My autobiography is definitely not a tragedy!
Chapter 449 - 296: Paradoxical Body

Chapter 449: Chapter 296: Paradoxical Body

The atmosphere for mountain climbing within the team became somewhat peculiar.

Many people occasionally looked at Meng Lang with the eyes of a warrior.

Hu Yifei was particularly amazed by Meng Lang.

Master Yan, back in his day, had dominated the Black Society with his fists and kicked his way through Chang An Street; both the underworld and the lawful society respectfully called him "Big Brother."

Probably for the first time in many years, someone had glared back at him, and from his expression just now, he seemed to be stunned...

Luckily, Yan Weiwei was present, and there was serious business today; otherwise, he might have wanted to go up and flex his muscles on the spot.

This brother was truly brave...

Yet, Meng Lang was completely relaxed, admiring the beautiful mountainous scenery along the way as if he hadn’t taken the earlier incident to heart at all.

Lin Haitang couldn’t help but lean over and ask in a low voice.

"Do you and Elder Yan have some sort of grudge?"

"Yeah! One could say old hatreds remain and new conflicts have been added."

"Uh... but you’ve only met him twice, right?"

Meeting and creating enmity each time? What efficiency is this?

Meng Lang looked at her, helplessly spreading his hands.

"Sigh! Sometimes life is just so wondrous, love and hate happen in a moment."

Lin Haitang was speechless.

She couldn’t detect the double entendre in Meng Lang’s words and just felt that his perspective on love and hate was a bit hasty...

"Shouldn’t we respect the elderly and love the young? After all, he is Weiwei’s father."

"Respecting the old and loving the young should depend on the person. He belongs to the type where the old turn bad and the bad turn old. You must not be deceived by his kind-looking appearance."

"How do you know?" Lin Haitang asked, looking at him curiously.

How do I know? It’s what you trade a lifetime of happiness for! So you have the right to know...

Meng Lang complained internally.

"You don’t know, I’m quite accurate when it comes to reading faces."

"Reading faces? So after ’counter-surveillance’, now you have a new talent?"

The materialist Lin Haitang rolled her eyes.

"Yeah... that’s the benefit of reading extensively."

Not wanting to miss any exciting content, Xiao Yu had been eavesdropping on their conversation and became intrigued.

"Uncle, can you tell me what my facial features say about me?"

"You..."

Meng Lang glanced at the young girl and replied cheerfully.

"Xiao Yu, when you grow up... you’re definitely going to overturn the world!"

"Ah? Uncle, aren’t you exaggerating? How can you tell?" Xiao Yu touched her little face.

It was rounder lately, but there didn’t seem to be any peculiarly pronounced features, right?

"Eh? Xiao Yu, haven’t you heard that song lyric, ’You know~ even if the heavy rain upturns this city’...?"

Xiao Yu: "..."

Lin Haitang: "..."

So Xiao Yu will turn into heavy rain when she grows up?

Here comes another one of Uncle’s cold jokes...

"Is this joke not funny?"

"Hehe!" The person involved courteously laughed, then her eyes swiftly swiveled around.

"Then Uncle, what about you and Sister’s facial features?"

Meng Lang was startled, turned to look at Lin Haitang, and after seriously examining her, he couldn’t help but sigh.

"Sigh!"

"What’s wrong? Is my face that bad?" Lin Haitang touched her face.

"Nothing, just lamenting how unfair fate can be, why it gave me a physique prone to many sorrows and illnesses, yet gave you such a nation-ruining beauty..."

Lin Haitang: "..."

Xiao Yu was stunned.

Although she felt proud to hear her sister praised, she couldn’t help but pout.

"Uncle, that’s too unfair! I’m going to turn into heavy rain when I grow up, and Sister is a nation-ruining beauty? You’re really biased!"

Apparently, cuteness is negligible in the face of beauty!

Lin Haitang turned her head, her face burning.

Here I am with a physical body prone to many sorrows and illnesses, and you resembling a nation-ruining beauty...

She had read Dream of the Red Chamber; she obviously knew to whom these words were meant.

The hint was a bit too obvious... Was this another confession?

The method of flirting from a Chinese Literature major, she really couldn’t handle it...

Meng Lang observed the reactions of the two.

Okay, they obviously didn’t get the point of that statement.

So much for that preventive measure...

"Ouch~ Ouch~"

Just then, a faint moaning of pain suddenly came from the front of the team.

Soon after, four people were seen descending the mountain, one of whom was a medical staff member wearing a red cross armband, while the other two appeared to be climbers, supporting the injured person in the middle as they walked down with difficulty.

The injured person’s arm was crudely immobilized with bandages and bamboo splints, his face wrought with pain, looking as if he had fractured his arm.

"What happened to you all...?"

"Sigh! The fist doesn’t see the heart, and the defeated must accept their fate!"

Seeing Yan Feng inquire, one of the climbers helping the injured person sighed, obviously not wanting to elaborate, and with a hand gesture, hurriedly took the injured person down the mountain.

Everyone who saw the victim’s condition fell somewhat silent.

No need to ask, it was surely the work of that Li Lei again.

This was definitely a formidable rival!

And extremely dangerous!

Xiao Yu looked worried, "Uncle, Sister Weiwei won’t be in trouble, right?"

Seeing this scene, she truly realized that this trip was not just about leisurely mountain sightseeing.

Meng Lang furrowed his brow.

At first, he had thought that Yan Weiwei’s injuries were due to her own stubborn refusal to give up, but it turned out that this was just Li Lei’s style.

You are so ruthless, does Han Meimei know about this?

"Don’t worry, if push comes to shove, have your sister sue him!"

"But didn’t they all sign that Life and Death Contract?" Xiao Yu was puzzled.

"Let me tell you a secret, the law does not allow citizens to use their right to life as a stake, and a contract formed on illegal grounds has no legal effect," Meng Lang explained earnestly.
