Rebirth! The Assassin's Revenge-Chapter 489: Losing His Cool

Ever since his student days, Ling Tianyou has always had his way at home.

After graduation, there was nothing he couldn’t have.

For the first time, Ling Tianyou felt nervous or excited about something he wanted.

And for the first time, he was fighting for something for himself.

Sitting beside him, Gu Ningyue wasn’t much better off, she took out her phone and sent a WeChat message to Shen Hanyin: "What to do? I’m about to arrive at the Ling Family, I’m so anxious!"

She hadn’t been this nervous before, even when going on missions, which could be life-threatening.

"Don’t be scared, sister’s got your back!"

Gu Ningyue: "What if his dad absolutely disagrees?"

"There’s nothing you can do about it! Being scared won’t help, and didn’t you say? When the soldiers come you use generals, water floods you use soil to block."

Gu Ningyue sighed, that’s easy to say, but it’s different when you actually have to face it.

Inside, there’s still some panic.

Driving all the way to the old Ling Family house, Ling Tianyou got out of the car with the prepared items in his hand, then opened Gu Ningyue’s car door, looking at her somewhat oddly, "Come on? Why aren’t you getting out of the car?"

From the start, Gu Ningyue had been sitting there unmoving, her fingers tightly gripping the seatbelt.

At this moment, she looked at him with a pitiful expression, "I need to take my time, I feel..." a little scared.

Ling Tianyou saw Gu Ningyue hesitating for the first time, thinking how Ning Yue hadn’t backed down one bit when she faced Nan Shaoyue with a dagger.

"Scared? Don’t worry. I’m here!"

Ling Tianyou bent down to unbuckle Gu Ningyue’s seatbelt, his slender fingers brushing her hair: "Be good, don’t let my parents wait too long."

Gu Ningyue took a deep breath and let go of the seatbelt she was holding: "You said it! You’d protect me!"

Ling Tianyou nodded emphatically, "Of course!"

With one hand holding the gift, he took Gu Ningyue’s hand with the other, and the two walked into the villa together.

"The young master is back!" The butler saw Ling Tianyou, and quickly called people to take the items over: "Miss Gu, please come inside."

Ling Tianyou held Gu Ningyue’s hand as they walked inside, the servants behind watching them in their loving demeanor couldn’t help but murmur to themselves: "Looks like the young master really is going to get engaged to Miss Gu, when did their relationship become so good?"

"It seems the master will be disappointed this time." An older servant spoke the words everyone else dared not say.

"Brother Chen, didn’t Miss Chen just come over a few days ago? The master probably doesn’t like Miss Gu right now! Sigh..."

At this moment, Gu Ningyue and Ling Tianyou had already walked inside, naturally not hearing the two people’s conversation.

Just as they entered, Liu Liu had already come up to them: "Big Brother, Sister-in-law!"

Gu Ningyue saw that in just a short time, Liu Liu had already slimmed down quite a bit, she couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

Ling Tianyou nodded, "Ning Yue bought you some gifts, I’ll ask the butler to send them to your room later."

Liu Liu looked at Gu Ningyue and thanked her: "No need to be so polite, we have everything at home. Xiao Xuan’s art class is about to end, I’ll go pick him up first. Big Brother, Sister-in-law, make yourselves comfortable."

Ling Tianyou responded, Gu Ningyue watched Liu Liu’s back, whispered to Ling Tianyou: "Liu Liu’s mental state doesn’t seem too well, very low.

Compared to the first time visiting, when Liu Liu was outgoing and confident, there’s an indescribable gloom about her now.

She must have had a hard time recently!

Ling Tianyou shook his head helplessly, "There’s nothing we can do, Tianze... sigh!"

Even though Tianze has been sent to rehab, which temporarily prevented the situation from worsening, the trauma to the family still remains.

If possible, Ling Tianyou really wishes none of this had ever happened...

Gu Ningyue was about to speak when Mrs. Ling came down from upstairs: "Tianyou, Ning Yue, you’re back."

"Mom"

"Auntie."

Mrs. Ling slowly walked over to Gu Ningyue and Ling Tianyou, "Your dad had some matters to attend to and went out before you arrived, he’ll be back in a bit. Come, let’s sit over here."

Following Mrs. Ling, they sat on the sofa, Gu Ningyue glanced at Ling Tianyou, still feeling somewhat anxious inside.

"What has Ning Yue been busy with lately?" Mrs. Ling’s demeanor was gentle, without an air of superiority, even more gentle than when Gu Ningyue first visited.

Gu Ningyue sat up straight, losing the casualness from the first visit: "Not busy with anything, just been staying at home..."

Mrs. Ling nodded and asked people to wash some fruits and bring them over: "If you’re not busy, come back with Tianyou more often, his dad isn’t home much, no need to feel restrained."

She knows well that her husband doesn’t favor this daughter-in-law, but as long as her son likes her, and the girl doesn’t have any major flaws, she naturally hopes her son can be happy.

As for the things her husband cares about, she’s never seen them as obstacles.

After all, when she married Ling Chengyang, didn’t her in-laws also disapprove of her?

So many years have passed, and things are still this way, aren’t they?

Moreover, she quite likes this little girl, Gu Ningyue.

Young and beautiful, naturally, and not interested in power, which is commendable.

At least from the information she knows, Gu Ningyue’s qualities don’t stray far from her expectations for a daughter-in-law.

"Hmm." Ling Tianyou answered for Gu Ningyue: "I’ll bring Ning Yue back to visit more often when I have the time."

Mrs. Ling nodded, and before Ling Chengyang returned, she looked at the two of them: "Ru Ru visited the house the other day, when your dad comes back he will definitely bring it up, don’t confront your dad."

Ling Tianyou frowned: "What did she come for?"

Last time, he clearly told Chen Rui not to come to his house again.

It seems she didn’t care about what he said at all.

Mrs. Ling smiled faintly: "For what else, of course, it’s for the Chen Family. You permanently severed cooperation with the Chen Family, Ru Ru has always held resentment over this matter! I think she said quite a bit to your dad."

Ling Tianyou was somewhat unhappy, "She’s really meddlesome, I told her not to go looking for dad. Still, she..."

Gu Ningyue understood his mood, gently reached out and held his hand: "Don’t be angry, let’s wait for Uncle to come back and see. Haven’t heard anything from Uncle yet?"

Mrs. Ling also responded: "Yes! What’s there to be angry about, mom just wants you to be prepared. When did you become so impatient?"

Ling Tianyou pursed his lips, didn’t speak.

Yes, just hearing Chen Rui’s name makes him so impatient?
