“Hi, master, mom.” Leng Shaoting greeted, then gave Jiang Liluo and Si Jin a nod.
Jiang Liluo and Si Jin were older than him, but looked younger, so he didn’t know what to call them.
Jiang Liluo and Si Jin also nodded at him.
“I heard that something which has happened in the capital has something to do with the Leng family. I couldn’t ask much about it on the phone. What exactly happened?” asked Leng Shaoting.
Afterwards, Gu Ning told Leng Shaoting about everything, including her trip with Leng Yuanqian to the capital of Country Y and her meeting with the Thomas family.
After knowing the details, Leng Shaoting was unhappy.
“How’s the Chang family now?” asked Leng Shaoting.
Jing Yunyao replied. “I caused the windows of Master Chang’s eldest son’s car to explode. Then the broken glass stabbed into his body. His chauffeur was so shocked that they ended up having a car accident. Master Chang’s eldest son was injured a second time. Currently, he’s seriously injured in the hospital. I also made Master Chang fall into a coma. He hasn’t woken up yet. Master Chang’s grandson was caught in bed with another woman by his girlfriend. He had a car accident that night as well. I heard it’s very serious, but he survived. The Chang family is amid crises. They’ve angered the Leng family and the Yuan family at the same time. Now we’re teaming up to fight them. We’re collecting evidence of their illegal deeds.”
“The Chang family is losing its influence. If they don’t stop attacking other families, they’ll be replaced sooner or later. Actually, the task I did this time also has something to do with the Chang family. However, the Chang family doesn’t know that vampires are involved. They only cooperated with a dark force in Country M, wanting to kill me while I was carrying out the task,” said Leng Shaoting.
Leng Shaoting stayed calm about the Chang family’s scheme, but the others were mad.
“The Chang family is digging its own grave!” Gu Ning said coldly. She really hated the Chang family now. If it was possible, she wouldn’t hesitate to unseat them.
“Well, we just planned to kick the Chang family out of the four major families and weaken them so that they can’t get the position back, but now I think we should completely destroy them,” Jing Yunyao said in a deep voice, showing malice and cruelty. This time, Jing Yunyao was really furious.
They tried to kill her son!
“Did you get hurt?” asked Jing Yunyao. She had the same feelings as Gu Ning. Even though Leng Shaoting was safe in front of her eyes right now, she still wanted to know whether he had encountered any danger.
“I didn’t, but Chen Meng is slightly injured. Anyway, we’re fine and we’ve already killed our target. I just don’t know whether they will take revenge. Anyway, since I’m back, I needed to let you know about it. You must be prepared. After all, I won’t stay in the capital for too long, and I need you to protect the Leng family,” said Leng Shaoting.
“Don’t worry, we’ll be well-prepared. We already have a plan. And I’ll stay in the Leng family’s house for a while. If anything happens, I’ll discuss it with Senior Shangguan. Liluo will leave to protect President Wei from tomorrow, since President Wei is also in danger now. Si Jin will be on standby, so is Ningning. Ningning can go to class as usual, but she’ll come and help us if anything goes wrong.” Jing Yunyao answered.
“Great, it’s a great plan,” said Leng Shaoting. “If you don’t have enough helpers, turn to cultivators in the cultivation world for help.”
“I know,” said Jing Yunyao. She had the same idea.
From the beginning to the end, Shangguan Yang said nothing, but he wouldn’t hesitate to stand out if he was needed.
He said nothing because he didn’t know much about the complicated relationships among the four major families.
After talking about the business, Leng Shaoting said, “Well, I need to deal with something now. Ningning will go with me. I need a helper in case I can’t handle it alone.”
“Sure, be careful,” said Jing Yunyao. She didn’t doubt Leng Shaoting’s words, neither did Gu Ning.
After that, Gu Ning left with Leng Shaoting. When they were in the car, Gu Ning asked seriously, “What is it?”
Leng Shaoting suddenly laughed and said in a seductive tone, “You’ll know in a while.”
Looking at the expression on Leng Shaoting’s face, Gu Ning immediately realized what it was. There was nothing he needed to deal with, but…
Remembering what Leng Shaoting just said, Gu Ning flushed and didn’t dare to meet his eyes.
“Oh!” She lightly answered, pretending that she had no idea what Leng Shaoting was talking about.
Leng Shaoting noticed Gu Ning’s reaction and felt more satisfied. “Ningning, you’re very smart, so you should know what we’re going to do, right?”
“Don’t flatter me. You said nothing about it. How could I know? I can’t read your mind.” Gu Ning argued, but her voice lacked confidence.
“Really? But I bet you already know,” said Leng Shaoting. He wouldn’t miss any chance to flirt with Gu Ning.
“That’s your feelings, not the truth.” Gu Ning retorted, but she knew she was lying. Leng Shaoting watched her reaction and felt amused. Her words weren’t persuasive at all.
“Fine, don’t disappoint me when we do it later!” Leng Shaoting said purposely.
Gu Ning said nothing, because she knew what Leng Shaoting was talking about. She felt too embarrassed to answer it.
“What? Aren’t you willing to help?” Leng Shaoting asked, showing a little disappointment on his face, but there was excitement in his eyes.
“Focus on the road. Stop asking me so many questions!” Gu Ning was annoyed. She didn’t want to answer his questions any longer. They were familiar and very close, but she still felt embarrassed to talk about some topics.
“Fine!” Leng Shaoting stopped joking with Gu Ning. Whether she answered it or not, the result would be the same.
Leng Shaoting drove all the way to Mid-Levels Mansion. Because it was late at night, there was barely any traffic on the road, so Leng Shaoting drove fast, and they arrived about twenty minutes later.
