"Shuangyue, long time no see. Did you keep your promise to me in Tianyu?"
Leng Shuangyue, with her entourage, arrived at the shop entrance. Not long after, Leng Shuanglong, the young master of Tianyu, alighted from his car and walked towards her.
As he passed through the crowd, all the guards knelt, but he stopped them.
Leng Shuangyue ran over with a smile, took Leng Shuanglong's arm, and said, "Brother, I'm a princess of Tianyu. Do you really need to worry so much about my safety?"
"These expert guards are more than enough to protect me. You even made me wear a mask. My peerless beauty remains unseen to this day, what a pity."
"You little rascal, I'm doing this for your safety. What if you encounter danger when you're out alone?"
"Especially if you meet a martial arts master, and a scoundrel at that, who fancies your looks, you'll be in trouble."
Leng Shuanglong shot her a glance and followed her into the shop.
The moment the customers in the shop saw Leng Shuanglong, all the beautiful women were stunned.
They had never seen a man with such charisma. Leng Shuanglong, dressed in white, with exquisite features and fair skin, looked as cold as ice, as if he had walked straight out of a wuxia drama on television.
At that moment, all the girls were captivated.
Only Princess Leng Shuangyue showed no joy. Although she missed her brother, she was annoyed by his nagging words upon their meeting.
They went upstairs together. As soon as they pushed open the door and walked in, Leng Shuanglong saw two teacups on the tea table, and the tea was still warm. It was clear someone had been there recently.
He couldn't help but look at Leng Shuangyue curiously and ask, "Shuangyue, did you entertain guests just now?"
"Yes, Brother. Please sit down first, and I'll brew you a cup of tea. We can chat while we drink. You won't believe it, but I met a wonderful man just now. Not only is his martial arts skill formidable, but his medical skills are also incredibly impressive..."
In front of her brother, Leng Shuangyue showed no trace of her usual aloofness. They were simply too familiar with each other.
When Leng Shuanglong heard that his sister's illness had been completely cured, he was shocked on the spot!
He looked at Leng Shuangyue in disbelief and asked, "Shuangyue, let me feel your pulse. I'll examine you to see if you've been tricked. No one in the entire Tianyu can cure your illness."
"How could anyone in this small Jiangcheng cure your difficult and complicated condition?"
"I'm telling the truth. If you don't believe me, then examine my pulse."
Leng Shuangyue said with great confidence and offered her wrist for her brother to diagnose her.
Leng Shuanglong carefully examined her and was surprised to find that the ice-cold poison in his sister's body had indeed disappeared.
He looked at Leng Shuangyue in astonishment and asked, "Shuangyue, what is the name of the person who treated you? His medical skills are so extraordinary that he actually resolved the ice-cold poison within you."
"Brother, I told you it was true! However, you'll be greatly surprised when you learn his name!" Leng Shuangyue deliberately played coy. Seeing that Leng Shuanglong couldn't guess, she finally said, "His name is Li Yang, the murderer you asked me to find."
"What did you say?"
Leng Shuanglong's expression changed drastically.
He quickly stood up from his seat, surveyed the surroundings, and asked, "Where is Li Yang? I want to kill him myself!"
"Brother, calm down. Don't panic."
Leng Shuangyue persuaded him, then asked him to sit down and continue drinking tea. "Actually, we've all misunderstood him. Li Yang is not the culprit who stole the treasure. He was just sitting here drinking tea with me earlier."
"I even fought him, but I was no match for him."
"Are you injured? What did that beast do to you?" Leng Shuanglong asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, Brother. I'm fine. Not only did he not harm me, but he also cured my illness. To treat my illness, he absorbed the ice-cold poison from my body into his own. To prove his innocence, he even asked me to kill him," Leng Shuangyue said earnestly.
"Did you do it? If you kill him, you'll definitely find the divine lamp!" Leng Shuanglong stated decisively.
"Brother, are you stupid? If the divine lamp isn't on him, how can we find it?" Leng Shuangyue rolled her eyes and said, "He saw that note, and the handwriting isn't his either. Now he suspects someone framed him."
"Impossible!"
Leng Shuanglong said very seriously, "If the culprit isn't him, why would he leave his name after stealing the divine lamp? To frame him, he would have to provoke our Tianyu? Unless this person has nothing better to do."
"But he got the divine lamp!"
Leng Shuangyue continued, "I think this culprit must have a grudge against Li Yang and also wants our divine lamp, which is why he devised this plan. This way, not only can we not find the divine lamp, but he can also use us to eliminate Li Yang."
"This is a plan to kill two birds with one stone!"
"Shuangyue, you are too naive. You've been tricked by that Li Yang kid."
Leng Shuanglong absolutely refused to believe Li Yang's words. He looked at Leng Shuangyue seriously and said, "Perhaps the culprit not only stole the divine lamp but also fancies your looks and wants to trick you into trusting him and having no hostility towards him."
"Brother, why are you always so stubborn? I don't think Li Yang is the kind of person you describe. He's not greedy at all. When he left earlier, I tried to return ten billion to him, and he refused it. If he were truly the culprit, why would he let such a good opportunity to get rich pass by?" Leng Shuangyue complained to Leng Shuanglong.
"Hmph, he must have his reasons for doing that. Shuangyue, quickly tell me where he lives, or where his shop is! I want to go kill him now and demand the divine lamp back."
"If he doesn't hand it over, I will cut him into a thousand pieces," Leng Shuanglong said, drawing his sword and preparing to leave.
Leng Shuangyue immediately stopped him at the critical moment and said firmly, "Brother, I will not allow you to trouble Li Yang. If you insist on going, then kill me first."
"After all, he saved my life. I consider him my friend, and I won't allow you to harm him."
"Shuangyue, don't be foolish. He didn't save you wholeheartedly. Think carefully, you've only met him once, why would he risk his life to save you? And after saving someone, he doesn't covet wealth. Who in the world is so foolish?" Leng Shuanglong said seriously.
"I don't care, he's a good person anyway. He saved me because he also wants to find out who the culprit is, and he's a good doctor who seeks no reward. Brother, for the sake of me being saved by him, please don't make things difficult for him."
"I promise, I will find the divine lamp and bring it back to Tianyu," Leng Shuangyue said anxiously.
She knew that her brother's strength was a hundred times greater than hers. If he insisted on causing trouble for Li Yang, Li Yang would surely not be his match and would be killed by him!
