"One hundred and thirty million, not a penny less. Once the money is in your account within two hours, we'll be even. From now on, she's yours." Yan Nan's voice was as cold as a butcher's knife.

Cheng Fei said casually, "Just a moment."

The system interface appeared before the boy's eyes.

[Credit Card Reversal: It is said that hackers in the Corridor Era invented a tool targeting the financial system to avoid huge default fees; it automatically destroys itself after use.]

Consume 100,000 points to redeem and use.

A pure black credit card appeared in the inventory and immediately burst into flames.

As the flames consumed items worth 100,000 points, an invisible torrent of data spread from Academy City like a nuclear explosion's shockwave, sweeping across the financial network that humanity had painstakingly woven using metals and silicon crystals, and utilizing electrons and photons.

It automatically organizes, analyzes, compiles, bypasses multiple gateways and firewalls, dismantles security protocols, sends false data, tampers with verification information, and cleans up operational traces.

If someone could monitor the entire banking system, they would discover that the network was severely congested at any given second.

Billions of accounts automatically initiated transfers of less than one yuan without anyone knowing. The records were erased, and all the money was accumulated layer by layer, eventually being transferred in large sums to a single account.

A moment later, the black credit card disappeared from the boy's inventory as if it had never existed; he had simply had 100,000 points deducted out of thin air.

"Let me see," Cheng Fei said into the phone.

There was a moment of deathly silence on the other end, then a very soft voice came through, "...The money has arrived."

"So Nagasaki Asuna is mine now?"

"It's yours now, thank you for your patronage." Yan Nan's relieved voice came through the speakerphone. "Asuna, can you hear me?"

"I...I can hear you..." the girl said hurriedly, looking around blankly.

"Your artist management contract with Hummingbird Media has been officially terminated. You are now a free agent. I wish you happiness and goodbye."

The phone call ended as soon as he finished speaking.

Asuna Nagasaki blinked as she stared at the screen, then looked up at the nonchalant boy in front of her.

New tears silently streamed down the girl's reddened eyes.

"Why are you still crying? What a crybaby you are." The boy leaned closer to observe her, his concern evident.

“Cheng Fei…” The girl stared at him blankly.

"what?"

"Was I asleep on the bus, or was I dreaming...?" The girl numbly and futilely wiped away her tears.

"He really is an idiot." The boy shook his head and sighed.

"If this isn't a dream, how could something so joyful happen? I'm so happy that I keep crying. It's so strange, so very strange..." The more the girl wiped away her tears, the more she cried, like a broken doll.

"Happy? Get this straight, Nana. From now on, your life will be under my control. You won't have any freedom anymore. What do you think this is something to be happy about..."

Before Cheng Fei could finish speaking, Nagasaki Asuna shook her head violently, tears falling like broken pearls in the air. In the blink of an eye, the girl's light and delicate body rushed into his arms, like a bird returning to its nest.

……

269. Cheng Fei loves both.

The sudden impact of Nagasaki Asuna's attack caught Cheng Fei off guard, causing him to exhale and stumble back several steps.

The girl buried her face in the boy's chest, so that he could only see her soft, shoulder-length brown hair.

"Cheng Fei..."

"Cheng Fei, student...!"

"Cheng Fei!!!"

The girl first trembled silently, sniffling hard, then called the boy's name repeatedly with a sob, and then could no longer suppress her sobs, weeping uncontrollably in his arms, and finally bursting into uncontrollable wailing.

"Why……?"

"Why, Cheng Fei...?"

"Why?!"

The girl hugged the boy tightly and cried out, so tightly that he felt a little short of breath.

The sudden, exaggerated reaction drew strange looks from passersby who were already glancing in their direction.

Feeling the warmth of the delicate body in his arms, Cheng Fei sighed, turned around and hugged her tightly, making every part of her body press against him. He moved one hand to the back of her head, ran his fingers through her smooth, coffee-colored hair, and gently stroked her head.

"Nana, what's wrong?" The boy lowered his head, gently touched the top of her head, and smelled a faint, sweet fragrance.

"Why... why do you keep rejecting me and then giving me hope?" Nagasaki Asuna looked up, the tearful girl murmuring softly, "After this time... what will you do to me?"

"Idiot, still don't understand?" The boy cupped her tear-streaked, pitiful face and gently stroked her silky soft skin.

"I'm so stupid, I can't understand what Cheng Fei is thinking at all..." Nagasaki Asuna stared blankly as the boy stroked her face.

"Nagasaki Asuna, listen carefully." The boy looked her in the eye and said softly, "From now on, you're no longer my friend..."

The girl's pupils contracted sharply.

"You are mine." The boy cupped her face tightly with his fingers, as if asserting ownership over his possession. "Do you understand? Nagasaki Asuna, I love you."

The girl gasped for breath, "Cheng Fei... what did you say?"

"I said I love you, Nagasaki Asuna, you're mine now."

"Isn't Cheng Fei's love... Shen Xi?" The girl's eyes were completely filled with the boy's figure.

“I love you both. I love Shen Xi and Nagasaki Asuna. I want both of you. Do you understand?” The boy looked down at her face in an unquestionable manner.

The girl's eyes trembled even more violently. She swallowed hard and clutched her chest as if something was about to jump out.

"Regret it? It's too late now if you don't want to. Do you know how much I paid for you? Originally, it wasn't necessary at all according to my plan, but because I was afraid that you, an idiot, would die out there, I had no choice but to forcibly buy you. You think you only owe me 130 million? Simple money means nothing to me now. You will spend your whole life repaying what you owe me..." The boy, like a cunning and calculating businessman, seized the opportunity to brainwash the innocent and naive girl.

