Chapter 1217 - 1217: Monologue in the Song

While Du Qingyue and others were dealing with the Fast Blade King, Xiao Feng, who was in Kyoto, also felt a headache.

In the living room, Xiao Feng and Pei Dengke sat opposite each other, the former silent, the latter hesitant to speak.

After a while, Aunt Xue walked in, sighed, and said: "The girl refuses to leave, claiming she'll stand outside until Mr. Xiao accepts her as his apprentice.

I persuaded her for a long time, but it was useless. She's too determined and didn't listen at all."

"Then let her stand outside." Xiao Feng exhaled deeply, leaning back against the sofa.

Pei Dengke looked conflicted and said: "Brother Ba, what if Weiwei arrives soon?

If she sees a woman standing at the door and leaves in anger, even jumping into the Yellow River won't wash me clean."

"What's unclean about that?" Xiao Feng replied irritably: "If you're innocent, you're innocent, haven't you heard that?

So if you marry Wang Tingwei, will you never interact with any other woman again?"

"Uh… Everything needs to be gradual, Weiwei and I are just starting, we still need some time to adjust."

"Only new cars need adjustment, you… whatever.

If you're really worried, go out and knock Lin Bingqiao out and lock her up somewhere first."

"Hey!" Pei Dengke's eyes lit up: "That's actually a good idea."

He decided to take action.

To ensure that the upcoming date with Wang Tingwei went smoothly, Pei Dengke strode quickly towards the door.

"Master Pei, Brother Ba sent you as the persuader, right?" Lin Bingqiao said expressionlessly.

"Shut up!" Pei Dengke shouted, glancing left and right nervously, afraid of being seen.

"..." Lin Bingqiao.

Did she say something wrong?

Why did Master Pei suddenly react so strongly?

Little did she know, Pei Dengke was extremely sensitive at the moment, the word "persuader" sounding like "sleep" in his mind.

If Weiwei overheard, how would he explain?

After confirming there was no one around, Pei Dengke showed a decisive look in his eyes and said in a deep voice: "I apologize!"

"Hmm?"

Lin Bingqiao frowned, barely having time to react before feeling a sharp pain in her neck, her vision darkening as she lost consciousness.

Pei Dengke caught her, hoisted her onto his shoulder, and sprinted back to the house.

As he was about to enter, a familiar voice sounded from behind: "What are you doing?"

"Oh crap!" Pei Dengke shivered uncontrollably, nearly falling to his knees.

What a coincidence! Despite all precautions, he was caught red-handed?

But now wasn't the time to worry about that.

Pei Dengke turned around hurriedly and said: "Weiwei, wait ten seconds, I'll explain everything to you."

"No need to explain, I hope you learn how to love someone in the future." Wang Tingwei said sadly: "Alright, take care of yourself."

"Weiwei! Weiwei!" Pei Dengke panicked, tossing Lin Bingqiao aside and rushing towards Wang Tingwei in the yard.

Xiao Feng didn't have time to stop him but managed to lessen Lin Bingqiao's fall, avoiding any injury.

"Weiwei, don't leave me, okay?" Pei Dengke held Wang Tingwei's shoulders, looking extremely anxious.

"You… hah!" Wang Tingwei couldn't help but chuckle, her laughter ringing like bells.

Pei Dengke turned red with embarrassment, scratching his head in anxiety.

"Enough jokes, what I said was actually a monologue from a song." Wang Tingwei said, composing herself.

"A monologue in a song?" Pei Dengke paused, then realized: "No wonder it sounded familiar, I've probably heard it before. Seems like an old song."

Wang Tingwei shook her head: "Forget about the song, what's your relationship with the girl you just knocked out?"

"I have nothing to do with her!"

"How can you have nothing to do when you knocked her out and carried her inside, what are you up to?"

"This, I, this…" Pei Dengke urgently looked at Xiao Feng: "Brother Ba, say something!"

At this moment, Wang Tingwei naturally turned her gaze towards Xiao Feng, with a hint of inquiry in her eyes.

Xiao Feng nodded subtly, answering her silent question, then explained Lin Bingqiao's situation to her.

Everyone walked into the living room while Lin Bingqiao was placed in the study.

Wang Tingwei put two safes on the table and said: "This is five million, take it."

"This, this is too embarrassing, Weiwei you just keep it and spend it, why give it back to me?" Pei Dengke grinned sheepishly.

Xiao Feng couldn't help but sigh in disappointment after witnessing this, wanting to suggest Pei Dengke change his name to "Pei Humble" to better suit his personality.

Wang Tingwei glanced at Xiao Feng discreetly, pushing the box towards Pei Dengke: "I'm testing you, not after the money, after all, money is just the same in anyone's hands."

Her face showed a perfect blush at this point.

Pei Dengke became excited, almost unable to sit still.

"Weiwei, I…"

"I want to eat your egg fried rice." Wang Tingwei tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, interjecting.

Pei Dengke immediately stood up, agreeing: "No problem, just egg fried rice?

Weiwei, wait, it'll be ready soon!"

He hurried into the kitchen.

Soon after, he peeked out and said: "Brother Ba, keep Weiwei company, I'll make enough for three, then we can eat."

Meanwhile, Aunt Xue came out of the kitchen, looking at Xiao Feng and Wang Tingwei in the living room.

Then she glanced at Pei Dengke busy cracking eggs in the kitchen, feeling inexplicably odd.

But pinpointing the exact strangeness was difficult, so she greeted and followed Pei Dengke's instructions to leave until he called her back.

Now, Xiao Feng and Wang Tingwei were alone in the living room.

"You don't seem to mind my toying with Pei Dengke?" Wang Tingwei asked.

Xiao Feng pondered for a moment and smiled: "I suddenly feel a bit regretful."

"Oh?" Wang Tingwei squinted: "Regret poisoning me?"

Xiao Feng shook his head: "Regret not letting Pei Dengke himself meet you last night."

"What do you mean by that?"

"If the real Pei Dengke had gone last night, he would've most likely fallen victim to you, making things much simpler."

"By simpler you mean?"

"If you really harmed him, I wouldn't be certain if the person behind you could escape, but you would certainly be unable to!" Xiao Feng said confidently.
