The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 290: Keep Some Distance
Chapter 290: Chapter 290: Keep Some Distance
The dinner was lively, and the Zou family kept adding food to Ye Chenfeng’s bowl, to the point where he felt quite full by the end.
Right after dinner, Zou Linlin grabbed Ye Chenfeng’s hand and dashed upstairs, claiming, "Chenfeng, come to the upstairs room and teach me kung fu."
Zou Zedong and others watched as Zou Linlin and Ye Chenfeng vanished around the staircase corner, each with a different expression on their face.
"Dad, Linlin couldn’t really have fallen for Mr. Ye, could she? Mr. Ye isn’t from our world, and although I’d love to have him as my son-in-law, he already has a fiancée. Why won’t Linlin listen to reason? I told her to stay away from Mr. Ye, but instead, she’s been clinging to him even more," Zou Wenhai said with concern.
"I know, right! I doubt there’s another young man as outstanding as Chenfeng in this world. I’m actually more worried about Weiguo now. Didn’t Chenfeng mention it at dinner? Weiguo has malignant gastric cancer. Why couldn’t he just speak properly to Chenfeng? Now he has thoroughly offended him, and who will treat his cancer in the future?" Zou Zedong sighed.
"Dad, I think this time it was completely Uncle Ji’s arrogance. We had already said that Mr. Ye is a master of Medical Skills, but he just wouldn’t believe it. Does he think he’s the only smart one in this world, and the rest of us are fools?" Qiao Yi also felt very aversive to Ji Weiguo’s attitude earlier.
"Ji Weiguo, oh Ji Weiguo! That’s just what he’s like, probably he doesn’t have the fortune to meet a master like Chenfeng. I hope Weiguo can come to his senses sooner. I’ll try again to ask Chenfeng, see if I can save his life," said Zou Zedong, who was a very sentimental person. He couldn’t just watch his old friend Ji Weiguo succumb to cancer and do nothing!
...
Ye Chenfeng was practically dragged by Zou Linlin into the second-floor room; how could they possibly practice kung fu in a room?
This was the second time Ye Chenfeng had been in Zou Linlin’s room, where the woman had tried to seduce him the last time, only to end up being taken advantage of by Ye Chenfeng.
Zou Linlin flashed Ye Chenfeng a sweet smile and said, "Chenfeng, sit here for a while; I’ll head to the bathroom."
Watching Zou Linlin enter the bathroom, Ye Chenfeng thought to himself, "Could Zou Linlin be planning to use the same trick as last time? What exactly does she see in me? Now’s not the time to get involved with women!"
This time, there was no sound of flushing from the restroom, and the door soon opened. Ye Chenfeng was stunned for a couple of seconds when he saw Zou Linlin dressed in a flight attendant’s uniform.
With a sweet smile on her lips, Zou Linlin sauntered toward Ye Chenfeng, her waist swaying. In fact, she was beating a nervous drum in her heart! To put it plainly, Zou Linlin was a novice in love. After failing the last time, she sought advice from a few close friends; hearing that men are interested in uniforms, she bought a flight attendant outfit, a nurse outfit... indeed, she had purchased every kind of uniform available.
"Chenfeng, do I look pretty in this flight attendant uniform? Don’t you want me to be your girlfriend?" Zou Linlin’s voice was sweetly cloying as she reached out her hand to lightly touch the strands of hair by her ear.
"This woman is really stubborn! I absolutely must not fall for it," Ye Chenfeng lamented in his heart.
"Linlin, didn’t you say you wanted me to teach you kung fu? If you don’t need me to teach you anymore, then I should leave now," Ye Chenfeng’s gaze fell unconsciously on Zou Linlin, but his self-control was strong.
Blushing faintly on her cheeks as if she had drunk a little red wine, Zou Linlin’s allure grew even more seductive, "Chenfeng, am I not pretty? Am I not qualified to be your girlfriend?"
At that moment, Zou Linlin’s heartbeat raced fast within her chest; as a novice in love, she was forcefully calming her nervous heart. She was determined to make Ye Chenfeng fall for her; in her view, a man like Ye Chenfeng was a catch there was no finding again.
"Linlin, do you remember what I said last time?" Ye Chenfeng spoke calmly.
"Ye Chenfeng, do I really make you that disgusted?" Zou Linlin was upset to see that Ye Chenfeng remained unshaken, and as she got agitated, she moved a bit closer to him.
Accidentally, perhaps out of anger, Zou Linlin lost her balance and fell toward Chen Feng.
For a fleeting moment, their lips touched, and Zou Linlin’s eyes widened in shock.
Just then.
"Mr. Ye, Linlin, I’ve made some sweet soup; would you like some?" Qiao Yi’s voice suddenly came from outside the room.
Ye Chenfeng and Zou Linlin instantly snapped back to reality and pushed each other away.
"Mr. Ye, Linlin, are you in there?" Qiao Yi’s voice came again from outside the room.
"Mom, Chenfeng and I will be down in a moment," said Zou Linlin with a flushed face.
After the sound of footsteps outside the room gradually faded away, Ye Chenfeng awkwardly touched his nose and said, "Linlin, I think it’s getting late. That’s enough for today," and without waiting for Zou Linlin to speak, he fled the room.
Biting her red lips tightly, Zou Linlin muttered to herself, "Ye Chenfeng, even if you don’t want to be my boyfriend now, you must be my boyfriend; you have to take responsibility for me."
Zou Linlin suffered a setback once more that evening.
After going downstairs, Ye Chenfeng ate a bowl of sweet soup and couldn’t help thinking, "Women really are trouble! I must keep my distance from Zou Linlin from now on. If I end up with her too, things will only get more complicated. Now I should be thinking about how I can make Wanting change her mind. Although she said she doesn’t need me to take responsibility, I know those are just her angry words." (To be continued.
