Chapter 248 The sisters start fighting
Studio:
"This is called 'compliance harassment'! Using the excuse of maintaining a public image to make physical contact—this girl knows the rules of the workplace!"
"Report! We've noticed that Brother Feng's ears are red! Although his face still has that indifferent look, his body language tells a different story!"
"A textbook example of 'Stop messing around!' It expresses resistance without completely breaking off relations, leaving room for continued harassment. Brother Feng is a master of the art of playing hard to get!"
"Sister: I'm on the fifth floor—you think I'm flirting with you, but actually I'm testing your professional ethics. Brother Feng: I'm in the atmosphere—I know you're testing me, so I'm deliberately making you think you're about to succeed."
........................
Suddenly, the door to the ticket office was pushed open.
Everyone instinctively turned their heads and found that the person who entered was the deputy director—Tang Xiaofu.
She had changed into a black tracksuit, and her previously styled hair was now tied into a single ponytail, making her look smart and capable.
Chiba Saori, Songxi, and Lin Feng immediately stood up and respectfully greeted, "Greetings, Headmaster."
Tang Xiaofu raised her hand to gesture for everyone to sit down, then glared at Tang Xiaorui:
"Xiaorui, they're working. Why are you disturbing them?"
Tang Xiaorui pouted and muttered under her breath, "I came to visit the frontline workers, is that not allowed?"
"A word of condolence?" Tang Xiaofu's gaze swept over the coffee cup beside Lin Feng, then fell on the empty tables of Chiba Saori and Song west. Her tone turned cold. "Is your way of offering condolences so biased?"
Tang Xiaorui puffed out her chest defiantly: "Lin Feng is outstanding, he deserves to be favored."
"Have you forgotten your father's advice? Don't date your employees, you'll ruin him!"
Tang Xiaorui blushed, but her voice became even harsher:
"Who's in a relationship? If I were in a relationship, I'd be sitting in Lin Feng's lap by now! Why would I be keeping my distance like this?"
"Also, don't act like you're in a superior position and boss me around. You were only born a few minutes before me."
Tang Xiaofu's eyes darkened, and she walked up to Tang Xiaorui, her voice low but each word as cold as ice:
"Those few minutes" mean facing the world before you do, and understanding the meaning of responsibility before you do!
"If you keep acting so willfully and recklessly, I'll have to ask Dad to come and see how his youngest daughter 'comforts' her employees!"
After saying that, she took a step back, her tone returning to normal: "Now, leave immediately. Don't make me say it a second time."
Tang Xiaorui stomped her foot heavily, pouted, and left the ticket room unwillingly.
[Ding! Tang Xiaorui's favorability towards the host increases by 10]
[Current Affection Level: 45 / 100]
Lin Feng: "..."
What does this mean?
The more your sister tries to stop you, the more determined you become, huh?!
A brief silence fell over the ticket booth.
Tang Xiaofu took a deep breath, walked to Lin Feng's side, and her tone softened considerably: "I'm sorry, my sister has caused you trouble."
Lin Feng shook his head: "It's nothing. She has a cheerful personality and is quite energetic."
Tang Xiaofu suddenly looked up, her gaze meeting his directly: "You wouldn't... have fallen for her, would you?"
Lin Feng quickly shook his head, his tone sincere: "I wouldn't dare, I still want to clear the game alive."
Tang Xiaofu nodded slightly: "Good to know."
Lin Feng's heart skipped a beat, and the instant she approached, he immediately let out a soft exclamation in his mind:
"Desire Insight, activate!"
An invisible wave struck Tang Xiaofu precisely.
The next second, a pale blue light screen slowly unfolded before his eyes.
From a young age, she was expected to be perfect, strong, and shoulder responsibilities that weren't hers.
Her father's strictness and indifference made her accustomed to suppressing all her emotions.
She envied her younger sister's freedom and being favored, yet she had to play the role of the always reliable older sister.
She hoped someone would care about her, even if it was just a simple greeting or a small gesture...
A vague emotion swept through Lin Feng's mind.
This seemingly indestructible iceberg, in fact, yearns for something so simple, even humble.
His gaze unconsciously shifted downwards and landed on her shoes.
White sneakers, the lace on the left side is a little loose.
Almost without hesitation, Lin Feng squatted down and said gently, "Director, your shoelaces are untied."
After saying that, he reached out and tied it for her.
Tang Xiaofu stood there, stunned, her eyes slightly glazed over.
As far as I can remember, even my father never tied her shoelaces.
Lin Feng's fingers were nimble, and he habitually tied a neat bow, only to find that the knot on the other shoe was a simple single knot, asymmetrical on both sides.
So he casually untied the other one and retied it into the same bow.
After fastening it, he stood up and clapped his hands: "All done."
Tang Xiaofu glanced down and saw that the symmetrical bows on the two shoelaces were neat and pretty.
Her face remained expressionless, but her voice was slightly softer than before: "Thank you, please continue with your work."
[Ding, Tang Xiaofu's favorability towards the host increases by 10]
Current favorability rating: 35/100

Studio:
"I give Feng-ge full marks for that attention to detail! He was just tying his shoelaces, but he actually found a crack in his sister's armor!"
"You have to dodge and block when it comes to your younger sister, but you have to kneel down and serve when it comes to your older sister—Brother Feng, you know how to apply double standards."
"Am I the only one who noticed that moment of blankness in my sister's eyes? Brother Feng's move was a precise strike into her emotional blind spot."
"When dealing with twins, the most important thing isn't choosing which one to choose, but making them both feel that you understand them better. Brother Feng has already grasped the essence!"
........................
Time quickly came to noon.
The park's public address system announced on time that all chosen ones could go to the staff canteen for a meal.
But at the end, the broadcast added a warning in a cold tone:
"You are absolutely forbidden from disclosing your job duties to other Chosen Ones. Otherwise, you will be eliminated!"
Lin Feng nodded knowingly; the underlying logic was clear:
If communication were possible, people taking on the same job tomorrow could avoid risks in advance—something the supernatural world clearly doesn't want to see.
At that moment, the door to the ticket office was pushed open.
A figure swayed in.
The newcomer was a woman, dressed in a black, tight-fitting uniform that accentuated her sleek yet dangerous curves.
Her long, black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, with slightly curled ends, giving her a wild and beautiful look.
What is most striking are her vertical pupils, which gleam with a slightly cold light, and whose gaze carries an eerie and alluring quality.
"I'm here to fill in for you."
As the woman spoke, her gaze swept across the room, and when it landed on Lin Feng, her vertical pupils visibly brightened slightly.
As she brushed past Lin Feng, she slapped his buttocks with lightning speed, the gesture as natural as a casual greeting.
Lin Feng shuddered and froze for half a second.
He forced himself not to turn around, but inwardly he couldn't help but frantically call out to the system:
"System...can I set an on/off switch for my charm stat?"
"I'm here to complete the ghost stories, not to be a 'charming guy trial card'!"
"Can we turn this passive aura off?!"
System: [Charm is also a kind of strength, host, please adapt accordingly.]
