4: Little Moon, a kind-hearted and beautiful girl [Please continue reading]

Soon, Ji Ziyue's voice, still laced with embarrassment and annoyance, came from behind him: "O-okay... you can turn around now."

Chu Feng adjusted his expression, making an effort to look sincere and innocent, before finally turning around.

He saw Ji Ziyue had put on her light purple nightgown, her hands nervously twisting the hem of the skirt. Her pretty face was still flushed, and her eyes darted away, afraid to meet his gaze.

At this moment, she had yet to experience the many hardships detailed in the original work. She was green and tender, like a budding flower, possessing an innocent and pure loveliness.

"Ahem," Chu Feng cleared his throat and apologized solemnly again, "I am truly sorry, Little Moon, for startling you."

"Hmph!" Ji Ziyue puffed out her cheeks like an angry little hamster. "H-how could you just appear so suddenly!"

"I didn't want to either," Chu Feng spread his hands, looking helpless. "The Chat Group's Teleportation Function doesn't have a prompt or a confirmation button. It just 'whoosh' and throws me over."

His eyes shifted, and he suddenly flashed a mischievous smile, trying to use humor to diffuse the awkwardness: "How about... just for fairness, I strip naked and let you look once too? Then we'll be even, and nobody owes anyone anything?"

"Per... Pervert! Who wants to look at you!!!" Ji Ziyue was stunned for a moment, then stamped her foot in anger, her blush deepening. Yet, for some reason, the scoundrel's shameless words made her want to laugh a little. How could this guy be so thick-skinned!

Seeing Little Moon's pure look, mixed with embarrassment and anger, Chu Feng felt great. He stopped teasing her and said seriously, "Thank you again for your points, Little Moon. As I said before, I want to repay you by giving you a surprise."

Mentioning "surprise" immediately diverted Ji Ziyue's attention. Her large eyes sparkled with anticipation as she looked curiously at Chu Feng: "What surprise?" What surprise would this handsome "Chaos Heavenly Venerate" give her? A divine weapon? A secret technique? Or... Under Ji Ziyue's expectant gaze, Chu Feng flashed a brilliant, slightly embarrassed smile, and then pointed to himself:

"The surprise is—me. Does your Ji Family provide room and board?"

"Ah?!" Ji Ziyue froze, tilting her little head, unable to process it immediately.

When she finally understood that Chu Feng's so-called "surprise" was him staying and asking her to "provide food and lodging," she immediately burst into laughter, letting out a "puchi" sound, followed by a string of silver-bell-like "hahaha" laughs that made her bend over.

"Hahaha... You... You are too funny!" While laughing, she eagerly used her mind to share this "amusing incident" in the Chat Group.

Ji Family's Little Moon (Ji Ziyue): "Hahahaha! Sisters, come look! @All Members The surprise Chaos Heavenly Venerate Chu Feng mentioned is that he's coming to my house to mooch food and drinks! (≧▽≦)"

As soon as this message appeared, the Chat Group, which had already been following the situation, instantly exploded.

Saintess of the Jade Pool: "...?" (The Saintess, full of Immortal Qi, also typed a question mark.)

Demon Clan Princess (Yan Ruyu): "...Surprise?" (The cool voice carried a hint of shock.)

Mistress of Miaoyu Nunnery (An Miaoyi): "Giggle giggle~ Little Heavenly Venerate, your surprise is truly unique~ But my Miaoyu Nunnery can genuinely provide you with room and board, dear~" (The voice carried a tempting laugh.)

Heavenly Fox Demoness (Demoness): "Oh my! You're killing me, little brother! @Chaos Heavenly Venerate Chu Feng, you've got guts, kid! You want to live off a woman right after meeting her? And Little Moon, this Little Rich Woman, no less!" (The Demoness stirred up trouble, fearing nothing.)

Facing the group's teasing, Chu Feng remained perfectly composed and responded in the Chat Group.

Chaos Heavenly Venerate (Chu Feng): "@Heavenly Fox Demoness So what if I live off a woman? Am I eating your rice? @Ji Family's Little Moon is kind-hearted and beautiful, innocent and adorable. She will definitely take in a poor, homeless person like me, right, Little Moon?" As he spoke, he looked at Ji Ziyue beside him with a "sincere" expression.

