Chapter 29: Chapter 29 Chen Feng Happily Gains an Adopted Son, and Ning Rongrong Backfires When Speaking Ill of Chen Feng to Two Girls
Chen Feng turned to Ma Hongjun and asked, "What's your current soul master level?"
"Great Soul Master," Ma Hongjun replied proudly.
"Cuicui, you may not know the benefits of being a Great Soul Master. A Great Soul Master can receive a subsidy of 10 gold coins from the Spirit Hall every month. That's 120 gold - soul coins a year. Just think about it, what does that mean?"
Listening to Chen Feng's words, Cuicui's eyes widened round, and her face was filled with astonishment.
For a rural girl who grew up in poverty, gold - soul coins were not just currency; they were an unattainable dream. In her world, gold - soul coins were like a legend from another world, something that could bring stability to the family and wipe away the worries of life.
One gold - soul coin was enough for an ordinary rural family of three to live on for several months. If a couple lived frugally, they might not be able to save up one gold - soul coin throughout the year.
And now, Chen Feng was saying that Ma Hongjun could get 120 gold - soul coins a year. Her hands unconsciously clenched tightly, then relaxed, because she felt an unprecedented excitement. She imagined a life where instead of hoes and sweat in her fields, there would be gold and wealth.

After hearing Chen Feng's words, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but frown her delicate brows. She asked in a low and reserved voice, "Brother Chen Feng, is it really okay to do this? Isn't this kind of approach a bit... inappropriate?"
"Zhuqing, you have to understand that in our society, having three wives and four concubines is allowed. Of course, it's also possible for several women to serve one man."
After all, this was the evil feudal society. Think about it, in the ancient feudal society, there was no such thing as monogamy. Yes, it was precisely because of this kind of system that so many people dreamed of traveling back to ancient times.
"Hongjun, well, let's not break up. I don't mind if you find another woman," Cuicui said with a blushing face.
"Okay, Cuicui, don't worry. No matter how many women I have in the future, I'll treat you fairly and never let you suffer the slightest grievance," Ma Hongjun replied happily.
He was overjoyed at this moment. Ah, this was just wonderful. Chen Feng not only didn't bully him with his power but also helped him solve such a big problem. He really... didn't know how to thank him enough.
[Ding, it is detected that Ma Hongjun has emotions of surprise + gratitude, and the emotion value + 300]
Ma Hongjun and Cuicui were being affectionate for a while. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he let go of Cuicui's hand and walked towards Chen Feng.
There was a hint of confusion in Chen Feng's eyes.
Just as his thoughts were intertwined, Ma Hongjun's actions were even more astonishing.
He actually knelt down on one knee and paid a solemn respect to Chen Feng.
"Hongjun, what are you doing? This is too much."
But Ma Hongjun said with a serious face, "Father - in - law, please accept your son's bow."
Chen Feng was stunned. This unexpected change left him gaping in disbelief.
A question suddenly popped up in his mind: Does this guy have the surname Lü?
Is it so popular to find an adoptive father these days?
"From now on, you're my big brother. I'll follow you through fire and water."
Ma Hongjun insisted on bowing.
...
In the girls' dormitory of Shrek Academy.
Although she was a bit reluctant, Ning Rongrong still became roommates with Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing.
After all, there were only three girls in the academy.
Since she was here, she had to consider improving the relationship with her roommates a bit.
However, in Ning Rongrong's opinion, although she had a conflict with Xiao Wu first, obviously Zhu Zhuqing was her "rival".
Between the two, it was better to make up with Xiao Wu first.
After some minor efforts, Ning Rongrong finally managed to ease the atmosphere in the dormitory a little.
"I'll tell you a secret. You mustn't tell anyone else."
Xiao Wu immediately perked up her sharp ears and leaned in, looking extremely excited.
"To be honest with you, actually, Chen Feng only likes men. He doesn't like women."
Ning Rongrong's voice reached the ears of Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing.
This was big news!
Xiao Wu was stunned in surprise.
