Chapter 015: Killing Intent at the Cinema
After checking the task issued by the manual, Lin Feng felt somewhat embarrassed, but at the same time, an inexplicable excitement and restlessness arose in his heart.
It was true that he had developed considerable affection for Bai Yichen, but Bai Yichen was like an unripe apple, while the ice goddess was like a mature honey peach. In terms of direct attraction, a mature beauty like the ice goddess—whether it was her full, swelling chest or her round, perky buttocks—held enormous temptation for Lin Feng.
Thinking that the task was actually to kiss her bosom, Lin Feng's heartbeat accelerated.
Subconsciously glancing at the ice goddess's chest, he saw she was wearing a black knit sweater. The form-fitting garment perfectly outlined her upper body's flawless curves. The pair of breasts at her chest were round and firm, stretching the tight sweater into a perfect M-shaped curve that stirred the imagination.
With just one glance, Lin Feng could tell hers were much larger than Tian Mengqian's.
What would it feel like to actually kiss them?
Lin Feng imagined her chest exposed before him, and immediately felt a reaction below. His gaze also revealed a brief moment of distraction.
At that very moment, the ice goddess turned her head and glanced at Lin Feng.
Yes, with just that calm glance, Lin Feng felt as if he had been locked onto by an invisible aura. The temperature around him seemed to instantly drop to freezing point. The ice goddess before him, in this moment, seemed to become an unsheathed sword that could take his life in an instant.
However, this feeling was quickly dispelled.
The ice goddess glared at Lin Feng with a warning look, then turned her head back to focus on driving.
Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief. He was certain his earlier feeling wasn't an illusion. This ice goddess before him was definitely not as delicate as her appearance suggested.
No wonder kissing her bosom was a Grade-C Mission.
Any task triggered by the Peach Blossom Manual would be related to women—this was beyond doubt.
Lin Feng knew that the manual's original intention was for him to progress step by step, working to win the hearts of women in order to complete tasks. After winning their hearts, completing the tasks would come naturally. But if he didn't progress gradually, some tasks might have serious consequences when completed.
The higher the task level, the more severe the consequences.
For example, the Grade-C Mission the manual had just triggered—kissing her bosom. If he tried to kiss her bosom without first winning her heart, the next second would probably see his head rolling, right?
He was still a student. Was it realistic to win her heart?
The troublesome thing was that tasks triggered by the Peach Blossom Manual couldn't stack. After the manual triggered a task, if Lin Feng didn't complete it, it wouldn't trigger the next task. In other words, if Lin Feng failed to complete any task triggered by the Peach Blossom Manual, he would never again be able to earn Peach Blossom Points by completing tasks.
Without Peach Blossom Points, there would be no bright future!
Lin Feng felt that since his life was borrowed anyway, there was no reason to be timid. If a suitable opportunity arose, he would definitely complete the task!
As for the consequences after completing the task?
Lin Feng didn't think about it further.
At the entrance of Imperial View Manor, Lin Feng picked up Bai Yichen.
Although he was mentally prepared, seeing Bai Yichen at the entrance of Imperial View Manor still stirred Lin Feng's emotions.
Lin Feng had heard of Imperial View Manor. It was the largest manor in the entire city, bar none. Covering tens of thousands of square meters, it had picturesque scenery inside, with villas arranged in an orderly fashion. There were several parking lots with countless parking spaces, and even several private helicopter pads.
"I originally wanted to go to the school gate myself, but something came up at home, so I didn't come to pick you up. You're not angry, are you?" After getting in the car, Bai Yichen smiled apologetically at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng smiled and said, "Of course not. After all, I'm just a shield. I know what's what."
Not expecting Lin Feng to be so direct, Bai Yichen was momentarily stunned. She looked at Lin Feng with interest and said, "Are you really that lacking in confidence?"
"I'm just stating a fact. It has nothing to do with confidence."