“I do!” Nagasaki Asuna’s hurried words interrupted him.

"Cheng Fei... I'm willing!"

"As long as Cheng Fei loves me... I will belong to Cheng Fei for the rest of my life!"

Nagasaki Asuna suddenly stood on tiptoe, her pink lips slightly parted, and offered her gentle and soothing face.

The boy didn't refuse; he grabbed her hair almost violently, treating her completely as his possession, enjoying the sweet, cloying scent of early spring blossoms...

Passengers passed by in waves, their gazes lingering briefly on the young couple making love in public before moving on.

Wow, kissing in public...

"The girls are beautiful and the boys are handsome, this damn youth is so enviable..."

"Kissing in the middle of the road, as expected of a student from Academy City, you're shameless..."

Amidst these whispers, the boy and girl slowly parted ways.

"There are too many people here, let's go," the boy said, looking around.

The girl, her eyes still blurry, nodded obediently, panting softly.

So the boy pulled her suitcase while grabbing her obedient, soft little hand, and quickly left through the waiting hall exit.

Moving to a quiet spot outside the station, Cheng Fei put his arm around Nagasaki Asuna's petite shoulder.

"Cheng Fei, where are we going now?" The girl looked up and blinked her rabbit-like red eyes.

"Put your luggage home first. It's so heavy. Did you pack explosives?" The boy weighed it in his hand, suspecting that her suitcase was solid.

“That house is rented by the company; Nana has no home anymore.” The girl stared at the boy cautiously.

"Then just leave her at my place, okay? Stop acting all pitiful." The boy pinched her cheek in annoyance; the soft skin felt wonderful.

"I'm not pretending, Nana is really pitiful." The girl hugged the boy and rubbed her head against him.

"Vixen."

"Cheng Fei is going to scold me again, I'm going to cry."

"Cry for me to see." The boy pinched her chin, as if admiring a newly acquired toy.

Asuna Nagasaki looked up at Cheng Fei, her brows furrowed slightly, and tears welled up in her moist eyes.

"Hey, you're really crying? Don't cry." The boy was stunned, then vigorously rubbed her head.

"Cheng Fei is so mean! He tells me to cry but forbids me from crying. I'm really going to cry..." The girl's eyes reddened, and her voice trembled with tears.

"Stop, I was just kidding. Don't cry, don't cry. I told you to stop crying, but you just can't stop, huh? Tsk."

Cheng Fei tried to stop her, but tears welled up in Nagasaki Asuna's eyes and fell like pearls from a broken string. The boy was frustrated for a second, then chose to cup her adorable, sweet face and lean in close.

Asuna Nagasaki whimpered softly, trying her best to stand on tiptoe to meet him.

After a long while, the boy finally released the girl, who was struggling to breathe and was so weak she could barely stand.

"Are you still going to cry?" The boy pointed at her face, like a vicious slave owner.

The girl shook her head like a rattle-drum, quickly wiping away the tears on her face, covering her face and gently biting her lip, her lips unable to stop curving upwards.

“I’m warning you, Nagasaki Asuna.” The boy put his arm around her and walked forward. “From now on, you will only have one time to cry.”

"When?" the girl asked, peering at the boy through her fingers.

"When I was riding on top of you," the boy said casually, looking ahead.

Asuna Nagasaki paused, her fingers clenched together, and she covered her face, burying her head and remaining silent.

"What's wrong now? Didn't you say that yourself?" Cheng Fei asked, puzzled.

"Being suddenly told something like that by Cheng Fei is a little..." Nagasaki Asuna covered her face tightly and didn't look up.

"There's definitely something wrong with your head."

The boy pursed his lips and decided to ignore her.

……

270. The boy was merely declaring to her...

The two took a taxi to Guang'an Street and returned to Cheng Fei's rented room.

The boy, who had rushed upstairs, put down his suitcase and exhaled, "Your bomb is deadly."

"I've sent a lot of things to Tokyo." Nagasaki Asuna, with her hands behind her back, looked at the boy and blinked.

"Have the courier company return it."

"Okay~" the girl smiled.

"Go wash your face first, you little crybaby." Cheng Fei looked at her disheveled face.

"I'm not a crybaby," the girl retorted softly, then ran into the bathroom.

When Nagasaki Asuna came out, the boy stood by the window, gazing absently into the distance.

"What is Cheng Fei thinking about?" She buried her face in the boy's chest, her eyes slightly closed.

"I'm thinking about what to take you for dinner." The boy pondered as he sat down in the chair.

"Nana can eat anything."

Asuna Nagasaki originally wanted to sit in the boy's lap, but when she noticed the subtle force with which he was pulling her down by her arm, she blinked, bit her lip, and looked at the boy with innocent eyes while obediently squatting down slowly. Finally, her rounded knees, covered by black over-the-knee socks, touched the ground silently.

The boy placed his hand on her cheek and near her ear.

Nagasaki Asuna nuzzled against the boy's palm, tilted her head, and winked, "Why does Cheng Fei always stare at Nana's face?"

"Of course it's because your face is cute."

"Oh, really... Cheng Fei has never praised me before." The girl lowered her head, her cheeks flushing.

"Hmm, she has a very clean and pure temperament, and a sweet one at that, especially when she smiles, it's very healing." The young man admired her features.

"I'm so happy to be praised by Cheng Fei." The girl clutched her chest tightly.
