The Charm of a Powerful Woman Spreads Across the World - Chapter 30
Yun Tianze rolled his eyes at Ru Feng: "You really think of me as a woman? If you weren't the one saying that, things would be dangerous." He then smiled mischievously.
Ru Feng shuddered and said, "Fine, I'm scared of you. But Tianze, my junior sister Zuiyue's medical skills are quite good. Would you like her to take a look at you?"
A hint of sadness flashed in Yun Tianze's eyes, but he quickly recovered: "I've seen countless famous doctors since I was a child, but nothing has helped. It's a disease I was born with, and I can only be kept alive with expensive medicines, but it's not life-threatening." As he said this, his face was completely calm.
Ru Feng felt a pang of sympathy, knowing that those who suffer from prolonged illness either become violent or, like Yun Tianze, remain indifferent. Yun Tianze's ability to achieve the latter must have come from experiencing many hardships.
Thinking of this, Ru Feng couldn't help but feel a strong sense of pity for Yun Tianze. Could it be that this was truly a case of heaven being jealous of beauty?
"Ru Feng, why are you suddenly asking this question? Do you not intend to marry only one person in the future?" Yu Xuan's words interrupted everyone's thoughts.
Ru Feng rolled her eyes at him and said seriously, "As long as I like it, one is enough."
They walked in silence until they finally reached Shulong. Rufeng looked at the sky and saw that it was still early. He touched his stomach and felt hungry, so he said at the entrance, "I want to go to the headmaster's place. Do you want to come?"
Yun Tianze shook his head: "I'm going back to rest. You guys go ahead."
Yujue and Yuxuan also shook their heads: "Not just anyone can go to the headmaster's place, so I won't go." With that, the two of them disappeared faster than rabbits.
Ru Feng stood there dumbfounded: Is this mountain chief some kind of monster? Why is everyone hiding so fast?
Shaking his head, Ru Feng turned left, walked along the familiar path, and finally arrived at Mu Wenchen's residence.
Mu Tong had gotten used to Ru Feng's uninvited arrivals, so he had also gotten used to not using the gate but climbing over the wall to get in.
"Mu Wenchen, are you there?" Ru Feng called out loudly as soon as he entered the door.
Mu Tong walked out of the kitchen, carrying a pot of tea, and said coldly, "Keep your voice down, you're waking up a dead person!"
Like the wind sticking out its tongue, it followed them into the house.
The room was simply furnished. Upon entering, one was immediately faced with a screen, behind which was presumably a bed. Ru Feng had never paid attention to what the bed looked like, as her attention was drawn to the large window on the right.
It was a very large window, unlike any other, because it was a floor-to-ceiling window made of semi-transparent glass. This is common in modern times, but it was quite rare in ancient times.
Ru Feng had examined it carefully and concluded that it wasn't made of glass, but simply a piece of something that allowed her to see outside. She wanted to know Ming Yu's name, but Mu Wenchen brushed it off lightly, leaving Ru Feng deeply disappointed.
At this moment, Mu Wenchen was sitting by the window, with a Go board in front of him, engrossed in playing. The setting sun shone through the translucent window, bathing him in a golden light, making him appear like a handsome god.
Ru Feng was momentarily dazed, and sighed, "Wen Chen, you are really handsome!"
Mu Tong snorted coldly, while Ru Feng glared at him: "What? Don't you agree? Or do you think Mu Wenchen is ugly?" Ru Feng didn't want to be called the headmaster, so he just called him "Mu Wenchen Mu Wenchen." Anyway, the person in charge didn't mind, but the servant did. Ru Feng never took Mu Tong's objections seriously.
Ru Feng walked over and sat opposite Mu Wenchen, looking at the chessboard, and said, "Only lonely people play chess with themselves."
Mu Wenchen remained unmoved, still deep in thought.
Ru Feng said listlessly, "I saw you in the square today. I thought you left as soon as the opening ceremony ended. So you're still here!" Actually, Ru Feng wasn't sure if he was seeing things, but he said it anyway.
Mu Wenchen paused, his hand holding the white piece pausing, but he remained silent.
At this moment, Ru Feng's attention had already shifted to Mu Tong, so of course he didn't notice Mu Wen Chen's actions.
