Chapter 92

Thank you to "Marsh Fish 123" and "Wisdom Grandpa" for your generous donations! I'm asking for recommendations and favorites!!!

"Are you sure you didn't hear wrong or pick up the wrong one?" Ji Feng glanced at the champion's wish that Jin Bingli had just delivered, along with the detailed profiles of the two individuals, feeling somewhat incredulous. When did going on a date with him become someone else's wish?

Jin Bingli chuckled inwardly and shook his head. "Boss, these are their own words, and they have confirmed that this is their wish."

Ji Feng took a deep breath, feeling a bit conflicted as he patted his forehead. He picked up a cigarette from the box on the table, and Jin Bingli quickly lit it for him. Sitting in the comfortable rocking chair, Ji Feng flipped through the profiles of the two girls.

Both were college students from Japan, both 21 years old and in their third year of university. Their family backgrounds were decent, and they were quite attractive. If he were to go on a date with such women, it wouldn't be too unpleasant for Ji Feng. However, something about this situation felt off. Why would they want to go on a date with him out of the blue? And the location was a yacht, with only Ji Feng accompanying them.

Damn, if I, weighing over 100 kilograms, go up there, with your small frames, how could you possibly escape if I wanted to do something?

Such a blatant temptation placed before Ji Feng made him feel a bit uneasy. It had been a long time since he had been with a woman, and Xu Xian had even suggested a few times that he should go out and find some "wild food." But ordinary women didn't interest him. These two, though Japanese, were at least fresh and vibrant, and they had won the amateur women's beach volleyball championship. They must have worked hard to get this opportunity to date him.

Ji Feng felt a bit guilty about disappointing them, but if he went, what would that make him?

Seeing Ji Feng's conflicted expression, Jin Bingli was anxious on his behalf. What was there to be hesitant about? It's just meeting two beautiful women. Are you afraid they'll eat you? Even if they did, it wouldn't be a big deal. Men, after all, are supposed to be a bit promiscuous. Your wife is several months pregnant, and you must be feeling quite pent up. Going out to relax a bit would be good for your health.

However, he didn't dare say this out loud, fearing that Ji Feng might misunderstand him.

After much deliberation, Ji Feng shook his head and threw the file back. "I've decided not to give them this opportunity. Let them change their request. At worst, I can grant them special permission to immigrate here."

Jin Bingli felt a bit sorry for Ji Feng but agreed and reported other matters before leaving with the file.

But just as he turned around, he saw Xu Xian, who was heavily pregnant, walking over. He greeted her immediately. "Madam, good afternoon. You look very well."

Xu Xian nodded and smiled at him. Seeing the file in his hand, she asked, "Mayor Jin, I heard the champion has been announced. Have their requests been made?"

Ji Feng's heart skipped a beat. Xu Xian's question clearly indicated that someone had reported to her. He couldn't help but smile bitterly. These two were really asking for trouble.

Jin Bingli was taken aback, glancing at Ji Feng before responding, "Yes, Madam, but we still need to confirm the details with them."

Xu Xian playfully glanced at the file in his hand, nodded lightly, and let Jin Bingli go. Seeing him leave as if he were escaping, she felt a sense of relief.

She could accept Ji Feng occasionally going out to "hunt," but she absolutely wouldn't allow him to have a long-term mistress, and even if he did, it would have to be with her approval. Given Ji Feng's current status, who knew what those women might want from him? If one of them took her place, it would be embarrassing. Although Xu Xian didn't particularly cherish her position, being replaced was a different matter. It would make her look incompetent.

Ji Feng helped Xu Xian sit in the rocking chair next to him, took a cold drink from the portable mini-fridge, and handed it to her with a smile. "Why didn't you sleep a bit more? It's still quite hot outside." In front of him was a fishing rod, the other end dangling in the Jeju Lake.

Xu Xian seemed to have fallen in love with this place, where there were fewer people to disturb them, and their life was peaceful and leisurely.

Smiling, she took the cold drink from Ji Feng. "OPPA, are you really not going to reconsider? They are two young and beautiful college students, and champions at that. It's fine, I'm very generous. If they want you, go and satisfy them."

Hearing the醋意 (jealousy) in her words, Ji Feng laughed heartily. "Wife, I thought you wouldn't be jealous. It turns out you do care about me. This makes me feel much better. It seems you really love me."

Xu Xian playfully glared at Ji Feng and huffed. "Don't get too full of yourself. There are plenty of people who love you, and it won't make a difference if I'm one of them."

Ji Feng held Xu Xian's hand and said happily, "I don't care about others. As long as you love me, that's enough."

Xu Xian felt a warm glow in her heart, her face beaming with happiness. She hooked her finger at Ji Feng, and when he leaned in, she gave him a sweet kiss. "Being married to OPPA is my happiness."

Tourists a hundred meters away, though they didn't know what the couple was saying, occasionally took out their cameras to secretly snap photos of them. Seeing the couple happily cuddling, many young couples felt envious.

Ji Feng had gradually gotten used to such偷拍 (sneaky photography) over the past few days. As long as it wasn't malicious, he didn't mind, considering it a favor to the tourists. Real paparazzi couldn't get in; entering Jeju Lake required a special inspection process, and the dozens of police officers were not just for show. Since Ji Feng and Xu Xian arrived, the security level had been increased, even though Ji Feng had never requested it. Xu Qiang and Jin Bingli had taken care of it without him having to ask.

