"You want to leave Dragon City?!"
Beiming Yu turned around and looked at him.
"Yes. I have already offended the three major families: Ouyang, Nolan, Shangguan. If I continue to stay in Dragon City, it will only sow the seeds of bad consequences for myself. By then, it would not only make Beiming Family’s position in Dragon City awkward but also be detrintal to and you. Who knows what astonishing actions they might take if pushed?"
Lin Zifeng smiled at the corner of his mouth and analyzed to Beiming Yu.
Beiming Yu was in a daze, her exquisite features expressionless.
Then she smiled, her charming eyes landing on Lin Zifeng, and said with a smile, "Did you find the answer to your purpose of coming to Dragon City?"
"Yes."
"Can you tell ?"
"No." Lin Zifeng refused, saying, "Beiming Family Head, we are all smart people. More or less, everyone has so secrets in their hearts. Once so personal secrets are revealed, it doesn’t benefit our cooperation much. Just like you, Beiming Family Head. Aren’t I equally curious about you? Of course, the mystery of Beiming Family Head’s identity is just my personal speculation, and I don’t want to know too much. It’s not necessarily a good thing for both of us."
Saying this, Lin Zifeng deliberately observed Beiming Yu’s ever-changing expression.
Trying to see through Beiming Yu’s current state of mind through her expression.
However, Lin Zifeng’s little cunningness gained nothing from Beiming Yu. Beiming Yu had lived for so long, what storms hadn’t she seen, what people hadn’t she dealt with? Being able to dominate and occupy the position of Beiming Family Head was enough to prove her complexity.
"Hehe... "
"Such a smart person. After saying so much, in your heart, is our cooperation nothing more than a partnership?"
Beiming Yu re-evaluated Lin Zifeng with her gaze.
That statent just now enlightened Beiming Yu’s renewed understanding and impression of him.
At least in Beiming Yu’s eyes, he was very honest. No hint of disguise.
Lin Zifeng nodded, expressionless, and said, "Yes, it is purely a cooperative relationship. Because I am a rather unemotional person. Cooperation is just cooperation, with nothing else to seek."
"Boy, do you know why I want to cooperate with you?"
"No." Lin Zifeng shook his head.
"Because from the first mont I saw you, I saw sincerity in your eyes. And I could also see your ambition!"
Beiming Yu took two steps forward, significantly closing the distance between her and Lin Zifeng.
Sincere? Sincere my foot! Am I sincere?
Lin Zifeng laughed inwardly. If he were sincere, then sows would be climbing trees. If he were said to have ambition, that he could admit to.
Speaking of pretentiousness, if Lin Zifeng claims second, no one would dare to claim first...
"Alright. Since it’s just a cooperative relationship, then there’s nothing more I want to say. Now, the turmoil you’ve caused in Dragon City is too much, going back to Zhonghai is also a good thing for you. But—"
"But what?"
Seeing the gentle face of Beiming Yu reveal hesitation, Lin Zifeng imdiately sensed sothing was amiss.
With Beiming Yu’s sly nature, how could she let him go so easily without extracting every last bit of personal gain?
"Once you leave, my unambitious daughter will lose the strongest king of bodyguards..."
"..."
"Uh... okay!"
Lin Zifeng’s forehead turned black, rendered speechless.
...
At night, when Lin Zifeng returned to the living room, he found Beiming Lan still waiting in the living room for him, the whole room left with only her sitting on the sofa, dozing off...
Her sister Beiming Huang, after having a quarrel with Lin Zifeng earlier, had returned to her room early.
Beiming Yu had pulled him for a chat in the back garden for two hours before also retiring to her room.
Now, Lin Zifeng was just bidding farewell to Beiming Lan before leaving.
"Huh! Little sidekick! When did you appear behind ?"
Hearing the footsteps behind her, Beiming Lan suddenly awoke.
She rubbed her sleepy eyes, staring at Lin Zifeng nonstop.
Lin Zifeng winked at her, smiling, "Second Miss, it’s so late already, why aren’t you going to sleep?"
"I’m waiting for you." Beiming Lan said excitedly.
"Waiting for ? Waiting for what?" Lin Zifeng felt uneasy. The ti he spent with Beiming Lan wasn’t very long.
So, he didn’t hold out much hope that Beiming Lan had developed any ripples of emotion toward him.
"Of course, waiting for you to co out so I can see you. You haven’t been by my side these days, and I have so much I want to say to you."
"Hehe... I’m afraid you won’t see for a while." Lin Zifeng shrugged, with a bitter smile. Initially, he ca to the Beiming Family as a little sidekick just to find out which family forces frad his father as a traitor back in the day.
Thought this process would take a few months, but ti passed quickly, and in just two or three weeks in Dragon City, he got the information he wanted.
"What’s wrong? Little sidekick. Are you leaving?"
Suddenly! Beiming Lan jumped up from the sofa, her eyes red and tears already starting to well up.
Sigh... what a smart kid.
Lin Zifeng felt sour in his heart, smiling bitterly.
"Yes, I might temporarily leave Dragon City. But I’ll definitely co back." Lin Zifeng smiled. From start to finish, his acquaintance with Beiming Lan was purely coincidental. Fortunately, nothing ’lodramatic and ambiguous’ happened between them; otherwise, he would truly be letting his wife Nangong Bing down.
"But—but I can’t bear to let you go!"
Beiming Lan hugged his waist, her small head burrowing into his embrace, tightly clinging to him.
When being harassed by Shangguan Teng in the mall, Lin Zifeng had risked everything to rescue her. At that mont, Beiming Lan’s impression of Lin Zifeng changed significantly.
That is to say, she had begun to slowly try to accept Lin Zifeng, integrating this man into her life.
Unexpectedly, in such a short ti, he was going to leave her.
Having lost her father’s love from a young age, she was even more reluctant, her tears moistening her eyes...
"Haha... silly girl, I’m just leaving temporarily, not that we won’t ever see each other again. Besides, I’m just going back to Zhonghai, you can co to Zhonghai to find anyti." Lin Zifeng smiled. His mood, too, was influenced by Beiming Lan’s emotions.
Feeling a bit reluctant as well, though they hadn’t been together for long, this endearing and straightforward girl did give him a different feeling.
Despite money, buying him a set of global luxury brands, and even spending heaps of money for him to gamble.
A person who genuinely gives will always win the goodwill of others...
