Chapter 2001: Chapter 1961: Taking Cao Ling

Why did Ye Feng send someone to kill Ye Qiu?

Now that Old Ye has someone investigating, the more they dig, the more shocked they become.

With the Ye family’s connections and Old Ye’s means, getting to the bottom of this is actually very easy.

Meanwhile, Ye Qiu has already driven towards Beidaihe in Qinhuangdao.

As he distanced himself from the Capital City, Ye Qiu realized that the inexplicable pressure the city exerted on him had clearly dissipated.

After driving for more than three hours and arriving at Beidaihe in Qinhuangdao, it was already past six in the evening.

The weather wasn’t rainy, and there was no typhoon; the temperature here had dropped significantly, no wonder there are so many high-end retreats here.

Of course, there are quite a lot of high-end villas being developed here now.

Ye Qiu didn’t plan to stay in a hotel, but was prepared to stay in a villa instead.

There are indeed villas close to the sea and near Beidaihe here, and the rental price is similar to those of five-star hotels.

However, speaking of food, there’s more seafood here, and it’s a bit cheaper too.

As it was dinnertime, Ye Qiu drove directly to a seafood food stall in Beidaihe.

Upon arriving there, when Ye Qiu and the four ladies got out of the car, Cao Ling received a call from Cao Long asking, "Where are you?"

"Brother Cao Long, we’re over here in Beidaihe."

Cao Long didn’t expect that Dr. Ye would actually go to Qinhuangdao.

"We’ll come over too."

To Ye Qiu, the Capital City was a place of trouble. It was better to leave for now.

According to Cao Long’s thinking, Ye Qiu should return to Jinling as soon as possible. Anyway, with Cao Ling’s grandfather’s status in the Jinling Military Region, no one there could harm Ye Qiu. But in the Capital City, it wasn’t certain.

By the time Cao Long and Mr. Zhou drove over, Ye Qiu and the four girls, including Lin Xiang, were already seated in the backyard of this food stall.

A waitress brought the menu, and Ye Qiu found that everything was seafood, and the prices weren’t very high.

Although this is also a tourist city, the seafood isn’t very expensive because it’s near the sea.

Items like sea crabs were more than half the price of those in the Capital City.

"Order two portions of everything."

Ye Qiu said.

The waitress left with the menu, and Lin Xiang said, "Will it be okay to eat so much seafood?"

Eating seafood with beer can easily cause gout.

Moreover, seafood is mostly cold and damp in nature, and consuming too much isn’t good for women.

Lin Xiang was a bit worried.

"With me, a doctor, here, what are you worried about?"

Lin Xiang thought about it and agreed.

Considering Ye Qiu’s mysterious medical skills, there was nothing to worry about.

Half an hour later, the waitress brought the dishes one after another, over twenty types of seafood, with two portions of each; they probably couldn’t finish them all.

When Cao Long and Mr. Zhou arrived, it was already past ten in the evening, and Ye Qiu and Cao Ling were already quite full.

As Cao Long and the others just started ordering, Ye Qiu was prepared to pay the bill and leave, but Cao Long insisted they wait and settle together.

These people seemed to be from the Capital City and weren’t to be trifled with, so the owner here was very respectful to them.

When Ye Qiu and Cao Ling left the seafood restaurant, they headed to the villa.

The villa had been rented for six thousand a night, which was about the same price as a five-star hotel, but it seemed much quieter.

Ye Qiu drove there with the four girls and went inside.

This villa had three floors with five rooms, so everyone could have their own room.

Moreover, Ye Qiu noticed the temperature here was about twenty degrees, which was much cooler compared to the thirty or forty degrees in the Capital City.

Here, even without air conditioning, you could sleep comfortably at night, no wonder so many leaders liked to stay in the retreats around here.

The villa Ye Qiu rented wasn’t part of a retreat, but it was near the state cadre retreat and managed in a uniform way.

So, it was very quiet and the security was quite good.

As Cao Ling and the others went to take a bath and prepare to rest, Liu Lingxiu came over and asked, "Ye Qiu, will you sleep with me or alone? Or should I sleep with Xiaomai?"

"I’ll sleep alone."

Ye Qiu still wanted to have some intimate moments with Cao Ling, fearing he wouldn’t get another chance once they returned to Jinling.

"Then I’ll sleep with Xiaomai tonight."

Liu Lingxiu left, and Ye Qiu turned on the TV in the first-floor living room, watching idly.

Actually, if he was going to stay here long-term, buying a villa was a good idea, but he knew it wasn’t possible, and in a few days, he might have to return.

As for his previous identity, Ye Qiu knew that the Ye family would soon uncover the truth.

Actually, even without digging, when Ye Qiu learned he wasn’t the biological child of Ye Weidong and his wife, he knew his previous identity was probably extraordinary.

Indeed, he didn’t expect it to be related to the Ye family in the Capital City.

But this identity was of no use to Ye Qiu.

No matter how prestigious an identity, it didn’t matter.

He wanted to see that Ye Feng get tormented to death by illness.

When Cao Ling and the others finished their bath and came downstairs, it was almost eleven at night.

"Ye Qiu, where are we going tomorrow?"

"Get up early tomorrow, and I’ll take you to see the Sunrise over the Sea."

Ye Qiu knew these young ladies all had a bit of a romantic side, and taking them to see the Sunrise over the Sea wasn’t a bad idea.

As Cao Ling and the others retreated to their rooms to rest, Cao Ling unexpectedly came back downstairs and said, "My cousin is asking where we’re staying. They can go to the retreat.

Cao Long and Mr. Zhou are children of the Capital City, so if they want to go to a retreat, they really can.

"Just tell them here."

"I told them."

After speaking, Cao Ling glanced at Ye Qiu before returning to her room.

The night was long, and as Ye Qiu looked at the night scenery outside, he was planning to return to his room and continue cultivating, because, according to the current situation, he knew he would soon break through.

But, that look from Cao Ling just now was clearly tempting him.

Could Ye Qiu resist this temptation?

After Ye Qiu finished his bath and saw that the lights in the three rooms of the four girls were all off, he quietly entered Cao Ling’s room.

Cao Ling hadn’t gone to bed yet; she just turned off the light, and she didn’t know if Ye Qiu would come in or not.

She also knew that once they returned to Jinling, there wouldn’t be a chance to go on such a date with Ye Qiu.

"Hey, what are you sneaking around for?" Cao Ling asked with a smile at Ye Qiu.

"Isn’t it because of your hint?"

Cao Ling fell silent upon hearing this.

As Ye Qiu touched Cao Ling’s bed, there was no air conditioning, and with the window open, the sea breeze blowing in was indeed very comfortable.

Soon, there was the sound of rustling.

"Ah!" After an unknown amount of time, Cao Ling felt a momentary pain shooting straight to her brain, knowing that after tonight, she was no longer whole.
