On the sofa in the living room, a man held a teacup in his hand and carefully tasted it. His movements were full of elegance, but it gave people a feeling of unreality.
Wan Qianqian, who followed the servant to the living room, glanced at the figure. Her bright eyes narrowed subconsciously, and her footsteps unconsciously slowed down. Her gaze was fixed on the back of the head.
After half a minute, Wan Qianqian finally put away her almost uncontrollable emotions. She forced a faint smile on her face and continued to move her footsteps that had just stopped. As she walked, she said in a mocking and sarcastic voice, "Why are you here?"
"To find you." After hearing the voice, Ling Yuxuan's movements of drinking tea also slowed down. He gently put the teacup back on the coffee table in front of him, and his voice was so calm that no change in his emotions could be heard.
Soon, Wan Qianqian walked to the side of the sofa and stood straight in front of Ling Yuxuan. The frost that seeped out of her heart gradually appeared on her face, and she didn't even have the intention to hide it.
"You still dare to step into the Gu family's door." Looking at that handsome face full of calm and indifferent expression, this made Wan Qianqian feel very uncomfortable, and the little bit of grievance that she had in the past few days exploded here.
The extremely strong sense of disgust and sarcasm still couldn't shake the disguise on Ling Yuxuan's face. Instead, his thin lips swept up a faint smile. He slightly raised his head to look at Wan Qianqian, and his eyes wandered between her and the sofa, meaning for her to sit down.
That appearance made Wan Qianqian feel particularly disgusted no matter how she looked at it. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, Ling Yuxuan let out that light laugh again. She didn't know what he was laughing about. Miraculously, however, Wan Qianqian's thoughts of leaving dissipated. She looked at Ling Yuxuan with a puzzled expression.
His brown eyes were full of confidence as if he knew from the beginning that this would be the result. The feeling of being controlled made the smile on Wan Qianqian's face slightly stiffen. "Ling Yuxuan, what do you want?"
Wan Qianqian, who didn't get an answer for a long time, angrily sat on the sofa under his gaze. Her whole face was taut as if she was a bomb that could explode at any time. She crossed her arms and stared angrily at Ling Yuxuan's calm face.
"I heard that Lu Yunxue hid Gu Tanfeng?" Ling Yuxuan, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke. His slightly raised eyebrows were full of firmness.
The worry that had been hovering in Wan Qianqian's heart for the past few days was suddenly mentioned. Her delicate body slightly stiffened at that moment, and her eyes were dull for a second or two.
"Do you know where he is?" A bold guess flashed in Wan Qianqian's mind. She directly stood up from the sofa and unconsciously raised her voice several times. Her voice echoed faintly in the large and empty living room.
Ling Yuxuan didn't answer Wan Qianqian vaguely. He clearly shook his head slightly. That action obliterated the little hope that Wan Qianqian had accumulated with great difficulty. All the strength in her body seemed to be drawn out at that moment, and she fell weakly onto the soft sofa.
Then, Ling Yuxuan's sharp gaze suddenly stopped on Wan Qianqian. With a somewhat magnetic and hoarse voice like that of a demon, he said, "Ling Feng is already dead."
After waking up, Wan Qianqian had a rough understanding of some changes in the Ling Mansion. But at this time, when Ling Yuxuan said it so softly, she felt very frightened. His voice was so faint that it seemed to come from the distant sky.
The horror reached the bottom of Wan Qianqian's heart, and a trace of fear gradually crawled out from the depths of her soul. Those memories of the past also began to surface in her mind. That trace of fear also urged her to straighten up that little bit of fear and courage. She slightly twitched the corner of her mouth and said, "So, your purpose today?"
"Sister, now the entire Ling Family is yours, but now the Ling Family is besieged on all sides. You have to be careful." The corner of Ling Yuxuan's mouth was still gently curved. That elegant and gentlemanly appearance made Wan Qianqian vaguely see Ling Feng's shadow in it.
His words were already very clear. If Wan Qianqian continued to pretend that she didn't understand, it would be meaningless. Her delicate face darkened bit by bit, and at this moment, her bright and beautiful eyes became all kinds of flickering.
Secretly making a decision in her heart, Wan Qianqian took a deep breath, then tightly pursed her pink and tender red lips. After two or three seconds, she softly said, "I understand what you mean, but I only have one condition. I want information about Gu Tanfeng's current location."
From the beginning, Wan Qianqian had never thought of fighting with Ling Yuxuan for the entire Ling Family, but it didn't mean that she would easily give it to Ling Yuxuan. At least, she still believed in Ling Yuxuan's ability.
Ling Yuxuan combined Ling Feng's sinister and cunning, and at the same time, he also had his original shrewdness and negotiating ability. After this war, she found that this brother of hers, who was sometimes violent and sometimes elegant, was the most difficult to see through.
