C76 (2/2)

She gradually realized that the more capable a person was, the more they would not be able to do as they pleased. It was because they could plan everything out well and control the general situation that they could do so much. And to be impulsive was just a moment of being straightforward. After that, it might be endless trouble.

Wasn't it just a moment of passion that she had impulsively sent Susu and Auntie Chen to the dock? So far, so many troubles had been involved.

Xiaowan calmed herself down and said gently, ”Miss Yue, Susu's health is not good, I'm afraid I cannot accompany you to chat more. Wait for her to recover, we …”

Yue Huaiyin said: ”Then let's change the day. I'm at the inn, ever since I've eaten the food made by the Uncle Biao, the rest have become tasteless.”

Xiaowan did not say anything, but Yue Huaiyin moved closer and asked with concern: ”Susu, why are you injured, who hit you?”

Susu curled up her hands and feet, shook her head forcefully, and hid in Xiaowan's embrace. Xiaowan said, ”Miss Yue, you saw wrong.”

Yue Huaiyin nodded: ”Perhaps I was mistaken. Whatever, since I know that you and Auntie Chen are doing well, I can relax.” She got up and took a look at this tile room. It was plain and ordinary as she smiled, ”The two of you should still be careful of the door if you want to live here. ”Alright, I'll be going. In a few days, I'll have the people in the shop send you some things.”

Susu laid in the Xiaowan's embrace as she protected him. She did not say anything as she endured her anger, but at this moment, there was the sound of hooves outside the door. Not long after, Ling Chaofeng's figure appeared outside the door.

Yue Huaiyin sashayed out and looked at Ling Chaofeng: ”Manager Ling is here too? ”Coincidentally, we met each other here.”

Ling Chaofeng had been worried that Yue Huaiyin would go to her home, and as expected, he was worried that the Xiaowan would not hold back, and would even start a fight with Yue Huaiyin.

He never thought that everything would go on as usual after rushing over. Seeing that Xiaowan was accompanying Susu, he heaved a sigh of relief, and was even more relieved. He knew that Xiaowan was not stupid.

”Evening. I'll send Boss Yue off.” Ling Chaofeng stood in front of the door and said, ”Wait for me here.”

The corners of Yue Huaiyin's eyes hooked up to a touch of coldness. With a cold smile, she lifted up her skirt and walked out, then went back to her carriage, and instructed the servants to move forward. She didn't care about Ling Chaofeng at all, whether or not she wanted to follow along.

But on the way, the sound of unhurried horse hooves could be heard from behind. Yue Huaiyin sat in the car and proudly smiled as she took out a small paper bag from her chest pocket and held it in her palm.

Returning to the Baisha Town, Yue Huaiyin alighted from the carriage and saw that Ling Chaofeng was behind him. The shop assistant in the carriage was very enthusiastic: ”Manager Ling, you've come, are you here to buy rouge powder for my wife?”

Yue Huaiyin casually walked in and instructed everyone: ”You guys do not need to be busy. Manager Ling and I have some business matters to discuss in the rear courtyard. You guys just have to take care of the business outside. If someone comes looking for me, tell them to come back another day. ”

Everyone agreed, and Yue Huaiyin did not deliberately lead the way, but instead, she followed her. When they reached the side room, the servant girl gave them tea and ordered them to leave, the back yard immediately became quiet, as though there was no one there.

Yue Huaiyin walked to the door and locked it as if nothing had happened, then returned back to the table and brought a cup of tea in front of Ling Chaofeng, ”Manager Ling, have some tea.”

”I'm not busy.” Ling Chaofeng said, ”Since I have come, I naturally have something to ask, so it's better for everyone to get straight to the point.”

”We are all businessmen, we don't beat around the bush.” Yue Huaiyin looked at him with a smile and asked, ”Manager Ling, what do you want to talk about?”

Ling Chaofeng remained calm: ”Miss Yue, do you come from the capital?”

Yue Huaiyin raised her eyebrows slightly and asked coldly: ”How is it?”

Ling Chaofeng said: ”In the Green Tower in the capital, I have to visit the Immortal Pavilion. I only met Hua Kui in the Immortal Pavilion whom I haven't seen before, and I heard that he has disappeared for the past two years.”

”Visit the Immortal pavilion …” Yue Huaiyin lowered her head to fiddle with the teacup in front of her, and faintly said, ”What a familiar name.”

”It is the place where Miss Yue was born and raised. You are naturally familiar with it.”

”You've already investigated carefully?” Yue Huaiyin's sharp gaze surrendered to Ling Chaofeng, and pounced in front of him, ”Since that's the case, then you should know as well …”

Yue Huaiyin did not know what came out from his palm, but it struck right at Ling Chaofeng's nose and mouth. The fragrance was strange, as it rushed towards her head.

With a loud bang, the tall and big man fell from his chair. Ling Chaofeng's eyes were tightly shut, and he was completely unconscious.
