"Haozi, I knew you wouldn't kill me..."
"Shut up!"
Meng Hao kicked him again, and Zhang Ziyi winced in pain, but stopped provoking him: "I don't have that much money, but I have a way to get it for you."
"any solution?"
"I know a place..."
Seeing Meng Hao raise the utility knife again, Zhang Ziyi hurriedly covered his face with his hands and said urgently, "Wait, Haozi, let me hear what I have to say first!"
"If you can't give me a straight answer today, I'll chop that thing of yours off!"
Zhang Ziyi felt a chill in his crotch, squeezed his legs together, and said with a smirk, "Of course I won't let you gamble anymore, I really have connections!"
Seeing that he wasn't joking, Meng Hao also put away the utility knife.
Zhang Ziyi leaned closer to him and whispered, "I met the manager of a casino when I was gambling there before. His name is Leng Ge. Guess what? He's actually a relative of Ling Yun!"
Hearing the other party mention Ling Yun, Meng Hao felt a tightness in his chest.
"This casino is owned by Ling Yun, and he has Brother Leng helping to manage it..."
Meng Hao was somewhat skeptical: "Ling Yun is so rich, why would he engage in such a high-risk business as gambling?"
"Please, who would complain about having too much money? Besides, Ling Yun just inherited the company. Unless he sells those shares, how much liquid capital does he have?"
Meng Hao thought about it and agreed, then gestured for Zhang Ziyi to continue.
"Er Lengzi also wanted to make money from it, but taking it directly would be too obvious, so he wanted to find someone to partner with to swindle money out of the casino. I was on the same page with him, we had slept together, so we were pretty close, which is how I got this precious opportunity. He bribed the dealer, we went in to play, and we would split the winnings equally."
"How could Ling Yun not know about this?"
"So what if he knows? That idiot was just a good-for-nothing hoodlum, but he knows one of Ling Yun's secrets. If he reveals it, everything Ling Yun has achieved will vanish! This secret will haunt him for the rest of his life!"
Zhang Ziyi said with great enthusiasm, "Besides, we're making money off Ling Yun. He was a poor student, but now he's living the high life and dating your favorite campus belle, Bai. It's free money!"
Just as Meng Hao had a moment of doubt, an unseen force dispelled his concerns.
In desperation, he had no better options and decided to go back to the dormitory with Zhang Ziyi to discuss the matter properly before taking any further action.
Chapter 29 Gradual Collapse
Ling Yun made a lot of noise when he closed the door, which Ling Shuang naturally heard.
After a while, she saw her mother staggering towards the elevator through the window.
what happened?
Ling Shuang wanted to chase after him to ask, but her secretary had brought documents that needed urgent processing, so she could only sit back down in her chair.
Xiang Yao had the driver take her home. Once home, she casually tossed the dress on the floor and took a thorough shower in the bathroom.
She deeply regretted not bringing bodyguards when she went to see Ling Yun today; otherwise, she certainly wouldn't have suffered such a huge loss.
Warm water soaked her golden curly hair. She tilted her head back and let the water wash over her face.
She thought she would feel disgusted, after all, being covered up by a young man who had "usurped" her position would make anyone unhappy.
But she found that she couldn't hate Ling Yun at all now. In fact, when she recalled the scene of being pinned against the wall, her heart started racing uncontrollably.
She couldn't quite describe the feeling, but the image of the young man in her mind became clearer and clearer, as if she were being held in his arms at that moment.
When she came to her senses, she found herself squatting on the ground, each hand doing its own thing, and in the soft, sensual sounds she uttered, the young man's name surprisingly took up the majority of her breath.
This discovery made her even more ashamed, but she encountered the same problem as Ling Yun just now. The arrow was on the string and had to be released. This feeling of pleasure made her unable to stop what she was doing, until she went to the bathroom again.
After taking a shower, it was still bright outside. Xiang Yao threw herself onto the big bed, pressed the back of her hand against her forehead, pulled the blanket over herself, and covered her breathtakingly alluring body.
While she was still dazed, the door downstairs rang, followed by familiar footsteps.
