Urban All-Round Master

Chapter 804: Chapter 797 Alternative

2:10 A.M.

After leaving the private room, at Zhang Mengjie’s invitation, the two of them walked together on the deserted road for the first time.

Although their relationship was still somewhat unclear, Zhang Mengjie seemed to have grown curious about this mysterious man.

The scene that had just taken place in the private room had already made her heart race, giving her a feeling she had never felt before, and it was indeed beautiful.

”Are we just going to walk the streets like this?” After calming down by smoking two cigarettes in a row, Lin Zifeng broke the silence first, asking: ”It’s so late, a lonely man and woman walking on the street, don’t you find it a bit strange?”

Zhang Mengjie was momentarily taken aback, her moist eyes avoiding his gaze, not daring to look at him directly.

It wasn’t because she was shy but because she was pretending to be shy—having watched countless clichéd romance dramas, she knew how a woman could win a man’s favor, and one must know how to pretend.

”Are you worried about that girl?”

”Who?” Lin Zifeng asked, puzzled.

After thinking for a moment, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he grinned, saying, ”You mean Chuqing?”

”Is she really your sister?” Zhang Mengjie asked, somewhat surprised.

”She is a pitiful child and my sworn sister.”

”Since you recognize her as your sister, why is she still selling flowers? What kind of brother are you?” The woman gently brushed back the hair on her forehead, speaking with reason: ”You shouldn’t let her go through what she experienced tonight; you must take responsibility for her future!”

”Responsibility?”

Lin Zifeng stared at her, saying with annoyance: ”How should I take responsibility?”

”Of course, by protecting her. If you hadn’t shown up tonight, or if she had been taken by some other bad person, do you know what the consequences would be?”

Zhang Mengjie looked at him with displeasure, not avoiding Lin Zifeng’s gaze this time. Instead, she stood firm and said, ”Because you are her brother, even if only a sworn brother, you must take responsibility for her safety. Knowing she’s blind, why don’t you get her eyes treated? I don’t think you’re short on money, are you?”

Seeing her face flush, Lin Zifeng gave a bitter smile. Internally, he had to admire her warm-heartedness.

But he knew Chuqing’s stubborn personality very well. Several times, when Lin Zifeng had offered to treat her eyes, the little girl had flatly refused.

She even stated that she would rely on her abilities to cure her own eyes.

Such a stubborn girl—if he went against her wishes, Lin Zifeng might not only fail to help her but might also give her more pressure.

”Alright, since you say so, I’ll spend more time with her in the future and do everything I can to heal her eyes. Is that better?” Lin Zifeng said helplessly.

”Hehe—that’s more like it.”

Unexpectedly, there was someone who would turn things around to this extent, and she actually reached out and touched Lin Zifeng’s face!

”What’s wrong? Why do you look so bad?” Zhang Mengjie laughed, seeing Lin Zifeng’s face turning increasingly ashen, which amused her.

Thinking of the passionate kiss outside the private room just now not only made her nostalgic.

The downfall of the Star Gang tonight was yet another new trial for the Shadow Group.

Lin Zifeng had now naturally delegated all matters to Black Hawk to handle, while he enjoyed acting as if nothing was his concern.

”No big deal, but you touching me, in the middle of the night, how are you not afraid?”

Lin Zifeng looked at her with a half-smile.

”Afraid? What would I be afraid of? Are you going to eat me or something?”

Zhang Mengjie pouted slightly, her beautiful eyes filled with a unique tenderness.

”...”

Lin Zifeng had nothing to say.

The two fell into silence once again, continuing to walk aimlessly towards the end of the road.

Neither of them spoke up.

Lin Zifeng was like a wooden block, his sharp eyes glimmering in the dark night.

Zhang Mengjie looked at him more than once, and finally couldn’t help asking: ”Are we just going to keep walking like this?”

”Then I’ll take you home!” Lin Zifeng said.

”...”

Was this man really that unimaginative, coming out in the middle of the night just to walk around?

Initially, she had some expectation that he might do something more, but realized she had overthought it.

All along, Zhang Mengjie considered herself to be quite bold; even when faced with hundreds of people attacking, she didn’t think it was a scary thing.

However, at this moment, facing Lin Zifeng, her heart was pounding like a trapped deer, her thoughts tangled and complex.

Finally, she stomped her foot, steeled her heart, and internally muttered that if she died, so be it.

”How about...we get a hotel room?”

”Ah!!! Get, get a hotel room?”

Before he could react, Lin Zifeng was startled. Damn it. Could it be that the hunger had reached this level?

”Don’t get me wrong. It’s almost three in the morning now, and there’s no transportation at night. If we keep walking back, we won’t make it by dawn. How about we just get two hotel rooms and stay over?”

Lin Zifeng didn’t say anything, silently calculating in his heart. Since it was getting two rooms, that was all right.

So he nodded in agreement.

It is known that at 3 in the morning, any place might be closed, but two types of businesses are always in demand.

Pharmacies and hotels.

Not being too familiar with the area, Lin Zifeng followed Zhang Mengjie across several streets and soon found a relatively upscale hotel.

Unfortunately, when asked to provide identification for registration, they found that neither of them had brought their ID cards.
