Rebirth! The Assassin's Revenge-Chapter 346: Not a Misunderstanding

By the time they drove back to the villa, it had started to rain again.

Aunt Zhang stood at the door and immediately raised the umbrella as the car stopped: "President Ling, Young Madam. The master just called and asked President Ling to go home tomorrow."

Ling Tianyou embraced Gu Ningyue and quickly entered the house, "Did he say what it’s about?"

Aunt Zhang shook her head, "No, but from the sound of it, it doesn’t seem too optimistic."

In short, it won’t be anything good.

"When you made a move just now, how’s the wound?" Ling Tianyou only nodded and didn’t pay much attention to what Aunt Zhang said, looking at Gu Ningyue, "If you’re uncomfortable, we can go to the hospital right away."

Gu Ningyue shook her head, "It’s fine, but I do need to go up and change the dressing."

Ling Tianyou looked at her slightly pale face and asked, "Are you really okay? Don’t push yourself."

Gu Ningyue smiled, "Really, I’m fine, don’t worry! I’m okay now. I’ll go upstairs to change the dressing."

Watching Gu Ningyue go upstairs, Ling Tianyou turned and went into the study to dial his father’s number.

"Dad, did you need me for something?"

"Hmm, Xiao Rui came to the house today, did you bully her? That kid..."

"She came to our house?"

"Why? Can’t she come?"

"..."

Upstairs, Gu Ningyue took off her clothes, looking at the gauze already soaked partly in blood, she couldn’t help but grit her teeth slightly.

If it wasn’t for avoiding Nan Shaoyue’s final strike, she wouldn’t have suddenly exerted so much force, tearing at the wound that had finally healed.

Luckily, it only bled a little, the wound didn’t show signs of reopening.

After changing the dressing, when Gu Ningyue changed clothes and came downstairs, Ling Tianyou also happened to open the door and come out of the study.

The originally gloomy face immediately brightened up in an instant when he saw Gu Ningyue’s gaze.

Especially the smile that appeared at the corner of his mouth, it was simply intoxicating: "Changed?"

Gu Ningyue nodded, "Yeah, let’s talk about what we left unsaid before!"

No matter whether Ling Tianyou believed it or not, it was just a misunderstanding.

Ling Tianyou responded, "Come to my study! Aunt Zhang, bring in two cups of coffee."

"Yes, President Ling."

Following Ling Tianyou into the study, Gu Ningyue casually sat in a corner of the couch, originally intending to explain the whole situation, but her gaze was captured by the slowly filling bookcase: "It seems I haven’t visited here much, have you prepared a lot of books here?"

"Yes! If you’re interested, you can come often to take a look in the future." Ling Tianyou sat next to Gu Ningyue: "After all, the whole house was prepared for you."

Gu Ningyue smiled, "Forget it! I’ve read enough before, now I feel a headache just looking at books."

Back in the organization, she was often forced to read a lot of books by her master, but unfortunately, some knowledge hadn’t been used for a long time and had long been forgotten.

Thinking about it carefully, all the intense efforts back then were just to cope with the ’exams’ given by her master.

Dreadful exam-oriented education! It now gives her a headache even reading novels.

Soon, Aunt Zhang brought in two cups of coffee, "President Ling, Young Madam, the coffee is ready!"

Gu Ningyue reached out to take it, handing one cup to Ling Tianyou, "Looks like we can talk about serious matters now?"

Ling Tianyou smiled faintly, "Of course."

Aunt Zhang considerately closed the door, and Gu Ningyue looked at Ling Tianyou, "Regarding what you heard today, most of it is a misunderstanding."

Ling Tianyou stirred the coffee in his cup, "Hmm. Go ahead, I’m listening!"

He didn’t seem to care what answers Gu Ningyue would provide, but this indifference stemmed from a thing called trust.

"First, the formula Nan Shaoyue mentioned is not in my hands. I’ve never had any dealings with Bai Chengfan, that day was also the first time I met him, how could he possibly hand over such an important formula to me?"

At least, with Gu Ningyue’s identity, it was the first time meeting Bai Chengfan.

Ling Tianyou responded, showing agreement, "Yes, who would trust someone they’ve met for the first time?"

"Secondly, the reason I appeared at that villa that day was because I found out the reason why Han Yin was injured by someone, I just wanted to put those people in jail, to avenge Han Yin."

Unexpectedly, in that villa, she saw Ling Tianze who arrived late.

Not sure if it was fortunate or unfortunate.

"Lastly, I didn’t touch those things, before to mix into the villa, to be eligible to enter, I indeed bought some things from a small punk, ahem, just a henchman who got caught with Tianze, but I didn’t touch them, they all went down the drain."

Only then did Ling Tianyou look up at Gu Ningyue, "Really? How do I believe you?"

Gu Ningyue stared into Ling Tianyou’s eyes, "If my words aren’t enough, you can take me for a test."

Ling Tianyou shook his head, placing the coffee cup on the glass table in front of him, "I have another way!"

Gu Ningyue asked, "What?"

Besides that, what other way could prove her innocence?

Before she could figure it out, a hand already covered the back of her head, and a strong kiss landed on her.

Gu Ningyue had to focus hard to hold the coffee cup steady, so as not to let herself drop it in a fit of emotions.

After a long while, Ling Tianyou picked up his coffee cup again, "Gentle yet strong, I doubt those people could have such a beautiful kiss."

Under Ling Tianyou’s teasing, Gu Ningyue’s face turned red, then white, after a while she looked at Ling Tianyou, "You took advantage of me!"

Ling Tianyou turned his head with an evil smile, "Did I? I didn’t know that."

This smile... Does it mean he wants to do it again?

Gu Ningyue lowered her head, taking a sip of coffee to calm her pounding heart, not daring to speak again.

"Nan Shaoyue said that the night you were in the woods near with a man, with Bai Chengfan?" Ling Tianyou asked as he looked at Gu Ningyue, "Isn’t this not a misunderstanding?"

Gu Ningyue pondered for a while and looked at Ling Tianyou, "No, the recording that can put Gu Wanwan in jail was recorded that night."

Ling Tianyou’s eyes narrowed slightly, "The man who was with you, who is he?"

Gu Ningyue paused, "My hired help, in that kind of place, after all, I also felt uneasy being alone."

If she revealed Lin Ruixian’s name at this time, wouldn’t it be equivalent to selling him out?

"Spent some money, but the price was fair."

Ling Tianyou stared into her eyes, "Are you sure it’s not Lin Ruixian?"
