Just as Qin Feng opened his mouth to say something, Lu Yunxi suddenly tripped over a stone, tumbled several times, and fell into the lake.

Seeing this, Qin Feng's expression changed slightly, and he subconsciously wanted to take a step forward to save the person, but was pulled back by Mu Qingxue.

"It seems fate is taking her life. Are you sure you want to save her?"

Mu Qingxue stared at Qin Feng with a serious expression, her demeanor undergoing a dramatic change.

The seemingly delicate woman exuded a chilling aura.

Qin Feng frowned slightly, his expression shifting between light and dark for a moment, before he shook off Mu Qingxue's hand and turned to leave.

Lu Yunxi's fate was entirely her own doing; she should just accept her death.

Watching Qin Feng's departing figure, Mu Qingxue sighed softly, "That guy is too kind; I have to help him!"

Then, Mu Qingxue picked up her phone, which had fallen to the ground, and sent a message.

The message was very simple: Qingyue Lake, eliminate all traces and destroy all evidence!

......

Since Qingyue Lake is in the suburbs, and it's nighttime now, there isn't a single car in sight.

Qin Feng and Mu Qingxue had no choice but to walk back to the city.

After walking for a while, Mu Qingxue became somewhat exhausted and looked pained.

Qin Feng noticed Mu Qingxue's unusual behavior, stopped, and said speechlessly, "You're the president of HarmonyOS Technology, why didn't you call someone to pick you up?"

Mu Qingxue rolled her eyes at Qin Feng and snorted, "It's so late and we're in the middle of nowhere. What will the people who brought the car think if they see us like this?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng gave a strange look and retorted, "Are you out of your mind? I can just hide when the people delivering the car are about to arrive, can't I?"

"Besides, so what if others find out? There's nothing between us, so we don't need to care about what others think!"

Mu Qingxue's face darkened, and she retorted, "You're the one with a screw loose! Your whole family has screw loose!"

Qin Feng blinked, then asked suspiciously, "Are you worried that someone might find out we're near Qingyue Lake tonight, which could arouse unnecessary suspicion?"

Mu Qingxue glanced at Qin Feng and scoffed, "At least you have some brains!"

"I've suffered all this to help you clean up the mess. You'd better thank me properly when we get back!"

Qin Feng said speechlessly, "Looks like you really have a screw loose. You didn't kill all those people tonight. Zhang Zhaonian's father knows what he was up to tonight!"

Mu Qingxue was stunned for a moment, and said somewhat awkwardly, "I almost forgot that his father also knew about this, but I still think we should kill all those people."

Qin Feng sighed softly, "They were just following orders; I couldn't bring myself to do it!"

Mu Qingxue chuckled and said, "That's just womanly compassion!"

“Those people who came with Zhang Zhaonian to kill you are unlikely to be good people; they must have killed someone on their hands!”

“Being kind to such people is leaving yourself with a huge hidden danger.”

Qin Feng frowned slightly but did not reply.

After hearing Mu Qingxue's words, he had to admit that he was being a bit too soft-hearted.

Fortunately, he was all alone, so he didn't need to worry about anything.

If those people dare to come looking for us, it's not too late to kill them!

Mu Qingxue opened her mouth, wanting to tell Qin Feng that she had already sent people to deal with those people, but in the end she gave up the idea.

There was no particular reason; she simply didn't want Qin Feng to know that she was such a ruthless woman.

Then, she changed the subject, saying, "Qin Feng, are you even a man?"

"Didn't you see my feet are swollen from walking?"

Qin Feng chuckled and said, "Of course I'm a man, but what does it have to do with me that your feet are swollen from walking?"

Mu Qingxue's face darkened, and she said somewhat angrily, "If it weren't for you, would I have been taken to Qingyue Lake in the middle of the night?"

"If it weren't for you, would my feet have gotten so swollen from walking?"

Qin Feng said speechlessly, "What does this have to do with me? If you had revealed your identity back then, would Zhang Zhaonian have dared to capture you and take you to Qingyue Lake?"

Mu Qingxue opened her mouth, but had no words to reply.

Seeing that Mu Qingxue remained silent, Qin Feng looked down at the woman's feet and indeed found them slightly swollen.

This place is quite a distance from the city center, and the woman certainly can't hold on in her current condition.

Then, he squatted down directly in front of Mu Qingxue. "Get on!"

Mu Qingxue looked at Qin Feng squatting in front of her, her face slightly flushed, and she hesitated. "Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

If she lets Qin Feng carry her, wouldn't her body be in close contact with Qin Feng's back?

How embarrassing!

Qin Feng knew Mu Qingxue's concerns, but what time is it now? Is she still thinking about this? Is she out of her mind?

"Why don't you walk back yourself?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Qingxue immediately chickened out. She gritted her teeth, steeled her resolve, and climbed onto Qin Feng's back.

Qin Feng immediately sensed something amiss behind him and exclaimed inwardly, "Wow, this woman is surprisingly well-endowed!"

Mu Qingxue blushed and snorted coldly, "What are you staring at? Get up right now!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng quickly composed himself and said speechlessly, "You're so heavy, I have to conserve my strength, right?"

"Qin Feng, say that again!"

"Oh ho, you're so fat, and you can't even let people talk about you?"

"Qin Feng, don't force me!"

"I'm forcing you, so what? If you're not happy, get off my back!"

Mu Qingxue was furious, but she managed to suppress her anger and remain silent.

Seeing that Mu Qingxue had behaved herself, Qin Feng got up with satisfaction and headed towards the city center with a restless mind.

Qin Feng and Mu Qingxue returned to the city around 1 a.m. the next day.

Because their home had been vandalized by Zhang Zhaonian and his men, the two decided to check into a hotel for the night.

When they arrived at the hotel, they found that there was only one room left.

Qin Feng wanted to go to another hotel, but Mu Qingxue insisted on booking a room, citing her painful feet.

Since he wasn't afraid of a single woman, Qin Feng naturally didn't care either.

Back in the room, Qin Feng had just sat Mu Qingxue down on the edge of the bed when Mu Qingxue said pitifully, "Qin Feng, my feet hurt a lot. Could you go out and buy some medicine for me?"

Qin Feng subconsciously looked down at Mu Qingxue's feet, which were much better than before.

Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any problems with walking normally, and the pain should have lessened considerably.

He hesitated for a moment and asked, "How about I rub it for you?"

Mu Qingxue was stunned for a moment, then immediately shook her head. "No!"

Qin Feng was speechless. "My hands are much more effective than any medicine. Just let me massage them for a while, and I guarantee you'll be jumping and running around by tomorrow morning!"

Mu Qingxue asked suspiciously, "Qin Feng, are you kidding me? You're not just trying to take advantage of me, are you?"

Qin Feng's face darkened immediately upon hearing this. "Are you crazy?"

"If I wanted to take advantage of you, I would have already done it to you back in the wilderness. Why would I wait until now?"
