"You came in just like that!" Ji Ling tilted her head.
"You came into my room just like that! Quietly waiting for me to return … "Yun Yang paced around Ji Ling with his hands behind his back, clicking his tongue," Miss Ji's ability to steal a woman is not bad … "
"What did you say?" Ji Ling's embarrassment turned into anger, her little canine teeth bared as she said fiercely, "Say that again!"
Recalling the words' female pervert 'that Yun Yang had said earlier, and the words' stealing a woman ', she felt the urge to beat him up.
Yun Yang raised his head and said, "Why? You're the one who did it, but I'm not allowed to say it?"
"You!" Ji Ling's embarrassment turned into anger as she felt that she could not gain the upper hand in a verbal battle.
This child can't beat me anyway!
She lunged forward. Yun Yang was about to dodge, but Ji Ling was fast and had already twisted his hands behind his back. With a twist of her hand, she had Yun Yang pinned to the ground. She raised her knee and hit the back of Yun Yang's buttocks. Yun Yang flew out like he was riding on a cloud, sprawling on the ground. Before he could even cry out in pain, he felt a weight on his back. Ji Ling had already sat on his back. Yun Yang felt as if a mountain was pressing down on him. His back that had just straightened up a little fell back onto the ground with a thud, crying out in pain.
"Are you going to tell me or not?" Ji Ling asked fiercely.
"My … my home, why can't I tell you?" Yun Yang was panting as he struggled to raise his head.
"Hmm?" Ji Ling stretched out her hand and pinned Yun Yang's hands behind his back. She exerted force, causing Yun Yang to wail, "Ouch, ouch, ouch …"
"Are you going to tell me or not?"
"I'm not!"
"Can I do it?"
"Yes! Yes! Big sister, let go … "
"Do you still dare to give me that look?"
"No, no, no … Ouch …"
"Did you kill Ximen Wandai?"
"Yes, I killed him … I killed him, alright?" Yun Yang twisted his body, trying to regain control of the situation. However, Ji Ling's cultivation base was more than a level higher than Yun Yang's. It was almost impossible for Yun Yang to move even if he wanted to.
Ji Ling sat on Yun Yang, looking down at him from above. For a moment, she felt a sense of pride. Thinking of how she had been bullied by this fellow for the past few days, she felt exhilarated, as if the weight in her chest had been lifted.
He said arrogantly, "Who asked you to piss me off these few days? Let me tell you, when you're not strong enough, it's better to tuck your tail between your legs … "
At this point.
There were hurried footsteps at the door.
Ji Ling was taken aback, but before she could jump up, the door was pushed open by Lao Mei. His anxious voice could be heard, "Young master … what's going on? Why do I hear that there's a fight here … "
Then, he choked on his voice.
Ji Ling turned back and Yun Yang lifted his head with difficulty.
Lao Mei was standing at the door with an incredulous look on his face. His eyes looked like they were about to pop out of their sockets as he stared at them. His mouth was so wide open that two duck eggs could almost fit in it!
Ji Ling jumped up instinctively and stammered, "This …"
"It's nothing, it's nothing …" Lao Mei smiled apologetically, "I didn't see anything … You guys can continue …"
"I didn't … I just … I …" Ji Ling stammered as she grew more anxious.
"It's nothing, it's nothing, young people …" Lao Mei took a step back, "Playing games … it's normal …"
"Don't go!" Ji Ling jumped up anxiously, "I just … I just wanted to teach him a lesson … Yes, I wanted to teach him a lesson … That's why I'm riding on …"
She suddenly choked as she spoke.
Riding on him to teach him a lesson? Even Ji Ling herself did not think that such a reason could be justified.
"It's nothing, it's nothing …" Lao Mei looked awkward as well, feeling that he should not have come over. He blurted out, "Actually, it doesn't matter who's riding who … I'm leaving …"
Feeling that he had said the wrong thing, he ran off once he closed the door, "You guys can continue …"
"No …" Ji Ling rushed over to open the door and said anxiously, "It's not what you saw … Don't misunderstand … Listen to me …"
However, there was no sign of Lao Mei at the door.
Ji Ling's mouth was agape as she looked at the empty yard outside the door. She could only feel her face heating up like it was on fire.
As the night breeze blew, Ji Ling stood there in a daze for a moment. Suddenly, she reacted and cried out in extreme embarrassment. Covering her face with both hands, she squatted down.
This misunderstanding … could not be cleared even if she jumped into the Endless Ocean …
My reputation … my reputation …
Ji Ling squatted on the floor, feeling too ashamed to face anyone.
As she thought about it, she began to sob.
"Why are you crying?" Yun Yang got up quickly and asked in confusion, "I was the one who was beaten up … Why are you crying when you're the one who beat someone up?"
Ji Ling whimpered, "It's none of your business!"
"I don't want to either …" Yun Yang's words triggered another wave of anger, but he was still oblivious to it. "But this is my room. If someone hears you crying here, they'll think that I've …"
Ji Ling sprung up and choked Yun Yang's neck, her face flushed red as she said through gritted teeth, "Do you dare continue?"
