Lin Zhiyan's cheeks turned hot, hesitating for a mont, she shook her head and said, "Forget it, let's save this hug for the next ti we et."
"Don't casually set flags, you know?" Xiao Feng put his hand down and scolded her: "Haven't you watched TV dramas?
Typically, those who say 'Wait for to co back, and we'll get married' never make it back."
"Then I'll take it back and hug you now." Lin Zhiyan steeled herself, took a step forward, spread her arms, and hugged Xiao Feng.
After a mont, she released her grip, stepped back two steps and said, "I'm leaving now."
"Go on, I'll wait for your return to cook for ." Xiao Feng waved.
Lin Zhiyan was stunned: "Cook?"
"Yeah." Xiao Feng nodded: "Crossing-the-bridge noodles."
"Alright, it's a deal then. When I co back, I'll cook noodles for you." Lin Zhiyan said with a smile on her lips.
Xiao Feng seriously reminded: "You're setting flags again."
"..." Lin Zhiyan.
Do I really have to cook a bowl of noodles for you right now?
...
Watching Lin Zhiyan leave, Xiao Feng suddenly felt a sense of sarcastic irony.
What sort of life do I have, where people keep leaving?
Liu Qingrou left.
Su Yuzhuo left.
Now, Lin Zhiyan also left.
Who's the next to leave?
After a long while, he withdrew his gaze and turned to walk towards his own villa.
Upon reaching the door, he saw Wang Yanmin approaching from inside.
"Consultant Xiao, you're just in ti, I was about to find you."
"What's wrong?"
"It's better if you take a look yourself." Wang Yanmin said, then led Xiao Feng towards the base of the wall.
Approaching closer, the scene in front made Xiao Feng jump in shock.
He saw Zheng Wei at this mont in tears, crying like a flood breaking through a dam, nonstop from his eyes.
"Mr. Zheng, why are you crying like this for no reason?" Xiao Feng asked curiously.
"Please... I beg you, let her leave." Zheng Wei pleaded.
Xiao Feng pretended to be confused: "Let who leave? Speak clearly."
Zheng Wei looked at Wang Yanmin, his eyes full of fear, then turned his gaze to Xiao Feng and said: "I agree to any conditions you have, just stop tornting !"
In fact, Zheng Wei could barely endure if it was just annoyance.
The key point was, whether intentionally or coincidentally.
Every ti he was about to doze off, Wang Yanmin would suddenly raise her voice to wake him, followed by endless nagging.
There were monts when Zheng Wei even felt like he was Sun Wukong wearing the golden headband, with Tang Monk standing next to him chanting incantations, making his head throb, wishing he could bash it against a wall!
"Sister Wang, you're simply omnipotent!" Xiao Feng looked at Wang Yanmin in amazent, his eyes full of admiration.
Perhaps Wang Yanmin pushed Zheng Wei to psychological collapse, largely by learning the tricks of the trade, like the straw that broke the cal's back.
But without that straw, Zheng Wei, the cal, might still be stubbornly resisting, gritting his teeth to endure.
In conclusion, Wang Yanmin's contribution was significant.
"Consultant Xiao, you're overpraising , I just chatted with him casually, who knew this gentleman would suddenly start crying." Wang Yanmin said modestly.
Xiao Feng said half-jokingly, half-seriously: "How about retiring early, Sister Wang? Co work for , I'll pay you triple the salary, with full benefits like insurance and housing fund."
"It's too early for retirent, let's talk about that later." Wang Yanmin changed the topic.
Three tis the salary sure was tempting, but as soone within the system, there are many invisible yet very tangible benefits.
For instance, buying a house, kids' schooling, etc., all have corresponding advantages.
This is why, even though the salary for many civil servants in cities isn't high, countless people still fight to get into the system.
Xiao Feng didn't insist, he took out one thousand yuan in cash and handed it to Wang Yanmin: "Sister Wang, you worked hard, take this small token."
"This isn't appropriate." Wang Yanmin declined: "We've worked together at the bureau before, our relationship is pretty good, there's no need for this."
However, Xiao Feng insisted, handing over the money: "There's nothing inappropriate, relationship is relationship, money is money, it shouldn't be mixed together.
That's just my temperant, I won't let people work for free, consider it a thank you."
Wang Yanmin looked at Xiao Feng and nodded: "Alright, then I'll accept it."
Both of them knew that this money was akin to a hush paynt.
After returning, Shi Yong would definitely ask about it, and how to answer would be an art.
So things don't need to be spoken frankly, a mutual understanding is enough.
After seeing off Wang Yanmin, Xiao Feng returned, only to find Zheng Wei hiccupping continuously.
"What did you secretly eat to bloat yourself like this?" Xiao Feng frowned and asked.
Zheng Wei looked lifeless and said: "I'm, uh... hungry, uh... hic, uh..."
"Forget about the hiccups, call your associates next, find a way to lure them out." Xiao Feng said impatiently.
"..." Zheng Wei.
How are they accomplices?
We aren't a criminal organization.
But he only dared to say this in his heart, he absolutely wouldn't dare pick on Xiao Feng's words.
"We have, uh... rendezvous points, uh... just calling them, uh... won't lure them out, uh..." Zheng Wei said while hiccupping.
Xiao Feng mused: "If that's the case..."
Halfway through speaking, he suddenly approached Zheng Wei and shouted: "Ha-say!"
"Uh..." Zheng Wei, mid-hiccup, was so scared he nearly fainted, his eyes widened as if he were being choked.
"Still hiccupping?" Xiao Feng asked.
Zheng Wei's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot, he tentatively spoke: "Seems like not anymore."
"It seems that scaring hiccups away is indeed effective." Xiao Feng said leisurely.
"..." Zheng Wei.
Sure cured the hiccups, though it might scare soone to death.
"Where's your eting point?" Xiao Feng asked.
Zheng Wei took a few deep breaths to calm down and replied: "At the 'Jiulong Public Cetery' in the south of the city, the code for eting will change according to the date and ti of day."
"You guys sure are troubleso." Xiao Feng mocked.
But thinking it over, such caution wasn't unreasonable.
The Celestial Defect Sect already had a pitifully small number of people, if they were reckless, it would be self-destruction.
Additionally, it didn't align with the current mindset of the Celestial Defect Sect mbers, who were still dreaming of ruling the world soday.
After pondering for a mont, Xiao Feng said: "You sit tight here for now, after I study I'll give you so poisoned food, then let you out to recover."
"..." Zheng Wei.
This bluntness, have you considered my feelings?
However, losers aren't entitled to negotiate, even their dignity would be trampled, let alone their feelings.
As he was feeling depressed, he saw the already two-ter-away Xiao Feng return and sternly asked: "To tell the truth, did you relieve yourself in the mud?"
"..." Zheng Wei.
At this mont, he truly regretted it.
Regretted ever choosing to be Xiao Feng's enemy.