Of course, there were also the dozen professional bodyguards hired for Xu Xian. Under their watchful eyes, it would be extremely difficult for anyone to have any ideas about Xu Xian and Ji Feng.

In the evening, as Ji Feng and Xu Xian returned to their hotel, Kim Tae-hee approached with a thick file.

Placing the file in front of Ji Feng, he bowed and reported, "Boss, this is a list of recent invitations to meet you. They come from government representatives or ambassadors from 23 countries, including China, the United States, South Korea, Japan, Singapore, Indonesia, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Switzerland."

"Additionally, a man named Hu Ke, who claims to be your cousin, has been waiting in the hotel for a week," Kim Tae-hee added cautiously.

Xu Xian had gone to the bedroom to change and take a shower, so she wasn't there. However, the secretaries knew that Ji Feng rarely kept anything from Xu Xian.

Ji Feng's hand paused as he was about to open the file. He looked at Kim Tae-hee with surprise. "Who did you say? Hu Ke? Do you have a photo of him?"

Kim Tae-hee immediately took out his phone, found a photo, and showed it to Ji Feng.

Looking at the face on the screen, Ji Feng's initial doubts were confirmed. Damn, it's really him. But why is he here?

The memory of his aunt, who had always been at odds with his grandfather, brought back painful memories. Her rebelliousness had even caused his grandfather to be hospitalized several times, and they eventually severed their father-daughter relationship.

His father, though he hated his sister, was still her only sibling. Their relationship had deteriorated due to his father's attempts to mediate, and after his parents' death, when Ji Feng sought help from his aunt, he was turned away and disowned. This had made Ji Feng decide to cut ties with her.

But what was the situation now? Did she hear he had become the island's owner and wanted a share? Hmph, that's definitely her style. She always avoids trouble but jumps at the chance for a benefit.

Taking a deep breath, Ji Feng asked Kim Tae-hee to bring Hu Ke to the reception room. Since he had come, it would be wrong not to meet him. At the very least, he should hear what he had to say.

A few minutes later, Ji Feng told Xu Xian and went downstairs. As he entered the reception room, he saw his 19-year-old cousin, Hu Ke, sitting with his legs crossed and smoking a cigar. "Hu Ke, it's really you. What brings you here? How are Aunt and Uncle?"

No matter what, they were family, and Ji Feng couldn't bring himself to be cold, despite the fact that Hu Ke had once looked down on him for being from the countryside, considering it a disgrace to have him as a relative.

"Brother Feng, I'm so glad to see you. I thought the news on the internet and TV was just a rumor, but it turns out you've really made it. Congratulations, congratulations," Hu Ke said, standing up excitedly and trying to hug Ji Feng.

Suppressing his annoyance, Ji Feng hugged Hu Ke and smiled. "Thank you. It's all thanks to what my father left me. I couldn't have done it on my own. By the way, what brings you here? Are you on a trip or is there something else?"

Hu Ke grabbed Ji Feng's hand, as if they were the best of friends, and smiled. "I saw online that Brother Feng has made it big, so I came to see you and have a good time. My mom said that since it's Grandpa's inheritance, I should get a share too."

Ji Feng's forehead was covered in black lines. He thought, "How direct. He's really here for that." Pulling his hand away from Hu Ke, Ji Feng's smile faded, and he looked at him coldly. "It's shameful that your mother would say such things. She was the one who severed ties with my grandfather. She wanted freedom, and she got it. I'm sorry, but the inheritance is from my parents, and I am their only heir. If you don't understand, you can ask the lawyer from back then. Does your mother remember how the court ruled when I was 17?"

Hu Ke stood up angrily, his eyes red with fury. "Ji Feng, you need to have a conscience. This is clearly Grandpa's inheritance, so why did it go to your father? You have to give me half, or we'll see each other in court. If I don't get what I want, neither will you."

Ji Feng shook his head sadly. "If you need money, I can give you some, but only once. As for the inheritance, forget it. I'll take it to the international court if I have to, and I won't recognize you as my cousin then."

Hu Ke grabbed Ji Feng's collar, his eyes flashing with a terrifying light, as if Ji Feng had slept with his wife. "Ji Feng, don't push your luck. If it weren't for my mom, you would still be in the countryside. So do as I say, or you'll see the consequences."

Seeing Hu Ke's threatening gaze and the way he grabbed his collar, Ji Feng's last bit of hope vanished. He grabbed Hu Ke's wrists and threw him several meters away.

Looking at the frightened Hu Ke on the ground, Ji Feng said coldly, "I hate it when you call me 'little country bumpkin.' If it weren't for your mother, I would have beaten you up a hundred times. Get out, and don't come back here, or I'll have you thrown into the sea to feed the fish."

The mention of "little country bumpkin" stirred up deep-seated resentment in Ji Feng. Suppressing the urge to beat Hu Ke, he scolded him and left the reception room without another word. How could he have such a despicable cousin? His father was just a minor official, yet he acted as if he were the best and everyone else was a bumpkin.

(A true story from a friend. I went to comfort him last night. Last year, his wife wanted a divorce and they separated, but the divorce wasn't finalized. Last month, his wife came back, and the family was overjoyed. They bought her all sorts of jewelry to please her, hoping they wouldn't divorce. Soon, his wife felt unwell and went to the hospital, where she discovered she was pregnant. (He hadn't been with her for a year.) Now they are divorced. Sigh, cherish the people around you.)