"Mom, are you there?"
Ling Shuang knocked on her door, and Xiang Yao sat up wrapped in the quilt, leaning against the headboard: "Shuang'er, why did you come back early?"
Ling Shuang pushed open the door, looked at her mother on the bed, and saw that her face was rosy and she didn't look sick, so she felt relieved. She sat down by the bed and took her hand.
"Mom, nothing happened between you and Lingyun, did it?"
"What could possibly happen between us!"
Xiang Yao's tone was very high, an unusually high one.
Ling Shuang noticed the clue at a glance: "I just asked Ling Yun, and he seemed to be hiding something, only saying that he had a brief chat with you."
Xiang Yao then realized that her daughter had been eavesdropping outside Ling Yun's office. She was annoyed and a little embarrassed and angry: "You went to see him again?"
"I mainly talk to him about work-related matters."
Work? Eavesdropping on that lecherous bastard having sex with other women is considered work?
"From now on, if you need to contact him, there must be a third person present! No, at least four...five!"
Xiang Yao became increasingly angry as she spoke. Just now, Ling Yun had bullied her in front of the other two girls, and she was afraid that her daughter would follow in her footsteps.
"Mom, Lingyun is coming with us to the banquet the day after tomorrow. I've already told him, and a stylist will be coming tomorrow..."
The thought of spending time with Ling Yun with her daughter the day after tomorrow made Xiang Yao feel restless, yet she also felt a strange sense of anticipation.
What the hell? How could I possibly expect to attend a dinner party with such a scoundrel?
Ling Shuang assumed that her mother had been mistreated by Ling Yun and didn't think much of it. Seeing that her mother was alright, she prepared to leave.
As she was leaving, she saw the skirt on the ground.
Xiang Yao is not a sloppy person; she never throws her clothes around and usually keeps them in the laundry basket.
Curious, she picked it up: "Mom, do I need to wash this dress?"
"I don't want it anymore, throw it away!"
"You can't waste money like this."
Ling Shuang closed the door and was about to take it to the laundry room for the nanny to wash when she suddenly felt that her hands were a little wet.
She unfolded the clothes and, sure enough, saw several damp spots.
Those are marks from washing with water, but they haven't completely dried yet. Xiang Yao must have washed them before leaving the company.
She leaned closer to smell it as if by some strange impulse, and caught a very pleasant scent.
She had never smelled this scent before; it seemed to have a milky aroma, and at the same time, it was filled with the scent of someone familiar.
Lingyun?
Ling Shuang has a keen sense of smell. She sniffed again and confirmed that it was indeed Ling Yun's scent.
She turned to look at her mother's closed door, wondering why her mother smelled of Ling Yun. Could it be that the two of them had gotten into a physical altercation?
She also thought it was unlikely. If Ling Yun had laid a hand on Xiang Yao, given the height difference between the two, her mother would have been carried out horizontally.
Caught between Lingyun and her mother, Ling Shuang felt a headache coming on.
The female bodyguard, Xiao Ling, was standing in the living room. When she saw Ling Shuang come out, she lowered her head slightly and said, "Miss, it seems that Madam was upset with Ling Yun. Should I go and warn him?"
Xiao Ling is no ordinary retired soldier. She received the true teachings of an old woman when she was a child, and her martial arts realm has reached the late stage of the Meridian Opening stage.
With her strength, she would be a pillar among those martial arts families, but because Xiang Yao had been kind to her and pulled her out of her most difficult time, Xiao Ling stayed by Xiang Yao's side.
"No need. You just need to protect your mother. You should follow her wherever she goes in the future to avoid any trouble."
"Yes."
Xiao Ling felt somewhat ashamed. Xiang Yao had asked her to rest for the day, but she hadn't gone far. She was just chatting with the driver, Chen Jiali, downstairs at the company. She never expected that she would cause the lady of the house to suffer again.
Inside the room, Xiang Yao was covered with a blanket and tossed and turned on the bed.
She wasn't sleepy, but simply a little tired. After two consecutive peaks, anyone would need a good rest.
