“Zhu Yuanyang, what gift can you possibly bring?” Song Zhiyuan sneered. He never expected Zhu Yuanyang to come with a gift this time. The gift itself did not matter; what mattered was the sentiment it represented.
Zhu Yuanyang gave Song Zhiyuan a cold glance. “Young Master Song, you came to Fengyuan Group’s press conference. Surely you did not come empty-handed without a gift?”
“Zhu Yuanyang, Young Master Feng lacks for nothing. Why would he care about your gift?” Song Zhiyuan’s expression shifted slightly, but he knew in his heart that he had miscalculated today. Although he and Li Feng were allies, basic courtesy and reciprocity were still necessary.
“That depends on what the gift is.” Zhu Yuanyang sneered at Song Zhiyuan, then turned to Li Feng and said, “Young Master Feng, why not open it and see?”
“Open it now?” Li Feng took the gift box from Zhu Yuanyang, looking at her with some confusion.
Zhu Yuanyang nodded with a smile.
“Young Master Feng, let me see what gift Zhu Yuanyang has prepared.” Song Zhiyuan approached Li Feng and said.
“Very well.” Li Feng opened the gift box. Upon seeing what was inside, his expression changed. He looked coldly at Zhu Yuanyang and said, “Zhu Yuanyang, what is the meaning of this?”
“Young Master Feng, do you not like my gift?” Zhu Yuanyang was puzzled by Li Feng’s reaction. In her view, Li Feng should have been overjoyed upon seeing her gift. Why did he have such an expression?
“Like it?” Li Feng sneered and said, “I never use such things.”
“Young Master Feng, what is the gift?” Song Zhiyuan curiously leaned over. Li Feng’s reaction was completely unexpected. He thought Zhu Yuanyang wanted to mend relations with Li Feng, so the gift must have been carefully chosen. Yet why did Li Feng react this way?
“This, this…” Upon seeing the gift in the box, Song Zhiyuan’s expression became particularly colourful.
“Zhu Yuanyang, oh Zhu Yuanyang, I never imagined you would give such a gift and say Young Master Feng needs it now. Are you not hinting at something towards Young Master Feng?” Song Zhiyuan laughed loudly, his tone full of triumph. He had been worried that Zhu Yuanyang would reconcile with Li Feng, but he never expected her gift to be this.
“Song Zhiyuan, what do you mean? This gift was carefully selected by me.” Zhu Yuanyang looked coldly at Song Zhiyuan and said.
“Carefully selected? Exactly. Zhu Yuanyang, I said why you still refuse to admit hinting at Young Master Feng. I never thought, never thought you, Zhu Yuanyang, would be so bold as to do something like this.” Song Zhiyuan shook his head and sighed.
“Zhu Yuanyang, I need an explanation. Are you humiliating me?” Li Feng looked coldly at Zhu Yuanyang and said.
“Humiliating? Young Master Feng, what do you mean by that?” Zhu Yuanyang was stunned. Li Feng’s attitude and reaction were too strange. Even if he did not like her gift, there was no need for this.
“Young Master Feng, I never meant to humiliate you. Today I came sincerely to befriend you.” Zhu Yuanyang said solemnly.
“Befriend?” Li Feng’s gaze fell on Zhu Yuanyang. Today she wore a red Suzhou embroidered qipao, her face beautiful as a flower, her figure curvaceous and alluring.
Li Feng smiled wickedly. “Zhu Yuanyang, if you want to befriend me, why not say so earlier? Was there any need to give me such a gift in public?”
“Hehe, I think Zhu Yuanyang is simply eager to befriend you. Otherwise she would not give you such a gift or such a big hint. I congratulate Young Master Feng here.” Song Zhiyuan laughed along.
“You all…” Zhu Yuanyang was somewhat confused, especially by the burning look in Li Feng’s eyes, which gave her an ominous feeling.
“Zhu Yuanyang, shall I leave first and let you and Young Master Feng be alone?” Song Zhiyuan said with a sly grin, his gaze making Zhu Yuanyang extremely disgusted.
“Song Zhiyuan, what do you mean?” Zhu Yuanyang asked coldly.
“Zhu Yuanyang, do you really not understand my meaning? It is exactly what you are thinking now. But Zhu Yuanyang, time is short. More guests will arrive soon, so you can only make it quick.” Song Zhiyuan smiled and said.
“What do you mean by make it quick?” Zhu Yuanyang grew more confused. Why was Song Zhiyuan saying such things? What was he implying?
“I understand, I understand. I will say no more.” Song Zhiyuan nodded with a smile, then turned to Zong Yanshan and the others. “Let us leave first and give the lounge to Young Master Feng and Zhu Yuanyang.”
Zong Yanshan and the others looked puzzled but were dragged out of the lounge by Song Zhiyuan.
“You lot, you cannot possibly disturb your young lady and Young Master Feng’s good time, can you?” Song Zhiyuan said to Zhu Yuanyang’s attendants.
