On the other side, Lin Feng used Fei Zhu Ji Su and quickly brought Duan Liang back to the small two-story building.
Hua Yu was about to fall asleep but was rudely awakened by the intrusion of Lin Feng and Duan Liang.
Hua Yu, wearing a coat, came downstairs and was shocked by the scene before her.
Lin Feng was supporting Duan Liang, who was covered in blood, and gently laid him on the ground.
Duan Liang immediately sat down cross-legged and began to heal his injuries.
“Lin Feng, what happened to the Daoist priest?”
Hua Yu looked astonished. She hadn’t expected such a powerful expert as Duan Liang to be injured to this extent.
“The Daoist priest fought with three Heavenly Ranking experts from the Ye family and narrowly won.”
Lin Feng gave a wry smile.
Lin Feng was also surprised by this outcome.
He had truly underestimated the Ye family’s strength. Fortunately, Hua Yu had warned him beforehand.
Otherwise, if he had fought the Ye family alone, the outcome would have been uncertain.
Although Duan Liang was injured, he had ultimately deterred the Ye family.
For the time being, the Ye family would not dare to provoke him again.
“Then let the Daoist priest recuperate. You, come with me.”
Hua Yu realized, gesturing for Lin Feng to follow her upstairs.
“My dear Miss Hua, at this late hour, you want me to go upstairs with you. Don’t tell me you’ve been moved by me and finally decided to consummate our marriage?”
Lin Feng followed Hua Yu, his gaze lingering on her shapely rear, encased in a pink silk nightgown, and her bare white feet in slippers. He felt an urge to reach out and touch them.
“Stop talking nonsense. I know you don’t have that intention.”
Hua Yu snorted, completely ignoring Lin Feng’s teasing.
“Alright, then I’ll pretend I didn’t say anything. Who am I but a gentleman in your eyes.”
Lin Feng chuckled and, with a hint of resignation, followed Hua Yu to the bedroom on the second floor.
Hua Yu sat on the edge of the bed and then looked at Lin Feng, saying, “Uncle Shou called me. My family wants me to bring you back with me.”
“Initially, I was curious why my family suddenly wanted me to bring you back. Now I understand.”
Lin Feng understood Hua Yu’s meaning and agreed, “You’re right. My family must have learned about the Ye family’s actions and thinks I’m becoming more impressive to them, wanting to recognize me as their son-in-law.”
“Since your family wants me to visit as their son-in-law, I’ll go back with you.”
Lin Feng said understandingly.
“But I don’t want to go back. I finally managed to escape my family’s control. I’m afraid that if I go back this time, they won’t let me leave again.”
Hua Yu voiced her concern.
“Don’t worry. Don’t I have you? I, Lin Feng, would lay down my life for my wife. They can’t keep you if they want to.”
“I haven’t even kissed your lips yet. If I were to send you back like this, I’d feel wronged myself.”
Lin Feng teased.
“Can you stop being so indecent when you speak? My family dislikes people who speak crudely.”
Hua Yu’s face flushed slightly at Lin Feng’s words, worried he might say something inappropriate at her home.
“Okay, I’ll be careful from now on.”
“Then let’s not delay. Shall we go to your house now?”
Lin Feng thought that once Duan Liang recovered, he would immediately demand the cultivation technique for Fei Zhu Ji Su.
Rather than being coerced by Duan Liang, it would be better to take the initiative and make the old Taoist wait anxiously.
“Now? But the Daoist priest is still here. Aren’t we going to leave him?”
Hua Yu asked, surprised.
“He’s not going to die. He’s a grown man; he doesn’t need us to look after him.”
“Let’s go. You change into a pretty dress, and we’ll head to your house now.”
Lin Feng said, then went downstairs to wait for Hua Yu.
Hua Yu knew she couldn’t avoid it; she would have to face her family sooner or later. She could only change her clothes and take Lin Feng home.
To show that she was living well, Hua Yu specifically took out the dress she wore when she first came to Qingcheng.
However, the dress had been stored for too long and was somewhat wrinkled. When Hua Yu wore it, she looked like a little maid, lacking the demeanor of a young lady from a prominent family.
