Chapter 1208: Chapter 1201: How to Be a Qualified Playboy
Lu Tianxing turned his head to look at Bai Zhiqing’s expression and asked curiously, “Honey, why have you suddenly beco so sentintal? Did sothing happen?”
“No, actually, I don’t know why. It just suddenly ca over .”
Bai Zhiqing shook her head, looking at Lu Tianxing, and said, “Lu Tianxing, why did you suddenly decide to leave Jiangnan? Are you hiding sothing from ?”
A woman’s intuition told her that Lu Tianxing was surely hiding sothing in his heart, otherwise, he wouldn’t be so anxious to leave Jiangnan.
“What could I possibly hide from you? I just feel that we’ve been away from Modu for too long, and most of the things in Jiangnan have been resolved. There’s no need to stay, or else so people might find us an eyesore. I don’t want to deal with their faces, so we might as well leave.”
Lu Tianxing didn’t tell Bai Zhiqing the real reason he wanted to leave. He just changed the topic, saying, “By the way, honey, are you a bit reluctant to leave Jiangnan?”
“Yes.”
Seeing that Lu Tianxing was unwilling to say more, Bai Zhiqing didn’t press further. She nodded gently and said, “We can stay in Jiangnan a few more days. After all, Bai’s Group has Qian Ru and Manman helping out, nothing will go wrong. We can stay to keep grandpa company more; I can feel that he’s very lonely.”
“Honey, we have to leave sooner or later. The longer we stay, the harder it will be to leave. Besides, we can return to Jiangnan to see grandpa when we have ti. If necessary, we can bring grandpa to stay with us during the New Year,” Lu Tianxing comforted Bai Zhiqing.
He himself wished to stay in Jiangnan a few more days to savor the family love he once couldn’t, but Lu Tianxing knew well that he must seize the ti to break through to the middle-stage Mythical Realm. By then, he might use the intricate Creation Source Technique to help drive out the Sword Qi from Old Master Lu’s body.
If he doesn’t leave Jiangnan, he can only watch Old Master Lu die sitting idly, but by leaving Jiangnan, he might draw out the Heavenly God and use a life-and-death crisis to break through his current realm. But these things Lu Tianxing did not tell Bai Zhiqing; he didn’t want her to worry.
Bai Zhiqing slightly nodded in agreent with Lu Tianxing’s words. After all, no feast can last forever; this separation is only for a better reunion next ti. Suzhou isn’t very far from Modu; at worst, they can just drive directly to Suzhou whenever they have ti.
Just as Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing left Suzhou, a person wearing a crying face mask appeared on a hill beside the highway, staring at Lu Tianxing’s car with sinister eyes, his voice filled with malice: “Judge, there isn’t much ti left. Enjoy what little life you have left. It won’t be long before I personally take your head, hahaha…”
The chilling voice drifted in the wind as the Crying Face Envoy’s figure flickered and disappeared without a trace.
In the car, Lu Tianxing seemingly felt sothing, his gaze instinctively scanning around. His brows slightly furrowed; just a mont ago, he seed to sense a very familiar gaze sweeping over him. It was a very strange feeling. Ever since breaking through to the Mythical Realm, Lu Tianxing felt his awareness of his surroundings growing stronger. He could naturally sense the tinge of killing intent in that gaze. Moreover, the hint of killing intent felt familiar, but he couldn’t quite place who it was.
“What’s wrong?” Bai Zhiqing asked curiously, seeing Lu Tianxing’s expression.
“Nothing.”
Lu Tianxing shook his head. Indeed, he had sensed a bit of killing intent just now, but it vanished without a trace in an instant.
“Maybe I sensed it wrong.”
Lu Tianxing didn’t dwell on it further, driving the car all the way to Modu.
Bai Zhiqing also didn’t speak further, instead ntally calculating all the things she had bought in Suzhou, wondering what gifts to give to her friends.
Modu, Bai Family Ancestral House.
Bai Qiao Mountain knew early in the morning that Bai Zhiqing and Lu Tianxing were returning today, a faint smile lingering on his face, while He Cailan busied herself in the kitchen, and Bai Weiwei helped pick vegetables on the side.
“Grandma, when will brother-in-law and sister get back?” Bai Weiwei asked He Cailan, her tone filled with anticipation.
“What’s this, missing your sister and brother-in-law after only a few days apart?” He Cailan said with a cheerful smile as she looked at Bai Weiwei. She had no interest whatsoever in whether Lu Tianxing was a mber of the Lu Family, as long as Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing were safe and sound, that was enough for her.
“Hehe, grandma, aren’t you excited? The Lu Family, I’ve heard they’re the overlords of Jiangnan. In ancient tis, they would be comparable to Dukes. Now that brother-in-law has beco the third young master of the Lu Family, doesn’t that make him a second-generation rich kid, and since he’s my brother-in-law, doesn’t that make a second-generation rich kid too? No, I should be a super second-generation rich kid with power and wealth.”
Bai Weiwei waved her hands, eyes gleaming with excitent: “Once upon a ti, I always dread of being a super second-generation rich kid, leading a group of sidekicks, punishing those who displeased and rewarding those who made happy with a large sum of money, saying, ‘I’m in a good mood today, this is for you.’ I feel like from now on, I can strut around like a crab, and if there’s trouble, my brother-in-law will handle it….”
Bai Weiwei kept on babbling, a pair of sparkling eyes revealing a vivid imagination of herself leading a pack of sidekicks through streets and alleys—this was the life.
He Cailan looked at her granddaughter, snatching a few stalks of celery from her hands with a face full of exasperation, “Go, go, play elsewhere, stop causing trouble here, go dream your dreams sowhere else.”
Bai Weiwei looked at her grandma, cutely sticking out her tongue, bounced outside, contemplating whether to look up online how to beco a qualified scion of a rich family.
Ti flowed like water, years flew by like a shuttle. When Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing returned to Modu, it was about three hours later, nearing noon.
“Finally back.” Lu Tianxing parked the car near the Bai Family Ancestral House, took a deep breath, and said.
“Yeah, finally back.”
Bai Zhiqing stretched lazily, her ease drawing Lu Tianxing’s involuntary gaze.
“Let’s go! Honey, let’s head inside, I can already sll the food. I bet grandma has lunch ready for us.”
Lu Tianxing opened the car door and stepped out.
Bai Zhiqing also got out of the car, opened the trunk, and took out several bags filled with gifts, and walked into the ancestral house.
