Chapter 53: Chapter 53: The Sound of a Slap in the Face

"Cousin!"

Zhang Xin stood up from the booth and looked towards the approaching Zhang Xue. Zhang Xue simply set her bag down and sat opposite her, scanning Zhang Xin with a raised eyebrow, "When did you start hooking up with that bootlicker Li Feng? Were all those things you said before in front of me intentional? Just to cover up the filthy dealings you two had in private?"

"Cousin, I’ve been wronged!"

Zhang Xin hadn’t expected Zhang Xue to think this way.

"Wronged?"

Zhang Xue never imagined her cousin would sleep with Li Feng, but that phone call was like a thorn to her. She wasn’t a petty person, yet she couldn’t accept betrayal.

Zhang Xin, observing Zhang Xue’s icy gaze, quickly clarified, "Cousin, I really am wrongly accused. That night, it was Li Feng who forced me to make that call."

"Oh, he forced you? He has the ability to force you?"

Zhang Xue was incredulous. Even if Li Feng had his moments of audacity, in her mind, he was still the same bootlicker who she could command around at home, utterly useless.

Zhang Xin bit her lip, "Cousin, when have I ever lied to you? How could I possibly be with that worthless bootlicker Li Feng? I look down on him from the bottom of my heart; I was completely coerced by him."

"Did you two sleep together?"

"No." Zhang Xin shook her head decisively, "After that call that night, he let me leave. He didn’t have the guts to do anything to me. Besides, even if he really wanted to do something, I would have fought him to the death rather than let him succeed. Who does he think he is, thinking he can sleep with me?"

Zhang Xue looked at Zhang Xin, "Really nothing?"

"Cousin, I wouldn’t be interested in that kind of bootlicking guy, okay? I’m not short on boyfriends. If it were your current husband, maybe, but definitely not Li Feng."

Hearing Zhang Xin say this, Zhang Xue snorted through her sculpted nose. She wasn’t particularly bothered by Zhang Xin having thoughts about her own husband; after all, an outstanding man would always attract other women.

"I’ll believe you this time, but stay away from that loser Li Feng in the future."

"You don’t need to tell me, cousin. I wouldn’t associate with him."

"Mm-hmm, that’s best. Do you know where that loser is staying now?" Zhang Xue asked, and Zhang Xin blinked, "I saw him at the Outer Heaven hotel the day before yesterday. I don’t know if he’s still there now."

"Cousin, what’s with this Li Feng? Where is he getting the money to stay at Outer Heaven, the biggest and best five-star hotel in Huacheng? Plus, he’s staying in the presidential suite which costs eighty-eight thousand and eight hundred per night."

Zhang Xue stood up from the booth, "He’s now acting as another woman’s dog, licking her happily and intentionally embarrassing me. Alright, you head back to school."

Zhang Xue picked up her limited-edition bag and left the café, driving straight to the Outer Heaven hotel.

"Guest, this floor is no longer open to the public."

As soon as Zhang Xue stepped out of the elevator, she was stopped by two security guards from the elevator area. Someone had attempted an assassination last night, and Bai He directly discussed with the hotel manager to seal off this entire floor, not open to the public. Even the elevators and security stairs were guarded.

"Move aside, I’m here to see Li Feng."

Zhang Xue looked at the two security guards blocking her path. This Mr. Li sure put on quite the show, a clear sign of a petty man glorying in his success, afraid that others wouldn’t know he was doing well now.

"Sorry, we haven’t received any notice, so we can’t let you through."

"Pretending to be a tiger when you’re merely a fox. Try stopping me, move," Zhang Xue commanded the two security guards with a domineering look.

"Sorry."

The security guards had been given a strict order not to let anyone through without permission. They stood firm before Zhang Xue. She reached out to push through the human wall in front of her but couldn’t move it.

"Li Feng, come out if you have the guts, don’t hide inside like a shameless scoundrel... Show yourself if you’re brave enough."

"Let her in," Bai He ordered the two guards through his Bluetooth headset.

"Yes."

The guards received the orders and stepped aside to open a pathway: "Please go ahead."

Zhang Xue snorted coldly and strode across the expensive carpet to the door of the presidential suite, pushing it open and entering the living room. There she saw Li Feng lounging on the sofa in a bathrobe, acting all high and mighty, while a young woman dressed as a maid knelt beside his feet.

Seeing Li Feng’s demeanor, Zhang Xue couldn’t help but sneer disdainfully, "Li Feng, my husband has been arrested—is this your handiwork from behind the scenes?"

Li Feng lifted his gaze to Zhang Xue, who was directly confronting him.

"Heh, you’re here to ask me that?"

"I am asking you if it is."

"No," Li Feng replied directly.

Zhang Xue looked at Li Feng with a mocking face: "Ha, you really have no balls at all, daring to act but not to own it up. No matter how much you try to show off, you’re nothing but a lickspittle, a worthless wretch at heart."

Listening to Zhang Xue’s harsh and sarcastic words, Li Feng chuckled lightly: "It seems like you don’t even understand the situation and came running to question me. When did you, Zhang Xue, become as vulgar as a fishwife?"

"Who are you calling a fishwife?"

Zhang Xue glared at Li Feng with her eyes wide.

Li Feng replied disdainfully, "No need to glare at me like that, I’m talking about you. Qi Shaobin got arrested because he reaped what he had sown, what does that have to do with me? He’s the one who ordered the killing, what does that have to do with me? What, is it my fault that he broke the law—you think I instigated it? What right do you have to question me?"

Staring at the aggressive Li Feng, Zhang Xue was momentarily speechless, then fury washed over her.

"Li Feng, what are you? How dare you talk back to me."

"Also, what’s this about you coercing my cousin? Don’t tell me this has nothing to do with you either. If you have the guts, come at me! How did I not realize before that you’re not just a loser, but also a piece of trash."

"No, ’scumbag’ would be complimenting you; you’re just the lowest of the low."

Li Feng looked at Zhang Xue with a cold expression as she hurled insults without restraint, abruptly stood up from the sofa, and walked over to Zhang Xue.

Zhang Xue, faced with Li Feng’s approach, straightened her back and coldly stared at him: "What, you want to hit me now? Go on, I dare you to try!"

Li Feng gave a chilling smile and single-handedly slapped her across the face.

Slap.

Zhang Xue was sent reeling to the floor, her cheek burning hot. She turned her head and looked up at Li Feng in disbelief: "You dare to hit me."

Li Feng bent down to look at her as she clutched her face, shock written all over her.

"You asked for it; with such a strong request, I simply couldn’t refuse."

Zhang Xue glared venomously at Li Feng: "Li, have you grown so bold as to think no one can touch you now, just because you’re bootlicking the Wei Family after acting like a lapdog? Don’t get too carried away. The Wei Family is no match for the Qi Family."

"And you’re just a dog of the Wei Family."

Li Feng gazed at Zhang Xue’s scorn, bent down, and cupped her chin, lifting her face.

"I used to think you had a beautiful face, but looking at it now, it really makes one feel the urge to slap you."
