Chapter 551: Night Exploration

Zhang Ling looked on as Ling Yun drove away before she returned reluctantly into the building.

She took the elevator up to the seventeenth floor and kicked the door with her feet since both her hands were occupied.

The door opened very quickly. The one who opened the door for her was Liang Fengqin.

Liang Fengqin might be nearing forty, but her body was attractive and her face beautiful. The years gave her maturity but left no trace on her body. Her skin was fair and crystal clear, filled with elasticity.

She donned a rose-red nightdress and exuded a mature feminine charm.

Her beauty wasn't inferior to her younger sister, Liang Fengyi. Her body was even hotter, but the look in her eyes was quite strict.

“Ahem, get in here you! What do you have in your hand?” Liang Fengqin's tone was unfriendly.

“Erm… It's a fis.h.!.+” Zhang Ling kicked her sandals away and hurried into the kitchen with the bag.

Liang Fengqin was shocked. Her daughter returned home late and actually brought a fish home? The fish also looked quite big.

“Big Sister, is that Zhang Ling?”

The s.e.xy and charming Liang Fengyi appeared in a loose white lace nightdress. She was drying her hair and coming out of Zhang Ling's bedroom.

Zhang Ling's father was engaged in geological exploration and would often be out for months on end. During these times, Liang Fengqin would ask her sister to come over and hang out. They were really close.

“Swoos.h.!.+”

“Pa pa pa…”

A series of baffling sounds emerged from the kitchen. Zhang Ling put the carp into the basin but didn't account for it being larger than the basin. It actually jumped out and onto the ground.

“Mummy, come and help! This fish is too huge, I can't handle it!” Zhang Ling cried out for help from her mom.

“Ahem. Revision in cla.s.s? That was definitely a lie. How could there be such a big fish in the cla.s.sroom?” Liang Fengqin grumbled but still went into the kitchen. Her face turned even uglier when she saw Zhang Ling's exposed lace panties. Zhang Ling's skirt was too short, causing the panties to be exposed as she squatted on the floor.

This set of clothes must be the s.e.xiest she had worn all summer.

Liang Fengqin grabbed the carp by its tail and put it into the large basin. The carp only stopped spluttering around violently when she poured a whole bucket of water into the basin.

They washed their hands and went back into the living room. Zhang Ling wanted to escape into the washroom immediately but was halted by Liang Fengqin.

“Zhang Ling, tell me the truth. Why did you return home so late today? Who brought you home? Where did that carp come from?” Liang Fengqin crossed her arms and glared at her daughter. She had to extract answers.

Zhang Ling stood in front of the television barefooted. She looked at Liang Fengqin then at Liang Fengyi. Their razor-sharp eyes told her that she wouldn't be able to escape.

That stupid Ling Yun! Why did he catch a carp for me out of the blue? How am I going to link the carp and the cla.s.sroom?

That lie wasn't going to work.

“Erm… I went out with my friend. The carp was a gift from him to boost my omeg3. He was also the one who sent me home…”

“Which friend? Is it that Ling Yun?” Liang Fengqin frowned slightly.

Liang Fengqin was p.i.s.sed off, but Liang Fengyi's ears p.r.i.c.ked up at Ling Yun's name. She had guessed that Zhang Ling went on a date with Ling Yun, but she didn't tell Liang Fengqin that.

“Yes!” Zhang Ling knew it was futile to lie.

“Look at the time yourself. You went out for two whole hours. Where did you go? Did he do anything to you?”

Liang Fengqin stood up suddenly and tried to lift Zhang Ling's skirt. She wanted to do a “check.”

Zhang Ling wormed away. “Mom, what are you thinking? Ling Yun just came back to town. We only met to talk. It's not what you're thinking…”

Liang Fengqin gave a cold laugh. “Hmph. Do you think I don't know you? You are bolder and party harder than anyone!”

A mother knows her daughter best.

Liang Fengyi sat on the sofa lazily, watching the fiasco and biting her red lips. The beauty mole around her lip twitched, not reflecting what she was thinking.

“What's that smell?” Liang Fengqin suddenly smelt something foreign from Zhang Ling's body.

