Urban Evil Suppression: Incorporating the Stone Hard Template

After that previous incident, the relationship between the two...

A subtle shift occurred without anyone noticing; it was no longer simply about profit.

Instead, it felt more like being with a long-time friend, with a greater sense of intimacy and ease.

As the conversation veered back to their previous topic, Ye Ziyun looked at Ling Feng with suspicion in her eyes:

"You said you were married, is that true? Looking at your age... you don't seem that old, do you?"

"Why would I lie to you about something like this?"

Ling Feng rolled his eyes at her. This question reminded him of how Ye Ziyun had been wary of him before.

"They got married just over half a year ago! To put it bluntly, it was an arranged marriage between their families!"

"A family marriage?" Ye Ziyun's eyes widened in surprise when she heard this term!

"So... you're actually a rich kid? How is that possible?"

"Doesn't it look like it?" Ling Feng twitched the corners of his mouth, revealing a self-deprecating smile.

"How is it similar?" Ye Ziyun shook her head repeatedly, not noticing anything amiss in Ling Feng's words.

My gaze swept over him several times, but I really couldn't see anything about him that made him look like a rich kid.

"You simply don't have that pampered, privileged air about you from childhood!"

"You have a really sharp eye!"

"Haha, you flatter me!"

"However, you're really wrong! I do come from a wealthy family!"

"real?"

"You know the Ling Group in Shanghai, right?"

"Nonsense, how could I not know?"

Ye Ziyun rolled her eyes at Ling Feng in return, secretly thinking that he had underestimated her.

"How much trouble did the Ling Group cause recently?"

In the entire Shanghai business community, who doesn't know that the Ling Group has offended someone?

In just a month or two, the once glorious Ling family...

It was then overwhelmed and collapsed, suffering a complete defeat.

Ling Feng ignored her glare and instead chuckled nonchalantly, "My surname is Ling, and my name is Ling Feng!"

Ling Feng's answer stunned Ye Ziyun for a moment before she asked incredulously:

"Your surname is Ling? Then... what's your relationship with the Ling Group?"

Ling Feng raised an eyebrow and said provocatively, "Why don't you take a guess?"

Ye Ziyun stared intently at Ling Feng, hesitated for a moment, and tentatively asked:

"You...you...could you be the real young master of the Ling family who was switched at birth?"

"You've even heard about this?"

Ling Feng was truly speechless. When did he, the "True Young Master," become so famous?

Could it be that the Ling family is spreading rumors everywhere? That's impossible, right? At least the Ling couple still have some sense of shame.

Could it be... those rich kids from wealthy families? That's impossible!

They'd be too busy trying to curry favor with him to gossip behind his back.

So... who is so bored as to spread his story everywhere?

He shook his head, unable to figure it out, and simply gave up thinking about it.

Meanwhile, Ye Ziyun, sitting in the passenger seat, was experiencing a turbulent emotional state.

Finally, her face filled with shock and amazement, she exclaimed, "I can't believe it really is you! What a coincidence!"

"A coincidence?" Ling Feng didn't understand the meaning of this word at all.

"Did we...know each other before?"

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant!" Ye Ziyun quickly waved her hands.

"My boss is also my best friend. She is a young lady from a wealthy family in Shanghai!"

She told me almost everything about you during our conversations.

"I see!" Ling Feng suddenly realized, finally understanding his previous question.

If Ye Ziyun had a close friend from a wealthy family who knew her background, then everything would make sense.

"By the way, since your best friend mentioned me in your chat, what exactly did she say to you?"

Upon hearing Ling Feng's question, Ye Ziyun immediately looked flustered.

His eyes became evasive: "Ah... this... well... hehe..."

Ye Ziyun stammered, seemingly reluctant to speak, or perhaps embarrassed to say it!

Ling Feng immediately pulled over and stopped the car, staring at her with an unfriendly gaze: "What bad things did you say about me?"

"No...really not!" Ye Ziyun immediately denied it.

"We were just chatting casually, how could we possibly say anything bad about you?"

"Do you think I believe that?"

Seeing that Ling Feng's gaze was becoming increasingly unfriendly, Ye Ziyun couldn't take it anymore.

I had no choice but to confess: "Okay! I admit that I did say some bad things about you to Xiaoyun!"

But that was only a small part; most of the chat content was about standing up for you!

"Xiaoyun? It's Zhou Xiaoyun, right?" Ling Feng felt the name sounded very familiar as soon as he heard it.

Among Chu Lianxin's group of close friends, she was the only one who didn't seem like a delinquent.

Among her group of girlfriends, she had a relatively dignified demeanor, so Ling Feng had a fairly deep impression of her.

The moment Ye Ziyun mentioned her name, her image immediately came to mind.

Sure enough, when Ling Feng called out her name, even Ye Ziyun was visibly stunned.

His tone was filled with surprise: "You...how do you know her too?"

"Nonsense! I saved her life, didn't she tell you that?"

Ye Ziyun looked bewildered, then shook her head repeatedly: "She didn't tell me?"

"Heh...she's probably too embarrassed to say it!" Ling Feng gritted his teeth in anger.

"Because a bunch of idiots went to play Ouija board games back then, and Zhou Xiaoyun was one of them."

Do you think she'd have the nerve to tell everyone about that near-fatal, humiliating experience?

Upon hearing this, Ye Ziyun immediately covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes crinkling with laughter.

"I can now be 100% certain that you are indeed married."

Your wife is none other than Chu Lianxin, the eldest daughter of the Chu Group!

"Alright! Since we're all acquaintances..." Ling Feng said, then restarted the car.

"I won't hold it against you for talking badly about me behind my back!"

Ye Ziyun, however, turned her head with great interest and carefully examined him:

"I never expected that, after all these twists and turns, we would have such a deep connection!"

"Don't try to get close to me, I won't shortchange you a single penny!" Ling Feng immediately interrupted her.

Ye Ziyun was interrupted like this, and she was at a loss for words, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Enraged, she reached out and pinched his arm hard.

"You're really something! We're all on the same side, and you keep bringing up money with me."

"Ouch...be gentle...it hurts! What do you think this is? A big piece of fat...let go of me right now!"

Ling Feng reprimanded Ye Ziyun a couple of times, then stared straight ahead.

His expression remained completely unaffected: "Let me tell you,"

Our friendship is one thing, business is another; the rules must never be broken.
