"In that case, you guys go ahead and chat. I have so business to attend to, so I’ll leave you for now. I’ll co back later."
Lin Zifeng, grinning, casually drew two circles on a piece of paper, then put away the pen, tucked the paper into his pocket, and turned to leave.
Especially when they saw Lin Zifeng writing sothing on the paper, the two of them were dumbfounded. They were really worried that Lin Zifeng might be a reporter from so newspaper, afraid that he recognized them. If that happened, and he scribbled sothing on the paper, those two wouldn’t have it easy, even risking a double investigation.
It couldn’t get more serious.
"Hey buddy, you didn’t even have a bite."
Inspector Liu didn’t know how polite he should be, stepped forward, and cheerfully greeted Lin Zifeng.
"No need, no need. Let Su Ni accompany you for drinks first. Later, so reporters and the editor from a news agency are coming, so I need to et them. Sorry for the inconvenience." Lin Zifeng chuckled.
"How can that be? Brother Lin just got here, and it was hard enough to bump into little Su. We should at least eat and drink a little, co on, little Su pour Brother Lin a drink, let’s have one together."
Inspector Liu didn’t seem to know how polite he should be, treating Lin Zifeng like an old buddy.
"Well, since you insist, I’ll drink this cup and then I really have to go." Lin Zifeng stepped forward, took the drink Su Ni handed him, downed it in one go, then patted his butt and left.
Those two guys no longer dared to force Su Ni to drink, leaving the three of them in the private room in an awkward atmosphere.
When Lin Zifeng got back to Li Lin’s table, people were already about ready to leave the banquet.
Then Mu Yang called to say the banquet was ending on their side too.
Damn it! Ending simultaneously, Zhang Xixi’s side must be almost done too.
With no choice, Lin Zifeng quickly called Shao Huo, asking where the hell he was.
"Brother Lin, I’m stuck in traffic here, it’ll take at least another half an hour to reach the hotel, how about this? You guys start eating, I’ll be there soon, at worst, I’ll take a few drinks as an apology later."
Apologize to your sister! You really thought I invited you to eat, drink, and admire beauties? I’m calling you to help out, if you don’t co, I’m really dood.
Lin Zifeng, clutching his phone, cursed this guy a hundred tis in his mind. At this point, how could he have the mood to eat?
"Brother Lin, I’m almost there, almost there, hang in there for a bit, once I’m there, I’ll cover for you."
anwhile, Shao Huo was equally excited. Following Lin Zifeng for so long, he’s never had such a good chance to pick up girls. Rare as this opportunity is, even if he can’t get the at, drinking so soup would do. A shutdown life is not just about left and right hand accompanint, after all.
"Alright, I’ll give you ten minutes, I don’t care if it’s a traffic jam or whatever, even if you have to run, you need to get here. If you’re late, you won’t even have won’s urine to drink."
The phone call suddenly ended.
"Beep beep..."
Just after hanging up Shao Huo’s call, the phone started buzzing again.
"Lin Zifeng, we’re done eating, where are you? We’re waiting in the lobby for you."
"Beep beep beep..." The call was disconnected again...
Damn it! When is that useless person coming over?
At this point, he was finally anxious enough to jump.
"Beep beep beep..."
The phone rang again!!!
"Brother Lin, where are you? The buffet ti is limited, I’m waiting in the lobby for you... Thank you, no need to search."
As she was speaking, Zhang Xixi on the other side seed to be paying the bill, and the call was suddenly cut off...
"..."
At this mont, Lin Zifeng was like a criminal waiting for the judgnt of the Main God, his facial muscles twitched irregularly, knowing that at any mont sothing unimaginable could happen.
When he reached the lobby, Nangong Bing and Liu Ruyan were already off the elevator, and Li Linlin and her group had also co down.
Zhang Xixi was waiting for him in the lobby.
The banquet on Mu Yang’s side was about to end.
Soone was so anxious they wished they could bash their head against a wall.
