Chapter 137: What You Can’t Have Always Causes Trouble
“Big breasts and no brains is actually wrong!” Lin Fengmian said seriously.
“Why? My chest isn’t big either,” Zhou Xiaoping said, looking down at her toes in embarrassment.
“Exactly, it’s not big, so why doesn’t it have a brains either…” Lin Fengmian said mysteriously.
Zhou Xiaoping was stunned, then she lunged at him, “Lin Fengmian, I’ll fight you to the death!”
Seeing Zhao Yucheng’s discouraged look, Wen Qinlin held Zhou Xiaoping back and led her away, preventing her from causing any more trouble.
After everyone left, Zhao Yucheng looked haggard and said, “Fengmian, Yazi was just manipulated by Huang Long. She is not inherently evil, you…”
But Lin Fengmian shook his head, his expression complex. “Uncle Zhao, I admit that I underestimated her. She’s not a bimbo.”
“She’s smarter than I thought. She’s not as innocent as you think. She is very good at setting people up and using them as pawns.”
“In the end, it won’t be her who dies, but that self-important old fool, Master Huang Long.”
Zhao Yucheng’s face turned ashen, as if he had aged several years in an instant.
He grabbed Lin Fengmian and shook his head. “No, no, Fengmian, give me a chance to prove it!”
Lin Fengmian felt a pang of sympathy and nodded. “All right, I’ll give her a chance!”
A moment later, Wen Qinlin’s voice echoed throughout Ning City.
“Zhao Yazhi, stop hiding. Your master has already confessed. If you come out now, you might get a lighter sentence.”
But as night fell, the city remained quiet, and Zhao Yazhi failed to appear, much to everyone’s frustration.
Lin Fengmian shook his head and said to Wen Qinlin, “Brother Wen, I need you to come out of town with me.”
Wen Qinlin’s thoughts raced and he asked, “You want to find that fox spirit?”
Lin Fengmian nodded and took out the immortal-seeking incense that the fox spirit had given him. “I want to talk to her. It would be an inconvenience, but could you come with me, Brother Wen?”
Wen Qinlin didn’t refuse and followed Lin Fengmian as they flew out of the city. It was still three hours to midnight.
Half an hour later, the two of them returned. Zhao Yucheng anxiously asked about the result, but Lin Fengmian could only shake his head helplessly.
Under the night sky, thick clouds hung low, casting a shadow over the bright stars and moon, making the city and its surroundings appear hazy.
The wind howled, and the occasional roar of a beast echoed through the night, like the cries of ghosts and wolves.
Countless beasts gathered outside the city, their silhouettes forming a menacing presence, like a dark cloud bearing down, a prelude to destruction.
On the city walls, firelight illuminated a small patch of darkness, but the flames were faint and weak, like a flickering candle in the endless night.
The faces of the city guards were pale, sweat dripping from their foreheads, their eyes filled with worry and tension.
The beasts outside the city drew closer, the black cloud spreading like an ink stain, forming a huge shadow that seemed ready to swallow the entire city.
The roars of the beasts became more frequent, as if calling to each other, urging them forward.
Under the oppressive weight of the dark cloud, Ning City felt like it was on the brink of apocalypse, enveloped in fear.
The city, usually aglow with lights, was now dark and silent, with the doors and windows of every household tightly shut.
Citizens were ordered to stay in the center of the city, not to go anywhere, not even to light a lamp, and silently await their fate.
Outside the city, various trenches and sentries were on high alert. The city guards, clad in armor and wielding weapons, patrolled the city with tense and vigilant faces.
The flickering firelight cast a determined and holy glow on their faces, and the entire Ning City was filled with a palpable tension and sense of impending conflict.
In the square of the city lord’s residence, Lin Fengmian and Wen Qinlin, along with others, gathered to discuss the preparations for the night. On the surface, there appeared to be two men and six women, but in reality, there was one man and eight women, with the additional one being Luo Xue.
Lin Fengmian stood in the middle, surrounded by the fragrant and captivating presence of the women. The scene was a mixture of beauty and allure, with the women vying for his attention, making it difficult for him to take his eyes off of them. This time he was truly in a position of abundance, with many chests and few chickens.
While arranging the details for the upcoming night, he subtly compared their sizes.
Hmm, it seems that Liu Mei, the vixen, is the most impressive, followed by Mo Ruyu.
Based on his experience, Chen Qingyan, who looks small, is surprisingly in third place.
Yunxi is still young and is currently ranked fourth, but she has great potential.
Fifth is… Wen Qinlin?
Cough, cough, that’s a mistake.
Damn it, Wen Qinlin, how can you look bigger than Wang Yanran when you stand next to her?
Wang Yanran’s size is moderate, just enough, but more on the petite and delicate side.
And Zhou Xiaoping?
Well, at night, it’s hard to tell the front from the back, so she’s not included in the comparison.
Zhou Xiaoping felt Lin Fengmian’s pitying gaze and became indignant. She stamped her foot and said, “Lin Fengmian, what are you looking at? I have a feeling you’re thinking about something bad!”
Lin Fengmian awkwardly coughed and said, “No, no, not at all!”
Seeing that the girl was about to continue, he quickly changed the subject. “All right, let’s follow the plan I laid out.”
“Has everyone memorized the key points of the formation and the areas to guard?”
The group nodded, and Mo Ruyu, looking at Lin Fengmian, leaned in close, her large chest pressing against him. With a lovesick expression, she said, “Little brother Lin, we still have some time… how about we go to the side courtyard and do some intimate things?”
Zhou Xiaoping’s face turned slightly red and she pouted, “You shameless vixen!”
Feeling the immense pressure, Lin Fengmian looked at her innocent face and said with a mixture of amusement and annoyance, “Sister, we’re busy with important matters.”
Mo Ruyu looked on the verge of tears and said, “But the wind is cold and the water is chilly, the brave warrior may not return. I’m afraid I won’t come back, can’t you satisfy me before I die?”
Then she pulled Liu Mei over and presented her like a treasure. “I can do it with Sister Liu Mei too!”
Lin Fengmian saw Liu Mei giggling and felt his throat dry up. He said with difficulty, “No… that’s not possible.”
Mo Ruyu then pulled Wang Yanran over and looked at him expectantly. “How about this?”
Lin Fengmian took a deep breath, and Mo Ruyu pulled the confused Xia Yunxi over.
“Now?”
Seeing the four beauties standing together, Lin Fengmian’s rationality returned.
Children might want everything, but adults knew their limits.
He couldn’t handle it, and if he did, he would probably have to crawl out of there.
Besides, Xia Yunxi might not be able to accept it.
Most importantly, Luo Xue was there!
When Lin Fengmian saw that Mo Ruyu was about to add more people, he put on a serious face and said, “Sister, let’s not do this now!”
“With the city in such a critical state, this is not the time for such things. I really don’t have the heart for it right now.”
Zhou Xiaoping and Wen Qinlin were deeply impressed by Lin Fengmian’s determination. “Brother Lin, you are a real man!”
Seeing his seriousness, Mo Ruyu became even more lovesick. She squeezed her legs together, and her short legs fidgeted restlessly.
The things you can’t have are always the ones that cause you the most trouble!
