Chapter 453: Chapter 0453: Tacitly Agreeing with Your Intentions
"No more words are needed, my mind is made up, I must leave this time!"
Tang Ming waved his hand, If it weren’t for his cultivation being a waste, he wouldn’t want to leave, but things had come to this point, and he had to go.
"Is there really no room for discussion at all?"
Liu Gaoze looked at Tang Ming with knitted brows, The Tang Ming of the past was easy to talk to, why had he become so unyielding this time?
"There is nothing to discuss, even if I can’t break off the engagement, I must still leave."
Tang Ming nodded without hesitation, firmly stating, "After I go back, I will find a way to get the old man to locate the third party’s people, when we meet with all three parties, we’ll still have to call off the marriage."
Liu Gaoze stared at Tang Ming for a long while before speaking helplessly,
"Sigh, since that’s the case, I don’t have much else to say. It’s been good knowing each other, let’s part on good terms. The money you lent me, I’ll transfer it to your account when my finances are less tight, don’t worry!"
"Thanks, Uncle, for your understanding. If nothing unexpected happens, I will leave tomorrow."
Tang Ming sighed deeply and nodded.
"So soon?" Liu Gaoze was slightly taken aback, he hadn’t expected Tang Ming to be so urgent, he said with concern,
"The experts from the Dark Group haven’t arrived yet, what if someone comes to harm Meng Ting in this period?"
"Don’t worry, even if I am gone, my deterrent presence remains; no one would dare to target Liu Mengting in the short term."
Tang Ming smiled confidently, analyzing, "The Flying Wolf Organization has temporarily gone silent, they won’t move against Liu Mengting so quickly."
Although this was said, Tang Ming was genuinely a bit worried about Liu Mengting’s safety, but he was powerless, With his current condition, even if he stayed, he’d be of no use. If real danger came, he wouldn’t be able to help; he would only become a burden.
"Alright, I’ll request the organization to send protection for Meng Ting as soon as possible." Liu Gaoze nodded with resignation and then tried to cheer up as he said,
"Regardless, we’ve gotten to know each other, let me hold a farewell banquet for you tomorrow."
"No need." Tang Ming decisively refused, smiling as he said,
"Our relationship has just been professional, there’s no need to make it so close, and I also don’t want to make the atmosphere too sad."
Upon hearing these words, Liu Gao grew slightly irritated, whatever the case, they had been together for so long and were friends, but Tang Ming’s words were too cold.
"If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back and pack my things. Tomorrow, after I say goodbye to my friends, I will leave!"
Ignoring Liu Gaoze’s reaction, Tang Ming spoke and left the study.
"Isn’t this kid a bit too brutal in severing ties?" After Tang Ming left, Liu Gaoze frowned and said with a huff of irritation.
In truth, Tang Ming didn’t have much to pack, he just didn’t want to stay with Liu Gaoze. Once back in his room, he collapsed onto the bed, reflecting on everything that had happened in the past few months, filled with reluctance and helplessness.
"Sigh, once I’m back, I’ll try my best to recover my cultivation. If I manage to regain it in a short time, I will certainly come back... to continue calling off the engagement."
Tang Ming thought resolutely and pulled over the blanket to start sleeping.
In the hospital, inside Jack’s hospital room.
Qin Aotian looked at Jack with a speechless expression, "Nephew, our speculation might have been wrong. Today’s surveillance on Tang Ming reported that he wasn’t injured at all, moving around as if nothing happened."
"No way?" Jack frowned with confusion,
"The Three-star Cross Training Martial Master Shi Tou was blasted to a point where he hasn’t woken up till now, how could Tang Ming be completely fine?"
"But in truth, he is completely fine, able to eat, drink, and flirt with women."
Qin Aotian was also very frustrated about this.
"It’s an act, he must be pretending," Jack said through gritted teeth:
"Uncle Qin, you need to send some people to test him right away, I’m sure he is faking it."
"Well... all right, I’ll send someone to test him tomorrow."
Qin Aotian nodded his head and then left the hospital room.
"Dad, are we really going to send someone to test Tang Ming?"
As soon as Qin Aotian stepped out, Qin Haitian came up to him and asked uncertainly.
"Test my ass!" Qin Aotian curled his lip, saying warily:
"According to the reports from the people below, Tang Ming wasn’t injured at all. If we provoke him now, our Qin family would be in big trouble."
Qin Haitian looked at Qin Aotian with confusion: "But you still agreed to Jack..."
"I was deceiving him, what else could I do?" Qin Aotian snorted coldly, saying with disgust:
"Who does he think he is, giving me orders like that? If it weren’t for the sake of the Yang family, I wouldn’t even bother with him. Let’s go home and sleep. Let him heal here by himself, and we won’t come looking for him if it’s not necessary."
The Qin family’s intelligence personnel who went to investigate Tang Ming followed him for a day and did not find anything unusual, which is why Qin Aotian now wouldn’t dare take the risk to test Tang Ming.
This was precisely the result Tang Ming wanted to achieve: let everyone know he was fine, then leave quickly. This would maintain his deterrent power over these people and also buy Liu Gaoze time.
In the middle of the night, Tang Ming, who was sleeping in bed drowsily, was suddenly awakened by a sparse noise in the room.
"Who’s there, not sleeping at this hour?"
Tang Ming drowsily turned on the light, complaining, and when he saw what was going on, he was taken aback.
It turned out that Li Xiaoli had somehow slipped into Tang Ming’s room, and...
Li Xiaoli, with her hair down, was wearing a seductive and revealing tight-fitting slip-nightgown. Her bust was semi-visible, with black lace fabric that was almost completely translucent, making her fair skin especially glaring under the light.
"Brother Tang Ming, you’re awake," Li Xiaoli stood in front of the window, her face flushed as she asked:
"Do I look good in this?"
"What, what are you trying to do?"
Tang Ming sat up, feeling a warm flow from his nose.
"Oh, why is Brother Tang Ming bleeding from his nose?" Li Xiaoli quickly sat by the bedside, asking with concern.
Looking at Li Xiaoli’s bosom, almost bursting out, Tang Ming felt dizzy; he swiftly pulled over the covers, pinched his nose and shouted:
"What on earth do you want? Running into my room in the middle of the night dressed like this, aren’t you afraid I’ll commit a crime?"
"If a girl dresses like this, doesn’t it mean she’s giving you permission to commit the crime?" Li Xiaoli gave Tang Ming a look, saying coquettishly:
"Before, you were Meng Meng’s bodyguard, so we couldn’t be together. But now that you’re a free man, everything that happens between us is totally reasonable."
"What’s that even supposed to mean? Is there any logic in that?" Tang Ming looked at Li Xiaoli, speechless.
"Apparently not." Li Xiaoli laughed flirtatiously, sticking out her chest and saying:
"During the midterms, we made a bet that if you scored higher than sister Meng Meng, I would let you touch me here. Do you want to feel?"
