Rebirth! The Assassin's Revenge-Chapter 558: Kinda Want to Learn

"How is it? Is it good?" Gu Ningyue sat next to Ling Tianyou, looking expectantly at him, clearly anticipating his response.

Ling Tianyou nodded with a smile, "Not bad, no wonder you insisted I try it."

To prove he meant it, Ling Tianyou took another bite.

Gu Ningyue noticed the cut section and a hint of confusion flashed in her eyes: "Huh, yesterday there was ice cream inside when I ate it, but there’s none in yours?"

Ling Tianyou said, "Maybe they purposely made something different! After all, it’s just a complimentary item to entice customers to return, so they made two different versions."

Gu Ningyue nodded to Ling Tianyou, "True. But that shop owner’s skills are genuinely impressive, I’ve never had such delicious cake before."

Ling Tianyou pushed the cake in front of him towards Gu Ningyue: "Wanna try this?"

Gu Ningyue originally didn’t want to eat, but remembering the deliciousness from yesterday, she couldn’t resist the temptation: "Sure!"

After sharing the cake with Ling Tianyou, Gu Ningyue patted her somewhat tight-fitting blouse, suddenly looking at Ling Tianyou and asking, "Do you think I’ve gained weight recently?"

Ling Tianyou wiped his hands, turned his head to glance at Gu Ningyue: "Have you? Haven’t you always been just fine?"

Gu Ningyue pinched her waist again: "Feels like there’s more flesh here, the clothes are starting to feel tight."

Ling Tianyou chuckled: "Maybe the clothes shrunk!"

Gu Ningyue was a bit skeptical: "Would such a big brand neglect to check for shrinkage? Clearly, I’ve gained weight, you just don’t want to tell me!"

Suddenly, Ling Tianyou wrapped his arms around Gu Ningyue’s waist: "Really? Let me see if you’ve gained any weight."

Gu Ningyue’s face instantly blushed: "N-no need."

But Ling Tianyou didn’t let go, he said to Gu Ningyue: "Didn’t you just say you felt you gained weight? Hmm?"

"Ahem..." Gu Ningyue turned her head: "Now I don’t feel fat anymore. Let go!"

Ling Tianyou’s lips curled into an alluring smile: "Why should I let go? Holding my girlfriend, what’s wrong with that?"

The two questions left Gu Ningyue speechless, indeed! What’s wrong with that?

For a moment, Gu Ningyue didn’t know what to say, all she could hear was her own quickening heartbeat.

After thinking for a while, Gu Ningyue said to Ling Tianyou: "Let go! Let’s talk about something serious. This position is a bit uncomfortable."

"Really?" Ling Tianyou asked with a smile: "So, what exactly is uncomfortable?"

Gu Ningyue had no way out, even she couldn’t answer that question.

Because being in Ling Tianyou’s arms was indeed very comfortable.

Gu Ningyue looked at Ling Tianyou and sighed: "We’re going to meet Shangguan Wuyue tomorrow, do you think Jin Chenglong will come out alive?"

Ling Tianyou chuckled: "Of course he will! We’re in a law-abiding society now. It’s not like even if Shangguan Wuyue or I killed someone, we wouldn’t have to face justice."

Gu Ningyue responded but didn’t speak further. After a while, she said to Ling Tianyou: "Shangguan Wuyue has many ways to make people disappear without a trace, it’s very possible Jin Chenglong might not even know how he died in the end."

Ling Tianyou tightened his arm around Gu Ningyue: "Are you worried he won’t die, or do you not want him to just die like that?"

Gu Ningyue smiled, "Neither, I’m just curious about how he’ll die. Shangguan Wuyue is not someone you want to cross, nobody dares to mess with him. Jin Chenglong is doomed this time."

Ling Tianyou leaned back on the sofa: "Not necessarily..."

Gu Ningyue asked: "What do you mean?"

Ling Tianyou turned his head, looking at Gu Ningyue’s pretty face: "Do you remember? Jin Chenglong said he wasn’t the one who ordered others to hurt Shangguan Wuyue."

Gu Ningyue thought for a moment, about to speak, but then suddenly had a thought: "Will Jin Chenglong have his mother take the blame?"

"Maybe." Ling Tianyou said to Gu Ningyue casually: "People will do anything to survive."

Especially in this situation, Jin Chenglong might really ask his mother to bear all the responsibility.

Gu Ningyue was silent for a while, then looked at Ling Tianyou and said: "If that’s true, it could be troublesome. We need to think of a way to completely make Jin Chenglong disappear from City A."

Not to mention how much wrongdoing Jin Chenglong and his father have done in this city, but just bringing him to suffer under Shangguan Wuyue this time, in the future, given Jin Chenglong’s nature, he’ll certainly find every way to retaliate against Ling Tianyou.

Even if Ling Tianyou remains in a high position, he might still be disgusted by Jin Chenglong.

Ling Tianyou faintly smiled: "Don’t worry, I have a way, just wait for the show tomorrow!"

Of course, someone like Jin Chenglong can’t stay in City A, that’s something both he and Gu Ningyue agreed on.

"What way?" Gu Ningyue was curious: "Tell me?"

Ling Tianyou looked at Gu Ningyue and asked: "Do you really want to know?"

Gu Ningyue nodded: "Of course."

Ling Tianyou leaned closer to Gu Ningyue’s ear: "So, can I sleep in the bedroom tonight?"

Warm breath brushed against her ear, making Gu Ningyue’s face turn red, "Forget it if you won’t say!"

Ling Tianyou chuckled and said to Gu Ningyue: "Really don’t want to know?"

Gu Ningyue said to Ling Tianyou: "I don’t, you’re just bargaining with me."

"Am I?" Ling Tianyou looked at Gu Ningyue and said: "You asked me to eat cake, I did, without any objections."

Speaking of which, Gu Ningyue turned to Ling Tianyou and said: "By the way, why don’t you like to eat these things?"

Ling Tianyou paused slightly, was silent for a moment before saying to Gu Ningyue: "It’s nothing, it’s just that I neither like nor dislike them! Don’t dwell on it."

Seeing that Ling Tianyou was unwilling to answer, Gu Ningyue let it go!

"Then can we buy some more when we come back tomorrow?" Gu Ningyue asked Ling Tianyou.

Ling Tianyou nodded: "Sure."

Gu Ningyue looked at the crumbs on the table, and the image of that shop owner flashed in her mind: "That shop owner seemed very gentle!"

Ling Tianyou chuckled: "Really?"

Gu Ningyue said: "Yeah! Next time we buy cake, maybe we can ask how they managed to place the ice cream inside without it melting much along the way?"

"What? Do you want to learn it too?" Ling Tianyou asked curiously.

Gu Ningyue nodded, "Kind of."

Even though she was very reluctant when her master taught her to cook before, once she started doing it, she gradually developed some interest.

She could make ordinary bread, but had never tasted such a delicious cake before, making her eager to learn more.

Of course, though the shop owner seemed easy-going, they might not necessarily share the secret recipe, since it’s a livelihood!
