Chapter 27: 027 She is Princess Yongning

Seeing Ye Wanlan sitting opposite Yan Tingfeng, Bing He timely halted his steps.

Tie Ma, following behind him, crashed into his back with a “thud”, causing Bing He to grimace in pain.

Rong Yu looked at the two with disdain: “Just look at you two, scurrying around like headless chickens.”

“No, it’s not that, we were just…” Bing He rubbed his back.

Because Ye Wanlan was there, he didn’t directly voice his thoughts.

Ye Wanlan’s expression was indifferent, she glanced at Yan Tingfeng and also took a sip of tea: “Looking for a woman?”

Bing He looked at her proudly, they had found that wretched woman, a feat worthy of praise!

He began to imagine how much his year-end bonus would be, surely enough for a vacation to an island.

Finally, Yan Tingfeng turned his head: “Let’s talk outside.”

He stood up and left the counseling room.

Bing He followed behind him cheerfully, such matters couldn’t be discussed in front of Ye Wanlan.

Rong Yu muttered, “Ah, someone’s going to get it.”

Yan Tingfeng appeared gentle as water, but his methods were notoriously ruthless.

Those fooled by his appearance would be in for a big surprise.

Rong Yu shivered as if he thought of something.

Ye Wanlan arched her brows and poured another cup of tea for him, asking slowly: “Doctor Rong, what are you trembling about? You haven’t said who the woman is.”

“Student Ye, to tell you the truth, my brother here, he really is pitiful,” Rong Yu feigned wiping tears, “So young, and not yet married, and then…”

“And then what?”

The soft voice fell as Yan Tingfeng unexpectedly returned.

He stood with his arms crossed at the doorway, looking at him with an almost amused expression.

Rong Yu swallowed back the words “A wretched woman slept with him, left him money, and took off.”

He had a premonition that if he let that sentence slip, he might be silently taken out.

And Ye Wanlan carelessly prodded once more: “And then what?”

Rong Yu stuttered under the oppressive gaze: “And then… his brain isn’t working well, he keeps basking in the moonlight at night, it’s so tragic, this painful life, wuu wuu wuu.”

“Is that so,” Ye Wanlan said with a laugh.

Rong Yu was lying, but it had nothing to do with her, she wasn’t interested.

Her continued visits were because she found Rong Yu amusingly foolish, and Yan Tingfeng intrigued her.

Ye Wanlan said indifferently: “I will take my leave first, continue without me.”

“I’m not busy, I’ll walk you out,” Yan Tingfeng turned around.

Rong Yu exclaimed in shock: “Hey, hey, you two shouldn’t get together alone!”

What if two crazy people collided and mutated? Wouldn’t that just blow up the world?

But Rong Yu’s protest was futile; the two left one after the other.

The afternoon sun, filtering through the leaves, speckled the stone path with mottled shadows.

The breeze swept across the grass, stirring the girl’s long skirt that reached her ankles.

Yan Tingfeng suddenly smiled: “Miss Ye, Fang Qingye is looking for you.”

Fang Qingye had posted a missing person notice but to no avail.

“Oh?” Ye Wanlan raised an eyebrow, “Will you tell others?”

“How could I?” Yan Tingfeng smiled softly, “If I did, wouldn’t lots of people compete with me for Miss Ye’s co-driver’s seat? I’m quite selfish.”

Ye Wanlan stretched out her hand and ruffled his hair: “You look better with white hair, that’s enough, you don’t have to see me off.”

She waved her arm, and her figure disappeared from his sight.

Yan Tingfeng’s eyes narrowed, and after a few seconds, he too returned to the counseling room.

Rong Yu quickly asked, “What about that wretched woman? Isn’t there any information? If there’s information, how can you remain so calm?”

Yan Tingfeng picked up the cup of tea that Ye Wanlan had poured: “Ask them.”

Rong Yu turned to Bing He and Tie Ma.

Bing He had a dejected look: “I thought I had found her IP address, but tracing it led to a dead-end.”

Tie Ma scoffed coldly, “Ha, idiot.”

