Chapter 871: Liu Fengxi's Inquiry
After the grassy clearing, although Lu Yun didn't manage to have Liu Fengying fully consumed, he certainly enjoyed a substantial hand-to-hand experience. He followed Liu Fengying and her sisters back home. Even now, the moisture on his hands, though dried, still carried the lingering scent of Liu Fengying.
"Lu Yun felt humbled—how could he have ended up making you so angry? He simply didn't understand, and he truly didn't."
"Hmph. What were you two doing just now?"
Liu Fengxi stared intently at Lu Yun, her body subtly shifting on the bench, though barely noticeable. Lu Yun furrowed his brow slightly, saying, "Nothing at all—just some things I wanted to say to Feng Ying sister. Now that I've finished, I naturally have to go. Feng Yi sister is still waiting for me."
Fengxi felt her frustration mounting. She had only just entered the room, and the two people who had previously been distant and reserved now found themselves in the countryside, doing something quite intimate. Though it seemed as though she had interrupted them, it was clear that Lu Yun had already taken the initiative with her younger sister. She couldn't understand what Feng Ying thought—so reserved and shy in her presence, yet so easily outdone by this boy once they were away.
With a cold sigh, Fengxi glanced at Lu Yun's bare upper body and said, "Your clothes were already arranged for you. But now I've changed my mind. If you're going to leave like this, then you must face the consequences of what you've done."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yun immediately sensed Fengxi's growing irritation. He stepped slowly toward her, sat beside her on the bench, and smiled gently
Liu Feng said with a huff, "What's it to me if you eat your greens or not? Go on and do whatever you like—after all, you've already done it. That way, I don't have to waste my saliva anymore. And as for your unsteady behavior, you must have done something to Feng Yi on the way. Isn't it true that you tore her clothes?"
The topic naturally shifted from Liu Fengying to Liu Fengyi. Lu Yun found himself somewhat at a loss when Liu Fengxi spoke, nearly losing his composure and almost revealing the matter of Ma Fugui insisting on marrying Liu Fengyi. Instead of waiting for Lu Yun to prepare his medicine and then having Ma Fugui drag Liu Fengyi into the woods to tear her clothes off and make her do something, Liu Fengxi took the initiative to complain: "You're such a schemer, you know! I went out of my way to help persuade Fengying, yet you secretly called her away to the countryside, and there you were, touching her up and making advances—how can you possibly repay me for that?" Lu Yun was taken aback. He hadn't expected Liu Fengxi to be so observant, knowing exactly what he had done for Liu Fengying. Indeed, the way she looked at him now clearly carried a hint of jealousy. With that, he had his strategy in place. "Fengxi sister, truly, you're making me feel guilty! I didn't do anything at all with Fengying—just exchanged a few words!" Lu Yun explained while glancing at the clock on the wall. It was already half past five—
Lu Yun's heart suddenly leaped—this woman was truly sharp, having figured out that he had used his fingers to slip into Liu Fengying's waterfall cave. Yet, Lu Yun still had his stubborn streak; he firmly denied, saying, "Fengxi Sister, you'll have to have solid evidence before you make such a claim, or else you're going to muddy the reputation of both Fengying Sister and myself." Liu Fengxi stared at Lu Yun's innocent expression, wishing she could strangle him right there, and sighed angrily, "You're still pretending! When I went to the hay pile, how could your fingers have been *like that*? Didn't you yourself do it—didn't you realize?"
Lu Yun suddenly realized—the issue was actually with his fingers! But that was easy enough. With a cheerful smile, he said, “What’s so strange about it? When I’m alone with Feng Ying, I’m never truly at ease. It’s only natural that I’d bite on my fingers now and then. Feng Xi, please don’t go out of your way to fuss. Hurry and help me get dressed—I still need to take Feng Yi back home, and then I’ll go around to Tingting’s neighborhood to find out what’s going on.”
“Well, you’ve managed to leave Feng Yi so flustered that she can’t even get back home! Honestly, what have you done to her?”
Lu Yun was genuinely frustrated. He had indeed stirred things up for her twice, but hadn't pushed Miao Fengyi to the point of being unable to return home—only that she felt somewhat uncomfortable at the place, and walked with a peculiar gait. Miao Fengxi simply wouldn't believe it. Previously, Fengyi had been her second sister, and now even her third sister had been affected by Lu Yun, unable to return home. Fengxi was eager to find out what exactly the young man had done to her on the journey. After all, Fengyi should have known Lu Yun's strength and wouldn't have been so severely affected by him. How could she possibly be unable to return home?
