Villains: Starting with the Landlady

Uncle Nine glanced at him, assuming it was Wen Cai's voice that had disturbed him, and went back to sleep after extinguishing the candle.

But it was precisely because of this that Old Master Ren had the opportunity to escape later.

At the Ren family residence, Ling Yun held Ren Tingting and whispered to her.

Ling Yun had just conquered her, and with the ointment's miraculous effects, she felt no pain at all. Nestled in Ling Yun's arms, she felt an indescribable sweetness in her heart.

"Cousin, you'll marry me, right?"

Girls in this era are full of longing and yearning for love. This is because most girls are married off by their parents through matchmakers, marrying a man they may never have known before, and spending their lives with him.

Ren Tingting felt that being able to be with her cousin, whom she loved, was the happiest thing in the world.

"Yes, don't worry, Tingting."

Ling Yun hugged her and gently kissed her delicate nose: "Sleep well, it's getting late."

"Ah."

Ren Tingting nestled in his arms and closed her eyes. Exhausted, she quickly fell asleep, and Ling Yun, seeing her adorable sleeping face, also closed his eyes.

The next morning, Ling Yun had Ren Tingting get dressed and sneak into his room so that Master Ren wouldn't notice anything amiss.

However, looking at his increasingly beautiful daughter, Mr. Ren felt a little strange. Seeing that her walking posture was normal and there was nothing unusual about it, he did not ask any further questions.

After having breakfast with them, Ling Yun used the excuse of getting familiar with the town to go out and went to the carpenter's shop alone.

"Young Master Ling, your order is ready." The carpenter handed the items to Ling Yun.

Ren Tingting had already paid the full amount yesterday. After Ling Yun put the items into his spatial ring, he turned and left.

He had only taken a few steps when he saw Ren Tingting standing not far away, waiting for him with a slight smile on her face.

"Tingting, why are you here?"

"I knew you were here to pick up something." Ren Tingting stepped forward and took his arm, not caring what others might say about her. "Let's go, I know Renjia Town well, I'll show you around!"

Ling Yun readily agreed, and the two strolled around the morning market like any normal young couple.

"Hey, cousin, does this look good on me?"

Ren Tingting picked up a hair ornament, put it in her hair, and said to Ling Yun.

Ling Yun looked at her pretty face carefully, then nodded and said, "Beautiful!"

He didn't give a perfunctory answer; instead, he looked serious, which pleased Ren Tingting greatly. Without saying a word, she immediately took out her money and bought it. After all, Master Ren was the richest man in Renjia Town, and as his only daughter, she was very much loved by him, so he naturally had a lot of money.

Just as the two were chatting and laughing together, a commotion broke out not far away, and then the crowd dispersed to make way for them.

The men who walked over were dressed in green uniforms, carrying guns, and looked arrogant.

The leader, who wore glasses and was slightly overweight, immediately smiled when he saw Ren Tingting, but his face darkened when he saw Ling Yun standing next to her.

Chapter 196 Encountering a Ghost on a Night Road

Security captain Awei walked over, hands behind his back, and said to Ren Tingting, "Cousin!"

Although Awei and Ren Tingting are cousins, they are not as close as Ling Yun. He calls Master Ren "cousin-uncle".

"cousin."

Ren Tingting didn't like this cousin at all. After giving a curt reply, she took Ling Yun's hand and tried to leave.

"Hey, don't go!"

Awei reached out and stopped the two of them, looking at Ling Yun and saying, "Who are you, kid? You look familiar."

"I'm Ling Yun, don't you recognize me?"

"Ling Yun?"

Ah Wei took a closer look at Ling Yun, and after recognizing him, his face lit up with a smile: "So it's you, kid! No wonder my cousin was being so intimate with a strange man!"

"Is there anything else? I have to go."

"Don't rush, we haven't seen each other in a long time, why don't we go for tea and catch up?"

"Sorry, I'm in a hurry."

Lingyun wanted to leave, but Awei blocked his way, making it clear that he wanted to stop the two of them from having a secret rendezvous.

Ling Yun suddenly glanced behind him and called out, "Uncle!"

Awei's expression instantly turned fawning. He turned around, bowed, and without even looking at him, exclaimed, "Hello, Uncle!"

When he looked up, he found there was nothing in front of him, only a group of onlookers laughing at him, which made him lose face.

When he angrily turned around to confront Ling Yun, he discovered that Ling Yun and Ren Tingting had already left sometime earlier. He was so angry that he jumped up and down.

Two days passed leisurely like this, without anything unusual happening.

That evening, Lingyun went to the mortuary to check on Old Master Ren's coffin. Based on Xiaona's analysis, he deduced that it wouldn't be long before Old Master Ren broke free from his shackles.

Just as he was about to leave, Uncle Nine came out of the room and handed him an umbrella.

"It's going to rain tonight, you'd better bring it with you just in case."

"Thank you, Uncle Jiu."

After these two days of communication, Uncle Nine's impression of him improved more and more. Before leaving, he patted him on the shoulder and whispered in his ear.

"Lingyun, I can see that you are destined for romantic entanglements, but they are sinister ones. You must be careful."

"I see."

Ling Yun didn't take it seriously. Seeing his skeptical look, Uncle Jiu sighed slightly, thinking that people who had returned from abroad had received different educations and wouldn't believe in ghosts until they saw them with their own eyes.

Ling Yun wasn't just skeptical; he was quite convinced that Dong Xiaoyu would be looking for him soon.

He had walked halfway when, just as he was about to emerge from a grove of trees, a torrential downpour suddenly began.

Ling Yun immediately opened his umbrella, lowered his head, and walked quickly, avoiding the mud and pebbles on the ground.

