In the following days, Ye Fei and Liu Yiru grew even closer. Every night, they would take turns pleasuring each other with their hands and mouths.
However, Ye Fei was somewhat frustrated.
No matter how hard he tried, even when he brought her to the brink of climax and then stopped abruptly, she never seemed to want to take things further.
Although getting her to perform oral sex on him so soon was already more successful than he had expected, he now found himself growing dissatisfied. Yet, he couldn’t bear to push her too hard, so he had to suppress his desires.
These days left a growing frustration building up inside him.
During the daytime, Liu Yiru would leave Ye Fei alone in the cave while she went out to search for the Ice Spirit Herb.
Although her cultivation had significantly improved after practicing the Jibing Xinjue, Ye Fei still worried about her. He secretly followed her every day to ensure her safety.
Fortunately, his concerns never materialized, and he didn’t have to reveal his true abilities to her. Being alone with her was satisfying for Ye Fei, but only being able to release his urges through her hands and mouth was driving him nearly mad.
He even considered creating another "accident" to take things further, but he didn’t want to resort to such methods unless absolutely necessary.
What Ye Fei didn’t know was that Liu Yiru was also struggling with her own frustrations.
Like him, she was no longer content with just pretending. However, their relationship held her back from making that final decision.
But that wasn’t her biggest concern.
After all, they were already almost at the point of no return. The real reason was her fear. She was afraid that Ye Fei was merely infatuated with her body and didn’t truly have romantic feelings for her.
If that were the case, how long could they last without a foundation of genuine emotion? What would happen when he lost interest in her body?
If Ye Fei knew all of this, he would probably regret it so much that he’d want to bang his head against the wall.
Unfortunately, as the saying goes, good things come with many trials. Perhaps even fate was jealous of Ye Fei’s good fortune and wanted to make him suffer a bit longer.
While Ye Fei and Liu Yiru were caught in this dilemma of happiness and frustration, unaware of each other’s true feelings, something significant happened in Wang Hai City, a thousand miles away, stirring both the criminal underworld and the authorities.
Just yesterday morning, an insignificant tabloid newspaper suddenly published an absolutely shocking piece of news. The headline alone was enough to stun anyone: "The Mayor of Wang Hai City’s Secret Lover!"
In the report, the journalist confidently described what he had witnessed, claiming that he had seen Mayor Liu Fengyi of Wang Hai City secretly meeting with a young man. He had followed them and eventually managed to capture intimate photos of the couple.
If it were just words, Wang Hai City, which knew Liu Fengyi well, would never have believed it. However, two illustrations in the middle and at the end of the report made it impossible to doubt.
One showed Liu Fengyi, dressed in pajamas, snuggling intimately in a man’s arms and kissing his cheek.
Although only half of her face was visible in the photo, her unparalleled beauty, which could captivate every man in Wang Hai City, was so memorable that she was easily recognizable. The other photo was even more striking.
It showed Liu Fengyi exiting a hotel, accompanied by a young man with a similar build to the one in the first photo. His arm was wrapped around her slender waist.
This man was no stranger to the public; he was a newly famous handsome male celebrity.
Within just half a day, the report was widely reprinted across major networks.
Almost overnight, the attention of the entire nation of Longguo was drawn to Wang Hai City and to Mayor Liu Fengyi, who was renowned for both her competence and beauty.
Most perplexing was the unusually swift response from the higher-ups in Longguo.

That very afternoon, a delegation dispatched by the highest authorities arrived in Wang Hai City.
Without conducting a thorough investigation, they suspended Liu Fengyi from her position on the grounds of improper conduct.
The position of Mayor of Wang Hai City was temporarily taken over by her deputy, Vice Mayor Zhang Linxin, who was almost as attractive as Liu Fengyi.
When this news spread, both the Liu and Ye families were thrown into a state of panic. Liu Junyi was still in the capital, while Liu Yiru and Ye Fei were out.
They seemed to have lost their mainstay.
After some discussion, Ye Siqi called Liu Yiru, who was far away in Changbai Mountain, to inform her of the situation.
Liu Yiru had just left the blissful cave when she received the call.
The news was hard for her to accept, and she stood stunned for a moment before instructing Ye Siqi to calm everyone down and wait for her return before taking any further action.
After hanging up the phone, Liu Yiru’s first thought was of Ye Fei. She had grown accustomed to relying on him.
However, as soon as she thought of him, she hesitated. She was reluctant to give up the opportunity to be alone with him. If she went back, life would return to normal, and she would no longer be his "girlfriend."
This thought flashed through Liu Yiru’s mind but was quickly discarded. She felt a pang of guilt, realizing that she had almost forgotten about her sister in her desire to be with Ye Fei. She couldn’t believe she had let her feelings for a man overshadow her concern for her sister.
Ye Fei’s phone, unlike Liu Yiru’s, was not specially designed to receive messages.
After Liu Yiru left, he had tidied up and was preparing to follow her discreetly to ensure her safety. He was surprised when she returned before he could set off.
"What’s going on?" he asked, stepping forward and gently embracing her soft, delicate body.
"Pack up. We’re going back to Wang Hai City," Liu Yiru said, her mind preoccupied with worry for her sister.
However, Ye Fei’s embrace helped her relax. It felt like with him by her side, everything would be okay.
"What happened?" Ye Fei asked urgently. He knew how anxious Liu Yiru was about his recovery. She would never give up the chance to help him unless something truly serious had occurred.
Liu Yiru let out a deep sigh and leaned weakly against Ye Fei.
"Something’s happened to my sister," she said, then recounted the news she had heard from Ye Siqi.