Zhang Ling grew a deep crimson and panicked. “It must be the fis.h.!.+”

“How bothersome. I'll wash up and go to bed already!”

Zhang Ling ran into the bathroom without another word. She didn't dare to stay in the living room with her suspicious mother.

“Sigh… Children nowadays. Zhang Ling said that this Ling Yun can get into Yanjing University. How can he get in if he doesn't go to school every day?”

It was already one in the morning. Liang Fengqin pinned everything on Ling Yun's head, afraid that Zhang Ling's grades would slip.

Originally, she had a very good impression of Ling Yun from the way Zhang Ling and Liang Fengyi described him. That impression had now been razed to the ground.

“He should be able to get in…” Liang Fengyi said casually, her thoughts on Ling Yun.

Liang Fengyi saw Ling Yun send Zhang Ling back from Zhang Ling's bedroom. She just didn't see clearly since it was too dim and too far away.

“How can you help an outsider? I don't understand you!” Liang Fengqin glared at her sister before turning to Zhang Ling's bedroom to get her a set of pajamas.

Liang Fengyi's pet.i.te body trembled, blus.h.i.+ng all the way to her ears.

She went to the kitchen and caressed the fat carp, imagining that same hand caressing the captor of the fish.

Ling Yun went to the Ordinary People's Clinic after he sent Zhang Ling home. He used his divine sense to determine Yao Rou wasn't there before he left again and headed to Qingxi Villa District.

Ling Yun parked his Land Rover a distance away from Mansion Number One and locked the door. He then moved towards Mansion Number One under stealth and activated his divine sense. Everything was normal. His worries dissipated.

His enemies probably wouldn't be coming today since nothing was happening at one in the morning.

Xue Meining had a routine and was already fast asleep. Miao Xiaomiao, however, was meditating in her bedroom.

Bai Xianer was sitting cross-legged on Ling Yun's bed, cultivating her Celestial Fox Attribute.

Ling Yun didn't bother them. He slipped away quietly and went to the third district of Qingxi Villa District. That was where Cao Shanshan used to stay.

He left only a trail of smoke. Even the security cameras wouldn't be able to capture him.

Ling Yun reached Cao Shanshan's villa in no time. He used his divine sense to explore its interior and found that there was nothing left.

He flew into the courtyard and came to the window of Cao Shanshan's bedroom on the second floor.

The doors and windows were shut, but that was no challenge to Ling Yun. He used his finger to draw a circle on the window.

That piece of gla.s.s plonked out, and Ling Yun entered Cao Shanshan's room.

This was a familiar place. Ling Yun couldn't help but reminisce about Cao Shanshan.

The date on the school field, the dance at the disco, Cao Shanshan driving a Lamborghini to the Zhuang Family during the Qingming Festival to save him…

All of those scenes replayed in Ling Yun's mind. His face changed, and he swore in his heart that he would head to the Cao Family in Beijing right after the College entrance exams.

The worries affected his cultivation of the Path of the Heart.

Zhuang Meifeng, Cao Shanshan, Xiao Meimei, these three beauties had been tugging at his heart. He hadn't spoken to anyone, but he was really worried about them.

That was why Ling Yun was desperately trying to improve his strength. Every time he got stronger, the possibility of winning against the a.s.sa.s.sins Organization, Tranquil Sect, and the Cao Family would increase.

Ling Yun shook his head violently and expelled the depression in his heart. He then focused and expanded his divine sense to its limit.

Ling Yun soon found something.

It was a thick diary, locked within the drawer of her desk.

Ling Yun twisted the lock and broke it with his hand. He took the dairy out.

He turned to the last entry. It was the eve of Cao Shanshan's second return to Beijing.

Cao Shanshan's penmans.h.i.+p was beautiful.

It recorded her longing and worry for Ling Yun, her confidence in his safe return, and their future together. She even recorded that she would marry no one but Ling Yun.

Ling Yun stored the diary in his spatial ring after he was done reading it.

Ling Yun left Cao Shanshan's villa since he found nothing else of interest.

He went to Dragon Mountain instead of Mansion Number One.

He had to cultivate!
