Chapter 405: Chapter 404: Save Gao Zhixiang and Gao Ningning both showed surprise. It seemed to be the first time their grandfather had invited a guest to stay at their house. Gao Zhixiang, looking forward to it, turned to Ye Feng and said, "Yes, boss, it’s rare for my grandpa to invite someone. Why don’t you stay? We’re going to have so much fun today, and then you can stay overnight here. Wouldn’t that be great?" Zhou Biao and the others were also looking forward to it, hoping Ye Feng would agree, and Ye Feng agreed, "Okay, then I’ll impose on you." Gao Tianshou smiled slightly, "Then you young people enjoy yourselves, and I, an old man, will not disturb you." Afterwards, Gao Tianshou left, and at that moment, no one dared to look down on Ye Feng and his friends anymore. Even Old Sir Gao had personally invited them to stay. The others present didn’t receive such treatment, indicating that Old Sir Gao had indeed acknowledged Ye Feng and his friends. If they were to oppose Ye Feng now, it would be disrespectful to Old Sir Gao. As time passed, Ye Feng and his friends enjoyed their drinks and conversation, the time flying by quickly until it was two in the morning. Zhou Biao and the others were all drunk and had to be carried back, and Ye Feng also returned to his guest room. After washing up, he was ready to go to sleep, but at that moment, he heard footsteps outside his room. "Knock, knock, knock ~~" Ye Feng’s door was knocked, and Ye Feng said, "The door isn’t locked, come in." The door opened, and in walked Gao Ningning. Seeing that it was Gao Ningning, Ye Feng showed a look of surprise and curiously asked, "Ningning, it’s you. What brings you here so late? Is something the matter?" Gao Ningning nodded and looked at Ye Feng, her eyes brimming with emotion and her demeanor very shy. Seeing Gao Ningning like this, Ye Feng thought to himself, "Could it be..." Ye Feng had some ideas but he wasn’t sure, especially since it was so late and Gao Ningning had suddenly come looking for him, and in such a shy manner, which made it difficult to think in any simple direction. Gao Ningning spoke to Ye Feng, "Ye Feng, thank you for your gift today. I really liked it, thank you!" Ye Feng shook his head, "Don’t mention it. It’s normal to give a gift for a birthday, isn’t it?" Gao Ningning looked at Ye Feng and said, "Ye Feng, can you answer me a question seriously?" Ye Feng, still with a calm face, looked at Gao Ningning and said, "Go ahead..." Gao Ningning asked, "Ye Feng, tell me, do you like me?" Ye Feng’s body jolted, and then his face showed a look of helplessness as he thought to himself, "Just as I expected..." Clearly, his previous kindness towards Gao Ningning and the things he had done for her had led to a misunderstanding. Ye Feng shook his head, "No, you’ve misunderstood. I might like you, but only as a friend, like a friendship. There are no other feelings; don’t get it wrong." "Is that so?" After hearing Ye Feng’s reply, Gao Ningning’s expression suddenly turned ugly. Gao Ningning was clearly very disappointed with Ye Feng’s answer; she had thought Ye Feng liked her. Gao Ningning, feeling very unwilling, bit her lip and boldly said, "Okay, Ye Feng, since you say you don’t like me and I misunderstood, I must tell you... I think... I think I’ve fallen for you! Can... can... can you be my boyfriend?" After Gao Ningning finished speaking, she immediately felt as if her heart was about to jump out of her chest, her face blushing deeply. Although Gao Ningning was usually very cheerful, this was the first time she had ever taken the initiative to confess to a boy. Even for Gao Ningning, the embarrassment was immense; her cheeks were red and glowing, as enticing as a ripe apple, making her extraordinarily attractive. If it had been anyone else, they would have immediately agreed, but Ye Feng was different; he felt more and more helpless and couldn’t bear it. Ye Feng said, "Ningning, it’s impossible between us, do you understand?" "What!" In an instant, Gao Ningning was stunned, feeling a massive blow to her self-esteem. After all, she was the precious daughter of the Gao Family, the belle of Longdu University, and the proud daughter of Longdu. Countless people dreamt of being with her. If it had been anyone else, receiving a confession from Gao Ningning would likely make them excitedly agree instantly, but Ye Feng had rejected her and told her that a relationship between them was impossible. This was something Gao Ningning found very hard to accept and was entirely different from what she had imagined. "Why! Why is it impossible? Tell me!" Gao Ningning was unwilling to give up and wanted to know the reason. Ye Feng, looking helpless, said, "Ningning, I’m already married; I have a wife." "What!" Hearing Ye Feng’s words, Gao Ningning felt as if struck by a bolt of lightning, her expression completely freezing, finding it incredibly hard to accept. "You said you have a wife?" Gao Ningning’s face was pale, feeling that this reason was unacceptable. Ye Feng nodded and said, "Yes, I’m already married, and I love my wife very much!" "That’s not possible!" Gao Ningning became extremely emotional and unstable, "If you have a wife, why then are you so nice to me? Tell me, we’ve only known each other for a short while, why are you so nice to me? The first time we met, you were concerned about me, worried I might get hurt in the restaurant. Today, you even gave me such a precious gift. We’ve only known each other for a few days; if you didn’t have feelings for me, why would you do so many things that are easy to be misunderstood?" Gao Ningning loudly questioned Ye Feng, who didn’t know what to say, "There are reasons for what I did." "What reasons, tell me, tell me why!" Gao Ningning wouldn’t let it go, staring at Ye Feng pressing for an answer. Ye Feng, looking helpless, said, "Just don’t ask, what I did wasn’t because I liked you." "No! Ye Feng, if you don’t tell me, I... I won’t leave tonight. I will also tell your wife, I need her to know that you’re flirting around outside, causing misunderstandings!" Gao Ningning became agitated.
