Chapter 622 The Plan Fails Again
At five o'clock in the afternoon, as darkness fell, Qin Feng finally brought Zhou Qiao back to the Shadow Gate.
Previously, Qin Leilei had been gazing out the window, eagerly anticipating what was to come.
Under his arrangement, the flowers withered, the movie was changed, and as long as Qin Feng didn't go back to the Qin family with him, he could forget about living a peaceful life.
Just thinking about Qin Feng's embarrassing moment made him unable to stop himself from smiling.
Upon seeing the two return, he immediately put away his crossed legs on the rocking chair, stood up, and went outside to greet them.
However, the scene before him was completely unexpected.
First, he immediately noticed the cluster of vibrant roses that Zhou Qiao was holding in her arms—wasn't that the very same bouquet he had stolen?
How come it looks brand new, without any problems at all?
Could it be that Qin Feng bought a new one?
Did he buy them later... or did he discover the problem with the flowers before giving them away?
However, before Qin Leilei could think it through, he immediately heard Zhou Qiao making a phone call.
"Blue whales are truly amazing. Those people who used to secretly hunt them were absolutely wicked. They are so gentle and adorable. Thankfully, they are now strictly managed."
"Also, we saw penguins today, which was so much fun! They looked so cute when they walked, hahaha..."
"Alright, Sister Wange, I'm home now. I'll talk to you later. If you have time, you can take your three little ones to see it. It's really interesting."
After saying something else on the other end of the phone, Zhou Qiao finally hung up.
Qin Leilei thought she had misheard the excited and satisfied laughter.
What blue whale? What penguin? What endangered animal?
Could it be that the cinema manager played the wrong film, showing an ocean documentary instead?
Just as he was wondering, Zhou Qiao noticed him and spoke first: "Oh, didn't Young Master Qin go to the movies with you?"
Qin Leilei feigned composure and said with a slight smile, "I..."
Before he could finish speaking, Qin Feng interrupted him, saying, "He's not a member of the Shadow Sect, so he has no say in the matter."
Zhou Qiao thought to herself, "I'm not a member of the film industry either," but she only dared to think it and didn't dare to say it out loud to contradict Qin Feng. She hadn't been able to see the movie today, and she didn't know when she would be able to get her ID card back.
It's the Lunar New Year, and the places that issue replacement documents are closed, so she'll have to stay here for a while. She dares not offend the big devil.
Therefore, she simply smiled and pretended to be obedient, saying, "The aquarium was great today, and the flowers were beautiful too. Thank you, Mr. Qin. You two chat first, I'll go back to my room now."
Zhou Qiao left after she finished speaking.
After Zhou Qiao left, Qin Feng looked at Qin Leilei with a gloomy gaze.
Qin Leilei knew from Zhou Qiao's words that his plan had been exposed, but he was not afraid of Qin Feng and instead glared back at him.
Just as the two were about to draw their swords, Hou Kai and several others walked in.
Upon seeing Qin Feng, Hou Kai immediately poured out his grievances: "Boss, you guys are back too. Sigh, thank goodness you went to the aquarium instead of the movie, otherwise you'd probably be spitting blood!"
Qin Feng frowned: "What?"
Hou Kai waved his hand: "Don't even mention it. I don't know what went wrong with that theater. We booked a whole theater for the Valentine's Day special, 'First Love,' but they changed it to 'The Breakup Guru.' I'm speechless."
"Yeah, we went to find the person in charge, and he actually said that this was the film we bought," Old Qi complained.
"Oh, the theater changed the movie?" Ayan asked, sounding belatedly aware.
Upon hearing this, the group turned and stared at Ayan in horror, exclaiming in unison, "You don't know?"
Ayan awkwardly scratched the back of his head.
"Ah Yan, I have to say you're smart. This is brand new, never been used before," Han Xu retorted precisely.
The more Qin Feng listened, the more outrageous it became. He glanced meaningfully at Qin Leilei not far away.
His expression was defiant.
Qin Leilei's face was ashen, like charcoal.
He finally understood; Qin Feng had known all along what he had done.
He felt he was losing interest in staying any longer, so he raised his lips and said flippantly, "Qin Feng, this is just the beginning, let's take it slow."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Seeing that Qin Leilei had left, the remaining teenagers quickly gathered around Qin Feng.
"Boss, what happened at the movie theater today, it really was Qin Beast... oh, no, your brother's doing?" Hou Kai reacted quickly and had already guessed it.
Qin Feng hummed in agreement: "Don't worry about it. Just keep being more vigilant from now on."
Old Qi didn't understand: "Boss, why don't you go home with him? This fuss isn't going to work. It's just delaying your chance to find a partner."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hou Kai immediately retorted.
Old Qi remained silent, his head bowed.
Han Xu chimed in from the side, "Boss, should I throw him out?"
Qin Feng: "...Not for now."
Han Xu nodded slightly and remained silent.
Not wanting his family affairs to upset his subordinates, Qin Feng waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about it. Order some good dishes at Cuihonglou today, and I'll reimburse you."
"Great!!"
Upon hearing that there was delicious food, the boys forgot about their "brother criticism meeting" and ran out in a chaotic frenzy.
Qin Feng took out his phone and glanced at the photos he had taken that day.
He has never saved so many photos in his album at once since he got a mobile phone.
Every single one of them features Zhou Qiao.
He watched her gaze of wonder as she looked at the blue whale, watched her bulging lips as she ate the sausage, watched her embrace the seal, her smile as radiant as the warm sun…
The more I looked at him, the softer his face became.
He has never liked anyone in his entire life.
Zhou Qiao was the first person who could make him emotionally fluctuate.
As he looked through the photos, he gradually made a bold decision.
He didn't want to drag it out any longer; he wanted to confess his feelings to her on New Year's Eve.