"Is that so?" Bai Yichen smiled sweetly. Even when smiling, her expression was so pure. "I looked into your background. By all accounts, you shouldn't have any secrets, but some of your performances are quite surprising."
"Oh? I don't think so."
"You got a perfect score on this math test, didn't you?" Bai Yichen took out the perfect-score test paper the math teacher had given her earlier. "I've looked it over and benefited greatly. I'm returning it to you now."
Lin Feng was somewhat surprised. Taking the test paper and looking at it, he immediately smiled and said, "There's not even a name on it. How can you be sure it's mine? Besides, do I look like someone who could get a perfect score?"
Bai Yichen turned her head and carefully examined Lin Feng, then shook her head. "No, but I know this test paper is yours. Moreover, I asked top math students and even math professors. They unanimously agreed that not only could high school students not answer the test so perfectly, even they couldn't. If they could only use high school-level knowledge to solve the problems, they weren't even confident they could get a perfect score."
At this point, Lin Feng would no longer naively think Bai Yichen was just an ordinary rich girl. To avoid making things worse, Lin Feng simply stopped explaining.
Bai Yichen also didn't intend to get to the bottom of it.
Throughout the journey, neither of them spoke again.
However, when they arrived at the cinema, just as they were about to get out of the car, Bai Yichen suddenly turned around. Looking at Lin Feng with somewhat mischievous eyes, she said, "How did you come to practice Virgin Kung Fu?"
Bai Yichen didn't seem to expect Lin Feng to give her an answer. After asking, without waiting for Lin Feng to speak, she turned and gracefully got out of the car.
Virgin Kung Fu?
Lin Feng was dumbfounded. When did he practice Virgin Kung Fu?
Although Bai Yichen entered the ticket hall first, it was Lin Feng who bought the movie tickets. Lin Feng knew Bai Yichen wasn't short of this money—she was kindly saving face for him.
After purchasing three movie tickets, the three of them waited a while before entering the theater.
Lin Feng had bought the tickets from a self-service machine. What puzzled Lin Feng was that from the self-service machine's display, the showing was almost sold out, so why were fewer than a third of the seats filled even though the movie was about to start?
He just felt something was off, but Lin Feng didn't think deeply about this question.
Before the movie officially started, advertisements were playing on the big screen.
After waiting about two minutes, when the movie officially began, the ice goddess suddenly stood up, pulled Bai Yichen's hand, and said, "Yichen, let's go."
"Hehe, better not leave, don't you think?" At that moment, accompanied by a sinister voice, people in the theater began standing up one after another.
Lin Feng was confused and looked around.
Borrowing a flash of light from the screen, Lin Feng discovered that of the thirty or forty people in the theater, more than half had stood up, their gazes locked firmly on the ice goddess and Bai Yichen. Some others looked on with panicked, uneasy expressions at the unfolding situation, and a few were already quietly slipping toward the exit.
A man in black clothes emerged from a dark corner, holding a long blade that gleamed coldly, blocking the only path to the emergency exit.
"This..." Lin Feng looked at Bai Yichen with questioning eyes.
Bai Yichen looked at Lin Feng apologetically, then closed her eyes in meditation.
Lin Feng discovered that at some point, Bai Yichen and the ice goddess had positioned themselves back-to-back. In the ice goddess's hand was a sword about a meter long, thin as a cicada's wing.
"Morning Serenity, Descending Geese; Snow Dance, City in Awe. Seeing you today, your reputations are well-deserved! Bai Xuewu, if you obediently surrender and become my woman, I won't kill you. How about it?"
"You're dreaming..."
Instinct told Lin Feng this wasn't a movie being filmed.
They were targeting the ice goddess and Bai Yichen, but the city gate fire had implicated him, an innocent fish in the pond.
Lin Feng wanted to cry but had no tears.
He had lived nine lives and nearly remained a virgin for nine lives, which finally prompted the Old Man Under the Moon to give him the Peach Blossom Manual. But before he could use the manual to achieve great things, was it all going to end here?
Lin Feng was unwilling!
