=========================== BEGINNING ================================

Lan Ling’s reddish body appeared to be translucent. She was wriggling around Yang Ming as a seductive moan escaped from her throat.

“Quickly… I want it…” Lan Ling couldn’t hold it in anymore and protested in a soft tone.

“Didn’t you want me to ravish you?” Yang Ming smirked like a bad boy. In fact, he couldn’t hold it in any longer. However, Yang Ming still needed to resist the urge for the sake of conquering this little fairy completely.

“I… am defeated…” Lan Ling begged for mercy.

At the instant Yang Ming heard Lan Ling’s pleading, he mounted her with his gun.

After they held off for half an hour, they merged into one in the blink of an eye as they sought each other fanatically…

“Yang Ming, please don’t be like this in the future. I beg you.” Afterward, Lan Ling coquettishly burrowed into Yang Ming’s embrace.

“I didn’t. I felt you were more passionate this time. I was planning to delay our game time in the future!” Yang Ming said.

“Delay?” Lan Ling was caught by surprise. “Don’t. I almost died just now.”

“Wasn’t it a heavenly death?” Yang Ming laughed.

“What? That’s so bad!” In retrospect, the feeling just now was uniquely pleasurable. However, holding it in was also suffering.

============================== END ===================================

Both of them lingered on the bed for a long time. When they were beating on the metal [1], Yang Ming looked at the time. It was already 6 p.m. Yang Ming had to go back because his parents had returned home.

Yang Ming took out the punk’s wallet. He took out most of the notes and passed it to Lan Ling without counting. “There are many shops and snack vendors around. You can buy something for yourself. I’m sorry, Little LingLing. I can’t go with you.”

“Never mind. You can leave if you’re busy. I haven’t finished the food I bought yesterday.” Lan Ling said, “Is it necessary to give so much money?”

“It doesn’t belong to me anyway. You keep it.” Yang Ming thought of the unlucky punk, and he couldn’t help but laugh.

Yang Ming exited the corridor. He hesitated for a while, then he turned around and walked toward Liu Weishan’s house.

Liu Weishan was writing invitations. When he saw Yang Ming, he greeted him joyfully. Liu Weishan welcomed the young man to visit him to make up for the regret that his son went missing six years ago.

“Elder Liu, I went to see Lan Ling, and came to visit on my way back.” Yang Ming sat on the sofa and said.

“Good. Dear wife, put the invitation cards nicely. I need to talk to Little Yang for a moment.” Liu Weishan instructed his spouse.

Liu Weishan’s spouse nodded her head and busied herself with her task.

“Elder Liu, why are you writing invitations? Is there a happy event?” Yang Ming was curious. “Is it that your son returned?”

“Ai! If he comes back, that would be great!” Liu Weishan shook his head. “To be honest, my son and his bride disappeared on the night before their wedding six years ago.

“Disappeared!” Yang Ming was shocked. Yang Ming thought his son was throwing a tantrum and went to another city or country. Yang Ming didn’t expect him to be missing!

“Yeah, they disappeared without any message. The two of them vanished into thin air.” Liu Weishan shook his head again.

“I’m sorry, Elder Liu. I have reminded you of your painful memory!” Yang Ming felt sorry.

“It’s okay. It has been so long that I am done feeling sad about it. I still have a life to live, right?” Liu Weishan smiled bitterly.

Yang Ming nodded his head and didn’t say anything. He never expected that a famous master in the country like him had such a painful past. Yang Ming didn’t ask why didn’t he look for his son. Because at that time Elder Liu should have used his identity and connections to find his son, but he probably didn’t find anything in return.

“As for the invitation card, hehe, next month is my birthday. I didn’t want to celebrate at first, but some friends and classmates asked me to celebrate, so I have no choice but to write invitations!” Liu Weishan pointed to the invitations on the table and said, “If you’re free, you can come too. Some of them are professors in our school. It’s better for you to know them.”

“Isn’t it not good for such a young man like me to attend? Yang Ming hesitated. But this is the right idea. If I build a connection with the people from school, I can look for some help if I fail a subject.

“It’s okay. My god-daughter will come, and some students as well. They are all young people.” Liu Weishan waved his hand and said, “Okay, it’s settled. I’ll call you when the time comes.

“If you insist, I will come.” Yang Ming nodded his head with a smile. He was thinking of what to give Liu Weishan as a gift. Yang Ming felt that Liu Weishan was a kind person. He taught him about the introduction of jade then he didn’t ask for money when Yang Ming rented the house from him. Yang Ming was sincerely grateful for his help.

