Chapter 72: Why Are You So Good to Me?

~7 min read 1,242 words

Liang Shishi covered her mouth and nose and took a deep breath forcefully.

Then she threw the black silky lump in her hand into the washing machine.

But immediately she reached in again and pulled it out, her heart filled with reluctance.

The scent it carried fascinated her.

Looking at the object in her hand, Liang Shishi suddenly felt she was ill, and that it was a psychological problem.

All these years, she has done nothing but work and has never been interested in men.

But during this period, when she has some free time, her mind is full of Lin Feng's figure.

Then she did something unbelievable.

Should she see a psychologist?

But recalling Dr. Ai Li had said it was a normal phenomenon, she felt relieved again.

At that moment, the phone rang.

Seeing it was Lin Feng calling, she quickly answered.

"Auntie…"

Lin Feng's voice sounded.

Liang Shishi smiled faintly, "Calling me at this hour, what's the matter?"

"Um… um…"

For a moment, Lin Feng didn't know what to say.

Liang Shishi said, "How about you tell me a story! Then Auntie will forgive you."

"What story do you want to hear?"

Lin Feng asked with a smile.

He is currently on the 12th floor, in Guo Yanru's office.

It's almost nine o'clock at night.

Remembering his excessive behavior that afternoon and worrying a bit about Liang Shishi, he made this call.

Liang Shishi held the phone in one hand and moved the other slowly, "Anything you say is fine! As long as… as I hear your voice, that's enough."

"Then… I'll tell you a story about a time traveler!"

"Sss~ Sure!"

Liang Shishi replied.

"Auntie, what's wrong with you?"

Lin Feng heard Liang Shishi's tone sounding a bit odd.

Liang Shishi laughed, "It's nothing, I was washing peaches just now, my nail got snagged."

"Then be careful!"

After a brief reminder, Lin Feng began recounting the plot of an online novel he had read in a past life.

Half an hour later, Lin Feng finally finished an exciting storyline and paused.

"Alright! Auntie is going to sleep, can you continue telling me next time?"

Liang Shishi said in a lazy voice.

A strange smile had already appeared on Lin Feng's face, "Sure! Rest early, good night!"

"Good night!"

Liang Shishi hung up first.

Lin Feng gave a wry smile.

Washing peaches!

It's a peach!

He really didn't expect that this aunt, outwardly a cold noodle queen, was secretly…

Lin Feng's ears are very sharp.

Though the voice came through the phone, he heard it crystal clear.

Lin Feng didn't know whether the aunt did it unintentionally or on purpose, letting him hear.

It's half past nine at night.

Lin Feng sat in the "Stock Trading Office".

On the dozens of screens before him, information on Mi Guo stocks kept refreshing.

There were six technicians on site.

Under Lin Feng's orders, the six constantly pulled out various data.

After more than ten minutes, Lin Feng picked up the phone and dialed an encrypted landline in Xiangjiang.

The one who answered was Guo Yanru.

After the call, Guo Yanru received information on over 300 stocks that Lin Feng had sent her.

Then Guo Yanru passed these data to Jack.

Jack's team had previously thought it was the prior mode of cooperation.

Before the cooperation, they had even prepared several hundred million dollars, intending to operate covertly following Lin Feng's strategy.

But this time was completely different.

Clearly, Lin Feng already had defenses against him.

Jack can't blame Lin Feng for not trusting him; Wall Street is like that, and they are even more guarded than Lin Feng.

Since they can't do side jobs, they can only honestly help Lin Feng trade, earning commissions from the profits.

That night, more than $3 billion in capital poured into the Mi Guo stock market.

After short‑term trading, once the market closed and the numbers were tallied, the profit was $500 million.

It exceeded a percent profit.

Lin Feng glanced at the time; it was already past four in the morning.

In less than an hour, the sky over Yanjing would be bright.

"Everyone, thank you for your hard work! Salaries are doubled."

After Lin Feng finished speaking, the six technicians laughed happily.

All this hard, exhausting work—it's just for money, right?

Lin Feng reminded, "When you get home, go to sleep obediently; don't pull all‑nighters, otherwise ending up in the hospital won't be worth it."

"Got it, boss!"

"Goodbye, boss!"

After everyone left, Lin Feng let out a sigh.

I still have to go back and get Wen Keke to work!

So he forced himself to stay alert, locked the company's door, then took the elevator down.

But after driving outside, the cold wind hit him, and his spirits instantly improved a lot.

He first found a place to have breakfast, then leisurely drove the car to Xinshi Xiaoqu.

When he went upstairs, Wen Keke and Zhu Li had just gotten up.

Sitting on the sofa, Lin Feng began to nod off.

Zhu Li was the first to tidy up; seeing Lin Feng asleep, she didn't disturb him and went straight downstairs.

After Zhu Li left, Wen Keke went into the kitchen and heated a cup of Milk for Lin Feng.

"Wake up!"

Wen Keke shook Lin Feng.

Seeing Lin Feng awake, she immediately handed him the cup.

Lin Feng took the Milk and drank it in one gulp.

"Ready?"

Lin Feng set the cup down and said with a smile.

Seeing Lin Feng's dark eye circles, Wen Keke frowned and said, "How about I drive there myself?"

Lin Feng shook his head, "You drive, but I'll come along."

Wen Keke felt moved, opened her mouth, her face full of hesitation.

"Got something? Speak up!"

When Lin Feng saw Wen Keke's expression, he knew the girl had something else on her mind.

"My mother called me last night…"

Wen Keke explained that her brother had gambled away money and borrowed 500,000 in high‑interest loans.

There's a bank right below Jiachen Dasha; after work, she can find time to transfer money to her family.

Lin Feng furrowed his brows.

He despised that kind of gambling fiend the most.

In his previous life he had seen many; they could live peacefully, yet they chose to be addicted.

The end result was either bankruptcy and divorce, or jumping off a building or into a river; once caught, few ever managed to get out.

Moreover, many spend their whole lives immersed, unable to extricate themselves.

Seeing Lin Feng's sullen expression, Wen Keke grew uneasy.

She had thought she'd already caused Lin Feng plenty of trouble, but now she had to trouble him again.

In Zhu Li's words, Lin Feng must have owed her a lot of money in a past life.

Lin Feng exhaled, saying calmly, "First transfer the money, then have your father bring your brother to Yanjing."

"Your brother is a gambling dog; we should think of a way to curb him, otherwise he'll keep gambling. Since your parents can't handle him, let me discipline him for them!"

"Alright!"

Wen Keke nodded immediately.

Lin Feng stood up.

Then he saw Wen Keke sitting still.

"What's wrong?"

Lin Feng asked again.

Wen Keke whispered, "Why are you so good to me?"

Lin Feng laughed, "You're silly! Because you're beautiful, have a good personality, are gentle and virtuous, I like you and want to sleep with you!"
