"Yang Xin, do you understand the cost of your exaggerations? The National Security Bureau does not need such people. I believe we should discuss your reappointment," Tian Guang said coldly.
In all his life, Tian Guang absolutely despised those who exaggerated and were not pragmatic. This was clear interference with the investigation!
"A woman from the National Security Special Service Group, and you all believe her words?"
"Yeah, I almost bought it."
"One month, even entering a small boundary would already be overly exaggerated, let alone such a big boundary. Impossible!"
The whole meeting room was abuzz with discussion, almost no one believed Yang Xin’s words.
Cheng Fengqing remained silent, his gaze piercing as he stared at Yang Xin, and asked, "Yang Xin, your viewpoint is shocking. Even though I want to believe it, I can’t convince myself."
Yang Xin, at this moment, was livid with these leaders. She abruptly stood up, finger pointed towards the sky, her crisp voice echoing throughout the meeting room, "I, Yang Xin, swear on my Dao heart, if Ren Feifan did not ascend from the Yellow Level to the Profound Level in one month, I am willing to accept divine punishment, my Dao heart forever unstable!"
At this instant, the entire meeting room fell into silence.
If just now, everyone thought Yang Xin was trying to confuse the crowd, then now, everyone somewhat believed her!
Because no one in this world would dare to swear with their Dao heart as the price.
Unless what that person said is the downright truth.
Could it be that Ren Feifan really ascended from Yellow Level to Profound Level in just one month?
Speaking this out, it would indeed be shocking.
Those National Security Leaders who just now were clamoring loudly did not speak, but were gaping at Yang Xin’s face, as if they were seeing an alien!
Tian Guang was stupefied!
Wang Guohua was flabbergasted!
The rest of the leaders also bulged their eyes!
Damn, did this Ren Feifan really only take a month?!
If he reached this realm in just a month, then how could the cultivators present be able to live?!
This is murder through frustration!
Cheng Fengqing’s exterior was very calm, but deep within caused a tumultuous storm. He didn’t know why, but he somewhat believed Yang Xin’s words.
After a long time, he was the first to break the silence, saying decisively, "Two things. First, seal off the scene of the incident, destroy all the auras and evidence, Wang Guohua, you handle this. Second, thoroughly investigate Ren Feifan, compile all information. This includes all the events in the last twenty years, from his family background to how many times Ren Feifan uses the restroom each day, investigate it all. Yang Xin and Tian Guang, you are responsible for this. Third, we, the National Security Bureau, will postpone the arrest of Ren Feifan until the truth is revealed, but we must continue observing him. When necessary, we will control him so he doesn’t stir up anymore trouble!"
"Meeting adjourned! Get to work immediately!"
Ren Feifan was, of course, oblivious of this meeting at the National Security Bureau. At this moment, he was in the mysterious space, cross-legged in cultivation. He didn’t know if it was an illusion, but it seemed that cultivating in this space had a better effect than the outside world.
"Knock, knock, knock."
A series of knocking sounds echoed.
Although Ren Feifan was in the mysterious space, there were still sound feedbacks from the outside world. He pulled out a towel to wipe the sweat beads on his forehead and returned to his room.
Without using the Gazing Energy Technique, Ren Feifan could already tell that it was Xu Shihan standing at the door. Glancing at the time, it was almost ten o’clock. What business did Xu Shihan have coming to his room?
With a woman’s heart being as elusive as a needle at the bottom of the sea, Ren Feifan didn’t think too much and simply stood up to open the door.
As the door opened, it seemed as though Xu Shihan had just come out of the shower, her long, damp hair draped over her shoulders. Her double-lidded eyes gleamed with a hint of complexity; her face was beet red, and her moist, red lips were slightly biting down, as if deciding something.
As his gaze slowly dropped, Xu Shihan wore a T-shirt, her proud chest lifting the garment to reveal two captivating mountains. She wore shorts on the bottom, revealing her fair long legs.
Ren Feifan was wide-eyed, had this Ice Mountain CEO taken the wrong medicine today, even her dressing style had changed? Was she wearing such a spicy outfit?
Or was she planning some beauty trick?
"Xu Shihan, what are you trying to do?" Ren Feifan swallowed, his eyes briefly straying to her attractive chest, before focusing back on Xu Shihan’s face.
Something was off, why was her face so red?
As though she hadn’t heard Ren Feifan’s question at all, Xu Shihan with some effort pushed him away, and then with a ’thud’ shut the door.
Ren Feifan, caught off guard, was pushed back onto the bed, thinking to himself, "is Xu Shihan thirsty in the middle of the night and planning to... well, that would be a good development."
With her head lowered, Xu Shihan lightly bit her lip so hard that Ren Feifan suspected she was about to draw blood.
Xu Shihan then sat down directly on the bed, maintaining a distance from Ren Feifan which he couldn’t tell whether was intentional or not.
Ren Feifan grew more suspicious, and gently asked, "What is it that you want to say?"
"Ren Feifan, today..."
Xu Shihan looked as if she wanted to speak but stopped, leaving Ren Feifan increasingly anxious. What exactly did she want to say?
"Forget it, it’s nothing!"
Xu Shihan gritted her teeth, laid down openly, flipped over, and covered herself with the quilt.
A coquettish voice came from under the quilt, and Xu Shihan disappeared under it.
At that moment, Ren Feifan could even hear Xu Shihan’s heavy breathing, and he carefully recalled the day’s events. Suddenly, it hit him.
During the day, Xu Shihan had mentioned something about wanting him to save her father, in exchange for a certain price. She had said something resembling "tonight"...
At the time, Ren Feifan hadn’t let her finish, but for her to show up in his room in the middle of the night clearly indicated her passionate intent.
Ren Feifan laughed ruefully at himself. He couldn’t understand how the CEO had thought of such a thing. Even though he did have those needs, he would never resort to such means to fulfill them. What would be the difference between that and a despicable man?
What’s more, Ren Feifan already knew that Xu Shihan was his arranged fiancée, his so-called concubine, as per the old man. It seemed like fate that they had accidentally entered into this arrangement.
Ren Feifan helplessly shook his head, casually took off his clothes and pants, left on only his boxers, and slid underneath the quilt.
They were now under the same quilt.
Xu Shihan, hiding under the quilt, had her long legs touch Ren Feifan’s. The warmth made her cheeks turn even redder. It seemed like she was about to give herself up tonight. But it was all worth it to have her father cured and her family saved.
"You can come, I am ready."
Ren Feifan changed position slightly, lying on his side, and looked at Xu Shihan with curiosity: "Are you sure you won’t regret it?"
Before Xu Shihan could finish her sentence, Ren Feifan switched positions again. The quilt was abruptly drawn away and the next moment, his bare body was pressing on hers, a wicked smile playing on his lips.
"Xu Shihan, let’s get one thing clear, I saved your father, not for your body. How would that be any different from a beast?" Ren Feifan said.
"Hmph! When I, Xu Shihan, say something, I mean it! I don’t want to owe you anything!"
Ren Feifan, looking at Xu Shihan’s defiant attitude, shook his head helplessly. Just how long would this girl remain stubborn? Seems like she needed to learn a lesson.
