Chapter 13 Unfathomable Madam Yang
Madam Yang placed her hand around the location of Jiang Ming's face with the dirt on it. Afterward, her expression darkened completely as a murderous aura started surrounding her.
The atmosphere became constricted in one place and breathing was difficult.
Jiang Ming noticed Hong Ling was having a hard time breathing so he shielded her secretly while holding Madam Yang's hand and said, "Mother, I'm afraid we need to change the guard or else I don't even feel like coming home any longer."
And he continued, "To not even get a warm welcome when coming to your own home is pointless. I know everyone says I'm trash with rumors even circulating that I'm a pervert that wanted to violate a flower beauty in the academy but I can't handle the fact that even my own family doesn't believe my innocence."
Jiang Ming showed a depressed face and Hong Ling was in disbelief by his acting. She has seen his arrogant and confident side so to act this pitifully in front of his mother was an unbelievable scene.
Hong Ling sneaked a glance at the guard who turned pale with his legs constantly shaking from fear.
'Good luck, out of everyone you can offend, you decided to offend Jiang Ming who is full of mystery.' Hong Ling prayed inwardly as she was glad that she wasn't in his position.
At the same time, she thanked heaven for being born as a woman with some beauty, otherwise, she could not imagine the time when she sneered at Jiang Ming.
Meanwhile, Madam Yang's aura continued to increase and tapped on Jiang Ming's hand before saying, "Don't worry son, mother will not let you feel isolated anymore. Heck, if you want to then we can move out of this damn house. Your mother had enough of others plotting against you."
Jiang Ming was dumbfounded by Madam Yang's outburst and inwardly he smiled happily. `Awesome, it seems like I can get a new house since staying here with disgusting people would ruin my mood.'
Jiang Ming nodded his head and said, "Mother, let's leave the house already then. We don't need to stay here any longer since I don't have any sense of belonging here either."
Madam Yang ponders for a few minutes before agreeing with Jiang Ming. She turned around to leave Jiang Ming alone and re-enter the house to pack their belongings.
The guard heaved a soft sigh of relief and wanted to flee but Jiang Ming wasn't done with him just yet.
However, before Jiang Ming could make a move, the guard's head suddenly burst open and dropped to the ground. The guard had an expression of relief, almost like he didn't realize that he had been killed already.
Blood started spraying everywhere but Jiang Ming was fast enough to avoid the blood as he held Hong Ling's waist.
Meanwhile, Hong Ling turned pale and she wanted to scream aloud but Jiang Ming covered her mouth with his hand, indicating her to be quiet.
Hong Ling nodded her head with some sweat trickling down her forehead and Jiang Ming slowly released his hand.
Hong Ling raised her finger and pointed at the guard's corpse, "H-He was k-killed by Madam Yang?"
"Who else but my unfathomable Madam Yang? She acted extremely fast where even I couldn't get a chance to act." Jiang Ming praised as he watched the inside of the house, seemingly amazed by Madam Yang's ruthless action.
Her swift and decisive conduct has won Jiang Ming praise that she was not as simple nor fragile as she looked. She can also be fierce and Jiang Ming can confirm one fact already.
"Madam Yang is stronger than Kong Ming by a large margin. No wonder why there is such a sharp contrast between their relationship." Jiang Ming mumbled softly as he got a gist of a hidden secret where even the original Jiang Ming does not notice at all.
"U-Um… Jiang Ming, you're still holding my waist." Hong Ling spoke slowly as she tugged his sleeve slightly to get his attention.
Jiang Ming stopped thinking in his mind and glanced at Hong Ling who was still in his embrace with his arm wrapped around her waist.
Glancing at her rosy lip that still has some saliva hanging around there, Jiang Ming couldn't help himself but kissed her, causing Hong Ling to open her eyes wide in shock and surprise at the sudden action.
Jiang Ming licked her lips slowly before prying her mouth open despite her struggle and invaded the inside of her mouth. Afterward, he used his tongue to slither around hers, sucking her saliva deeply with his hand and continued to pull Hong Ling closer to him.
Hong Ling's eye started to lose focus on the intense kissing as she wrapped her arm around Jiang Ming to keep her balance and allowed Jiang Ming to do as he pleased. She was now his maid and it was her duty to satisfy her master's desire no matter where.
Jiang Ming stopped kissing her when he felt no resistance coming from her as he pulled her back slightly to stare at her face.
Hong Ling's face was beet red as she lowered her head to avoid eye contact with Jiang Ming.
"Are you mad at the sudden kiss?" Jiang Ming asked slowly.
Hong Ling quickly shook her head and mumbled, "I-I'm not mad, just that you didn't give me any moment to prepare myself for the kiss."
Jiang Ming chuckled softly as he wondered if his charm was amazing to the point of taming her. However, he quickly shook his head off from that mindset since being handsome has nothing to do with this cultivation world.
Facial expression isn't important as long as one is strong enough to command respect from others.
"Did you hate the kiss then?" Jiang Ming asked again and continued, "You don't have to lie to me and say you enjoy it if your mind says otherwise."
Hong Ling turned silent as she didn't have an answer yet.
Did she hate him?
The answer is no, but it's a fact that they met for less than a day and have already begun kissing. Sure, she may have used her appearance to gain some reputation but it was always for show and she never really had any intimate contact with others.
"I'm your maid now so no matter what you do with my body, I have no say in it." Hong Ling replied, seemingly in belief that this was the best course of action.
Jiang Ming smiled bitterly at her half-hearted reply and whispered softly in her ear, "Doesn't matter if that's your true intention because sooner or later, you're going to fall for me and it will be you that cannot control herself from me."
Afterward, Jiang Ming stopped holding her waist as he waited for Madam Yang to come out while thinking about their true relationship.
