Chapter 6 A Lone Lyre Waiting 5

Hearing this condition, Tang Mingtuo almost burst out laughing.

But he held it in.

Maintaining a calm expression.

Tang Mingtuo knew very well that Manranyama Souren, the miss of the Manranyama family, was someone who excelled at reading people and understanding their thoughts.

If she were to grasp what he was thinking, he would become extremely passive.

"To help you... no, to help you get rid of Bai Yaxin, is it...?"

Tang Mingtuo pretended to be lost in thought.

In reality, this condition was completely within his predicted range.

Rather, even if Manranyama Souren hadn't brought up this condition, he would still provide some appropriate help to her and Chongzong.

After all, the major premise of his plan was "Manranyama Souren getting rid of Bai Yaxin and absorbing his influence."

If Manranyama Souren couldn't handle it, then there would be no point in him doing all this.

"No problem."

"But the specifics of how to help will be for me to determine."

That's what Tang Mingtuo said.

This question had a little trap in it.

If he was not careful, he would end up being directed by Manranyama Souren.

And seeing the fleeting disappointment on Manranyama Souren's face upon hearing these words confirmed Tang Mingtuo's suspicions.

This miss was truly not to be underestimated. Even in this situation, she was still striving for her own interests and not giving up easily.

Tang Mingtuo became even more convinced that he had chosen the right person.

"Alright, with someone as capable as Mr. Mingtuo assisting us, our chances of success will be even higher."

Manranyama Souren, who had failed to achieve her goal, smoothly found a way out for herself.

With the conversation reaching this point, Tang Mingtuo had achieved all his goals for tonight.

He stood up promptly from the sofa and gestured for Manranyama Souren to remain seated.

"Miss Manranyama, you flatter me. Well, let's end it here tonight."

Then he glanced at the time on his watch and added another sentence.

"Van should be waking up soon, so I'll take my leave."

Before leaving, Tang Mingtuo added one more thing.

"By the way, if you're going to bring out a gun in the future, it's better to switch off the safety first, just in case you actually need to use it and don't have time to operate it."

Tang Mingtuo revealed a mischievous smile and swiftly left the living room. Shortly after, Manranyama Souren heard the sound of the front door being opened and closed.

This time, Tang Mingtuo shut the door properly, making these sounds to put Manranyama Souren at ease.

However, after experiencing such an intrusion, no one could feel safe in their own home anymore.

After leaving Manranyama Souren's house, Tang Mingtuo instantly relaxed.

Forcing himself to act against his usual style had exhausted him.

He didn't like these power struggles.

Just like Manranyama Souren's understanding of the information Tang Mingtuo possessed.

Tang Mingtuo is just a simple person.

He doesn't like to lead or do anything big.

He just wants to live his own little life.

If it weren't for "that incident" happening, he wouldn't have resorted to this.

In the dark night, this incredible young man walks home.

Even the deep darkness cannot hide his inner thoughts.

Although he appeared calm and composed, extremely cunning, at the Manranyama Canglian's house just now.

But in reality, Tang Mingtuo is not a scheming person.

Just like what was just said, he only puts on an unfathomable demeanor when it's necessary.

Just when he was so relaxed, he turned a corner and met someone unexpected, but also within reason.

Standing under a street lamp waiting for him.

As if already knowing that he would pass through here at this time.

"It's so late for you to come home, are you out playing the role of a cowherd?"
