Chapter 154: [154] Do you think I’m a good match with the young master? _1

Tang Feng could certainly tell this guy was deliberately flattering him in front of Xu Xinling.

One has to admit, this fellow’s timing for ass-kissing was impeccable.

Everyone has their vanities, and he was no exception.

Being lavishly praised in front of a beauty would make anyone a bit light-headed.

Hmm, this Ge Hui has potential; he could be cultivated appropriately in the future.

Although he might not become a good appraiser, he could still be a competent lackey.

Ge Hui offered a few more compliments, which didn’t seem sycophantic or artificial, but rather sincere.

Then he knew when to stop, not lingering or dragging it out.

After he left, Xu Xinling, with a smile, looked at Tang Feng, “Wow, you’re already being called ‘Teacher’? It seems you’re really making waves in the antiques world.”

Tang Feng modestly waved his hand, “Hey, what making waves? I’m still just a newbie; there’s so much more for me to learn.”

The more modest he was, the more enigmatic he seemed.

This immediately piqued Xu Xinling’s curiosity.

This guy was simply full of mysteries.

Setting aside his astonishing luck, his combat abilities were ridiculously high, even she, who had once studied under a master, was no match for him.

That was not all; he was also an appraiser.

And it seemed his appraisal skills were quite formidable.

How many more secrets did he have that she didn’t know about?

For the first time, she was filled with curiosity about a man and wanted to delve deeper.

While the two were engaging in casual conversation, Song Lele also finally arrived.

Today, she donned a unisex attire as usual; a black and white contrasting T-shirt on top, black harem pants below, and a pair of white sneakers.

Paired with her bangs that covered her eyes, she looked very fresh and dashing.

Some of the female staff in the shop were drawn to her.

Song Lele walked in and saw Tang Feng and Xu Xinling in deep conversation, her eyebrows unconsciously furrowed.

“What are you two talking about?” She moved between them, subtly separating them.

“We were talking about…”

Tang Feng was about to reply, but Xu Xinling cut in, “We were discussing the food at the restaurant we ate at noon. It’s cheap but surprisingly good.”

Tang Feng looked at her puzzled. They were clearly talking about antiques appraisal just moments before.

Xu Xinling’s lips curved into a teasing smile, clearly enjoying provoking Song Lele.

Sure enough, Song Lele immediately seemed a bit upset, “You guys had lunch together? Wow, and you didn’t invite me? That’s… not very friendly, is it?”

Xu Xinling’s smile held a hint of mischief, “We’ve been together since this morning; the young master here helped me a lot, so I treated him to lunch. What’s wrong with that?”

“You don’t know, in the restaurant many people mistook us for a couple…”

With that, she intentionally circled around her, sidling up to Tang Feng, “Lele, do you think I and the young master make a good match?”

Song Lele pulled her away, “Xinling, don’t forget you’re a girl. Can you hold yourself with a bit more dignity?”

Xu Xinling pouted, “How am I not dignified…”

She wanted to keep talking but then saw Song Lele looking at her with a threatening expression, and she swallowed the rest of her words.

Only then did Song Lele turn to Tang Feng,” It’s about time, isn’t it? We should get going.”

Tang Feng checked the time; indeed, it was time to leave.

He promptly said goodbye to his master, Zhang Jicheng, and then led the two women out of the door.

His Ferrari only had room for two, but thankfully Song Lele had brought a Porsche Macan, which could comfortably seat three people.

“You go drive.” As soon as Song Lele stepped outside, she tossed the keys to Xu Xinling and pointed to the car parked not far away.

“My driving isn’t that great, you know that,” Xu Xinling pouted unhappily.

“That’s exactly why you need to drive more,” Song Lele said with impeccable logic, leaving no room for argument.

Xu Xinling could only puff up her cheeks in irritation and go drive the car.

After waiting for her to walk a bit further, Song Lele turned to Tang Feng, “Big brother, could you… keep your distance from Xinling in the future?”

“Why?” Tang Feng asked, puzzled.

“Because…” Song Lele stared at him for a long moment, finally gathering the courage to say, “Because I like… her.”

“Hmm?”

Tang Feng’s eyes instantly widened as a lewd image flashed through his mind, of two women, naked, entwined with each other…

Song Lele felt uncomfortable under his gaze, “Aren’t we good brothers? You wouldn’t compete with me for Xinling, right?”

“Of course not,” he replied without hesitation.

Tang Feng shook his head like a rattle-drum, his mind filled with question marks.

Could it be Ale is into women?

No wonder she always liked to dress like a man. So that was her preference?

Such a beautiful woman, but she’s into women…

What a pity!

As the two chatted, Xu Xinling had already driven the car over.

Tang Feng and Song Lele successively got into the back seat.

The car started once again.

True enough, Xu Xinling’s driving skills left much to be desired; she would scream whenever a car came towards them.

It was hard to imagine that this timidly inexperienced driver was the same woman who could knock down a boxing instructor.

Although she drove slowly, it was fortunate that the address Zhou Bingrui had given them wasn’t too far from Ya Garden.

Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of an old quadrangle courtyard.

This courtyard had a clear sense of history; Tang Feng estimated it to be at least two to three hundred years old.

Two stone lions crouched at the entrance, covered in the marks of time.

The vermillion gate was nearly three meters high and looked quite imposing.

This family must have been wealthy in ancient times.

At this moment, the alley outside the courtyard was filled with all sorts of luxury cars, and they had just managed to find a parking space.

They then stepped up to the door and knocked.

The large door was soon cracked open, and a head peeked out from inside.

“Who are you looking for?” The man looked at the three of them warily.

“We’re here to attend the jade gambling event,” Tang Feng said, sensing the man’s demeanor as if they were involved in some clandestine activity.

“Do you have a referral?” The man didn’t immediately let them in but continued to inquire.

“Zhou Bingrui,” Tang Feng reported Mr. Rui’s name.

“Wait a moment.”

After speaking, the man closed the door again.
