Chapter 317: Chapter 0318: The Punishment is Not Enough [Part 1]

On the first floor, there were only Qin Mei and Chu Feng. Qin Mei kept her head down, fiddling with her fingers. She really seemed like a child who had done something wrong.

Chu Feng looked at his sister-in-law and found it both amusing and heart-wrenching.

Qin Mei had been only twenty-two when she got engaged to his elder brother, and now she was merely twenty-five. It was a age full of fantasies, and there was nothing wrong with Qin Mei knowing Ye Junyu.

The mistake might have been that he cared too much about Qin Mei, but Chu Feng couldn’t help not caring about her.

"Xiao Feng... about me and that Ye Junyu..." Finally, Qin Mei was ready to speak first.

Chu Feng interrupted Qin Mei, smiling as he said, "Sister-in-law. You look really pretty in that dress today, I saw you bought it, but I thought you were going to wear it for me to see."

Qin Mei, hearing what Chu Feng said, realized that Chu Feng no longer cared about her thing with Ye Junyu.

With her head lowered, she said, "I thought you didn’t see me buying this dress."

Chu Feng said, "Of course I saw it, but when sister-in-law, you came back, you were also carrying another piece of clothing, and I didn’t feel comfortable asking about it."

"Another piece of clothing?" Qin Mei also carefully recalled what other clothes she had bought back besides this one.

"I don’t remember buying any other clothes," Qin Mei said after racking her brains for a while.

Chu Feng somewhat awkwardly said, "There was, sister-in-law. You’ve forgotten, you were carrying a lot of things and accidentally dropped them on the ground, and the bags even spilled out."

"Ah! You saw it!" When Chu Feng said this, Qin Mei also remembered.

At that time, she was bringing clothes back, holding many things, and she accidentally dropped a delicate little pouch on the ground.

Chu Feng touched his nose embarrassingly and said, "Yes, sister-in-law, I saw everything. I was afraid you would feel embarrassed, so I could only pretend not to see."

Upon hearing Chu Feng’s words, Qin Mei also blushed profusely. Clearly, she was very aware of what was in that delicate little pouch.

However, Qin Mei then suddenly grabbed Chu Feng’s ear, saying, "You saw everything at that time, yet you still pretended not to see, letting me deal with that mess by myself."

"Sister-in-law! Ouch! Go easy! Wasn’t I just trying not to embarrass you? After all, that piece of clothing was really something," Chu Feng pleaded as he spoke.

Qin Mei then let go, saying, "Really something? Explain yourself clearly. Don’t you think it looked good on me?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Feng’s eyes lit up, and he said, "Beautiful! Definitely beautiful! Sister-in-law, you are naturally gorgeous, and anything looks good on you. Especially that kind of clothing, it’s even more beautiful on you."

"Eh! Sister-in-law, you are wearing that today, aren’t you?" Chu Feng looked down at Qin Mei’s legs as he said.

Upon hearing Chu Feng’s words, Qin Mei’s cheeks flushed slightly; indeed, she was wearing the piece she had bought last time.

"Sister-in-law, see, I told you it looks gorgeous. Absolutely stunning, isn’t it?" Chu Feng complimented.

Qin Mei released Chu Feng’s ear, saying, "Smooth talker."

Chu Feng chuckled and said, "Sister-in-law, it’s a good thing we met today, otherwise, such a beautiful sister-in-law like you might have been tricked away by that jerk."

Qin Mei looked down and said, "There’s nothing going on between him and me. And I don’t feel anything for him; I agreed to go out with him just because he had helped me with something."

Chu Feng sternly said, "Sister-in-law, I must criticize you for that."

Qin Mei walked with her head low and did not speak, clearly waiting for Chu Feng to criticize her.

Seriously, Chu Feng said, "Sister-in-Law, if you have any trouble, why don’t you come to me first? How could you let that jerk benefit? If you asked me, I would have solved it for you. Wouldn’t you agree to go out with me just the same? Besides, I think taking me out would have given you much more face than him. Most importantly, those clothes were meant for me to see anyway. Even if you got drunk with me and I accidentally saw something, wouldn’t it still be just keeping it within the family?"

Hearing Chu Feng’s words, Qin Mei also turned crimson, then she grabbed Chu Feng’s ear, scolding, "You little rascal, even daring to tease your sister-in-law, today I must beat you to death."

"Sister-in-Law, I admit my mistake! I admit my mistake..." Chu Feng dared not fight back and could only beg for mercy over and over.

The two of them fooled around for a bit, and the awkwardness between them also vanished.

Looking at Qin Mei in front of him, Chu Feng said, "Sister Mei, from now on I’ll only call you Sister Mei, never Sister-in-Law again, is that okay?"

Qin Mei hesitated for a moment and then shyly nodded her head, saying, "Okay."

Chu Feng said, "Sister Mei, I think I can take care of you for a lifetime, even though I..."

Qin Mei held her hand over Chu Feng’s mouth, saying, "Xiao Feng, I know what you want to say, you don’t have to say it, I already know. I won’t be foolish enough to go look for other men in the future."

Qin Mei paused, jokingly said, "But you also have to take care of me for a lifetime."

Chu Feng said happily, "Of course. Even for two lifetimes, as long as Sister Mei, you don’t despise me."

Pausing for a moment, Chu Feng hesitated, then said, "Sister Mei, actually, my master told me that in their world, men can have multiple wives and concubines, and also..."

Before Chu Feng could finish, he felt his ear being tugged again, saying, "You little rascal, you are so young and already up to no good. Thinking about having multiple wives and concubines already, do you think you are the Emperor?"

Chu Feng said, "Sister Mei, really, my master told me this, if you don’t believe me you can ask my master."

Qin Mei pinched harder, saying, "Now lying and dragging your master into it, today you are punished to sleep in the living room. If I see you sleeping in the room tomorrow, you’ll be in big trouble."

After finishing, Qin Mei also twisted her waist and went upstairs.

Chu Feng muttered, "It really was what my master said. And who knows, maybe my master did just that?"

"Achoo!"

Zhang Shisan, far away in Yanjing, also mysteriously sneezed.

"It’s that person again talking about me, this old man," Zhang Shisan said.

After watching Qin Mei go upstairs, Chu Feng was also very happy inside. Today Qin Mei agreed to let him call her Sister Mei, which meant that the shackle of "sister-in-law" was completely broken.

This meant that Qin Mei would no longer have any psychological burdens.

"Am I being too fickle?" Chu Feng also questioned himself.

But soon, Chu Feng denied his own doubts. Because for him, this was also a form of care for them. Chu Feng didn’t believe anyone else could offer them happiness better than he could.

Thinking of happiness, a cold gleam flashed through Chu Feng’s eyes. He thought of Ye Junyu, the person who nearly destroyed his sister-in-law’s happiness.

For such a person, merely causing physical pain was far from adequate punishment.
