Chapter 1038: Holding a Grudge
Chapter 1038: Holding a Grudge
Ling Feng was taken aback and blurted out, "Why?"
When Yang Guang saw him, he said, "I like Sister Chen Yan, so I want her to be my backer!"
"This..."
As soon as Chen Yan heard it, she was dumbfounded and looked at Ling Feng for help, not knowing what to say.
As a result, Ling Feng chuckled and said, "Alright, you can choose Chen Yan too. I originally wanted to take you as my disciple, but I have no objections if you want to follow her. From now on, just call me ’Master Uncle’!"
"What?"
Yang Guang’s voice went up by octaves, and he turned his head to look at Chen Yan, "Sis, is this uncle your master?"
"Uh, you could say that!" Chen Yan said somewhat awkwardly.
She knew Ling Feng was duping Yang Guang, but what he said wasn’t too much; after all, it was thanks to Ling Feng and Zhou Yi introducing her that she was able to join the security bureau. In this sense, calling him master wasn’t too far-fetched.
After Chen Yan admitted it, Yang Guang was confused.
Between a disciple and a granddisciple, he obviously knew which was a better choice.
But he actually had a high opinion of himself and genuinely had no intention of seeking a master to learn from. The so-called seeking Chen Yan as a backer was also just hoping she would provide him with physical protection.
So after hesitating for a moment, Yang Guang shook his head, "Forget it, I’d rather pay for a bodyguard!"
"That works too, but as the saying goes, ’you can’t see what’s in a person’s heart.’ There aren’t many people in the world as kind-hearted as us; consider it for yourself!"
Ling Feng said this and gave Chen Yan a wink. Then the two of them stood up, ready to head back to their guest room.
As a result, Yang Guang immediately followed them like a shadow.
"You’ve got money now, so why are you still following us?" Ling Feng asked.
"The money I’ve made is for emergencies. You all have a place to stay, what’s the big deal if I mooch one night?" Yang Guang asked innocently.
"Why should I let you mooch off my room?" Ling Feng demanded.
Yang Guang’s eyes darted around, and then he chuckled, "Come on, uncle, don’t be like that. I’m just a little kid, do you have the heart to let me sleep on the streets?"
Ling Feng was speechless and looked at him seriously, "Are you really only twelve years old?"
"Yeah, don’t believe me? Look at my household registration book!"
Yang Guang was about to dig through his pockets to get it, but Ling Feng quickly stopped him, "No need, I believe you, but your IQ definitely doesn’t seem like that of a twelve-year-old, more like a little monkey!"
Yang Guang shrugged, "Good genetics, I guess!"
Ling Feng didn’t want to argue with him any further, so he nodded and said, "Okay, you can stay in my room tonight, but I’m only giving you one night to think about it. If you decide not to follow me, then you’ll have to leave in the morning and fend for yourself!"
"Sure, I’ll let you know first thing in the morning!" Yang Guang promised earnestly.
So the three of them left the restaurant and returned to the guest rooms upstairs together.
Although Yang Guang was not of age, Ling Feng wasn’t going to let him sleep in Chen Yan’s room, so he directly carried him over to his own room.
After setting his feet on the ground, Yang Guang looked at him dissatisfied, "You’re too violent, uncle. I never said I had to stay in Sister Chen Yan’s room!"
"I know what you stinky brat is thinking. You were already chatting her up on the train, so I know you’re already eyeing beauties, hence the extra caution!" Ling Feng said.
"Morality! Judging others by your own standard!"
Yang Guang gave Ling Feng a heavy glare, then flopped onto the sofa in a huff, saying nothing more.
Ling Feng couldn’t stay mad at a kid, so he sat down on the sofa with a smirk and asked, "What can you do?"
"Nothing at all!"
Yang Guang glared at him and had no desire to continue the conversation.
Seeing this, Ling Feng could only smile and say: "Alright then."
After finishing speaking, he stood up intending to go back to the bedroom, but just then the phone rang.
Ye Qian called and asked: "Mr. Ling, where are you?"
"I’m at the Great Wall Hotel, what about you?" Ling Feng asked.
"I’m in the city center now. Is it convenient if I come over to find you?" Ye Qian asked.
Ling Feng was taken aback: "You’re coming specially to see me?"
"No, I’ve completed my task, and the boss has given me some time off!" Ye Qian said.
"Uh...."
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng was utterly speechless and then said with a bitter smile: "Then come on over. I’ve booked two rooms, so you can stay with Chen Yan!"
"Okay, I’ll be there in ten minutes!"
After Ye Qian finished speaking, she hung up the phone.
Ling Feng shook his head, thinking to himself, Old Han, oh Old Han, you really do things thoroughly, clearly using Ye Qian and then sending her away!
When she arrives, I have to ask; it’s not right to work for someone without any compensation. If Old Han didn’t offer her anything, I’ll have to have a serious talk with him later!
As he was thinking this, Yang Guang looked at him and asked: "Uncle, from what you were saying on the phone, there’s another sister coming over later, right?"
"What do you mean ’another’? Weren’t there three of us to begin with?" Ling Feng said.
"Oh, it’s that sister!"
Yang Guang suddenly understood, and then said: "Her facial features are quite unique, almost similar to Sister Chen Yan’s fate, that’s really strange. Why are all the people around you so fortunate?"
Ling Feng looked at him and asked with a heh heh laugh: "So what’s my fate like then?"
"You? Well, you have a bit of an emperor’s look, but it’s a pity, with a face full of peach blossoms, definitely not a serious person!" Yang Guang said with a sneer.
"Hey, you little rascal, I’m providing you with accommodation and food, and you’re all riled up at me!"
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng became unhappy and then angrily said: "You just wait, Ye Qian is also skilled in Taoist arts. When she gets here, I’ll have her teach you a lesson!"
"Scared?"
Yang Guang rolled his eyes grandly, then sneered: "Feng Shui Metaphysics and Taoist arts are two different things, you’re thinking too much!"
As the two were bickering, Ye Qian had already arrived at the door.
Ling Feng opened the door and asked: "Have you had dinner yet?"
"I’ve eaten at the base, oh, why are you here?" Ye Qian asked in surprise when she saw Yang Guang.
"Chen Yan picked him up on the way." Ling Feng said from the side.
"Is that so? Such a coincidence!" Ye Qian said.
At this moment, Yang Guang approached Ye Qian with a cheeky grin, took her hand and said sweetly, "Sister, you’re so pretty!"
"You’re pretty cute too!" Ye Qian said.
Ling Feng rolled his eyes beside them, thinking this kid at such a young age is already so sweet-talking, what will he become when he grows up?
But now wasn’t the time to talk about this. He turned to Yang Guang and said: "Go next door to find Chen Yan. Ye Qian and I have things to discuss. You can come back later!"
"I’m not going. Just now you didn’t let me go, and now you’re kicking me out, what am I?" Yang Guang put his hands on his hips and asked angrily.
With a fierce look, Ling Feng said: "You’re quite grown-up, don’t hold grudges like a woman. Hurry up, or I’ll spank you!"
