Extreme Almightiest Young Master-Chapter 2203 - 2185: The Father Changed

After finishing his words, the middle-aged man turned around and was about to leave, but at this moment, the little girl anxiously said, "You can’t take it, if you take it, there will be nothing left after a few days. We won’t have any rice or flour at home, you can’t take it..."

As she spoke, the little girl was about to snatch it back, tears streaming down her eyes. She had been hungry for many days; this piece of gold was enough to keep her well-fed for a year. If it was taken away, she would have nothing left and would have to continue starving...

But how could a little girl be a match for the middle-aged man? Seeing the girl coming to snatch, the man’s eyes immediately turned red, he raised his foot ready to kick her, but just as he was about to make a move, Lin Feng’s voice rang out.

"Hold on, that gold is given to the little girl by me, what right do you have to take it away?" Lin Feng’s voice was calm, yet it contained a special authority. He figured this middle-aged man should be the girl’s family, though such a family member made him somewhat angry.

"What right do I have to take it? Just by being her father, just by raising her to this age, is that not enough?" Upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, the middle-aged man immediately became dissatisfied, yelling towards Lin Feng, and then glared at him, stepping forward ready to leave.

"Don’t go, give it back to me! You’ve drunk and gambled away everything at home, and my mother was starved to death by you! Do you want me to starve to death as well? A few days ago, you ran off with all my money, I’ve been hungry for days..." Tears poured down like rain from the little girl’s eyes; she was truly anxious. How did she end up with this kind of father? If it weren’t for this father, she wouldn’t be out working, just trying not to starve to death.

Upon hearing the little girl’s words, Lin Feng felt utter contempt for the middle-aged man, and coldly said: "As a father, you treat them like this?"

"How I do things is none of your business, this is how I am, what can you do about it? Considering you’re wealthy, I’ll let it go, or I would beat you to death!" Upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, the middle-aged man became aggressive, speaking to Lin Feng with hostility, showing no sign of remorse, as if he could do whatever he wanted, believing no one in the world could control him.

Hearing such words, Lin Feng shook his head, raising his hand and pointing at the middle-aged man, who then stood still in place, motionless as if he were a stone statue!

The little girl was immediately stunned upon seeing this, her eyes widened, not knowing what Lin Feng had done to her father, she cried out, "Mr., what happened to my father... what’s wrong with my father?"

"Nothing’s wrong, he’s fine. Let him calm down for a while, once he calms down, he’ll become your good father again!" Lin Feng said gently, touching the little girl’s head, feeling a pang of emotion in his heart. The little girl was a good girl originally, but having met such a father, it turned into a disaster. If it weren’t for him, the little girl’s ending would likely be tragic, either starving to death or sold to places like Spring Red Building by this rogue of a father.

"Mr., is what you said really true?"

Upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, the little girl froze in place, almost unable to believe her ears. Her father used to be quite good when she was young, but later on, he inexplicably became addicted to gambling, selling off everything at home. There was no money for her mother to see a doctor when she got sick, even no food at home. In the end, her mother gave all the food to her, then starved to death, yet even that didn’t make her father have a change of heart.

So when Lin Feng said those words, she really hoped her father could turn back to his old good self, so life could be hopeful again. Otherwise, she might end up starving to death as well! But these were just hopes, unlikely to come true. If her father could really repent, she wouldn’t have to come out to work for meals, despite the low wages she could at least get enough to eat. Yet her father kept coming to steal her money...

"What I say is true," Lin Feng said lovingly, touching her head, "once your father gets better, use this gold to buy some things for the house, and then start some small business—it should be still possible to make ends meet."

"I wish..." Hearing Lin Feng’s words, tears flowed uncontrollably down the little girl’s face, her large eyes filled with sorrowful expression. What Lin Feng described was exactly what she yearned for, yet it seemed so out of reach...

Just as they were speaking, the middle-aged man suddenly trembled and woke up. However, after waking, the man’s face was also covered in tears, instantly looking like a changed person, with none of the previous brutish aura, instead emanating a sense of kindness.

The little girl saw this and was stunned immediately, not understanding what had happened...

The middle-aged man turned to look at the little girl, his face full of guilt, walked over to the girl, holding her tightly in his arms, softly said, "Child, I’ve let you suffer. From today onwards, I won’t let you suffer anymore. Come, let’s go home with father! From now, we’ll rely on each other, I want you to grow up happily..."

