Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer - Chapter 1246

Chapter 1246: Late Night Watch Party

A few minutes went by, and Feng Qing Rou donated a large sum of money with tears on her face.

“Are you crying tears of joy for donating?” Carmen asked sweetly.

“Miss Qing Rou is really a charitable person. If we have any other events that require funding, we’ll definitely contact you.” She continued, sounding very innocent.

“Haha…” Poor Feng Qing Rou could only laugh awkwardly to conceal the bitterness and sorrow in her emotions.

To avoid meeting the same fate as Francis Richards, who had to open a press conference to address the issues, Feng Qing Rou could only bleed her heart out. At the very least, she avoided the public shame of being required to apologize and address the public that they were innocent.

‘I should have listened to Xin back then and stayed with the Vanguard Guild to confront the Lethal Corp.’ Feng Qing Rou knew this was a long-overdue karma that had come back to bite her.

She had thought the Vanguard Guild had let the past go during their multiple cooperation and alliances.

Unfortunately, she couldn’t be any more wrong!

Just because they didn’t bring up the topic didn’t mean they weren’t harboring any grudges.

“We won’t bring up the past incident again, right?” Feng Qing Rou gritted her teeth and asked cautiously. She seriously did not want to be implicated in the same situation over and over again.

If she really allowed that to happen, then wouldn’t she be extorted constantly?

“Miss Qing Rou worries too much.” Carmen giggled sweetly.

“Our Vanguard Guild operates very fairly. The donation we receive today is very satisfactory, so any past grudges are wiped out. Moreover, you are also part of our Chamber of Commerce, so how can we let you suffer?”

“Great, then I shall excuse myself.”

At this moment, Feng Qing Rou seriously wanted to slap herself in the face.

To think she would one day lift a boulder and throw it down on her foot. Had she endured and resisted the temptation of trying to watch more episodes, would she have lost so much money in the process?

This was really the equivalent of trying to steal a chicken only to lose the rice in the process.

“Where are you going?” Carmen stood up and asked in confusion.

“D-Don’t tell me there are more things you want from me?” Feng Qing Rou twitched her brows in astonishment.

You already scammed me hard!

What more do you want from me?

Seeing how Feng Qing Rou expressed an aggrieved look, Carmen felt satisfied inwardly.

‘Who told you to bully and want to take advantage of Xu Feng!’ She thought to herself.

Had they treated Xu Feng with proper respect, then she wouldn’t have gone this far.

The man she likes, nobody could treat him badly!

“I’ve told you that the editing team finished 30 more episodes. It’s impossible for you to watch with your account, but it’s possible with my guild mode account.” Carmen explained.

What she was doing was another teaching from Xu Feng: the carrot and the stick.

The stick was her extortion into boosting the overall guild’s wealth, whereas the carrot was allowing Feng Qing Rou to watch a few more episodes.

Only by granting them the stick first, then giving them some carrots, would it produce the best result.

After all, Xu Feng taught her that humans always remembered the latest incident and rarely the past incident.

Based on that logic, Carmen made sure to follow through with her domineering presence and then a softening approach.

“Really, we can watch episode 11 now?” Sure enough, Feng Qing Rou forgot about the part of being extorted. Her eyes glistened in joy at being able to watch more episodes.

“Mhmm, Miss Xin should order some late-night snacks. Since it’s your hotel, I doubt you would be charging us, right?” Carmen shifted her sight to Zhao Xin.

In response to the statement, Zhao Xin directly made a phone call and ended it in less than 30 seconds.

Shortly after that was done, Carmen turned to the bed.

“Feng, stop pretending and come over here.” She called him out.

Being called out, Xu Feng reluctantly got off the bed and sat next to her.

When the other two saw how shameless he was in pretending to be asleep, they resisted the urge to pummel him.

‘Hmph, using a woman as a shield. Just you wait, Feng!’ Zhao Xin remembered this debt.

‘What a shameless and cunning duo!’ Feng Qing Rou held a different mindset and made a mental note that these two were equally despicable.

Although they were despicable, she had to admit that their methods and temptations were impossible to resist.

She sat obediently and eagerly waited for episode 11 to play out.

Who could have imagined that a late-night watch party would commence?

“I’m tired, Carmen.” Xu Feng whispered softly to her. He wanted to sleep and not watch the short drama.

After all, it felt very weird and awkward to see himself on the screen.

Moreover, he had a feeling that whatever his character does on the screen, his real-life self would become the target of their frustration.

‘Episode 11 should be my character making frivolous remarks to swoon over Yumong. But Yumong has already been replaced by Chen Kexin’s character by then.’ Xu Feng sweated profusely.

“You can sleep if you want to, but I can’t guarantee that your lower part will remain intact.” Carmen didn’t stop him whatsoever. Instead, she gently warned him of the possibility of becoming an eunuch once he fell asleep.

“You wouldn’t be that cruel…”

“I sure wouldn’t, but these two women. I cannot guarantee that they could resist themselves.”

“…”

Speechless, Xu Feng didn’t expect that he was also included in her scheme.

After all, Carmen’s next statement made him understand that the true cunning person wasn’t him.

“By the way, if you two wish to hit Feng later on while watching the short drama, you can order some rotten eggs and tomatoes to throw at him. It’s very cheap. 100 dollars per item.” Carmen smiled sweetly.
