glare and said, "Lin Feng, don't bother explaining. Explanations are just cover-ups. You really are... incorrigible. Look at me, I carried you for so long last night, I haven't slept well, and now you're still trying to take advantage of me. Are you even human?"

"Teacher Cao, I'm truly being wronged. I've always been an upright person. Even if I wanted to kiss you, I would tell you first before kissing you. How could I do it sneakily? I've always despised that kind of behavior. I know you went through a lot for me last night... Hmm, how about this: if you marry me, I'll compensate you double, no, tenfold. Even if you want the stars from the sky, I'll pluck them for you. How about that?"

"I want you to shut up!" Hearing Lin Feng bring up last night again, Cao Ying blushed. Last night, I only said those things to coax him. How could he take it seriously and keep mentioning it?

"Don't you dare mention last night again. Otherwise, I'll sew your mouth shut!" Cao Ying shot Lin Feng a hateful look, but then, seeing him covered in bandages, her heart softened again. She asked, "It's past seven now. Are you hungry? Shall I go buy something to eat?"

"Of course, I'm starving..."

"Then what do you want to eat?"

"I'll eat whatever you're eating."

"Alright then, congee and pickles. No take-backs!"

With that, Cao Ying got up, put on a coat, and hurried out of the hospital room. Not long after, she returned with a large bag of things.

Lin Feng saw there was only one container of congee and asked, "Why is there only one? What about you? Are we supposed to share one container? Though I don't mind... having a 'couple's meal' like this would be pretty exciting, right?"

"In your dreams!" Cao Ying waved a plastic spoon in front of Lin Feng and said, "Of course, I ate outside. Here, eat slowly, it's a bit hot..."

As Cao Ying spoke, she handed the spoon over. However, as she did, she suddenly froze. Both of Lin Feng's hands were bandaged. How was he supposed to eat?

"Hehe..."

Lin Feng, knowing this, just grinned foolishly at Cao Ying.

"Sigh, tell me, is it easy being a substitute teacher? Am I paying off a debt from a past life to you or something?"

Sighing helplessly, as there was no other way, Cao Ying could only take back the spoon. She took out the paper container filled with congee and began feeding Lin Feng spoonful by spoonful.

"Mmm, this congee is delicious..."

Cao Ying fed him spoonful by spoonful, and Lin Feng ate mouthful by mouthful. But what annoyed her was that Lin Feng ate very slowly. He'd take a mouthful of congee and actually chew it for a full minute before swallowing. Cao Ying was about to lose her patience.

"Can you eat faster? Even a toothless old lady eats faster than you!" Cao Ying said, annoyed.

"Hehe... I'm a patient right now, you can't compare me like that." Lin Feng grinned foolishly again.

Now, looking at Lin Feng's innocent and harmless smile, Cao Ying was completely speechless and could only sigh softly. Eat, eat all you want. I don't believe you can drag out eating this one bowl of congee until noon!

"Hehe, Teacher Cao, you're so good..." Seeing Cao Ying struggling to suppress her anger, Lin Feng chuckled leisurely.

"Good? Humph, Lin Feng, if you don't do well on the college entrance exams, I... this teacher will strangle you!" Cao Ying shot Lin Feng an incredibly helpless glare.

"Strangle me? Would you have the heart to..."

"Hurry up and eat! You talk too much. Someone's feeding you and you're really acting like a young master!"

Without giving him a chance to argue, Cao Ying shoved a spoonful of congee directly into Lin Feng's mouth.

"Mmm... Mmm... You're trying to murder your own husband..." Lin Feng, unable to move his hands, cried out, choking.

CREAK!

The door of the hospital room swung open.

A middle-aged woman walked in. The moment she stepped into the hospital room and saw Cao Ying feeding Lin Feng, the two of them flirting and teasing, she first paused in surprise, then cleared her throat twice and walked in.

"Mom? Why are you here?!"

The woman who walked in was none other than Lin Feng's mother, Jiang Xiuyun. Lin Feng was greatly surprised to see his mom. Hearing Lin Feng call out "Mom", Cao Ying was also embarrassed and quickly stood up from the hospital bed, moving to sit on a chair to the side.

"You rotten kid, you got into a fight again, didn't you?"

Jiang Xiuyun was carrying some nutritional supplements. After putting them down, she started to reprimand Lin Feng. Lin Feng used to get into fights from time to time, but this was the worst.

Fortunately, with Cao Ying present, Jiang Xiuyun didn't criticize Lin Feng too harshly.

"Son, is this your girlfriend? Your mom is here, why haven't you introduced her to me yet?"

Pausing, Jiang Xiuyun looked at Cao Ying, and her eyes immediately lit up. What a great beauty! She was overjoyed.

"Huh?" Lin Feng was taken aback.

"Auntie... er, Big Sister, I'm not Lin Feng's... girlfriend. I'm his English teacher." Cao Ying, standing nearby, had long since turned beet red. She had originally wanted to call Jiang Xiuyun "Auntie," but then felt the generation was wrong and immediately changed it, also taking the chance to clarify her relationship with Lin Feng.

"English teacher?"

Jiang Xiuyun didn't believe it. Where could you find such a young English teacher? Besides, when I came in just now, did you think your old lady was a fool? I saw you feeding him and flirting...

Hmph, a new trick to deceive parents... they've even learned to impersonate teachers. Kids these days...

Sighing inwardly, Jiang Xiuyun's face, however, was all smiles. She didn't "expose" Cao Ying's lie. She turned to Lin Feng and said, "Son, you don't need to be so secretive. If you have a girlfriend, you have a girlfriend. Your mom said before, if you can score 500 on the monthly exam, I'll let you date and even give you dating funds. Last monthly exam, you really surprised your mom! Indeed, the power of love is limitless; you actually scored so high!"
