Chapter 105 (1/2)

After Yu BingYan was tired from crying, she curled up in Ling Tian’s embrace, sleeping soundly like an obedient kitten.

The sound of light footsteps sounded and Ling Tian placed Yu BingYan down on the bed gently, covering a blanket over her. He then looked at her closed eyes with tears still present at the tip of her eye lashes. After a while, Ling Tian walked out.

Outside the door, a skinny black dressed man was already standing there quietly. His body was straight, with a pale and chilly face.

Ling Tian smiled, ”XueLeng, why aren’t you coming in? Are you not afraid that I will harm your little princess? Are you so confident in me? Mmm?”

The person outside the door was the mysterious man who had always been protecting Yu BingYan, XueLeng, who was an expert in the Yu family. He then replied coldly, ”You will not harm the little princess, I know that!”

”Oh? You’re so sure about that?” Ling Tian looked at him teasingly as he thought to himself, ”While this fellow seems like a blockhead, he isn’t a fool either.”

XueLeng then looked directly into Ling Tian’s eyes and said, ”While you definitely will not harm the little princess, I know that you will kill me without hesitation the moment you have the chance!”

Ling Tian burst out into laughter, ”Kill you? I can kill you with a brush?” At the same time, he was startled in his heart, ”This fellow is really so sensitive! Did he realize something?”

XueLeng stared at him unblinkingly, looking at the look of disbelief and innocence plastered over Ling Tian’s face. A while later, XueLeng averted his gaze from Ling Tian, ”Forget it, I only wish that I can send the little princess back to the Yu family safe and sound. Your Sky Bearing Empire and Ling Mansion is too dangerous!”

Ling Tian nodded his head in agreement, ”You are right, I will transfer more guards over. Mmm, if that isn’t enough, I will hire all the armed escort companies in the Sky Bearing Empire. Those people are all experts in the pugilistic world! They will definitely be able to ensure the safety of the little princess!”

XueLeng was completely speechless.

He was just unable to figure anything out about this young man. Whenever Ling Tian lied, he would do so calmly and without a trace, making it seem as though everything was from the bottom of his heart. This made XueLeng extremely helpless. Thus, XueLeng replied with displeasure, ”Do whatever you wish, I will always be by the little princess' side. You'd better take care of your own safety. It is not your turn to bother about the little princess’ safety.” In the end, he still let go of his doubts.

When he first saw Ling Tian, he felt that Ling Tian’s body size was a little familiar. However, he would never believe that this number one silkpants was a martial arts expert! Only until he saw Ling Chen and Ling Tian stand together did he begin to have his suspicions.

The past few days, he had tried to silently investigate plenty of times. However, this young man would always be a little evil and frivolous. As for the young lady, she was naive and lively, not bothering about worldly affairs! Slowly, he even began to doubt his own judgement. In the end, he decided not to remain in hiding and step out openly instead. After a few frontal probing, he still had no results at all. He felt that this young man in front of him was just like a slippery loach, making him feel completely helpless. Today, he had finally confirmed that this fellow was only a scholarly aristocratic young n.o.ble. Apart from the few words of poetry and strokes of painting, he did not have any other abilities!

XueLeng began to lament in his heart, ”Just how did this weak fellow attract the liking of our little princess?! If the family head finds out about this matter, he will definitely skin me alive!” He sighed with frustration. After hearing the even breathing of the little princess, his body flashed and he disappeared into the darkness again.

Ling Chen’s giggles then sounded. Ever since XueLeng followed Yu BingYan into the Ling Mansion, Ling Chen acted like a cheerful la.s.s without any worries in the world, as opposed to her usual cold demeanor, under Ling Tian’s command.

After following Ling Tian for so many years and acting alongside him, Ling Chen’s acting skills was extremely well trained under Ling Tian. If she were to be placed in the modern day generation, she would definitely be someone like Zhang ZiYi and Liu YiFei. [1]

Behind Ling Chen, there was a black dressed young man who seemed a little too stiff. A sharp face with distinct body shape. Every single action he took seemed to be rhythmic. Like a hunter out searching for prey, he was emanating a vicious aura.

When the black dressed young man entered the courtyard, XueLeng — who was hiding in the shadows — felt that his heart suddenly sped up. A dangerous feeling overwhelmed him as his hair began to stand! Suddenly, he was reminded of the feeling he felt when he was walking in the cemetery at night! That was a feeling of death!

The young man was holding a few boxes in his head. After walking past XueLeng’s hiding place, his eyes did not turn and pace remained unchanged. Even his breathing was also kept the same, as though he did not know that there was someone like XueLeng hiding in the dark.
