Special Expert of Beauty CEO

Chapter 5: Chapter 004 The Three Articles of Covenant

Inside the Green Bamboo Forest Villa, a man and a woman were in the villa’s grand hall. The beauty was panting heavily, sitting on the sofa, staring furiously at the distant man.

The man was sitting on the ground in agony, holding various pieces of antique fragments, his expression as pained as it could possibly be.

”Ow, ow, it hurts... My heavens, ow...”

Qin Tian held a shard of blue and white porcelain vase, broken to less than half its original size, shaking his head and wailing piteously.

”I didn’t even hit you, what are you howling for? Are you even a man?” Murong Fei exclaimed angrily, thinking to herself if this guy was a dog with such quick reflexes as to dodge everything she threw at him.

”Such savage waste! You city people really know how to play, treating antiques like they aren’t worth money... It’s not that you’ve hurt me, but my heart aches. This piece of blue and white porcelain, it’s worth at least a few hundred thousand!” Qin Tian bemoaned, shaking his head. ”You really are a spendthrift woman!”

”You...”

That one sentence again infuriated Murong Fei considerably. She wanted to grab something to throw at Qin Tian, but upon turning her head, she saw that there was nothing left on the sofa to throw.

”What I’m throwing is our family’s belongings, why are you in pain? It wasn’t you who bought them, was it?”

Murong Fei was speechless, thinking to herself that this man had to be a miser, a greedy sort seduced by money. What did her throwing her family’s antiques have to do with him?

”Hey, hey, hey, make it clear, is that antique yours or not?” Qin Tian asked.

”It’s mine, alright.”

”Well, there you go, you are my wife, and since you belong to me, doesn’t that mean your things are mine too? When you throw those antiques, it looks like you’re throwing your own things, but in reality, you’re throwing my money. You’re fiercely finding ways to squander our wealth...”

”You... you shameless!”

Murong Fei was taken aback by Qin Tian’s rationale. What’s this ’what’s yours is mine’ nonsense? That was just too shameless! Even if they were to get married, she... she hadn’t married him yet!

”Qin Tian, I’m now officially warning you. First of all, we only have a temporary marriage agreement, and I may not necessarily want to marry you. Maybe my grandfather was muddled for a moment...”

”Wife, you’re too cruel...”

”Shut up! Don’t call me randomly, who’s your wife? I’m telling you, we are cultured people who understand manners. Even if we are to get married, we are not right now! So, don’t call me your wife!”

”Then what should I call you? Fei’er? Feifei? Little Feifei? Or Darling? Sweetheart?”

”Ew... shameless! Disgusting! Do you have no face at all?”

Murong Fei stood up from the sofa, walked up to Qin Tian, and looking down at him from her lofty position with a CEO’s domineering gaze, she said, ”We both have names, from now on just address each other by name. I don’t want a third person to know about our relationship...”

”But your grandfather already knows, oh~ you’re calling your grandfather ’not a person’?”

”Drop dead!”

Slap!

With that, Murong Fei truly did strike at Qin Tian. Fortunately, he was quick to dodge and was only brushed by the motion, avoiding being actually hit.

”Qin Tian, I’m telling you, even though I don’t know what your identity is or why my grandfather insists on marrying me off to you, listen well, there’s absolutely no chance between us!”

Murong Fei stated seriously, ”So, starting from today, even though we live together, that’s all it is—just living together. Don’t even think about taking advantage of me, or else you’ll bear the consequences!”

Qin Tian said earnestly, ”We sleep on the same bed and you still expect me to behave? Look at how handsome you are. Heh, you’ve got everything—a real beauty... How can I resist not touching you when we sleep together?” As he spoke, Qin Tian’s gaze lingered on a particularly full area of Murong Fei, prompting her to quickly cross her arms over her chest.

”In your dreams! I mean we live in the same building, who said anything about sleeping together?”

Murong Fei gave Qin Tian a disdainful glance and said, ”This villa has two floors. Starting today, you live on the first floor, I live on the second floor, and without my permission, you’re not allowed upstairs! Got it?”

”Heard that, boss...”

”Don’t call me that!”

”Boss.”

”Pfft...”

Looking at Qin Tian’s serious yet somewhat foolish expression, Murong Fei couldn’t help but laugh, but she quickly covered her mouth to restrain herself.

”Alright, it’s settled then. Let’s pretend we don’t know each other, just like we’re simply cohabitating here, each minding our own business with food and lodging, I won’t bother you, and you won’t bother me.”

Having said that, Murong Fei headed upstairs.

”Hey!”

Qin Tian called out to her, ”Didn’t you just say you’d listen to whatever I said?”

Murong Fei’s expression remained calm, her dark eyes blinked as she feigned ignorance, ”Did I say that? When? And who else heard it?”

”Beauty, if you don’t keep your word, are you even human...” Qin Tian complained.

Murong Fei turned around and walked upstairs arrogantly in her high heels, finally showing a triumphant victor’s smug expression on her face.

...

Murong Bei took Qin Tian and Murong Fei out for a meal that evening, and then let the ”young couple” drive back by themselves.

Murong Fei naturally wanted as few people as possible to know about her cohabitation with Qin Tian, so she didn’t bring any servants to the Green Bamboo Forest Villa.

Taking advantage of her grandfather being abroad during this period, she planned to find various ways to drive Qin Tian away and then pretend as if nothing happened.

In the car, neither of them spoke. When they got back to the villa, they still didn’t speak, each returning to their own room.

Qin Tian had spent the day with Murong Fei in a light-hearted manner as relaxation, but at night he had his own matters to attend to, so with things on his mind, he was not very talkative.

Coming to Zhonghai City, Qin Tian naturally wasn’t there to marry Murong Fei and live a confused life in Zhonghai.

On one hand, the old man had asked for his help; on the other hand, after completing this mission, Qin Tian would receive a huge reward—by accomplishing the old man’s task, Qin Tian would obtain the old man’s most cherished Cultivation Secret Manual.

Back in his room, Qin Tian couldn’t wait to pull out an ancient book that had yellowed with age. Its cover was ink-colored, and on it were four white characters— ”Sunflower Secret Manual.”

”Thank goodness it’s not ’The Sunflower Bible’; otherwise, for the sake of happiness, there’s no way I’d dare to cultivate it.”

All along the way, Qin Tian had already curiously skimmed through this ancient book a few times. It contained nine Chapters, each teaching a martial skill, progressively building on each other. Without mastering the first Chapter, one could not master the martial skills of the second Chapter.

”Wave Striding Technique. Could this be the legendary Wave Striding Light Step?”

Seeing the name of the first Chapter, Qin Tian’s curiosity was piqued, and he began to read with interest.

The Wave Striding Technique was indeed similar to the Wave Striding Light Step described in television dramas. In general, it also trained instantaneous movement ability, but the Wave Striding Technique looked more realistic and was harder to cultivate.

He continued studying the Wave Striding Technique until about eleven at night. Qin Tian easily memorized the mnemonic for the steps thanks to his excellent memory. What remained was spending time training his footwork.

”I can practice the Wave Striding Technique gradually, but that matter must not be delayed!”

Thinking of something, Qin Tian immediately took out a suit from his backpack, changed into it, tidied himself up, and after making sure that Murong Fei upstairs was sound asleep, he quietly slinked out of the villa...
