Lin Feng explained with a serious expression.
“Right, Yao Yao jie, just let it be. Since they were brought back by Xiao Lin zi, let Xiao Lin zi boss them around.”
“Think about it, if Xiao Lin zi orders them around like this, wouldn’t they start to hate him? This is a good thing, it saves Xiao Lin zi from giving you the cold shoulder again!” Luo Ke Ke chimed in.
“Whatever you say. Wang Ma is about to finish cooking. I’m hungry and want to eat.” Liu Meng Yao couldn’t argue with Lin Feng and Luo Ke Ke, so she got up and went to the dining room.
Soon, Wang Ma prepared a large table full of dishes. Shen Xin Yue had also nearly finished her chores. She was sore all over, hungry, and sleepy. It was the first time in her life she had done so much work. She felt like her bones were about to fall apart.
“Miss Shen, please eat. You must be starving,” Liu Meng Yao signaled Wang Ma to prepare a set of bowls and chopsticks for Shen Xin Yue.
“Mmm, I am indeed a bit hungry.” Shen Xin Yue didn’t pretend. All she wanted now was to fill her stomach quickly. *This beast Lin Feng is not human, treating her like a mule.* She truly couldn’t understand how someone as stingy as Lin Feng could find a girlfriend! *Are all the girls nowadays blind? What’s so good about him? And her father, asking her to get close to Lin Feng, what is there to get close to about someone like Lin Feng? Could the information be wrong?* Shen Xin Yue was truly exasperated.
“Wang Ma, your cooking is so delicious. This is the most fragrant meal I’ve ever eaten!” Eating Wang Ma’s cooking, Shen Xin Yue’s happiness overflowed again.
“Eat more if you like it. I’ll tidy up a room for you later. If you need anything, just tell me,” Wang Ma said with a loving smile.
“Thank you very much.” Shen Xin Yue ate heartily, consuming three large bowls of rice.
After dinner, Lin Feng went upstairs to rest. He took out the stone tablet fragments, placed them in his palm, and entered a state of cultivation. As expected, his body resonated with the fragments again, and the phantom image of the stone tablet in his mind became even clearer.
“It seems my guess was right. As long as I gather these stone tablet fragments, I should be able to break through to the seventh level of Qi Refining,” Lin Feng mused. He put away the fragments and then called Xiao Qi in. He cultivated while petting his cat, transferring all his remaining true qi to Xiao Qi.
At this moment, Shen Xin Yue was wiping the floor on the second floor, also taking this opportunity to secretly observe Lin Feng. Since the door was not closed, Shen Xin Yue easily saw Lin Feng sitting cross-legged. *What is this guy doing? Is he a pervert?* Shen Xin Yue was shocked by the scene before her. Lin Feng was sitting on the floor, holding a kitten, with his eyes closed, while his hand continuously stroked the cat’s back. Shen Xin Yue was completely bewildered by this sight.
“What are you looking at? Is there something on my face?” Lin Feng opened his eyes and asked coldly when Shen Xin Yue was lost in thought.
“No, I was just wiping the floor and happened to see you sitting on the ground,” Shen Xin Yue explained guiltily.
“Wiping the floor, huh? Then wipe my room too,” Lin Feng sneered inwardly and stood up to instruct her.
“Okay.” Shen Xin Yue cursed inwardly. Lin Feng was starting to order her around again. Helpless, Shen Xin Yue could only pick up the rag and crouch down to wipe the floor for Lin Feng. Because Shen Xin Yue was wearing a very short floral skirt, every time she wiped the floor and stood up, Lin Feng would inadvertently glimpse her bare buttocks.
“Miss Shen, why don’t you wear something on your legs? You’re too prone to accidental exposure, and I might commit a crime,” Lin Feng said with a forced smile.
“Ah?” Shen Xin Yue was stunned for a moment, then realized her skirt was too short, and Lin Feng had seen under her skirt.
