However, the conversation could not begin.
Bang bang!
A violent knocking on the door directly interrupted the harmonious atmosphere between the two, and Lin Yilin's eyes turned towards the door.
"What's going on?" Zheng Fan asked.
"Troublemakers are here," Lin Yilin calmly replied, "Please let me go see."
Zheng Fan paused, not continuing to forcefully control Lin Yilin's body.
Lin Yilin could move again, but she glanced at the mirror and found that some of the physical changes from Zheng Fan possessing her still existed, knowing that Zheng Fan had only given up control of her body but had not left her.
Seemingly in a daze for a moment, she still crumpled the talisman paper in her hand and put it away, not rashly going to open the door.
"Coming, who is it?" Lin Yilin said as she opened the door.
As soon as the door opened a crack, it was kicked by the person outside. Lin Yilin reacted quickly and immediately retreated, thus avoiding being directly kicked down.
"So slow to open the door, really bad at doing business. Do you still want to run an office?" Several hooligan-like youths walked directly in from outside.
They looked exactly like street thugs, each holding an iron rod, with dyed hair and plenty of metal accessories on their faces. Normal people would avoid them on the street.
"The door wasn't locked anyway, did you have to make me open it?" Lin Yilin looked at them expressionlessly, not scared at all, and even felt a bit speechless.
"The customer is God!"
"Then I'll immediately go to Banmu Office and tell them to kick you out," Lin Yilin quickly retorted.
These people were stunned for a moment, and finally could only curse simply and directly: "Damn it!"
"Heh, although Big Brother told us not to trouble you privately, that's only because Big Brother gave some face to your old man who just died. We don't coddle you, little sister. I advise you to close this shop and go back to your studies. An office isn't something you can handle." The leading youth was aggressive, tapping the iron rod on the floor.
Lin Yilin replied, "Early this morning you guys had someone graffiti on my signboard. Can you stop doing such childish things? Although the office is a bit close, it's just me now, and there's no conflict of interest with Banmu Office. How old are you? Be more mature. Isn't it just that I pointed out a few mistakes at the crime scene before..."
Thump!
The leading youth trembled with anger, and before she could finish, he smashed the rod on the ground.
"This floor is quite old. If you do that, it'll be hard for me to explain to the landlord..." Lin Yilin's mouth didn't stop at all, completely unfazed by the other party.
"Enough, you few, stand guard at the door. If I don't knock out a few of her teeth, I really can't stand it anymore," the youth declared.
The others who followed quickly responded and went out, leaving the youth and two others.
After closing the door, the younger brother standing outside said, "Who is that woman? She made Fei Ge so angry."
"Shh, don't talk nonsense. If he hears us, we'll get beaten too. Fei Ge doesn't care about cherishing women; he beats women just the same. Poor girl, she's probably going to get a few more scars."
Bang!
As soon as the words fell, the door was directly shattered, and a figure "whoosh" flew out from between the two who were whispering and landed on the street, sliding for a distance before stopping.
Looking closely, wasn't it their Fei Ge?
Several white objects lay on the ground, seemingly teeth. As for whose they were, it was self-evident.
Inside the unlit room, in the shadows untouched by sunlight, the girl's seemingly slender figure was like a beast. It was then that they noticed her unusual grey eyes glowing with a strange light.
Easily bending the iron rod in her hand and tossing it aside, "Lin Yilin's" face had a smile for the first time, a somewhat unrestrained smile with a huge contrast to her previous coldness: "Fighting?"
Fighting my ass.
The remaining two people were dumbfounded; they hadn't even seen clearly, and Fei Ge had already flown out.
The violence index was off the charts!
They ran without hesitation.
When they left, they didn't forget to pick up their Fei Ge and leave together, which was considered loyal.
Zheng Fan did not chase. He couldn't chase. Although he had momentarily gained control by following Lin Yilin's instant annoyance, he was quickly suppressed again.
This girl's self-control is quite remarkable. He felt like he had encountered a rather extraordinary "host."
That's good, otherwise, if he ran into some hot-blooded silly kid, he'd be too lazy to be a babysitter.
"What did you do?" Lin Yilin stared blankly ahead, muttering.
"Hmm? Weren't you trying to use me to stand up for you? Consider this a trial run. No need to thank me," Zheng Fan said casually.
"My door..."
"Ah, this."
At this moment, an elderly woman dressed simply poked her head in the doorway: "Xiao Lin, I heard a bit of noise over here just now. What is this...?"
Under Lin Yilin's strong intention, Zheng Fan did not interfere.
Lin Yilin quickly stepped forward and bowed her head: "I'm sorry, Aunt Chen, I'll pay for the door!"
...
"I can handle these small fries myself. Your intervention was really... overkill," Lin Yilin said as she walked on the road.
Hmm, her self-control is indeed very strong.
Zheng Fan confirmed this. She had the urge to curse just now but held it back, so he said, "According to the plot development just now, it would have been impolite if I hadn't intervened. Besides, I was able to act because you gave me an opportunity."
"Flies don't bite seamless eggs, is that it?" Lin Yilin lightly touched her forehead, "That's my problem for not controlling my emotions well, no wonder. Forget it, anyway, I need to find a new door first. That old lady just now was Aunt Chen, the landlord, a friend of my foster father. She's very good to me, so try not to cause her trouble."
"Mhm, mhm," Zheng Fan responded casually, following Lin Yilin and observing the surrounding streets.
Judging solely from the current scenery, Dadu's Grey District was no different from the modern cities in Zheng Fan's impression.
"Did you mean before that you agreed to help me?" At this moment, Lin Yilin asked softly again.
Zheng Fan straightened his lower body, bending his upper body with astonishing flexibility, tilting his head as if to peek under a roadside girl's skirt: "I don't care, let's just try it out during the trial period. Although I still haven't figured out the situation."
He seemed to take it very seriously before, but then suddenly agreed so casually.
Lin Yilin's eye twitched as she looked at him: "Do you like being perverted?"
Zheng Fan straightened up, turned his head and thought for a moment: "Not particularly. Compared to lower body stimulation, I still prefer the feeling of hitting people just now."
Lin Yilin: "..."
Then what were you doing just now?
"If I've become like this, wouldn't it feel like a loss not to do something like that? It's like checking in at a tourist attraction. Life is about daring to try; it's quite fun." Zheng Fan responded to Lin Yilin's thoughts as if reading her mind, saying with an air of composure.
Looking at him, he didn't really seem like that kind of pervert.
But he did do something very perverted!
Lin Yilin narrowed her eyes: "What color was that lady just now?"
"Safety shorts, very safety-conscious, commendable. What about you?"
"Blue."
"Remember to wear safety shorts in the future. I don't care, but when I use your body, I won't care about accidental exposure or anything like that," Zheng Fan replied nonchalantly.
"Okay."
The two walked along, chatting about strange topics.
