Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Seeing Ye Qing's bewildered expression, Lin Qianyu sneered and said, "Keep pretending!"

"I really don't know!" Ye Qing said.

"Hmph, Ye Qing, I don't care how much you liked this girl before, or what your current situation is," Lin Qianyu said coldly. "But now, you are nominally my fiancé, and you will marry me in a while. Jiangcheng is a small city. If you have too much contact with other women, it's easy for my second uncle and his family to see or bump into you. They might even be sending people to follow you every day!"

“Our engagement will be very complicated then!” Lin Qianyu said. “We are getting married by agreement. I won’t interfere in your private affairs. After we get divorced, you can do whatever you want, but before that, I hope you can exercise some restraint!”

"What are you talking about?!" Ye Qing was completely bewildered. He racked his brains for a moment, then said helplessly, "I really don't know who Yang Xiaoxiao is!"

"Hmph!" Lin Qianyu sneered, "Your high school deskmate! I'll say it again, our marriage is a contractual one, I won't be jealous of your past!"

"My high school deskmate?" Ye Qing was taken aback. "I think that's her name, but I haven't seen her for years... Besides, I have absolutely no relationship with her! She likes me, but I don't like her!"

"Really?" Lin Qianyu said, "But... Zhuo Fan clearly told me that after you went missing, she went to look for you in your village and cried for several days, saying that you promised her that you would be with her as soon as you graduated!"

"Bullshit!" Ye Qing said, "When did I agree to her?"

He thought about it carefully for a while, then something came to his mind and he said, "Oh my god, I remember now. She secretly wrote me love letters back then, and I told her that I wouldn't date before graduation, but I never promised her that I would be with her after graduation!"

Seeing Ye Qing's reaction, Lin Qianyu had already begun to believe him to some extent. For some reason, hearing Ye Qing's explanation brought her a sense of joy!

But she scoffed, "The school beauty likes you, and you're still putting on airs? You're probably just playing hard to get!"

"Bullshit!" Ye Qing said with a sneer, "She's not my type. Her breasts are too small, she's a total small-breasted bastard!"

"Hmm?" Upon hearing Ye Qing's words, Lin Qianyu subconsciously looked at her chest. Seeing her rather impressive chest, she felt a little more relaxed. Then, as if remembering something, a blush quickly crept onto her face.

"Did you go to Zhuo Fan to ask about me?" Ye Qing asked.

In fact, he wasn't too surprised by this. Since Zhuo Fan was his childhood friend and they grew up in the same village, it was normal for Lin Qianyu to ask him a few questions.

"Of course, I know all the stupid things you've done since you were a kid!" Lin Qianyu said, "Like catching birds and blowing up poop, you always get beaten black and blue by your dad!"

Ye Qing said nonchalantly, "You don't understand. Kids need to be a little mischievous. Being a little mischievous is what makes them smart!"

Seeing Ye Qing's expression, Lin Qianyu chuckled and said, "That's not being cheeky, that's being a jerk!"

She paused again before continuing, "Then why didn't you take the college entrance exam back then? And have you found your uncle and aunt? Where have you been for the past eight years? I investigated you before meeting you, but the investigation said you've been staying in the village the whole time!"

Ye Qing coughed and said, "I don't know where the two elders went, and I couldn't find them. I went up the mountain to learn martial arts for the past eight years."

"Go up the mountain to learn martial arts?" Lin Qianyu said with a dark expression, "If you don't want to say, fine, but please come up with a better reason!"

"Uh!" Ye Qing thought to himself, speechless, "They don't believe me when I tell the truth!"

He thought for a moment and said, "I went around looking for my parents. Wherever I went, I worked odd jobs like delivering food or doing manual labor to make a living. Once I had some money, I continued my search..."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Lin Qianyu!

"Damn it!" he cursed inwardly.

He noticed a hint of pity in Lin Qianyu's eyes; clearly, Lin Qianyu had already believed his later statement! Ye Qingren was completely numb.

"Your aunt and uncle will be alright," Lin Qianyu said. "You won't have to work so hard anymore. After I get the shares, I'll pay for your search!"

"Uh! That's not necessary!" Ye Qing said.

"Oh, right!" Lin Qianyu said, "I'll go with you to your class reunion this weekend!"

"What class reunion!" Ye Qing asked blankly.

“Zhuo Fan said that there are seven or eight of you from high school in Jiangcheng. Tomorrow is Saturday, and he invited everyone to get together. I agreed to go with him!” Lin Qianyu said.

"No, there's really no need. I haven't been in contact with them for eight or nine years!" Ye Qing said. "I'll probably not even be able to remember their names then, it would be too embarrassing!"

"But I've already agreed! You wouldn't expect me to break my promise in front of my subordinates, would you?" Lin Qianyu said.

Looking at Lin Qianyu's eyes, Ye Qing thought to himself speechlessly, "Fine, fine!"

"Don't worry!" Lin Qianyu said, "Bringing a girlfriend like me along will definitely make you look good!"

"Tell me about how your dad beat you when you were a kid!" Lin Qianyu asked.

After Ye Qing explained, her tone softened considerably.

Ye Qing chatted with her casually while eating several bowls of rice.

Wu Ma's cooking skills are quite good, and the taste is excellent.

After dinner, Lin Qianyu, unusually, didn't go back to her room but sat down on the sofa and turned on the TV.

Ye Qing greeted them and walked into the room.

What Ye Qing found strange was that not long after he returned to his room, Lin Qianyu also turned off the TV and went back to her own room!

……

Meanwhile, in Donghai City, Zhangjia!

Inside the pavilion, Zhang Tiancheng, looking rather grim, said, "Just now, Master Yang's men said he was arrested. They checked the license plate, and it's a fake! They haven't found him!"

"Yang Yun has been arrested?" Inside the pavilion, the man in the trench coat frowned.

“The person who made the move must be at least a top-tier expert!” Zhang Tiancheng said. “At this point in time, for such an expert to appear in Jiangcheng and take Yang Yun away, could it be related to what happened three years ago?”

"Even if Yang Yun confesses, it won't affect you!" the man in the trench coat said. "Just keep your mouth shut, and even with a tight net, they can't do anything to you!"

"Have you investigated the people around Lin Qianyu?" the man in the trench coat asked.

"I've investigated!" Zhang Tiancheng said. "Recently, everything around Lin Qianyu has been normal, except for the addition of that fiancé from the countryside!"

"The man who stabbed your son twice?" the man in the trench coat asked.

“Yes, apart from that, there have been no other changes!” Zhang Tiancheng said.

"Then let's take care of him first, and then see how things go," the man in the trench coat said calmly.
