Ning Lingyu had never eaten so much in her life. Her stomach was normally flat, but it was swelling up a little now. She simply couldn’t take another bite. However, she couldn’t bear to put down her chopsticks either.

The beauty just had lots of food at once. She didn’t even realize that Ling Yun had yet to pick up his chopsticks.

Realizing that, Ning Lingyu felt a little regret as she said, “Ah, Brother, there’s so little left. You...”

Ling Yun was sitting between Qin Dongxue and Ning Lingyu. Wiping away a snow-white piece of shrimp meat on Ning Lingyu’s lip, he smiled. “Don’t worry about me. Brother isn’t hungry. What’s left is enough to fill me up.”

Ling Yun finally began eating and did so at an exceedingly fast speed. Like a tornado sweeping up everything in its path, he finished all the food on the table in ten minutes.

Smiling as she watched Ling Yun, Qin Dongxue’s beautiful gaze seemed to be saying something unfathomable. After he finished, she smiled sweetly as she pulled out a handkerchief for him. She said, “Wipe your mouth...”

Ning Lingyu obediently brought a glass of warm water for Ling Yun to wash down the food. Her dreamy gaze carried respect and happiness.

Ling Yun knew that Qin Dongxue was in a great mood. He couldn’t miss out on such a perfect opportunity to bring up his request and “take a few days off”.

In order to spend time with Goddess Lin at night, Ling Yun had to get through Qin Dongxue somehow. Otherwise, he had no other way to do so.

“Aunty... that, tonight...” Ling Yun wiped his lips after his meal and began his words.

“There’s something you want, right?” Qin Dongxue’s beautiful eyes stared sternly at Ling Yun. Her bright lips curled up lightly as she spoke sweetly.

On the other hand, Ning Lingyu’s gaze darkened. Her mesmerizing lips pouted as she thought about how her brother wasn’t intending to come home tonight.

“Hehe, as expected of Aunty. I’ve been busy with lots of matters lately. But, it’ll only be for a few nights. After this week, I’ll be back...” Ling Yun smiled as he explained.

Qin Dongxue stared at Ning Lingyu and fell deep into thought. However, she said to Ling Yun telepathically, “Brat, even though I said that you did very well today and I’m proud, do you know how worried Lingyu gets when you’re not at home every day?”

Ling Yun could sense Ning Lingyu’s lingering attachment to him as well. He responded telepathically, “Aunty, it’s really just this week. After killing so many people, I have to deal with the consequences, right? I promise that it’s only for this week. After that, I’ll spend lots of time with Lingyu.”

Qin Dongxue gave Ling Yun a look. Sighing lightly, she replied, “Alright, Lingyu and I will give you a week. Go ahead and handle everything you need to. But only for a week!”

Hearing this, Ling Yun was absolutely thrilled. Chuckling, he said, “One week is definitely enough. When the time comes, I’ll teach Lingyu to drive too. Right, Lingyu?”

Ning Lingyu obviously realized that there was no way for her to hold Ling Yun back. She bit her lower lip and said, “Brother, you’re always out all day. You have to take good care of yourself so that I... and Aunty, won’t worry.”

Qin Dongxue laughed with a “pfft” after hearing this. Patting Ling Yun’s shoulder with a sweet smile, she said with a warning tone, “Hear that? You’re out there playing all day. How would you know how worried Lingyu is for you all day? If Lingyu’s grades fall because of this, just wait and see what I’ll do to you when you get back!”

Ling Yun nodded continuously to show that he understood. However, Qin Dongxue continued, “But, I have two conditions. First, you must prepare dinner every day. Secondly, you must be contactable at all times so that Lingyu and I won’t worry about you.”

Qin Dongxue had been completely bought over with a homemade meal from him. She was absolutely in love with his culinary skills. Obviously, she wouldn’t leave such a great chef’s talents alone.

Ling Yun agreed easily and said telepathically to Qing Dongxue, “Aunty, you’ll have a huge surprise when you cultivate tonight!”

The dragon saliva, thousand-year ginseng, and thousand-year Chinese Knotweed were all top-class treasures. They were ingredients that cultivators could only wish for in their dreams. Ling Yun had used all of them in one huge feast. Furthermore, he prepared them with the perfect combination. This obviously created numerous benefits for Qin Dongxue’s cultivation.

Qin Dongxue was also a cultivation maniac. She was a person who used her abilities at all times. Right now, she already had an inkling of what he had done. Hence, she smiled as she nodded without asking more.

It was getting late. Ling Yun was afraid that Lin Menghan was starving alone at home. Hence, he stood up, ready to leave.

Qin Dongxue and Ning Lingyu walked him out until the main entrance. Seeing Ling Yun’s silhouette disappear around the corner, Ning Lingyu finally returned to the mansion while frowning.

Staring deeply at Ning Lingyu, Qin Dongxue returned with her to the mansion. She smiled in a carefree manner as she asked, “Lingyu, miss your brother already?”

Ning Lingyu’s beautiful face began blushing. Fiddling with her clothes, she said in a panic, “That’s not it. Brother hasn’t been home these days. I’ve been so worried...”

Qin Dongxue smiled lightly as she said, “Your brother’s world is something you can’t understand now. Tonight, your aunty will explain some things to you to help you understand. Let’s go!”

...

Using a huge feast, he had successfully exchanged for a week of freedom. Even though Ling Yun still had to return home to prepare dinner every night, he was very satisfied with the outcome. Proud, he began driving his Land Rover at light-speed.