Zhu Yuanyang’s attendants looked silently at her.
“Zhu Yuanyang, let them wait outside. It is inconvenient here.” Li Feng said.
Zhu Yuanyang was stunned, thinking Li Feng wanted to speak privately with her. She also wanted to talk alone with Li Feng, so she said to her attendants, “Wait for me outside.”
“Yes.”
Seeing Zhu Yuanyang’s attendants leave, Song Zhiyuan walked to the door. Just as he reached it, he turned back to Li Feng and Zhu Yuanyang. “Young Master Feng, Zhu Yuanyang, I will not disturb you. Rest assured, I will keep watch outside.” With that, he left the lounge and closed the door.
If Zhu Yuanyang represented the Zhu family and reconciled with Li Feng, Song Zhiyuan did not want to see it. But if she did something with Young Master Feng, that would be different, because Song Zhiyuan knew that once such a thing happened, Zhu Yuanyang could no longer represent the Zhu family.
However, Song Zhiyuan never expected Zhu Yuanyang to be so bold. Last time at the Imperial Hotel, she had been shouting to kill Li Feng. In just a few days, she had made such a drastic change.
“Could this be how women are?” Song Zhiyuan shook his head with a bitter smile.
In the lounge, Li Feng said to Zhu Yuanyang, “Let us sit over there and talk.”
Zhu Yuanyang nodded and elegantly sat on the sofa. After she sat, Li Feng immediately sat beside her.
Zhu Yuanyang frowned. She did not like men sitting next to her, but thinking of the conversation ahead with Li Feng, she endured the discomfort.
“Zhu Yuanyang, I already know why you came today. Rest assured, I will make sure you leave satisfied.” Li Feng looked at Zhu Yuanyang and said.
“Thank you, Young Master Feng. I never expected you to hide your talents so well, fooling everyone. Had I known you had such abilities, I should have come to Tianhai City earlier to befriend you.” Zhu Yuanyang said with a giggle.
“It is not too late now.” Li Feng turned to look at Zhu Yuanyang. He never imagined she would deliver herself to his door. For a beauty who offered herself, he would not refuse, especially since Zhu Yuanyang was the eldest daughter of the Zhu family. This would be particularly satisfying.
“Yes, it is not too late. Young Master Feng, from now on we…”
Before Zhu Yuanyang could finish, Li Feng interrupted her. “Zhu Yuanyang, time is short. Let us hurry.” With that, Li Feng reached out and grabbed her hand.
“Li Feng, what are you doing?” Zhu Yuanyang jumped up as if startled, looking warily at Li Feng.
“Zhu Yuanyang, do not be shy. There is no one else here.” Li Feng smiled, stood up, and reached for her jade hand again.
“Li Feng, what do you mean?” Zhu Yuanyang retreated sharply. She had come to befriend Li Feng, but she never expected him to take advantage of her. A flash of disappointment crossed Zhu Yuanyang’s eyes. She felt she had misjudged Li Feng.
“A moment of spring night is worth a thousand gold. Zhu Yuanyang, what is there to be shy about? Besides, is this not why you came today?” Li Feng smiled and walked towards Zhu Yuanyang, saying as he went, “I do not like using those gifts of yours, but if you want me to, it is not impossible.”
“What do you mean by a moment of spring night is worth a thousand gold? Li Feng, I do not understand you.” Zhu Yuanyang’s expression turned cold. She looked at Li Feng with some anger. Had she known Li Feng was such a lecher, she would never have come today, no matter that he was the Li family heir. What did Li Feng take her, Zhu Yuanyang, for?
“Zhu Yuanyang, only the two of us remain in this lounge. No need to play dumb with me. Time is pressing. Let us make it quick. Rest assured, no one will disturb us in this lounge.” Li Feng smiled. He thought Zhu Yuanyang was pretending, but getting such a beauty before the press conference was not bad.
“Li Feng, I misjudged you.” Zhu Yuanyang looked coldly at Li Feng, turned, and left.
“Zhu Yuanyang.” Li Feng called her back, blocking her path. “What do you mean you misjudged me? You hinted at me, and now you are unwilling. I want to ask, what exactly do you want?”
“What do you mean I hinted at you? Li Feng, do not slander me or make false accusations.” Zhu Yuanyang said coldly.
“I slander you? Make false accusations?” Li Feng sneered, raised the gift box, and said, “You gave this to me, did you not? You said I need it now and want to befriend me. If this is not a hint, what is?”
“What?” Zhu Yuanyang was stunned, unable to react. What did this have to do with the gift she gave? But Li Feng’s words did not seem baseless. Could there be a problem with her gift?
“Zhu Yuanyang, you carefully selected this gift yourself. Surely you know what it is? You still say it is not a hint to me? Hmph, look for yourself now.” Li Feng threw the gift box over.
Zhu Yuanyang opened it and her expression became extremely colourful, because inside the gift were several boxes of Durex.
