“Because I’ll be studying hard at Qingshui High from next Monday onwards, I’ll never miss a class until the college entrance examinations!”
A signature smile crept up the corners of Ling Yun’s mouth as he announced it to not just Long Wu but all the beauties present.
All of them were dumbfounded! That was an unprecedented declaration!
“Wu Er, now I’m talking to you through telepathy, none of them can hear. Since we’re deskmates, do you want me to send you off personally after school or bring you to my place?”
Long Wu blossomed with joy as she blurted out, “Ah, I can’t stay here anymore...”
Could Long Wu do something about the fact that Bai Xianer, Xue Meining, and Miao Xiaomiao were living at the same place as Ling Yun? No.
Could Long Wu do anything about the fact that Qin Dongxue and Ning Lingyu were also there? Of course not!
Since she couldn’t displace anyone from their rooms here, it made no sense for her to continue staying when Ling Yun was going to start school next week!
What was the purpose of living under the same roof as Ling Yun? Of course, it was to spend more time with him!
Therefore, who would benefit from more time if Ling Yun started conscientiously attending classes? Without a doubt, it was Long Wu, who was Ling Yun’s deskmate.
From 7 am to 10 pm, the day curriculum time was more than enough for them to play around. Moreover, since Ling Yun was sending her home alone, they could continue expressing their deep affection for each other on the road, and they could even go further without restraint in the car!
However, what if Long Wu had stayed in Mansion Number One? How much time could Ling Yun devote to her with the crowd of beauties fighting for his time? Watching Ling Yun throw glances at other girls was enough to make Long Wu extremely jealous.
Long Wu immediately understood what Ling Yun meant without further explanation.
Only a fool would want to stay!
After lunch, Ling Yun settled the conflict that had been going on for an entire afternoon using just a few sentences. The awkward situation between the two girls was resolved immediately and effectively by Ling Yun, with each party feeling they had come out on top.
“That solved it?”
The three ladies stared at one another in disbelief.
“Hm! What else do you want? You two don’t even take Aunty’s words seriously, I would have to tear down the house if the both of you stayed here!”
Now that Ling Yun had completely stopped the conflict between the two beauties, he held complete control over the situation and started practicing male chauvinism without restraint. At the same time, he flattered Qin Dongxue conveniently and elevated her status.
That did indeed please Qin Dongxue. Lin Menghan and Long Wu bowed their heads in shame and didn’t speak a word, their beautiful jet-black hair dancing in the summer wind, much to Ling Yun’s enjoyment.
“Apologize to Aunty!”
Ling Yun grabbed hold of the opportunity and started lecturing the two beauties.
“It was my mistake, Aunty...”
“I’m sorry, Aunty...”
Both of them blushed with embarrassment and apologized to Qin Dongxue, one playing with her tender fingers and the other pinching the edge of her skirt.
That largely appeased the jealousy in Qin Dongxue’s heart and induced a sense of pity in her. She giggled. “That’s okay, we’re a family anyways. It’ll get better eventually!”
Qin Dongxue exclaimed to Ling Yun through telepathy, “Seems like you’re a pretty resourceful brat, no wonder the number of girls charmed by you is so high. We have been trying to stop them for the whole afternoon, but to no avail, who knew you could tame them in just a few words!”
“Uh, look at these girls, Aunty. I’m already sick enough, and these girls are still creating trouble for me...” Ling Yun thought that his time had come and put on an honest pretense.
Qin Dongxue giggled and grumbled coyly, “Stop being so full of yourself! If you want to brag about your excellence, no one is stopping you, no need for beating around the bush...”
Suddenly, Qin Dongxue flared again and said, “Stinky brat, are you talking about me!” Didn’t Qin Dongxue chase after him too?
Ling Yun knew that his tongue slipped and quickly remedied the situation. “That’s absurd, Aunty. We’re relatives, so of course I’ll be grateful for you coming all the way here to take care of me...”
“That’s more like it!” Qin Dongxue was finally satisfied, but deep down, she thought, Idiot, if only I wasn’t your Aunty...
Customary statuses like this killed people, and Qin Dongxue and Ning Lingyu were the victims.
No one could fault the ladies for being attracted to Ling Yun, he was truly excellent. He was akin to a deity in this ordinary city — even disregarding his outstandingly handsome face, a few flirtatious moves from him would be enough to make any woman fall for him.
His tantalizing physical build, coupled with his handsome face, was irresistible to any girl that wasn’t blind.
Or girls who weren’t attracted to guys at all, then that couldn’t be helped.
