Chapter 222 Leng Meng Goes Berserk
Scene change: Abyss Prison, Leng Meng's office.
Lin Feng and Vivian stopped outside Leng Meng's office.
After exchanging a glance, Lin Feng took a deep breath and knocked on the heavy door with his finger.
"Enter."
Leng Meng's cold voice came from behind the door.
Lin Feng pushed open the door and entered, with Vivian quietly following half a step behind him.
Behind the desk, Leng Meng was looking down at the documents.
Hearing the noise, she looked up and saw Lin Feng. As usual, a gentle look flashed across her eyes.
But the next second, when his gaze fell on Vivian behind him, that gentleness froze instantly, turning into a clear look of doubt.
The two stood side by side, their expressions conveying a tacit understanding that needed no words. This sight made Leng Meng instinctively furrow her brow.
"Dr. Vivian," she put down the documents, "if it's for examining injuries, I think the infirmary would be a more professional place. Besides, I don't have any special problems with my body that require special attention."
Lin Feng took a step forward.
"Mengmeng, my S-rank clear has been confirmed. I have less than 23 hours to stay in the Abyss Prison."
"I came here hoping that you could leave with me—back to the Tranquil Quadrant."
Leng Meng was suddenly taken aback.
The surprise stemmed first from that affectionate way of addressing her—he actually called her that in front of Vivian.
The deeper shock came from the weighty invitation in his words.
She shook her head almost without hesitation, her gaze returning to the document:
"I'm afraid that won't work. With Cyrus killed, the various factions in the Abyss Prison need to be rebalanced."
"Now that I've taken this position, I must see it through to the end. This place... needs me!"
Lin Feng knew she would say that, so he had to present the decisive facts.
"It's not just because I want to take you away, Mengmeng." He took a deep breath, "It's because our relationship... has become an unbreakable bond. You're carrying our child."
Leng Meng suddenly raised her head, her pupils contracted sharply, and for the first time, a look of shock and absurdity appeared on her face, almost to the point of losing her composure.
"Lin Feng, do you know what you're saying? This is impossible! There's a difference in our life forms!"
"How could human life-sustaining factors possibly implant and develop stably within my body?"
Just then, Vivian, who had been quietly observing, stepped forward:
"Warden Leng Meng, it's true. I assure you with the professional judgment of a medical officer."
Leng Meng's sharp, piercing gaze instantly shifted to Vivian: "You? What makes you so certain?"
Vivian met her gaze without flinching, though her cheeks flushed slightly.
"Because... I just had the same test done. I'm also pregnant with Lin Feng's child."
These words were like a thunderclap, exploding in Leng Meng's ears!
The air in the office seemed to freeze instantly.
The color drained from Leng Meng's face in an instant. Her eyes, which always held a calm, decisive, and even ruthless air, were wide open at this moment. The emotion inside quickly transformed from extreme shock to furious rage at being fooled and betrayed!
"What...did you...say?!" She said, each word distinct and forced out through clenched teeth, her voice low and menacing.
She slowly stood up from the chair, her gaze fixed on Lin Feng, burning with a cold flame.
Lin Feng felt a chill run down his spine as she stared at him, a cold sensation shooting from his tailbone to the top of his head.
It’s over.
He wailed inwardly.
This fire will probably burn him to ashes from head to toe.
"You, Lin Feng!" Her voice suddenly rose, "I really underestimated you! Having two women on each side, enjoying the best of both worlds, huh?!"
She grew angrier as she spoke, grabbing a hard metal pen holder from the table and clenching her fists tightly!
"Snap! Bang—!"
The stainless steel pen holder was squeezed so hard in her palm that it deformed and shattered!
"What do you take us for? Spoils to be collected at will? Or tools for your insatiable reproductive desires?!"
Before she could finish speaking, her figure suddenly blurred!
The black sword "Eternal Night" leaning against the desk seemed to sense its master's boundless rage, humming as it automatically leaped into her hand!
The pitch-black blade light tore through the air, carrying the resolute determination to annihilate everything, and slashed straight at Lin Feng's neck!
The blade stopped abruptly just one centimeter from the skin.
It's not because the threshold for triggering the "peaceful coexistence" rule hasn't been reached yet.
It was Leng Meng's own hand that, against her killing intent and instinct, abruptly stopped.
The air currents generated by the hovering blade severed several strands of Lin Feng's hair.
Vivian gasped in surprise, only catching her breath when she saw Lin Feng was unharmed. She rushed forward:
"Sister Meng! Listen to me, even powerful lion prides in nature..."
"I can't accept this!"
Leng Meng interrupted her, her voice soft yet crisp and resolute like a shard of ice falling to the ground.
With a flick of her wrist, the long sword clattered back into its sheath.
"You may leave."
Lin Feng's heart stopped: "Mengmeng, let me explain..."
"Take your Vivian," she interrupted again, her voice eerily calm, "and leave my office immediately, leave Abyss Prison. Never, ever appear before me again."
She slowly raised her hand, her fingertips pointing towards the door.
"As for the child... I will have it." She paused, "and raise it alone."
"No! How can you raise a child alone in a place like this! Mengmeng!" Lin Feng wanted to step forward, but he was rooted to the spot by the completely frozen wasteland in her eyes.
"Someone come here!!!"
With her last bit of strength, Leng Meng grabbed the phone on the table and shouted sharply into the receiver.
Soon, the office door was pushed open, and three fully armed guards filed in.
"Warrior!"
"Get those two out," Leng Meng turned her back, leaving only a cold, straight back, "and make sure they leave. Effective immediately, Lin Feng is permanently banned from entering the Abyss Prison."
The guards immediately stepped forward and gestured for the two to leave.
As Lin Feng was performing the simulation, he felt a sharp, throbbing pain in his heart, just like in real life, and a feeling of suffocation.
This simulation failed!
Vivian's acceptance did not soften Leng Meng in the slightest; instead, it acted as a catalyst, igniting her deepest pride and trauma.
A dormitory bed in real life.
"Cough...!" Lin Feng suddenly broke free from the deduction state.
Lin Feng leaned against the pillow, his thoughts racing.
Leng Meng must be convinced that she embarked on this path of "many children, many blessings" not out of greed or indulgence, but out of desperation when she was forced into a corner.
Only by evoking her resonance as a strong person—anger at the cruel twists of fate, and respect for the instinct for survival—could her frozen heart be touched.
The best reason would be a "strange disease" or a "curse".
But Leng Meng is incredibly perceptive; she will definitely try her best to verify it.
Once the lie is exposed, trust will be completely shattered, which would be a more terrible outcome than expulsion.
Well then... we can only ask the "system" for help.
After all, you wouldn't want to be exposed, would you, System...?
