Chapter 295: Clubhouse Turmoil

In the scorching summer sun, a Lamborghini came to a stop in the city center’s leisure district. Lin Zifeng was lounging inside with his legs crossed, taking a drag from his cigarette while admiring the parade of white thighs and enticing black stockings on the street. He shook his head and nodded, his eyes shining with delight, looking thoroughly pleased with the view.

It turns out that driving a car to the roadside to watch beautiful women can also be a kind of unique enjoyment in Zhonghai City.

When Nangong Bing, wearing sunglasses, walked out of the supermarket, Lin Zifeng hurriedly flicked the cigarette butt away. If Nangong Bing saw him smoking inside her beloved car, she’d probably break his legs.

”Wife’s back, huh?” Lin Zifeng greeted her with a flattering smile.

”What did you just say?” Nangong Bing took off her sunglasses halfway, glared at him, and threatened him mockingly.

”Oh! Heh, I was calling you ’Boss.’ Maybe you heard wrong,” he hurriedly explained, opening the door for Nangong Bing.

”Smooth talker, never saying anything serious.” Nangong Bing gave him a deep glare, then slowly moved to get into the car.

”Hey, Boss, what are you going to do about that guy who wants to hit on you?” Nangong Bing had just entered the car when this guy’s comment left her expressionless, a surge of fury rising within her.

”Lin, are you looking to die or what? I have nothing to do with him; what do you mean by saying that?” Nangong Bing gently pushed Lin Zifeng’s shoulder from the front seat and, devoid of any ladylike image, placed her hands on her hips in a scolding manner.

”Err...”

Being pushed by her, Lin Zifeng was a bit startled, as if he had been dreaming. He hadn’t expected that after what happened that night, his relationship with Nangong Bing had suddenly become so close, as if they had always been a couple.

This left Lin Zifeng quite unaccustomed.

”What are you ’erring’ about? I’m talking to you. Did you hear me?”

”Aren’t I listening?” Lin Zifeng rolled his eyes, answering with a face full of helplessness, as if he had just been bullied by the woman behind him.

It looked like this woman had started to make a fuss again.

”You’d better listen carefully. I have absolutely nothing to do with that Mr. Qiao. I didn’t know him at all before. We only accidentally met at the Trading Building last time. You were there too, didn’t you see it? This time he invited me out because our company’s domain forum was hacked, and it was his doing. He also sent me a secret email, which you’ve seen. And there’s more...” To avoid any misunderstanding, Nangong Bing explained everything in one breath, including what had happened at the Trading Building last time.

Listening to her, Lin Zifeng’s ears almost felt calloused.

”Boss, actually, you don’t have to explain it to me so clearly, I understand,” Lin Zifeng said, turning back seriously.

”...”

Nangong Bing was taken aback and rendered speechless. She had just intended to clarify everything to him, but this scoundrel had answered so bluntly, leaving Nangong Bing looking extremely troubled.

”Since you understand, then why did you say that? Do you think it’s possible for me to have some sort of encounter with him?” Nangong Bing’s gambit of fake anger was particularly splendid, the only thing missing was her placing her hands on her hips and stamping her feet. What infuriated Lin Zifeng the most was that she had referred to herself as ’the palace’ in front of him, as if she didn’t acknowledge him as her husband-in-name. So, does she expect me to be her servant?

”Hey hey, Nangong Bing, why do you always have to beat me down when we talk? You really shouldn’t do that,” Lin Zifeng said, taking a puff from his cigarette and turning back with a grin.

”When have I ever put you down? Don’t go spreading rumors!” Nangong Bing was also frustrated. What’s the big deal with referring to myself in the third person as ’His/Her Grace’? But seeing Lin Zifeng’s wronged expression, I did feel a bit of a guilty pleasure. That’s exactly the effect I wanted. From now on, when we’re alone, I’ll refer to myself as ’His/Her Grace’ and see what you can do about it, Nangong Bing.

Thinking about it, Nangong Bing couldn’t help but feel thrilled. It was rare for her to get the upper hand in a verbal sparring match with Lin Zifeng. This was practically a defiance of the natural order. Normally, it would be anyone’s guess who’d have the advantage.

Ah, forget about it. If I keep arguing with her, who knows what might happen? When you enter the bureaucratic world, it’s as deep as the sea; from then on, ’X’ is just a passerby.

Seeing Lin Zifeng turn his head around, his sharply defined face fell silent, and Nangong Bing realized it was time to stop joking around.

”Boss, what’s the plan now? Going straight home, or do you want to hang out somewhere?”

”Hmm, let me think.”

Apparently in a great mood today, the conflict between the two seemed to have vanished almost entirely. Their conversation was also slowly becoming more attuned, a lot better than their constant bickering from the past few days.

At this moment, Nangong Bing had completely forgotten the scene at the café. As far as she was concerned, Qiao Bu’en could be completely ignored, like someone she never knew, someone not worth acknowledging. Even if he really wanted to pursue her, she shouldn’t forget that she had a bodyguard.

”How about... we visit a women’s beauty salon?” It had been quite a while since she last visited one. Today, she finally had a day off and, with the ever-increasing pollution in the city, office workers living in the city like her had the roughest skin. They not only faced computers every day but also increasing life pressures, especially for women, so skin care was a crucial part of their routine.

”A women’s beauty salon? Boss, are you kidding? Just look at you, do you even need a beauty salon?” Lin Zifeng, without turning his head, actually spoke a sincere truth this time.

Suddenly, Nangong Bing’s tender heart felt a sweet sensation. After hearing Lin Zifeng’s words, she hadn’t expected this guy whom she always disliked to say something so sweet. Well, at least he knew how to make some decent conversation; his words really struck a chord with Nangong Bing’s heart.

”Beauty salons are not just for beauty per se, but more for maintenance. Maintenance, do you get that? There’s no use explaining it to you; you wouldn’t understand. Besides, what would a big man like you know about maintenance? No point in telling you, you wouldn’t get it. Just drive to the nearest beauty salon,” Nangong Bing said, too lazy to explain any further. It was likely he wouldn’t understand even if she did.

”Roger that!”

Lin Zifeng quickly started the car and headed straight to the nearest beauty salon according to the navigation coordinates...

In just a little while, the two arrived at the designated beauty salon. Fortunately, the traffic in Zhonghai City wasn’t too bad. If it were like Dragon City, they wouldn’t have made it in half a day.

”Here we are, boss. Let’s get out.”

Looking at the chicly decorated, even somewhat extravagantly luxurious beauty salon, Lin Zifeng felt secretly astonished. He hadn’t imagined that beauty salons in Huaxia could be so luxurious. Just casually putting on a facial mask could cost a few hundred bucks, right?

”Aren’t you coming in?” After getting out of the car, Nangong Bing felt something was missing and suddenly looked back to ask.

”Boss, places like this are for women. What would I be doing in there, getting in the way? You go ahead. I’ll just stay outside and have a smoke while I wait for you,” Lin Zifeng said. Entering a women’s beauty and privacy-oriented establishment was like asking for trouble.
