This scene not only shocked Gao Yishan, Lei Jie and Su Chun, but also Ding Ling was also very surprised.【】
After all, the days when Gao Yang returned to Tianshi City were simply numbered, and no one found out that he had done anything to accumulate capital during these days.
Even if I exchanged some cash at Lingji that day, the amount of money to buy such a boutique villa is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket and not enough to make a living.
Gao Yang was actually quite surprised. He glanced at the middle-aged man and asked, "Are you..."
The middle-aged man responded: "Brother Zhao asked me to sign a contract and deliver it to you, and then give you the key. And Brother Gao, this villa is a bit big. It takes a lot of energy to clean and tidy up every day. For you,
We will live comfortably in the future. Zhao Ge specially ordered to hire a full-time servant, which has a gold medal rating in the market. Her character and ability are trustworthy, and she has already taken care of it."
Gao Yang secretly said that Zhao Yong was attentive and immediately took over the contract and key: "Thank you, I will tell Lao Zhao that you did a good job."
The middle-aged man was very grateful: "Thank you, Brother Gao. You just came back, so I won't disturb you. Goodbye."
Gao Yang waved and watched the man leave. As soon as he left, Gao Yishan asked in surprise: "Xiao Gao, what's going on here?"
Gao Yang smiled bitterly: "Grandpa, go in first, and I will tell you in detail when you are settled."
Gao Yishan glanced at Ding Ling next to him and knew that his grandson must have something to discuss with the leader of the arbitration bureau, so he didn't ask any more questions and everyone immediately walked into the villa together.
As expected, there was a servant taking care of the villa. This servant was a middle-aged woman in her forties. She seemed to have a very gentle temper, and she should be an easy person to get along with.
There is everything you need in the hall. It has been almost tidied up now. Everything looks high-end and it is a comfortable place to live at home.
Gao Yang gave his grandfather the key and the contract, and then said seriously: "Grandpa, this will be our home from now on. Whatever you need, just tell me and I will try my best to do it for you."
Looking at this paradise-like place, Gao Yishan couldn't believe it.
He had never dreamed before that he, an old country man who lived among garbage all day long, could actually live in such a luxurious villa.
There is also a small garden pond outside, which is simply a dream place.
Gao Yang could naturally imagine the turmoil in his grandfather's heart. He waved and greeted the servant. After asking, he found out that the servant's surname was Song.
"Aunt Song, please take my grandpa to familiarize himself with all the rooms here, and then prepare some food. I think my grandpa and the others are hungry too."
Aunt Song smiled and nodded: "Yes, boss."
Hearing her call him boss, Gao Yang was a little embarrassed and waved his hands quickly: "Aunt Song, when you work at home from now on, don't be so outspoken. My grandpa calls me Xiao Gao, so you should also call me Xiao Gao."
Aunt Song hesitated: "This...isn't appropriate."
Gao Yang smiled: "Why isn't it suitable? That's it. Grandpa, let's go take a look at our new home."
It was the first time Gao Yishan entered such a high-end villa, so he was naturally full of curiosity. What's more, he also knew that Gao Yang had his own matters to deal with, so he and Aunt Song went to other places to check.
Gao Yang smiled at Su Chun and Lei Jie and said, "Do you still think it's a burden now?"
The two looked at each other and lowered their heads. Lei Jie said, "I'm sorry, Brother Gao, we shouldn't underestimate your ability."
Gao Yang waved his hand: "Are you too polite? Okay, you guys stay here for now. I have to deal with my own affairs, and I'll deal with yours when they're settled."
After saying that, he walked towards Ding Ling: "Director Ding, do you think we should find a room to talk in detail, or go out and find a place?"
Ding Ling walked directly to the door: "Let's go outside and find a hidden place. I want to talk to you. I hope only the two of us know."
Gao Yang immediately left the villa with Ding Ling, and the two of them found a nearby Western restaurant and entered a private room.
After ordering, Ding Ling held a glass of drink and stared at Gao Yang with her big watery eyes: "Hey, why are you so dazed? What have you experienced in going to Chenxiang Valley this time? Don't you want to elaborate?"
Gao Yang shrugged: "What's there to say? It's all in vain."
Ding Ling pursed her lips and said, "Okay, Gao Yang, you still don't want to treat me as a friend. You just keep it secretive when I ask you a random question. It seems that I am being too sentimental to ask you."
"Where is it!"
"Then you plan to tell me?"
"I……"
"Stop me and me, I know you still give face. Go on, Gao Yang, I'm listening, be careful. Although I didn't go, I still want to know how dangerous this Agarwood Valley is."
Khan, this girl is really good at talking. She silenced him before he could even finish a sentence.
Gao Yang was extremely depressed: "Ding Ling, do you really want to hear about the dangers?"
"nonsense!"
"Then why don't you read Ghost Blows Out the Lantern and Tomb Robbery Notes? The stories written in them are more sinister and bizarre, and they also have more storylines. Wouldn't they be much more exciting than my dry narrative?"
