Feelings Heat Up

"Ah, are you really handing all these materials over to me to handle? This is a transaction worth hundreds of billions. Aren't you afraid I might embezzle them?"

Xu Xin was somewhat surprised. She had only blurted that out because she was concerned about Luo Feng, and she regretted it the moment the words left her lips.

After all, the two of them didn't have any special relationship, and asking Luo Feng to let her handle hundreds of billions worth of materials so abruptly was a bit presumptuous.

But to Xu Xin's surprise, Luo Feng agreed without even a second thought.

Embezzle? In the future, you can embezzle everything I own.

Luo Feng thought to himself, though he didn't dare to say it out loud.

"We're old classmates, I trust you."

Luo Feng said with a smile.

"Right, these things should be priced at their fair market value. And don't be modest about your commission; after all, handling this many materials is quite a lot of work."

Luo Feng continued.

"Alright, then I won't be polite."

Xu Xin said with a smile. She could feel the trust Luo Feng placed in her; after all, when someone agrees to something so instinctively, it speaks volumes.

In this moment, Xu Xin finally understood her standing in Luo Feng's heart.

He didn't hesitate at all over hundreds of billions in funds. This level of sincerity was a hundred, a thousand times better than those playboys who only knew how to send flowers, gifts, and cars.

Luo Feng is a Spiritual Telekinetic, and he has a significant net worth now. If I'm with him, my family shouldn't object.

Xu Xin snuck a glance at Luo Feng, a thought suddenly crossing her mind.

It couldn't be helped; ever since Luo Feng absorbed the Dragon Blood and broke through to the Planetary Level, his temperament had completely changed, and his attractiveness to the opposite sex had skyrocketed.

Especially for Xu Xin, who had already harbored feelings for him.

Once the matter of the materials was settled, the two of them unconsciously began to chat about other topics.

High school life, funny stories from their childhood.

Xu Xin even told Luo Feng about her university life.

Luo Feng also shared some of his childhood dreams with Xu Xin.

The more they talked, the more they hit it off, as if they had an endless supply of topics. Time slipped by, and neither of them noticed that over an hour had passed.

Outside the private room, Xu Gang, who had been keeping an eye on the situation, saw his expression shift from a frown to a dark, gloomy scowl.

"What is going on? My sister and that poor kid have been in there for over an hour and still haven't come out. Don't tell me..."

Xu Gang knew that his sister, Xu Xin, treated this Luo Feng differently than other boys; at the very least, she had some feelings for him.

But it should have only been a slight interest, yet the current situation felt wrong.

A young man and woman alone in a room for over an hour without coming out—it was clearly abnormal.

Xu Gang could no longer hold back. Regardless of whether it would upset his sister, he walked straight up to the door.

"Knock, knock, knock..."

Inside the room, Xu Xin and Luo Feng were chatting happily when the door was suddenly knocked upon.

"Someone is coming in. Luo Feng, hurry and put these monster materials away first."

Xu Xin said in a rush, suddenly realizing something.

Seeing Xu Xin's nervous expression, Luo Feng felt like laughing.

Xu Xin was truly looking out for him; she really was a good girl.

In truth, during high school, Luo Feng's feelings for Xu Xin were just a vague sensation, and they hadn't interacted much.

But after talking with her for so long today, Luo Feng felt he had a decent understanding of her.

As a young lady from a major family, she possessed none of the arrogance, haughtiness, or other negative traits often associated with such status.

Instead, she was gentle, kind, and empathetic.

Moreover, from the stories she told, he could sense that Xu Xin was the type of girl who was soft on the outside but firm on the inside.

Although Luo Feng knew from the memories he had absorbed that they would eventually get married.

In the original story, the female lead's screen time could only be described as almost non-existent.

What left the deepest impression on Luo Feng was that upon learning of his death, Xu Xin had actually committed suicide to follow him.

While many might think she was foolish or irresponsible, Luo Feng could feel the depth of that love.

A love that defied everything.

Therefore, in this life, Luo Feng had no interest in any other women; in his heart, he had long since chosen Xu Xin.

"No need. The person outside should be your brother. It's fine to let him in."

Luo Feng's spiritual energy had been monitoring Xu Gang ever since he entered the room, as this man had been staring at them ever since Xu Xin held his hand.

Luo Feng had even heard all of Xu Gang's whispers from earlier.

Therefore, he was certain of his identity.

"Thinking that it was her brother, Xu Xin also relaxed a little."

She then stepped forward and opened the door just a crack.

The moment the door opened, Xu Gang walked in impatiently.

But as soon as he entered, he saw the mountain of monster materials piled up in the private room and froze in his tracks.

"This... you guys..."

Everything he had originally intended to say was completely forgotten.

Although Xu Gang was a playboy, as the heir to the Xu Family, he recognized these high-grade materials.

Over a dozen Lord Rank materials and nearly a hundred high-grade Beast Soldier materials were piled up casually as if they were worthless; even an average War God would find it difficult to produce such a collection.

Most importantly, he clearly saw Luo Feng enter empty-handed, so how did these things appear?

Xu Gang couldn't figure it out at all.

Xu Xin quickly closed the door, finding her brother's expression amusing, but remembering his anxious demeanor earlier.

Does Big Brother think I'm doing something with Luo Feng in here? He's afraid I'll be taken advantage of.

Xu Xin thought to herself.

Luo Feng also looked at Xu Gang with a smile.

After a while, Xu Gang finally recovered and looked at Luo Feng.

"Hello, Luo Feng. Let me introduce myself; I am Xu Xin's brother, Xu Gang."

"Hello, Xu Gang."

Luo Feng's expression was very calm.

He knew this future brother-in-law was a snob, so there was no need to give him a friendly face; he only needed to demonstrate his strength and financial power.

The pile of materials before them was enough to prove many things.

With hundreds of billions worth of materials, even if the Xu Family was one of the 12 major families of the HR Alliance in Jiangnan Base City, they probably couldn't produce this much at once.

Although the Xu Family claimed to have trillions in assets, that was mostly real estate, not cash.

They likely couldn't produce this much in liquid capital at one time.

"Haha... I've long heard of your great name from my sister. I heard that in the high school my sister attended, there were only three high-level Dojo students, and you were one of them!

And I heard from my sister that you went to take the Quasi-Martial Artist Assessment right after the college entrance exam?

I imagine you are already a martial artist; that's amazing, an 18-year-old martial artist."

Xu Gang kept praising him the moment he arrived.

At the same time, Xu Gang was frantically trying to rationalize it in his mind, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't figure out how Luo Feng had obtained so many monster materials.

It was precisely because he couldn't figure it out that he didn't dare to offend Luo Feng casually before fully understanding the situation.

"Is there anything else?"

Luo Feng maintained a polite smile, but the meaning behind his words was clear: he wanted him to be tactful, stop bothering him, and leave on his own.
