"Teacher, what do you think of this outfit...?"
As Li Mucheng went to change, Ye Feng waited outside her door. Just as he was spacing out, he suddenly heard Li Mucheng's shy voice from behind the door.
"Miss, if you want me to see, at least open the door. Honestly, just wearing something casual is fine, as long as the colors aren't too bright..."
Ye Feng was halfway through his sentence when Li Mucheng's door slowly opened. As the gap widened, Ye Feng finally got a clear view of her attire.
Li Mucheng was wearing a black-and-white maid outfit, complete with a white headband, white thigh-high stockings, and a pair of black leather boots. Her pure and cute appearance was tinged with a hint of seductiveness. Now Ye Feng understood why her tone had been so shy earlier. Who wouldn't be mesmerized by such a sight?
"How... how is it, Teacher? This outfit shouldn't draw too much attention, right...?"
Li Mucheng raised her head, her big, sparkling eyes fixed on Ye Feng. Noticing his stunned expression, she secretly smiled.
Just as I thought... It was worth preparing this outfit in advance. Seeing Teacher make that face is so amusing~
"Te... Teacher?"
"Huh? Ah!"
Only after Li Mucheng called out a second time did Ye Feng snap out of his daze. He never expected that the "outfit" she mentioned would be a maid dress. Not that it didn't look good, though...
"Ahem."
Ye Feng coughed lightly into his fist, trying to cover up his earlier awkwardness.
"Miss, isn't this outfit a bit... inappropriate?"
"How is it inappropriate? Think about it, Teacher. If I wear a maid outfit, I won't stand out too much. After all, all the servants in our manor dress like this. Plus, the color scheme is as plain as you said it should be, making it hard to notice. This is the best choice, really."
"W-well, alright then. I'll call Ah Fu, and we can head out."
"Understood, Master~"
Li Mucheng nodded obediently, but her sudden use of the word "Master" nearly made Ye Feng's legs give out.
"M-Master?! Miss, what are you saying?! Don't joke around like that! If anyone else hears this, it'll be a disaster!"
Ye Feng rushed back in a panic, staring at Li Mucheng with wide eyes. He hadn't anticipated her saying something like that.
"Huh? But isn't that how maids address people? Teacher, you're now my... mmmph~"
Before Li Mucheng could finish, Ye Feng had already covered her mouth with his hand, his eyes glaring at her intensely.
"Miss, please don't call me that. I'd like to live a few more years, you know."
Ye Feng could already picture himself with his feet encased in cement, sinking to the bottom of the ocean. A chill ran up his spine.
"Mmmph... mmm..."
Li Mucheng mumbled incoherently, unable to speak due to Ye Feng's hand over her mouth. Seeing this, Ye Feng gave her one last warning before finally releasing her.
"Hah... hah... Teacher, you almost suffocated me!"
Li Mucheng pouted, clearly unhappy with Ye Feng's action. However, what Ye Feng didn't notice was that while he was covering her mouth, Li Mucheng had sneakily licked his palm. He was too nervous to realize it.
Teacher's taste... so delicious...
"Sorry, sorry. Just remember, Miss, don't call me that again, okay? Stick to the usual way of addressing me."
"Got it."
Watching Ye Feng hurriedly retreat, Li Mucheng softly whispered the word "Master" again. Her enchanting smile hinted at some hidden thoughts.
......
"So, Teacher? I told you the manor's security is tight, right~"
Li Mucheng walked side by side with Ye Feng along the outdoor path. Every few dozen meters, they passed a fully armed guard, vigilantly scanning their surroundings. It was clear that Li Jing had invested heavily in the manor's security.
"Yeah..."
Ye Feng glanced around, feeling something was off. While the security seemed flawless at first glance, he noticed a critical flaw: the forest at the back of the mountain.
"Ah Fu, is there anyone guarding the back mountain?"
Hearing Ye Feng call his name, Ah Fu stepped forward and thought for a moment before replying, "We haven't stationed anyone at the back mountain. The cliff below makes it impossible for anyone to climb up—the soil there can't support a person's weight. But we've taken precautions. We've installed anti-climbing spikes, alarm sensors, and anti-climb wires. There's also a hidden lookout at the forest's exit. Those scoundrels won't dare make a move on the Miss."
Ah Fu spoke with confidence.
"Hmm... That should be fine. But Ah Fu, we can't afford to be careless about the back mountain. Their group likely has limited numbers, so they won't engage us head-on."
"Don't worry, Ye Feng. I understand."
"Alright. If anything happens, contact me. I'll keep my phone close."
"Got it."
After giving his instructions, Ye Feng turned to Li Mucheng. "Miss, please stay safe as well. I'll take my leave now."
"Okay~ Be careful on your way, Teacher~"
Unlike her usual clingy self, Li Mucheng simply waved goodbye to Ye Feng. This change in behavior brought a sense of relief to Ye Feng.
The Miss is really growing up. She's starting to understand what's appropriate and what's not. It seems my teachings have been successful.
As Ye Feng's figure gradually disappeared from Li Mucheng's sight, Ah Fu cautiously reminded her, "Miss, let's head back inside. It's not safe out here."
"Alright. I'm going to change. Don't disturb me until dinner."
"Understood."
Li Mucheng removed the maid headband, her demeanor instantly shifting back to that of an icy, ethereal beauty.
*Thud*
The moment she returned to her room, Li Mucheng didn't bother changing out of her outfit. Instead, she pulled out a black screen from her desk. As the screen lit up, a detailed map of roads and buildings appeared, with a glowing red dot prominently marking a car model.
"Hehe... Now I can always know where Teacher is. It's a shame I can't hear his voice, though. Maybe next time I'll gift him a necklace. That way, I can keep track of his every move~"
A twisted smile gradually spread across Li Mucheng's beautiful face. Little did she know, the tracking device installed in Ye Feng's phone would one day reveal a truth she never expected.

In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor.
