Chapter 102: You Silly Girl

In the evening, Lin Feng was once again summoned to the bureau for tea.

The pretext was to assist the investigation.

This time it wasn't only Lin Feng; Zhao Xiaoyang also received the same honor.

"Here's how it goes..."

Lin Feng told the officer taking the statement, a former colleague, "Lately I've set my sights on the Wu Group and want to make a move against them. Of course, this is a business matter..."

Then Secretary Wang showed up, saying there was information he wanted to sell to me for ten million.

Getting Chairman Wu behind bars would be perfect for my acquisition plan! But since it involves a criminal case, I immediately asked Zhao Xiaoyang to inform you, Captain Liu..."

"Then why did you tell Wu Changxiong about this?"

The officer taking the statement asked.

Lin Feng smiled and said, "I spent ten million, felt it was a loss, wanted to get back at Chairman Wu—does that break the law?"

Lin Feng and Zhao Xiaoyang then gave a full account of what had happened.

It wasn't illegal, so they were quickly notified that they could leave.

Lin Feng let Zhao Xiaoyang leave first, and he waited at the doorway.

He wanted to wait for Qi Yao to finish work.

But by seven p. m., Qi Yao still hadn't come out.

When Qi Yao is at work, she usually turns her phone off.

But after a colleague learned Lin Feng was waiting outside and told Qi Yao, she turned her phone back on.

After waiting so long, Lin Feng tried calling Qi Yao.

It actually went through.

"Yao Yao, I'm waiting for you to get off work," Lin Feng said with a smile.

Qi Yao replied, "I'm still at work! I'm pulling an all‑night shift tonight, not going home..."

"Then shall I come pick you up in the morning?" Lin Feng asked.

"No need, I'll nap at the bureau, continue work tomorrow. There are several big cases today, will be busy for a few days," she said.

"Ah~"

Lin Feng sighed helplessly, "When you're done, give me a call."

Qi Yao generally doesn't initiate calls to people.

But after Lin Feng said that, Qi Yao immediately agreed, "Okay! I'll make you a steak."

"A kiss! Bo~"

A busy tone rang on the phone.

Qi Yao hung up first because she had speakerphone on!

A few of Qi Yao's students and some colleagues, hearing Lin Feng's "A kiss", couldn't help but laugh.

Someone immediately joked, asking Qi Yao how far the two had progressed.

After saying that, they saw Qi Yao's expressionless face and quickly shut up.

Back home, Lin Feng, bored, lit a cigarette.

Then he tore a sheet of paper and wrote numbers on it with a pen.

1 stood for Guo Yanru, 2 for Han Xiang, 3 for Zhu Li, 4 for Wen Keke, 5 for aunt Liang Shishi.

He crumpled each number into a paper ball, held them in his palm and shook them.

After scattering them on the coffee table, he randomly picked up a ball.

When he unfolded it, it was number 5.

Damn!

Lin Feng quickly set it down.

He suddenly recalled the joke he made with Liang Shishi yesterday.

He guessed that aunt probably didn't like him now.

Actually, the main point is that aunt only plays by herself, never considering Lin Feng's feelings.

"Again!"

Lin Feng picked up another ball.

When he opened it, it was Han Xiang.

Lin Feng laughed, immediately grabbed his phone and dialed Han Xiang's number.

The call connected quickly.

"Hello~ dear, it's me," Lin Feng said, his face full of expectation.

Han Xiang: "Husband... husband!"

Lin Feng smiled, "I'll come over tonight."

Han Xiang replied, "The beauty lives at school, I'm not home tonight! I'm in the studio painting carvings."

"You're on the night shift?" Lin Feng was surprised.

"Yeah! The lead character's costume for a film needs an embroidered stylish pattern..."

Han Xiang gave an explanation.

"Alright! Then stay busy, rest early, don't ruin your health just to earn a bit of money."

Lin Feng reminded.

"Okay, husband."

Han Xiang's voice was soft and gentle, with a hint of obedience.

After finishing the call, Lin Feng picked up another paper ball.

This time it was number one.

He made a phone call to Guo Yanru.

Guo Yanru said she would be working overtime tonight.

Overtime again!!

Lin Feng was surprised.

After thinking, it was still because of his own reasons.

