Chapter 74: Brother, Are You Suffering?
After the ship left Luofeng City, Lin Fengmian was lost in thought when Xia Yunxi tugged at his sleeve.
He asked confusedly, “What’s wrong?”
Xia Yunxi looked like she wanted to dig a hole and hide and whispered, “Brother, look behind you?”
Lin Fengmian turned around in surprise to see Wen Qinlin, Zhou Xiaoping, and the entire ship’s passengers looking at him with strange expressions.
Seeing him turn around, one man spat contemptuously, “Heartless man, coward!”
Lin Fengmian knew that his attitude had been misunderstood, and he was so embarrassed that he could dig a hole with his toes. He declared, “It’s all her nonsense, don’t believe it!”
“Tch, dare to do but not admit, shameless!” a female cultivator said contemptuously.
Seeing the crowd of onlookers, Wen Qinlin quickly walked over and whispered, “Brother Lin, come with me!”
Seeing the unfriendly glances of the crowd, Lin Fengmian decided to just ignore them, pulling Xia Yunxi along with him and leaving without bothering to explain.
You can despise me if you want, but can you beat me?
The four of them stopped in an open space at the edge of the ship, where they were still visible but not as conspicuous.
After they stopped, Zhou Xiaoping continued to stare at Xia Yunxi curiously, making her feel uncomfortable.
Lin Fengmian smiled at Wen Qinlin and Zhou Xiaoping, “Brother Wen, Miss Zhou, this is my junior sister, Xia Yunxi.”
He introduced Wen Qinlin and Zhou Xiaoping, “These two friends I met on the way are from Heavenly Strategy Mansion, Wen Qinlin and Zhou Xiaoping. Thanks to them, we were able to escape.”
Xia Yunxi stood up with a bit of restraint and bowed, “Greetings to the two friends, thank you for your help.”
Wen Qinlin and Zhou Xiaoping quickly returned the bow, “Miss Xia, you’re too polite. It was just a small favor, we didn’t do much.”
Lin Fengmian said seriously, “Rest assured, my junior sister has been deceived by the Joyful Union Sect since childhood and has never harmed anyone. I can guarantee that with my life!”
Wen Qinlin smiled, “Of course we trust Brother Lin. You two should sit down first, otherwise I’ll feel embarrassed.”
“Right, Miss Xia doesn’t look like a bad person at all. I believe it!”
Zhou Xiaoping’s values followed her appearance, and she was immediately captivated by Xia Yunxi’s pure appearance.
How could Miss Xia look so good? Even though they were both women, Xia Yunxi looked like someone she could only dream of.
Seeing that people were still looking over occasionally, Wen Qinlin smiled, “Brother Lin, you two haven’t seen each other for a long time, and there must be a lot to talk about.”
“I’ll go back with my sister first. We’re in rooms 2B3 and 2B8. If you need anything, come find me.”
Lin Fengmian nodded and then said goodbye to the two of them, pulling Xia Yunxi to find their rooms, 10D and 15D.
He pulled Xia Yunxi into the cabin and found only a small, broken bed that could barely fit one person, with a shelf above it for storage.
The room had no windows, only a few ventilation holes, and was so narrow that there was barely enough room to walk, all in the name of preventing mortals from falling.
Lin Fengmian was speechless, but the only consolation was that it was a private room with a door that could be locked.
He pulled Xia Yunxi into the cabin and sat on the bed with her, as there was nowhere else to sit.
He frowned, “Yunxi, why did you come so late?”
Feeling a bit guilty, Xia Yunxi finally lowered her head and whispered, “The Joyful Union Sect’s Jade Slip can only be operated by the Joyful Union Sect’s technique…”
Lin Fengmian immediately understood, both surprised and angry, and said angrily, “You were planning to sacrifice yourself again, weren’t you?”
Xia Yunxi didn’t speak this time, just quietly said, “Brother, I didn’t want to. But without doing so, I did not have the confidence to lead them away for you.”
Lin Fengmian was frustrated, but he couldn’t bear to blame her since she was doing it for his sake.
He gently hugged her, “I don’t blame you, but you can’t do this next time! I won’t leave even if you don’t come!”
Thinking about how Lin Fengmian was still outside when she arrived, Xia Yunxi couldn’t help but feel happy as she nodded, “I know.”
“Then how did you finally shake them off?” Lin Fengmian asked with a frown.
“It was Sister Chen. She activated the signal at the dock and led Senior Sister Liu and the others away, giving me the chance to come over,” Xia Yunxi explained.
“Sister Chen?” Lin Fengmian asked in surprise.
“Yes, she took my communication jade and let me come to you, saying she didn’t want to owe you any favors,” Xia Yunxi said, also a bit surprised.
Lin Fengmian’s mood was complex, and he finally smiled bitterly, “All right, I didn’t expect her to help me. I hope she’s okay.”
Xia Yunxi nodded, and the two of them sat quietly in the room, hugging each other, only hearing each other’s heartbeats.
After a while, Lin Fengmian began to feel restless and uneasy.
Xia Yunxi felt Lin Fengmian’s change and her face slowly turned red, but she didn’t react.
Lin Fengmian looked at the bed that could only hold one person, pushed Xia Yunxi onto the bed, and kissed her.
Xia Yunxi was a bit confused, but she welcomed Lin Fengmian and obviously did not resist.
Just as Lin Fengmian was about to take the next step, a sound suddenly came from the next room and the door slammed, scaring Lin Fengmian.
He turned around to see that his door was still intact, but the next room suddenly emitted a creaking sound and a loud voice: “Damn, this tiny place, is this fit for humans?”
The people outside also gradually returned, making the place noisy, and the once quiet area suddenly became very noisy.
Lin Fengmian was stunned; the sound insulation of this broken wood was terrible.
Gradually, the noise around them grew louder, as if a group of people were sitting right next to them, which was indeed the case.
This left Lin Fengmian completely speechless.
He even suspected that if he accidentally made a big move, the wooden partition would collapse.
However, with such a beauty underneath him, he really couldn’t sit still. He wanted to continue his unfinished business quietly.
However, Xia Yunxi shook her head resolutely, her face red as an apple.
“Brother, we can’t do this here!”
Lin Fengmian whispered in her ear, “Just be quiet.”
“I’m afraid I can’t control myself, brother, please.”
Xia Yunxi was almost in tears as she looked at him with pleading eyes.
Lin Fengmian knew that she was shy and would be embarrassed if others heard such intimate things.
He also felt a little uncomfortable himself, so he could only sigh and reluctantly take advantage of her for a while before letting her go.
Xia Yunxi tidied up her messy clothes and said guiltily, “Brother, I’m sorry, but I really can’t…”
Lin Fengmian stroked her head, “How can I blame you? I’m the one making you suffer.”
