Chapter 1387: Chapter 1436: Took the Bait

Song Zude put down his teacup, stood up, and gave Su ngxin a deep look before saying, "Farewell!"

Su ngxin didn’t see him out, didn’t even look at Song Zude. It was only after Song Zude and his people left that Su ngxin stood up, reached out to hold Li Yifei’s hand, and with a sweet smile said, "Husband, you worked hard. Sit down and have a cup of tea."

Li Yifei laughed heartily and sat down with peace of mind, enjoying a cup of tea before saying, "That old man fell into the trap."

"Of course, with

personally involved, how could he not fall into the trap?" Su ngxin laughed triumphantly, sitting beside Li Yifei, comfortably leaning back on the sofa. She originally wanted to sit in Li Yifei’s lap but refrained from it to avoid making Li Yifei uncomfortable. Pausing, she added, "If it weren’t for wanting to quickly resolve these two families, I wouldn’t have co up with this idea, risking my dignity."

Li Yifei gently put his arm around Su ngxin’s shoulder, letting her lean against him, and said, "Finishing this quickly is good; seeing you all so exhausted every day makes my heart ache."

After chatting for a while, the two prepared to leave, but Li Yifei said, "No hurry to go back. We’ve finally co out; you can browse around, treat it as a day of rest."

Su ngxin narrowed her eyes, giggled, and lightly punched Li Yifei, saying, "Husband, you’re so smart. Today, let’s go for a walk and return ho in the evening."

Just as Li Yifei said, the old fox Song Zude left, but his people were still hiding. With his suspicious nature, he wouldn’t easily believe Su ngxin’s words, but as long as doubt was planted in his heart, he wasn’t likely to escape the bait.

Sitting in the car, Song Zude started to mumble to himself. Upon returning ho, he discussed the eting with Su ngxin with a few family mbers. They imdiately jumped in with opposition, but it was all unconstructive chatter, doubting Su ngxin without any actual evidence or thods.

The usually shrewd family mbers appeared cowardly when facing Su ngxin and the Li family, like startled birds, unable to provide any useful information, arguing back and forth, worsening Song Zude’s frustration.

Slamming the table, Song Zude angrily said, "Shut up! All this arguing yielded nothing. With this attitude, how can we compete with the Li family?"

His words silenced everyone. Song Zude snorted heavily and said, "Do you think I don’t understand the Li family’s ambitions, that agreeing with them ans dealing with a tiger? But look at you all; in less than a week, how much have we lost? It’s easy to lose money, but how long does it take to earn it back? Even if real estate is profitable, how many buildings would it take? Haven’t you thought about it at all?"

Song Zuqing, who managed several family businesses with the worst losses, spoke with a forced smile, "Brother, calm down. Everyone is just anxious, but they understand. The Li family is pushing us to agree; right now, we face two options: keep fighting or withdraw. The uncertain result of fighting looks grim, as our combined resources are being pushed back step by step by the Li family. However, if we just watch the Li family destroy the Sun family, won’t they co after us next?"

Reflecting on it, Song Zude said, "Su ngxin said... she didn’t promise anything, only that not targeting the Song family was already the greatest rcy..."

A chill ran through his heart as Song Zude realized that during the entire eting, he was led by Su ngxin, almost pressured at every turn.

Song Zuqing’s son sneered, "Su ngxin is so arrogant!"

"Do you have a solution? She’s arrogant, so go deal with her!" another Song family mber said with a sneer.

Seeing another argunt about to start, Song Zude slamd the table again, shouting, "Anyone who continues arguing will be thrown out of the Song family! Is it ti for quarreling during such a crucial matter? Su ngxin is arrogant, but isn’t her confidence given by all of you? Not having a capable person around makes those won so presumptuous."

The younger Song family mbers hung their heads in embarrassed silence, feeling ashad that they couldn’t compete with a few won.

While the Song family analyzed Su ngxin, she went shopping with Li Yifei, sothing she hadn’t done in a while. Ever since losing her son, she hadn’t felt like shopping, but with Li Yifei accompanying her this ti, Su ngxin started to enjoy it.

With a house full of won, Su ngxin didn’t want to miss anyone, carefully selecting ten or more gifts. Li Yifei noticed thoughtfully that Su ngxin even picked a set of silver jewelry for Na Yi, small as it was, it showed her sentint.

Trailing behind, Li Yifei continued in his role as a bodyguard, albeit a bit too attentively, becoming a personal escort. Su ngxin tried on clothes for him to see and occasionally hooked her arm around Li Yifei’s.

Li Yifei raised his eyebrows, and Su ngxin took the cue to approach him, stood on tiptoe, and planted a kiss on Li Yifei’s lips.

