Chapter 1368 - 1371: Step Aside for a Moment

"Of course it’s true! Otherwise, do you think I’d really give up martial arts?" Su Zi gave Ning Aoxue a sly glance, with a mischievous smile on her face, "Now, Aoxue, do you get my meaning?"

Ning Aoxue naturally understood Su Zi’s implication... Su Zi had previously said she didn’t mind her getting close to Lin Feng, and then mentioned the double... cultivation matter. Clearly, this girl was hinting at her to cultivate with Lin Feng in that way!

But, could she really accept such a shameful thing? Ning Aoxue could barely imagine the possible scenarios, her cheeks instantly flushing with a rosy hue.

Then, under Su Zi’s expectant gaze, Ning Aoxue finally raised her head, looked earnestly at Su Zi, and decisively said, "No way! Su Zi, I... can’t do that, I would rather be a weak woman than accept that way..."

Su Zi hadn’t expected Ning Aoxue to refuse so straightforwardly. She was slightly stunned, and then shrugged it off with a chuckle, "Aoxue, we’ve been best friends for years, I know how you think, stop testing me, I’m serious! Actually, I’ve already invited Lin Feng to come to our room tonight..."

"Really no way!" Ning Aoxue, her cheeks flushed, looked at Su Zi and refused again.

At this moment, Ning Aoxue was almost on the verge of collapse internally. She knew Su Zi was always bold and fearless, but she hadn’t expected her to go this far... she, she actually invited Lin Feng to her room tonight? Lin Feng would definitely think it was her invitation, right?! But, she’s innocent!

Under Su Zi’s somewhat surprised gaze, Ning Aoxue sincerely said, "Su Zi, I’m begging you, stop playing around, something will happen! Go stop Lin Feng, tell him not to come upstairs tonight..."

Ning Aoxue felt a bit embarrassed at this point, and then compromised with Su Zi, "How about this, I’ll rest in Yu Jiao’s room tonight, anyway, Tang Rou has gone home, I’ll give up the room to you and Lin Feng... for that!"

"Ah... Aoxue, are you serious?" Su Zi looked a bit disappointed at Ning Aoxue, thinking she had convinced her.

"Of course I’m serious!" Ning Aoxue nodded seriously and said to Su Zi, "I won’t return to the room tonight, do whatever you want!"

Having said that, Ning Aoxue indeed got up, tidied up her clothes scattered around, then directly took her personal belongings, pillow, and change of clothes to Ning Yujiao’s room, which made Su Zi quite frustrated.

...

At this time, Lin Feng, who was sitting in the living room chatting with Ning Yujiao, was unaware of the conversation between Su Zi and Ning Aoxue upstairs. If he had noticed, he might have jumped up with excitement... Ahem, although Ning Aoxue refused so decisively, she had confided her feelings to Su Zi, not denying her feelings for Lin Feng, and more importantly, tonight’s meeting with Su Zi wasn’t just an empty promise!

Unfortunately, Lin Feng was immersed in conversation with Ning Yujiao and naturally didn’t pay attention to what was happening.

"Big Brother Lin Feng, by the way, what exactly is your relationship with my sister... last time I saw how close you were, I thought you’d be my future brother-in-law!" Ning Yujiao suddenly asked with a giggle, instantly snapping Lin Feng back to alertness.

"What future brother-in-law, you’re overthinking..." Lin Feng was taken aback for a moment, then said with a bitter smile to Ning Yujiao, "Your sister has high standards, how could she possibly fancy someone like me, a rough man. Stop talking nonsense, be careful she hears and scolds you!"

"Hmph, so what if she hears, she can’t beat me now, I’m not afraid of her hearing!" Ning Yujiao adorably pouted and, with a smug swing of her little arms, spoke proudly.

"Hmph! Ning Yujiao, what did you say?!"

Just as Lin Feng was about to speak, Ning Aoxue’s frosty voice suddenly came from behind him. He turned around to find that Ning Aoxue, at some point, was already standing on the stairs not far behind, glaring coldly at him and Ning Yujiao.

Ning Yujiao’s face changed slightly when she saw Ning Aoxue’s sudden appearance. Annoyed, she said, "Sis, how could you, eavesdropping on me talking to Big Brother Lin Feng?!"

"You talk badly about me behind my back and blame me for eavesdropping?!" Ning Aoxue gave Ning Yujiao a sidelong glance, her expression very much speechless.

"You are eavesdropping, that’s shameful behavior, and as for what I said, it’s none of your business. Anyway, I have free speech... right, Big Brother Lin Feng?" Ning Yujiao gave Lin Feng a smug look, then said with a laugh.

Ning Aoxue, quite exasperated, gazed at Lin Feng with some resentment. She was curious to see what Lin Feng would say.

Looking at Ning Aoxue, Lin Feng shook his head righteously, then earnestly said to Ning Yujiao, "Yujiao, you’re still young, it’s better to listen to your sister! She’s doing it for your own good!"

Ning Aoxue was slightly surprised; she couldn’t believe it when Lin Feng sided with her. In her impression, Lin Feng had never given her face before. Why was he helping her speak today... could it be Lin Feng misunderstood Su Zi’s invitation as having something to do with her?! With this thought, Ning Aoxue felt a bit anxious; she had to explain it clearly...

"Hmph, Big Brother Lin Feng, I’ve seen through you. You’re clearly biased; she’s so mean, and you still help her!" Ning Yujiao looked at Lin Feng with disappointment, pouting her lips again.

"Yujiao, it’s getting late, you should go take a shower and rest!" Ning Aoxue adopted a big sister’s authority and instructed Ning Yujiao in an undisputable tone.

"What do you mean getting late? It’s not even nine yet... I don’t go to bed that early!" Ning Yujiao glared at Ning Aoxue and retorted.

"You..." Ning Aoxue sighed helplessly, then compromised with Ning Yujiao, "I have a few words to say to Lin Feng, can you excuse us for a moment?"

"Oh, so you wanted to say that, getting rid of me as a third wheel? Want me to excuse myself, of course, I can! But your words are quite rude... Seeing as you’re my sister, I forgive you! Just don’t let it happen again!" Ning Yujiao giggled, then gracefully floated upstairs.

"That brat..." Ning Aoxue muttered helplessly, glaring at Ning Yujiao’s retreating figure.

"What do you want to say to me?" Lin Feng looked at Ning Aoxue, curiously asking.

"Ah?" Ning Aoxue turned to glance at Lin Feng, then slightly lowered her head, speaking softly, "I... I want to tell you, Su Zi inviting you to her room tonight wasn’t at my suggestion... and I won’t be coming back to the room tonight, so you can rest assured and be with Su Zi... that..."

Lin Feng was utterly stupefied.
