Chapter 162: The Fascinating Man!
"Uncle, that slap you gave was fantastic!"
That evening, when Chu Feifei heard about Nangong Qingcheng and Liu Shiyuan's midday ordeal, she was furious, wanting nothing more than to find Zhang Qinyao and settle the score. However, when Liu Shiyuan timidly informed her that Jiang Feng had already given Zhang a piece of his mind, Chu Feifei finally let out a sigh of relief.
"I've always known that Zhang Qinyao is nothing but trouble. Qingcheng, Shiyan, you two should stay away from her from now on—it's best if the company just fires her. I don't want to see her again!" Chu Feifei huffed angrily.
Since there were no classes that afternoon, Jiang Feng took Nangong Qingcheng and Liu Shiyuan straight back to the office after leaving Hongyue Building. Chu Feifei had been livestreaming at home for most of the day, and they finally gathered together at this point.
"It's a pity I wasn't there to see that awesome slap Uncle gave; it sounds so satisfying and vindicating!" Chu Feifei expressed with some regret.
Watching Chu Feifei gesticulating excitedly, Nangong Qingcheng and Liu Shiyuan exchanged glances. Nangong Qingcheng said, "Forget it, we're all classmates, and we're even roommates. There's no need to go to extremes. We'll just learn from this experience. Besides, Jiang Feng has already dealt with her; she won't dare do anything again."
"Hmph, Qingcheng, you're too kind and easy-going, and with Shiyan, it's even more so—she's as timid as a little lamb. Zhang Qinyao must have figured this out about you both, which is why she dared to scheme against you. It seems like I'll have to constantly be your guardian from now on, protecting you two beautiful ladies." Chu Feifei stated earnestly.
Nangong Qingcheng: "..."
Liu Shiyuan: "..."
"By the way, tell me how that slap was delivered. Was it crisp and loud?" Chu Feifei asked with renewed interest, hopping onto the sofa, propping her white feet on the coffee table, filled with curiosity.
"Fei'er, let's not worry about that now. I want to know—Jiang Feng slapped someone named Tang Fei today, and afterward, his father and your father both showed up. Did it cause any trouble for you?" Nangong Qingcheng, ever attentive, sat next to Chu Feifei and asked.
"What trouble could it cause? If Uncle hadn't dealt with him thoroughly, I would have called him out myself. Who does he think he is? Just because he got a little polished abroad, he thinks he's hot stuff and even dared to mess with my friends. Does he really think he can run amok in Binhai?" Chu Feifei said, genuinely annoyed.
Nangong Qingcheng and Liu Shiyan were shocked—Tang Fei hadn't said that! He mentioned he and Chu Feifei were childhood friends with an even better relationship...
If the two had known Chu Feifei's attitude was actually like this, they wouldn't have been so troubled before.
"That Tang Fei was rotten from a young age. He took advantage of his father being my dad's sworn brother and once saving my dad's life to act lawlessly. Back in high school, he got a girl pregnant, endangering her health and nearly costing her life. Ultimately, his dad had to clean up the mess! He's done countless despicable things, and I've always despised him!"
"But his dad...?"
"Yes, his dad is a major shareholder in the Chu Group and holds a significant position. He used to be a great man, noble and righteous, but after my dad and the others built the company, he started acting self-important and even got involved in scandals with the company receptionist, embezzled assets, and more. He's a complete cancer to the group. My dad kept him around out of old loyalties, but I see him as a bad influence who set a bad example for his son..."
Since they were all close, Chu Feifei seldom vented like this and decided to share these messy affairs of the Chu family with the two women.
"Enough talk; let's eat!"
At that moment, Jiang Feng came out carrying four steaming bowls of noodles. That night, Nangong Qingcheng and Liu Shiyuan didn't have much of an appetite to go out, so he had to cook at home—it was still the seafood sauce noodles, the trio's favorite.
"Brother Jiang, let me help you." Liu Shiyuan hurried over to help Jiang Feng with the bowls.
"The bowl without scallions is yours," Jiang Feng pointed at one bowl, addressing Chu Feifei.
As he looked up, he saw Chu Feifei still sitting so casually, wearing only a silky robe, her two white, delicate feet propped up on the coffee table. From Jiang Feng's perspective, his gaze could easily travel along her slender, smooth legs, even catching a glimpse of her pink underwear. It was a bit too much...
Before Jiang Feng could point out Chu Feifei's inappropriate posture, she started laughing at him, giggling because, though he held the bowls of noodles, his face was marked with gray smudges—likely from accidentally staining himself under the rangehood while cooking.
Nangong Qingcheng, seeing Jiang Feng like that, also couldn't help but chuckle. Coming over to help Jiang Feng with the remaining bowls, she softly laughed, "Go wash your face."
"What's on my face?" Jiang Feng furrowed his brow and instinctively touched his face.
"Just look in the mirror, and you'll see," Nangong Qingcheng grinned, turning away.
Jiang Feng perplexedly walked into the washroom and saw it was just a bit of dust. After cleaning up and returning, he found the three women already seated at the table.
"Uncle, you're playing favorites!" Suddenly, Chu Feifei shouted at him.
"What happened?" Jiang Feng asked as he approached.
"Why does Qingcheng have an extra poached egg in her bowl, but I only have one?" Chu Feifei complained like a little girl treated unfairly.
"Qingcheng had a rough time at noon; it's normal to give her extra," Jiang Feng replied sincerely. He and Nangong Qingcheng shared a glance, each understanding the deeper meaning.
"Then why does Shiyan also only have one?" Chu Feifei was disgruntled, seemingly bothered by Jiang Feng's special treatment of Nangong Qingcheng.
Jiang Feng was momentarily taken aback; that was indeed an oversight. While making the noodles, he had focused solely on pampering his wife and inadvertently forgot about Liu Shiyuan...
Fortunately, Liu Shiyuan stepped in to diffuse the situation, timidly saying, "Fei'er, one is enough for me. I can't finish two..."
"You..." Chu Feifei glared at her but had nothing else to say, merely puffing in frustration.
At this time, Nangong Qingcheng gave Jiang Feng a look with deeper meaning, feeling a warm sentiment in her heart.
After all, Jiang Feng was always the kindest to her.
Nevertheless, witnessing Jiang Feng in this domestic setting, she couldn't quite comprehend him anymore.
During the day, Jiang Feng was so domineering and intimidating, striking fear into others.
While cooking, he appeared a bit naive and kind of cute...
And now, he was gentle and caring, a big warm guy yet again...
Such a man is truly captivating!
