Tan Lingyin said he was possessed.
Tang Tianyuan felt as if there was something in his throat, unable to get it out nor swallow it down. He really wanted to knock some sense into this girl, but he couldn’t bear to see her so panic-stricken.
In desperation, Tang Tianyuan had no choice but to take Tan Lingyin to find Zheng Shaofeng.
Tan Lingyin followed behind him cautiously. Feeling as if he was covered with a layer of gloom, like an invisible fog. It must be caused by mental abnormalities after being bewitched by evil spirits.
After finding Zheng Shaofeng, Tang Tianyuan said, “Brother Zheng, please tell Yinyin who I am.”
The corner of Zheng Shaofeng’s mouth twitched when he heard Tang Tianyuan address Tan Lingyin as ‘Yinyin’. He looked at Tan Lingyin, who looked worried while standing behind Tang Tianyuan. Zheng Shaofeng couldn’t comprehend the hell the two of them were playing at.
“You don’t know who you are?” Zheng Shaofeng asked back.
“You tell her directly, am I Tang Tianyuan?”
Zheng Shaofeng glanced at Tan Lingyin again. She was pointing to her head with her finger as she glanced at Tang Tianyuan. Her meaning was that Tang Tianyuan had some mental issues.
Zheng Shaofeng quickly understood what was going on. He covered his stomach and laughed, “Can’t believe you’d have this day!”
Tang Tianyuan could no longer remain calm. He crossed his arms and looked at Zheng Shaofeng as he warned, “Are you testing my patience?”
Zheng Shaofeng trembled. “Okay! Okay! You win!” After he spoke, he walked over, grabbed Tang Tianyuan’s shoulders, and made her turn. The two faced Tan Lingyin.
“Tan meizi, my apologies. I lied to you earlier under this kid’s pleading. My real name is actually Zheng Shaofeng. This,” Zheng Shaofeng pointed to the person beside him, “is the famous Tang Tianyuan.”
Tang Tianyuan’s expression softened a little.
Tan Lingyin’s expression looked as if she was seeing a ghost.
“Yinyin?” Tang Tianyuan tentatively called her, and he walked towards her, “I’m sorry, I really did…”
“Don’t come any closer!” Tan Lingyin suddenly took a step back. She looked at him warily.
Tang Tianyuan felt a pain in his heart, “Yinyin, listen to me.”
“Don’t come here,” Tan Lingyin shook her head and backed away again. Her mind was in a mess now. Countless pictures flashed past, with a plethora of things to tackle, she clutched her head in pain. “I need to calm down.”
After speaking, she hugged her head and ran away.
Tang Tianyuan frowned as he watched her departing back. However, he did not catch up to her. He needs to give her some time to accept this fact.
Zheng Shaofeng bumped his arm, gloating at his misfortune. “Hehe! You screw up, didn’t you?”
Tang Tianyuan gave him a sideways look with a half-smile. “If I really ‘screw this up’, I must find someone to screw up too.”
Zheng Shaofeng stepped back in horror, keeping a distance from him.
Tang Tianyuan thought of something and asked, “What about Zhu Dacong, how did you deal with him?”
“Locked up. It’s up to you.”
Tang Tianyuan nodded. “The crime of taking hostages can be big or small. It just depends on whether the hostages. Whether they and their families want to mediate or pursue them.”
Zheng Shaofeng was bewildered. “Are you discussing criminal law with me?”
Tang Tianyuan silently sighed. “I don’t know if Zhu Dacong can escape his fate.”
This time, it was Zheng Shaofeng’s turn to be weirded out. He couldn’t help but step forward and feel Tang Tianyuan’s head. However, before his palm touched the skin on Tang Tianyuan’s forehead, it was swatted away.
Zheng Shaofeng withdrew his hand and said, “Now I suspect that Tan meizi’s worry is right, your mind is not in the right place. That Tan Qingchen was not injured in Zhu Dacong’s hands, so you don’t really have to drive him to a dead end, right? After all, Zhu Dacong is the son of the prefect of Jinan, at least spare his little life. Everyone can live peacefully on the surface, don’t you think?”
Tang Tianyuan waved his hand, “This matter is beyond my control. As I said, it depends on the wishes of the hostage and their family members. Do you want to know who Tan Qingchen is?”
“You really are possessed.”
“…” Tang Tianyuan was not angry and asked, “Do you remember Tian Qi?”
“What kind of bull question is that?… I can still remember when we were known as the ‘Four Gongzi’ of the capital, those were the days,” Zheng Shaofeng recalled, feeling a little emotional, “Later, that rascal Tian Qi turned out to be a girl and later became the Empress. And now you’ve got Tan meizi. That little marquis should have traveled around the world and seen many beauties by now. It’s just me left, the poor ol’ me, who hadn’t even found a confidante.”
Tang Tianyuan explained, “What I mean is, do you remember that Tian Qi lost a younger brother?”
“Of course I remember. It happened when she was quite young. I felt so bad for her, so I accompanied her to Liaodong to try to find her brother. After so many years, it’d be impossible now—” Zheng Shaofeng suddenly stopped, his eyes widened, and he looked at Tang Tianyuan in disbelief, “Do you mean…?”
Tang Tianyuan nodded, “Tan Qingchen is probably the Empress’s long-lost younger brother.”
These words were like a powerful firecracker, blowing Zheng Shaofeng into a trance. He held his forehead and muttered to himself while pacing around quickly, “Calm down, calm down!”
Finally, he stopped, looked at Tang Tianyuan, and explained all the weirdness with a single conclusion. “You’re possessed!”
Tang Tianyuan shook his head, “This matter is too coincidental, so I understand it seems unbelievable. And I’m not completely sure either, I’ll have to ask Uncle Tan carefully before I am.”
Zheng Shaofeng didn’t want to associate with Tang Tianyuan at the moment. He thought it was necessary for this person to see a witch doctor first and take some medicine.
Zheng Shaofeng ‘floated’ off, still immersed in the feeling of shock and disbelief. He went to play with Tang Tang.