After calming down, Wan Qianqian could more or less guess some things. Ling Yuxuan must have some kind of cooperation with Gu Tanfeng, which was why he dared to walk in so openly.
"Okay, I promise you." Ling Yuxuan didn't even have time to think before replying. His reaction speed was extremely fast.
At that moment, Wan Qianqian had a strange feeling. She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly and look at Ling Yuxuan, her scrutinizing gaze constantly wandering around him. Could it be that from the beginning, Ling Yuxuan had already calculated all of this, intentionally or unintentionally mentioning Gu Tanfeng, for this purpose?
At this time, this was the biggest feeling in Wan Qianqian's heart at this time. But she didn't bother about it anymore, because Ling Yuxuan had cleverly grasped what she wanted the most at this time.
"Young Madam …" The servant from just now appeared at the door, hesitant and uneasy. Her petite face was full of unease, and she lowered her head deeply, as if she didn't dare to raise it.
"What's wrong?" Keenly aware of the change in her mood, Wan Qianqian frowned slightly. The skin between her brows formed a shallow wrinkle, and a bad premonition also surged from the bottom of her feet to her heart, and her heartbeat unknowingly sped up.
In the next second, the servant twisted her body, raised her head slightly, and said in a muffled voice, "Young Master Xu is here, and he said he was looking for you."
Xu Changjun! When this name flashed across Wan Qianqian's mind, her heart was so happy that it was about to burst into fireworks. The corners of her mouth subconsciously drew a high arc, revealing a few pearly white teeth.
But immediately after, that bright smile froze on her delicate face, because she clearly felt that the surrounding air seemed to have suddenly cooled down. Wan Qianqian's head turned mechanically to Ling Yuxuan, and when she looked at him, her eyes constantly flashed with confusion.
According to the information she had, the Ling family seemed to be in a business war with the Xu family, and both sides were openly and secretly suppressing each other.
Before Wan Qianqian could ask the servant to take Xu Changjun somewhere else, a burning gaze came from the door, and the atmosphere gradually became gloomy.
"Changjun, why are you here?" Of all times, the low pressure in the air continued to drop, almost falling to the freezing point! Wan Qianqian, who wanted to resolve this awkward situation, forced a gentle smile on her face. Her beautiful eyes blinked innocently as she looked at Xu Zhangjun at the door.
"I came to see you, but I didn't expect you to be entertaining a guest." Xu Changjun's voice was hoarser and deeper than before, as if he had not had a good rest for a long time, and his words hid a bone-piercing chill.
A chill surrounded Wan Qianqian's heart, and the wrinkles on her beautiful face became even more obvious. A trace of disappointment and complicated feelings flooded the depths of her eyes.
In the past, Xu Changjun would not say such bone-piercing words to her, and at this moment, Wan Qianqian could clearly feel that her already bleeding heart had been ruthlessly scraped by a knife. Fortunately, the pain had already become numb, so it did not show clearly.
"Sister, you have a guest to entertain, so I won't disturb you." Ling Yu Xuan suddenly stood up from the sofa. The carefree expression on his handsome face was nowhere to be seen. Malice and displeasure gradually covered his face.
The contest of momentum between the two men made Wan Qianqian a little dumbfounded. She tried hard to reduce her sense of existence, and slightly moved her feet, trying to get out of the range of this bomb.
At this time, Xu Changjun, who had been standing at the door, walked in their direction. The closer he got, the thinner and more angular face was filled with endless anger, pressing straight at Ling Yuxuan.
Xu Zhangjun's figure finally stopped when he was half a meter away from Ling Yuxuan. There was an obvious scar on his smooth and exquisite forehead. It had already scabbed over, and tender flesh was growing out. At this moment, coupled with his face that was filled with rage, the pink scar immediately became even more ferocious.
"Where the hell is she!" In the next second, Xu Changjun stretched out his hand and directly grabbed Ling Yuxuan's collar, and when the hoarse voice came out, it made people feel a little sad.
Knowing that the two of them had been a little unpleasant to the eye recently, Wan Qianqian did not delve into the reason. At this time, when she heard Xu Changjun's urgent question, her whole delicate face showed a stunned expression, and she stared blankly at the two people whose momentum was about to explode.
Her? Was it Lin Li? What happened to Lin Li? A lot of questions hovered in Wan Qianqian's mind. Could it be that Lin Li also disappeared? Soon Wan Qianqian made a reasonable speculation, and the curiosity on her face became more intense.
"I don't know, and even if I knew, I wouldn't tell you. She didn't look for you because she didn't want to see you." The disguise on Ling Yuxuan's face was shattered at this moment, and his voice was full of playfulness and disdain, and the deeper emotion was probably anger.
