Chapter 297 Conversation

"Ah?! No, boss!!! Please forgive me! I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong!"

This sudden punishment left Lingyan dumbfounded. He opened his mouth wide and cried out in terror.

"No, boss, I... I didn't say anything! Waaah... Why am I being punished too? o(╥﹏╥)o"

Ling Luo also looked miserable. He looked at Ling Ye pitifully and tried to explain with a sob in his voice.

"Humph!"

"I was going to severely punish you two arrogant fools, and you still dare to dawdle here? Do you think this amount of training isn't enough and want to do some more?"

Ling Ye snorted coldly, staring at Ling Yan and Ling Luo with icy eyes, her voice so cold it seemed to freeze the air.

Ling Ye's emotionless gaze was like two sharp swords, piercing straight into Ling Yan and Ling Luo, causing them to involuntarily shiver.

"Ugh QAQ... Okay, okay, I'll go right now."

Faced with such a stern Ling Ye, Ling Luo looked aggrieved, pouted, and said in a tearful voice.

As she spoke, she nodded quickly like a startled little rabbit, then turned around and walked slowly toward the training ground.

On the other side, Lingyan obediently turned around to leave, but he still wouldn't stop talking.

"Tsk, boss, you're so cold-blooded! Did you kill fish at RT-Mart for ten years? How can your heart be so hard?! (?｀?Д?′)!!"

As he walked, he muttered to himself.

However, despite Lingyan's belief that he was speaking very quietly, he still couldn't escape Lingye's keen ears.

"I've been killing you for ten years! If you dare utter another word of nonsense, you can forget about getting a vacation this month!"

Suddenly, Lingye roared.

With that roar, veins bulged on Ling Ye's forehead. His furious appearance resembled that of an enraged lion, sending chills down one's spine.

"Waaaaah... o(╥﹏╥)o Okay, okay, I'm leaving, boss."

Lingyan was moving slowly like a snail, muttering something to himself.

However, at that moment, Ling Ye's deafening roar suddenly came, like a thunderclap exploding in Ling Yan's ears.

"Okay! I'm leaving right away! (°Д°)"

Startled by the sudden roar, Ling Yan trembled and instinctively turned around, shouting loudly at Ling Ye.

Before he finished speaking, he took off running like a startled rabbit, as fast as lightning.

In the blink of an eye, he had already overtaken Ling Luo, who was walking not far ahead.

"Hey! Wait for me! (((?Д?))) "

Ling Luo watched helplessly as Ling Yan sped past him, startled, and quickly quickened his pace to catch up. He waved his arms and moved with incredible speed, desperately trying to catch up with Ling Yan.

For a moment, the two chased each other, neither giving way, like two bolts of lightning speeding down the road.

Their figures grew smaller and smaller until they disappeared from Lingye's sight, leaving only a trail of dust and fading shouts behind.

"Ugh, this is really a headache. (＃｀д′)?"

Watching Lingyan and the other person run away, Lingye sighed and rubbed his forehead.

"Lingye, shall we continue discussing what happened next?"

Suddenly, Meros walked towards Lingye and asked her a question when they were still a short distance apart.

"Huh? You've finished discussing it?"

When Lingye heard that familiar voice, she froze on the spot and subconsciously asked a question.

He then quickly turned his head, his gaze fixed on Meros, who was walking towards him.

As Molos was seen being surrounded by Lao Liu, Lao Li, and their many students, he slowly approached.

Despite traveling such a short distance, Meros acted like a leader, exuding an undeniable authority and charisma in every gesture.

With a smile on his face, he calmly and casually answered the various questions posed by the people around him.

Whenever he gave an answer, the questioners would immediately show an expression of sudden realization, as if enlightened, and their eyes would reveal a deep respect for Meros, and they would become even more respectful to him.

Looking at the scene before him, Ling Ye was completely stunned and had no idea what was going on.

All I did was scold Lingyan a few times!

But why does it seem like I've accidentally missed an entire season of a great TV series, and I can't understand what happened at all?

"Don't just stand there, it's really nothing serious. I was just explaining to them the characters engraved on that machine. They are ancient scripts used by ancient foreign tribes."

Just then, Meros noticed the confusion in Lingye's eyes, and with a slight smile, he chuckled softly.

"Yes, yes, thank you so much, Mr. Meros! This allows us to use the machine much faster."

Old Liu and Old Li said respectfully and gratefully.

"It's nothing. Lingye and I have some things to take care of. We'll continue when we have time."

Moros nodded, said something to Lao Liu and Lao Li, and then walked over to Ling Ye.

“(⊙o⊙)…Let’s go.”

Ling Ye stared dumbfounded at the scene unfolding before him, his mouth agape, unable to utter a single word. He was filled with confusion and shock, yet he didn't know where to begin.

In the end, he shook his head helplessly and decided to lead Meros to his office first.

Along the way, Lingye felt that the researchers' gazes were as intense as burning flames, fixed intently on them.

This feeling made him feel like he had thorns in his back, making him extremely uncomfortable.

With great difficulty, he finally managed to bring Meros back to his relatively quiet office.

"Phew—finally we're out of their sight. That was terrifying!"

As soon as she entered the office, Lingye hurriedly closed the door behind her and let out a long breath.

However, before he could even catch his breath, he saw Meros stride confidently to the swivel chair behind his desk, as if he were in his own living room, and then sit down with an air of nonchalance.

Then, with a faint smile on his face, Meros looked at Lingye with a leisurely air.

"Hey, you're way too familiar with me! This is my office!"

Lingye was stunned by Meros's series of fluid movements and it took her a while to come to her senses before she couldn't help but complain subconsciously.

"Alright, enough rambling, let's get down to business. It's already midnight!"

However, Meros seemed to have completely ignored Ling Ye's words, only frowning slightly and urging her impatiently.
