Chapter 585: Chapter 578: No One Bites You

Under the canopy of an exceedingly ambiguous breakfast, Lin Zifeng ate with his heart in his throat.

Watching the seductive and dewy eyes of the matron flicking his way from time to time, Lin Zifeng felt a hollow inside him, an indescribable and inexpressible sensation.

It just always felt a bit nauseating...

"I’m done eating, I’m heading back to school first." After finishing the last sip of soy milk, Lin Zifeng patted his bottom, preparing to leave. Staying any longer was bound to lead to trouble.

"Aren’t you going to work today?" the woman asked, lifting her head with a flirtatious look.

"Forget it, there’s some stuff at school today, maybe some other time." Lin Zifeng chuckled.

Thinking to himself, going to work with you again, who knows what could happen, let’s wait for some other time.

"Then let me drive you."

"Oh! No need!" Lin Zifeng said with an awkward laugh. "You’re so busy already, why bother sending me off? You better hurry back to deal with company affairs, I’ll just grab a cab."

"Well, okay then, just be careful on your way." Nangong Bing nodded, her willow-shaped eyebrows creased slightly but soon smoothed out.

It wasn’t until Lin Zifeng entered the villa’s gate that he could safely pat his chest, thankful he had been quite clever just now, otherwise it was highly possible that Nangong Bing might truly fall for him.

With that thought, Lin Zifeng felt even more melancholic.

Just at that moment, the phone in his pocket rang again.

Thinking it was Black Hawk calling, it turned out to be the young girl, Li Lin’s call.

"What’s up? Missing your Brother Lin?" Lin Zifeng joked.

But the other end hesitated for a long time without a response.

"What’s wrong?" Lin Zifeng asked, a bit worried.

"Brother Lin, do you, do you have time today?" After a long pause, Li Lin finally uttered it faintly, her lips quivering slightly.

She had already felt uneasy when she called Lin Zifeng, now contacting him first for everything seemed like she was being burdensome, always troubling Brother Lin.

"What’s up? Tell me, is there any secret you can’t share with Brother Lin?" Lin Zifeng teased with a laugh, reading from her tone that she might have encountered some problem, which caused his brows to furrow slightly.

Li Lin, who had always loved to follow Lin Zifeng around since she was little, was like a little sister to him. He always treated her with brotherly affection. This pure and selfless girl, he wanted her to stay unharmed.

"Can you come to my house now? I’ll wait for you at the door," the young girl stammered, her words on the phone unclear and choppy.

"Mmhmm, wait for me." Hanging up, Lin Zifeng felt a bit strange; it seemed like the young girl was not in a great mood today. Could it be that she had encountered an unsolvable issue?

He quickly hailed a cab and soon arrived at Li Lin’s house, spotting the young girl anxiously pacing back and forth at the doorstep, clad in tight hotpants, which, coupled with those spotlessly clean canvas shoes, showcased her long, alluringly pale legs that made passersby envious.

Though she didn’t compare to the divine-level beauty of Nangong Bing, the young girl had a charm of freshness, a beauty of her own kind.

Li Lin’s house was just next to Lin Zifeng’s childhood home, with a small forest and a road cutting through it right in front of her house.

Seeing Lin Zifeng from afar, she waved at him. Although her mood wasn’t great today, she still looked delighted.

Her delicate shoulders were draped with a small pink purse as she scurried towards Lin Zifeng.

"What’s up? Running all out of breath, it’s not like someone’s biting you." Lin Zifeng teased with a cigarette in his mouth.

"Big Brother Lin, you’re always making fun of Linlin," Li Lin complained with a deep frown, then in a delicate, lingering voice she said, "Big Brother Lin, I came to ask you for a favor today, could you help me out?"

"A favor?" Lin Zifeng laughed. Did their relationship still need to bring up ’doing a favor’?

"Spit it out, what’s all this fuss about? As long as it’s something Big Brother Lin can help with, I’ll definitely do my best to help you." Lin Zifeng teased the girl’s nose, provoking her to pout repeatedly.

"Big Brother Lin, at a time like this, you’re still making fun of Linlin."

"What? Is it all Big Brother Lin’s fault now?" Lin Zifeng chuckled.

"It’s like this. When I was in high school, there was this classmate who kept pursuing me. Then he went abroad. After a few years, he’s now accomplished academically, and he’s even a national-level athlete. He keeps calling and bothering me, saying he now has a girlfriend and is about to get married. He told me that if I agree to keep dating him, he will dump his current girlfriend, so I want to ask you, Big Brother Lin, to help me."

"Is that even a thing?" Lin Zifeng exclaimed in shock.

Nowadays, what sort of people exist, resorting to such tactics for a girl?

"How am I supposed to help?"

"I want you to come with me and pretend to be my boyfriend, to make him give up. I really don’t want him to give up such a wonderful girlfriend because of me. It’s unfair to everyone, so since today is his birthday, he specially invited me to his birthday party."

Li Lin was a very gentle and skilled girl, tolerant towards everyone, never concerned with others’ losses, yet possessed the demeanor of a traditional woman—a pity she was too kind.

Always thinking about others while neglecting herself.

It was precisely this character trait that made that male classmate still harbor feelings for her after all this time, clearly indicating Li Lin wasn’t ruthless enough.

Unlike Nangong Bing, that type of breath-taking beauty, who loved straightforwardly and despised just as simply. How nice that was.

"Got it. So, you don’t want to hurt his girlfriend, and that’s why you want Big Brother Lin to pretend to be your boyfriend to make him lose hope, right?" Lin Zifeng said calmly.

"Mm-hmm." Li Lin pursed her lips, nodding her head like a bobblehead.

"Silly girl, why do you always put others first?" Lin Zifeng helplessly teased her little nose.

"Big Brother Lin, can you help me with this favor?" Li Lin’s watery eyes stared intensely at him.

"I can, but let me tell you in advance,"

"Go ahead, I’ll agree to it."

The girl shifted her lotus arms behind her back, swaying them as she pursed her lips.

"I might use some unusual methods, so don’t mind it too much," Lin Zifeng teased her once more.

After all, Lin Zifeng already considered himself quite a character, a true rarity among unusual people. The saying goes, the more oddball someone appears, the more exceptional they are, once famously said by someone—

"Okay." Li Lin cocked her head, thought for a few seconds, and quickly nodded in agreement.
