Ling Zhenfei actually felt relieved. The mission that the organization had given him was to figure out Wu Yingxiong's purpose, and now that he finally understood it, and had caught Tang Sen, he could say he had completed the mission.
Guo Qing'an asked about Han Lian's situation again, and upon hearing that Han Lian was fine, he felt at ease, and then he got into the police car and left.
After leaving everything to Guo Qing'an, Ling Zhenfei finally took a deep breath. The mission was completed, and the country should have very effective thods for dealing with Wu Yingxiong moving forward.
Checking the ti, there was still a while before dawn, Ling Zhenfei turned and headed towards Jiagong Mansion, walking along the courtyard walls of Jiagong Mansion until he reached the back.
When he got to the three-level courtyard, the walls of Jiagong Mansion were tall, a full six ters high, sothing ordinary people couldn't possibly climb over. But this was not a problem for Ling Zhenfei.
He generated a bit of Northern Spiritual Energy under his feet and leaped into Jiagong Mansion over the wall.
It was the ti when people felt the most tired and sleepy, and the entire Jiagong Mansion was quiet. Ling Zhenfei didn't have the ti to appreciate the beautiful scenery and strode into the Qiuhua Hall.
The room was silent. Ling Zhenfei sat on a chair and took off the Human Skin Mask. This Human Skin Mask was very good; wearing it, he could conceal his identity no matter what he was doing and avoid unnecessary trouble.
"You're back?"
A sudden voice made Ling Zhenfei startle, and when he turned towards the sound, he saw Annie standing at the doorway, clad in a white nightgown, looking at him sleepily.
Ling Zhenfei felt awkward as just monts ago he was thinking that wearing the Human Skin Mask could save him from many awkward situations, but here Annie had caught him taking it off.
"Why are you awake?"
"There was a disturbance outside just now, and it woke up. What happened outside?" Annie said quietly, seemingly not surprised by the Human Skin Mask in Ling Zhenfei's hand.
"It seems soone was causing trouble outside, I'm not quite sure myself. It's so late, you should go back to sleep."
Looking at him, Annie nodded, "Oh, then I'll go back to sleep. If you're uncomfortable sleeping outside, you can co to the bed. The bed is big, and I don't take up much space."
Ling Zhenfei was taken aback. This girl was really bold. Not only were they in the sa room, but whereas other girls would probably have been very worried by now, she was actually inviting Ling Zhenfei to sleep on the bed, quite carefree indeed.
"No, thank you."
Annie didn't say much else, perhaps her offer was just a flippant remark.
As soon as Annie left, Ling Zhenfei imdiately entered into cultivation. As he encountered more and more skilled opponents, he felt increasingly that there wasn't enough ti for cultivation.
Even though he cultivated every evening, the pace of this cultivation felt sowhat too slow.
His cultivation speed was much faster than that of others, but Ling Zhenfei was far from satisfied; he needed to find more thods for faster cultivation.
After a night of cultivation, Ling Zhenfei was attracted the next morning by the birdsong and fragrant flowers, walking out from the Heaven-Dropping Essence Marrow into the yard.
Outside there was an expanse of plum trees and fiery red maple trees, which looked very beautiful in the environnt of little bridges and flowing water. A cold breeze blew by, shaking off a few plum blossoms from the trees.
Ling Zhenfei looked up at the sky; it seed winter was approaching. This feeling was even more pronounced in the Northeast.
As the sky grew slightly brighter, the turbulence of the previous night settled down, as if nothing had happened.
A person dressed as a waiter pushed a dainty cart over, and upon seeing Ling Zhenfei standing in the courtyard, a smile appeared on their face.
"Good morning, sir. Here is your breakfast."
One had to admit that Jiagong Mansion was very thoughtful to have even prepared breakfast.
Ling Zhenfei said thank you and pushed the cart back into the house himself. By then, Annie had already changed and gotten up.
The two sat opposite each other and began to eat breakfast when Annie looked up at Ling Zhenfei, "Who are you really, and what happened last night?"
Ling Zhenfei looked at Annie in surprise, "What's going on, you haven't lost your mory, have you?"
Annie said, "I haven't lost my mory, but the more I think about it, the more I feel there is sothing off about you. Are you really the designated driver I called for?"
Ling Zhenfei chuckled inwardly, not expecting that she was still hung up on this question and said, "Don't worry about these details. Didn't I safely bring you to a comfortable place to rest for the night? That's enough."
Annie shook her head and said, "No, sothing's not right. I drank too much last night, and then I t you outside the bar, and then you said you were my designated driver, and then you ended up fighting with a group of people on the roadside."
It seed the girl wasn't entirely confused. Despite having had a lot to drink the previous night, she still rembered the gist of what had happened.
Continuing to recollect, Annie said, "Then, I don't know how, but you drove to Jiagong Mansion, and then I even brought you in. Have I gone mad? Why would I bring you to Jiagong Mansion?"
Ling Zhenfei laughed, "I'm surprised that after drinking so much, you can still rember everything that happened last night. That's really sothing."
Annie laughed, "Of course. Besides, my tolerance is good. Even when I'm drunk, I don't make a scene. I'm just a bit slow to react, which is why I think your intentions aren't all that pure."
Ling Zhenfei laughed again, "How are my intentions not pure? We both stayed in the sa room last night, look how safe you are, and besides, you even asked to sleep with you on the bed."
Annie thought in shock and said, "I asked you to sleep with last night? What were you thinking? That's impossible."
Ling Zhenfei shook his head, unable to hold back, "Forget it, if you can't rember, let it be. As long as you're alright now, that's good. You should have sobered up by now, and I'm full after breakfast, so I'll be leaving now. Goodbye."
After finishing speaking, Ling Zhenfei stood up, waved to Annie, and walked towards the exit.
Passing through the winding corridor and directly from the third courtyard to the first, Ling Zhenfei once again marveled at the design of Jiagong Mansion; such an excellent layout, he wondered who could have co up with it.
At the entrance to Jiagong Mansion, there were many cars parked in the lot, mostly luxury cars. This must an that not just anyone could enter Jiagong Mansion, signifying that Annie was no ordinary person.
It wasn't easy to hail a cab from this place, so Ling Zhenfei could only walk along the main road. Suddenly a car passed by him and stopped right next to him. The window rolled down, revealing the beautiful face of Annie.
"Hey, Mr. Designated Driver, would you like this young lady to give you a lift?"
Ling Zhenfei looked over at Annie, who had a mischievous smile on her face.
"No need, I'd rather walk."
Although Annie was a beautiful girl, Ling Zhenfei didn't want to get entangled in any relationships to avoid future complications.
He knew he was fickle; seeing a woman would an falling in love with her, so the best way to avoid such situations was not to have too much contact with beautiful girls, just like Annie.
