On the other side, Xiao YanXue let out a light snort. She was extremely dissatisfied with how cautious her grandfather was whenever he mentioned that infamous silkpants. If there was anything that could be praised about that silkpants, it would be that he had a good grandmother and a good mother. Which man in the family had a good future?
Xiao FengHan chuckled and pinched Xiao YanXue's nose, "Lass, don't be unhappy. Don't forget, you are still the wager of our two families. Hahaha …"
Xiao YanXue's face turned red as she said with embarrassment and anger, "Grandfather, you are the most shameless. Grandmother of the Ling family is an admirable heroine. However, she has misjudged her precious grandson and underestimated me! Hmph hmph, I can guarantee you that our Xiao family will definitely not lose this bet. You can just wait to receive half of the assets of the Ling family. This is something that is worth paying attention to! Hmph! "
Xiao FengHan burst out into laughter.
Everyone cupped their fists and bade him farewell. Under Xiao FengYang's command, a hundred people mounted their horses at the same time. The horses stood on their hind legs and with a loud neigh, they galloped off!
Sky Bearing! My Xiao family is here! With the eight storms gathering in Sky Bearing, how can our Xiao family not be present?!
Just when the various powers of the continent were busy deploying their troops, the Ling family of Sky Bearing, who was at the center of the storm, was holding a grand welcoming banquet for Mister Qin.
During the banquet, Grandpa Ling reprimanded Ling Tian with disappointment before complaining to Qin Da about how mischievous Ling Tian had been for the past few years. Finally, he requested that as the only teacher that Ling Tian could accept, Qin Da had to discipline Ling Tian even more. He had to make sure that Ling Tian would turn over a new leaf and turn over a new leaf. He had to let Ling Tian be beaten and scolded as long as he was still alive …
During the process of Grandpa Ling's reprimand, Ling Tian lowered his head and did not dare to make a sound. As his parents, Chu Ting's face was filled with shame as she lowered her head. She did not even have the face to eat; she felt that she had lost all face for having such a silkpants son. Ling Xiao, who was by the side, expressed his agreement. He originally wanted to add more weight to the blow, but with a 'sharp' look from Chu Ting's wife, he immediately shut his mouth. He had no choice, this was something that the Ling family had always inherited …
Qin Da had a strange expression on his face. He wanted to laugh but did not dare to. Do I still have to educate him? Stop messing around, ten years ago, I was already unable to educate this grandson of yours. It should be him who should be the one to teach me! With a mouthful of wine in his mouth, his face turned red from holding it in. However, he did not dare to swallow it down, afraid that he would choke and make a fool of himself.
Old Lady Ling, who was the only one who knew the inside story, rolled her eyes at the sky. Occasionally, she would look at Grandpa Ling with both anger and amusement. Seeing that Grandpa Ling was not going to stop nagging, she finally could not help but explode, "Darn old man, are you done yet? Why are you nagging during a meal? No one is scolding you, but you are getting more and more energetic! This is a welcome banquet for Qin Da! Shut up and eat! "
Grandpa Ling was immediately speechless. He raised his wine cup and downed it in a single gulp. It was as though a gag had been placed on his mouth, and he did not say a single word.
After the meal, Mister Qin followed Ling Tian to the courtyard with a stern face, as though he wanted to teach this disappointing disciple of his a lesson. He rubbed his fists, blew his beard and glared at Ling Tian. Seeing this, Grandpa Ling was extremely gratified. With his hands behind his back, he strolled back to his study, waiting for Qin Da's good news.
Just as they entered the small courtyard, Qin Da could not help but burst out into laughter. His white beard trembled, and his old face was like a blooming chrysanthemum. His previous dignified appearance was completely gone. "My Young Noble Ling, you have really hidden yourself well. This old man really regrets not staying here for the past three years and missing out on so many good shows!"
Ling Tian laughed heartily. "Mister, there is no need to feel regretful. As long as you are here, the show will only get better and better." With a faint smile, a mischievous look appeared on his face. "How can charging head-on compare to the pleasure of killing someone from behind? Letting the enemy die without even knowing who their opponent is, making them so depressed that they vomit blood, how satisfying would that be?! Just speaking of being in the dark, manipulating the situation from behind the scenes, the satisfaction of being useless on the surface and causing a storm behind the scenes, this is my true pursuit! Everyone in the world knows me, but in reality, who in the world knows me! Letting my enemies die in ignorance and depression is my greatest pleasure! "Ling Tian shook his head and winked.
"Hahaha …" Qin Da felt that he had laughed more in the past three years than today. Suddenly, he thought of something. "Oh right, you haven't dealt with Ling Kong and his son yet?"
Ling Tian chuckled, "Ling Kong and his son have already unknowingly sunk deep into the mud. Their lives are already in my hands and I can make them disappear without a trace at any time. Originally, all I needed was an opportunity. Now, I just need to wait for the NanGong Family to fight with the two tigers of the Yang Family. Then, it will be time for the Ling Family to be cleansed!"