As he ventured deeper into the area, he heard a woman's voice coming from not far away. The voice grew closer, and soon a woman in a white dress came into Ling Yun's view.

The dress she was wearing was very thin, and under the cover of rain, it became almost transparent.

Ling Yun stopped and carefully examined the woman. Upon seeing him, the woman was initially delighted, but then gave him a pitiful look and said, "Young master, may I borrow your umbrella to shield me from the rain?"

Her alluring face and beautiful figure appeared even more seductive in the heavy rain. A normal man would probably have been captivated by her beauty long ago, but Ling Yun recognized her at a glance as the female ghost Dong Xiaoyu and boldly walked over.

He originally intended to use half of the umbrella to shield her from the rain, but as soon as she approached, golden light suddenly emanated from inside the umbrella, and Dong Xiaoyu screamed and flew backward.

"My benefactor, what...what did you stick under your umbrella?"

Ling Yun was also taken aback. He looked up and found that there was actually a talisman stuck inside the umbrella!

Uncle Nine, how much do you not trust me...?

Ling Yun was speechless. He tore off the talisman, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it into the pond before walking back towards Dong Xiaoyu.

Although the female ghost was frightened, she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that everything was alright. She instinctively pressed herself against Ling Yun's chest and said softly, "Thank you, benefactor."

"This rain isn't going to stop anytime soon." Ling Yun put his arm around her voluptuous waist, feeling her impressive figure. "Let me take you home. Which direction do you live in?"

“My benefactor is just ahead.”

Following her directions, Ling Yun put his arm around Dong Xiaoyu and walked forward, exchanging names along the way.

After arriving at a secluded courtyard, Lingyun followed her to the eaves and put away the umbrella.

The young man used his X-ray vision to see that this was not an antique mansion at all, but clearly a trick of the female ghost messenger. It was just a dilapidated courtyard!

"Now that you're home, I should go."

"My benefactor, please wait!"

Dong Xiaoyu called out to him, and after the young man turned around, she immediately untied her silk robes.

“My benefactor, I have nothing to repay you with, except this slender figure. Please do not find it offensive.”

She used her charm on Ling Yun, but the young man remained unmoved, only a faint smile on his lips.

Dong Xiaoyu was stunned. She tried again, but the young man walked up to her with amusement and grabbed her softness.

"Not bad, a ghost even has a physical presence, so the experience there must be pretty good, right?"

"My benefactor, what... what are you saying?" Dong Xiaoyu feigned confusion.

"Sorry, I have a very good memory. I just offered incense for you a few days ago. Don't you remember?"

Dong Xiaoyu's pupils widened. Just as she was about to say something, Ling Yun picked her up by the waist and carried her into the house.

..............................

..............................

..............................

The rain stopped, and the light outside brightened.

Ling Yun removed Dong Xiaoyu's arms and legs from his body, got dressed, and prepared to go out.

"Young Master Ling, are you leaving?"

"Well, it's dawn, I should go back now so my family won't worry."

Dong Xiaoyu seemed even more beautiful and charming than before. Her languid demeanor almost made Ling Yun unable to resist having sex with her again.

"Then, will you still come here often?"

"Yes, there will be plenty of time later. I'll deal with the recent troubles first."

Ling Yun picked up the umbrella, and Dong Xiaoyu, wearing a coat, saw him to the door.

"Don't you dare go and seduce anyone else! If I find out, I'll smash your grave to pieces!"

Dong Xiaoyu chuckled, leaning against Ling Yun's chest, her eyes alluring as she said, "No, I will always be my benefactor's person."

"That's good."

Ling Yun was a little worried that his "Beauty Recognizes Master" spell would be useless against ghosts, but it seemed to be working quite well for now. He kissed her and then left with his umbrella.

They say you'll encounter ghosts when walking at night, but he not only encountered a ghost, he also fucking slept with one!

Chapter 197 Blood of a Close Family

The next morning, Ling Yun woke up in his room, stretched, and then there was a knock on the door.

He opened the door and saw Ren Tingting looking unhappy.

"What's wrong? Who bullied our Tingting?"

"Cousin, where did you go last night?"

Ren Tingting threw herself into his arms. These past few days, Mr. Ren had been home, so he had guessed a thing or two about their little secret, and there was nothing to hide.

"I stayed at Uncle Jiu's place a little longer last night. Then it started raining heavily, and I had to wait for a while to avoid the rain."

He picked up the umbrella leaning against the wall: "Here, I need to give this umbrella to someone later."

"Ok."

Ren Tingting knew that he had been going to the mortuary these past few days, but she only thought he was concerned about Old Master Ren's affairs. She didn't expect there to be so much more to it.

Ling Yun was used to being a playboy, so he could lie without batting an eye. He hugged Ren Tingting and kissed her several times until she smiled again before the two of them left.

After breakfast, the two went to the mortuary hand in hand. Although Ren Tingting was somewhat averse to such places, she didn't want to go another day without seeing Ling Yun, so she followed them.

Upon arriving at the mortuary, Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai were dozing off. They immediately stood up when they saw them enter.

"Lingyun, that Animal Chess game you brought last time was quite interesting!"

Qiu Sheng punched him in the chest and said with a grin.

In just a few days, Ling Yun only showed off a few skills, but he managed to subdue Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai, two young men who weren't very bright. He also showed them some novel gadgets from his spatial ring.

Although Uncle Nine was worried that his two apprentices would become obsessed with playing around, it was still better than giving him another beating, so he simply controlled their playtime.

"Uncle Nine!"

Uncle Nine happened to walk over and nodded after hearing Ling Yun call him.

"Thank you for the umbrella, Uncle Jiu. Otherwise, I'm afraid I would have really gotten soaked."
