By the time Chu Feng arrived home, Duo Duo already fell asleep. Yun Muqing, however, was very worried. She walked toward Chu Feng nervously when he came back. “Chu Feng, what’s your relationship with Chairman Ma of the Chamber of Commerce of the Four Seas?”
“We’re just friends. What’s the matter?” Chu Feng smiled.
“Just friends? I think you guys are more than friends.”
Yun Muqing’s beautiful face filled with puzzlement. With a puzzled look in her eyes, she pointed at several large and small bags full of jewelry, branded perfumes and handbags on the couch. “After the two female secretaries of Ma Sanyuan drove me home, they took these presents out of the car and gave them to me. Look, this is a high grade Nephrite Jade from Khotan. This three to four carats of diamond necklace must cost over a hundred thousand. And these perfumes and handbags, all of them are limited editions which are only available to the brands’ top VIP customers—you can’t even buy these even if you have the money.”
These presents are worth about five to six million. The luxury level of these presents was beyond her imagination—even when compared to when she was staying in the Yun Family years ago.
Yun Muqing felt as if she was dreaming. She bit her lips nervously and her face was very worried. “Chu Feng, you didn’t work with Ma Sanyuan on something illegal or murder someone on his account, did you? Otherwise, why would he simply give me these expensive gifts? Don’t scare me like that, Chu Feng!”
Chu Feng smiled helplessly. He thought Ma Sanyuan was a sensible man who always knew what to do at the right time. Chu Feng comforted Yun Muqing, “Don’t worry, I’m not an idiot. I just promised him I’ll help him in a boxing match. Calm down. From now on, you can just keep whatever gifts he gives and use them at ease. You deserve them.” As Chu Feng said those words calmly, he picked up a necklace, stood behind the worried Yun Muqing and proceeded to put on the necklace for her.
Chu Feng’s fingers touched Yun Muqing’s fair neck; her elongated collar bone looked elegant like a white swan. Behind her, Chu Feng’s masculine chest shielded her and brought a sense of security to her. Chu Feng’s unique scent of masculinity made Yun Muqing blush. Her eyes flickered nervously as she breathed rapidly.
“Okay, you look very beautiful with the necklace,” Chu Feng praised as he looked attentively—like he was admiring an art piece—at the lady with extraordinary beauty before him.
Yun Muqing blushed, delighted by Chu Feng’s praise. Indeed, every woman liked dressing up and being pretty.
“Well, alright then. I’ll just accept these, but only for this time. I’m not going to accept them again next time. Chu Feng, you should stay away from Ma Sanyuan. It’s better if we stop mingling with those kinds of people,” Yun Muqing warned worriedly. Meanwhile, Chu Feng simply nodded with a smile.
Pleased with Chu Feng’s reaction, Yun Muqing tidied up and kept the presents. She said cheerfully, “Chu Feng, my younger sister will come back in a few days. Let’s prepare more dishes to welcome her! She will be envious of me if she sees all these beautiful clothes, jewelry and handbags.”
“Your younger sister?” Chu Feng was puzzled.
“Yes. My third eldest uncle’s daughter, Yun Muyu.” Yun Muqing’s eyes flickered with gratitude as she continued, “Since my father’s accident, my uncle and his family were the only ones who were nice to us. Muyu treated me like her own sister. When I was expelled from the Yun Family after I had Duo Duo, it was Muyu who secretly helped and supported me, all the while opposing the family’s order, so that Duo Duo and I could survive and did not die of starvation. But last year, Muyu went studying abroad. She will come back this year to continue her study in Jiangling College.”
Touched by the kindness of Yun Muyu and her family, Chu Feng said, “Alright, I’ll treat her well to repay her kindness.”
Chu Feng was the kind of man who would take revenge on people who hurt him and his family, while repaying the kindness of those who were nice to him. He would seek vengeance on the Yun Family who had humiliated and hurt his wife and daughter. At the same time, he would remember and repay the kindness of Yun Muyu and her family.
Yun Muqing pursed her lips and said, “Repay her kindness, huh? Forget about it. I’m just going to cross my fingers and hope that you won’t bully us, the two timid ladies in the house. Hey, now that you mention it, my younger sister is rather obsessed with the martial arts. She holds a black belt in Taekwondo. If you dare to bully me in future, well, we’ll see about that!” Yun Muqing said proudly while waving her little fists in the air.
