Urban All-Round Master

Chapter 1405: Chapter 1439: Bodyguard of the Strongest King Level

”Are you leaving Dragon City?!”

Beiming Yu turned around and looked at him.

”Yes. I’ve already offended the three major families: Ouyang, Nolan, and Shangguan. If I stay in Dragon City any longer, it will only lead to disaster. It’ll not only intensify the awkward position of the Beiming Family in Dragon City but also be disadvantageous to both you and me. Who knows what shocking actions they might take when pushed to the edge.”

Lin Zifeng had a slight smile at the corner of his mouth as he analyzed to Beiming Yu.

Beiming Yu was in a daze, her delicate features expressionless.

Soon she smiled, her enchanting eyes falling on Lin Zifeng, and said with a laugh, ”Did you find the answer to your purpose in coming to Dragon City?”

”Yes.”

”Could you tell me about it?”

”No,” Lin Zifeng refused, saying, ”Family Head Beiming, we’re all smart people, and everyone harbors some secrets. Once some personal secrets are exposed, it won’t benefit our cooperation. Just like you, Family Head Beiming. I’m quite curious about you, too. Of course, the mystery of your identity is just my personal speculation, and I don’t want to know too much, as it wouldn’t be beneficial for either of us.”

By the end, Lin Zifeng was deliberately observing Beiming Yu’s fickle expression.

Trying to see through Beiming Yu’s state of mind at the moment.

However, Lin Zifeng’s little cleverness wasn’t an advantage in Beiming Yu’s eyes. Having lived for so long, she’s seen all kinds of storms and met all kinds of people. Being able to dominate and hold the position of Family Head of Beiming is evidence enough of this woman’s complexity.

”Hehehe...”

”What a clever person. So, in your heart, our cooperation is only that of collaboration?”

Beiming Yu re-evaluated Lin Zifeng with her eyes.

That remark made Beiming Yu rethink her understanding and view of him.

At least in Beiming Yu’s eyes, he was very honest. Without any disguise.

Lin Zifeng nodded, expressionless, ”Yes, it’s merely a cooperative relationship. Because I’m a person who’s rather indifferent. Cooperation is just that, nothing more.”

”Boy, do you know why I collaborate with you?”

”No,” Lin Zifeng shook his head.

”Because from the first time I saw you, I saw sincerity in your eyes. And I could tell your ambition!”

Beiming Yu took two steps closer to Lin Zifeng, narrowing the distance between them.

Sincere? Sincere, my ass! Me, sincere?

Lin Zifeng chuckled to himself if he were sincere, pigs would fly. However, he could indeed admit to having ambition.

When it comes to showing off, Lin Zifeng could claim second place, with no one daring to claim first...

”Alright, since it’s just a cooperative relationship, there’s nothing more to say. Now that you’ve caused quite a stir in Dragon City, returning to Zhonghai might be a good thing for you. But...”

”But what?”

Seeing Beiming Yu’s gentle face showing conflict, Lin Zifeng immediately sensed something was off.

With Beiming Yu’s cunning nature, how could she let him go without extracting every benefit?

”Once you leave, my disappointing daughter will lack the strongest king for a bodyguard...”

”...”

”Uh... alright!”

Lin Zifeng’s forehead darkened, leaving him speechless.

...

In the evening, when Lin Zifeng returned to the living room, he found Beiming Lan still there waiting for him, the entire living room empty except for her, dozing off on the sofa...

Her sister Beiming Huang, who had some quarrels with Lin Zifeng earlier, had already gone back to her room.

Beiming Yu had spent two hours chatting with him in the back garden and now returned to her room to rest.

Lin Zifeng was now saying goodbye to Beiming Lan before his departure.

”Eh! Little follower! When did you appear behind me?”

Hearing footsteps behind her, Beiming Lan suddenly woke up.

She rubbed her sleepy eyes and stared at Lin Zifeng relentlessly.

Lin Zifeng blinked at her, smiling, ”Second Miss, it’s so late, why haven’t you gone to sleep yet?”

”I was waiting for you,” Beiming Lan said excitedly.

”Waiting, waiting for me? What for?” Lin Zifeng was startled. The time he spent with Beiming Lan wasn’t long.

Therefore, he didn’t hold any hopes that Beiming Lan would have much emotion towards him.

”Of course, I was waiting for you to come out, to see you. I have so much to say to you since you haven’t been around.”

”Hehe... I fear it’ll be some time before we see each other again.” Lin Zifeng shrugged, wearing a bitter smile. Originally, he came to the Beiming Family as a little follower, merely to find out which family forces had corrupted his father’s reputation as a traitor years ago.

He thought this process would take months, not expecting that in just two to three weeks in Dragon City, he had already obtained the information he wanted.

”What’s wrong? Little follower. Are you leaving?”

Suddenly! Beiming Lan stood up from the sofa, her eyes red, and tears began to well up.

Ah...such a smart child.

Lin Zifeng felt sour inside, with a continued bitter smile.

”Yes, I might temporarily leave Dragon City. But I’ll definitely be back.” Lin Zifeng smiled. From the beginning to the end, his acquaintance with Beiming Lan was entirely coincidental. Fortunately, nothing ’dramatically ambiguous’ happened between them, or else it would’ve been unfair to his wife Nangong Bing.

”Bu-but I can’t bear to part with you!”

Beiming Lan hugged his waist tightly, nestling her small head into his arms.

When Shangguan Teng harassed her at the mall, Lin Zifeng risked everything to rescue her. At that moment, Beiming Lan’s impression of Lin Zifeng changed significantly.

In other words, she had started to slowly accept Lin Zifeng, integrating this man into her life.

But she didn’t expect him to leave her so soon.

Having lost her father’s love from a young age, she felt even more reluctant, tears moistening her eyes...

”Haha... silly girl, I’m just leaving temporarily. It’s not like we won’t see each other again. Besides, I’m only going back to Zhonghai. You can come to Zhonghai to find me anytime you want.” Lin Zifeng laughed, his mood lifted by Beiming Lan’s emotions.

Feeling somewhat reluctant himself, though their time together was short, this cute, innocent, straightforward girl gave him a unique feeling.

Spending recklessly, she bought him a wardrobe filled with global luxury brands and gave him money to gamble.

Those who genuinely give their heart will always win others’ affection...
