Capítulo 1565: Chapter 1599: Lin Zifeng Loses Control

“How did I fall asleep? Where is he?” Liu Ruyan woke up to find herself lying on her own bed, her head aching terribly, and the Death God costume nowhere to be seen.

“Could it be that I just had a dream?” Liu Ruyan was now very confused, unable to clarify her thoughts.

She jumped up from the bed and found the Death God costume placed in front of the bedside table. She couldn’t remember its original position.

“Could he never have come? Was this just a good dream I had?” Whether Lin Zifeng came or not, Liu Ruyan truly couldn’t recall.

………

After leaving Liu Ruyan’s villa, Lin Zifeng suddenly received a message from Li Linlin. She asked if he was around.

Lin Zifeng replied with a smile, just one word, ‘here,’ making the little girl on the other end of the line so happy that she could hardly resist kissing her phone screen twice.

He hadn’t seen Li Lin for several months and truly missed her.

This past period, Li Lin also called him several times, but he always said he was busy, so she didn’t bother him.

Just now, as Lin Zifeng opened his phone and checked WeChat, he saw a picture of food posted by Li Lin in her Moments. He couldn’t resist his curiosity and liked it.

This instantly lifted Li Lin’s spirits, prompting her to call Lin Zifeng and ask about his current situation.

“Brother Lin, do you have time? Can you have dinner with Lin’er today? You haven’t visited Lin’er in a long while. Don’t you miss Lin’er?”

Seeing Lin Zifeng reply, Li Lin immediately made a phone call. This made Lin Zifeng feel like the girl was too idle; it was an instant response!

Honestly, since Lin Zifeng cleared up his relationship with his sister-in-law back home, he’s rarely returned.

This really made Li Lin miss him. The last time she visited Nangong Bing’s house, Lin Zifeng taught her to swim before leaving for some business, and she hadn’t seen him since she returned. Time passed quickly; a few months had gone by…

“Uh… Does it have to be today?” Lin Zifeng frowned and asked.

Nangong Bing was pregnant, and he had planned to take his wife out for a great meal today. Li Lin’s invitation was really untimely.

“Brother Lin, are you busy today? If you are, then let’s reschedule.” Li Lin said understandingly. Since Lin Zifeng was busy, she wasn’t one to cause trouble. They could just change the day. However, Lin Zifeng could hear some disappointment in her tone.

“Alright, alright, tell me. What’s so exciting that you have to invite Brother Lin for dinner today? Tell me about it. If I think it’s doable, I might find some time to come back and see you.” Lin Zifeng chuckled, not wanting to let her down too much.

“Really!” On the other end, Li Lin was exceptionally happy, saying eagerly: “Today is my mom’s birthday. Brother Lin, can you come? If you’re really too busy, you don’t have to come.”

“Ah, it’s Auntie’s birthday.” Lin Zifeng nodded. He ought to go back and see them. After all, he and Li Lin’s family had been old neighbors for over ten years, and he had been taking care of their aging house, which, although worth little, held immense value in Lin Zifeng’s heart…

After hanging up the phone, Lin Zifeng deliberately went to a large mall to personally prepare some gifts for Li Lin’s mother. Initially, Li Lin had told him not to bring any gifts, just to come and have a meeting, but Lin Zifeng’s enthusiasm couldn’t be refused. Furthermore, although Li Lin might think no gifts were necessary, her opportunistic father wasn’t easy to please. Going empty-handed would surely lead to criticism from her worldly father…