Luckily, this blunder had nothing to do with him, so he could pin it all on Bing He and let Bing He take a punishing eighty beatings.

Rong Yu suddenly realized something was off, “Hey, this was poured by Student Ye for me, I haven’t even had a drink yet!”

“Mm, I drank it.” Yan Tingfeng even turned the cup upside down, showing that he had finished it.

Rong Yu was shocked, “You didn’t like drinking tea before either, it seems to me you just want to compete with me!”

How infuriating, it’s not like he didn’t have hands to pour for himself!

Lin Family.

Lin Wenli was still in seclusion studying.

There was a Chinese public class tomorrow, and he needed to prepare a pre-class speech.

He looked at the historical materials given by the teacher and found it difficult to find a new breakthrough.

“Knock knock.”

The door was knocked on.

“Come in.”

“Do you have a moment?” Ye Wanlan pushed open the door, “I need some study materials.”

Lin Wenli interrupted her, “My living expenses are all charged to the meal card, I have no money, you can leave.”

Ye Wanlan’s movements paused, and a sourness filled her heart, swiftly spreading to all her limbs.

The Transcendent Woman had deceived Lin Wenli of his living expenses time and again; he had developed a conditioned reflex.

Ye Wanlan took a slow breath and stepped forward, “Studying history?”

“It’s none of your business.”

“You seem to have encountered a problem, why not discuss it with sister?”

Lin Wenli just looked at her indifferently, “Can you leave?”

“Ah, the Yan Mountain campaign of 1715, in that war, the King of Yan wiped out the last band of Barbarians on the border of Shenzhou, utterly consolidating Shenzhou into an ironclad whole.” Ye Wanlan asked, “Are you looking for an entirely new perspective to comment on this battle?”

Lin Wenli’s expression was cold.

Ye Wanlan spoke softly, “Have you considered that the King of Yan secretly led the campaign, but Yan City still needed the King of Yan to sit tight to confuse the enemy, causing them to let down their guard? Thus, the ‘King of Yan’ in Yan City was actually Princess Yongning in male disguise, which allowed the real king to catch the enemy by surprise and destroy their lair.”

Lin Wenli was taken aback, “What are you talking about?”

“It’s quite straightforward, right?” Ye Wanlan looked at him, “Princess Yongning and the King of Yan are siblings, with the King of Yan being the leader of the Four Directions Nobility. If anyone could impersonate him to deter others without being detected, who else could it be but Princess Yongning? Tell me, who else could it be?”

She smiled again, light and breezy, “What, could there be two Kings of Yan at the same time? He hadn’t mastered the Penglai Magic, so he certainly didn’t know the Cloning Technique.”

Despite the calm tone of her voice, it was like a thunderbolt had struck!

Lin Wenli suddenly looked at Ye Wanlan, and she simply met his gaze with her tranquil one.

He casually pulled out a couple of exercise books for her and closed his eyes, “I’ve given you the materials, you can go now.”

Ye Wanlan was silent for a moment, then chuckled, “All right, I’ll return them after I’ve finished looking at them.”

Lin Wenli remained cold, “No need, I have plenty.”

He would no longer be as foolish as before, forgiving Ye Wanlan as soon as she spoke a few kind words.

The door closed, and Lin Wenli slowly exhaled.

What nonsense was Ye Wanlan saying?

Princess Yongning disguised as the King of Yan in 1715?

If it were true, how could there be no record of it in history books?

But seconds later, Lin Wenli inexplicably began to search for related materials according to what Ye Wanlan had said and started making a PPT.

Meanwhile, Zhou Hechen returned to the Langting Hotel.

Sheng Yunyi was by his side, dignified and graceful.

Zhou Hechen restrained his temper, “I saw President Quan at Peninsula Restaurant at noon. Aside from work, I have some personal matters I would like to discuss with her.”

“I am terribly sorry, but our President Quan has already settled on a partner,” the assistant said, with a polite yet distant tone, “You both have come here for nothing.”

Zhou Hechen’s expression paused, slightly stunned, “Can you tell me who it is?”