Yang Ming would remember the ones who treated him well.

“You only need to bring yourself here. You don’t have to buy a present. I don’t really need anything. Just come with your best regard!” Liu Weishan seemed to figure out what Yang Ming was thinking. He blocked him straight away.

“Hehe, I understand.” Yang Ming laughed.

In the evening, Liu Weishan’s spouse asked Yang Ming to stay for dinner, but Yang Ming declined because he needed to rush home. Liu Weishan seemed disappointed. Then he asked Yang Ming to pay him a visit when Yang Ming was free.

Yang Ming nodded his head as an agreement.

Before he left, Liu Weishan gave two residential passes to Yang Ming and a Song Jiang Industry University’s meal card. Liu Weishan was afraid that it was inconvenient for Lan Ling to eat there, so he requested a meal card for her.

Yang Ming thanked him. He was touched by Elder Liu’s action.

After he got home, Father Yang and Mother Yang had just reached home too. They were making dinner in the kitchen. They asked with concern when they saw Yang Ming, “Big Ming, are you tired from work?”

“Work?” Yang Ming reacted immediately. He told his parents that he was working at Zhang Jiefang’s company yesterday. So he quickly corrected himself, “The work was fine. I kind of like it.”

“That’s great. Uncle Zhang didn’t say that you’re making a mess?” Mother Yang was worried.

“How could it be? I’m doing better than the workers there.” Yang Ming said, “It’s even possible that I could get some bonus at the end of the month!”

“Hehe, is it? So it’s great then!” Mother Yang was quite happy that her son was doing something promising.

“Big Ming, how much can you earn per month? Is it enough for your expenses?” Yang Dahai asked too.

“Why? Do you still want to get money from our son?” Mother Yang wasn’t pleased with it. “Even if it’s enough, we shouldn’t get any from him!”

“I didn’t mean that. Look at you, always in a rush. I meant that if he doesn’t have enough money to spend, then we will subsidize a bit more!” Yang Dahai said with embarrassment.

“Dad, mom, I think it’s enough for me. My basic salary is three thousand yuan together with a bonus.” Yang Ming thought for a second and estimated a number.

“Three thousand yuan!” Even so, Yang Dahai still had to take a cold breath! I’ve been working in the factory for most of my life and my salary is only two thousand yuan. My wife works for the community, and she can only earn eight hundred yuan. We can only reach our son’s salary by combining both of ours! Besides, my son is just starting his university!

“Big Ming, why is it so much? You didn’t simply ask for such a high salary and make Uncle Zhang feel difficult, right?” Mother Yang was amazed too.

“Mom, how could that be? People normally can earn about 4,500 yuan per month!” Yang Ming was telling the truth. Those who carve and polish jade have high business commissions, so they can get 4,000 or 5,000 yuan easily!

“But you have just started to work. Others are already a senior.” Mother Yang said.

“Dad, mom, you don’t have to worry about it! Uncle Zhang is a businessman too. He won’t hire people by favoritism. Even if Zhang Bing and I are best friends, he won’t ruin his business like that!

“Is it? Then it’s good.” Yang Dahai didn’t understand the reasoning, but he was relieved by Yang Ming’s explanation.

Because Yang Ming had started working, their family was really happy that night. Yang Dahai even opened two beers and passed one to Yang Ming. He knew of Yang Ming’s previous experience with drinking, so he knew well about his son’s drinking limit.

“Why are you letting your son drink beer?” When Mother Yang saw Yang Dahai pass Yang Ming a beer, she couldn’t help but frown.

“Big Ming is a better drinker than me. You also know about his previous history.” Yang Dahai waved his hand. “Alright, forget about the past. Big Ming will be a university student soon. I heard that drinking alcohol is common among university students, so we don’t have to restrain him.”

“This is true. I nearly forgot that Big Ming is an adult already!” Mother Yang nodded her head.

One bottle of beer was unquestionably a small case for Yang Ming. He didn’t get flushed, and his heartbeat didn’t accelerate after drinking. After dinner, Yang Ming went back to his room and switched on his computer.

He noticed the phone on his reading table. There were a few messages and a missed call. The call was from Zhang Bing, whereas the texts were from Lan Ling. The content of messages was about how much she missed him.

Yang Ming replied to Lan Ling’s messages. He told her that he had reached home and missed her very much. Zhang Bing’s missed call was ignored without a doubt. Yang Ming was a typical man who favored hoes before bros. [2]
