To Love You Again

Chapter 236 - The Five Kings

The five men studied Linfeng for a moment and couldn't help but comment.

"You are so young and quite talented. I heard you are still a teenager?" A handsome man with Arabic features studied him. This man's name was Caleb, a man who had already made a name for himself amongst the sheiks of the Middle East.

Linfeng raised his head and nodded.

All these successful men inside the room were in their mid to late twenties. Compared to them, he was discovered indeed very young.

"That's why we wanted to meet him, isn't it? He is young but has a very mature and stable mind like us. Not to mention his potential. He was well deserved to be here," a man with European features said with a smile. He introduced himself as Eugene, a successor of another well-known empire in Europe. He was currently managing his own company he had made from scratch and have already expanded to several branches in different countries.

"I am honored," Linfeng bowed as well.

"Hey, Erich, remember to make a seat for him," Cabel reminded the host for today's meeting.

"Ah, yes. What's your favorite color?" Erich suddenly asked Linfeng.

"..."

Linfeng was stunned.

Why were they asking for his favorite color, instead of getting the details of the deal?

"Is it hard to choose?" Eugene followed up.

"..."

It seemed that these men would not start talking about business if he did not answer.

Linfeng tried to think about what his favorite color was. His long lashes lowered as he thought.

What was his favorite color again? He did not really have any favorite color or preference. But if he were to choose a color, which would it be then?

He thoughtfully raised his head, and his eyes suddenly caught on the painting by the wall on the other side of the room.

It was a painting of an azure ocean with a cruise ship sailing above the gentle waves.

A few images flashed by his mind.

He thought of the girl who wore a light blue summer dress in the amus.e.m.e.nt park on their first date. The light blue dress was like waves of the ocean as it gently swayed from the breeze. Her translucent skin was like the white fine sand, making her appear more gentler, softer, and delicate.

In his eyes, he saw a figure of her smiling to him so tenderly. He thought of how stunning she was, that slender figure in the night ocean blue dress, standing in the middle of the sea of blue roses. She was like a fairy who visited the mortal world.

And in the night they spent together, his eyes feast on her as she glowed in that navy blue gown under the moonlight while she held the crescent necklace.

Unknowingly, Linfeng's eyes turned gentle as he thought of her. A slight flush rose upon his cheeks, the faint smile on his lips turned more tender.

He unconsciously replied in a trance. "...Blue." He observed that his young miss truly like the blue color.

The five men who was fed dog food: "..."

Why the hell did they suddenly smell the scent of spring?

This young man in front of them looked like he had instantly travelled to a different dimension for a moment. The cool and calm aura had melted into lovely pink bubbles.

Obviously…

"Oohh, this young man is clearly in love," the easy going Eugene teased him after watching the spectacle of changing seasons. The others followed, too. Their knowing smiles were absolutely looking for a beating.

Linfeng was roused back, stunned for a moment at the sudden teasing.

"..?"

What did he do? Why did they suddenly say he was in love? He only said his chosen color while thinking about her...

Then he realized it. Did he make a weird expression while thinking about her?

Suddenly, his cheeks flushed red embarrassment, and he coughed lightly to hide it.

"Heh~ The youngest is really in love! Who is the lucky girl?" Caleb laughed as he teased him too.

Linfeng helplessly shook his head at them. These men were truly weird. They just met for the first time but they were already acting like they were close.

What happened to the proper atmosphere of a formal business meeting?

The reserved Linfeng felt discomfited by their unexpected jolly and open personalities, as they acted rather intimately like they were all close to him.

"Let me take a guess, is she beautiful, sweet and cool?" Erich joined the teasing as well.

Linfeng did not answer and furrowed his brow.

"Can we start talking about business instead?" He said this with a faint frown.

When it came to his Young Miss, he could not help but feel a bit wary and defensive. Why should they know about her? It was not like they would be meeting her.

These five young men were all handsome, talented, and well-accomplished. Not to mention, their statuses were way above him. There was no need for them to know or meet his excellent Young Miss. He would not be so foolish as to make rivals for himself.

"Or is she named Xiong Zhi?" The only man who had remained quiet after the initial introductions earlier finally spoke while studying Linfeng closely.

Linfeng looked at the blonde man, his long, narrow eyes opening slightly wider in surprise. How did this man know about his Young Miss? Or rather, how did he know he was thinking about the Young Miss?

