Urban All-Round Master

Chapter 881: Chapter 902: Are you trying to play the scam game?

In order to cover up the awkwardness just now, Lin Zifeng cleverly shifted the topic.

Afraid it would affect their continued pleasant conversation.

”Brother Lin, it’s not as exaggerated as you say.” Zhang Xixi lowered her head and smiled behind her hand. Being so close to Lin Zifeng, her heart involuntarily skipped twice, her ears turning slightly hot, wishing she could find a place to hide.

It seemed to have noticed Zhang Xixi’s embarrassment.

Lin Zifeng also laughed heartily, waved his hand, and said with a smile, ”Hey, are you busy now?”

”Ah!!!”

Zhang Xixi suddenly lifted her face, opened her cherry lips wide, not knowing what he meant by this, instantly becoming flustered and at a loss.

”I mean, if you’re busy now, then I won’t disturb you.”

”Oh.” Zhang Xixi’s watery eyes stared for a moment before numbly nodding, saying, ”Then go ahead and be busy,” but a sense of inexplicable disappointment passed through her heart.

Several nights, during her dreams, she often saw Lin Zifeng heroically saving his father at the construction site that day. Even Lin Zifeng’s mannerisms were deeply etched into Zhang Xixi’s mind. Though the two often worked in the same office, and she sneakily glanced at him several times a day every workday, she felt happy inside.

But she understood that it was impossible for Lin Zifeng to have her in his heart.

”Xixi, what’s wrong? Did you hurt yourself just now?”

Seeing Zhang Xixi’s somewhat confused expression, Lin Zifeng suddenly sucked in a cold breath through clenched teeth, afraid he might have caused her pain with that bump and squeeze, making him truly hope for divine intervention.

”No, no, Brother Lin, go ahead and be busy. I still have things I haven’t finished dealing with. We’ll chat again when there’s time.” Saying so, Zhang Xixi showed a smiling face, quickly turning and heading towards the elevator. Yet a feeling of disappointment rose in her heart.

Lin Zifeng scratched his head, not understanding what this girl was thinking.

Not able to understand, he simply chose not to think about it.

All morning, he played games at the company, and after lunch, continued playing computer games that afternoon, finding himself with nothing else to pass the time.

At the end of the workday, he initially planned to hitch a ride home with the Old Buddha.

Unexpectedly, the Old Buddha left work earlier than he did today.

Having no other choice, he could only walk back home.

Just as he left through the south gate of the company.

Whoosh—

Not far away, a pure white modified Volkswagen sped over from the road.

The rapid braking startled Lin Zifeng, nearly prompting him to rush over and pull the guy out and beat him senseless.

”Brother-in-law, you’re here too!”

Lin Zifeng had just stepped back a couple of steps when a cute face poked out from inside the car, eyes covered with oversized sunglasses. From Lin Zifeng’s angle, it was hard to recognize her unless with X-ray vision—

”Brother-in-law? Who’s your brother-in-law?”

Lin Zifeng glanced around, absolutely no man was nearby.

Could it be she was calling him?

”Brother-in-law, you are my brother-in-law!” The young girl sweetly called him brother-in-law repeatedly.

”...”

Lin Zifeng ignored her, hands in pockets, head down, and walked straight ahead.

”Hey hey! Brother-in-law, I’m calling you, why aren’t you responding!”

Zhao Xiaoshi became anxious, quickly climbing out of the car.

Dang! It was her again?

Lin Zifeng turned and glanced at her. Damn, isn’t she the girl living next door to the Old Buddha?

Zhao Xuemo’s cousin; last time, to resolve the awkward situation, Lin Zifeng agreed to let Zhao Xuemo’s little cousin mistakenly think he was her brother-in-law. Later they cleared things up between them.

This girl even admitted she knew Lin Zifeng’s identity.

”Tap tap tap—”

Zhao Xiaoshi stepped out of the car with her high heels, showing off her long white legs.

Her graceful, slim figure quickly made those guys waiting for the bus around drool all over.

”Brother-in-law!” Zhao Xiaoshi came closer, affectionately calling out sweetly.

”Holy crap!”

Lin Zifeng shuddered at her closeness.

Quickly turning back, he revealed a fierce face, speaking coldly, ”Little sister, you’ve got the wrong person; I’m not your brother-in-law. Keep it up, and I’ll sell you off to Africa!”

Surprisingly, Zhao Xiaoshi wasn’t afraid but mimicked Lin Zifeng’s fierce demeanor, puffing up her chest and coolly saying, ”Even if I’m sold off to Africa, you’re still my brother-in-law! I’m not afraid anyway.”

”...”

Lin Zifeng was speechless, gritting his teeth in anger, almost wanting to slap her.

With hands on hips, he said with full roguishness, ”I told you before, that night was a misunderstanding. I’m not your brother-in-law. I’m just colleagues with your cousin. Haven’t you already been told? Are you trying to stage a scam?”

This thought suddenly made Lin Zifeng suspect it was possible; perhaps her cousin’s fiancé returned? Or maybe Zhao Xuemo had an affair, resulting in pregnancy?

Then the fiancé found out and rejected her, and they decided to pass it on and make the cheap, free, buy-one-get-one-free brother-in-law take over?

Then he would become an undeserving father?

Just— this kind of thing is against natural justice!

Lin Zifeng, even with the thickest skin, couldn’t allow such a thing, resolutely refusing to acknowledge he was her brother-in-law!

After a series of mental overthinking, Lin Zifeng decided to completely sever ties with the two of them.

”Brother-in-law~~”

Zhao Xiaoshi pouted, once again sweetly cooing.

”Stop right there! Once again, I’m not your brother-in-law!”

Lin Zifeng put on a serious face filled with a fierce look, which turned into a cute expression in Zhao Xiaoshi’s eyes instead.

Dang!

Are today’s kids really this overly sweet and creamy?

”Brother-in-law— come home with me, will you?” Saying this, Zhao Xiaoshi suddenly clung onto him, lifting one foot behind, looking as intimate as can be.

”Uh—well, really, I’m not your brother-in-law; can we sit down and talk properly?” Lin Zifeng was almost in tears, afraid that if Mu Yang, Zhang Xixi, or the others saw this, he really wouldn’t know how to explain.

”Brother-in-law, just come home with me, please?”

”No!” Lin Zifeng once more refused, with a determined and defiant face.

”Alright! You said it yourself!”

Zhao Xiaoshi was pumped up too, lifting her head, looking at him coldly with a sneer.

Suddenly, she grabbed Lin Zifeng’s hand and pressed it onto her chest!

Holy—

”You—you, what are you doing!”

Lin Zifeng was stunned.

She—she actually pressed Lin Zifeng’s hand onto her chest!

”If you don’t agree with me, hah, I’ll shout later that you’re molesting me and claiming you’re fickle-hearted. Then when your colleagues see it, I wonder how you’ll explain it. Hah!”

Zhang Xiaoshi smugly lifted her head, humming happily.

Not to mention, her chest indeed—
