The Urban Dao Child. Chapter 112
Advertisement
Yang Dao drove his car to the college entrance and his phone rang. He parked the car at the side and accepted the call. The other side was Kiya. She asked him to check on the news. The boy replied he will do it once he reaches home.
Disconnected the call and drove to Sapphire Lake Residency. The guards on the door saw Yang Dao. As the car passed one of them said, "Young Master finally got a car. That too a beauty."
Another guard beside him stood at the side. With his face full of shock. He had just clicked a picture of the car and searched it on the net. Watching his expression, the former guard asked, "What happened, Jack?"
Jack replied with a stutter, "Boss, that car is the world's most expensive car. Those red lines on the edges are all powered rubies. Also, the metal it comprises is the rarest."
His words made the guards regret how happy they felt for the young master buying a car. They felt odd when a rich scion would just ride around on a bicycle, but now this guy just drove in the world's most expensive car. What will they do if some expert tried to steal the vehicle?
Yang Dao, unaware of the fright among the security teams, just parked the vehicle and went up to his home. He just came out of the elevator and saw Feng Yun walking into the lobby. He was surprised and asked, "Sister Yun, when did you come? Why do you not go inside?"
Feng Yun just came to him without speaking, checked his body up and down. Then walked around him in a circle. Only after confirming that Yang Dao was fine. She hugged him in her arms. The boy felt warm. This warmth came from inside. Feng Yun was concerned for him and her emotions were sensed by him.
After a few minutes, the two broke up the embrace and he saw that Feng Yun had two tears almost dropping from her eyes. He wanted to wipe them off, but the girl stopped him. She took out a glass vial from her bag. Then carefully took the two drops inside. She said when Yang Dao looked at her confusedly, "Young Master, did you forget I am the incarnation of the vermillion Pheonix?"

Yang Dao nodded as he spoke, "I remember all of this, but why collect your tears?"
Feng Yun replied, "My tears can bring you back from the edge of the underworld if god-forbid something happens."
Yang Dao was shocked. He did not expect such a thing to be possible. He thought Feng Yun was joking and said, "You cannot fool me."
Feng Yun smiled and said, " You will know in a bit come, let's go inside."
The boy entered the house with her, he found Lisa was standing at the side. He said, "Hello Lisa. You can seat on the sofa you know, why do you stand?"
The girl shook her hand, but Yang Dao said, "You know this is not the Dao Courtyard. I am the boss here, I say you sit means you sit."
Lisa was still unwilling, so the boy turned to Feng Yun with squinty eyes and said, "This is all because you are too cold to people."
The girl in a red suit stuck out her tongue. She said, "I told you about my tears, right?"
Yang Dao nodded, Feng Yun said, "Lisa bring me a knife from the kitchen."
Lisa nodded and walked into the kitchen. She came out after a few moments holding a set of knives. Feng Yun shook her head. This girl would just do it all if she doesn't know the specifics. The cold persona lady said, "Come lie down on the sofa."
Lisa did not hesitate and laid down on the sofa silently. Feng Yun held the fillet knife in her hand and placed the tip on her throat. The maid did not even flinch. Yang Dao asked, "Sister Yun what are you doing?" he was scared by this scene.
Feng Yun said nothing and exerted a slight pressure on Lisa's throat. A drop of blood broke out from her skin. Lisa felt pain and her brows frowned. Yet she did not make a single sound, not even a murmur.
Feng Yun opened the vial in her hand and poured a drop of the clear liquid on her wound. The wound closed in a blink, and the skin was repaired back to its flawless state. She said, "Lisa, today I reward you. Your voice is now back to normal. If you trust me, you can try speaking."

Lisa hesitated, even so, she closed her eyes and said, "Madam." She was shocked by this. She did not expect her voice to be like this. Her voice was gone. It was as if a bear roaring. Tears fell from her eyes. She covered her mouth with her hands.
Yang Dao raised his eyebrows in surprise. He asked Feng Yun, "You can just sell those drops and be the queen of the world, you know?"
Feng Yun chuckled, and said, "Dao, tears of a phoenix, are difficult to shed. Today I was just worried about you. Also if the people knew I can heal with my tears, would they not put me inside a lab?"
Yang Dao asked, "Who dares? I will have Mister Ryu handle them."
Feng Yun chuckled again. Lisa was a victim of the new dawn organization and she knew the existence of elementals. The two people consoled her as she kept thanking them again and again. After having some chat with Yang Dao regarding the issue with the crypto nation, Feng Yun left in the chopper. She had a lot of stuff to deal with, such as bankrupting the crypto nation firms in Jewel Nation.
Yang Dao watched the news and held his forehead in his palm. He did not expect Feng Yun to set the cars on fire and stuff. She also spent so much money on the contract breaches. What surprised Yang Dao was how the allied nations also took action against the Crypto nation.
...
In the evening, Lisa knocked on the door. She said, "Young Master, your tea."
Yang Dao said, "Come in, please. Also, you can call me, Dao."
The boy at this moment sat in front of his computer and was punching in the codes. He was preparing for two things. One was the mobile assistant, and the other was the car assistant. He used Lisa's voice model for both of them and they will be called Lisa.
Lisa pushed on a trolley and poured him a cup of tea. She was mesmerized as she gazed at the screen filled with codes. As a child she also wanted to study but when she was caught in by the New Dawn. Her dreams ended. Yang Dao stretched and noticed her expression. He said, "Lisa, do you like this?"
Lisa snapped out of her daze and she nodded. Yang Dao said, "Why don't you study?"
Lisa opened her lips and spoke in a low voice, "yes, but I could not study after the third standard." She was 18 this year, at this age people would go to college but here she was, not knowing much about the outside world.
Yang Dao asked, "How about you study here? I can get you a book and then you can apply for exams. Jewels nation has an exam where students who can not attend schools can also appear in exams and they can then enter the colleges for higher education. How about it? Would you like to try?"
Lisa shook her head like a rattle. She said, "I do not know if I can understand all this. I have not touched a book in a long time, Young Master."
Yang Dao said, "Lisa, I will teach you what I know. Without trying, you will never know what you can do and what you cannot. In this house, you have little to do. The cleaning will be done by the housekeeping staff. Also, in the future, as the smart assistants model, you will be needed to appear in front of the media. So learning will help you and who knows if you turned out to be a genius, you might as well get promoted and become my secretary in the company."
Lisa blushed at his optimism. She had no confidence in herself. Yet the young master insisted on it. Before she could reject, she heard the doorbell ring. She put the tea kettle back on the trolley and rushed to the door.
She opened the door and saw a beautiful Kylie Dew standing in front of her. She asked, "How may I help you, Madam?"
Kylie Dew was shocked to see a girl appear in Yang Dao's apartment. She said, "I am Yang Dao's teacher. Is he inside?"
Lisa replied, "Please come inside, I will call the Young Master."
After settling the professor on the couch. Lisa called Yang Dao out. At this moment Yang Dao was on a call and after putting the phone down he came out with Lisa in tow.
