Chapter 160

Chapter 160

“Stinky Feng, are you, are you asleep?”

“No, you’re not asleep either?”

“Uh, I can’t sleep.”

“Me neither...”

An awkward atmosphere fell over the tent again.

Yi Feng wanted to break this awkward atmosphere, reaching out to hold Gu Muxi’s hand.

“Stinky Feng, no! I, I’m not ready yet! You can’t!”

Gu Muxi hastily said as if reflexively.

Yi Feng: “......”

I didn’t even want to do anything, where did this girl’s mind go?

To soothe her nervousness, Yi Feng patted her hand, smiling, “Don’t be nervous, just act as usual.”

“I also know you’re not mentally prepared yet, take it slow.”

This nervousness after physical contact during the dating period is called dating anxiety, which is scientifically based.

Yi Feng was very patient, having reached first and second base, how far could a home run be?

But rushing things could easily make Gu Muxi feel uncomfortable.

Gu Muxi, having been comforted, seemed to relax a lot, breathing much more smoothly.

“Stinky Feng, sorry...”

“It’s okay, I don’t mind, let’s go to sleep early.”

In the darkness, the two lay quietly, slowly falling asleep to the sounds of insects and birds outside.

The next morning, sunlight shone through the tent, lighting up the interior.

Yi Feng was awakened by the glaring sunlight, opening his eyes but feeling his left half numb, unable to move due to something pressing on him.

Turning his head, he saw Gu Muxi snuggled into his embrace, one hand and one foot resting on him, like a cute little cat.

Gu Muxi seemed to be having a sweet dream, smiling silly, then smacking her lips, her head rubbing against him, continuing to sleep.

“This girl...” Yi Feng took a deep breath, trying hard to control his fifth limb.

But Gu Muxi’s foot rubbed against him again.

“Hisss!”

“Gu Muxi, don’t test the old cadre like this!”

Yi Feng gasped.

“Hm? What’s up? Is it morning?” Gu Muxi mumbled, her long eyelashes trembling, about to wake up.

She slowly opened her eyes, rubbing her bleary eyes, “Morning, Stinky Feng.”

“Uh, morning, Little Xixi.” Yi Feng chuckled awkwardly.

“Little Xixi? Hehe...” Gu Muxi giggled, then stretched lazily.

“Stinky Feng, why didn’t you remove the tent pole when you set up the tent? It poked me all night.”

Gu Muxi turned over, her hands and feet leaving Yi Feng’s body.

Yi Feng hurriedly pulled up the blanket, awkwardly saying, “Uh, really, I might have forgotten.”

“I’m going to the market to buy some groceries, I’ll make you sweet and sour ribs tonight.” Meng Xiaoyun smiled.

Yi Feng forced a smile, “Mom...that’s what Gu Muxi likes to eat, right?”

“Is it? Isn’t that what you like to eat? Did I remember wrong?” Meng Xiaoyun shook her head, then went downstairs.

Yi Feng slapped his forehead, helplessly saying, “Mom really dotes on Gu Muxi!”

“But that’s good, she probably won’t oppose it, so that’s good news.”

Midnight, twelve o’clock.

In the Changqing Road commercial street, empty and quiet, only the Xingye Computer Store was still open.

At the store’s entrance, Zhao Xingye and Gao Hongxing were drinking, with four bottles of erguotou and scattered beer bottles on the ground.

“Burp~ Boss, you have to, have to think of, of a way!”

“We haven’t had a single order in almost a week, if this continues, we’re definitely going bankrupt!” Gao Hongxing, red-faced and drunk, slurred.

This past week, whether new or old customers, as soon as they saw Xifeng Electronics across the street, they all went over there.

Xifeng Electronics had also plastered the entire street with their opening promotional ads, offering significant discounts.

Since Xifeng Electronics moved in, Xingye Computer Store hadn’t made a single sale.

Zhao Xingye’s chubby face was also flushed from drinking, clearly drunk.

“Smack!” He slapped the table, cursing, “It’s all, all that Yi Feng’s fault!”

“Damn it, he’s deliberately opposing me! Fuck!”

“CTMD, sometimes I really want to kill him!”

Zhao Xingye cursed and gulped down another shot of liquor.

Most of his cash flow had been tied up in stock, and now that he couldn’t sell anything, he wasn’t making money, facing daily losses from wages and rent. At home, his wife was spending money like water. If this continued, with more expenses and no income, they would truly be bankrupt in less than three months!

Gao Hongxing, with blurred vision, also banged the table and shouted, “Right, I also want, I want to smash their store, burn it! Then we would have business!”

After saying this, Gao Hongxing collapsed on the table, completely drunk.

But this sentence, like a key, unlocked the madness and darkness in Zhao Xingye’s heart.

“Smash it, burn it...right, right!”

Zhao Xingye, already seven or eight drinks in, under the influence of alcohol, had a crazy, evil thought rise in his mind.

As the saying goes, alcohol strengthens the cowardly, and even the smartest people can become irrational under its influence.

Yes, burn down Xifeng Electronics!

Once this thought emerged, he couldn’t stop it.

Ten minutes later, Zhao Xingye, carrying a bottle of gasoline, staggered to the front of Xifeng Electronics.

“Ha ha! Burn, burn you!”

Zhao Xingye, with a face full of madness, splashed gasoline at the entrance of Xifeng Electronics, then after doing so, he took out a piece of paper, pulled out a lighter, lit the paper, and threw it into the gasoline.

“Boom!”

Instantly, flames surged, engulfing Xifeng Electronics in a massive fire!
