"I... didn't mean anything."

Mu Yanluo's alabaster fingers traced circles on Jiang Feng's chest.

"I'm just asking because I know once the Wei Family's matters are resolved, we'll soon return to Binhai. I'm afraid I won't have the chance to ask you then." Mu Yanluo said seriously.

"You're a very nice woman, completely different from your brother, and you're quite thoughtful—" Jiang Feng said calmly.

"I'm not giving you a Good Person Card; I want to know if there's a fraction of you that cares about me, whether you desire to have me..."

Mu Yanluo hit the mark with her words, leaning forward almost glued to Jiang Feng.

As they say, everything that should happen between her and Jiang Feng had already happened. After going through so much together, emotional outbursts on such a quiet night could naturally lead to impulses.

"Mu Yanluo, you're trying to disturb my sleep." Jiang Feng deliberately furrowed his brows and said coldly.

"Jiang Feng, I actually know you're pretending not to be interested in me only because you can't get past that barrier in your heart... But I don't mind, I really don't mind. I've said before, I'm willing to be your woman. You can do anything you want with me, and I will never let anyone know; I can keep it a secret for you..."

Mu Yanluo pressed her entire body against Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng didn't say a word, immediately trying to sit up, distancing himself from Mu Yanluo to uphold his boundaries.

Seeing this, Mu Yanluo got anxious. With her hints laid out so plainly, Jiang Feng still didn't get the message. Was he really going to drive her crazy?

In a moment of impulse, Mu Yanluo suddenly grabbed Jiang Feng's arm with her small hands and pushed him back down.

Just as Jiang Feng was engulfed in cold rage and extreme annoyance, Mu Yanluo's delicate body suddenly moved again. She straddled him with her creamy, alluring legs.

Then, her full, rosy lips descended, landing directly on Jiang Feng's lips!

Jiang Feng never expected Mu Yanluo to be so proactive and passionate. This kiss was like a clap of thunder igniting the earth, and even a man of steel like Jiang Feng couldn't withstand it.

He could only force himself to keep the last bit of his reason, tightly gripping the sheets below.

...

He wasn't sure how much time had passed when Mu Yanluo felt her lips dry and finally pulled away reluctantly from Jiang Feng's lips.

Throughout the entire ordeal, Jiang Feng remained like a wooden post, unresponsive, without any emotion.

This left her feeling tremendously aggrieved and disappointed, feeling utterly shameless.

"Jiang Feng, I'm sorry, I..."

She slid helplessly off Jiang Feng, tears welling in her eyes.

"Alright, it's late. Get some sleep."

With this sentence, Jiang Feng brought the night's impulsive event to a close.

Although there was still a strong sense of dissatisfaction in Mu Yanluo's heart, she really didn't have the courage for a second impulse.

Tears trickling from the corners of her eyes, she imploringly asked, "Jiang Feng, then... can you hold me?"

Jiang Feng sighed and turned over, embracing her in his arms.

Mu Yanluo immediately sobbed aloud, wrapping her arms around Jiang Feng's neck, and threw herself into Jiang Feng's arms with deep emotion, sobbing on his chest.

Gradually, as she cried, she finally tired out and fell into a deep sleep in Jiang Feng's embrace.

Jiang Feng continued to hold Mu Yanluo, not moving or speaking.

The events of the night were, for him, an ultimate test.

Thankfully, he held his ground.

...

That night was a difficult test for Jiang Feng; meanwhile, in the other room, Mu Shuisheng and Ruan Xiuning, the couple, were really unable to sleep.

Ruan Xiuning didn't feel idle enough to tattle to her husband about what she had just seen concerning Jiang Feng and their daughter. She was still worried about matters related to the Wei Family.

As they stayed up late into the night, feeling uneasy, both suddenly heard noises from within the village as if someone had arrived; the crowing of chickens and barking of dogs, and vaguely the whistling of moving vehicles.

This took the couple by surprise.

Keen to investigate, however, it was really too late to go out and look; they could only wait until the next morning to get up and see what happened.

...

The next morning, Jiang Feng uncharacteristically slept in.

It was only when the sunlight streamed in that he slightly opened his eyes.

What he saw was Mu Yanluo still nestled within his embrace, using both arms and legs to wrap tightly around him like an octopus.

More absurdly, one of his hands had somehow ended up on her chest, the warmth and softness from his palm making him wonder if he was still dreaming.

No wonder he dreamed of kneading dough all night long, could it be...?

Jiang Feng immediately withdrew his hand.

At this moment, a light blush suddenly appeared on Mu Yanluo's fair and delicate cheeks.

Clearly, she had woken up a while ago but was pretending to be asleep to avoid embarrassment.

Of course, another reason was that she was reluctant to leave Jiang Feng's embrace.

This guy, she offered herself to him last night, he didn't want it, but during the second half of the night, his hands started to wander...

Grabbing everywhere, how could Mu Yanluo have possibly slept peacefully?

"Awake?"

Jiang Feng asked awkwardly.

"Mm..."

Mu Yanluo slowly opened her eyes.

By now, she felt much better, at least not as empty as last night.

"Get up!"

"Okay..."

This time, it was Mu Yanluo who got up first, got dressed, and went outside to get Jiang Feng's clothes.

However, she found that her parents were not home again, not knowing where they had gone early in the morning.

"Jiang Feng, why don't you sit in the yard for a while, and I'll make you some noodles?"

Mu Yanluo, watching Jiang Feng put on the clothes she had personally washed, attempted to act as if nothing happened last night and said.

"Sure."

Jiang Feng walked casually outside.

Today, the air of Long Family Village seemed exceptionally fresh.

The gloomy aura that lingered over the entire urban village was completely cleared away.

The atmosphere in the village, the powerful Qi Fortune seemed like a mighty river such as the Yangtze River, rolling and converging into a great expanse, surging ceaselessly.

It appeared that the Qi Fortune previously taken by Wei Yongbo had all been restored, and the villagers had found redemption, while the Wei family itself surely paid an appropriate price!

Just then, outside the courtyard, Mu Shuisheng and Ruan Xiuning rushed in excitedly: "Xiao Feng, you're up, there's some big news in the village!"
