Chapter 53 - Chapter 53: Chapter 53 Misunderstanding (2/2)

The corners of the Talisman Master’s mouth twitched:

“We are all fellow daoists.”

“Fellow daoist, that’s not very righteous of you. Who goes there without any business to attend to?”

After speaking, he looked at Lin Jing with a strange gleam in his eyes:

“You were in such a hurry. I saw it very clearly at the time, you entered the gambling house but didn’t even stay, directly leaving through the back door.”

“Just a few days have passed and you’re already denying it?” At this point, he spoke with righteous indignation:

“As one of us, one must not cower in fear…

“Having gone means having gone, one should boldly admit it.” “Fine, if you say so, then so be it.”

Lin Jing, feeling helpless, could only respond in that way.

As for the issue with the entrance to the black market, it was not wise to reveal it to this man, and he didn’t want to explain any further.

The talisman master chuckled with a sneer:

“Heh heh… that’s more like it…

“Lin Daoyou, next time you ‘have business’ at the Yichun House, don’t forget to call me along.”

Seeing his suggestive winking, Lin Jing really wanted to rush up and punch him.

But on second thought, he decided against it.

“Alright, I can’t talk with you any longer, I need to go back and prepare. Lin Daoyou bids farewell.”

Having said that, the talisman master returned to his own courtyard.

Lin Jing then sighed and thought to himself:

“It seems I should try to avoid contact with this person in the future.”

Having thought this, Lin Jing decided to head home and make some preparations in advance.

However, as soon as Lin Jing turned around, he caught sight of two figures, one tall and one short, out of the corner of his eye.

Lin Jing quickly turned his head and saw the two figures were Ning Yue and her daughter Luo Luo; he just didn’t know when they had appeared.

Lin Jing’s heart couldn’t help but skip a beat.

“They didn’t overhear something, did they? I hope they’ve just arrived and didn’t hear anything.”

Lin Jing silently prayed.

Then, he walked up to them to greet the two.

“Fellow Ning. ”

“Luo Luo.”

“Uncle Lin,” Luo Luo greeted Lin Jing happily.

But then, the next thing Luo Luo said made Lin Jing instantly die of embarrassment on the spot.

“Uncle Lin, what kind of place is Yichun House? Is it fun inside?”

After Luo Luo spoke, Lin Jing was momentarily stunned and did not know how to answer.

“Children shouldn’t be nosing about in adults’ affairs.”

Ning Yue admonished Luo Luo.

“Oh…

Luo Luo’s previously cheerful face instantly fell.

Hanging her head low, she kicked the fallen leaves on the ground in dispirited silence.

She felt wronged for having been scolded by her mother for no reason, just for asking a question.

Fortunately, this also indirectly extricated Lin Jing from the awkward situation.

However, Lin Jing felt even more embarrassed now; clearly, they had overheard everything.

“Fellow Ning…”

Lin Jing wanted to explain, but Ning Yue cut him off outright.

“Fellow Lin, it’s chaotic outside now, don’t go wandering off. We’re also heading back. ”

Then, as if to avoid Lin Jing, or maybe for another reason,

As soon as Ning Yue finished speaking, she took Luo Luo with her and left.

Leaving Lin Jing alone in his disarray to face the wind. “Forget it, I can only wait until the next time we meet to explain things clearly.”

With a silent sigh, Lin Jing also returned to his own home..
