C146 (1/2)

There was water beneath the attic, and the entire attic was built on top of the water. The attic has cloisters connected to several other Japanese buildings in a form similar to the architecture of ancient Chinese palaces.

There were also surveillance cameras in the pavilion, but there was no one in the corridor. From time to time, the sounds of bamboo could be heard.

Ling Yun followed the sound and carefully arrived outside a room.

His sensitive senses told him that there was someone in this room. It was only one person, a person who was playing a zither!

The door to the room was closed. Although the window was open, unfortunately, it was located within the range of a surveillance camera. Thus, entering from there was not considered.

If a door could not be entered, and a window could not be entered, did that mean that the room could not be entered?

Perhaps for the average person.

Ling Yun was not an ordinary person. Thus, Lingyun decided to take the third path — Skylight!

Unlike most of the buildings in China, most of the Japanese-style buildings have skylights.

Going up to the skylight was already effortless for Lingyun, so he quickly arrived outside the window. From this place, it was very easy to see the situation in the room.

Then, Lingyun saw a person, a person playing the zither! A person that Ling Yun almost fell through the skylight seeing this …

It wasn't strange that someone was playing the zither, nor was it strange that this person was playing the zither in this place!

Because this person was none other than the person that Ling Yun was trying to find — Yeyue Shazhi!

Yeyue Shazhi could actually play the zither in the Vermillion Bird Society headquarters?!

It was truly like stepping on broken iron shoes finding no place at all, obtaining without any effort!

Ling Yun could not help but be overjoyed. If he found Yeyue Shazhi, it would mean that Tian Hanyan was very possibly right before her eyes!

However, what made Ling Yun's heart beat even faster was yet to come.

Just as Ling Yun was getting excited, Yeyue Shazhi stopped playing the zither, tidied her hair, and leisurely said: ”Since you are here, why don't you come in and let the yarn be blessed with a cup of tea? It is not a good way to treat guests to wait outside due to the strong wind outside! ”

Ling Yun was shocked, who was she talking to?!

To himself? How is this possible? Even a surveillance camera would be unable to detect his presence, and his movements would be so light that it might even be softer than the sound of feathers falling to the ground. How could a weak girl like her be able to detect his presence?!

But if it wasn't him, who else could it be? At this time, other than him, the uninvited guest, there seemed to be no one else.

Lingyun decided to wait. What if she wasn't talking about him?

But Yeyue Shazhi's next sentence completely shattered this illusion.

”Don't tell me that after just a few days, the weaving is no longer just yarn?” It actually made you fear us like a tiger, not even daring to meet you? ” After saying that, she raised her head and looked towards the skylight where Ling Yun was located, ”Mister Ling Yun?!”

This time, he was certain of it!

Ling Yun sighed helplessly and could only jump down from above.

There was no one else in the room, and only Ling Yun and Yeyue Shazhi looked at each other. This feeling, was as if they had returned to the Northern Tomb Villa!

Yeyue Shazhi smiled, it was a very sweet smile. Then she casually bowed to Ling Yun: ”The world is really small! I never thought that we would meet with Mr. Ling again so soon! ”

Lingyun smiled bitterly and touched his nose: ”Nice to meet you!”

Yeyue Shazhi smiled, ”Mr. Ling, please take a seat!”

Then, just like a hospitable hostess, he continued, ”We have known each other for so long, yet we have never had the opportunity to let Mr. Ling experience the embroidery tea ceremony. As he said that, he took out a simple and elegant tea set. He actually wanted to show Lingyun her tea ceremony.

Unexpectedly, she was not surprised at all by Lingyun's appearance here, and did not explain why she would appear here. What she was doing right now, was still a Courtesan Belle, and Lingyun was her esteemed guest.

Ling Yun looked around, and did not find anything unusual, he sat down and said to Yeyue Shazhi: ”No need to trouble yourself!”

Yeyue Shazhi smiled slightly, but continued to play with the set of tea set. It had to be said that her movements in making the tea could be said to be extremely beautiful, every movement was extremely marvelous, as though she was not making tea, but dancing. The art of tea was vividly displayed to her.

As Yeyue Shazhi made tea, she said to Ling Yun: ”It's truly a pity to leave without saying goodbye! Presumably, Mr. Ling won't blame me, right? ”

She did not explain why she had left without saying goodbye, but instead asked the question first, which meant: I was planning to leave without saying goodbye.

Ling Yun smiled at her, and gave her his answer. The current Yeyue Shazhi, was still the same, pure white and beautiful like before, just like a young girl who had no knowledge of the world.

She was engrossed in the tea ceremony as if it were the most important thing in the world, and she might not care about anything else for the time being.

Ling Yun suddenly said: ”You … Aren't you going to say something to me? ”

Yeyue Shazhi smiled sweetly, ”There is an ancient saying in China called 'Where do we not meet?' Didn't we agree with that ancient saying?”

Ling Yun said: ”That's not what I want to know …”

Yeyue Shazhi straightened her hair, ”What does Mr. Ling want to know? As for Mr. Ling, I will tell anything that I know! ”

”I... ”Strange, why would you stay here?”

Yeyue Shazhi charmingly looked at Ling Yun, as if she was surprised that Ling Yun would ask this question: ”Because this is my home! If I don't stay here, where should I stay? ”

”Home?!”
