Chapter 314: Chapter 0313: Mr. M (Four Updates)_1
Back home, Ye Xiong didn’t say much, just mentioning that Tang Ning was uncomfortable living at school and would move back home from now on.
“I told you not to stay at school. Look at you, you’ve gotten so thin in such a short time.”
Yang Xinyi said with concern, looking at Tang Ning’s haggard appearance.
“Cousin…”
Seeing Yang Xinyi, Tang Ning’s long-repressed emotions finally burst out, and she hugged her, sobbing.
“You’re so grown up, yet still crying, aren’t you afraid of being laughed at?”
Yang Xinyi patted her on the shoulder to comfort her and asked, “Have you eaten yet?”
Tang Ning shook her head; she had just finished swimming and had not yet eaten.
“There are still vegetables in the fridge. Ah Xiong, go cook some rice. Tang Ning loves the dishes you cook,” Yang Xinyi said.
Ye Xiong nodded, ready to go to the kitchen to prepare noodles, and Tang Ning quickly said, “I want to eat noodles, like the ones Cousin had that night.”
After entering the kitchen, Ye Xiong fiddled for a while and cooked two large bowls of noodles.
One bowl was for Tang Ning and the other for himself. He hadn’t eaten yet and was starving!
Soon, the two bowls of noodles were ready and placed on the dining table.
“Alright, come and eat!” Ye Xiong called out.
“Cousin, come with me,” Tang Ning said weakly…
She was now a bit afraid to stay alone with Ye Xiong.
Yang Xinyi nudged her and said, “Alright, go eat before it gets cold and isn’t tasty anymore.”
With her head drooping, Tang Ning walked to the dining room where a large bowl of fragrant noodles was waiting on the table.
There was braised pork, ham, seafood, vegetables, all looking very appetizing.
The care taken with each ingredient in this bowl of noodles was evident.
Tang Ning sat down with her head drooping, not daring to look at Ye Xiong, and began to eat her noodles in silence.
“Oh, a fly has fallen into the bowl,” said Ye Xiong suddenly.
Tang Ning was startled and quickly put down her chopsticks.
When she looked up at her cousin-in-law and saw him smiling at her, she realized he was teasing her, gave a little pout, and continued eating her noodles.
“Alright, we’re all family here, no need to keep sulking. Your cousin-in-law was just angry that you were not pushing yourself enough and was afraid that you would be treated unfairly,” Ye Xiong didn’t want to keep arguing with her.
Hearing him say that, Tang Ning’s eyes turned red again, and while eating her noodles, tears as big as beans started falling into her bowl.
Ye Xiong sighed and dared not say anything more.
Tang Ning seemed to be getting more fragile; he still preferred the carefree Tang Ning of before.
After finishing the noodles, Tang Ning put down her chopsticks and said earnestly, “Starting today, I promise I won’t cause any more trouble or stir up incidents. Cousin-in-law, for the things I’ve done before, I apologize.”
She bowed respectfully and then ran out.
This girl’s earnest appearance made her seem almost like she had transcended worldly affairs.
Ye Xiong didn’t think too much of it, after all, the Tang Ning he had just seen seemed to have grown up a lot.
A girl has to grow up eventually.
At night, Ye Xiong and Yang Xinyi went back to their room to sleep, and naturally, they couldn’t avoid some intimacy.
A woman’s body is like a black hole, once awakened, it has infinite attractive power.
It wasn’t until both were satisfied that they held each other close and went to sleep.
On the other side of the room.
Tang Ning lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep, her mind full of the recent events.
In her mind, a figure surfaced from time to time, making it hard for her to relax.
Although she had only drunk a small amount of the drug, a tiny quantity still lingered in her body.
The more she thought of that person, the redder her face flushed, and the stronger her desire grew.
The next day, Ye Xiong sent Tang Ning to school as usual.
The former Tang Ning, who used to chatter non-stop in the car like a bird, had given Ye Xiong calluses on his ears. But today, she was a lot quieter, like a girl suffering from depression.
Nevertheless, Ye Xiong could still feel her eyes on him from behind.
“Why have you become so quiet today? You’re not depressed, are you?” Ye Xiong couldn’t help but smile.
Tang Ning did not speak.
“Could it be that the pangs of springtime are starting to awaken in you?”
“You’re the one struck by spring fever!” Tang Ning retorted.
“If you can still insult someone, it shows the situation isn’t too serious,” Ye Xiong laughed outright.
They soon arrived at the school.
“Take good care of yourself and stop looking for trouble. Your cousin-in-law doesn’t mind cleaning up your messes, but he can’t wipe your butt for the rest of your life. Sooner or later, everyone has to grow up. Besides, I can’t always be there in time to save you. Some disasters, once they happen, cannot be undone for a lifetime. Like yesterday, if I had been ten minutes late, can you imagine the consequences?” Ye Xiong said with heavy significance.
“I understand,” Tang Ning replied.
“But don’t ever let anyone bully you. If someone does bully you, tell your cousin-in-law directly. If it’s not your fault, even if he’s the Heavenly King himself, I’ll still help you get justice,” Ye Xiong continued.
“Mm-hmm,” Tang Ning nodded.
“Also, it was Yang Xiaoqiao who informed me this time. If not for her, you would have been in trouble. I hope you won’t be enemies with her anymore. Okay, that’s enough talking, or the readers will scold me for padding the word count. I’m off now.”
Having said that, Ye Xiong drove toward the Hunter Bodyguard Company.
The moment he entered the company, Ye Xiong’s brow furrowed.
An almost imperceptible aura of killing intent enveloped him.
Ye Xiong’s intuition was already strong and, with a year of cultivation, his current strength was much greater than when he was in the Reaper Squad. Now a Gene Warrior capable of transformation, his premonition of danger had reached an astonishing level. He sensed that something bad was about to happen.
After parking in the lot, he walked towards the company on foot.
Halfway there, his body suddenly rolled to the side.
At the same time, a sniper bullet whooshed past his hair.
Subsequently, a non-stop barrage of bullets aimed at him ensued.
Pity, once he became aware, hitting him became harder than reaching the heavens.
“Mr. M, have you finally shown yourself?”
Ye Xiong analyzed the bullet marks on the ground, bounced up, pulled out his phone, and called He Mengji, “He Mengji, I’ve been targeted for assassination. It’s very likely Mr. M. Send the company’s members to search immediately, the target is 500 meters southeast of the company.”
In less than three minutes, dozens of bodyguards clad in company uniforms poured out, fanning out in an arch towards the southeast.
In the southeast, 500 meters away, a man in a grey jacket stood up from the ground, quickly folded his rifle into a case, picked it up, and ran downstairs.
This man was none other than Mr. M, the top sniper under Ghost and the leader of the Reaper Squad.
Back at the Hunter Bodyguard Company, He Mengji stood by the window, her brow furrowed as she watched the wave of experts flooding out below.
She had heard Ye Xiong mention Mr. M many times—an extremely terrifying individual. Even if the whole company were to come out in force, there was no guarantee that they would be able to catch him.
