Boil Wine's skills were deeply hidden, known only to Feng Cai'er herself.

In the eyes of others, Yang Fei was nothing more than an ordinary person.

Would the police department announce to the public,

"The famous international assassin, Magnificent Outlaw Aberon, was killed by a regular citizen of Yannan City?"

No one would believe it; instead, it would prompt a wave of doubts and hisses.

Yang Fei was aware of the Little Police Flower's concerns.

He said indifferently, "This merit is a gift from me to you. You can accept it with peace of mind."

"If that doesn't work, you can consult Director Zhang. He'll have suggestions for you."

Upon hearing this, the Little Police Flower's eyes lit up, and she clapped her hands together.

"Right, why didn't I think of that, take problems to the leader. I'll call him right now."

"I'll leave Aberon to your police force while I escort Miss Xuanya home," Yang Fei said and then turned to leave.

He couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

The Little Police Flower was unaware that Zhang Shide's identity was that of a special agent from the Hidden Dragon Nine Divisions.

The first police officer to discover Aberon's body was Feng Cai'er.

According to the consistently low-profile and secretive approach of the Hidden Dragon Nine Divisions,

Zhang Shide would insist on placing this credit upon Feng Cai'er's head.

Yang Fei intentionally advised Feng Cai'er to consult Zhang Shide because he, in fact, wanted to pass the merit on to her.

Presumably, Zhang Shide understood Yang Fei's intentions as well.

Feng Cai'er knew that Xiao Xuanya was a client of Changfeng Security Company.

Seeing that Xiao Xuanya was overly shocked, she could only let Yang Fei and Xiao Xuanya leave first.

Upon arriving at the villa, Lin Xueyi, Zhang Lifang, and Su Yinxue had already returned.

Yang Fei had an injury on his shoulder.

Even though it had been treated simply, the blood seeping through the bandage was still shocking to behold.

And Xiao Xuanya was in quite a sorry state.

Her clothes were dirty, and both her arms and knees bore traces of scrapes.

These minor injuries were caused by Yang Fei rolling continuously on the ground to avoid the sniper while holding her tight.

Although these were just slight wounds,

To a woman, they were still a serious matter.

Seeing the condition of the two, the three women were greatly surprised.

Yang Fei did not mention the encounter with the sniper.

He only said that they had been attacked by robbers in an alley while browsing the night market.

Thanks to his extraordinary skills, he had managed to drive the robbers away.

Xiao Xuanya understood that Yang Fei did not want the three women to worry.

She did not expose his lie, and after chatting briefly with everyone, she went upstairs to take a shower and change her clothes.

When Lin Xueyi heard that Yang Fei and Xiao Xuanya had gone to the night market,

She felt a sourness in her heart that was quite uncomfortable.

Zhang Lifang also felt extremely uneasy.

Only Su Yinxue, upon seeing the bandage on Yang Fei's shoulder, had a thoughtful expression on her face.

Her gaze at Yang Fei clearly showed that she did not quite believe his story.

Yang Fei didn't mind.

Lin Xueyi and Zhang Lifang were very kind and simple women.

Deceiving them wasn't hard.

But Su Yinxue was a cunning and intricate woman,

And fooling her was not so easy.

Fortunately, Su Yinxue did not call out Yang Fei's lie.

She just looked at Yang Fei and Xiao Xuanya with a smirk, then lowered her head to continue reviewing documents.

In the evening, Yang Fei practiced Turtle Hibernation as usual.

His Qi-Blood circulated smoothly even as his breath became nearly imperceptible, allowing him to peacefully fall asleep.

In this way, the circulation of Qi-Blood would continue along its usual path,

Even as Yang Fei was deeply asleep until he woke up the next day.

However, as Yang Fei was gradually falling asleep in a state of Turtle Hibernation,

His crystal-clear, tranquil mind suddenly stirred.

Yang Fei instantly woke up.

Outside the door, there lingered a faint fragrance distinctive to a woman, wafting and refusing to dissipate.

Yang Fei sighed helplessly.

He opened his eyes, got out of bed, and turned on the light.

This Lancome perfume was used by only one among the four women—Xiao Xuanya.

Yang Fei's nose could instantly identify it once he took a sniff.

He put on his clothes, fastening buttons as he shouted towards the door.

"Is that Miss Xuanya?"

Sure enough, Xiao Xuanya's voice came from outside.

"I'm sorry for disturbing you, Brother Fei."

Yang Fei opened the door and said lightly, "Please come in, come in and talk."

But Xiao Xuanya refused to enter.

She said leisurely, "The moonlight is like water, and I have boiled a pot of old wine under the wisteria trellis."

"I'd like to invite Brother Fei for a taste. I wonder if Brother Fei would honor me with his presence?"

Yang Fei stuck his head out to take a look.

Indeed, he saw that under the wisteria trellis in the villa's garden, a light was on.

He chuckled ruefully, "I do love a good wine."

Xiao Xuanya on the balcony was dressed in a light-blue cheongsam, her hair swept up in a high bun.

Her eyes brimmed with charm, and she looked as beautiful as a hazy dream.

Xiao Xuanya smiled, "With good people comes good wine, of course."

She had been looking down all this while but now lifted her head, her eyes full of movement, glancing at Yang Fei.

"You saved me tonight, Brother Fei, and even got hurt in the process."

"I felt so guilty, I wanted to show a little gratitude."

Yang Fei took a deep breath.

Indeed, he could smell a rich fragrance of wine in the air.

Yang Fei let out a 'heh heh' and smiled, "It does smell like good wine indeed."

Xiao Xuanya smiled faintly, "Please honor me with your presence, Brother Fei."

She walked down from the balcony with a graceful and delicate gait.

The slits in Xiao Xuanya's light-blue cheongsam occasionally revealed a glimpse of her fair skin.

It was tantalizing, like creamy jade, stirring the heart.

Wearing a light jacket, Yang Fei went downstairs to join her under the wisteria trellis.

The wisteria flowers were in bloom, emitting a fresh and grassy scent.

On the stone table beneath the trellis was a tea tray.

On the tray was a row of celadon glazed wine cups, all neatly arranged.

The cups were not large, holding just about eight grams of wine.

But seeing the more than ten cups, Yang Fei felt a bit daunted nonetheless.

Next to the tray was a small bronze charcoal brazier.

The surface of the brazier was covered with intricate and beautiful patterns.

At the center, fine charcoal burned.

Above the brazier was a blackened earthen pot.

The pot looked quite old and was bubbling with hot wine, shrouded in steam.

On the other side of the tray were seven or eight white porcelain dishes.

They contained a variety of appetizers like fried peanuts and soy sauce chicken feet, all looking exquisitely delicious.

Yang Fei praised them with a tsk-tsk.

He hadn't expected Xiao Xuanya to have such a taste for the finer things in life.

Boiling wine and sharing feelings—a truly delightful experience.

Xiao Xuanya seemed like a young lady from old times.

She sat down with ease and grace and with a long-handled silver ladle, she filled each of the small cups with wine.

Her movements were elegant and poetic.

Watching the crystalline wine pour from her ladle into each cup was like listening to the gentle babbling of a stream.

Yang Fei watched with an amused expression as Xiao Xuanya filled every cup to the brim.

After she finished pouring, Xiao Xuanya extended her hand towards Yang Fei, "Please."

Yang Fei gently picked up a cup and sipped lightly.

He felt a thread of liquor drop into his stomach.

That liquor immediately turned into a blazing energy, burning through his organs.

After just one small sip, it seemed that the Essence Qi in his body gained vitality.

He was taken aback, "This wine—is it Dharma Wine?"
