They didn't know how many times they had given in to their passion. Finally, the two lay silently on the floor.
They were too tired even to breathe heavily, their eyes tightly shut, like two nude corpses.
Ren Feng was the first to react, getting up from the floor, picking up the naked Liou Rumei in his arms.
After wiping her body with a warm towel, he placed her in the warm bedding.
Ren Feng then went to prepare a pot of ginger soup, fed a bowl to Liou Rumei, finally making her feel a bit of hot energy within her body.
"Still cold?" Ren Feng gently stroked Liou Rumei's cheek.
Three days ago, when he returned to the hospital, he immediately used True Qi to awaken Liou Rumei and used acupuncture to help adjust her body.
Three days of recovery had made some improvement. However, she was not fully recovered, originally meant to continue recuperating. But once she heard about the Liou Family's memorial service, she immediately rushed to the Liou Family.
"Not cold." Liou Rumei smiled.
"Don't let anyone hit you again, regardless of who it is, and notify me before anything like this happens," Ren Feng said seriously.
Liou Rumei leaned up, staring into Ren Feng's eyes. After a long while, she burst into laughter, sweetly saying, "I love it most when my little brother uses such a domineering tone with me. It's such a bliss."
Ren Feng slapped her uplifted buttocks, saying, "I'm serious."
Liou Rumei nodded obediently, saying, "Okay, in the future, except for you, no one else can hit me."
"I'll only ever hit your butt, never your face," Ren Feng weakly defended.
Liou Rumei giggled, "I heard that something seemed to have happened in Yanjing three days ago. You didn't really do that, did you?"
"Your matters are my matters, how could I ignore them?" Ren Feng said with a smile, "This sort of thing won't happen again."
Liou Rumei stopped smiling and sighed longly, "For my sake, is it worth it?"
Ren Feng's actions three days ago were truly too crazy, and even though Liou Rumei knew about them afterward, she still felt her heart pound with fear.
He annihilated over a hundred families in Yanjing. Doing so would definitely attract the attention of the entire nation, and then the direction of this matter would become completely unpredictable. Was it truly worth it for Ren Feng to do all of this for her?
Ren Feng looked seriously at Liou Rumei, gently moving aside her falling hair: "I love you."
Liou Rumei didn't expect Ren Feng to suddenly say these three words; her expression froze, and she looked dazedly at Ren Feng.
"I love you," Ren Feng repeated.
Happiness came so suddenly, yet I wasn't prepared for it.
These words were the truest reflection of Liou Rumei's heart at this moment; she never expected to hear these three words from Ren Feng's mouth.
Unimaginable, even beyond dreams.
She clearly knew her position, whether it was the sequence of their acquaintance or the emotional foundation between them, she knew she couldn't compare to Xia Wenxue.
Therefore, she often joked in front of Ren Feng that Xia Wenxue was the main wife and she was the mistress.
And she followed the rules of the game, never overstepping, nor actively vying for anything.
She was a smart woman who could position herself correctly.
I love you!
Such a clichéd phrase, used in every novel, movie, music, drama, and real-life couples, yet it brought emotional tremors to Liou Rumei.
Because she knew, Ren Feng wasn't one to easily express emotions, always having 'love' on his lips. He's flirtatious, but not flashy; eloquent, but not fickle.
He was a man who valued reality more, whose actions were much more impressive than his words.
This was also why she liked him. Although Ren Feng had prepared surprises for her before, hearing it directly from his mouth was a first.
He was speaking from his heart, this was the truest emotion.
She cried, covering her face and sobbing.
Not from grievance or anger, but from a release of happiness.
"You little rascal, why did you say this to me? Do you have to let me die for you to be content?" Liou Rumei hugged Ren Feng's neck tightly, scolding.
"I thought of it, so I said it," Ren Feng replied with a smile, allowing Liou Rumei's tears to flow freely on him, the hot liquid seemingly able to burn his skin.
These days, she had been particularly sensitive and fragile.
Liou Rumei quickly regained her composure. She wiped the tears from her face with tissues and said, "Don't be so good to me in the future, understand?"
"Why?" Ren Feng asked with a smile.
"Because if you do, I can't find my own place," Liou Rumei said. "For someone as ruthless and sly as me, I'm not fit to hear the three words you said."
"Then it seems we're well matched. I also sometimes think of myself as ruthless, unfeeling, and cold," Ren Feng replied with a smile.
Liou Rumei blinked her beautiful eyes at Ren Feng: "But, for revenge, I don't know what extreme things I'll do in the future. It might even be very dangerous."
Ren Feng slapped her buttocks again: "Next time if you need anything, just call me directly, don't use these little tactics anymore."
"I don't want to put you in a difficult position," Liou Rumei said with a smile, "Even with trust between people, there's always a bit of buffer—are not human relationships maintained by such buffers and pretenses?"
"But you are my woman. I have the responsibility to protect you from harm," Ren Feng said. "When you go alone to trouble the Liou Family, can I really be at ease?"
Liou Rumei chuckled, saying, "Do you know why I went to the Liou Family?"
She comfortably leaned into Ren Feng's embrace: "I actually could have chosen a better method, taking advantage of the Liou Family's chaos, to acquire their stocks; waiting for their conflicts to become public, then I start selling massively to drive their stock down, and then buy in large quantities, indirectly controlling their company. I didn't need to use such extreme methods to provoke them personally."
"But humans are always emotional creatures; a 100% rational person doesn't exist," Ren Feng said, caressing Liou Rumei's cheek, "but going up to provoke, it gives you a sense of pleasure, emotionally, making you more comfortable, happiness, always builds upon the pain of enemies."
Liou Rumei giggled, "Little brother, you really understand me, but the reality is, if I hadn't done so, this war with the Liou Family would continue indefinitely, maybe even involving Qingcheng International's funds."
Ren Feng looked a bit puzzled, and Liou Rumei continued, "But the vast majority of Qingcheng International's profits come from those traditional Chinese medicine formulas you gave me. Because of them, Qingcheng International expanded into a giant within half a year. And much of that money belongs to you."
Liou Rumei looked at Ren Feng, her eyes seemingly filled with a certain radiance.
