《The Leisure Life Of The Village Doctor》 Chapter 1 - Sister In Law Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio It was such a hot summer day that even the cicadas in the Qingshan Village were exhausted from the heat. Yang Guang sat under a tree outside his clinic as his eyelids began to slowly shut. The young man was the village doctor. Though he had mastered his craft from his parents, he could barely earn enough by treating the villagers of his village and those from the surrounding areas. The Qingshan Village was situated in Chong Mountain. Most families had less than an acre of farmland. The villagers who were healthy would work at a coal mine a few miles out of their village. However, about a year ago, an accident occurred at the mine and it collapsed, leaving most of the ladies of Qingshan Village without a husband. Just as Yang Guang was about to fall asleep, he was woken up by the cries of a lady. ¡°Yang Guang!¡± The young man opened his eyes and immediately sat up straight when he realized the one who called him was Wu Xiaolian. ¡°Xiaolian? What¡¯s wrong?¡± Wu Xiaolian was Yang Liang¡¯s wife, Yang Guang¡¯s older brother. Unfortunately, Yang Liang passed away a year ago in the accident at the mine. Yang Guang¡¯s parents had also passed away a few years back because of an accident, and with his brother gone as well, the Yang family was only left with him, his sister-in-law, and Yaya, Wu Xiaolian¡¯s daughter. Seeing how anxious Wu Xiaolian was, Yang Guang thought something bad had happened to her and became anxious. ¡°Um¡­ I¡¯m here to get treated,¡± Wu Xiaolian said as she lowered her head. ¡°Oh? What¡¯s wrong? Come on in!¡± Yang Guang said as he opened his clinic door for her. ¡°Where¡¯s Yaya? Is she not with you?¡± Yaya was Yang Guang¡¯s one-year-old niece and had just started to learn how to speak. After his brother passed away, Yang Guang had always treated Yaya as his daughter. ¡°I asked Mrs. Wang to help take care of her before I came here.¡± Wu Xiaolian walked into the clinic and suddenly lowered her head once again as she gripped the corner of her shirt tightly. Yang Guang knew that Wu Xiaolian was an introvert and smiled. ¡°Xiaolian, what¡¯s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?¡± ¡°I-I¡­¡± On her way to Yang Guang¡¯s clinic, Wu Xiaolian had practiced what she wanted to say over and over again in her head. She thought she would be able to tell him her symptoms, but when she finally saw Yang Guang, she suddenly lost the ability to do so. Yang Guang noticed that Wu Xiaolian¡¯s face had turned red, and she was hiding her face out of embarrassment. The sight made his heart skip a beat. Wu Xiaolian was known throughout a few villages around them as one of the most gorgeous ladies. When she married Yang Liang a few years back, a lot of men envied Yang Liang. Even after giving birth to Yaya, Wu Xiaolian still maintained her perfect body shape where she had curves in all the right places. Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but get curious as to why Wu Xiaolian was so embarrassed. ¡°Xiaolian, you can tell me anything. We are family, aren¡¯t we?¡± Perhaps after hearing that, Wu Xiaolian finally found the courage to raise her head and said, ¡°I think I have had a fever for the last few days¡­ I think it¡¯s because I can¡¯t produce any milk¡­¡± Yang Guang almost thought that he had misheard the last few words as if mosquitoes were buzzing around his ears. Thankfully, judging from his sister-in-law¡¯s expression, he was smart enough to understand what she was trying to say. ¡°If you can¡¯t produce milk, then did Yaya eat anything today?¡± Yang Guang quickly asked. ¡°Seriously, that child. I should¡¯ve started the weaning process a few months back, but she just doesn¡¯t want to stop drinking my milk¡­¡± Wu Xiaolian sighed with a troubled expression. ¡°I tried making a light congee for her this morning, but she keeps insisting on drinking milk.¡± ¡°Well, if she doesn¡¯t want to stop drinking milk, then you should feed her,¡± Yang Guang said and paused for a few seconds. ¡°I¡¯m pretty sure your body temperature rose because of the heat that can congest the milk ducts.¡± ¡°Can you treat it? Since I¡¯m still breastfeeding Yaya, I can¡¯t take any medication. Is there any other way?¡± Yang Guang could tell that Wu Xiaolian was extremely worried about Yaya rather than her condition. If not, she would never have come anxiously looking for Yang Guang to help her with her problem. Wu Xiaolian¡¯s expression clearly showed that she was looking to Yang Guang for a solution. After letting out a grunt, he finally said, ¡°There is a solution, but¡­it might be a little indecent.