Chapter 225 - Provocation
“Emm? Why are you in my home? And you are even wearing a pajama? What on earth did you do?”
Ling was the first one to realize that something was wrong with the steps behind her. She thought that it was Qian Duoduo who went upstairs and then came downstairs. However, it was Liu Qiangwei, the most threatening woman in her eyes!
Instantly, Ling put down the roasted bread and stood on the tall chair to confront Liu Qiangwei without even wiping the bread crumbs at her mouth.
Being silent, Liu Qiangwei looked at Xiao Feng. Wearing a white cotton-made pajama dress, she still appeared extremely beautiful. Maybe because she just got up, she didn’t put on any makeup. Her waterfall-like black hair dropped naturally, which added more sophistication to her with less fairy flavor.
Besides, likewise, she also looked sleepy.
“Emm?”
Ling noticed that Liu Qiangwei was looking at Xiao Feng, so she also looked to him immediately. Her blue eyes reflected the glimmer of doubt, making her just like a kitty that smelled the fish.
“Where did you get the pajama?”
Xiao Feng asked Liu Qiangwei in confusion. She came here in a dress and he didn’t see her bring any pajama. How come she was wearing a pajama now?
“Duoduo lent it to me.”
Liu Qiangwei said naturally and also sat down before the table in a natural way. She was sitting on Qian Duoduo’s seat. She didn’t mind that the food was left by Qian Duoduo and just put it into her mouth.
Ning Keke didn’t know Liu Qiangwei was here, so she didn’t prepare breakfast for her. Although Xiao Feng opened the door of Ning Keke’s room, she didn’t notice Liu Qiangwei blocked by Xiao Feng outside the room due to panic and helplessness.
“When did you become so close?”
Xiao Feng said confusedly and yet couldn’t help looking at the chest of Liu Qiangwei. No wonder he felt that the cotton night skirt looked a bit tight on her. And the neckline was too low that even her white and deep cleavage was vaguely seen.
Moreover, Xiao Feng was wondering why Qian Duoduo looked so sleepy. Generally, the game helmet could help with the sleep. Even if you didn’t log off for the whole night, your body would remain in a light sleep status and you wouldn’t feel short of sleep.
However, now Liu Qiangwei and Qian Duoduo both looked so sleepy. Hence, Xiao Feng guessed that they must have done something together last night.
Particularly after Liu Qiangwei said she had borrowed the pajama from Qian Duoduo, Xiao Feng was more convinced of that.
“Bastard Servant! Where are you looking at? Are you a lustful male dog? So you just go for any girl you see?”
Ling also noticed that Xiao Feng was looking at Liu Qiangwei’s deep cleavage and then she lowered her head to check her own chest. It was as flat as a pancake. Instantly, she gave an ashamed and resentful look, and yelled at Xiao Feng.
Xiao Feng coughed and hurried to look away, having his breakfast quietly.
Liu Qiangwei had a bite of the roasted bread and stared at Ling who was standing on the chair and looking down upon her. Liu Qiangwei seemed to be pondering now.
This was the second time that she had met with Ling and she didn’t remember much about their first meeting.
In her mind, Xiao Feng was the one who was responsible for the death of Xia Guangwei, the previous president of the Midsummer Group while Xia Ling was the only daughter of Xia Guangwei. These two persons should be in a hostile relationship.
According to Liu Qiangwei’s knowledge of Xiao Feng, he looked easy-going but he was actually merciless and cruel because she had seen on her own Xiao Feng’s indifference and emotionless coldness before.
She believed that Xia Ling and she, as well as the whole Midsummer Group were only the tool to find out the one behind the scheme.
She felt sorry for Xia Ling because of that. In her eyes, Xiao Feng was the one who caused her father’s death as well as used Xia Ling as the tool to get the evil behind the scheme, which made Xia Ling quite miserable.
However, the current situation was greatly different from Liu Qiangwei’s conjecture. It was vastly different.
Seeing that Xia Ling was standing on the chair, accusing Xiao Feng rudely without attending to her image, Liu Qiangwei just couldn’t help wondering the relationship between them.
Was it that Xia Ling, the only daughter of the previous president of the Midsummer Group hadn’t known that her father’s death resulted from Xiao Feng?
