Rebirth! The Assassin's Revenge-Chapter 441: Carefree

Ling Tianyou arrived at the company, and his assistant, noticing his slightly red eyes, immediately expressed concern, "President Ling, did you not sleep well? Why are your eyes swollen? Would you like me to buy some eye patches to reduce the swelling?"

Ling Tianyou glanced at the assistant, and the assistant promptly fell silent.

"Help me investigate someone." Ling Tianyou pulled out a photo from his coat pocket: "Gu Chengyue! Let me know as soon as you find something. Don’t let Young Madam know, and even if she does know, if she asks, it’s not necessary to tell her. Be discreet while investigating. Understood?"

The assistant responded, glancing at the man in the photo with a look of admiration, "Does such a good-looking person really exist?"

Perhaps feeling Ling Tianyou’s gaze on him, the assistant immediately shut his mouth.

Why does President Ling seem so unusual today? Could it be that Young Madam’s secret lover was discovered by him?

If so, that wouldn’t be surprising at all.

With looks like the man in the photo, even a straight man could be swayed.

Let alone Young Madam, who’s always been in the Gu Family, a cloistered young lady who hasn’t seen much of the world.

Ling Tianyou withdrew the photo, "Why aren’t you going to find out?"

The assistant nodded, quickly responding with a yes!

On his way out, he also helped Ling Tianyou close the office door.

Ling Tianyou sat on the leather chair in his office, his eyes fixed on the man in the photo.

It was this man who caused Gu Weiwei to lose her father when she was young, to suffer cold stares.

It was also this man who abandoned Gu Weiwei’s mother, leaving Gu Weiwei with no one to care for her after her mother’s death.

If he found him, he would definitely make him pay.

And this man shouldn’t exist in Gu Weiwei’s world now.

Because from all her reactions, she had long given up hope on this father.

Her world, as long as her mother and he were in it, was enough.

Such an irresponsible man, he wasn’t even worthy of appearing in front of her.

Ling Tianyou stared for who knows how long before finally placing the photo in the bottom drawer of the cabinet, locking it as well.

Once Gu Chengyue was found, this photo could disappear forever.

Thinking of this, Ling Tianyou still couldn’t figure out why he felt a little stifled in his chest.

It seemed only last night she realized why Gu Ningyue hated Gu Zheng and Ye Mingchen so much.

Both men had shadows of her father, didn’t they?

One who didn’t care if his wife and daughter lived or died, another who only thought of his own enjoyment, lacked any sense of responsibility.

"Fool, why didn’t you tell me sooner?"

Ling Tianyou sighed, feeling a vague sense of oppression. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Even until today, no matter how much she acted nonchalant with her tear-swollen eyes, as if she had returned to her usual indifference.

But he, he still couldn’t escape those past memories.

Such a small child, how much unbearable hardship must she have endured to treat her mother’s illness?

Where was Gu Chengyue at that time?

Was he living carefree or working hard for a new family?

Neither is acceptable!

And later on, when she followed Xia Yingbai to learn, she must have suffered a lot too, right?

Climbing to the top assassin position.

How much blood and tears must she have shed to become who she is today?

Ling Tianyou clenched his fists tightly, his heart firmly set on teaching Gu Chengyue a lesson.

Even if he was already dead, he would dig three feet to find his corpse and lash it!

At this moment, on the other side of the city, Gu Ningyue had already dressed and arrived at the dessert shop where she had arranged to meet Man Qianshan.

The place was adorably decorated, even the wallpaper was pink.

Seeing the wind chime swaying at the door, a smile appeared at the corner of Gu Ningyue’s lips.

After a while, a girl in a plaid dress and a beret walked in brightly.

Looking around, her eyes fixed on her, "Master!"

Speaking, Man Qianshan came over like a cheerful little butterfly.

Gu Ningyue felt a bit uncomfortable for a moment, finding Man Qianshan’s brightness somewhat dazzling.

For someone like her, it was even slightly painful to the eyes.

But luckily, though Man Qianshan talked a lot on WeChat, she was very polite in person, "Master, have you been waiting long?"

Her eyes blinked like those of an innocent little deer.

Gu Ningyue shook her head, "No, I just arrived too."

Man Qianshan breathed a sigh of relief, "That’s good, it’s my first time out for a meal, it wouldn’t be good to make Master wait."

Gu Ningyue smiled, called over the waiter, ordered something for Man Qianshan, then looked at her, "Have you memorized the acupuncture points charts?"

Man Qianshan nodded confidently, "Yes, at first I didn’t understand, but after a while, I got the hang of it."

Gu Ningyue looked at the milk in her cup, paused for two seconds, then suddenly pointed to several points and asked, "Then tell me, what are these two points? What reaction will occur if pressed here and here in sequence?"

Man Qianshan was taken aback, seemingly not having expected this sudden test, thought for a long time before explaining the points and saying, "First there’s mild nausea, then numbness and vomiting in the limbs, severe cases might cause fainting."

After speaking, the girl holding the milk tea cautiously looked at Gu Ningyue and asked, "Master, did I get it right?"

Gu Ningyue smiled, "Not bad."

Man Qianshan took a quiet breath at her master’s approval.

But just as she breathed out, Gu Ningyue quickly posed another difficult question, "What are these points here, here, and here? If I press them two to three times in sequence, what would be the outcome?"

Man Qianshan looked at Gu Ningyue with a face full of confusion, then shook her head with a bit of embarrassment, "Master... I don’t know..."

She seemed like a bulb that had lost power, sitting there looking somewhat dejected.

Gu Ningyue said calmly, "It’s okay, you’ve done well learning on your own to get the last question right. Besides, it’s not something that can be truly mastered overnight."

Even knowing these principles, you need real skills to practice them.

Man Qianshan carefully looked at Gu Ningyue, "Will you teach me personally in the future, Master?"

Gu Ningyue smiled, "Do you really want to take me as your master?"

Man Qianshan nodded, "Yes!"

Gu Ningyue looked into Man Qianshan’s eyes. Her eyes held the untainted purity of a young girl, a beauty she herself could never hope to achieve.

If she could, she would also want to be like Man Qianshan, so carefree.