"Mu Tong, please have pity on me! Ever since I ate your food, I haven't been able to taste anything else. I'm hungry now, could you please get me some snacks?" she said, looking at him pitifully.
Mu Tong's usually expressionless face twitched, and she said coldly, "Hasn't the chef already been changed?"
"But how can Aunt Lan's cooking skills compare to yours?" A fawning smile followed.
Mu Tong snorted, poured Mu Wenchen a cup of fragrant tea, put the teapot aside, and left the room after seeing Mu Wenchen nod.
Ru Feng clapped his hands happily: "Thank you, Wen Chen!"
For the rest of the time, Ru Feng kept talking about the sports meet. She talked on and on, while Mu Wenchen was playing his chess game. Ru Feng didn't seem to care about the audience's uncooperative attitude and kept talking until she finished a plate of tea and snacks. Then she checked the time and realized it was time to go to the sports field to wrap things up, so she said goodbye and went back.
After Ru Feng left, Mu Tong tidied up the remaining pieces of the game, looking thoughtfully at the chessboard where his master hadn't made many moves.
When Ru Feng arrived at the square, he tallied up the day's wins and losses and posted the results on the bulletin board. Then he called everyone to leave together.
Back at the academy, everyone quickly inquired about the day's battle. Upon learning that they had tied with Luolin Academy, they were all eager to prove themselves in tomorrow's music, chess, calligraphy, and painting competitions, and the day after tomorrow's football, archery, horse racing, and martial arts competitions! Just as Ru Feng was about to return to her room, she was stopped by Bai Shaojun, who had been waiting for her under a tree in the courtyard.
Chapter 53 Heartbeat
Although Bai Shaojun's words made Rufeng a little uneasy, her physical exhaustion quickly overcame her enthusiasm for investigating the matter. So she only thought about it for a moment and didn't think about what methods Bai Shaojun would use to deal with her. In the past, Bai Shaojun had only occasionally made things difficult for Rufeng in class.
Ru Feng quickly put the matter out of her mind and hurried back to her room, where Yu Xuan had already taken off all but his boxer shorts.
Ru Feng was startled when she pushed the door open: "Yu Xuan, how could you do this? This isn't a public bathhouse, why did you undress so quickly?"
Yu Xuan blinked innocently: "I'm hot, I've sweated so much, and it's so close to the bathhouse." As he spoke, he stretched out his muscular body, and Ru Feng stared at him intently.
Broad, thick shoulders, a tight waist, a beautiful inverted triangle body shape, and... and Yu Xuan even has six-pack abs!
Ru Feng opened her eyes wide, squinted, and said, "Brother Xuan, you actually have six-pack abs! How did you get them?" As she spoke, she tentatively reached out to touch them.
Wow! Ru Feng enjoyed the feeling of the tight, bulging muscles under her hands. She had seen models with this kind of figure in some magazines before, and she had always wanted to feel those muscles. She had even asked her father to take off his clothes so she could touch them—a request that was of course firmly rejected by Yu Chi's father.
Unexpectedly, she could actually touch it now. Ru Feng squinted her eyes in satisfaction, but her heart was beating faster. You see, this was the first time she had ever been so close to a naked male body. If she weren't so shameless, she would definitely have gotten a nosebleed.
Yu Xuan proudly showed off his figure, and seeing how much Ru Feng liked it, he said smugly, "How about it? Isn't my body beautiful? You shorty will never have a body like that in your entire life!"
After saying that, he deliberately glanced at Ru Feng's thin figure, his narrow shoulders, and his lack of breadth.
Ru Feng, who was blushing and her heart was pounding, immediately snapped back to reality upon hearing this. However, her fingers remained on Yu Xuan's pectoral muscles as she retorted, "Tch—I don't even care about your physique. Have you ever seen a boiled chicken? If not, look at you. Your skin is so white, like a girl's! Don't you know that tanned skin is a symbol of a man's health and charm?"
"Hmph, if you don't like it, why are you still sticking your face to me? Take it away!" Yu Xuan grabbed Ru Feng's fingers in a fit of rage, and after looking at them, he mocked, "You say my skin is fair, but yours isn't much darker. Look at your hands, they're just like a woman's, so fair and tender, even fairer than mine!"