"Ugh … let go … I can't breathe …" Yun Yang rolled his eyes.
Ji Ling finally let go. Yun Yang covered his neck and coughed for a while. Rolling his eyes, he said, "Just a little more …"
Ji Ling snorted.
"Speaking of which, why did you come to my place so late at night?" Yun Yang's tone turned serious as the alarm was lifted. He could clearly feel that Ji Ling was suspicious of him just now.
After rambling on and on, Yun Yang could also feel that Ji Ling no longer suspected him of killing Ximen Wandai.
Of course, it was time to discuss the matter now.
"It's all because of you." Ji Ling snorted, her tone even colder. "I heard that Ximen Wandai had sent someone to kill your father … so I've been paying attention there. I didn't expect to see a commotion there, so I went over to take a look and found out that Ximen Wandai is dead …"
"I had nothing better to do. If the Ximen family were to vent their anger on you, they would find trouble with you." Ji Ling snorted and said, "I came over to tell you, but you weren't home …"
Yun Yang's eyes were filled with warmth.
How could he not know that this young lady was concerned about him?
She had already been hurt by him, but she still paid attention to the news here. Once there was news, she still came to inform him. Yun Yang understood immediately.
This girl was not trying to trick him from the start. I just felt that I had nothing else to say, so I purposely did this as an opening remark to prove … that I wasn't here to inform you of something! I am here to investigate a case …
This was the subtle sentiment of a young girl.
"Thank you!" Yun Yang took in a light breath and said solemnly, putting away his frivolous demeanor.
Ji Ling was not used to his sudden seriousness. She was stunned for a moment before replying, "You're welcome."
"Anyway, that's what's happening now. Ximen Wandai's death has driven the Ximen family crazy. "
Ji Ling said hurriedly, "You have to be careful."
"I'm leaving."
Ji Ling lowered her head, the domineering aura she had when she was riding on top of Yun Yang and pummeled him was nowhere to be seen.
Yun Yang's leisurely voice came from behind, "Yun Yang is not an insensible person. If there's a chance in the future, I will definitely repay you for your kindness."
Ji Ling snorted and said, "Who wants you to repay me?"
Suddenly, she was stunned and turned to say, "However, I do have something that I need your help with."
Yun Yang was stunned.
I just said I'll repay you, and you really have something you need my help with? He braced himself and said, "Please speak, young lady."
Ji Ling bit her lip and said, "I have an elder brother who has been missing for many years. My family has searched the entire Tianxuan Continent, but we couldn't find any news of him. I heard that he appeared in Tiantang City two years ago."
Yun Yang heaved a sigh of relief and asked, "What's your elder brother's name?"
Ji Ling said, "My elder brother is Ji Lingfeng. He's twenty-five this year. He's not very tall, very skinny, and there's a dimple on the left side of his face when he smiles. He's … he's … he's not … he's not … he's definitely a good person."
She told Yun Yang about her elder brother's situation in detail and even took out a portrait.
Yun Yang unfurled the portrait and was immediately captivated by it with just a glance.
Amidst the white snow, a man dressed in green stood with his arms behind his back. He stood tall and straight, looking into the distance with a determined gaze. He carried a sword with the hilt of a dragon's head, exuding an aura of carefreeness. It was as if he could ride the wind in this snow-filled sky if he wanted to.
The man looked solemn, but his carefreeness seemed to be ingrained in his bones. As for the painter, his attainments in painting were extremely high, and he was able to portray this kind of charm.
In terms of painting, this was a rare piece of art.
However, the more Yun Yang looked at the man in the painting, the more familiar he felt. The man's face, demeanor, physique, accessories, and weapons were all things that he had seen before.
However, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity and intimacy. He could not help but stare at the man for a long time, frowning in thought.
Ji Ling became nervous when she saw Yun Yang's expression. "You've seen him before? Have you seen this person before? "
Yun Yang's train of thought was interrupted. He shook his head and said in confusion, "I've never seen this person before, but why do I feel … feel …"
"What do you feel?" Ji Ling pressed on.
"I feel … he seems very familiar …" Yun Yang frowned. "But I can't recall anything at this moment. Besides, I don't have any impression of this face …"
Ji Ling's eyes shone as she said, "Think carefully …"
Yun Yang racked his brain, thinking about everyone he had met since he could remember. Finally, he shook his head and said helplessly, "No impression … That's strange!"
Logically speaking, there was no reason for him to forget someone who could give him such a feeling.
But why couldn't he remember?
Ji Ling bit her lip and looked at him quietly. After a long time, she said, "If you ever remember or meet this person, please tell me. This is my elder brother! My only family in this world. "
Yun Yang agreed hurriedly.
Ji Ling excused herself with a heavy heart, but she did not forget to roll up the painting and take it with her.
Looking at Ji Ling's silhouette, Yun Yang was still thinking about the painting. The person in the painting was very familiar …
His state of mind should not be disturbed by anything, but when he saw the painting, he could clearly feel that his heart was in a mess.
