Return of the Soldier King Chapter 16

Chapter 016 Catch the Pervert

"Ah!!! Pervert, pervert!"

Chu Mo's face was full of fear as she screamed in the silent morning.

"Pervert? Where? I'll get him!" Ye Fei stood up from the sofa, ready to fight.

Looking around, he couldn't find anyone other than the terrified woman screaming her lungs out on the toilet.

"Honey, are you OK? Do you have a fever? Where is the pervert?"

Ye Fei walked over and stretched out his hand to touch Chu Mo's forehead, and then touched his own. Surprisingly, they were about the same temperature.　

"Ah!"

Seeing this strange man not only peeping on her but also stretching out his hand to touch her head, Chu Mo's snow-white body shivered in her black lace underwear.

"What's with the noise? It's early, let people sleep!" Liu Manman yawned, rubbing her sleepy eyes as she walked out of her room. She went straight to the water dispenser and made herself a cup of hot water, covering her head with her hand as she drank.

She was hung over. Combined with last night's attempted rape, which scared her so much that she felt her head almost crack, she now had a splitting headache.

She was only wearing very thin black silk pajamas. Her nipples could be clearly seen, but Ye Fei respectfully avoided looking.

Ye Fei had no interest in looking at her. He already did not like women like Liu Manman, though now his eyes also revealed a hint of annoyance.

Liu Manman had a headache and was in an extremely bad mood. Ye Fei's look also came off as one of disgust, and that thoroughly infuriated her. She threw the cup in her hands right at him and turned back to her room. Slamming the door behind her, she screamed, "Why are you shouting, damn it?!"

Liu Manman's bad attitude startled Chu Mo.

She didn't understand why Liu Manman had no reaction upon seeing this pervert and then suddenly exploded like that, as if not against the pervert, but against Chu Mo.

Chu Mo, who rarely interacted with strangers, did not know what she should do.

Fortunately, the commotion outside woke up Lin Qingwan, who now came out of her room.

Lin Qingwan's appearance was completely different from Chu Mo and Liu Manman's.

She was not as bewildered as Chu Mo, nor as untidy as Liu Manman.　

Although it was early in the morning, Lin Qingwan had quickly done her makeup and put on an elegant dress. With her cold and aloof expression, she was almost perfect.

As Lin Qingwan walked out to the living room, she immediately dominated the situation with her imposing manner. "What's going on?"

"I don't know. She just started screaming 'pervert'. I looked around, but in the end there was nothing," Ye Fei said helplessly.

"You... You..." Chu Mo pointed to Ye Fei's nose and finally said, "The pervert is you!"

"The pervert is me?" Ye Fei pointed to himself with surprise and scratched his head, "What did I do? Why are you insulting my virtue?"

"Miss Chu, this is Ye Fei, my bodyguard. Something happened to me yesterday, so I had no choice but to stay here with him. What did he do to make you so angry? Did he sneak into your room and steal your underwear? Whatever he did, say it. I will punish him severely."　

Lin Qingwan looked composed on the surface, but she was gloating in her heart. She was thinking, "Hey, Ye Fei, I couldn't find an excuse to reduce your salary before, but now I have the perfect opportunity. You creeping out Chu Mo is just the excuse I needed!"

"No, no, no, he didn't steal my underwear." Chu Mo waved her hands.

"So what's the matter?"　Lin Qingwan asked.

"He...he..." Chu Mo's face looked like a succulent red apple. She equivocated for a long time, but couldn't bring herself to speak out.

Would she say that Ye Fei was peeping on her while she was on the toilet?

No matter whether Ye Fei saw her or not, if she spoke out, she would be forever ashamed to show her face in that apartment.

Crystal drops appeared in Chu Mo's eyes. She suddenly burst into tears and fled back to her room.

"Ye Fei, think about what did! You made Chu Mo cry."

If Chu Mo wasn't going to say anything, Lin Qingwan's plan to reduce Ye Fei's salary was doomed to fail.

"Oh, I guess she just had a nightmare." Ye Fei yawned. He had realized what happened. He had just seen her go to the toilet.

Ye Fei simply taught her a lesson - if she did not close the door when she went to the toilet, she couldn't blame anyone for walking in on her.

Ye Fei and Lin Qingwan stood outside her door, staring at each other.

The door of Chu Mo's room suddenly opened.

She now wore a white shirt, a black skirt, flesh-colored stockings, glasses, and high heels. She carried a satchel containing an economics textbook.

Seeing Ye Fei and Lin Qingwan still standing outside her door, she blushed and lowered her head before running away. At the front door, Chu Mo ran into Murong, who'd just returned. Murong looked tired, her eyes bloodshot.

Chu Mo lowered her head and walked past Murong as if she did not see her.

"What's wrong with Chu Mo?" Murong was confused. Her relationship with Chu Mo was very good. It was highly unusual for Chu Mo not to say hello to her.

Ye Fei glanced at Murong helplessly and said this had nothing to do with him.

"Humph. No wonder everyone says she's a finicky teacher," Lin Qingwan grumbled. She passed Ye Fei a check, "This is an advance of 50,000 Yuan for you. Go deposit it at the bank. I am too tired to go to the office this morning, so I'll be here. Murong will stay with me, so you do not have to worry about my safety."

Ye Fei grabbed the check and looked at Murong. Although this cop was a little slow, she wasn't bad in a fight. She could protect Lin Qingwan, so Ye Fei felt comfortable going out alone.

After returning from a special mission abroad, he is forced to accept a job as a bodyguard. He is then tasked with the mission of protecting the powerful (and beautiful) CEO of a multinational company based in Shanghai.

Follow Ye Fei in a story that isn't afraid to go over the top and pokes fun at the typical Wuxia, Xianxia, and hero tropes found in most Chinese Web Novels.
