As soon as Cao Tiannan mentioned Tang Rou, Lin Feng felt very awkward. Although he believed Cao Tiannan, as a fellow man, should understand some of his hidden desires, Cao Tiannan was, after all, Cao Ying's elder and was unlikely to approve of his actions.
Did Cao Tiannan want him to cut ties with Cao Ying? Lin Feng couldn't help but think of the clichéd scenes in melodramatic love stories, where poor boys coveted by rich girls or Cinderellas brought home by the wealthy inevitably receive a large check from the wealthy parents, with the understanding that they will walk away once they promise to break things off.
Lin Feng glanced at the stern-faced Mayor Cao and speculated facetiously. He probably wouldn't offer me a large check, but given his status, arranging a temporary position in some municipal department shouldn't be difficult. He wouldn't use that as a condition, would he?
"What does Uncle Cao want me to do?" Lin Feng managed to ask with a calm face.