She dared not close her eyes, for as soon as she did, the image of the young man would appear in her mind.
His muscular physique, his domineering words, and that enormous dragon that made her tremble...
Doing this kind of thing in the office during broad daylight? What kind of chairman is he?!
The research department told her that Lingyun had brought the company a technological product that was enough to break the foreign monopoly, and now the entire research department was operating at full speed according to his requirements.
She didn't know much about this, only that the company wanted to develop chips, but there had been no progress for a long time.
She didn't believe that Ling Yun, a college student, could solve problems that even experts couldn't solve. She suspected that the people in the research department had been fooled by Ling Yun and were doing useless work.
Xiang Yao became increasingly agitated, so she threw off the covers and got up.
"Xiao Ling? Xiao Ling!"
The female bodyguard outside immediately opened the door: "Madam, I'm here."
"Let's go out and buy some things!"
She tends to engage in retaliatory spending whenever she's in a bad mood; most of the things in her house that she doesn't use were bought when she was unhappy.
Xiao Ling didn't try to persuade her further. She looked away from the lady's enviable figure and contacted the driver to prepare to leave.
Chapter 30 Yes, it's me again.
In the lounge, Bai Xin, who had just finished her training, lay in Ling Yun's arms, her eyelids barely open.
Ling Yun didn't want to take Wu Qianyi's body right now, so the delicious snacks naturally had to be enjoyed slowly in a nice place.
"Xin'er, would you be interested in being my secretary?"
As the saying goes, when there's work to be done, the secretary does it; when there's nothing to do, the secretary takes over.
Wu Qianyi is quite familiar with the company's personnel structure, but one person can't handle so much work. Bai Xin can share some of the work with Wu Qianyi, and the two women can work side by side to reduce the pressure.
This way, Xu Xuan could free up his hands to help him deal with those secret matters.
"Okay, but I still have class right now."
"Let's have a hammer lesson."
Ling Yun grabbed her pert buttocks and rubbed them. Bai Xin let out a soft moan, afraid that he was going to bully her again.
Wu Qianyi was still working outside. She didn't want to be just Ling Yun's sex toy, but wanted to help him in other ways. Otherwise, once she got old and lost her beauty, she would lose her usefulness.
A pleasant ringtone sounded, and Ling Yun picked up his phone.
"Chairman Ling, the prey has taken the bait."
Hearing the voice on the other end, Ling Yun pinched Bai Xin's soft skin: "When does the performance start?"
"If nothing unexpected happens, it should be tonight. You should get some rest; leave these small matters to us."
"No." Ling Yun kissed Bai Xin's cheek. "It would be such a pity if I didn't go on stage after such a wonderful performance."
"Okay, then we'll arrange your entry when the exciting part begins."
Ling Yun hung up the phone. In a great mood, he hugged and kissed Bai Xin again before putting on his clothes and going out.
Hearing the door close behind her, Wu Qianyi turned around and was greeted by a long spear that was both hot and menacing.
Wu Qianyi knelt down without hesitation.
Each time Ling Yun enjoyed pleasure with a beautiful woman, it brought him a certain increase in strength, which in turn benefited him.
The feeling of stepping on your right foot with your left foot and ascending to heaven is truly exhilarating.
Ling Yun stroked his assistant's smooth face, then slipped his hand inside her collar to feel the texture of her breasts.
Wu Qianyi made a sound at the right time, which made the man even harder and more courageous.
After a long while, Lingyun finally released himself on her pretty little face, which made up for the regret of being interrupted by Xiang Yao.
Even though Wu Qianyi opened her mouth to catch it, a lot of the substance still splashed onto other places, which she felt was a bit wasteful.
"Take a good shower tonight and wait for me to come back."
"Yes, Chairman Ling."
Wu Qianyi swallowed what was in her mouth, and the longing in her eyes said it all.
Seeing how well-behaved his little assistant was, Ling Yun wanted to do it again.
Because of what happened tonight, Lingyun didn't bother the two of them anymore and actually worked seriously for an afternoon.
