Rebirth! The Assassin's Revenge-Chapter 460: Time to Depart

This kiss was gentle and lingering, lasting until Gu Ningyue gradually sank into it. Ling Tianyou only reluctantly released her.

Now... is still not the time.

Gu Ningyue, blushing, looked at Ling Tianyou, her eyes carrying a trace of grievance even she hadn’t noticed, as if blaming Ling Tianyou for letting go so easily, not continuing further.

Ling Tianyou smiled, glanced at the clock on the wall, and then reached out to touch her head: "Go back to your room, change your clothes and prepare! We’re about to head out."

The recent kiss left her with an indescribable anticipation, and upon seeing the lingering desire in Ling Tianyou’s eyes, she quietly nodded and returned to her bedroom.

Without returning to change clothes, Ling Tianyou just happened to push the door open as she came out.

The two went downstairs together, Aunt Zhang looked at Gu Ningyue and Ling Tianyou walking side by side, and couldn’t help but smile, "Young Madam and President Ling are going out?"

Gu Ningyue nodded, Ling Tianyou said to Aunt Zhang, "Ning Yue won’t be coming back tonight. I have to deal with some matters at the company and won’t be back for dinner." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Aunt Zhang acknowledged, didn’t ask much and sent the two of them out.

Sitting in Ling Tianyou’s car, fastening her seatbelt, Gu Ningyue chatted, "Any news from Ye Mingchen’s side?"

Ling Tianyou started the car, leisurely said, "The Ye Family thinks they’re so capable, but now they can’t do anything. However, recently, they’ve been frequently seeking out Gu Wanwan’s mother. Probably hoping to get Li Yulan or Gu Zheng to convince Gu Wanwan to admit to some crimes to lessen Ye Mingchen’s sentence during the trial."

Gu Ningyue sneered, "They really are something. Gu Wanwan is already insane. How could Li Yulan possibly involve herself?"

Such malicious acts are obviously secretive. If a third person knows but is discovered without stopping it, even shielding or condoning it, Li Yulan isn’t free of blame.

Is Li Yulan really that foolish? Gu Ningyue thinks not.

But Ling Tianyou shook his head and said, "That’s not necessarily the case. People die for money, birds die for food. Maybe the Ye Family is willing to bleed once to make Li Yulan comply? Or perhaps, they’re offering Li Yulan some other benefits?"

Gu Ningyue twisted her waist, finding a comfortable position and said, "Li Yulan put a green hat on my dad outside, maybe she’s willing to risk everything for her old flame."

However, Li Yulan is such a selfish person, which makes this unlikely.

Ling Tianyou chuckled, "We won’t have to wait long. The trial is scheduled for the end of this month."

Gu Ningyue was a bit surprised and said, "Still waiting until the end of this month? Director Chen said the evidence has long been collected, and the tax evasion and fraud under Ye Mingchen’s company have already been confirmed, haven’t they?"

Before leaving here for the U.S., everything was almost settled. Now even Gu Wanwan has died once and turned into a lunatic, yet the trial is delayed to the end of the month?

Ling Tianyou turned his head to look at the frowning Gu Ningyue, "The Ye Family only has this one son. It’s normal for them to pull strings and try to delay. I’ve heard that in less than a month, the Ye Family has already spent nearly five million for Ye Mingchen."

Gu Ningyue sneered, "Even so, Ye Mingchen can’t escape legal punishment. For the things he’s done, a hundred deaths wouldn’t be enough."

Ling Tianyou nodded, "He and you... No, with the previous Gu Ningyue, I know some things. She was overly humble towards Ye Mingchen."

And Ye Mingchen towards her was excessively ruthless.

"In summary, Gu Wanwan and he are truly a match made in hell." Gu Ningyue thought of Ye Mingchen and Gu Wanwan’s previous actions, feeling nothing but disgust: "One shameless, the other faceless."

Ling Tianyou helplessly shook his head: "Dragons beget dragons, phoenixes beget phoenixes, mice’s children know how to dig holes."

Gu Ningyue looked at Ling Tianyou and said, "I think these two are just two pieces of rat dung. The real rats haven’t shown up yet!"

"Oh?" Ling Tianyou seemed a bit intrigued, "You mean the Ye Family parents and Li Yulan aren’t considered the ’real rats’?"

Gu Ningyue affirmed, "Of course."

Seeing Gu Ningyue answer so confidently, Ling Tianyou couldn’t help but be curious, "Who is the real ’rat’ then?"

Gu Ningyue gave a mischievous smile, "Not telling you."

The look had an air of ’ah, there are things you don’t know too’ arrogance.

Ling Tianyou was both amused and impressed, but in his heart, he liked Gu Ningyue’s smile.

Or rather, he liked seeing her smile.

Every time Gu Ningyue smiled, he felt genuine happiness.

But back then, Gu Ningyue rarely showed such smiles to him.

Now, it’s gotten much better.

The car arrived at the agreed coffee shop. Gu Ningyue watched Ling Tianyou unbuckle his seatbelt, while she sat in the car motionless.

Ling Tianyou was a bit surprised, turned his head to Gu Ningyue and said, "Get out of the car!"

"You go in first!" Gu Ningyue said, "What’s the deal if we go in together?"

Very easily spotted, especially for a standout handsome guy like Ling Tianyou.

Ling Tianyou heard her and gave a calm smile, "Don’t worry! The doctor hasn’t arrived yet!"

Gu Ningyue felt something was off, "What if he brought spies too? Better not, you go in first!"

Only then Ling Tianyou said, "I rented out this café two hours ago. Everyone inside now is my staff. Don’t worry, even if the doctor brings spies, there will be no place for them to sit!"

Since Gu Ningyue told him about this, he had his men set up everything here so he could know what was said between them no matter how far the doctor was.

Gu Ningyue hadn’t imagined Ling Tianyou would spend so much for an uncertain negotiation, and suddenly widened her eyes. This café’s business was always good because it’s next to a hospital.

To rent this place out, no less than a hundred thousand a day. And Ling Tianyou actually did rent it out?

"How much?" Gu Ningyue heard herself asking.

Ling Tianyou’s lips slightly moved, "Not bad, this day only cost fourteen thousand."

Gu Ningyue: "..."

Alright! The rich speak boldly, a mere fourteen thousand, saying only cost?

She decided from this moment she won’t like Ling Tianyou anymore, this man’s wealth is outrageously offensive!

Seeing Gu Ningyue quiet, Ling Tianyou was a bit puzzled and asked, "What? Do you think the rent here is too cheap?"

Gu Ningyue: "...No!"

No matter how you look, this place is miles away from being cheap!!!

Ling Tianyou, I now have the right to suspect you’re bragging!