[Ding, it is detected that Xiao Wu has a surprised emotion, and the emotion value + 100]
"How do you know that?" Xiao Wu asked in confusion, her curiosity completely piqued.
"Chen Feng had a fiancée before. They were married for over a year, and she was still a virgin. Now you understand, right?"
A glint of cunning flickered in Ning Rongrong's eyes, as if saying this secret was only for them. Of course, she wasn't stupid enough to say that the wife was herself. Her aim was to make Zhu Zhuqing suspicious and "see through" Chen Feng's true nature, and then break up with him quickly. Then, no one would compete with her for Chen Feng. Hehe, thinking of this, Ning Rongrong felt a bit of smugness inside. The joy of her carefully - crafted plan on the verge of success made her secretly pleased in her heart.
[Ding, it is detected that Ning Rongrong has an expectant emotion, and the emotion value + 100]
"Could it be that Chen Feng is a pervert?" Xiao Wu was starting to believe it now. She gently covered her red lips with her delicate hand, and her beautiful eyes were filled with a look of disbelief.
"Xiao Wu, don't listen to her." Zhu Zhuqing's voice came leisurely.
"Xiao Wu, what I said is true. Chen Feng really has a wife who is still a virgin. If you don't believe me, you can go and ask in the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect." Ning Rongrong was almost on the verge of swearing.
Xiao Wu was a bit confused. Why were Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong saying different things? But her little mind clearly understood that one of them must be telling the truth and the other was lying.
"Humph, Chen Feng definitely likes women. I have evidence." Zhu Zhuqing said confidently.
"What evidence?"
"Come here."
Xiao Wu walked over, and Zhu Zhuqing whispered a few words in her ear.
"This... how could this be?" Xiao Wu was first startled, took a sharp breath, and then her face turned a bit red.
[Ding, it is detected that Xiao Wu has a shy emotion, and the emotion value + 100]
Ning Rongrong sensed something was wrong and asked, "What evidence do you have?"
Xiao Wu was about to speak, but then she thought that this was Zhu Zhuqing's privacy after all. So the words that were on the tip of her tongue were held back.
"Xiao Wu, if you have something to say, just say it directly. Don't be so hesitant." Ning Rongrong couldn't help feeling a bit anxious, and there was a hint of provocation in her words.
Before Xiao Wu could speak, Zhu Zhuqing puffed out her chest and said confidently, "Because Chen Feng touched me here. And he seemed to like it very much."
Shock appeared on Ning Rongrong's face. Her eyes widened as if she couldn't believe what she was hearing. He actually touched this vixen's chest! This... couldn't be true!
[Ding, it is detected that Ning Rongrong has a shocked emotion, and the emotion value + 150]
Suddenly, a flash of anger passed through Ning Rongrong's eyes. It burned in her pupils, leaping furiously. An indescribable sense of grievance welled up in her heart. Chen Feng has never touched me. But this vixen got there first. Humph! I don't even know how many times he's touched her. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Ning Rongrong was on the verge of losing her composure. Why! Why did Chen Feng touch her but not me!
[Ding, it is detected that Ning Rongrong has an angry emotion, and the emotion value + 200]
But then, she felt a bit sad. A self - deprecating smile hung on the corner of her lips as her thoughts drifted back to that wedding night.
It was all because she had looked down on Chen Feng wholeheartedly. They had been married for a year, yet they hadn't even consummated their marriage. She hadn't even allowed him to touch her.
She could only blame herself for being so stubborn.
[Ding, it is detected that Ning Rongrong has a regretful emotion, and the emotion value + 250]
A faint glimmer flashed in Ning Rongrong's heart.
Alas, if she hadn't been so stubborn and had let Chen Feng touch her more... Maybe her chest would have become bigger too.
Ah, this idea seemed quite good.
Hehe, the little witch's battle plan.
Humph, she would definitely not lose to this vixen again.
Thinking of this, the corner of Ning Rongrong's mouth curved up into a proud arc once more.
