Chapter 282 He is a villain
Chen Yan and Pei Ling have been searching for many days based on the clues provided by Wu Menglin, but unfortunately, they still have no news about Ling Jiuan and others.
This made Pei Ling feel a little confused.
"Is this Miss Wu trying to play a trick on us?"
Pei Ling looked at Chen Yan, with a hint of dissatisfaction and doubt in his tone.
Chen Yan frowned. He knew Wu Menglin very well and didn't believe that she would deliberately deceive them.
However, he also understood that Pei Ling's concerns were not unreasonable.
After all, they had spent so much time and energy and still got nothing.
"Then go to the Wu family and ask clearly."
Chen Yan said in a deep voice that he decided to go find Wu Menglin in person to find out the truth of the matter.
The two quickly returned to the Wu family and found Wu Menglin.
When Wu Menglin saw them coming back, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
"Mr. Chen, Miss Pei Ling, why are you back?"
Wu Menglin asked, a hint of concern in her tone.
"Ms. Wu, we have been searching for many days based on the clues you provided, but there is still no progress."
Chen Yan said bluntly.
"We want to know if there is anything else you haven't told us?"
When Wu Menglin heard this, a hint of embarrassment appeared on her face.
She knew that her previous concealment might have caused them trouble.
So she took a deep breath and decided to confess everything.
"Actually, I didn't tell you the whole truth before."
Wu Menglin said.
"Jiu'an and the others went to the Savage Beast Forest because the senior in the back mountain gave them a magic weapon. However, that senior also warned them that the Savage Beast Forest was full of dangers, and even with the magic weapon, they might not be safe. The reason I didn't tell you this was because I was afraid that you would blindly go to the Savage Beast Forest to take risks."
Chen Yan and Pei Ling looked at each other and understood Wu Menglin's good intentions.
They knew that Wu Menglin was thinking about them and didn't want to put them in danger.
"Then what should we do now?"
Pei Ling asked, she looked at Wu Menglin, waiting for her advice.
"I will continue to inquire about the situation in the Savage Beast Forest, and I will also try to contact Jiuan and the others."
Wu Menglin said.
"You can stay here first and wait for my news. If there is any progress, I will tell you immediately."
Although Chen Yan was somewhat dissatisfied with Wu Menglin's previous concealment, he also knew that Wu Menglin had good intentions and did not want them to take risks.
Therefore, he had no choice but to agree to Wu Menglin's proposal and decided to wait for news at Wu's house.
Wu Menglin looked at Chen Yan and Pei Ling and explained it again.
"You two are friends of Jiuan and Young Master Lei. They have done a favor to our Wu family, and Jiuan is also a good friend of mine. You two can rest assured. I also care about their safety, so I am not just perfunctory when I ask about their news."
Her tone was sincere and firm, making both Chen Yan and Pei Ling feel her sincerity and concern.
They knew that Wu Menglin was trying her best to help them and to protect the safety of Ling Jiuan and others.
"Ms. Wu, we understand your intention."
Chen Yan said.
"We will wait for your news here, and we also hope that you can find Jiuan and the others as soon as possible."
Pei Ling also nodded. She looked at Wu Menglin with gratitude in her eyes.
"Thank you, Miss Wu. We know you are thinking about us and Jiuan and the others. We will wait patiently for your news."
Wu Menglin smiled and nodded. She was grateful for Chen Yan and Pei Ling's understanding and support.
She knew that the most important thing now was to unite as one and work together to find the whereabouts of Ling Jiuan and others.
So, the three of them began to divide the work and cooperate.
Wu Menglin was responsible for inquiring about the situation in the Savage Beast Forest and contacting Ling Jiuan and others; Chen Yan and Pei Ling were responsible for waiting for news at the Wu family and were ready to set out to find Ling Jiuan and others at any time.
During the three days of waiting for news at the Wu family, Chen Yan felt really bored.
He couldn't calm down, always thinking about the safety of Ling Jiuan and others, and the difficulties they might encounter.
In order to relieve his restlessness, he decided to practice in the guest room to improve his strength.
Pei Ling saw Chen Yan practicing in the guest room, so he walked in with a smile.
She looked at Chen Yan and asked teasingly.
"Are you still angry?"
Chen Yan curled his lips. He was indeed a little dissatisfied with Lei Tingyi.
He knew that the reason why Lei Tingyi kept him in Fog City was to guard against him so that he would not interfere with the relationship between Ling Jiuan and Lei Tingyi.
Chen Yan felt very uncomfortable with the feeling of being treated as a love rival.
"Lei Tingyi, this villain, treated me as a love rival. He deliberately left me in Fog City just to guard against me."
Chen Yan complained, his tone revealing a hint of dissatisfaction and helplessness.
Pei Ling smiled when he heard this.
She understood Chen Yan's feelings, but she also knew that Lei Tingyi's actions were not unreasonable.
After all, in that situation, Lei Tingyi needed to ensure Ling Jiuan's safety while also avoiding any possible interference and misunderstandings.
"Okay, don't be angry."
Pei Ling comforted.
"The most important thing for us now is to find Jiuan and the others and ensure their safety. After we find them, you can have a good chat with Lei Tingyi and explain the relationship between you two."
Chen Yan nodded, he knew Pei Ling was right.
The most important thing now is to find Ling Jiuan and others, instead of getting angry and complaining here.
Three days later, Wu Menglin finally received news about Ling Jiuan and others.
She hurried into Chen Yan and Pei Ling's guest room with a hint of anxiety and worry on her face.
"Mr. Chen, Miss Pei Ling, I just received news that Lei Tingyi brought Ling Jiuan back to Lei Xiao Sect."
Wu Menglin said, with a hint of uneasiness in her tone.
Upon hearing the news, Chen Yan was speechless.
He didn't expect that Lei Tingyi would actually take Ling Jiuan directly back to Lei Xiao Sect instead of coming to Lingzhou to meet up with them.
This made him feel a little disappointed and helpless.
"This villain is really unreasonable!"
Chen Yan cursed angrily, his mood becoming irritable.
Pei Ling looked at Chen Yan and patted his shoulder gently, trying to calm him down.
She knew that Chen Yan's dissatisfaction with Lei Tingyi had accumulated to the extreme, and what he needed now was an outlet to vent.
"Don't be angry, Chen Yan."
Pei Ling comforted.
"Now that we know their whereabouts, it's better than knowing nothing. We can go to the Lei Xiao Sect to find them and find out the truth of the matter."
Chen Yan nodded, he knew Pei Ling was right.
But he just couldn't accept it.
This Lei Tingyi, you should be on guard against him, right?
When he finds Ling Jiuan, I will definitely trip him up, to justify his being so wary of me.
