Shortly after Lin Zhenzhen left, Bai Qingfeng also went out.
Three hours passed, and the two were still nowhere to be seen.
What can a lone man and woman do when they're alone on this desolate mountain for so long?
Anger grew and entangled in Tan Bei's mind like vines, and he stared at the charcoal fire in his hand with a crazed look in his eyes.
When Lin Zhenzhen returned with her dog, Tan Bei reached out and stopped her.
What did you go to do?
She frowned and replied, "Walking the dog."
But Tan Bei glanced at her skirt and shirt and said sarcastically, "You've wrinkled your clothes from walking the dog, and you've been rolling around on the ground with the dog too?"
Lin Zhenzhen frowned, her tone unfriendly.
"What, do I need to report to you about anything I do?"
He suddenly reached behind Lin Zhenzhen, took a fallen leaf, and his face was terribly gloomy.
"How did this come about?"
Lin Zhenzhen was too lazy to explain to him and went around him into the room.
[Congratulations, host! Thanks to your tireless efforts, Ning Zhen's "spoiled brat" attribute has been fully developed, and her "simp" attribute has ten points remaining.]
Finally, she no longer had to play the role of this spoiled and unruly princess. Before Lin Zhenzhen could even exhale a long breath, she heard the system continue.
[Just a heads up, the male lead is currently experiencing both high levels of attraction and jealousy towards you, which might lead to a strong possessive streak. Be careful!]
This "~" is quite clever. How could he possibly arrest himself and lock him in a dark room?
The next few days were a comfortable vacation for Lin Zhenzhen, who was like a lazy bum, sleeping, eating, playing, and occasionally dragging Bai Qingfeng to practice fighting with her when she remembered.
Most of the time, Ning Xiong would offer a token gesture, encouraging Tan Bei to go out with them more often, saying that young people should be more energetic.
However, Tanbei usually doesn't participate in the activities of the two of them, and just stays quietly by himself.
When others look at him, they will find that he always has a gentle and humble smile on his face, as if he is wearing an invisible mask.
Lin Zhenzhen took advantage of this time to fully display her "simp" attributes, and when the system notification sounded, she immediately felt relieved.
I never want to be a simp again in this life!
On their last day on the mountain, the three of them went to the summit of Qinglang Peak.
Ultraman was foolishly chasing butterflies on the slope, while Lin Zhenzhen, wearing a floral dress and a sun hat, sat side by side with Bai Qingfeng on the grass.
A gentle breeze blew by, stirring up ripples of grass.
Bai Qingfeng picked a bunch of wildflowers from somewhere and handed them to her.
"I only found out yesterday that Ji Leng has also been on the mountain recently. Luckily you didn't run into him, otherwise there would have been another conflict."
It seems that Bai Qingfeng was unaware that the two had met on their very first day, and that he had even "kindly" taught her the principles of being a good person.
I originally thought that Ji Leng would definitely make a scene, given her personality, but I didn't expect her to be so quiet and well-behaved.
Tan Bei was sitting in the pavilion next to him, as handsome as a statue.
He held the drawing board in one hand and swung his pencil rapidly in the other.
"What are you drawing?" Lin Zhenzhen pulled his drawing paper from behind her back and saw that it was a blue sky, white clouds, and green grass. It turned out to be a boring landscape painting.
She tossed it back at him, then suddenly had a brilliant idea and said, "Why don't you draw a portrait of me and Brother Bai?"
As she spoke, she put her arm around Bai Qingfeng's arm, leaned her head against his shoulder, and gave him a bright smile.
Lin Zhenzhen saw Tan Bei's fingers tighten for a moment as he lowered his head, a strand of hair falling down to perfectly obscure his eyes.
Then Tanbei smiled somewhat embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I'm not good at drawing people."
Just as Lin Zhenzhen was about to speak, Bai Qingfeng stopped her.
"Don't make things difficult for Xiao Bei. If you want a portrait of both of us, I'll have someone paint one for us when we get back."
Lin Zhenzhen readily agreed, and secretly made a face at Tan Bei.
Just then, a phone call came in, and Bai Qingfeng hung up with a somewhat anxious expression.
"Zhenzhen, there's been a problem at the company, I need to go down the mountain to deal with it."
He then asked Tan Bei, "Please take good care of Zhenzhen for me."
Tan Bei stood up and silently watched him leave.
Lin Zhenzhen, who was ahead, sighed.
"Brother Bai is always so busy. I wish he could always be with me."
Tan Bei's smile vanished completely, and his unfathomable eyes now gleamed with a cold light.
"Do you really like Bai Qingfeng that much?"
"Of course!"
Lin Zhenzhen turned around abruptly, "Besides my father, the man I love most in my life is Brother Bai."
[Jealousy level 14/20, Host, I can't help but spoil it for you: the Bai family company's network firewall has a problem, and it's the male lead's doing.]
Lin Zhenzhen lowered her eyes slightly.
Are the consequences serious?
The male lead didn't go all out, but the Bai family's losses are estimated to exceed one million.
She didn't press the matter further.
"Do you really know him?" Tan Bei suddenly blurted out. After his eyebrows relaxed, he looked gentle, harmless, and non-aggressive, but the provocative meaning in his words was so strong.
Bai Qingfeng did indeed hide something from Ning Zhen. The Bai family had always wanted to seek long-term cooperation with the Ning family, and Bai's father had even urged him to propose to Ning Zhen as soon as possible so that they could fully enjoy the resources belonging to the Ning family.
However, for some reason, Bai Qingfeng never brought up this matter.
"What do you mean?" Lin Zhenzhen looked at him incredulously. "Are you trying to smear Brother Bai?"
Her voice attracted the Doberman nearby, and Ultraman immediately swooped down to her side, barking nervously at Tanbei.
Tan Bei glanced coldly at the dog, and that one glance was enough to shut it up.
Ultraman let out a few whimpers and shrank back.
He didn't answer, but just kept getting closer.
Lin Zhenzhen retreated with his steps until she had nowhere left to retreat, and then she plopped down on a seat in the pavilion.
"What exactly do you want to do...?"
Tan Bei suddenly leaned over and sealed her lips with a precise and swift kiss.
This was not a fleeting kiss; Lin Zhenzhen was unaware that Tan Bei's technique was so superb.
Her hands were pinned to the pillar by the other party, and she was unable to move.
Time stood still in that second. Lin Zhenzhen forgot to resist, forgot to struggle, and even forgot to breathe.
Her neck was stiff, and her eyes were wide open.
Looking out from Tanbei's shoulder, a green dragonfly takes off, lands, and takes off again.
The sunlight around the dragonfly created a colorful halo, and gradually, she began to feel dizzy and lightheaded.
The man pinched her waist, using his energy to remind her.
"Inhale."
Inhale?
Lin Zhenzhen snapped out of her daze, bent her right knee, and suddenly lifted it upwards, aiming straight for Tan Bei's lower abdomen.
He didn't dodge; he took the blow head-on.
Tan Bei gave a soft hum and finally released Lin Zhenzhen.
Beneath the crimson glint at the corner of his eyes, there was clearly the ecstatic pleasure of a wild beast after its meal.
