Chapter 174: Chapter 173 Seeing the stars

Gu Qianxue's home was near the center of Beijing but was somewhat isolated from the rest of the city.

On a large mountain so high that if you looked far away you could see the clouds, almost at the same height there was a large house in the old Chinese style but with all the comforts. This house that could be compared to the size of a western mansion was the ancestral home of the Gu Family.

To reach the Gu Family house, one had to drive for more than thirty minutes before finally reaching the top of the mountain. However, this was not too much of a problem either as there was a road in perfect condition connecting the bottom to the top of the mountain.

After flying for about twenty minutes from the military base, the helicopter carrying Xie Feng and the rest finally landed on solid ground.

"Finally land under my feet..." Yin Yue couldn't help but mutter after getting off the helicopter, "I really can't get used to the insecurity of being in the sky."

Actually, Yin Yue's words made sense from a certain point of view because if she fell from a height of several kilometers or the plane-helicopter she was traveling in exploded or was attacked, she would be no different from a normal human being and would definitely die.

"Yes? Well, I like heights better." Xie Feng said in a low voice as he looked at his surroundings attentively.

Since he got off the helicopter, the first thing Xie Feng did was to inspect the area and was surprised to discover two things.

First, Xie Feng discovered that there were surprisingly no armed guards protecting the mansion. Actually, except for a few maidservants inside the house, there was no one else. This led Xie Feng to draw the conclusion that the Gu Family was really small compared to the other four main families.

The other thing that Xie Feng discovered was that there was actually a place that his inspection could not enter. Several meters underground there was a door created with a strange material that completely blocked all access. Xie Feng tried to break through several times but unfortunately his efforts were unsuccessful.

"Alright kiddos, let's all go inside. Dinner is ready and waiting for us." Gu Pojun, who finally managed to appease his wife's anger during the trip, clapped his hands and invited everyone to enter the house with a smile on his face.

The dinner prepared was extremely sumptuous and delicious, as expected. From vegetarian dishes to all kinds of meats; fish, pork, chicken, beef, lobsters, etc.

Fortunately, the dinner took place in a warm atmosphere. Everyone chatted peacefully about all kinds of topics, leaving aside things like money, politics, and social status.

In truth, things went so well that Xie Feng was pleasantly surprised to see the considerably friendly interaction between Xie Yao and Shen Xinya. However, all this was mainly due to Gu Qianxue; she continued to ask Shen Xinya all kinds of questions, as she was always a big fan of Shen Xinya. At the same time, Gu Qianxue made Xie Yao join the conversation in an extremely intelligent manner.

Definitely, if a person dared to treat Gu Qianxue as a dumb girl just because she acted innocent, that person would receive a heavy blow on the head that would make them suffer a lot for that carelessness.

After dinner, Fang Yanran invited Shen Xinya and Yin Yue to stay overnight. At first, Yin Yue fervently refused even flatly rejecting Shen Xinya's request by saying that they had already made reservations for a hotel, but after Fang Yanran insisted a bit, Yin Yue finally conceded and decided to leave early tomorrow morning since it was indeed late at night.

They all went to sleep in different rooms that the maids quickly prepared for them. Xie Feng was naturally a little uncomfortable at first as he had gotten used to Gu Qianxue sleeping next to him.

However, soon Xie Feng was glad to be completely alone, because he wanted to try something in the night...

-Xie Feng's temporary room.

It was about 01:00 in the morning and the mansion was completely silent. The only thing that could be heard was the sound of the wind whooshing softly outside the window.

Xie Feng's eyes, which were closed, slowly opened. His normally dark as night eyes turned as blue as the daytime sky for a moment before returning to normal.

What Xie Feng had just done was to inspect that everyone was in their own rooms, resting properly. What surprised him a little was that Xie Yao, Gu Qianxue and Shen Xinya were actually sleeping in Gu Qianxue's room. The three girls were lying on a large custom-sized bed and their breaths were consistent, clearly the three of them had entered the land of dreams.

After being silent for a moment, Xie Feng slowly stood up.

Due to what he was about to do, Xie Feng needed to protect Xie Yao somehow. Unfortunately, if he went too far away from her, his senses would lose her and if something bad happened during that time, Xie Feng would not be able to forgive himself even in death.

Therefore, after hesitating for a moment and remembering what Xie Yao had told him before leaving the military base, Xie Feng made a decision.

Whoosh!

Xie Feng disappeared from his room and the next second appeared inside Gu Qianxue's room. He quietly approached the bed and gently covered Xie Yao's mouth.

Xie Yao's eyes widened immediately, frightened by the sudden situation. However, just as she was about to struggle, she saw those bright blue eyes looking at her and, instead of panicking, she quickly calmed down.

Seeing that Xie Yao easily recognized him and calmed down, Xie Feng withdrew his hand slowly and whispered in her ear:

"Yaoyao, do you want to see the stars?"

At first, Xie Yao was confused. She did not understand the reason why Xie Feng would suddenly appear in the room. But what she did not expect was that Xie Feng would ask her such a strange question.

After looking at the two girls who were still sleeping peacefully beside her, Xie Yao looked at Xie Feng and nodded softly without saying anything.

Seeing her nod and agree, Xie Feng carried her like a princess in his arms and with a small movement, their bodies disappeared from the room.

Over the sky of Beijing city.

Going beyond the clouds, Xie Feng's body and Xie Yao's body in his arms slowly materialized.

Although Xie Yao was only wearing thin sleeping clothes, she did not feel any cold as Xie Feng had created a small barrier around her body. Otherwise, she would not be able to withstand the pressure of the wind along with the cold winter temperatures at such a high altitude.

Xie Yao's eyes were misty as she looked at the beautiful bright white lights in front of her eyes. When was the last time she had seen the stars? Xie Yao could not remember clearly, but it was probably when she was still a little girl and her parents were still alive.

She did not expect that such a simple comment from her would cause that Xie Feng would take it seriously enough to do something like that.

Finally, after several minutes of peaceful and harmonious tactful silence between the two of them, she couldn't help but sink her head into Xie Feng's chest and whisper:

"Thank you... You really are the best. I'm the luckiest girl in the world."

Xie Feng looked at her with a smile and shook his head:

"If anyone is lucky here, it's me. Your kind personality and the purity of your thoughts as well as that kindness that lights up your soul makes you very different and special from the rest of the people. How could I not do something so simple for you? In truth, it's my fault for realizing something so simple after such a long time..."

"It's not like that! I know better than anyone how many things weigh on your mind and how much effort you've put in during these years. No one has the right to criticize you... Least of all me, who can do nothing more than look your back in silence..."

Xie Yao whispered with a somewhat guilty tone at the end.

Xie Feng smiled bitterly. With a soft and gentle movement, he slowly kissed her lips and changed the topic:

"Well, let's put aside the sad topics. I didn't bring you here to make you sad... Besides, don't thank me yet... There's something else I'd like to try."

Then, while looking at the night sky above his head, Xie Feng narrowed his eyes and said slowly:

"Maybe you and I can see the stars more closely..."

What Xie Feng was about to test was really dangerous. If things went well, then he would get not only some answers that were currently in doubt, but he would also get a way to train his currently out-of-control strength. After all, it would be bad for him to go around opening doors and destroying houses because he couldn't control his own physical strength.

However, precisely because what he was going to do was dangerous, he needed to do something about Xie Yao first.

Because if things went wrong, he was only 70% sure of surviving... But Xie Yao, who was just a normal human, could never survive what Xie Feng had in mind.

Although Xie Feng was almost 100% sure that his thoughts were correct, he was not willing to risk the life of the person most important to him.
