Chapter 658: Execution
Chapter 659: Mistake
A dying struggle.
But Xia Feng. He simply enjoyed seeing Miss Mu struggle like this.
Although it was a bit perverted, who could blame him. Miss Mu’s struggling appearance was so cute? Xia Feng’s malicious hobby soared infinitely.
Mu Qingtong didn’t know what Xia Feng was thinking, but seeing the slight curl of his lips, she could guess that this guy was indulging in his own fantasies, thinking that he had already won.
If Mr. Xia had a tail, it would be wagging to the heavens right now.
Smug!
“Isn’t this enough, Miss Mu?” Xia Feng truly felt that he had won and could trample the Evil Witch under his feet. “You admit you like me! And you said it three times!”
“Like.”
The silver-haired woman leaned forward, her beautiful eyes closing in. “The definition of this word is broad, it can be friendship, family, or master-servant affection, any of them.”
As she spoke, she slowly raised her head again, straightened her slender waist and back, and looked down with a cool, indifferent tone.
“So, Mr. Xia, as your future master, I am very satisfied with you, my servant. I like you, is there a problem?”
“?” No, Miss Mu, how did you manage to expand the seven words ‘Mr. Xia, I like you’ into so many words.
Xia Feng raised an eyebrow, “So, Miss Mu, are you saying that when you confessed to me back then, you accidentally shortened your statement, and it ended up being these seven words, thus causing my misunderstanding?”
Mu Qingtong nodded faintly.
“Heh heh~”
“What are you chuckling about?”
“Heh heh~”
Mr. Xia’s gaze was full of amusement and disdain. His dark eyes stared at her.
Mu Qingtong slowly narrowed her alluring golden eyes, a cold light flashing in her eyes. She had to admit, the more arrogant Mr. Xia became, the more fun it would be when he acted like a well-behaved dog and stuck out his tongue at her.
“Miss Mu, I just love how you stubbornly refuse to admit it.”
Xia Feng was not intimidated at all. He arrogantly patted her slightly cooler, hot face again. “If that’s the case, do you dare to use the ‘Jade of Non-Love’ to test your emotional state?”
“En?” Mu Qingtong immediately understood Xia Feng’s meaning.
After the earlier test with the Jade of Non-Love, she had also thought of a better way to use it.
It was still a process of elimination, but the question could be rephrased.
As she was contemplating, Xia Feng had already raised the memory cluster in his palm towards her.
Mu Qingtong seemed to have thought of something, her eyelids lifted, her gaze in her eyes was unreserved, and she also raised the memory cluster in her palm, aligning it with Mr. Xia’s.
Instantly, their ‘Sea of Memory’ linked and merged into one. The Jade of Non-Love, which was originally acting on Mu Qingtong’s Sea of Memory, also acted on Xia Feng.
In the laboratory image on the right, the black-dressed woman standing in front of the glass high pedestal had her eyes light up with a golden glow, and she slowly turned her head to look at the two people on the sofa.
Xia Feng smiled slightly, “Miss Mu, does ‘friendship’ account for the largest proportion of your feelings for Xia Feng?”
The black-dressed woman’s eye sockets flickered with golden light, and she slowly shook her head.
“Miss Mu, does ‘family affection’ account for the largest proportion of your feelings for Xia Feng?”
The black-dressed woman shook her head again.
“…Comradeship?”
She shook her head. “Unrequited love? Friends with benefits? Teacher-student? Enemies? Master-servant…” Xia Feng asked about fifty kinds of emotional relationships, normal, unconventional, and bizarre – everything he could think of.
The black-dressed woman shook her head to all of them.
“Miss Mu, what else do you have to argue about now?”
Xia Feng gently brushed the silver threads sticking to Mu Qingtong’s lips behind her ear with his fingertips, and chuckled, “None of them are the answer. Even the ridiculous ‘master-servant affection’ excuse you just blurted out is not the largest proportion. Doesn’t that mean there’s only one last emotion that cannot be determined by the ‘Jade of Non-Love’?”
Xia Feng smiled, his fingertips sliding to her slightly pursed, crystal-red lips. “Your feelings of love for me, am I right, Miss Mu?”
His fingertips felt like they were carrying fine electric currents, touching her lower lip, and flowing into her throat and along her curves. Mu Qingtong tilted her delicate chin back, her shoulders trembled slightly, her round legs under her skirt tensed, and a sense of humiliation surged in her heart, as if she were Mr. Xia’s noble pet cat.
Her beautiful eyes turned cold, and she slapped Xia Feng’s hand away, shaking her head and saying softly, “You’re wrong.”
“Oh? Where am I wrong?” Xia Feng wanted to see what other excuses she could come up with.
Mu Qingtong’s golden eyes were calm. “Mr. Xia, I admit, I do like you.”
“?” Xia Feng’s black eyes widened involuntarily.
Mu Qingtong placed her hands on Xia Feng’s shoulders, her graceful curves pressing against him. Her beautiful eyes were serene, and she said from a high position with indifference, “But this liking is a surprise and joy that arises when, on a journey to seek a strong individual, I unexpectedly discover a kindred spirit who suits my taste. And after experiencing certain things together, I gradually developed a fondness for this kindred spirit.
!
And this fondness is the liking for a kindred spirit—”
A liking for a kindred spirit? Xia Feng’s brows furrowed.
“Mr. Xia, you should understand that for beings like us, the words defined by the secular world can no longer encompass the emotions between us.”
Mu Qingtong’s small face was expressionless. “This is a ‘kindred spirit affection’ that is different from romantic love, family affection, friendship, or even possessiveness. I, in my name, will refer to it as ‘Tong Qing’.”
“Tong Qing?” Xia Feng found it incredible because he also felt that his feelings for Miss Mu were very special. Back in Nightmare River, he had secretly named it ‘Tong Qing’.
Xia Feng’s composite special feelings for Mu Qingtong, abbreviated as ‘Tong Qing’.
It made perfect sense.
But he didn’t expect that Miss Mu would also call her fabricated emotion designed to fool him ‘Tong Qing’.
Heh~ What a clumsy excuse!
“So, Miss Mu, can you explain the meaning of your ‘Tong Qing’?”
“Mu Qingtong’s composite special feelings for Xia Feng, abbreviated as ‘Tong Qing’.”
“?”
Plagiarism! This is blatant plagiarism!
Just changing the order of the names doesn’t mean I can’t tell, you know! Xia Feng was furious in his heart, and his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.
“The Jade of Non-Love cannot determine ‘romantic love’, but it also cannot detect ‘kindred spirit affection that does not exist in the world but exists because of us’. So, Mr. Xia, do you understand?”
Mu Qingtong said convincingly, casually pinching Xia Feng’s cheek, looking down and smiling lightly, “My so-called liking for you is just kindred spirit affection. It’s like if there were only two humans left in the world, they would cherish each other to dispel their loneliness, and for the continuation of their race, they would naturally not hesitate to reproduce.”
Xia Feng: “…”
As expected of you, Miss Mu, you can even spin this around?
He was so angry he almost vomited blood. He opened his mouth, about to question and ridicule Miss Mu’s another clumsy lie, that there was no such thing as ‘kindred spirit affection’ in this world.
But in the next second—
He suddenly realized that perhaps there really was ‘kindred spirit affection’ in this world, after all, wasn’t his own feeling for Miss Mu like this?
Thinking of this, for a moment, Xia Feng didn’t know whether he should refute it.
Questioning Miss Mu was equivalent to questioning himself!
He was blocked!
