Hedonist Sovereign

chapter-237
Qin Feng didn't know what was wrong with Zhao Ling Xian today. He hadn't expected she would tear apart the present he personally gave to her right in front of him and harshly throw the beads at his face.
Zhao Ling Xian didn't know the true origin of these beads—Qin Feng spent 500 Hedonist Points to buy them in the Hedonist Sovereign System. Qin Feng was currently in a Hedonist Point deficit, so for Qin Feng to shell out 500 Hedonist Points to buy this Soul-Cleansing Necklace during this time showed that Zhao Ling Xian's place in Qin Feng's heart was irreplaceable!
Qin Feng was a bit sad because Zhao Ling Xian changed. She'd become foreign and cold. She was no longer the cute, proud, and lovable little princess who'd clung to Qin Feng. She was about to become a complete stranger as they slowly drifted further apart…
"Ling Xian, these beads…" Qin Feng wanted to say something else, but once he opened his mouth, Zhao Ling Xian interrupted him.
"Don't call me 'Ling Xian.' I don't care for your beads. Give them to another woman; maybe once they get your present, they'll go to bed with you… But I don't want to, and I'm not that kind of woman."Qin Feng, hurry up and leave!"
Zhao Ling Xian became increasingly agitated. Her breath quickened like she was about to suffocate.
Zhang Ling Xian scared Qin Feng. He knew this girl was weak and sickly since she was young. He didn't dare continue to stay. He hurriedly ran out of Zhao Ling Xian's bedroom and arrived at the first floor lobby.
Right after Qin Feng arrived downstairs, Zhao Da Hai called out to him, "Qin Feng, why are you back down here so quickly? I heard some yelling coming from upstairs; have you fought with Ling Xian again?"
Zhao Da Hai was used to Qin Feng and Zhao Ling Xiao fighting. The two of them had fought since they were young, and were considered quarrelsome lovers.
"Uncle Zhao, Ling Xian's emotions are very unstable today. Has she been in a bad mood lately?" Qin Feng sat beside Zhao Da Hai and wanted to understand Zhao Ling Xian's recent condition.
"Ai… this girl Ling Xian has a really bad temper nowadays. I daren't provoke her. She even yells and shouts at her old man, much less you." Zhao Da Hai sighed and his expression became heavy."Uncle Zhao, why didn't you tell me such an important thing before I went upstairs?" Qin Feng had a look of helplessness.
Zhao Da Hai was all too familiar with Zhao Ling Xian's princess temper. When this girl got mad and threw a tantrum, it was completely unrivalled. Not only did strangers have to stay away, even people she was familiar with didn't dare provoke her.
Qin Feng hadn't realized he'd bump into the muzzle of a gun. He had just arrived when Zhao Ling Xian's emotions were unstable, so maybe this girl was on her period… But Qin Feng shook his head when he thought of that glimpse of Zhao Ling Xian's figure he got previously.
He mumbled to himself, "No, no, Little Sister Ling Xian was really clean there. There weren't any blood stains."
"If I told you Ling Xian's been in a really bad temper recently, would you have gone upstairs to look for her?" Zhao Da Hai smiled as he asked Qin Feng.
"Certainly not!" Qin Feng replied resolutely.
"Exactly." An amused smile crossed Zhao Da Hai's face. He said, "If I told you in advance, you won't have gone. And if you didn't go, how would Ling Xian find someone to vent her anger?
"If she doesn't find vent someone to, it would be bad for her to keep bottling up all of her unhappiness. Qin Feng… Uncle Zhao is very satisfied with your performance!"
Qin Feng's eyes darkened. "It feels like you used your godson as cannon fodder, Uncle Zhao!"
"Haha, how can you put it that way?" Zhao Da Hai laughed with a bit of awkwardness. "You think Uncle Zhao doesn't know why you come looking for our Ling Xian, brat? You just want to take advantage of her.
"You and Ling Xian grew up together, so who knows how many times my precious daughter was taken advantage of. So now that Ling Xian's in a bad mood, you should be the first one to volunteer himself as a punching bag," Zhao Da Hai said matter-of-factly.
Qin Feng shriveled up because Uncle Zhao was absolutely right. He didn't even have latitude to retort.
"Qin Feng, there's something I must tell you." Zhao Da Hai retracted his smile and suddenly became serious.
"Tell me, Uncle Zhao." Qin Feng could see from Zhao Da Hai's expression that this was a very important matter.
The two sat up straight and looked at one another solemnly.
Zhao Da Hai organized his words and spoke lowly, "Do you still remember the Capital's Liang family? Two men came from their house previously: Liang Sheng and Liang Zhen Wei. They came to our Zhao family to propose marriage.
"However, no further news came from either of them and the marriage proposal fell through… Most recently, the Liang family's eldest son, Liang Yu, came to propose marriage. The Liang family seems to place a lot of value on this marriage; it's already their third time to pay a visit. Liang Yu is coming in a bit. I think he's visiting to set an auspicious date for the marriage."
Zhao Da Hai gave a brief summary of recent events for Qin Feng. After Qin Feng heard it, his expression suddenly turned cold.
Qin Feng naturally knew about Liang Sheng and Liang Zhen Wei, who had previously come to propose.
And there was no news of these two people afterward because Qin Feng killed them. When Qin Feng found out these two people came to the Zhao residence to propose marriage to Zhao Ling Xian, a fierce voice within him had rung out in opposition.
Qin Feng wasn't clear on how he felt about Zhao Ling Xian. There was a bit of the ambiguity between lovers, but Qin Feng felt it was more like the love between siblings.
