Chapter 590: Chapter 590: Birthday

Ling Feng’s brows furrowed. "What do you mean? Are you suggesting something is being suppressed under Wolong Mountain?"

Chu Ziling spoke indifferently, "Do you know the origin of the name Wolong Mountain?"

Ling Feng, somewhat puzzled, replied, "Does that have anything to do with this matter?"

"Of course, it does!" Chu Ziling said, "Through my investigation, I’ve found that Wolong Mountain stems from an ancient legend. It’s said that long ago, the Divine Dragon fought a great battle against an evil demon. In the end, the Divine Dragon defeated this demon, but to prevent it from wreaking havoc again, it transformed its own body into a great mountain to suppress the demon. This mountain became what we now call Wolong Mountain!"

Ling Feng felt speechless, "How is that possible..."

Before he could finish speaking, a serious expression crossed Ling Feng’s face. Had he not met Ao Yun before, Ling Feng would never have believed in such so-called legends and myths, but now... With Ao Yun, a true Divine Dragon, in front of him, how could he assert that those previous tales were certainly false?

After Chu Ziling’s explanation, Ling Feng also noticed that Wolong Mountain seemed to be veiled in a thin mist, concealing the truth within.

"Do you have any more evidence? Or is it just based on some vague legend?" Ling Feng looked at Chu Ziling, "Your deduction can’t convince me!"

Chu Ziling laughed, rather cavalierly speaking, "I’m just sharing everything I know and my speculations. Whether you believe it or not is beyond my control!"

Ling Feng paused, taken aback: "That’s it? Aren’t you being too dismissive?"

Chu Ziling chuckled, "Please, I’m just an ordinary woman, after all. Isn’t what I told you already enough? If you want to know more... then you’ll have to become my true boyfriend first!"

"Then forget it!" Ling Feng said decisively, "But still, thank you. Your information is very useful to me!"

As he spoke, Ling Feng stood up, "If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going now!"

After saying this, Ling Feng didn’t wait for Chu Ziling to continue speaking and pushed the door open to leave.

"What a proud little boy!" Chu Ziling licked her lips, then picked up the half cup of coffee Ling Feng had drunk, sipped it gently, and a mischievous smile spread across her face, "I’m finding you more and more interesting!"

...

What is being suppressed under Wolong Mountain? Ling Feng felt a heaviness in his heart. If that were true, then the person who would know most about this would definitely be Ao Yun! But what Ling Feng couldn’t understand was why Ao Yun had never mentioned any of this to him. Was there some secret involved?

"Ao Yun... what exactly are you plotting?" Ling Feng felt irritated. Although he had been very wary of Ao Yun at first, as they interacted more, Ling Feng had gradually come to trust Ao Yun a little.

If Ao Yun had approached him with some malicious intent, even if Ao Yun was the Divine Dragon from Huaxia legends, Ling Feng would definitely not show mercy!

"Ao Yun, you better not let me down!" Ling Feng inhaled deeply, a hint of severity flashing through his eyes.

Catherine’s suitors, the relentless pursuit of the Freedom Organization, the mysterious figures in black, the dormant Mo Yu Sword... Ling Feng realized he had quite a few issues to sort out recently. Fortunately, his powers had fully recovered, and he now had ample confidence to deal with these matters.

At this moment, Ling Feng received a call from Yun Hanrui, saying that she had booked a room at the Junyue Grand Hotel for the evening, asking him to arrive before seven o’clock, and she emphasized that Liu Tingyu would also be there!

Ling Feng was a bit baffled. What was Yun Hanrui up to, suddenly inviting him to dinner at a hotel? And why did she make a point of mentioning Liu Tingyu?

"Could it be some kind of memorable day today?" Ling Feng smiled wryly, but suddenly, the smile on his face froze. He remembered—if he wasn’t mistaken—today should be Liu Tingyu’s birthday!

Lately, he had been so preoccupied with other matters that he almost forgot!

Regretfully hitting his own head, Ling Feng wondered, if he really had forgotten, how could he have the face to meet Liu Tingyu?

Remembering all that Liu Tingyu had done for him, warmth filled Ling Feng’s heart.

Today was the first birthday for Liu Tingyu since they met, and she had not mentioned it, but he absolutely couldn’t take it lightly; he had to give Ting Yu an unforgettable memory!

After some thought, a slight smile appeared on Ling Feng’s face—he already had some ideas for their meeting tonight!

...

"I’m so tired!" Liu Tingyu tidied up the documents on her desk and stretched her body. Having passed her graduation thesis, she had almost become Yun Hanrui’s most competent assistant!

Yun Hanrui was quite astonished by Liu Tingyu’s rapid growth. In just a few short months, Liu Tingyu’s ability to handle affairs was no less than those with over a decade of experience, belying her recent college graduate status.

"Ting Yu, I’ve invited some guests to Junyue Grand Hotel tonight. Come along with me!" Yun Hanrui walked over to Liu Tingyu and said softly.

Liu Tingyu asked curiously, "Why would I go if you invited guests? I was planning to get back early today!"

Yun Hanrui said with a smile, "Is it because you want to get back early to see Ling Feng? Don’t spoil him too much, or he’ll end up out of control!"

Liu Tingyu looked at Yun Hanrui with amusement, "Don’t be in denial. Who was pacing back and forth in front of me yesterday, nearly making my head spin?"

Yun Hanrui’s face flushed, "Hmph, it doesn’t matter. You’re coming with me today anyway! Everyone we’re meeting knows each other, I just thought it’d be nice to get together since it’s been so long!"

Liu Tingyu nodded, "Alright then, I’ll let Ling Feng know first!"

"No need, I’ve already told him!" Yun Hanrui said, "Let’s go, we’ll head over together!"

With that, Yun Hanrui grabbed Liu Tingyu by the arm and dragged her out without further discussion.

Soon, they arrived at Junyue Grand Hotel and entered the private room that Yun Hanrui had booked in advance.

"Where is everyone?" As they entered, Liu Tingyu asked with confusion, "Who’s coming? Why is there no one here?"

𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Yun Hanrui smiled, "Many friends are coming—Xiaoxue, Feifei and so on. They’re probably still on their way. Just wait here for a bit, I need to run to the restroom!"

With those words, Yun Hanrui turned and left the room.

Liu Tingyu took off her jacket and sat down. She felt something was odd about Yun Hanrui, but couldn’t put her finger on what it was.

"Could it be that there’s been too much going on lately, and I’m just overwrought?" Liu Tingyu shook her head helplessly.
