Chapter 584: Chapter 584: This Matter, It’s a Bit Strange

"Wake up, sleepyhead!"

Ning Mengyao’s calling voice woke up Yang Linglong.

It also woke up Lin Fan beneath the bed.

Huddled under the bed, he saw those four long legs appear in front of him again.

The delicate and adorable little feet were so exquisite.

One could hardly resist the urge to pinch them.

But he couldn’t yet tell whose feet they were.

"You should be going to work, right?"

Stretching languidly, Yang Linglong took Ning Mengyao’s hand.

She couldn’t be left alone in the house.

She also pointed to a message that Li Qiqi had sent in the group on her phone.

Today, Lin Fan was supposed to go shopping with Zhao Jiaqi.

But she didn’t reveal Zhao Jiaqi’s identity as Ni Chang.

After all, Lin Fan had repeatedly cautioned that this must be kept strictly confidential.

"This morning, a trendy fashion brand wants to come to my company to discuss some business, getting ready to set up a few stores on the commercial street. Since you’re free anyway, why don’t you come with me to the company and we can talk about it together?"

Ning Mengyao nodded with a giggly smile.

She instinctively glanced under the bed.

"I don’t know anything about trending brands, let alone the nature of your work. What good will I do in negotiations? Maybe I should just stay at home."

Yang Linglong feigned reluctance.

After all, if she agreed right away, wouldn’t that raise Lin Fan’s suspicions?

"You can’t be like a lovesick stone all day. Since your boyfriend isn’t here, what’s the point of staying home? However, when your boyfriend comes back, let’s have a meal together. You can also meet my ugly ogre of a husband then, so you’ll see what kind of toad has snatched up this swan meat,"

Ning Mengyao never missed an opportunity to speak ill of Lin Fan.

She wanted to brag about it now.

"Sure, I’ll ask him about it then."

Ning Mengyao also wanted to make a snide comment.

But thinking it might raise suspicions, she held back.

So, as usual, the two women went into the bathroom.

Those perfect figures entered Lin Fan’s view once again.

But this time, Lin Fan felt it was just too abnormal.

"Do women love to bathe so much?"

They had clearly bathed last night, but they were at it again first thing in the morning.

It seemed almost as if they were deliberately bathing for him to see.

This made Lin Fan lying under the bed even more suspicious.

If it were just one day, it might not be a big deal.

But to bathe with the door open two days in a row was just too unreasonable.

Yesterday at home, Ning Mengyao knew he was under the bed but still didn’t close the door.

Knowing full well he could see, she wouldn’t betray her best friend just to please him, would she?

And now it was the same situation with Yang Linglong, knowing full well he could peek,

she still let Ning Mengyao take a shower and even stood in such a conspicuous spot.

It was almost as if she was afraid he wouldn’t see.

This was way too abnormal.

And besides, these two girls deliberately showed off their bodies in each other’s homes.

As if they were saying, look all you want, we dare you to touch.

A bold thought appeared in Lin Fan’s mind.

Could it be, they already knew about his ruse?

The current signs suggested this was a possibility.

But it was just a possibility; he dared not rush out recklessly.

After all, if he guessed wrong,

the consequences would be beyond what he could bear.

So, he stayed honestly under the bed.

Not until the two women chattered out of the bathroom, each dressed and left the house,

did he finally crawl out from under the bed.

Lying on the bed that still retained the warmth of the two women, he looked at the message Yang Linglong had sent.

Clearly, today she was too busy to accompany him.

"Could it be that those two are in cahoots to deceive me?"

Putting down his phone, Lin Fan lay with his arms as a pillow, staring at the ceiling.

If his own affairs had been exposed.

The notion that the two women were collaborating to make a fool of him seemed a reasonable explanation.

However, verifying this would be no easy task.

Every misstep could have unimaginable consequences.

But then again, if he had been found out and the two women had made no move to confront him,

and had not shown the slightest bit of jealousy,

then his future life would be far too comfortable.

Upon entering the bathroom, he was greeted by the enchanting beauty of the two women.

Being best friends, they had no aversions to each other’s bodies.

If he had the chance, it would indeed be a delight for everyone involved.

But such thoughts were merely wishful thinking.

Some things, time would provide an answer for.

While Lin Fan was still indulging in the lingering scent of the women and his solitary fantasies,

a message from Ni Chang had already come through.

"Qi Qi has prepared breakfast and is asking if you want to come over and eat together."

"No problem, I’ll be right there."

After replying to the message, Lin Fan finally got up.

After washing up, he opened the window and climbed out.

After all, that was how he had arrived the night before.

Taking a taxi, Lin Fan quickly reached the entrance of Medicine King House.

Qi Qi, as usual, was standing there; upon seeing Lin Fan, she fluttered over like a butterfly.

She jumped directly into Lin Fan’s arms—all so natural.

"Did you get up very early again this morning?"

Holding the petite Qi Qi, Lin Fan pinched her slightly chubby cheek.

"It’s not that early, and besides, with the cultivation technique Sister Ni Chang gave me, I feel spirited after exercising it, not at all sleepy. I made soup for you, and just now the Heavenly Master even praised it for being especially flavorful today, so come in quickly and try some."

Qi Qi tugged at Lin Fan’s hand.

Being able to cook for her beloved brought her the greatest joy.

"Ah, just thinking about you going back with Grandma to cultivate in seclusion, I’ll be missing all these delicious meals."

Lin Fan held Qi Qi’s tender little hand.

Sometimes, parting is truly unbearable.

"But once I finish the seclusion, I won’t go anywhere ever again, is that okay? I’ll make you delicious food every day."

Li Qiqi turned back, gazing at Lin Fan with devoted eyes.

"Okay, then you won’t be allowed to leave when the time comes."

Lin Fan affectionately tousled Li Qiqi’s hair.

This little girl was always so endearing.

Yet, as the two were about to step into Medicine King House,

a figure suddenly landed beside them.

"Why are you here?"

Lin Fan looked at the imposing and stern Shangguan Min Yue.

Her coolness was intrinsic.

Even in this vibrant world, she remained singular and unyielding.

Just like her Qingfeng Sword, commanding respect and not to be trifled with.

"This is a letter from Medicine King Valley that arrived yesterday."

Shangguan Min Yue handed Lin Fan an envelope.

As Lin Fan opened it, he saw that it was personally written by Xue Muhua, the Valley Master of Medicine King Valley.

The gist of it was that he had long been waiting for Shangguan Min Yue to come for secluded cultivation.

Moreover, a powerful figure had taken up residence in Medicine King Valley recently; he had the influence to accept Shangguan Min Yue as a disciple, allowing her to establish her own sect.

While the name of this esteemed figure was not disclosed, his backing meant that Shangguan Min Yue would no longer be harassed by her former sect.

"So, you’ve come to say goodbye?"

Having read the letter, Lin Fan finally looked up at Shangguan Min Yue.

The next moment, the icy Qingfeng Sword was already resting against his neck.
