574: Chapter 574: The Meeting of the Two Women 574: Chapter 574: The Meeting of the Two Women Xiang Yu couldn’t help but look outside; it was indeed very dark, and there were security guards constantly patrolling.

He guessed the girl wasn’t afraid of the dark, but rather afraid of the guards.

She had just been bullied today, so it was understandable that she would be timid upon seeing strange men at night.

At this moment, she inadvertently hindered Xiang Yu’s “good time.”

“Come in,” Xiang Yu said, then walked in first.

The girl stood there without moving, her face flushed red without knowing what to do.

Seeing that the girl hadn’t come in, Xiang Yu stepped back out and asked, “Why aren’t you coming in?”

“Is it, is it appropriate for me?” the girl stammered, feeling sorry for what had just happened.

She knew that barging in like this was wrong and now she was filled with regret.

Xiang Yu knew what she was thinking and directly pulled her in.

Then they both sat down on the sofa from before.

Lan Tingting had stayed in the bathroom for a full ten minutes before finally coming out.

Her face was flushed, and her chubby cheeks looked very charming.

After Lan Tingting came out, she looked at the girl and then at Xiang Yu with suspicion, clearly not understanding the situation.

How did such a beautiful girl appear next to Xiang Yu?

Her heart couldn’t help but tighten; if she felt somewhat embarrassed before, now she started to size up the girl.

There’s an inherent competitive spirit between women.

As Lan Tingting examined the girl, the girl was also looking at Lan Tingting.

They were both very beautiful, each with their distinct qualities.

“Let me introduce you, this is Lan Tingting, and she is…” Xiang Yu began to introduce with a smile, only to suddenly realize he didn’t know the other’s name.

“My name is Cheng Bingbing,” the girl quickly said.

Lan Tingting’s expression wasn’t good, but she forced a smile.

She noticed that the girl was very pretty, in no way inferior to herself, and also younger; she naturally assumed Xiang Yu would like her.

Xiang Yu knew what Lan Tingting was thinking and hurriedly recounted what had happened earlier.

Lan Tingting was kind-hearted.

When she heard that Cheng Bingbing had been bullied, she immediately showed a friendly smile.

She herself had been caught by the bad guys once, and if it hadn’t been for Xiang Yu’s rescue, she wouldn’t know where she would be right now.

“Sister, are you hurt?” Lan Tingting sat down beside Cheng Bingbing and took her hand.

Seeing Lan Tingting’s friendly demeanor, Cheng Bingbing quickly shook her head and said, “I’m okay, thanks to this big brother who saved me.”

After Cheng Bingbing finished, she cast a friendly look at Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu just lowered his head and drank water, not wanting to reveal any emotional colors to this girl.

Women are sensitive, and Lan Tingting was no exception.

Although their relationship was ambiguous, Xiang Yu didn’t want to make her feel uncomfortable.

The three of them made some simple opening remarks and then all fell silent, the atmosphere becoming extremely awkward.

At that point, Cheng Bingbing stood up and said, “I’m going out first, you guys chat.”

After saying that, Cheng Bingbing quickly walked outside, with Lan Tingting making no effort to stay her.

Watching Cheng Bingbing leave, Lan Tingting then looked at Xiang Yu and asked, “What are you planning to do with her?”

Xiang Yu then looked up at Lan Tingting and said, “I’ll send her home and that’s that.”

Lan Tingting seemed very satisfied with that answer, and she asked no more questions.

Then suddenly she stood up, walked over to Xiang Yu, and looped her arm through his, resting her head on his shoulder.

“I feel very happy right now,” Lan Tingting said spontaneously.

Even though Xiang Yu had never promised her anything, she felt that being able to sit quietly with the person she liked was the greatest happiness in the world.

Xiang Yu didn’t speak; he was now a big brother in the underworld, living life on the edge every day, never knowing when he might breathe his last.

Naturally, he couldn’t make any promises to her.

Stroking Lan Tingting’s long hair, Xiang Yu couldn’t help but pick up a strand to sniff it, and it was fragrant.

Often, Xiang Yu wondered what he was doing it all for.

Was it for the mission?

Or did his heart simply enjoy such battlefields?

The night was quiet, and such a life was nothing short of a luxury for Xiang Yu.

He lived amid the blade’s glint and the sword’s shadow every day, with occasional tenderness that he found addictive.

The two of them just snuggled there without speaking until Lan Tingting eventually fell asleep.

A smile hung on her face, a look of deep satisfaction.

Watching her deep in sleep, Xiang Yu too smiled, then gently laid her on the sofa.

It was already eleven o’clock at night; it was time for him to leave.

Xiang Yu stood up, sighed, and then turned and left.

When she woke up and didn’t see Xiang Yu, she would probably think it had all been a dream.

Xiang Yu went outside, gently closed the door, and then went downstairs.

When he reached the car, he didn’t see Cheng Bingbing and tensed up.

He was just about to call out her name when Cheng Bingbing suddenly stood up straight from the other side of the car, grinning at Xiang Yu, “I’m right here.

Were you worried that the bad guys had taken me away?”

Cheng Bingbing seemed much more upbeat, as if she and Xiang Yu were already very familiar.

Xiang Yu helplessly shook his head and then got into the car.

Cheng Bingbing hurried into the car as well, sitting in the back, then leaned over the front seat and giggled, “Sister-in-law is really beautiful, the most beautiful I’ve ever seen.”

Xiang Yu didn’t dwell on this topic and turned slightly, but as he did, his head bumped into Cheng Bingbing’s forehead, bringing about an intimate contact.

“You already have a wife, and yet you’re taking advantage of me,” Cheng Bingbing pouted and smacked Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu couldn’t be bothered to explain, simply saying, “Where do you want to go?

I’ll take you.”

Cheng Bingbing’s face lit up with anticipation, “You must be a big boss, right?

I will stick with you.

Help me find a job.”

After hearing that, Xiang Yu felt another wave of headache while he started the car, shaking his head, “I’ve told you, I’m not a good person, I’m a big bad guy, and you will be at a disadvantage if you follow me.”

But the more Xiang Yu said that, the more Cheng Bingbing believed he was a good person.

She had already decided in her heart to follow this handsome man, not only because he was capable but also because he was a good person.

“I won’t listen, I’ll follow you,” Cheng Bingbing said with determination.

Just then, Xiang Yu’s phone suddenly rang, a call from Shi Jian.

“Are you okay?” Shi Jian’s voice was full of concern.

“I’m fine, what happened?” Xiang Yu quickly asked, sensing from Shi Jian’s tone as if something very important had occurred.

“Gao Leiming’s brother, Gao Leiliang, was beaten, and it’s serious—he’s at death’s door.

The entire city’s underworld is tense now,” Shi Jian reported briefly.

Xiang Yu sensed the gravity of the situation and replied quickly, “Wait for me there; I’ll be right over to talk in person.”

After hanging up, Xiang Yu drove towards Shi Jian’s office.

Cheng Bingbing, sitting in the back and noticing Xiang Yu’s serious expression, finally asked, “Did something happen…?”
