Chapter 239: Chapter 241: Taking Care of Lin Qiong

Li Yifei didn’t decline, after all, he was quite good friends with Lin Qiong, and when a friend was in trouble, how could he not help? Besides, this favor was rather enticing. Whenever he was with Xu Yingying, Xu Shanshan, and Michelle, he always had some reservations, afraid of playing too hard and leaving the situation unresolved.

But it was different with Lin Qiong. Although she no longer looked down on him like before, she clearly didn’t have those kinds of feelings for him. At most, they could be considered decent friends. And when it came to relationships, Lin Qiong still very much disdained him. So no matter how much of a fuss he caused with Lin Qiong, Li Yifei wasn’t worried she would cling to him.

Just then, Lin Qiong’s phone rang. After glancing at the caller ID, she whispered to Li Yifei, "It’s my mom’s call. These past few days, she’s been calling me non-stop. She even wanted you to listen, but you never caught it. It’s kind of freaking me out."

Li Yifei chuckled and said, "Well, today’s a good day to chat with her and help you cover up the lie."

Lin Qiong nodded and took the call. After a couple of greetings, she handed the phone to Li Yifei, saying, "Yifei, my mom wants to speak to you."

Li Yifei took the phone and politely greeted her, then began to chat with Lin Qiong’s mother.

When it came to sweet-talking elders, Li Yifei was quite adept. He spoke endearingly and his words were pleasant to hear, making Lin Qiong’s mother very happy. Of course, regarding the specifics of buying a house, Li Yifei maintained the same story as Lin Qiong, saying they were still looking. As for the matter of getting a marriage certificate, he said he had been away on a business trip a few days ago, which was why they hadn’t gotten it yet, but they planned to pick a good day to do so soon.

"Yifei, don’t you have a computer? Let’s video chat instead. It’ll save on the phone bill."

Li Yifei promptly agreed eagerly, "Sure, I’ll get on the computer right away."

After hanging up, Lin Qiong immediately frowned and said, "Why did you agree to video chat with my mom?"

"You think I could have refused?" Li Yifei countered Lin Qiong.

Lin Qiong replied with a pained expression, "But I’m injured. If my mom sees this, she’ll definitely come running over, and then we’ll be in trouble."

Li Yifei snickered and said, "That’s easy to handle, I guarantee she won’t notice a thing."

"How will you manage that?"

Li Yifei leaned in and whispered a few words in Lin Qiong’s ear, causing her to glare fiercely at him, but soon, she resignedly said, "Well, you better get ready quickly then."

Li Yifei laughed heartily and swiftly ran into the bedroom to fetch Lin Qiong’s laptop. After booting it up, he lifted Lin Qiong so she could sit on his legs; with his own legs apart, they kept the injured part of her body from touching anything, which made Lin Qiong feel incredibly embarrassed.

"I warn you, don’t try anything funny," Lin Qiong said as Li Yifei held her, feeling a bit weak all over. It was her first time being this close to a man, especially with her bottom uncovered, which added a sense of indescribable intimacy.

Li Yifei chuckled wryly, "You’re in this state, what could I possibly do? I’d have to be a real beast, right?"

"You are quite the beast," Lin Qiong cast a glance at Li Yifei, but felt somewhat more at ease. Reflecting on that time when she got drunk and stayed over at Li Yifei’s place, he didn’t do anything to her, so she believed he wouldn’t do anything now either.

"Alright, we’ll discuss whether I’m a beast or not later. Shouldn’t you log into QQ now? Otherwise, your mom will start to worry."

Lin Qiong then took the laptop, logged into QQ, and immediately received a video call invitation. She gave Li Yifei a look then gritted her teeth and answered the call.

"What are you two doing?" Lin Qiong’s parents appeared in the video, with her father standing behind and her mother sitting in front of the computer, her face a picture of shock.

Lin Qiong blushed and said, "It’s nothing; you insisted on video chatting, didn’t you?"

At that moment, Lin Qiong’s mother didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, seeing her daughter wrapped in a towel and realizing the couple had just been intimate, she quickly replied, "Alright, alright, we can talk another time. You young people, really..."

Seeing her mother react this way, Lin Qiong, despite feeling shy, suddenly had an idea and quickly said, "It’s okay, Mom, I still need to update you on our house-hunting progress."

"What’s there to report at this hour? Okay, go on, do what you need to do. Once you’ve chosen a house, your dad and I will come over to take a look."

"Alright then."

No sooner had Lin Qiong finished speaking than the other party had already ended the video call. These old folks were a bit overwhelmed. Nowadays, the way young people get intimate, even video chats aren’t free from mishaps; they’ve become rather careless. But evidently, they did understand that Lin Qiong and Li Yifei were very close to each other.

