Chapter 153 How dare he touch Leng Meng's hair!
The sharp-eyed guard on the right shook his head: "The deputy warden hasn't started work yet; her office hours are 9 a.m.
"9 o'clock?! Then...where can we find her? This is extremely urgent!" Lin Feng asked anxiously.
The guard with the scar on his left pointed behind the administration building: "That five-story red dormitory building behind there, she lives in room 501."
"Thank you!" Lin Feng said, and immediately ran towards the side of the administration building.
Passing the administration building, a slightly old, dark red brick dormitory building came into view.
The building is not tall, only five stories high, and the walls are covered with withered vines and branches, with a simple and even somewhat depressing style.
Without hesitation, Lin Feng rushed into the open building.
The building was quiet, and fortunately, I didn't encounter anything strange as I walked up the stairs.
He rushed up to the fifth floor and found room 501.
Standing in front of the door, Lin Feng took a deep breath, then gently knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" A slightly languid female voice came from inside; it was Leng Meng!
Lin Feng took a deep breath, trying to keep his voice as clear as possible:
"Deputy Warden, it's me, trainee prison guard Lin Feng! I have a very important and urgent situation to report to you immediately!"
A faint rustling sound came from inside, seemingly the sound of dressing and walking.
About a minute later, the door lock clicked open.
The cold-faced man behind the door was a completely different person from the meticulous and stern deputy warden in the office yesterday.
She was casually wearing a dark gray silk shirt, with the top two buttons undone, revealing her delicate collarbone.
He was wearing the same military green uniform trousers he had worn yesterday.
Her long, jet-black hair cascaded smoothly over her shoulders. Her face was bare of makeup, and she looked sleepy from just waking up, yet her striking and sharp features were still undeniable.
The room was a large open space, and through the doorway, one could see that the living area was separated from the main living area by a dark wooden screen.
The area near the entrance serves as a small living room, simply furnished but neatly organized.
"Tell me, what is it?" Leng Meng asked while putting on her uniform jacket.
Their attitude wasn't exactly enthusiastic, but there wasn't much resistance either.
Clearly, the high-end skincare products Lin Feng gave me yesterday did have some softening effect.
Lin Feng stated succinctly: "Reporting to the Deputy Warden, my roommate Tom's appearance has changed. According to Rule 2 of the dormitory rules, I need to report this to you immediately."
Upon hearing this, Leng Meng's languid expression instantly vanished: "Your appearance has changed? Are you sure?!"
"Confirmed! All three of us have confirmed it." Lin Feng's tone was resolute.
Leng Meng's pupils contracted slightly, and she immediately asked, "Where is Tom now?"
"They were held captive in dormitory 107 by Vassim and tied up."
A hint of surprise flashed in Leng Meng's eyes as she re-examined Lin Feng, her tone carrying a subtle hint of approval:
"I didn't expect you interns to be so capable!"
As she spoke, she turned and walked quickly to the table in the small living room, picked up an old-fashioned landline phone, and quickly dialed a short number.
"The cleaners?" Her voice regained its cold, professional edge. "Immediately to the D-sector, 107 trainee guard dormitory. Deal with the 'anomaly' inside. I repeat, D-sector, 107, move out immediately!"
After hanging up the phone, she looked at Lin Feng with deep eyes: "Perfect timing, I'm going to the cafeteria too. Wait for me, let's go together."
This invitation was unexpected for Lin Feng, but he nodded in agreement with almost no hesitation, a look of delight on his face:
"Yes, Deputy Warden."
Leng Meng neatly gathered her long hair and was about to secure it with a hair clip when she frowned slightly.
A stray strand of hair always slipped through her fingers, preventing her from neatly coiling it into a tight bun.
I tried twice, but that strand of hair still stubbornly hung down, ruining the overall meticulousness.
Looking at her slightly furrowed brows and that unruly strand of hair, Lin Feng couldn't help but feel a stirring in his heart. This was an excellent and natural opportunity to get closer.
He stepped forward and tentatively asked, "Do you need any help?"
Leng Meng paused, then looked up at him.
The young man's eyes were clear, filled with pure kindness.
She hesitated for a moment, then nodded gently: "Mm."
With permission granted, Lin Feng took a deep breath and walked to her side.
He didn't act immediately. Instead, he carefully observed the texture of her hair and the direction of her updo before reaching out with extreme caution and pinching the unruly strand of hair.
The touch from his fingertips was unexpectedly soft, like the finest cool silk, carrying a pleasant fragrance that quietly seeped into his breath.
He composed himself, first gently smoothing the strand of hair, then skillfully integrating it into the overall hairstyle, and then helping her to coil and secure the hair.
"All done." After finishing, Lin Feng handed her the military cap with the badge that was on the table.

Studio:
"Holy crap! Feng is awesome! You can't mess with a tiger's butt, but he really dares to style a tiger's hair like that!"
"Who says you can't touch a tiger's backside? You'll see in the next episode!"
"Go, Feng-ge! Let's try to get our Commander Leng Meng on maternity leave as soon as possible! (Just kidding!)"
"This scene is too beautiful to look at... but please give me more! I'll savor this sweetness first!"
"From tying down colleagues to scheming against superiors, Lin Feng perfectly portrays the character in 'Abyss Prison Promotion Guide: From Entry-Level to Married-in-Law'."
"Reported! Someone's exploiting a dungeon bug to farm boss favorability! ...Well done, Feng-ge!"
........................
Leng Meng glanced at the dressing mirror by the porch. Her hair was neat and tidy, perfectly meeting the standard, even more so than her usual hasty combing.
[Ding! Leng Meng'an's favorability +10]
Current favorability rating: 30/100
"Let's go." Leng Meng put on her military cap, adjusted the brim, and resumed her cold and capable appearance before walking out first.
Lin Feng immediately followed, and the two walked one after the other through the central courtyard of the prison.
The prison compound was still shrouded in a thin mist in the early morning. Dewdrops clung to the barbed wire wrapped around the high walls, sparkling like shattered diamonds in the rising sun.
Several prisoners were silently sweeping fallen leaves from the stone path, the brooms making a rhythmic rustling sound as they swept across the ground.
Two steps away, Lin Feng's gaze fell on Leng Meng's tall and straight back.
The military uniform perfectly accentuated her sharp features, and her every step exuded an undeniable aura.
His eyes flickered slightly, and he quietly activated [Desire Insight] (12-hour cooldown expired) —
An invisible ripple of perception spread out like watermarks, sweeping towards the slender yet aloof figure ahead.
In an instant, a clear stream of information about "desire" flooded into Lin Feng's mind:
[A desire: to be challenged by humans.]
[I long to see someone break free from the shackles of fear and rules, stand on an equal footing, or even a superior one, and launch an attack on her with wisdom or strength.]
[Background Reflection:]
I feel extremely disappointed and weary of the successive batches of trainee prison guards who are as docile as quails, only capable of trembling in fear or fawning.
[They harbored a very subtle expectation and curiosity about the potential hidden within humankind, but this expectation remained unfulfilled for so long that they were almost ready to give up.]
Lin Feng's brows furrowed involuntarily, forming a deep frown. This cold-faced commander's quirks were truly unique.
A desire to be challenged by humans? What kind of bizarre masochistic tendency is this?
Sure enough, you can't guess what's going on in his mind!
