Chapter 1472: Chapter 1465: Yue Tingting Is Leaving

Although they didn’t get any groundbreaking news, the reporters had no intention of leaving Bai’s Group. They staked out nearly 20 hours a day in shifts, waiting downstairs at Bai’s Group, hoping to capture some useful information. As long as they got something valuable, a promotion and a salary increase were just around the corner.

In the sales department of Bai’s Group, inside Lin Qianru’s office.

Mandala lay on the sofa, bored out of her mind, randomly scrolling on a tablet. Her face was full of frustration. It’s been two days since Bai’s Group defeated those guys from Dingtian Group and Jiang Feng Group, and countless reporters had surrounded Bai’s Group, making her afraid to leave. Once she steps outside, she’s immediately surrounded by a swarm of reporters and constant camera flashes, making her worried even when sleeping these past two days about a sudden appearance of a reporter.

After playing with the tablet for a while, Mandala looked at Lin Qianru, who was sitting in the manager’s chair handling files, and said, ”Sister Qian Ru, when do you think that annoying bunch of reporters outside will leave? It’s been two days, and almost 24/7 there’s someone out there. As soon as one person steps out, they’re surrounded by seven or eight reporters. When will this end? Should we get Sister Mei Gui to bring some people to drive those guys away? I can’t take it anymore. If this keeps going, I feel like I’ll go crazy.”

”Manman, just hang in there a bit longer! These reporters are the kings without crowns. They won’t leave until they get what they want. If you chase them away, who knows what they’ll write. Besides, didn’t your brother call yesterday and say he’s coming back with Zhiqing from Jiangnan in a couple of days? Once we hold a press conference, everything will be resolved, just endure for two more days!”

Lin Qianru elegantly tidied her hair, looked up at Mandala, her face gentle as water, with a faint smile on her lips.

”Still a few more days, I have to stay here for several more days, I’m about to suffocate.”

Mandala, a bit annoyed, scratched her hair, her eyes landed on Lin Qianru, her eyes subtly shifted, seemingly thinking of something, suddenly threw the tablet aside casually, jumped off the sofa, ran to the desk, leaned on it with her chin on her hands, and stared at Lin Qianru.

”Manman, why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?” Lin Qianru, feeling Mandala’s gaze, asked with confusion.

”Hehe, Sister Qian Ru, I’ve had a question in my heart for a long time and I want to ask you. Can you answer it and satisfy my little curiosity?” Mandala looked at Lin Qianru with anticipation.

Lin Qianru was slightly taken aback by Mandala’s words: ”What question?”

Hearing what Lin Qianru said, Mandala smirked, eyes filled with intense curiosity, and said, ”How did you end up with my brother? Did you chase after him, or did he chase you? And how did you get my sister-in-law to accept you? Sister Qian Ru, can you tell me? Did you and my sister-in-law ever accompany my brother to bed? How does it feel? Is it really as awesome as it seems in those little movies? Those women seem very comfortable; is it really that enjoyable?”

Mandala blinked her eyes, looking like an inquisitive child as she waited for Lin Qianru’s answer.

Hearing Mandala’s words and seeing her curious face, Lin Qianru’s body trembled, and her pretty face instantly flushed. How was she supposed to answer that?

...

On the other hand, while Bai’s Group was surrounded by countless reporters, in the presidential suite at Suzhou Garden Hotel.

Lu Tianxing lay on the sofa with a relaxed smile, his head resting on Bai Zhiqing’s slender legs, while Yue Tingting sat gently beside him, continually placing fruits from a fruit platter into Lu Tianxing’s mouth.

At this moment, Lu Tianxing’s eyes were half-closed in enjoyment. He didn’t stay at the Lu Family, not because Old Master Lu forbade him, but because he simply didn’t want to. To put it bluntly, besides Old Master Lu, he was only relatively close with Lu Haoyue’s family in the Lu Family. As for the other Lu Family members, he didn’t even want to look at them, fearing he might snap and crush these deceitful people. So he chose not to see them at all, out of sight, out of mind. You feel irritated seeing me, and I feel more irritated seeing you; it’s perfect not to see each other at all.

”This is the life I always wanted, to get drunk with a beauty by my side, and to wield power upon waking, such is life,” Lu Tianxing said with deep emotion as he swallowed the orange Yue Tingting peeled for him.

After dealing with the situation in Jiangnan, he finally felt at peace. Now, only three things weighed on his mind: advancing to the Late Stage of Mythical, seeking justice from the Tang Family, and heading to Beijing to question Ji Xingyun about who the Heavenly God is, to find his whereabouts, and then crush him. With Old Master Lu still alive, not many dared to mess with him at the risk of offending Old Master Lu. He could now say he was carefree.

