Bai Feifei resentfully said, "Even if you want a permanent solution, must it be this way? Could it be..."

Pausing for a moment, Bai Feifei, with a shy tone, said, "Could it be that you can't rely on me for once?"

With the power of the Bai Family, if they really wanted to protect Ling Feng, the Taizi Club and the United Hearts Gang wouldn't dare to act arrogantly.

Gently stroking Bai Feifei's hair, Ling Feng said, "Because I am a man, even if relying is involved, it should be you relying on me! I can't always be under your protection, right?"

Bai Feifei, with her head lowered, murmured, "If possible, I actually hope to protect you forever!"

But Bai Feifei also knew that if Ling Feng really became like that, would she still like him as she does now?

In fact, Bai Feifei could understand Ling Feng's choice, but what she resented was, why did Ling Feng keep it a secret from her! All she wanted was an explanation and an apology.

Now that Ling Feng had explained everything clearly, the resentment in Bai Feifei's heart had also dissipated.

Seeing the anger on Bai Feifei's face fade away, Ling Feng smiled and said, "In this world, it's not always clear what's right and wrong. As long as we stick to our principles and remain unmoved by external influences, what does it matter if we dwell in darkness? Recall the old Mr. Du, though he was a mafia boss, he devoted himself to the resistance war. Who are we to judge him now?"

"Moreover," Ling Feng said, "once this matter ends, I will gradually distance myself from Flame Hall. After all, I desire a simple life. The so-called power and influence no longer allure me!"

Hearing Ling Feng's words, Bai Feifei's eyes brightened, "That would be best!"

Checking the time, Ling Feng cautiously said, "Since everything is fine now, can I leave? The... Chen Ningxue's concert is about to start!"

Bai Feifei pursed her lips and said, "What's so interesting about Chen Ningxue's concert?"

Ling Feng, feeling slightly embarrassed, said, "Chen Ningxue is my friend after all, and moreover, I have an arrangement with Ting Yu today..."

"It's always the official girlfriend that counts!" Bai Feifei said bitterly, "And here I am, growing tiresome for you after just a short while!"

Ling Feng grimaced bitterly. What official girlfriend? Could she not hear the undertone in her words?

"Let's go, if I keep holding onto you without letting go, you won't know how to blame me in your heart!" Bai Feifei, grasping Ling Feng's hand, said, "I'll take you there!"

Speeding along the highway, Bai Feifei managed to reach the stadium just five minutes before the concert began.

"Feifei, thank you!" Ling Feng smiled, "Why don't you join me?"

Initially, Ling Feng had just mentioned it casually, but unexpectedly Bai Feifei's eyes lit up, "Sure, sure, that will be perfect for me to see who Liu Tingyu is, the person who actually outshone Bai Feifei. I need to learn a lesson from her!"

Ling Feng was stunned. He had only been polite, right?

But since he had already spoken, Ling Feng had no choice but to take Bai Feifei into the stadium. Fortunately, Ling Feng had a few tickets on him; before entering, he randomly gave the remaining tickets to several other couples, earning quite a bit of goodwill from strangers.

Fengchao Stadium is the largest and most luxurious stadium in Yanjing. Only top-tier stars, kings, and queens of music, can hold their concerts here.

Although Chen Ningxue was dubbed the little queen of music, she was relatively new to the scene. Being able to hold a concert here was actually leveraging the influence of Miss Chen from the Chen Family.

The stadium that could accommodate tens of thousands of people was already packed, and the VIP seats offered the best view of the entire concert, plus these seats were enclosed by barriers, grouped in eights, dividing the VIP area into little sections, much like open private booths.

They found where Liu Tingyu was seated; she was already chatting and laughing with Yun Hanrui!

"Where are the others?" Ling Feng asked with a smile as he approached.

Liu Tingyu's eyes curved into a smile, "They're in other booths, and this is …"

When she spotted Bai Feifei behind Ling Feng, a look of suspicion flashed across her face.

"This is a friend of mine, Bai Feifei!" Ling Feng said, introducing her with a smile, "She's actually the deputy chief of the Yanjing Criminal Police Team. She took over that case we had later on."

Ling Feng felt it was inappropriate to mention his relationship with Bai Feifei under these circumstances.

"Sister Feifei, nice to meet you!" Liu Tingyu extended her hand generously, "Thanks for your help with the previous incident!"

Bai Feifei looked at Liu Tingyu but did not shake her hand, making the moment somewhat awkward!

Yun Hanrui and Zheng Xinyi's gazes shifted over, puzzled by Bai Feifei's refusal to acknowledge Liu Tingyu.

Despite the situation, Bai Feifei's face showed no signs of displeasure; instead, she regarded Liu Tingyu with a scrutinizing and curious look.

However, Liu Tingyu's face showed no embarrassment or discomfort, nor anger or displeasure, but she gently said again, "Sister Feifei, hello!"

Bai Feifei sighed, "I didn't shake your hand and didn't give you face. Why aren't you angry?"

"Angry?" Liu Tingyu asked curiously, "Why would I be mad at a good friend of Ling Feng? Moreover, I can pretty much guess what's going on in your mind, Sister Feifei!"

Bai Feifei breathed a sigh of relief, a relaxed smile appearing on her face as she finally shook hands with Liu Tingyu, "I'm Bai Feifei, an admirer of Ling Feng, but I lost to you! I originally came to see what kind of person I lost to, and now I see I lost fairly. You have a much broader heart than I!"

With a look at Ling Feng, Bai Feifei continued, "But I, Bai Feifei, am not someone who admits defeat easily. Sister Ting Yu, if you don't hold on to Ling Feng tightly, I might take my chance! Well, now that I've met you, I should leave!"

Liu Tingyu tried to detain her, "Sister Bai, the concert is about to start, let's watch it together!"

Bai Feifei declined, "Never mind, I have a lot of cases to handle! And with Yanjing's order being somewhat chaotic, I really don't have the mindset to watch a concert. Have fun!"

With that, Bai Feifei decisively turned and left, leaving them only her resolute back view.

"That's good, this is good," whispered Bai Feifei to herself. "How could I, Bai Feifei, let matters of the heart affect my career? This outcome is probably best for me and Ling Feng!"

But for some reason, tears continuously streamed down Bai Feifei's face, dripping onto the ground like pearls.

After Bai Feifei left, Liu Tingyu acted as if nothing had happened and took Ling Feng's arm, "Come on, it's about to start!"

They had barely sat down when Yun Hanrui spoke sarcastically, "What a charmer, managing to confuse even the chief of the Criminal Police. Ling Feng, I really underestimated you!"
