Urban All-Round Master

Chapter 1412: Chapter 1446: Captain Su Ni, Police Beauty (Monthly Ticket)

After leaving the meeting room, Lin Zifeng hurried to the Nantian Gang headquarters to check on Mu Yang’s situation.

As expected, at this moment, Mu Yang was in low spirits, looking utterly dejected.

When she saw Lin Zifeng, she merely glanced up at him without saying a word.

”Everyone dies eventually, but I won’t let your grandfather die in vain.”

In the room, Mu Yang sat by the edge of the bed, with dishes that had gone cold on the small wooden table in front of her. Perhaps Mu Liancheng’s death had taken away her appetite.

”Don’t be sad. There’s still a long way to go. Do you plan on living like this forever? If your grandfather were watching over you from above, imagine how heartbroken he would be seeing you like this.”

Lin Zifeng continued to console her.

But Mu Yang’s beautiful face still showed no color.

”It seems you haven’t understood what I mean. How about I tell you a story?”

Lin Zifeng shrugged and smiled.

”What story?”

At this moment, Mu Yang turned her head to look at him, her eyes flickering, unsure of what he meant.

”Hehe...” There’s hope! Lin Zifeng laughed bitterly, coughed twice, and said, ”Have you heard that when people die, they become stars in the sky?”

”No.”

”...”

Damn! Did she have to answer so bluntly? Lin Zifeng was speechless.

Can we still have a pleasant conversation?

”I know you’re trying to comfort me. I also know that the dead cannot come back to life; you don’t have to go to the trouble of fooling me.” As she spoke, Mu Yang slowly lowered her head, lightly sniffling twice, clearly having just wiped away the tears from her cheek.

”Don’t worry. Though I’m sad, I will deal with it rationally. Let me stay here a little longer these days to spend time with my father. All these years, my father has been devoted to reviving the Mu Family. Now it’s gone, and maybe for him, it’s a kind of relief. For me, I’ve gained a father, and perhaps it really reflects what the books say: gains and losses are balanced.”

”I guess there’s nothing more for me to say to you. In fact, you see things more clearly than I do.” Lin Zifeng shook his head and said, ”Alright then, I know your grandfather’s death was a heavy blow to you. For now, stay here with the Nantian Gang to rest well. Maybe what you need is time.”

”Thank you, Zifeng.”

”Thank me for what?” Lin Zifeng looked at her in surprise, that perfect face showing deep sadness. At that moment, Lin Zifeng’s heart ached again.

He was someone who was extremely protective, not wanting those around him to be unhappy.

”If it weren’t for you, I might be dead by now. Without you, our Mu Family might not have even one bloodline left.”

”You’re overthinking it; things aren’t as you imagine. Okay, enough talking. I’ll go see your father. You have a good rest.” Lin Zifeng patted his leg and stood up.

With a smile on his face, at the moment of turning around, his expression turned as cold as ice.

...

When he appeared in another room, Mu Cangtian’s mood was much better than his daughter’s.

”You’re here.” Mu Cangtian had already heard the footsteps.

”You seem to be doing a lot better than I imagined.” In the room, Lin Zifeng walked in step by step.
