So Pure, So Flirtatious

Chapter 443: Old Woman’s Identity

“What?” The other party asked.

“I’m asking what you did you say?” Yang Ming felt that his head went a little bit numb.

“Nothing. I have a granddaughter.” The other party said.

“You have a granddaughter; so be it. I don’t have the time to deal with you. Tell me what you did to Lan Ling. I want to see her!” Yang Ming found the situation helpless. It seems the person in opposition is slightly abnormal in her mind.

“Lan Ling is my granddaughter; what can I do to her?” The other party seemed to speak normally, “She’s doing well in Miaojiang. You can’t see her for a while.”

” Ah ?” Yang Ming was completely dumbfounded this time. After listening to the other party’s words, he was petrified as he looked at the person in front of him and said, “What did you say? Lan Ling is your granddaughter?”

“Yes, is it surprising?” The other party slowly took off the mask on her face. Then, she threw it out of her hand and it disappeared out of sight. Even Yang Ming’s eyes couldn’t capture where the mask went. It was as though it disappeared into thin air.

Yang Ming took two steps back abruptly, staring coldly at the old woman in front of him. “Do you have any evidence to prove that Lan Ling is your granddaughter? In other words, you should prove that you are Lan Ling’s grandmother? How do you want me to believe you?”

“Why would I lie to you?” The old woman was surprised. “Why don’t you believe me?”

“How can I believe you? How do I know if this isn’t another one of your dirty tricks?” Yang Ming asked coldly.

“Look at this yourself.” The old woman took out an envelope out of nowhere and threw it to Yang Ming.

Yang Ming took the envelope and he quickly opened up the envelope! It’s Lan Ling’s handwriting! Yang Ming was emotionally stirred up as he could recognize Lan Ling’s handwriting.

“Yang Ming:

“My grandma had to go to Song Jiang to do something. I originally wanted to go, but now it is an important stage for my cultivation. My grandmother wouldn’t let me out. There is no way to go about it. I can only write a few words to you telling you about how much I miss you.

“I miss you very much. Almost every night when I sleep, I dream of you in every one of my dreams. I dream of the days when both of us were together. I will cultivate my voodoo arts as soon as possible, and then I will return to your side. We will never be separated again.

“My grandmother is kind and very easy to get along with. Don’t you make her angry!

“Your Ling Ling. ”

After reading the letter written by Lan Ling, Yang Ming was raised his head and asked with some doubts, “Are you really Lan Ling’s grandmother?”

“Authentic as it seems.” The old woman nodded. “Do you believe me this time?”

“It’s still a little unbelievable…” Yang Ming smiled bitterly. The letter mentioned that grandmother’s temper is kind and she is easy to get along with. How can I not see it at all? She threatened me and said that Lan Ling was in her hands, and then she forced me to die. Is this easy to get along with? A good temper?

“Is it because you are angry about the matter just now?” The old woman asked with a smile.

“I’m not angry. I just find it a little inexplicable.” Yang Ming said the truth, “So, I don’t quite believe that you are Lan Ling’s grandmother.”

“You are so smart. How can you not think of it?” The old woman shook her head. “Well, I don’t need to be inexplicable. I’ll explain to you!”

“I hope you aren’t lying to me.” Yang Ming nodded. In fact, after reading Lan Ling’s letter, Yang Ming also believed that this person in front of him was Lan Ling’s grandmother. However, the previous incident was too strange; he couldn’t accept it all of a sudden.

“Ling Ling, this child, is too young. I’m afraid that she will be deceived. So, through this opportunity, I wanted to test your character.” The old woman said with a smile, “I wanted to see if you loved Ling Ling or not, and to what extent is your love. So, I crafted such an ad-hoc method to test you!

If you didn’t come today, I would have been very disappointed. If you didn’t care about Ling Ling, then I wouldn’t just let Ling Ling be sad in the future…”

“What do you mean? If I didn’t come, would you break us apart?” Yang Ming asked.

