Deliberately Approaching
Chapter 99: Meeting Again

Chapter 99: Chapter 99: Meeting Again

Li Zihan said this with a sense of emptiness inside.

He had indeed approached Tang Xiaowan with an agenda, though it wasn’t exactly espionage; at most, he acted as a messenger and occasionally ensured school safety.

Li Zishen had many subordinates and did not require his younger brother’s intervention, but perhaps due to overprotectiveness, he always feared something might be overlooked, allowing the villain behind the scenes to take advantage.

Thus, regarding the attack on Tang Xiaowan last month in Mei Garden, Li Zishen told Li Zihan everything he knew and could share.

The purpose was simple; he wanted his brother to understand that Tang Xiaowan’s situation was extremely dangerous.

However, at the beginning of school, Li Zihan had incidentally discovered that Tang Xiaowan could run extremely fast, akin to flying, and her Reflexes in dodging obstacles were also far superior to those of ordinary people, which led to his later idea of becoming her apprentice.

"What are you nervous about?"

"Me? Nervous? I’m just eager to finish dinner and watch a TV series. Didn’t we almost find out who... you know, that person..."

Tang Xiaowan looked at Li Zihan’s frantic scratching and couldn’t help but laugh.

Go on, make up a good story!

Watching a TV series, huh? I bet you’re secretly playing games!

I guess you couldn’t even articulate what’s going on in the show.

I don’t know how you managed to dazzle all those girls at school, with this intelligence and error-prone behavior, you wouldn’t last three episodes in a drama.

"Alright, alright, I get it, let’s eat!"

Li Zihan grinned foolishly, "Oh, let’s have fish, eating more fish is good for the brain; it must be tough having to memorize vocabulary for English class every day, eat more fish, it’s good for you."

"Yeah, it indeed is good for the brain, you should eat more too."

The two of them continued to dine, alternating chopsticks, as a way to conceal their little schemes.

...

During the elective class in the afternoon, Tang Xiaowan once again skipped it and sneaked off to Jinyuan Academy to continue working on her three-story detached house.

"When can we get the property title?"

"If it’s fast, probably just before the National Day."

"Don’t they have people for that? Can’t it be any faster, still half a month to go?"

"That’s already considered fast."

Tang Xiaowan pouted her lips, went to the small courtyard, and decided to trim the rose beside the wrought iron fence a bit neater.

"Tangtang, we meet again."

A slovenly yet familiar voice came from behind Tang Xiaowan.

Before turning around, she flashed a wicked smile.

Oh my, this guy finally decided to show up; is he a cat? I didn’t hear a sound just now.

"Wow, what a coincidence, you’re in Jin City too?"

Leng Lingxiao smiled, "I live here."

"You, live here?"

"Yes, indeed, quite a coincidence. I’m right in front of you, building 28, so we’ll see each other often now."

Tang Xiaowan: "..."

Such a coincidence, our buildings are next to each other!

Could he be the mastermind behind my property purchase?

Yes, he definitely has the means!

But what’s his motive? Like Li Zishen, does he admire my talents and my stunning beauty, and wants to marry me?

Ah, I’m not that exceptional, I shouldn’t be so vain like Li Zishen, self-praising.

With that thought, Tang Xiaowan suddenly turned around and looked at the house, becoming irritated after a few seconds.

Why isn’t he coming out, didn’t he see?

That’s impossible, he’s right in the living room.

Cheng Shi, oh Cheng Shi, you’re always so alert, how could you be so blind now?

However, at this moment, Leng Lingxiao cheerfully spoke, "Tangtang, come here, give me the scissors. This rough work is for us men, be careful not to hurt your hand."

"Thank you, but I prefer to do it myself."
