Urban All-Round Master

Chapter 1073: Chapter 1107: Tricking Shao Huo Into Seeing Beauties

Unintentionally, Lin Zifeng discovered a very conspicuous sign placed next to the fruit stand in the hall.

Without thinking, he took a cigarette out of his pocket and lit it, took a deep drag, and squinted his eyes deliberately while exhaling a thick plume of smoke.

”Sir, I’m sorry, but smoking is not allowed here in public areas.”

The waiter politely approached.

”No smoking? What if I can’t smoke? Am I supposed to suffocate then?” Lin Zifeng feigned a gloomy face, puffing away, ignoring the dirty looks from onlookers.

”Sir, smoking here might affect other diners. If you need to smoke, there’s a smoking room outside. Please finish your cigarette there before coming back,” the waiter was being quite accommodating.

”Xixi, when Brother Lin gets the urge to smoke, it feels awful, like there’s a caterpillar crawling in my throat. How about you eat first while I take care of this damn smoking urge?”

Lin Zifeng said with a cheerful grin.

”Alright then, you go ahead, I’ll wait for you.” Zhang Xixi nodded graciously.

Gosh! I’m so clever to find an excuse like this...

Lin Zifeng was delighted, quickly heading to Mu Yang’s private room, worried Mu Yang might think he’s fallen into the toilet if he doesn’t hurry.

As soon as he reached the seventh floor, Lin Zifeng realized something was off. If he kept running like this, he might exhaust himself tonight and still not manage the situation. So he needed a plan, a helper, or else who knows how long before he gets exposed?

Pulling out his phone, among everyone Lin Zifeng could think of, it had to be Shao Huo.

This guy’s mind reacts quickly, and although naturally sly, he’s mellowed a bit over time, regaining himself quite fast, so Lin Zifeng decided to call him in.

”Hey, Lin, are you looking for me?”

Shao Huo answered Lin Zifeng’s call in surprise, pleased to receive a call from his boss.

”Been bored at home all day, haven’t you thought about going out for a bit?”

Lin Zifeng’s voice echoed casually through the phone.

”...”

Shao Huo dared not speak.

”Come over, I’ll take you out for seafood and to check out beautiful women tonight, how’s that?” Lin Zifeng was a bit dismayed, surprised at his recent cleverness, not getting a response.

”Just the two of us for seafood and beautiful women?”

Shao Huo was excited, but after a moment of thought, he felt something was off. If that were the case, why would Lin Zifeng specifically call him? There are many high-ranking people in the Nantian Gang, it wouldn’t be just him, right? If invited, it should be a group outing.

”That’s right. And if seafood and beautiful women aren’t enough, you can add some entertainment tonight too.”

”Coming or not? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, miss it and you’ll have to wait a long time.” Lin Zifeng added another line.

At that, with his inherently flashy nature, Shao Huo’s eyes gleamed with excitement.

”I’m coming, why wouldn’t I? Where are you now, boss? I’ll head over right away!”

Shao Huo was positively drooling; it’s been a while since he had a meal out with Lin Zifeng, and he was quite unwilling to miss out.

”I’ll send you the address later, just call me when you arrive.”

Hanging up the phone, Lin Zifeng smiled, amazed at how easily fooled the guy was.

Oh... brother, there’s no other way. If you don’t make a little sacrifice, I’m doomed.

Entering Mu Yang’s private room, Lin Zifeng felt some pain from his wound due to the drinking earlier—an old injury from his time with the Ability Society. Were it not for the protection from the Magic Bracelet and his own healing abilities, he’d have been unable to withstand this damage.

”He’s back, Yangyang, your boyfriend finally returned.”

”Where did you go?” Mu Yang gently pulled Lin Zifeng close.

”To the toilet, and then made a quick call.” Lin Zifeng said plainly.

Seeing everyone in the room staring at him with a puzzled look, Lin Zifeng felt a bit strange.

”What’s up, why are you staring at me, do I have flowers growing on my face or something?” Lin Zifeng appeared quite calm, even though there were many women he knew—or rather, his old flames—in the hotel.

”Nothing much, come on, let’s have a drink.”

The mature sister approached, her gaze still greedy as ever towards Lin Zifeng.

”That’s about enough, I’ll step out for a moment, a good friend has arrived, I’ll just go see him.”

After drinking, Lin Zifeng continued looking for an excuse to get away.

”Who?”

The mature sister seemed very interested in Lin Zifeng, always curious about his affairs, and had been asking about his private life while he was away. Mu Yang, sharp and insightful, saw through her little tricks, choosing not to divulge anything, leaving her to stew a bit.

”Just a friend.” Lin Zifeng said expressionlessly.

He was quite the expert in handling women, and the chances were high that this mature lady was interested in him.

Though she wasn’t much older, perhaps just a year or two senior to him, she belonged to the age group most ambitious and driven, hard to satisfy. Lin Zifeng had no intention of getting tangled up with her; when it comes time to leave, it would be difficult indeed.

”What kind of friend?”

”A friend’s friend’s friend.” Lin Zifeng said after which he strode out of the private room, his departure cold but leaving an impression of individuality in their eyes.

Oh... when opposites attract, liking someone means everything looks good...

This time, Lin Zifeng didn’t immediately go looking for Zhang Xixi and Linlin, but instead, went up to the eighth floor to see what’s going on with Su Ni. Those two old folks earlier clearly weren’t good people.

He hoped Su Ni wouldn’t suffer at their hands. They barely counted as friends, but at least as close acquaintances.

Standing outside the private room, he activated his Perspective Eye and witnessed with his own eyes how the two old men cooperated seamlessly, taking turns toasting Su Ni.

Already lacking a strong tolerance for alcohol, Su Ni had long been at her limits after several rounds. She tried her best not to lose her cool however.

”Inspector Liu, I really can’t drink anymore. Any more and I’ll be truly drunk.” Su Ni forced a smile, cornered because her father’s official rank was not as high as theirs, having to obey their orders.

And as for the head of the provincial office sitting next to her, he was even more unpleasant.
