Chapter 7 Wife is Angry

A cold smirk formed on Chen Feng's lips. He wasn't bluffing; he truly knew Lin Daoyi.

Approximately two or three years ago, Chen Feng and an old madman had purposely made a visit to Lin Daoyi and stayed at his place for half a month.

All he could say was, Zhong Yang had met his match.

"You dare to impersonate Lin Daoyi's disciple and deceive others. What do you think Lin Daoyi would do if he were to find out about this? Do you think he could scatter your soul with a mere thought?"

Chen Feng's tone was moderate.

Zhong Yang's face changed colours, his look shifted erratically as he gazed repeatedly at Xu Yan.

"You fool, cease talking nonsense if you're ignorant of the situation. Besides, Zhong Yang has already identified Lingling's illness. Your ill-intentioned meddling is making us all uncomfortable. Get lost now, we don't welcome you here,"

Xu Yan growled, her face darkened.

"Sister, I'll say it again, do not disrespect Doctor Chen,"

Xu Hu's face sank.

By now, Xu Hu was totally convinced by Chen Feng's words; this so-called Zhong Yang was nothing but a swindling charlatan devoid of capabilities.

"Xu Hu, I'm very disappointed in you that you put your trust in a stranger instead of your own sister,"

Xu Yan was on the verge of tears.

Xu Hu's face darkened; there were many things he hesitated to say.

Chen Feng looked at Xu Yan, then slowly shifted his gaze to Zhong Yang, his tone frosty, "The scent of the perfume you're using is identical to the one on Xu Yan. So tell me, Zhong Yang, what's your relationship with her?"

"You're talking rubbish. Earlier, Xu Yan pulled me into the room, so it's not abnormal for me to have taken on a bit of her scent, is it?"

"Oh, is that so? Then how do you explain the love-bite halfway through on your neck? Do you need to be taken to the hospital for a detailed examination?" Chen Feng asked indifferently.

Upon hearing this, Xu Hu and his wife then noticed the dark mark poking out from Zhong Yang's collar.

Instantly, Xu Hu's face turned pale, suddenly connecting the dots. His sister was in cahoots with a persuasive fraudster, scheming to scam him of millions of dollars under the pretext of treating Lingling.

Xu Yan's face lost all its colour, turning pale. In desperation, she pleaded, "Xiaohu, brother, don't listen to this little beast's nonsense. Don't listen-"

Smack.

Before Xu Yan could finish her sentence, Chen Feng slapped her, sending her flying a few feet.

"Dare to be impudent again, and I'll kill you!"

Chen Feng's eyes were frosty.

"Sister, if you needed money, you could have just asked me directly. Why did you have to collude with an outsider to scam me? And even using Lingling's treatment as an excuse; I'm truly disappointed in you. Get out, out!"

Xu Hu raged.

Seeing situation turn grim, Zhong Yang turned to flee.

Chen Feng and Xu Hu did not bother to stop Zhong Yang; after all, he hadn't actually succeeded in his scam.

Xu Yan left, crestfallen, no longer daring to utter another word.

Chen Feng sighed inwardly.

Although love exists in the world, there is no dearth of shameless scoundrels who exploit emotions for their personal gain, without any morals.

"Ah, Brother Chen, I'm so sorry. What an embarrassment,"

Xu Hu hung his head in shame.

"It's alright, I can understand. Now, let me diagnose Lingling's disease," said Chen Feng.

"Alright, hard work, Brother Chen!" Xu Hu replied seriously.

Chen Feng didn't say more, but began examining directly.

A minute later, Chen Feng removed a wooden Guanyin pendant from Lingling's neck.

He had sensed an evilly cold aura from the pendant.

"Lingling's illness stems from this pendant. As long as Lingling doesn't wear it again, she will grow up healthy," Chen Feng said gravely.

"This pendant was also given by his sister. She said it was blessed or something. I didn't expect her to be so ruthless, almost costing my precious Lingling her life. Oh, Xu Hu, you really have a good sister who stops at nothing for money,"

Yang Xue's eyes filled with tears.

Xu Hu slumped helplessly on the couch; he had never imagined the truth could be so cruel.

