Chapter 11: Heavenly Thunder
The Xie Mansion's study is located on the north side of the garden. After passing through the winding path shaded by trees, Xie Ling's footsteps quickened, and her mind kept conjuring up all sorts of romantic scenes from the time-travel stories...
In a desolate and ancient time and space, the female lead who wore golden fingers met her destined male lead. There was always a reason for them to fall in love with each other. Perhaps it was the moment their eyes met, or perhaps it was that casual glance back at him, he would unknowingly fall deeply in love with that one scoop of weak water from three thousand miles away...
She is now the legitimate daughter of the Shangshu family...
She is still the nation-toppling and city-overturning transmigrating female...
He...
Xie Ling stopped in front of the study door, smoothed out her disheveled hair bun, hesitated for a moment, then lifted up her skirt and stepped quietly over the threshold...
The large courtyard was empty, with no one in sight. The ground was littered with debris. The three bright and spacious main rooms were wide open on all sides. Xie Ling walked to the entrance and heard a faint voice coming from inside. She suddenly hesitated. Her sister had said that he was their family's arch-nemesis, and last night... What would she say if she went in? Was she going to tell him...
She suddenly became timid, her face flushed with a faint red glow, turned around and wanted to leave, walked a few steps, suddenly thought of those female leads who were entangled with the male lead, the male lead seemed not to be disgusted, but instead liked those "daring to break through etiquette" transmigrated women more and more, if she herself gave up halfway, it would be too unimpressive!
Just as he was hesitating, a loud shout came from inside "Who's there?" A big man rushed out of the study, holding a knife in his hand and looking fierce, it was Ma Fang from last night.
"Ah......" Xie Ling was startled and took a step back, covering her mouth.
Not only was she startled, but Ma Fang was also frightened when he saw her, his eyes wide with surprise, stuttering: "You... you're not that..." His brain circuitry couldn't understand the scene in front of him, and for a moment, he even forgot to have any improper thoughts.
"Boss..." Ma Fang shouted.
Chang Qing walked out from inside, raised her head to see Xie Ling, furrowed her sword-like eyebrows - last night that woman guarded them with her life, fighting to the death to protect these people without a single leak, yet she still let this little girl come here?
"Older brother..." Ma Fang rubbed his head, gazing at the pie that had fallen from the sky with sparkling eyes. Suddenly, he slapped his thigh and laughed loudly: "I don't care where she came from, in any case, she's mine now!" As he spoke, he was about to go forward and hug Xie Ling. Chang Qing let out a snort and turned around to head back to the study, but suddenly heard Xie Ling say: "Hey! Hey, what are you doing? Chang... older brother Chang, save me..."
Older brother?
Ma Fang heard this and his body shook, that hand didn't dare to stretch out again. Looking at Xie Ling's fearless appearance, he glanced at Chang Qing and said: "You... know our boss?" - No way, the usually unapproachable and cold boss, actually has a connection with the daughter of the Wen family, messed up, messed up!
After Xie Ling's retreat, she took a deep breath and stepped forward with three steps in two strides, pulling on Chang Qing's sleeve: "Chang Ge, you have to save me..." - She was worried that she couldn't find an excuse to get close to Chang Qing, but now she finally found one. Hero saving beauty, eternal legend, isn't it?
Chang Qing was dazed, looking down at Xie Ling holding onto his sleeve, so strange, had he gone mad from last night's scare? But he didn't have the mind to get entangled with this young lady now, he stretched out a hand and walked towards the study.
"Cháng qīng!" Xie Ling saw that Cháng Qīng was ignoring her and stomped her foot, shouting.
Little did I know that it was already gone from sight in just a few steps.
Xie Ling stared blankly at Chang Qing's disappearing back, suddenly tears fell, she thought to herself... Chang Qing might tease, get angry, scold, but didn't expect the other party to be too lazy to care, wasn't he her male lead? Even if not, it was impossible to ignore her, such a stunning beauty, and also a transmigrator, how could...
"Miss......" Ma Fang suddenly spoke up, swallowing his saliva and stuttering: "You and Lao Da are......" He had never seen a woman so familiar with Chang Qing before, and for the moment, he put aside his suspicions.
Xie Ling turned her head and looked at Ma Fang, her eyes brimming with tears, sorrowful and heartbreaking.
"Wow... don't cry, I didn't do anything to you...... Boss, can you please handle this? What's going on?" Ma Fang was scared by Xie Ling and jumped three feet high, turned around and flew into the study room, where he saw Chang Qing standing in front of the desk, staring at the piles of letters with a thoughtful expression.
"Older brother, that girl... what's going on between you two? If she were your woman, I wouldn't dare to make a move even if I had a hundred guts!" Ma Fang scratched his head.
Chang Qing didn't respond, he just stared blankly at those letters.
"Boss?" Ma Fang wanted to walk forward, but under the pressure of Ji Wei, he didn't dare, and stood there, looking at Chang Qing, then turned his head to look out the door at the girl, seeing her standing in the courtyard with a resentful expression, the gentle breeze blowing up the greenery, sunlight shining on that stunning face, even though she was wearing a grey long gown, it couldn't hide her captivating beauty...
Only such a beautiful girl can match up to Big Brother's exceptional character...
Ma Fang thought to himself and stepped forward, flattering: "Boss, do you want me to secretly send her to your barracks?" As long as the raw rice is cooked into a mature meal, even if the Xie family commits a crime, they will have no choice. This second miss is definitely the boss's person. But before he had finished speaking, he heard Chang Qing say: "Catch her!"
"What?" Ma Fang's eyes widened.
"Seize her!" Chang Qing turned around, a cold smile at the corner of his mouth, saying: "What we can't find, she may not necessarily be unable to find."
"Which one?" Ma Fang looked at Chang Qing, then gazed at Xie Ling, and after a long while, he reacted and said: "Boss, you mean to catch this guy and let that unlucky girl from yesterday come find him?"
Chang Qing nodded and jerked his chin: "Go."
Ma Fang pouted and said, "Boss, don't you know her?" Before he finished speaking, he saw Chang Qing's face suddenly turn gloomy, and hastily shut his mouth, saying, "Alright, alright, I'll go now." He quickly walked out, unfolded his light skill, and soon disappeared into the courtyard.
Xie Ling was heartbroken, seeing Ma Fang suddenly leave, she wiped away her tears and suddenly smiled again.
Evergreen talent must be intentional!
It's just that with her beauty, which man wouldn't be moved? He was just pretending to be cool in front of outsiders. Now that the outsiders are gone, he will definitely... Xie Ling hesitated for a moment, then gathered her courage and stepped into the study. Inside, everything was in disarray. Chang Qing had his back to her, his tall figure reflected in the window frame, making him appear even more slender and resolute.
"Brother Chang..." Xie Ling called out in a quivering voice.
