Especially since Tang Yun going to Xue Gu was a secret- without Mengyao's permission, she couldn't tell Tang Yuqi.
This was beyond her job scope, and she couldn't help Tang Yuqi at all. "They left in July or August, right? I didn't pay attention to that, I thought they left recently … "
"Is that so?" Tang Yuqi's sensitivity as a detective told him that Lingshan was hiding something from him, as if she was hiding something from him.
"Naturally, but I can help you ask around. I have a friend who's pretty close to Tang Yun. I'll see if she knows anything." Lingshan didn't say anything definite. She wanted to ask Mengyao first.
"Oh? If that's the case, can you introduce me to this friend so that we can pay a visit together? "Tang Yuqi's eyes lit up after listening and he quickly asked.
"I'm afraid not. I can't reveal her identity before this friend agrees." Lingshan shook her head. "She's different from me. You asked Captain Zhang to help me find your uncle. It's my job, but my friend doesn't want people to disturb her. I hope you can understand, Mister Tang."
"I understand." Tang Yuqi nodded. "I was being too impulsive. Alright, Captain Lingshan, this is my name card. My contact number is on it. I'll stay here for now, and we'll keep in touch. If you have any news, please let me know immediately."
"Sure, I'll let you know when I have news." Lingshan nodded and took Tang Yuqi's name card. It was written in a foreign language, but Tang Yuqi had written a temporary number on it.
Tang Yuqi didn't say anything more. He stood up and left. From Lingshan's tone and expression, he could tell that she was hiding something from him. It was just that he couldn't ask her about it. From what he could see, it had to do with Lingshan's friend. If Lingshan didn't want to talk about it, there was no point in asking. He might as well wait patiently.
Lingshan waited for Tang Yuqi to leave before calling Mengyao. She'd had some conflicts with Mengyao in the past, but ever since they'd worked together to help Mengyao escape with the unconscious Lin Yi, their relationship had gotten a lot better.
"Sister Lingshan? Are you looking for me? " Mengyao was a little surprised- she was in the middle of a class, and Lingshan was calling her. She'd asked for leave from the class and answered the call. Usually, Lingshan wouldn't call her for a chat if there was nothing going on, so the only possibility was that something was up.
"En, Yao Yao, I do have something important to discuss with you. I can't make up my mind, so I'm asking for your opinion." Lingshan said.
"Ah? Are you asking for my opinion? " Mengyao was a little taken aback. She didn't understand why Lingshan was asking for her opinion. "Lingshan sis … Why are you asking me about your matters?"
"Haha, I didn't make it clear. This isn't just about me, it's about Lin Yi and Tang Yun." Lingshan quickly added. "Actually, it's like this, someone's looking for Tang Yun …"
"Looking for Tang Yun? What's going on? "Mengyao was shocked." Who is it? "
"It's not an enemy, it's a relative of Tang Yun's family. Don't worry, Mengyao, it's like this …" With that, Lingshan told Mengyao about Tang Yuqi looking for Tang Jucheng's family in detail.
Mengyao couldn't help but go into deep thought after listening to Lingshan's story. She really couldn't just tell anyone about Tang Yun! Tang Yuqi was Tang Jucheng's nephew, Tang Yun's cousin, but they weren't really familiar with each other. She didn't know what kind of person he was, and she didn't know if he'd reveal this secret.
Most importantly, this was hidden from Lin Yi. If Tang Yuqi found out, would he blabber to Lin Yi? If he did, then all their efforts would be wasted. With Lin Yi's personality, he'd definitely go to the Snowy Valley to find Tang Yun and stop her Heartless arts. But if he really did stop her, would the Snowy Valley let Lin Yi go?
With Lin Yi's current strength, while he could fight people above his level and kill Sky class masters in one hit, he was still far from the ancient Sky class late phase peak. Mengyao wouldn't let Lin Yi take the risk!
Plus, it was hard to say whether Tang Yun was still the same Tang Yun from before. Would Tang Yun still have anything to do with Lin Yi after learning the Heartless arts?
All of these were Mengyao's concerns. After some hesitation, Mengyao said, "Lingshan sis, I think we should be careful about this. Although this person is Tang Yun's cousin, and he's a very close relative, we don't know what kind of person he is. I think we should observe him for a while. If he's really reliable, then it's fine to tell him, but if he's not, then it'll only make things worse. Most importantly, is this Tang Yuqi a practitioner? Does he know about practitioners? Would there be any other troubles if I told him? … Huh? He's called Tang Yuqi? "
Tang Yuqi's name sounded a little familiar to Mengyao after she'd finished her speech. She seemed to have heard it somewhere before?
But Mengyao couldn't remember who it was- it was probably someone she wasn't familiar with. Maybe she'd only heard of this person's name or met him once. Mengyao didn't want to waste any more time thinking about it.
"Yes, Tang Yuqi. What's wrong, Yao Yao? Do you know him?" Lingshan paused.
"I don't know him, but it sounds familiar. Maybe I heard from Lin Yi that there's a disciple of the Hidden House Tang called Tang Yuqi. Maybe that's why." Mengyao said.
"Oh, actually, I think so too. I'm going to observe this Tang Yuqi. If this person is really a very reliable person, then I don't mind telling him something. But if this person is not reliable, then forget it." Lingshan agreed. "Also, the thing you said about him knowing practitioners is very important. I'll find a chance to test him."
"Alright, Lingshan sis. You decide, but try not to affect Lin Yi." Mengyao said.
"Okay, I understand." Lingshan nodded. "Don't worry, I'll act according to the situation."
