#298 - Chapter 298: Control

Late at night, the lights in the Cheng Mansion gradually went out, leaving only a few strands of moonlight to spill onto the window of Su Min's guest room. She curled up in bed, her heart as complex and difficult to decipher as the night.

Becoming Cheng Feng's concubine was both a turning point in her destiny and the beginning of a responsibility. From now on, her every move would be closely linked to the Cheng family.

Meanwhile, in his study, Cheng Feng gazed at the black wooden box in his hand, which contained the Black Jade Regenerating Ointment he treasured. This precious ointment had allowed two experts in the early stage of Bone Forging to be reborn.

One was Wu Feng, a devotee of the Hongmen, and the other was his legal wife, Zhao Wei. Now, this ointment was about to be used to treat Su Qiang, a master at the Bone Forging Completion stage, which would be a significant boost to the Hongmen's strength.

Cheng Feng secretly calculated that Su Qiang's joining would undoubtedly add an undeniable force to the Hongmen.

In this world where the strong are revered, having one more expert at the Bone Forging Completion stage meant one more layer of security and one more piece of capital to contend for dominance.

Moreover, based on the deep brother-sister relationship between Su Qiang and Su Min, he had more trust and expectations for Su Qiang.

Cheng Feng was also clear that all of this came at a price. Su Min's sacrifice and compromise were the prerequisites for him to obtain this power.

There might be some unfavorable factors in the future, but considering that Wei Zhuang had already broken through to the Viscera Training stage, Su Qiang, this Bone Forging Completion expert, probably couldn't turn the tables.

As the night deepened, Cheng Feng put away his thoughts and carefully stored the Black Jade Regenerating Ointment.

Tomorrow would be a new beginning, both for Su Min and for the entire Cheng family.

He put away the Silk Thread Control Art in his hand and looked at the information on his panel:

Silk Thread Control Art: (Entry Level 120 / 200)

Cheng Feng revealed a smile. His progress in the auxiliary technique for the Bone Forging stage was still very fast. Viscera Training was within reach!

Machine Dog also sent Baibafa some information. It had encountered four unusual beasts.

The specific locations had been marked, waiting for Cheng Feng to confirm.

Cheng Feng naturally wouldn't go to deal with uncertain exotic beasts himself. He directly assigned the task to the Hongmen, letting the Skin Refining disciples of the Hongmen capture them alive, directly offering a reward of five hundred taels of silver and a chance to learn a Hongmen martial skill.

It was said that those disciples were very motivated. The silver was okay, but learning martial skills without merit points was a great deal.

The Hongmen was currently in a period of recuperation. Without major actions, there was naturally no high merit point income, so they were just waiting for work to come their way. And here it was?

Wei Zhuang was still on the road, probably taking some time. After dealing with most of the affairs at hand, Cheng Feng walked towards the inner courtyard with a swagger.

Whose plaque should he flip tonight? ?

A little conflicted! ! !

For the past two days, the Su siblings had been meticulously cared for in the Cheng Mansion, with plenty to eat and drink, and the servants were discreet and didn't gossip.

After all, Cheng Feng hated those who liked to badmouth others behind their backs the most. In the beginning, two servants didn't know any better, and he had them beaten to death with sticks.

Anyway, these servants were all bought by him, and he naturally held the power of life and death in his hands.

After establishing this rule in front of everyone, the other servants easily understood the preferences of this Master of the Mansion.

Seeing that her brother was well taken care of in the Cheng Mansion, Su Min also began to tour the entire Cheng Mansion with Cheng Feng.

Along the way, Cheng Feng asked with a smile, "Miss Su, are you satisfied with our Cheng Mansion?"

Su Min didn't answer, but just nodded slightly. Seeing her so weak, Cheng Feng couldn't help but feel very puzzled.

He thought to himself, how could Su Min, who was decisive, intelligent, and capable on the road to protecting her brother, become so weak and frail once she arrived at the Cheng Mansion?

Seeing that Su Min had been familiar with the Cheng Mansion for two days, Cheng Feng said frankly, "I have already stabilized your brother's injuries with acupuncture in the past two days. During these two days, the Cheng Mansion has also prepared everything for the wedding. Tomorrow, let's get things done!"

Hearing this, Su Min's face turned pale, but looking at the solemn Cheng Feng, she had no choice but to agree. "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Cheng Feng stepped forward and took Su Min's hand. There were still marks from using a sword on the tiger's mouth of her hand. Su Min tried to dodge but couldn't, and Cheng Feng directly hugged Su Min in his arms.

Looking directly into Su Min's eyes, he said seriously, "Since you are marrying into the Cheng Mansion, you are naturally a member of my Cheng family. I hope you can get along with them harmoniously, and I hope you can have a stable life in the Cheng Mansion.

Aren't your enemies the Lin family? It just so happens that after your brother recovers from his injuries, he can join the Hongmen Consecration Hall and lead the Hongmen disciples to fight in the Prefectural City.

I am confident that I can avenge your Su family within a year."

Su Min bit her lower lip tightly, trying not to let her tears fall, but the crystal clear moisture in her eyes had already betrayed her emotions.

Seeing this, Cheng Feng couldn't help but feel a trace of pity. He gently stroked Su Min's head and comforted her softly, "Don't cry anymore, it won't look good if your eyes are swollen."

He gently embraced Su Min and patted her back gently, trying to give her some comfort in this way.

Hearing this, Su Min's sobs gradually stopped, but she still leaned tightly in Cheng Feng's arms. She raised her head, looked at Cheng Feng with teary eyes, and asked softly, "Will you really help me get revenge?"

Cheng Feng nodded and replied firmly, "Of course, I will definitely do what I say."

Hearing this, Su Min's tears finally couldn't help but burst out, and she choked and said, "Master Cheng, I, Su Min, have no way to repay your great kindness. I only wish to be able to share your worries and solve your problems in this life, to repay you in the slightest."

Cheng Feng smiled slightly, a touch of tenderness flashing in his eyes: "Silly girl, what are you talking about repaying? I'm not greedy either, as long as you give me ten or eight children, that's enough."

Looking at Su Min's somewhat cute expression, he gently wiped away the tears on Su Min's face and continued, "As for the matter of revenge, you don't have to worry.

Although the Lin family is powerful, it is not without weaknesses. As long as we plan carefully, we will be able to defeat them in one fell swoop. When the time comes, you and your brother can live in peace."

Listening to Cheng Feng's words, Su Min felt an unprecedented sense of security in her heart. She knew that although she had lost a lot, she now had a haven willing to shield her from the wind and rain.

Su Min held Cheng Feng's hand tightly, as if to keep this warmth in her heart forever.

As the night deepened, the two walked side by side in the courtyard of the Cheng Mansion, the moonlight shining on them, covering this couple who were about to become husband and wife with a soft glow.

Looking at Su Min's performance, Cheng Feng made a 'yes' gesture in his heart.

Little Su Min beauty, got her! ! !
