After Becoming Enemies with Magical Girls, They Started Chasing Him Back Chapter 34

"What auntie? Call me big sister!"

Fang Lin frowned, but immediately put on a smile and gave Ling Wanqing a hug, even pinching her little cheeks in return.

"It's only been a while, and you've grown even prettier. What brings you here? Did you come looking for Xiaofeng?"

"Auntie Fang!"

Teased by Fang Lin like that, Ling Wanqing's face instantly turned red to the tips of her ears. Su Lin had indeed guessed half of it right.

"Mom, stop teasing her. Didn't I tell you over the phone? Xiaoqing will be spending the Spring Festival with us this year."

Ling Xiaoyu arrived just in time, giving Ling Wanqing a chance to escape.

Ling Xiaoyu had inherited Fang Lin's genes, and the two looked somewhat alike. Fang Lin herself looked like a girl around twenty-five, so when they walked down the street together, people would probably think they were sisters.

Father Ling and Fang Lin were about to greet Ling Xiaoyu as they stepped into the house, but Ling Xiaoyu suddenly held out her hand and stopped them.

The couple both froze at Ling Xiaoyu's action. What was going on?

When Ling Wanqing saw this, surprise immediately spread across her face, and her imagination started running wild.

Big Sister Xiaoyu was... not letting her parents into the house?!

A strange thought surfaced in Ling Wanqing's mind. Then, thinking of Ling Feng, she suddenly understood.

This was a warning!! Big Sister Xiaoyu wanted them to apologize to Brother Xiaofeng! That had to be it!! Ling Wanqing's gaze became increasingly determined, but then quickly softened again.

Although deception was wrong, Brother Xiaofeng had been raised by Uncle Ling and Auntie Fang for so many years. He should repay their kindness properly.

Ling Wanqing analyzed the situation with what she believed to be exceptionally rational thinking.

However, Ling Xiaoyu's first words in the next second left Ling Wanqing dumbfounded.

Ling Xiaoyu crossed her arms over her chest. Looking closely, there was even a hint of...

Dissatisfaction?!

"Mom, Dad, where are our Spring Festival gifts?" Ling Xiaoyu raised an eyebrow, a faint smile still on her lips. "Don't tell me... you forgot?"

Ling Wanqing:??

This move genuinely left Ling Wanqing stunned. Should she say Ling Xiaoyu was incredibly bold, or that she was actually angry?

"You haven't come back even once in two years, and now you've returned for Spring Festival empty-handed again?"

"Th-this..."

The couple almost simultaneously looked away, awkwardly scratching their heads. Embarrassment was written all over their faces.

"Xiaoyu, your mom and I left in a hurry this time, so we forgot," Father Ling explained.

What a weak excuse.

"Hey, don't listen to your dad's nonsense. We just missed you and Xiaofeng so much that we forgot," Su Lin declared righteously.

"By the way, where's Xiaofeng? Why didn't he come out to welcome us when we got back? Did he run off to an internet café again? Don't worry, I'll give him a proper lesson when I see him."

"Alright, alright, come in. Xiaofeng is with his classmates right now. I'll call him." Ling Xiaoyu looked helpless.

"Also, you didn't prepare New Year's gifts for us, but we prepared some for you. Xiaoqing even helped pick out quite a few."

As Ling Xiaoyu spoke, she placed more than a dozen beautifully wrapped gift boxes and shopping bags in front of them.

Well, now the couple felt even more embarrassed.

Su Lin excitedly hugged Ling Xiaoyu. "Just as expected of my good daughter!"

"Th-this..." Father Ling put down the newspaper in his hand. "How shameful—cough, cough. I mean, very nice. Then I'll accept them first."

"Get out of here, your daughter never said they were for you!"

"What kind of nonsense is that?" Father Ling looked at Ling Xiaoyu again. "Daughter, look at your mom!"

Ling Xiaoyu rubbed her forehead, feeling speechless. "Dinner is ready. We'll eat once Xiaofeng gets back."

"No wonder I smelled something delicious earlier. I never expected Xiaoyu to have already made dinner and waited for us."

Ling Xiaoyu:

You Know That's Fucking Illegal, Right?

At the dinner table, Zhao Ping had been gossiping ever since everyone sat down.

The moment Zhao Ping saw Li Juncheng earlier, he felt that guy was no good. He wanted to get closer to Su Xiaoxiao? He should have looked in a mirror first.

Then Su Xiaoxiao slapped him in the face with reality. She could not even be bothered to acknowledge him! Zhao Ping nearly died laughing.

"Oh, right, Ling Feng. I felt like you and that guy named Li Juncheng knew each other?"

"More or less..."

Ling Feng thought about it. There was nothing to hide about it anyway, so he told them what had happened.

After hearing Ling Feng's account, everyone felt an indescribable fury rise within them. They wanted nothing more than to kill that bastard.

"That Li Juncheng is such a fucking scumbag! He actually tried to lay his hands on such a young girl?! And he's from our school too. We absolutely can't let this slide!"

Among them, Su Xiaoxiao was the angriest.

Hearing that something so heinous had happened at one of her family's businesses, and that the people involved had even aided the wrongdoing and tried to cover it up, her expression immediately turned serious.

"Don't worry. I'll handle this."

After saying that, Su Xiaoxiao got up and walked to the window, calling her father to explain what had happened. It would surely be dealt with soon.

After all, this was no small matter.

Targeting a female student still in high school was something the authorities took extremely seriously, and it could also cause severe social repercussions.

