Chapter 31: Chapter 31: The Persistent Plaster

Facing Zheng Xinyi’s mockery, Liu Tingyu didn’t care at all, her eyes brimming with joy as she looked at Ling Feng, "You really suit these clothes, you’re not allowed to refuse, this is the first time I’ve ever given a gift to a guy!"

Ling Feng hesitated for a moment, then nodded. He could only accept Liu Tingyu’s kindness.

With a happy smile, Liu Tingyu handed over her bank card, "Go ahead and swipe it!"

"Tsk, really just keeping a pretty boy, huh!" Zheng Xinyi, seeing that Liu Tingyu didn’t care about her at all, felt her anger surge even more.

A flash of anger crossed Liu Tingyu’s face. She normally didn’t care about Zheng Xinyi’s provocations, but Zheng Xinyi’s repeated insults to Ling Feng were something Liu Tingyu couldn’t forgive.

"Xinyi, how can you talk like that?" Before Liu Tingyu could retort, the middle-aged man who had come with Zheng Xinyi frowned and chided, "He should be your classmate, right? You’re in public, watch what you say!"

"Brother Xiao, it’s just that I can’t stand her arrogant attitude," Zheng Xinyi cooed to the man.

Ever since Brother Xiao entered, his gaze had been captured by Liu Tingyu!

The sunny purity of Liu Tingyu, her elegance and chrysanthemum-like grace, instantly conquered Brother Xiao.

Without comparison, Brother Xiao was quite satisfied with Zheng Xinyi, sexy and beautiful, open and bold! But after seeing Liu Tingyu, he understood the real difference between heaven and earth.

"Hello!" Brother Xiao extended his hand to Liu Tingyu, "Xinyi was a bit harsh just now. I’ll have her apologize to you! You’re all classmates, right? There’s no grudge that can’t be resolved, is there?"

Looking at the smiling, middle-aged chubby man before her, Liu Tingyu couldn’t help but take a step back, "Forget it, as long as Zheng Xinyi doesn’t bother me, I don’t have that much time to deal with her."

Although Xiao Peng concealed his desire quite well, Liu Tingyu instinctively felt a repulsion toward him. After all, birds of a feather flock together.

The fact that Liu Tingyu refused to shake hands with him made a flash of disappointment cross Xiao Peng’s face. But, as someone seasoned in the ways of the world, he knew that this was exactly the time to not show his true colors!

"A university student fresh out of the hatch, and I, Xiao Peng, would find it easy to play with you?" Xiao Peng thought to himself, "Someday, I will make you Xiao Peng’s woman!"

Though Zheng Xinyi and Liu Tingyu failed to notice anything amiss, Ling Feng sharply sensed the flicker of desire that passed over Xiao Peng. He involuntarily frowned.

"Today’s incident was a lapse on my Xinyi’s part," Xiao Peng said indifferently, "Let’s put today’s bill on my tab, miss swipe my card!"

With those words, Xiao Peng pulled out a platinum card and handed it over. The Yansha Platinum Card, only owned by those who spend over a million a year.

Frowning, Liu Tingyu said, "Mr. Xiao, as I said before, let’s just let this go. We don’t want to have too much to do with you! And this is a gift I’m buying for my friend, there’s no need for you to spend!"

Xiao Peng’s brow creased slightly, then he relaxed, "Alright alright, I was wrong. My apologies, Classmate Liu!"

Zheng Xinyi, who seemed to have realized something as well, clung tightly to Xiao Peng’s arm, pressing it deeply into her chest, "Brother Xiao, if they don’t appreciate it, let’s not bother! The thing between her and me isn’t that simple."

Ling Feng and Liu Tingyu exchanged a helpless glance, coming across Zheng Xinyi here was truly not a pleasant incident.

"Since you’ve given me a gift, I also have a gift for you," Ling Feng said softly after Liu Tingyu swiped her card.

"Really? What is it?" Liu Tingyu’s eyes lit up instantly, full of anticipation.

