Chapter 131: The Arrival of Nangong Shui

”Oh! Have a seat for a while; I’ll cook for you. Let’s see how my cooking skills are?”

Mu Yang’s bell-like laughter echoed, and she bustled about.

It seemed that moving in today was just a pretext.

”If there’s nothing else, I should be going now, otherwise my wife will start to worry,” Lin Zifeng didn’t want to stay any longer as the situation seemed a bit fishy. If he continued to linger, who knew what complications might arise?

”Hey! Don’t rush off. I bought a lot of groceries today. You should at least have a meal before you go. Let’s see how my cooking is.”

Seeing Lin Zifeng getting restless, Mu Yang quickly stepped forward and blocked his way with open arms.

”Manager Mu, you’re not moving today after all, and now you want me to stay for dinner? You’re not falling for me, are you?” Lin Zifeng asked, smoking his cigarette and looking at her with a half-smile.

Under Lin Zifeng’s gaze, Mu Yang seemed unnerved and began to feel awkward, her lightly made-up, clean face blushing slightly.

”Wha-what? How could that be possible? I could never fall for you. Originally, I planned to move tonight, but, you see, I thought on my way here that living here isn’t too bad. So, I decided not to move after all. Since you’re already here, why not stay for a meal before leaving, and see how good my cooking really is? Rate it for me. If I ever get a boyfriend, they say you need to capture a man’s heart through his stomach. Since you’re also a man, you’d have the most say.”

This woman was seriously amusing. Wanting to keep Lin Zifeng here, why come up with such a strange excuse?

Even if you needed a man to taste-test your cooking, why on earth must it be me?

Lin Zifeng was somewhat puzzled: ”Uh... just so you know, I am an omnivore. I can eat anything that’s edible.”

”Hehe, then that’s settled. Since you can eat anything, why not stay for the meal before you go? I know you’re thinking something sneaky, but rest assured, I, Mu Yang, even if desperate, couldn’t possibly choose someone like you. With my family background, how could I go for a mere security guard like you? Besides, in terms of social status, you’re not exactly a match for me either.”

”Since it’s like this, I might as well stay.”

After such an explanation, Lin Zifeng, no matter how thick-skinned, couldn’t possibly delude himself any further. He just sat down, watching the TV programs indifferently.

”Alright then.”

Mu Yang showed a delighted expression, then, feeling very sweet inside, dashed to the kitchen, not forgetting to make a victory gesture.

Her radiant smile was so wide she could hardly keep her lips together. Although Mu Yang was twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, to say the least, she maintained herself quite well, just like an eighteen-year-old girl, especially with her delicate, graceful figure, sensuously curvy in all the right places. She had just changed into informal attire when she arrived home, and the form-fitting clothes brought out more flattering conjectures.

...

Meanwhile, Nangong Bing had just returned home only to discover her father, Nangong Shui, leisurely sitting on the sofa with Huahua, snacking and watching Korean dramas!

Nangong Bing, already in a bad mood, felt her temper flare even more.

”Dad! How come you’re here?”

The sudden visit from her father surprised Nangong Bing. Wasn’t he abroad? How come he had returned all of a sudden?

Moreover, returning should at least warrant a phone call first; she had received no news at all, and he had just shown up out of the blue, and even arranged an fiancé for her!

”Oh? Bingbing, you’re back?”

The middle-aged man looked benign despite his silver hair, which did not make him seem old at all. In fact, his skin was even more radiant than that of some younger people. Wearing a loose traditional Chinese robe and holding a purple clay teapot, he appeared quite energetic.

”What is this...?”

Every movement exuded an overwhelming and profound aura.

”Oh, Bingbing, how do you feel about the person I introduced to you?”

The middle-aged man had a gentle smile, his tone filled with indulgence, clearly treasuring his daughter as if she were his life.

Meanwhile, Huahua was munching on snacks while staring with wide, puzzled eyes, ”Uncle, who did you introduce to my cousin? Do I know him?”

”Hehe...”

Just as Nangong Shui was about to explain, Nangong Bing interrupted, ”That! Dad, the bodyguard you introduced, I, I am quite satisfied with him, except for his idleness all day long.”

To prevent Huahua from knowing the truth, Nangong Bing was still a bit scared. If Huahua knew, who knows what would happen, it might just shock the poor girl to death!

Even if looking for a husband, why choose someone like Lin Zifeng, who lacks both status and wealth, a total clod.

”Bodyguard? Uncle, is that annoying guy really the bodyguard you introduced?” The young girl pouted, clearly dissatisfied, her face practically saying that the bodyguard was completely unacceptable.

Nangong Shui was also stunned. How come? Did he really become a bodyguard? Wasn’t it agreed that he was to be your fiancé?

”This, this, you must be very tired from your long journey. Let’s go to the room and talk.”

Nangong Bing quickly changed out of her high heels and pushed the middle-aged man into the room.

Seeing this, Hua Buqi also became puzzled. What is so secretive about this?

...

About half an hour later, Mu Yang had almost finished preparing three Western-style steaks and several Chinese cold dishes.

Seeing the eager look on Lin Zifeng’s face, a hint of happiness flickered across Mu Yang’s youthful face.

”How about it? Is my cooking alright?”

Mu Yang, like a demure housewife in an apron, had a blushing face that was slightly excited and rosy, as this was the first time she cooked a meal for a man.

”Hmm, just by looking at the colors of the dishes, my appetite is whet!” Lin Zifeng, with his greedy, impatient expression, kept complimenting the food, and Mu Yang truly felt satisfied listening to him. At least her efforts were not in vain.

”Here, just eating isn’t enough, right? Let’s drink some red wine, how romantic.”

Watching Mu Yang’s satisfied face as she went to fetch the wine, Lin Zifeng began to worry a bit inside.

”Drink wine? Do we really need to?”

”What’s the problem? You’re not driving tonight anyway. Even if you get drunk, it’s no trouble. My house is big enough. If you can’t go home tonight, just stay over. I won’t eat you up.”

Um... I’m not afraid of you eating me, I’m afraid I might eat you!

Lin Zifeng thought to himself, realizing he might need some self-control tonight, otherwise he might really do something outrageous.
