51: Is Aunt Qu's drain clogged?

Having just finished his cultivation,

Ling Xian's phone suddenly buzzed.

He opened his phone and saw that it was Wu Yueyue calling.

"Wu Yueyue? Why is this girl calling?"

During this period of time, Ling Xian had indeed seen much less of Wu Yueyue.

After all, her illness had already been cured.

Plus, since she liked him, Ling Xian wasn't in a hurry to take her down.

"Yueyue, what's up? Why did you suddenly think of calling me?"

"Brother Ling Xian, can't I look for you if nothing's wrong?"

Ling Xian could hear that she was a little bit angry, but it wasn't serious.

"Of course you can. Brother Ling Xian welcomes you anytime. If you want, you can even come straight to the villa to play."

"Brother Ling Xian is a big meanie!

Don't think I don't know what you do at night.

Every day you take Sister Taohua and Sister Mo Xueer into the room to do shameful things.

You big scumbag!"

"Uh..."

Ling Xian didn't expect this little girl to observe so closely that she even knew about this.

He had already been trying his best to avoid her.

"Alright, Brother Ling Xian, I actually have something I need your help with."

"Speak quickly. I'm in a good mood right now, so I might just agree."

"My freshman year starts in a week.

The class group is planning to organize a freshman gathering, and I want Brother Ling Xian to pretend to be my boyfriend.

That way, I won't be bothered by those flies during my university years."

After saying this, although she knew Brother Ling Xian would most likely agree, Wu Yueyue was still a bit nervous.

After all, her illness had cost Brother Ling Xian a lot of money.

If he didn't agree this time, Wu Yueyue couldn't say anything.

But... I really want to be Brother Ling Xian's girlfriend.

Even if it's only temporary.

"You're starting school? Which one?"

Ling Xian knew Wu Yueyue was a high school graduate and was about to go to university.

But he didn't expect her to be a freshman so soon.

Does time pass this quickly?

"I'm angry! Brother Ling Xian doesn't even know which university I'm going to.

I'll tell you once more, you must remember my school next time.

I'm going to Jiangnan University!"

"Jiangnan University? Haha... then I guess I'm your senior?"

"Ah! Brother Ling Xian is also from Jiangnan University?"

"I've already graduated! I'll take on this role as your shield.

However... you have to give me some benefits, right?" Ling Xian revealed a smile.

He was quite interested in teasing such a pure girl.

"Brother Ling Xian doesn't lack money, so... how about I give you a kiss?"

"Fine, but it can't just be a peck!" Ling Xian warned in advance.

"Brother Ling Xian is so bad."

After saying that, she hung up the phone.

"Jiangnan! It's time to go back and take a look."

The only person who left Ling Xian with the most beautiful memories in Jiangnan was Xia Mo.

Not long after Ling Xian fell into deep thought, another message arrived on his phone.

It was from Aunt Qu.

Ling Xian thought her condition hadn't been fully cured last time and checked the message anxiously.

[Aunt Qu: Little Xian, my sewer is clogged. Do you know how to fix it? If you do, come to my house and help out!]

"The sewer is clogged!

This... this... this..." Ling Xian thought of Qu Shuiyun's figure and charm, which were even more seductive than Leng Yunyan's, and felt the blood rushing to his nose.

"No, just in case, I'd better ask for more details."

Ling Xian's fingers quickly tapped on the phone screen.

[Ling Xian: Aunt Qu, are you sure the 'sewer is clogged'?]

To prevent any misunderstanding, Ling Xian specifically added quotation marks.

A Cao Thief? It wasn't like Ling Xian couldn't be one.

This was very much like Cao Thief!

Actually, it wasn't entirely like that, since Leng Yunyan's father was already dead.

[Aunt Qu: That's right, the sewer is clogged.]

[Ling Xian: Aunt Qu, don't worry. I'm a 'Little Expert in Dredging'. This little blockage in the sewer is nothing. I'll be there in half an hour.]

Ling Xian didn't ask Ling Wu to drive, but instead picked out a Ferrari worth several million from the garage and drove off.

Because this was more low-key.

Ling Xian's rolls-royce was too eye-catching, especially that license plate; everyone would know Ling Xian had arrived.

At the Leng family villa.

Ling Xian was a bit lost in thought.

"Aunt Qu, is the sewer really clogged?"

"Yes, I poured half a bottle of drain cleaner, and it didn't help at all.

I was originally going to find a repairman.

But since you said you could do it, I called you over.

Is there something wrong?" Qu Shuiyun was wearing a purple dress today, revealing her shoulders and her ample bust, inviting infinite imagination.

One had to admit that purple had a certain charm, and it was incredibly alluring on Qu Shuiyun.

"No!"

What could Ling Xian say? That he had misinterpreted her?

That would be too embarrassing.

"illusion dream, exchange for Low-level Plumber Skills!"

[Ding! 500 villain points consumed, exchange successful!]

In the next moment, a large amount of knowledge about plumbing appeared in Ling Xian's mind.

Now, he truly was a Little Expert in Dredging.

Ling Xian took the tool bag Qu Shuiyun had prepared, put on rubber gloves, and began to work.

He first checked the drain of the sink.

Hair and soap scum were tangled together here, blocking it tightly.

Ling Xian used a hook to pull it out bit by bit. When the slimy clump was pulled out, it made a "squelch" sound.

Qu Shuiyun didn't leave but stood there quietly watching Ling Xian's movements.

It was as if only this man existed in her eyes.

"This pipe is severely aged," Ling Xian said, making conversation to ease the awkwardness of being stared at. "It'll probably clog often, so it needs regular cleaning."

"Mm," Qu Shuiyun responded. "Little Xian, you look just like a professional."

Ling Xian's fingers paused. "I wasn't before, but I am now.

I don't just help you dredge; I've helped many women 'dredge'."

However, the first 'dredge' and the second 'dredge' didn't mean the same thing.

After the first batch of blockage was cleared, he tested it with water, but the flow was still slow.

Ling Xian picked up a pipe endoscope to observe.

It soon showed that a large amount of insoluble debris had accumulated at the bend of the pipe.

"Little Xian, do we need to take it apart?" Qu Shuiyun asked.

"Probably. Otherwise, it'll only be a temporary fix.

The main issue is that the pipe is old, and everything is stuck inside."

Qu Shuiyun nodded. "Alright, do what you need to do. Just tell Aunt Qu if you need anything."

It had to be said that taking the pipes apart was more troublesome than Ling Xian had anticipated.

"Low-level Plumber Skills are ultimately a bit lacking."

The joints of the old-fashioned pipes were already rusted.

Ling Xian unscrewed them carefully.

When the last section of the pipe was opened, the accumulated sewage gushed out with a splash.

Even though Ling Xian reacted quickly, he still got splashed a bit.

"Little Xian, are you alright?" Qu Shuiyun said anxiously. "You've gotten so dirty."

"I didn't expect so much to have built up."

While Ling Xian spoke, Qu Shuiyun approached with a rag to wipe him down.

Only to find that the more she wiped, the more evenly the stain spread.

Soon, Ling Xian finished the cleanup.

The pipes were cleared.

Qu Shuiyun also spoke up somewhat shyly: "How about you take off your clothes and put them in the washing machine, and go take a shower?"
