A face so beautiful was less than three inches from yours.
The tips of their noses were almost touching.
Her breath was as fragrant as orchids.
His heart was racing.
“Why would I ask?”
Ling Feng appeared calm on the surface, even managing to ask Ji Yunyue a question with a relaxed demeanor.
Ji Yunyue blinked her beautiful eyes, gazing deeply into Ling Feng’s.
She seemed to want to see if her beauty had stirred even the slightest ripple in Ling Feng’s heart.
As it turned out, Ji Yunyue got the answer she was looking for.
Even though Ling Feng was good at concealing his emotions, the subtle turmoil in the depths of his eyes did not escape Ji Yunyue’s notice.
“Then do you mind if I lock the door?”
“I don’t mind.”
“Oh? Aren’t you afraid that your other girlfriends will misunderstand and think I’m doing something to you?”
Ji Yunyue sat down beside Ling Feng.
She appeared cold, yet her skin was not only smooth but also radiated a heat like that of burning charcoal.
The warmth made Ling Feng instinctively flinch away.
He could only control his breathing to keep his voice from trembling.
“I won’t do anything to you!”
Ji Yunyue suddenly turned and straddled Ling Feng.
This move caused Ling Feng to spread his hands, instinctively wanting to push Ji Yunyue away.
However, they were too close; a push now would lead to touching places he shouldn't.
“Then aren’t you afraid I’ll do something to you?”
Ji Yunyue’s usual arrogance vanished, replaced by a shy blush, as if inviting him to pluck her.
“You can’t do anything to me. Get down. Tell me what you want to learn. If not, I need to leave.”
A gentle yet powerful surge of energy emanated from Ling Feng, directly pushing Ji Yunyue away.
Caught off guard, Ji Yunyue’s perfect figure landed on the floor.
Her skirt fluttered, revealing a beautiful sight!
Now, Ji Yunyue became flustered, quickly standing up and tidying her slightly disheveled pajamas.
In the blink of an eye, Ling Feng was already at the door.
“Wait!”
Ji Yunyue hurried forward to stop him.
“You can’t leave so soon!”
Ling Feng turned and frowned at Ji Yunyue.
“Why can’t I?”
Ji Yunyue bit her lower lip.
“Because, because… you spent six minutes in Hua Yuxiao’s room! With me, you must, you must stay for half an hour!”
Ling Feng was truly speechless upon hearing this.
How had the Saintess of the Witch God Hall become like this?
What was there to compare?
What was the point of six minutes versus half an hour?
“I don’t have time to play games with you here.”
Ling Feng was about to leave decisively. He had to admit that Ji Yunyue’s charm was greater, more alluring than Hua Yuxiao’s.
If he stayed any longer, Ling Feng feared something might actually happen.
“No, then… my Witchcraft Secret Arts!”
“Another day!”
Ling Feng ignored Ji Yunyue’s plea and heartlessly opened the door and left.
Ji Yunyue was extremely embarrassed and angry. It was the first time in her life she had shown such a demeanor towards a man, yet she couldn't even keep him there.
It was a complete failure.
The feeling of defeat was overwhelming!
“Oh, you came out in less than three minutes this time. It seems the charm of this Saintess of the Witch God Hall is not to be underestimated. I thought you’d at least stay for half an hour the second time!”
Suddenly, Li Tianjiao’s flippant voice drifted in through the crack in the door.
Ji Yunyue’s pretty face instantly flushed red.
She quickly closed the door tightly.
“So that’s how it is…”
She had initially thought that keeping Ling Feng longer would signify her sufficient charm. She hadn't realized that a shorter time actually proved her charm was even higher.
But the thought of those embarrassing moments made Ji Yunyue bite her lip involuntarily.
“A man like this, everyone wants him. I must carve out a place for myself in his heart!”
Her voice, like a vow, escaped Ji Yunyue’s lips.
As for Ling Feng, he naturally shot Li Tianjiao a glare upon exiting and then headed directly towards Lin Siqi and Tang Ru’s room.
Since he had already "battled" with the other two girls, this next battle was unavoidable!
Of course, this was also the biggest uphill battle he had faced so far.
However, with an external enemy present, he couldn't afford to have trouble in his own backyard.
Ling Feng didn't want women to affect his mindset, as it could lead to deviations in his judgment, which would have severe consequences.
Knock, knock, knock!
He knocked on the door again.
This time, it wasn't Tang Ru telling him to leave.
The door was opened directly.
He saw Lin Siqi looking at him with a touch of shyness, then making a shushing gesture.
“Xiao Ran is asleep, keep your voice down.”
Lin Siqi was wearing a light, white nightgown that went past her knees, her shoulders exposed, and the lines of her collarbone were breathtakingly perfect.
And her current posture…
It was hard not to imagine a scene.
A couple with a child, the wife had just lulled the child to sleep, and the husband came to knock on the door, and then…
Then came some secretive activities.
Ling Feng was unaccustomed to this feeling, but he had to admit that with Lin Siqi standing before him, he still had the urge to embrace her!
This was something he hadn't felt with the other two women.
“Where is Tang Ru?”
The words he had been about to say turned into these three words.
Ling Feng felt the atmosphere had become quite awkward.
Lin Siqi’s smile was a little stiff, but she still nodded and said softly, “Tang Ru is in the children’s room with Xiao Ran. Don’t go in and disturb her!”
“Can I come in?”
Ling Feng gestured with his eyes.
Lin Siqi hesitated for a moment before moving her graceful figure aside, biting her lower lip, too shy to look at Ling Feng.
“It’s so late, Ling Feng, you should get some rest…”
Before Lin Siqi could finish speaking, the door was gently closed.
And Ling Feng interrupted her words with a hug.
Feeling Ling Feng’s broad chest and strong heartbeat, Lin Siqi’s face instantly flushed, burning with heat!
“Siqi, thank you for taking care of Xiao Ran. You’ve worked hard.”
Ling Feng’s voice was exceptionally gentle.
Lin Siqi did not resist Ling Feng’s embrace; she even slowly raised her hand and placed it gently on his back.
Patting him lightly.
“You must have gone through a lot in Nan Yun. You’ve worked much harder than I have!”
These were words of concern, like a wife speaking to a husband returning home after a long absence.
Gentle and understanding to the point of heartache!
“Soon, everything will be over!”
Ling Feng nodded heavily, as if making a promise to Lin Siqi.
However, he didn’t say the rest of his thoughts.
Lin Siqi nodded with satisfaction, “Yes, I believe you.”
