Chapter 1202: Chapter 1202

When you think about it, Liu Mengting still doesn’t know that I’m her fiancé, and now Tang Xin’s identity has been exposed, so even if I leave here, the engagement won’t just disappear.

Especially since Liu Gaoze knows my background all too well, trying to find him to call off the engagement doesn’t seem to have a high chance of success. Leaving or not seems to be meaningless now.

Once the reluctance in my heart was triggered, Tang Ming found himself seemingly unwilling to leave, truly reluctant to part with the people and things here.

"Ahem, don’t be mad, I was just joking with you guys, didn’t expect you to take it seriously."

After calming down, Tang Ming sat on the sofa with his luggage, grinning as he said, "Rooming with two beauties is a dream come true for many. How could I bear to leave?"

"Haha, joking? Weren’t you about to leave? Now you’re not going?"

Liu Mengting sneered continuously at Tang Ming.

"I’m not leaving! I was just kidding, how about that, wasn’t my acting pretty good?"

Tang Ming grinned shamelessly, leaning back on the sofa: "I have so many businesses in Songlan City, where else could I go?"

"Hahaha, I knew Brother Tang Ming was joking; you really scared me. Brother Tang Ming is invincible and definitely won’t die."

Li Xiaoli immediately laughed.

"So you guys knew I was Tang Ming all along?"

Seeing Li Xiaoli , Tang Ming said speechlessly.

"Yes, yes, if Brother Tang Ming really died, Sister Meng Meng and I would be sad and heartbroken, of course."

Li Xiaoli nodded repeatedly, proudly saying, "We were also joking with you, teasing you. How about that, wasn’t our acting good?"

"Dang it, in the end, I still couldn’t outplay you two."

Tang Ming sighed in frustration, realizing he was pranked after all.

"Hehe, you deserve it, using fake death as a trick, that’s too evil."

Liu Mengting glared at Tang Ming while petting Bai Bai sternly.

"Ahem, just now you said you’d return Bai Bai to me, was that true or not?"

At this point, Tang Ming didn’t think about leaving, eagerly looking at Liu Mengting, hoping to gain more benefits for himself.

"Nice try! Once given to me, it’s mine, I was just teasing you too, how about that, wasn’t my acting good?"

Liu Mengting rolled her eyes, speaking confidently.

Tang Ming almost spat blood, this woman’s acting is indeed top-notch!

Then, Liu Mengting and Li Xiaoli were happy, although they were very angry before, but compared to Tang Ming’s death, the current result was already very perfect.

Just as Tang Ming thought everyone was happy, Shen Yan suddenly sighed.

"Miss Shen, what’s wrong now?"

Tang Ming looked cautiously at Shen Yan, now that this woman knew Tang Xin was him, she seemed to be quite a headache.

"So Tang Ming is Tang Xin, I really am an idiot, only just realizing it, I’ve been so thoroughly deceived by you."

Shen Yan looked at Tang Ming with a face full of resentment.

"I didn’t mean to deceive you, mainly because these two identities serve different purposes and it’s important to keep them secret."

Tang Ming explained awkwardly.

"I understand! So your cultivation has already been restored, right?"

Shen Yan looked at Tang Ming with dim eyes.

Tang Ming nodded, there was no way to hide this.

"Haha, I never thought your cultivation would become so strong, an Eight-star Martial Master, it seems there’s no way I could ever assassinate you."

Shen Yan laughed bitterly, saying with melancholy: "I originally thought you were just a cultivator, but in the Imperial City, I discovered you were also proficient with firearms, truly a versatile talent."

"Thanks for the compliments, actually, I was also an assassin, and a top world-class one, so your assassination methods really couldn’t hurt me at all."

Tang Ming awkwardly rubbed his nose, the reason he never went harsh on Shen Yan was that he never considered her as an opponent, not even in the same league.

"I understand now, it seems I will never have the opportunity to complete the task of killing you, so all I can do now is find a place to end my life." As she finished speaking, Shen Yan got up and headed towards the door.

"What the heck, what do you mean?"

Tang Ming’s face changed drastically, promptly getting up to block Shen Yan’s path.

"You should know the reason I became an assassin wasn’t for money, it was purely for a belief. So when I entered this line of work, I vowed that if I encountered a target I couldn’t kill, I would end it myself."

Shen Yan looked at Tang Ming with a complex expression, telling her own story.

"Are you serious? If you can’t kill someone, you commit suicide, what kind of reasoning is that?"

Tang Ming looked at Shen Yan dumbfoundedly, but thinking about Shen Yan owning luxury cars and houses, she really wasn’t the type short on money. Could it be that being an assassin was truly for some so-called belief?

"Even if I don’t commit suicide, I would shave my head and become a monk, withdrawing from the Jianghu, never seeing anyone again, you all take care."

Shen Yan rubbed her eyes, firmly stating her position.

"Isn’t that a bit too much?"

Liu Mengting and Li Xiaoli looked at Shen Yan worriedly, now realizing that Shen Yan was actually planning to kill Tang Ming!

But after interacting for so long, not only didn’t they dislike Shen Yan, they even enjoyed spending time with this mature, elder sister figure.

"No need to persuade me, my mind is made up, and my vow cannot be broken, we’ll meet again in another life."

Shen Yan shook her head, pushed Tang Ming aside, and started to walk out.

"Hey, you don’t have to go this far! How about you beat me up, and then I’ll beg you for mercy, that way it proves you have the ability to kill me, don’t go become a monk or commit suicide, okay?"

Tang Ming swiftly pulled Shen Yan back, proposing a very feasible suggestion.

"Well, I suppose that could work."

Shen Yan thought for a moment, nodding unsurely: "But..."

"Nothing buts, go ahead, come on, my heroine."

Seeing Shen Yan relent, Tang Ming immediately puffed up his chest, ready to take a beating.

"Then I won’t hold back?"

Shen Yan looked uncertainly at Tang Ming.

"Don’t be polite, come on!"

"Alright, then I won’t be polite."

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Yan immediately punched Tang Ming in the stomach, followed by a round of punches and kicks.

Tang Ming cooperated by lying on the ground and screaming in pain.

"Oh dear, Brother Tang Ming’s being beaten so badly, it’s the first time I’ve seen him ."

Li Xiaoli looked at Tang Ming with a sympathetic face.

"Serves him right, who asked them to trick us, serves him right to be beaten."

Liu Mengting muttered viciously, feeling quite satisfied.
