“Xiaotao, come down and have breakfast.”

As soon as Yin Tao went downstairs, she saw Grandpa Feng and Feng Jing at the dining table, but she didn’t see Feng Ya, who had agreed to go out with her. “Grandpa, why did you prepare so much breakfast for me?” Yin Tao asked curiously as she looked at the breakfast in front of her. It was enough for three people.

“Ah Jing told me that you have a bigger appetite than most girls. I was afraid that you wouldn’t be full, so I instructed the kitchen to prepare a larger portion.”

Old Master Feng looked at Yin Tao with an exceptionally benevolent gaze. No matter what the reason was, the joy of Feng Jing bringing a girl home was enough to last him for a while.

Yin Tao thanked Grandpa Feng and smiled awkwardly. She turned around and glared at Feng Jing, who was clearly an amused bystander. By saying that she had a good appetite, he actually meant that she was a glutton.

“Why isn’t Auntie here for breakfast?” Yin Tao asked Feng Jing in confusion when she saw that Feng Ya hadn’t appeared.

“She doesn’t have a regular schedule. Xiaotao, you don’t have to worry about her.”

Hearing Yin Tao ask about Feng Ya, Old Master Feng couldn’t help but say, “Get Ah Jing to accompany you out for a walk after breakfast. You guys usually work too hard, so you should go out and have some fun, just like other young people.”

Yin Tao was just about to explain that she had already arranged a time to go for a walk with Feng Ya when she heard Feng Jing interrupt, “Alright, Grandpa, didn’t you ask Grandpa Xia to play chess with you later? I’ll take good care of Xiaotao. Don’t worry.”

“If you knew how to take care of people, would you still be single?”

Old Master Feng glanced at Feng Jing and shook his head helplessly. He said regretfully, “It’s really a pity about our Feng family’s genes. You are clearly good looking, but you haven’t even had a girlfriend at your age!”

Feng Jing looked at Yin Tao who was holding back her laughter and coughed unnaturally. “Grandpa, can you stop talking about me like that? There are others around. You know that I’m not young anymore. Can you save me some face?”

“You still know how to care about your face! Xiaotao is not an outsider. What’s wrong with you?”

Grandpa Feng looked at Yin Tao, who was smiling, and couldn’t help but ask, “Xiaotao, do you think Feng Jing is the type you young ladies like? Why hasn’t he gotten a girlfriend for so many years?”

Yin Tao was originally watching Feng Jing as a joke, but she was momentarily stunned when she was suddenly asked by Grandpa Feng. She slowly replied, “Grandpa, Brother Feng is quite fine. Many girls in our police station like him.” “Is that so?” When Old Master Feng heard what Yin Tao said, he was clearly a little pleased. “What about you? What do you think of Ah Jing?”

“Grandpa…” Feng Jing sighed helplessly when he heard the Old Master ask Yin Tao.

“I’m asking Xiaotao. Shut up!” The Old Master was very dissatisfied with Feng Jing’s interruption. He frowned and turned to look at Yin Tao with a much kinder expression.

“Xiaotao, I just want to know why Ah Jing can’t find a girlfriend. He always says that there’s no suitable candidate. I just want to know what kind of boys young ladies like these days. What’s wrong with our Ah Jing?”

Yin Tao hesitated, not knowing how to answer. She couldn’t tell Grandpa Feng the truth, which was that Feng Jing wasn’t lacking in any way, but he had turned down all propositions.

If she did so, Old Master Feng wouldn’t be in a good mood and Feng Jing would probably be scolded too.

“Perhaps Brother Feng is too aloof…” Yin Tao glanced at Feng Jing uneasily. However, he didn’t seem to notice her embarrassment. Instead, he lowered his head and seemed to be listening to her answer seriously.

“Aloof?” Old Master Feng repeated Yin Tao’s words, but he didn’t seem to completely understand.

“It’s just that he looks too serious. Brother Feng is also the captain of the police station. Everyone respects him and is a little afraid of him.” Yin Tao saw that Grandpa Feng wasn’t too upset and finally heaved a sigh of relief.

“Xiaotao, don’t be afraid of him. Ah Jing is usually a little serious, but he actually has a good temper.”

Old Master Feng seemed to be worried that Yin Tao would be too distant from Feng Jing and continued, “If he dares to be fierce to you in the future, come and look for me directly. I can make him behave.”

“Grandpa, go look for Grandpa Xia to play chess after you’re done eating. Otherwise, he’ll be anxious from waiting.” Feng Jing urged Old Master Feng to leave. If he stayed any longer, Old Master Feng might expose more of his shortcomings..