“I… I didn’t bring any other clothes. This is the only skirt I have.” Shen Xin Yue’s face turned slightly red, and she secretly cursed Lin Feng as a pervert, seeing everything.
“It’s okay, I have some. You can wear these stockings. If you wear them, you won’t be so easily exposed.” Lin Feng took out a pair of black stockings with English letters from under his pillow. Liu Meng Yao had worn them before and discarded them, and he had kept them specifically.
“This, this isn’t good, is it?” Shen Xin Yue was truly about to collapse. *This guy Lin Feng is such a pervert, privately hoarding this kind of thing.*
“There’s nothing wrong with it. These stockings are still quite new. You don’t mind, do you?” Lin Feng smiled and tossed the stockings to Shen Xin Yue, his intention being to provoke her.
“N-no, I don’t mind. It’s good enough to have something to wear.” What could Shen Xin Yue say? To conceal herself, she could only feign pitifulness. *But what does Lin Feng want? Asking her to wear stockings, could this guy be eyeing her body?* Shen Xin Yue suddenly had a bad feeling. Forced, she could only change into the stockings.
“Not bad, the size is just right. My judgment is quite accurate. I thought this size would suit you.” Lin Feng admired Shen Xin Yue’s legs wrapped in black stockings with satisfaction, feeling that this girl was becoming more and more like a maid.
Shen Xin Yue seemed to have discovered a new continent: “Mr. Lin, aren’t all stockings one size? They are elastic, so anyone can wear them!”
“Really? Then come closer, let me see if they’re elastic.” Lin Feng’s smile grew even brighter.
“This, this isn’t good, is it? Men and women should not touch each other.” Shen Xin Yue started to panic.
“There’s nothing wrong with it. Didn’t you say I’m your benefactor? What’s wrong with a benefactor touching your leg?” Lin Feng said very seriously. “If you feel it’s not appropriate, then you can leave. I’m not forcing you.”
“Benefactor, please don’t misunderstand. I didn’t mean it like that. Then, touch it. They are indeed very elastic.” Shen Xin Yue was truly starting to hate Lin Feng. *This guy is more of a scoundrel than a scoundrel, openly wanting to touch her. Is he even human? If it weren’t for her father’s plan, she would have loved to slap Lin Feng a few times.* Thus, suppressing her disgust, Shen Xin Yue presented her leg wrapped in stockings to Lin Feng.
Lin Feng reached out and touched them. “The quality is good, and the elasticity is also good. They feel nice to the touch.” Shen Xin Yue’s face flushed with shame and anger at his grating words.
Just then, Lin Feng’s phone rang. It was a WeChat voice call from Lu Jing Zhe.
“Miss Lu, do you need something from me?” Lin Feng asked, puzzled.
“Mr. Lin, my grandfather would like to invite you for a late-night snack. Are you free?” Lu Jing Zhe didn’t want to contact Lin Feng, but Lu Qing Yun kept pushing her to interact more with Lin Feng.
“Yes, I’m free. Then I’ll pick a place, and you can come find me.” Lin Feng didn’t refuse. He was thinking of discussing Tang Wan’s company’s new product research and development with Lu Qing Yun.
“Let’s go. I see you have a big appetite. I’ll take you out to eat something, so you don’t get hungry in the middle of the night,” Lin Feng released Shen Xin Yue’s leg and said with a smile.
“I have a big appetite?” Shen Xin Yue was speechless. She was tired because of Lin Feng. But living under someone else’s roof, what could she say? She could only obediently follow Lin Feng out.
“Stop right there! Aren’t you wearing my Yao Yao jie’s stockings? Who allowed you to wear them?” Just as they were about to leave, the sharp-eyed Luo Ke Ke called out to Shen Xin Yue.
Lin Feng’s heart sank, feeling like he was about to be barbecued. He quickly leaned into Shen Xin Yue’s ear and whispered, “Don’t say I let you wear them. Say you found them yourself and put them on your legs!”
“Ah!” Shen Xin Yue was devastated. This guy Lin Feng was actually making her take the blame!
