The King of Urban Mercenaries
Chapter 45 - 45 45 Two Women Touched

45: Chapter 45: Two Women Touched 45: Chapter 45: Two Women Touched “Mr.

Lin, humanity is now powerless to stop your shamelessness.”

It was just too much, too shameless!

Shen Peini was filled with indignant shame.

If it weren’t for Ling Weiwei’s presence, she really would have liked to rush up and bite Lin Fei twice.

Even with Shen Peini’s mature and intellectual mind, she didn’t know how to handle herself anymore.

This time, Shen Peini felt as embarrassed as if she had lost face all the way to her grandmother’s house.

“Trying to steal a chicken only to lose the rice for it; serves you right!”

And at that very moment, Ling Weiwei couldn’t help but slightly curl her lips, taunting Shen Peini under her breath.

One was her old nemesis, and the other was a lifesaving benefactor who she just started to feel positively about not long ago.

Initially, Ling Weiwei’s heart seemed to shatter when she first heard that Shen Peini was Lin Fei’s lover.

Although the turn of events further highlighted Lin Fei’s shameless nature, it also indirectly revealed that there was no amorous relationship between Lin Fei and Shen Peini.

Somehow, Ling Weiwei’s mood suddenly lifted, and uncharacteristically, she did not condemn Lin Fei for his shamelessness.

Right there and then, Ling Weiwei became furious.

After a series of setbacks that evening, her emotions were already unstable; she couldn’t stand Shen Peini’s provocation.

“Lin Fei, come here.”

Lin Fei looked innocent.

It wasn’t his fault that these two women were quarreling; why did they always have to drag him into it?

Alas, even if he was the culprit, he couldn’t just come out and say it.

“I told you to come here.”

Seeing Lin Fei standing still with a look of grievance and no intention of moving, Ling Weiwei couldn’t resist deepening her tone.

Damn it, fine, if I have to die, so be it.

Seeing that his beautiful department manager was about to blow her top, Lin Fei had no choice but to grimace and walk towards Ling Weiwei.

Meanwhile, he didn’t forget to turn back and glare at Shen Peini, that woman was just too restless.

“I mean, Ms.

Ling, you can’t just do whatever she says…”

“Cut the crap and look at me!”

What does that mean?

“Just look when I tell you to look, otherwise, you’re in for it when we get to the company tomorrow.”

Ling Weiwei glared at Lin Fei with a mix of annoyance and embarrassment, speaking in a low voice that carried a tinge of anger.

“Lin Fei, take me home!”

With a cold snort, Ling Weiwei, feeling her pride immensely wounded, decided to retreat first.

“Why should Lin Fei take you home?

He was delayed coming to rescue you, and that already made us miss our dinner time.

Ms.

Ling, you really should be more considerate of your subordinates.

It’s after work hours, and a capable person like you can go home on your own.

We’re going to enjoy a candlelit dinner.

Little brother, come with me.”

“How come I never realized before that Ms.

Ling could be so unreasonable too?”

“And I always thought that Ms.

Shen was a dignified, gracious lady of good character.”

Watching the two women start their confrontation again, Lin Fei really felt like his head was going to explode.

Grandma’s legs, why can’t they just get along?

There’s a hotel nearby; we could all go there, get a room, and have a heart-to-heart on the bed, do some exercises beneficial for human reproduction, and it would all be good.

Just as Lin Fei was wondering who to send home first, his phone suddenly rang.

Not many people knew Lin Fei’s mobile number, and even fewer would call him late at night.

When Lin Fei checked his phone, he was momentarily stunned.

The person calling wasn’t some random acquaintance—it was the boss of the two women arguing in front of him, his nominal wife, Mu Shanshan.

Caught between two women and unsure of which to choose, his own wife called at this moment, making things even more out of control.

“Hello, wife, what’s up?

Calling so late.”

Lin Fei didn’t lower his voice; he intended to use the call to quell the quarrel between Shen Peini and Ling Weiwei.

Just as expected, as soon as he spoke, both women instantly quieted down, their gazes involuntarily turning towards Lin Fei, their eyes filled with an indescribable expression.

“Aunty Lan has made dinner, come home to eat.”

After saying that, Mu Shanshan hung up the phone.

If it weren’t for the unusually cold tone, Lin Fei would really doubt whether the person on the other end was Mu Shanshan.

“Well, my wife wants me home for dinner, so I’ll take my leave first.” Although Lin Fei couldn’t understand why his icy wife would suddenly call him home for dinner, he would rather go home than be caught between two women at odds, and thus offend neither.

He said this and didn’t wait for a response from either woman, just turned and walked away.

After a few steps, Lin Fei suddenly turned back and said in a serious tone, “Let’s pretend nothing happened tonight, and don’t mention it to anyone!”

Watching Lin Fei’s receding figure, a faint sense of loss spread through Shen Peini’s heart.

Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of Ling Weiwei, who was also quietly observing Lin Fei’s departing figure.

From Ling Weiwei, she sensed an emotion almost identical to her own and involuntarily softened her voice, “Ms.

Ling, if you don’t mind, why not stay at my place for the night?”

“If you don’t think I’ll be a bother, I’d be happy to.”

Ling Weiwei hesitated at Shen Peini’s invitation but then accepted.

First, she really didn’t have any money for a taxi, and second, Ling Weiwei wanted to pry some information about her and Lin Fei from Shen Peini.

If possible, Ling Weiwei also wanted to take this opportunity to smooth things over with Shen Peini, despite their several past confrontations.

Unbeknownst to her, Shen Peini harbored the same thoughts.

For Ling Weiwei wasn’t the only one to develop a favorable impression of Lin Fei that night; Shen Peini felt the same.
