Chapter 656: Chapter 693 Selfish Man

"Little Qiongqiong, you came to see me today just to care about me; you’re really so good to me." Li Yifei wrapped his arm around Lin Qiong’s shoulder, smiling lewdly.

Lin Qiong shoved Li Yifei away suddenly, glaring and saying, "Don’t disgust me here. You’re such a menace; I wish you’d just die sooner."

"How can my Little Qiongqiong be so heartless?"

Lin Qiong glared at Li Yifei fiercely and said, "Hmph, you’re Xu Yingying’s husband, not mine. Why should I care about you?"

"Well, we met late. If I had met you earlier, I would’ve married you."

Lin Qiong crossed her arms and said, "Oh really? Alright then, divorce Xu Yingying now, and I’ll marry you."

Li Yifei coughed awkwardly and said, "I’m not that irresponsible. If I could divorce Yingying and be with you, doesn’t that mean I could divorce you and run off with someone else in the future?"

"Hmph, you’re just all talks. I’ve walked a lot today, and my feet hurt. Help me rub them." Lin Qiong said, lying back and putting her foot right on Li Yifei’s leg.

Li Yifei held Lin Qiong’s foot, which, though not as soft as Xu Shanshan’s and a bit bony, still felt good in his hands. But he had already promised Ye Yunzhu that he’d go to her place tonight. Ye Yunzhu was surely waiting at home; if he arrived late, she wouldn’t let him off easily. And looking at Lin Qiong’s posture, it seemed she didn’t plan on letting him leave tonight either.

Li Yifei spoke in a very gentle tone, "Qiongqiong, you’re already tired today; go to bed early later."

Lin Qiong initially had her eyes closed but suddenly opened them and looked at Li Yifei. "You want me to sleep early so you can leave, right?"

Li Yifei coughed again and said, "I actually have something tonight."

"What is it? Tell me, I’m not unreasonable. If it’s truly important, I’ll let you go."

Li Yifei certainly couldn’t say he was going to Ye Yunzhu’s place; Lin Qiong would definitely get angry and certainly wouldn’t let him go. He quickly smiled and said, "The guys from the security department are throwing me a welcome party tonight. I’ve already promised them. If I don’t go, they’ll think I’m standing them up, which won’t be good for my future work, and it’s not very brotherly of me either."

Lin Qiong was a woman who valued loyalty and always followed those principles. Hearing what Li Yifei said, she asked, "So what time did you plan?"

"We originally set it for six, but after I got your call, I told them to wait and changed it to seven thirty; it’s almost seven now."

Lin Qiong showed a slight displeasure and said, "Alright then, you can leave at seven."

Li Yifei secretly breathed a sigh of relief but didn’t dare show it, flattering Lin Qiong, "I knew Qiongqiong was the most understanding."

"Come back right after drinking," she demanded.

"Uh? Come back after drinking? Then how can I explain it to Yingying?"

"I don’t care how you explain it. What, you’re going to deny it now after fooling around with me?"

Li Yifei smiled wryly, "Qiongqiong, it seems like every time it’s you fooling around with me."

Lin Qiong blushed but stubbornly replied, "I don’t care. Tonight I want it. If you don’t come to satisfy me, don’t think about going home."

Li Yifei gritted his teeth and said, "Alright then, let’s do it quickly, right now."

Lin Qiong retracted her foot, then suddenly kicked forward, almost knocking Li Yifei off the sofa, and angrily said, "You bastard, making it so painful, am I someone you called for?"

Li Yifei realized he had hurt Lin Qiong’s pride with his expression, chuckled, and said, "Just teasing you."

"You bastard!" Lin Qiong snorted but then burst into laughter seeing Li Yifei’s appearance. "Hurry up and go, remember to come back soon. Don’t let me wait too long."

Li Yifei agreed quickly and just stood up when his phone rang. He took it out and pointed, "See, they’re already urging me."

Lin Qiong waved her hand, "Hurry up and scram."

Feeling like he had been granted amnesty, Li Yifei hurriedly prepared to leave, but before he could finish putting on his shoes, Lin Qiong suddenly rushed over, surprisingly snatched Li Yifei’s phone, glanced at the name on the display, and glared at him fiercely, gritting her teeth, "Is this really your security department colleague?"

The name displayed was Ye Yunzhu, and Li Yifei’s lie was instantly exposed. He smiled wryly and said, "Qiongqiong, I didn’t mean to deceive you, but I promised Yunzhu I’d visit her today. You know she’s already expecting a child. I can’t not go. If I upset her and something happens to the baby, my guilt would be immeasurable."