¡± The lady shivered a little when she heard that and noticed that Yang Guang was staring at a certain part of her body.. She immediately understood what he meant, and she quickly lowered her head as her face turned red. Chapter 2 - So Good Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio However, the thought of her starving daughter made Wu Xiaolian raise her head again. ¡°No. It¡¯s not indecent! Please, just treat me. I can¡¯t let Yaya starve!¡± ¡°Good. Let¡¯s do what¡¯s best for her,¡± Yang Guang said and pointed to the bed that was against the wall. ¡°Lie on that bed. I will help unclog your milk ducts.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Even though Wu Xiaolian¡¯s voice sounded normal, her heart was beating at a rate of 160 beats per minute. Even if Yang Guang was a doctor and she was his patient, it was still awkward, especially when the spot that needed to be treated was one of her private parts. People who lived in villages always loved gossiping. If anyone in their village learned about what happened in the clinic, they would instantly become the talk of the whole village. Wu Xiaolian sat on the bed with mixed emotions and glanced at her brother-in-law. Yang Guang was rubbing his hands with alcohol and didn¡¯t notice that Wu Xiaolian was looking at him. The lady bit her lips and took a deep breath before lying down. When Yang Guang finally finished sanitizing his hands and approached Wu Xiaolian, he realized she had her eyes shut. ¡°Xiaolian, I can¡¯t treat you with your shirt on,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Ah¡­¡± Since Wu Xiaolian was too embarrassed to open her eyes, she slowly unbuttoned her shirt with her eyes still closed while biting her lips hard. On the other hand, Yang Guang wasn¡¯t himself either. Even though Wu Xiaolian had a cotton tank top under her shirt, it was still an amazing sight for Yang Guang to watch. After taking two deep breaths quietly, Yang Guang finally broke the short silence. ¡°I¡¯m going to start. You just have to relax.¡± Wu Xiaolian did not reply to him. All she could do was silently beg Yang Guang to hurry up and start the treatment so that they could both get out of the awkward situation. Ever since she took her shirt off, she kept telling herself she was getting treated by a doctor so that she could feed her one-year-old with her milk and nothing else. Yang Guang had the same thought as well. He kept forcing himself to focus on the treatment. The clinic was extremely quiet, to the point where their hastened heartbeats could be heard. A few minutes later, Wu Xiaolian suddenly felt her tank top getting wet. She quickly opened her eyes and exclaimed, ¡°It worked!¡± ¡°Yes.¡± Yang Guang nodded while forcing himself to pull his hands back. ¡°The milk began flowing again once I unclogged the milk ducts.¡± ¡°Oh my god! Guang! Thank you! I have to go back and feed Yaya right away!¡± Wu Xiaolian got up with her face still red and buttoned her shirt up before leaving hastily. As Yang Guang watched Wu Xiaolian leave, he couldn¡¯t bring himself to forget the soft feeling that he felt in his hands. Just like anyone else in his situation, Yang Guang was not paying attention to where he was going while daydreaming and tripped at the doorway. He then stumbled backward and hit the cabinet before falling to the ground. That wasn¡¯t even the end. Sitting on the top of the cabinet were a few god statues. One of the statues dropped, hitting Yang Guang on the back of his head. His eyes rolled back before his world turned dark as he collapsed. When he finally opened his eyes, he realized he was looking at nothing but pure darkness. A second later, stars appeared everywhere before gathering in a single spot to form into a pure white book. The words ¡°Method of Divine Farmer¡± were written on the book cover. The book was enveloped in a bright light. Before Yang Guang could figure out what was going on, he felt a throbbing pain in his head and fainted once again. A long while later, Yang Guang finally woke up and rubbed the back of his head. However, he felt like he could still make out the book. He tried to focus on it, and the light slowly dissipated. Once it did, he could see the words on the cover. Even though he did not recognize the words, he could tell it was titled ¡°Method of Divine Farmer¡± written in an ancient language. ¡°What is this? Did I get some power or something?¡± Yang Guang scratched the back of his head and noticed the broken statue on the ground. He picked up the broken pieces, taking a look at them. The villagers had been placing god statues in their homes since ancient times, and Yang Guang was the same as well. He had a few statues set up on the cabinet. Even though he didn¡¯t know which statue was the one that fell, one was definitely broken. ¡°Perhaps I obtained something from it?