After being reborn, she went on a killing spree in both the Yin and Yang realms.

Chapter 67 I'm Someone You Can't Afford to Hire

Just then, Ling Yue heard someone calling her!

When I turned around, it was Jing Yucheng!

He was only 100 meters away from me, having just gotten out of the car, and was walking towards me step by step.

Ling Yue was thrilled and began to rush towards Jing Yucheng without hesitation. She was sure that she would use her best 100-meter sprint time to run towards Jing Yucheng!

She was afraid that if she hesitated even a second, the ghost baby would rip her heart out with its bare hands!

Ling Yue saw Jing Yucheng right in front of her! Then she lunged at him.

Fortunately, Jing Yucheng reacted quickly and caught Ling Yue, who was lunging at him.

At this moment, Ling Yue clung tightly to Jing Yucheng's neck like a koala.

"Jing Yucheng, did you...did you see that mother and child?"

Ling Yue had her face buried in Jing Yucheng's neck, not daring to look anywhere, and her words were starting to slip out.

"Yes, I saw it. Take your hand away."

"I do not want!"

Perhaps frightened, Ling Yue subconsciously refused, tightening her grip on Jing Yucheng's neck and burying her head lower and lower towards his chest.

Jing Yucheng not only felt a burning sensation on the back of his neck, but also felt the hot breath exhaled by Ling Yue due to her rapid breathing coming from inside his neck...

It felt as if the heat went directly into my heart, making me feel both itchy and hot.

Helplessly, he used both hands to lift Ling Yue's legs, which were slipping down, and now his neck no longer hurt.

Maintaining this posture, Jing Yucheng walked step by step toward Ling Yue's house. On the way, he passed by the mother and child. He gave them a warning look, and the vengeful ghost immediately picked up the ghost baby in a strange posture and hurriedly left.

Ling Yue was practically burying her head inside Jing Yucheng's clothes; she had no idea this was even happening.

Jing Yucheng carried Ling Yue all the way to her house without any effort.

Liang Lina returned from working overtime at the company and had just parked her car in the garage when she came out and saw Jing Yucheng carrying Ling Yue toward the living room.

What's going on? When did the two of them start dating? She was still struggling with how to talk to her daughter about the marriage with Jing Yucheng, and now they've already started dating freely?

She thought about this as she closed the door.

Before I even got back to the living room, I overheard their conversation.

"We're at your house, can you get down now?"

"My legs are numb, my hands are numb, I can't move..."

Uh, what kind of inappropriate dialogue is this?

Liang Lina hurriedly entered the living room, only to find this scene.

Jing Yucheng placed Ling Yue on the sofa. Ling Yue's hands still didn't let go of his neck. She first looked around to see if the ghost mother and child had followed them. Only after confirming that they hadn't did she release Jing Yucheng.

He collapsed onto the sofa without any regard for his image.

"Jing Yucheng, they really are afraid of you. How about I hire you as my bodyguard from now on?"

Jing Yucheng stood next to her, looking down at her, and almost laughed. She wanted to be his bodyguard.

"I'm someone you can't afford to hire."

That's true, probably no one in this world can afford to hire him.

"Oh, Mr. Jing, it's so late. I didn't know you were coming. I'm so sorry for not welcoming you properly."

Upon hearing her mother's voice, Ling Yue, who had just been slumped over, instantly straightened up and jumped off the sofa.

"Mom, you're still awake? Haha."

Jing Yucheng replied in a standard manner, "I was asked to come and see Ling Yue."

It must be that her master, Master Jia, was worried about her, so he sent Jing Yucheng to check on her.

"Mr. Jing, please have a seat. What would you like to drink? I'll go prepare it."

Seeing that Liang Lina was dressed in a suit, Jing Yucheng guessed that she had just returned from work. Seeing that Ling Yue had arrived home safely, he could finally report back.

"No need to trouble Madam Ling, Ling Yue has arrived home safely, I'll be leaving now."

After Jing Yucheng finished speaking, he walked out. Seeing this, Liang Lina quickly said, "Let Ling Yue see you off!"

After saying that, he pushed Ling Yue, who was hanging on his arm.

Well, I really have to thank Jing Yucheng. If he hadn't appeared in time, I don't know if she would have been able to get home safely.

Ling Yue followed behind Jing Yucheng and realized that Xiao Jia, the bodyguard who had always been with him, was not with him this time.

"Where's Xiao Jia?"

"He was injured a couple of days ago and is in the hospital."

Injured? Is someone trying to harm Jing Yucheng? How dare he come out alone so recklessly without bodyguards?

"Thank you just now, Jing Yucheng."

Looking at the pitch-black night, Ling Yue was still a little scared and blurted out, "Could you please not leave?"

The ghost mother and child didn't appear again because they were afraid of Jing Yucheng, but now that Jing Yucheng is gone, won't she be in trouble?

Jing Yucheng thought he was hallucinating. Was she asking him to stay overnight at her house?

How dignified!

He stopped, intending to lecture Ling Yue, but when he turned around, he saw her weak and helpless state, her eyes filled with fear.

Her tone instantly softened considerably: "Isn't Lu Boqing at your house? Don't worry, everything's fine. Go back and rest now."

Oh yeah, she was really scared! Lu Boqing brought Ling Yi back, so she should still be with him. What is she afraid of?

"Goodbye."

After saying that, he hurriedly ran back to the living room.

Jing Yucheng: ...

They said goodbye without even seeing me off at the gate?

Jing Yucheng smiled and shook his head, then looked at Ling Yue's retreating figure before leaving.

Back in the house, Ling Yue was bombarded with questions from Liang Lina, which she evaded with laughter and chuckles.

After finally getting upstairs, she went straight to Ling Yi's room and, sure enough, saw Lu Boqing, who was telling Ling Yi a bedtime story.

Why does he seem like a super dad right now?

After Ling Yi fell asleep, Ling Yue told Lu Boqing the whole story of encountering the ghost mother and son.

After listening, Lu Boqing touched his nose, his tone still as irritating as ever: "You really need to learn some skills from Jia Zhengjing. You couldn't even handle a ghost baby, and you almost got your heart ripped out by Black Tiger."

Pshaw, she's already become an apprentice, so please stop bringing up her sore spots.

"I feel that the ghost mother and child should still be near my house. They only ran away because they were afraid of Jing Yucheng."

"Okay, let's take the order, Lingyue. We'll go meet them later."

Taking the order? Ling Yue wondered if what they were doing was considered stealing the job since Jia Zhengjing had already agreed to the commission.

"But Qingqing, Master Jia has already accepted someone else's commission. Wouldn't it be unethical for us to do this? Wouldn't that be considered intercepting someone else's commission? How are we going to explain this to him later?"

"Idiot! What's your relationship with Jia Zhengjing now?"

"I just successfully became an apprentice today..."

"That settles it. Since you're his apprentice, taking in this mother and son is essentially helping him complete his mission. He'll be overjoyed. Besides, even if you weren't master and apprentice, who can stop me from doing what I'm about to do?"

Ling Yue: You're awesome, you're the best.
