Urban All-Round Master

...... Back at the villa, Lin Zifeng once again embarked on his cultivation journey.

The words from Beiming Yu today shocked him greatly, and he learned a lot of secrets. However, there was still a doubt in Lin Zifeng’s heart.

He didn’t know why Beiming Yu wanted to tell him these things, nor did he know why Beiming Yu wanted to help him. During the battle at Kunling Mountain, if it weren’t for Beiming Yu’s intervention at the last moment, he would certainly have been injured by the Supreme Emperor, and he might not have been able to keep the Magic Bracelet and the Heavenly Painting Halberd.

"If that person is really the Supreme Emperor, and he knows that I have the Magic Bracelet and the Heavenly Painting Halberd within me, I wonder if he will come looking for me next?" Lin Zifeng kept recalling the words the Supreme Emperor said to him that day.

He started feeling a bit uneasy inside. If the Supreme Emperor came personally, given his current combat power, it would be really difficult to resist. The Supreme Emperor was a figure comparable to his father, and even the Lin Family couldn’t do anything about him.

Also, what kind of family is this Lin Family? Because his last name is Lin as well. Who knows if there’s any connection.

"Discard distractions, concentrate and calm down. My primary goal now is to seize the time to cultivate. If I advance to the First Layer Heaven, it would mean more safety for me." With this thought, Lin Zifeng burned an incense stick, spread out a piece of paper, and used a brush to write the character ’静’ (tranquility) on it, concentrating and calming himself. He took half a minute to write this single character.

Only in this way could he discard distractions and clear his mind.

"No, my thoughts are still a bit chaotic, not calm enough." After finishing the first ’静’ character, his state of mind still didn’t achieve the desired tranquil effect, so he spread out the paper again and continued to write the character ’静’ on it repeatedly.

This method of calming down his mind was something he learned from books. It’s said that when the ancients had a troubled mind, they would use this method to calm themselves down.

Burn another incense stick to achieve the best state.

Quickly, after more than ten minutes, he wrote down dozens of ’静’ characters, with a focused and concentrated mind, eventually achieving some inner tranquility...

......

When the first ray of sunshine of the next morning illuminated through the window, Lin Zifeng’s eyelids slowly and groggily opened on the bed. However, the room was already covered with white paper.

But when he opened his eyes a sliver, a flawless face was almost touching the tip of his nose. He abruptly opened his eyes wide, nearly jumping out of bed in fright.

"Damn!" Lin Zifeng almost rolled off the bed in shock.

When he climbed back onto the bed, Nangong Bing had her hands behind her back, blinking at him. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

"W-When did you come in?" Lin Zifeng asked.

"Just now," Nangong Bing looked at him.

"Then why didn’t you knock before coming in~" Lin Zifeng was speechless. He glanced at her, annoyed, "You almost scared me to death."

"I did knock, but you didn’t respond at all," Nangong Bing rolled her eyes at him and said coyly, "It’s almost eleven o’clock now, and you haven’t gone out yet. I was worried, so I came in to check on you. I didn’t think you would not appreciate my concern. Hmph, if I’d known, I wouldn’t have come in to see you."

"..."

Lin Zifeng looked at her feigned angry face and found himself at a loss for words.

"By the way, Lin Zifeng, can you do me a favor?"

At this moment, Nangong Bing seemed to have something to say to him but found it hard to speak, her jade-like cheeks flushing red with urgency.

"What kind of favor?" Lin Zifeng asked.

"Uh..."

Reaching this point, Nangong Bing was at a loss for words again, not knowing how to continue. For an ordinary girl, this might not be a big deal, but for her, it felt a bit uncomfortable, even embarrassing, to say.

The more she thought about it, the more she found it hard to say out loud.

With no other choice, she took a deep breath in front of the terrified Lin Zifeng. Finally, after calming herself, she opened her eyes, exhaled, and said, "Can you accompany me to the hospital today?"

"Hospital? What for?" Lin Zifeng’s mind went blank, unable to comprehend.

Lately, he had spent much less time with her and had shown her very little care, which Lin Zifeng felt quite guilty about.

When asked why she needed to go to the hospital, Nangong Bing awkwardly scratched her head, "Of course, it’s for a prenatal check-up. Regularly checking the fetus’s health is essential. But, but..."

"But what?" Lin Zifeng asked.

"Every time I’m going alone, so every time the doctor asks where my husband is, I always say he’s very busy. But I’m always looked at by some women with very strange gazes."

"Is that so?" Lin Zifeng felt awkward. Going to the hospital for regular prenatal health checks is a very normal thing and quite a simple task, not necessarily requiring a husband to accompany.

"You didn’t know, at first I didn’t pay much attention to it. But as time went on, I found out from a nurse that each time I go for a prenatal check-up, those expectant mothers undergoing the same procedure always talk behind my back."

"Talk about you? What do those expectant mothers say about you?"

"They, of course, say I’m a mistress and stuff like that. Every time other women come to the hospital, their husbands accompany them, but I’m always alone. Over time, they would definitely talk."

Talking about this, Nangong Bing’s eyes showed a hint of sadness. Always proud and aloof, Nangong Bing was about to become a mother, and her personality had changed because of a man. She was no longer as aloof as before and had lost that cold aura she used to have.

"Those gossipy women are talking about you behind your back?" Lin Zifeng was enraged. It’s okay to insult him, but insulting his woman was absolutely unacceptable.

"Let’s go, today I’ll take you to the hospital as your husband. I really don’t believe anyone will dare to gossip behind our backs. I’ll knock their teeth out if they do." With this, he grabbed his clothes and pulled Nangong Bing towards the door.

At that moment, he felt extremely sorry for her.

This time, no matter what, he had to win some face for her...

"Buzz buzz buzz... buzz buzz buzz..."

The deep and rumbling roar of a car engine started up suddenly. Lin Zifeng said go, so go he did, heading to the hospital with the overjoyed Nangong Bing.

Damn it ~ If anyone dares to talk behind my wife’s and kid’s back, I’ll break their teeth...

But as soon as they arrived at the hospital, all the bravado evaporated upon seeing the hospital environment.

Stepping into the maternity department, he was dumbfounded.

The massive waiting room was almost entirely filled with pregnant women. Some were there for pregnancy check-ups, some for prenatal care, and others, well, for abortions!

And with it being the weekend, there were especially many people. You could distinguish the pregnant women who were there for check-ups based on their big bellies, but for someone like Nangong Bing, whose belly didn’t show, most thought she was there for an abortion.
