My System Forces Me to Live off Women-Chapter 264 - 233: No More Kissing!

Aside from diseases, the pain you feel is all induced by your values, it doesn't truly exist.

Because the pain caused by values can be eliminated through changing those values.

When Huang Tianxuan came out of the closet with clothes, Li Peifeng felt this kind of unreal pain and embarrassment. The last time he felt this way was at Zhao Qingge's house, when he was caught by Li Xin.

Thanks to having gone through this once before, Li Peifeng quickly came to terms with it. He braced himself to withstand the killer gazes from Xu Manning and Wu Wenyue and walked towards Miss Huang with an assured face, taking the clothes and pants from her hand…

"Thanks, I'll just wear this outfit then."

Huang Tianxuan was quite surprised, her eyes widened slightly, thinking to herself, "your face is really thick," she couldn't help but laugh: "Go ahead and wear it, do we need to step outside?"

"I'll just go out and change."

Li Peifeng was about to head out with the clothes when Wu Wenyue kicked the closet to block his way and said harshly, "You're going out? Aren't you going to explain?! Someone just came out of the closet, and you're still pretending like nothing happened? At least make up an excuse!"

Li Peifeng sighed, "Listen to yourself, no matter how I explain it, you all think I'm making it up, so why should I bother?"

"Let me explain."

Huang Tianxuan interjected: "Actually, Peifeng invited me over to his place to read novels, hoping I could give him some creative suggestions. Suddenly, Aunt Xue came over, and to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, Peifeng had me hide in the bedroom to prevent Aunt Xue from finding out. Then you guys showed up, so Peifeng went along with it and had me hide in the closet."

"I wasn't very agreeable to this because such a misunderstanding can't be explained away completely, and now as expected..."

Xu Manning and Wu Wenyue either smirked or gazed mockingly back and forth between the two, as if saying, "Go ahead, keep making it up!"

Li Peifeng took off his original suit jacket, put on the jacket chosen by Huang Tianxuan, looked at the pants across his legs, paused, and said, "You're not letting me out? Then I'll just change right here."

Nobody paid him any attention.

Huang Tianxuan glanced around and smiled gently: "That's the situation. I can understand your misunderstanding, after all, it is easy to misinterpret, and I shouldn't have listened to his advice to hide, making things so complicated."

Wu Wenyue frowned silently, Xu Manning crossed her arms with an expressionless face.

Li Peifeng cleared his throat: "Still going shopping?"

"If you want to go so much, just go with her."

Xu Manning abruptly said: "I thought you might mend your ways, but you haven't changed at all. Helping with novels till she ends up at your house? You should at least come up with a more believable excuse."

Huang Tianxuan seemed to speak on his behalf: "Peifeng, apologize quickly, why are you standing there dumbfounded?"

Li Peifeng didn't speak; he felt that ever since Miss Huang emerged from the closet, he was no longer the lead in this scene, so sensibly he remained silent.

Wu Wenyue also didn't speak, suddenly got up and climbed into the closet, sitting where Huang Tianxuan had been, looking at her and Li Peifeng, inexplicably smirking coldly.

What a joke!

Li Peifeng couldn't help but reach out: "Why are you sitting inside? Come out."

Wu Wenyue ignored him, slapped away his hand, sat in the closet, and coolly said: "I think everyone should stop hiding and speak openly."

Huang Tianxuan was startled, seeming to understand something, she started towards the door: "You talk among yourselves, Wenyue, if you're really angry, just give him a good beating. I'll send you a whippet someday. If he doesn't behave, let the dog bite him."

At the door, she said earnestly to Xu Manning, "Manning, you too, although magic from dreams can't be used now, the combat skills learned in dreams are still useful. You can practice on Peifeng when you're free, otherwise, he'll be too arrogant, having two girlfriends and still not satisfied, messing around everywhere."

"If you find someone hiding in Peifeng's closet again, feel free to hit him in the face, but let's leave it this time, it was just a misunderstanding... Manning? Can you move aside?"

After causing a fuss, Huang Tianxuan wanted to escape, but Xu Manning stood unmoving at the door, staring unblinkingly at her, leaving Miss Huang a little flustered.

