Chapter 136: Chapter 0136: Confusing Ourselves

Su Qi cleared her throat twice and said with a mischievous laugh, "This matter might actually make you ’sell yourself’."

"What?"

Lin Yingying’s eyes widened in shock.

After laughing and holding her stomach for a while, Su Qi finally spoke seriously, "No joking now, we must investigate Chu Feng thoroughly. Other channels won’t work, we can only do it through the people around him. Long Fei is his brother and should know something. I’m afraid you’re the only one who can pull off this honey trap."

Blushing, Lin Yingying pondered and then asked, "Is this really necessary?"

"It is necessary," replied Su Qi. "I’m starting to suspect someone among the shareholders is secretly supporting Chu Feng. They wouldn’t set up such an elaborate scheme just for a minor position."

Lin Yingying nodded and agreed, "Alright, for the company’s sake, I’ll sacrifice my charm as a sister!"

Su Qi giggled, stood up, and bid her farewell.

Touching the jade pendant on her neck, Lin Yingying muttered to herself, "You couldn’t possibly be that betrothed child, could you?"

In the security room, Long Fei, while answering questions on his phone, suddenly sneezed, startling Xu Dong, who was practicing his horse stance.

Concerned, he asked, "Boss, are you not feeling well?"

Shaking his head, Long Fei opened his cup, took a sip of tea, and said, "No, someone’s probably thinking about me!"

Xu Dong chuckled, "It must be Sister Little Ya!"

"Probably!"

Long Fei smiled, opened WeChat, and messaged Wang Xiaoya, "What are you up to?"

After a while, Wang Xiaoya replied, "Prepping vegetables!"

Showing concern, Long Fei said, "Don’t touch cold water, be careful or you’ll get a tummy ache!"

Wang Xiaoya felt a warmth in her heart, sent back a smiley face, and followed up with, "I’m almost done for today."

Swallowing hard, Long Fei grew restless and suggested, "Then, tonight could we find a place to ’exchange techniques’?"

"Get lost, you hooligan!"

Wang Xiaoya muttered softly and sent an embarrassed emoji.

Long Fei laughed, her coquettish voice was so enticing, it made him itch with anticipation.

He opened a group-buying website and started searching for hotels.

Xu Dong was gearing up for a second spring, so as the elder brother, he had to at least get things rolling.

He searched and booked a room at a hot spring hotel on the mountain.

The first time had to be romantic, no matter what.

However, the hotel was quite popular, and Long Fei had to put it off for a few days, booking it for Saturday.

As work was about to finish, Long Fei contacted Chu Feng and repeated the entire story about Zhang Yue and Zhou Xiaoqi wanting to reconcile.

Chu Feng told him that he had to visit Zheng Tuo’s home that evening.

He also asked Long Fei to relay to Zhang Yue and Zhou Xiaoqi that this was just an investigation, a formality, so they shouldn’t worry.

Curious, Long Fei asked, "What are you doing at Zheng Tuo’s place?"

Chu Feng joked, "Zheng Tuo is looking to recruit me as a son-in-law, so of course I have to pay a visit!"

"Buzz off!"

Long Fei replied with a laughing face and didn’t chat any further.

He opened Zhang Yue’s WeChat and relayed everything Chu Feng had said to Zhang Yue.

Zhang Yue, who had not been nervous, suddenly felt his heart jump into his throat.

As the HR manager for so many years, whenever he had to fire someone, for fear of causing a commotion, he would always reassure them it was no big deal.

But once the decision came down from above, he would turn his back on them, launching a sudden strike.

In this way, even if the employees were resentful, they had no chance to vent.

Now that Chu Feng had spoken this way, it was clear he was not going to let them off easily.

Zhang Yue contacted Zhou Xiaoqi immediately and called her over to strategize.

After work, Long Fei smoked a cigarette at the entrance, waiting for Wang Xiaoya to come down.

That’s when Zhang Yue and Zhou Xiaoqi came down the stairs together.

Seeing them, Long Fei took the initiative to wave and greet the duo.