As he spoke, tears streamed down like rain on the middle-aged man’s face, leaving the little girl bewildered, not comprehending how her father had become like this. Yet she remembered Lin Feng’s words and her innocent eyes looked at Lin Feng, thinking how what the gentleman said turned out to be true, wondering if her father had really gotten better?

Looking at the girl’s puzzled expression, Lin Feng nodded and just smiled, saying nothing. To teach someone a skill is better than to give them a fish. Only by fundamentally solving the problem will the girl have a good ending, and such an ending is precisely what he wants to see. It was worth his intervention.

At this moment, the middle-aged man led the girl to Lin Feng, knelt down with a thud, and kowtowed to Lin Feng, then expressed deep gratitude, saying, "Thank you, Immortal, for your enlightenment. I now know what to do. I will certainly be a good father and raise my daughter to adulthood!"

"Get up, be good to your daughter, being a father requires responsibility. Otherwise, it is unworthy to be a father, and Heaven will not tolerate it." Lin Feng did not stop the middle-aged man from kowtowing and blandly said a few words, then told him, "You should go back now."

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man got up, bowed to Lin Feng, and left. However, he looked completely different from when he entered, with his eyes full of affection as he looked at the girl...

Lin Feng watched father and daughter leave, smiled, nodded, then picked up the tea the girl had brewed for him and drank it cheerfully, casually watching the people on the street go back and forth.

Soon, the group of women came downstairs, each had changed into beautiful outfits. I must say, these completely traditional outfits indeed have a unique charm. When the women put on these clothes, their aura immediately changed, losing a sense of the ordinary, gaining a hint of fairy-like grace, even causing Lin Feng’s eyes to brighten.

"Master, where is Xiao Mei?" Xiaohong at this time noticed the girl was missing, and asked Lin Feng. There were only the two of them in the shop to prevent theft, but now Xiao Mei had disappeared, what’s going on? It shouldn’t be this way according to logic! 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

"Her father came and took her away." Lin Feng heard Xiaohong ask like this and replied with a smile.

"Ah! Her father came, oh no, oh no!" When Xiaohong heard Lin Feng say this, her face changed immediately, saying to Lin Feng and the women, "Xiao Mei’s father is a complete scoundrel who cares nothing about her life and death. I felt sorry for her and introduced her to work at the shop, just so she could have something to eat. I heard days ago that Xiao Mei’s father wanted to sell her to Spring Red Building for reception work. What should we do now, what should we do?"

As Xiaohong spoke, she got more anxious, and seeing her like this, Lin Feng gestured for her to calm down, saying, "It won’t be like that. Xiao Mei’s father just came here, treating her very well, saying he won’t let her work here anymore and will take care of his family properly. If you don’t believe it, you can go see when you have time later."

Upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, Xiaohong was stunned and thought, how can this be? How could that person suddenly become good, treating Xiao Mei so well? But looking at Lin Feng’s demeanor, it didn’t seem like he was lying, and she stood there in a daze, her mind foggy, not understanding what had happened...

"Let’s not talk about Xiao Mei, how much are their clothes?" Seeing Xiaohong like this, Lin Feng didn’t want to waste time here, so he asked.

"One hundred seventy taels of Veined Silver, the madams have chosen the best clothes in our shop, which are slightly expensive..." Xiaohong, hearing Lin Feng ask about the price, returned to her senses and replied awkwardly. The price was indeed too high, but she had no choice, as the shopkeeper set the price, and she could only sell them at this rate.

At this, Lin Feng smiled lightly and casually tossed Xiaohong a twenty-tael piece of gold, saying, "Keep the change."

Saying this, he led the women away, leaving Xiaohong holding a large piece of gold in disbelief, completely unable to comprehend...

After leaving Myriad Outfit Pavilion, Ding Wan’er and the women gathered around Lin Feng.

"What was going on with Xiao Mei just now?" Ding Wan’er asked on behalf of the women, and the others looked at Lin Feng, also wanting to know what happened with Xiao Mei.

"When you entered just now, didn’t you notice the girl in the corner? That was Xiao Mei. As for what happened, here’s what transpired..." Seeing Ding Wan’er and the women curious, Lin Feng recounted the previous events to them.

After listening to Lin Feng, the women understood what happened, but their eyes on Lin Feng were strange, and finally, Ye Xiaoyu asked curiously, "How peculiar, wasn’t that person a scoundrel? How did he suddenly change for the better? Teacher Lin, how did you do it?"

At this point, the other women also looked at Lin Feng, waiting for his answer. They were very curious about how Lin Feng made a bad person turn good. It was too incredible!