What's the situation? Aren't you going to hold Li Peifeng accountable? Why stare at me? I'm just a bystander!

Xu Manning slowed her speech: "Sister Xuan, you can't leave, sit down, and let's talk properly."

"You talk with Peifeng."

Feeling the pressure from the other two girls' intense gazes, Huang Tianxuan paused in her speech, both angry and amused: "You don't really think there's something between Peifeng and me, do you? If there were, it would have happened long ago, and I wouldn't be interested in a scumbag like him. You three are already such a mess; I don't want to partake..."

"Then why did you come to his house?"

Interrupting Xu Manning, she also led Huang Tianxuan to a chair by the desk: "Sit."

"I came to his house because he invited me. My relationship with Peifeng is just a pure friendship, or the relationship between a reader and an author. Don't overthink it."

Huang Tianxuan murmured to herself, but it didn't stop Xu Manning from pressing her into the chair.

"We are all aware, there's no need for foolish talk."

Wu Wenyue climbed out of the closet, moved by the bed, exuding a sense of pressure, "Sister Xuan, you helped me before, and I am grateful, and consider you a friend. Later, because of that dream... we got to know each other better, and with our current relationship, calling us good friends or besties, would you agree?"

Cautiously, Huang Tianxuan nodded: "Just say what you have to say."

Wu Wenyue exchanged a glance with Xu Manning, and in this brief exchange of gazes, the two seemed to reach a consensus. Wu Wenyue continued: "I believe what you just said, that you came this time just to discuss the novel with him, hiding in the closet to avoid misunderstandings, and have no affection towards Li Peifeng. Your relationship is clean, I believe it!"

"I believe in freedom~ I believe in hope~ I believe I can reach and touch the sky~"

Li Peifeng hummed a tune softly on the bed, interrupted by a flying slipper from Xu Manning.

Huang Tianxuan laughed lightly: "Glad you believe it. I still have something to do, should I go now?"

"Don't rush."

Wu Wenyue pressed on, "Although I believe you have no intentions regarding Li Peifeng, I do not trust he has none towards you. He once said he wanted to... anyways, you know how he is. To prevent Sister Xuan from getting tangled in our troubles, for your happiness, and for our friendship, I feel like you should..."

She hesitated!

Huang Tianxuan raised an eyebrow: "What should I do?"

Xu Manning spoke softly: "Stay as far away from him as possible."

Huang Tianxuan chuckled ambiguously, not replying.

Wu Wenyue pursed her lips: "You don't have to be extremely distant, just maintain a proper distance. After all, he's not single, and you aren't interested in him. Without us even saying, Sister Xuan, you would naturally avoid being alone with him in situations like today, wouldn't you?"

The smile on Huang Tianxuan's face remained as she glanced at Li Peifeng on the bed fiddling with his phone, she suddenly spoke: "Peifeng, I think what they said makes a lot of sense, what do you think? Should I follow what they say from now on?"

Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning also turned to look at Li Peifeng.

Ultimately, it's down to me to decide?!

Li Peifeng was a bit troubled; how should he respond to this? Everything was laid out, so it wasn't easy to dodge. Wenyue's move was an open strategy, forcing him to choose...

"Say something."

Watching him stay silent, Huang Tianxuan's tone turned teasingly reproachful: "Just now when they were talking in the living room, didn't you have the courage to kiss me here in the bedroom? Why are you mute now?"

Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning's gazes turned sharp and icy cold instantly.

"You kissed her?"

"You kissed her while we were in the living room? Li Peifeng, how dare you!!"

Looks like the shopping trip isn't happening...

Li Peifeng sighed inwardly, opened the closet, threw his pants inside, and hung his jacket next to it, composedly stating: "Isn't it just a kiss? She even saw us three kissing together when she was hiding in the closet, and Tianxuan didn't make such a big fuss, so why are you all upset?"

His shameless words left the three girls stunned. Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning's expressions turned incredibly dark, while Huang Tianxuan seemed to be laughing behind her hand but soon couldn't continue laughing...

"If worst comes to worst, I'll let you guys kiss her too."

Appearing reluctant, as if making a great sacrifice, Li Peifeng declared: "Manning and Wenyue, you each kiss her once, no, twice!"
