The fifth update,

...

Someone was betrayed!

Qin Fang, in order to save himself, very disgracefully betrayed someone.

And this person was none other than Scarface Chen Xiaochao, who Tang Feifei also knew.

Of course, it wasn't really a betrayal, it's just that Qin Fang shifted the whole process of how he got to know Li Dong onto Scarface, even deliberately portraying Scarface as a very meaningful good friend.

"So that's how it is! We can't blame Scarface for this, instead, we should thank him. How about we invite him to dinner next time we see him?"

Tang Feifei was very sensible and, after learning the full story, not only did she not blame Scarface but even appeared to be very grateful.

Obviously, this was the truth. If Scarface had not introduced Qin Fang to Lord Hu and Li Dong, then today, Qin Fang would either have had to take on a bunch of thugs by himself and lay them all flat, or he would have had to honestly pay up and settle the matter.

But these thugs were all rascals.

Having been beaten, they would, for the sake of face, bring even more people to cause trouble. Even if they couldn't win, they might take advantage of Qin Fang's absence to smash up his store.

Paying up would be even more troublesome, who knows how many groups would come to collect protection fees in one day. One couldn't possibly expect Brother Beard, that sort of thug, to actually do his job after taking the money. He was just saying it offhandedly; otherwise, he wouldn't have caused trouble.

In this light, Qin Fang's acquaintance with Li Dong was not a bad thing but actually a good one, as it could reduce a lot of trouble for them.

In fact, Tang Feifei had another unspoken reason in her heart, and that was Qin Fang's and Li Feng's grudge growing deeper. If Qin Fang had the backing of someone like Li Dong, at least in the university town area, his safety would be somewhat assured.

"Sure, why not! Whatever you say!"

Qin Fang naturally agreed without hesitation. Right now, he didn't care about the cost of a meal; as long as Tang Feifei's anger was appeased, that was all that mattered.

"You… still haven't let go!"

It was only then that Tang Feifei remembered she was still being held in Qin Fang's arms. Her pretty face turned even redder, and she struggled slightly, speaking in a coquettish manner, while also not forgetting to shoot Qin Fang a sanitary eye.

"I won't let go! Holding you like this is comfortable…"

"You rascal!"

In the past, Qin Fang felt inferior because his circumstances were bad, thinking he was not worthy of Tang Feifei. Thus, he always appeared quite self-conscious, and even though they got along well, he tried not to interact with Tang Feifei too much.

But now, Qin Fang felt a sudden awakening. His family background might not compare to the Tang Family, but both he and Tang Feifei had feelings for each other, and all that was needed was to break through that paper window.

And that accidental million worth that came his way made Qin Fang feel like a nouveau riche, but it also unearthed the confidence deep within him.

That million wasn't his capital; he never regarded it as such. But Qin Fang was now much more confident because he knew he was excellent.

Besides, he also had this miraculous superpower, complete with a variety of skills.

Even now, he might still not be worthy of Tang Feifei, but Qin Fang was confident that in the near future, he would be qualified to marry Tang Feifei.

Qin Fang regained his confidence, and with today's surprise, it completely stirred the emotions he had buried deep in his heart, so Qin Fang gritted his teeth and gave into the impulse to strongly embrace Tang Feifei.

He was gambling!

He was gambling that Tang Feifei had feelings for him too!

He was gambling that he could be successful!

Tang Feifei struggled in his arms but was becoming increasingly weak. Soon, she gave up struggling and even carefully leaned her head slightly closer to Qin Fang's chest.

Smelling Tang Feifei's hair, which exuded a faint fragrance, Qin Fang's heart, in this moment, was firmer than ever before. For Tang Feifei, for his own future, he had the confidence to stand out!

"Let go quickly, someone else might see!"

They were in Fang Feixue's shop, with the doors wide open. From time to time, people would pass by, and seeing a young couple embracing like this, they would inevitably take a second look.

This only made Tang Feifei feel even more bashful. She had grown up so big and never been held by a man other than her father; even her brother Tang Cheng had never had such a privilege.

