“Bad boy! Who praises others like that!?”

Zhuang Meifeng gave Ling Yun a sidelong glance as her slender digits pinched the soft flesh at Ling Yun's waist, expressing her dissatisfaction.

Zhuang Meifeng was known as the Flower of Qingshui. She had a refined and beautiful face that was currently red with anger. Her s.e.xy red mouth pouted. She looked extremely charming.

“That hurts! I admit I'm wrong! I surrender!” Ling Yun smiled at Zhuang Meifeng's pretty little face and held both his hands up in mock submission.

Xiao Meimei squirmed around as she giggled. Ling Yun received a full view of her bobbing chest that was tightly bound in a crimson tight cotton T-s.h.i.+rt. That almost blinded Ling Yun.

“Hurt? Hmph! You didn't even wince the night you sustained such serious injuries,” Zhuang Meifeng said tenderly as she thought back to that harrowing night.

It was the night this handsome and calm young man had fought against so many highly skilled opponents for her in her most desperate time in need!

Ling Yun knew that Zhuang Meifeng was remembering that night when he saw her eyes reddening. He hugged her and gave a comforting smile. “I was s.n.a.t.c.hing my wife back. How would I be able to succeed if I minded such a small injury? It's all in the past. Let's not think about it anymore.”

“Yes…” Zhuang Meifeng's was overjoyed at Ling Yun's frank declaration that she was his wife. She blushed and punched Ling Yun twice playfully.

Those words were not meant to be heard by a third party!

Ling Yun was here to recharge, not to be held up by the two beauties. He took the opportunity to change the topic. “So, where exactly did Little White go? You've yet to tell me.”

“You'll be the death of us. You care only about that vixen, not about the two of us who are right in front of you! Anyway, it was taken away by your dear Ning Er this morning!”

Zhuang Meifeng had regained her energy after a day of rest. Her biggest concern now was the unclear relations.h.i.+p between Xue Meining, Cao Shanshan and Ling Yun.

She was jealous, without a doubt!

Ling Yun could hear the jealousy in Zhuang Meifeng's voice plainly. However, it wasn't the time to deliberate on such issues now. “Taken away by Ning Er? Wasn't she afraid of it?” Ling Yun asked incredulously.

Xiao Meimei seemed to be in a great mood, smiling as she interjected, “That little girl is definitely not afraid. She likes Little White too much. I think she wants to keep it as a pet.”

“Eh?!” Ling Yun was shocked. He didn't even entertain the thought of having the nine-tailed celestial fox as a pet. Well, perhaps that was for the best, since they would probably suit each other well.

It was actually a good development. Ling Yun would only need to give Xue Meining a call to get Little White. It would save Ling Yun unnecessary ha.s.sle.

“Is there any hot water? I want to take a shower.” Ling Yun had not had a bath for the past two days. It was around thirty degrees Celsius, and while he didn't smell, he was feeling uncomfortable.

“It's ready…” Zhuang Meifeng's volume dropped and her face turned red like an apple.

She had misunderstood Ling Yun's intentions. Ling Yun only wanted to clean himself. He had no other meaning.

“Alright, I'll go take a shower! Oh yeah, do you have anything planned for this afternoon?” Ling Yun stood up and asked Zhuang Meifeng.

“What kind of things? W-what do you want to do…” Zhuang Meifeng's imagination ran wild, thinking that perhaps Ling Yun wanted both of them to accompany him in the shower. That would be so embarra.s.sing!

Xiao Meimei's eyes reflected a great happiness. Her s.e.xy little mouth opened slightly. Her seductive eyes filled with antic.i.p.ation.

Ling Yun knew immediately what the two ladies had in mind and decided to tease them. “Perhaps… both of you can accompany me in the shower?”

“You lewd boy!” Zhuang Meifeng's face exploded into a deeper shade of red. She grabbed a pillow from the sofa to hit Ling Yun!

Xiao Meimei clamped her slender legs tightly in recollection to the time when Ling Yun had “bullied” her.

It had really hurt, but Ling Yun had managed to couple pain and pleasure. If possible, she was more than willing to be the “victim” of Ling Yun's “bullying” anytime and anywhere.

It was the ultimate pleasure of being completely conquered.

Ling Yun couldn't help but be elated at the response of the two beauties. There's actually no objection? What kind of agreement did the two of them reach?

He didn't have that intention today. He didn't dare to try even if both of them were willing. He wouldn't be able to stop himself if both of them were to come on him at once. “I was just pulling your legs. I wanted to ask you to help out at Qingshui Wharf Mansion Number Nine if you have nothing to do in the afternoon. Tang Meng is the only one working on the decorations. I'm afraid he can't cope.”