Ding Ling glared at him: "You are talking to me about him again. Gao Yang, let me ask you, was it you who broke the Agarwood Valley maze?"
Gao Yang nodded.
Ding Ling frowned: "How on earth do you know so much?"
Gao Yang smiled: "Ding Ling, you are only a few years older than me, but your strength is already at the Hexu realm, and you have also become the arbitration chief. Can you tell me about your journey over the years?"
Ding Ling remained silent. Obviously, she could understand Gao Yang's meaning.
Everyone has their own unknown past and each other’s secrets. If you don’t want others to know, how can you tell them easily?
After pondering for a while, Ding Ling said: "Well, you don't want to say it, and I won't force you to do so. Then I ask you, have you seen Yang Wuji's tomb?"
Gao Yang shook his head: "No."
Ding Ling frowned: "Is the legend of the devil false? There is no Yang Wuji's tomb there at all?"
Gao Yang sighed: "The legend is not necessarily false, there should be tombs, but we retreated before we reached the end."
Ding Ling stared at him: "But you have been gone for three days. It is impossible that you have not gained much from being there for such a long time. After walking for such a long time, you have not suffered any damage. Why are you willing to return? I want to know
, what is it that forces you to return without success?"
Gao Yang said calmly: "I gave in."
Ding Ling felt incredible: "You!"
Gao Yang smiled slightly: "Yes, it's me."
Ding Ling looked at him suspiciously, and the atmosphere in the private room suddenly became a little silent.
At this moment, the waiter knocked on the door, then came in with two steaks, put the steaks down, and then left. Ding Ling locked the door and asked in a solemn voice: "Gao Yang, what is going on? Are you under the influence of Lu?"
Qingfang Zhi specially entered the Agarwood Valley, so Lu Qingfang must have set your sights on getting the legendary Immortal Flower when he asked you to go. If you didn't get it, how could you retreat?"
Gao Yang picked up the fork and knife, crossed each other, and made a sound of iron clanking, and then said calmly: "You know, Director Ding, Lu Qingfang asked me the same question, do you know how I would answer?"
"how to answer?"
Gao Yang said silently: "I only replied that this is a secret, a secret that cannot be told, and no comment!"
Ding Ling was stunned: "That's what you told Lu Qingfang?"
Gao Yang nodded: "That's what I said."
Ding Ling couldn't believe it: "Why don't Lu Qingfang make you mad to death?"
Gao Yang sighed helplessly: "She is very angry and disappointed. I guess she will never want to see me again in the future."
She would rather disappoint Lu Qingfang than say it, so naturally she wouldn't say it to herself either.
Ding Ling rolled her eyes, a little depressed.
At this moment, Gao Yang said to himself: "But I won't blame Fangfang. This is my fault. In order to save her mother, she had to get the Immortal Flower, but I did it for a
I promise, but I can't let her get the Flower of Immortality. To her, I am the biggest obstacle that prevents her mother from living. Let alone being disappointed, it is natural for her to hate me."
When Ding Ling heard this, her face suddenly turned aside: "What did you say?"
Gao Yang frowned: "I don't understand what you mean."
Ding Ling's face was solemn: "You just said that Lu Qingfang was looking for the immortal flower to save her mother?"
Gao Yang nodded: "Yes, as the director of the arbitration bureau, you are always well-informed. This should not be a secret to you."
Ding Ling couldn't help but said after hearing this: "Conspiracy, it is indeed a conspiracy. I will say that there is something wrong with the Lu Group. Even Lu Qingfang lied to you. It seems that they must have an ulterior motive."
Lied to me?
Gao Yang was so confused after hearing this that he didn't care to eat the delicious steak, and immediately asked: "Ding Ling, please explain clearly what is going on."
Ding Ling snorted: "Lu Qingfang's mother has always been a mystery in Tianshi City. Three years ago, she never appeared in Tianshi City again. There are different rumors about her. Some said she was dead, and some said she was dead.
I got sick, and some people said they would move abroad. I later got clues and suspected that the Lu Group was doing something nefarious. Later, I asked people to investigate Lu Qingfang’s father, Lu Dingguo, and then discovered information about Lu Qingfang’s mother. I asked people to check and found that she had had an affair abroad.
I have seen traces of my activities. Although I don’t know what I am doing, I definitely don’t look sick. Gao Yang, you were deceived by Lu Qingfang!”
This news was like a lightning strike, which immediately made Gao Yang's heart tremble and his face turned pale.
Undoubtedly, this blow was too big for Gao Yang. Just now, he had been feeling guilty for rejecting Lu Qingfang, but this woman whom he trusted so much would actually lie to him.
What a great irony!
Gao Yang was stunned for a long time and then said silently: "Ding Ling, is what you said true?"
Ding Ling said calmly: "What I just said is absolutely not false. You can find someone to verify it. If I lie to you, you can annoy me and hate me as much as you want." []
