I Became the Demon King of Lust

Long Shui Ling pouted her lips a bit and said, "That\'s because you never called."

Then in a softer voice, she said, "I was waiting for you to call all this time, but you never called me once. You never even sent me a message…How was I supposed to know what kind of things you were up to when you never contacted me?"

The way that she said all of this was like that of a wife complaining about her husband…

It was just a good thing that Su Chen gave us some space since he knew that we had met before.

He was sure that we would have things that we would want to catch up on, so he gave us this space.

But if he heard what she had said…

I took a deep breath before calming her down by saying, "I\'ve been busy during this time. You should know how it is since I\'m sure that you\'ve had many things to do after returning from the license exam."

Long Shui Ling couldn\'t help revealing a confused look and tilting her head when she saw this.

It was clear that she had no idea what I was talking about…

That was just the privilege that she enjoyed as a rich young miss…but not just any rich young miss. She was the richest young miss in the world.

So there wasn\'t anything that she would need to care about.

But after a while, she revealed a look of understanding and slowly gave a nod.

I could see that she didn\'t fully understand by the look in her eyes, but at least she could sympathize with me…

For now, that was enough since it got me out of this predicament.

Long Shui Ling didn\'t stay angry for long as she said, "From now on, we\'ll be able to work together as a couple. I can\'t wait."

She held her hands on her cheeks as she said this, as if she was already imagining what would happen.

But all I could feel was dread over this…

Then as if to add on to this dread, Long Shui Ling said something that scared me.

"Oh, that\'s right. My father and grandfather asked me to bring you to our home sometime. They said that they were very keen on meeting you." As she said this, there was a blush that appeared on her cheeks.

I couldn\'t help feeling even more despair when I heard this.

It seemed that things really didn\'t go the way that I wanted them to…

After a moment to calm myself, I asked, "Did you tell them about…\'that\'?"

Long Shui Ling revealed a bit of a confused look when she heard this, but then there was a strong blush that came over her face when she realized what I was implying when I said \'that\'.

That blush went to the tip of her ears and she couldn\'t help lowering her face. Her fist came up and she grinded it against my arm out of embarrassment for a while before she said in a very low voice, "How could I possibly tell them that?"

I let out a secret sigh of relief when I heard this, but I still asked, "Then why did they want to meet me?"

Long Shui Ling shook her head before saying, "I don\'t know either. I didn\'t tell them anything about what happened between us, I just gave them a simple summary of what happened during the test and how we worked together."

After saying this, Long Shui Ling revealed a confused look.

She indeed had been trying to figure out why her father and grandfather wanted to meet Lin Fan.

But for me, I couldn\'t help feeling more despair when I heard this.

Since they were the powerful Long Family, there was no doubt that they would have heard the rumours already…

If that was the case, this might be my final meal…

But to not go…was also impossible.

There was more that I wanted to say, but before I could say anything, there were some people that walked into this room.

Two of them ran over with excited looks on their faces.

Blaze said in an excited voice, "Boss, you really are something else! I never thought that you would become a C Rank Irregular!"

Hayato came over much slower as he said with a proud smile, "As expected of someone that I admire. I wouldn\'t have expected any less from you!"

The other two walked over much more slowly.

Qin Yue Ru also had a smile on her face as she walked over, but Claire was different.

When she walked over, her eyes were narrowed as she looked at Long Shui Ling and me.

Once she came over, she said, "Who is this?"

When she said this, the others finally noticed Long Shui Ling and they were all surprised to see her.

Long Shui Ling also couldn\'t help taking a step back and hiding behind me when she heard this.

She was fine when it was just the two of us and Su Chen left us alone, but now that other people were here…she went back to the shy personality that she had.

Before she could trust a person, she was very shy with them.

I gave a cough and introduced her, "I\'m sure that you should have all heard, but this is Long Shui Ling. She will be the new member of our team starting today."

After I said this, all of them focused on Long Shui Ling.

They did already know this since they had been informed about this as soon as they were called in.

But while the other three looked at her with kind gazes, Claire looked at her with the same narrowed eyes and said, "Why is she so close to you?"
