Upon entering the master bedroom, Lin Feng saw Lin Xiaoman sprawled on the comforter, fast asleep.
She was wearing a pair of shorts, and her two fair, slender legs were on full display.
Lin Feng walked over and yanked the comforter right out from under her.
Lin Xiaoman, who had been deep in her dreams, was suddenly jolted awake when the comforter was yanked from beneath her.
Naturally, she was startled.
Once she was awake, she frantically scanned her surroundings.
"What’s wrong? Having a nightmare?"
Lin Feng looked at Lin Xiaoman with a concerned expression.
He asked with feigned urgency.
Seeing the comforter in Lin Feng’s hands, it was all too clear to Lin Xiaoman what had just happened.
"Lin Feng!"
Lin Xiaoman’s voice rang out, bordering on hysterical.
"Stop shouting!"
"A fancy dinner, two thousand per person."
"If you don’t want to go, your sister-in-law and I will just go by ourselves."
Seeing Lin Xiaoman on the verge of exploding, Lin Feng said nonchalantly.
His words were enough to shut Lin Xiaoman up instantly.
"I’m going! Why wouldn’t I go?"
"Thanks so much to my dear brother for waking me up at a time like this."
Lin Xiaoman said this,
nodding through gritted teeth.
Clearly,
the promise of a fancy dinner wasn’t enough to quell the girl’s anger at being woken up.
But that was fine, too.
At least, in Lin Feng’s eyes,
this version of Lin Xiaoman was much more adorable.
"You have five minutes. If you’re not ready by then, we’re leaving without you."
With that, Lin Feng took the thin blanket he was holding and tossed it right over Lin Xiaoman’s head.
’So this is what they call playing favorites, huh?’
Lin Xiaoman panicked when she heard that.
After all, while Lin Feng usually seemed easygoing, he always followed through on his word.
’What if he really leaves without me? Wouldn’t that be humiliating?’
Spurred on by the promise of a two-thousand-yuan feast, Lin Xiaoman moved with surprising speed.
He’d given her five minutes,
but she was ready and standing before him in four and a half.
"Brother, I’m ready."
Although she had only put on a bit of lipstick,
Lin Xiaoman was a natural beauty.
At least, she looked a lot better than the disheveled state she’d been in moments before.
"Then have a seat for a bit."
"We’re waiting for your sister-in-law."
Lin Feng glanced at Lin Xiaoman and nodded.
"Huh? We’re not leaving now?"
Lin Xiaoman was taken aback.
"There’s no rush."
"I made the reservation for eight. If we wait a little longer, the timing will be just right."
As he said this, a brilliant smile spread across his face.
’Now *this* is what you call preferential treatment.’
"You!"
Hearing this, Lin Xiaoman was furious all over again.
"We still have to wait this long? Then why did you rush me?!"
Facing Lin Feng,
Lin Xiaoman felt a sense of powerless frustration.
"I was just worried you’d take too long with your makeup and make us late, wasn’t I?"
Lin Feng shrugged.
"Especially with your beginner-level skills, you look better without makeup."
Lin Feng added, twisting the knife.
Lin Xiaoman herself was naturally very pretty.
She looked perfectly fine with a bare face.
She really didn’t need makeup.
Especially given her makeup skills.
"You... I..."
Before Lin Xiaoman could say anything else, Lin Feng cut her off.
"’You’ what? ’I’ what?"
"Do you still want to have that fancy dinner or not?"
With just that one casual sentence, Lin Feng silenced her.
"I do!"
Lin Xiaoman said in a huff, then
plopped down on the sofa next to Lin Feng.
Then she muttered under her breath.
"If I don’t make you spend four thousand on my two-thousand-per-person share today, I’ll... I’ll take your last name!"
Seeing Lin Xiaoman throwing her little tantrum,
Lin Feng couldn’t help but laugh.
"First of all, there’s no way you could eat that much. And second, even if you took my last name, you’d still be a Lin."
"None of your business!"
Lin Xiaoman shot Lin Feng a glare and scooted further away from him.
"Hey, you think that Swarovski necklace is about to be sold out?"
"That kind of thing is probably in high demand, right?"
"It’s a limited edition, after all."
With just a few words, Lin Feng made
Lin Xiaoman, who had just moved away, scoot right back over.
"My shoulders are stiff."
Lin Feng didn’t even look at her.
Lin Xiaoman took the hint and started massaging his shoulders.
"Sir, is this pressure alright?"
Lin Xiaoman asked.
"A little more pressure would be great,"
Lin Feng replied.
"I’m afraid that’s not possible, because I haven’t eaten yet!"
Lin Xiaoman gave his shoulder a sharp knead.
HISS!
Lin Feng sucked in a sharp breath.
"So, sir, how is the pressure now?"
Lin Xiaoman said, giving him another hard squeeze.
"That’s enough, that’s enough! My shoulder’s suddenly not stiff anymore."
Lin Feng quickly dodged to the side.
But Lin Xiaoman had finally gotten her chance.
How could she possibly let him go so easily?
"That won’t do, sir. You booked me for the whole session."
"If I don’t finish the service, they’ll deduct my pay!"
Lin Xiaoman continued to chase after him, still trying to massage him.
"No, stay away!"
Lin Feng cried out.
In truth, it didn’t really hurt.
After all, with Lin Xiaoman’s strength, how could she possibly have hurt him?
Su Ruoxi, having finished her makeup, came out of the bathroom to see the Lin siblings fooling around.
She couldn’t help but smile with fond exasperation.
Those two really were a classic pair of frenemies.
When they were apart, they were always thinking of each other, but when they were together, they were constantly bickering.
"Alright, alright, your sister-in-law is out. Let’s go eat!"
"Time to eat! Stop it already!"
