Chapter 1301 - 1301: Heartless Like Shrimp and Pig

"Brother Feng, you're amazing, truly amazing!"

After Chang Wenhua and the others left, Wang Lubo looked at Xiao Feng with admiration, giving him a thumbs-up.

"What's amazing?"

"Of course, your tactics are amazing!

Bai Huanyu cares greatly about his reputation; it's well-known in Jiangcheng.

With just a small maneuver, Brother Feng can guide public opinion, ruining Bai Huanyu's reputation. Who would dare say it's not clever?"

At this point, Wang Lubo chuckled, "Some things, whether they were really done or not doesn't matter; as long as everyone believes he did it, then he did it.

This is the legendary killing without a trace, right?"

Xiao Feng hadn't yet replied when a small head suddenly popped into sight from the study: "Shrimp heart and pig heart? Where is it, where is it?"

"I was saying kill...oh, forget it, you wouldn't understand even if I explained."

"Hey, my quick temper is flaring up!" The young girl walked out with big strides, angrily saying, "Fat Bo, are you itching for a beating?"

Wang Lubo frowned, "Even if you beat me up, what I don't understand still won't become understood."

"I don't understand? Ha! I don't understand?" the young girl retorted disdainfully, "Isn't it just killing without a trace?

Come on, explain it first, what does it mean to kill without a trace."

Xiao Feng quietly left the scene, walked out of the villa, and entered the courtyard.

He hadn't even descended the steps when he saw Du Qingyue standing in the courtyard, looking towards the sky in a trance-like state.

"Whew..."

After a moment, she let out a long sigh, pressed her thin lips together, seemingly having let go of a concern, but the lingering sorrow between her brows betrayed her true feelings.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Feng asked gently.

Du Qingyue smiled and replied, "It's nothing, just feeling a bit upset."

Xiao Feng suddenly paused, immediately recalling Wang Lubo's talk about "Xiao Bajia and Dong Min" getting a room together.

But he quickly rejected this possibility; the young girl might be jealous and throw a tantrum over it, but Du Qingyue wouldn't be bothered enough by it.

If it's not that, then what else could be making her feel uneasy?

After pondering for a moment, Xiao Feng's eyes flashed with realization, and he asked, "Because of your dad?"

"Yeah." Du Qingyue nodded, "When you were at the Bai Family, I went next door to see him."

"And then?"

"He was very polite to me, even somewhat cautious, as if afraid of saying something wrong, doing something wrong, or offending me."

"So, you felt uncomfortable?"

Du Qingyue deliberated for a bit, then forced a smile, "That's at least not the scenario I hoped to see."

"Then what would you prefer to see?" Xiao Feng asked.

"I think, in every girl's heart, their father is supposed to be tall, brave, and capable of anything.

When I was very young, I remember my dad would let me ride on his shoulders; wherever I pointed, he would take me there, whatever I liked, he would buy for me."

Saying this, a glimmer of a smile appeared at the corner of Du Qingyue's mouth.

However, the smile didn't last long and faded quickly as she self-mockingly added, "Actually, I'm not too sure if it is this way, because this memory is quite blurry, perhaps it's something I imagined."

"Many people and things don't change according to personal wishes, they cannot be forced."

Du Qingyue nodded gently, sighing again, "My grandfather had people bring my dad back to the Du Family, and Jia Luo provided a psychological counseling plan, maybe it'll really be effective."

Despite saying this, judging from her expression and tone, she clearly didn't hold much hope.

Or rather, she didn't dare to hold much hope.

Xiao Feng opened his mouth, intending to offer comfort, but struggled to find the right words, and given Du Qingyue's personality, verbal comfort wasn't what she needed...

After a long silence, Xiao Feng slowly squatted down, patting his left shoulder with his right hand.

"What are you doing..." Du Qingyue was taken aback.

Xiao Feng smiled, "Come on, let me give you a taste of your childhood, and I'll get to experience what being a father is like."

"You!" Du Qingyue chuckled, "Your tendency to joke regardless of the occasion hasn't changed one bit.

However, it seems you haven't joked with me in a long time."

"Do you prefer me joking with you, or being more serious?"

"Depends on the situation."

Xiao Feng rose seriously, "You're the most beautiful lady I've ever seen."

"That's not funny at all."

"Look into my eyes." Xiao Feng's smile faded, showing a serious face, "Do I look like I'm joking?"

"Hmm...really doesn't seem like you're joking."

Xiao Feng suddenly grinned, "Okay, I'll admit, I was joking."

Du Qingyue rolled her eyes at him, about to speak when cries for help sounded from the villa.

"Help!"

Xiao Feng and Du Qingyue exchanged glances, recognizing Wang Lubo as the source of the cry.

Without delay, they both headed into the villa.

Just upon entering, they saw the young girl with one foot on the sofa, acting very arrogantly, "Shout all you want!

Screaming to the sky won't help, I'm peeling off a layer of skin today!"

Xiao Feng looked at Lu Yao and asked, "What's happening?"

"He brought it upon himself." Lu Yao shook his head and sighed, "Shihan's personality isn't unknown to Wang Lubo, yet he kept contradicting her endlessly; there's nothing that can be done."

Jiang Yixin remarked, "Though seeing someone so frustrated makes me happy,

I must admit, Wang Lubo was really asking for it today."

"Brother Feng, help!" Wang Lubo urgently pleaded, "I just spoke a few truths; this is way too violent."

Xiao Feng clicked his tongue in wonder, speaking a few truths?

Just that?

Wasn't he clearly just courting trouble?

Can't you see even Brother Feng is now cautious about expressing the truth impulsively?

Still, no matter what, they couldn't really let Wang Lubo get hammered by the young girl.

"Let him off this time." Xiao Feng said lightly.

The young girl was ready to lose her temper, but suddenly seemed to recall something, taking a deep breath as she looked at Wang Lubo, "Fat Bo, I'm giving face to Brother Feng, otherwise... hmph hmph!"

After finishing, she turned away to leave, casting a rather cool back image.

On the sofa, Wang Lubo loosened the shoelaces tied to his hands using his teeth, genuinely feeling tearless and on the verge of collapse.

"Bozai, I need you to do something for me."

"Tell me, Brother Feng, whatever it is, however hard or dangerous, I'll go through fire and water..."

"Alright, alright, save those words, help me get dozens of fake watches, and some fake antiques." Xiao Feng instructed, "The fake watches should be those priced over a million, the type of antique doesn't matter.

Things like cups, saucers, porcelains, jades, celebrity paintings, antique vases, get me about thirty to fifty items.

As quick as possible!"

Wang Lubo slapped his chest confidently, "Don't worry, Brother Feng, I've got it covered!"

With that, he made a call, arranging for Xiao Feng's request.

Then...

He laboriously bent down to pick up his shoes, threading back the shoelaces into them.

Watching this, Xiao Feng couldn't help but find it amusing.

Using shoelaces to tie someone up, that too is quite the old tradition.
