Chapter 96: A Cliché Plot

Student Zhuge Ni pulled Ye Lin along, wanting to head in the direction of home.

Student Zhuge Student Zhuge Qianxing kept telling her that Ye Lin and Ling Ye were the same person, and today she was going to prove to Student Zhuge Student Zhuge Qianxing that Ye Lin and Ling Ye were two different people!

Although Ling Ye had an ordinary appearance and was far less handsome than Ye Lin's face, in Student Zhuge Ni's eyes, Ling Ye was far more pleasing to the eye than Ye Lin.

Moreover, Ling Ye was far more outstanding than Ye Lin! He could produce Dragon-Patterned Mineral Gold and a legendary-grade skill scroll the moment he made a move; just based on these, Ye Lin couldn't even catch up to him!

Ye Lin was also caught between laughter and tears at this moment. Asking him to prove that Ling Ye was more outstanding than Ye Lin? Wouldn't that just be me winning against myself?

"You really have the wrong person; I am not some Ling Ye." Ye Lin pulled his hand out of Student Zhuge Ni's grasp.

"Impossible! Don't try to lie to me; I will never forget your silhouette!" Student Zhuge Ni said with absolute certainty.

"I said, you have the wrong person." Ye Lin was somewhat speechless.

"Then you tell me yourself, who exactly are you?"

Facing the aggressive Student Zhuge Ni, Ye Lin finally lost his patience completely.

"Unreasonable."

He turned and walked away, too lazy to keep arguing with Student Zhuge Ni.

Once he turned into a place with fewer people, he would directly activate Dance of the Instant and make a clean getaway; he didn't believe Student Zhuge Ni could still catch up to him.

"Stop right there, Ling Ye! I really don't have any malicious intent!" Student Zhuge Ni hurriedly chased after Ye Lin. Seeing that Ye Lin ignored her completely, she bit her red lips in frustration and then dialed a phone number.

Seeing Ye Lin and Student Zhuge Ni tugging at each other, those who had been following Ye Lin with ulterior motives could only abandon the idea of killing him to seize his treasures.

Although they didn't know Ye Lin's identity, they were very clear about Student Zhuge Ni's identity.

That was Mr. Student Zhuge's only daughter; in Qingcheng, unless someone had lost their mind, who would dare to touch Mr. Student Zhuge's daughter?

Along the way, Ye Lin specifically turned into small alleys, with Student Zhuge Ni following closely behind him.

Soon, the two turned into a sparsely populated area. Just as Ye Lin was preparing to activate Dance of the Instant to shake off Student Zhuge Ni, he saw two investigators appear directly in front of him!

"I didn't expect that the legendary Ling Ye, who killed the King of the Underground, Wang Kensen, would actually have such an unremarkable appearance. Truly, one cannot judge a book by its cover."

Huang Huang Litian stared fixedly at Ye Lin's face, unable to help but sigh.

And his apprentice, Xu Xiu, was extremely nervous, looking as if he were ready for a major battle; after all, the guy in front of them was the terrifying murderer who killed Wang Kensen!

Ye Lin frowned and glanced at Student Zhuge Ni; it was obvious that these two investigators, Huang Huang Litian and the other, had been brought here by Student Zhuge Ni.

Seeing Ye Lin's cold gaze, Student Zhuge Ni's heart trembled, and she hurriedly explained.

"Ling Ye, don't misunderstand. Uncle Huang and the others aren't here to arrest you. You kept refusing to listen to me, so I had no choice but to call Uncle Huang and the others over."

"I really don't have any malicious intent. I just want you to come home with me and meet my father; he has been deceived by a very bad person."

"If you have any requests, you can tell me, and I will definitely do my best to satisfy you!"

Student Zhuge Ni said these words very sincerely, fearing that Ye Lin would refuse.

She looked at Ye Lin with eager eyes, just like a little girl begging her father to take her to an amusement park, appearing somewhat aggrieved.

"Let's go."

Ye Lin spoke coldly. He had a massive headache; this crazy woman Student Zhuge Ni was stubborn to the extreme. He suspected that if he continued to refuse her, she might even call Student Zhuge Student Zhuge Qianxing over on the spot.

Since that was the case, he might as well just go and see Student Zhuge Student Zhuge Qianxing with her; anyway, Student Zhuge Student Zhuge Qianxing already knew the secret that he was Ling Ye.

