Chapter 89 - Hidden Secret
Chapter 89 - Hidden Secret
After finishing lunch, everyone bid their farewell as they went to complete their own business.
Since the Liu Clan was enormous, there were many affairs and things to do.
It was only because today's was the day Liu Ying had returned that everyone had purposely delayed their task to eat lunch with her.
"Anyway, Xiao Ying, Grandma Qiu shall leave now." Liu Qiu said as she caressed Liu Ying's face.
Liu Ying nodded her head.
"Make sure to not overwork yourself, Grandma Qiu," Liu Ying replied.
Sometime later, the room was left with Liu Ying, Lee Tao and Liu Zheng.
"Little brother, I'm a bit tired now, so where's my room?" Liu Ying turned around and asked Liu Zheng.
"O-Of course, Elder Sister. Your room hasn't changed at all and we always made sure it was spotless." Liu Zheng clasped his hand happily.
"Oh right, Nephew Lee Tao, here's the map of the Liu Clan with your room labeled in an X mark." Liu Zheng added as he threw a map toward Lee Tao and dragged Liu Ying away from the scene.
Lee Tao could only watch as they disappeared from the scene with a dumbfounded look.
"... That Liu Zheng, his eyesight is so damn suspicious." Lee Tao muttered as he galnced at the map.
His mouth instantly twitched when the quality of the map was worse than a 2 years old drawing.
"The only visible crap is that big red X mark… Mother should have twisted his ears into a pig ear." Lee Tao cursed aloud as he clenched on the so-called map paper tightly.
Sometime later, Lee Tao began walking around a circle as he couldn't find the exact mark.
"..."
"Xiao Chu, can you scan the entire map of the Liu Clan?" Lee Tao had enough of wandering around as he asked Xiao Chu through a mental transmission.
Within a few seconds, Xiao Chu snapped her finger and revealed the entire map of the Liu Clan on a projection screen.
Lee Tao held a gawking expression when he realized the amount of structure and hidden mechanism in the Liu Clan.
"God damn, do we really have that many secret rooms?" Lee Tao exclaimed in shock as he pointed at one of the red square marks.
The red square mark in the mapping indicates there's a secret interior design of sorts.
There were at least 15 red square marks and possibly even more if he had Xiao Chu conduct an extensive mapping.
Lee Tao scratched his head as he would leave that for later on.
Right now, he just wanted to rest and plan for his next move.
'That Zuo Xiaoli has endured for 3 days already, but I bet she's at her limit now.' Lee Tao thought as he started walking toward his room.
After multiple twists and turns, Lee Tao finally found his room.
"Motherfucker, about time I arrived," Lee Tao snorted coldly as he prepared to enter inside.
Suddenly, a loud voice echoed from behind as she called Lee Tao out.
"WHAT??!" Liu Lanfen exclaimed in shock.
"What are you doing here?" She asked with her finger pointing at Lee Tao.
Lee Tao raised an eyebrow.
Turning around, he realized it was the cold-hearted girl he met during the homeroom.
"Liu Lanfen huh… didn't your father tell you that it's impolite to point your finger at someone?" Lee Tao smirked as he ignored her and continued to open his door.
"Stop it, that room is reserved already," Liu Lanfen shouted as she dashed forward and blocked Lee Tao's entrance.
"Yeah, it's reserved for me, bitch. Now get outta the way."
"Liar, this room is reserved for Madam Liu. Not you!"
"And who told you that it was reserved for her?"
"My father-" Liu Lanfen suddenly stopped her speech midway as she realized what kind of ploy her father did.
"That damn father of mine… he actually lied to me??!" She exclaimed in shock.
"Yeah, he lied to you bitch. Now move outta the damn way." Lee Tao said coldly as he pushed her aside and entered his room.
For someone who was acting like an ice-cold beauty in their first meeting and her attitude of saying how he's unworthy, Lee Tao did not need to hold back in his words.
He wasn't going to act like a simp or just take it without doing anything.
Meanwhile, Liu Lanfen was utterly shocked by the curses Lee Tao had thrown toward her.
Never in her life had anyone ever uttered such words toward her before.
"H-How dare you!!" Liu Lanfen turned around as she tried to argue with him.
However, a door was quickly slammed in front of her.
"..."
Liu Lanfen clenched her fist in anger as she stomped the ground angrily.
"Hmph, no wonder you're completely unpopular in the academy. You are completely outrageous," She shouted and left in a huff.
"Finally, that annoying bitch left," Lee Tao laughed as he plopped to his bed.
"I can now focus on my plan…"
Sometime later, Lee Tao was sitting in a lotus position while manipulating the projection screen.
The projection screen revealed the environment and atmosphere surrounding the Tianyun Kingdom.
In addition, there were multiple box icons with facial appearance of people that live in the Tianyun Kingdom.
"Phew… for this scan, it took at least 3 years to complete." Lee Tao mumbled as he tapped on Zuo Xiaoli's icon.
Ding!
<Name: Zuo Xiaoli>
<Cultivation: Origin Spirit Realm>
<Occupation: Alchemist, Marketing, Management, and Gang Leader>
<Background: On the surface, she's a prodigy and talented woman from the Zuo Clan. In order to gain more power and reputation, she decided to marry Lin Cai and slowly gain control of the Lin Clan. On the background, she was the Gang Leader of a notorious criminal underground that does a lot of illegal stuff.>
As Lee Tao read through the information regarding Zuo Xiaoli, he couldn't help but curl his lips upward.
"Years of idling haven't gone to waste. With this information, how can they ever think of opposing me.." Lee Tao laughed as he clicked on the bottom of the list labeled, 'Hidden Secret'.
