Chapter 42 The bed collapsed. The rosewood bed made a mournful sound and became...
Gu Yifeng followed the direction Wen Yi pointed and carried her into the bathroom. Inside the door was a dark marble bathtub.
A satisfying fantasy made Wen Yi soften in his arms, her breath still carrying the lingering heat.
"Put me down." She said hoarsely.
Gu Yifeng gently put her down and watched her lower her head to turn on the bathtub faucet. The water slowly flowed into the bathtub. She stepped into the bathtub and sat down.
He followed in. The originally spacious bathtub seemed a bit cramped after both of them sat down.
Wen Yi faced him, sitting between his legs. She always felt that they were rubbing against each other intentionally or unintentionally. Her cheeks turned slightly red, and she couldn't help but lean back.
“…” Gu Yifeng pulled her forward again, put his arms around her waist, and gently moved along her waistline.
Wen Yi was too embarrassed to look him in the eye, so she just lowered her head to glance at the rising water level in the bathtub.
Wen Yi: Still coming? Someone is so powerful...
"look up."
Wen Yi involuntarily raised her head, and his kiss followed her breathlessly. Almost instinctively, Wen Yi wrapped her arms around his back, lingering on his lips.
"Hmm...wait..." Wen Yi vaguely realized the pool was full, the sound of water splashing in her ears. She patted the man on the back, "Wait, turn off the water first."
Gu Yifeng seemed unable to stop the kiss. He casually touched the faucet with one hand and turned it hard, while with the other hand he pressed the back of Wen Yi's head, forcing her to kiss him again. After turning the faucet, his hand sank into the water, and his fingertips slid across her tender skin.
Hmm... Wen Yi couldn't help but let out a muffled moan, but it was sealed between the lips by a deeper kiss, and fell into Gu Yifeng's ears, like a proud moan of extreme passion.
The haunting sound caused a certain part of his body to tighten. After struggling silently for a few seconds, he finally threw away his remaining rationality and carried her to the edge of the bathtub.
Wen Yi suddenly lost her balance and barely managed to steady herself by holding onto the pool wall, her legs unconsciously curling tightly around his waist.
Gu Yifeng stared at her intently, and actually saw charm and purity on her face at the same time. It was so contradictory, yet surprisingly reasonable, as if she was born to be like this, and would always have a fatal attraction to him.
Wen Yi tilted her head and looked at him for a long time without saying anything, frowning slightly: "What's wrong?"
"I……"
"Hmm?" She raised her hand and casually played with Gu Yifeng's hair. After not seeing him for a few days, his bangs had grown so long. Suddenly, a sentence popped up in her mind: Married as husband and wife, love and affection are undoubted.
Husband and wife...is it a process or a result?
She suddenly put her arms around his neck and whispered something in his ear.
Gu Yifeng was slightly startled, and the restraint in his eyes collapsed instantly. The next second, he finally couldn't hold it back anymore, and took her in the misty bathtub.
The shadows of the two people were closely intertwined at the edge of the pool, and the water in the pool swayed slightly, constantly overflowing the edge of the bathtub.
It was almost dusk when the two of them finished playing, and the setting sun dyed the courtyard a warm orange.
Gu Yifeng carried Wen Yi back to the bedroom. She leaned against him, soft and quiet. He looked down at her, a satisfied smile on his lips.
She leaned lazily against his chest: "You, your brain is not good. I, my body is not good. It's really a match made in heaven."
Gu Yifeng chuckled softly and was about to speak when he suddenly tripped.
“!”
Gu Yifeng didn't notice the inconspicuous footstool beside the bed. The next second, they both rushed towards the intricately carved step-out bed.
"Ah!!" Wen Yi couldn't help but scream, and subconsciously reached out to grab the bed curtain hanging in front of her to steady herself.
As a result, I used too much force.
“Click——”
She pulled the entire curtain beam apart!
Oops!
Wen Yi watched the broken wooden beam falling towards her. At the critical moment, she instinctively raised her hand and an invisible force was released instantly, trying to block the falling wooden beam.
But at this moment, Gu Yifeng was afraid of bumping into her, so he turned over and held her tightly in his arms, and then he fell heavily onto the bed!
The force that was supposed to hit the wooden beam was deflected by the unexpected turn...
Boom——
The rosewood bed made a mournful cry, as if asking: Who did I offend?
The entire bed, from head to foot, was split in two by that accidental injury, with splinters of wood flying everywhere, carvings scattering everywhere, and the bed curtains fluttering down like rotten cotton.
The dust has settled.
The two of them sat in a pile of broken wood, with Gu Yifeng at the bottom and Wen Yi at the top, and the surroundings were in a mess.
Wen Yi's voice trembled: "...My rosewood bed."
She took a deep breath: "Gan!!!"
The people who were discussing matters in the main house not far away suddenly fell silent after hearing the loud noise.
"What happened?"
Almost at the same time, several people rushed to Wen Yi's room. The moment they broke into the room, they saw broken wood, broken carved bedposts, and fallen curtain fragments all over the floor...
The two protagonists were disheveled and sat in the middle in an indescribable posture, with a hint of confusion on their faces.
Everyone was stunned.
“…”
“…”
“…”
silence,
Deathly silence.
"Gu!" Wen Chi kicked open the broken door and said through gritted teeth, "My sister has just recovered! Why the hell... do you have to be so violent?"
