Urban: It turns out this is a comprehensive world

Chapter 72 The Concert is Approaching

"That only proves that your Qin girl's charm isn't quite there yet, otherwise how could she not hold onto this brat's heart?"

Old Master Qin deliberately teased him, his tone full of mockery.

Faced with this blatant provocation, the old man from the East did not confront it head-on. Instead, he took a roundabout approach and slowly explained his views, appearing very calm and composed.

"You old bastard..." Dongfang Ling was on his phone arguing with Old Master Qin, their words flying back and forth, as if he wanted to rush over and confront him.

Dongfang Hui and Luo Lingtian exchanged a glance, both seeing the unspoken understanding in each other's eyes. The younger generation couldn't get a word in edgewise when these two old men were bickering.

The two tacitly slipped out of the lobby, leaving the two inside plenty of room to maneuver.

As soon as they stepped outside, Dongfang Hui's relaxed expression vanished, replaced by a serious one. He said in a deep voice, "Alright, brat, since you've made that promise and Mingyue is determined to choose you, treat her well from now on."

Otherwise, our Dongfang family isn't pushovers, and we won't tolerate you bullying us.

Luo Lingtian felt a warmth in his heart. He knew that at this moment, Dongfang Hui was not exerting pressure as the head of the Dongfang family, but simply a father who cared about his daughter.

He immediately straightened his back and solemnly promised, "Uncle, rest assured, I, Luo Lingtian, swear to heaven that I will never mistreat Mingyue in the slightest."

On the other side, Cao Xueqing dragged Dongfang Mingyue into the bedroom, locked the door behind her, and looked at her with a serious expression as if she were interrogating a criminal. She went straight to the point: "Mingyue, are you really sure about this? That guy is already engaged. Including you, you've got three girls around you now, right? What are you getting out of this?"

Without the slightest hesitation on Dongfang Mingyue's pretty face, her eyes were full of determination, and her voice was clear: "Mom, I've made up my mind. I like Ling Tian, ​​and I want to be with him."

Cao Xueqing sighed helplessly and tapped her daughter's forehead with her fingertip: "What kind of magic does that boy have that makes you so infatuated? I know he is outstanding, and it's not unfair for you to be with him, but he is engaged and has been flirting with more than one woman. I really can't accept this so easily."

She knew her husband and father-in-law's plans, but as a mother, she couldn't help but worry about her daughter.

"Oh well, you chose this path yourself. If you suffer any injustice in the future, don't go back to your parents' house crying with your pillow in your arms."

Cao Xueqing finally softened, her voice full of tenderness, and gently stroked her daughter's delicate nose.

Dongfang Mingyue immediately took her mother's arm, nuzzled her head against her arm and said in a soft voice, "Mom, no, Ling Tian is so good to us."

With memories from her previous life as a foundation, she had unwavering faith in Luo Lingtian's character and knew that he was never the type to start a relationship and then abandon it.

Cao Xueqing was rendered speechless by her daughter's insistence. Since her daughter was so sure, and her husband and father-in-law had also given their approval, she, as the mother, could only go along with her daughter's wishes and offer her blessings.

But she still had to ask. She cleared her throat and asked casually, "I heard that you, that girl from the Qin family, and a girl named Song Xinyan all live in Lingtian Manor? That guy is all alone, how can he take care of the three of you?"

Cao Xueqing comes from a wealthy family and is naturally familiar with the intricacies of the entertainment circle and the private lives of the rich and powerful. The subtext of her words couldn't be clearer.

I'm a little worried that my daughter won't be happy in the future. Mutual love is the foundation, but if there's disharmony in the relationship, problems will inevitably arise sooner or later.

Luo Lingtian looks tall and strong, but with three women at home, can he really manage to take care of them all?

Don't let your daughter feel lonely and cause some embarrassing trouble. Given Luo Lingtian's status, it won't look good for anyone.

"Oh my god~~"

Dongfang Mingyue was no naive little girl; she instantly understood her mother's implied meaning. Her pretty face flushed red, even her ears turned pink, and she wished she could disappear into the ground.

"Oh dear, this is serious business, don't take it lightly!"

Cao Xueqing glared at her irritably, her questioning relentless.

She dared to move into a man's house without her family's permission back then, but now she's shy?

Seeing her mother's persistent questioning, Dongfang Mingyue had no choice but to blush and whisper the truth: "Well... Ling Tian is quite good in that area, but we... we're both fine."

She wouldn't feel shy talking to other people her age, since she still had memories of her previous life and wasn't a newlywed anymore. But when faced with her mother's question, she couldn't help feeling embarrassed.

I could only give a brief overview of their lives.

"That amazing?" Cao Xueqing's eyes widened in disbelief, but looking at her daughter's reddened yet serious eyes, she couldn't help but believe it.

In this way, she actually felt that it was a good thing that Luo Lingtian was a bit of a womanizer. Otherwise, with his abilities, which woman could withstand his "torture" on her own?

In contrast, the scions of wealthy families who marry into other families in the circle are all secretly having affairs, afraid of being discovered by their families.

