Last night, while guarding his mother’s bedside, Lin Feng seemed to have an epiphany about his future goals. He decided to strive to be a positive and optimistic person, with Grandpa Wang Deren as his role model. Later, when he discovered more inexplicable women’s underwear in the wardrobe, Lin Feng was both shocked and eager to learn the cultivation techniques from Grandpa Wang Deren. He also realized that the sudden opening of the storage space of Big Beauty was closely related to the cultivation techniques Grandpa had taught him that night, and it was probably because of practicing that set of techniques that he could suddenly control Big Beauty’s storage space freely. After destroying the evidence that morning, he rushed to Grandpa’s place, intending to ask for more advice, but Wang Xiaoyun intercepted him, saying Grandpa was unwell and to come back at night. Lin Feng didn’t think much of it at the time and insisted on going to school with Wang Xiaoyun. His plan was to strike the iron while it was hot, to further improve his relationship with the beautiful Wang Xiaoyun and enhance their friendship. However, Wang Xiaoyun showed him no good face, saying many sarcastic things to provoke him. Lin Feng, however, had already decided to turn over a new leaf and strive hard in the remaining months, not because he suddenly aspired to go to college, but purely to find peace of mind, not to let his mother down, and to avoid lifelong regret over this matter. Thus, after enduring Wang Xiaoyun’s cold shoulder in the morning, Lin Feng was inspired to create an exaggerated pledge to spur himself on and change. He believed that with the power of the magical Big Beauty within him, as long as he could grasp the direction, just as Grandpa had advised, mastering the primitive desires and instincts within, he would surely turn Big Beauty into his true strength, and his efforts would be rewarded. On that day, he could stand tall…
But less than half a day later, the first bucket of cold water was poured over him. Lin Feng couldn’t understand the reason behind it. However, he soon realized; when Wang Xiaoyun called him “Young Master Lin,” it was a clear hint of her anger at him for going to such a place late at night, truly considering him a dissolute young master. Such matters are hard to explain, and the more one explains, the more off-topic it gets, possibly leading to further misunderstandings by Wang Xiaoyun, so he didn’t bother to explain anymore. The day passed in a flash. Lin Feng, who wanted to reform and be a good kid, suffered a heavy blow, remembering he still had the label of a pervert underwear thief on his head, feeling he had no face to enter the classroom and face the ridicule. He was wandering aimlessly on the street, momentarily unsure of what he was going to do. However, as night began to fall, he somehow found himself in Zhinü Alley. At this time, the small hair salons on both sides of the street were evidently not yet open for business; only a few had their doors open. Several women of mediocre appearance, dressed provocatively and lounging lazily, sat on small stools at their doorways. Clearly aware of their mini skirts, they spread their legs in a manner typically seen among men, exposing their pale flesh unabashedly to the air, their eyes casting suggestive glances at passing single men. Did Zhu Tingting also sit at the door like this every day? Lin Feng subconsciously searched for Zhu Tingting among these women. Lin Feng decided to muster his courage and ask Zhu Tingting face-to-face why she was doing this. If it was truly out of necessity, he had four thousand yuan in his pocket which he could give her, persuade her to go home, and stop doing such things. Without noticing, he had stared a bit too long at one of the women. Her eyes lit up, and she locked eyes with Lin Feng, her mouth exaggeratingly pouting like a dead person’s would, trying to appear cute and innocent. Unfortunately, her movements were too exaggerated, causing the thick makeup on her pale face to flake off like snow. Her smoky eye makeup was particularly striking, as if two black holes had been dug out of a lump of white dough, very creative. “Ah, handsome guy, come in for a head wash! My skills are quite good! And I’m even better at washing the ‘little head’!” Seeing Lin Feng still staring at her, the woman quickly blew a kiss at him and made a move to approach and pull him into her shop for a ‘little head’ wash. Ugh… that woman was too aggressive; Lin Feng felt a chill run down his spine, as if a cold wind was blowing from his tailbone to the back of his head, raising goosebumps all over, which fell to the ground in heaps, shaking the earth. Seizing the moment before the woman could stand up, Lin Feng pressed down the fear in his heart.
A group of burly men, each holding a girl, was standing there. Li Xiangdong was still saying something to them with a pained expression, while the three girls were shaking their heads, their cries faintly audible. “Am I misunderstanding something?” Lin Feng could no longer care about so much and quickly activated his eavesdropping mode, targeting Li Xiangdong! A wave of ripples spread out, and within his consciousness, he saw the scene with Li Xiangdong and the others: “How could the teacher harm you? Just this once, after it’s done, you can go back to school, no need for parents to be involved, and I’ve already talked to someone who agreed to give each of you a thousand yuan for your services. It’s an easy job, don’t worry…” The three girls, crying, were dragged into a car. Something was off. Unfortunately, after just hearing a few sentences, Lin Feng felt as if he had just recovered from a severe illness, his spirit suddenly drained. But upon understanding that the situation wasn’t what he had thought – the three female classmates were not engaging in some second job out of shame, but rather being coerced into doing something against their will by Li Xiangdong – Lin Feng’s heart calmed down. He staggered to the roadside, hailed a taxi, and instructed the driver to follow those two cars. Lin Feng decided to follow and find out what was really happening. These three girls were not particularly outstanding in class but were quite pretty. Li Xiangdong going to such lengths to bring out three girls suggested that whatever he was planning was no simple matter.
P.S. Just a little bit of rambling! In the blink of an eye, I’ve persisted for a whole month, updating daily without fail, feeling like I’m not slow (5 updates/day), which is already my limit as a newbie, any faster and quality would suffer. It’s heartening to see the collection growing daily, though still pitifully small, not even reaching two hundred! Begging for votes every day has probably grown tiresome for everyone, hehehe, I’ll stop nagging from now on. If you like it, please give a few more clicks after reading. Uh, the login process on Zongheng isn’t user-friendly, and many might be too lazy to log in because of this, which is frustrating! As the word count approaches two hundred thousand, it’ll soon be hard to show up on the homepage, feeling anxious… Wuwuwu, your support is what keeps me motivated to update. I used to see authors write like this without feeling much, but now I understand the hardship. Wow, if only I had something as cool as a ‘Big Beauty’…
P.S. again: The innocent me has once again been defeated by sensitive words, ‘fork open’! It’s just ‘fork open’, there are so many uses for that phrase, geez, I really don’t know what people are thinking?
