Chapter 689: Bi Yue's Psychological Issues

October 3rd.

Lin Feng and Liu Huixi spent the whole morning shopping, and only returned to the old house after having lunch outside.

Liu Huixi wore a pretty outfit, with a happy smile on her face.

"Shang Xun, have some tea!"

Liu Huixi carried a cup of brewed tea and placed it in front of Lin Feng.

Lin Feng lifted it, took a sip, and widened his eyes.

Such a familiar taste.

"This tea…"

Lin Feng frowned and said.

Liu Huixi replied, "It was sent from the Sihe Courtyard; Shang Xun, your daily necessities and the like are arranged every day…"

After Liu Huixi finished explaining, Lin Feng realized the tea was Qian Miaomiao's "Snowy Kiln".

Eunuch Shi's tea, called Snowhorn Dragon, is refined through forty‑nine steps of processing.

Modern technology is advanced, allowing many craft steps to be saved.

For example, air‑drying can be done with a dryer.

Baking and other processes also have dedicated machines.

What used to take several months can now be shortened to a few days.

Lin Feng casually said "Snowy Kiln," and Snowhorn Dragon changed its name.

"I actually don't like this tea. If Miaomiao makes more of it, put it away first! Don't let her find out,"

Lin Feng thought for a moment and said to Liu Huixi.

"Alright!"

Liu Huixi nodded.

At that moment, Bi Yue walked into the living room.

Liu Huixi glanced at Bi Yue and left on her own.

Only Bi Yue and Lin Feng remained in the living room.

Lin Feng had just said he didn't like Qian Miaomiao's tea, yet now he lifted the cup.

The taste was actually quite good.

Yesterday, Bi Yue saw Lin Feng still wearing a look full of resentment.

Now, her gaze at Lin Feng was evasive, as if fearful and shy.

Lin Feng asked with a smile, "Awake?"

Bi Yue nodded, "More than two hours."

"Sit!"

Lin Feng pointed to the sofa opposite.

Bi Yue sat on the sofa, looked up at Lin Feng, and after meeting his gaze, lowered her head again.

"You aren't being serious, are you?" Lin Feng asked with a grin.

Bi Yue remained silent, but her expression answered him.

Lin Feng said calmly, "Whether you were serious or just putting on this act, the bet between us is yours to lose, so…"

"I know!"

Bi Yue nodded and said, "I will tell you everything I know.

Actually you underestimated Eunuch Shi… Miss Shi; what the four of us know may not be more than she does."

After I woke up, I felt conflicted.

I want to help you, yet it feels like a betrayal."

"Heh~"

Lin Feng laughed, "Bi Yue, after our deep exchange we both know what kind of people we are, so you needn't say that."

Bi Yue stood, sat beside Lin Feng, wrapped her arm around his, and said, "I'm not what you think; I truly want to forget you, but I can't!"

Bi Yue stood up, sat beside Lin Feng, put her arm around his arm and said: "I'm not what you think, I really like you! Your Majesty, I want to forget you, but I can't!"

Lin Feng looked down at Bi Yue, thinking the woman was too immersed in the role.

Isn't it just that in the dream, he relied on an AK with infinite ammo, subjugated a few generals, seized dozens of cities to become emperor for a few days, and even made Bi Yue empress for a few days—so why this?

Seeing Lin Feng's surprised expression, Bi Yue hugged his leg and said, "Zhuang Zhou dreamed of a butterfly, or the butterfly dreamed of Zhuang Zhou; this world is so ambiguous, hard to discern truth from illusion.

Seeing Lin Feng's surprised look, Bi Yue put her arm around his leg and said: "Zhuang Zhou dreamed of a butterfly, or the butterfly dreamed of Zhuang Zhou—this world is truly illusory, hard to tell what's real."

"Perhaps this is our past life?"

Lin Feng reminded Bi Yue, "Have you seen any such record in history books? You created the Illusion Realm yourself, aren't you clear about it?"

"To you it's false, to me it's real; anyway… you can't abandon me, otherwise I'd rather die."

She said, then drew a dagger from her sleeve and pressed it across her own throat.

Lin Feng looked at Bi Yue's resolute demeanor, sighed helplessly and said, "Fine! Do whatever you want!"

Why do such troubles keep finding me?

Lin Feng felt he should reflect seriously.

He's already pretty trash, so in the past two years Lin Feng has rarely bothered other women.

But there's no way around it; a wandering calamity like him draws women's attention wherever he goes.

Like gold nuggets among a pile of iron slag.

Just like the gold within a massive heap of iron dregs.

"Your Majesty……"

"Don't call me like that; I just played a virtual game."

"Husband!"

