"No you don’t" Ling Fei replied with a sweet smile now on her face which slightly distracted Hutton. But he quickly came back to normal as he went towards the spectators area.
At this moment the people at the area have began leaving with either an excited look on their faces or a downcasted look on their faces. But Hutton didn’t have the time to be looking at their faces as he went straight to the top of the spectators area where the head of Ling family is.
"Congratulations on passing the first stage Mr. Hutton" the head of the Ling family said with a light smile on his face after Hutton got closer to him.
"I was just lucky head of the Ling family" Hutton said in a respectful tone while keeping a calm look on his face.
"You can call me Mr. Xiao. Come have a seat here" The head of the Ling family said in a friendly manner as he pointed towards the chair Ling Hai was on previously.
"Thank you Mr. Xiao" Hutton replied as he sat down at where Mr. Xiao pointed. As for Ling Fei, she sat down on the seat she was on when the event was undergoing.
"Now do you know why I called you here Mr. Hutton?" Xiao asked with a light smile on his face.
"Is it regarding my reward for passing the first stage of the event?" Hutton used a question to answer with a curious look on his face.
"Well that’s just a minor reason. The main reason is if you are ready on being a member of the Ling family" Xiao ask in a calm manner.
’Being a member of the Ling family?’ Hutton thought with a surprised look on his face. It seems like Xiao knew what Hutton was saying in his mind as he answered in confirmation.
"Yes, being a member of the Ling family"
"And how am I going to be a member of the Ling family Mr. Xiao?" Hutton asked again with a suspicious look on his face.
"That’s simple, by being my son-in-law" Mr. Xiao said with an resplendent smile now on his face.
"Dad!!" Just then, Ling Fei exclaimed in embarrassment with her face colored in beet red. When Hutton saw this, he immediately understood which made him have a wry smile on his face as he thought.

’Oh G*d’
"Shut up!! Am talking with my future son-in-law" Mr. Xiao yelled back with a stern look on his face which immediately made Ling Fei to back down.
"So what do you think Mr. Hutton? Are you interested?" Mr. Xiao asked as he came back to normal.
"Umm... Can I have the time to think things through first Mr. Xiao?" Hutton asked back with an hesitant look on his face. When Ling Xiao heard him, he first creased his brows for some moments before he came back to normal as he said.
"Sure, at least during your stay here will help you see that you have a big opportunity presented to you"
"Thank you Mr. Xiao" Hutton replied with a grateful look on his face while he sighed in relief within him.
"No problem Mr. Hutton. As for your reward, it will be transferred to your bank account first thing tomorrow morning. Now Ling Fei, excort my future son-in-law back to his quarters" Mr. Xiao said as he further relaxed himself on the chair he is seated on.
"Yes father" Ling Fei said in a low voice while her head is lowered as she stood up from her seat and approached Hutton before she said expressionlessly.
"Let’s go"
"Thank you again for the reward and the offer Mr. Xiao" Hutton said while he stood up from his chair and began to leave the spectators area with Ling Fei.
’I just hope what am doing is worth it’ But Ling Xiao didn’t reply to Hutton as he thought while staring at Hutton and Ling Fei leave the area.
As for Hutton and Ling Fei, they became awkwardly quiet as they left the event venue while going straight towards where Hutton is staying.
’Now what will I say that will break this awkward silence?’ Hutton asked himself with a wry smile on his face. But before he could think of something to say, Ling Fei suddenly spoke up.
"I want you to reject the offer my father just gave you"
"But what if your father gets furious if I reject it?" Hutton asked with a confused look on his face. Based on what he has seen and observed about Ling Fei’s father, he is a man that doesn’t like when things don’t go his way and he might go through extreme lengths just to prevent it.
"I don’t care, just reject him" Ling Fei answered still in the same expressionless tone. When Hutton heard her, he suddenly felt an headache coming in as he thought.
’What problem have I put myself into?’
While Hutton was having these thoughts, him and Ling Fei finally arrived at the pavilion where he stays as both Hutton and Ling Fei unhurriedly walked in.
"So when are you going to see Ling Jun?" While walking through the hallway in the pavilion, Ling Fei suddenly asked in a more calmer tone.
"I think tomorrow is best. I want to have some rest today" Hutton answered with a tired look now on his face.
"Ok. But if you feel that your room isn’t giving you enough rest, then the hot springs at the back the pavilion should do the trick" Ling Fei said in a calm yet longing tone.
’Hot springs! That’s great!’ Hutton thought In excitement but he was completely calm on the outside as he ask.
"What’s a hot springs?"
’He doesn’t know? Well it’s understandable for someone coming from a backwater city’ Ling Fei thought before she explained.
"Hot springs is just like a swimming pool but it has a hot and steamy water in it and it is surrounded in shiny rocks"
"Sounds enticing. I will go check it out when I feel bored in my room" Hutton said in a calm way. But when Ling Fei heard him, she suddenly had a suspicious look on her face while she thought.
’Why am I having a feeling that am being deceived?’.
"We have arrived" But just then, Hutton’s voice immediately brought her back to her senses as she saw that they were are in front of Hutton’s room.
"So this is goodbye for now then" Ling Fei said with a light smile on her face after shaking that thought out of her head.
"Yeah. Goodbye" Hutton said before he got into his room. As soon as he got into his room, Ling Fei’s expression quickly changed as she said.
"Hope you are still here?"
"Yes Young Mistress" just then, a voice trailed into her ear from all around that area. When Ling Fei heard that voice, she immediately relaxed before she walked out of that area.
’It seems like Bob is still here’ Hutton thought with a helpless smile on his face after sensing a very faint speck of aura close to his room. But he didn’t dwell on it for too long as he quickly went to take a bath before he got himself something to eat.
’I really miss the Rice balls uncle Hong makes for me during my past life’ Hutton thought with a longing look on his face while he stared at a rice ball on his right hand.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
While Hutton was still reminiscing with the rice ball in his hand, a knocking sound suddenly came into his room which brought him back to his senses.
’Who in the world would disturb my resting time?’ Hutton thought with a displeased look on his face as he went towards the door. But when he saw the person who is at his door right after he opened it, he immediately became dumbfounded as he asked.
"Angelo? What are you doing here?"
Apparently, it is really Angelo who unlike before that she was on an all red colored Qipao is now on a pink colored polo that has a large v shaped neck which is showing a very seductive deep cleavage and a short blue colored jean.
Angelo is a young lady that has a blonde hair with a very sparkling set of blue eyes. Although she has a face of an angel, her aura could make anyone go stiff. She has an height of 5 foot 9 inches and a very alluring set of legs.
"Am here for you to teach me" Angelo said with a hopeful look in her eyes. When Hutton heard her, he became even more confused as he asked again.
"Teach you to do what?"
"I want you to teach me on how you beat all those people on our platform earlier today" Angelo answered again still with the hopeful look in her eyes. But when Hutton heard her, he immediately became indifferent as he thought.
’This girl can’t be serious’