Letting out a sigh of relief, Lin Qiong shut down the computer and turned to Li Yifei saying, "Haven’t you held me enough?"

Li Yifei immediately protested, saying, "I’m helping you, alright?"

"Hmmph, helping, you say? Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. When I first met you, you played the weakling to take advantage of me. I haven’t even settled that score with you yet."

Li Yifei suddenly felt guilty and said with a wry smile, "We agreed to let bygones be bygones, didn’t we? You can’t just burn the bridge after crossing the river, right?"

Lin Qiong snorted, "I might not bring it up, but the image I have of you in my mind just can’t be erased. So naturally, under these circumstances, I assume you want to take advantage of me."

"And yet you let me? Are you silly? Ha ha... I get it now. You’ve fallen for me and deliberately allowed me to take advantage," Li Yifei teased.

"Go die!" Lin Qiong viciously bit towards Li Yifei’s shoulder.

Li Yifei was already prepared, he stretched out his hand to block Lin Qiong’s forehead and said with a smile, "Don’t be fierce, I was just joking with you."

"If you dare to crack such a joke again, see if I don’t bite you to death," Lin Qiong threatened through gritted teeth. At this moment, she was still relying on Li Yifei to care for her, so she didn’t dare to do anything to him.

It had already grown dark outside, and Li Yifei said to Lin Qiong, "It’s getting late, you should rest early, I’m going back now."

"Go, go, I’ve been sick of you for a while," Lin Qiong waved her hand dismissively.

Li Yifei chuckled and carried Lin Qiong towards the bedroom.

"What are you doing?" Lin Qiong screamed in fright.

"What else can I be doing by heading to the bedroom? Get in bed, of course," Li Yifei answered cheerfully.

But this time, Lin Qiong didn’t get angry. Instead, she gave Li Yifei a disdainful look and said, "You really can’t utter anything refined from a dog’s mouth. If you spoke properly, I might actually thank you, but with you talking like this, all I can do is despise you."

"Despise me if you want, I’ve grown used to your contempt. If you didn’t look down on me, I wouldn’t be able to stand it."

Li Yifei enjoyed talking such nonsense with Lin Qiong when he was with her, making the policewoman angry beyond words, while he derived a lot of joy from it.

After placing Lin Qiong on the bed, Li Yifei turned to leave but hesitated for a moment, saying, "Are you sure you’ll be okay after I leave, by yourself?"

"What could be wrong with me? It’s just some wound, a mere scratch on the skin. Don’t see me as so delicate, and don’t forget—I’m still a police officer."

"It’s because I’m worried about you being too tough that I’m concerned," Li Yifei shook his head and said, "Alright, alright, I’ll stay a bit longer and serve you, Madam, for a few more minutes."

"Who needs your service? I’m not without hands or feet."

"You’d still need to use them properly, and you still have a butt. Try sitting up and let’s have a look," he teased.

"You..." Lin Qiong was left speechless.

"Haha... You rest up, I’ll go clean up the bathroom first. Otherwise, you might injure the other half of your butt later. Even though it would be balanced, you’ll be even less able to move."

"Your other half of the butt is the one that’s hurt."

"If I hurt the other half of my butt, then we’d be well matched, haha..."

"Scram!"

Li Yifei laughed heartily, went to the bathroom, and cleaned up the broken glass on the floor, then tossed a towel toward Lin Qiong for her to use.

Lin Qiong was actually quite satisfied with such service from Li Yifei and was very grateful for his care, but if it had been someone else, she would have said some polite words. However, when talking with Li Yifei, she never managed to say anything nice, and after wiping her face, she complained, "This towel is so cold, you really need to correct this."

Li Yifei immediately nodded in agreement, "I definitely will correct it. Next time, I’ll make it hot enough to scald pig hair before I wipe your face with it."

"You’re the pig," Lin Qiong felt very frustrated. Every time she verbally sparred with Li Yifei, she ended up on the losing side; he was simply her nemesis.

"By the way, do you need to go to the bathroom again?" Li Yifei asked another question.

"No need!" Lin Qiong replied without hesitation.

"If there’s no need, then I will leave. Remember to lie on your stomach when sleeping tonight. You should scab over by tomorrow and at least be able to do some simple movements." Having said that, Li Yifei turned and walked towards the door.

But just as he reached the doorway, he heard Lin Qiong’s voice: "Wait a minute."

Li Yifei returned to Lin Qiong’s bedroom, frowning, "What now? Can’t you say everything at once? You don’t need to torment people like this."

Lin Qiong gritted her teeth and said, "I need to use the bathroom after all."

"I told you so, didn’t I? Yet you insist on waiting until I’m about to leave to say it." Muttering, Li Yifei picked Lin Qiong up again and took her straight to the bathroom.