Coincidentally, when Liu Qiangwei thought of that, she happened to make eye contact with Xiao Feng.
His eyes looked normally calm but they were just too calm, just like the dark sea surface before the storm arrived.
Liu Qiangwei instantly shivered with fear, as if the temperature around her went down by several degrees. She sensed that his eyes were a warning for her, calm and yet overwhelmingly stressful.
She didn’t dare to see Xiao Feng’s eyes anymore so she hastened to look away. After taking a few breaths, she could finally say normally.
“Can I move here in several days?”
Having taken a bite of the cold roasted bread, Liu Qiangwei looked at Xiao Feng and asked cautiously.
She didn’t do this on the spur of the moment. She had planned it before. Otherwise, she wouldn’t use the artifact to exchange for the key to the villa.
Her 22th birthday was approaching. A hopeless and suffocating stress was overwhelming her quietly.
It was her date of destiny. On that day, she would be faced with an invincible and powerful force, which she could not resist or confront.
She had no idea where to find a glimmer of hope. Yet, once she saw Xiao Feng and stayed with him, the heavy stress that was haunting her for more than 20 years would feel like it’s gone.
It might only be a pathetic imagination when someone was too desperate. Liu Qiangwei knew how strong the force was and that even the most powerful person of the whole Huaxia could never resist the force on his own.
However, Liu Qiangwei believed in her feelings, for she had felt the power on Xiao Feng, which was no weaker than the stress haunting her for over 20 years. It might only be conjecture, but Liu Qiangwei was certain that if anyone could save her from her pathetic and miserable destiny, it must be the man before her now!
Then there was only one problem. That was how to make Xiao Feng acknowledge her and help her.
Liu Qiangwei thought that Qian Duoduo was close to Xiao Feng. After all, based on the materials she had collected, the Treasure Pavilion was basically built up by Xiao Feng. It was a grand place that made the whole Huaxia District pay special regard. Hence, Qian Duoduo, the seeming owner of the Treasure Pavilion must be a reliable subordinate of Xiao Feng.
To her surprise, when she talked with Qian Duoduo last night, she realized that Qian Duoduo didn’t get to know Xiao Feng earlier than she did and also learnt nothing about Xiao Feng. In terms of his identity and background, Qian Duoduo knew less than she did.
It put Liu Qiangwei into silence. She found that Xiao Feng became even more mysterious and harder to see through.
In terms of Xiao Feng’s invincible competence in the game and his startling actions in the real world, Liu Qiangwei had numerous guesses for his background and identity but she couldn’t ascertain at all, because there was no comparable objects or reference.
“What? You want to move here? Absolutely no! What do you think this place is? You may as well go back to your own home!”
Faced with Liu Qiangwei’s inquiry, Xiao Feng didn’t have time to reply but Ling turned angry first and almost fell down from the chair. She was rather angry and shouted at Liu Qiangwei with great hostility.
Liu Qiangwei smiled. She was not a woman who would argue with a teenage girl but she would not stand others’ repeated hostility either.
Hence, she showed the “weapon” in her hand–the key to the villa that she got from Xiao Feng last night.
“This… This is the key?” Of course Ling saw the key in Liu Qiangwei’s hand as well as her provocative look, so she instantly shouted out loud.
“You bastard servant! What dirty thing did you do behind me? Is your brain only stuffed with the useless fat in the breasts? Just some useless fat in the chest! I will have it sooner or later!”
Ling pointed at Xiao Feng and said angrily. After saying that, she jumped off the chair and dashed upstairs.
“Highness Ling…”
Ning Keke, who just came out of the kitchen, called her. She just went to get some porridge for Xiao Feng and didn’t know what happened.
“Don’t call me! You big-breasted people! I know your breasts are big. So what?!”
Ling’s voice came far from the corridor. Along with sound of slamming the door, a crying voice was also heard.
Downstairs, Liu Qiangwei sitting before the table stopped smiling and stretched out her arms freely.
“Don’t bully Ling.” Xiao Feng said with a frown.
“I know, but she must learn not to be capricious, right? Can you look after her for the rest of her life?” Liu Qiangwei looked at Xiao Feng and refuted with no weakness.
Yet, Xiao Feng fell into silence and didn’t say anything.
