Tomb Raiders: She Comes from the Ancient Martial Arts World

The Wang family had no guests, only family members.

Guests will be escorted far away and will never be able to set foot on the base.

But this rule has been broken today.

The Wang family members guarding the gate noticed that the patrol team that had passed by just five minutes earlier had quickly returned.

Their eyes met, and they both understood the reason.

Several guards silently turned their gaze away, but also secretly glanced at the person standing outside the gate.

The man was wearing a long white trench coat over a light blue thin shirt, the shirt hem tucked into matching light blue jeans, a white leather belt, and black ankle boots, with his hands in his pockets.

He stood tall and straight outside the gate, remaining calm and composed even when facing the guards' guns.

He had an air of aloofness, as if he had no idea what his opponent was.

One of the guards couldn't help but whisper to the squad leader, "Seriously, shouldn't we take her into custody first?"

The squad leader gave him a warning look: "Don't blame me for not warning you, this person is not simple."

The squad leader knew about the order Mr. Wang had given to the Wang family members who were on a mission, and had also heard snippets about Ling Yue from other places.

Putting everything else aside, just the fact that the other party was able to find the base on his own and dared to ask to see Mr. Wang made the squad leader not dare to underestimate him just because he seemed unremarkable at the moment.

The guard frowned, observed carefully again, but still couldn't figure it out.

This person who calls herself Ling Yue, apart from having a more refined demeanor and wearing brighter clothes, is just an ordinary mixed-race beauty no matter how you look at her.

However, the guard didn't say anything, but he thought to himself that Mr. Wang would definitely not let this person into the base.

However, the appearance of Wang Cen and Li Cu soon shattered the guard's guess.

"Miss Ling, welcome to the Wang family. Mr. Wang is already waiting for you." Wang Cen smiled politely, but his shrewd eyes were scrutinizing every part of Ling Yue.

The moment Li Cu saw Ling Yue, her eyes welled up with tears.

He himself couldn't explain why.

Perhaps it was because she hadn't seen her for so long, or perhaps it was because she saw Ling Yue in a place like the Wang family's house, that Li Cu felt a sense of security that she hadn't felt in a long time.

This made him rush forward a few steps, shouting to Ling Yue, "Ling Yue, is it really you? What are you doing here!" You shouldn't be here!

Ling Yue gave him a reassuring look, then turned to Wang Cen: "I apologize for coming uninvited, but I heard that Mr. Wang has been wanting to see me."

Wang Cen smiled and said, "Yes, please come with us."

He glanced at Li Cu, countless guesses racing through his mind, but said on the surface, "Li Cu, this is not the place to talk. Let's go back first."

Ling Yue ignored what Wang Cen was thinking. She first took Li Cu's hand, supporting it with one hand and taking his pulse with the other.

After a moment, Ling Yue frowned and said to Wang Cen, "It seems my little friend is having a tough time here. He has a lot of hidden injuries since I last saw him."

Wang Cen replied dismissively, "Li Cu has never trained before. It's inevitable that he will get injured when he first starts training."

It seems that Ling Yue really values ​​Li Cu, but it's unclear whether they can use Li Cu to win Ling Yue over.

In addition...

"Miss Ling, how did you find your way here?" Wang Cen asked casually, seemingly not taking the matter too seriously.

Ling Yue feigned mystery: "It's just a little tracking trick. I only need to spot one member of the Wang family who is destined to go home."

It seems like I answered, but it also seems like I didn't.

After Ling Yue finished taking her pulse and let go of her hand, Li Cu lowered her head and tentatively took her hand again.

Ling Yue only glanced at him without any resistance, so Li Cu secretly rejoiced and held his hand even tighter.

When the three arrived at the core area, they happened to run into Shen Qiong in the square where Li Cu had just been sitting.

Shen Qiong's gaze immediately fell on the hands that Li Cu and Ling Yue were holding. Li Cu felt uncomfortable for a moment, but quickly became relaxed.

After arriving at the Wang family, Shen Qiong did indeed help him a lot. In fact, it was because of Shen Qiong that Li Cu managed to reduce the ratio to 0, successfully enter the computing department, and obtain important intelligence.

And because of the gift from the other party, the exact coordinates of the Wang family's base were determined by a series of coincidences.

But it was during this time that Li Cu keenly noticed Shen Qiong's excessive help to him.

Despite Li Cu always calling her Shen Qiong, having watched the video and listened to the audio, Li Cu always understood that she was not the Shen Qiong who grew up with her.

Instead, it was a member of the Wang family who quietly took over Shen Qiong's identity.

Regardless of her reasons for helping him, Li Cu knew that it was definitely not out of affection for him personally.

Even though she always acted as if she was attracted to him and had developed romantic feelings for him.

Li Cu glanced at Ling Yue, secretly pleased with himself.

Don't let his lack of experience in a serious relationship fool you; he knows exactly what true love is.

I won't get scammed!

When Wang Cen saw Shen Qiong, his expression was also a little strange.

However, it wasn't just a superficial feeling of being surprised to witness a scene of two women vying for one man; it seemed to be directed at Shen Qiong himself.

Ling Yue noticed this and, in a flash, stopped abruptly, as if he had just recognized Shen Qiong: "Aren't you Shen Qiong, the little sister from across the street from Li Cu's family? Are you also a member of the Wang family?"

Shen Qiong lowered his head and softly hummed in agreement.

Before Ling Yue and Shen Qiong could say anything more, Wang Cen interrupted their conversation, which had just begun: "Miss Ling, Mr. Wang is waiting in the office building over there."

Ling Yue gave a cryptic smile, nodded slightly, and didn't linger.

This expression made Wang Cen's heart skip a beat; she felt as if the woman had figured something out.

Did she really discover something about Shen Qiong...?

When Ling Yue went into the office to see Mr. Wang, Li Cu was left outside.

Wang Can accompanied him.

It was less a matter of accompanying and more a matter of monitoring Li Cu.

Whether this also included a warning to Ling Yue that Li Cu, whom she cared about, was in their hands, or an implication that she shouldn't do anything unwise that could endanger Mr. Wang, is a matter of opinion.

In the end, the meeting consisted only of Mr. Wang, Ling Yue, and Wang Cen, who stood between Mr. Wang and Ling Yue from the moment he entered.

Whenever Ling Yue wants to take action against Mr. Wang, he can't avoid using Wang Cen as a human shield.

It is clear that Mr. Wang was still quite wary of Ling Yue's skills.

Ling Yue pretended not to notice, calmly surveyed the office, and then sat down in the chair opposite Mr. Wang's desk.

Mr. Wang was very gentle and had a kind smile, like a refined scholar: "Miss Ling, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Ling Yue, who was suddenly struck by a string of unfamiliar language, was speechless.

In the first second, Ling Yue was thinking.

Is this one of the languages ​​she knows?

In the second second, Ling Yue denied the thought he had in the first second.

In the third second, Ling Yue chose to let himself off the hook but made things difficult for others: "I don't understand."

Mr. Wang paused for a moment, then smiled and repeated, "Ms. Ling, it's a pleasure to meet you. I've heard so much about you, but I never imagined our first meeting would be here."

Ling Yue responded with a polite smile.

But his eyes and expression seemed to say: Please don't waste time talking, thank you.

A little polite, but not much.
