Chapter 116: Finally Eating Steak Again

~6 min read 1,062 words

He hadn't even finished a can of beer when his phone suddenly rang.

Lin Feng took out his phone and saw it was a call from Qi Yao.

He quickly answered, "Hello~ Yao Yao!"

Qi Yao's voice was still that faint, gentle tone, lightly saying, "I'm done with work, I'll make you a steak!"

"Okay! I'll be there right away!"

Lin Feng gave a brief assent, put down his phone, and immediately ran toward the gym.

Having drunk half a can of beer, would I be finished if caught for drunk driving?

That's definitely true!

But Lin Feng couldn't worry about that any longer.

To him, having his driver's license revoked was still less important than Qi Yao's steak.

Lin Feng was lucky; his car drove unimpeded all the way into the Beautiful City Century Community.

Building 7 Unit 404.

After pressing the doorbell, within a minute Qi Yao opened the door.

Qi Yao was still wearing a clean white coat.

"Yao Yao!"

Lin Feng grabbed Qi Yao and held her in his arms.

Qi Yao hesitated briefly, then lifted her hand and placed it on Lin Feng's waist.

Lin Feng wanted to kiss, but Qi Yao frowned.

He had just eaten barbecue, so his mouth tasted of beer, tobacco, and garlic.

"Sorry! I got too excited."

Lin Feng quickly apologized and let go of Qi Yao.

"I'm going to make the steak."

Qi Yao said lightly, then entered the kitchen.

To savor the flavor, Lin Feng went to the bathroom and rinsed his mouth clean.

After a dozen minutes, the two sat facing each other.

Lin Feng ate the delicious steak while sipping red wine.

"There are just over ten days until the Mid‑Autumn Festival; have you taken leave?"

Lin Feng asked.

Qi Yao replied, "I haven't taken leave; there's a holiday, combined with National Day, giving eight days off. As long as no case comes up, I should be able to go back early."

Hearing that, Lin Feng's heart tightened.

No case occurring?

I'm afraid a case might arise before the Mid‑Autumn Festival, right?

"What if there is a case?"

Lin Feng asked.

Qi Yao thought for a moment, "If there's a case, I can take leave."

Lin Feng nodded, feeling a sigh of relief.

Then he added, "If there's a case and it's troublesome, I can help you."

Qi Yao gave a soft "mm."

She had seen Lin Feng's strength.

She had once wanted Lin Feng to become a Forensic Doctor, but he refused.

If they were together, dissecting corpses together… Qi Yao imagined the scenario, a faint smile appearing at the corner of her mouth.

Lin Feng just took a sip of red wine, saw Qi Yao's faint smile, and his mouth opened in a stunned gape.

Then…

"Cough, cough, cough…"

He choked on the red wine.

That night, Lin Feng, shamelessly, crawled onto Qi Yao's bed.

Qi Yao was reading, and as Lin Feng groped her, she helplessly set the book down and turned off the light.

"Yao Yao, I want…"

Lin Feng, holding Qi Yao, said.

"No!"

Qi Yao refused outright.

"But it feels so uncomfortable!"

Lin Feng shook Qi Yao's body and said plaintively.

"Then… like last time?"

Qi Yao said, extending her hand.

Lin Feng quickly turned his back, his body bent like a shrimp, "Last time it was a mess!"

Qi Yao ignored Lin Feng.

Lin Feng turned again and whispered a few words into Qi Yao's ear.

Fierce Tiger Gym.

After Lin Feng left, Zhao Xiaoyang returned.

Eating skewers alone is no fun.

But he brought in a case of beer, sat on the sofa and watched TV.

It was a period drama.

On the screen, a woman in ancient costume was grinding medicine with a wheel held between her legs.

Grind, grind!

Zhao Xiaoyang found the scene boring, picked up the remote and changed the channel.

Whoosh—, the rolling shutter door downstairs was pulled open.

Wang Yu stepped in high heels, tap tap tap, and walked in.

That swaying waist made a fire flare in Zhao Xiaoyang's heart.

He immediately waved at Wang Yu and said, "Xiao Yu, I'm here!"

Wang Yu looked up at Zhao Xiaoyang.

She didn't smile.

Instead, she hurried upstairs.

Then she took out her phone, handed it to Zhao Xiaoyang and said, "Take a look, this is a screenshot from our school forum."

Zhao Xiaoyang took the phone, skimmed it, frowned and said, "Who is this guy, isn't he asking for trouble?"

Wang Yu said, "Jiang Xiaofei is being mocked right now! In the afternoon we went to the apartment that Brother Feng let her stay in; Li ZiQi and Zhou Ya went over to keep her company. This post was sent anonymously, we can't trace the address…"

The post revealed that Jiang Xiaofei was being kept by a certain billionaire.

Although such a thing isn't new at Wang Yu's school.

But no one has ever posted something like this on the forum, publicly naming who it is.

This time it's different.

Thousands of people now know Jiang Xiaofei; she's become famous.

And the post spread further.

"Aren't your leaders doing anything?"

Zhao Xiaoyang frowned and said.

Wang Yu frowned and said, "The post has already been deleted, but the impact is already huge. If we can't find who made it and get them to apologize, Xiao Fei won't be able to stay at school any longer."

Zhao Xiaoyang sneered, "Just apologizing and calling it a day is too cheap; I need to make the poster remember the lesson for the rest of their life!"

Wang Yu asked, "Should we tell Brother Feng about this?"

Zhao Xiaoyang replied, "Of course we should tell him! But this is just a minor issue, no need for my brother to get involved. I'll handle it myself."

After that, he said to Wang Yu, "Some matters can be settled with money."

Qi Yao took a shower and returned to her room.

She found Lin Feng with his eyes closed, as if asleep.

So she carefully lifted the blanket and lay down.

Suddenly, Lin Feng opened his eyes.

"Yao Yao, could you do me a favor?"

Lin Feng pulled Qi Yao into an embrace, his face apologetic, and said.

Qi Yao whispered, "No trouble, you can do it like this from now on!"

Lin Feng laughed happily, pinching Qi Yao's cheek.
