Chapter 480: Chapter 480

At this moment, nobody knew exactly what Lin Zifeng had just done to the bald man, but they saw the bald guy, holding his crotch, his mouth agape, a look of pain contorting his face.

It definitely wasn’t anything good.

"Yo-you, you little punk! Wait, wait for me!" The bald man, jutting out his butt, opening and closing his mouth, could hardly speak due to the intense pain coming from his groin, nearly bringing him to tears and leaving him unable to utter a single word for quite some time.

Especially his face, which had been twisted by the pain, looked just like that of a comedian specializing in cross-talk, extraordinarily expressive.

"What’s, what’s wrong with him?" Nangong Bing shifted her arm.

"It’s nothing. He’s probably just too excited," Lin Zifeng said with an indifferent smile.

"You-you little punk! You..."

As the pain below intensified, the bald man was completely unable to speak.

As everyone knows, the moment your ’Dandan’ gets kicked, it doesn’t hurt much at first. But just wait a couple of minutes, and the delayed intensity of the pain somehow feels like the burn after drinking alcohol. It amplifies to the point where it can make you wish for death, and to the bald man’s frustration, when exactly his ’Dandan’ got kicked remained a mystery...

Seeing their boss suddenly bending over and sticking out his butt, the two subordinates were also dumbfounded, thinking he had some incurable disease from childhood that had just flared up.

It wasn’t until the figure of the bald man gradually disappeared that Nangong Bing snapped out of the unpleasant atmosphere from before. Seeing her hand being held by Lin Zifeng’s warm and larger ones, she suddenly felt her cheeks turn slightly red, and she hurriedly shook it off in embarrassment.

But the guy didn’t seem to think anything of it and continued holding her smooth hand, completely oblivious.

"Can you, can you let go...?" Nangong Bing opened her lips slightly but was too embarrassed to pull away her arm directly.

"What’s wrong?" Lin Zifeng didn’t quite understand.

"Can you let go of me first?" Nangong Bing’s eyes, shimmering with droplets of light, pleaded.

"Uh, sure," Lin Zifeng let go promptly and chuckled.

Once released, Nangong Bing seemed a bit embarrassed by the atmosphere, keeping her pretty cheeks down and not speaking, her delicate arms repeatedly touching her own arms.

But inside, she was thinking: Lin, why aren’t you talking? You’re normally so talkative. Why have you gone silent all of a sudden? This is making me very uncomfortable. Just start talking, and I’ll follow your lead in the conversation.

With pretty, apricot-colored cheeks, Nangong Bing felt so awkward she didn’t know where to look, and they both sat there, neither starting the conversation.

It wasn’t until the stall owner brought up several plates of hot stir-fried dishes that the awkward atmosphere between them began to ease.

"Come on, boss, I’ve grown up eating the food here, and I assure you the taste is top-notch. It might not compare to those five-star hotels, but you’ll definitely be satisfied," he encouraged.

"Do you think I’m that delicate?" Nangong Bing shot him a sidelong glance, expressing her displeasure. In her view, what she ate was not important; what mattered most was the mood.

"I was just worried you might not be used to it, so I made sure to ask first. Otherwise, if you just left, who would I eat with?" he explained.

"Enough with the chatter. Can’t the food shut you up?" Nangong Bing gave him another look, her coquettish demeanor momentarily disarming Lin Zifeng.

"Hey, boss, want some beer or something?"

Nangong Bing asked, her impression being that places stall didn’t really serve any drinkable beer.

"Boss, bring some draft beer!" Before Nangong Bing could react, Lin Zifeng quickly stood up and called out to the stall owner.

"Drink beer?" The very thought made Nangong Bing feel a chill all over.

"Yes, it’s sweltering, and what’s a meal at a food stall without some beer? Are we supposed to drink something non-alcoholic?"

"But... can you actually drink this kind of liquor?" Nangong Bing looked thoughtfully with her captivating almond eyes. If it were the old her, she would never have set foot in such a place to dine with Lin Zifeng, let alone drink alcohol.

Raised in luxury, she occasionally sipped on fine wine when leisure allowed, but she had never tasted spirits or beer.

"Of course, you can drink it. Have you really never tried it before?" Lin Zifeng’s forehead was slick with sweat. Surely she couldn’t have missed out on something as common as beer, could she?

"No," Nangong Bing shook her head. A breeze at the entrance of the food stall caressed her light veil, casting a few strands of her black hair over her face. Her naturally elegant demeanor stood out in stark contrast to the down-to-earth surroundings, like an Immortal alighting in the mortal world.

"You can’t be serious? Boss, come on, you can’t be playing with me ," Lin Zifeng pretended to frown, signaling disbelief in her words.

"I told you, if I haven’t drunk it, I haven’t. Believe it or not," Nangong Bing’s aloof nature surfaced in an instant.

"Well, alright, if you’ve never drunk it, today I’ll let you taste what beer is like. I guarantee you’ll want more after you’ve tried it."

"Not even a bit curious?" Lin Zifeng asked.

"Is this kind of thing even drinkable?"

"What do you mean is this kind of thing drinkable? I’ve been drinking it since I came of age eighteen years ago, and even the post-’90s kids are drinking it now. It’s not like it kills them."

"Really?" Nangong Bing’s expression turned serious as she contemplated the large bottle of draft beer on the table.

Despite her high standards for life and work, the stronger a woman like Nangong Bing was, the fiercer her competitive spirit tended to be.

And her curiosity was much stronger than that of an average woman.

"Why don’t you give it a try and see?"

Lin Zifeng shrugged helplessly and started eating his meal voraciously, regardless of whether she chose to drink or not.

Watching him eat as if he were resurrected from starvation, Nangong Bing was deeply hesitant about whether or not to take a sip of the beer.

But seeing Lin Zifeng boldly eating and drinking,

Even a lady with her refined image began to feel tempted.

Nangong Bing swallowed hard and, mustering all her courage, she finally downed a glass of beer.

"How is it? Tasty?" Lin Zifeng asked with a grin.

"Mm, it’s not bad," Nangong Bing tasted it over and over, and surprisingly, she actually found the beer quite delightful.

After one sip, to Lin Zifeng’s amazement,

She went on to have another glass.

One glass led to another, and it seemed she truly got hooked, one after another.

She drank five large glasses of beer! Imagine the concept; five large glasses equaled at least one and a half bottles of liquor.

If it were anyone else drinking that much, Lin Zifeng wouldn’t think much of it, but it was quite something to see Nangong Bing guzzle that much.

And she seemed to have this urge to keep on drinking.
