Chapter 469 - Be Careful Or You Could Wake Up With A Green Hat!
"Xie Feng, don't worry." Gu Qianxue took a step forward and gently held onto one of his arms with her relatively smaller hand. She looked into his eyes with a gentle stare and said in a tender voice, "Nothing will happen to me. I'm sure everything will be fine even if some inconveniences happen in between."
Xie Feng looked into Gu Qianxue's eyes and it took everything from him not to lean in to take her lips as she not only looked extremely beautiful and seductive but also cute like a little angel; so much so that no one would think that this girl was actually extremely naughty in private.
However, he could not do such things in public for different reasons.
First, Gu Qianxue was the daughter of the highest leader of China, and sooner or later such news would be known to everyone as it would be very difficult to hide her whereabouts from some people. Therefore, Xie Feng had to be somewhat tactful about it for the sake of not damaging Gu Qianxue's reputation or that of her family.
After all, regardless of anything else, the Gu Family was too powerful a family and there would surely be evil tongues spitting venom if they found out that Princess Gu was actually related to a guy from a normal family who didn't even have parents.
Second and also related to the first reason, everyone in Shanghai University and the surrounding area was fully aware that Xie Feng and Xie Yao were a couple; this was a fact set in stone even if there were many who were suspicious of him and his too close relationships such as his mysterious relationship with Gu Qianxue.
Definitely nothing good would come out for Gu Qianxue if the masses found out that she was fine with "being the second" let alone with her being "an intrusive home-wrecking woman".
Therefore, Xie Feng could not do as he pleased for while he did not personally care what others might think he had obligations as a man; one of which was to think first of his beloved's well being before his own.
While Gu Qianxue probably wouldn't care what others thought, the world was not a place where you could do as you pleased while ignoring the scrutiny of the masses.
"Girl, aren't you the least bit afraid?" Xie Feng sighed as he patted her head, caressing her night-black hair in the process. "We're talking about a lot of ability users. ESPERS from overseas have strange skills, some of them might even be able to slip out of my detection range."

"Hehehehe..." Gu Qianxue backed away from him with slight backward hops and her eyes curved into a crescent shape. Her chuckle spread to the surroundings thanks to the cold breeze, creating a beautiful melody in the background as she confidently said, "I'm not afraid. Not even a little bit. Because my man is the strongest in the world!"
"You..."
Xie Feng wanted to say something else but Gu Qianxue didn't give him time as she turned around nimbly and with surprising charm looked back over her shoulder waving goodbye with a bewitching smile:
"Xie Feng, Xinya, see you later!"
Shen Xinya, who had stayed silent all this time, raised her right hand and gave a wave in response to Gu Qianxue.
"This girl." Xie Feng shook his head before looking at Shen Xinya and forcing a smile, "Shall we go? I'll escort you to the principal's office first."
"Mm." Shen Xinya nodded weakly and without waiting for him she started walking first in the direction of the administrative building.
Xie Feng quickly followed her, catching up with her easily. The two were silent for the first two or three minutes and as Xie Feng watched her out of the corner of his eye he couldn't help but wonder what was going through this superstar's head.
Not only was the face of Shen Xinya practically covered in its entirety but her eyes did not let him see what her soul was feeling at all despite being the window of it.
Finally, when the target building appeared around the corner, Xie Feng couldn't help but ask, "Hey, Xinya. Are you really sure about this?"
"Mm? What do you mean?" She looked at him as if she didn't understand what he was talking about.
Xie Feng stared at her for a couple of seconds before closing his eyes for a moment and chuckling lightly.
"No, forget it." He said unwilling to continue what he was about to say.
Regardless of whether Shen Xinya was sure or not, it was too late to back out now. At the end of the day, Xie Feng was a rather mean man despite his kindness to those he loved; he could also be selfish with them at times as he was far from perfect.
Regardless of whether Shen Xinya was sure or not, she had awakened memories and feelings that Xie Feng had taken years to bury in the deepest, darkest part of his heart when she decided to show up at his house to claim a position in his life. As such, she now had to take responsibility for her actions.
The mere thought of imagining Shen Xinya in another man's embrace unconsciously caused murderous intent to flash momentarily in the eyes of Xie Feng before he quickly calmed down. Probably thanks to the effect of the Frozen Water Pearl that somehow kept his mind cooler in cases like this.
However, his change of expression did not go unnoticed from the watchful eyes of Shen Xinya.
She chuckled and began to walk towards the building in front of them while Xie Feng watched her from behind with confusion as he did not understand the reason for her chuckle. But his doubts were cleared when she stopped after taking a few steps and turned to look at him.
Shen Xinya brought her right hand to her face and with a graceful movement uncovered her features.
"Wh-" Xie Feng hurriedly looked around the immediate surroundings for people but apparently it wasn't necessary as Shen Xinya was clearly not at all naive despite her angelic appearance.
When Xie Feng turned to look at her, she was slightly leaning forward and looking at him with cunning eyes. That face capable of spellbinding the souls of any living being was looking straight at him with a playful smile and even though no sound came out of her mouth he managed to read the movement of her lips.
"You better keep this young lady happy in every way or else don't blame me if one day you wake up with a green hat waiting for you on the bed..." Xie Feng muttered with wide eyes.
"Hahaha..." Shen Xinya laughed out loud when she saw the dazed expression on Xie Feng's face and without waiting for a response from him she covered her face again and fled, disappearing beyond the doors of the building in a matter of seconds.
The corner of Xie Feng's mouth twitched like crazy and even one of his eyes began to tremble as he whispered, "This little fox.... She really won't learn to respect her husband unless I teach her a good and proper lesson."Xie Feng shook his head and an amused smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he turned around and started on his way to his own classroom. He naturally didn't take the words that Shen Xnya said to him seriously; Xie Feng had known her since she was a little girl so he knew very well what kind of personality she had.
Shen Xinya would only show her true self to those she trusted wholeheartedly or those she tried to trust, the rest would only see her perfect immortal fairy personality that she had built up over the years. With Xie Feng's knowledge of her, Shen Xinya was not only an extremely proud woman but she was also a very stubborn beauty who once she made up her mind about something never took a step back as when she made that decision she made it from the bottom of her heart after having thought about all the possible consequences.
She had definitely noticed the momentary annoyance coming from Xie Feng and thus said such words to mess with him a little and that was the limit of her intention.
"Well, I'd still better make sure to keep her happy." Xie Feng laughed out loud, causing the breath escaping from his mouth to come out in a cloud of smoke as if he was smoking due to the cold.
With his hands in his pants pockets, Xie Feng walked around the campus and encountered many students. He completely ignored the hot stares of the girls and nodded with a smile to those who greeted him with respect, however, there was something that caught his attention along the way.
Many male students were talking about a great beauty who could take the position of Gu Qianxue and Xie Yao showing up on campus.
This beauty that these hormone-elevated guys were talking about definitely couldn't be Shen Xinya since otherwise, Xie Feng would know. After all, it was absolutely impossible for him to miss someone's strange look and even more difficult to recognize Shen Xinya because of how well she hid; at most, they would only think she would be a new beauty but definitely not at the level they were talking about because she was hiding her face.
"Hmph." Xie Feng snorted in a bad mood and as he stepped into the building where the Business Department was located, he muttered to himself, "Stealing my Yao Yao and Qianxue's position? Dream on!"