"Okay!"

Seeing Ye Lin agree, Student Zhuge Ni's beautiful eyes instantly lit up.

"Uncle Huang, Brother Xu, I'm sorry, I troubled you to make this trip." Student Zhuge Ni apologized to Huang Huang Litian and the other man with embarrassment.

"It's fine. We also wanted to see if the person who could kill Wang Kensen really had three heads and six arms." Huang Huang Litian looked at Ye Lin coldly.

He had been on the verge of uncovering the truth about Wang Kensen's case, but then his superiors suddenly forced the case to be closed. This matter had always been a knot in Huang Huang Litian's heart.

Seeing that Ye Lin and Student Zhuge Ni had walked far away, Xu Xiu, who was on the side, finally spoke.

"Master, it seems that Ling Ye and Ye Lin are indeed two different people."

"Not necessarily. Perhaps he used some kind of prop that can change one's appearance. Forget it, the case is closed, so there's no point in dwelling on this."

Huang Huang Litian shook his head with a bitter smile. He was just a small investigator; even if he had feelings about it, he could only comply with the decision of his superiors.

"You mean... Ye Lin used a Phantom Mask to change into another person's appearance to sell skill scrolls and equipment at the Class Advancement Guild, and then he just happened to run into Ni Ni, was mistaken for Ling Ye by her, and is now being dragged here?"

Even with Student Zhuge Student Zhuge Qianxing's temperament, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded when he heard this news. Could such a cliché plot really happen?

"Yes, Mr. Student Zhuge, I saw it with my own eyes; how could it be fake? That kid Ye Lin originally wanted to run, but he was blocked by the investigators the Young Lady called, which is why he didn't manage to escape," said Guo Qin.

Student Zhuge Student Zhuge Qianxing rubbed his temples.

"What kind of mess is this... Wait, you said he appeared in front of the investigators?"

"Yes." Guo Qin nodded.

"Then perhaps... this might actually be a good thing." Student Zhuge Student Zhuge Qianxing revealed a meaningful smile.

At this moment, Student Zhuge Ni excitedly brought Ye Lin home and pushed the front door open with a bang.

"Dad! Father! Come out quickly! Look who I've brought back!" Student Zhuge Ni shouted loudly as soon as she entered the courtyard.

"What's wrong, Ni Ni? What are you so happy about?"

Student Zhuge Student Zhuge Qianxing walked out, pretending he didn't know anything. When Ye Lin saw Student Zhuge Student Zhuge Qianxing and was about to remove his Phantom Mask to reveal his identity, he was stopped by a look from Student Zhuge Student Zhuge Qianxing.

Student Zhuge Ni ran over very happily, shaking Student Zhuge Student Zhuge Qianxing's arm as she spoke.

"Dad! This is Ling Ye! I told you long ago that Ling Ye is countless times more outstanding than that cowardly Ye Lin! Ye Lin isn't even fit to tie his shoes! You just wouldn't believe me! And you even insisted that Ye Lin and Ling Ye were the same person!"

"Look, now I've brought him back to you! Let me tell you, Ling Ye was so impressive at the Class Advancement Guild today! He brought out over a dozen pieces of high-level equipment all by himself, and he also brought out Dragon-Patterned Mineral Gold and a legendary-grade skill scroll!"

"You didn't see how shocked the others were when they looked at him. At that time, Ling Ye was the focus of the crowd, the star surrounded by the moon, the center of everyone's attention..."

Student Zhuge Ni spoke incessantly as if she had opened a floodgate, feeling extremely happy, with a very bright smile on her face.

Guo Qin nodded from the side and said with great emotion: "The Young Lady hasn't smiled like this for a long time."

Student Zhuge Ni excitedly explained to Student Zhuge Student Zhuge Qianxing how outstanding Ye Lin was, praising him to the high heavens, to the point where Ye Lin himself felt a bit embarrassed.

Afterward, Student Zhuge Ni changed the subject and said with a look of anticipation.

"Dad! If you really want to choose an apprentice, why don't you kick that Ye Lin out and take Ling Ye under your wing! Ling Ye is a hundred times stronger than that cowardly Ye Lin! Really, I'm not lying to you!"
