Chapter 7 Absurd Thoughts

"Creak!"

Liu Feifei opened the wardrobe door, ready to reach for her clothes.

But what she didn't know was that she just happened to grab hold of Wang Xiaoshuai's soft ribs.

"Whoosh!"

Liu Feifei was startled and then saw a perplexed Wang Xiaoshuai staring intently at her.

"Ah..."

Her instinct was to scream, but she choked the words back at the last moment.

By then, she had realized what she was holding.

Her pretty face flushed with redness, she said with a mix of embarrassment and anger, "Brother Xiaoshuai, when... when did you hide in someone's wardrobe?"

"You... you're still looking, close your eyes now!"

Wang Xiaoshuai finally snapped out of it, gave Liu Feifei a sharp glance, and then reluctantly closed his eyes.

However, thinking back to the sensation of Liu Feifei grabbing him just a moment ago, his heart was secretly thrilled.

Damn it, the girl's hand was so soft and warm, and she was quite curvy, if only he could...

Once she was certain Wang Xiaoshuai wasn't peeking anymore, Liu Feifei quickly found an outfit in the wardrobe and changed into it.

Afterward, she said in a low voice, "It's okay now, Brother Xiaoshuai, you... you can open your eyes."

After a pause, she continued, "Do you like me or something? Just say it if you do, why hide in a wardrobe on such a hot day?"

"Also, you must have overheard what I said outside earlier, you know I have feelings for you, right?"

Seeing Liu Feifei's face turn red as she spoke, Wang Xiaoshuai almost wanted to kiss her right then and there.

He held back the urge stirring at the bottom of his heart, crawled out of the wardrobe, and said with a chuckle, "Feifei, I only just found out you have feelings for me too, but I'm hardly worthy of you..."

"Ah! I can't talk to you right now, I have to hurry and buy a roast chicken to take back, otherwise my grandpa is going to beat me."

Wang Xiaoshuai said as he was about to leave, but just as he took a step, Liu Feifei grabbed him.

"Wait, you came to buy a roast chicken? Then why were you hiding in my wardrobe..."

"I get it! You must have been messing around with my sister just now, the two of you are up to something!"

Liu Feifei declared with certainty.

Wang Xiaoshuai felt his heart skip a beat, sensing the scrutinizing gaze from Liu Feifei, he explained with an awkward smile, "No, Feifei, actually today I was forced by grandpa to meet with a young widow from Chentang Village. I didn't want to, so I ran to see Sister Shishi to think of a way to change my grandpa's mind."

"You two could have talked about this outside, why did you have to come to my room? And why were you hiding in my wardrobe? You're obviously lying to me!"

Liu Feifei stared at Wang Xiaoshuai intently; she felt that there was more to this story.

Connecting this to what her sister and dad had said earlier, she could vaguely guess that her sister might also have feelings for Wang Xiaoshuai.

"I'm not lying to you! How was I to know Sister Shishi would pull me into your room?"

"We hadn't even started talking when you and Secretary Liu came back, Sister Shishi got worried about being misunderstood and told me to hide in the wardrobe first, but then she just went out and didn't come back..."

"Feifei, I really don't have time to explain anymore, see if your dad has left. Don't worry, I'll make sure to explain it to you properly later..."

Wang Xiaoshuai certainly wasn't about to foolishly admit to anything between himself and Liu Shishi, and tried to push Liu Feifei out of the room as he spoke.

"Really?" Liu Feifei remained unmoved, looking skeptically at Wang Xiaoshuai and asked.

"Of course, it's true. You don't actually think your sister would fall for me, do you? Stop kidding, you know what my family situation is like."

"Pfft, stop trying to pull the wool over my eyes. I bet there's something going on between you two, otherwise, why would my sister always speak up for you earlier and try to set us up?"

"I saw it very clearly, when my sister came out of the room, her clothes were all wrinkled. Do you really think I'm a fool?"

"Ah? Is... is that so? I really didn't notice that."

Wang Xiaoshuai's face stiffened, he scratched his head and forced a laugh, "Look, Feifei, can you just let me out? You're not really planning on keeping me here, are you?"

After saying this, a ridiculous idea suddenly sprang up in his mind.

If he really slept with both of Liu Degui's precious daughters, would that old geezer die of anger?

Just the thought of that scenario made Wang Xiaoshuai's lips curl up into a sly smile...
