Chapter 1235: Liu Fengyi Suddenly Appears Lu Yun rode smoothly to the entrance of Tingting's courtyard, familiar with the way. Yet what he hadn't expected was that the main gate was guarded by iron, and no one was there at Tingting's home! Frowning slightly, Lu Yun was puzzled. Though Tingting's father's illness had been well controlled and effectively treated, he should have been resting and not moving around at all over the past few days—let alone going out to work. Now, it was mid-afternoon, the sun blazing overhead. It would have been impossible for anyone to go outside and work during this time without suffering from heatstroke. Surely Fengying wouldn't have sent her still-recovering husband out to work. Could there be a problem? Or had Wang Heihu, perhaps, changed his mind and come back to cause trouble again? As he stood beneath the scorching sun, Lu Yun scanned the surroundings, searching for any signs of unusual activity—yet found nothing out of the ordinary. Strange. A moment later, Lu Yun glanced once more at the grand gate guarded by an iron sentinel, and with a sigh, turned to leave. Just as he was about to get into his car, a voice familiar to him suddenly rang out from afar—Feng Ying. Lu Yun's heart leaped with joy, and he hurried to turn toward the direction of the sound. Indeed, there she was, Feng Ying carrying a basket of food, hurrying toward him. She wiped the sweat from her forehead and called out as she approached, "Xiao Yun, how come you've managed to come by now?" Seeing Feng Ying, Lu Yun's slightly subdued mood instantly brightened. He smiled at her and said, "Miss Feng, I've come with a matter in mind, and I'd also like to check in on Mr. Liu's recovery." How awkwardly formal that sounded! Hearing Lu Yun call her "sister" but refer to her husband as "uncle," Feng Ying seemed to recall something, her cheeks flushing red. She quickened her steps and approached Lu Yun, speaking softly, "Xiao Yun, on the street, please call me 'aunt'—that's what you should do. When we're alone, you can call me anything you like." Lu Yun glanced around, smiled gently and said, "Feng Ying sister, isn't it just now that no one else is here?" "But what if Mr. Tingting hears us? He's still not fully recovered. If he's startled and something happens to him, I'll never forgive myself." It was clear that, despite the closeness between her and Lu Yun, Feng Ying still found it hard to fully accept their relationship. Lu Yun nodded in agreement—after all, her mother and daughter had already been served by the family, and it did feel rather intimate. To ease the awkwardness between them, Lu Yun looked at the food in Feng Ying's hands, then at the heavily guarded gate, and asked curiously, "Mr. Liu isn't here?" "Wait, wait—when I went out, I didn't feel comfortable leaving the door unlocked, so I locked it. Look at me! You've come all this way, and I've been so busy talking to you that I completely forgot to even open the door. As I said, I quickly unlocked it and pushed the door open." Feng Ying glanced at Lu Yun with a touch of embarrassment and said softly, "Little Yun, you sit first. I'll prepare lunch—let's have it at home today." As she spoke, she turned toward the kitchen. At that moment, a sudden knock came from outside—the front door was being tapped vigorously—and then a very familiar woman's voice spoke clearly, "Big sister, open the door." It was Liu Fengyi! Wait a minute—how did she come here? Lu Yun recognized the voice immediately. It was none other than Feng Ying's younger sister, the very person who had originally encouraged him to join Feng Ying—indeed, one of the key instigators. Feng Ying replied from inside and stepped toward the door, but Lu Yun stepped forward first and said, "Sister Feng, let me take care of the door. You go ahead and prepare lunch." Then he stepped out of the room. Being alone with Feng Ying felt strangely awkward and stifling—perhaps because Feng Ying was Tingting’s mother, or maybe because he had embarrassed both of them with his own nervousness. No matter what, whenever he was alone with Feng Ying, he never felt as relaxed as when he was with Liu Fengyi. Now, with Liu Fengyi suddenly appearing, Lu Yun took the opportunity to step outside to freshen up, which helped ease the tension between him and Feng Ying. At the front door, Lu Yun glanced through the crack, then, as he opened it, peered out between the two door panels, watching Liu Fengyi who had yet to react. He smiled softly and said, “Fengyi, did you know I was coming, so you came over just at noon?” Until Lu Yun had finished speaking, Liu Fengyi had still not fully recovered, staring at him in surprise, and only after a moment did she regain her composure, beaming, "Ah, Xiao Yun! It really is you! Haha, wonderful! I didn't expect you to come. Haha..." As she laughed, she glanced toward the courtyard and noticed her brother-in-law walking toward the house. She then whispered, "You stubborn boy! You didn't even tell me you were coming. Did you miss Fengying? Have you two been doing something special?" Upon hearing Liu Fengyi's words, Lu Yun felt a wave of frustration, turning to look behind him and said, "Fengyi sister, please speak softly—don't let Liu uncle hear us." "What's there to be afraid of? Isn't he already inside?" Liu Fengyi replied carelessly, leaning closer to Lu Yun with an air of intimacy, "Tell me, have you been enchanted by my second sister? Did you come over just to spend time with her in the middle of the day?" "Where's the scandal? I came here with a matter in mind, and just happened to stop by to see Feng Ying and Liu Uncle. It's not as bad as you're making it out to be." Lu Yun hurried to explain, for if they continued to dwell on this issue, he had no idea what kind of absurdity Liu Fengyi might come up with next. "Really?" Liu Fengyi's elegant danfeng eyes were filled with doubt. "Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you?" Lu Yun straightened his posture and assured her. "Come on, let's go inside—by standing out here, you'd be turning to oil by now!" "Hah! Sister hasn't turned to oil, but when I saw you, I must admit, water started flowing out of me," Liu Fengyi said, yet instead of entering, she pulled Lu Yun right out from the front door and smiled seductively. "Since you haven't been involved with Er-jie in that way, you should still be quite firm, right? Haha—let's go somewhere together. I'd like to see just why, when I see you, water starts flowing out of me." Without further hesitation, she took Lu Yun
