Chapter 163: Telling Tang Mi a Story
Morning of the 20th.
"What's wrong with you?"
Team Captain stared at Lin Feng, trying hard not to laugh as he asked.
Lin Feng touched his shiny bald head, "Hard to put into words! I was too sleepy during last night's haircut."
The barber girl asked me, "Bro, what hairstyle do you want?" I saw the guy next door had a nice messy hairstyle, so I said I wanted the same as his.
The girl nodded with an expression of sudden realization.
Then I fell asleep.
After waking up, it was like this.
The barber girl explained, "The guy next door works at the temple; he came especially for a bald shave, and she thought I was with him."
"Why are my eyebrows gone too?"
"That girl is a novice; she got carried away shaving my head and shaved off my eyebrows too."
"Pfft~hahaha!"
Team Captain finally couldn't hold back his laughter.
Although he knew Lin Feng was joking.
The two walked out of the Traffic Police Brigade.
"Goodbye, Captain Liu!"
Lin Feng hurriedly got into his own car, waved at Team Captain, and drove off.
On the way, Qi Yao made a phone call.
"I have two days off and want to go home for a visit; are you coming back?"
Qi Yao asked.
Team Captain requested approval from above, and the higher-ups forced Qi Yao to take two days off.
She really works hard at her job; the leaders feel bad about it.
Since Qi Yao was transferred here, the case-solving rate has improved a lot.
Lin Feng had wanted to agree, but thinking of his bald head, he could only reply, "You go back yourself! I suddenly have something to attend to these two days; please give my regards to your parents."
Qi Yao let out an "uh" sound.
"Yaoyao, I couldn't accompany you home; don't be upset!"
Lin Feng said with an apologetic expression.
"Why would I be upset? You're not busy with your own affairs, are you?" Qi Yao asked.
"Um... then go home and rest well for two days."
After Qi Yao acknowledged, she hung up the phone.
Thinking back to last night's video call, after Qi Yao returned home, her parents also knew what was going on……
Lin Feng directly returned to the 18th floor of Heavenly Abode Auspicious Scenery; he decided not to go out until his hair grew back.
He estimated it would take about half a month.
Just after returning home, he washed away the bad luck from spending the night in the holding cell and changed into clean clothes.
He had originally planned to stay alone until his hair grew back, but he didn't expect Secretary Tang to come.
"Huh~ who are you!"
When Lin Feng opened the door, Tang Mi looked at him with a surprised expression.
Lin Feng furrowed his non-existent eyebrows, "Who are you! I'm Lin Feng's friend, staying here temporarily."
Tang Mi is not an idiot.
After sizing up Lin Feng carefully, she let out a "pfft" and burst out laughing.
"Hahahaha……"
Secretary Tang laughed happily, eventually covering her belly and squatting on the ground.
"Bang~"
Lin Feng closed the door.
After a while, Tang Mi pressed the doorbell again.
Lin Feng even wanted to take off the doorbell.
He helplessly opened the door.
Tang Mi's face was flushed red, of course from laughing.
Laughing often can speed up blood flow, pleasing both body and mind.
"Come in!"
Lin Feng said indifferently.
Secretary Tang entered the room, changed her flat shoes, and put on slippers.
After Lin Feng sat down in front of the coffee table, she took out the recent "work report" from her bag and had him look at it.
Lin Feng looked it over and found no issues.
Even if there were problems, it could only be said that Secretary Tang had become clever and deserved to take that share of benefits.
"Not bad, not bad!"
Lin Feng nodded.
Then he prepared to pay Secretary Tang a salary of ten thousand yuan.
"Remember, on the 5th of next month you need to pay next quarter's rent."
Lin Feng reminded.
The place where Tang Mi lives costs forty thousand per month, and next month she has to pay a lump sum of one hundred twenty thousand in rent.
Actually, if you count it seriously, she still owes the rent for the past three months!
Tang Mi seems to have completely forgotten about this.
As soon as Lin Feng brought this up, Tang Mi reacted like a Māo ér whose fur had been blown out.
"I'm busy all day looking for tenants, signing contracts… Look, my skin's gotten tanned from the sun—shouldn't you be giving me free rent?"
Lin Feng said lightly: "Sure! Then don't live in a high-end complex—move into an apartment that costs just a few thousand."
"I won't!"
Tang Mi shook her head with a determined expression: "I've never lived in such a small place."
After saying that, she let out another cold snort and got ready to go to her room to change clothes.
"Wait!"
Lin Feng called out to stop Tang Mi.
Tang Mi stopped in her tracks, frowning as she stared at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng's eyes widened: "Just now outside the door, you actually made fun of me?"
"I didn't!"
Tang Mi shook her head.
She suddenly felt that Lin Feng looked fierce, and she couldn't help but become nervous.
"Hehe!"
Lin Feng gave a cold snort: "You were definitely making fun of me just now!"
"I… I, you look like this now—how could I not laugh at you? If you looked in the mirror, you'd laugh at yourself."
Tang Mi explained.
No sooner had her words finished than Lin Feng suddenly appeared before her.
Then he grabbed her and pulled her down to sit on the sofa.
Then Lin Feng said: "Tang Tang…"
Tang Mi got goosebumps all over: "Don't call me Tang Tang."
"Then should I call you Mi Mi?"
"Ah~ you'd better just call me Tang Tang!"
Lin Feng seized Tang Mi's hand and said: "Little Mi, let me tell you a myth story."
Tang Mi shook her head: "I don't like listening to myth stories."
Lin Feng took out a bank card from the drawer of the coffee table and placed it on the table, saying: "If you listen to my story, there's one million in the card, and thereafter there will be one million every month."
Looking at the bank card, Tang Mi's eyes lit up.
During this period she was almost driven crazy by poverty.
After clutching the bank card tightly in her hand, Tang Mi put on a serious expression and said: "Then go ahead and tell it!"
Lin Feng said slowly: "This is a story about a cultivator and a Spirit Mountain. The mountain is a bit small, but its temper is quite stubborn. So in order to subdue the mountain, the cultivator had to resort to some tough measures…"
"What measures?"
Tang Mi asked curiously.
Lin Feng gave a hehe laugh and said: "First, lure it with profit, then when the Spirit Mountain is off guard, strike directly to suppress it!"
Saying this, Lin Feng reminded: "When I tell a story, I dislike anyone interrupting the most; if you speak up and cut me off, then that one million—no, the monthly one million—will be gone!"
Tang Mi hastily gripped the card in her hand: "Go ahead and tell it! I absolutely won't make a sound to interrupt you!"
