Chapter 1023: Chapter 1028: Su Zi’s Gaze
Lin Feng pretended nothing was wrong as he walked up to the door of private room 312, glancing curiously at the room number as he went...
"Sir, if you’ve got nothing to do here, please don’t loiter around..." Among the four men in black, one clearly more ferocious-looking guy seemed to be the leader. He stared coldly at Lin Feng and said in a deep voice, "The person you’re looking for isn’t here!"
Hearing what that leader in black said, Lin Feng, who had been putting on an act, suddenly raised his head, grinned at him, and asked with a smile, "How do you know the person I’m looking for isn’t here?"
"Yo, you even dare talk back... tsk tsk!" The man in black sneered and shook his head. After sizing Lin Feng up and down again, he shook his head and said, "Kid, seeing as you’re still young, I’ll give you a chance. Leave here right now, or you’re in trouble. Big trouble."
Lin Feng shook his head and said to that man in black with a smile, "Sorry, I’m not leaving... How about you guys leave, and I’ll stay?"
"I get it now, so you really did come here to stir up trouble..." The leader in black sneered and shook his head, then pointed at a man in black beside him and said flatly, "Jin Biao, go teach him a lesson. I’ll give you ten seconds. If you can’t take him down, you can honestly do five hundred push-ups before you sleep tonight..."
The one called Jin Biao, whom the leader pointed at, stepped forward. A battle-hardened military air surged from his whole body. He looked at Lin Feng with an arrogant expression, saying nothing, merely reaching out his right hand and crooking his finger at Lin Feng, signaling him to make a move.
Lin Feng was full of fire; the depression in his heart had been building up for more than half a month. Now, knowing perfectly well that Su Zi was right behind this door, how could he hold back!
With the stride of a dragon and the pace of a tiger, Lin Feng chose to strike first. He launched a straightforward attack down the middle, his fist howling toward Jin Biao’s face. The Inner Strength flaring outward whooshed, as if it compressed the air several meters in front of him all at once.
"So strong!" Jin Biao’s eyes widened. Just from the force of that one move, he knew he was absolutely no match for Lin Feng. But with his boss right behind him, how would Jin Biao dare retreat... He gritted his teeth and exploded with a punch of his own, meeting Lin Feng’s fist head-on!
Bang!
An extremely harsh, muffled sound rang out. Jin Biao’s whole body was blasted into the air and sent flying backwards, crashing straight into the door of the private room, which burst open with a boom...
"Lin Feng!"
Inside the luxuriously decorated private room, under the gorgeous lights, a beautiful slender figure was looking at Lin Feng with a mix of surprise, panic, resentment, and worry in her eyes...
She was Su Zi!
After more than a month apart, Lin Feng noticed that Su Zi’s face had grown a bit thinner, and the smile on her face didn’t seem as natural as before. Her clothes, however, had become much more luxurious. That set of evening wear she had on now was downright magnificent; with that embroidery and fabric, it probably couldn’t have been bought for less than a million...
But why did Su Zi look so unhappy...
Lin Feng had never seen such a complicated expression on Su Zi’s forever pure and innocent face. He’d always thought Su Zi’s world should be simple, just like her carefree nature—only ever thinking up the quirkiest tricks to tease people, never deliberately trying to understand the weight of this world...
But now, Su Zi’s gaze was so heavy it was as if she were bearing the weight of the whole world!
Good thing he’d made it in time!
"Su Zi... I finally get to see you... Come on, babe, give me a hug!" Lin Feng smiled easily and spread his arms to Su Zi, as if inviting her, and also as if commanding her...
Seeing Lin Feng’s roguish appearance, Su Zi couldn’t help but subconsciously smile, and then two crystal-clear tears slid from her eyes.
"Who’s so bold they dare make a move and hurt people here!" Before Su Zi could speak, a woman in her forties suddenly stepped in front of her, blocking her. Her pair of very pretty eyes stared fixedly at Lin Feng as she questioned him in a deep voice, "Kid, who are you?! What are you doing here?"
There was one more person in the private room, Ning Aoxue. She was the one who had just used the excuse of going to the restroom to call Lin Feng. Seeing Lin Feng arrive so quickly and even blast the door open with such violent means, Ning Aoxue felt a bit uncomfortable.
The man in black whom Lin Feng had sent flying with one punch was now also struggling to his feet, standing alongside his companions to block Lin Feng. Their eyes were full of gravity. This guy in front of them was seriously strong!
"Lin Feng... you should go, you’re no match for Aunt Hua!" Su Zi seemed to snap out of it at this moment and said anxiously to Lin Feng. Then she turned back and grabbed the hand of the woman beside her, pleading, "Aunt Hua, Lin Feng is my classmate. He probably barged in here by accident. Don’t make things hard for him, just let him leave..."
Su Zi thought that after she said this, Lin Feng would definitely listen to her, leave for now, and then think of another way to meet her. But to her surprise, Lin Feng, whether from being too dense or pretending not to understand, actually rejected her request.
"Su Zi, we at least count as having been a thing, right? It’s been so long since we’ve seen each other, and you won’t even give me a hug? That’s way too stingy!" Lin Feng laughed dryly, but deep vigilance flashed in his eyes. He knew Su Zi’s warning wouldn’t be fake; this woman she called Aunt Hua was definitely an expert. What surprised Lin Feng, though, was that he couldn’t sense the slightest fluctuation of Inner Strength from Aunt Hua at all!
There were only two possibilities for that to happen. Either this Aunt Hua’s cultivation far surpassed Lin Feng’s and had reached the Innate realm or above, or the Cultivation Technique she practiced was very mystical, allowing her to completely suppress her aura so outsiders couldn’t detect it.
No matter which it was, Lin Feng knew this woman who seemed to be Su Zi’s bodyguard was no simple character.
"I remember now... so you’re that Lin Feng..." A faint smile suddenly appeared on Aunt Hua’s face. "Look at my memory. Some time ago, Old Su specifically reminded me, named you in particular and forbade you from approaching Miss. I didn’t expect you to still come... and to arrive so fast! Looks like your skills aren’t bad... how interesting."
Lin Feng didn’t speak. Instead, he quietly shot Ning Aoxue a look.
Ning Aoxue understood what Lin Feng meant. After hesitating for a moment, she finally walked over to Su Zi’s side and pulled her toward the corner of the private room.
Aunt Hua clearly saw what Ning Aoxue was doing, but she didn’t object. This kid Lin Feng didn’t look simple at all. If a fight really broke out and the two little girls got hurt by accident, that would be bad!
