Ling Tian moved into the courtyard next to Wang Bingxia's house that very day. The small courtyard was not large, but its environment was elegant, and Ling Tian was very satisfied with the living conditions here.
After all, the Taoist temple where he lived in the mountains had nothing.
The next morning, Ling Tian went to knock on the door next door. Wang Bingxia's mother, Gao Yalian, was very happy to see Ling Tian arrive.
"Oh, little Ling is here, have you had breakfast?"
"Yes, Auntie, I've already eaten."
Ling Tian felt a little flustered by Gao Yalian's warmth, but his heart was filled with warmth. As an orphan who had lived deep in the mountains for a long time, what he lacked most was maternal love.
Although his sixth master was also a woman, his sixth master's affection for him was more of a debt of gratitude for his teachings.
"Come in quickly, Bingxia is also at home."
Gao Yalian personally led Ling Tian into the house. The two of them went to the home gym, where Wang Bingxia was doing yoga.
She was wearing a pink yoga outfit that perfectly outlined her figure. Her long neck and fair skin, illuminated by the sunlight filtering through the window, appeared so elegant and charming.
Ling Tian was momentarily stunned.
Gao Yalian coughed, "Bingxia, see who's here."
Wang Bingxia stopped her movements and saw Ling Tian's gaze. She also blushed slightly.
"Bingxia, I need to trouble you with something."
"Go ahead, what can I help you with?"
"I want to ask you to go shopping with me..."
As soon as Ling Tian said this, Wang Bingxia's face turned red instantly, while Gao Yalian on the side was very happy.
"That's great, this is a good thing. It's good for young people to go shopping more and communicate more to deepen their feelings.
What's the point of staying cooped up in Wangjiazhuang every day?" Gao Yalian fanned the flames, as if afraid her daughter wouldn't get married.
"Uh... it's like this, I've been on the mountain for a long time and know very little about the outside world. I want to go out and see the world, and then it will be convenient for me to make the right decisions regarding the pharmaceutical factory."
Ling Tian had been on the mountain for years and had only come down a few times. In fact, his main way of understanding things below the mountain was through the internet.
Every day, he would spend an hour online reading the news, and then his fifth master, Gu Tianxi, would analyze the deeper meanings behind these news reports for him.
Therefore, from a macro perspective, Ling Tian had a general understanding of the outside world. However, his understanding of trivial matters like food, clothing, housing, and transportation was still somewhat biased.
That's why he planned to go out and shop properly to see the world, and he wanted Wang Bingxia to accompany him so he wouldn't make a fool of himself.
Wang Bingxia nodded with a blush, "Okay, I'll go with you!"
Gao Yalian quickly said, "Go, go, you must go, have fun!
By the way, stay for a few more days, don't rush back, and stay overnight in Jiangshan City..."
Wangjiazhuang was more than an hour's drive from the city. Almost every family in Wangjiazhuang had several residences in Jiangshan City. They usually lived in the city and only returned for important matters.
Ling Tian was invited into the living room, and Gao Yalian brought many homemade small pastries to Ling Tian, then quietly ran back to her daughter's room.
Wang Bingxia had just finished showering and was changing clothes when Gao Yalian entered the room as if she were a thief.
"Mom, what are you doing?" Wang Bingxia was startled.
Gao Yalian closed the door as if she were a thief.
"Daughter, Mom tells you, this Ling is a very outstanding young man. Your grandfather's judgment this time is impeccable! You must seize this opportunity."
"Oh, Mom, how can you say that..." Wang Bingxia was both shy and angry.
"Well, you're a grown woman now, and there are some things Mom can't control, but Mom has to remind you to take precautions..."
"Oh, you're annoying!"
The mother and daughter playfully bickered and laughed together.
Half an hour later, Ling Tian met Wang Bingxia. Wang Bingxia was wearing a red tracksuit, her long hair tied into a ponytail, exuding youthful vitality.
Ling Tian was also wearing a casual tracksuit today. Their outfits matched perfectly, truly a match made in heaven. Gao Fenglian liked them more and more as she looked at them.
The two of them went out to the front yard garage. Two cars were parked in the garage at this time: a Mercedes-Benz SUV and a Wuling Hongguang. However, this Wuling Hongguang was pink and had Hello Kitty drawn on it.
"Ling Tian, which car do you want to take?"
Ling Tian pointed to the Wuling Hongguang, "This one."
"Can you drive it?"
Ling Tian nodded, "I'll drive!" As he spoke, he elegantly opened the passenger door and invited Wang Bingxia to get in.
Although Ling Tian had been on the mountain, he knew how to drive, and his driving skills were excellent.
Ling Tian's fourth master was a top assassin. He told Ling Tian that driving was a very important skill, whether for tracking a target or for escaping after a mission, cars were indispensable.
So, he often took Ling Tian to the farm at the foot of the mountain and the winding mountain roads below the mountain, where they practiced driving with tractors and even an old Wuling Hongguang.
Moreover, when he went down the mountain, several masters had given him many documents, including a driver's license.
Ling Tian could tell that although this car appeared low-key and cheap on the outside, its internal modifications were extraordinary.
The car had been fitted with alloy wheels, reinforced tires with enhanced grip, and even anti-collision beams had been added inside.
The two of them drove onto the road, and Ling Tian only then learned that this car was bought by Wang Bingxia with her allowance.
Wang Qingtian was worried that his daughter might be in danger, so he secretly paid for a comprehensive modification of the car, both inside and out.
Except for the engine and the exterior shell, almost everything else had been replaced.
On the surface, it was a Wuling Hongguang, but its performance in all aspects was not inferior to those imported luxury cars.
Ling Tian started the car, and the vehicle drove very smoothly. He only used one foot to control the accelerator and barely touched the brakes. Wang Bingxia could hardly feel the jolts when the car accelerated or decelerated.
Shortly after leaving Wangjiazhuang, the roar of an engine suddenly sounded from behind, and then a black Maserati sports car caught up from behind.
The Maserati drove parallel to Ling Tian's car, and the driver rolled down the window.
"Oh, isn't this Bingxia? Are you going on a date with your boyfriend?"
The driver of the Maserati was wearing sunglasses and had an arrogant expression. However, when he said this, his tone was filled with mockery.
"Wang Zixuan, what business is it of yours!" Wang Bingxia retorted unceremoniously.
"Hey, our grandfather has such poor judgment. I heard he's going to marry you off to a stinky Taoist priest, haha, Bingxia, you're too miserable!"
After saying that, the man stepped on the accelerator, and the Maserati instantly shot ahead of the Wuling Hongguang.
