What are you doing, Mr. President? I'm just an extra!

The main lights in the bedroom were off; only the warm yellow wall lamp by the bedside was lit.

Su Feiyan had changed into a jet-black silk slip dress, her long, straight legs casually wrapped around the silk quilt, dazzlingly white.

In front of her lay a thick, black leather-bound hardcover notebook.

Su Feiyan was holding an exquisite Montblanc fountain pen, writing something on a piece of paper, her expression as focused as if she were reviewing a multi-billion dollar cross-border merger and acquisition deal.

Lu Li steeled himself and walked over, craning his neck to take a look.

At the very top of the notebook, a line of large characters was written neatly—

Audit Report on Lu Li's Behavior During Business Trips to Lin City.

Below, four huge tables were meticulously drawn with a ruler:

[Regarding Gu Qingcheng: Duration of their secret meeting in the dressing room, intimacy in their body language, and time spent alone backstage.]

[Related to Yang Ningbing: The confrontational eye contact, the tone of voice during the meeting at the sanatorium, and the act of locking the meeting room door for three minutes.]

[Regarding Ji Hanyue: Duration of publicly embracing her waist in the lobby, frequency of personally feeding her crayfish late at night, and frequency of private messages regarding the dosage of osmanthus.]

[Regarding Shen Weilan: Progress on the interception at the security exit, the sealed-off transaction of roasted gluten, and the handling of the photo extortion case.]

On the far right of each category, there was a large question mark drawn in scarlet pen, followed by three bold characters in regular script: "[To be explained]".

Lu Li's fake smile shattered instantly.

His pupils trembled violently; his god-level micro-expression control completely overloaded at this moment, his mind filled with a frantic, blaring alarm bell:

[This is...is this something a normal person would do?!]

[A behavioral audit report?! You might as well just apply for a search warrant from the Jianghai City Higher People's Court!]

This isn't just finding a rich girlfriend; it's like the Central Inspection Team has come to conduct a special inspection of my life!

Su Feiyan paused, her pen poised.

She slowly closed half of the notebook, raised her phoenix eyes, and glanced at Lu Li's desperate expression, which was on the verge of tears. A faint hint of mischief flashed in her eyes.

She stretched out her fair hand and slowly patted the empty sheet beside her twice.

"Come here and sit down."

Su Feiyan's voice was soft, yet carried an undeniable sense of pressure: "Now that it's clean, let's use this time to go through it one by one."

Lu Li moved his feet like a walking corpse, trembling as he rubbed half of his buttocks against the edge of the bed.

"Hiyan, I think there's a lot of subjective assumption involved in this..."

"Shut up and listen to me."

Su Feiyan turned to the first page, the nib of her fountain pen precisely pointing to the second line:

"When Gu Qingcheng took off her coat in the dressing room to show you the back clasp, you paused for 2.8 seconds before backing away. Based on micro-expression analysis, your first reaction was hesitation, not refusal. Explain."

"I'm innocent! The lock was broken, and I was terrified!"

Lu Li pointed to the sky and swore an oath.

"Okay, you pass."

Su Feiyan crossed out a line, her fingertip pointing to the end: "After you came out, you paused in the corridor for four seconds before turning around, glancing at her back out of the corner of your eye. How many times?"

"Just one glance!"

Lu Li blurted out, "Only one glance! And it was just out of the corner of my eye!"

Su Feiyan snorted coldly, and the tip of her pen moved down to Yang Ningbing's column:

"At the Shiting Sanatorium in Linhai, Yang Ningbing praised you very much. Her usual style is cold and decisive, and she never makes unnecessary statements to her subordinates, but when she said those four words, her tone dropped half an octave at the end, and she avoided looking at Old Chen."

Su Feiyan raised her eyes and stared directly into Lu Li's eyes: "When you were defusing the bomb on stage, what methods did you use on her that could cause an acting mayor to have such a personal emotional fluctuation in his evaluation of you in front of his former superior?"

Lu Li felt as if her cerebral cortex was being scraped inch by inch by fine needles: "She was terrified! She thought I was going to die in the line of duty!"

"Yeah?"

Su Feiyan twirled the pen in her hand, about to press for more details about Ji Hanyue's embrace in the lobby—

Om-!

The phone, which had been tossed on the bedside table, suddenly burst into a violent buzzing and vibration without warning.

In the quiet bedroom, the sound was as jarring as a landmine that had been suddenly detonated.

Lu Li felt a chill run down his spine. Just as he was about to reach out to grab it, a fair, jade-like wrist beat him to it.

Su Feiyan stretched out her long arm, and her slender fingers had already grabbed the phone in her hand.

Three words were displayed on the lit screen.

【Ji Hanyue】.

The system time at the top of the screen is clearly displayed: 23:03.

It's 11:03 PM.

In the bedroom, the central air conditioning vents emitted a faint but steady hum.

The temperature seemed to drop below freezing instantly, and Lu Li could even clearly hear the thumping sound of his heart pounding as if it were about to shatter his ribs.

Su Feiyan lowered her eyes, looking at the name that kept flashing.

Her thumb hovered above the green answer button, her fingernail unconsciously scraping the edge of the smooth tempered glass screen protector.

stab.

The extremely subtle scraping sound felt like a blunt knife cutting heavily into Lu Li's taut nerves.

Su Feiyan slowly turned her head.

Her long hair slid down her slender shoulders, and the cold blue light of her phone screen was clearly reflected in her phoenix eyes.

She looked at Lu Li, and a stunningly beautiful yet chilling smile slowly appeared on her lips.

With a slight twitch of his thumb, he precisely initiated the call.

Su Feiyan laid her phone flat on the bedding between them, parted her red lips slightly, and softly uttered four words:

"Take the call, put it on speakerphone."

……

The moment the hands-free button was pressed, the breathing coming from the receiver was heavy and labored.

Immediately following was a series of soft, muffled chattering sounds.

The violent convulsions when the body's temperature drops to its limit carry a sense of vulnerability on the verge of collapse.

"Lu Li... Osmanthus is not the point."

Ji Hanyue's voice was broken and intermittent, each syllable accompanied by the pain of inhaling, and the clear and majestic tone fell apart.

After a two-second pause, she uttered four words:

"I am... cold."

"Master! Your hair is completely frozen! Waaaaah... The floor is frozen too!"

Suddenly, Bai Xiaolu's heart-wrenching sobs erupted from the background of the receiver, accompanied by heavy stomping sounds: "Xuetuan is frozen to the windowsill! We can't pull it off! We're going to pull all its fur out!"

Lu Li's mind went blank for a moment, and his nerves instantly became as taut as steel wires.

[Oh no! In the lobby of the neighboring city, she forcibly released her extreme cold internal energy to freeze the firing pin of a submachine gun, saving my life!]

At that time, I only had time to suppress the acute, surface-level cold toxins; the deep, hidden injuries that the dispersing powder had seeped into the meridians were completely ignored!

[Upon returning to the river and relaxing, the cold poison directly backfired on his heart meridian, causing his qi and blood to become chaotic, and his body's temperature regulation system to collapse!]

Lu Li grabbed the phone, his voice urgent and deep: "What's your temperature? Have Bai Xiaolu find a mercury thermometer!"

A rustling sound of someone rummaging through a drawer came from the other end of the receiver.

A few seconds later, Bai Xiaolu screamed in a tearful voice, "Thirty...thirty-two degrees! Meal tickets! The mercury is still falling! Master's body is as hard as a rock!"
