My System Forces Me to Live off Women

Chapter 331 - 269: Shut Up!

"Your opponent has never been me!"

Great, eliminated one!

Zhao Qingge squinted her eyes, took a deep breath, and looked at Li Peifeng, raising her voice: "When is Wu Wenyue coming?"

"Should be soon..."

"Ring ring~~"

"I’ll go open the door."

Speak of the devil, and he shall appear. As the doorbell rang, Huang Tianxuan’s eyes lit up with an expectant expression, and she was the first to head to the door.

"Hey, is it Yueyue? I’ll open the door for you..."

Zhao Qingge, however, turned and went into the kitchen: "What stage is the cooking at? Do you need me to do anything?"

Old Zhao was wearing a small gray suit, and even if she was in slippers, with her slightly angry expression, she still had the demeanor of a disciplinary officer.

Li Peifeng didn’t dare let her help in the kitchen, and immediately shook his head: "No need, you just rest..."

"I’m going to stir-fry, you go do something else."

Zhao Qingge’s face instantly turned cold, and her tone became firm: "Give me an apron!"

This is... a declaration of sovereignty?

Li Peifeng had a realization, feeling Old Zhao’s determined intent, so he let her be: "Then you do it, I’ll mix a cold dish."

As a result, when Wu Wenyue entered the house, she saw the master and student busily cooking in the kitchen, and her eyebrows immediately furrowed.

During the time the three of them lived together, Xu Manning was usually responsible for buying groceries, she and Li Peifeng would cook together, and then the three of them would enjoy the meal. Even though cooking was tiring, Wu Wenyue cherished and enjoyed these small moments of warmth and affection in everyday life.

But now, is someone taking her place?

[Causing a scene, this disrespectful old teacher dares to crash my scene?]

"Oh." Huang Tianxuan was also a bit surprised, then shook her head with a smile, thinking Old Zhao is just copying me, putting on a little act!

Wu Wenyue quickly regained her composure, walked into the kitchen, and seemed surprised: "Professor Zhao, you can cook?"

"Yes."

Zhao Qingge glanced at her, nodded as a form of greeting, then instructed: "Peifeng, bring a plate."

"On it."

Li Peifeng handed over an empty plate but was snatched by Wu Wenyue, who not only wanted the plate but also aimed to seize the wok from Zhao Qingge’s hands, as if reprimanding: "How can you let your mentor cook? She’s a guest, Peifeng, do you have any manners?!"

Zhao Qingge, unprepared, lost the wok to the other, her expression froze and then she smiled, saying: "Are you the owner of this house?"

"At most, I’m a half-owner; Manning is the real owner."

Seeing Zhao Qingge’s puzzled expression, Wu Wenyue was slightly surprised: "You didn’t know? He didn’t tell you that this house is also Manning’s, and she’s just letting Peifeng live here."

Old Zhao truly didn’t know, thinking Li Peifeng moved to distance himself from the two girls, but now it seems the move was in vain. Moving from A to B, he still couldn’t escape the women’s den!

"Li Peifeng!"

Zhao Qingge’s expression changed, interrogating: "What did you say back then?!"

Li Peifeng quickly mixed the cold dish, his mind racing, finally let out a long sigh, reciting a poem: "The green cypress on the hill, the boulders in the stream. Life between heaven and earth, a fleeting traveler we seem. On reflection, aren’t we all guests in this world, masters of our own? What difference does it make to be a guest or a host?"

"Ha~" Huang Tianxuan outside the kitchen couldn’t help but laugh.

[Still joking around, you’re asking for trouble...]

Zhao Qingge truly got angry, her lips trembling with rage, looking at Li Peifeng as if ready to strike at any moment.

[Enough of your lies, I’m ending this today!]

After plating the dish, Wu Wenyue set down the now empty wok, eyes blazing: "What did he tell you?"

[It’s time, it’s time for Xiaofeng to make the final decision! Today, not tomorrow!]

The atmosphere was about to spiral out of control, feeling the tension among the women, Li Peifeng was conflicted but managed to stay outwardly calm: "The food’s ready, let’s eat first."

With that, he took Zhao Qingge’s hand in his right hand, picked up the cold dish with his left, and headed to the dining room.

