Lin Yunxiao glanced at Li Xiaoke, who had slumped onto the table, almost dozing off, and whispered:
"It's all because of Xiaoke's scoundrel of a father! Li Ruhai is truly despicable! For years, he's neglected Xiaoke entirely! Now, he's scheming to claim her back, but he has ulterior motives."
"How so?" Lin Feng inquired.
"I'm not entirely sure! All I know is that Li Ruhai arranged a marriage for her, and the groom is over forty!"
"Good heavens... Xiaoke is just eighteen, barely a freshman in college! And Li Ruhai wants to marry her off to an old man! It's utterly revolting!"
"Of course, Xiaoke is extremely unwilling, but her mother also came to persuade her, which made her even more distressed. That's why she called me out for a drink."
Lin Yunxiao continued, rubbing her cheeks and somewhat dazedly adding:
"It's my first time drinking beer, and it tastes awful. If not for accompanying Xiaoke, I wouldn't have been able to drink a drop."
Lin Feng was momentarily at a loss for words.
He had dealt with Li Ruhai twice before, and he was indeed a scoundrel. But, Li Ruhai was still Xiaoke's biological father. In a sense, it was a family matter...
"Brother... you have to help Xiaoke!"
Lin Yunxiao looked at him with hopeful eyes.
Just as Lin Feng was about to speak, Li Xiaoke suddenly heaved and began vomiting violently.
"Xiaoke! Are you alright..." Lin Yunxiao rushed over, gently patting Xiaoke's back with concern.
Lin Feng's gaze flickered.
Li Xiaoke was a good girl and also his sister's only friend. When his sister was at her lowest, all other friends had abandoned her, but Li Xiaoke had remained steadfast, supporting her.
When his sister had no funds for college, Li Xiaoke even offered to help raise the money.
So, Lin Feng felt compelled to intervene. As long as Xiaoke resisted, even her parents should not be allowed to force her!
At that moment, a young man at the neighboring table abruptly stood up, smashing his beer bottle and shouting angrily:
"What's going on here? You've gotten vomit all over me!"
Seeing this, Lin Yunxiao hurriedly pulled Li Xiaoke behind her brother in fright.
Lin Feng frowned and was about to respond when the owner of the eatery, sensing trouble, quickly came out with a forced smile:
"Hey, hey... Brother Biao, don't be angry, please! There's no need to make a fuss with these kids. How about I cover the cost of this meal?"
Clearly, from the owner's demeanor, Brother Biao must have some considerable background, at least someone of note in this area. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so cautious and conciliatory.
"Scram! Liu Er, this is none of your business. Stop meddling!"
Brother Biao sneered and pushed the owner aside, then turned his gaze toward Lin Yunxiao and Li Xiaoke with a predatory gleam.
In fact, Li Xiaoke hadn't even gotten any vomit on him; he was merely using the pretext to stir trouble!
With Li Xiaoke and Lin Yunxiao being both beautiful and youthful, clearly untouched by the world, Brother Biao couldn't possibly let this opportunity slip by.
