Just as he was about to step out of the room, Ning Fengzhi turned to look at Yun Feng, who had stood up.
He spoke with a meaningful tone.
"I know you're a smart person. Sometimes, choices matter more than outcomes."
Seeing Ning Fengzhi's demeanor, Yun Feng nodded heavily but didn't say much more.
After all, as Ning Fengzhi had said, they were both intelligent people.
Some things didn't need to be spelled out—they were understood immediately!
Ning Fengzhi didn't elaborate further either. He simply glanced at the Whale Jelly Yun Feng was idly playing with in his hand.
His body stiffened slightly, and he quickly left the room with Chen Xin and Gu Rong in tow.
Yun Feng and the others watched their retreating figures.
He couldn't help but murmur to himself:
"Emperor, or Pope?"
Xiao Wu, hearing Yun Feng's soft muttering, curiously asked him.
"What emperor or pope?"
Yun Feng smiled faintly but didn't explain further.
Instead, he said mysteriously:
"You'll find out later!"
Xiao Wu wasn't the type to press for answers.
Seeing that Yun Feng wasn't going to elaborate, she didn't ask further.
After all, she knew Yun Feng wouldn't do anything bad to them.
After seeing Ning Fengzhi and the other two off, Yun Feng returned to the room, only to find himself in a dilemma.
Looking at the pitiful girl in the iron cage, Yun Feng shook his head.
He then turned to the girl with a warm smile.
"Don't be afraid, I'll get you out of here!"
The cat-eared girl, seeing Yun Feng's expression, thought some kind of punishment was coming and tightly shut her eyes in fear.
Her body trembled uncontrollably.
But Yun Feng's voice was so comforting.
It made her feel a little more at ease.
Slowly, she opened her amber-colored eyes and stared at Yun Feng.
Yun Feng looked into those eyes.
How should he describe them?
They were eyes filled with despair, yet holding a glimmer of hope.
Without hesitation, Yun Feng crushed the lock on the cage and opened the iron door.
But to his surprise, the cat-eared girl didn't immediately come out.
It was as if there were some terrifying monster waiting outside.
After a moment of thought, Yun Feng decided to activate his Aura of Affinity.
He then smiled at the girl and said:
"Can you come out?"
"We mean no harm!"
The sunlight from outside the window shone on Yun Feng's face.
At that moment, in the girl's eyes, Yun Feng seemed like a god.
He illuminated her heart.
After glancing around the room, she noticed that everyone there was a woman, all smiling warmly at her.
She had never experienced so many smiles directed at her before.
Facing Yun Feng's outstretched hand, she hesitated for a moment before finally pulling her hand from her chest.
She gently placed it in Yun Feng's hand.
Yun Feng felt the warmth of her hand.
With a soft smile, he helped her out of the cage.
Perhaps the auction house knew the girl's value, as there were no scars or marks on her body.
It seemed she hadn't been beaten or abused.
But her complexion clearly wasn't good.
She was probably starving.
Yun Feng used his spiritual power to check her condition.
He found nothing seriously wrong.
Still, to be safe, Yun Feng decided to use the Soul Control Technique.
He wanted to delve into the girl's memories.
To better understand how to help her.
Yun Feng extended his spiritual power and used the Soul Control Technique to invade the girl, who had no Soul Power.
In just a few seconds, Yun Feng had seen the entirety of the girl's life.
After seeing it all, Yun Feng fell completely silent.
Silently, he took out a set of women's clothing from his ring and gently draped it over the girl's body, covering her graceful figure.
He spoke softly to her:
"How about you chat with these sisters here and have something to eat?"
The girl, perhaps sensing that Yun Feng meant no harm, quickly nodded without hesitation.
Yun Feng also understood why the girl was in such a state.
After a while, Yun Feng looked at the girl who had already washed up and eaten.
He noticed that the girl's tail was wagging vigorously.
Seeing this, Yun Feng thought it resembled a puppy.
After all, a cat's tail doesn't wag like that.
"What's your name?" Yun Feng's gentle voice reached the girl's ears.
The girl's breathing quickened, her face paled slightly, and she hurriedly replied:
"I don't have a name."
Yun Feng actually knew this, but he couldn't reveal to the girl that he had read her memories.
That's why he asked.
Seeing the girl like this, Xiao Wu and the others, unaware of the situation, also showed looks of pity.
After thinking for a moment, Yun Feng approached the girl with a warm smile and said:
"How about I give you a name?"
Hearing Yun Feng's words, the girl's cat ears and tail stood straight up.
She looked incredibly cute.
In a nervous tone, she asked:
"Is... is that okay?"
Yun Feng smiled and reached out to gently touch the girl's cat ears.
Then he slowly said:
"Of course it is!"
Yun Feng tilted his head, and under the girl's expectant gaze, he thought for a while.
Then he showed an awkward expression.
"How about I call you Miao Miao?"
As soon as Yun Feng said this, Xiao Wu and the others all facepalmed.
Only Miao Miao was extremely happy.
Her eyes filled with gratitude as she looked at Yun Feng.
In this brief interaction, Miao Miao had also come to understand Yun Feng's character.
Moreover, the way he looked at her didn't carry any lewd intentions.
Plus, it was Yun Feng who had saved her, and he had a pleasant scent.
At this moment, Miao Miao had no reservations about Yun Feng.
Overjoyed, she jumped onto Yun Feng, rubbing her little face against his cheek.
Feeling the warmth on his face, Yun Feng suddenly had a thought.
Is this what it feels like to be close to a beautiful girl?
But then, Yun Feng remembered something and quickly turned to look at Ning Rongrong and the others.
Seeing that the girls weren't showing any signs of jealousy, Yun Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
The girls, seeing Yun Feng like this, exchanged knowing smiles.
Xiao Wu also said to Yun Feng:
"Brother, you don't think we'd get jealous over something like this, do you?"On the surface, Yun Feng shook his head, but inside he was furiously complaining."
He knew exactly who it was that even when he went to approach Liu Erlong, they had to come and watch.
Of course, Yun Feng didn't dare say these things out loud.
Otherwise, the soft flesh on his waist would suffer again.
Miao Miao also realized something.
She quickly got off Yun Feng.
In a trembling voice, she said:
"Sorry, I... I didn't mean to!"
Seeing Miao Miao like this, the girls stepped forward to comfort her.
After all, this little thing was indeed quite endearing.
After a while, seeing that the mistresses didn't seem to blame her, Miao Miao calmed down.
However, Yun Feng, watching this scene, felt troubled inside.
Now that he had bought Miao Miao, how should he arrange for her?
Yun Feng, thinking this, didn't avoid Meow Meow and directly addressed the women:
"We've saved them now, but what should we do in the future?"
Hearing Yun Feng's words, Me
ow Meow was as if struck by lightning.
Her body trembled uncontrollably.
She collapsed to the ground, tears streaming down her face as she looked at Yun Feng.
She kept pleading:
"Master, please let me stay with you!"
"I eat very little, I'm easy to take care of!"
"And I can do anything, please don't drive me away!"
