Day n of not wanting to be a kept man's canary

Hearing her father's name spoken by Leng Xingchun, Mu Yanxin felt as if the sky was about to fall. Did she know her father?

She instinctively lowered her head. "We probably met somewhere before you went abroad!"

In the same city, this possibility is not impossible. It's impossible to find two people who look exactly alike, but it's not difficult to find people who are similar.

Leng Xingchun didn't seem to think much of it, and nodded with a smile, "Yes, maybe it's because we've met before, or maybe it's because I like you so much that I feel like we've known each other forever!"

"None of that matters. What matters is that we will be a family from now on!"

"Don't you think so, Second Brother?"

Leng Changqing has seemed absent-minded since yesterday. "Huh?"

She laughed heartily, but upon closer inspection, a subtle, almost imperceptible searching lurked in the corners of her eyes.

Their hands were still clasped together, frozen in mid-air, and Mu Yanxin was at a loss for what to say.

Leng Xingchun's gaze went straight past her, looking behind her, and she called out lightly.

"Fourth brother!"

Mu Yanxin subconsciously turned around, and her gaze met Leng Tingye's as he stepped into the doorway.

Leng Xingchun let go of his hand and ran over to hug the man.

Leng Tingye pressed his index finger against her forehead, preventing her from getting close, and her outstretched hands froze in mid-air.

This was undoubtedly like offering a warm welcome only to be met with a cold shoulder. Leng Xingchun pouted and said angrily, "Fourth brother, you're really going too far!"

"Oh~" Leng Tingye said casually, "Where did I go too far?"

"I haven't been home for four years, and they didn't even give me a hug. How stingy!"

"I don't like being hugged by men!"

After speaking, he glanced at Mu Yanxin, a wicked smile curving his lips, which made Mu Yanxin's heart tighten and she quickly looked away.

He sidestepped Leng Xingchun and strode inside!

Leng Xingchun realized what was happening and shouted at the back of his head, "Am I a girl? I'm your sister!"

Leng Tingye seemed not to hear him and walked inside.

As the man approached her step by step, Mu Yanxin panicked. What was he going to do?

He was positioned on the other side, yet he walked towards her. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he wouldn't do anything out of line, would he?

She turned pale with fright, kept trying to signal with her eyes, but was afraid of being seen, so she had to keep smiling.

"Little sister-in-law!"

Mu Yanxin's heart nearly jumped out of her throat when she was called "sister-in-law".

As the two drew closer and closer, he showed no sign of stopping.

In front of so many people, he's not really going to do anything outrageous, is he?

Despite her nervousness, Mu Yanxin kindly reminded him, "Master Ye! Your seat is over there!"

The implication is clear: Don't come any closer!

Having received the hint, Leng Tingye smiled and said, "Oh! Wrong way!"

As if nothing had happened, he turned around and walked in another direction!

Is he deliberately teasing her?

Mu Yanxin was quite frightened; her straight legs under her skirt trembled, and she almost couldn't stand up.

Leng Tingye sat down, and the cheerful atmosphere suddenly quieted down. No one dared to speak casually, and they just kept their heads down and ate their food!

Fearing they might say something they shouldn't, everyone tried to shut themselves up with food, so the meal was finished very quickly.

After the meal, Grandpa Leng left early, probably because he felt that the younger generation would be too reserved.

Subsequently, Leng Changlin excused himself from feeling unwell, and Tang Yu accompanied him away.

Others also considered leaving, but Leng Tingye remained steadfast, making it difficult for them to leave easily.

Meanwhile, the servants had already cleared the table and replaced it with a fruit platter, and brewed some fine tea.

Leng Tingye's face was frighteningly dark, especially during the meal, when he kept staring at Leng Changlin.

No one dared to speak. As if they had planned it together, they buried their heads in eating melon seeds or drinking tea.

Suddenly, Leng Tingye stood up from his seat with a whoosh, his eyes filled with ferocity, bloodlust, and cruelty.

Everyone was startled and stared at him in surprise, wondering who had angered this man!

The chair made of high-quality Phoebe zhennan wood was kicked out, and he strode away with long legs.

Leng Xingchun asked, "Fourth brother, where are you going?"

"kill!"

Leng Xingchun was quite surprised and laughed, "Fourth Brother, you're joking again!"

Leng Tingye was always unconventional in his speech, so everyone took it as just random nonsense and didn't take it seriously, continuing to drink tea and chat.

After he left, everyone was able to speak freely, and the atmosphere became lively again.

East Garden.

Leng Tingye kicked the door open with a piercing sound.

Hearing the commotion, Tang Yu hurriedly ran out to check, but before she could even leave the hall, she bumped into Leng Tingye, who was coming in.

The next second, a gun was already pointed at his forehead.

Tang Yu: "Fourth brother, what are you doing?"

"Enough with the nonsense, where's Leng Changlin?"

Tang Yu looked terrified, but she didn't reveal Leng Changlin's meaning. "Fourth brother, put the gun down first, then we'll talk!"

Clearly, Leng Tingye had no intention of discussing it with her. "I don't want to say it a second time!"

He pulled the trigger, and Tang Yu felt a sharp pain on her scalp from the gun barrel, but her eyes remained as firm as ever, showing no intention of saying anything.

"Well done, then I guess you'll have to die in his place first!"

Over in the banquet hall, Leng Xingchun was telling all sorts of interesting stories from abroad, and everyone was getting more and more excited as they talked.

When Feng Yaqin saw that there was no more tea, she saw this as an opportunity for her daughter-in-law to shine.

"Yanxin, go and refill the tea."

Adding tea is not just about adding water; it means discarding all the original tea and brewing a fresh batch.

In wealthy families, different teas require different teaware, which means that Mu Yanxin has to change all her teaware to something else.

Tang Yu closed her eyes, her expression one of willing acceptance of death.

"and many more!"

The voice came from behind the screen, and two seconds later, Leng Changlin came out.

Seeing this, Leng Changlin remained calm and composed, his expression unchanged.

If this were an ordinary person, they would have been completely bewildered.

"My fourth brother has arrived. It is my fault for not welcoming him properly."

His tone was so casual, as if he hadn't even seen his wife being held at gunpoint!

Leng Tingye tilted his head and smiled, "Good brother, you've really gone to great lengths to take care of your brother's life and death!"

As he spoke, he moved the gun away from the woman's head. The next second, a bullet struck the man's leg, splattering blood everywhere!

The man lost the support of one leg and fell to the ground.

"what!"

Tang Yu screamed, covered her mouth with one hand, ran over and knelt down beside Leng Changlin's body with a thud, looking at his legs that were gushing blood.

My hands were trembling, and I didn't know what to do.

Her eyes were filled with hatred as she angrily said, "Leng Tingye, are you crazy? He's your older brother!"

Leng Tingye sneered as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world. His laughter was full of mockery. He looked at Leng Changlin's pained and twisted expression and said, "Tit for tat, is that right, big brother?"
