Urban Evil Suppression: Incorporating the Stone Hard Template

Chapter 42 Jealousy Turns to True Feelings

Ling Feng stared blankly at the fusion card for a long time, unable to come up with any clues.

He grumbled and cursed, then lay back down and stared blankly at the ceiling.

"Knock knock knock..."

A few soft knocks suddenly rang out, interrupting Ling Feng's slightly chaotic thoughts.

He suddenly sat up in bed, his eyes instantly becoming sharp.

"Who could it be so late?"

Ling Feng slowed his pace, walked gently to the door, and asked in a low voice, "Who is it?"

"It's me, open the door!" A familiar female voice came from outside the door; it was Chu Lianxin.

Ling Feng was slightly taken aback. Why was his nominal wife acting so strangely tonight?

Why would she come looking for him in the middle of the night instead of sleeping in her room? Could something have happened?

Fearing something might happen, he reached out and opened the door without thinking.

Outside the door, Chu Lianxin stood with her arms crossed, her pretty face tense.

Her unhappiness was written all over her face; she didn't try to hide it at all.

"What's wrong?" Ling Feng stepped aside to make room for her to come in.

I could faintly smell her usual violet fragrance.

"Why are you pouting in the middle of the night instead of sleeping? Are you trying to confide in me?"

"Is that not allowed?" Chu Lianxin bit her lip lightly, looking exactly like a sulking little wildcat.

Ling Feng smiled slightly and made an inviting gesture:

"Of course not! You're most welcome!"

After Chu Lianxin came in, she closed the door behind her.

"Sit down! Would you like me to get you a glass of water?"

Ling Feng moved a chair over, gesturing for her to sit down, and casually waved the water glass in his hand at her.

Chu Lianxin shook her head and refused: "No, I've already had enough to drink tonight!"

Ling Feng nodded and sat down opposite Chu Lianxin:

"Speak up? Why are you pouting? Who exactly made our Miss Chu angry?"

"you!"

"Me?" Ling Feng was taken aback, a little confused. "When did I make you angry?"

"What exactly is your relationship with Ye Ziyun?"

Chu Lianxin stared intently at him, her jealousy undisguised.

Ling Feng blinked, feeling both amused and exasperated: "This...didn't I already tell you?"

Chu Lianxin pressed her face directly, exclaiming, "The way she's looking at you is weird!"

"..." Ling Feng was a little dumbfounded. So this woman was jealous?

Although their relationship has progressed rapidly during this period,

But he had never seen Chu Lianxin express her feelings to him so directly before.

For a moment, Ling Feng's mind was also somewhat in disarray.

Why aren't you saying anything?

"What do you think I should say right now?"

Chu Lianxin sat back down, her eyes instantly welling up with tears.

"So... what exactly do you consider me to be?"

"That's a question I should be asking you!"

Ling Feng calmed himself down, and his tone became more helpless.

"We came together through an arranged marriage, but the Ling family no longer exists."

I don't know how much of your sincerity towards me is genuine.

If you're only staying together because of an engagement, then I won't let you suffer; I'll set you free!

Upon hearing this, Chu Lianxin felt a pang of sadness, the jealousy she had been hiding just moments before...

She was instantly filled with resentment: "So... this is how you've always seen me?"

Haven't I made myself clear enough in my behavior these past few days?

But what about you? Your attitude towards me has always been distant and ambiguous.

"I've done so much, can't you see any of it? Do you think I only did it because of the engagement?"

Looking at her tearful appearance, Ling Feng felt a tightness in his chest.

As a transmigrator, and a transmigrator with a cheat-like advantage,

Ling Feng never considered himself a part of this world; rather, he saw himself as a passerby!

Because in his heart, he always felt that sooner or later, he might leave.

Therefore, he always maintained a sense of detachment and an invisible barrier towards the people and things in this world!

But the girl's tearful eyes were like a sharp blade.

It unexpectedly pierced through his long-standing self-defense mechanisms.

At that moment, the hard barrier in my heart shattered instantly.

He didn't know when it started, but a figure had secretly crept into his heart.

It even crept into the softest corner of his heart and took root there.

Ling Feng's Adam's apple bobbed, and his right hand involuntarily rose up.

Gently wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes: "I'm sorry...you're right,"

It was indeed my fault; I shouldn't have questioned your sincerity based on an arranged marriage.

"It won't happen again...and I won't let you suffer anymore."

His deep voice was slightly hoarse, but it lacked the indifference and aloofness he usually displayed.

Chu Lianxin looked up at him, her eyes filled with tiny tears that rolled down her fair cheeks.

All the bitterness and grievances I felt just now vanished at this moment.

Unbeknownst to them, the distance between them grew closer and closer, and even their breaths mingled.

It's unclear how much time passed, but Chu Lianxin suddenly pushed Ling Feng away.

Then, clutching his chest and gasping for breath, he exclaimed, "Are you trying to suffocate me?!"

Ling Feng was caught off guard and stumbled as he was pushed. The gentleness on his face had not yet faded, leaving only a look of utter astonishment.

However, upon seeing Chu Lianxin's slightly swollen red lips, he smiled shyly:

"Sorry... I just don't have much experience. We can practice more when we have time, and this won't happen again!"

"Pah! Dream on!" Chu Lianxin blushed and took a while to catch her breath.

"Want more practice? You still haven't honestly confessed about your affair with Ye Ziyun?"

"Why are you mentioning her again?" Ling Feng asked as soon as Chu Lianxin brought up Ye Ziyun.

He immediately waved his hands repeatedly, his arm naturally encircling her slender waist, and said with utmost sincerity:

"You really must believe me that I just met her by chance!"

She came to my stall asking me to tell her fortune and help her, but other than that, I really have absolutely no relationship with her.

"Really?" Chu Lianxin's cheeks puffed up in anger, but the doubt in her eyes didn't lessen much.

A pair of bright, sparkling eyes stared intently at Ling Feng.

Seeing her like this, Ling Feng immediately hugged her even tighter:

"It's absolutely true! If you really don't believe me, I can swear it on the spot!"

Chu Lianxin struggled for a moment, but seeing that she couldn't break free, her heart softened.

"There's no need for oaths, I believe you!"
