Chapter 532: Chapter 532: I Like Spicy Food

Xia Keke couldn’t possibly admit it; after all, she had acted in several spy dramas. She wasn’t one of those pretty faces without acting skills—she was a double award-winning actress.

Li Feng looked at Xia Keke, who was stubbornly denying the obvious.

"You just blurted out my name in the heat of the moment, yet I don’t recall ever introducing myself to you."

"How do you know my name is Li Feng?"

"Come on, make something up. I hope it’s more convincing."

From beginning to end, Li Feng hadn’t spotted any slip-ups, whether it was Xia Keke standing beside him or what happened afterward. He had thought he was having a romantic encounter.

Xia Keke felt a jolt in her heart. Damn, when she stood up earlier and felt a pain in her waist, she had called out Li Feng’s name without thinking.

"Heh, I called your name? You must have heard wrong."

Xia Keke tried to bluff her way through without changing her expression.

"Truly worthy of a double award-winning actress. Such top-notch acting, managing to say something so insulting to one’s intelligence without batting an eye."

"You called out quite loudly; I’m not deaf."

"Besides, when you said that, I got curious. You, a top-tier celebrity, a double award-winning actress, a national goddess—what do you want from me?"

"Are you after my money?"

"That’s possible, I suppose, considering I’m the young, successful, handsome, and wealthy chairman of Century Group."

Hearing this, Xia Keke felt a stir inside. Right, she had indeed forgotten that this man had another identity—the chairman of Century Group, recently a hot topic on the search trends, unparalleled in the limelight.

Xia Keke bit her lip. "Alright, I admit it, I’m interested in you, and that includes everything about you."

"Oh!"

Xia Keke continued looking at Li Feng. "The entertainment industry isn’t just about the glamour in front of the cameras; it also requires connections and resources. I’ve been fighting in this field for many years and have realized one truth: no matter how hard you work, it’s nothing compared to having a powerful backer."

"Half a month ago, you were all over the trending search list, so I’m aware of your situation."

"You know about me and still chose me."

Xia Keke looked at Li Feng. "You seem a bit insecure. I’ve seen all there is to see about your circumstances, and it’s nothing notable. Moreover, doesn’t it just show that you have the skills and abilities? Why else would others fail to take the position you hold?"

"With your qualifications, finding a financial backer shouldn’t be hard."

"I don’t lack fatherly love, nor do I want a ’sugar daddy.’ As for those rich heirs, they rely merely on their family, not having much to offer. At my stage, these elite rich heirs can’t provide what I need, and to them, it’s all just a game—they are never serious."

"What I need is a stable support. You’re about my age, ambitious and capable, controlling such a large group as Century Group. Naturally, you have both connections and wealth. Most importantly, you’re not from an established wealthy family; you made your way up from the grassroots, so naturally, you have fewer rules to follow."

"All things considered, you are the right person for me."

Li Feng looked at Xia Keke, disbelieving every word she said because he had led her to believe that was the case.

Yes, Li Feng was conducting a sting operation. He had purposely revealed his identity as the chairman of Century Group as a pretext for Xia Keke, providing her a plausible reason to approach him. It must be said, the actress’s ability to concoct a story on the fly was impressive.

"One more question."

"How do you know I am here?"

"Just a coincidence, would you believe that?" Xia Keke didn’t hesitate and blurted out her response.

"Why wouldn’t I believe it?"

As Li Feng spoke, he suddenly reached out, placed his hand on Xia Keke’s waist, and with a push, corrected the dislocated bone. Xia Keke cried out in agony, beads of sweat forming on her forehead.

Xia Keke cursed internally, calling them both devils.

"You can move now."

Li Feng said.

Upon hearing this, Xia Keke looked at Li Feng and subconsciously moved her waist. It seemed to no longer hurt. Supporting herself, she turned over, and it still didn’t hurt.

"Do you really know medical techniques?"

Xia Keke looked up at Li Feng.

"Of course, would I talk nonsense, especially since you’ve injured your spine?" Li Feng said, with a sly smile, eyeing Xia Keke who was dressed in her spa robe.

"You just said you were interested in me."

Li Feng reached out his hand towards Xia Keke’s chin.

Xia Keke looked at Li Feng, who seemed possessed.

Heh, men.

Feigning shyness, Xia Keke glanced at Li Feng. "I did intend it, but I planned to get to know you better first. After all, my understanding of you is just from what’s online, and the accuracy of that information is questionable."

"But I can’t wait."

Li Feng pounced, pinning Xia Keke on the bed. "To let you go now would be worse than being a beast."

"No, my face has pepper spray on it," Xia Keke covered her mouth with her hand.

Li Feng looked at Xia Keke. "No worries, I like spicy food."

Li Feng didn’t believe a word Xia Keke had just said. Her intentions surely weren’t about his money or person; everything seemed scripted, except for the part about Xia Keke’s back injury.

Why was the National Goddess trying to get close to him?

He had no enemies in Jin City. Moreover, since leaving Blue Sword Base, he had been escorted into the city by Uncle Li, and they hadn’t even gone to that particular courtyard. Who would know his whereabouts?

Li Zidong.

Li Feng’s mind instantly went to his brother.

Knowing about his departure from Blue Sword Base could only mean someone from the Li Family was involved, whether it was Li Yuncong or Uncle Li who had informed.

Li Zidong set up this beauty trap with Xia Keke for some purpose.

Purpose.

Wang Jin’er.

The alliance through marriage between the Li and Wang families.

Li Feng’s thoughts clicked. Li Zidong had arranged for Xia Keke to get close to him, and with her status as the National Goddess and a top-tier celebrity always in the spotlight, standing together with her was already scandalous. If rumors about them being in a room together got out, they wouldn’t even need solid proof, just insinuations would suffice for rampant media coverage.

With Xia Keke’s status and his position as the chairman of Century Group, this scandal could definitely make it back into the top three trending topics.

His trip to the capital this time wasn’t just for the Li family to acknowledge him, but also to formalize the engagement between the Li and Wang families.

Creating such massive scandal now would be a slap in the face for the Wang family and likewise for Li Mingrui. Li Feng would be hitting the faces of both the Li and Wang families, while Li Zidong simply needed to sit back and watch the excitement.

What a ’kill two birds with one stone’ strategy.

He hadn’t expected his brother to have such a cunning mind, now skilled in manipulations and tactics.

Xia Keke had no idea Li Feng would be so impulsive, but this was indeed fulfilling Li Zidong’s mission.
