Chapter 64: The host brother loves me 11. Study room permission. ...
"Ah? Brother...?" Ye Ling widened his eyes.
"What's wrong?" Li Feng raised his lower eyebrow and said jokingly, "Don't you usually call your brother "brother" easily? I only said it once, and you're so surprised?"
"No...no..." Ye Ling quickly lowered her head, hiding all her guilt and panic.
Li Feng did not press the issue any further. Instead, he half-carried the "weak" Ye Ling back to the guest room and placed her on the bed.
"Since you're not feeling well, go to bed early." He stood by the bed, looking down at him condescendingly. Suddenly, he leaned over and extended his hand, "Don't play with your phone. It's affecting your rest."
He moved very quickly and took out the cell phone from Ye Ling's trouser pocket.
"!!!" Ye Ling was so frightened that she jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on, "Brother! Give me back my phone!"
Li Feng put the hand holding the phone behind his back and raised his other hand to block, letting Ye Ling struggle in vain. "Are you so nervous? Is there something shameful in there? Huh?"
"No! Nothing!" Ye Ling was so anxious that she almost hung on Li Feng's shoulders. "Give it back to me! That's my privacy!"
Li Feng's eyes lit up with amusement. He teased him for a while before mercifully tossing the phone back to him. "It was just a joke. Why's that such a big reaction?"
Ye Ling hurriedly caught the phone and held it tightly in her arms, her heart still beating wildly.
Although being exposed is an inevitable part of the mission, for some reason, rather than feeling guilty, my heart is filled with inexplicable fear and resistance.
He found that he couldn't even imagine that after Li Feng completely exposed the truth, he would throw him out of the villa with an expressionless face, and would never care about him again, give him pajamas, take him to eat delicious food, or send him to school...
When he was feeling uneasy, Li Feng suddenly changed the subject lightly: "By the way...are you scared sleeping alone in this room at night?"
"!" Ye Ling's alarm bells immediately rang. The social death message [Brother, I'm so scared to be home alone at night. I want to hear your voice~] was still lying in his sending history.
He swallowed and forced himself to remain calm: "Brother...why are you asking this all of a sudden?"
"Oh." Li Feng said calmly, "Isn't this room at the end of the corridor? No one has lived there before. Have you heard that the last room number in a hotel is unlucky? Do you know why?"
"Why?" Ye Ling's clear eyes were filled with curiosity about the unknown knowledge of the human world.
Li Feng curled his lips, and with a casual tone, he easily let down his guard, and then said, "Because...it is said that ghosts can't turn corners. If you reach the end of the corridor and there is nowhere to go, you can only..."
His words stopped abruptly, and he glanced meaningfully at the half-open door.
Ye Ling: “…………” He instantly imagined countless scenes in his mind and almost got furious.
Li Feng looked at his little face, which turned pale in an instant, and then he chuckled and ruffled his hair: "I was kidding. Are you so timid?"
He even had the rare patience to tell Ye Ling a few harmless little stories until Ye Ling's tense nerves slowly relaxed.
"I should go to the study." Li Feng prepared to get up from the end of the bed.
"Oh..." Ye Ling immediately put on a well-behaved and considerate look, pulling the quilt up to cover herself, "Then go ahead, brother. Work is more important."
"How do you know it's work?" Li Feng asked immediately.
Ye Ling, the CPU running at high speed, almost bit her tongue: "Ah... I, I guessed! Someone as outstanding, intelligent and self-disciplined as you, brother, would definitely not play games every day! Playing games must be... for work. Right, brother?"
"Oh?" Li Feng said in a long tone, his eyes searching, "I thought you had sneaked into my study and knew I was an e-sports anchor."
Ye Ling's heart tightened instantly.
Seeing his nervous look, Li Feng paused, then suddenly said calmly: "It's not really a job. After all, I don't make money from this."
"...Hmm?" Ye Ling's curiosity was immediately piqued, and he couldn't help but sit up straight.
He remembered that Mo Yu Live was an important platform connecting the top and bottom protagonists, but the novel did not elaborate on why a top student like Li Feng chose to be a live streamer.
"Even though Zou Kai's live streaming company doesn't seem reliable, I'm still optimistic about its prospects." Li Feng explained a few more words, "I'm considered the largest shareholder in his company."
"As for why I chose Moyu Live..." he continued, "It's the largest live streaming platform in China. I come here to kill time and also to gain a deeper understanding of the operating model of this industry."
This was the first time Li Feng said so much, and Ye Ling was stunned. Although he didn't understand many business things, he still tried hard to absorb them.
"Thirdly..." Li Feng paused a little longer this time, his eyes looking far-reaching, "It also has something to do with the Qin family."
Huh? Ye Ling suddenly became even more curious. She used her hands and feet to kick the bed, leaning forward, and almost fell into the arms of Li Feng who was sitting at the end of the bed.
But this time Li Feng did not explain in detail. He just glanced at his phone and said, "It's time to go on air." Then he stood up and walked out.
Li Feng walked out of Ye Ling's room and went straight to the study.
In the corner of my eye, the golden "little tail" did not lie down and sleep obediently, but stuck to me quietly, followed me closely, carefully keeping a safe distance of two steps, and followed me all the way to the study door.
Li Feng pushed open the study door, and Ye Ling braked suddenly at the door, but leaned forward honestly, holding the door frame with both hands, and poked a furry golden head in.
