Villain: Starting as a Corrupt Tycoon's Wife

Do martial artists also suffer from insomnia?

Ling Yun carefully put away the medicine, picked up Bai Xin and placed her on the table, then charged in head-on.

"Martial artists don't usually suffer from insomnia, but this medicine is very useful."

Chapter 46 Masterful Skill [Bonus Chapter for Donations]

Several days had passed since the banquet, and Ling Leishan's body was finally buried.

Aside from taking their relationship a step further, nothing serious happened between Ling Shuang and Ling Yun.

Following that kiss that night, Ling Shuang started coming to Ling Yun's office more often, even for trivial matters, frequently showing her face to the young man.

Wu Qianyi knew in her heart that her company's female president had probably also fallen for it, but at most she just hadn't exposed it yet.

Bai Xin was in class, and Wu Qianyi was out busy and might not be back for half a day, leaving Ling Yun alone in the office.

He was used to having beautiful women around him all the time, and he found it boring, so he sent a message to Xiang Yao.

Less than a minute later, the sound of hurried high heels came from outside the door, followed by the pre-arranged knock signal between the two.

"Come in, the door is unlocked."

Xiang Yao opened the door, and Ling Yun looked at her, thinking that the woman's outfit today was a little strange.

The tycoon's wife was wearing a long, light trench coat; it wasn't hot this time of year, but it wasn't too cold either.

She came in and locked the door from the inside, then unbuttoned her trench coat.

Looking at the sexy bodycon dress inside, Ling Yun roughly guessed her little scheme.

She stepped forward, turned halfway around in front of Ling Yun, and revealed a charming smile: "Does it look good?"

A form-fitting silk halter-neck bodycon dress, knee-length, perfectly accentuated her hourglass figure. The deep V-back design, paired with pointed-toe stilettos and a simple metal necklace, along with her languidly flowing golden curls, exuded captivating charm.

"good."

Ling Yun took a few steps back from his chair and looked him up and down carefully.

"I've been wearing a trench coat all day, and even the female employees in the office don't know what I'm wearing underneath."

After that night of madness, Xiang Yao developed a taste for it and secretly sought out Ling Yun several times. Each time, the young man would get her drunk until her eyes rolled back in her head before the session ended.

Her inner charm is only at the purple level, but her combat power is already much stronger than other female protagonists of gold quality. She has a strong desire, and once that desire is unlocked, only Ling Yun can satisfy her.

Without the young man needing to speak, Xiang Yao thoughtfully helped him untie his restraints, doing everything she could to please him and cheer him up.

"I remember I just taught you two lessons yesterday, why are you so eager?"

"You can only blame yourself for being too amazing..."

Xiang Yao's skills had been honed to perfection, like a nimble snake, giving Ling Yun an extraordinary experience.

Ling Yun enjoyed humiliating Xiang Yao in certain ways, such as leaving special marks on her face. The woman also enjoyed it; every time Ling Yun did this, she would smile seductively, with a hint of infatuation.

After leaving another mark on her face with his spear, Ling Yun lifted her skirt, raised one of her legs, and began to charge.

Xiang Yao was unsteady on one leg and could only hold onto Ling Yun's strong arm.

Her delicate body was completely enveloped in the young man's arms. This feeling of being conquered made Xiang Yao extremely intoxicated, and she wished she could merge her whole being into the young man's body.

A moment later, Ling Yun changed his posture, turning Yao's back to him, with her hands being pulled from behind, like pushing a cart.

Just as the two were enjoying themselves, footsteps outside grew closer and finally stopped at the door.

"Chairman Ling, the research department wants you to go and take a look."

"It's Shuang'er!"

Xiang Yao turned to look at Ling Yun, wanting him to stop immediately so that his daughter wouldn't find out.

In terms of status, Ling Yun should be her future son-in-law. If Ling Shuang finds out that she is having an affair with her son-in-law behind her daughter's back, she will lose all face.

Ling Yun didn't care about anything else. He led her behind the door and pressed her body against it, thrusting into her.

"Research Department? I remember the chip shouldn't take at least another two weeks. Could there be a problem?"

