After hanging up the phone, Ling Zhenfei finally felt relieved. He had no idea what kind of trouble Bai Ling, that lady, would cause if she wasn't looked after properly.

Bai Ling had been very clear about expressing her feelings for him, and in a rather overbearing manner at that—she had even come up with a very creative idea, wanting to be his girlfriend in Provincial City. Ling Zhenfei didn't know what to say.

This time Bai Ling was visiting Binyang, and it wouldn't be over unless she turned the place upside down—Ling Zhenfei always had an uneasy feeling about it.

All the way to the train station, Ling Zhenfei was preoccupied with this issue. Upon arriving, he called Bai Ling, who told him the name of a snack shop, and he drove straight there.

After putting on a mask, sunglasses, and a hat, Ling Zhenfei also entered the snack shop.

As expected, Bai Ling was waiting for him on the ground. As soon as she saw Ling Zhenfei come in, she waved at him. Ling Zhenfei walked up to her and sat down.

At this moment, Bai Ling had ordered a big pile of skewers and was wolfing them down,

It had to be said that among all the girls Ling Zhenfei knew, Bai Ling was the one who understood fashion the best and whose style of dress made Ling Zhenfei feel the most comfortable.

Perhaps it was Bai Ling's style that resonated with Ling Zhenfei, so every time he saw what Bai Ling was wearing, it felt so comfortable, a real feast for the eyes.

"You've ordered so much, can you finish it all?" Ling Zhenfei sat opposite her and naturally picked up a skewer to eat.

Bai Ling started laughing, "I don't care, it's your money anyway. Speaking of which, now that I've come to Binyang, do you have anything to say?"

Ling Zhenfei, not sure what Bai Ling meant, said, "What do you mean? Of course, I would say 'welcome'."

Bai Ling shook her head, "Anything else?"

At that point, Ling Zhenfei really didn't know what to say, "Just be straightforward, I really can't read your mind."

Bai Ling laughed, "Don't pretend—you know you've got a lot of women in Binyang. I came here this time just to take a look."

"Just to take a look?" Ling Zhenfei really wasn't sure if he could trust Bai Ling.

"Haha, it's good that you admit it. You really do have a lot of women around you, no wonder you rejected me. I am actually very curious about what kind of woman could capture your heart."

Upon hearing what Bai Ling said, Ling Zhenfei realized she had been teasing him. He hadn't expected to fall for it—so unguarded.

Since Bai Ling had already guessed, Ling Zhenfei had no intention of hiding anything.

"I was telling you the truth, though I do have a few friends of the opposite sex, none of the relationships have been confirmed, and I don't want to get married now. It's not the right time."

Bai Ling snorted coldly, obviously not believing him, and then asked Ling Zhenfei in a low voice, "Tell me honestly, how many close female friends do you have?"

After hearing that, Ling Zhenfei was taken aback. Bai Ling's way of speaking was a bit too direct.

"Can't you be a bit more reserved and subtle in your speech?"

Bai Ling said with a laugh, "Sorry, missy here doesn't want to be subtle in front of you, I want clarity—I don't like ambiguities."

In his heart, Ling Zhenfei was surprised and felt that Bai Ling's visit was to have a showdown or maybe to negotiate with him.

Giving Bai Ling a once-over, Ling Zhenfei said, "Why do I feel like you've come here with a killing aura? What are your intentions? Just say it."

Bai Ling chuckled, "I have no particular purpose, I just came to Binyang to find you. I've always heard you talk about some villa you've built here, and I wanted to check it out while also having a look at my competitors and see what they actually look like."

By competitors, Bai Ling was obviously referring to the girls who knew Ling Zhenfei. Bai Ling's attitude was somewhat too apparent.

"Are you really just here to look?" Ling Zhenfei asked, somewhat disbelieving.

"Believe it or not, it's up to you. I won't make things difficult for you. Since you haven't committed to any woman, I still have a chance, unless you do commit to one, then don't blame me for not being polite."

A menacing glint appeared in Bai Ling's eyes, and even Ling Zhenfei felt a bit afraid. That was the nature of a woman; the persistence used to achieve their goals could be downright terrifying.

"There's something I'm really curious about, what's so good about me that earns me such high regard from you? What have I done to deserve this?"

Bai Ling snorted coldly and said, "Don't act coy after taking advantage of the situation. I simply like you, and you are mine. If anyone tries to take you away from me, I will fight them to the death. Don't forget what you promised me."

Ling Zhenfei broke into a cold sweat upon hearing this. Bai Ling was truly Boss Hei's sister; normally so graceful and gentle, yet terrifying when she lost her temper.

After filling up on food and drink, the two left the diner and got into Ling Zhenfei's car.

"As the host, now that we're in Binyang, shouldn't you show me around everything that's related to you?" Bai Ling looked at Ling Zhenfei, her curiosity about everything related to him was piqued.

Ling Zhenfei thought for a moment and said, "Alright, then I'll take you for a tour."

After gathering his thoughts, Ling Zhenfei drove towards the restaurant that was undergoing renovation.

Ling Zhenfei's thoughts were quite simple: Bai Ling knew a lot about him and had many ideas about anything and everything, which could prove very useful to him in the future.

Therefore, he didn't hide anything from Bai Ling at all. To him, this was not only a matter of being open and honest, but also a sign of trust in Bai Ling.

Arriving at the restaurant, renovation was in full swing, resembling very much a busy construction site.

Workers were going in and out, and Zhou Tong was supervising inside, holding blueprints and repeatedly checking the ongoing renovation.

When Zhou Tong saw Ling Zhenfei, he hurried over to greet him. His surprise was evident upon laying eyes on Bai Ling; she was exceptionally beautiful and had a star-like presence.

"Boss, good to see you. Is this lady your wife?"

Ling Zhenfei paused, surprised by Zhou Tong's words, and just as he was about to speak, Bai Ling had already preempted him, "Quite the discerning one, definitely a rare talent."

Since Bai Ling had confirmed it, Zhou Tong took it seriously, "The madam flatters me, it's all thanks to Boss's trust, just here to earn a living with the boss."

"What are you on about, Zhou Tong? Just because I say something, you start calling her 'madam'," Ling Zhenfei quickly interjected, attempting to halt the conversation before it could lead to something more.

"But Boss, if the lady admits it, what's there for you to hide?" Zhou Tong said with a smile.

"Cut that out, this is Bai Ling, my manager. None of that 'madam' talk, and don't you dare spread rumors," Ling Zhenfei hurriedly told Zhou Tong, worried that if Zhou Tong spread it around or made a social media post, it could soon turn into a scandal.

"Look at you, Boss. The lady has acknowledged it. But fine, I won't call her 'madam' for now. It's only a matter of time, though," Zhou Tong said.

However, Bai Ling seemed quite pleased and paid no attention to their conversation, instead walking into the construction site to look around.

Even though the restaurant was a mess, it still greatly impressed Bai Ling.
