Chapter 364: Black-clothed woman

Li Mengjie giggled and said, "I’m just really curious, how come Grandpa Ling has never remarried since his twenties, all the way till now?"

Ling Xuejiu frowned as he listened, not understanding what Li Mengjie was ultimately getting at, but he let her continue.

Li Mengjie said, "So I was thinking, although Grandpa Ling hasn’t taken another wife, could he have had a woman on the side?"

Ling Xuejiu was livid and yelled, "Xiao Jie, I won’t allow you to talk about my grandpa like that."

Li Mengjie said, "Xue Jiu, don’t be mad, okay? I’m just analyzing the reasons here."

"Analyzing the reasons?" Ling Xuejiu said irritably, "What are you trying to say, exactly?"

Li Mengjie said with a mischievous smile, "It’s simple. If Grandpa Ling really had a woman on the side, then it’s very likely they would have had children, and if those children had children, wouldn’t they resemble Leng Xuan, the Cold Bodyguard? Maybe, just maybe, he could be Grandpa Ling’s grandson or even his son. Hehe..."

Ling Xuejiu’s eyes widened. Hearing Xiao Jie put it that way, it did seem possible. Otherwise, why would her grandfather treat Leng Xuan so well?

Shaking her head, Miss Ling agreed with Li Mengjie’s theory in her heart, but she didn’t want to tarnish her grandfather’s reputation and snorted, saying, "Xiao Jie, stop talking nonsense. Leng Xuan doesn’t look a bit like Grandpa."

Li Mengjie said, "Not resembling someone doesn’t mean there’s no blood relation. You and Uncle Ling and Aunt Ren don’t look much alike either. Does that mean you’re not their biological child?"

Ling Xuejiu, face filled with anger, said, "Xiao Jie, if you keep spouting nonsense, believe it or not, I’ll ignore you from now on?"

Li Mengjie stuck out her tongue and put on an innocent face, "Okay, okay, I’ll stop talking."

Baiyun City Airport!

It was already around 11 pm, a woman dressed in black with sunglasses and a very icy demeanor, dragged a suitcase out from the airport’s main entrance. After looking around for a bit, she took off her sunglasses and got into a taxi. Inside the taxi, she took out her phone and dialed a number.

A few moments later, the call connected, and Xu Renjie’s excited voice came through, "Hey, you’ve arrived?"

The woman in black replied emotionlessly with a hum, and simply asked, "Where should we meet?"

Xu Renjie said, "Emperor Hotel, room 403. I’m already waiting for you here. Just come straight over."

The woman in black uttered a nonchalant "Oh," and at that moment, the taxi driver asked, "May I ask where you would like to go?"

"Emperor Hotel!" The woman in black responded indifferently, concise and cold, without any superfluous words.

Emperor Hotel was very well-known in Baiyun City, and the taxi driver obviously knew the place, so he said "Alright then," started the car, and drove towards the Emperor Hotel, asking as he did, "You’re not a local, are you?"

The woman in black slightly furrowed her brows but didn’t say a word, appearing very aloof.

Although the driver had intended to pry a bit more to find out if this was the woman’s first time visiting and, if so, to take a longer route to charge more for the ride, seeing her cold demeanor made him feel a bit scared, and he quickly decided to take the shortest route instead.

After hanging up the phone, Huang Xiaojun immediately asked, "How is it? Has the assassin arrived?"