"Yeah, Ye Yunzhu’s got your child in her belly, you should take good care of her." Lin Qiong’s tone was calm, not as agitated as before.

Li Yifei gently held Lin Qiong’s hand and said, "Qiongqiong, I’m sorry. I know you’re mad. Honestly, I didn’t mean to hide things from you, but my romantic life is so messy now that I’m truly not a man to entrust your life to."

Lin Qiong met Li Yifei’s gaze and said, "So what you’re saying is, you want me not to cling to you?"

"It’s not that you’re clinging to me. I’m not worth your affection; I can’t be with you properly every day."

"Hmph, don’t even think about it. I don’t care if you’re married or how many lovers you have. I just know you’re my man. When I want you, you have to come to me." Lin Qiong looked at Li Yifei with immense dominance, her words equally fierce.

"You’re such a fool." Li Yifei understood that Lin Qiong’s way of expressing herself was such; the more she said things like that, the more it showed how serious she was.

"I like it this way. Scram, I’m too lazy to compete with someone who’s pregnant." With that, Lin Qiong pushed Li Yifei out of the door and slammed it shut.

Listening to the elevator doors opening and closing outside, knowing Li Yifei had left, Lin Qiong’s expression became somewhat complicated. If she didn’t know that Li Yifei was the mysterious person, considering such a messy love life, she wouldn’t pay any attention to him. But knowing Li Yifei was that mysterious person, she couldn’t let go of him at all. Even though he often infuriated her when they were together, after the anger passed, she always felt sweet. He was very good at pacifying people.

"Hmph, you bastard, trying to get rid of me? No way. Xu Yingying, don’t think just because you’re his wife, you can have him all to yourself. Sooner or later, he’ll be mine." Lin Qiong clenched her fist confidently.

In the elevator, Li Yifei finally answered the call. Ye Yunzhu’s voice came through, "Was it inconvenient?"

Li Yifei immediately said, "I was at Lin Qiong’s; she wanted to discuss something."

"Hmph, so it’s that Deputy Director. Seriously, being a Deputy Director and still trying to steal someone else’s husband."

Li Yifei quickly coughed a few times. Now that Ye Yunzhu had been promoted to Deputy County Head, and she was very much like Lin Qiong, it was a case of "the pot calling the kettle black," but he dared not point that out.

"So, did you escape the tiger’s den?" Ye Yunzhu asked again.

"Yes, I said I needed to accompany you today, and Lin Qiong agreed." Li Yifei quickly spoke well of Lin Qiong. After all, all of them were his women; Li Yifei didn’t want them hating each other. If they started fighting whenever they met, it would be a headache for him.

"Did she really let you go so generously?" Ye Yunzhu clearly didn’t believe it.

"She might not have been so generous, but Lin Qiong is reasonable, especially knowing it’s you. She even gave way."

"Oh, so you’re saying I should give way too and let you stay with her tonight?"

"No, no, I promised you, and I’ll definitely come to you."

"Glad you know what’s good for you."

After hanging up, Li Yifei shook his head. In the past, everyone disliked each other, making Li Yifei’s life difficult. Now, they were not as hostile, but he couldn’t divide himself enough to care for everyone, creating new issues.

"Sigh, maybe I should set up a big harem and gather everyone together. That would prevent complications." Li Yifei suddenly had that thought. Su Mengxin had mentioned it to him before, but he found it absurd. Yet now he had a wife, Xu Yingying, who agreed to the presence of Su Yiyi and Chu Xiaoyao, Ye Yunzhu was also expecting his child, and there was Xu Shanshan, his inseparable sister-in-law. Li Yifei himself thought, since it had already come to this, it might not be bad to develop things in that direction.

But thinking about it was dauntingly difficult. Even if there were a nationality allowing polygamy, could they really coexist peacefully? If they fought daily, he’d lose his mind. After all, they’re all cherished, and taking sides wouldn’t work.

Moreover, among the women around him, Su Yiyi was fine, never fighting or competing, unlikely to cause conflicts. However, Xu Yingying, Ye Yunzhu, and Lin Qiong, each had intense personalities. Getting them all together would never be peaceful.

It seemed he could only take one step at a time now. If he let them go, allowing them to find other men, he couldn’t bear the thought. In this regard, Li Yifei had to admit he was selfish.
