Chapter 213
Outside the door, Lu Zheng was still sitting on the chair, his expression slightly complicated.
Although he had broken free from the shackles of morality, morality wasn’t something that would simply disappear just because you said it did.
During this round of teasing Yi Ning, Lu Zheng could be said to be experiencing both pain and pleasure.
He felt immense guilt from going against his own morals, yet at the same time, he took pleasure in Yi Ning’s expression—clearly extremely unwilling, but forced to obediently comply and flatter Lu Zheng with all her might.
Roughly thirty percent of it was due to his appreciation of Yi Ning’s aggrieved look of helplessness, while the remaining seventy percent came from her unreserved flattery.
A beautiful girl who would obey no matter what orders he gave.
And she was even very cute.
Lu Zheng felt a faint thrill of depravity.
“Bang!”
Lu Zheng lifted his head.
Yi Ning had pushed open the dressing room door, eyes wide open, her face bearing an expression like she was ready to perish together.
Judging by her expression, it seemed Lu Zheng’s earlier behavior had already pushed Yi Ning to her limit.
And it made sense.
Back when she had worn that piece of underwear whose total fabric wouldn’t even cover a palm…
Yi Ning, now dressed in her original outfit, pressed one hand on the door, pointed her thumb toward herself with the other, and shouted at Lu Zheng:
“I'm done with this crap! If you’ve got the guts, come at me head-on!”
Her voice was loud enough to suggest she had absolutely intended for others to hear it.
She was likely trying to attract the attention of the shop staff, to regain the upper hand and put an end to this absurd scene.
Lu Zheng sighed quietly, feeling somewhat relieved in his heart.
As early as when Yi Ning had first entered the dressing room with that pile of underwear, Lu Zheng had already used his superpower to completely isolate this area from the outside world.
Other than the two of them, no one could possibly perceive anything happening in this area.
That could be considered a small expression of Lu Zheng’s possessiveness.
Of course, due to his own twisted sense of amusement, Lu Zheng had never told Yi Ning about this.
Otherwise, how could he enjoy seeing her flustered, blushing face as she worried about being seen?
Lu Zheng secretly rolled his eyes again, feeling a bit helpless about his own superpower.
Why did it always give him such powerful abilities at these improper moments, while during serious tasks it only ever handed him some useless, broken abilities?
Lu Zheng stood up.
He didn’t continue to provoke our Miss Yi Ning.
She was clearly on the verge of her shame threshold, and pushing further might genuinely cause her to explode.
Not the current kind of explosion, full of hidden thoughts beneath a façade of reckless bravado, but a more serious, all-in, throw-everything-away kind of explosion.
Lu Zheng glanced at the middle-aged man hanging beside the clothing rack, someone he’d seen in textbooks before, then sighed and stepped into the dressing room. He picked up the underwear Yi Ning had taken off, and, giving in to his desires, chose a few semi-revealing pieces in Yi Ning’s size. Then, under her strong insistence, he added a few conservative ones, and went to the staff to pay.
To be fair, while Yi Ning could be a bit unscrupulous at times, she was also unexpectedly considerate on occasion.
Since they were pretending to be a couple, Yi Ning had tossed Lu Zheng a purse of gold coins before entering the store.
Altogether, ten items cost half a gold coin.
Ridiculously expensive.
Though the staff claimed all of it was made from special materials—comfortable to wear and enchanted with protective spells, so one didn’t need to worry about wardrobe malfunctions during combat—
Yi Ning already had protective inventions on her body. These kinds of things were just not practical for her.
Coverage area and price were inversely proportional, basically.
On the way back, Yi Ning kept muttering that Lu Zheng was "selling grandpa’s land like a spoiled brat."
Even though he was buying stuff for her.
There was just a tiny bit of personal motive involved.
So Lu Zheng didn’t do anything to Yi Ning.
He just forcibly picked her up in the middle of the street, and under the watchful eyes of bystanders, carried her all the way back to Lester’s home in a princess carry.
It wasn’t until they arrived at Lester’s house that Yi Ning noticed—this guy had even bought groceries along the way.
And he had been with her almost the entire time. She had no idea when he’d managed that.
Yi Ning tightly clung to Lu Zheng’s neck with both arms, snuggled up against him, silently complaining with a blank expression.
“We’ve arrived. Time to get down.”
Lu Zheng lightly patted Yi Ning on the back, reminding the girl who was still dazed in his arms.
“Hmph!”
“Aren’t you the one who loves carrying people? Then I’ll let you carry me to your heart’s content!”
Yi Ning snorted coldly, baring her teeth at Lu Zheng.
Clearly, Lu Zheng’s earlier act of yielding had caused Yi Ning to get cocky.
The skies cleared, the rain stopped—Yi Ning felt like she was back in charge.
Lu Zheng didn’t say much. He simply let the hand holding Yi Ning begin to slide slowly down her back.
The sudden loss of support on her back made Yi Ning instinctively cling tighter to Lu Zheng’s neck.
Their heads drew closer together, and the faint fragrance emanating from Yi Ning’s body began to spread over Lu Zheng.
“Hey, what are you trying to do?”
Feeling the movement of the hand on her back, Yi Ning grew a little nervous.
A faint breath of air brushed past Lu Zheng’s ear, making it slightly itchy.
Lu Zheng’s hand finally stopped near Yi Ning’s sacrum.
He gave her another gentle pat and softly whispered in her ear, “If you don’t get down soon, I won’t be so polite anymore.”
Yi Ning pouted. After weighing the pros and cons in her heart, she finally chose to get down on her own.
But Yi Ning clearly still wasn’t satisfied.
At the dinner table, she actually tried to make a move on Lu Zheng again under the cover of the table.
Lu Zheng simply grabbed her in one motion, placed her on his lap, and in full view of the two others at the table, began feeding her in a spoon-fed play.
“Um… I was wrong. Could you please put me down?”
Yi Ning obediently sat on Lu Zheng’s lap, hands resting on her knees, cheeks flushed as she looked at the spoon held out to her.
She glanced at the Lester siblings across the table, then, under their teasing gazes, turned pleading eyes to Lu Zheng.
Lu Zheng remained unfazed.
He calmly brought the spoonful of food to Yi Ning’s lips.
“Here, ah—”
Yi Ning snuck another glance at the gossip-hungry pair across from them, curled up into a ball, the blush on her face deepening.
Considering Lu Zheng’s left hand that was constantly rubbing her waist, Yi Ning finally shut her eyes, hardened her resolve, and opened her mouth wide, swallowing the spoonful in one gulp amidst the jeering from the two siblings.
To be honest—Dinner actually tasted pretty good.
It had been prepared by Lu Zheng and Lester’s sister together, under the pretense of “learning.”
Not having to do it herself, and having someone feed her bite by bite, felt surprisingly comfortable.
If only she could remove the two nosy siblings across from her and Lu Zheng’s constantly roaming left hand from the equation, then tonight’s dinner could be described as pure enjoyment.
Unfortunately, there were no “ifs” in this world.
And so, under the watchful eyes of the two across the table, Yi Ning was spoon-fed every bite of her meal by Lu Zheng.
By the way, after witnessing this intimate feeding play between Lu Zheng and Yi Ning, Lester’s sister also turned to Lester and opened her mouth.
