Xu Yuyu laughed, laughing enticingly, not knowing what she was thinking.
After they finished the meal, the waiter took everything away, and Ling Zhenfei said to Xu Yuyu, "It's getting late, let's get started then."
Xu Yuyu, still smiling, said, "Alright then, let's go for the check-up."
Ling Zhenfei couldn't help but stare; Xu Yuyu was different from the rest.
Xu Yuyu had been married for several years but had no children, maintaining a perfect figure, youthful but lacking the shyness of a young girl, a feeling that was very hard to describe.
"What's the matter, Mr. Ling, what are you waiting for?" Seeing Ling Zhenfei staring, Xu Yuyu felt extremely pleased.
Ling Zhenfei then came to his senses and said, "I apologize, no offense meant," as he began to examine Xu Yuyu's body.
"Miss Xu, what are you doing?" Ling Zhenfei asked in astonishment.
"Enough, Mr. Ling, with things this way, why keep up the pretense? Isn't this what you wanted?"
Ling Zhenfei was startled, and then he understood; Xu Yuyu had misunderstood. She thought his intention was to take advantage of her, and it was his fault for not clarifying things earlier.
"I'm sorry, Miss Xu, you are completely mistaken, I truly didn't mean that."
"Hmph, you men are all the same, pretending to be virtuous. I don't even care anymore, so why do you? Or is it that you find me repulsive?" Xu Yuyu said, quite upset.
"I'm sorry, Miss Xu, that's not what I meant. But what I said earlier wasn't meant in that way at all, I genuinely just wanted to examine you, and besides, you are a married woman, I really shouldn't do such a thing."
Xu Yuyu said, "Can we not mention my husband, please? Do you think I actually have a medical condition that prevents me from having children? I'm thirty-two, Cao Qinglin is fifty-two, twenty years my senior; do you think he is capable?"
"What are you saying, are you suggesting it's your husband's issue?" "Exactly! I know it for sure. I'm young, what illness could I possibly have? I don't care if the child would be Cao Qinglin's or not, I don't love him anyway."
Ling Zhenfei was truly shocked; he had not expected Xu Yuyu to think this way.
"That's not right, you may think that way, but I can't do this, it's unethical." Even though Xu Yuyu had initiated it, Ling Zhenfei could not overcome his moral barriers.
"How can you say that, Ling Zhenfei? What is so unethical about it? Don't you think I would rather spend my life with a man like you if the situation allowed? I've never felt a woman's love since marrying Cao Qinglin."
"Now, all I want is a child. Cao Qinglin can't do it, so must I live like this forever? Moreover, I promise you, just this once and I will never bother you again. If we ever meet, I would pretend not to know you."
"Is it possible, please, Ling Zhenfei? They say a doctor should have a parent's heart, can't you use a doctor's heart to save me?"
"Even if you do get pregnant, aren't you afraid Cao Qinglin will find out?" Ling Zhenfei asked curiously.
But hearing this from Ling Zhenfei made Xu Yuyu laugh with joy, "Divine Doctor Ling, you've agreed! As long as you've agreed, I'll handle everything later and never cause you trouble."
"I haven't agreed. I was just asking. Please let me go, I need to leave." Ling Zhenfei still felt that he needed to leave; this really wasn't right.
At that moment, Xu Yuyu's face darkened, "Ling Zhenfei, if you dare to leave today, I'll immediately go out and scream that you took advantage of me."
Ling Zhenfei was stunned, "Xu Yuyu, why are you so vile?"
Xu Yuyu laughed, "I am just this vile, only vile for you."
"This is what you brought on yourself, don't blame me, see how I make you beg for mercy." Ling Zhenfei's anger flared up as well. If the opportunity was handed to him on a platter, why not take it? If he kindly refused, who knows what people might say behind his back.
"It was my own doing, come and punish me."
By the time the intense skirmish ended, Xu Yuyu had passed out, and Ling Zhenfei felt guilty. After all, whatever the reason might be, Xu Yuyu was a married woman, and this truly wasn't right.
But everything had already happened, and nothing he said would change it. Since it happened, he decided not to think about it anymore; thinking too much only invites trouble.
The next morning, Ling Zhenfei woke up early, only to find Xu Yuyu was already awake, gazing at him tenderly.
"Why are you looking at me? Is there something on my face?" Ling Zhenfei was very surprised, not that Xu Yuyu had woken up, but that he hadn't noticed when she did.
He was a Spiritual Cultivator, whose senses were many times more acute than an ordinary person's, capable of sensing even the slightest changes in his environment.
Thus, he should have noticed when the person sleeping next to him woke up, but it was strange he hadn't noticed Xu Yuyu waking up.
If someone had tried to attack him while he was asleep, he definitely would have noticed, as a Spiritual Cultivator feels environmental changes in the Northern Spiritual Energy, which is a method to guard against assassination.
If he didn't notice an attack while sleeping, it would mean he wasn't fit to be a Spiritual Cultivator.
Usually, Ling Zhenfei cultivated his soul inside the Heaven-Dropping Essence Marrow, which meant he should have noticed any movement near him.
But now that he hadn't noticed Xu Yuyu waking up, it meant either Xu Yuyu had incredibly profound Spiritual Power or she hadn't moved after waking up.
The latter was more likely since Xu Yuyu indeed didn't possess Spiritual Power and certainly wasn't a cultivation expert.
However, this reminded Ling Zhenfei to be cautious. If the woman sleeping beside him wanted to kill him, he might not notice while deeply asleep. He resolved to be more careful in the future to avoid dying at a woman's hand.
"You are truly handsome, I've been looking at you all morning, and I like you more the more I look. What should I do?" Xu Yuyu's eyes were filled with love.
"You better not be joking; if you can get up, then hurry and leave to avoid others discovering us, which wouldn't be good." Even though what had happened between them had already happened, Ling Zhenfei still felt that it wasn't something commendable, and being discovered would have a terrible impact.
"This is all your own doing at the start, so don't blame me," Ling Zhenfei said as he sat up from the bed.
"Of course, I don't blame you. Do you know how long it has been since I last enjoyed this? If Cao Qinglin could be like you, even just a tenth of what you are, why would I do this?" Xu Yuyu nestled into Ling Zhenfei's arms, appearing to revel in the moment.
Xu Yuyu truly deserved her celebrity status with a figure and beauty that put her at the apex, as countless men regarded her as the goddess of their hearts.
But it has to be said, Xu Yuyu did have a point. How much helplessness is there in the world, anyway? No one can clearly say. Xu Yuyu had the full right to enjoy life, but for fame and fortune, she had married a man much older than her, and she ought to bear all that comes with it.
