Ling Yi didn't care how Su Luoxue, Guo Fan, and the others divided the search area.
They didn't get involved.
With these people around, Ling Yi can completely relax.
Ling Yi was also preparing to do just that.
Around 7 p. m., Xiao Chen and Ye Tian finally arrived.
But he quickly joined Su Luoxue and the others in their discussion.
The group discussed until the early hours of the morning before finally determining their respective search areas.
"Clang!"
Su Luoxue pushed open the door and walked straight into Ling Yi's room.
This left Ling Yi, who was watching short dramas in bed, speechless.
"Hey young lady, is it really okay for you to barge into a man's bedroom in the middle of the night?"
"Wouldn't it be incredibly awkward if I did something like this right now?"
What's there to be embarrassed about?
Ling Yi pointed to himself, then to Su Luoxue: "At least show some respect for the difference in our surnames!"
"What, do you have feelings for me?"
"No!"
"I don't have any either!"
"Forehead!"
Su Luoxue's words left Ling Yi speechless.
"You're a beautiful woman, at least be more careful next time!" Ling Yi said helplessly.
"If you really have an idea, I can consider it."
"Consider what?" Ling Yi asked, puzzled.
"You are a man, I am a woman; you are strong, and I am not weak either."
"My grandfather keeps pressuring you to get married, you can't stay single forever!"
"So?" Ling Yi blinked.
"So, we can totally get married and have a baby."
"Are you serious?" Ling Yi was dumbfounded.
"It's just a suggestion."
Ling Yi couldn't help but give Su Luoxue a serious once-over.
She has a perfect face, a perfect figure, and her family background goes without saying.
It seems like marrying such a beautiful woman wouldn't be bad.
"Besides, you have a cheat code, so Longevity isn't a problem for you in the future. If I use your cheat code, I'll most likely be able to Longevity as well," Su Luoxue added.
"The important thing is, I'll most likely never be able to live without you for the rest of my life."
"From any perspective, our marriage is a good choice."
"No feelings at all!"
"Love grows over time!"
Ling Yi swallowed hard. Damn, is this something a woman could say?
He had a feeling that Su Luoxue was plotting against him, but he had no proof.
"Ahem, did you come to see me for something?" Ling Yi quickly changed the subject.
Su Luoxue said, " Dafeng City, Baihai City, and Red City City —these three cities will be our next search area."
" Dafeng City already has Xiao Chen and Ye Tian, how could another new Protagonist suddenly appear?"
"That's hard to say. All our villains, big and small, are in Dafeng City. Who knows if they'll lure out a few more Protagonist!"
"Hmm, that makes sense."
"Then let's go find it!"
"Do you want to come with me to look for it tomorrow?" Su Luoxue asked.
"I'm not going!" Ling Yi shook his head.
"You're just idling around anyway!"
"What do you mean I'm just idling around? I have things to do."
"Besides, if I go with you to look for it and we find it, who gets the credit, yours or mine?"
Su Luoxue remained silent, simply staring at Ling Yi.
Ling Yi felt a chill run down his spine from staring at him.
Why are you looking at me like that? I really have something to say!
Su Luoxue's Aura Field instantly turned cold.
Without saying a word, he turned and left.
When the door was closed, it was slammed shut with a lot of force, making a loud bang.
"Baffling."
Ling Yi rolled her eyes.
The next morning, Ling Yi was awakened from his sleep by the clanging and banging of system notifications.
[Ding! Protagonist Ye Tian has been attacked. Villain Points +2000!]
[Ding! Protagonist Xiao Chen has been attacked. Villain Points +1500!]
[Ding! Protagonist Guo Fan has been attacked. Villain Points +2000!]
[Ding! Protagonist Qin Wanwan has been attacked. Villain Points +1500!]
Ling Yi shouted in frustration, "System, mute me, it's so noisy!"
All this clanging and banging, can't a person get any sleep?
The system heard Ling Yi's command.
There was silence instantly.
Ling Yi nodded in satisfaction.
I originally wanted to sleep a little longer.
But after closing my eyes, I just couldn't fall asleep.
Reluctantly, I had no choice but to get up.
First, it absorbed Wu Bai Spirit Stone to ensure the normal operation of the Body Refining Art.
Only then did he get up and go downstairs.
However, at this moment, only the Qin Family's servants and the old butler remained in the villa.
Seeing Ling Yi come down.
The old butler, dressed impeccably and meticulously, hurried over.
"Mr. Ling, would you like me to arrange breakfast... um... lunch?"
It's almost 11 o'clock now.
It's really too late to say sooner or later.
"No need." Ling Yi shook his head.
Where are Su Luoxue and the others?
"Miss Su and the others left around eight o'clock. Miss Su asked me to pass on a message to you."
The butler spoke with a smile and a serious expression.
What did you say?
"Miss Su said she wants you to think about what happened last night."
Ling Yi was stunned.
Is Su Luoxue serious?
"Okay, got it."
Ling Yi shook his head and turned to walk out.
I had just reached the doorway.
A burly figure walked in from outside.
The two almost bumped into each other.
Fortunately, Ling Yi reacted quickly and took a few steps back.
"Hey, who are you? I've never seen you before," the young man said in a muffled voice.
This young man was covered in bulging muscles and was over 1.8 meters tall.
His entire being exudes a fierce Aura.
But he was only a Ming Jin Martial Practitioner.
Battle Power around 8 points.
" Qin Wanwan's friend!" Ling Yi said.
"Second Young Master, you've arrived?" The butler behind Ling Yi greeted the young man respectfully.
He then introduced Ling Yi: "Young Master Ling, this is Qin Hao, the young master's son."
"Second Young Master, this is Miss's friend, Ling Yi."
"Oh!" Ling Yi nodded.
Then they missed Qin Hao and continued walking out.
But the next moment, Qin Hao reached out and stopped him.
"My sister's friend?" Qin Hao looked Ling Yi up and down.
He's quite handsome, and the suit he's wearing isn't cheap.
It's probably around a few thousand yuan.
But in Qin Hao's eyes, a suit costing several thousand yuan is just an ordinary piece of clothing.
Is this Qin Wanwan Wanwan's friend?
Isn't Qin Wanwan the one who looks down on ordinary people the most?
When did I become such a friend?
Could it be... my boyfriend?
Is Qin Wanwan's taste really that bad?
"What's up?" Ling Yi was annoyed by Qin Hao's gaze.
That arrogant and condescending attitude is truly annoying.
"You stayed at the Qin Residence last night?" Qin Hao asked again, his tone aggressive.
"Yes!"
"Then you can't leave!" Qin Hao sneered.
"Oh? What do you mean?"
" Qin Wanwan is the future successor of my Qin Family. Her future husband can only marry someone of equal social standing."
"If you really are Qin Wanwan's boyfriend, then you're finished."
"Just friends, not boyfriend."
"I have other things to do!" Ling Yi didn't want to waste his time with some random extra who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
She shoved Qin Hao's arm away and turned to walk out.
Qin Hao's eyes immediately turned cold. Just as he was about to say something, he felt his arm become extremely numb.
A sharp pain followed immediately.
Taking advantage of Qin Hao's momentary Kung Fu Hustle, Ling Yi stepped out the door.
But just then, a system notification sounded.
[Ding, Protagonist detected...]