As for the Linzhuo side, she told her people to deal with it as quickly as possible.

After returning to their seats, they did not want this matter to ruin the cheerful atmosphere, and they seemed to forget about it soon enough.

Ling Feng could not possibly tell them everything. He could not exactly say that he had taken on seven or eight people alone, especially when several of them had been professional bodyguards.

Just then, his phone rang. It was Ling Xiaoyu.

When he answered, Ling Xiaoyu said their parents had already returned and told him to hurry home.

Since the room was well soundproofed, everyone had heard the contents of the call. Zhao Ping told Ling Feng to get back quickly and not worry about them.

"Don't forget tomorrow, alright? (?-ω?`)" Zhao Ping felt deeply regretful. It was not often that they got together, and another chance had gone to waste.

"See you tomorrow, Master." Su Xiaoxiao waved, still looking as cute as before (//?//). In any case, she was just a little loli.

Of Su Yun and Yuwen, only Yuwen said goodbye to Ling Feng. Su Yun did not say a word, but when she looked at Ling Feng now, there was unexpectedly a trace of... warmth in her eyes?

Naturally, Ling Feng had no idea why. Maybe it was because they were both Astral Mark Girls?

After a simple farewell, he took the elevator down. By coincidence, Ling Feng ran into Li Juncheng again.

The moment Li Juncheng saw Ling Feng, he tensed up. He was afraid Ling Feng would bring up old scores, and when he thought of Ling Feng's fighting skills... tsk, tsk...

However, none of what Li Juncheng imagined happened. Ling Feng ignored him completely and walked straight out the door.

It was not that Ling Feng did not care. He already knew Li Juncheng was finished.

But Li Juncheng did not see it that way. He thought Ling Feng looked down on him. Being ignored like this felt even worse than being hit in the face!

One day, I'll get revenge!

Ling Feng had barely stepped out the door when seven or eight police cars surrounded Clover Bar.

Seeing that something had happened, plenty of onlookers eagerly came out carrying their meal trays, eating as they watched the excitement.

The owner of a noodle shop across the street noticed the commotion. She hurried inside, carried out a wooden bucket full of leaves, and dumped them all in front of her shop.

Then she brought out a broom and casually swept a few times for show.

Alright, now she could watch the excitement in peace.

"Who owns this bar? Do you know someone named Li Juncheng?" the lead detective asked.

"I do, I do, Officer. Why don't we go inside and talk slowly?" Zhang Feng's legs went weak at the sight of the scene outside.

"Hmph? Talk slowly? Men, take this man and Li Juncheng away together!"

"Yes, Captain!"

Soon afterward, Li Juncheng was escorted out of the bar by two detectives.

Li Juncheng looked terrified, having no idea what was happening, and kept shouting curses.

"Let me go! Do you know who I am?!"

Li Juncheng had been raging furiously, but the moment he saw Zhang Feng, his heart sank straight to the bottom.

Even Manager Zhang had been arrested?

Once the two were forced into the police cars, the onlookers were already stunned. This swift, decisive style was clearly not something ordinary police officers could pull off.

Some people began guessing whether they were special forces. They were far too imposing.

"Isn't that... the owner of Clover Bar?" Someone sharp-eyed had already recognized him.

"It really seems to be! What's going on?"

Faced with all this, Li Juncheng still could not believe it. Was his bright future really about to be ruined like this?

"Impossible! I still have endless wealth and glory waiting for me!"

"My life has such a bright future ahead of it! It can't end here!"

"Absolutely impossible!"

The lead detective could not care less about Li Juncheng's impotent rage.

Leaning against the car window, he unhurriedly pulled out a cigarette, lit it with a lighter, took a deep drag, and exhaled a curl of smoke. Then he smiled.

"You fucking broke the law, you know that?"

Afterward, the entire team wrapped up. The seven or eight police cars disappeared from everyone's sight before long.

All that remained at the scene was an uproar~

A Tumult of Emotions

By the time Ling Feng took a taxi home, it was nearly eight o'clock.

He had already eaten dinner at Clover Bar, so he sent Ling Xiaoyu a message beforehand and then got into a taxi.

Although Ling Feng usually deliberately acted as though he did not care, he was actually extremely uneasy inside.

After all, he had not seen his parents for over two years. There would inevitably be some distance and unfamiliarity between them.

While Ling Xiaoyu was taking a shower, Ling Wanqing finally gathered her courage and spoke.

"Auntie Fang, is Xiaofeng really Big Sister Xiaoyu's biological younger brother?"

The moment Ling Wanqing said that, there was a loud clatter! The remote control Fang Lin had just picked up fell to the floor.

Fang Lin then looked at Ling Wanqing with an incredulous expression, while Father Ling, seated nearby, looked the same.

For a moment, the atmosphere seemed to freeze, as though Ling Wanqing had asked something she should not have.

"Did... did Xiaoyu tell you something?" Fang Lin's expression was complicated.

Father Ling merely sighed softly. He said nothing and lowered his head to continue reading his newspaper.

Because he knew that, like the newspaper in his hands, this matter could not be kept hidden forever. Besides, it was not a wet tissue.

"Th-the thing is, it happened like this..."

Ling Wanqing then recounted everything that had happened today, including Ling Luoluo coming to knock on the door, exactly as it had occurred.

After thinking it over long and hard, Ling Wanqing still decided she needed to confirm it herself. Otherwise, she would never feel at ease.

That meant Ling Wanqing and Ling Feng were not related by blood at all.

And why did she feel a sense of anticipation? No, having such thoughts was absolutely wrong!
