Female Novel
Chapter 32
“You were right to cripple my leg, Mr. Chu. I, Ma Jun, consider this a fair and just punishment.”
Chu Feng looked at the woman who’d fallen to her knees beside him as he demanded, “Those slapsI’ve given you, is it fair enough?”
“Fair enough, fair enough!” The woman was so scared and pale, she didn’t even dare breathe too hard.“I-I shouldn’t have driven recklessly, and forced someone else to apologise and certainly not abuse myinfluence to take revenge on you, Mr. Chu. You are being absolutely fair and you were right. I’m a cruel,nasty woman!” novelbin
Chu Feng glanced at her and said simply, “But I think your punishment isn’t serious enough.”
Ma Jun immediately rushed over at that and seized the woman by her collar, slapping her at least adozen times as he scolded, “You nasty woman, nasty woman, nasty woman!” He punctuated eachphrase with a slap, wounding her beyond all recognition.
After punishing Ma Jun and the woman, Chu Feng thought there was no point in continuing to deal withthese small fry, so he dismissed them with a wave. Ma Jun and his men, however, kept thanking him asthey were still shaken. After all, if this big shot could send their province-level benefactor to jail, then itwas truly a blessing that they escaped alive.
In the meantime, Ma Sanyuan also made several calls as if he was attempting to beg for Chu Feng’smercy on his nephew’s behalf. Since the matter was already resolved, though, Chu Feng couldn’t bebothered and sent the calls straight to voicemail. Eventually, Ma Sanyuan got the hint as well andstopped calling.
Just then, Chu Feng received a call from Yun Muqing, who clearly sounded anxious and worried, “Areyou alright, Chu Feng? I’ve already called the cops, the backup will be there soon.”
Chu Feng’s heart warmed instantly. “It’s alright, I’ve resolved the matter now. Where are you? I’ll cometo you?” After that, he easily found Yun Muqing and Duo Duo at a cafe using the address she sent.
The moment they met, Yun Muqing worriedly checked Chu Feng for injuries. “Are you alright, ChuFeng? Did they hurt you?” She’d seen Chu Feng’s fighting skills before, but Ma Jun’s posse numberedin the dozens so how could Chu Feng have held his own against so many people? That was why shefelt so guilty and worried, so much so that she called the cops after leaving with her daughter, but shefelt relieved now that she could see Chu Feng got away without a scratch.
Chu smiled and said dismissively, “I have connections within the Chamber. All it took to fix things was asingle call, so I didn’t even have to lift a finger.” He didn’t want Yun Muqing’s peaceful life to bedisrupted, so he was fine with handling some things all on his own.
“That’s good, that’s good.” Yun Muqing breathed a sigh of relief, the worry on her pretty face nowreplaced with a blooming smile; if something had really happened to Chu Feng, she would never haveforgiven herself for ‘retreating from the battle’.
“Thank you so much for helping us, Chu Feng. If it weren’t for you, I really wouldn’t have known what todo.” Yun Muqing’s eyes were shining with gratitude, among other emotions as she bit her rosy lips;from chasing Yun Tao away the previous day to saving Duo Duo’s life from that woman and theChamber’s wrath today, this strange man’s help made her feel safe. But try as she might, she couldn’tput a name to what she was feeling.
“There is no need to say ‘thank you’ between you and me. Not now, not ever.” Chu Feng calmly replied.
When he met Yun Muqing’s astonished gaze, he thought internally, I owe you too much as a husband,too much to repay in this lifetime, at any rate. “Come on, I’ll send you both home.” Chu Feng took herluggage from her hands and summoned a cab; Luo Gang had been tailing them the whole way, but aluxury car worth millions of dollars would have been too conspicuous, and that would certainly causedisruption to Yun Muqing’s peaceful life.
The whole ride was spent in silence. Beside Chu Feng, Yun Muqing quietly stared at the man withtwinkling eyes. He was a man of few words, a little aloof, straight-backed even while resting, andexceptionally blessed both in appearance and in combat. A mysterious aura emanated from him, likethe clouds surrounding the mountain peaks that penetrated the skies.