A few people were sneaking behind the two, occasionally taking pictures with their cell phones, and sending them one by one to Song Zude. The Song Family mbers were delighted to see these photos.

When the Song Family saw the two people so close in the photos, they burst into laughter: "Haha, I said she was a slut, and sure enough, she’s having an affair with another man. Haha, Li Yifei, I made you arrogant, but your woman is still cheating on you."

Song Zude was also very pleased. With these photos, he finally had so confidence.

If Li Yifei knew his woman was with another man, cheating on him, who knows if Li Yifei would commit murder. That would completely break relations with the Su Family. At that ti... what would the Li Family have to rely on?

These photos put Song Zude in a good mood and made so things clear. At worst, just agree with the Li Family, disregard the Sun Family. Anyways, enough losses have already been suffered. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he could completely threaten Su ngxin to ensure she wouldn’t attack the Song Family.

This cowardly ntality made the Song Family start to deceive themselves, instructing their n to take more intimate photos of the two. Song Zude began issuing orders one after another but didn’t imdiately withdraw investnt and watch from the sidelines, not wanting to break ties with the Sun Family.

When the subordinates captured a photo of Su ngxin standing on tiptoe with both hands around Li Yifei’s waist, raising her face to kiss him, the Song Family was even more excited, thinking it was enough. If this news got out, given Li Yifei’s temperant, it might explode instantly. This photo in the Song Family’s hands was like holding a ti bomb, ready to detonate at any mont.

Li Yifei and Su ngxin, who were shopping, had long been aware of the sneaky people but were deliberately ignoring them. How could the two not have anticipated this, but they simply didn’t care?

After buying enough things, they returned to the car. Li Yifei drove while Su ngxin sat in the front passenger seat. After a busy afternoon, Su ngxin was a bit tired, initially leaning back in her seat, side-facing while squinting her eyes at Li Yifei, occasionally teasing him. As she watched, Su ngxin felt sleepy and soon fell asleep. Li Yifei took his jacket and covered Su ngxin, slowing down the car.

Back ho, as soon as the car stopped, Su ngxin opened her eyes. Looking at Li Yifei right in front of her, she smiled broadly, opened her arms for a hug, and Li Yifei unbuckled his seatbelt and gave Su ngxin a big hug.

Letting go of Li Yifei, Su ngxin said with emotion, "Hmm... this feeling is so good, with my husband by my side, having a comfortable nap and feeling full of strength."

Li Yifei smiled, rubbed Su ngxin’s small face, and said pamperingly, "When all things are done, we’ll be together every day."

Su ngxin nodded continuously, making uh-huh sounds, entirely losing her strong woman deanor and instead resembling a little girl.

The two carried the bags back ho, and Su ngxin distributed everyone’s things, then handed Na Yi’s gift to Li Yifei, asking him to deliver it. Li Yifei took it, nodded, and said, "I’ll go first, talk later."

Li Yifei arrived at Na Yi’s place. Surprisingly, Na Yi was sitting cross-legged in the living room, palms inward, eyes closed. Li Yifei blinked in surprise; this was clearly a cultivation posture. Since when did Na Yi start cultivating?

Hearing the sound, Na Yi opened her eyes and saw it was Li Yifei. Her eyes imdiately filled with joy, and she pushed herself up, running towards Li Yifei.

Li Yifei asked, "Are you... cultivating?"

"It’s what grandma taught , saying it might help you, so I learned." Na Yi’s Chinese language had improved greatly, not only due to a high talent for languages, but she had indeed worked hard in these days.

Li Yifei listened happily, widened his eyes, examining Na Yi up and down, grabbed her hand, and transmitted a wave of True Qi to check her body, yet found no trace of any Qi. Releasing the True Qi, Li Yifei patted his head; although Na Yi could also cultivate, it was only a few days, how could she so quickly achieve mastery?

Understanding this, Li Yifei happily said, "Didn’t expect Elder Yao to accept you as a disciple. Haha, congratulations, Na Yi, Elder Yao is a legendary master!"

Na Yi seriously said, "It’s not that, grandma doesn’t accept disciples. She taught

this simply thinking it might help you, saying that once I’m done cultivating, we could... could dual cultivate..." Saying this, Na Yi lowered her head, evidently aware of the aning of ’dual cultivation,’ her fair cheeks visibly reddened, soon followed by her earlobes turning red as well.

Li Yifei didn’t know how to respond; the Whole-hearted Worm in him would not allow anything to happen with Na Yi. He could only maintain current contact, but it was unfair to Na Yi, so Li Yifei thought for a mont, then gave Na Yi a hug, holding her close, and said softly in her ear, "Na Yi, don’t push yourself too hard. I still hope you remain the joyful Na Yi."