Qin Da shuddered. Of course, he understood what Ling Tian meant by 'the Ling family to be clean'. He estimated that at least a thousand people would pay the price for Ling Tian's' clean 'plan! And this price would be their lives.
In Mister Qin's impression, Ling Tian was a good person and a good disciple. However, this good person had a limit, and that was that as long as you did not provoke him, you would never be in trouble. This was because Ling Tian was very magnanimous. However, if you were to touch his bottom line, Ling Tian would flip out faster than flipping the pages of a book. In an instant, he would reveal his cruel and vicious side, which would be beyond anyone's imagination!
Ling Tian's tolerance had two aspects. The first was tolerance, and the second was cruel tolerance! Qin Da had a deep understanding of these two aspects!
Ling Tian personally arranged for Qin Da to settle down. However, when he returned, he was surprised to see that the two beauties, Ling Chen and Yu BingYan, were nowhere to be seen. After asking, he found out that his mother, Chu Ting, had sent someone to call the two girls over for a chat. Ling Tian was puzzled. He didn't know what his mother was up to this time. Ever since Old Lady Ling deliberately arranged for Chu Ting to take over the Ling family's business, Ling Tian felt that his mother was becoming more and more difficult to deal with. At first, he thought that his mother was the standard kind of wife and mother. However, after a period of in-depth understanding, he realized that this wasn't the case at all. It seemed that the women of the Ling family were quite tough. Especially after coming into contact with the family business, Chu Ting 'er became even more motivated and fully displayed her outstanding talent. In addition, she had Old Lady Ling's constant support behind her. Chu Ting was now a standard career woman in Ling Tian's eyes.
The Ling family imperceptibly formed an interesting cycle. In the experience of his previous life, Ling Tian's mind was filled with endless ideas for business and business. As the saying goes, even if one hasn't eaten pork, one has seen pigs walk. He casually threw out a few ideas to Old Lady Ling, and every time, Old Lady Ling would exclaim in admiration and treat them as treasures. These ideas were then polished by Old Lady Ling and passed to Chu Ting's wife. Chu Ting was not careless. She didn't just simply follow the prescription and make changes to the application. Very soon, the ideas became shining silver that flowed continuously into the Ling family.
However, Old Lady Ling was still limited to knowing that these ideas came from Ling Tian's "Peerless Celestial" master. Chu Ting's wife had always thought that these ideas came from her wise and profound mother-in-law. Thus, Ling Tian was still deeply hidden behind the scenes until now. However, Ling Tian also felt that these two old and middle-aged women in his family were becoming more and more difficult to deal with. After all, his mother still didn't know the truth. Old Lady Ling would often look at Ling Tian with a probing gaze for a long time. Ling Tian felt a little apprehensive. Say, isn't it normal for a grandmother to look at her grandson? Is there anything to be afraid of?!
Finally, Ling Chen and Yu BingYan returned late. Ling Tian was already about to fall asleep from waiting. Seeing the strange expressions on the two ladies' faces, Ling Tian was jolted awake. He didn't know what his mother had done to cause the two ladies to have such strange expressions.
"Young noble, the Imperial Consort's invitation has been sent to the residence. She is preparing to host a banquet at the Smoky Thea Tower tomorrow. Madam has already agreed to attend the banquet and has prepared some gifts for the Imperial Consort and the various madams." Ling Chen's face was filled with a mischievous smile as she spoke with a strange voice. Obviously, she had guessed Chu Ting's intentions.
"Ah, ever since that year's banquet, didn't mother swear that she would never attend the banquets of the other madams?" Ling Tian asked with doubt.
Madam Chu Ting was the wife of the Sky Bearing War God, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she was the number one madam in the Sky Bearing Empire. Why would she not be willing to gather with the other madams? Could it be that she was putting on airs? That wasn't the case. Madam Chu Ting was virtuous and had a gentle temperament. Naturally, she wasn't someone who liked to put on airs. However, who asked her to have the number one silkpants son in the Sky Bearing Empire? Furthermore, her son's marriage had yet to be settled. Madam Chu Ting was truly worried about her son's marriage and thus shamelessly promoted her son to her sisters in the city. Everyone knew about Ling Tian's' conduct ', and the outcome was obvious!
Wherever Madam Chu Ting went, the other madams with sufficient status would immediately avoid her. While those flies who wanted to climb up the social ladder wanted to offer their daughters to her, Madam Chu Ting was unwilling to do so! Unable to climb up the social ladder, Madam Chu Ting finally made the decision to never attend those banquets again. Firstly, she didn't want others to roll their eyes at her for no reason. Secondly, the Ling family naturally had important matters for Madam Chu Ting to attend to. However, they didn't have the time to attend to such matters. As for what those important matters were, they would be explained later in the story.
"Auntie called me over and asked about sister Wei. I heard that Auntie Wei will also be present tomorrow." Yu BingYan's voice sounded a little strange. If you want to know what happened later, please visit www.qidian.com to read more chapters. Support the author, support the original reading!
