Chapter 879: Explain

“I…” Nangong Lengyu did not know when Ling Sheng had left. When she had been hugged, she had thought it was Sheng Sheng.

When she regained her senses and kicked him away, she finally realized that she was not around. After calming down a little, her eyes turned cold abruptly. “Where’s Sheng Sheng?”

“How would I know?” Huo Ci was not in a good mood as his handsome face remained cold. He had nearly been kicked to death. His organs were hurting so much that they had twisted, but the heat still kept rising and tormenting him.

She was very strong. If she had attacked him ferociously, he would have lost half his life. If he had not been lucky and reacted quickly, he might have had to go to the hospital.

When Ling Sheng and Jun Shiyan rushed over, they saw one of them sitting on the bed and the other standing on the ground. Sparks flew in the air, and a big fight was about to break out.

“Father, Auntie Yu, the two of you…” Upon seeing the situation in front of her, Ling Sheng was dumbfounded. She swept the duo with a complicated look.

Had they slept together while she was out and about with the Third Master?

Pooh, pooh, pooh (spitting sound)! What was he thinking? That was definitely impossible!

A fight was about to break out between the two of them. Exactly what had happened in this short period of time?

“Nothing!”

The duo replied in unison. Their reply was astonishingly identical.

In the next moment, Ling Sheng sensed the death stares of the two big shots. She sensed danger immediately and gave Jun Shiyan a look before turning around to escape.

Huo Ci’s gaze was dangerous as he gritted his teeth and looked at the duo. His lips curled up into a cold smile, “Where did you go so late at night?”

Nangong Lengyu’s beautiful face was frosty, and her expression was cold. “The two of you, explain!”

The conflict had successfully been averted.

Ling Sheng was dumbfounded. She only felt her scalp tingle. No, the two of you can continue fighting. We won’t interfere. We’ll leave now.

Sob sob sob, what bad luck! Why had the two of them turned their attention to them in unison?

Jun Shiyan’s expression was very calm as he looked at the duo in front of him and said, “Sheng Sheng said that the stars outside look very nice. This is a rare opportunity so we went out to take a look.”

Huo Ci shot him a death glare. Do you f*cking think I believe you?

Nangong Lengyu looked at Ling Sheng. “Sheng Sheng, right?”

Ling Sheng forced herself to nod. She had not expected that such a thing could still happen when she had only gone out for a short walk. She was spouting nonsense. “Mom, it’s true. The night sky here is really beautiful. I saw on the news that there’s a Leonids meteor shower today, so we went out to try our luck.”

Nangong Lengyu’s icy, serious, and beautiful eyes suddenly flashed with obvious surprise. Her heart softened into a mess when she heard her call her mom. She no longer cared about if they had been watching the stars and the moon. When she saw her barefooted in a pair of slippers, only heartache remained. “It’s so cold outside. Do you see that?”

Ling Sheng shook her head and shivered cooperatively. “No.”

“Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and come to bed.” Nangong Lengyu frowned. When she saw the little girl trembling from the cold, her heart ached even more.

Huo Ci’s lips curled up coldly as he shot her a faint look. This brat. She was really good at pretending. The certain person who believed her was probably a fool!

Looking at stars and moon? Who knew what had she gone out to do in the middle of the night?

“Sister Yu, the both of you should go to bed early then,” Jun Shiyan smiled gently. When he saw that the young lady had already climbed into bed and gotten under the covers, his eyes became even more doting.

Nangong Lengyu glared at him reproachfully but could not be bothered to say anything either. However, it was so cold outside that there was nothing the duo could do.

She had just touched it, but the bed beside her was still warm. She had not been gone for long, so she had only just left when that scumbag Huo Ci came. It had been a short period of time so there was no way they could sneak around them secretly.

Huo Ci’s chest hurt, and there was a salty bloody taste in his throat. His body felt hot. When he reached the door, he could not help but look behind him out of the corner of his eye. Hot blood rushed to the top of his head like magma, burning him as he strode out.

“Father-in-law, where are you going?” Jun Shiyan shouted.

Huo Ci turned around with a cold smile and pointed at him ferociously. “Who the f*ck is your father-in-law? Be careful not to let me catch you. Otherwise, I’ll break your legs next time!”

Jun Shiyan smiled casually and asked again, “Mr. Huo, do you feel anything strange?”

Huo Ci’s eyes reddened instantly. When he turned around, his expression was murderous. “Third Master Jun, what the f*ck did you do?”

Jun Shiyan was very innocent. “Sheng Sheng told me that the alcohol you drank tonight was deer whip wine. I asked An Yan to find some medicine. He should be back soon.”

As soon as he finished speaking, An Yan entered from the courtyard. Upon seeing Huo Ci blocking the door, he handed him a small jade bottle respectfully. “Sixth Master, the Third Master asked me to look for this. It’s very effective.”

Huo Ci was extremely unhappy, but the abnormality in his body forced him to compromise temporarily. After taking the medicine and eating it, he tried to seek revenge, looking to pick a fight. “You’re the Third Master, and I’m the Sixth Master. Am I a generation younger than you?”

Jun Shiyan smiled. “Father-in-law, what are you talking about? No matter what, the word ‘six’ is bigger than the word ‘three’. Of course, you’re one generation older than me.”

Only then was Huo Ci satisfied inwardly. He turned around and looked at An Yan. “Did you hear that?”

An Yan said respectfully, “Sixth Master is right. I’ll keep that in mind.”

…

The next morning, Ling Sheng had just gotten up when she saw that Jun Shiyan and Huo Ci were already coming in from outside.

The duo even looked quite harmonious. She did not know why they had gone out. It was very foggy in the morning, and the hair on their temples and foreheads was a little wet.

When the two men, who already possessed elegant bearing, walked in one after another, the eyes lit up.

However, her father had his head held high and his chest puffed out as he strode forward self-assuredly. He looked as though he was the most arrogant person in the world. This made the Third Master appear even more calm and indifferent.

Jun Shiyan was still holding a few plastic bags in his hand. He smiled and said, “The auntie selling breakfast on the street said that you like eating these.”

“Did you go out to buy breakfast?” Ling Sheng felt a little strange. When had her father given a good face to the Third Master? Why had the two of them gone out together?

“I went to your mother’s grave with Father-in-Law,” Jun Shiyan explained. He placed the breakfast he had bought on the table and took them out one by one.

Ling Sheng had not expected her father to really go to the cemetery. He even got up early. She looked at him and smiled sweetly. “Thank you, Dad.”

Huo Ci only gave her a disdainful look before taking the chopsticks Jun Shiyan handed him and picking up a small steamed bun. He even shouted into the bedroom, “Ling Xiaoqi, quickly get out here and eat breakfast. Look at the time.”

The taste was not bad. The minced mutton stuffing was quite fresh. When they bought it, the shop owner had said that it was a lamb slaughtered by him. He did not know what flavor Ling Xiaoqi, that brat, wanted but the latter simply liked mutton.