¡± Yang Guang quickly closed his eyes and opened the book. [Enlightenment: Hundred Herb Scripture of Divine Farmer Chapter I: Method of Body Refinement Chapter II: Method of Mind Temperament Chapter III: Method of Divine Ascension] Yang Guang¡¯s eyes widened when he read the contents. ¡°Wait, so if I master everything in this book, I can become a divine being?¡± After overcoming the shock, he swiftly opened to the first chapter, ¡°the Method of Body Refinement.¡± Even though the book was written in an ancient language, the words somehow translated into English in his head. ¡°Anything and everything that existed is composed of at least one of the five elements¡ªmetal, wood, water, fire, and earth¡­¡± He read page after page and was completely immersed in the book¡¯s content. When he finished reading the Enlightenment chapter and the first chapter, it was already past midnight. 12 hours had passed since he woke up, but he didn¡¯t feel exhausted at all. On the contrary, his mind was clearer than before. It was as if his body was filled with an energy. The Enlightenment chapter seemed simple on the outside, but it was filled with a vast amount of knowledge that consisted of the effect and growth habits of all the existing herbs. After reading the chapter, ¡°the Method of Body Refinement,¡± Yang Guang felt a mysterious energy grow inside of him. The energy flowed through his veins, and he felt as if his body was filled with power. Yang Guang wanted to continue reading the second chapter, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn¡¯t open it. It seemed to him that he needed to master the Method of Body Refinement to a certain degree before he could move on to the next chapter. He quickly sat down and excitedly began to meditate according to the first chapter. Another eight hours passed. The young man jumped up from the floor and started to punch the air. He felt livelier than he ever was. Filled with excitement, he charged out of his clinic and stopped in front of the willow tree outside. After taking a deep breath, he punched the tree. A loud thud echoed back, and his punch managed to crack the dried bark, leaving a hole in the tree. ¡°Woah!¡± he exclaimed. He couldn¡¯t feel any pain in his fist even after leaving such a huge hole in the tough wood. It shocked him so much that he stared at his hand with widened eyes. After a few seconds, he suddenly realized something and got even more excited. ¡°Now that I have this power, doesn¡¯t this mean I might live a successful life if I utilize it?¡± he pondered. However, just as he was lost in his excitement, he heard a commotion from not too far away. It sounded like it was coming from somewhere around his house. The clinic was just a place for Yang Guang to tend to his patients. He still had a house in the middle of the village. He checked his watch and realized it was already 10 in the morning. Not knowing which family was in trouble, or if the commotion was coming from his house, Yang Guang quickly locked up his clinic and ran home. The closer he got to his home, the clearer he could hear the voices of people shouting. As he moved a few meters closer, he could see people sitting on the fence and the roof while looking in the direction of his home. He immediately quickened his pace. ¡°I don¡¯t care what you think! You¡¯re leaving with me today!¡± Yang Guang heard a man shouting before he could even reach back home. ¡°No! I¡¯m not going! Let go of me!¡± What followed after was Wu Xiaolian¡¯s voice, sobbing and yelling. Worried that something bad had happened, Yang Guang pushed the crowd aside and charged into his garden. Three people were standing in front of his door¡ªa woman in her fifties, a tall man in his thirties, and Wu Xiaolian, whose wrist was grabbed by the man and was being dragged out. Yaya was crying in her mother¡¯s arms. She was so terrified that her voice was starting to turn hoarse from all the crying. Yang Guang frowned at the sight before him and charged forward. As the man had all his attention on Wu Xiaolian, he didn¡¯t even notice Yang Guang charge at him. Yang Guang kicked him in the back, and he fell face-first into the ground. ¡°Daming!¡± the older woman exclaimed when she saw her son get kicked. She turned to Yang Guang and yelled, ¡°Who are you? How dare you hit my son?¡± It was only then that Yang Guang finally saw their faces and recalled meeting them at his brother¡¯s wedding. They were Wu Xiaolian¡¯s mother and older brother, Sun Guihua and Wu Daming. ¡°Oh, aren¡¯t you my dear in-laws? What are you two doing here?¡± As they were technically Yang Guang¡¯s relatives, though not by blood, he calmed himself down and smiled. ¡°Who are your in-laws? Everyone in your family is dead! We don¡¯t have in-laws like you!