Chapter 636 - 378: Trampling on Li Peifeng (Part 2)

Xu Manning was not pleased: "Show me how to do it."

"Dummy."

Li Peifeng demonstrated a few moves: "Did you get it?"

"I already know how to do it!"

Xu Manning replied coyly as she continued her squats, still refusing to face Li Peifeng with her back, opting for a side view.

Of course, this angle was pretty good too, allowing him to appreciate the perfect s-shaped curve, but Li Peifeng wasn’t quite satisfied, so he found his way to Xu Manning’s side, attempting to place his hands under her tightly-fitted hips...

"Your posture is still not perfect, keep your back straight, squat like you’re sitting in a chair, and sit on my hands... Go on, sit!"

"You’re such a pest!"

Xu Manning shot Li Peifeng a half-shy, half-annoyed glance, but instead of being deterred, he kept urging: "Why are you looking at me? Are you still shy with your old husband and wife?"

"Who are you calling an old married couple?"

Though Xu Manning’s words were filled with complaints, she still maintained the proper posture and lowered herself slightly into a squat, sitting right on Li Peifeng’s hands...

"Don’t pinch randomly!!"

She sat for only a moment before Xu Manning felt too ticklish to bear it, stood up, and playfully swatted Li Peifeng twice while blushing, her eyes glistening, teasingly accusing: "Are you being cheeky? We’re supposed to be exercising, no mischief allowed!"

Gee, trying to make me pounce on you? I’m worried you can’t handle pouncing on me!

Li Peifeng chuckled, pretending to slurp nonexistent drool: "Alright, the warm-up is pretty much done, let’s go do hip bridges on the bed."

Xu Manning feigned refusal: "No way, I’m not getting on the bed, you’ll just get naughty again."

Li Peifeng laughed: "Then practice on your own, I’m not helping you."

Who’s being naughty with you?

Xu Manning felt dissatisfied, Li Peifeng’s attitude wasn’t what she expected, considering he’d been staying at Zhao Qingge’s place for over a week now, with Old Zhao saying the two hadn’t gotten cozy, he should’ve been thirsty... Wu Wenyue! Wu Wenyue must’ve snuck in and stolen something during the move!

"Humph, don’t touch me!"

Xu Manning rolled her eyes in warning, then lay on the bed to do bodyweight hip bridges herself.

Li Peifeng glanced over twice, took off his shirt, sat shirtless on the edge of the bed, his eyes focused on the enticingly active Miss Xu, but rather than taking further action, he started showing off his muscles...

Flexing the biceps! Flexing the lats!

Ah, such a robust physique, these perfect lines!!

He stroked his ribs, the bones strengthened by the LRP5 gene mutation, making Li Peifeng’s chest bone and ribs several times sturdier than normal, better protecting the internal organs...

"What are you up to?!"

Xu Manning glared disapprovingly: "You’re just like those brainless male peacocks, flaunting for what?"

Li Peifeng grinned: "You keep exercising, I just feel like I’ve been bulking up recently."

I refuse to believe you won’t be attracted!

"Get out!"

Xu Manning watched Li Peifeng for a while, pressed her lips together, then turned her head to continue her own workout: "If you’re not going to exercise with me, then hurry up and leave, don’t just hang out shirtless in my bedroom."

"Aren’t you complaining I’m naughty? How should I exercise with you then?"

Xu Manning couldn’t be bothered to respond, continuing to focus on her workout, not caring much about making the movements super precise, but more about emphasizing her figure to tempt Li Peifeng into turning wolf!

Just as Li Peifeng was about to say something, his ears perked up, looking towards the living room, and the next moment, the doorbell rang...

"Ding dong~"

Xu Manning looked puzzled: "Is it Yueyue coming back?"

"No."

Li Peifeng got up to answer the door, and Xu Manning asked him to put his shirt back on, but he didn’t listen, instead, he retorted: "Do you remember who you sent that WeChat to during dinner?"

Xu Manning seemed to recall something, quickly got out of bed and exited the bedroom.

"Click~"

The door opened, Huang Tianxuan saw Li Peifeng shirtless, Xu Manning in her workout-meets-fashion outfit, her lips involuntarily twitched: "Looks like I arrived just in time."

"Come on in."

Li Peifeng warmly welcomed her: "You haven’t eaten yet, have you? I happened to save some food for you, and I can whip up another dish."

Huang Tianxuan glanced at him, her eyes lingering over his pecs for a second, then looked straight ahead and stepped inside.

"Why are you here?"

Xu Manning’s attitude was somewhat nuanced, yet still clearly unwelcoming.

Huang Tianxuan chuckled: "When you post food photos in the group chat, isn’t it an invitation for me to come for dinner? I just didn’t expect you guys to eat so quickly. Even after rushing over right after work, I didn’t manage to make it on time... Where’s Wenyue?"

"She’s in the back building."

After Xu Manning answered, she let out a barely audible snort: "You’re shamelessly thick-skinned."

"Little sis must not have had enough to eat, speaking so softly, big sis can’t hear."

Huang Tianxuan chuckled as she hung her leather coat on the rack, swapped her boots for slippers, and casually picked up the empty water glass from the coffee table, heading to the kitchen to fill it up, acting as if she were right at home.

As the owner of the house, Xu Manning always considered herself the head of the household, and seeing Huang Tianxuan behaving this way naturally angered her. Especially since her actions disrupted Xu Manning’s plans with Li Peifeng, prompting her to command Li Peifeng in a domineering manner in the kitchen: "Don’t bother cooking a new dish for her, just toss her some leftovers and let her eat quickly and leave."

"Don’t say such angry words."

Li Peifeng didn’t stop washing the vegetables, casually turned to give her a peck as reassurance.

The effect was limited, Miss Xu’s eyes flashed with anger, and she even bit back, tiptoeing to encircle Li Peifeng’s neck and plant a nibble on his face.
