Chapter 109 - Since You’re Desperate

Exiting Meng Xue's room after curing her, Lee Tao informed Meng Lin about her current condition.

"I have cured Meng Xue already, but like I said to the other two, you should brew some medicinal herb soup for her to drink." Lee Tao said.

"Thank you, Nephew Lee Tao." Meng Ling showed a grateful look as he cupped his fist.

"If Nephew Lee Tao ever needs some help from this old man, then I will do my utmost effort to complete it." 

Lee Tao nodded his head.

"Meng Xue had just woken up now, so you should head inside to tell her what had occurred the last few days." 

"O-Of course… I won't see you out then, Nephew Lee Tao."

With that said, Meng Lin headed inside the room whereas Lee Tao wrapped his arms around Tang Lingling.

Even though it was easy to cure them, the meticulous work and precise control of his profound qi had exhausted him.

His current cultivation base was still not up to par to do something this tedious.

"Young Master, are you alright?" Tang Lingling asked in concern as she lifted him up with her strength.

"Yeah, I'm fine… just make sure Yu Xiuying doesn't come and attack me." Lee Tao mumbled.

Tang Lingling raised an eyebrow.

"Why would Instructor Yu Xiuying attack you?"

"Oh, you know how talented I am in provoking people. Not even she can be spared from my glib tongue." 

"Young Master… you should really learn to watch your mouth. Didn't you lecture those males in our classroom previously? How come you couldn't do it yourself?" 

Lee Tao twitched his mouth.

Never did he expect the so-called lecture he said in the classroom would now be used against him.

"Whatever, just carry me away… That feisty woman would soon come out and capture me." Lee Tao rushed her.

Seeing how urgent he sounded, Tang Lingling decided to ask her questions later as she dragged him away from the Meng Clan.

Alas, with her movement being restricted by Lee Tao, it was only a matter of time before Yu Xiuying caught up to them.

"Stop moving, Tang Lingling." Yu Xiuying shouted from behind. 

"Your Young Master and I still have some unfinished business to do." She added.

Tang Lingling was caught in a dilemma. 

'Sigh, Young Master Lee Tao can never stop finding trouble…' Tang Lingling sighed inwardly as she stood in between them.

"Apologies Instructor Yu Xiuying, but my Young Master is currently exhausted from curing three patients in one day. Please allow him to rest before you look for him again." Tang Lingling apologized humbly.

Meanwhile, Lee Tao secretly gave her a thumbs up for her swift rejection in a polite way.

'Hehe, so what if you caught up to me for vengeance? I still have my top-notch bodyguard protecting me.' Lee Tao laughed inwardly.

However, his victory moment was only short lived as Yu Xiuying opened her mouth to speak.

"Your Young Master had the courage to ask me to show him my underwear. Are you sure you still want to protect him?" Yu Xiuying crossed her arms as she glared at Tang Lingling.

"M-My Young Master did what?!" 

"Your Young Master is a perverted man, and I bet he demanded to see your underwear as well, right?" 

Tang Lingling showed a disappointed look as she stared at Yu Xiuying.

Yu Xiuying had thought Tang Lingling's look of disappointment was that she finally figured out Lee Tao's true nature.

However, that wasn't even close to what Tang Lingling was thinking.

'Young Master would rather see Instructor Yu Xiuying's underwear than mine… Why doesn't he just ask me instead?' Tang Lingling cried inwardly.

Tilting her head back to see Lee Tao trying to act weak, she heaved a soft sigh.

"You can have a chat with my Young Master…" Tang Lingling said as she left them alone.

Meanwhile, Lee Tao was dumbfounded as he watched Tang Lingling leave him alone.

'What happened to the top-notched bodyguard?' Lee Tao screamed inwardly. 

Just as he was about to run to catch up to Tang Lingling, his shoulder was latched on by Yu Xiuying.

"Lee Tao, we still have to discuss something, right?" Yu Xiuying asked with a lovely smile on her face.

"Can't you take a joke?"

"Oh, this will be a great joke." 

After that, Yu Xiuying dragged Lee Tao to a hidden corner as she concealed the area with a spatial barrier.

"What do you want?" Lee Tao asked as he was cornered by her. 

"What do I want?" Yu Xiuying raised her tone as she glared at him. 

"I want to know the cause of their illness and that tiny worm that was inside of Meng Xue's body." 

"I already told you. I will not tell you unless-"

Suddenly, Lee Tao paused his words as he showed a disbelief expression.

Heck, he was baffled completely when Yu Xiuying suddenly took off the strings in her pants and revealed her black lace underwear to him.

Her smooth and long legs were in full views as Lee Tao could tell how much of a beauty she was.

Not to mention, the black lace underwear was like a teasing show since the fabric simply covered the most important part of her body.

"Seen enough yet?" Yu Xiuying asked as she felt herself going completely crazy for doing such a shameless thing to her student.

A few seconds went by and Lee Tao hadn't answered her question as he simply admired the beautiful scenery in front of him.

Although most of his demands were merely a joke and a way to stop her from asking questions, he had never expected that she would really show it to him.

Yu Xiuying gnashed her teeth as she no longer waited for him to reply.

She tried to pull her pants back up, until Lee Tao suddenly launched toward her.

Wrapping his arms around her waist, Lee Tao whispered sweetly, "Since you are this desperate for knowledge, then I don't think this is going overboard." 

He then kissed her on the lips as he pulled her closer to him.