"What a sour feeling!"

"Dear?"

"This form of address isn't appropriate now; it's easy to cause misunderstanding."

"Hubby!"

"I feel it doesn't quite match your temperament."

"Young master!"

"Huh? This is good!"

"Although Bi Yue seemed possessed, Lin Feng still didn't let his guard down."

"Because this woman's attitude changed too quickly."

"Although this change is quite reasonable."

"From a psychological perspective, Bi Yue has had a strong victim mentality since childhood."

"There's nothing to be done; that's how that era shaped people."

"Just like the subjects under my Qing dynasty, they've become numb, lacking any independent personality."

"In ancient times, women's status was inherently low."

"What's more, it was the chaotic and cruel era of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms."

"After Eunuch Shi rescued Bi Yue, she has relied on him ever since."

"Now, she's simply switched to relying on someone stronger."

"How about this!"

Lin Feng thought for a moment and said: "Don't dwell on it; tell me everything you know, and I'll only let Eunuch Shi go later."

"You know that opposing her won't end well; to save her, you had no choice."

"Besides, for all these years, Eunuch Shi has just treated you like antiques."

"Has she ever truly considered your feelings?"

"After Lin Feng's lecture, Bi Yue nodded and said, 'Actually, it's not for that reason.'"

"What reason?"

"Lin Feng asked."

Bi Yue said: "I'm afraid that if I betray Eunuch Shi, you'll think I'm heartless and won't like me."

"As for Eunuch Shi, frankly, we four know why she saved us and took us in."

"If needed, she would abandon us at any moment."

"No wonder she's versed in psychology; Bi Yue saw through Eunuch Shi's motive for taking them in long ago."

"When Eunuch Shi first met Lin Feng, wasn't it just exchanging those four women and Lin Feng for an arm of the young witch?"

Lin Feng chuckled and said: "You make us sound so righteous, but I've never considered myself a good person."

"In conduct and deed, I've never placed myself on the side of justice; frankly, we're just a shameless couple, right?"

"Mm! Young master, you're absolutely right!"

"Bi Yue nodded."

"Lin Feng lifted Bi Yue's beautiful chin."

"Bi Yue closed her eyes and lifted her head."

"Lin Feng just loves these ancient women, so obedient."

"A moment later, Lin Feng stopped."

"Bi Yue's eyes were already brimming with tears, looking at Lin Feng with a sense of grievance."

"Women who have been empresses are just this sensitive."

"Not today; maybe next time! I still need to see that fish today!"

"Lin Feng explained."

Bi Yue gave an "mm" and said: "Young master, be careful; Chen Yu's ability— that artifact is just a facade; she can truly freeze people to death."

"What?"

"Lin Feng was very surprised."

Bi Yue said: "Eunuch Shi used elixirs to cultivate many dead warriors, and women like us."

"We're no longer ordinary; I, Chen Yu, Luoyan, and Xiuhua can live peacefully to this day because we each have our own abilities."

"Bi Yue unhesitatingly sold out Chen Yu, Luoyan, and Xiuhua."

"She even revealed the techniques she had kept for herself."

"Bi Yue's signature skills, besides hypnosis technique, include a formidable disguise technique."

"The disguise technique combined with her hypnosis technique can let the other party truly know themselves,"

"which means making them blind."

"Once blind, they see nothing; on a moonless night, not even their own hand is visible."

"(⊙⊙)"

"Lin Feng stared, dumbfounded."

"He pinched Bi Yue's cheek, confirming it was live collagen."

"Bi Yue was taken away by Liu Huixi."

Immediately afterward, Liu Huixi began to inspect her subordinates.

This made the atmosphere in the old residence extremely tense.

Fortunately, after the DNA test, all her subordinates turned out to be trustworthy.

Seeing Liu Huixi let out a sigh of relief, Bi Yue wore a helpless expression and said, "Even if I hypnotized your subordinates and changed their identities, I wouldn't tell the young master about this matter."

Besides, disguise techniques aren't as miraculous as you imagine; after watching today's livestream, you'll see that modern disguise techniques are truly impressive!

Liu Huixi said, "People like you are the most frightening, because no one can guess what you're thinking. Don't think that just because you showed loyalty to Brother Shang Xun, he'll trust you."

Having said that, Liu Huixi turned and left.

Bi Yue's eyes reddened, and she murmured, "I'll prove it to him!"

After saying that, she again muttered to herself, "It's clearly fake—why are you still indulging in it? Wake up! No, I want it this way; I don't want to live like before…"

At the same moment, in the living room, Chen Yu sat on the sofa opposite Lin Feng.

This is a person from the Qin dynasty!

She has seen Qin Shi Huang.
