Chapter 51: Chapter 51

Looking at Bai Susu’s eyes full of curiosity, Feng Qiwu said disdainfully, "Isn’t it simple? Feng Wuchen thinks that maid is his, but she’s been my secret agent all along."

So that maid is a double agent?

Is this a real-life Mission Impossible?

But that’s secondary.

The most important thing is that any mistake or delay in any step would ruin everything.

How does Feng Qiwu precisely control the timing between all these steps?

Thinking of this, Bai Susu couldn’t help but ask the biggest question on her mind.

Seeing her clear, dark eyes staring at him unblinkingly, Feng Qiwu arrogantly raised his chin slightly, but his words were extremely infuriating, "Isn’t this an easy thing? Why even ask?"

Why do I feel like I’ve been looked down upon?

But she could also see that Feng Qiwu genuinely didn’t think it was difficult.

For a moment, Bai Susu couldn’t help saying, "This should be the hardest thing, right?"

What if Feng Changge changes his mind halfway and goes to another tavern?

What if by the time he arrives, Bai Wanwan and Feng Wuchen are already together?

What if Feng Changge hears there’s no vacancy and leaves because he can’t be bothered to wait?

There are so many unexpected events that could happen, right?

Seeing her bewildered look, Feng Qiwu found it amusing.

Then he said, "Because every move they make is under my control, even if something goes wrong midway, I have the confidence to pull them back. Understand now?"

It’s not that he can’t calculate; he’s just too lazy to.

Like how Feng Wuchen loves to eat and especially enjoys sweet squirrel fish. Apart from him, who else would know this?

He’s seen through them long ago.

That’s why he easily noticed she wasn’t the original Bai Susu.

The original Bai Susu was never this pure and clean aura.

Moreover, the current her, even with a sweet and innocent face, can give outsiders a sense that she has a strong sense of boundaries, not someone who flaunts her beauty to bully others.

The way she looks at him and others is entirely different.

Otherwise, why else would he be tempted?

After hearing Feng Qiwu’s words, Bai Susu was shocked.

No wonder those side characters always marveled at Feng Qiwu’s near-demonic intelligence but regretted that he died early from madness.

No wonder many people say that if they traveled back to ancient times, they wouldn’t survive an episode!

The ancient people’s minds were much more complex than those in the relatively simple modern environment.

If scheming had levels, Feng Qiwu would be at the royal level.

To clearly calculate and consider the time spent on each person’s actions requires not just precision but also an understanding of their psychological motivations.

Feng Qiwu is evidently a master at manipulating people’s hearts.

Of course, knowing all this, Bai Susu wasn’t afraid.

On the contrary, she immediately looked at Feng Qiwu with eyes full of admiration and envy, "Shu Kuang, you’re amazing! You’re like a researcher of human behavior; I really admire you."

Hearing this, Feng Qiwu couldn’t help but slightly raise an eyebrow.

"Researcher of human behavior?" What kind of weird term is that?

"Uh, it’s probably a professional who studies the meaning of people’s actions and behaviors," Bai Susu explained.

Feng Qiwu squinted at her explanation.

Researcher of Human Behavior? Professional? Research?

Is this how people talked where she used to live?

Such terminology never existed in Da Qin historically.

All of a sudden, Feng Qiwu’s eyes darkened slightly, but he was afraid of scaring her, so he didn’t ask any further questions and pretended not to know.

However, he really liked how she looked at him with those starry eyes.

He’s not someone who gets a big head easily, but under her gaze, he felt a surge of confidence.

No wonder heroes throughout history have loved beauties.

With such trustful and admiring eyes watching, which man wouldn’t instantly gather endless courage and strength to be a hero for a smile from the beauty?

Suddenly being watched by Feng Qiwu’s deep gaze, Bai Susu couldn’t help but feel a little tense inside.

Did she say something wrong?

Well, Feng Qiwu is so smart, how could he not notice the oddity in her words?

There probably was no such thing as researchers of human behavior in ancient times...

Just before she could find an excuse for herself, she saw Feng Qiwu nod at her.

"I see, where did you see that? Quite interesting," Feng Qiwu didn’t wait for Bai Susu to make an excuse; he had already covered for her.

Bai Susu felt relieved upon hearing this and quickly nodded, "Yes, I read it in a book. You’re so smart; you guessed it right away."

"But it was just something I skimmed at a bookstore, and since the content was dull, I didn’t buy it."

What would she do if Feng Qiwu asked for the book?

And upon hearing this, Feng Qiwu nodded and then asked, "I heard you’ve become interested in medical books lately?"

Bai Susu was a bit surprised, but since Feng Qiwu had hidden guards around her, it was normal for him to know such things.

So, she nodded, "Yeah, medical books are quite interesting."

Now it was Feng Qiwu’s turn to be surprised.

"Medical books... interesting?" Feng Qiwu looked at her with a weird and speechless expression.

Except for those genuinely interested in studying medicine or medical geniuses, who would find medical books interesting?

He had read medical books himself, and while he found no difficulty in reading them, just remembering the endless knowledge of herbs felt extremely boring.

If not for his own health, he wouldn’t bother with medical books.

He didn’t expect she would find them interesting.

Seeing Feng Qiwu’s complex look, Bai Susu couldn’t help but cough lightly, "It’s all right."

"Since you like them, I have many medical books. I’ll have Ling Han bring some to you tomorrow," Feng Qiwu said gently.

Hearing this, Bai Susu’s eyes immediately lit up.

She knew that the medical books Feng Qiwu could find were on a completely different level from what she had access to now.

The books he got must be the kind of ancient texts that the Imperial Hospital wouldn’t easily share. Latest content published on novelꞁire.net

Seeing her full of anticipation and excitement, Feng Qiwu nodded slightly, "Would I lie to you?"

"Thank you, Shu Kuang! You are so good to me! Luckily no other women have discovered your goodness, or I’d have so many rivals!" Bai Susu said with a grateful expression.
