Little Tang was furious. If the young mistress had not let this youth get into the car, Little Tang would have attacked him.
“Then, my thanks to your young mistress. As expected, you all both good people.” Mo Wen laughed. He walked up to the car very naturally, as though he was getting into his own car. With a clunk, he opened the car door.
“Hey, wait a minute. Sit in the front. You should not sit in the back.” Little Tang was slightly stunned. She had not expected that this Eighth Grader Syndrome youth would act so naturally. Without her telling him to do anything, he got into the back of the car where the young mistress was. However, Mo Wen seemed to have not heard her at all. He bent down and entered the back of the car.
“You…” Little Tang’s expression went cold. She had not expected that this youth would be so rude, entering the young mistress’s area without permission.
“Little Tang, it’s alright. Take him into the city and then drop him off.” The voice of the young mistress sounded from inside the car.
“Alright.” Little Tang sighed helplessly. She had not expected that the young mistress would forgive this youth’s rude actions once again. Since when had the young mistress been so amicable?
In the back of the car,, there sat a young maiden in a green dress. She had big eyes and a small mouth. Her facial features were exquisite and she had an aura of elegance that seemed to emanate from her very bones. She wore a lace pleated dress made of high-end textiles. It displayed the young maiden’s figure and elegance vividly.
After Mo Wen got into the car, the young maiden in the green dress did not look at him at all, seemingly taking him to be a ma.s.s of air. Instead, Mo Wen was the one who stared at her face for a long while.
“Are you done looking?” the young maiden in the green dress said. Even when she was talking to Mo Wen, her eyes were still looking ahead.
“Nope. Haven’t you heard of eye candy?” Mo Wen said with a smile.
“You sure are daring. No one has dared to speak to me like that in a long time.” The young maiden in the green dress looked at Mo Wen with a look of novelty in her eyes. She seemed to find his manner of speech refres.h.i.+ng. She did not seem to be disgusted or angry.
The expression of Little Tang who was driving turned cold. This Eighth Grader Syndrome youth was too daring. He actually dared to tease the young mistress the moment he got into the car. Did he not know who was sitting in front of him? If the young mistress was not benevolent, she would have killed this ruffian.
“Would you like a drink?” the young maiden in the green dress asked Mo Wen.. A fridge opened from the hidden compartment between the two of them. There was an a.s.sortment of beverages and alcohol inside.
“Give me a cup of red wine then.” Mo Wen took out a gla.s.s from the sterilizer and placed it in front of the young maiden in the green dress.
The young maiden in the green dress was slightly stunned. She looked at Mo Wen with a strange look and said, “You are asking me to pour you wine?”
Little Tang nearly exploded in rage in the driver’s seat. She should not have let this youth into the car. He obviously did not know how to behave.
“What’s wrong? You have a guest and you won’t even offer a gla.s.s of wine?” Mo Wen said plainly.
“I have not entertained many guests like you.” The young maiden in the green dress smiled. She took out a bottle of red wine produced from Chateau Lafite and poured Mo Wen a gla.s.s.
Mo Wen drank the wine in one long gulp. He was like Pigsy eating the ginseng fruit. He hadn’t even tasted the wine as the whole gla.s.s of wine went straight down his throat.
Little Tang in the driver’s cabin was so angry that she had the urge to hit the steering wheel. The young mistress’ collection of wine had no cheap stock. He had actually ruined such goods.
“Young miss, you are ill, and quite seriously,” Mo Wen said out of nowhere as he smacked his lips, seemingly enjoying the aftertaste of the wine in his mouth. He looked at young maiden in the green dress.
“You are the one who is ill. Your whole family is ill. Are you looking to die?” Little Tang finally could not resist any longer. She turned around and stared at Mo Wen. If she was not driving along a highway, she would have stopped the car and dragged this Eighth Grader Syndrome youth out of the car to beat him up. She had never met a person that she wanted to hit more.
“Are you trying to provoke me?” For the first time, the gaze of the young maiden in the green dress came to rest on Mo Wen’s face. Her eyes were surprisingly calm, but deep within her pupils, there was an unusual undertone.
“I am just speaking honestly.” Mo Wen shrugged.
“Then, you wish to say that you can treat my illness?” The young maiden in the green dress giggled. She raised a long, slender hand and slowly touched her face. If one looked closely, one would notice that her face was rather pale and there was a faint sickly transparency to it.
“You have guessed correctly. I might just be able to treat your illness. Of course, I will not treat someone’s illness for no reason. I will only do it because you were willing to give me a lift. It is said that it is hard to determine fate,” Mo Wen said, shrugging his shoulders.
“Youths nowadays rarely have audacity like yours. Those that would dare to speak in such a manner before me are even rarer.”
The young maiden in the green dress looked intently at Mo Wen. Then, she slowly closed her eyes, ignoring him completely. She clearly did not believe that Mo Wen could treat her body’s stubborn illness. Since she was young, no one had been able to treat her illness. It did not matter how far she went or how many famous doctors and experts she had asked, but it was hopeless. She had been forced to expect that she had been born with an incurable and untreatable disease.
