Chapter 55 The martial world is not just about fighting and killing!



I forgot that this girl likes to sleep naked, but I clearly remember that she was wearing clothes before going to bed. How come she was all gone when I woke up?

Li Changfeng dared to raise three fingers and swear by his own hand that it was absolutely not his doing, nor was it his masterpiece.

This is not surprising at all; many people make this mistake. They wear underwear to bed, but when they wake up, they kick it to the foot of the bed. There are indeed people like this.

Li Changfeng nudged her again, "Qiqi, get up quickly. If your cousin comes downstairs and sees this, I won't be able to explain myself."

However, Shen Qiqi slept like a dead pig, completely still, showing no signs of waking up.

"Slap!" With no other options, Li Changfeng slapped the disc's rear end.

"Ah!" Shen Qiqi's delicate body trembled, and she let out a cry of surprise. She opened her sleepy eyes, rubbing the place where she had been hit. Tears welled up and she was a little stringy.

Why did you hit me?

"It's dawn, don't stay in bed," Li Changfeng urged.

"What's there to be afraid of? It's okay if my cousin sees us. We're just dating normally." Shen Qiqi pouted her pink lips, exuding girlish charm.

Li Changfeng looked tense, his brows slightly furrowed.

"Alright, alright, I'll get up." Seeing Li Changfeng's displeased expression, Shen Qiqi stopped being clingy and started putting on her clothes right in front of him.

Li Changfeng then went out and closed the door behind him.

Finally, someone has managed to subdue Shen Qiqi. It's not easy; it's a rare and unique achievement.

Besides Li Changfeng, who else could it be?!

About five minutes later, Li Changfeng returned to the bedroom, only to be completely dumbfounded – his bed sheets were stained with his period blood…

Can this be washed off?

"Alas! Heaven's sins may be forgiven, but self-inflicted sins are unforgivable." Li Changfeng shook his head and sighed, then hurriedly made the bed.

Whether getting involved with Shen Qiqi is a good thing or a bad thing is unknown. Hopefully, she won't cause any trouble in the next two months.

After washing his face and brushing his teeth, when it was time to eat, Shen Qiqi kept putting food into Li Changfeng's bowl, being extremely attentive, even more affectionate than a newlywed wife.

"Try this bun, Auntie makes it well, it's made with pure beef."

"This lotus root soup is also good. It's sour and spicy, which is very appetizing. I'll serve you half a bowl."

"I'll roll up another small pancake for you."

Shen Qiqi once said that whoever becomes her man must be pampered to the heavens, and she is keeping her word.

This shows that Shen Qiqi was not entirely without merit.

To outsiders, she's a little devil, quirky and mischievous, a master of pranks. But once you gain her approval, she undergoes a complete 180-degree turn, becoming a completely different person.

"Qiqi, you seem like a completely different person." Ye Zihan was puzzled, and at the same time, a fair hand reached out and touched Shen Qiqi's forehead. "Do you have a fever? Or are you out of your mind?"

"Your attitude towards Li Changfeng has changed quite a bit."

"Uh!" Shen Qiqi looked up and stared blankly for two seconds. She then secretly glanced at Li Changfeng and chuckled, "Cousin, Li Changfeng and I have made up. I won't target him anymore."

Ye Zihan pressed further, "What was the reason for the reconciliation?"

"Neither of my two older brothers is a match for Li Changfeng. If we keep nagging, we'll be ungrateful. More friends mean more options, more enemies mean more obstacles."

"Let's turn hostility into friendship and become friends."

Li Changfeng's back was sweating profusely, but thankfully Shen Qiqi didn't speak recklessly.

If he were to reveal that he had bullied her, exaggerating the incident or even claiming that he had slept with her, Ye Zihan would surely be furious, and his job as a bodyguard would be over.

I hired you as my bodyguard, and you seduced my cousin? You even did *that* to her?

Are they even human?!

His conduct is seriously problematic; he's the worst of the worst.

It's said that seducing the sister-in-law is a major taboo in the underworld, and seducing the employer's sister is equally unacceptable and despicable throughout the industry.

"This isn't like you at all," Ye Zihan muttered to herself. "Qiqi has always been the type to go all out as long as she's not killed. When did she learn to assess the situation?"

"I'm not stupid." Shen Qiqi then changed the subject, "Cousin, you're not going to work today, are you?"

"What's the point of not going to work?"

"You didn't receive an invitation from Fengyun Manor?" Shen Qiqi suddenly realized, "That's right, the Ye family isn't an ancient martial arts family, so it's only natural that we didn't receive an invitation."

Li Changfeng, however, was completely confused. "What invitation?"

“The martial arts auction is held once every five years,” Shen Qiqi explained. “Many martial artists will be present to auction off items used by martial artists, such as weapons, elixirs, and secret manuals.”

"Good items are scarce, and the chances of finding a bargain are extremely low."

"But since it was an invitation from the owner of Fengyun Manor, many people will give him face, and our Shen family is also within the scope of the invitation."

“Yesterday, Grandpa transferred 20 million to me and asked me to go there on behalf of the Shen family to make up the numbers. If I like something, I can buy it; if I don’t, I can keep it as pocket money for the year.” Shen Qiqi explained very clearly.

This left Li Changfeng speechless. Twenty million a year's allowance? The world of the rich is so simple, unpretentious, and boring.

"I understand." Li Changfeng was amazed to learn that there were auctioneers who specifically targeted ancient martial arts practitioners. "Who is this Fengyun Manor owner? So many people are willing to give him face."

"The number one expert in Jinghai, and even one of the top in the province, is said to be at least at the third level of the Innate Realm."

The Innate Realm is divided into nine levels. Reaching the Innate Realm is already difficult, and those who reach it are among the best of the best among the vast number of ancient martial artists. Reaching the third level is even rarer.

"Understood." Li Changfeng understood; it was nothing more than flattery.

You can't afford to offend masters like those with innate abilities. If you can give them face, then do so. They're showing you respect by inviting you; if you don't go, you'll offend them.

The martial arts world is not just about fighting and killing; it's about human relationships and social interactions.

You don't necessarily have to spend money to go. You can buy what you want if you want, or not if you don't. It's not mandatory. Just show your support.

In Jinghai, where people have made it into high society, no one is a fool. When a person reaches a certain level, their vision expands to the long term, no longer confined to a narrow perspective.

"Cousin, why don't you take a day off and come with me? It'll be a good way to relax." Shen Qiqi looked at Ye Zihan.

"No, I have work to do," Ye Zihan said while eating.

"What's so great about that crappy class? You have to learn to enjoy life while you can. Life isn't just about working like a dog or a horse; it's also about enjoying yourself and appreciating the scenery along the way."

"Come on, I'm so bored by myself, please." Shen Qiqi tugged at her cousin's hand, acting cute and charming.

Ye Zihan looked at her cousin with doting eyes and softened her heart. "Alright, I'll play with you for a day."

"Yay! Yay! Yay!" Shen Qiqi exclaimed excitedly.

She forcibly pulled Ye Zihan along, not for her cousin's sake, but so that she could spend more time with Li Changfeng.

If my cousin doesn't go, then as her bodyguard, I definitely can't go either; I have to drag her into this mess.

This girl is cunning and shrewd.

After the three finished their meal, they set off, with Shen Qiqi unusually sitting in the passenger seat.