"No, it's because they realized they were too conservative before. The drawings you provided far exceeded their expectations. The engineering samples were completed a couple of days ago and have undergone a round of testing, with excellent results!"

Ling Shuang's tone was somewhat excited. This tiny chip had brought the company and the market something akin to a bombshell.

"Okay, I'm busy right now, I'll contact you later."

Hearing the noise behind the door, Ling Shuang immediately realized what was happening. Her face flushed slightly, and after muttering "shameless," she turned and left.

After Ling Shuang left, Ling Yun intensified his actions, carrying Xiang Yao to the sofa, pressing her two beautiful legs onto his shoulders, and launching a fierce attack from above.

After a long while, the door to the chairman's office opened. Xiang Yao secretly glanced down the corridor and, seeing no one else, wrapped her trench coat tighter and walked toward her office.

As Xiang Yao passed by Ling Shuang's door, she quickened her pace, but her daughter still noticed her.

"Mom, I couldn't find you just now, where did you go?"

"Huh? Oh, I had something to do, my stomach isn't feeling well today."

She stood with her legs together, her calves still trembling, as if something was about to burst.

"Do you want me to get you some medicine to stop your diarrhea?"

"No, no, I've already eaten."

Xiang Yao felt that the more she explained, the worse it got, so she quickly ran into the next room.

After her mother left, Ling Shuang's brows remained furrowed, because she saw faint traces on Xiang Yao's face.

Those were red marks, like they'd been struck with a stick.

Who would dare to be violent towards her mother? That's impossible. Apart from Ling Yun, who doesn't give her any face, everyone on the board of directors treats her with great courtesy.

Besides, Lingyun had no reason to lay a hand on his mother.

She couldn't quite understand why the relationship between her mother and Ling Yun was so strange—it was a strangeness she couldn't quite put her finger on. On the surface, the two didn't get along very well, but Ling Shuang always felt that they seemed to be closer than before.

Hopefully, the relationship can be eased. After all, Lingyun is her future husband, and if her mother-in-law and son-in-law are not on good terms, her life will not be easy.

After Ling Yun revealed Lao Mo's name, combined with the street surveillance footage retrieved by the police, the killer's previously blurry figure became increasingly clear.

Ling Yun had said he would give her a satisfactory answer, and the higher-ups would not make an arrest without solid evidence. Ling Shuang remained calm and waited for the murderer to be judged by justice.

Back in her office, Xiang Yao plopped down in a chair, her legs too weak to close, and a warm, fragrant stream of milk gushed out.

"That bastard, he made me carry all this back..."

Xiang Yao touched her burning face. She had almost lost her composure while talking to her daughter and was nearly discovered.

Ling Yun approached Ling Shuang, and the two went to the research department.

When the heads of the research department saw Ling Yun, they were overjoyed, practically carrying him to the testing equipment.

"Chairman Ling, look here. After our first round of testing..."

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Ling Yun couldn't understand these specific figures at all, and looked at the excited managers: "I only have one question, what is its specific performance like?"

The group took a deep breath, and the man closest to Ling Yun said in a trembling voice, "Chairman Ling, if the test results are correct, then it is roughly equivalent to the top-of-the-line processor on the market!"

Seeing Ling Yun's dissatisfaction, the man added another sentence.

"The comparison target is the PC terminal."

Chapter 47 Bai Xin's Encouragement

Ling Shuang was still in a state of excitement after leaving the research department.

She didn't know much about this, but she did some cramming, and at least she was very clear about the difference between mobile phone processors and computer processors.

After all, a mobile phone chip is so small that it cannot compare with a computer's CPU or graphics card in terms of computing power or heat dissipation. There is a gap of several generations between the two.

But now Lingyun's chip has broken through this gap. It still uses a 5nm process, but it has achieved results that other companies wouldn't even dare to dream of.

"If our previous research focused on how to forge a piece of steel into a sword that can cut through iron like mud, then the blueprints that Chairman Ling gave us were teaching us how to make a pistol."

This product, which breaks through the current technological limits, is destined to stir up the entire market.

