Starting Check-in Reward: Tomson Riviera Chapter 47 - 46: I’m Not Buying It (3)

’Ning Tianliang is actually coming!?’

Ye Ling read the ssage, the corner of his mouth twitching involuntarily.

He had just breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Zhu Yun’s analysis that Ning Tianliang probably wasn’t coming. And now, in the blink of an eye, the man himself says he’s on his way?

’Life really is just a series of major ups and downs...’

’Whatever, let him co.’

Ye Ling had already steeled himself to et his father-in-law ahead of schedule. That day was bound to co sooner or later, right?

When he got ho, Ning Ruoxi was already waiting for him.

"Stinker, what are we going to do? My dad is really coming."

Ning Ruoxi looked rather panicked.

If Ning Tianliang really ca to this art exhibition, it would be impossible to hide her relationship with Ye Ling.

And when that happened, Ning Tianliang would very likely give Ye Ling a hard ti...

"What? You have so little confidence in your man?"

But Ye Ling just smiled breezily and ruffled Ning Ruoxi’s hair. "Don’t worry, I’ll make a good impression on my future father-in-law."

"Who’s your future father-in-law...? I never said I was going to marry you."

Hearing this, Ning Ruoxi’s pretty face flushed crimson. She lowered her head and huffed delicately.

"Then... what’s this?"

Ye Ling grinned, suddenly taking Ning Ruoxi’s left hand and pointing to the ring on her middle finger.

This ring was, of course, the Crimson Star that Ye Ling had bought for her the other day!

"Hmph! I’m just wearing it because I think it looks nice."

Ning Ruoxi said haughtily.

Hearing this, Ye Ling suddenly pressed her back against the window, a wicked grin playing on his lips. "Is... that so? Then why are you wearing it on your middle finger?"

"I, I..."

Ning Ruoxi watched Ye Ling’s face get closer and closer, so close she could feel the heat of his breath. Her body trembled lightly, and her eyes slowly closed.

Seeing his girl looking so adorable, Ye Ling felt as if he’d been struck right in the heart. He instinctively began to lower his head...

"Ruoruo, Ruoruo!"

But just then, Luo Yue’s voice suddenly called out from behind Ye Ling.

Luo Yue ca bouncing into Ning Ruoxi’s room, sucking on a popsicle.

However, the scene before her made her freeze on the spot!

Ning Ruoxi heard the voice too. Glancing at the doorway, she saw Luo Yue staring at her, completely dumbfounded. She imdiately pushed Ye Ling away, her face flushing red as she lowered her head in embarrassnt.

"*Ahem*... Uh, did I co at a bad ti?"

Even the normally mischievous Luo Yue couldn’t help but feel her own cheeks flush.

In her head, however, she couldn’t help but snark, ’Seriously, you guys? If you’re going to get intimate, couldn’t you at least shut the door?’

’At least give a girl so warning... Yueyue is feeling very wounded right now!’

"What do you think?"

Ye Ling shot the girl an irritated glare. He had been so close—he could have kissed Ning Ruoxi again!

’And this girl still has the nerve to ask if she ca at a bad ti? Can’t she see for herself?’

"Hehe, my apologies. You guys continue. I’ll get the door for you."

Luo Yue scratched her head with a silly grin and, true to her word, actually did "help" Ye Ling and Ning Ruoxi by closing the door.

"So, shall we continue?"

Ye Ling, now feeling a bit awkward himself, couldn’t help but look at Ning Ruoxi.

"Continue what?! This is all your fault!"

Ning Ruoxi shot Ye Ling a look of mortified anger. ’It’s all this stinker’s fault, getting up to no good in broad daylight!’

"Honey, you can’t bla ... It’s just that you’re too captivating."

Ye Ling said, sounding utterly wronged.

’What was he supposed to do?’

’His girl was looking at him like that. Was he supposed to act like so kind of saint?’

’Of course not!’

Hearing Ye Ling’s words, Ning Ruoxi’s pretty face flared a deep crimson, and she shot him a playful glare.

’This guy was getting more and more wicked!’

However, in Ye Ling’s eyes, that glare from her blushing face was as good as a flirtatious wink, and it instantly made his heart pound all over again.

"Hmph! No more kisses for you!"

Ning Ruoxi huffed delicately before flinging open the door and slipping out as if making a great escape.

Seeing this, Ye Ling couldn’t help but sigh.

’Looks like this girl of his still needed so proper training...’

’She got shy far too easily. That just wouldn’t do!’

"Is that big scoundrel Ye Ling done so fast?"

Luo Yue was sitting on the couch, sucking on her popsicle and watching TV. Seeing Ning Ruoxi suddenly run out, she asked with a curious look.

Hearing that, Ning Ruoxi instantly froze and nearly tripped and fell flat on her face.

Just then, Ye Ling walked out. Hearing Luo Yue bad-mouthing him behind his back, his face darkened as he grabbed the girl’s ear.

"Say one more stupid thing and I’m kicking you out."

Ye Ling was utterly exasperated with this girl.

’What the hell did she an, "so fast"?!?’

"OWW, that hurts! Ruoruo, you need to get your man under control!"

Luo Yue yelped in pain, completely forgetting about her popsicle.

"You’re both awful."

Ning Ruoxi pouted but ignored the little troublemaker, turning and heading straight upstairs.

’She needed to splash so water on her face and calm down...’

’This was so mortifying!’

Ye Ling, however, lived by the principle that as long as he wasn’t the one feeling awkward, soone else was. He went to the fridge, grabbed a popsicle, and sat on the couch to watch TV, sucking on it casually.

"Hey, you scoundrel, let ask you a question."

Beside him, Luo Yue’s mischievous eyes darted about. Suddenly thinking of sothing, she sidled up to Ye Ling.

"You can ask, but I’m definitely not answering."

Ye Ling said coolly, his eyes never leaving the TV screen.

Hearing this, Luo Yue pouted. "Hey, I’m a pretty girl, you know. Can’t you show a little respect?"

"Like I said, I’m not a fan of the flat-chested."

Ye Ling said, his eyes flicking toward her chest.

Luo Yue subconsciously glanced down.

Yep.

Flat as a runway.

"Ye Ling!"

Flas seed to burn in Luo Yue’s eyes as she took a vicious bite out of her popsicle, as if imagining it were Ye Ling himself.

For so reason, seeing this made Ye Ling feel a little chilly... down below.

"Alright, alright. If you have sothing to say, just spit it out."

Ye Ling said with a resigned sigh.

’Truthfully, he really didn’t want to hear her question. Who knew what kind of wicked idea this quirky Little Witch had cooked up this ti?’

"Hehe, this one’s totally serious, I swear... It’s just... how far have you and Sister Ruoruo gotten by now?"

Luo Yue asked, leaning in conspiratorially.

"None of your damn business."

Ye Ling rapped her on the head again irritably. He just knew she was up to no good.

Hmph!

Luo Yue puffed out her cheeks and sulked in a corner, looking thoroughly displeased.

If any other guy saw Luo Yue’s pitiful expression, he would probably have rushed over to comfort her without a second thought.

But.

Who was Ye Ling?

Would the great Ye the Mighty Man fall for a trick like that?
