Chapter 50

First Volume, Chapter 50: Earthy Love Words

Women really are unreasonable!

Seeing Xie Yun'er raise her whip again, Qin Feng gave up; since she was determined to believe he was a peeper, no matter how much he explained, she wouldn't believe him.

If that was the case, Qin Feng could only pull out his ultimate move—he gritted his teeth, hardened his heart, and said: "Please, Miss Xie, spare my life! I'm still just a child, don't hold it against me."

Xie Yun'er had seen countless shameless scoundrels, but never one as shameless as Qin Feng—who changed his expression several times in an instant.

Qin Feng didn't care about any of that; he was always practical, not theoretical. As long as he could pacify this girl and find a chance to escape, it was worth more than any merit.

Qin Feng recalled Qin Xiaofu, imitating his groveling flattery, unleashing one hundred and twenty percent of his kissing-ass skills: "Miss Xie, your grace is vast enough to hold a ship—how could you possibly hold a grudge against someone like me? I've long heard you're a woman who outshines men, and you'd never falsely accuse an innocent person."

Xie Yun'er bit her thin lips, her eyes filled with complex emotion.

This fellow is truly the genius who wrote "Beyond the Frontier"? He's clearly a ruffian!

"You… stop talking so much!"

"They say a tiger doesn't sire a dog—how great is the reputation of the Minister of War? You've ruined it all."

Facing Xie Yun'er's sharp rebuke, Qin Feng felt no shame—he felt proud! The old saying goes: Shi Shi Zhe Wei Junjie. Qin Feng was always practical; in his view, begging wasn't shameful—being beaten senseless was. If word spread that Qin Feng had been punished by a woman, how could he ever stand in Beijing again?

Qin Feng racked his brains, pulling out every ounce of flattery toward Xie Yun'er; she held her whip high, yet couldn't bring herself to strike.

Just at this deadline, a roar rang out.

"Qin Feng, get out here, you bastard!"

Qin Feng and Xie Yun'er both froze, turning in unison to look—the source was a furious little tiger standing at the Gate, scanning the area.

Qin Feng recognized him at once—wasn't this Ning Hu?!

According to the former body's memories, this kid was Xie Yun'er's die-hard admirer, and he'd already declared across Beijing that anyone who lusted after her was challenging Ning Hu himself. It was said he'd beaten up several aristocratic youths for her sake.

Qin Feng had expected Ning Hu would come looking for trouble—but he never imagined he'd show up at this exact deadline.

Seeing Qin Feng about to be humiliated, Li Rui and Cheng Fa wouldn't miss such a perfect opportunity—they hurried over, spotted Qin Feng in the Cool Pavilion, and couldn't suppress their glee.

Li Rui crossed his arms and threw stones at one who had fallen: "To anger both Ning Hu and Xie Yun'er, two violent types? Heh—heh, I'd love to see how Qin Feng dies!"

Cheng Fa was also in high spirits, grinning widely: "This bastard swindled me ten taels—I'll take it as medical fees, hahaha!"

Qin Feng had nearly dropped to his knees—then, seeing Ning Hu and the others, his body jolted like an electric shock, and he shot upright in an instant!

Being shameless and having no bottom line are two different things.

Kneeling to beg a woman was fine—but kneeling publicly? That was another matter entirely.

Qin Feng's groveling expression vanished instantly, replaced by stern integrity—his face-switch was so sudden, Xie Yun'er stared, dumbfounded.

Then, under Xie Yun'er's disbelieving gaze, Qin Feng suddenly began speaking with solemn seriousness.

"Yun'er, don't you know who I am?"

Huh?! Xie Yun'er looked utterly confused—what was this bastard playing at?

Before she could recover, her slender hand was completely enveloped by Qin Feng's large palm—feeling the heat radiating from his palm, her cheeks flushed instantly. She opened her mouth to scold him, but he cut her off first.

Qin Feng gazed at Xie Yun'er with tender affection, recalling the posture of a "romantic hero" from movies, and declared with grave sincerity: "Yun'er, I swear—I love only you, no one else, not now, not ever. Forgive me."

At these words, Xie Yun'er gasped, staring at Qin Feng as if he were an idiot—surely his head had been kicked by a donkey, or else why would he spout nonsense in broad daylight?

The Beijing circle was small enough that Xie Yun'er had heard of Qin Feng's infamous reputation, but this was their first meeting—she didn't know him at all, so how could there be any love…

Besides, right now she wanted to kill Qin Feng—he should be kneeling and begging for mercy, not suddenly turning into this bizarre persona!

It wasn't just Xie Yun'er who froze.

Ning Hu stood rigid, his eyes wide with disbelief.

Seeing the situation firmly in his grasp, Qin Feng naturally pressed his advantage—adding more temperament control!

He didn't know how to speak sweet nothings, but he'd seen countless earthy love words online—perfect timing now.

Qin Feng's gaze grew hazy, brimming with boundless affection: "How could I ever do anything wrong to a woman as gentle as jade, cultured, and gifted in both talent and beauty?"

"Do you know the difference between you and the stars? The stars are in the sky—you're in my heart."

"From now on, I can only call you 'you' in the most respectful form—because you're on my heart."

"Can you shut up?"

Startled by Qin Feng's sudden question, Xie Yun'er, still dazed, instinctively replied: "I didn't say anything…"

Qin Feng narrowed his eyes: "Then why is your voice filling my mind?"

As a top salesperson, thick skin was basic skill—even spouting such cloying earthy love words, Qin Feng didn't blush or flinch.

In contrast, Xie Yun'er stood speechless. She knew what sweet talk was—but such words were only spoken in private, between a man and a woman alone. Who would say them so brazenly, in public, without a shred of shame?! And… these words were far too explicit!

Xie Yun'er snapped out of her shock, only to plunge into unprecedented embarrassment—her cheeks burned red, and all she wanted was to crawl into a crack in the ground. She'd completely forgotten why she'd come to confront Qin Feng today.

Li Rui and Cheng Fa stood dumbfounded. Though they were famous playboys of Beijing, fluent in lewd banter in Hua Fang or brothels, they always posed as "gentlemen" in public—never daring to utter such things. In terms of shamelessness, Li Rui and Cheng Fa admitted defeat.

And this was all happening right in front of Ning Hu!

Who in Beijing didn't know Ning Hu's feelings for Xie Yun'er?

They'd planned to stoke the fire, pushing Qin Feng into the storm—but before Li Rui and Cheng Fa could open their mouths, Qin Feng had already set the whole thing ablaze himself.