Hearing Chu Feng praise her as "kind-hearted and beautiful" in front of so many people, Ji Ziyue's mouth couldn't help but curve upwards, feeling a sweet warmth inside. Still, she tried hard to maintain a straight face and snorted, "Hmph! Of course. Since this maiden sees you are so pitiful, taking you in isn't impossible. I'll have my brother arrange a place for you in the Outer Sect Disciple quarters later."

"Outer Sect?" Chu Feng raised an eyebrow, showing dissatisfaction. "That's boring, being unfamiliar with the place and people. I want to stay here in your Water-Cloud Immortal Cave, right here in your Purple Moon Pavilion!"

As he spoke, he brazenly walked over to Ji Ziyue's elegant bedroom couch, which was covered with a soft silk quilt, and unceremoniously lay down, even comfortably rubbing the pillow.

"Ah! Get... Get up now!" Seeing this, Ji Ziyue's face flushed red with anger again. She rushed over and reached out to pull Chu Feng. "Get off, you pervert! This is my bed! And don't think about staying here! If you keep this up, I... I'll tell my brother to come hit you!"

She used all her strength, but Chu Feng felt as heavy as a mountain, not moving an inch.

Hearing Little Moon's completely unthreatening "warning," Chu Feng chuckled, instead reaching out and hugging a cute rabbit-shaped pillow on the bed, looking at her with a mischievous smirk:

"It's fine, your brother can't beat me. I'm sticking with you. Who told you to lend me points and provide coordinates? You're so nice, I suddenly realized I like you! Little Moon, be my wife! That way, my staying here will be perfectly legitimate!"

"Ah?! Wha... What nonsense are you spouting!!!" Ji Ziyue's mind went blank from his sudden "proposal." Her entire face instantly turned red like a fiery cloud, and she was so embarrassed she nearly steamed!

Frustrated and angry, she extended her tiny fists, which rained down on Chu Feng's body. "Who wants to be your wife! Who acts like this the first time they meet someone! You scoundrel! Pervert! Get up!"

Her little fists didn't even count as tickling to Chu Feng's Quasi-Emperor Body. Not only did Chu Feng not feel pain, but he looked completely delighted, deliberately groaning, "Mmm~ Comfortable, Little Moon's massage feels so good. A little to the left, yes, yes, right there..."

The more he acted this way, the more embarrassed and angry Ji Ziyue became. Eventually, she couldn't help but laugh through her anger at the scoundrel's shamelessness: "Pfft... Hahaha... You... You are truly... truly hateful!!!" She finally gave up hitting him, picked up another pillow, and angrily smacked it onto Chu Feng's face.

When one is angry to the extreme, they truly start to laugh.

What Ji Ziyue didn't know was that the entire process—from Chu Feng's teleportation, to her being "teased," "proposed to," and her ensuing frustration and helplessness—was silently being shared in real-time within the Chat Group using Chu Feng's [Live Broadcast] function... Heavenly Fox Demoness: "Oh my! A live proposal! @Ji Family's Little Moon Little Moon, why hesitate? Such a handsome and 'powerful' (meaning durable) Heavenly Venerate, hurry up and say yes!"

Mistress of Miaoyu Nunnery: "Such youthful vitality~ Even I am charmed by watching this~"

Saintess of the Jade Pool: "...What impropriety."

Demon Clan Princess: "...Shameless."

When these teasing and cheering voices clearly entered Ji Ziyue's mind via the Chat Group, she suddenly realized!

"Ah!!! Chu Feng!!! You... You were actually broadcasting live!!!"

She let out a shriek of utter shame and indignation, forgetting all about her image. She lunged onto the bed, grabbed the rabbit pillow, and used all her strength to launch a "fatal" attack against the guy lying on her bed, who was smiling brightly and begging for a beating... The Purple Moon Pavilion was instantly filled with the sounds of "fierce" combat, the embarrassed shouts of the maiden, and the triumphant laughter of a certain scoundrel.