"Gu Yifeng, you are truly gifted!" Guo Qingyu leaned against the door, crossed his arms and jokingly said, "You can even destroy this bed. I admire you."
He even pretended to be curious and asked Ni Qianfan, "Hey, does your Investigation Bureau have any unique secrets? Can you teach me?"
Ni Qianfan grabbed the stunned Gao Yiyuan and turned around awkwardly: "I remembered that I have something important to do, so I'll take my leave now."
"no!"
Wen Yi came back to her senses instantly and climbed up from the pile of broken wood. "Listen to my explanation! Things are not what you think!"
“…” Gu Yifeng also stood up, his expression calm, but the corners of his eyes twitched slightly.
Gu Yifeng and Wen Yi managed to tidy up their clothes in a pile of broken wood.
"Can you guys stop laughing?" Wen Yi blushed, "It really is a misunderstanding!"
In the evening, Wen Yunzhi invited everyone to come to the main house to discuss matters.
When Wen Yi and the others arrived after making a lot of noise, incense was already burning in the hall and the lights were on.
Wen Yunzhi sat at the top, looked up at his daughter, then looked at Gu Yifeng who was standing beside her with a calm expression. His expression was calm but intimidating without anger.
Footsteps were heard outside the door, and several members of the Wen family came in one after another, sitting around the round table. As soon as they entered the door, they began to talk in a flurry:
"Yunzhi, everyone has heard that Miss Wen Yi went down the mountain and found a good match. Seeing it today, it is indeed extraordinary." An elderly elder looked at Gu Yifeng with a smile.
Another older woman covered her mouth with her hand and chuckled, then said meaningfully: "Your son-in-law is not only handsome, but also... tall and mighty." She deliberately dragged out the word.
"Hahaha." Another middle-aged man said, "Brother Yunzhi, congratulations! The person our Wen Yi looks up to must be extraordinary. This is truly a match made in heaven!"
"Congratulations!"
The hall suddenly became lively, as if this was not a family meeting, but a discussion about Wen Yi's marriage.
Wen Yunzhi's expression remained unchanged. He just smiled lightly and responded humbly, "Thank you for your kindness. However, this matter has not yet been finalized. Let's talk about business first."
"Yunzhi, please don't interfere too much in the children's affairs." The older woman winked and said to Gu Yifeng, "Besides, there's no reason why this kind of thing can't be successful, right, young man?"
Gu Yifeng remained silent and just nodded slightly.
Wen Yi listened to the elders' congratulations, which were full of hidden meanings, and covered her face in despair. She gritted her teeth and whispered to Gu Yifeng, "I know you can speak now, don't play dumb."
Gu Yifeng lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "I think they are right."
“…” No, how come you got into the role of a son-in-law so quickly?
Wen Yunzhi slowly raised his hand, and the noise in the hall stopped abruptly.
He slowly scanned the crowd and said, "Everyone, enough small talk, it's time to get down to business."
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became solemn, and the elders who were joking just now put away their smiles.
"Regarding the nuclear power plant," Wen Yunzhi said in a low but resounding voice, "I've already had several rounds of formal conversations with the Investigation Bureau."
He paused, his gaze falling on Gu Yifeng. "It's true that Wen Yi and the others successfully prevented the collapse of the reactor core last time. But the chain reaction damage caused by the earthquake is far more serious than imagined. The emergency shutdown system has completely failed, the nuclear reaction is still proceeding slowly, and radiation is leaking in an extremely covert way."
Wen Yi's heart trembled, recalling her conversation with Gu Yifeng in front of the test chamber. Her thoughts surged: It seems that even if the closed loop of time and space is broken, certain nodes in history... after all, remain unchanged. This feeling of being unable to escape fate made her feel a little suffocated.
"The government has secretly evacuated all residents of Qingluan Mountain." Wen Yunzhi frowned slightly. "But this 'slow leak' is dangerous and unavoidable. It won't be immediately fatal, but it will gradually pollute the entire watershed, affecting the health of countless people."
"They're still trying to cover up their initial misjudgment of the nuclear power plant's site! It's their fault!" the older woman couldn't help but curse, "They don't repent!"
"The Investigation Bureau is using this as an excuse to put pressure on us," Wen Yunzhi continued. "They're demanding the Wen family's full cooperation in handling any follow-up issues. Otherwise," he paused, a cold look flashing in his eyes, "they'll use the excuse that 'internal strife within the Wen family caused the earthquake' to publicize the truth."
"Even if there is no internal strife, normal earthquake disasters may trigger a crisis." Guo Qingyu frowned.
"But they can prove it," Wen Yunzhi said calmly, "At least, they can guide public opinion and make the public believe it."
"If public opinion gets out of control, the government will have reason to tear up the 'Regulations on the Management of People with Superpowers' and conduct a complete liquidation of the Wen family." Wen Yunzhi looked around the room. "By then, it won't just be a problem for our Wen family, but the entire superpower world will face destruction."
The hall fell into deathly silence.
"But we're not completely without leverage." Wen Yunzhi pulled out a document and gently placed it on the table. "This is the human experiment data that Guo Qingyu and Wen Yi brought back from the lab. It involves secret plans involving several high-ranking officials and research institutions. If it were made public, public opinion might not be unanimous."