Without official support, even with the size of Galaxy Group, it would be squeezed out by those foreign tech giants and domestic contract manufacturers. Other mobile phone manufacturers might not dare to risk offending them by cooperating with the group.

But things are different now. Whether they're happy to sell separately is another matter. What could be better than cooperating with the military industry?

Having lived two lives and now possessing a system, Ling Yun's perspective on things has changed. In this treacherous world, without sufficient strength, having a lot of money is futile.

Once the red line is crossed, the madness will lead to an endless abyss. Many people ride the wave of the times but mistakenly believe that they are awesome, just like a rooster thinking that it is the one who crowed the sun.

Ling Yun's current strength is not enough; a mere Qi Refining Realm cultivator can't make any difference. Therefore, he needs to defeat more protagonists to become stronger!

A true man is born between heaven and earth and must make a name for himself!

Ling Shuang contacted the officials. Compared to other so-called "civilized and technologically advanced" countries, the Dragon Kingdom was incredibly friendly. After seeing the XH001 processor sample with their own eyes, they even sent people to invite the members of the research team to their side.

Ling Yun no longer needed to worry about what happened next. He also took the time to check the bodyguards' reports and see if he could make any new discoveries.

Inside the school, Tao Yuting had just finished class and, seeing Bai Xin preparing to leave, called her to her office.

"Sister Tao, is there anything the school has arranged?"

Looking at the girl in front of her, who was both innocent and alluring, Tao Yuting thought for a long time before deciding to tell her what happened that night.

"Bai Xin, do you know about Ling Yun's relationship with that female president of Xinghe Group?"

"Yes, I know. Sister Ling Shuang is Ling Yun's fiancée."

"you know?"

"It's nothing. Sister Ling Shuang may seem a bit cold, but she's actually a very nice person and takes good care of me."

Hearing her say that, Tao Yuting didn't know how to continue the conversation.

They're both willing to give and receive, so why are you meddling in their business?

Besides, she has no relation to Ling Yun, so why does she have to act all indignant...?

Thinking of Ling Yun, Tao Yuting recalled what she had seen under the table that day; the grotesque object lingered in her mind.

“Sister Tao, I know you mean well.” Bai Xin was very understanding. “But you may not understand Ling Yun. In his eyes, everyone is the same, and there is no distinction between senior and junior.”

There has to be a big one eventually.

"Let them fight it out. I just need to stay by his side."

Tao Yuting was completely speechless and could only let the girl leave first.

She felt inexplicably irritable, and when she turned on her computer, she didn't know what to do, so she just stared blankly at the screen.

It was quite a while before she noticed the missed calls on her phone.

It's her father.

Tao Yuting's relationship with her biological father was not very good. Her mother died when she was young, and the sons born to her several stepmothers were arrogant and domineering in front of her. Needless to say, the relationship between them was complicated.

"Hey Dad, my phone was on silent during class, so I didn't hear you."

"It's nothing, I just called to ask how you've been lately."

Hearing her father's tone, Tao Yuting knew something was wrong: "Didn't we just meet not long ago?"

"You're 26 this year, you're not getting any younger..."

"Stop, stop, stop! Don't talk to me about this anymore. I've said it before, I won't accept an arranged marriage! As for that so-called marriage contract, you didn't even ask for my consent, and even if you take me to court, I won't accept it!"

“Yuting, it was your father's fault before. I arranged a marriage for you when you were very young, but…”

Tao Yuting was too lazy to listen to him and said coldly, "If you want to persuade me on this, then you don't need to."

"His master is a grandmaster in the martial arts world and one of the few grandmasters in China. Being able to be with his disciple is something many people would rather die for!"

"Dad, has someone gotten hold of something you've done wrong?"

Tao Chuan on the other end instantly flew into a rage: "What nonsense are you spouting!"

"Hmph, what nonsense am I talking about? You've done plenty of heartless things too, it's normal for people to have something on you."

"Tao Yuting, I've lost all patience with you! Letting you go out and become a teacher was my biggest mistake. You'd better come back here dead tomorrow!"

Tao Yuting hung up the phone, too lazy to argue with the other party.
