"What are you spacing out for? Hurry up and get in!" Seeing Lin Feng standing there dumbfounded, Xue Qingyi's voice was tinged with annoyance. Doesn't this guy realize I'm barely dressed? This is so awkward!

"Oh! Okay..." Lin Feng finally snapped out of his daze and nodded awkwardly. Under the shocked gazes of the two female staff members, he dazedly walked towards Xue Qingyi's fitting room. Just as he reached the entrance, Xue Qingyi opened the door from inside, pulled him in, and then quickly bolted it.

After Lin Feng entered the narrow fitting room, he curiously glanced around. He saw large mirrors on two walls, a bench for clothes nearby, and a row of hooks on another wall. The fitting room was simply furnished, but Lin Feng's eyes soon landed on the main attraction...

Inside the fitting room, Xue Qingyi had taken off her long dress and set it aside. Now, she wore only a pair of gray leggings that reached mid-thigh...

Where am I supposed to look now? Lin Feng wondered, unsure where to direct his gaze.

Watching Xue Qingyi bolt the door with one hand, Lin Feng couldn't help but feel a little nervous. He forced himself to remain calm and asked, "Qingyi, why did you ask me to come in?"

Xue Qingyi turned, saw Lin Feng's nervous expression, and chuckled softly. The quiet laugh made Lin Feng's heart flutter... In such a confined space, with Xue Qingyi so scantily clad, his mind was already in turmoil, and he even felt a little breathless.

"What are you nervous about? I just need your help with the clasps at the back. I can't reach them myself..." After chuckling, Xue Qingyi turned her back to Lin Feng. "Hurry and help me..."

"Huh?" Lin Feng stared awkwardly at Xue Qingyi's nearly flawless back, somewhat bewildered, as if he still hadn't grasped what she wanted.

"Hurry... Put down what you're holding and help me with the clasps..." Xue Qingyi said, a touch of embarrassed annoyance in her voice. Standing before Lin Feng like this was putting a lot of pressure on her too.

"Oh..." Lin Feng finally understood and put down the shoebox. However, just as he was about to help, he froze. How am I supposed to do this?

"Lin Feng, why aren't you doing anything yet?" Seeing him still frozen, Xue Qingyi's face flushed slightly, and she said, a little annoyed.

How am I supposed to do this...? Lin Feng finally refocused, looking at the two straps hanging from the close-fitting undergarment. To fasten them, he'd have to reach around her sides, under her arms, and pull them to her back... It would be quite a feat to avoid touching her skin in the process...

But if I do touch her, will she think I did it on purpose? Lin Feng hesitated.

"Just fasten it however you need to! Can't you even help me with such a small thing?" Xue Qingyi said with some dissatisfaction, trying to suppress her shyness.

Of course, Lin Feng could help with such a small task... Since Xue Qingyi didn't seem to mind, he stopped hesitating. He reached his hands around her sides, grabbed the two straps, pulled them to her back, and fastened them with a soft CLICK.

The whole process was smooth and natural, but... His hands had definitely brushed against something soft!

Lin Feng appeared calm on the outside, but inwardly, his heart had been pounding with excitement for a while.

Xue Qingyi naturally knew Lin Feng had, whether intentionally or not, brushed against a sensitive part of her body. From an angle where Lin Feng couldn't see her, a faint, smug smile touched her lips. At least I'm not inferior to that Wu Mei. I can capture Lin Feng's attention too!

Xue Qingyi had learned that Lin Feng had actually been spending the past few days in the same room as Wu Mei, which had long filled her with dissatisfaction and jealousy. This time, by inviting Lin Feng in, whether intentionally or not, she had also meant to compare herself to Wu Mei. Seeing Lin Feng's reaction, Xue Qingyi knew she held considerable attraction for him. She wouldn't have to worry about Lin Feng being completely captivated by that Wu Mei and ignoring her anymore.

After the straps were fastened, Xue Qingyi adjusted the undergarment slightly while looking in the mirror, then smiled with satisfaction. "This piece really looks good. Your taste isn't half bad..."

Saying this, Xue Qingyi actually turned around and, with a teasing smile, said to Lin Feng, "Take a look..."

Lin Feng stole a quick glance at Xue Qingyi's chest before looking away. Captivating, utterly captivating... was all he could think.

"Hmm... nice..." Lin Feng said with difficulty, suppressing the heat rising within him. He had only dared that single glance and couldn't bring himself to look again.

"Alright. The rest of my clothes have front fastenings, so I can manage them myself. If you want to go out, you can leave now..." Xue Qingyi said to Lin Feng with a cheerful smile, her voice low. "But, if you'd like to stay, that's fine too. I don't mind you watching..."

"What?" Xue Qingyi's words made Lin Feng break out in a cold sweat. He hadn't seen her in half a year, and this girl had become so skilled at flirting! It's true what they say, a girl changes so much as she grows up... I'm getting too old for this; I can't keep up.

"Hehe... I was just teasing. You can go out and wait for me!" Xue Qingyi said to Lin Feng with a giggle, her voice laced with an unmistakable playful tease.

Lin Feng finally let out a huge sigh of relief and walked out of the fitting room, wiping the sweat from his forehead. Damn it! Being able to look but not touch... that's truly the cruelest form of torture for a man!

Lin Feng waited outside for a short while. Suddenly, he heard Xue Qingyi's phone ring. She answered it, and not long after, CLICK, she opened the fitting room door. She had changed back into her long dress and appeared before Lin Feng, a worried expression on her face.

"Zhou Yang called," she said. "He said Wu Mei is tangled up with someone and can't get away. He can't show himself right now, so he wants you to hurry over there."

Xue Qingyi wore a peculiar expression. Truthfully, when she first heard Zhou Yang's message, her womanly intuition led to a pang of schadenfreude. How dare Wu Mei try to steal her man! Even if Chen Ming dealt with her for good, she'd have it coming!

Xue Qingyi even felt a little reluctant to tell Lin Feng about this. However, she understood Lin Feng. She knew that if Wu Mei got into trouble because she deliberately withheld the news, he would probably hate her for the rest of his life.

So, despite her unhappiness, Xue Qingyi still told Lin Feng about Wu Mei's current situation.

Hearing Xue Qingyi's words, Lin Feng frowned. He now recalled that Wu Mei's mood had seemed off when she left earlier. Her resolute departure probably meant she intended to carry out the mission relying on her own capabilities. For a beautiful woman, in an environment surrounded by targets, the simplest way to find criminal evidence would be to get close to some powerful gang boss...

Remembering the tactics Wu Mei had used on him before, Lin Feng felt a headache coming on. Is she resorting to those methods again? Doesn't she realize how treacherous people can be? Those experienced, crafty old foxes in the underworld aren't so easily fooled!