"Where is Feng Yi now? Take me to see her, otherwise I can't feel at ease." Liu Fengxi, concerned about her sister, said to Lu Yun with some irritation.
Lu Yun wiped his brow, sweating, saying, "Feng Xi sister, what are you doing here? Feng Yi is waiting for me just a few miles outside the village. What do you want me to do? Go and have your clothes dyed instead? I'll rush back and play around—Feng Yi will be waiting anxiously, and I'm certain she'll be furious with me when she finds out.
Fengxi said nothing, silently thinking: This young man has never been this urgent before, even when he was out with Feng Ying. If I don't show up now, I'm sure he's already on top of that hay pile, doing something quite intense.
She fixed Lu Yun with a sharp, determined gaze and said, "Are you hiding something? Are you afraid to take me to see Feng Yi?"
Seeing Lu Yun’s visibly anxious expression, Liu Fengxi felt increasingly worried. Fengyi, the girl, had no idea how to take care of herself—she knew very well she couldn’t manage Lu Yun, yet she kept making a fuss on the way home. Now, her clothes were torn to shreds. How would she get back home, Liu Fengxi thought, without even considering it was Fengyi’s clothes that had been damaged? In her mind, it was Lu Yun who had been so rough that her clothes were nearly torn apart, and she was now lying somewhere hidden, resting. Lu Yun looked at Liu Fengxi, speechless: “Fengxi sister, I truly didn’t lie to you. Fengyi indeed accidentally tore the clothes. Why won’t you believe me? Well, if you don’t believe me, then I’ll take you to see her—though, once you see her, you’ll surely regret it.” Lu Yun spoke with serious determination, not at all joking. How could he joke about going to see Liu Fengyi and seeing her face swollen from the slap given by Ma Fugui, only to come back and start arguing with Ma Fugui?
Seeing Lu Yun rise and pull at his arm, urging him toward the door, Liu Feng was both delighted and somewhat nervous. Was it possible that she had truly misunderstood the young man? Had Feng Yi really been unable to ride due to her actions—or had it simply been an accident that had torn his clothes? With a firm resolve, she shook off Lu Yun’s grip and said, “We’ll set this matter aside for now. But don’t get too confident. When I next see Feng Yi, I’ll have the full story straight. If I find out you’ve been deceiving me, don’t be surprised when I use a mouse trap to catch you—this time, I’ll even lure the mice to feed on your manhood.” Lu Yun stood there drenched in sweat. How could this woman think of such a cruel scheme? Would he then, when it came time to punish her, have to sneak a snake into her small, narrow eyes and force it to squeeze deep inside?
Hearing this, Lu Yun smiled carelessly and said to Liu Fengxi, "Fengxi sister, I've already told you—Fengyi's clothes were torn purely by accident. As long as one stands upright, shadows don't matter. Just ask her when you see her." Liu Fengxi was incensed by Lu Yun's self-satisfied demeanor. She had originally intended to let her younger sister witness Lu Yun's capabilities, so that when the younger sister was surprised, Lu Yun could make his move. Then, when Fengyi began to falter, she could step in and take over, giving herself a satisfying victory. Instead, Lu Yun had managed to call Fengyi aside while she was distracted—without even noticing her absence! "Don't think that just because this matter is settled, you'll be unscathed. Fengyi's situation is far from over. If you don't tell me the truth, you won't make it out of this unscathed either." Liu Fengxi had made up her mind to thoroughly settle things with Lu Yun. Lu Yun looked at Liu Fengxi in surprise, saying, "Fengxi sister, aren't you deliberately making things difficult for me? I have no issue at all with Fengyi sister.
"Lu Yun was forced to take a bold risk and brought Liu Fengying out. In Lu Yun's view, given Liu Fengying's nature, even if she came forward, she would absolutely refuse to admit that Lu Yun had made a strong physical intrusion using his fingers. (7) Liu Fengxi seemed to have anticipated this, and coldly hummed, saying, "You can rest assured that I'll definitely call Fengying out and question her clearly later. But for now, all my concerns are on you. I urge you not to hesitate or deflect responsibility—don't keep shifting the blame onto Fengying." Lu Yun gave a dismissive shrug and said, "Fine. If you insist on claiming that I and Fengying have done something, then present your evidence. Without evidence, you're simply wronging me, and you know what the consequences of that would be." With that, Lu Yun gave a sly, amused glance toward the long bench where Liu Fengxi was seated—one that was just long enough for him to easily leap up and start making a fuss...
