Urban All-Round Master-Chapter 1633 - 1667: The Hai Family’s Number One Genius

"So, you’re saying that Nolan He is also a tough opponent?" Lin Zifeng shrugged his shoulders. Through their first encounter last night, he already had some confidence. If Nolan He wanted to take him down right away, it was almost impossible.

And for him to take down Nolan He was also challenging; at most, they’d end up in a draw.

Nolan He is a strong figure from the same era as Mu Liancheng from the Mu Family.

"Unfathomable!" Beiming Yu said coldly with deep eyes. "But forget it, telling you too much now might not be beneficial for you. Since you’ve offended the three major Families, what do you plan to do next?" 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Lin Zifeng had keen eyes and noticed the slight wrinkle between Beiming Yu’s brows, seemingly wanting to say something to him. But since she didn’t speak, he naturally didn’t ask.

"So, based on the current situation, even if I don’t go looking for them, they’ll come finding me, right?" Lin Zifeng scoffed with a laugh; it was inevitably unavoidable, and he didn’t care anymore.

"You could say that," Beiming Yu nodded. She knew Lin Zifeng had already angered the three major Families in Yanjing.

To repeatedly attack these Families, these Families certainly wouldn’t let him go.

"Since that’s the case, there’s no choice then." After he finished speaking, Lin Zifeng shrugged his shoulders and was about to leave.

"Where are you going?" Beiming Yu realized something was amiss; this guy likes doing impulsive things. Who knows what he’s thinking?

"To kill someone." Lin Zifeng nonchalantly turned around and glanced at her.

"To kill someone? Who? Are you planning to challenge the three major Families?"

"Rather than waiting for them to come after me, I should naturally go after them first. Am I supposed to wait around for them to kill me?" Lin Zifeng chuckled, turned around, and then left Qishi Mansion.

...

In the afternoon, he found Hai Zhilan.

At this moment, seeing Lin Zifeng made Hai Zhilan act like a grandson. He couldn’t wait to shower Lin Zifeng with compliments.

"Brother Lin, you’re finally here. I’ve been waiting here for so long."

In the café, Hai Zhilan had booked a luxurious private room, saying he invited Lin Zifeng for coffee today. Originally, Lin Zifeng wasn’t too interested in these foreign things, but he couldn’t refuse him, so he reluctantly came to have a couple of drinks.

"Wow, we haven’t known each other for three days, and you’re already calling me ’Brother Lin’ like that? It’s making me uncomfortable all over." Lin Zifeng laughed heartily. After sitting down, Hai Zhilan quickly called the waiter to bring him a top-notch latte with a smile.

"What? It’s been just a few days, and you’re already anxious for Beiming Huang?" Picking up the latte, he took a gentle sip. And truth be told, this foreign drink really was bland, lacking any flavor.

"Brother Lin, you know. I’ve been pursuing Beiming Sister for a while now. It’s been many days since I last saw her. Now, when I call, she doesn’t answer, and she doesn’t reply to my messages either. It’s making me quite frustrated, Boss, I’m really frustrated now. I thought I could impress Beiming Huang, leverage the Beiming Family’s influence, and hold my head high in my own Family, but it seems there’s no chance to do so now." Hai Zhilan said with frustration.

"Oh? Isn’t your status in the Family quite high?" Lin Zifeng raised an eyebrow, thinking that this Hai Zhilan shouldn’t have a low status in the Family. But now, hearing him say so, Lin Zifeng felt something was off. Could it be that Hai Zhilan likes Beiming Huang just to elevate his position within his Family?

"To be honest with you, these years haven’t been great in the Family."

Seemingly touching a sore spot, Hai Zhilan grabbed the coffee on the table and gulped it down.

Then slammed it on the table forcefully, expressing dislike, "Life may be good, but holding in this frustration is really unbearable. I constantly feel like I’m facing some inexplicable angst every day."

"Oh? What do you mean by that?" Lin Zifeng looked at him, not quite understanding his words. In his view, this Hai Zhilan, whether in lifestyle or habits, exudes grandeur.

He doesn’t seem to be a Family waste or an abandoned scion.

"I have a half-brother and a biological sister. Because my brother’s aura is too lofty, it makes my efforts impossible to catch up to him, occasionally enduring his sneers. Plus, my brother is hailed as the Hai Family’s first genius. My father loves him dearly, so as his brother, I feel like a tragedy."

"Then what about your biological sister?" Lin Zifeng grew curious; without him saying it, Lin Zifeng could understand. Having a genius brother, being the younger sibling, especially not a full sibling, his tragedy is imaginable.

"My sister is also a genius. Fortunately, she looks out for me in the Family; otherwise, I could hardly stay in the Family." Hai Zhilan said, lifting the coffee cup again and taking a swig.

"Miss, please refill me with strong coffee." Hai Zhilan shouted loudly.

Sitting opposite him, Lin Zifeng naturally understood his pain. A genius brother, a genius sister. If he doesn’t perform well, he’s bound to be marginalized by the Family.

"Can I help you somehow?" Lin Zifeng pondered for a moment. If he could assist in this regard, it might be better than playing matchmaker. At least he wouldn’t have to consider Beiming Huang’s mood nor find common topics with her.

"Help me? How? Brother Lin, although I admit you’re amazing, you’re not necessarily a match for my brother. Besides... forget it, let’s not bring this up. I just couldn’t hold back and vented. Let’s go back to discussing Beiming Huang." Hai Zhilan shook his head with a bitter smile.

"Your current predicament is being oppressed by your genius brother, feeling constant pressure within the Family, right?" Lin Zifeng pinpointed his thoughts.

"Yes."

"I can help you." Lin Zifeng casually tossed him a hope. Then leisurely picked up the coffee and took another sip.

"Help me? Brother Lin, can you really help me?" When Hai Zhilan reached for the coffee pot, his hand suddenly paused in mid-air, as if he had heard the most beautiful sound in the world.

Despite their temporary acquaintance, Hai Zhilan still didn’t entirely trust him. But if he could really help, who knows?

He was so mysterious; perhaps he had some backing behind him?

However, Hai Zhilan didn’t know that the time he called Beiming Huang, it was Lin Zifeng who answered, and he was thoroughly scolded. Yet, now they’ve become friends...

"What? Are you doubting my capability?" Lin Zifeng picked up the coffee and took a sip, furrowing his eyebrows as if drinking strong spirits, it really tasted awful!