Mo Wen also did not say anymore. Since this young lady did not believe him, then he would make no further offer to treat her. The reason why he had stopped this car was that he could sense that the owner of this car had a special body and had stopped the car out of curiosity. He had already been able to confirm the illness that the young lady was suffering from.
In the back of the car, it suddenly fell silent. When Little Tang saw that Mo Wen did not have any more outrageous actions, she snorted coldy and concentrated on driving the car. The speed of the car was much faster than before. She seemed to be hoping to reach the city as soon as possible and chase Mo Wen out of the car.
The phone in the car rang.
“Young mistress, the CEO of the Blue Ocean Group, Lin Qing has arranged a banquet in the Blue Ocean Plaza. She is asking us to head directly to the hotel over there,” Little Tang said after hanging up.
“Ok, let’s go straight to the Blue Ocean Hotel.” The young maiden in the green dress nodded her head. Her eyes were half-closed, and her body emanated a relaxed aura.
Blue Ocean Group! Lin Qing?
Mo Wen blinked his eyes. He had not expected that the woman in the car was actually heading over to attend Lin Qing’s banquet.
“Why don’t you take me along? I have not eaten my lunch yet,” Mo Wen said with a grin.
“Once we are in the city, you can quickly get out of the car,” Little Tang rolled her eyes at Mo Wen. This fellow actually wanted to get a meal out of them. Who did he think he was?
“Why are you going to see Lin Qing? Rumor has it that Lin Qing is the CEO of the Blue Ocean Group and is also a great beauty,” Mo Wen asked curiously.
“There are two types of people who visit Lin Qing. One talks business and the other talks of courts.h.i.+p. Which type do you think we are?” the young maiden in the green dress asked.
Lin Qing was a superwoman in the world of business. She held a huge empire in her hands. However, if they were an ordinary business group, they would not be qualified to seek her out personally to talk business.
“I feel that a few women getting together can talk about life, fas.h.i.+on, and their husbands…” Mo Wen laughed. He had not finished speaking when his facial expression suddenly changed. His eyebrows were raised slightly.
A huge rumble sounded. The ground suddenly sank, and a hole more than a hundred meters wide appeared. Right now, the car was cruising over a highway carried on a viaduct. When the ground gave way, the car immediately fell off the viaduct. Right now, they were still in the outskirts of the city. Below them were mountain ranges and rivers. If an ordinary person encountered such an incident, they would have certainly died in the car crash.
Little Tang was shocked and almost began to scream. She had not expected that such an incident would occur without any warning. With her ability, if something happened to the ground, it was impossible for her not to have detected it. It was no ordinary traffic incident! In an instant, Little Tang was certain.
At the same time, the young maiden in the green dress suddenly opened her eyes. A bright light flashed in them as she looked outside the car. Right now, the car was free-falling. In a short while, they would crash and die, but she was surprisingly calm. Little Tang in the driver’s seat was also very calm, seemingly without any look of fear.
The young maiden in the green dress slowly raised her hand. A beam of blue light flashed and a chill filled the cabin. The next moment, the car immediately leveled itself. Although it was still falling in the air, the danger seemed to have pa.s.sed.
Mo Wen looked at the two of them with an expression of understanding, playing with the gla.s.s in his hand. Before he had got into the car, he already knew that the two of them were ancient martial art pract.i.tioners. Otherwise, he would not have stopped their car. It was just that he had not expected that after just a short while, they would encounter an incident. As expected, many things happened to ancient martial art pract.i.tioners.
A strange power suddenly came from the ravine. It was as though a huge hand had caught the car. With a furious tug, the car flew towards a corner of the ravine.
The car landed on the ground. Around it was a stone forest. The ground was covered with stones of various sizes. On top of a few boulders were dozens of men in black. They wrapped themselves tightly in their clothing and were looking at the car with cold gazes.
“Who are you? I don’t think I have offended you all.” The young maiden in the green dress got out of the car. She looked at the men in black, somewhat unsure as to whether or not they were her enemies. There were many grudges in the ancient martial arts world. Such incidents were common, but usually one would recognize their own enemies. But be it from their appearances or the aura from their bodies, she felt this group was alien to her. She did not think she had met them before.
“You are called w.a.n.g Qinghan?” The leader of the men in black asked coldly.
Mo Wen followed her and got out of the car. He looked at the men in black. The corners of his mouth unknowingly curled into a playful smile.
The Ghost Lair!
From the aura emanating from their bodies, he could immediately determine who these people were. He had encountered the Ghost Lair once again.
“Yes,” w.a.n.g Qinghan said expressionlessly. As expected, these people were looking for her.
“The target has appeared. Go, capture her.”
The leader of the men in black waved his hand. A frightening aura suddenly surged from his body. He was actually at the pinnacle of the Embryonic Breathing Realm. The surrounding men in black also did not have low cultivation. They completely sealed off the surrounding area; even a fly could not get out.
