To Love You Again

Chapter 415 - The Hidden Master

Noticing that her man did not want to spit it out, she pouted slightly, left his shoulder, and sat back properly on her seat.

"Although I feel bad because she is Tang Xinyang's little sister, but you are my boyfriend after all. I can't just let her try to get you. Having impure thoughts towards you is not allowed."

Impure thoughts would give birth to impulsive actions. This had to be stopped.

Linfeng chuckled. Acting so clingy and protective like a mother hen to her chick, so cute. His hands itched to rub her head, but held back.

The woman beside him apparently was still simmering in vinegar. Her long phoenix eyes glanced askance at him sharply. "You don't happen to have any thoughts about her, do you? You two have known each other for a long time…"

Considering that the other was his childhood friend, was he concerned about Tang Yin? He wouldn't do foolish things like feel bad for the other girl and run to her to explain things or comfort her, right?

Although Xiong Zhi also thought that she was overthinking things, but in her years of 'research', this happened a lot in dramas as the number one source of misunderstanding between couples.

Linfeng saw Xiong Zhi's narrowed eyes and felt even itchier. So this was how she looked like when she was immersed in a vinegar jar. Somehow, the feeling was not bad.

Seeing her eyes narrow even more, he could almost hear her inner mind saying, 'why are you still not answering, young man' and the desire to tease her rose again.

"Actually, I did feel bad about earlier. After all, she is the first young miss I served. We can also be considered as friends."

Xiong Zhi's ears picked up the word, 'first young miss'. Thinking about it now, she did not feel as guilty as earlier.

Humph!

Xiong Zhi gazed at him accusingly. "So what if she's your first? You're mine now."

The little Linfeng in his heart grinned foolishly, but outwardly, he appeared calm. He raised an eyebrow as a challenge, his eyes twinkling in amus.e.m.e.nt.

"Really? Based on the law, to make sure that a certain property is yours, there should be a legal proof doc.u.menting it. How am I yours?"

The woman looked at him blankly, as if saying, 'You're my boyfriend yet you actually wanted to shirk responsibility.'

He continued teasing with a straight look. He leaned forward and whispered temptingly.

"Shouldn't you show me some proof that I am indeed yours?"

Xiong Zhi paused. Was Linfeng flirting with her?

Then she suddenly remembered her 'invitation' to the bathroom.

She asked directly with a serious face, "Want to go to the bathroom to prove it to you?"

Linfeng blinked, the little Linfeng waving its flag happily marked with 'strategy success'. "What could going to the bathroom do to prove that I am Young Miss's property?"

Of course he knew the answer, but he liked to tease her.

Xiong Zhi the-straight-ball-woman looked at him doubtfully. 'Is he serious?'

The man in front of her blinked innocently again.

Xiong Zhi narrowed her eyes again and whispered back. "I thought you knew… since you were embarrassed earlier when I invited you."

"...." Embarrassed? When did he act embarrassed? He refused to admit it.

"You saw it wrongly, Young Miss."

"...Heh." Xiong Zhi smirked, raised a hand, pinched his chin lightly, and stood up. "Well, it doesn't matter. I will let you know right now." After saying that, she turned to walk away.

Linfeng gazed at the domineering back. "..."

Xiong Zhi walked a couple of steps, noticed that he did not follow, and looked back.

"You're not coming? You already said 'yes' earlier. No backing down."

Linfeng: "..."

Every time he wanted to tease her, she would always manage to turn the tables with a domineering hand. He was beginning to feel that their roles were somehow… somehow wrong, in a sense.

Why was his Young Miss so cool and handsome?

He stood up and walked after her, his inky peach blossom eyes reflecting her back.

Well, even though she acted more handsome and cooler than him, he did not dislike it even a bit. In fact, his heart would always skip a beat.

So Linfeng happily followed his heroic Young Miss, while the little Linfeng in his heart danced foolishly, giggling.

The banquet was finally about to reach the highlight of the night.

It was Tang Yin's debut dance.

While the staff was discreetly arranging for the debut dance, the guests were no longer as restrained as earlier. Many couples were dancing around and laughter filled the halls. Glasses of champagne could be heard tinkling as many business deals were promised.

At the back area far away from the stage, there were less people and the atmosphere was less lively compared to the front and middle areas.

Most of the guests with relatively lower backgrounds had already swam into the merriment ahead and grabbed the chance to climb the ladders.

But it did not bother the young man sitting quietly at the dimly lit corner. For him, he liked to be in a place where he could observe people quietly without anyone bothering him.

It was not until he sensed a great presence coming to his side that he glanced sideways. His eyes sharpened.

His languid position straightened up as he stood to acknowledge the person coming to him.

"It's a great honor to have Mistress Tang come here in this humble seat." Lu Jin bowed slightly to the old woman being escorted by an old butler.

"Ha-ha, your skills are top notch. Even Tang Xinyang, that child, could not compare to you. You managed to notice me even though I deliberately hid my presence."

"Mistress Tang is mistaken, it is not because my skill is great," he said and shook his head.

The old butler's polite smile paused slightly. Even though Lu Jin did not say it directly, he could tell now that it was his mistake that their disguise to observe this young master silently was exposed.

He hastily apologized to his master. "This is due to this old butler's mistake."

Mistress Tang simply smiled and did not blame the butler. However, inside, she was still taken aback by Lu Jin's capability.

This old butler was second only to her in the whole Tang family. He was by no means someone to be underestimated. Yet, he was still discovered by Lu Jin.

This young man, she did not see him for a few years, yet he had already grown up and improved drastically? How so? Was there a great master behind the Lu family?

"It appears the young kid back then finally grew up into an amazing person. Your mother will be very proud."

Lu Jin suddenly turned silent. For a moment, his eyes flashed and a rare emotion passed by. Yet it quickly went away and no one noticed.

"It's all due to the people who supported me and are very kind to me." Lu Jin still acted like a fine young gentleman that he was, though his face was still expressionless and his tone was cold.

"Is your master included as well?"

"My master?"

Mistress Tang just smiled mysteriously.

"Your qigong is already at mastery level. Here in the country, only a handful of people can match you, considering that you can outweigh my butler. I am very familiar with the masters in the country, but I haven't heard any of them taking you in. So I am curious which master you are under."

Mistress Tang was very interested about Lu Jin's teacher in martial arts. Since she was the head of a family who is great in martial arts, she wanted to know more about this 'master' of Lu Jin. Maybe they could exchange a few notes?

If possible, she wanted to appraise the other's level.

For an unparalleled martial artist like her, meeting an opponent who could rouse her curiosity was one in a million chance. Thus, Mistress Tang was excited to meet this certain 'master'.

However, Lu Jin's already cold face turned even colder.
