Even though the window was mercilessly closed, the phone call was still connected. Feng Yan was unsure if Sheng Xia was truly angry, so he tried to soften his voice as much as possible: “Xiaoxia?”

Not good, she had almost been tempted by beauty just now, almost jumping down from the second floor.

Sheng Xia stood by the window, from this angle, she could still vaguely see the figure downstairs, thinking deeply in her heart.

She was indeed a little upset when she didn’t hear Feng Yan explain everything sooner. The fact that the dog-like man didn’t even want to explain was enough to upset her.

She hadn’t expected him to be nearby, and after hearing what Sheng Lanqiu said, he had come directly.

Sheng Xia had to admit, she was really surprised when she saw him at the window, even feeling a burst of heartbeats, which was too loud in the silent night.

Tsk, the dog-like man was getting more and more skilled, even playing the surprise card of feigning surprise so adeptly.

This scene was really like Romeo and Juliet—

How could this be a request for an explanation, it was clearly a seduction for her to come down for a tryst!

Sheng Xia pressed her face against the cold window, listening to his softly calling on the phone, couldn’t help but raise the corners of her pale pink lips.

Then, with a bit of malicious intent, she lazily elongated her voice: “Mr. Romeo, do you really think that, with just a few dry words, you can invite Miss Juliet down? Her family is still watching over her, you know.”

Feng Yan seemed to realize something. After a few seconds of silence, his voice came through with a hint of a smile: “Then may I ask Miss Juliet, how can I make you look at me?”

Before she could reply, his deep and magnetic voice came through the phone, accompanied by a slight breeze, making her ears tingle: “I flew over the garden wall with love, because bricks and walls cannot block love; whatever love can do, it will venture to try, so I am not afraid of interference from your family.”

Seeing the window pushed open again, revealing Sheng Xia’s smiling face, Feng Yan’s eyes also sparkled with a smile.

After a slight pause, he continued softly, “The dim night can cover their eyes for me, as long as—”

Just then, there was a sudden knock on the room door.

“What happened just now? Are you okay?”

It seemed like he heard the sound of the window being closed and some movement in the room, so Feng Jingxu came over to ask, accidentally lowering the volume of the phone, making it somewhat unclear.

Sheng Xia: “……” Tsk, this person really can’t be around, he can really mess things up when he’s around.

She blinked at the man below, unable to help but laugh: “Someone arrived, what should we do?”

Although they were indeed playing the “Romeo and Juliet” joke, no one expected that there would actually be family members coming to interfere.

Feng Yan: “……”

He was silent for a few seconds, then calmly asked, “Isn’t this just right?”

“……Sheng Xia?”

Obviously unaware of what was happening inside, Feng Jingxu, not hearing Sheng Xia’s response, knocked on the door again in confusion.

Thinking of Sheng Lanqiu’s conversation with Sheng Xia just now, he frowned slightly, his expression becoming serious. Could it be that woman said something to Sheng Xia that upset her?

He had noticed Sheng Lanqiu’s strange expression when they were at the theater before. Could it be… she had noticed something between Cheng Mi and his father?

Just as his heart sank and he was about to knock on the door again, the room door suddenly opened, and Sheng Xia asked casually, “What’s wrong, Xiaoxu?”

Subconsciously looking her up and down, seeing that she seemed fine, Feng Jingxu breathed a sigh of relief and then noticed that she was wearing a coat: “Are you going out? Where are you going?”

Sheng Xia cleared her throat and said with a hint of sarcasm, “To meet the ‘Romeo’ who was disturbed by you.”

Feng Jingxu: “What Romeo?”

“Your dad is here.”

Seeing her smiling and shaking her phone, Feng Jingxu suddenly understood. Realizing what she had been doing in the room just now, he couldn’t help but choke up, his expression becoming somewhat stiff.

Wait, did he… disturb something?

Realizing that something was wrong, and thinking of his father’s cautious nature hidden beneath his cold exterior, Feng Jingxu suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

He forced a smile, took a step back, and pretended to be calm as he made way for her, “Well, then, why don’t you hurry up? I’ll look after Chenchen and Ranran. Remember to come back tomorrow morning.”

Sheng Xia looked at him in surprise, inexplicably showing a sigh of emotion, patting his shoulder, “Wow, Xiaoxu, you’ve really grown up. You and your dad are really father and son, thinking alike! Great, then I’ll leave Chenchen and Ranran to you.”

With that, Sheng Xia happily left. Watching her figure disappear, Feng Jingxu couldn’t help but feel a bit bewildered and strange, not understanding the meaning behind her words just now.

It wasn’t until he opened his phone and suddenly saw a message from Feng Yan: [I’m downstairs, I need to talk to Xiaoxia. I’ll leave Chenchen and Ranran to you tonight.]

Feng Jingxu: “……” His fist clenched.

He tightened his grip on his phone, unable to help but sneer. Need to talk? It sounded so grand.
