Chapter 974: Riding the Wind and Asking the Moon-Hateful Little Girl (59)
In front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor of the Xu family’s main hall, Xu Chengfeng was talking on the phone while looking at Zuo Yue, who was chatting and laughing with Little John outside for a long time.
“Boss, the people at the Russian border have started to get restless again. In the past half a month, there have been businessmen who have been killed by us at the Russian border. The number of casualties has already exceeded double digits, and it has been getting worse recently.”
“Have you found out what the other party is?”
“I think it’s the group of firearms thieves that we surrounded last time. They bribed those assassins and fugitives at the Russian border who had never been on our side. Because they couldn’t resist our forces, they could only secretly kill people to attract your attention.”
Xu Chengfeng looked out of the window expressionlessly until Zuo Yue and John Junior had entered the main hall. He slowly turned around and said in a cold and deep voice,””Control the situation around the Russian border. After I deal with a few projects here, I’ll go back and take a look.”
” Boss, you’re already in the process of clearing your name. They’re trying to force you to appear so that you won’t be able to clear your name. If you come back…”
“I’m just going back to take a look. Don’t make a fuss. They can’t do anything to me.”
“.. Those people have probably found out about your movements. I’m worried that if they don’t find out that you’re back at this stage, they’ll turn their attention to the United States.”
Xu Chengfeng did not say anything else. After he hung up the phone, the door to the second floor suddenly opened.
Xu Yuan walked in.” Everyone from the John family is here. Zuo Yue and Little John have returned to the main hall. Let’s go down and have lunch together. Dad is resting in his room now. After all, you’re half the owner of the Xu family. Now that Dad isn’t here, you’re the main owner of the Xu family. It’s time for you to show up and have lunch together.””
“Alright.” Xu Chengfeng replied indifferently. Just as Xu Yuan was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly said,”” Although Zuo Yue is already eighteen years old and no longer a child, if she has yet to have an accurate understanding of her personal feelings and has yet to meet the person she truly likes, you’d better not impose your subjective consciousness on her. That John Junior is not suitable for her.”
Xu Yuan was stunned for a moment. She turned to look at Xu Chengfeng and immediately smiled.”Did the little girl complain to you?”
Xu Chengfeng raised his eyebrows and did not answer.
“Hey, that girl.” Xu Yuan smiled.” I was just joking with her. How could I bear to let my own daughter get married so early? Besides, I’m not in a hurry if she’s not married at the age of 28. Besides, she’s only 18.” Little John is also a childish person. I saw that Zuo Yue seemed to have something on her mind after she came back this time, so I wanted to let the two children talk more together. I didn’t think too much about it. It was Zuo Yue who thought too much.”
“That’s good.” Xu Chengfeng’s eyebrows twitched.”
“What’s wrong? Previously, she didn’t even care about my daughter. She was already impatient to help me take care of her. How long has it been? She’s already concerned about my daughter’s relationship matters?”Xu Yuan asked jokingly.
Xu Chengfeng raised his eyebrows.” There’s a child who is too clingy by my side. I can’t completely look away from him as time passes. It’s inevitable that I have to be more concerned about him.””
“That’s true. Our Zuo Yue is so cute and beautiful. Even you, Chengfeng, must think that she’s pretty cute, let alone other boys. The relationship between uncle and niece will slowly grow stronger.”
Xu Yuan’s original intention was to let him take care of Zuo Yue so that he could have a deeper relationship with his family and the Xu family. Now, it seemed that it was a little more effective.
Xu Chengfeng’s lips curled up slightly because of her words. He snorted and said,””Yes, very cute.”
“So what if she’s cute? What are you snorting for?”Xu Yuan smiled happily.” Let’s go. The dishes are probably already on the table. If you don’t go now, your cute niece will go hungry.””
Xu Chengfeng did not comment on Xu Yuan’s inexplicable motherly love. Zuo Yue’s small appearance was reflected in his mind.
Cute?
She was clearly a hateful little girl.

On the return trip the next day, Ainte didn’t come to be the driver. It seemed that Ainte had something to do and had to stay in Los Angeles for the time being.
Hence, Xu Chengfeng was the one driving the car back while Zuo Yue was sitting in the passenger seat, sleeping and waking up intermittently.
It was mainly because she had run to her mother’s room to sleep last night. Her mother had hugged her and talked to her about her uncle, about his background, and about the mistakes that Grandpa had made more than twenty years ago.
That was why Zuo Yue did not sleep well last night. She had been sleeping non-stop ever since she got into the car.
Xu Chengfeng did not call her either. After sleeping for a long time, she opened her eyes and looked outside. Then, she turned to look at Xu Chengfeng, who was still focused on driving. She suddenly smiled and said,”Uncle, are you tired? Do you want me to drive?”
“No need,” Xu Chengfeng said lightly.
“Are you really not tired? I know how to drive. I have a driver’s license. It’s in my bag, really…”
“How long has it been since you last drove?”
“Well, after I passed the test, I wanted something new. I secretly drove my dad’s car out in the Zuo family’s room, but I only drove it for more than a month and never touched a car again until now.”
Xu Chengfeng looked ahead and said to her in a lukewarm voice,””I can even avoid fatal gunshot wounds. After so many years of bloodshed, I finally managed to save my life. I don’t want to die in your hands.”
Zuo Yue was speechless.
She immediately rolled her eyes at him.” Tsk, are you looking down on me? Even if I haven’t driven for a long time, I’m not a killer on the road. I got straight A’s in all my exams back then.”
Xu Chengfeng did not pay any attention to the ‘Rights’.
Seeing that he did not accompany her on such a boring topic, Zuo Yue felt bored even though she had slept enough. She picked up her phone and casually flipped through it. Suddenly, she turned to look at him.
Yesterday, John Junior said that when Xu Chengfeng sat next to her, he did not really watch the game.
Just because of this, she felt that his feelings for her weren’t that distant, so she quietly turned her phone to him and secretly took a photo of him, wanting to save it.
“I deleted it.”
Just as she was about to turn off the phone screen with a smile, Xu Chengfeng’s cold voice suddenly sounded.
Zuo Yue froze for a moment. She did not expect him to actually discover it. She immediately pursed her lips and said,””I just randomly took a picture. I mainly wanted to take a picture of the scenery outside your car window. You’re blocking my view.”
Xu Chengfeng frowned but did not say anything else. However, it was obvious that he did not like taking photos. He did not like it very much.
However, Zuo Yue was throwing a tantrum now. She found a photoshop software on her phone and opened Xu Chengfeng’s photo. She deliberately began to make a bunch of cute little pictures on his cold face, put cat ears on his head, and made a mustache on his face.