This made Xiao Peng, who had been observing Liu Tingyu from the shadows, feel a slight sinking in his heart!

"Wasn’t it me who broke your phone?" Ling Feng said, finding the matter somewhat embarrassing, "So I thought I’d get you a new one."

"Then I won’t be polite!" Liu Tingyu said, pulling on Ling Feng’s hand, "The fifth floor is the electronic products area. Let’s go together!"

Once the figures of Ling Feng and Liu Tingyu had disappeared, Xiao Peng patted Zheng Xinyi’s ****, "You little witch, weren’t you nagging me the other day to buy you the latest model of the iPhone? Come on, Brother Xiao has time today, I’ll buy you one!"

"Wow, Brother Xiao, you’re so kind!" Zheng Xinyi joyfully planted a big kiss on Xiao Peng’s chubby face, "You really are my darling!"

Upon reaching the fifth floor, Ling Feng glanced around briefly, then he and Ting Yu headed for Leyu World.

Leyu World is a nationwide mobile phone retail chain that features the most comprehensive range of mobile phones, even some rare collectors’ edition phones!

"What kind of phone do you like?" Ling Feng asked.

Liu Tingyu thought for a moment and said, "I used to have a Huaxing mobile phone. Just get me a pink Huaxing G20!"

Huaxing Mobile Phone is a fairly good domestic brand, though it mainly targets the mid-range market. The Huaxing G20’s market price was also less than three thousand yuan.

"The price of this phone is much lower than the clothes you bought for me!" Ling Feng said with a laugh, "Don’t blame me if you’re at a loss!"

"I’ll blame you!" Ting Yu chuckled cheekily, "How else would I eat and drink at your expense without blaming you?"

Ling Feng smiled slightly and shook his head gently, "Being blamed by a beauty like you is a great honor for me! Miss, could we take a look at this phone model?"

As he spoke, Ling Feng pointed to the Huaxing G20 mobile phone.

"What a coincidence, Classmate Liu, we meet again," said a surprised voice behind her as Xiao Peng spoke, "Xinyi was heading out to buy a phone. It seems we really are fated to bump into each other."

A look of helplessness appeared on Liu Tingyu’s face. She just couldn’t understand why Xiao Peng was sticking to her like a burr, impossible to shake off.

"Brother Xiao, this side is all cheap domestic stuff, what are you doing here!" Zheng Xinyi said disdainfully, looking at Liu Tingyu, "Tsk tsk, can’t afford an iPhone anymore? Looks like Liu, the Campus Belle, needs to take on more jobs, so she can earn more money!"

At that moment, Zheng Xinyi’s vision flashed as Ling Feng suddenly stood in front of her. He raised his hand and delivered a loud slap to her face.

Zheng Xinyi’s fair face immediately swelled up, with a clear red palm print visible.

"Waah, Xiao Guo, you have to stand up for me, this little twerp actually dared to hit me!" Zheng Xinyi cried, her cheek swollen and her words unclear.

Ling Feng’s eyes were icy, "Ting Yu didn’t bother arguing with you, but do you take that as an incentive? Zheng Xinyi, have you forgotten what happened the day before yesterday? Do I need to have a good talk with your Mr. Xiao about it?"

Zheng Xinyi’s wailing stopped abruptly, her complexion turned pale, and she looked at Ling Feng with a glimpse of fear in her eyes.

Because the man Zheng Xinyi slept with the day before yesterday wasn’t the current Mr. Xiao! If Ling Feng were to blurt out what happened that day, she absolutely couldn’t bear Xiao Peng’s thunderous rage!

Having been with Xiao Peng for over half a year, Zheng Xinyi knew all too well his methods! It’s said that Xiao Peng also had some connections to the underworld.

"You... don’t—" A look of fear emerged in Zheng Xinyi’s eyes, her lips trembling incessantly.

Xiao Peng’s expression turned dark, "Bro, don’t you think your behavior has crossed the line? Even if Xinyi had some inappropriate remarks, it’s up to me to discipline her. Who the hell are you? Daring to lay a hand on my woman?"
