Super War God in the City

Xiao Chubing’s villa, after the launch event ended, Ling Fan went home early. He couldn’t be of much help with work, so it made more sense to prepare a footbath for his wife ahead of time.

Today, company affairs were busy, and by the time Xiao Chubing got home, it was already after 8 PM.

When he saw his wife return, Ling Fan quickly emerged from the kitchen, calling out, "Hard day, honey? Come here, the foot soak is ready. I also made you a soup to nourish and beautify your skin!"

Xiao Chubing put down her handbag, changed out of her high heels, and gave a brief, warm glance, "You’re quite diligent today!"

Ling Fan chuckled, hurriedly took off his apron, and came out with a basin of foot soak.

Xiao Chubing sat on the sofa, basking in Ling Fan’s attentive service, feeling a delight in body and soul, as if she had sipped honey.

"Honey, there’s something I want to discuss with you," Ling Fan said as he massaged her feet, pondering how to broach the subject. Enjoy exclusive adventures from empire

Leaning on the sofa with half-closed eyes, Xiao Chubing sat up straighter at Ling Fan’s words, her expression turning more serious.

"What is it? What’s the matter?" asked Xiao Chubing, both curious and a bit anxious.

Ling Fan weighed his words, "I’m planning to leave Binzhou for a few days, as short as half a month, or perhaps longer, it’s not certain!"

"You’re leaving? Where are you going? Don’t even think about leaving me behind, Yun Fei and I won’t let you get away with that!" Xiao Chubing suddenly grew nervous and brought Yun Fei into the discussion, now appreciating the benefits of having an ally.

Ling Fan gave a wry smile, "Don’t get agitated, listen to me first. I just want to take a trip to Zhongnan Mountain!" n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"Why are you going there? I heard it’s protected, ordinary people can’t even get in, and supposedly, it’s full of dangers like venomous snakes and fierce beasts. Do you have a death wish?" Xiao Chubing became even more anxious.

"Calm down, just let me finish. Two years ago, I was severely injured, and my master sacrificed his own cultivation to save my life!"

"Knowing he had saved your grandfather years ago, and they had some ties, he worried my injuries wouldn’t heal after his departure, and no one would take care of me. So he married me off to you before his death," Ling Fan explained.

For the first time, Xiao Chubing truly understood the reason and secret behind Ling Fan being married off to her, overwhelming guilt surged in her heart, realizing how she had treated him like a servant over the years.

"Husband, I’ve been bullying you these past two years, I haven’t fulfilled my duties as a wife at all. You must really hate me!" Xiao Chubing murmured with pursed lips.

"What are you talking about? How could I hate you? Marrying you is my fortune, and although these past two years have been tough at home!

Without you, I would have been homeless on the streets long ago, and I wouldn’t even know what I’d look like, nor would I have recovered so quickly!" Ling Fan said cheerfully.

Pouting slightly, Xiao Chubing gave Ling Fan a glance, "Always sweet-talking. But why are you going to Zhongnan Mountain, is it related to your injury?"

Ling Fan nodded, "Yeah, I haven’t fully recovered yet. I have some lingering injuries, and the enemies I’ve been facing lately are getting stronger.

With my return, there are many vendettas to settle. My current strength is too weak to protect you all!

I will leave Vermilion Bird here during my absence; she will protect you all!"

Xiao Chubing pursed her lips, "I’m still worried about you!"

"Don’t worry, I’ve got it under control. I’m tough; nothing will happen to me!" Ling Fan consoled her.

"Anyway, I don’t care—figure it out yourself. If anything happens to you, then we’ll just become someone else’s women, bound to give you a big green hat!" Xiao Chubing playfully scolded.

Ling Fan helped dry her feet and chuckled, "I let you speak without restraint. Let’s see how I’ll punish you tonight!"

He immediately scooped Xiao Chubing up by her waist and headed straight for the bedroom upstairs.

On the large bed in the upstairs bedroom, the two were intensely entangled. Just as Ling Fan was about to cross the line, Xiao Chubing quickly stopped him, panting, "No, I’m not feeling well today....."

Ling Fan instantly stiffened, finding the situation incredibly frustrating.

"Honey... sorry, I didn’t expect it to coincide like this!" Xiao Chubing came over and nestled against him, her face flushed.

"Hehe, no worries. I’ll punish you next time. You spared me once before, and I’ll spare you this time—now we’re even!" Ling Fan teased.

Xiao Chubing shyly buried her head in Ling Fan’s chest, "By the way, when do you plan to leave?"

Ling Fan pondered, "If nothing else comes up, I’d like to leave tomorrow!"

He really didn’t want to delay any longer, his desire and urgency for regaining his strength were growing more intense!

"Then I’ll see you off tomorrow!" Xiao Chubing lifted her head and said.

"No need, I’m not sure what time yet. You go about your business. The company has just been reorganized and is not yet on track. I’ll let you know when I’m leaving, don’t worry!" Ling Fan gently patted her smooth back.

There were no more words that night. The next morning, just as Xiao Chubing was getting ready, Ling Fan received a call from Xu Miaotong.

"Hehe, can’t leave for now. I need to go to the campus to check something out. Might make it by noon; you go ahead to the office!" Ling Fan shook his phone.

Xiao Chubing turned around twice in front of the fitting mirror, checking out her graceful figure, fastened her buttons, and nodded at Ling Fan, "Mhm, don’t forget what I said—if you dare mess up, we won’t let you off even if we become ghosts!"

...

At the entrance of Binzhou University, Ling Fan put down his phone. He had just spoken with Xu Miaotong on the phone; her secrecy was puzzling since she wouldn’t reveal the details.

Soon, he saw two stunning girls appear at the school gate, attracting frequent sideways glances from passing boys, extremely high turnaround.

"Miaotong, do you think my outfit looks good today? No issues, right?" He Jiayi chattered on.

Xu Miaotong was massively confused. Early in the morning, in their dorm room, He Jiayi had changed into seven or eight outfits, determined to meet with Ling Fan about something she wouldn’t reveal, and Xu Miaotong could hardly persuade her otherwise.

It wasn’t others she was worried about, just that this tiger girl might actually do something drastic—she had declared in front of the Fighting Stage that day that she wanted to be Ling Fan’s girlfriend.

"Ahem... Jiayi, let me be straight with you. Ling Fan really has a wife!" Xu Miaotong couldn’t help but remind her again.

"Ah, I know, I know. But you still haven’t answered me—does this outfit look good?" He Jiayi continued fussing over her dress, lifting her arms now and then, tugging at her skirt occasionally.

Xu Miaotong sighed; clearly, this girl hadn’t absorbed a word she said.

"Hey, two beauties, this way!" Ling Fan spotted them and called out from a distance.
