Chapter 96: Chapter 096: Whether It Was Eaten or Not

"I bought it, spent nearly ten thousand yuan, Chen Cang, such expensive stuff you could’ve enjoyed yourself, why bother giving it to that bastard?"

The monkey said with a heartache.

Chen Cang, on the other hand, didn’t care about the money, as long as he could kill Tang Ming, anything was worth it.

After school in the afternoon, Chen Cang took Monkey and Xiao Jun to the Liu Family’s villa again.

Liu Mengting saw this guy’s thick skin and mocked him sarcastically, "Chen Cang, have you nothing better to do? Why do you keep coming to my house instead of going back to your own?"

"Meng Ting, I’m just showing concern for you and Xiaoli’s illness. Plus, I chatted with Tang Ming this morning, he loves the Lingzhi I gave him, so I bought some more at noon to bring over."

Chen Cang said ingratiatingly.

"More Lingzhi?"

Liu Mengting originally thought the Lingzhi Chen Cang gave was poisoned, but seeing that Tang Ming was fine, she could only purse her lips and say, "You really have too much money. Those Lingzhi must cost over ten thousand, right? You give them every day, Tang Ming that guy must be over the moon."

"It’s okay, after today there’s no need to give any more, hehe."

Having said that, Chen Cang let Xiao Jun take the Lingzhi inside and hand it over to Tang Ming. If something really happened, they’d say the Lingzhi was bought by Xiao Jun, and let him take the fall. Anyway, it didn’t go through his hands, so he’d have an excuse later on.

A few minutes later, the three of them left the villa and laughed out loud in the car.

Chen Cang said viciously, "Eat it and die, you bastard, let’s see who can save you this time."

When Tang Ming received the Lingzhi and opened it, my goodness, the embedded poison was even fiercer than yesterday’s—his eyes smiled at the thought of increasing his power greatly this time.

He quickly took the stuff to the second floor and ate it without saying a word, then began to meditate and cultivate. With yesterday’s experience, refining it today was even easier, and after half an hour, Tang Ming felt he was about to touch the bottleneck of his cultivation and possibly make a breakthrough at any moment. He really had to thank that dead fly, helping him improve his cultivation every day.

Downstairs, the call for dinner came. After finishing his cultivation, Tang Ming hurriedly went down, sat at the table, and his appetite surged at the sight of the full spread.

"Tang Ming, where’s the Lingzhi Chen Cang gave you just now?"

Liu Mengting, seeing Tang Ming had earlier taken the Lingzhi upstairs excitedly, asked out of curiosity.

"I ate it. That stuff is a great tonic; it’s been quite helpful to me."

Grabbing his bowl and chopsticks, Tang Ming began to eat, acting like nothing was wrong.

Li Xiaoli smiled cunningly, "I knew it. Brother Tang Ming is the strongest. That dead fly’s tricks can’t touch you. In the future, let him bring more, even better if he sends until he’s broke, haha. After brother eats it, he’ll be able to protect us properly!"

Liu Mengting’s heart also settled, seeing Tang Ming look unscathed, she knew at least Chen Cang’s tricks were no match for him.

Classes continued on Tuesday, and Tang Ming still dreamed of meeting the Duke of Zhou at his desk.

Chen Cang arrived at classroom five early with Monkey, peering through the window, saw Tang Ming sleeping just like yesterday, enjoying his lazy morning; this puzzled them.

Chen Cang rubbed his eyes in disbelief, thinking he was hallucinating, "This guy is still fine."

"Brother Cang, I suspect there’s nothing wrong with the poison we used both times."

Monkey analyzed.

"Oh? Then what went wrong?"

Chen Cang asked curiously.

"The problem is that Tang Ming might not have eaten what we gave him at all, but claimed he did."

Monkey scratched his head as he analyzed.

"You make sense, damn, that kid played us."

Chen Cang thought and said, "I have to ask Meng Ting to see if that little brat really ate my Lingzhi."

"Exactly, you only know if you ask,"

The monkey nodded in agreement.

Chen Cang waited until the first class ended and then stood in the corridor, waiting for Liu Mengting. Sure enough, Liu Mengting, who had gone to the restroom, walked back toward their classroom with Li Xiaoli, hand in hand.

Chen Cang hurried over to stop them, and Liu Mengting immediately said with irritation, "Chen Cang, what are you trying to do now? Not letting us pass in the school corridor during broad daylight!"

"Meng Ting, don’t get me wrong, I just want to ask you, did Tang Ming eat the Lingzhi I gave him?"

Chen Cang asked with an apologetic smile.

"He ate it. After you delivered it yesterday, Tang Ming ate it even before dinner and said that if you have more, you could deliver it every day."

Liu Mengting frowned as she spoke.

"He really ate it? Was it tasty?"

Chen Cang became puzzled because if Tang Ming truly had eaten the Lingzhi, how could he be all right? He knew the deadly poison he bought yesterday could kill a tiger in seconds with just one drop, let alone the amount he provided, which should have been enough to kill a hundred Tang Mings.

"Whether it’s tasty or not, I wouldn’t know. You should go ask Tang Ming yourself since I didn’t eat any of the Lingzhi you sent."

Liu Mengting said impatiently, and then she quickly left the place with Li Xiaoli, heading back to Class 5’s classroom.

"How could he be fine after eating it?"

Confused, Chen Cang racked his brain but couldn’t make sense of it until he suddenly had a realization. "Certainly, that Tang Ming kid must have tricked Meng Ting. He didn’t really eat it at all and just told Meng Ting that he did. It has to be the case."

After another class, Chen Cang ran to Class 5’s classroom and approached the seats of Liu Mengting and Li Xiaoli.

Despite being beaten up by Tang Ming, Chen Cang’s notoriety persisted, and the students of Class 5 kept their distance, fearing to provoke him.

"Chen Cang, your skin is really thick. You’ve come to find Sister Meng Meng several times just this morning. Aren’t you annoying?"

Li Xiaoli said with dissatisfaction upon seeing Chen Cang coming over again.

"I didn’t come looking for you, so I don’t know what you’re annoyed about,"

Chen Cang turned to Liu Mengting and asked with a smile:

"Meng Ting, I’d like to ask again: did you actually see Tang Ming eat the Lingzhi I gave him?"

Liu Mengting was also fed up with Chen Cang and said irritably, "Are you sick or something? Do I have nothing better to do than to watch Tang Ming all day at home? Why should I care whether he eats the Lingzhi you sent or not?"

"Hehehe, that’s right!"

Li Xiaoli laughed, very grateful for Liu Mengting sticking up for her.

"No, Meng Ting, I just want to confirm whether Tang Ming ate the Lingzhi I sent or not. That stuff is expensive, and I’m worried about it going to waste,"

Chen Cang hurriedly explained.

"Hehehe, that’s funny, Chen Cang. Are you suggesting that Sister Meng Meng and Brother Tang Ming should live together? That way, it would be convenient for her to keep an eye out every day to see if Tang Ming Brother is eating the things you send, right?"

Li Xiaoli laughed and Liu Mengting’s face turned red, and she glared at her.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Liu Mengting chided her, clearly unhappy.

Li Xiaoli knew she spoke out of turn, quickly shut her mouth, and stuck out her tongue.

"Huh? Tang Ming is your brother? Or is he a relative from the countryside?"

Chen Cang picked up on Li Xiaoli’s words as if he’d discovered a new continent and asked hastily.