Ling Yun pulled out his phone. As the display lit up, an overwhelming amount of missed calls and messages filled the screen. For a moment, he felt a pang of headache overcome him.

Of those, the senders were Lin Menghan, Xue Meining, Kong Xiuru, Yao Rou, Tang Meng, Tie Xiaohu, Zhang Ling, and others. In such a short amount of time, there were far too many people contacting him.

The number of missed calls and messages from Lin Menghan were obviously the most. Right now, each moment she was apart from Ling Yun was impossibly grueling. Furthermore, an entire afternoon had already passed.

Ling Yun quickly returned her call first, telling her that he would bring dinner for her. He told her to wait patiently at home. With that, Goddess Lin was finally appeased.

Xue Meining, Kong Xiuru, Yao Rou, and Zhang Ling’s messages were about how much they missed him and wanted to meet. Ling Yun didn’t neglect them either. Returning their calls one by one, he made one last call to Tang Meng.

Tang Meng’s information was very shocking. He told Ling Yun that a special investigation for corruption had been launched immediately on Luo Zhong. The problem was even more serious than he had imagined.

Hearing this, Ling Yun simply scoffed. Luo Zhong had dared to take him down in such a manner. If he weren’t a political figure, Ling Yun would have killed him on the spot. Why would he keep him alive until now?

What piqued Ling Yun’s interest was Tang Meng’s information on the loan. This was the second time he had raised this to Ling Yun.

Half a month had already elapsed since the last time Tang Meng brought it up. Back then, after Ling Yun heard that he had to pay interest, he rejected the idea immediately. However, the situation changed this time. Ling Yun felt that it was very feasible.

Luo Zhong had lost all his power. Even if Xie Zhenting and his entire family weren’t going to be physically hurt, they would definitely be implicated for their misdeeds. Praying foolishly for their own safety, they were impossibly selfish.

Li Yifeng was reorganizing a larger power. Right now, the entire Qingshui City government was in his hands. In addition to Tang Tianhao, who was currently the “Acting Director of the Public Security Bureau”, they were more powerful than ever.

Furthermore, Tang Tianhao was unquestionably eyeing the position of the Director of the Public Security Bureau. The words “Acting Director” were something that would be changed at any moment. The only question was when.

On the other hand, Green Dragon’s Boss, Long Kun, had already gifted the entire organization to Ling Yun. Right now, he was guiding Tie Xiaohu on how to take care of matters in Green Dragon.

With that, Ling Yun was said to have had both the government and the underworld in his hands. Saying that he was Qingshui City’s Immortal King wouldn’t be an exaggeration!

Under such a situation, how could Tang Meng suffer a loss in any businesses? If he did, even without Ling Yun making a move, he would simply smash his head into a block of tofu to kill himself.

“How much are you planning to borrow?” Ling Yun asked Tang Meng for a figure casually.

Tang Meng said excitedly, “Not much, I’m thinking of borrowing about one hundred million first. Otherwise, how can I live up to my Heaven and Earth Group?”

One hundred million? Hearing this, Ling Yun was a little shocked. He couldn’t help but think that Tang Meng was way too bold. He asked in a deep voice, “What business are you planning with all that money?”

Tang Meng chuckled. “Brother Yun, you don’t have to worry. We’re definitely doing something that can only earn and not make a loss!”

Ling Yun said, “Fine, do as you deem fit. Anyway, you’re the one doing it. I’ll leave a few words with you. Do not make a loss!”

Tang Meng laughed. “Brother Yun, relax. If I make a loss like this, I’ll personally stab myself in the stomach!”

Ling Yun asked, “One hundred million isn’t a small sum. Can you even borrow that much?”

Tang Meng patted his chest and said, “Brother Yun, please don’t look down on the Provincial Party Secretary and Public Security Director. One hundred million is only the start. When the project is on track, we won’t even have to find a bank, they’ll definitely be fighting to lend us the money then!”

Ling Yun nodded in agreement to Tang Meng’s words. He told Tang Meng that the two of them would find time tomorrow to meet and come up with a plan on what to do next. Then, he hung up.

With Tang Meng’s exhilaration, he wanted to meet Ling Yun right now to talk about what to do and share all about his plans. However, Ling Yun had something even more important to attend to tonight. How would he find time to talk to Tang Meng about all those boring topics?

Ling Yun headed to the city quickly to buy a few tasty dishes. Then, he rushed straight to Luxurious Hot Springs Manor and drove straight to Lin Menghan’s house.

“Hubby!”

Without waiting for Ling Yun to get out of the car, Lin Menghan’s sexy and mesmerizing figure had already appeared at the entrance of the mansion. She was only wearing a silky-white see-through nightdress. The dress had a light ribbon made of silk, was low-cut and see-through. Her beautiful breasts and slender legs stood out against her snow-white skin. With only a look, Ling Yun couldn’t help but stare and feel the heat rise within him.

Ling Yun swallowed his saliva as his fiery gaze traced the steps of Goddess Lin. With his mouth and lips drying up, he said, “Baby, you can walk now? Does it still hurt?”

Watching Ling Yun’s hot gaze trace her body non-stop, Lin Menghan intentionally squeezed her busty chest. Showing off her slender waist, her foxy eyes stared silkily at Ling Yun as she said, “You’re so amazing, how could I not be in pain? But, I can just barely walk now...”
