Yang Feng looked at the two of them, finding it somewhat amusing. This was decided by their elders, so why were they looking at him so angrily? Besides, he would never like Xia Yumo.
"Guoliang, how could you make such an abrupt decision about something so important?" Lin Ya said, her anger rising.
"Well, it's my fault. I made the decision on a whim while drinking with those two, and it was even said in front of an old general. So now it depends on what Xiaofeng thinks."
Xia Guoliang sighed slightly, turned to look at Lin Ya, and then turned to Yang Feng.
"Dad, I don't want to be engaged to him. Nowadays, it's all about free love. What era are we living in? Why are you still talking about arranged marriages?!" Xia Yumo said anxiously and angrily.
“This…” Xia Guoliang looked at Yang Feng and said slowly, “It depends on Xiao Feng’s wishes. If he is unwilling…”
Xia Yumo turned her head to look at Yang Feng, her beautiful eyes widening slightly, staring at him with anger, her pearly teeth biting her red lips.
Not only her, but Zhou Jianwen next to him stared at him with a fierce look, as if to say, "If you dare to agree, I guarantee you will die a terrible death."

Chapter 22 Food Poisoning
Yang Feng frowned, glanced at Zhou Jianwen, and sensed a murderous intent emanating from him, while Xia Yumo was merely angry.
Immediately, Yang Feng's deep eyes changed, and he looked at Zhou Jianwen like a ferocious beast.
Instantly, Zhou Jianwen's pupils contracted sharply, as if he had seen something terrifying. A cold sweat broke out on his back, and his heart pounded wildly. How could his eyes be so terrifying?!
Do you think I'm easy to bully just because I don't say anything?
Yang Feng's lips curled into a cold smile, then he calmly turned to look at Xia Guoliang, about to speak.
Lin Ya frowned as she looked at Yang Feng and said, "I'm not trying to be mean, but with such poor grades, what kind of life do you expect? What kind of life can you provide for our Xiao Mo? Do you expect her to suffer with you every day? You need to know your place. You're not good enough for our Yu Mo, you know?"
Xia Guoliang nodded in agreement, feigning regret as he said, "Indeed, if Xiaofeng were still the same idealistic young man she was in, we might still consider this marriage. But now... sigh."
"No matter how good your grades are, if you don't have a good life in the future, I will never agree to let my daughter be with you. If my daughter suffers any grievances in the future, I, as her mother, will never let it go. So I advise you not to have any ideas about my daughter in the end."
Lin Ya snorted coldly, her eyes filled with disdain, and continued speaking.
Yang Feng shook his head slightly, somewhat amused, and said that he had never had any thoughts about her daughter, nor did he want to.
"Yeah, brother, why don't you come work for my company after you graduate? Don't worry, I'll give you a good position and good benefits." Zhou Jianwen smiled casually, wiped his mouth with a tissue in a gentlemanly manner, and looked at Yang Feng as he spoke.
Yang Feng sneered, remaining silent as he watched him put on a show. He had absolutely no liking for him; on the surface, he acted friendly and gentle, but he was just showing off to the Xia family.
"unnecessary---"
Hearing his voice, Xia Yumo frowned and looked at Yang Feng with disdain. At this point, he had no chance of having a good life in the future. In her opinion, Zhou Jianwen was already very lucky to have given him a good job. He really didn't know how to cherish the opportunity.
After drinking two sips of the Ganoderma lucidum and licorice soup, Lin Ya suddenly fell backward onto the cold floor, foaming at the mouth, her eyes rolling back, and her body twitching slightly.
Xia Guoliang and the other two were startled and quickly came to his side. The two nannies cooking nearby also became nervous.
"Ya, what's wrong?! How could this happen out of nowhere?" Xia Guoliang was extremely nervous and quickly turned to the nanny behind him, saying, "Call an ambulance immediately."
The two nannies nodded quickly, took out their phones, and promptly called an ambulance.
"Mom!" Xia Yumo didn't know what to do at this moment. If anything happened to her mother, she would probably cry herself to death. Her fair hands tightly grasped Lin Ya's slightly trembling hands, and tears welled up in her beautiful eyes.
Yang Feng also came to their side. With his expert-level medical skills, he naturally understood that she was probably suffering from food poisoning. Turning his head to look at the food on the table, he understood immediately. On Aunt Lin's table was a half-full bowl of Ganoderma lucidum and licorice soup, which meant that she had also eaten the carp.
Carp and licorice should not be eaten together as this can cause poisoning.
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, these two factors combined constitute food poisoning. If not treated properly, it could be fatal.
Now that Yang Feng had acquired medical skills, he wouldn't be so heartless as to ignore them, especially since their family had been kind to them in the past.
"Daddy, please save Mommy!" Xia Yumo released Lin Ya's hand and instead gripped Xia Guoliang's arm tightly. Her fair and pretty face was covered in tears as she pleaded pitifully.
"Yumo, don't worry. I have a special foreign medicine on me. I heard that if you have a heart condition or any unusual symptoms, just take one pill and it can suppress the illness."
Zhou Jianwen looked intently at Xia Yumo, then turned around and took out a black box of medicine from the packaging bag. The box was covered with English letters. He quickly took out a pill and said hurriedly, "Quickly bring a glass of water and give the medicine to Aunt Lin."
Upon hearing this, one of the two nannies brought over a glass of warm water from the table and noticed it in Zhou Jianwen's hand.
"Jianwen, are you sure this medicine can treat your Aunt Lin's symptoms?" Xia Guoliang frowned and asked hurriedly. He dared not joke about his wife's life.
"Yes, Jianwen, is this medicine really effective? What if something goes wrong?" Xia Yumo bit her red lips, her eyes brimming with tears, and looked at Zhou Jianwen anxiously.
"Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any problems. Ordinary people can take this medicine as a health supplement or vitamin, and it's very effective for Aunt Lin's strange symptoms."
Zhou Jianwen hurriedly said that he didn't know if he could be cured. If he succeeded, he would definitely become the son-in-law of the Xia family. He would not only inherit the Xia family's multi-million dollar company, but also get such a beautiful woman as Xia Yumo. It would be a win-win situation for him. He was excited just thinking about it.
"We can't worry about that now," Zhou Jianwen said hurriedly, bringing the medicine and water to Lin Ya's mouth. Xia Yumo gently helped Lin Ya up.
Just then, a discordant sound rang out.
"If you don't want her to die, don't give her those weird foreign medicines."
Yang Feng squatted down beside them, looking calmly at Lin Ya. He had already found a way to treat this illness; if she died, his mercenary mission would be considered a failure.
Zhou Jianwen immediately flew into a rage and said, "What are you pretending for at a time like this?! Get out of my way!"
"Even so, my mom is already like this, do you still want to kill her? I admit I liked you in my first year of high school, but I never thought you were the kind of arrogant guy who would harm others. I was blind in my first year of high school. I liked you? Luckily I saw through you."
Xia Yumo was also furious and shouted loudly, her beautiful eyes were red and tears were streaming down her snow-white cheeks.
"Hehehe..." Yang Feng stood up, walked to the dining table and sat down calmly. He picked up a glass of water from the table and replied, "Saving a life is a favor, but refusing to help someone in distress is one's duty."
After saying that, he drank the water on the table in one gulp. He knew that this mission was going to fail, but so what?
