153: Chapter 153 Rose Red Lotus, Strange Tales of Scavenging
"Uh..."
With a slight twitch of his ears, Qin Feng overheard the whispers of the two women, Qiangwei and Honglian, and his expression couldn't help but turn strange.
A girl chasing a guy?
Entering the bridal chamber?
What were these two, Qiangwei and Honglian, planning?
Could they be trying to sell him some new model of modified car and were willing to use a honey trap?
In Qin Feng's mind, Qiangwei was a genius at false advertising and marketing.
The words that came out of her mouth...
...were just for listening.
There was no need to take them too seriously.
"Qiangwei, Honglian."
Qin Feng turned to look at the two women walking out of the mist. "What a coincidence."
"Yeah, it really is a coincidence~"
Qiangwei chuckled and said:
"Our Honglian even dreamed about making love with you, Handsome Qin, last night, savoring the joy of the Dragon and Phoenix entwining. Meeting you today, I have to say, it really is fate!"
"Ah? Making love? Dragon and Phoenix entwining?"
Beside her, Honglian heard these two terms.
Her face instantly flushed red.
She didn't...
She hadn't...
At most, she had only dreamed about kissing...
But just as Honglian was about to argue, she felt Qiangwei nudge her elbow. Qiangwei’s gaze seemed to say, "Listen to your big sister. I guarantee you'll hit a home run and bring your male god home tonight!"
Honglian could only bury her red face in her ample chest.
She didn't know what to say anymore.
She only felt her cheeks burning.
She was so embarrassed that wisps of steam were almost rising from her head, turning her into a "Steam Maiden"...
"..."
Hearing Qiangwei's bold words, Qin Feng didn't know what to say for a moment.
He simply changed the subject and said casually:
"Are you two going to work?"
"Work..."
Qiangwei instinctively wanted to say they were going to work.
Business had been decent lately; several modified cars from her "big muscle bully" series had been sold.
There was even a customer appointment today.
But then she thought of Honglian's sexual well-being... oh no, her happiness.
She simply gritted her teeth.
With a grand wave of her hand:
"Aha! Work? What work!"
"Handsome Qin, we're bosses after all. Naturally, we work when we want and leave when we want. I'm in a good mood today, so we're planning to head to the Upper City for some fun."
"Oh? Going to the Upper City for fun?"
Qin Feng's heart stirred.
Although people from the Lower City could theoretically go to the Upper City, it was basically limited to some wealthy factory owners.
After all, only with money could one buy a private entry permit through special channels.
Even so, there were many travel restrictions.
Like him.
He had benefited from Lu Yunsong's influence.
It was just that he had been either busy with work or immersed in cultivation lately, so he hadn't had the time to wander around the Upper City.
Now that he had become a Martial Artist and accumulated some funds, it was a good time to find an opportunity to go shopping in the Upper City.
Many good things...
...were only available in the Upper City.
You couldn't find them in the Lower City even if you scoured every inch of the ground.
"It seems Qiangwei and Honglian have their own backgrounds. After all, a private entry permit for the Upper City is impossible to obtain without spending a fortune and having a guarantor."
While Qin Feng was thinking...
...he smiled at Qiangwei and Honglian.
"Alright then, I hope you have a great time in the Upper City."
He then intended to leave.
Seeing that Qin Feng actually intended to leave.
Qiangwei was a bit dumbfounded.
Wait, what...
He's leaving just like that?!
Two delicate beauties like us are going to the Upper City; shouldn't you take the initiative to offer to be our escort or something?
"This Handsome Qin seems to be a super 'iron' straight man, as straight as they come..."
Qiangwei couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
This girl Honglian was like a fierce woman when building engines or modifying cars, but in life, she was soft, cute, and incredibly shy, completely unable to be direct.
And Qin Feng...
...was gentle, polite, handsome, and rich, but he was just too 'straight.'
He wouldn't take the initiative to flirt with girls at all.
What should she do?
Qiangwei was as worried as an old mother, her mind racing as she thought of how to set them up.
Suddenly.
A flash of inspiration struck her.
She quickly grabbed Qin Feng as he was about to walk away.
"Hey, Handsome Qin, don't be in such a hurry to leave. I just remembered something I need your help with."
Qin Feng stopped in his tracks.
He turned back.
"What is it?"
Although he wanted to go back and try the Pile method postures from the "Limit-Breaking Martial Arts" training class flyer, it wasn't an urgent matter.
After all, these two women, Qiangwei and Honglian, had helped him acquire that highly cost-effective super private hovercar, the "crimson magic dragon."
They hadn't charged much.
Since there was a favor to be done...
...there was no harm in helping out, provided it was within his capabilities.
"Handsome Qin, have you ever heard of the ghost story about the 'Scavenging Forbidden Zone'?"
Her eyes darted around.
A mysterious look appeared on Qiangwei's face.
She spoke in a secretive manner.
"Scavenging Forbidden Zone?"
Qin Feng was stunned for a moment.
A strange look appeared on his face.
This episode... he seemed to have seen it before...
Beside them, Honglian's face also showed a hint of weirdness.
She had told Qin Feng about the "Scavenging Forbidden Zone" ghost story before. Her goal then was actually to flirt, gathering the courage to ask Brother Qin out on a date.
However, she had failed.
Thinking of the scene back then, Honglian couldn't help but feel a bit melancholy.
If she had spoken faster then, or dressed more attractively, maybe they'd even have a child by now?
Eh? What am I thinking? What having a child?
At the thought of "having a child"...
...Honglian's face turned even redder, and the "steam" on her head became even denser...
"Yes, I've heard of the 'Scavenging Forbidden Zone' ghost story."
Qin Feng nodded.
This "Scavenging Forbidden Zone" ghost story was related to the "Dragon-type Behemoth" heart he had previously performed Anatomy on.
However...
...this so-called "Scavenging Forbidden Zone" made Qin Feng instinctively feel it was dangerous. After experiencing the mutation at Raccoon Apartments, Qin Feng basically followed the principle of not going to any dangerous or eerie places if he could help it.
Steady development was the way to go.
Lie flat when he should.
Why take risks?
So, he had dismissed the idea of checking out the "Scavenging Forbidden Zone" back then.
Besides, the Forbidden Ground had mysteriously disappeared afterward.
If Qiangwei hadn't suddenly brought it up...
...he would have almost forgotten about it.
"Hehe, Handsome Qin, to tell you the truth, that unknown behemoth heart you performed Anatomy on at my family's factory actually... came from this 'Scavenging Forbidden Zone'!"
Qiangwei revealed what she considered to be "explosive" news.
Qin Feng's eyebrows shot up.
Obviously...
...Honglian hadn't told Qiangwei about her previous chance encounter with him.
But that was normal.
It was just a common chance encounter.
There wasn't much to say about it.
Qin Feng subconsciously glanced at Honglian and saw the soft, cute girl with her head down, fidgeting with her fingers. Her face seemed a bit red—was she feeling unwell or did she have a cold?
Then he looked back at Qiangwei.
He asked in confusion:
"I heard that the 'Scavenging Forbidden Zone' seems to have disappeared, hasn't it?"
The Forbidden Ground had already vanished.
What was the point of Qiangwei suddenly mentioning it?
Could it be...
As if thinking of something, Qin Feng's gaze sharpened, and he narrowed his eyes.
Noticing Qin Feng's expression, the corners of Qiangwei's mouth, coated in fluorescent reddish-purple lipstick, slowly curled up.
"Handsome Qin, it looks like you've figured it out."
"That's right..."
"That mysterious 'Scavenging Forbidden Zone' has recently reappeared!"
