Chapter 79: Do You Want a Reward?

Unable to figure it out for the moment, Lin Feng decided to return to Su Banking first. By now, it was already quite late. Su Qingxue had just finished her work, stretched lazily, and was getting ready to go home.

But when she realized Lin Feng still hadn’t returned, she pursed her lips in dissatisfaction and muttered, “Where has that guy been all afternoon? He still hasn’t come back. Could he have gone off to meet another woman?”

Just as she was pondering this, Lin Feng walked in from outside. She looked at him in surprise and asked, “Where did you go? I haven’t seen you all afternoon.”

“I was out with a friend, taking care of something,” Lin Feng replied. He was about to mention Bai Xiaoqian, but thought better of it at the last moment. He decided it was best not to tell Qingxue about it, in case she misunderstood.

“Hmph, fine, I’ll forgive you this time. I’ve been working all day and I’m exhausted. How about you drive us home?” Su Qingxue handed him the car keys as she spoke.

“Sure,” Lin Feng nodded, agreeing without hesitation, and left the bank with her.

As soon as they got in the car, Su Qingxue slipped off her high heels and propped her long, beautiful legs up on the dashboard. The sight made Lin Feng, who was driving, swallow hard, unable to help himself.

Those legs encased in black stockings were simply too alluring! Even the stars on TV couldn’t boast such perfect legs.

“Hey, are you going to drive or just keep staring?” Su Qingxue caught Lin Feng staring dazedly at her legs, blinked her charming eyes, and casually reminded him.

“Uh, right.” Lin Feng snapped out of it, started the car, and drove off with her.

Su Qingxue wasn’t angry; instead, she stifled a couple of giggles behind her hand, thinking to herself that he was all bark and no bite. Maybe tonight, she’d give him a little reward and see how he reacted.

Half an hour later, the two of them arrived home. As soon as they stepped inside, Su Qingxue suddenly said mysteriously, “Lin Feng, go wait for me in the bedroom in a bit. I have a surprise for you.”

“A surprise?” Lin Feng looked puzzled.

When he glanced at her again, he saw a seductive glint in her eyes as she gently bit her lip. “You men should know exactly what I mean. Go on, wait for me in the bedroom.”

“All right, but don’t keep me waiting too long,” Lin Feng replied, still unsure what she was up to. But judging by her expression, it seemed she had some mischievous plan in mind.

Oh no!

Could it be what she mentioned earlier today? After returning to the bedroom, Lin Feng suddenly recalled Su Qingxue’s promise of a reward and the new outfit she’d bought. His imagination began to run wild.

Was she really planning to…?

His heart began to race, and he grew increasingly restless. He was, after all, a young man in his prime. If he lost control of his desires, wouldn’t he be in trouble?

Trying to compose himself, he waited quietly for Su Qingxue. Soon, he heard the sound of running water from the bathroom; she seemed to be taking a shower.

Could she really be planning to…?

As the sound of water grew louder, Lin Feng’s thoughts wandered further.

Just then, his phone suddenly vibrated. Curiously, he unlocked it and saw a private photo from Su Qingxue!

In the picture, she wore a loose nightgown, showing off a perfect S-shaped figure and an enchanting expression. Most importantly, the nightgown was all in one piece and long enough to cover half her legs, yet it still left much to the imagination.

Irrefutable proof!

This had to be the prelude!

“Lin Feng, do I look beautiful?” Soon, Su Qingxue sent another message.

Lin Feng swallowed twice, hesitated for a few seconds, and replied with a single word: “Beautiful.”

“Do you want to see more?” she sent another message.

Lin Feng fell silent. How was he supposed to respond to that? Was this all a trap?

“What are you doing in the bathroom?” After some deliberation, Lin Feng dodged her question and asked one of his own.

Su Qingxue couldn’t help but laugh. Her eyes sparkled mischievously as she switched off the light and sent him another photo—this time, it was pitch black!

Lin Feng stared blankly at the dark photo, utterly confused.

Just as he was about to ask, Su Qingxue sent a playful tongue-out emoji, followed by: “That’s tonight’s surprise. The last one is for you to guess. I’m taking a shower. Go to sleep first.”

What?

Lin Feng was dumbfounded.

Staring at the earlier photo, the fire inside him showed no sign of dying down; if anything, it burned even hotter. How was this a surprise? It was more like a punishment!

He tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep, his mind filled with images of that photo and the darkness that followed.

Eventually, he gave up, sat cross-legged, and recited a calming incantation. Fortunately, his family’s cultivation technique was effective; before long, his urges faded, and he slipped into a meditative state.

The Lin family’s technique wasn’t a martial art but a cultivation method. He wasn’t sure what level he’d reached in traditional martial ranks, but based on tonight’s battle, he was at least two levels above the innate stage.

If he wanted to find his parents, he’d have to become even stronger.

Unknowingly, the whole night passed.

At dawn, Lin Feng slowly opened his eyes to hear Su Qingxue calling for him outside. He withdrew from his cultivation, got up, and walked out of the room.

The moment he opened the door, he saw Su Qingxue standing at the top of the stairs, wearing the very nightgown from the photo, looking alluring as ever. She smiled at him and playfully asked, “Did you sleep well last night? Was my surprise to your liking?”

“S-satisfied,” Lin Feng replied with an awkward laugh, only to see her frown in mock annoyance. “You rascal, still not satisfied, are you? Be honest, did you do anything while looking at my photo last night?”

“Huh? What could I have done?” Lin Feng quickly tried to play innocent.

“Still won’t admit it? I don’t believe you for a second,” Su Qingxue teased, tossing her head arrogantly.

Lin Feng felt embarrassed but instantly understood what she meant.

He never expected this side of Qingxue!

At that moment, a sudden knocking sounded at the villa door.

Lin Feng and Su Qingxue exchanged surprised glances. Who could be knocking so early in the morning?

Su Qingxue went downstairs to answer the door. As soon as she opened it, she saw Su Shifeng in his wheelchair, grinning broadly.

“Qingxue, I’m here to move in.”

“Grandmother said that from today onward, this villa belongs to me. You can start packing.”

“What did you say?” Su Qingxue’s face filled with anger, her brows knit tight. “Su Shifeng, this villa was left to me by Grandpa. Don’t push me too far.”

“Well, Lin Feng is already dead. Even if you’re unwilling, what can you do?” Su Shifeng replied with a dismissive chuckle.