That was an excellent proposition. Zhuang Meifeng was the daughter of the richest man in Qingshui City. Few people could match her in taste and style. Moreover, Qin Qiuyue was hiding at home because of her physical transformation. The timing was great.

Zhuang Meifeng and Xiao Meimei heaved a sigh of relief when they realized Ling Yun's joke about accompanying him in the bath. To their surprise, they also felt an unspeakable sense of loss.

That emotion was replaced immediately by alarm.

“What?! To Mansion Number Nine?!” Zhuang Meifeng exclaimed.

Ling Yun felt strange at her overreaction. He nodded and replied, “Yes, why? Haven't you been there before?”

They had been with Ling Yun when he had bought the two mansions.

“We know the location, but… but… didn't you say your Mum is staying there currently?” Tension and unease flashed across Zhuang Meifeng's pretty face.

“Yes, I'm renovating the mansion precisely because they have moved in. I can't possibly let them stay in an empty house, can I?” Ling Yun said with amus.e.m.e.nt.

Nonetheless, he grasped Zhuang Meifeng's source of unease almost immediately. “Don't worry, my beautiful wives must meet their mother-in-law one day. It will be easier after the first meeting. My mum will definitely like you both!” Ling Yun grinned.

“are we really going?!” Zhuang Meifeng was trying to deal with her mixed feelings. On one hand, she was happy that Ling Yun had brought up the matter of meeting his mother. On the other hand, she felt extremely nervous. Her heart beat wildly like a drum.

What if her future mother-in-law disliked her? Zhuang Meifeng knew from Ling Yun's behavior that no one was above his mother and sister.

However, her worries were needless. Qin Qiuyue had seen Zhuang Meifeng and knew the whole story.

“Ning Er will be there helping out anyways. You can decide if you are going or not… hehe…” Ling Yun provoked them by mentioning Ning Er.

“I'm going to shower. You can discuss among yourselves. Haha!”

Ling Yun beamed and headed to the bathroom without another word.

Zhuang Meifeng and Xiao Meimei sat there staring at each other, aware of the common apprehension and pressure in the other's eyes.

“Let's go!” Zhuang Meifeng said determinedly as she sprang up. “Let's change our clothes!”

Could they s.h.i.+rk from helping out in the renovations of his newly bought mansion for their future mother-in-law? No! What better chance was there to showcase themselves to her?

They had to dress their best and put their best foot forward!

Ling Yun spent fifteen minutes in the hot shower. Refreshed, he grabbed a random bath towel and walked out of the bathroom.

Then, he had a rude shock from the stunning beauties!

Zhuang Meifeng wore a pastel pink s.h.i.+rt and a flowing knee-length yellow skirt. Her 34D chest stretched her s.h.i.+rt and emphasized her perfect tiny waist. A pair of white stockings clung onto her straight legs. Her feet were in white high-heeled sandals. She had no accessories on, but her simple get-up further enhanced her beauty and refined temperament.

Contrasting the elegant Zhuang Meifeng, Xiao Meimei was in a darker pink s.h.i.+rt stuffed into her figure-hugging jeans. Her get-up emphasized her curves perfectly from her round b.u.t.tocks to her slender legs. Her waist-length black hair flowed down. She had very light make-up on and looked enchanting and dignified.

“Wow! Do you need to dress so well?!” Ling Yun was momentarily stunned. “You are going there to work, not to attend a beauty pageant…”

“Of course!” Zhuang Meifeng glared at Ling Yun. “We know that. That's why we aren't wearing gowns!”

“Alright alright, wear whatever you want. I'll just give you a suggestion. Bring some more clothes.”

They won't be able to match up to Mum and my sister no matter how they dress up anyway, Ling Yun thought to himself.

Zhuang Meifeng and Xiao Meimei were great beauties in their own right. However, they were currently not comparable to Qin Qiuyue and Ning Lingyu, without a doubt.

“What do we need to bring clothes for?” Zhuang Meifeng asked, confused.

“Oh, I am afraid that my Mum will like the both of you so much that she'll ask you to stay a couple of days…”

Ling Yun gave a bullsh*t reason. He wanted the both of them at his mother's place so that in the event the Sun Family or a.s.sa.s.sins Organization found them, Qin Qiuyue could provide them with protection.

“Really? Alright then!” They went back to their rooms delightfully and packed enough clothes for a few days. Then, they took off after saying goodbye to Ling Yun.

Ling Yun returned to his bedroom and switched on his computer after they left. He was going to use the remaining time to read up on the ancient myths and legends of Huaxia!
