Chapter 40: Master of Flirtation

Xu Feng walked to the third floor, his steps gradually slowing down. He was thinking about the stunning woman, wondering if she was taking a shower at this moment.

Xu Feng arrived at the door of the third-floor attic and gently pressed on it with his fingers. His skilled movement created a perfect gap with just a slight press.

Xu Feng peered through the gap, a hint of mischief on his lips. However, what he saw was not the scene of beauty he had imagined. Instead, he saw a burly man standing in front of Ye Si, his face twisted with a fierce and sinister look, his eyes carrying a hidden lust.

"Ye Hu, without my order, you dare to step into the third floor," Ye Si said, her anger rising. She had not expected this servant to be so bold, to walk directly into her room, leaving her unprepared.

"Ye Si! If that sick man on the bed were still alive, I wouldn't dare to come in. But that sick man has been severely injured by that beast. Do you think you have anything to threaten me with?" Ye Hu sneered.

"Ye Hu! Don't forget that you are a servant! This is insubordination!" Ye Si glared at Ye Hu, her beautiful face turning pale with a stern and authoritative air.

Ye Hu was momentarily taken aback by Ye Si's presence, his expression slightly收敛 (restrained), but he still did not back down. "Hmph! Don't think you're really the young mistress! The master of the Ye family is only the lord and lady. This time, if you fail to complete the task given by the lady, I want to see how you will explain it."

"That's my business! I don't need your interference," Ye Si said coldly.

"Is that so? Hah, I want to see what you can do without that sick man, Ye Shu." Ye Hu laughed sinisterly. "The lady sent me to supervise you. If you fail, don't blame me for dealing with you."

Xu Feng, standing outside the door, had not expected to witness a scene completely different from what he had imagined.

"Get out!" Ye Si shouted at Ye Hu, her clear eyes filled with defiance and fatigue. Her beautiful eyes, tinged with a faint sorrow, were captivating. Seeing her eyes suddenly bloodshot, Xu Feng's heart raced. In that moment, he felt a sudden pang of pain, as if the sorrow and fatigue of such a flawless woman were a great sin.

Xu Feng, who had been through many romantic encounters, had never been so emotionally moved by a woman. Even with Lin Xi, it was more of a habitual protectiveness and concern. However, Ye Si was the first woman who made him lose control of his emotions at first sight.

Xu Feng now fully believed that a woman's beauty could truly captivate a man's heart, involuntarily. He finally understood why Daji could bring ruin to a nation and why a ruler could light beacons to win a smile from Bao Si.

Xu Feng took a deep breath, shook his head to clear his thoughts, and pushed the door open, walking straight in.

Seeing someone enter, and it being a young man, Ye Hu was about to shout at Xu Feng. However, noticing Ye Si's bloodshot, cold eyes, he involuntarily swallowed his words. Under Ye Si's presence, he felt extremely suppressed and left in a huff, not understanding his own actions.

"You came!" Ye Si managed a weak smile at Xu Feng, then turned her head, raising her arm to wipe away her tears, her shoulders trembling slightly.

Xu Feng did not avoid her, walking to Ye Si's side. In front of him, Ye Si's crystal tears hung on her flawless face, making his heart ache. Seeing Xu Feng standing there, Ye Si quickly wiped her beautiful eyes, but the tears only increased.

Ye Si's constant tears seemed to carry endless grievances. Although Xu Feng did not know what Ye Si was enduring, he could guess from the scene he had just witnessed.

Even a small servant could bully her, indicating her low status in the family. For a woman, being too beautiful is not always a good thing. A woman without status or position, being too beautiful, is dangerous for both others and herself.

Clearly, Ye Si was such a person. She had the title of the Ye family's young mistress but lacked the corresponding status. To protect herself, she had to work much harder. Even a servant had designs on her, showing how mentally and physically exhausted she was.

Looking at this woman who could captivate anyone, Xu Feng almost felt the boundless sorrow and fatigue she was enduring.

Xu Feng sighed, walked to one side, and took a wet towel hanging there. "Sister Ye Si! Take your hand away, and use the towel to wipe your face!"

Xu Feng gently pressed the wet towel against Ye Si's beautiful face, carefully wiping away her tears.

Looking at Ye Si's slightly swollen eyes, her lashes still trembling, the sorrow in her eyes was evident.

"Here! Hold it to your face." Xu Feng handed the wet towel to Ye Si.

Ye Si took it, pressed it to her face, and stopped her tears. She brushed away the disheveled strands of hair on her face and looked at Xu Feng somewhat embarrassedly. "Sorry, for letting you see me lose control."

Xu Feng shook his head, thinking: She must have endured too much sorrow and pressure to cry in front of someone she had only met once.

"Sister Ye Si, if you have any grievances, you can talk to me! I might not be able to help, but I will be your best listener," Xu Feng said with a smile.

Ye Si's mood improved somewhat, and she smiled at Xu Feng, shaking her head. "It's nothing! Just some family matters!"

Seeing Ye Si say this, Xu Feng's gaze fixed on her eyes. Ye Si, under Xu Feng's stare, averted her eyes, feeling a bit flustered.

"To make Sister Ye Si cry in front of a near stranger, it must be a big problem," Xu Feng said with a casual smile.

Looking at the young man, who was six or seven years younger than her, and his clear eyes, Ye Si felt an urge to vent her pent-up emotions.

"Actually, I don't need to say, but with Sister Ye Si's captivating beauty, the men who want to harm you must be countless. Dealing with these men must be exhausting for you. Heh, Sister Ye Si shouldn't be so beautiful," Xu Feng said with a smile.