Li Feng sat down on the chair and never looked back, but the strong and cautious gaze at the door was like a feather scratching the back of his neck, making him feel very itchy.
“…”
"Come in."
"Ah?" Ye Ling's hands clinging to the door frame froze, and she didn't react for a moment.
Li Feng turned around and expressionlessly locked eyes with the curious golden-haired creature at the door: "I said, come in. Don't be a door god at the door."
"Really?!" Ye Ling's eyes lit up, and he instantly came alive. Afraid that Li Feng would change his mind, he immediately jumped into the study, his light blond hair flying with excitement, "Thank you, brother!"
Li Feng looked at him, looking so happy as if he had won five million. The corners of his lips curved upwards quickly, then were forced to straighten out.
He raised his hand coldly and pointed to the sofa in the corner: "Sit there and be quiet."
"Yeah, yeah!" Ye Ling nodded repeatedly, and snuggled into the soft sofa. She grabbed a pillow and hugged it tightly. With her surprisingly bright eyes, she looked at Li Feng with admiration as he put on his headphones and entered the game world full of swords and sabers that he could not understand at all.
Li Feng operated the game skillfully, the game interface flickered, and kill notifications kept flashing on the screen. However, it wasn't long before a careful viewer noticed something unusual.
[Is the Blade microphone broken?]
[Why is there no sound all of a sudden? Master?]
【Wasn't it fine just now?】
Li Feng didn't respond, but his calm text instructions popped up in the chat box: [Top lane miss, jungler goes to counter red buff. Support provides vision.]
【??? Why are you suddenly giving commands through text?】
[Is there anyone at Blade's house? Unable to talk?]
[Is it my roommate’s younger brother? ? ]
[No way, a master using a microphone can disturb others? Isn't my roommate's younger brother just a boarder? Why is he so precious?]
Li Feng remained silent, only glancing back quickly at the sofa.
Ye Ling had fallen asleep hugging the pillow without knowing when, his golden head resting on the soft armrest. However, his delicate brows were furrowed for some reason, and the pillow in his arms was deeply wrinkled by him.
After a fierce battle, Li Feng quickly stood up, walked a few steps to the sofa, and leaned over to check.
First, Ye Ling mumbled incoherently: "...Don't come over...Ghost...At the end of the corridor..."
Li Feng: “…”
He was speechless. Could it be that the ghost story he made up on the corridor really scared this cowardly bumpkin?
But then, Ye Ling's dream talk changed its tone, with real fear and even tears: "...Jiang Lian! You are crazy! Let me go!"
Li Feng's brows instantly furrowed.
Jiang Lian?
This name… felt strangely familiar, yet I couldn't recall where I'd heard it before. But the fear on Ye Ling's face was blindingly real.
As if possessed by a ghost, he raised his hand and gently touched Ye Ling's slightly cold cheek, trying to smooth out her furrowed brow.
Unexpectedly, this subtle touch made the sleeping person shudder suddenly, as if burned. He shrank unconsciously into the sofa, whimpering in resistance.
This seemingly instinctive avoidance instantly ignited the inexplicable anger in Li Feng's heart, and an inexplicable violent impulse surged into his heart.
He unconsciously increased his strength, pinching Ye Ling's cheek, forcing him to turn his head, and said in a suppressed voice: "I didn't..."
“I didn’t” what?
He suddenly stopped. He had never done anything to Ye Ling, let alone who Jiang Lian was. Where did the word "again" come from?
Confusion, a strange and surging possessive desire, and dark thoughts that were about to emerge were madly intertwined and continued to ferment in Ye Ling's intermittent dream talk.
"Hmm..." Ye Ling seemed to have fallen into another dream. His brows relaxed a little, but his body was still tense. He hugged the pillow and sighed softly, "Master... is gone..."
"……What?"
Li Feng's heart felt like it was being violently gripped. He cupped Ye Ling's cheek, gently wiping the sweat from his temples with his thumb. He asked repeatedly, "Ye Ling, what are you talking about? Who is the master? And who is that Jiang Lian?"
But the person in the dream couldn't answer. After a few minutes, a new round of vague dream talk finally flowed from the two slightly parted lips, with a dependent nasal tone: "Shao Ye..."
Li Feng: "..." I still haven't figured out what happened to Jiang Lian just now, and now here comes Shao Ye? ?
But this time, Ye Ling's reaction was a little different.
He unconsciously rubbed his cheek against Li Feng's calloused palm, as if he had found a familiar safe haven. Even the tense lines in his shoulders relaxed, and he even vaguely commented, "Caramel pudding... delicious."
"It's delicious." Li Feng snorted coldly, "Because I made it for you."
At this moment, the arrogant roar of purple-haired anchor Lu Ren could be faintly heard from the headphones on the table: "Hahaha, B! Where have you been hiding? Are you scared? Why aren't you ready? Come on! This round, Daddy will teach you a lesson!"
Li Feng's brows furrowed instantly. He gently let go of Ye Ling, turned back to the computer, and put on his headphones.
【Blade is ready】
Ten seconds later, Lu Ren’s miserable howl echoed throughout the live broadcast room: “What the hell?! Wait! Big brother, I was wrong… Aaaaah!”
Li Feng had a blank expression on his face, and his movements were brutal and precise. He poured out all his confusion and frustration into this massacre that was carried out without any suspense.
