The middle-aged woman's statement left everyone present stunned, and Su Ya herself was completely frozen in place, staring at the middle-aged woman, too shocked to speak.
Su Ya really hadn't expected the middle-aged woman to say such a thing at this time; it was incredibly unbelievable.
But despite her surprise, Su Ya's thoughts were relatively clear.
The attitude of the middle-aged woman had clearly undergone such a dramatic change only after Chen Feng had whispered something in her ear.
Therefore, all of this was definitely related to Chen Feng; he had helped her.
With this in mind, Su Ya looked towards Chen Feng with a pair of beautiful, curious eyes, because she really wanted to know what exactly Chen Feng had said to the middle-aged woman.
Meanwhile, the passengers in the bus began to discuss animatedly, each of them staring at the middle-aged woman with surprise and confusion in their eyes.
Feeling the questioning gazes of the people around her, the middle-aged woman didn't dare to face them and could only bow her head slightly, asking Chen Feng in a soft voice, "Are you satisfied now?"
"Not bad! Since that's the case, I'll give you a chance to make amends; just return all the money you've cheated people out of before, and apologize to those you deceived. I can let this matter go, otherwise, you should be clear about the consequences!" Chen Feng said indifferently.
"Don't be too excessive; I've already admitted she's not a thief, why should we even return the money obtained previously?" the middle-aged woman said with reluctance.
"Not returning it, huh? Fine then, let's have the police help you return it. I think for swindling so much money, you should be enough for a sentence!" Chen Feng said, as he was about to continue dialing the police.
"Kid, you're ruthless... I'll return it!" The middle-aged woman clenched her teeth and, feeling compelled and helpless, agreed for the time being.
After all, the bus was still in motion, and she was trapped as if in a jar, with no means of escape, so she could only agree first and deal with it later if necessary.
"I hope you'll keep your word!" Chen Feng said lightly.
Having said that, Chen Feng immediately left the middle-aged woman and walked away.
Seeing this, Su Ya wanted to follow and ask for clarity.
But because the bus was too crowded and packed with people, and as a girl she didn't have much strength, she simply couldn't push through and could only watch Chen Feng get farther and farther away.
With no other choice, Su Ya pouted helplessly; she would have to wait until she got off the bus later to ask...
Soon, the bus arrived at a stop near Lin's Jewelry Company, and Chen Feng, seeing this, got off the bus.
Upon seeing Chen Feng get off, Su Ya hurriedly squeezed her way toward the door.
However, there were too many people getting off, and by the time she managed to disembark, she found that Chen Feng had vanished without a trace.
After looking around for a while and not finding Chen Feng, Su Ya felt somewhat disappointed.
Resigned, she had no choice but to return to the bus and began her journey to school...
After getting off, Chen Feng, feeling pressed for time, hurried towards Lin's Jewelry Company without looking back.
Luckily the bus stop was not too far from Fenglei Building, where Lin's Jewelry Company was located, so it only took Chen Feng about ten minutes to reach the entrance of Fenglei Building.
At this moment, parked in front of the entrance of Fenglei Building, was a red Maserati sedan, its luxurious appearance drawing the eyes of many passing by.
As Chen Feng passed by the Maserati, he also subconsciously glanced at it.
```
Just then, the driver's side window of the Maserati lowered, and following that, an exquisitely beautiful and sexy face appeared from inside the car.
Chen Feng was momentarily stunned upon seeing this, for he was extremely familiar with that stunning face—it was none other than the CEO of Lin's Jewelry Company, Lin Wanqing.
"Director Lin!" Chen Feng immediately halted in his tracks, turned around to look at Lin Wanqing, and greeted her with a smile.
"Get in," Lin Wanqing said with a slight smile in return.
"Okay, sure!" Chen Feng nodded, quickly stepped forward, opened the passenger door, and got in.
Inside the car, Lin Wanqing wasn't dressed in her usual work attire that day, but was wearing a loose-fitting white casual outfit instead.
And her wine-red long hair was also tied up behind her head with a pearl hairband, giving her an extra touch of charm.
At this moment, Lin Wanqing did not at all resemble the CEO of a listed company; she seemed more like a gentle and soft homely woman, tender and clingy.
After getting in the car, Chen Feng stared at Lin Wanqing for quite a while, for she looked irresistibly enchanting in this appearance.
At that moment, even Chen Feng couldn't help but think how nice it would have been if his grandfather had arranged for him to marry Lin Wanqing instead.
Of course, that wasn't to say Lin Mengyao was not good enough; Lin Mengyao's beauty was not inferior to Lin Wanqing's, but her personality was too aloof and prideful, making her quite difficult to approach.
But Lin Wanqing was different. She was educated, understanding, and gentle. Chen Feng imagined they would get along very harmoniously if they were to spend more time together, which would make his task much easier and allow him to return to the military sooner.
Alas, all these were mere fantasies; reality could not be changed.
Seeing Chen Feng staring blankly at her, Lin Wanqing smiled slightly and waved her hand in front of his eyes, softly asking, "Didn't you sleep well last night? Why are you spacing out?"
"Uh, no, I'm fine!" Chen Feng shook his head.
"Then let's go, or we'll be late!" Lin Wanqing said with a smile.
"Okay!" Chen Feng nodded, then stretched out his hand to pull over the seat belt and buckled it across himself.
Seeing this, Lin Wanqing started the car and drove Chen Feng toward the school where Lin Mengyao was studying…
Coastal High School, as one of the top high-class schools in Coastal City, had the most complete on-site facilities and highly qualified teachers. Hence, even nationally, Coastal High School was well-renowned and considered a key school of significance.
Naturally, the students at this key school were not just diligent students but also included many who were admitted through connections or were rich second-generation kids and wealthy heirs.
And Lin Mengyao was attending high school there; however, she was not admitted through money or connections but by her own abilities.
Lin Wanqing drove Chen Feng and stopped not far from the entrance of Coastal High School on the roadside.
After turning off the engine, Lin Wanqing took out a file bag from the storage box in front of the driver's seat, handed it to Chen Feng, and explained, "These are the personal documents I've prepared for you; you'll need a new identity to attend school, as your grandfather instructed. I've already arranged everything for you in the school; just take these documents and go straight to the principal!"
"Uh, okay!" Chen Feng took the file bag and nodded, then said, "It's getting late, I better go now!"
With that, Chen Feng pushed open the car door and stepped out.
"Chen Feng, you've got to do your best!" Lin Wanqing called out to Chen Feng, raised her little fist, and encouraged him with a smile.
"Okay!" Chen Feng replied with a grin, then turned around and walked toward the school entrance…
