Chapter 164 Thick-skinned

evening.

The more Su Jin thought about it all afternoon, the more she felt something was wrong.

At first, she noticed that Master Kong looked at her unusually and thought that he had some bad intentions.

But Nie Lixin's appearance made her completely deny this.

When Nie Lixin tried to harm Liu Wanrong, Master Kong stayed far away.

Even though Nie Lixin was chasing after Liu Wanrong, he didn't go up to her.

Why was he so reckless when Nie Lixin attacked her, even going so far as to use his hands to snatch the fruit knife?

And when asked his name, why did he specifically look at Wang Liang?

This was definitely not an unconscious act.

It seems she needs to find an opportunity to meet Master Kong alone.

"Commander Xiao, you're back!"

Wu Ma's voice could be heard from downstairs.

Su Jin immediately gathered her thoughts and perked up.

This happened again today when she went out, and I don't know how Xiao Yunfeng will react.

So she made a decisive and important decision.

That means... I won't go out for dinner tonight; I'll try to avoid it for as long as possible.

Perhaps by tomorrow Xiao Yunfeng won't be so angry as to hold a grudge against her.

However, her little plan was shattered a few seconds later when she heard Xiao Yunfeng coming upstairs.

The sound of leather shoes stepping on the stairs terrified Su Jin.

The next second she wrapped herself up tightly and sealed herself to the bed.

A moment later, footsteps entered the house.

She began to regret it again, wondering why she hadn't closed and locked the door beforehand.

When Xiao Yunfeng came in, what he saw was a bulge on the bed.

There was indeed some anger at first, but in that instant, it was replaced by helplessness.

"Xiao Jin?"

He called her name, seemingly to make sure she was asleep.

Su Jin's features contorted in pain, stiffening herself to prevent herself from making the slightest sound.

Xiao Yunfeng continued, "Asleep? Aren't you afraid of suffocating with yourself wrapped up so tightly?"

Su Jin continued to play dead.

"Alright, since you're asleep, let's talk about it tomorrow," Xiao Yunfeng murmured, his words clear enough for the person under the covers to hear.

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of footsteps leaving echoed, and then the door was closed again.

Su Jin strained her ears to listen to the sounds outside.

After waiting cautiously for a while, I finally breathed a long sigh of relief and then lifted the covers.

"Xiao Yunfeng is really getting more and more... well... well... gulp..."

Seeing that Xiao Yunfeng, who should have left, was actually leaning against the bedside, her complaints turned into stuttering, and in the end she could only swallow her saliva in fear.

"Xiao Yunfeng?" Xiao Yunfeng crossed his arms, his eyebrows raised high, repeating the way she had just addressed him.

Su Jin wanted to cry but had no tears. Hadn't he left?

That old fox tricked her!

"Heh, heh. Little, Uncle, what are you saying? Why are you calling yourself by your own name all of a sudden?"

Damn it, my tongue is all messed up.

Xiao Yunfeng's lips curled into a smile, but it sent chills down her spine.

"That means someone has become so audacious as to call me by my name directly."

Su Jin shook her head so hard it was like she was writing "I didn't" on her forehead.

"Uncle, are you getting old and your hearing isn't working well? Nobody here calls you by your name!"

She was really going all out; as long as she had enough shamelessness, she could avoid a beating.
