This was Li Feng’s first time entering Hu Yuanyuan’s presidential office.
Hu Yuanyuan’s office was spacious, covering a full 200 square meters. The carved wooden door opened to a luxurious marble floor, with velvet wallpaper lining the walls. On the left, a row of rustic bookshelves stood neatly filled with various books.
To the right, a French leather sofa was arranged, surrounded by potted plants for decoration. Sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows’ white curtains, illuminating the entire room brightly.
Directly ahead was a large executive desk. As soon as Hu Yuanyuan entered, she sat behind it, then looked at Li Feng and said, “Whatever it is, say it now.”
“I’ve recruited the personnel for the security company, but I don’t know much about company registration, so I need you to handle that,” Li Feng said.
“No problem, I’ll pass it to Assistant Xu to deal with later. Anything else? If not, you can leave,” Hu Yuanyuan replied.
Li Feng smiled, pulled out the chair in front of the executive desk, sat down facing Hu Yuanyuan, who looked angry, and grinned, “I got tired dealing with Sun Xipeng earlier, just let me rest here for a bit.”
“You… do you believe I’ll have security throw you out right now?” Hu Yuanyuan’s expression darkened.
Heh!
Li Feng said nonchalantly, “You sure your security guards are a match for me?”
Hu Yuanyuan was stunned, recalling Li Feng’s formidable skills. She sighed helplessly, realizing that not only the security on this floor but all the guards in Xiangfeng Investment Company combined probably couldn’t match Li Feng.
Thinking of how he took down Sun Xipeng’s four bodyguards in the blink of an eye, she was even more certain of his extraordinary abilities. Coming from a military family, she could tell at a glance that those bodyguards were ex-military.
Hu Yuanyuan never understood how Li Feng had such incredible skills, skills that couldn’t have been developed overnight. Why had she never heard of this before?
She had to admit, Li Feng was becoming more mysterious, sparking her curiosity to uncover his secrets.
“Li Feng, you’re affecting my work by being here,” Hu Yuanyuan said.
“I can stay quiet, I won’t disturb you,” Li Feng said, his eyes gleaming as he looked at her. Sitting in the executive chair, Hu Yuanyuan exuded an added air of a powerful businesswoman, making her even more captivating.
“With you staring at me like that, how am I supposed to work?” Hu Yuanyuan felt uneasy under his gaze.
“Then I’ll close my eyes,” Li Feng said, shutting his eyes. With his divine sense, he could still see everything clearly even with his eyes closed.
“You…” Hu Yuanyuan glared at him angrily. At this moment, Li Feng was like sticky candy, making her both furious and helpless.
She decided to ignore him. If she couldn’t drive him out, she’d treat him as invisible, as long as he stayed quiet.
But soon, Hu Yuanyuan realized how naive her plan was. Even if Li Feng didn’t speak or move, she could feel his intense gaze on her, as if she were standing before him without clothes.
Yet every time she looked up, Li Feng sat there motionless, eyes closed, like a monk in meditation. This puzzled her, was it her imagination?
Hu Yuanyuan didn’t know that Li Feng possessed divine sense, beyond ordinary perception. Though his eyes were closed, he was watching her with his divine sense, and since she was unaware of its existence, he didn’t worry about being caught, observing her unabashedly.
The only surprise for Li Feng was how sharp Hu Yuanyuan’s instincts were, sensing that he was watching her.
The next hour was the most agonizing for Hu Yuanyuan. She kept glancing at Li Feng, but each time, he sat there unmoving, eyes still closed, without the slightest change.
She grew puzzled. If Li Feng was acting, it was an incredibly tough act. If not, then his willpower…
Wait!
Hu Yuanyuan realized something. Li Feng’s skills were exceptional, whether it was saving Yu Ping last time or handling Sun Xipeng’s bodyguards earlier, his prowess was undeniable, rivaling even her father’s elite guards. Such a person’s willpower wouldn’t be weak.
Her father’s guards could stand still for a day and night without flinching, so an hour was probably child’s play for Li Feng.
That damned jerk, she nearly fell for his trick.
Hu Yuanyuan was inwardly annoyed. Not to mention an hour, with Li Feng’s willpower, a day and night would likely be easy. She had hoped he’d get restless and leave, but it seemed she’d be the one unable to endure.
“Li Feng, have you had enough?” Finally, Hu Yuanyuan couldn’t keep up the standoff and spoke angrily.
“What’s wrong? I haven’t disturbed you, have I?” Li Feng looked at her ‘confusedly.’ Inwardly, he chuckled. He had watched her every move with his divine sense for the past hour, expecting her to last maybe half an hour, but she held out for a full hour.
“You’re affecting my work by being here. I’m asking you to leave,” Hu Yuanyuan’s tone was less domineering, but her attitude was resolute.
“I didn’t speak or make any moves, how did I affect you? I think you’re the one not focusing, sneaking glances at this handsome guy,” Li Feng replied.
You’re the one sneaking glances, handsome guy my foot…
Hu Yuanyuan cursed inwardly, but she didn’t want Li Feng to know she’d been watching him countless times in that hour, so she said, “I said you’re affecting me, so you are. Get out now.”
“Alright, being unreasonable is a woman’s privilege.”
Li Feng stood up, saying, “I’ll leave right away.”
Hu Yuanyuan looked at him in surprise, not expecting him to agree so easily. She could’ve avoided that hour of endurance.
But then she thought, was Li Feng up to something?
“Hu Yuanyuan, you’re my woman, after all. If you run into trouble like today, remember to call me. I’m your man, it’s my duty to protect you,” Li Feng said suddenly at the door, turning to face her.
Before she could respond, he quickly opened the office door and left.
A flash of anger crossed Hu Yuanyuan’s face, but after Li Feng left, it faded, replaced by a faint smile at the corners of her mouth.
Is this what it feels like to be cared for? It’s nice.
