Chapter 57 The Morning Farce

The next morning.

Xing, yawning, came to Cripple Castle with March 7 to find Chen Feng. After all, they were leaving soon, and they couldn't let Chen Feng sleep in any longer.

"That old man of mine is really something. He knows he's leaving today, but he still sleeps in like a little kid."

Xing stood in front of Chen Feng's house and complained along with March 7th.

"Mr. Chen Feng must be working very hard too. After all, he's handling almost all of Bellberg's affairs, so it's normal for him to need more rest." March 7th expressed her understanding, saying that they were already exhausted from working in the Lower City alone, and Chen Feng had even more to do.

"Xing, isn't it a bad idea for us to just go in like this? What if Mr. Chen Feng—" At this moment, March 7th suddenly saw Xing raise his hand to open the door and quickly stopped him.

"What's wrong with that? Are we just going to wait here like this? Dream on." Xing didn't care about any of that and immediately put her hand on the doorknob, but just as she was about to open the door, the doorknob pressed down on its own.

"Huh?" Xing blinked, and was taken aback when she saw Bronya appear at the door.

Meanwhile, March 7, standing behind Xing, was completely stunned when he saw Bronya emerge from the door.

"Uh." Bronya was also stunned, she really didn't expect Xinghe and March 7 to be here.

The three people stood there, staring at each other, none of them speaking immediately.

Just as Xing thought she had opened the wrong door, a lazy voice came from behind the door.

"What are you doing standing there without lifting a finger?" The voice belonged to Chen Feng, who had come up behind Bronya and also saw Moji and Hoshino.

Good grief, it's only this early and they're already blocking the door. They must have so much free time.

Xing's thoughts shattered instantly, and she stared at the two people in front of her in disbelief.

"Dad, you, you two—" Xing pointed at the two of them but couldn't speak. March 7th also covered her mouth and her cheeks were slightly red. You don't really think she's stupid, do you? This kind of thing is obviously the same no matter how you look at it.

"Mother, Mother is still waiting for me, I have to go now." Bronya couldn't stay any longer. Last night's events had already exhausted most of her energy, and this morning she had to go through it again and face Xing and the others. Her face really couldn't take it anymore.

Xing pointed at Bronya's retreating figure, then suddenly turned around, his eyes wide like saucers, his mouth agape, his voice rising eight octaves in shock: "Father, Father! You, you two—last night—Bronya—she—came out of your room?! So early in the morning?!"

On March 7th, he covered his face with his hands, his blue eyes peeking out from between his fingers, flashing with disbelief and burning with the fire of gossip.

"Um, did I...did I see something I shouldn't have?! Mr. Chen Feng! Miss Bronya! You—"

"You guys—are things progressing this fast?!"

Chen Feng leaned against the door frame, his face bearing a smile that was a mixture of languor, composure, and a hint of helplessness at being caught in the act.

He raised his hand and rubbed his slightly messy hair, then yawned: "Hmm—good morning, Xing, March 7th."

You guys are really energetic, coming to block the door so early.

97

He made no attempt to deny it; his matter-of-fact yet slightly mocking expression was tantamount to acknowledging all the "impure" images that flashed through Xing and March 7's minds.

"What do you mean 'wake me up', Dad!" Xing finally found his voice, rushed forward, and circled Chen Feng twice, as if checking if he was missing a piece of flesh or had any unwanted marks.

"Is that the point?! The point is why Bronya came out of your room! And—and she looked like that!" She tried her best to imitate Bronya's embarrassed, downcast face, blushing cheeks, and hurried steps.

"Like that?" Chen Feng raised an eyebrow, feigning ignorance. "What do you mean by 'like that'? Wasn't she perfectly normal? She just came to discuss something with me."

"Liar!" Xing and March 7 shouted in unison.

"You need to come out of your room first thing in the morning to discuss things, and your face is all red?" Xing put her hands on her hips, with a "don't try to fool me" look on her face. "And you need to discuss things" all night? Dad, do you think we're three-year-olds?

Confess now!

Although March 7th was shy, her curiosity completely overcame her timidity, and she leaned over to ask in a low voice, "Yes, yes, Mr. Chen Feng, you—you two, did you—you did that?" She shyly put her two index fingers together and pointed.

Chen Feng looked at the two faces in front of him, which were filled with a thirst for knowledge, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

He reached out and lightly flicked Xing's forehead, which was very close to his.

"Ouch!" Xing covered her forehead.

"Children shouldn't pry into adults' affairs."

He stepped aside to clear the doorway: "Come in, don't block the way. Didn't you say you were leaving? Let me tidy up."

He turned and walked into the room, leaving Xing and March 7th standing at the door looking at each other.

"He admitted it! He absolutely admitted it!" Xing excitedly grabbed March 7's arm and shook it.

"Look at his expression! It's an adult matter!" Isn't that tacit agreement?! My God! Daddy got Bronya?! This is even more explosive than punching the creation engine to pieces!"

March 7th's face flushed with excitement, and she nodded repeatedly: "Mmm-hmm! And Miss Bronya's appearance just now—"

Wow, I never imagined that the usually dignified and calm Acting Grand Guardian would have such a cute and shy side!

The two chattered excitedly at the door, exchanging glances and imagining scenarios, until Chen Feng shouted from inside, "If you don't come and help me pack, I'm leaving you two in the lower city to continue playing in the dust."

"They're here!" Xing and March 7th suddenly snapped out of their daze and quickly squeezed into the room, their faces still beaming with smiles and mischief.

A faint, lingering fragrance, seemingly not belonging to Chen Feng, seemed to remain in the room, causing the two girls to exchange a knowing glance and chuckle to themselves.

While helping Chen Feng haphazardly stuff his not-so-large suitcase, Xing couldn't help but sneakily sidle up to him: "Dad, can you give me a little hint? Just a little! Lady Bronya—she—took the initiative?"

She winked and made faces.

Chen Feng glanced at her, then slowly folded a coat: "Xing ah————"

"Hmm?" Xing asked expectantly.

"Your Flame Spear doesn't seem to be activated yet. I'll practice with you later and maybe I can help you activate it. Otherwise, it's just useless to hold onto it."

"What? I attacked the Guardian Token?" Xing was stunned. He pointed at himself and then quickly begged for mercy, "No, Dad, you can't do that!"