”Really? To wield power over the world when awake, to rest one’s head upon a beauty’s lap when drunk; it seems one beauty isn’t enough for Lu Tianxing. After all, with your current status as the Third Young Master of the Lu Family, the Crown Prince of Jiangnan, should I find a few more beauties for you, perhaps a few bed-warming maids? What do you say, Third Young Master Lu?” Bai Zhiqing said, looking at Lu Tianxing with a playful, ambiguous expression after hearing his musings.

Feeling Bai Zhiqing’s ambiguous gaze, Lu Tianxing couldn’t help but shiver, feeling a chill creeping down his spine. Bai Zhiqing had genuinely scared him.

Ever since he hugged Mu Qingxue at the Lu Family last time, the past two days had been nothing short of disastrous. Bai Zhiqing went berserk, claiming she would become a woman who excels in both the living room and the kitchen. She started learning to cook from online recipes, and whether intentional or accidental, every dish was either too salty, too sour, or too bitter. To add to this, Bai Zhiqing insisted he taste the dishes, and demanded he finish them. If he didn’t, she would accuse him of not loving or liking her, looking at him with a resentful gaze, as if he had committed an unforgivable crime, forcing him to eat it all.

Over these past days, Lu Tianxing felt like his taste buds no longer belonged to him, almost dying from Bai Zhiqing’s deadly culinary skills.

At this moment, seeing Bai Zhiqing’s ambiguous gaze again, Lu Tianxing couldn’t help but shiver, laughed awkwardly and said, ”Uh, honey, that’s not necessary, I was just joking earlier, please don’t take it to heart.”

”Is that so? I hope so,” Bai Zhiqing replied with a smile devoid of any worldly ambiance.

But this smile, in Lu Tianxing’s eyes, made him shiver again. It was a devil’s smile; seemingly harmless yet lethally piercing.

Yue Tingting sat nearby, listening to the exchange between Bai Zhiqing and Lu Tianxing, a hint of envy flashed in her eyes. She also wanted to be able to act coquettishly by Lu Tianxing’s side fearlessly someday and believed that day would not be far off.

Taking a deep breath, Yue Tingting suppressed the thoughts in her heart, looked at Lu Tianxing, and suddenly said, ”Brother Lu, Sister Zhiqing, I’m here today to say goodbye. I’m leaving Jiangnan.”

”What? Tingting, you’re leaving?”

Hearing Yue Tingting’s words, Lu Tianxing shot up from the sofa, eyes filled with confusion. He had clearly checked Yue Tingting a few days ago, and the Nine Yin Xuan Vein in her body had practically disappeared. There was really no need for her to leave.

”Yes.”

Yue Tingting nodded gently, her beautiful eyes filled with a fierce reluctance: ”It’s my mentor who has come. She found me yesterday and insisted I say my goodbyes today and then leave Jiangnan with her.”

”Your mentor?”

Hearing Yue Tingting’s words, Lu Tianxing frowned slightly: ”But Tingting, isn’t your Nine Yin Xuan Vein almost entirely suppressed? With your current strength, suppressing the Nine Yin Xuan Vein isn’t a big deal. Why would the Xuan Daoist insist you leave?”

”My mentor said that although the Nine Yin Xuan Vein in my body is suppressed by the Xuanyin Technique, it is merely suppressed, not thoroughly refined to become my own strength. All of this will have to wait until I break through to the middle stage of Mythical. Once I break through, my abilities will take another step forward. She worries that being blinded by worldly matters could delay my cultivation, so she wants me to leave with her and return only after I reach the middle stage of Mythical to enter the world and cultivate.”

After she finished speaking, Yue Tingting raised her beautiful eyes gently, cautiously glanced at Lu Tianxing. Being as clever as she was, she clearly understood what her mentor’s words implied. The Nine Yin Xuan Vein is the best cultivation physique and cannot be compromised in body. Once compromised, even possessing such heaven-defying physique characteristics, she could never hope to reach the pinnacle of Martial Artist attainment in this lifetime. Though she longed to stay by Lu Tianxing’s side, she didn’t want to become a burden for him either; she could only make herself stronger so she could continue to stay by his side.

Upon hearing Yue Tingting’s words, Lu Tianxing rolled his eyes, speechless. What did it mean to be afraid Yue Tingting would blind herself with worldly matters and delay cultivation? Just say it was him directly. People who speak in circles to insult others are the most annoying.

”Since your mentor has spoken, be careful then. If something arises that you can’t handle, or if anyone bullies you, call and let me know, I’ll teach them a lesson,” Lu Tianxing said to Yue Tingting.

Though somewhat upset, Lu Tianxing understood the Xuan Daoist’s intentions as well. This was the reason why, despite having time, he hadn’t become too intimate with Yue Tingting—concerned about her future. The Nine Yin Xuan Vein is sought after by countless people, otherwise our foes back then wouldn’t have gone to such lengths to destroy Xuanyin Valley.