Both of them felt Long Fei was gloating and turned their faces coldly, ignoring him.

Long Fei awkwardly lowered his hand and cursed under his breath, "Damn, I helped you guys, why are you all giving me those looks?"

After Wang Xiaoya came down, she saw Long Fei standing at the door with a dark face.

She walked over with a sweet smile and asked curiously, "What’s wrong, who made you angry again?"

Long Fei shook his head and motioned for Wang Xiaoya to sit on the bicycle.

He told her about the situation with Zhang Yue and Zhou Xiaoqi, fuming, "Xiaoya, doesn’t that show they have no conscience? I kindly helped them, and they didn’t even say thank you."

Wang Xiaoya giggled and teased him, "Are you really clueless or just pretending?"

Long Fei frowned, "Clueless about what?"

Wang Xiaoya explained, "Workplace unwritten rules! Usually, when a leader says there’s nothing wrong, it usually means there is an issue. Chu Feng’s words clearly mean he’s not going to let them off. Think about it, if they were really fine, there would be no need for this pretense."

"So that’s how it is."

Long Fei’s brows tightened, he really learned something new.

He dropped Wang Xiaoya off downstairs and when she got off the bike, pulling her hand, he whispered mysteriously, "Xiaoya, I have a surprise for you on Saturday!"

Wang Xiaoya’s face turned red as she pursed her lips, "What surprise?"

Long Fei replied with a smile, "Surprises are meant to be secrets. If you knew now, how would it be a surprise?"

"You’re incorrigible!"

Wang Xiaoya laughed and teasingly wrinkled her nose at him, "Don’t think I don’t know, you just want to sleep with me, right?"

"Can’t we use more subtle words?"

Long Fei coughed twice, not expecting her to see right through him.

Wang Xiaoya chuckled, "What, are you getting shy now?"

Long Fei raised his head, "Joke’s on you, why would a big guy like me feel shy!"

Wang Xiaoya wrapped her arms around his neck, teasing him playfully, "Then do you dare to come upstairs with me right now?"

"If we’re going upstairs, let’s do it. As long as you’re not scared, it’s fine!"

Long Fei tried to scare her, parked the bike properly and got ready to go upstairs.

However, Wang Xiaoya was not afraid at all and even eagerly pulled him to go up.

Long Fei felt a pang of emotion, thinking that girls nowadays are more forward than men, truly a sign of changing times.

Having said all that, not going would be an embarrassment for a man.

The two went upstairs, Wang Xiaoya opened the door and invited him in.

After spending so much time together, this was Long Fei’s first visit to Wang Xiaoya’s rented place.

Zhang Li was already back, sitting on the sofa, patting lotion on her cheeks.

When she saw Long Fei, she quickly pulled down her nightgown over her thighs and said with a gentle laugh, "What a rare guest! What brings Captain Long to our humble abode?"

Long Fei stood at the door, full of embarrassment, "I’m fine, just worried about Little Ya being afraid of the dark, so I escorted her up. Now she’s back, I should be on my way."

The room was small, but very clean.

The floor was shining, and Long Fei hesitated to step inside, afraid of getting it dirty.

Wang Xiaoya was amused by his actions, basking in her triumph.

She didn’t insist on making Long Fei stay, the house wasn’t hers alone.

With Zhang Li around, it would be inconvenient for Long Fei to stay.

After Long Fei left, she stuck her head out, giggling, "Scaredy-cat, if you’re brave, don’t run away!"

"Okay, you win, happy now?"

Long Fei laughed and pushed her head back in, helping her close the door.

He knew Wang Xiaoya was just fooling around, even if he stayed, nothing would happen.

Better save his energy for Saturday to deal with this troublemaker.

He went downstairs and pedaled away on his bicycle.

When he passed by a fast-food restaurant, he bumped into Zhang Yue and Zhou Xiaoqi again.

This time he had learned his lesson and as he passed by them, he stared at them without saying a word.

The two frowned at him and after he left, Zhang Yue cursed, "Did you see that? A small man triumphant. Knowing that I’m in trouble, he must be thrilled right now!"