This made Ye Si smile, her flawless but weary face even more captivating, stirring Xu Feng's heart.

"You're just a kid, what do you know about captivating beauty!" Ye Si rolled her eyes at Xu Feng. To her, the young man in front of her was just a boy. Hearing such words from a boy who seemed like a master of flirtation, she couldn't help but laugh.

Xu Feng shrugged helplessly, knowing he was being treated like a child in front of the mature and beautiful Ye Si. He was also frustrated with his thin, sixteen- or seventeen-year-old body.

"Sister Ye Si, you are!" Xu Feng's gaze fixed on Ye Si's ample chest, which was barely contained by her torn clothes. Although he couldn't see inside, the white skin at the neckline still gave him a good view.

Seeing Xu Feng's gaze, Ye Si's face turned slightly red, but she did not avoid it. To her, the young man in front of her was not yet a man.

"You're so young and already know how to evaluate beauty. I wonder how much trouble you'll cause when you grow up," Ye Si said with a smile.

Hearing this, Xu Feng chuckled, thinking that Ye Si wasn't wrong. In his past life, he had been a womanizer, and he couldn't be considered a good person.

"I'm not interested in harming others. I just want to harm Sister Ye Si. A beauty like you is the only one who would make me want to," Xu Feng said, shrugging his shoulders, his gaze warm and intense.

Ye Si laughed in surprise, covering Xu Feng's gaze with her hand. Seeing his intense eyes, she felt a sudden unease. But thinking of his weak and gentle appearance, she found it amusing, thinking, "I'm so much older than him, why am I getting flustered by a young boy?" "You're a little troublemaker, daring to flirt with girls at such a young age. I should teach you a lesson to prevent you from becoming too arrogant in the future..."

Xu Feng leaned in, tilting his head to one side, and said, "If Sister Ye Si wants to teach me a lesson, I'm sure many people would be willing to let you teach them."

Looking at the thin, gentle young man in front of her, Ye Si found it amusing, thinking, "At such a young age, he's already pretending to be a master of flirtation." If it weren't for Liu Qianru's confirmation, she wouldn't believe this bold young man was a servant.

"Alright! I can't stand you! At your age, you should like girls like Liu Qianru and Xiao Er." Ye Si smiled, and talking to this young man had eased her pent-up emotions.

"They're just innocent little girls, how can they compare to Sister Ye Si's charm!"

Hearing this, Ye Si laughed, her eyes sparkling with a captivating beauty. "What do you know about charm?"

Xu Feng patted his head, thinking that his young body was really not taken seriously by mature women. Seeing Ye Si's charming smile, he said helplessly, "I didn't understand before, but seeing Sister Ye Si, I understand now."

The teasing tone made Ye Si pat her forehead, thinking, "Do young men these days learn to speak sweet words so naturally?" Looking at the young man with his intense but not greedy eyes, she did not feel the disgust she usually felt with other men.

Ye Si tapped Xu Feng's forehead with her finger. "In the future, you should keep Qianru away from you. She might really be fooled by you."

"Tricking her is too easy. Tricking Sister Ye Si would be a real achievement." Xu Feng pouted, his gaze fixed on the charming woman in front of him, her alluring curves making him very attracted.

Being so intensely looked at by a young man, Ye Si felt a bit shy. Seeing that she couldn't stop Xu Feng's gaze, she said helplessly, "Alright! I'm afraid of you! You have the potential to be a little pervert."

Looking at Ye Si's beautiful face, flushed but still smiling, Xu Feng thought: Being in a young body is not bad, at least it looks harmless. If an adult man looked at her like this, she would react differently.

Xu Feng suddenly thought about taking advantage of his harmless appearance to seduce a few mature women. However, he quickly dismissed the idea. With his young appearance, seducing mature women would be extremely difficult, as Ye Si's attitude showed, they didn't consider him a man.

Seeing the suddenly frustrated young man in front of her, Ye Si felt very relaxed. Thinking about his earlier flirtatious behavior, she smiled.

"This servant is really interesting!"

"Your name is Xu Feng, right? Can you help me with something?" Ye Si asked.

Xu Feng shrugged, thinking that a request from such a woman would be hard for any man to refuse, and he was no exception.

"Sister Ye Si, please tell me," Xu Feng said with a smile.

Ye Si walked to the bed, pulled back the curtain, and a middle-aged man with black threads on his face appeared in front of Xu Feng.

"Can you save him?" Ye Si asked, her captivating eyes filled with hope.

"Save him?" Xu Feng was taken aback, not understanding why she would make such a request. He thought he didn't know any medical skills.

"Qianru said you might be able to save him!"

Xu Feng looked at the beautiful woman in front of him, his brows slightly furrowed. He hadn't expected Liu Qianru to put him in this position. Wasn't this like forcing a duck to climb a tree?

Seeing Ye Si's hopeful gaze, Xu Feng felt his scalp tingle. After a long pause, he said, "I'll try."

Saying this, Xu Feng walked towards the middle-aged man, feeling a headache. Asking someone who knew nothing about medicine to save him was a joke.

"That woman Liu Qianru, I should find a chance to teach her a lesson. How can she joke with someone's life?"

Xu Feng took a deep breath. Although he didn't know what to do, he still carefully examined the middle-aged man. Seeing nothing, Xu Feng didn't hesitate and used the Purification Technique on the man.

If he knew any medical skills, the Purification Technique was the only one he could use.

A water film struck the middle-aged man's face, and to Xu Feng's surprise, the black threads on his face faded slightly. At that moment, his face gained a bit of color, but when the water film disappeared, his face turned pale again. However, the few black threads that had disappeared did not reappear.