To put it bluntly, on the one hand, the other family member comes from a wealthy and influential family, and when they make a scene, it's a complete mess.

But if someone had Luo Lingtian's abilities, their wife would probably be hoping her husband would find a few more women to share the burden.

Time flew by. Luo Lingtian and Dongfang Mingyue spent the morning at the Dongfang family home, having lunch with the elders before setting off back to Lingtian Manor.

The obstacles from the Dongfang family have finally been completely resolved.

Back at the manor villa, Luo Lingtian had no interest in going to the laboratory to do research. He took a rare break and spent the afternoon cuddling with a few girls, enjoying the pleasant time.

As night fell, in an abandoned factory in Haishi, Xiao Chen and his Fox Hunting Squad huddled in the shadows, the atmosphere heavy with tension.

The factory was pitch black, with only a few dying light bulbs emitting a faint glow that barely illuminated a small area, while the rest was swallowed up by thick darkness.

Xiao Chen sat cross-legged on a dilapidated wooden crate, tapping his knee with his fingertips, and looked at Fox Hunter in front of him, asking in a deep voice, "Is everything arranged?"

Fox Hunter stepped forward and replied in a low voice, "Boss, everything is ready. We've found five wanted martial artists who are on the run. They have clean records, so if anything happens, they won't be able to trace it back to us."

"Hmm, your identity hasn't been exposed, has it?"

Xiao Chen asked another question, his eyes full of caution.

He had already figured out who was around Luo Xixi. There were two first-class martial artists protecting her. This setup was perfectly normal for Luo Xixi's status.

To stage a hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress scene, the hired person must be a martial artist.

This time, Xiao Chen was smarter and didn't dare to hire directly. Instead, he had his subordinates go through several layers of connections.

Five martial artists, one at the early stage of first-class level and four at the peak of second-class level. This configuration is just right. The two bodyguards around Luo Xixi are both at the early stage of first-class level. The four peak of second-class level might not be able to win, but they can definitely hold her off for a while.

His order to the five martial artists was to kidnap Luo Xixi. If those four second-rate martial artists had any brains, one of them would definitely take Luo Xixi away. That would be the best time for Xiao Chen to make his appearance.

Of course, if the five-on-two situation becomes a stalemate, he can still make a move.

He wanted to crush or even eliminate these five people with absolute overwhelming force. Since they were all outsiders, their deaths would save him the full amount. The commission was always paid in advance as a deposit, with the balance paid after the job was done. He had no intention of paying the balance at all.

It allows him to perfectly portray the hero saving the damsel in distress while avoiding leaving a bunch of flaws like he did when he approached Yu Bingyu last time—a win-win situation.

"Don't worry, boss, I haven't been exposed. I got the job through a sasaeng fan of Luo Xixi. That guy is crazy; he'll do anything to get close to Luo Xixi."

Fox grinned and added, "Once this is all done, we'll find a chance to get rid of that stalker fan, and then we'll completely sever ties with this matter, leaving not a trace."

"Alright! Keep a close eye on those five men. Report to me immediately if they make any move."

Xiao Chen nodded in satisfaction. Although he couldn't directly command them and the timing and location of their actions were uncertain, which was a bit troublesome, the advantage was that it was safe and real, and not easy to be exposed.

The next day, in a private room at the Emperor Hotel, Luo Lingtian, Luo Yuntian, Zhao Hao, Mo Yu, and Ye Fan sat around a table. The food and drinks on the table hadn't been touched much, but the atmosphere was somewhat tense as they discussed how to deal with Xiao Chen.

Luo Xixi's concert was tonight, but the latest news from Luo Ya forced Luo Lingtian to abandon his original plans.

They originally planned to follow Luo Xixi secretly after the concert, waiting for Xiao Chen to walk into their trap before making their move.

But now it seems that Xiao Chen has become more cunning. He has hired a group of martial artists through several layers of connections, and the target is no longer simple harassment, but direct kidnapping. The situation is different now.

Xiao Chen didn't set a time limit for taking action, only giving him three days, which introduced too many uncertainties.

Although they could secretly follow Luo Xixi during this time, it would be easy for them to expose their whereabouts. If Xiao Chen discovered anything, they probably wouldn't show up again.

Of course, Luo Lingtian also considered taking them directly to Xiao Chen's hiding place, but after thinking about it, he gave up on the plan.

Zhao Hao spoke first: "Old Luo, any new plans? We can't just sit here and wait for those guys to make their move, can we?"

Luo Lingtian picked up his wine glass, took a sip, and said casually, with complete confidence, "The plan? It's very simple. Just stay by Luo Xixi's side and wait."

Mo Yu's eyes lit up, and after a few seconds of thought, he realized what was going on and laughed, "Is it the same trick as when we ambushed Xiao Chen in the neighboring city last time? Waiting for him to come to us like this, this method is really brilliant, both safe and able to catch him off guard."

"That's right, I'll personally use my disguise technique on you to ensure you won't be exposed."

Nodding, Luo Lingtian continued.

Their ambushe of Xiao Chen last time was too crude. Although they disguised themselves, it was only because Xiao Chen was a bit reckless that they were discovered beforehand.
