My System Forces Me to Live off Women

Chapter 590: Chapter 362: Cohabitation and Valentine’s Day (Part 3)

After a dozen seconds, Zhao Qingge calmed down as well. Her body wasn’t as stiff anymore. She turned her head slightly to look at Li Peifeng in her arms, her lips parted a few times unconsciously. When she saw him about to lift his head to look at her, she quickly turned away to avoid eye contact.

"Have you hugged enough?"

Li Peifeng’s response was another kiss. Because they were on the bed, in a dark room, the conditions were quite different from usual, so Zhao Qingge was very flustered and nervous.

Her first reaction was to dodge, but she couldn’t escape. She could only squirm, her hands desperately grabbing all over Li Peifeng’s body, trying to find some straw to clutch.

"Let me give you a leg massage."

As Li Peifeng took off her white shirt, his hands gradually reaching for her skirt while still murmuring about ’massaging her leg,’ Zhao Qingge finally put up some decent resistance. She grabbed Li Peifeng’s hands back, her voice slightly trembling but her meaning firm...

"You have to marry me!"

With his sharp eyesight, even in a bedroom without lights, Li Peifeng could clearly see that Zhao Qingge seemed to have tears in her eyes. His movements paused instinctively as he said, "Of course we’ll get married. I promised you."

Zhao Qingge’s expressions changed multiple times within a short two seconds — anger, disgust, bitterness, self-blame, helplessness, and finally she muttered softly, "I don’t want to get divorced."

Li Peifeng didn’t want a divorce either, but his divorce was just for a better marriage.

This put him in a difficult situation.

Quietly helping Zhao Qingge put her skirt back on, Li Peifeng hugged her again, stayed silent for a moment, and then said, "Then we won’t get divorced."

Zhao Qingge’s body trembled slightly, and she turned to look at Li Peifeng, her eyes suddenly full of joy: "Hmm?!"

"The civil affairs departments in different provinces aren’t connected."

Li Peifeng said in a low voice, "I can get four certificates in different provinces, and if the authorities discover it in the future, then so be it. I’ll accept whatever judgment comes. I’ll go to jail. It won’t take many years to get out, but who knows if those four red books can be kept..."

That was all nonsense.

The joy in Zhao Qingge’s eyes turned to disappointment. She said nothing as she broke free from him, got up to put on her shirt, and returned to the study.

A moment later, Li Peifeng heard the phone ring next door. It was a call from Wu Wenyue to Zhao Qingge. Shortly after, Zhao Qingge changed into a set of sportswear and left the house.

"She probably went to work out with Wu Wenyue."

Li Peifeng frowned slightly. Throughout the entire day, those three hadn’t looked for him. It seemed they really listened to what Zhao Qingge said, completely unaware of her stealing act, and Wu Wenyue even had the nerve to invite Old Zhao to work out?

"These tiger women have truly taken the thief for their father!"

Li Peifeng sighed and continued typing on the keyboard.

"Click~"

Zhao Qingge returned at nine o’clock in the evening. She didn’t say hello, and Li Peifeng didn’t talk to her either, just focused on his work. Thanks to his iron will and revised organs, he pulled an all-nighter, making some progress, pushing the project forward a little.

Time passed with the night fading away and the sun rising. It was a brand new day.

He had breakfast with Old Zhao, talked a bit about the project, and then went back to his work.

However, a phone call reminded him that today was a special day...

"Okay, send it over. I’ll take a look at the final cut."

The caller was Tang Yan. The VFX work for the "Sword and Law" trailer had been completed on schedule.

The MOREVFX studio sent the finished short video to Trinity early in the morning. Tang Yan and the others didn’t take long to finish the final subtitles and music. If there were no unexpected issues, the video could be released online by noon to promote the launch of "Sword and Law."

Besides that, today was also a significant day; it was February 14th, Valentine’s Day.

"Brother Feng, how do you plan to spend Valentine’s Day?"

Tang Yan, perhaps out of curiosity, asked after reporting his work, leaving Li Peifeng momentarily stunned before he chuckled;

"It’s definitely not going to be a good day!"

"Ahem~"

A female voice coughed faintly over the phone, and Li Peifeng immediately recognized it as Xu Manning. Then Tang Yan seemed to remember something, "Brother Feng, if spending Valentine’s alone feels boring, why not join us? We could have a meal, drink a little, sing some songs... mainly, we want to eat your cooking."

At the end, Tang Yan laughed awkwardly, seeming somewhat embarrassed.

The performance wasn’t bad, but Li Peifeng had already seen through it. It was definitely under Xu Manning’s direction that Tang Yan made this call.

A silent connection, activated!

Sure enough, Tang Yan was in Wu Wenyue’s office at the studio, using speakerphone, with Xu Manning and Wu Wenyue also listening in...

How many days has it been? Not even two days, and they couldn’t hold back?

"Whose idea was this? Boss Wu’s, Boss Xu’s, or you guys’?"

"Ours!" Tang Yan quickly replied, "Me, Jinyu, Anan... ever since we had dinner at your place, we’ve been talking about it. Is that okay, Brother Feng?"

"Forget it."

Li Peifeng calmly said, "Spending Valentine’s Day only with you guys is meaningless. Just have your gathering; I’ve got work to do, hang up~"

After hanging up, Li Peifeng fell into deep thought, realizing his residence at Zhao Qingge’s place might be hard to keep a secret...

"Ring ring~"

A video call, incoming from Huang Tianxuan.

"Happy Valentine’s Day."

Li Peifeng chose to answer with a voice call and then sincerely and cheerfully offered an inexpensive greeting.

Huang Tianxuan didn’t take it, and she got straight to the point: "You’re not home. Where are you fooling around?"

Li Peifeng took a deep breath, making a minimal contribution to global warming.

"Are you at my doorstep?"

"This isn’t your home. To be precise, I’m at the door of one of Xu Manning’s properties... Where exactly are you?"

"That’s a good question!"

Li Peifeng said with quite some sentiment, "How about we let time answer that question?"