But for some reason, as she quietly rested against Qin Fang's chest and listened to his steady heartbeat, she felt an immense sense of security as if the whole world contained only the two of them.

"I don't care! I'm holding my girlfriend, what business is it of theirs! Humph…"

Qin Fang continued his rascally ways, showing no intention of letting go and in fact hugged her even tighter. Qin Fang's neck was even able to clearly feel the warmth of Tang Feifei's breath.

"What! Since when are you my boyfriend? How come I don't know about this?"

Tang Feifei's face turned red, and she huffed as she struggled even harder.

"How could it not be? Ask them, who doesn't know you're my lady boss!"

Qin Fang had really thrown caution to the wind today, having already abandoned his former reserve, he shamelessly pressed on; otherwise, he didn't know how long it would take to win his beauty!

"You..."

Tang Feifei was at a loss for words. It was true that many people at Lanyuan were aware of this matter now, though she was only one of them, "There are also rumors that Xiao Xue is the lady boss!"

However, this thought provided Tang Feifei with a brilliant idea, and she immediately threw it out there.

"That's all nonsense. Don't you know me by now? Xiao Muxue and I are just good friends..."

As for Xiao Muxue, it was definitely impossible for Qin Fang not to be moved by her, given her beauty. To say he wasn't would be unlike any normal man.

But naturally, the one Qin Fang truly liked the most was Tang Feifei, with whom he had shared both bitter and sweet times. For the sake of winning his beloved, a beauty like Xiao Muxue naturally had to be set aside.

"Who would believe you?"

Tang Feifei immediately threw Qin Fang a disdainful look, but as her eyes moved, it wasn't hard to see that she was actually very pleased. At least it had always been a nagging concern in her heart, and with Qin Fang's words, she felt reassured.

"I don't care about what others think! I just need you to believe..."

Qin Fang really channeled the spirit of a love guru today. The sweet nothings that he normally couldn't say for the life of him, flowed out one after another, causing Tang Feifei's cheeks to become even redder.

"Ew, how cheesy!"

Tang Feifei pretended to be covered in goosebumps as she made a shuddering gesture, yet she still wore a radiant smile on her face.

"Hehe, as long as you agree to be my girlfriend, I can say even cheesier things..."

Continuing to press his advantage, Qin Fang saw Tang Feifei was already moved; it seemed all that was needed was one final push for success.

"Hmm... no way!"

Tang Feifei hesitated for a moment but then suddenly changed her tune, "We've known each other for so long, and you've never pursued me before. I can't let you off that easily!"

"Oh come on, Feifei..."

Qin Fang's face instantly turned as sour as a bitter gourd. He had gone all-in today; at any other time, he might not have had the courage to do this.

Seeing Qin Fang's bitter gourd expression, Tang Feifei seemed a bit reluctant to be so harsh. "Alright then, I can agree to you being my boyfriend, but..."

"But what?"

Qin Fang urgently asked, clearly sensing Tang Feifei was yielding.

"But it's on a trial basis!"

Tang Feifei seized the moment Qin Fang was stunned to break free from his embrace, laughing as she ran away.

"Ah~~~ A trial boyfriend!!"

Qin Fang responded with a wry smile. He instinctively wanted to go after Tang Feifei, but it was already too late; she had run out the door.

"Hahaha..."

"I can't take it..."

"My stomach hurts so much from laughing!!!"

As Tang Feifei had just dashed out, Qin Fang heard such laughter ringing in his ears.

Turning his head, he saw all the younger waiters at the kitchen entrance holding their stomachs and laughing uproariously, Uncle Fang included. Clearly, they had all witnessed the entire scene.

"Nobody is allowed to laugh! Whoever laughs again will have their entire month's salary deducted..."

Qin Fang, "furious with embarrassment", immediately invoked the privileges of the boss, scolding the disloyal bunch fiercely, and although the laughter stopped, seeing their faces still flushed with holding back more laughter infuriated him even more. Throwing caution to the wind, he shouted "Feifei, wait for me!" and then left the shop.

"Hahaha~~~"

But the laughter that followed him was even louder, deepening Qin Fang's frustration. (To be continued. For more, please visit www.qidian.com. More chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!)