Even with the conflict resolved, Lin Menghan and Long Wu were still embarrassed to talk to each other, though they were no longer on bad terms. Six beauties of unparalleled physical attractiveness settled around the sofa and talked to Ling Yun, meticulously asking about his health.
Ling Yun answered one sentence after another. Whenever he seized an opportunity, he would use telepathy to communicate with Miao Xiaomiao, who was still inside the room on the second floor.
“Did Xiao Jin find out where the two drivers today came from?”
“Yes, they live in a large yard by the southern suburbs. There are at least ten of them, all of them highly skilled...”
“Any woman donning a black veil?”
“No, all guys!”
“Tell me the specific route!”
Ling Yun had already restored all his depleted spiritual energy from the six-hour cultivation session void of distractions. Now that midnight was approaching, and now that he was at his physical peak, it was time to make a move!
Since it was in the southern suburbs, it was close to Nancui Peak. Thus, after he decimated the temporary living spot of the people from the Assassins Organization, he could drop by Nancui Gardens just in time for an intimate consummation session with Yao Rou.
Even the driver is a Xiantian master, it seems like these killers are pretty high up in the Assassins Organization. I wonder if they’re from the Devil Sect... Ling Yun contemplated.
Ning Lingyu was about to make dinner for all the beauties after she talked to Ling Yun for a while, but she was stopped by Ling Yun.
“Ning Er, call Qingshui Restaurant and ask them to deliver a table’s worth of the best delicacies. Before 8 pm!”
Of course, Ning Lingyu could make food for Ling Yun and Qin Dongxue, but that was all. Her status was way higher than any woman in the house except Qin Dongxue.
For her to make food for all the beauties was impossible.
Mansion Number One had long replaced Miracle Doctor Xue’s place as the richest place in Qingxi Villa District. Naturally, Qingshui Restaurant would pour in their utmost effort to prepare the food for such a big customer.
Before eight, Qingshui Restaurant had already delivered the sumptuous dinner, which was comprised of all the signature dishes of the restaurant. Even the steamed carp dish was made with fresh carp straight out of the lake instead of over-the-counter frozen carp from the supermarket.
Ning Lingyu’s culinary skills were taught personally by Qin Qiuyue and further augmented by the careful guidance of Aunty Mei. Therefore, Ling Yun wasn’t too concerned about the delivery as Ning Lingyu’s was above everyone else in Qingshui City.
What he was concerned about, however, was the group of five that stepped out of the van, including a manager, two partners, and two servers. One of the servers was the beauty, Zhang Xin, who had previously served Ling Yun.
When Zhang Xin, with her tantalizing figure, delicate facial features, and inviting smile, entered the living room with the two guys carrying the dinner boxes, she was instantly stunned at the sight of Ling Yun.
“You... you... you...” Zhang Xin stuttered as she struggled to voice a “hello”.
“What a coincidence...” Ling Yun said casually, sitting on the sofa and gleefully observing the blushing Zhang Xin.
“Big Brother Yun, what are you looking at?” Xue Meining, at the sight of Zhang Xin, pouted to express her jealousy and disapproval.
“Uh, nothing much, an old friend...”
Ling Yun retracted his gaze and smiled at the beauties, commenting no further.
“Good evening, this is the meal you ordered from Qingshui Restaurant.” She finally stopped stuttering with Ling Yun’s gaze removed from her.
“Interesting,” Ling Yun said with a smile as he scanned the sumptuous dishes on the table, preparing to hand them the cash.
“Good evening, Mr. Ling, this is the VIP card from our humbled Qingshui Restaurant. The next time you order takeout or dine-in, we will offer a 50% discount. There is already a balance of over a million yuan on this card...” the refined young manager, with a golden card in his hand, said as he respectfully handed it to Ling Yun.
Over a million? 50% discount? Didn’t that mean he could spend two million yuan?
He could use it for a full year, even if he spent eight thousand yuan a day!
“Who applied for this?” Ling Yun asked casually as he received the card calmly.
“The Qingxi Public Security Bureau Branch Director Liu applied for it. He instructed us to pass it to you no matter what...”
Liu Jinlai!
What an opportunistic sycophant! Nonetheless, Ling Yun was indeed very satisfied.
“Alright, tell him that I’ll use it!”
After sending the group off, Ling Yun tossed around the VIP card for a long while before lobbing it to Xue Meining.
“We won’t have to worry about paying for our meals now, haha...”
Qin Dongxue extended her long delicate finger and poked it against Ling Yun’s forehead, saying coyly, “Keep being smug about it!”
