Urban All-Round Master

Chapter 952: Chapter 981: You Are Just a Dog

”Men? Beasts are men, after all.” Huahua said while applying nail polish, giving her a sideways glance, sweating profusely.

”Huahua, that’s not what I mean, I’m saying the Uncle is manly, real tough guy!” Liu Tangtang gave a thumbs up.

”Which aspect are you referring to?” Huahua continued to ask.

Liu Tangtang, annoyed, glared at her and said with disdain, ”Hey! Huahua, you’re really too evil. I’m not talking about that aspect, I mean the Uncle is a true man, he just doesn’t want to say some things.”

...

The two girls were talking about someone, one sentence after another.

However, after Lin Zifeng finished his shower, he didn’t rush off to cultivate, but wandered outside Nangong Bing’s room, wanting to say something to her.

After all, in one day, he has to leave Zhonghai, leaving the woman he loves most, his most painful weakness. Whether he’ll be able to return this time is unknown.

”Knock knock—”

The door of the room was knocked.

Inside, Nangong Bing was reviewing the latest market data analysis of the company’s venture into Dragon City.

Back in the day, Tianyu Group had branches all over Eastern Earth, and had even listed in New York. But due to Nangong Shui’s poor decisions, Tianyu had an economic decline, and in just a few years, all of its financed stocks were wasted.

Not only did Tianyu’s stock plummet, but many people’s shares also became worthless.

After that, Tianyu’s status in Eastern Earth declined sharply until Nangong Bing succeeded her father and slowly turned things around, though it still hasn’t reached its original peak. This is a heavy burden in Nangong Bing’s heart, so she’s always been working hard, never letting herself relax...

”Please...”

Halfway through the sentence, Nangong Bing raises her elegant eyebrows slightly, thinking the one knocking is certainly Lin Zifeng, as no one else bothers her this late.

Judging by the pattern of the knocks, it’s definitely not Huahua and the others.

”Come in, there’s no one else.”

Sure enough—

The door creaked open, Lin Zifeng walked in with his hands casually in his pockets, his eyes bright and piercing.

”Still working so late?”

Lin Zifeng asked with a smile, then continued with a teasing tone: ”Bringing work home is not a good habit. You ought to learn to relax and let go sometimes, overworking isn’t good for your mood.”

Hearing Lin Zifeng’s concern, Nangong Bing glanced at him, her heart feeling sweet like candy.

”If I don’t do this, things will just pile up even more. I don’t want to be overwhelmed when I start work tomorrow.”

”With so many senior executives at Tianyu Group, isn’t there anyone who can help alleviate your worries?” Lin Zifeng touched his nose and approached Nangong Bing, wrapping an arm around her waist.

Nangong Bing didn’t dodge, her round eyes fixated on the door.

It seemed she wanted to say something but found it difficult to voice.

Lin Zifeng chuckled, saying: ”Are you worried Huahua and the girls will barge in? Don’t worry, I just have something to say, then I’ll leave.”

”Where to?”

Nangong Bing’s bright eyes gazed at his face.

”Are you going to Heavenly Gate?”

”Yes.

”No! That’s too dangerous. Are you really sure you’ll be safe coming back?”

With that, tears started to well up in Nangong Bing’s eyes. She knew a bit about Lin Zifeng’s background and was aware this day would come, though she didn’t expect it to come so suddenly, so soon.

”I have no choice.” Lin Zifeng said in a low voice: ”I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time, even dreaming about it.”

”But... but if you go, can you really come back?”

Nangong Bing asked worriedly.

She knew about Lin Zifeng’s background and his entanglements with Heavenly Gate; back in the Amazon Rainforest, Lin Zifeng had killed skilled mercenaries hired by Heavenly Gate.

”Of course! I’ve said it before, never doubt your husband’s capabilities.” Lin Zifeng shook his middle finger.

”Are you completely confident?”

Nangong Bing asked with furrowed brows.

”Hehe, my dear concubine, don’t worry, do you think I’d do something without confidence?”

He placed his hands on her delicate shoulders, eyes full of tremendous confidence and spirit.

An irresistible aura that made Nangong Bing subconsciously affirm him.

”Lin Zifeng, I’m serious, can’t you be a bit proper?”

”I’m serious too, didn’t you see that?”

Lin Zifeng pretended to be relaxed, smiling: ”Maybe this time it will take half a month. If you have any issue, you can always call my assistant, his name is Shao Huo, he can help you. Also, when you go to work in the future, it’s best to bring the handsome guy along, this way I’ll feel more assured.”

”Why? Why should I bring the handsome guy to work?” Nangong Bing didn’t quite understand his words.

She’s a very smart woman and can usually guess things easily.

Her charming eyes gleamed as she stared at him.

Lin Zifeng shrugged, pouting, saying nonchalantly: ”Just listen to me, take him with you. With his impressive physique, even if someone wants to threaten you, they’d have to think twice because of him, don’t worry, having him with you is beneficial.” Lin Zifeng chuckled.

”Alright then, if you want him to come along, I’ll take him.”

”Hehe, now that’s an obedient concubine. Come on, darling, let me kiss you. We haven’t kissed in a while, let’s have a kiss?”

Lin Zifeng winked at her, moving forward to hug her, but she suddenly stepped back.

”They’re still at home.”

”Afraid of what? They’re asleep already, relax, we can kiss without worrying about them.” Lin Zifeng said with an impish and wicked grin.

”No!”

Nangong Bing glared at him.

Instantly, the emotions that had been building up dissipated completely. Her face slightly pale.

”Why can’t I kiss you? We’ve already been through so much, are we afraid of a kiss?”

Lin Zifeng said with a distressed face, not expecting that even kissing would be so difficult now.

”No, I drank a lot of coffee today, my mouth’s a bit bitter, I’ll brush my teeth first.”

With that, Nangong Bing’s face flushed, looking bashful, she turned and headed to the bathroom.