Finally...
Shao Huo called to say he had arrived.
But just as he was about to go welco him, Nangong Bing ca down.
"Why are you here?" Empress Dowager raised an eyebrow and asked.
Liu Ruyan continued playing her cold and aloof persona, not acknowledging him.
"Uh... I, I ca down early to wait for you guys." Lin Zifeng scratched his head, smiling widely, his palms anxious with sweat.
"Brother Lin, Brother Lin, I’m here."
Finally, the salvation of the Bodhisattva ca.
anwhile, what made Lin Zifeng most anxious was Zhang Xixi, upon seeing Nangong Bing, imdiately went up to greet her.
"President."
Zhang Xixi appeared very excited.
"Oh, Xixi, you’re here too?"
Nangong Bing was also surprised.
"Yes, I happened to have two buffet vouchers tonight, so I ca with a friend to dine." Zhang Xixi’s face turned slightly red, appearing quite shy.
"Haha, it’s your boyfriend, right?" Nangong Bing teased.
"No, no, not a boyfriend, just an ordinary friend." Zhang Xixi’s gaze drifted, bowing her head, looking very embarrassed.
"Haha, what’s wrong with having a boyfriend, by the way, Xixi, who’s your boyfriend? How co you haven’t introduced us? I have to help you check your happiness." Nangong Bing smiled sweetly, contrasting her usual icy beauty from the office, outside of work she was very approachable.
...
"Boss, I’m here." Shao Huo had a lecherous grin, very happy to see Lin Zifeng personally co to et him.
"Good heavens, you finally arrived."
Lin Zifeng quickly stepped forward, wrapped his arm around Shao Huo’s neck, pointed at his nose and said, "Now, brother is in trouble, don’t say anything, just do as I tell you. If anyone asks what your relationship with is, just say it’s friends. No matter what others say, you mustn’t speak, just nod and shake your head. If I ask you to nod, you nod. If I ask you to shake your head, you shake your head, don’t ask or say anything, understood?"
Lin Zifeng began talking non-stop.
Even before Shao Huo could react, he was dragged around by the neck to face Zhang Xixi and Nangong Bing.
"Xixi, is your boyfriend him?"
Nangong Bing smiled slightly, pointing in the direction of Lin Zifeng.
Zhang Xixi blushed awkwardly and reluctantly nodded.
However, knowing lip-reading, Lin Zifeng quickly nudged Shao Huo to wave.
This further convinced Nangong Bing that Shao Huo indeed was Zhang Xixi’s boyfriend.
"Th-therefore, President, who are you waiting for?"
Zhang Xixi blushed intensely.
"I’m waiting for him." Nangong Bing casually pointed over.
The one acknowledging them was still Shao Huo.
The end result... they all misunderstood, Nangong Bing thought Shao Huo was Zhang Xixi’s boyfriend.
Zhang Xixi also assud Shao Huo was Nangong Bing’s friend.
This guy was cluelessly guided by Lin Zifeng, waving at anyone he saw and grinning happily.
Finally, Lin Zifeng narrowly escaped a disaster.
But at this critical mont, Li Lin and her bunch of colleagues and friends also ca down from the elevator.
Lin Zifeng hurriedly grabbed a passerby they encountered along the way!
"Brother Lin!"
Li Lin shouted to Lin Zifeng as soon as she ca out, waving her hand.
Done for, completely finished, this ti it’s really over.
Shao Huo cried bitterly.
"Brother, your lucky chance is here, there’s a cute chick over there who’s had a crush on you for ages. Now she’s waving at you, if you don’t want to miss this heaven-sent opportunity, hurry up and wave back. Perhaps your lucky goddess is presenting you with such a beautiful girl! Such an opportunity doesn’t co twice, you gotta seize it!"
Lin Zifeng pointed in the direction of Li Linlin and reacted swiftly.
That passerby was a chubby guy, and upon turning to see so many beauties standing beside Li Lin, he imdiately bead with joy.
