There was no time to send her to the hospital. Chen Feng had no choice but to perform CPR on Cheng Lu without thinking.
He would wake Cheng Lu up first.
Chen Feng had a girlfriend in college, so performing CPR on the naked Cheng Lu was not difficult.
After five minutes of CPR, Cheng Lu finally woke up.
"Miss Cheng, what happened?"
Chen Feng asked Cheng Lu while helping her put on a bath towel.
"The hot water in the bathroom was too strong, and I fainted."
Cheng Lu replied groggily.
Chen Feng was speechless.
Good heavens, what a pampered young lady.
She fainted from the steam.
Fortunately, she didn't live in the countryside; otherwise, she would have died of heat several times during the busy summer farming season!
"I'll leave now if you're alright," Chen Feng said softly.
"Chen Feng, thank you for saving me. Otherwise, I would have died here."
Cheng Lu looked at Chen Feng with gratitude.
A wave of joy rose in her heart.
Heaven had destined Chen Feng to save her life, and she would repay him with her life.
"Miss Cheng, we are colleagues, and even more so, friends. There's no need to be so polite."
Chen Feng replied humbly.
"Chen Feng, please see this through. I'm feeling weak all over. Can you help me to the bed to rest?"
Cheng Lu said with a blush.
"Isn't this... inappropriate?"
Chen Feng replied with a troubled expression.
The bath towel was just casually draped around Cheng Lu. If he were to carry her, the towel could easily slip off.
"You are saving me, not acting like a hooligan. There's nothing inappropriate about it."
Since Cheng Lu had said that, Chen Feng had no choice but to brace himself and carry Cheng Lu to the bed.
Things always happened as you feared them most.
As soon as he reached the bed, Cheng Lu's bath towel fell to the ground.
This meant that Chen Feng was holding the naked Cheng Lu.
Both of them subconsciously let out a scream.
"I'm sorry, Miss Cheng. I didn't mean to."
Chen Feng quickly apologized.
"Quickly put me under the covers."
Cheng Lu said with a flushed face.
Chen Feng finally came to his senses. Without a word, he quickly placed Cheng Lu under the covers.
Cheng Lu, under the covers, had a face as red as an apple and was trembling slightly.
She was a young maiden, and it was natural for her to be flustered when being held by the man she liked while naked.
It took a full ten minutes before they both recovered.
"Chen Feng, why did you come back suddenly?"
Cheng Lu, to ease the awkwardness, initiated a conversation.
"I have something to ask for your help with."
Chen Feng was direct.
"What is it?"
Cheng Lu secretly glanced at Chen Feng's handsome face, and her mind couldn't help but recall the previous scene of being held naked by Chen Feng. It felt so sweet, so blissful.
"Vice Mayor Qin wants you to use your connections in Jiangcheng to let me conduct an on-site inspection of their performance pay distribution in the Hongyan District."
Chen Feng said truthfully, without any hesitation.
"I'm afraid that won't be possible today."
"Why? Isn't today Wednesday?"
Chen Feng asked with confusion.
"It is indeed Wednesday, a workday. However, the Hongyan District is having a superior inspection today. Even if I have connections there, they won't have time for us. We can only go tomorrow."
"Miss Cheng, your connections in Jiangcheng are too powerful! You actually know that superiors are coming to inspect the Hongyan District today."
Chen Feng exclaimed subconsciously.
"I am from Jiangcheng, so I know these things."
Cheng Lu replied calmly.
Jiangcheng was a large city with many districts. Her father was the top official in Jiangcheng, so she could easily find out about the affairs of the Hongyan District.
Chen Feng was about to ask Cheng Lu to rest well when suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Chen Feng's body trembled subconsciously.
This was bad. He and Cheng Lu were in the same room in broad daylight, and they had been discovered.
Even though nothing had happened between them, a man and a woman alone in a room was something that even a thousand mouths couldn't explain.
"Who is it?"
Chen Feng asked softly.
"It's me, Vice Mayor Qin."
Qin Yan replied from outside.
Upon hearing that it was Qin Yan, the stone in Chen Feng's heart fell.
Qin Yan was not an outsider, and she knew that he was here to see Cheng Lu for a legitimate reason.
So, Chen Feng directly opened the door and welcomed Qin Yan in.
After Qin Yan entered the room, Chen Feng became nervous again.
Oh no, he had forgotten something important. Cheng Lu was currently lying naked under the covers. If Qin Yan accidentally lifted the covers, the scene would be unimaginable.
"Vice Mayor Qin, do you need the car?"
Chen Feng asked, trying to remain calm.
"My business for today is finished, and I don't need the car. I came to deliver a card."
Saying that, Qin Yan handed Chen Feng a bank card.
"Deliver a card?"
Chen Feng didn't understand for a moment.
"Yes, deliver a card. You need to go to the Hongyan District for an on-site inspection of their performance pay distribution. It's not good to go empty-handed, so you must bring some money to buy small gifts for them. If the etiquette is in place, they will definitely cooperate with you."
Qin Yan explained earnestly.
"Vice Mayor Qin, you are truly thoughtful."
Chen Feng complimented Qin Yan subconsciously.
"Cheng Lu, why are you on Qin Yan's bed?"
After discussing the important matters, Qin Yan finally noticed Cheng Lu and looked at her lying in bed with surprise.
"Vice Mayor Qin, my water heater broke, so I came over to take a shower."
Cheng Lu concealed the truth.
"So that's how it is. You are neighbors, and it's good to help each other. Alright, you two discuss how to conduct the on-site inspection in the Hongyan District. I'll head back to the office now."
Qin Yan said, then got up to leave.
Seeing Qin Yan about to leave, Cheng Lu became anxious. So far, not many people in Mingshan Town knew that she had a crush on Chen Feng. Today was a good opportunity, and she had to let Qin Yan know a little.
If Qin Yan knew she had a crush on Chen Feng, then in the future, Qin Yan wouldn't have any designs on Chen Feng during work.
In her haste, Cheng Lu deliberately picked up a cup to drink warm water and then deliberately let the cup fall onto the bed by accident.
The result was as expected. Qin Yan subconsciously lifted the covers to help Cheng Lu.
"This..."
Qin Yan was stunned.
Good heavens, why was Cheng Lu naked in Chen Feng's bed?
"Vice Mayor Qin, it's like this. Cheng Lu fainted accidentally while taking a shower in the bathroom. In a moment of urgency, I carried her to the bed to rest."
Chen Feng, who was beside her, quickly explained.
"So that's what happened."
Qin Yan said with a complex expression.
On one hand, she was happy that the relationship between the two had progressed to this point.
Cheng Lu was the daughter of an important figure in Jiangcheng, with extraordinary connections. Chen Feng was a young man with talent and unlimited potential. The closer they got, the more benefits it would bring her.
However, on the other hand, she felt a little disheartened.
The man she had finally developed feelings for was now secretly admired by another woman.
This jealousy made her very agitated.
"Cheng Lu, since you're not feeling well, rest here with Chen Feng. I'll head back to the office."
After saying that, Qin Yan left Chen Feng's room without delay.
"Chen Feng, tell me honestly, does Vice Mayor Qin like you?"
After Qin Yan left, Cheng Lu stared at Chen Feng with jealousy.
"How is that possible? Qin Yan is the Vice Mayor, and I'm just a driver. Why would she like me? Are you overthinking it?"
Chen Feng felt dizzy.
Women, they always overthink things.
"I'm not overthinking it! If Vice Mayor Qin didn't like you, why would she be so flustered upon seeing us in the same room? She even forgot her bag."
Cheng Lu retorted word by word.
