The King of Urban Mercenaries
Chapter 314 - 314 314 Moved by Family

314: Chapter 314: Moved by Family 314: Chapter 314: Moved by Family “Lin Fei, no, you can’t.”

On the flight from Ningzhou to Zhonghai City, in the first-class cabin where Lin Fei and Ling Weiwei were situated, Ling Weiwei found herself suddenly embraced by Lin Fei.

Her cheeks flushed red, heart brimming with embarrassment, yet she firmly held on to the last shred of her inner line, daring not let Lin Fei truly do anything to her.

Although inexperienced in love, that didn’t mean she was oblivious.

It was clear to Ling Weiwei what Lin Fei intended to do to her, Minister Ling could certainly guess.

While their feelings for each other had grown deeper, Minister Ling wasn’t exactly opposed to the idea of something happening between her and Lin Fei.

But the setting had to be right.

If they were at home, or alone in a hotel suite, Minister Ling would have likely given in to Lin Fei.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have assertively dragged Lin Fei with her on a business trip to Ningzhou.

Having known Lin Fei for more than a day or two, she was aware of his temperament.

Yet, bringing him along on the business trip to Ningzhou almost certainly signaled that Minister Ling was prepared to offer herself to Lin Fei.

But on the plane, even in a first-class cabin that held only the two of them, Minister Ling obviously couldn’t accept it.

It wasn’t about willingness or unwillingness, it was more about a woman’s modesty, considering Minister Ling was still a maiden after all.

If it were Shen Peini, that tempting creature, she might have given in easily to a few sweet nothings from Lin Fei, impulsively throwing caution to the wind to join him in a bout of passion.

But Minister Ling clearly wasn’t that liberal yet.

“You’ve led me on, at least give me some compensation.

Otherwise, wouldn’t I be at a loss for accompanying you on this business trip?”

Ling Weiwei felt shy and resisted, and Lin Fei was not unaware of this.

But if he was to let her go easily because of Ling Weiwei’s momentary resistance, wouldn’t he, Lin Fei, be selling himself short?

It’s one thing to joke around at the office.

But after all, he, Lin Fei, had spent quite a significant amount of time accompanying the beautiful Minister Ling in Ningzhou.

Granted, his time wasn’t as precious as that of his wife, President Mu Shanshan.

However, having saved the beautiful Minister Ling from a crisis, it seemed she had rather put him in a difficult position.

In both fairness and reason, Lin Fei seeking some compensation from Ling Weiwei seemed absolutely appropriate.

“After we land, I’ll, I’ll take you out for a meal.”

Being held in Lin Fei’s arms and asked for compensation, the blushing Ling Weiwei, knowing she was at fault, managed to muster up a dinner invitation after some effort.

“Do you think I would waste my time accompanying you on a business trip just for a meal?!”

Ling Weiwei’s dinner invitation had truly irritated Lin Fei.

Although he was under financial constraint by his President wife Mu Shanshan, he wasn’t so poor that he couldn’t afford a meal.

If nothing else, he could always mooch off Shen Peini, that alluring creature.

Thinking a meal would be enough to appease him, Lin Fei, was beyond perfunctory.

If it were any other woman, less close to him, Lin Fei would have probably slapped her by now.

A meal, that’s practically treating him like a beggar!

“You’ve misunderstood, it’s not that I want to treat you to a meal.”

“What, you expect me to treat you?”

“I want to invite you to my place, and I’ll cook for you myself!”

“Should have said so earlier.

Given our relationship, since you’re taking care of food, you might as well take care of everything else too.”

Understanding that Ling Weiwei intended to personally cook for him, Lin Fei was pleasantly reassured.

Of course, a mere meal was still far from satisfying his appetite.

After all, when Lin Fei was satiated, he had to consider the feelings of his “little brother,” didn’t he?

“Are you actually going to eat or are you planning to devour me?”

“Is there a difference?”

Watching Lin Fei’s face, so nonchalant and clueless, Ling Weiwei couldn’t help but let out a sigh of sorrow.

This wasn’t the first time she had proposed to cook for Lin Fei.

Over a month ago, during a board meeting of Mu Group, she had deliberately intended to bring Lin Fei home and personally cook for him.

It stemmed from a bet between the two of them.

Although it was just a bet, due to her feelings for Lin Fei, Minister Ling obviously took it quite seriously.

If you want to capture a man’s heart, you must first capture his stomach.

Because of this rule, over the past month Minister Ling had been diligently practicing her cooking at home, so that, should Lin Fei whimsically remember their bet one day, she would be ready to serve up a good meal and seize Lin Fei’s stomach in one fell swoop.

However, for over a month it seemed like Lin Fei had forgotten their bet, having no intention of visiting her home to taste her cooking.

Finding it hard, Minister Ling took the initiative to offer cooking for Lin Fei, but it was clear that what Lin Fei cared about wasn’t the meal she cooked, but her as a person.

It was because she suddenly realized this that Minister Ling’s heart was filled with poignancy.

Because she also realized that, even if she truly won over Lin Fei’s stomach, with Lin Fei’s disposition, she was afraid it would still be hard to capture his heart.

…

In Zhonghai, a high-end apartment—Fangcao Garden.

After getting off the plane, Lin Fei and Ling Weiwei didn’t linger at the airport, heading straight here instead.

“Weiwei, not to criticize, but living in such a big house all by yourself is really wasteful.

To help you cut down on waste and foster thriftiness, I think it’s necessary for you to give me a set of keys to your place.”

After entering Ling Weiwei’s home and looking around, Lin Fei, appearing quite satisfied, seriously began to request the keys from Ling Weiwei.

“Why should I give you the keys to my home?!”

“Because, in the future, this place will become my home too.”

At those words, a surge of emotion flooded through Ling Weiwei’s entire body, finally converging in her heart, spawning a surge of indescribable tenderness.

This wasn’t the first time Lin Fei had spoken words of affection to her, but without a doubt this was the most moving.

A person, no matter how big or luxurious their living space, ultimately finds it hard to find that sense of home.

Undoubtedly, Ling Weiwei was a successful young woman, but no matter how successful, as an orphan, she simply couldn’t build a complete family from scratch.

For Ling Weiwei, who had been alone in Zhonghai since leaving the orphanage, affection was immensely precious.

This was also why she could let go of her feminine modesty and rashly pull Lin Fei along to Ningzhou, without any reservation.

Because she needed affection, she needed to be cherished, and what she needed most was the companionship of Lin Fei.

Home, an ordinary word, yet it was one that Ling Weiwei found daunting and taboo.

Because she had no home!

And now, Lin Fei had personally told her that he wanted to make her place his home.

This undoubtedly touched the softest part of her heart.

To put it simply, Minister Ling had thoroughly fallen for Lin Fei, with a feeling that was devoid of any lust, the most primitive and pure emotion emerging…
