Chapter 215: Departure! The Martial World Is All About Human Relationships!

~4 min read 766 words

Wasn't Yue Lingsu the one who invited him to dinner?

What was her purpose in treating him?

Who is that handsome man in a suit?

One question after another instantly appeared in Luo Chenyu's mind.

And at this moment.

The man in the suit was studying Luo Chenyu with curious eyes, filled with scrutiny and confusion.

"Lord Luo, I've heard so much about you!"

After a moment, the man in the suit stood up, smiling warmly, walked toward the antique-style door of the private room, extended his slender hand, and made a gesture as if to shake hands.

"Let me introduce myself—I'm Ling Zhe, a Tier 4 Great Swordsman, Level 67!"

Never strike a smiling face.

Luo Chenyu smiled faintly, extended his large hand, and lightly gripped it. "Mr. Ling, nice to meet you."

"Hahaha… you're nothing like the rumors."

Ling Zhe released Luo Chenyu's hand and laughed. "Please, come in—standing by the door like this, if Lingsu finds out, she'll scold me!"

Lingsu?

He calls her so familiarly…

Though Luo Chenyu was puzzled by their relationship, he didn't ask. Instead, he smiled and said, "What do the rumors say about me?"

"Ferocious, powerful, bandit-like, bloodthirsty…"

Each word rolled off Ling Zhe's tongue, and his lips curled upward unconsciously.

He fixed his gaze on Luo Chenyu's expression.

But Luo Chenyu showed no other expression—his smile grew even brighter.

"Hahaha, I never thought my image was so deeply ingrained."

Hearing these words,

Ling Zhe silently gave him a mental thumbs-up—such composure couldn't possibly belong to an 18-year-old rookie; he seemed more like a seasoned veteran who'd been hustling in society for years.

"Lord Luo, please sit. Can you tell me how you took down the Wang family?"

Luo Chenyu paused slightly, noticed the cigarette butts beside Ling Zhe's seat, then pulled out a cigarette and offered one to him, lit one for himself, and said with a mysterious tone.

"I've got a story. Do you have any liquor?"

Ling Zhe froze, cigarette in hand.

"Eight-Five-Zero."

Smoking, drinking…

You call this a high school student?

Why don't you get a perm too?

………………

"Oh? You two are having a good time!"

At exactly six o'clock, the private room door opened, and Yue Lingsu arrived on time, dressed in a red dress.

Seeing the two chatting and laughing, she beamed.

This situation had exceeded her expectations—after all, their personalities were vastly different.

"Sister Yue is right on time."

Luo Chenyu glanced at the clock, impressed by Yue Lingsu's punctuality.

By his nature, he was always early, never late.

Yue Lingsu walked over with graceful steps, sat down beside Luo Chenyu, and said, "When a sister goes out to meet you, she has to put on some makeup…"

"Sister Yue is naturally beautiful—makeup is just fluff."

At this moment, Luo Chenyu observed Ling Zhe's expression. It didn't change much, but a flicker of shock appeared in his eyes.

Luo Chenyu couldn't help but speculate about their relationship.

After all…

He had tested Ling Zhe earlier, but Ling Zhe had skillfully dodged the question.

Yue Lingsu covered her mouth and laughed lightly, clearly pleased with Luo Chenyu's compliment. "Your tongue is so sweet—I wonder how many little girls you'll fool someday."

"I'm just telling the truth. With my looks, it's already a miracle if anyone finds me attractive."

"Tsk tsk tsk…"

Yue Lingsu gave Luo Chenyu a strange look, made a peculiar sound, then pointed at Ling Zhe across from them. "You know Ling Zhe—he's my brother. He'll be in charge of everything at Longshan Trading House from now on."

"Your brother?"

Luo Chenyu stared at Ling Zhe, murmuring, "He doesn't look like it…"

"Same father, different mothers. Sister's leaving for Donghai City the day after tomorrow—today I'm introducing you two. After that…"

Yue Lingsu's words were cut off by Luo Chenyu.

"Sister Yue, I'm leaving for Donghai City tomorrow."

"Uh…" Yue Lingsu blinked, then laughed softly. "I really didn't need to do this."

"No, not at all—Brother Ling Zhe seems like a great guy. I'm glad to have met him."

Yet Yue Lingsu's next move left Luo Chenyu stunned.

She turned to Ling Zhe and said, "You're not needed here anymore. You know what to do, right?"

Ling Zhe, seeing her expression, shuddered instantly. "Got it!"

Then Ling Zhe stood up and said to Luo Chenyu, "Lord Luo, let's have dinner again next time—I'll take my leave now."

Luo Chenyu: "......"

Good lord!!

Yue Lingsu's authority was so high that even her own brother feared her like this.

And Lingzhe was a coward of the first order.

After Lingzhe left.
