"Why are you looking for me today?" Ling Jue got straight to the point. She did not want to make a scene with him at all.
Feng Yulin's expression turned serious as well. He took a sip of red wine and said calmly, "Mingxi village is going to be demolished. It's going to be expropriated and turned into a resort. Everyone has to move out."
Ling Jue frowned. "When?"
He looked up at her. "Next month at the latest."
"So soon? Why so suddenly?"
"Because the higher-ups can't sit still anymore."
"Isn't this killing off Mingxi village?" Ling Jue frowned. Her bright face turned dark. She did not know much about politics, but she was certain.
Someone had reached out to a small village in another province. He must have had his own motives.
"Maybe it's because that person once lived here." Feng Yulin chuckled and looked at her mockingly. "You don't have to worry about that. After you're done dealing with Xia Qingsong, you can bring the old woman back to Yunhai province. You can do whatever you want in Yunhai province anyway."
"My grandmother still wants to come back to this place. When the time comes, there'll only be ruins. She won't be happy."
"..."
Feng Yulin did not say anything. He just sat there and looked out of the window.
He did not believe what he found out. Ling Jue's identity was much more complicated than he thought.
It was better not to say anything to this kid right now. He just needed to focus on finding the letter for himself.
As long as he got the letter, he would not have to deal with the higher-ups.
"Hello. Here are the dishes you ordered." The waiter brought the food up one after another.
Feng Yulin was a little surprised when he saw the lobsters and crabs. "You actually like these things?"
Ling Jue nodded and glanced at the starry-eyed Gu. Tang Yuan liked these things, but she did not like them at all!
Tang Yuan sat on the plate happily. 'Wow! So much delicious food! Wahaha!'
Moreover, it was the handsome young man's treat. It was really smart. It saved Lord Jue a lot of money.
La la la la~
"Lord Jue, I can finally eat freely now."
"You make it sound like I've never fed you enough." Ling Jue's eyes darkened. She picked it up and placed it on the top of the hot cup. "Do you want to go in and wash up before eating?"
"Waaa! Lord Jue! Help! No!" Tang Yuan immediately struggled, its whole body trembling. "Lord Jue! The handsome young man is looking at you. He must have noticed my presence. Let go of me, Lord Jue!"
Ling Jue looked up and saw Feng Yulin looking at her in surprise.
"What are you looking at?" Ling Jue snorted coldly and let go of Tang Yuan. Tang Yuan fell into the cup.
Feng Yulin noticed something. The water in the transparent cup had some ripples. He suppressed his thoughts and asked in a deep voice, "Are you sick?"
"Wah! Help! Someone help me!" Tang Yuan looked at its fur turning invisible and turned into a red ball. It wanted to cry but no tears came out.
It was so hot! It was going to turn into a boiled Tang Yuan.
Help!
The key was that it could not jump out by itself, because if its body touched the hot water, it would turn into a slippery ball.
"Lord Jue, I know I'm wrong. I won't talk about the two of you anymore. I won't talk about the handsome you man liking you anymore. I won't talk about how you can't bear to part with the handsome guy anymore. In the future..."
"Wah, wah! Please, Lord Jue! Let me out!" There would be no more delicious food later! Wah, wah!
"..."
Ling Jue looked at the struggling Tang Yuan in the cup. She raised her eyebrows and said calmly, "Swim for a while. Feng Yulin will be suspicious if I bring you out now."
