Chapter 222: Can't Wash It Off Even If You Jump Into the Yellow River

~7 min read 1,313 words

Yet he hadn't expected there to be something even more headache-inducing!

Just as Lin Wei had left for less than half a minute, Lin Jingying came running in excitedly, and with a strange look in her eyes, she said to Lin Feng, "Why did Xiao Wei run out of your room early this morning with her clothes in such disarray? Did you two sleep together last night?"

"Why is her face so red, and why was she calling out so loudly? Junior Brother, what did you do to her? Junior Brother, how could you be so shameless? You kept insisting before that she was your sister, but now you've actually... tsk tsk tsk, Junior Brother, don't you even understand the principle that a rabbit doesn't eat the grass around its own burrow?"

Lin Feng was incredibly annoyed, and clenching his fists, he said, "Senior Sister, if you're asking for a beating, just say so; I'll be sure to satisfy you!"

During breakfast, both Lin Feng and Lin Wei avoided each other's gaze, fearing they might lock eyes.

Especially Lin Wei; her face was bright red, and she was so embarrassed she could barely lift her head.

Moreover, she usually chattered non-stop during breakfast, like a parrot.

But now, she didn't say a single word from start to finish, as if she were too ashamed to speak.

Lin Jingying suddenly said, "Junior Brother, accompany me to the Central Grand Theater in Jinling later."

"What are you going there for?" Lin Feng asked hurriedly.

Lin Jingying said, "In a few days, I'll be holding a concert in Jinling, and the venue for the concert is the Central Grand Theater in the center of Jinling City. Of course, I have to go there now to rehearse the program and prepare in advance."

"My agent, makeup artist, and performance team also arrived in Jinling last night and are staying at the hotel with my bodyguards; they will all be going to the theater today."

Lin Feng frowned and said, "Senior Sister, do you really think of yourself as a star?"

"What do you mean 'think of myself as a star'? I am a star, aren't I!" Lin Jingying was so angry she slapped the table.

Lin Feng said, "What I mean is, aren't you in danger right now? How do you still have the mood to hold some concert?"

"I came to Jinling to find you under the guise of holding a concert in the first place; how can I not do something that was already decided? Besides, all the media outlets have already received the news that I'm holding a concert, and the Central Grand Theater side is already prepared. Do you know how much of an impact it would have if I went back on my word now?"

Without waiting for Lin Feng to say anything more, Lin Jingying commanded aggressively, "Stop talking nonsense. You must come with me to the Central Grand Theater later and protect me at close range!"

Lin Feng, however, was somewhat hesitant.

Not to mention Li Chengyuan, the richest man in Binhai who coveted Lin Jingying's beauty, one of the Eight Great Protectors of the Hidden Demon Sect—Demon Tiger—was currently lurking in the shadows!

If he left with Lin Jingying, only Lin Wei would be left at home. If Lin Wei were ambushed by Demon Tiger, things would be serious!

Lin Wei also thought of this point, so she said, "I'll just go with you two. I happen to want to see how Sister Lin rehearses and how she prepares for the concert."

Since Lin Wei had spoken up, Lin Feng nodded and said, "Alright, it's settled then. Xiao Wei, don't run around when you get to the theater; stay close to me. If any accidents happen, I will protect you."

"I know, Brother."

Lin Wei said shyly, and she even snuck a few glances at Lin Feng.

Lin Jingying said with dissatisfaction, "Shouldn't you be protecting me first?"

"My sister comes first, you come second. Besides, don't you have so many bodyguards?" Lin Feng said with a straight face.

And so, Lin Jingying started slapping the table again.

At 7:30, Lin Feng and Lin Wei got into Lin Jingying's Porsche and headed toward the Central Grand Theater in the center of Jinling City.

Before 8:00, the three of them had already arrived.

Lin Jingying soon became busy, singing and dancing on stage with the performance team to rehearse the program, stopping from time to time to redesign the choreography.

Lin Feng brought over two chairs and sat on the side of the stage with Lin Wei, watching quietly.

Lin Wei watched with great interest, her face flushed; one could tell she liked it very much, but Lin Feng had little interest in it.

"No wonder Sister Lin can be a big star; her foundation is so good. You can tell at a glance that she's a professional," Lin Wei said excitedly.

Lin Feng found it quite amusing.

Lin Jingying was a Martial Artist, and the physique and body control of a Martial Artist far exceeded that of an ordinary person.

Therefore, singing and dancing posed no difficulty for a Martial Artist like Lin Jingying; she could surpass the vast majority of artists just by learning a few of the techniques involved.

Most importantly, Lin Jingying was also proficient in Charm Technique.

With that, it would be hard for her not to be popular!

Even though Lin Jingying had entered a Weakness Period due to her cultivation method and could not exert her Martial Dao strength, let alone use any Martial Skills, her Charm Technique was also unusable; yet, every frown, every smile, every gesture, and every step she took still possessed immense lethality.

Lin Feng and Lin Wei were there enjoying Lin Jingying's rehearsal, while on the other side, a dozen or so bodyguards were all staring at Lin Feng.

They all looked displeased, as if they wished Lin Feng would just get lost.

"Brother Lei, we are clearly the ones who are Miss Lin's bodyguards, yet Miss doesn't stay in the hotel with us and instead stays in that man's villa. Do you think this is appropriate!"

"Yeah, Brother Lei, does Miss not trust us anymore?"

"Brother Lei, who exactly is that guy? You said he's Miss's Junior Brother; is that true?"

"Is he also a Martial Artist? What is his strength?"

"Brother Lei, say something! If things go on like this, will we have any sense of presence left? What if Miss feels she doesn't need us anymore and fires us all!"

"Brother Lei, you're our leader; you can't just do nothing!"

These bodyguards spoke one after another, but the bodyguard Captain, Chen Lei, had a terrible expression.

"Stop talking. That man is very powerful; I am no match for him," Chen Lei said.

"How is that possible?"

"Brother Lei, you're the strongest among us; you can't beat that guy either?"

"I don't believe it; Brother Lei, you must not have performed at your best!"

"Anyway, I can't stand it anymore!"

Seeing these bodyguards arguing more and more fiercely, Chen Lei's heart began to waver as well.

Chen Lei did not know Lin Feng's exact strength. Although he had been defeated by Lin Feng that night, he was still somewhat unconvinced, feeling that he had just been careless.

If he hadn't been careless, he might not have lost to Lin Feng.

Thinking of this, Chen Lei finally said, "Alright, I'll go talk to Lin Feng. You all don't get agitated yet."

Afterward, Chen Lei strode over to Lin Feng.

Lin Feng sat in his chair, looked up at Chen Lei, and said, "Do you have something to find me for?"

Chen Lei said, "Miss Lin isn't staying at the hotel with us, but is instead staying at your villa. We are very worried about her personal safety."