Lin Feng knew that Hua Yu might not have many presentable clothes.
Seeing Hua Yu hesitating to come downstairs, he took out the storage bag he had snatched from Duan Liang earlier and pulled out an expensive women’s outfit.
“Here, wear this. I prepared this for you earlier.”
Lin Feng pushed open the door and handed the clothes to Hua Yu.
“You prepared this for me?”
Hua Yu took the clothes, even more surprised.
“Yes, this storage bag can hold many things. I asked Sun Xiqing to buy me a lot of daily necessities for emergencies.”
“I also bought clothes, cosmetics, and accessories for you; they’re all stored in the storage bag.”
As Lin Feng spoke, he willed it, and a pair of silver diamond-studded earrings appeared in his hand.
“Oh, and a necklace. It won’t look good to wear this kind of formal dress without a necklace.”
Lin Feng then took out a tassel necklace.
Hua Yu hadn’t expected Lin Feng to be so thoughtful as to prepare so many things for her in advance. A string in her heart finally trembled slightly.
In fact, the women’s clothing Lin Feng had prepared wasn’t just for Hua Yu but also for Liu Mengyao and the others.
He worried that if he were being chased one day, he might have to flee with the women like Liu Mengyao without food or drink, so he had prepared a lot of daily necessities beforehand.
He hadn’t expected them to be useful now.
After waiting downstairs for over ten minutes, Hua Yu finally changed her clothes.
Lin Feng looked at Hua Yu in her new outfit and felt like he was looking at a celestial being.
Hua Yu was already tall, and with the off-the-shoulder white long dress, her graceful collarbones, her snow-white skin, and a silver tassel necklace, she looked like a fairy descended from heaven.
What was most captivating was that after putting on the silver high heels, Hua Yu’s perfect figure was fully showcased.
Her shapely calves, her flat stomach devoid of any excess flesh, and her legs, which seemed to be at least 1.8 meters long, were simply lethal to Lin Feng.
They say legs can be enjoyed for a year; Lin Feng felt Hua Yu’s legs could be enjoyed for a lifetime.
Normally, Hua Yu preferred a comfortable and quiet life and didn’t wear much makeup or dress up. This had made Lin Feng forget that Hua Yu was a beauty from a prominent family.
It was only at this moment that Lin Feng realized how truly beautiful Hua Yu was.
Her exquisite features were as if meticulously carved by the Creator. With just a light touch of makeup, Hua Yu seemed a hundred times more stunning than those celebrity beauties.
The key was that Hua Yu’s face was naturally beautiful, a kind of natural beauty that could never be matched by the current trend of “internet celebrity faces.”
“You’re really beautiful. If a hundred points were a perfect score, I’d give you ninety-nine.”
Lin Feng said, looking at the beauty before him.
Hua Yu slightly furrowed her delicate brows: “Why ninety-nine points?”
“Because I’m afraid you’ll get arrogant with one more point.”
Lin Feng replied with a smile, then became a bit fidgety. “Miss Hua, why don’t we not go back to your house tonight?”
“Why aren’t we going back now? Didn’t you insist on going back immediately?”
Hua Yu looked at the fickle Lin Feng, confused and unsure what he was up to.
“Because you’re too beautiful right now. I’m afraid your family will see us standing together and think I’m a toad eating swan meat. If they disagree with our marriage, won’t I be at a great loss?”
Lin Feng grinned mischievously, suppressing the urge to pounce on Hua Yu and ravage her.
Hua Yu rolled her eyes, looking at the overly worried Lin Feng with a mixture of amusement and exasperation.
“It’s not as exaggerated as you say. I just changed my clothes and put on some light makeup. It’s not like that.”
Although Hua Yu spoke dismissively, seeing Lin Feng’s infatuated gaze, she couldn’t help but feel a strange sense of happiness.
After all, no woman dislikes being beautiful, and Hua Yu was no exception.
Especially hearing such high praise from Lin Feng’s mouth, Hua Yu truly felt beautiful.