"Just watch."

Chen Feng spoke softly.

Then, in front of Xu Hu and his wife, Chen Feng crushed the pendant.

Boom.

In an instant, a gloomy black gas spread out, reminiscent of the aura from the underworld, dreadfully chilling.

To the uninitiated, this looked like ghostly air.

But to a cultivator, it was a dark Yin energy that a little girl could not possibly withstand.

Xu Hu and his wife were scared out of their wits, their faces pale.

"Xu Hu, this is your sister's doing, letting Lingling wear this evil thing for over two months, I...I..."

Yang Xue's eyes welled up with tears, she could hardly believe it unless she had seen it with her own eyes.

"You can just be more careful in the future. I need to go home now, or my wife will scold me."

Chen Feng laughed.

"Wait." Xu Hu quickly stood up, pulled out a card from his wallet, bowed, and said: "Brother Chen, there's five million in this card. The password is the last six digits of the card number. I hope you'll accept it."

"Brother Xu, this makes me feel quite embarrassed."

"Brother Chen, if you don't accept this, you're not considering me as a friend. Besides, if you weren't here, this money might have been swindled by that cheat Zhong Yang." Xu Hu spoke seriously.

"You're younger than both of us. I, your sister-in-law, feel a bit presumptuous calling you younger brother. This is just a small token of our appreciation. If you don't accept it, we won't let you go home tonight." Yang Xue also laughed.

"Well..."

"Hey, just accept it. I'll have my wife cook a few of her signature dishes another day, and we'll have a few drinks."

Xu Hu stuffed the card into Chen Feng's hand.

"Well then, I accept. Brother Xu, sister-in-law, excuse me!"

Chen Feng left Xu Hu's house.

Shortly thereafter, Chen Feng returned home.

His parents-in-law had already gone to sleep, but much to Chen Feng's surprise, Ye Qingqing was still awake. Dressed in a pink pajamas, sitting sternly on the sofa, she gave Chen Feng a start.

"Honey, why aren't you asleep yet? Don't you need to go to work tomorrow?"

Chen Feng was surprised, as Ye Qingqing usually went to bed early.

Ye Qingqing stood up, her scent wafting in the air and her curves striking. But her expression was very cold as she stared at Chen Feng and said, "Don't call me honey. Where have you been?"

"Treating a friend's daughter." Chen Feng replied.

"Huh, are you sure you were not having a romantic encounter with some vixen? Chen Feng, Chen Feng, since when did you become a doctor? You use such a lame excuse, did something eat your brains?"

Ye Qingqing scoffed.

"Don't you trust me? You should recognize Xu Hu, the vice president of Qiancheng Entertainment. His daughter Lingling was sick, and he asked me to..."

"Keep lying, continue with your lies." Ye Qingqing sneered, her beautiful fang ice-cold: "I really do not want to discredit you, but are you not aware of your own limitations? Would a person like Xu Hu associate with you? Laughable."

"In your eyes, am I really that worthless?"

Chen Feng stared at Ye Qingqing, trying his best to hide the shattering inside him.

Ye Qingqing paused for a moment and suddenly felt uncomfortable.

But the thought of Chen Feng embracing that beautiful stranger flashed in Ye Qingqing's mind, and the flames in her heart flared up again.

"I don't care if you are worthless or not, I don't care who you have been seeing, but you must remember one thing, we're married in name, so respect yourself!"

After Ye Qingqing finished speaking, she turned around and walked away.

A thought flashed through Chen Feng's mind. Could it be that... when Qin Luoyin embraced him outside the Spring Return Hall, Ye Qingqing had seen it?

"Honey, explain before you go, did you see something and misunderstood? Or... are you jealous?"

Chen Feng stepped forward and grabbed Ye Qingqing's jade hand, suddenly feeling a little excited.

"Don't touch me." Ye Qingqing shook off Chen Feng's hand and said coldly: "I didn't see anything and I could not possibly be jealous. I'm just reminding you. Also, tomorrow night is Grandpa's 80th birthday, don't cause me any embarrassment. Go to sleep."
