Chapter 990: Let's sleep together tonight
"You're missing the point of what I said."
Despite feeling happy inside, Murong Fei composed herself and seriously reminded Qin Tian, "My point is, that person is from the Shangguan Family, and he's a young master from the Shangguan Family at that."
"And then?"
Qin Tian dismissed it, "Please, what's next? Just because he's from the Shangguan Family, does it make him so amazing? Hehe, I've been out traveling this time, and now that I'm back, I'm here to deal with people from the Shangguan Family!"
Qin Tian's cheeks twitched slightly, "I suppose it should be less than two months before that Shangguan guy is released, right?"
Upon saying this, Qin Tian pursed his lips, and a thought crossed his mind: it's time to show true skill.
"Are you talking about Shangguan Zhenxiong from the Shangguan Family?"
Murong Fei was aware of Shangguan Zhenxiong, "My grandfather said that Shangguan Zhenxiong's martial arts skills are so strong that in the city, there's practically no one who can match him. You've only been out for a month and a half, and you're confident you can fight Shangguan Zhenxiong?"
Qin Tian didn't directly answer but instead sneered, "No one in the city can match him? Haha, what a joke. Does Shangguan Zhenxiong even deserve such a reputation?!"
If it were before, Qin Tian would have been somewhat shocked and convinced by Murong Fei's words.
But now, after encountering Yun Menghan, Qin Tian understood what it truly means to be 'beyond people, beyond skies'.
Beyond skies, beyond Earth, there are Domains. There, it's said that pulling anyone out makes them invincible on Earth. And yet Shangguan Zhenxiong claims to be invincible in the city?
"I haven't fought against Shangguan Zhenxiong, but hearing your grandfather boast about him, I've got an itch now, and really want to have a showdown with him."
Qin Tian said lightly.
The three chatted, and suddenly Murong Bei called Murong Fei.
Murong Fei answered, and before she could say much, her expression changed, then she looked at Qin Tian: "Qin Tian, my grandfather says Shangguan Zhenxiong has been released today ahead of schedule!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Tian was stunned.
What bad luck, just as he mentioned wanting to face Shangguan Zhenxiong, who'd have thought this guy had already been released.
"My grandfather is coming to Beijing tomorrow, he tells us not to act rashly," Murong Fei added.
Qin Tian nodded, "Let's wait for the old man to come and then see."
After finishing their late-night snack, the three went back, Wang Yu drove himself home, and Qin Tian drove Murong Fei to the new house she bought.
This was a small villa outside the Fifth Ring Road of Beijing, with a total price of less than twenty million. In Beijing, it was already considered a relatively low-end villa.
Because of the news that Shangguan Zhenxiong had been released, the two were somewhat silent throughout the night, speaking incoherently with bits and pieces of conversation.
"Qin Tian, you just got back today, go rest early. Don't worry; I just bought this place, so people from the Shangguan Family can't find me here so quickly."
Before sleeping that night, Murong Fei's words made Qin Tian take a deep breath.
The Shangguan Family is that terrifying?
Is Shangguan Zhenxiong so fearsome?
Just because this guy got released early, Murong Fei seemed utterly unsettled!
"I'm not worried about the Shangguan Family coming to court death; I'm worried about you."
Qin Tian stood in the hallway, looking at Murong Fei, who had already changed into her pajamas, and said, "I'm worried you're too anxious. Murong, don't worry, it's just Shangguan Zhenxiong. I'm fully prepared. Don't worry, with me here, everything will be fine."
"Okay." Murong Fei fixed her gaze on Qin Tian for several seconds, hesitated, and said, "How about... we sleep together tonight?"
"Sure, sure." Qin Tian's eyes lit up, agreeing without thinking.
"But you're not allowed to misbehave, not allowed to tease me, just sleep quietly. At most... at most, hold me while sleeping."
Murong Fei blushed as she spoke, surprised even at her own initiative.
From initially admitting Qin Tian as her boyfriend to now, perhaps she had already gotten used to having Qin Tian by her side.
"Okay, okay, I promise to behave myself," Qin Tian replied seriously.
As he approached Murong Fei's room, a pleasant fragrance wafted in, one he had smelled before in her room.
Murong Fei got into bed and lay on the inside, and Qin Tian followed, turning off the lights.
Murong Fei lay on her side, and Qin Tian turned to her, holding her from behind. Murong Fei remained still, seemingly burdened with thoughts, letting Qin Tian hold her.
Qin Tian naturally knew Murong Fei had worries, so tonight, he truly intended to be as prudent as Liu Xiahui.
After all, mutual affection requires the right mood.
Qin Tian slept for a while, and around one in the morning, as he was about to fall asleep,
he suddenly felt Murong Fei turn around, wrapping her arms around Qin Tian's neck and resting her head on his chest.
"Qin Tian, are you still awake?" Murong Fei asked softly.
"No, sleeping with you leaves me restless, my mind racing, how could I fall asleep so quickly," Qin Tian joked.
Normally, at this point, Murong Fei would laugh and scold Qin Tian, but tonight, she said nothing.
She nestled in Qin Tian's arms, and after a silence, she prayed, "I hope we can get through this time, I hope nothing happens to us."
Upon hearing this, Qin Tian hugged her tightly, growing increasingly angry inside. This Shangguan Zhenxiong seems to have caused more harm to the Murong Family than expected; even after so many years, Murong Fei still has a shadow from this guy!
"I'm going to take this guy down fair and square!" Qin Tian thought bitterly.
He gently stroked Murong Fei's smooth back, whispering, "Nothing will happen, we won't let anything happen, sleep..."
Early the next morning, at nine o'clock, Qin Tian and Murong Fei left to meet Murong Bei at the airport.
Murong Bei came out with a cane, accompanied by a bodyguard, looking somewhat weary.
Qin Tian picked them up and drove directly back to Murong Fei's villa.
In the car, Qin Tian asked, "Old man, you don't look well, what's wrong? Are you sick?"
"Ah, just a heart problem, you know Qin Tian," Murong Bei sighed, "Now that he's out, can I eat well or sleep soundly?"
"If only I were as young as I used to be, now, face to face with that person, I'd probably not last ten moves before losing."
Murong Bei was still the same, never mentioning Shangguan Zhenxiong's name, but his tone suggested great fear of Shangguan Zhenxiong.
Just then, Murong Fei, sitting in the front seat, received a call, and suddenly exclaimed in surprise:
"What? What did you say?!"
