Unrivaled Soldier in the City-Chapter 120 A Touch of Separation (5th Update)
"Oh? Where did this rumor originate?" Lin Kuang asked promptly upon hearing Lin Guo’er’s words, his deep eyes narrowing slightly.
"I don’t know. The news seemed to materialize out of thin air. I couldn’t trace the source at all, but it spread nonetheless," Lin Guo’er said again.
"It’s highly likely Chu Zhongtian was behind this, or perhaps Ye Tiannan. Only those two have that kind of energy, but I’m leaning toward the former. Chu Zhongtian is definitely not a simple man; at least, his mind is far sharper than Ye Tiannan’s. Furthermore, following this line of reasoning, it’s very probable that Ye Tiannan was responsible for yesterday’s incident. If that’s the case, then the one who released this information was undoubtedly Chu Zhongtian!
"By doing this, he gets to sit back and watch a good show—see me fight Ye Tiannan while he reaps the rewards. Tsk tsk, Chu Zhongtian has played his hand beautifully," Lin Kuang said with a cold laugh, a frosty glint flashing in his narrowed eyes.
Hearing this, both Lin Guo’er and Liu Shilin shuddered violently. They were both sharp-witted women, so Lin Kuang’s explanation made the situation perfectly clear. However, they were still puzzled. When had Lin Kuang provoked Ye Tiannan?
"You two don’t need to worry about this. Rest assured, I have my own way of handling it," Lin Kuang said with a smile, looking at the two beautiful women before him.
"You... you really have a plan?" Lin Guo’er and Liu Shilin couldn’t help but ask.
"Of course. They’re just a couple of minor figures, so let them make a fuss. I have nothing better to do anyway, so I can play along with them. Otherwise, having nothing to do all day is quite depressing," Lin Kuang said with a grin, his expression utterly relaxed. He seemed completely unconcerned about retaliation from Chu Zhongtian and Ye Tiannan.
Seeing his nonchalance, Lin Guo’er and Liu Shilin wanted to say more, but he had already turned and headed back to his room.
"Sigh, Guo’er, do you really think Lin Kuang can pull this off? One is a secretary, and the other is the mayor’s son. These are major figures in East Sea, the kind who can make the entire city tremble just by stomping their foot. Can Lin Kuang really handle both of them alone?" Liu Shilin said, her voice laced with immense worry.
She believed in Lin Kuang’s strength, but she also knew that sometimes, strength isn’t everything—not unless one’s power was so overwhelming that it could disregard all rules and defy all authority.
"Well, do you think Lin Kuang is a fool?" Lin Guo’er asked, looking at Liu Shilin.
Liu Shilin was taken aback, wondering why Lin Guo’er would ask such a question. What did that have to do with her worries? Although she didn’t understand, Liu Shilin still answered, "No, he’s not a fool. In fact, he’s very smart."
"Exactly. Since he isn’t a fool, he knows what he’s doing. Besides, he smiled so confidently. I think our worrying is pointless," Lin Guo’er said with a helpless sigh.
Liu Shilin paused, carefully considering her friend’s words. A smile gradually returned to her lovely face.
"You’re right. I was overthinking things. If Lin Kuang is confident, then we should trust him. And as for Yashi, even though I built it with my own two hands, if it gets suppressed, the worst that can happen is that I start over! If there’s no room for me in East Sea, I’ll just go to Hangcheng! Is there really no place in this world for me, Liu Shilin, to make a stand?" Liu Shilin said with a laugh, her radiant expression brimming with powerful confidence.
"Yes! That’s the Shilin I know. Come here, let your big sister give you a kiss," Lin Guo’er said, puckering her red lips and planting one on Liu Shilin’s cheek.
"Hey! Guo’er, you rascal!" Kissed unexpectedly, Liu Shilin’s face flushed red as she shot a fierce glare at her friend.
"Hehe, Shilin, your skin is just so nice. It feels so soft to kiss," Lin Guo’er said, smacking her lips as if savoring the taste.
At this, Liu Shilin conceded defeat. "You perv!" With that, she quickly fled upstairs to change her clothes.
Watching Liu Shilin’s hasty retreat, Lin Guo’er doubled over with laughter.
"What’s so funny?" Lin Kuang, having just changed his clothes, emerged to see Lin Guo’er laughing without any regard for her image.
"Of course I have a reason to be happy. Hehe, little brother Kuang, why didn’t you come last night? Your big sister waited for you for such a long time. The feeling of sleeping alone is just awful, you know," Lin Guo’er cooed, sidling up to him and leaning on his shoulder, her breath as fragrant as an orchid.
Her voice, a tantalizing mix of complaint, coquetry, and feigned grievance, sent a thrill through him. He reflexively turned and pulled the seductive Demoness into his arms.
"There are plenty of rooms here. How about it?" Lin Kuang asked.
"Little brother Kuang, we have to leave in about fifteen minutes. Do you really think that’s enough time?" Lin Guo’er murmured, nestled in his embrace, her eyes sultry.
"Er, you’re right. It’s definitely not enough, far too little," Lin Kuang said, a little frustrated.
"Exactly. So, you can come to my place tonight. Big sister will grant your every wish," Lin Guo’er whispered, pressing herself against his chest.
A shiver ran down Lin Kuang’s spine. The woman in his arms was a true Demoness. If she had lived in ancient times, she would have been another Su Daji—a textbook femme fatale.
"You’re the one who said it. If I show up tonight, you can’t just leave me at the door," Lin Kuang said with a matching grin.
"Of course. As long as my dear little Kuang comes, this big sister certainly won’t refuse you," Lin Guo’er replied with another smile, then began to squirm out of his embrace. After all, Liu Shilin was still upstairs, and it wouldn’t be good if she saw them like this. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
Lin Kuang didn’t stop her, allowing her to break free. However, he did collect a little interest first.
Just as Lin Guo’er slipped from his arms, Lin Kuang leaned in, his lips brushing against hers for a fleeting moment before parting.