Holding hands slightly calmed Old Zhao’s anger, she glanced swiftly at the other two girls, letting out a barely audible hum before following him.

"You’re really bold..."

Wu Wenyue gritted her teeth, cursed quietly, and also brought the dish out.

The dining table was against the wall, with five seats, two facing each other and one at the aisle side. Li Peifeng intended to sit there but Huang Tianxuan occupied it first, while Zhao Qingge sat on the south side, and Wu Wenyue sat on the north side.

This meant Li Peifeng had to choose to sit either beside his mentor or beside Brother Yue.

After a 0.1-second hesitation, Mr. Li chose to sit next to Zhao Qingge...

"Bang~"

Wu Wenyue not subtly kicked across from the opposite side, striking Li Peifeng’s calf, and seeing the pained twitch of the main character’s face, she coldly smiled and said: "Get some alcohol, I want a drink."

The physical pain was nothing compared to the current serious situation. Li Peifeng didn’t even rub his leg, frowning: "Everyone drove here, why drink... did you walk?"

"I want to stay with you."

Wu Wenyue looked at the two of them, slightly lifting her head, and said proudly: "Share a bed with you! I missed you, is that not allowed?"

Revealing cards already?

Seeing Zhao Qingge squint her eyes slightly, her expression neutral, Li Peifeng was distressed, deciding not to directly respond to the sleeping issue, but instead handed out tableware to the group, saying: "Don’t drink, there’s no alcohol at home anyway, let’s just have a good meal."

"Feng, cut a piece of the lamb chops for your sis."

Huang Tianxuan played with the dining knife, thinking the scene wasn’t chaotic enough, deliberately adding to Mr. Li’s troubles.

"Go ahead, I roasted plenty, enough for everyone."

Li Peifeng started cutting the lamb chops, sharing a rib strip with each girl, but except for Huang Tianxuan, no one started eating.

Zhao Qingge surveyed the group, speaking calmly: "Peifeng, before eating, there are some things you must clarify!"

Li Peifeng remained silent, but Wu Wenyue quickly spoke: "I think he’s already explained, but you might not know, Professor Zhao. Xiaofeng has already been introduced to Manning’s family as her boyfriend, and he will meet my parents during winter break, also as a boyfriend."

Pausing, Wu Wenyue appeared slightly embarrassed: "It’s rather awkward to say, but it’s true that both Manning and I are in a relationship with him. The three of us can accept each other, though we don’t know how to convince our parents. But we’ve decided no matter their opinions, we’re staying together. Marriage, a certificate, are optional, but we will likely hold a wedding banquet, inviting only close friends. As Xiaofeng’s mentor, we’ll sure invite you.

Going all in? Going all in is wisdom!

Starting all in is even greater wisdom!!

The table fell into silence.

Zhao Qingge’s face turned red then white, expressions shifting, but unexpectedly, she didn’t explode. She just nodded slightly and said: "She’s done talking, Peifeng, is there anything else you want to say?"

What else to say? Nothing I say can overturn the situation.

The meal just started, the game had just begun, but Wu Wenyue’s all-in move broke my defenses on three fronts and left my base vulnerable, how could I possibly turn it around?

Li Peifeng paused in silence for a moment, then wrapped his left arm around Zhao Qingge’s shoulders,h, fixing her head with his right hand, and kissed her directly.

At this moment, words seemed powerless, he needed to use action to prove his feelings for Zhao Qingge! Even if it looked daft to others!

Zhao Qingge never expected Li Peifeng to be so bold, her pupils shrank, her mouth opened furiously, her whole self stunned, defenselessly receiving his earnest kiss.

The teacher and student actually French kissed publicly!

"Splat~"

Huang Tianxuan seeing this, her hand jerked, dropping the lamb chop onto the plate with a clear sound. Her shining eyes momentarily dulled, her expression turning panicked and confused, her lips opening to speak but ended only whispering: "You, you all? And no alcohol involved!"

"Boom~~~"

Wu Wenyue’s cheeks turned bright red, not from shyness, but from humiliation and provoked anger. She raised a fist, pounding heavily on the table, causing the slab to crack with a ’crack’ sound, tearing in half, yelling with all her might: "Stop it!!!"
