Starting Check-in Reward: Tomson Riviera Chapter 68 - 67: Lingxi’s Love (4)

"No, that’s not it! Let argue my case... I an, let explain."

Luo Yue spoke up at once. "Actually, about that... I kind of did it on purpose."

"On... on purpose...!?"

This ti, it wasn’t just Ye Ling—even Ning Ruoxi’s eyes went wide. She imdiately marched over and pinched Luo Yue’s ear.

"Waah! Sister Ruoruo, that hurts!"

Luo Yue imdiately cried out, her face a mask of grievance.

"Alright, Ruoruo. Let’s let her explain what happened,"

Ye Ling said, rubbing his temples wearily.

At his words, Ning Ruoxi finally let go of Luo Yue. Still, she couldn’t help but look at her best friend with a sense of resignation.

’This girl is such a handful.’

"You can’t bla for this. It was all that guy’s fault for provoking ..."

Luo Yue said, stomping her foot in renewed anger.

"Provoked you?"

Ye Ling and Ning Ruoxi were both a little taken aback.

"Yeah! I was just out for a drive today when I ran into this lunatic. He was going on about how won shouldn’t be driving and then deliberately cut off to block my lane. I changed lanes several tis, but he kept getting in front of ..."

"Okay, the guy’s got issues, but you were way too reckless."

"A damaged car is one thing, but what if it had been a major accident? What if your life had been in danger?"

Ye Ling chided, his expression incredibly stern.

It wasn’t that he was worried about the repair costs—he’d just scamd three hundred million out of those two rich kids, so he certainly wasn’t short on cash.

But for Luo Yue to actually use her sports car to ram into soone else—that was just too dangerous!

"No, of course not! How could I do sothing illegal? I was just trying to scare him, but who knew the guy would suddenly slam on his brakes? I panicked and accidentally bumped into him..."

Luo Yue stuck out her tongue, trying to look innocent.

’Yes, at first, she hadn’t actually intended to hit that moron; she just wanted to scare him...’

’But who could have known... he would suddenly slow down? And since he was so close to her car while trying to block her lane, she rear-ended him.’

"That’s why I said I was only a *little* bit deliberate, not *completely* deliberate,"

Luo Yue explained.

Hearing this, a helpless look flashed in Ning Ruoxi’s eyes. She sighed. "Did the police get involved?"

"No, it was just a light bump."

Luo Yue said, sticking out her tongue.

’If it had been a serious accident that brought the police, she wouldn’t be standing here right now.’

’Ye Ling would have probably had to bail her out of the police station...’

Seeing this, Ye Ling could only shake his head. "Fine, forget it. I’ll have soone tow the car to get it repaired, but you’re not allowed to drive anymore."

"Oh..."

Luo Yue pouted, looking a little dejected, but she knew she was in the wrong this ti.

’Even though it was an accident, the fact that her foot was halfway down on the accelerator was also real...’

"By the way, do you know who the person you hit was?"

Ye Ling suddenly asked, having thought of sothing.

’Luo Yue was driving a Pagani, yet the other guy still dared to provoke her. That wasn’t sothing an ordinary person would do.’

"I think his last na is Jiang."

Luo Yue said after a mont of thought.

"Jiang?"

Ye Ling was montarily stunned.

"Right. I think I heard him on the phone. The person on the other end called him Young Master Jiang."

Luo Yue said.

"Go to your room and stay out of trouble."

Ye Ling frowned and said.

’If his last na is Jiang, could it be Jiang Feiyun?’

"Oh, got it..."

For once, Luo Yue looked docile and obediently returned to her room.

"Ye Ling, do you think it could be Jiang Feiyun?"

Ning Ruoxi asked hesitantly.

She was thinking the sa thing as Ye Ling. Soone with a personality like Jiang Feiyun’s was definitely capable of such provocation.

"I don’t know. But it doesn’t matter now."

Ye Ling waved his hand dismissively.

’What’s done is done. What else can we do?’

Ye Ling called Zhu Yun and told her to arrange for the car to be towed for repairs.

"I’m sorry... for causing you trouble again."

Ning Ruoxi said, a little embarrassed.

"That girl Luo Yue is the one who caused trouble. What does it have to do with you?"

Ye Ling gently poked her forehead and shook his head.

"Don’t you overthink it, either. Just focus on preparing for your art exhibition and your transition into the world of manga."

"Okay."

Ning Ruoxi nodded, her focus returning.

Ye Ling had only just given her the suggestion, and transitioning into the manga industry would undoubtedly require a lot of preparation.

Creating a manga was different from doing illustrations; besides the art, she also had to design the plot and everything else.

However, Ning Ruoxi had always been quite interested in these things, so getting started wasn’t particularly difficult for her.

Ye Ling temporarily acted as Ning Ruoxi’s assistant. Although he didn’t know much about it, after Ning Ruoxi explained things to him, he was able to help out a great deal.

Ti passed. Before they knew it, the height of sumr was drawing to a close. Though the sweltering heat hadn’t dissipated, it was still the kind of weather where the slightest movent would make you sweat.

By now, Ning Ruoxi’s manga was nearly ready. The first volu had basically taken shape.

"Honey, you’re amazing."

Ye Ling couldn’t help but say in admiration as he gazed at the manuscript before him.

He didn’t really read manga, but he was still captivated by the panels she had drawn.

’This just went to show how imnse Ning Ruoxi’s talent was!’

Ye Ling felt that even without him pulling strings behind the scenes, it was only a matter of ti before this manga would beco a hit!

"Hee hee, well, it’s all thanks to you, really..."

Ning Ruoxi gave a gentle smile.

In truth, Ye Ling had helped her a great deal during this ti. It wasn’t just nial tasks; he had even helped her design a few plot points...

Although Ye Ling was clueless about drawing, Ning Ruoxi herself was amazed by the plot points he ca up with, and she even used them for the story’s climaxes.

"I just helped out a little."

Ye Ling said with a smile, waving his hand dismissively. "The art exhibition is coming up soon, so why not announce it there? By the way, have you thought of a na for your manga?"

"Hmm... I haven’t decided yet... How about... we call it *Lingxi’s Love*?"

Ning Ruoxi said after a mont of contemplation.

’Lingxi’s Love?’

Hearing this, Ye Ling mulled over the na for a mont, and a smile spread across his face.

’With his intelligence, it wasn’t hard to figure out the aning behind the title...’

’The "Ling" in *Lingxi* was a homophone for the "Ling" in his own na, Ye Ling. And the "xi" was a homophone for the "Xi" in Ning Ruoxi’s na. So, *Lingxi’s Love* was also, in essence, *The Love of Ling and Xi*.’

A wave of emotion washed over Ye Ling as he looked at Ning Ruoxi.

’This girl... she always found a way to move him when he least expected it.’