Qi Yao was working overtime because Lin Feng's report led to the Wu Changxiong case.

Guo Yanru was working overtime because Lin Feng had assigned her too many tasks recently.

The company was busy almost around the clock, doing project copywriting, and also had to communicate with an overseas architectural design firm.

Here it was night, while there it was daytime.

"Just these few days; once we're done with the busy work, it'll be fine. And..."

Guo Yanru suddenly laughed and said, "It's useless to look for me! My aunt has arrived."

Only two paper balls remain, either Zhu Li or Wen Keke.

Lin Feng picked up one, unfolded it, and found it was number four.

This time when he called, Wen Keke's side was normal.

No overtime, and no auntie bothering.

After hanging up, Lin Feng immediately drove to Jinhu Huayuan residential area.

It was exactly eight o'clock in the evening.

Yanjingcheng was awash in red lights and green wine.

Lin Feng took Wen Keke out of the residential area and they strolled along the outside streets.

Wen Keke wore casual clothes, her hair tied in a ponytail, she held Lin Feng's arm, and her face bore a happy smile.

"Tonight, you can't get away."

Seeing Wen Keke happy, Lin Feng leaned close to her ear and whispered.

Wen Keke's beautiful face instantly flushed red.

Passing by Ice Snow Honey City, Wen Keke suddenly thought of something and bought two cream cones.

Then Lin Feng was surprised to discover that Wen Keke ate just like Zhu Li.

She really had been corrupted by Zhu Li!

"What late-night snack do you want to eat?"

After strolling for half an hour, Lin Feng asked.

Wen Keke pointed to the mall ahead and said, "If I get fat, what can I do? I want to buy a few clothes; the store closes in half an hour, hurry up!"

Wen Keke started running, and Lin Feng was practically dragged into the store.

As a result, Wen Keke entered a lingerie boutique, a rather private one.

Several minutes later, Wen Keke came out with her cheeks flushed.

What followed was surely an unforgettable night.

Lin Feng began to anticipate it.

Just as they walked out of the mall's main doors, a middle-aged woman approached from the side.

Wen Keke turned her head and glanced curiously.

Despite the scorching heat, the woman was wearing thick clothing.

Immediately afterward, she saw the woman lift her coat, pull out a gun, and point it at Lin Feng.

Wen Keke widened her eyes, without any hesitation she opened her arms and used her body to shield Lin Feng from the gun barrel.

Lin Feng shoved Wen Keke away.

Immediately after.

"Bang~"

A loud explosion sounded.

The projectile propelled by the gunpowder struck Lin Feng's shoulder.

Lin Feng endured the intense pain, lunged forward and kicked the middle-aged woman to the ground.

After the woman fell to the ground, she threw away the gun in her hand.

This was a firearm that could only be fired once.

If the shot missed, there would be no second chance.

Her name was Yang Feng, wife of Wu Changxiong and mother of Wu Guan.

After Wu Changxiong was arrested, although he didn't say anything to her, Yang Feng still figured it out.

The couple spent every day together; she had some idea of what Wu Changxiong was doing.

Later she also received a letter sent by Wang Mimi.

Of course, by this time Secretary Wang was already dead.

However, a mailed letter takes two or three days to reach the recipient.

Lin Feng had schemed against Secretary Wang; Secretary Wang had likewise schemed against Lin Feng.

His aim was to cause Lin Feng some trouble so he could smoothly leave Yanjing.

Yang Feng knew what had happened; lacking any connections or resources, she used the factory workshop to make a firearm, intending to die together with Lin Feng.

Lin Feng lifted his clothing and saw a steel bead lodged just below his collarbone.

The power was too weak; it didn't even penetrate the skin.

Soon, the patrolling police arrived, handcuffed Yang Feng, and took him away.

Across the road was a hospital; Wen Keke helped Lin Feng walk toward it.

Lin Feng turned his head to look at Wen Keke: "You silly girl! You dared to block a bullet for me!"

Tears streamed down Wen Keke's cheeks; seeing Lin Feng get shot just now had frightened her to tears.

I—I didn't think much at the time.

Wen Keke said weakly.

Lin Feng said lightly: "Next time you run into something like this, don't worry about me—just run as far as you can."

I don't want to!

Wen Keke said, pouting.
