Chapter 284: Chapter 188: The Living Dead!_4

"I just don’t know how to let everyone know."

Upon seeing Tang Fei return, Chen Tianqi winked at him, then took the initiative to greet him, "Tang Fei, this is Qin Shuang... You’ve already met, haven’t you? Miss Qin Shuang is here at our little courtyard as my guest, by my invitation."

"Oh, Miss Qin Shuang..." Tang Fei nodded, not wanting to get involved in their mess, and said, "You two have a good chat, I have something to take care of and will leave first."

Having said that, he lifted his foot to go upstairs.

"Stop right there." Qin Shuang called out sharply.

Tang Fei turned around and looked at Qin Shuang, asking, "Miss Qin Shuang, are you calling me?"

"It’s you I’m talking to," Qin Shuang said.

Tang Fei looked at Chen Tianqi and said, "This isn’t right, is it? You’re the distinguished guest invited by Chen Tianqi, yet you’re pulling me into this... If others find out, it won’t be good for Miss Qin Shuang’s reputation."

"..."

"Besides, Chen Tianqi will be heartbroken. Wouldn’t you agree, Tianqi?"

"Yeah, Tang Fei just got back from outside, he must be exhausted, right? Let him go take a bath, rest up properly..." Chen Tianqi, too, was trying to smooth things over and spoke up, "If you want to talk to him about something, why don’t we wait until he has rested... we can find a special time to have a good chat, okay?"

Qin Shuang ignored Chen Tianqi’s words, didn’t even deign to look at him directly.

From the moment Tang Fei came back, her gaze stayed fixed on Tang Fei’s face, and she accused, "Was it you who did such a nice job?"

"I’ve done many nice jobs, which one are you referring to?"

Qin Shuang pointed at Chen Tianqi and said, "He comes to my yard every day to challenge me, is that your plan? Did you tell him to disturb my peace and ruin my cultivation?"

"How could that be? How could I possibly do something like that?" Tang Fei, appearing utterly exasperated, said, "I can control a person’s body, but can I manipulate a person’s true feelings?"

"How Chen Tianqi really feels about you, can’t you feel it yourself? Is that something I could manipulate?"

Qin Shuang glanced at Chen Tianqi; she knew he liked her, and she could still sense that.

People who talk less are often smarter because they have more time to think.

Qin Shuang was cold by nature, but extremely intelligent.

Otherwise, she couldn’t have honed her swordsmanship to such a level, standing out among many young talents from prestigious families, and been admitted to White Crane Academy.

"I know, it’s your trickery," Qin Shuang spoke out, "Ever since I challenged you to a sword fight, he’s been coming to challenge me... proclaiming loudly that you introduced him, that you had informed me... When did I ever say I wanted to fight him?"

Tang Fei was actually feeling a bit embarrassed inside.

To get rid of the nuisance that was Qin Shuang, he had made up a story on the fly.

He thought Qin Shuang would never accept Chen Tianqi’s challenge, that even speaking one more word to him would be very unlikely.

Who could have expected that she would accept Chen Tianqi’s invitation to visit the small courtyard so quickly?

And to confront him in front of Chen Tianqi...

Confrontation?

What was there to fear about something without evidence?

So, he widened his eyes at Qin Shuang, feigning shock as if to say how could you not keep your word, added a hint of grievance, and spoke, "Have you forgotten what you yourself said? Back in Stone Forest, you wanted to challenge me to a sword fight, I said I was no match for you..."

"But I have a roommate named Chen Tianqi, with swordsmanship so divine, capable of fighting you... You said it would be no true victory... So when I came back, I told Tianqi... You’re not recognizing your own words now?"

"You..." Qin Shuang’s eyes widened even more, her chest heaved with anger as she said, "When did I ever say such a thing? When did I say it would be no true victory?"

"Forget it, forget it, if you don’t want to admit it, then so be it, I have nothing else to say to you..." Tang Fei waved his hand, adopting the defeated look of I’m hurt, I’ll lie down and let you all do whatever you want, annoyed, he said, "In the end, it’s all your own matter, and it has nothing to do with me... Whether you compete or not... ’The way is different, do not seek to conspire.’"

Having said that, he stormed upstairs.

"..." Qin Shuang.

"..." Chen Tianqi.
