Chapter 178 A Perverted Assassin
The next day, Xiao Yun lay in bed and slept until well past nine o'clock.
After getting up and heading to the living room, Tang Guoqiang and Xiao Yun seemed to share a silent understanding as they nodded at each other, smiling, "Why didn't you sleep a little longer? Why are you up so early?"
So early? Xiao Yun glanced at the time on her wristwatch; it was already past nine.
"Dad, Sister Yan and I need to hurry back to the Galaxy. We can't afford to delay!" Xiao Yun replied with a smile.
Wang Yu and Tang Yan just brought the breakfast they had prepared to the table, and everyone sat down together to eat. Tang Guoqiang said, "You rarely come to Mingzhu. Are you really just going to stay for one night and leave?"
"Yes, stay a few more days!" Wang Yu looked at her daughter with reluctance and urged.
Tang Yan said, "Xiao Yun has a lot on her plate; it's better for us to head back. Besides, the Galaxy isn't far from here. We'll come often in the future."
"Alright then," Tang Guoqiang suddenly changed the subject and asked, "When are you two planning to get married? We're looking forward to celebrating your wedding!"
Tang Yan was taken aback, her face turning red as she looked at Xiao Yun, who responded with a mischievous grin, winking at her.
His meaning was clear: Haha, let's see how you explain this to your parents.
—You big bad guy, you just love watching me make a fool of myself!
Recalling the madness of last night, Tang Yan felt as if she had been worn out by him. Even now, her body felt weak and her face was as red as if it had been splashed with blood, nearly dripping.
Seeing her parents staring at her, Tang Yan thought for a moment and said, "Let's wait a while before getting married. I just divorced Lin Shusheng. If I marry right away, what will others think of me?"
Wang Yu understood her daughter's strong sense of pride and nodded in agreement. "Well... it's up to you to decide when to get married. Just let your dad and me know in advance!"
Only Tang Guoqiang sulked, burying his head in his food, secretly thinking that they didn't understand anything. Xiao Yun was a hot commodity; he worried that if they didn't act soon, he might lose the chance and they would be the ones crying later.
...
As the car left the streets of Pearl City, Xiao Yun smiled at Tang Yan and said, "Sister Yan, let's switch places. I'll drive!"
"It seems you really enjoy driving! Alright, you can take over!"
"Thank you, Sister Yan! You're so good to me!"
"Good? What about other women? Are they not good to you?"
"Well, they're all about the same!"
Just as Xiao Yun settled into the driver's seat, his phone chimed with a text message alert.
He took out his phone and opened it to find a notification from the bank stating that ten million had been deposited into his account.
The money was sent to him by Old Man Qin. Yesterday, when leaving the Qin Family, Xiao Yun gave his account number to Old Man Qin.
Unexpectedly, this old man kept his word to the Young Lady and indeed proved to be a straightforward person!
Xiao Yun happily put away his phone, and Tang Yan, seeing this, immediately lit up with curiosity and asked, "You look as happy as if you've drunk some laughing tea. Which beauty sent you a message?"
"It's from Old Man Qin. This old fellow and I hit it off right away; he texted me to say hello!"
Whoosh—
Once on the highway, Xiao Yun accelerated, and the car shot forward like an arrow.
"Hey, can you drive a bit more steadily?" Tang Yan said, feeling a bit scared.
Xiao Yun smiled innocently and said, "Don't worry, my dear wife; your husband drives very steadily!"
The car flew along the road like a large bird; was that steady? Tang Yan nearly had the impulse to lunge at him and bite him.
"After we get back, we can't call each other husband and wife anymore, understand?" Tang Yan warned him.
Xiao Yun chuckled and said, "You've already given me your body, so why can't I call you that?"
"You are not allowed to mention what happened last night!" Tang Yan's face turned red as she lightly bit her lip, looking charmingly alluring.
"Ha ha, are you afraid it will reach Lin Shusheng's ears? He'll come looking for trouble with you?"
"......"
Tang Yan fell silent, her emotions in turmoil. She had completely lost hope in Lin Shusheng and felt no affection for him at all. Since their separation, they hadn't even shared a meal together.
She knew that Lin was dragging his feet on the divorce; he still feared her father to some extent. Although her father had left the political scene, his connections remained.
But dragging this out with him was not the solution, and it was a headache for her.
After a while...
"Xiao Yun, do you think I'm being foolish?" Tang Yan turned her face to glance at Xiao Yun and asked.
"Yes, you are foolish, Sister Yan. You're completely foolish. Just think about it: he can do whatever he wants outside, so why can't you have a man you love?" Xiao Yun replied with a smile.
"Where am I supposed to find my beloved man?"
"Far away in the sky, but close at hand. Can't you see him right in front of you?"
"Hmph, you..."
Just as Tang Yan was thinking about how to retort, she suddenly noticed Xiao Yun's expression change multiple times, a shadow passing through his eyes. She couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Xiao Yun, what's wrong?"
Xiao Yun said, "We are being followed!"
Tang Yan looked into the rearview mirror and indeed saw an ordinary black sedan closely tailing them.
It seemed that the driver behind was quite skilled; Xiao Yun's car was speeding like a bullet, yet he managed to keep up without losing ground, making him quite a formidable character.
Tang Yan nervously asked, "Who could this person be?"
Xiao Yun used his Spiritual Sense to scan through the rearview mirror.
A long-legged heron, and, uh, with a grayish-white Zombie Face...
"It’s the person who broke into your room last night to steal your underwear!" Xiao Yun said in a low voice. He couldn't believe this guy had the audacity to follow them after stealing someone’s underwear.
Little did they know, this person was Wu Xiong, sent by Lin Shusheng.
"This... how could it be him?" Tang Yan was puzzled.
Xiao Yun said, "Sister Yan, fasten your seatbelt and hold on tight!" As soon as he finished speaking, he stepped on the gas, and the White Volkswagen Polo executed a spectacular drift, disappearing in an instant.
Screech—
The black sedan rushed forward like the wind, and a sharp screech of brakes suddenly echoed.
Wu Xiong pushed open the car door and climbed out, looking around. What the hell, how did that car suddenly disappear in front of me?
What is going on?
Whoosh!
Just as he was feeling confused, a White Volkswagen Polo flashed by him like a shadow.
Is this a game of hide and seek?
A cruel smile flickered across Wu Xiong's face. Hmph, they really underestimate me!
The black car instantly shot forward like a bolt of lightning…
"Sister Yan, no matter what happens later, you must stay in the car. Don't come out unless I say so," Xiao Yun said coldly, glancing at the black car that was catching up in the rearview mirror.
Earlier, he had deliberately drifted the car, quickly sliding behind a row of flowering trees in the middle of the highway, waiting for that car to chase after them and pass by. In that brief moment, he had already sensed the intense killing intent emanating from that person.
Tang Yan's face turned pale at his words, her lips trembling as she asked, "Xiao Yun, who exactly is that person following us?"
"A perverted assassin," Xiao Yun replied calmly.
