Chapter 25

The people around saw Lin Fei's embarrassed look and all showed kind smiles. Indeed, they were kind smiles, and Lin Fei was very sure of this.

Zhou Yue seemed to have heard Li Fei's threatening words and loosened her arms that were tightly hugging Lin Fei's neck.

"This stupid woman, how can her arms be so strong? If I weren't afraid of hurting you with my spiritual energy, how could I have been strangled like this?" Lin Fei was helpless and at this moment, he really wanted to slap himself.

"Calling you to drink with her, telling you not to let her win, how many times has this happened, and you still don't learn your lesson. You really deserve this!" Lin Fei once again reflected on himself.

Because Zhou Yue loosened her arms, Lin Fei finally caught his breath.

He stretched out his hands, hooked Zhou Yue's smooth, white, long legs from behind, stood up, and Zhou Yue's body slid down a bit. Lin Fei used his strength to lift her up slightly, and her body moved up again.

"Ah, this is really killing me! This stupid woman has such a dominant figure! If this continues, I'm going to embarrass myself." Feeling the two soft lumps on his back, Lin Fei knew he had to do something. "Prosperity, democracy, civilization, harmony, freedom, equality, justice, rule of law, patriotism, dedication, integrity, and friendliness." He silently recited the calming mantra a few times, and Lin Fei immediately calmed his inner turmoil.

"Let's go!" Lin Fei said calmly to Wang Xiaoru.

"Okay." Wang Xiaoru picked up her bag from the chair and followed Lin Fei out of the night snack barbecue shop.

"This guy is really blessed!" A boy couldn't help but say.

"Right! These two beauties are even prettier than our school's flowers." A companion agreed.

"Alright! Just enjoy the view, let's continue, continue." A buddy said.

The noise at the night snack barbecue shop wouldn't end so soon, as the night was still long.

The city's night was noisy. Although it was already eleven o'clock, there were still many vehicles on the road, driving by in a scattered and hurried manner.

The night snack barbecue shop was a distance from the taxi stand, and Lin Fei, carrying the dazed Zhou Yue, walked slowly forward with Wang Xiaoru.

The dark street was silent except for the occasional sound of a bicycle passing by and the rustling of tree branches.

The dim streetlights were listlessly teased by a few tireless insects, casting a cold yellow light that reflected the large and small shadows of Lin Fei and Wang Xiaoru.

Perhaps because of this atmosphere, Lin Fei said, "Xiaoru, how can Zhou Yue, who is so grown-up, still act like a child? It's really troublesome."

"I'm not a child, I'm not." Zhou Yue, who seemed to be particularly sensitive to anyone saying bad things about her, immediately became unhappy and started to squirm.

"My goodness, here we go again!" Feeling the hot, delicate body on his back start to move, Lin Fei quickly recited the calming mantra in his mind.

"No! You don't see Zhou Yue like this in front of others! You don't know, at the gym, she is the object of many young girls' admiration!" Wang Xiaoru said proudly, "Mature, beautiful, independent, confident, and successful."

"Such a high evaluation!" Lin Fei said in surprise.

"Of course, she only shows her childish side to us." Wang Xiaoru smiled.

"I can't imagine what she's like at work." Lin Fei said.

"You can come to the gym sometime, then you'll see." Wang Xiaoru suggested.

"Okay, I'll find a chance to go and see." Lin Fei said.

There was another silence, and then Wang Xiaoru suddenly said, "Lin Fei, why don't you have a girlfriend?"

Lin Fei adjusted Zhou Yue, who was sliding down, and then answered, "I want to be free for a few more years. If I have a girlfriend now, my life rhythm will change, and it's not that the right person hasn't come along yet!"

Wang Xiaoru pursed her lips, "What kind of girl do you like?"

"I don't have any special requirements, just someone who gets along well, like you." Lin Fei, feeling Zhou Yue squirming again, quickly recited the calming mantra and blurted out the answer to Wang Xiaoru's question.

"Okay!" Wang Xiaoru's face turned a bit red.

At this moment, Lin Fei didn't notice anything wrong with what he had said.

After a while, Lin Fei and Wang Xiaoru hailed a taxi on the street. After spending some time, they arrived at the Xing'an Garden community and successfully delivered Zhou Yue home, placing her on the bed.

"Alright! Finally got this young lady home, I'll take my leave now." Lin Fei wiped his forehead, which had no sweat.

"You've worked hard, come, have a drink! You must be tired from carrying her for so long!" Wang Xiaoru handed a cup of water to Lin Fei.

"It's okay, she's quite light. Don't look at me like this, even if she were a few times heavier, I could still safely deliver her home." Lin Fei took the water from Wang Xiaoru, drank it in a few gulps, and then returned the cup to her, saying, "I'll go home now, you should rest early. By the way, put a glass of water by her bedside, a drunk person will be very thirsty in the middle of the night."

"Okay, I know, be careful on your way home." Wang Xiaoru reminded him.

Lin Fei turned and left, closing the security door behind him.

After a while, Wang Xiaoru, standing by the window, confirmed that Lin Fei had left in a taxi before pulling the curtains.

"Water, Xiaoru, I'm so thirsty!" Zhou Yue's mumble came from the room.

Wang Xiaoru went to Zhou Yue's room, gently lifted her, and handed her a glass of water, "Gulping, gulping!" "Drink slowly, no one is fighting with you!" Wang Xiaoru said helplessly.

"Xiaoru, I feel so bad." Zhou Yue frowned.

Wang Xiaoru put her hand on Zhou Yue's forehead, and a faint blue light appeared. Zhou Yue's pained expression gradually eased.

After that, Wang Xiaoru spent some time helping Zhou Yue take off her clothes and cover her with a blanket before leaving the room to rest in her own.

When Lin Fei got home, it was almost midnight. Smelling the strong alcohol odor on his body, he quickly went into the bathroom to shower. After showering, he took out the already dried miner's uniform from the washing machine and hung it to dry.

At midnight, the community was quiet, but a few vehicles drove in at this time, briefly breaking the silence of the night.

The autumn wind at night was not very friendly, and Lin Fei, hanging clothes on the balcony, could clearly feel the chill. He slightly adjusted his spiritual energy to dispel the cold and quickly hung the clothes, then left the wind-swept place.

Today was really a busy day!

Lying in bed, Lin Fei thought to himself, "If it weren't for Wang Xiaoru's description, I wouldn't have known that Zhou Yue has another side. But this woman really gets to me! I have to be more careful in the future."
