Standing Next To You-Chapter 313: Don’t come looking for me

Lin Fei was stunned by Bei Sangyun’s fierce glare. Then he laughed.

"You must really like him a lot, huh? You’re not even hiding it. Cousin sister, we really are too alike. I don’t like hiding things and...sharing things." Lin Fei leaned forward and said in a low, threatening voice.

"No matter how broken a toy is, as long as it’s mine, no one can play around with it," Lin Fei replied with a smile. His peach blossom eyes were attractive, but his cold smile gave an eerie feeling.

Bei Sangyun pushed his face away in irritation. "You can’t touch Fei Chuan. I’m serious, Lin Fei."

Lin Fei blinked. It had been a long time since Bei Sangyun called him by his name. It felt strange.

Lin Fei’s threatening aura suddenly disappeared. He smiled cheekily. "I told you it’s ’Big Brother.’ Anyway, Fei Chuan seems fishy. So be careful playing around with him."

As Bei Sangyun expected, Lin Fei had already investigated Fei Chuan. He sure was quick.

"Unlike you, I don’t find fun in playing around with people. I’m serious about Fei Chuan; he’s my boyfriend."

Clang!

Bei Sangyun glanced at the source of the sound and found the tray circling on the ground. Butler Xin was standing there with his mouth dropped open.

"Y-your what?!" Butler Xin exclaimed in shock.

Maid Ye Zhai, who was not far away, also heard Bei Sangyun’s statement. She was shocked as well, but not as surprised as Butler Xin.

She clapped her hands and gave her sincere greeting, "This must be the good news you were talking about. Congratulations, Young Miss. You’ve done well."

Lin Fei was also stunned. He looked at Bei Sangyun left and right, trying to see if the person in front of him was really Bei Sangyun.

"What happened to you? I was only gone for two months, but you changed so much. No, this isn’t just a simple change. Could it be you are not Bei Sangyun?"

Bei Sangyun pushed his face away again.

Was it really that big of a deal to get a boyfriend? The past her was too serious and dull to see a sparkling gem in front of her. Fei Chuan was so handsome, so smart, so capable, and loyal. She should have chased after him and made him her husband. ƒreewebɳovel.com

Fortunately, she had returned and could make it happen.

"Your boyfriend... Tsk. Tsk. You are actually worse than me. At least I don’t put a label on my relationships and make the other person hope for nothing. May I remind you again that we can’t have that kind of relationship as a Lin?" Lin Fei began to nag. "If Grandfather found out about this, you might get kicked out."

Butler Xin finally came to his senses and ran towards Bei Sangyun. He grabbed her shoulders and shook her, "Young Miss! Please don’t be swayed by that face! Remember your goals and aspirations!"

Unlike Lin Fei, Butler Xin knew Bei Sangyun’s position and the path she would take inside the Lin family. He knew that Bei Sangyun had the ability to reject any fiancé thrown her way by Headmaster Lin.

But to have that boy- a half Fei and half Chuan, who has low status and was considered eyesores to the two influential and wealthy families,- as Bei Sangyun’s chosen partner would be like jumping into scorching fire!

"Please, Young Miss, think about it carefully. Don’t dig your own grave!"

"Butler Xin, calm down. You’re making my head hurt." Bei Sangyun was getting dizzy with all the shaking, but Butler Xin seemed like he wouldn’t stop until Bei Sangyun agreed.

Bei Sangyun’s patience was dwindling fast. She braced herself and headbutted Butler Xin. "Can’t you see we have a visitor here? Calm down!"

"Oww!" Butler Xin let go of Bei Sangyun and held his aching forehead. But this made him calm down.

Right, Lin Fei was here. He made such a ruckus and acted like no one was around. His strange actions might have slipped up something and might have caused Lin Fei to notice something.

"I apologize for letting my emotions get out of control. But Young Miss, Young Master Lin Fei is right. As an heir contender, you can’t have an official relationship without the approval of Headmaster Lin."

Bei Sangyun was now growing irritated. Butler Xin knew well her situation, yet he was still saying this. She gave him a sidelong glance, "Since your emotions seem to be out of control, I think you need a rest. We will talk about this later."

Butler Xin wanted to say many things, but an outsider was here, and he couldn’t act like his usual self. He looked at Bei Sangyun pleadingly.

Bei Sangyun was stubborn and gestured for him to leave this matter.

Butler Xin was defeated. He bowed his head dejectedly and left.

Lin Fei watched Butler Xin leave with a sly smile. It was too late to hide. He had already noticed the change in Butler Xin and in the entire third branch. It seemed that his cousin sister was holding the reins in this place.

How interesting.

"I don’t need your opinion either." Bei Sangyun’s words took his attention back to her.

"Well, you are a smart girl. You should know what things will benefit you or not." Lin Fei shrugged. Seeing Bei Sangyun like this, he realized that she was really serious about this boy.

"Anyway, I came here for another matter."

Bei Sangyun looked at him solemnly.

"Lin Zhe arrived in the country. I don’t know what he found. But if he found what I found, you will have a hard time soon." Lin Fei lowered his voice, wanting to appear mysterious. "You and your little friends should be prepared."

Bei Sangyun understood his warning. She smirked. "That’s all? That’s what got you worried?"

Lin Fei looked into her eyes, a bit surprised. It looked like Bei Sangyun knew already. Or perhaps she had expected this.

"Instead of worrying about others, you should worry about yourself first. I heard you stole some of his dealings abroad. If Big Brother Lin Zhe wasn’t busy with the fourth branch, he would have won all the deals."

Lin Fei’s eyes gleamed coldly at the mention of Lin Zhe, then he burst into laughter. This little girl had really grown up. She knew now how to play and provoke him.

He gave Bei Sangyun a cold smile. "I have warned you. Well, if you become homeless, you are always welcome to come to the second branch."

"Too bad, you are not welcome in the third branch."

Lin Fei laughed. How feisty. Some things changed, but this aspect of her never does.

"Alright. I won’t keep wasting your time. Have a good rest, cousin sister." Lin Fei was shaking his head with a chuckle as he walked away.

When he was about to step out of the door, Bei Sangyun suddenly called him.

"Lin Fei."

Lin Fei paused and glanced back at her with a questioning look in his eyes.

"You...are not on drugs, are you?"

Lin Fei: "...."

It took him a moment to understand her question. His expression suddenly turned sour, as if he had just heard a ridiculous joke.

"I might act crazy sometimes, but I am not on drugs, you brat."

Bei Sangyun examined his face then nodded.

Seeing her like this, Lin Fei became more irritated. Why did it feel like Bei Sangyun had the impression that he was using illegal substances? What made her think that? That was really offensive.

"That kind of thing is bad. So stay out of it," Lin Fei added.

Bei Sangyun nodded. "Make sure you remember what you said."

Lin Fei: "...."

Now, this little brat had gone beyond provoking him. He rolled his eyes and gave up. It was better not to argue with this brat.

"Lin Fei."

"What now?!"

Bei Sangyun ignored his irritation and stared at him solemnly. "For both of our sakes, don’t come looking for me again. I am not your toy. You are not my big brother. I would appreciate it if you treated me like you treat others."

Lin Fei was taken aback. That came out of nowhere.

Bei Sangyun turned to the other butler. "Please escort Young Master Lin Fei out."

Lin Fei left the third branch’s building. He tilted his head in wonder.

What was that about?
