~7 min read 1,314 words

"So you had already guessed it," Lin Feng said in surprise.

Lin Jingying explained, "Among Li Chengyuan's three confidants, the second-ranked Lv Mingjie is a master of using poison. Since Lin Wei and I were poisoned, the person who poisoned us is nine times out of ten him."

Lin Feng nodded and said, "That guy was indeed Lv Mingjie. He is already dead, and not even his corpse remains. You can rest easy now, Senior Sister."

"Thank you so much, Junior Brother, you've saved my life again!"

Lin Jingying said excitedly, getting up from the sofa and throwing herself into Lin Feng's arms, hugging him tightly.

"Junior Brother, you've saved me so many times, I don't know how to thank you. How about I offer myself to you?" Lin Jingying said with a look of anticipation, her beautiful eyes staring straight at Lin Feng.

Lin Feng pushed Lin Jingying away in annoyance and said, "You've already caused me enough trouble, can you stop adding to it?"

"No..."

Lin Jingying hugged Lin Feng as if acting spoiled, refusing to let go no matter what.

Lin Wei also stood up from the sofa at this moment, so Lin Feng pushed Lin Jingying aside, walked over, and asked, "Xiao Wei, how are you now?"

"I'm already better, Brother, you don't need to worry," Lin Wei said with a smile.

Lin Feng dared not be careless, so he grabbed Lin Wei's hand to check again. Only after confirming that there was not a trace of poison left in Lin Wei's body did he finally feel relieved.

Seeing this, Lin Jingying said gloomily, "Why don't you check for me? You're too biased."

"Xiao Wei is not a Martial Artist; her body is very fragile, so I have to be careful. As for you... you are a Martial Emperor-level expert, what do I have to worry about?" Lin Feng said.

"But I can't exert any of my Martial Dao strength right now, I'm no different from an ordinary person," Lin Jingying argued.

"There is still a difference. Your physique has been tempered by True Qi, and in every aspect, it far exceeds that of an ordinary person. Even if I didn't detoxify you, you wouldn't die from the poison; at most, you'd just be uncomfortable for a few days. But Xiao Wei is different. If there were still toxins in her body, her life would definitely be in danger," Lin Feng said solemnly.

"You really are a boring person," Lin Jingying said with a resentful expression, as if Lin Feng had done something to wrong her.

The night grew deep, and this crisis had already been resolved.

Lin Feng then returned to his own room to rest.

When dawn arrived, Lin Feng received a message from Su Mingyue; she was about to arrive in Jinling!

Lin Feng hurriedly got up, washed up, changed into clean clothes, and left Shuiyuntian Villa with Lin Wei to go to the Nanjing High-speed Railway Station.

After standing at the exit for more than ten minutes, the graceful Su Mingyue walked out of the high-speed railway station with light steps.

"Mingyue!"

Lin Feng called out and waved his hand.

Su Mingyue turned her head to look at Lin Feng, but the expression on her face was very complicated.

Lin Wei ran over, grabbed Su Mingyue's hand with a face full of smiles, and said, "Sister-in-law, you've finally arrived. I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Seeing that Su Mingyue's complexion was not very good, Lin Wei asked, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong? Is something on your mind?"

"It's all because of your brother!" Su Mingyue said angrily.

"What's wrong with my brother?" Lin Wei was completely confused.

Su Mingyue bit her lip and finally said, "Your brother has wronged me!"

Lin Wei immediately looked toward Lin Feng.

Lin Feng walked over with a bitter smile and said, "Mingyue, you really misunderstood me. Things between Lin Jingying and me are not what you think."

So Su Mingyue was angry because of the matter with Lin Jingying!

Lin Wei finally realized what was happening and hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law, you've wronged my brother. My brother hasn't done anything to wrong you; he and Sister Lin are innocent."

"Although Sister Lin is always seducing my brother, my brother has held firm to his heart and has never done anything inappropriate with her."

Su Mingyue said gloomily, "You are his sister, of course you would speak up for him."

Lin Wei had no choice; she said to Lin Feng with a bitter face, "Brother, I can't help you this time. You'll have to handle this yourself."

Lin Feng grabbed Su Mingyue's delicate hand. Su Mingyue tried to pull her hand away out of spite, but she couldn't pull it free after two attempts.

"Don't throw a tantrum here; it wouldn't be good if people around us made a joke of it... Come, let's go home. We can talk slowly once we get home," Lin Feng said.

Su Mingyue finally nodded.

Upon returning to the Shuiyuntian Central Villa, Lin Wei very attentively served hot tea to Su Mingyue.

Su Mingyue said thank you, took a sip of the tea, set it down, and then looked at Lin Feng.

"Speak, let's see how you'll quibble," Su Mingyue asked unhappily.

"Xiao Wei, go back to your room first," Lin Feng said.

Lin Wei didn't want to leave, but after being glared at by Lin Feng, she had no choice but to go upstairs resentfully.

Thus, only Lin Feng and Su Mingyue were left in the hall, while Lin Jingying had gone to the Central Grand Theater to rehearse for a program and wouldn't return until the evening.

Looking at Su Mingyue before him, Lin Feng took a deep breath, not intending to hide anything anymore.

"Mingyue, I have indeed wronged you, but Sister Lin and I are innocent. At least for now, she and I have not done anything overstepping," Lin Feng said earnestly.

"What do you mean by that?" Su Mingyue asked angrily.

Lin Feng smiled bitterly and continued, "Mingyue, when our Lin Family was wiped out back then, I was also injured. If it weren't for my master's wife saving me and taking me up the mountain, I probably wouldn't have survived."

"During the years I spent training under my master's wife, it was my seven senior sisters who took care of me. They were very good to me; one could even say they were my benefactors. So to me, they are all very important people. I hope you can understand."

"And now, the First Senior Sister and Third Senior Sister have already... been intimate with me. The other senior sisters haven't yet, but I cannot guarantee that I won't have that kind of relationship with them in the future. My Immortal Divine Dragon Body is of great benefit to them; I'm afraid they won't let me go."

Su Mingyue's eyes turned red, and glistening tears flowed from them.

"So are you breaking up with me now?" Su Mingyue said.

Lin Feng shook his head and said very sincerely, "No, I don't want to break up with you. You are also very important to me. But I cannot lie to you, so I am telling you the truth now, telling you all these things, and letting you decide for yourself."

"If you can accept me and accept my senior sisters, then we will still be together. If you truly cannot accept it, then I will not force you."

Su Mingyue gripped her skirt with both hands, her shoulders trembling slightly.

"How... how could you expect me to accept this?" Su Mingyue said with a sobbing tone.

"It's my fault, but I have no choice. I am also having a terrible headache being caught in the middle... Mingyue, think about it carefully; there's no rush to make a decision," Lin Feng said.
