662 I Can’t Live Like This Anymore! (1/2)

”It's done.”

Yun Yang exclaimed in excitement as he flaunted his accomplishment, ”I'm here to let you know that you don't have to be worried anymore. You don't have to be concerned about Old Mistress Shangguan's condition for at least another ten years.”

Shangguan Lingxiu pulled her blanket up to bury her head, feeling abashed and awkward.

'Why is he here again?'

'It's worse this time – I haven't taken off my clothes before… Great, now should I be worried about the state I'm in?'

She did not even listen to anything Yun Yang was saying.

”You – How…” Shangguan Lingxiu hid but decided it was a wrong move. She then repositioned her blanket and wrapped it around her body to show only her head while looking at Yun Yang in exasperation.

”You… You – You really…”

Yun Yang had never imagined that they would meet under such circumstances. Shocked and stunned, he spoke in a hurt tone, ”You… Why didn't you wait for my news before sleeping?”

These were Yun Yang's honest words. He had really thought that Shangguan Lingxiu would wait for the result of his treatment. He did not expect the lady to take off her clothes and go to bed without even waiting!

Went to bed after taking off her clothes… Could he be blamed for her actions?

Lord Supreme Cloud felt unjustly accused.

Shangguan Lingxiu felt even more upset. Clenching her jaws, she growled in a low voice, ”What are you talking about? Do you have to specifically inform me about everything you do? If I didn't know that you were Supreme Cloud, I'd wait for the result, of course – respectfully wait for it. However, I now know that you're Supreme Cloud and I would have gone to your residence tomorrow! What can't wait till then? Did you think that I wouldn't go? Ah!”

Yun Yang could only spout gibberish without giving a proper response. Perhaps he had done things with a tad too much haste.

Shangguan Lingxiu had adopted the routine of going to the Residence of King Yun daily, these days. It was almost a habit. Despite being Supreme Cloud, he was mainly Yun Yang. He had thumped his chest, a guarantee that he would take note of Old Mistress Shangguan's condition – there was really no need to hurry or be hasty.

Looking at the blanket-wrapped Shangguan Lingxiu, who was looking back at him in embarrassment, frustration,and helplessness, Yun Yang coughed and had nothing to say. For some reason which he could not fathom, he then spluttered, ”Sister Lingxiu, actually… the view of you on the bed… is rather…enticing. ”

Shangguan Lingxiu buried herself back into her blanket, so abashed that she was turning crimson.

'Bastard! What is he talking about? '

”Uh… I'll leave now…” Yun Yang immediately knew that he had said the wrong thing the moment the words left his mouth. He slipped away, swiftly making his escape.

When Shangguan Lingxiu finally mustered enough courage to flip her blanket off and settle the case with Yun Yang, he was already gone without a trace. With his speed, he might already be at Old Grand Commandant Fang's residence…

Embarrassed as he was, it was still better to complete what should be accomplished tonight in one go. Since he could not bring an end to his biggest threat as planned, it was necessary that he switched lanes to resolve some other issues. It would be best to solve them as soon as possible.

With this minor hiccup, the stifling vexation that came from Wu Ying seemed to utterly dissipate.

As Yun Yang sped through the wind, he found that he had the mood to let his thoughts run wild.

'Tsk, I must say… once Sister Lingxiu takes off her clothes, she's still very much a woman…'

It was fortunate that he did not utter these words on the spot. Otherwise, he would probably have been beaten up violently – very, very violently.