“Listen to me… but you asked a good question as well.” The old woman continued, “Why should I break both of you apart? I can just cause an accidental death directly! With my voodoo, the hospital wouldn’t be able to identify the cause of death…”

Yang Ming’s body had goosebumps… Fortunately, his feelings for Lan Ling were authentic, otherwise, he wouldn’t even know how he died…

“So, I’m very happy that you came. It proved that you still had Ling Ling in your heart.” The old lady paused and said, “Second, after you came, I wanted to take a look. Although you love Ling Ling, how much were you willing to sacrifice for Ling Ling?

So, I let you make a decision between you and Ling Ling. Out of two people, only one can live… But even if you chose to let Ling Ling die, I wouldn’t have hurt you. I would allow you to leave safely. However, you would never be able to see Ling Ling again. The letter that Ling Ling wrote to you, I would have disposed of it.

But your answer made me very satisfied, especially when you chose to let Ling Ling live without thinking, which makes me very happy! Since you are willing to sacrifice to such an extent, then I won’t interfere with the matter between you and Ling Ling.

However, this makes me very reluctant to give Ling Ling to you. That is because I hoped that Ling Ling’s man is an affectionate and truthful person, but I don’t want a boorish fellow! Fortunately, when I ask you to die immediately, you didn’t agree. But, you insisted on seeing Ling Ling. You could only rest after her escape!

Don’t think that I didn’t know what you thought at the time. You wanted to wait for Ling Ling to escape from danger, and then fight with me in a suicidal manner, right? ”

Yang Ming broke into a sweat… It turned out that the previous matter was a test. Moreover, it was a well-planned and consolidated one! If I’m not careful, I might worsen the impression of Lan Ling’s grandmother toward me!

“I thought so earlier, but then I didn’t later on…” Yang Ming said with a little embarrassment as he scratched his head.

“What did you think?” The old woman was curious.

“Later, I thought that you were neurotic… Please don’t be angry. Your tone and expression were a bit…” Yang Ming said.

“…” The old woman was silent for a while. “You, kid, dare to say that I’m neurotic?”

“I’m just kidding…” This time Yang Ming didn’t dare to be so arrogant. He didn’t want to continue to entangle on this issue, so he changed the topic, “Right, how did you know I would go to the house where I lived with Lan Ling?”

“I visited it recently every day.” The old woman explained, “I wanted to see if you were an affectionate and truthful person. If you didn’t even go there, that means you have forgotten about Ling Ling. I wouldn’t come to you again.”

Yang Ming’s secretly commented on his good luck! I almost let an opportunity slip away from Lan Ling!

“Alright, I trust you. You are Lan Ling’s grandmother. Greetings, grandma!” Yang Ming gave a respectful bow to the old woman, and even the name changed from the “informal you” to the “courteous you.”

“Well, that’s right.” Lan Ling’s grandmother smiled and said, “Come with me. I still have something to tell you.”

After that, Lan Ling’s grandmother touched the stone beside Yang Ming’s body for a few moments, and suddenly the stone monument turned silently to the side, revealing a square underground passage!

“A secret path!” Yang Ming couldn’t help but get shocked at the situation.

“Yes, this was made by Lan Ling’s grandfather… but Lan Ling is following her mother’s surname. So in our family, Lan Ling should call her grandfather. He built this secret passage.” Lan Ling’s grandmother explained.

“Why didn’t Lan Ling call you Grandma?” Yang Ming asked curiously.

“She called me such since she was young, she was so accustomed to it. She couldn’t change it. But after Lan Ling was born, she had never seen her grandfather.” Lan Ling’s grandmother explained.

Yang Ming nodded and didn’t go deep into this issue. He followed Lan Ling’s grandmother and walked toward the secret passage below them.

When Yang Ming entered the secret path, Lan Ling’s grandmother did something out of nowhere, and the stone slab over the top of Yang Ming’s head quickly closed up. Then, the secret passage lit up gradually.

“How are there no candles here? Is there electricity here?” Yang Ming found it odd. “The secret paths on the TV are all lit up by candles, right?”

“In a strict sense, this isn’t a secret path. It’s just a stronghold of the Lan Family in Song Jiang. It was built in 1986. How could there be no electricity?” Lan Ling’s grandmother said as she walked, “I heard that you graduated from Red Flag Junior High School.”