His eyes turned solemn in wariness.

Of course, he had thought of the possibility that these people, including the blonde haired man, had already investigated his background and learned who his master was.

However, the news that he harbor feelings for his master being revealed to outsiders... It was not good news at all.

William finally showed his playful smile.

"Fufu~ It looks like I am right."

Linfeng did not like his knowing tone. This blonde haired man said these words as if he can read what he was thinking just by looking at him. Even if he did, there were things that one could not just recklessly say out loud.

Did he know that what he was saying could put both his and Xiong Zhi's reputation at risk if it gets out?

The other four men took in Linfeng's reaction, and then looked back incredulously at William.

"Hold on, William! So, you went to China personally just to check on that?" Erich asked as he connected the dots.

William leaned back on his cozy couch while he smirked smugly.

"Of course not. I went there on a business trip. I just happened to meet her. The taste of her hand is quite sweet, yet cold," William said suggestively as he licked his red lips.

It was a seductive scene that could make women swoon and flush. However, all the people present happened to be all straight men, thus, no one appreciated the view. They just felt disgusted looking at his indecent act.

"Oh, poor girl, the dog pounced on her with its slobber," Erich grimaced while he shook his head.

"Did she pounce back at you? Your invitation to women sells very well," Caleb asked curiously.

Linfeng's frown visibly deepened. He tried to catch up on their words, and what he understood did not please him at all.

William Grand met his Young Miss?

"Ohoho, she's quite the feisty one. She is not a rose, but a Venus flytrap," William mysteriously said while his eyes glinted with interest. He just quoted the exact words of Xiong Zhi from that time.

"Ooohh!" The four men looked collectively intrigued.

They knew William quite well. He was very popular among women. However, even though he appeared gentle, sweet, and kind to women, his interest was actually quite hard to pique.

For William to show interest like this, it meant that Linfeng's master was really unusual. To perfectly describe it, she should be a very interesting person.

The four men looked at each other, their eyes flashing. They kind of wanted to meet her, too.

"..."

Linfeng really did not like William's tone at all.

Did he just say that her hand 'tasted' sweet and cold?

He kissed her hand?!

Coldness crept on the faint smile on Linfeng's face as his eyes dangerously looked at William. Did this perverted oily pig dare touch those jade-like hands with his dirty lips?

Linfeng took out a handkerchief from his pocket. He calmly asked William.

"When did it happen?"

"...? Pardon?" William did not hear his question clearly as he was thinking about the girl he had met recently.

"When did you meet my Young Miss Zhi?" Linfeng's tone was eerily calm, but the people around him paused and looked at him twice. Their sharp senses perceived the change in his temperament.

"Just a couple of days ago. You won't believe it, her curvy figure in that wet silver dress looked really amazing. She is truly enchanting," William gushed as he licked his cherry lips once more. His eyes seemed to be in a daze as he thought back to Xiong Zhi's figure.

...Wet dress?

"..." The temperature inside the room plummeted down. Linfeng stepped forward and quietly passed the handkerchief to William with an expressionless face.

William woke up from his daze and took a glance at it. "What is it for?"

"I will let you borrow it for the time being. If you have a habit of wiping your saliva on something, kindly use this, instead of using other's precious hands.' Linfeng's chilly voice rang inside the room.

"..."

"It's very clean, I just used it when I came out of the bathroom."

"..!"

Doing this might offend people, but how could Linfeng bear to hear such indecent words about his most beloved Young Miss?

How dare this pervert defile his Young Miss's hand? How dare he use those perverted eyes to look indecently at his Young Miss?

Just imaging the scene, her wet jet black hair strands, a silvery white dress that stuck intimately to her figure, the droplets that travelled from her brow to the side of her flawless face, to her neck, and below... Linfeng knew that such a scene would be stimulatingly captivating.

Knowing that the scene was witnessed by another man... with another man's eyes feasting on her. Linfeng felt the rush of killing intent coursing through his veins.

But he restrained himself, because there was also one thing that bothered him just as much.

…Why was his Young Miss in such a situation, drenched wet in her formal dress?

The annoyance and worry intertwined inside his chest, making him feel harder to breathe.

Linfeng had been busy in the last couple of days. Thus, he did not give much attention to the news back in the country. He suddenly became worried that something bad might have happened to his Young Miss while he was not there.
