Transformed into Hyper Zetton, the school beauty was terrified in the second playthrough.

After leaving the private room, Lin Chengfeng didn't forget to go to the pet storage area to pick up the cat that never smiles. (PS: Um, I think I forgot about this cat earlier.)

Looking at the chaotic scene inside the store, Lin Xingtong couldn't help but burst out laughing.

But reason quickly prevailed, and various worries surfaced on his face.

"Brother, is this really a good idea? Grandpa... cough, let's put the Luo family aside for now, the Lu family is an all-powerful family in Sacred Heart Base City. If we offend them like this, I'm afraid..."

Lin Chengfeng shook his head and smiled, "It's not a big problem. With me here, everything will be fine."

"Anyway, go home first. Trust me, neither the Lu family nor the Luo family will come knocking on your door to cause you trouble."

Lin Xingtong opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but after noticing Lin Chengfeng's cold gaze, she roughly understood the situation and shut her mouth, no longer expressing her concerns.

……

A high-rise building in a hotel.

Gu Wanxue took off one of her earphones and sighed deeply.

"So that's how the Lu family got involved at the family banquet? I never imagined Lin Chengfeng's maternal grandfather's family was like this. No wonder he did everything he could to escape his maternal grandfather's family in his past life."

Gu Wanxue left the soft sofa and changed into an all-black outfit.

I looked toward the bathroom where the sound of running water was coming from.

"Xia Qi, I'm going out to buy something to eat. Is there anything you'd like to eat?"

"Strawberry cake! Thank you." Xia Qi replied without any hesitation.

"Okay, there will be a lot of people on the first night of the base city connection, so I might be back quite late."

With that, Gu Wanxue left the room.

……

Inside a private club in Shangcheng District.

Lu Jiba sat on a long, red sofa, savoring his wine.

Qin Liefeng stood respectfully before him, bowing low, and asked cautiously, "Young Master Lu, why didn't you let me stop that brat Lin Chengfeng just now?"

Qin Liefeng's face revealed barely suppressed anger.

He truly fell in love with Luo Yuening; it wasn't just lust. Otherwise, he wouldn't have become the son-in-law of an ordinary family.

In the commotion just now, although Luo Yuening was pushed away, she still accidentally tripped and fell, getting a minor injury.

Qin Liefeng blamed all his anger on Lin Chengfeng.

If he doesn't release the crocodile, his fiancée won't get hurt.

Lu Jiba swirled the red wine in his glass and said slowly, "That kid isn't that simple. As a fellow combatant, he knows the hierarchy among combatants very well. Even so, he still dared to confront me head-on, which means he has a powerful figure backing him who is no less influential than my Lu family."

"Taking action against him on the spot might bring unnecessary trouble to the family."

"Moreover, with the friendly match approaching, as the first pilot city for the rule reform, our Sacred Heart Base City is under the watchful eyes of many. We absolutely cannot afford to make any mistakes at this time."

Lu Jiba downed the red wine in his hand in one gulp.

"But... are we just going to let it go like this?" Qin Liefeng gritted his teeth, unwilling to give up.

"Forget it?" Lu Jiba sneered, "How could that be? No one who offended me that day has ever seen the sun rise the next day."

"It's the same this time, at most we'll let him live a few more hours."

"There are people watching from above. If we can't take action on our own, then we'll force them to take action."

Lu Jiba's lips curled into a sinister smile, and he continued, "That kid's sister has exceptional blood; I need her. And she seems to be that kid's Achilles' heel, so..."

"I need you to do one thing: the moment that kid makes a move on you, we can strike."

Qin Liefeng trembled, looked up to meet Lu Jiba's blood-red eyes, pursed his dry lips, and realized what Lu Jiba wanted him to do.

I could very well be used as a pawn to be sacrificed at any time.

but.

Even so, Qin Liefeng was determined to do it.

Because Lin Chengfeng injured his fiancée, and he also suffered a psychological blow from losing a direct confrontation.

Qin Liefeng already hated him to the core.

"Young Master Lu, please give your orders. I am willing to go through fire and water for you!" Qin Liefeng said, clasping his hands in a fist salute.

……

Xiacheng District.

Lin Xingtong lives on the 21st floor; it's a two-bedroom apartment.

Although it's a bit narrow, it's still better than the containers in the lower city of Longyuan Base City.

"The bedding is in the study; it's a bit cramped there, so you'll have to make do there."

Lin Xingtong moved a bunch of odds and ends out of the study and threw them into a corner of the living room.

Lin Chengfeng and the Laughing Cat stood on the balcony, enjoying the northwest wind.

This balcony doesn't face the fresh night sky, but another apartment building with most of its walls peeling off. Below it is a narrow alley filled with garbage, almost a garbage dump.

"Sigh, this wretched thing is even worse than the old house."

"I'll talk to her later and suggest we move to Longyuan Base City. At least I can protect her there," Lin Chengfeng murmured.

Just then, Lin Xingtong's voice came from inside the house: "Brother, the water's boiled. Do you want to shower first?"

"No, you go ahead and wash up. I'm going out to buy some food. Before I come back, no matter what happens, don't go out alone."

"Oh... okay then, I'll go take a shower first." Lin Xingtong pursed her lips and walked into the bathroom.

Lin Chengfeng turned and went inside, closing the balcony door behind him.

but……

The cat that doesn't smile is still outside.

However, it has no time to pay attention to Lin Chengfeng right now.

Because it has spotted its prey.

Golden vertical pupils stared intently at the three lewd men and a disheveled girl downstairs.

"I...I've already paid back all the money, what else do you want?" The short-haired girl's eyes were filled with tears as she clutched her chest and backed away step by step.

When they were backed into a dead end, the girl's dim eyes saw no hope at all.

Among the three, the beer-bellied man in the middle scoffed, "Ha, you think you're all right after paying back the money? Don't you know the rules for borrowing money from us?"

"Any woman who comes to us for a loan will have to pay back not only the money, but also her body!"

Upon hearing this, the girl felt utterly devastated, and her delicate body trembled uncontrollably.

"Tsk tsk tsk, boss, this chick's hot. Can I touch her first?" the skinny guy next to the beer-bellied man said lewdly, rubbing his hands together.

The beer-bellied man shoved him aside: "Get lost! Of course I'll be the first to pounce on this kind of gem!"

"Hehe, boss, the video camera is set up, you can start anytime," another man with a pockmarked face said with a grin as he set up the video camera.

Seeing this, the beer-bellied man quickly took off his shirt.

"Haha, come on, baby, let me give you a check-up."

"No...don't come any closer, no!!" the girl kept resisting.

But how could she possibly match the strength of a beer-bellied man?

"Shut up! It's so noisy!"

Snapped!

The beer-bellied man grabbed her by the neck and slapped her across the face, and the girl immediately became obedient.

Tears mixed with bloodstains streaked down her cheeks.

Just as the beer-bellied man's lewd hand reached for the girl's chest, a loud bang suddenly came from behind.

Boom!!

"Who?!"

"Damn it! Who dares to disturb my enjoyment!" The beer-bellied man and his companions all turned around to look.

A two-tailed white cat was standing on the lid of the trash can.

Under the light, the shadow of the cat that doesn't smile is stretched infinitely.

"A cat with two tails...?"
