After Ye Feng left, Su Jianfeng couldn't help but shake his head and curse, "I knew this brat had extraordinary luck with women! But someone like him isn't meant to stay in a pond, so having three wives and four concubines is normal..."
If Ye Feng had heard this, who knows what expression he would have worn.
On the other side, when Ye Feng caught up to Su Keqing, he found her weeping on the deck.
Seeing Ye Feng following her, she quickly wiped away her tears and immediately put on a brave face as if nothing had happened.
"Why did you follow me?"
Su Keqing tried not to look at Ye Feng, instead gazing at the distant sea, seemingly unwilling to let him see her sadness.
Hearing this, Ye Feng knew she was still angry, so he smiled and said, "Of course, I came to see you!"
"Hmph, what's so good about me to see! You should go see your girlfriend instead!" Su Keqing said, trying to maintain a calm demeanor and feigning indifference.
Ye Feng knew exactly what she meant by that. She was clearly still upset about what had happened earlier.
This gave Ye Feng a headache. Their relationship hadn't been officially defined. While they were friends, they had already crossed that boundary.
After all, anyone could see Su Keqing's feelings for him.
Especially when she rushed to his rescue upon learning he was in danger.
She had even brought someone like her father, which showed how much she valued Ye Feng.
As for Ye Feng, after escaping danger, he had been embracing his girlfriend. Ye Feng himself felt embarrassed thinking about it.
However, their relationship hadn't reached the level of lovers yet. Both could sense the other's affection, but neither had expressed it.
More importantly, Ye Feng had a legitimate girlfriend, and she was on the ship right now.
This situation made Ye Feng very awkward; it seemed no matter what he did, it wouldn't be right.
"Uh, that, I'm sorry! I, I wasn't paying attention just now!" Ye Feng didn't know how to comfort her at the moment, so all he could do was apologize.
Su Keqing didn't say anything, merely pretending, "I'm fine, you don't need to worry about me!"
"Uh, thank you for saving me today. If it weren't for you, I would have been finished today!" Ye Feng quickly changed the subject.
Seeing this, Su Keqing said indifferently, "It's nothing! You saved me before anyway, so we're even now, it's settled!"
Seeing that she was still upset, Ye Feng walked forward and hugged her tightly.
Instantly, a masculine aura enveloped her, and the feeling of being embraced stunned Su Keqing.
She felt as if she had been electrocuted, her whole body trembling, her heart racing, and her face flushed red to her ears.
The next moment, after recovering, she struggled violently, trying to break free from Ye Feng's embrace.
But her strength was no match for him.
"What are you doing? Let me go! There are other people on the ship, what if they see?" Su Keqing said, her face flushed with embarrassment.
Seeing this, Ye Feng smiled and said, "If you promise not to be angry, I'll let go!"
"Alright! I'm not angry anymore, let me go quickly!" Su Keqing quickly agreed.
Hearing this, Ye Feng immediately let go with a grin.
"You scoundrel!"
After Ye Feng released her, Su Keqing shoved him hard, then ran off with a blushing face.
Watching her hurried retreat, Ye Feng couldn't help but smile, savoring the lingering fragrance on him.
As Ye Feng walked back, he suddenly saw Su Jianfeng approaching and heard him say, "Kid, come here, I have something to tell you!"
Ye Feng's forehead broke out in a cold sweat. He wondered if Su Keqing had told Su Jianfeng about him bullying her.
Thinking this, Ye Feng felt a chill of fear. However, he braced himself and stepped forward, saying, "Senior Su, what do you need me for?"
Su Jianfeng walked over, handed him a thick book, and said, "A few days ago, Keqing told me you wanted to borrow some books and materials from the Dragon Police. Here you go!"
Seeing this, Ye Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief. He had thought Su Jianfeng was going to reprimand him.
He took the book and glanced at it. The title read "Ancient World Records" in large characters.
Seeing these words, Ye Feng was taken aback.
"Tell me how you got involved with these sea snake people!" Su Jianfeng suddenly said.
Hearing this, Ye Feng quickly recounted his first encounter with the sea clan and then the current incident.
"I see! They captured humans probably to prepare for the spiritual energy revival in the near future!" Su Jianfeng murmured to himself.
This statement confused Ye Feng, and he frowned, "In the near future, spiritual energy revival? What exactly is that?"
"Actually, I've only heard some of this news from within the Dragon Police. It's said that in ancient times, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was abundant, and all things could cultivate..."
Su Jianfeng gave Ye Feng a general overview of the ancient era, which made Ye Feng gasp in amazement.
It turned out that in ancient times, the world's spiritual energy was very dense, and everything with life could cultivate.
However, at the end of the ancient era, a war of the gods broke out. That battle caused heaven and earth to collapse, all things to be destroyed, and the spiritual energy to disappear.
But after millions of years, it had slowly repaired itself, and it was said that in the near future, it would recover...
"But I'm not entirely sure about the specifics! You can read the Ancient World Records I gave you, and I think you'll get a general idea!" Su Jianfeng explained.
After listening, Ye Feng nodded repeatedly, "Okay! Thank you, Senior Su!"
"Well, keep up the good work! No one knows what the future world will be like, so improving your strength is the most important thing!"
With that, Su Jianfeng patted Ye Feng's shoulder and turned to leave.
Ye Feng, holding the "Ancient World Records," immediately headed towards his cabin.
At the same time, unbeknownst to Ye Feng, Xiao Feifei had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Ye Feng return, she immediately regained her composure and pretended to be indifferent as she asked, "Ye Feng, you're back? Is Miss Su not angry?"
Hearing this, Ye Feng glanced at Xiao Feifei. Although she was trying hard to hide her emotions, Ye Feng could still see a hint of unnaturalness on her face.
However, he didn't say anything and instead replied, "She's not angry, why?"
"Oh, it's good that she's not angry!" Xiao Feifei quickly shook her head.
Ye Feng heard this, walked up, hugged her, and kissed her, "Are you jealous?"
"You know the answer already!"
Xiao Feifei didn't hide it anymore, which left Ye Feng speechless.
As Ye Feng felt awkward, Xiao Feifei suddenly said seriously, "Ye Feng, I know you are not meant to stay in a pond. You are like a divine dragon soaring through the nine heavens, destined to fly high!"
"Now, my abilities and background may not be able to help you much, so I don't expect to have your love all to myself. That's unrealistic, and I don't have the capital for it!"
"I just hope that no matter the circumstances in the future, you'll always have me in your heart!"
Hearing these words, Ye Feng was stunned. He hadn't expected Xiao Feifei to be so understanding and say such things.
With a wife like this, what more could a man ask for?
