Others seek their pleasures, and that’s their business; Chu Feng simply despised them in his heart.
He had no intention of meddling in others’ affairs.
"Alchemy Master Qiao, Chu Feng has arrived!"
The one driving the carriage at the front happened to be an acquaintance of Chu Feng’s with a slight familial relation.
It was none other than Qiao Yue’er’s elder cousin.
Indeed, it was surprising that a Pill Master from the Pharmacist Guild ended up stooping to the level of willingly being a coachman. Sitting at the front of the carriage, hearing the flirtatious banter between the man and woman inside, what could Elder Cousin possibly be feeling?
Chu Feng already knew who was inside the carriage; it was Qiao Dusi.
It seemed Elder Cousin was dead set on clinging to Qiao Dusi’s coattails.
It’s ironic how people can be. Chu Feng held a much higher position in the Alchemy Master Guild compared to Elder Cousin. Instead of currying favor with Great Pill Master Chu, Elder Cousin chose to support a man inferior to even Niu Baotian.
And the way he chose to ingratiate himself was to degrade himself by serving as Qiao Dusi’s coachman.
Indeed, when the carriage curtain was lifted, the scene unfolded before Chu Feng, causing him to narrow his eyes slightly.
There, sitting together with Qiao Dusi, was none other than Lin Yuxin.
With a face full of smiles, she seemed extremely happy.
The moment Lin Yuxin saw Chu Feng, a flicker of embarrassment crossed her face, and she instinctively tried to push Qiao Dusi away.
"Treasure, don’t move! Let your former boyfriend take a good look at how the poor deserve no girlfriend!" Qiao Dusi deliberately waited at the academy’s gate just to thoroughly humiliate Chu Feng.
A more luxurious carriage stopped in the distance, its curtain lifted as the Second Prince watched everything with a smile.
This wretched waste, Chu Feng, who dared to humiliate this prince time and again. Today, I’ll just collect some interest first.
Hehe, seeing his beloved woman embraced by another man, his heart must be bleeding, surely his face has already turned green. Hahaha... When the brat is distraught and roars in anger, this prince will then go sprinkle some salt on his wounds.
"Eh, something’s wrong, why does that waste look so indifferent?"
"He must be pretending!"
The Second Prince had meticulously set this trap to get back at Chu Feng. Alas, despite all his efforts, it didn’t achieve the desired effect.
Qiao Dusi of course knew the Second Prince was watching from a distance.
Stealing Chu Feng’s woman was also a deliberate act to curry favor with the Second Prince.
"Tsk tsk, quite the beauty indeed! Too bad, she’s become my girlfriend now..." Qiao Dusi looked down at Chu Feng with a face full of provocation.
He was determined to infuriate Chu Feng to the point of vomiting blood.
"Ha, pretty isn’t she? Delightful, right?"
Chu Feng wore a bright, unconcerned smile as he looked at Qiao Dusi and Lin Yuxin.
"Too bad, she’s long been my person; you’re just scavenging leftovers... heh, I’m only halfway through, does Alchemy Master Qiao find it disgusting already?"
"Your Alchemy Master Qiao likes picking up someone else’s leftovers; nobody’s stopping you, as long as you don’t find it disgusting!"
By the time Chu Feng finished speaking, Qiao Dusi’s expression had become incredibly ugly.
He had spent quite a sum of Silver chasing Lin Yuxin these days.
In the end, he picked up akin to worn-out shoes, yet here he was, flaunting proudly. He felt even more nauseous than if he had swallowed a fly.
"You... you..." Qiao Dusi, face ashen, pointed at Chu Feng, trying to curse something, but he was at a loss for words.
"Hehe, Alchemy Master Qiao wants to thank me? Don’t rush, don’t rush, next time I dump a girlfriend, I’ll definitely notify you!" Chu Feng laughed heartily and walked off.
Sitting inside the carriage, Lin Yuxin trembled with rage.
Her phoenix eyes spat fire, and she cursed through gritted teeth, "Chu Feng, don’t you dare slander me, you bastard!"
Chu Feng had once thought this woman was quite nice. At least she hadn’t shown any deep scheming.
Of course, that was also because Chu Feng’s time at the Alchemy Academy was short, and he had limited interaction with her. So he hadn’t gotten to know her deeply.
Seeing her behave now, Chu Feng secretly felt relieved.
Fortunately, he hadn’t been foolish enough to harbor genuine feelings for her. Moreover, the main reason was to resolve the obsessions left by his predecessor.
Chu Feng gave a cold smile, after all, he had saved Lin Yuxin three times.
It only made sense to get some payback. To give her a lesson.
"Little Yu Xin, don’t treat all the men in the world like fools. Alchemy Master Qiao isn’t a fool either."
"Not to mention, if she were a pure and innocent girl, would she allow a man to embrace her so easily, all while wearing a face full of enjoyment? People want face, trees need bark, who would be as generous and casual as you?"
Chu Feng’s words were truly heart-piercing. But this method of sowing discord was very effective.
You could tell by the iron-blue color of Qiao Dusi’s face, pushing Lin Yuxin aside with a mixture of disdain and scorn.
After successfully nauseating both Qiao Dusi and Lin Yuxin, this greedy, unprincipled wretch, Chu Feng scanned the luxurious carriage in the distance.
In the entire Royal Capital, only a few could own such a grand and majestic carriage.
Chu Feng recognized it in an instant; it was the Second Prince’s carriage.
It’s just that the coachman had been dealt with by Chu Feng last time, and now there was a new one.
Chu Feng, aiming at the Second Prince, raised his thumb from afar. However, the tip of his thumb pointed downwards, silently mocking the Second Prince, showing you’re not capable.
"This waste, daring to make such a contemptuous gesture at this prince. I’m furious!"
"Too arrogant, too disdainful!"
The Second Prince violently grabbed the carriage curtain and threw it down, hopping madly.
He originally wanted to see Chu Feng roar in anger, but instead, Chu Feng wore a smile on his face, unbothered. It was instead this Second Prince who burst a lung, jumping and swearing furiously.
This is truly self-inflicted.
After tormenting the Second Prince and Qiao Dusi, Chu Feng headed straight to the auction.
Upon arriving at the auction, Manager Fu greeted Chu Feng as if he were the God of Wealth, warmly and respectfully. He proceeded to settle the full amount of Silver from the auction of the elixirs to Chu Feng.
As Chu Feng anticipated, the batch of Golden Talisman Elixirs he had crafted was highly sought after and fetched an ideal high price.
