Urban All-Round Master

Chapter 1404: Chapter 1438: That’s Not Broad-Mindedness, It’s Just Thick-Skinned

”By the way, did you come back because you got my message?”

Beiming Lan acted just like a considerate girlfriend, asking all sorts of questions, but she forgot who truly called Lin Zifeng back - Beiming Yu!

”Uh, yes.” Lin Zifeng nodded, glancing at Beiming Yu’s increasingly angry gaze, feeling even more anxious inside.

”By the way, I wonder what Brother Lin has been up to these past few days? It’s been a few days since I’ve seen you. You look quite refreshed; have you not been comfortable staying at our Beiming Family?”

At this point, Beiming Yu interrupted the ’catching up’ between Beiming Lan and Lin Zifeng with some baseless words.

”Uh... not at all. I’m very comfortable here.” Lin Zifeng noticed Beiming Yu’s displeasure. The closer he got to Beiming Lan, the more it led Beiming Yu to have some strange thoughts.

Having this guy as a close attendant, was it right or wrong?

”So where have you been the past couple of days? Xiaolan was looking for you, and you were nowhere to be seen at Qishi Mansion.”

Beiming Yu asked with a fake smile. Clearly, she didn’t want Beiming Lan to know about the matter at the Xiao Family today. A mother truly loves her daughter.

Thinking to herself: Kid, I sincerely regret discussing any cooperation with you. Now look at this. Not only did I help you offend other families, but I also let my foolish daughter develop a fondness for you. My God, my God! What did I do wrong in my past life to have you punish me like this?

”I—I went out on business.”

Damn it! All it was was getting a little too close to your daughter, and yet you go around in circles making it difficult for me?

”On business? What kind of important business could be more important than my daughter’s life? Don’t forget, Beiming Yu took you in and allowed you to be my daughter’s attendant to protect her life and safety. It’s not to pay for you to enjoy life!”

”Hey! Beiming Yu, we agreed not to attack each other’s character, but how did we end up here?” Beiming Lan quickly stepped in to interrupt their conversation, already sensing the tension in the air.

”None of your business, stay out of it.” Beiming Yu said.

”You...”

Poor Beiming Lan was left speechless with anger.

”Come with me.” Beiming Yu twisted her elegant waist and walked up to Lin Zifeng.

The captivating scent was strong, and even from several meters away, Lin Zifeng could catch a hint of jasmine fragrance on her... While he couldn’t guess the brand, it was at least one of Chanel’s latest releases.

”Okay.” Lin Zifeng didn’t hesitate.

Beiming Yu was definitely going to talk to him about what happened today at the Xiao Family.

Anyway, he also needed to discuss his plans to return to Zhonghai with Beiming Yu.

”Hey... so just like that, I’m not needed here?”

Watching the little attendant follow her mom to the back garden, Beiming Lan stood there foolishly, not moving.

”Hehehe.”

”Hey! Beiming Huang, what are you laughing at?”

”Nothing, it’s just that there was a funny part in the book, and I couldn’t help but laugh.” Beiming Huang watched her silly little sister being ignored and laughed with abandon.

”Hmph! I know you’re laughing at me, but it doesn’t matter. After all, I, Beiming Lan, have a broad heart, it doesn’t bother me.”

”You’re just thick-skinned!”

Beiming Huang jabbed.

”You... even you’re bullying me?!” Beiming Lan fumed, hands on her hips, looking both haughty and adorable.

”How could I be so daring to make fun of the second lady of the Beiming Family.”

”Hmph... I knew you were making fun of me, but it doesn’t matter. Unlike you, who only knows how to bury your head in books every day. I swear I won’t ever bring you in on anything fun or exciting in the future.” Having said that, Beiming Lan turned and stormed off in a huff.

Leaving Beiming Huang to laugh even more openly and boldly...

...

”Do you think the moon is round tonight?”

In the back garden of the villa, Beiming Yu stood with her hands behind her back, amidst the flowers and plants, gazing up at the bright moonlight.

”It’s round.” Lin Zifeng answered without hesitation.

”Sigh...” Beiming Yu let out a deep sigh, turning her head to glance at him: ”The moon waxes and wanes, as do human fortunes. Do you know that you’ve caused a stir in Dragon City this time?”

”I do.” Lin Zifeng nodded.

”So what are you planning to do now?”

”Leave Dragon City.” Lin Zifeng said without hesitation.
