Urban All-Round Master

Chapter 1229: Chapter 1263: Conspiracy

“Actually, you misunderstood. The main reason I came was to cooperate with the Jipu Family. After all, I too have ulterior motives for being here. Moreover, I think your family must have the same intentions. To put it bluntly, I’m using your family, and conversely, your family is using me. It’s just that we are pursuing different interests.”

Lin Zifeng said sincerely and earnestly.

Even if he didn’t say it, Monet Yun was already well aware of it in her heart.

He was just expressing it in a straightforward and honest way. A forthright approach is often more straightforward than those who try to be subtle and indirect.

In truth, Lin Zifeng had no feelings for Monet Yun at all.

He knew that the cooperation with the Jipu Family had significant reasons that couldn’t be swayed just by Monet Yun alone. That would make Lin Zifeng appear tasteless.

She was very beautiful, indeed, an absolute beauty. That was undeniable. But with so many beautiful women around Lin Zifeng, if he took them all in just because they were beauties, when would it ever end?

Besides, he wasn’t someone obsessed with beauty.

“You need to know my intention in cooperating with you. Please don’t turn our cooperation into a transaction,” Lin Zifeng said in a calm voice. As he mentioned, cooperation is cooperation; if viewed as a transaction, it loses the essence of true cooperation.

“That’s not what I meant. Maybe you misunderstood me,” Monet Yun said softly, looking pitiful, as if Lin Zifeng had swindled her out of millions and refused to give it back.

This left Lin Zifeng feeling quite troubled. He found himself at a disadvantage for no good reason.

“In fact, I’ve long had a great admiration for Mr. Lin. Your presence here brings me immense honor. Since you’ve given me such honor, as a local courtesy, I wish to present my most precious gift to Mr. Lin, if you wouldn’t mind…”

“No! I mind! I very much mind! If you’re using this method, I not only mind but would prefer if you left,” Lin Zifeng interrupted.

Honestly, her beauty and tenderness were what Lin Zifeng admired the most, but if these were the only criteria for judging a person, then he’d be a fool. He’s not interested in someone just for their looks. He’s here to cooperate, and any extraneous emotions cannot be allowed to interfere.

If tonight’s events were disclosed or spread around, damn it, his reputation would be ruined. And his wife at home, his friends, it would all be hard to explain away. Lin Zifeng wasn’t stupid; he analyzed the situation thoroughly. After all, caution is important.

“Mr. Lin, did I do something wrong? Why are you rejecting me so decisively?” She simply couldn’t understand why Lin Zifeng was rejecting her. Was it because she wasn’t pretty enough, or did she lack the charm compared to the women around him? The more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt, maybe she hadn’t shown her best yet.

But then she started to overthink, wondering why there was no reaction from him.

“Mr. Lin, I have no ill intentions.” Monet Yun took a step forward.

Oh crap!

She’s really serious! Lin Zifeng took a step back, genuinely afraid Monet Yun would go all out.

If he were in a club, encountering such a woman, maybe Lin Zifeng would find her appealing, but now, being in a foreign country, he had no such thoughts. Although he liked Fusang girls, in reality, it was better to let it go.

“Wow~”

Monet Yun said nothing, revealing herself in front of Lin Zifeng.

“What-what are you doing?!”

Lin Zifeng exclaimed, his eyes not daring to fall on her body.

“Mr. Lin, I wouldn’t mind.” Monet Yun had made up her mind to have a relationship with Lin Zifeng.

Suddenly, that pure and lustrous body, like a fine-jade treasure, was laid out before him.

Even if you don’t mind, I do!

Lin Zifeng’s eyes widened, not speaking, but feeling a rush of anxiety in his heart. Why couldn’t this woman understand, no matter how he tried to explain? He had no feelings for her at all. Yet here she was throwing herself at him like a moth to a flame — what was the use of that?

“Puff—”

Monet Yun threw herself into Lin Zifeng’s arms regardless, and under his astonished gaze, she tightly wrapped her arms around his waist, blowing warm, gentle breaths beside his earlobe ~

“Kiss me, hug me, make me feel safe, will you?”

At this moment, Monet Yun’s chest was heaving heavily, her breathing intense, her eyes blurred, and her throat seemed stuck as if close to suffocating.

“Please don’t do this!” Lin Zifeng tried to push her away, but no matter how much effort he put into it, her body stayed tightly pressed against his, and then she subtly reversed the situation, pinning Lin Zifeng heavily against the wooden panels of the sauna room.

However, just as Lin Zifeng was trying every means to reject her, a faint fragrance filled his nostrils, and his body inexplicably felt weak…

Moreover, his head felt particularly swollen, and his once strong consciousness suddenly seemed somewhat weakened.

Monet Yun’s body, crystal clear like jade, pressed closely against his chest, then like a nimble cat, slid down to Lin Zifeng’s lower body—

“What-what do you want to do?!”

Lin Zifeng trembled uncontrollably, but a low growl, like a beast, emerged from deep within his throat.

…

A night slowly passed amidst such unrest, especially deep into the night, when that faint fragrance became more intense, causing Lin Zifeng to completely lose his usual composure. He clung to Monet Yun, moving from the sauna room to the bed, with heartrending cries echoing throughout the room ~

The next morning.

After a night of intense struggle, Monet Yun lay weak and limp in the man’s arms.

Lin Zifeng opened his eyes, having been awake for half an hour.

Seeing the strands of bright sunlight streaming into the wooden cabin, with a seductively alluring body nestled in his arms, a strange sadness welled up within him ~

The events of last night were vivid in his mind. He couldn’t understand why his self-control had become so fragile.

He hadn’t expected to show this side of himself.

Previously, no matter what, Lin Zifeng couldn’t possibly treat a woman this way, but last night ~

Yet he didn’t know where that faint fragrance from last night had originated ~
