Chapter 44 Ye Ling grabbed something she shouldn't have~ (1/2)

Four o'clock in the morning.

Ye Ling and Ye Jinyan, bundled up in thick down jackets, got out of the car and went to a villa, leaving Zhao Xin and Wen Yanchen behind.

Wen Yanchen looked at the two of them hidden in the darkness outside the car. He didn't speak to Zhao Xin, but instead chose to close his eyes and rest.

Although I took a nap in the space, I'm still a bit tired and want to lie down in bed and sleep.

Zhao Xin dared not close his eyes; the thought of the bizarre creatures that had attacked them on the way here sent chills down his spine.

These three people all possessed legendary superpowers, making it exceptionally easy for them to kill those bizarre creatures. He envied them while also reminding himself that if he left the capital alone now, he might not survive a day.

He learned from Ye Ling's inner voice that he was a lucky charm, that he would awaken superpowers, and that he would become the base leader of a small base in the future.

He is in a dilemma. Leaving the capital is dangerous, but it could make him a superior person.

But what if? What if his lucky charm effect stops working? What if he doesn't meet the benefactor Ye Ling mentioned? What if he doesn't awaken his special ability...?

But if he didn't leave, if he stubbornly followed Ye Ling and the others, he wouldn't have become the base leader, wouldn't have become a superior person, and wouldn't have been admired by Ye Ling.

Indeed, he sensed from Ye Ling's inner thoughts that she admired him; she looked at him with starry eyes.

Thinking of the way Ye Ling looked at him, he knew what he had to do!

Ye Ling and Ye Jinyan stood to the side of the gate and whispered, "Third Brother, are we here to steal something?"

Ye Jinyan: "..."

He gently tapped her head and lowered his voice, "What are you thinking about? Would we do something like that?"

Ye Ling touched the spot where he had knocked on her, pouted, and hid behind him. [But running around in front of a dark villa at this hour, acting so suspiciously, really looks like they're trying to steal something.]

Ye Jinyan led her to the wall and whispered, "Let's climb over the wall and get in."

Ye Ling: "???"

[They still say they weren't stealing, but they climbed over the wall!]

Ye Jinyan grabbed her hand and jumped onto the wall, then easily jumped down.

Wow, that was so exciting! I actually snuck over the wall with a pro in the middle of the night!

Excitement shone in her eyes; this was something she had never done before, it was so thrilling.

Ye Jinyan's lips curled up slightly, and then he led her through a maze of twists and turns to the back kitchen of the villa, before climbing in through the window.

The house was quiet, but Ye Ling sensed that someone lived there; she could hear faint snoring in the distance.

Ye Jinyan pulled her into a room, then squatted down and groped around for a bit. To Ye Ling's surprise, he pulled a panel off the floor.

[It's actually a basement passageway!]

The two of them quietly went downstairs, and Ye Jinyan closed the panel again before leading her down the steps.

Wow~

Looking at the glittering basement before her, Ye Ling rubbed her eyes, then excitedly pounced on it: "Gold bars! So many gold bars!"

Ye Jinyan looked at her with doting eyes from behind: "Put all of these into your space."

Ye Ling picked up a thick, long gold bar, wanting to take a bite to see if it was real.

Ye Jinyan reached out his long arm from behind her and pulled her into his arms, snatching the gold bar from her hand: "Why do you put everything in your mouth? Aren't you disgusted?"

Ye Ling lost her footing and fell directly into his arms, but fortunately Ye Jinyan held her tightly and prevented her from slipping.

She grabbed a part of Ye Jinyan's body and stood up, complaining, "I've never seen such a thick gold bar before. I've seen many people on TV bite gold to see if it's real or fake. I want to try it too."

"Hmm~"
