Chapter 359: Chapter 358: Canceling Benefits
After satisfying material needs, the meaning of life becomes pursuit.
Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang had long since transcended the pursuit of material life, so both of them had their own aspirations.
Qin Yanyang was born into a Martial Arts Family like the Qin Family. With her extraordinary talent, she had established the most positive of values from a young age.
In her heart, she was one of the guardians for the billions of families in Divine Continent Country, fighting for the honor of her nation and people, already inseparably integrated with this country.
Yang Fei, by comparison, was much cruder.
He was not as noble as Qin Yanyang. After gaining a certain level of power overseas, he wasn’t satisfied with the status quo. While practicing medicine and saving lives, he also formed ’International Madman’ under the name ’Tang’, making the organization famous in the overseas underworld.
He thought he should probably be fond of fame and wealth.
How could a vigorous young man of twenty-three be without a bit of ambition and pursuit?
After the change in his circumstances, the few months he spent back in China were the most peaceful years of his life, and comparatively, his mentality became much more at ease.
Especially since falling in love with Qin Yanyang, he had grown somewhat fond of this simple and uneventful life.
But now, with the chronic illness within him almost cured and his combat power restored to more than ninety percent, his heart was no longer calm.
He still had a lot to do.
Even now, his mentality had changed a lot compared to when he had just returned to the country. Faced with today’s troubles caused by Li Zhongni, he habitually reverted to his old overseas way of doing things, overcoming all with sheer force and pushing through irresistibly.
Just after he returned to the country, he was worried about exposure and concerned about involving his friends and family.
Now, he was bold and sharp-edged. ’Madman King’s true colors were on full display, and he no longer hesitated or feared.
This stemmed from the great confidence he gained after recovering his combat power.
At the same time, Qin Yanyang was a reason, too.
Because with his wife Qin Yanyang, he could quickly return to the peak of his combat power. And as long as he was with Qin Yanyang, his strength would advance by leaps and bounds.
Additionally, Qin Yanyang was growing too, and with the assistance of powers like the Qin Family, Zhu Family, and Xu Family back home, his confidence was many times stronger than when he had just come back.
If it weren’t for Qin Yanyang’s reverent words, Yang Fei had only two life goals.
To lead the brothers of International Madman in a fight to the death with Sky Net, seeking revenge to wash away humiliation.
The other was to visit the Hidden Sect to uncover everything about his mother, and according to his uncle’s description, his father had dwindled and died after returning, probably poisoned or fatally wounded. As a son, he naturally needed to find out the truth.
But now, with Qin Yanyang’s words, Yang Fei felt aside from those two things, he had even more important things to do.
That was to be a steadfast support for Qin Yanyang. While she silently protected the countless households of Divine Continent Country, he would silently protect her.
One could say that at this moment, Yang Fei’s values were influenced by Qin Yanyang and underwent some changes.
He is a descendant of China, a man of Divine Continent, beginning to shoulder responsibilities.
Qin Yanyang didn’t realize she had influenced Yang Fei’s values. When she heard him say he would be her steadfast support, her heart was tremendously touched.
It reminded her of the first time she truly had feelings for Yang Fei.
Back then, facing Luo Yong, Yang Fei held her hand and said, "We will advance or retreat together, and share life and death."
In the past, when she saw Yang Hao and Huang Qiaoqiao elope for love, her heart was full of envy, considering it a passionate love affair, and she longed for it.
Thinking back to her time with Yang Fei, she couldn’t help but smile to herself.
Facing Luo Yong back then, he was ready to advance or retreat with her, to share life and death – wasn’t that even more intense than what Yang Hao and Huang Qiaoqiao had?
Now that she had expressed her ambitions, and faced with huge challenges, he resolutely and firmly stood by her side. Wasn’t that more moving than the most beautiful words of love in the world?
Steering the Bentley single-handedly, Qin Yanyang let Yang Fei hold and touch her other hand, tacitly consenting to his flirty behavior.
"By the way, wife, you’re the deputy minister of the Military Department. That seems like no small position, huh? Besides that, are you hiding any other identities from me?" Yang Fei suddenly asked, looking at Qin Yanyang with a smiley face.
Qin Yanyang’s expression changed slightly.
The incident happened so suddenly today. She knew about the combat power of the Military Department and was afraid that once Yang Fei clashed with them, the consequences would be unpredictable, and her identity might be exposed.
Now seeing Yang Fei asking, she thought for a moment and shook her head, saying, "No, that’s all. Aside from my identity as a Martial Alliance Elder, all my other identities have been discovered by you."
Yang Fei looked at her and said, "I don’t believe it."
Qin Yanyang clenched her teeth and said, "Really, there’s nothing left. I’m just over twenty-four years old, and I already hold several positions. I’m not deeply involved, so how could I have other roles? I can’t just be a seat-warmer, hogging the... ahem... you know."
Yang Fei chuckled, looking unconvinced.
Qin Yanyang stuck to her principle of not disclosing her identity information proactively, as she had to adhere to the confidentiality agreement.
As for being slowly discovered by Yang Fei, that was his skill.
Worried that Yang Fei would keep asking, she counter-queried, "What about you? I feel that someone as capable as you, even if you were in the overseas world, must not be a nobody. Aside from being the Divine Doctor, don’t you have anything else you want to tell me?"
Uh...
Yang Fei was left speechless.
Here we go again!
Every time he wanted to know more about her, she turned the tables on him.
This wife was not easy to fool.
She had a firm grip on the pace.
Yang Fei shrugged, spread his hands, and said, "What other identity could I have? I’m just your husband."
Qin Yanyang laughed and showed him the same ’I’ll believe you when pigs fly’ expression he had shown earlier.
She learned quickly and gave as good as she got.
Yang Fei, frustrated and itching to retaliate, would have ’taken the wheel’ if it hadn’t been for the fact she was driving.
He thought again about the situation with Tong Yunshu.
This was something Qin Yanyang must never find out about, or it would all blow up.
He figured he had to step up the pace and completely win Qin Yanyang over, for if the affair with Tong Yunshu ever came to light, knowing Qin Yanyang as he did, there would no longer be any chance for them.
With this in mind, Yang Fei’s gaze grew fervent as he looked at Qin Yanyang and said, "Wife, how about we go book a room?"
Qin Yanyang was startled and then blushed, feigning ignorance as she asked, "Book a room for what?"
"I think maybe you’re a bit inhibited in your own boudoir. If we change the environment, maybe we can..."
"Hey, stop it, don’t mention this, I... I’ve said it, my heart is yours, and someday my body will be too, but... but we’ve only been together for just over three months. Things are moving too fast."
Yang Fei, not ready to give up, said gloomily, "Three months of being together day and night is already quite a long time, not short at all. If it were someone else, maybe it would have taken less than a week to be fully united."
As Yang Fei spoke more and more bluntly, Qin Yanyang’s heart raced and her body felt feverish, somewhat unnaturally. She chided, "Don’t talk about that. You... you shouldn’t always think about such things. Others are others, I am me. We... we should at least wait until we’re really married, right?"
Seeing her resolve, Yang Fei felt disheartened and said with a bitter face, "Then when do you think it’s appropriate for us to get married? Being able to look and touch every day, but not take real action, is truly hard for me."
"Then starting from tonight, we’ll focus on training, work hard to grow. You’re not allowed to look or touch, that way you won’t feel frustrated."
Yang Fei was completely dumbfounded.
Even that little perk was gone?
Was life even worth living anymore?
Silly woman, you’re pushing your man towards another woman’s bed!
