Super Soldier in Campus-Chapter 681 - 686 Slipped Foot_1

"Teacher Xu, you misunderstood. I am actually a bodyguard hired by Mr. Ning to protect Aoxue..." Lin Feng explained with a smile.

"Bodyguard? Aoxue is just an ordinary student. Does she need a bodyguard?" Xu Jing's face showed a hint of confusion. To need a bodyguard in college, isn't Ning Aoxue a bit too pampered?

Although Xu Jing knew about Ning Fuxun's prominent status as a wealthy man in Jiangzhou, affluent people were plentiful in China, especially in Jiangzhou. Most local residents there had assets of at least ten million. However, targeted malicious incidents were rare because Jiangzhou's public security was among the best in China, and China's public security was among the safest in the world.

Generally, this was the case, but there were always exceptions.

Ning Fuxun was one such exception. He had ties to the Hong Sect and had recently become embroiled in commercial disputes with the Qingzi Sect. The members of the Qingzi Sect weren't to be trifled with, which was why Ning Aoxue had nearly gotten into trouble.

"It's like today's incident. Aoxue was almost kidnapped before, so she needs a bodyguard to protect her. I happened to demonstrate my skills in front of Mr. Ning once. He knows I've trained in martial arts, and since I'm also a student at Jiangzhou University, he hired me to be Aoxue's bodyguard," Lin Feng responded in a calm tone, looking at Xu Jing.

"I see... That makes sense. Uncle Ning's business has grown so large, it's inevitable he'd make some enemies!" Xu Jing gently nodded. As the granddaughter of the Hong Sect's former master, she was well aware of society's dark side. It wasn't as calm as it appeared on the surface. For a place like Jiangzhou City, which wasn't particularly large, describing it as rife with undercurrents wouldn't be an exaggeration.

More importantly, Xu Jing knew that Ning Fuxun had largely stopped contacting Xu Yishan over a decade ago. He had ostensibly severed ties with the Hong Sect, which was precisely why some people dared to move against Ning Fuxun! If Ning Fuxun still had his connections to the Hong Sect, the Qingzi Sect might not have dared to make a move on him. But... who could he blame? Ning Fuxun had chosen to leave the Hong Sect to whitewash his identity.

"Teacher Xu, you should dry your hair. You'll catch a cold if you leave it wet..." Lin Feng suggested, pointing at Xu Jing's still dripping hair, frowning.

It was already autumn, and the night air was quite cool. Chatting with soaking wet hair could indeed lead to a cold.

"Ah... I'll get right to it..." Xu Jing's face turned slightly red. Of course, she knew her hair was still wet; she had only been talking to Lin Feng to cover her embarrassment at him having seen those files...

Xu Jing hurried towards her vanity, planning to grab her hairdryer. Whether it was because she was too flustered, or she just hadn't noticed, she failed to see Lin Feng's outstretched foot blocking her way...

"AH!" Xu Jing screamed as her slipper landed on Lin Feng's instep. She instantly lost her balance, her delicate body pitching forward, and as luck would have it, she lunged directly toward Lin Feng.

Being the upstanding young man he was, Lin Feng couldn't possibly step aside and let her fall to the ground. At the critical moment, he instinctively opened his arms, ready to catch Xu Jing. The next second, she fell right onto Lin Feng, who was sitting in the computer chair.

THUMP. A soft, fragrant armful landed squarely on Lin Feng. Xu Jing, her face somewhat panicked, met Lin Feng's gaze nervously...

"Lin Feng... What do you think you're doing?!" Xu Jing demanded angrily, suspecting Lin Feng had intentionally tripped her.

"Teacher Xu, I'm sorry... It's my fault for carelessly leaving my leg out like that..." Lin Feng apologized softly. He thought she would get up if he let go, but for some reason, even after he released his hold, Xu Jing didn't move and continued to cling to him...

"Lin... Lin Feng..." Xu Jing blushed, her voice trembling as she spoke in a hushed tone, "I... I don't know what's wrong, I can't seem to get up... Could you... could you help me up?"

Lin Feng was stunned for a moment. He looked at Xu Jing with a wry smile and asked helplessly, "Teacher Xu, you're not kidding, are you? If you don't get up soon, I'm going to topple over... How could I possibly help you up? I can't exert any strength at all!"

"I don't care... I can't get up right now! You have to help me!" Xu Jing glared resentfully at Lin Feng and insisted unreasonably.

"Teacher Xu, it's not that I don't want to help! But in this state, how can I possibly support you?" Lin Feng asked with a wry smile. He was practically pinned down by Xu Jing, with the teetering computer chair behind him; he couldn't use any strength at all... Besides, if he tried to push Xu Jing away, his hands would likely touch... certain parts of her front, making things even harder to explain...

"Lin Feng... don't push it! No matter what, I'm still your teacher!" Xu Jing seethed through clenched teeth, her beautiful eyes glaring at Lin Feng. She didn't believe he was incapable of helping her; she was convinced he was just taking advantage of the situation. This guy, actually exploiting her predicament—it was outrageous!

Seeing Xu Jing's expression, Lin Feng knew she had misunderstood. But in this situation, any attempt to explain would be futile. He could only say with a pained expression, "Teacher Xu, do you really want me to help you up?"

Desperate times called for desperate measures!

"Of course..." Xu Jing nodded subconsciously. She was even wondering what on earth that guy Lin Feng was waiting for.

"Alright then..." Lin Feng nodded, having received Xu Jing's consent. He placed his hands on her smooth shoulders, through her bathrobe, and exerted force to push her up...

Seeing Lin Feng earnestly push her up without trying to take advantage of the situation, Xu Jing's expression finally softened a little. But just then, she suddenly realized something was wrong... As Lin Feng pushed her up, he himself, along with the chair, was actually tipping backward!

"Watch out!" Xu Jing's eyes widened in surprise, and she cried out instinctively, wanting to grab Lin Feng. However, in the sudden rush, she simply couldn't react fast enough.

The computer chair beneath Lin Feng, already struggling under the weight of two people, was tilting precariously backward. As Lin Feng exerted force on Xu Jing, the chair leaned back even further, on the verge of toppling completely...

Witnessing this perilous scene, Xu Jing warned Lin Feng in a fluster. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

But Lin Feng had already anticipated this. Upon hearing Xu Jing's warning, not only did he not lessen his force, but he suddenly pushed harder, sending Xu Jing smoothly upward...

Then, Lin Feng, along with the computer chair, fell heavily backward. BANG! With a THUD, he and the chair crashed to the floor!

"Lin Feng..." Seeing Lin Feng fall, Xu Jing was dumbstruck. Now she finally believed it; in that situation, Lin Feng truly hadn't been able to push her up...

Seeing Lin Feng crash to the ground, Xu Jing didn't pause for long. She quickly rushed to his side, intending to help him up...

However, Xu Jing saw that Lin Feng's eyes were tightly shut, as if he had fainted. Streaks of tears, born from a mixture of horror and profound self-reproach, finally traced paths down her face. What happened to Lin Feng...?
