Chapter 1440: Men Understand Men Best

Su Li was initially stunned, then suddenly angered: "Feng Huaijin, don’t tell me you plan to use Yi Yi to attend the lecture, enticing Feng Huaimu to show up and make a move? Are you using your own daughter as bait?"

Su Li’s deep purple eyes stared straight at Feng Huaijin, as if daring him to agree with a single word, after which she would slap him across the face.

Feng Huaijin watched Su Li’s expression change, from calm and composed to suddenly flustered, reaching out quickly to help Su Li sit down: "Don’t overthink it, I won’t."

Su Li was his ancestor, and that one is the treasured jewel he cultivated with great care; he wouldn’t be willing to sacrifice anyone.

Su Li kicked his ankle crossly: "Then what do you mean by that?"

Feng Huaijin chuckled lightly, his tone carrying a touch of certainty: "I just considered it from his perspective. Even if he knows it’s bait, he wouldn’t make a move. Would he hurry to be captured by agents? Plus, it’s at the university, the situation would quickly escalate and force an official response. As long as he’s not stupid, he wouldn’t act rashly."

Su Li was a bit confused by Feng Huaijin’s words, wondering if her dropping IQ was due to her pregnancy.

Feng Huaijin’s lips held a slight smile, raising his hand to pinch Su Li’s cheeks, which had become a bit plump from recent pampering, speaking with an insinuating tone: "You’re worried about Xu Haohao, right? Just wait."

Su Li was perplexed but couldn’t help feeling a bit pleasantly surprised: "Are you saying Haohao might come back? But why?"

Feng Huaijin leisurely caressed Su Li’s abdomen, mumbling about why there hadn’t been any fetal movement yet.

Because a man understands another man best, especially men with women they love.

Seeing Feng Huaijin smiling mysteriously, Su Li couldn’t derive any answers from him and asked frustratedly: "Are you sure Yiyi attending the lecture won’t be a problem? Should we send people there?"

Feng Huaijin’s gentle gaze suddenly turned icy: "I’m going myself."

Su Li was momentarily dazed, but upon seeing Feng Huaijin clenching his molars, she instantly understood.

A father is going to protect his precious girl, given Zhongda University’s formidably high-caliber male students.

Xu Haohao finally got a taste of what it means to feel one’s days drag on endlessly, even being moved to a remote small fishing village by this bastard Feng Huaimu didn’t change that, where she no longer even needed to hire a handyman to fix the water pipes...

Her daily routine became sitting on the sofa, watching the clock in the hall, counting how time passed and how the second hand ticked.

She felt like one day she would be driven mad by this dog of a man.

"Knock, knock, knock——" A knocking sounded at the door, Xu Haohao hugged her legs watching the clock, her voice cold: "You have keys, just open the door yourself."

Yet the knocking didn’t lessen, only grew heavier.

Xu Haohao’s expression gradually changed, like a monkey she darted down, directly opening the door, unexpectedly not encountering Xuan Ting, but seeing an unpretentious middle-aged woman, her face sallow, hands covered in calluses, appearing as a hardworking laboring woman.

"Are you Miss Xu? These are fish my husband and I caught, for you and Young Master Mu to eat. They’re all alive, still lively!" The woman laughed cheerfully, pulling out a red plastic bucket filled with several fish.

Xu Haohao stared at the fish for a few seconds, suddenly a look of wild joy appeared in her eyes, she grabbed the middle-aged woman’s hand excitedly: "Auntie, please help me! I’ll give you money!"
