While Xie Feng waited anxiously and tried not to pray to any particular God that the beauties in the kitchen would not come here yet, Yin Yue covered her mouth and her shoulders shook gently.
Although no sound escaped from her mouth because she was holding back, it was too obvious to anyone that she was laughing.
Between tears and laughter, she nodded and said honestly, "If I were a few years younger, I have no doubt that I would be attracted by you. But at my age, I'm afraid it's not that easy. Besides, unlike the beauties you have here, I'm just a normal woman with nothing noteworthy. Why would you bother with me then?"
Hearing her reply, the embarrassment and awkwardness he had felt earlier suddenly disappeared. Instead, what Xie Feng began to feel was a bit of anger.
That's right, anger.
Yin Yue's giggling and her words were somehow annoying him and even he didn't understand the exact reason.
"That's what you think?"
Xie Feng suddenly stood up, startling the woman who had barely stopped laughing. He walked over to the couch where she was sitting and came dangerously close, looking her straight in the eyes.
"You..." Yin Yue tried to pull her body back but the back of the couch wouldn't let her. Unconsciously she glanced over her shoulder towards the kitchen and seeing that no one was looking this way she sighed in relief.
"Xie Feng, what are you doing?" she asked in a weird tone.
He didn't answer and stared at her. After what seemed like an eternity of silence, Xie Feng sighed lightly and sat back down, relieving her greatly.
After returning to his place, Xie Feng looked at her with a serious expression and said, "I don't understand exactly what you mean by your last words, but I have to strongly disagree."
"Hah?"
Yin Yue was dumbfounded and even she herself had not noticed that her face was slightly blushing. However, she was aware that her heart rate had altered slightly. Therefore, Xie Feng's sudden withdrawal and his words had left her not knowing how to react.
"Just before, you said why would someone like me bother with a woman like you, didn't you? "Xie Feng looked at her and shook his head seriously. "Although I don't know why you're still single, let me assume that at some point in your life you had a bad experience in love."
Yin Yue said nothing and looked at him with a strange glint in her eyes. Xie Feng continued:
"You are a wonderful woman. Not only are you kind enough to donate a large part of your salary to charity, but you are even willing to put your life aside for Xinya's sake. Your smile is dazzling and the way you move your eyes whenever you feel uncomfortable just like now, all this is much more beautiful than you think. All this aside, you are a powerful techno-type Esper with outstanding battle ability... Yin Yue, do you really think you are just another woman?"
Xie Feng did not talk about her body nor did he talk about her face. Because this was all too obvious and the number of times Yin Yue must have been praised for her wonderful physique must surely have been too many times to remember.
What he wanted was to show her that she was not a simple woman, that she was a special woman with different qualities to highlight.
"Ah! Big brother, can you help us here for a moment?" Xie Yao peeked through the kitchen door and upon seeing Xie Feng immediately waved her hand for him to come over.
Xie Feng gave the seemingly surprised woman one last look and stood up, "Sure! What do I have to do?"
"Actually it's not much. It's just that..."
Yin Yue didn't pay too much attention to what was going on in the kitchen. She was still processing everything Xie Feng had told her earlier and, to her utmost surprise, she realized that the young man who had just left had been observing her and had been paying more attention to her than it seemed.
Not only small gestures and movements but also her personality. In other words, he had not only been looking at her radiantly curvaceous body or her seductive face but had actually been paying attention to her as a person.
After a few minutes of silence, Yin Yue chuckled and shook her head softly, "Really... This little rascal is the nemesis of all women. Even a woman of my age is not immune to his silver tongue."

In the afternoon, Xie Feng drove straight to the largest shopping mall in all of Shanghai City. Due to the explosive growth of Gu Qianxue's body, her underwear was no longer of any use and even Xie Yao's bras, which were quite prominent, could not contain her breasts for too long without her feeling discomfort.
Taking the opportunity, all the beauties decided to buy clothes for themselves therefore only the Land Rover was not enough for the whole lineup.
In his vehicle were Xie Yao, Gu Qianxue, Shen Xinya, and Han Xue Nai.
Meanwhile, Yin Yue drove the Audi A9 that rarely left the garage to see the sunlight. Inside the vehicle, apart from herself, were the little red-haired princess of the Yao Family, Yao Mei, and her uncle Yao Shun, who was still dressed like a butler.
After about thirty minutes, both cars parked in the subway and headed for the shopping mall. However, things were not that simple.
"Well, I'd be lying if I said I didn't expect something like this to happen." Xie Feng smiled bitterly and shook his head as he continued walking forward.
His bitter words made the beauties beside him not know whether to laugh or cry. They all looked at each other and saw the same helpless glint in each other's eyes.
With a lineup of heavenly beauties like this, it was simply impossible not to attract attention, let alone in a mall that was a place where crowds naturally congregated.
"Hey... Look at those girls!"
"Hot as hell!"
"That girl clinging to that guy's arm has the hottest body I've ever seen in my entire life."
"Hey, don't you think the woman in the scarf and French beret looks kinda familiar?"
"Love... This is love at first sight."
"Idiot! Stand right here, do you want to die?"
"There's no way a group like this is normal. That guy has so many beautiful women around him but they're all smiling happily and fighting for his attention, he's definitely not someone to play with!"
...
Looking at the tens and hundreds of people stopping in a state of shock to look at their group, Xie Feng overheard different conversations and comments; mostly from men of different ages.
While many women practically drooled when they saw him, needless to say, most of the attention was focused on the various beauties at his side. The men in the place seemed to have blood red eyes and if it weren't for what little sense they had left they might have tried something with them.
Among all the girls, the one who received the most attention was undoubtedly Gu Qianxue, who was wearing a pair of contact lenses to cover her pink eyes. She was hugging his arm tightly over her generous chest and nuzzling her face gently on his shoulder like a happy puppy.
Gu Qianxue's body was simply too impressive. All the men, regardless of whether he was a teenager or an old man in his 60s, all looked at her in stupefaction.
As for this, Xie Feng could only sigh.. What else could he do? Kill them all? He was not an immature child so as long as no one overstepped the limits and his patience allowed, he would not do such a thing.