¡± Sun Guihua yelled back with her hands on her waist like a Karen. ¡°If anything happens to my son, you¡¯re dead!¡± Hearing how disrespectful they were, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but clench his fists. He turned to look at Wu Daming who was struggling to get up and coldly asked, ¡°Are you hurt?¡± ¡°Yang Guang, I can forgive you for kicking me, but this is a family matter. Don¡¯t butt in,¡± Wu Daming grunted while rubbing his butt and turned to grab Wu Xiaolian¡¯s wrist. ¡°Come with me!¡± ¡°Do I look that insignificant to you?¡± Yang Guang got anxious and leaped forward to grab Wu Daming¡¯s hand. ¡°This is my home! How dare you make a mess here?¡± ¡°You f**ker! Let me go! Ouch!¡± Wu Daming was about to hit back when he noticed he couldn¡¯t pull his hand back from Yang Guang¡¯s grip. It was as if his wrist was being pinned down by a pair of pliers. When Yang Guang tightened his grip even more, the pain made Wu Daming¡¯s face turn instantly pale. Yang Guang suddenly let go and turned to look at Wu Xiaolian. ¡°Xiaolian, don¡¯t worry. I won¡¯t let them take you away.¡± ¡°Yang Guang!¡± Sun Guihua yelled. ¡°This is a family matter. You have no right to stop us!¡± ¡°Seriously, what the hell is going on here?¡± Yang Guang was completely confused by the situation. He had no idea why Wu Xiaolian¡¯s mother and brother were trying to force her to leave. ¡°Yang Guang,¡± someone in the crowd suddenly shouted. ¡°Those two just sold Xiaolian and are forcing her to marry a middle-aged man!¡± ¡°What?¡± Yang Guang clenched his fists again the moment he heard that. Chapter 3 - Fifty Thousand Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang glared at Sun Guihua and coldly asked, ¡°Did you really sell Xiaolian?¡± ¡°What do you mean? I¡¯m doing this for her own good! She¡¯s a widow at such a young age. Do you want her to live alone forever?¡± Sun Guihua scolded as she rolled her eyes. ¡°Oh? Really? It looks more like you are trying to sell her rather than find her a man!¡± Yang Guang scoffed and turned to look at Wu Xiaolian. ¡°Xiaolian, as long as you don¡¯t want to go, no one can force you!¡± Before Yang Guang assured her, Wu Xiaolian was still completely dazed as she had no idea what to do. The young man¡¯s words gave her a sense of safety and she nodded. ¡°O-okay.¡± Yang Guang then turned to look at the villager who informed him about the situation and realized the person was Sun Wanshan, the shepherd. ¡°Mr. Sun, do you know the details?¡± ¡°I heard it from Han, the shepherd from our neighboring village,¡± Sun Wanshan replied. ¡°Xiaolian¡¯s mother and brother are just using her to get $10,000 as payment for her betrothal gift! Do you know who the middle-aged man is? It¡¯s Lai Laosi!¡± ¡°What?¡± ¡°That bastard?¡± Before Yang Guang could even react, the villagers had already roared in anger the moment they heard the name. Everyone knew who Lai Laosi was. He was pretty well-known throughout the villages that were located across the mountain. However, he was infamous for gambling, drinking, and having fun with prostitutes when he was younger. He even got locked up for a few years and wasn¡¯t released until he was in his forties. The man has never had a wife in his life. Whenever someone ran into Lai Laosi, they would try to avoid him as much as possible because that man would go crazy whenever he drank and would throw anything he could get his hands on at people. If Wu Xiaolian were to marry someone like that, her future would be ruined. ¡°Xiaolian is already living a hard life now that Liang is gone! How can you do this to your daughter?¡± ¡°Are you really her mother? Is this how you would treat your daughter?¡± ¡°Get the hell out of our village! We don¡¯t welcome ungrateful people like you!¡± The villagers started to yell at Sun Guihua and Wu Daming. Sun Guihua had always been a Karen. Yet even she couldn¡¯t defend herself when faced with the rage of so many people. Her face turned red from anger before it turned pale. Knowing that she had incurred the wrath of everyone in the village, all she could do was roll her eyes and say, ¡°This is a family matter! You all have no right to butt in!¡± The woman in her fifties then turned to Yang Guang and demanded, ¡°If you don¡¯t want Xiaolian to leave, fine! Give me $10,000!¡± ¡°What?¡± All the villagers gave the same reaction. However, none of them expected Yang Guang to nod. ¡°Sure thing. I can give you the money as long as you promise you won¡¯t come back to harass Xiaolian again!¡± Sun Guihua was stunned at first and followed up with a scornful laugh. ¡°What a fearless boy! Do you even have $1,000 with you? Do you think I¡¯m this easy to fool?¡± ¡°I may not have the money now, but it doesn¡¯t mean I can¡¯t earn it!¡± Yang Guang rebuked as he stared at Sun Guihua. ¡°Give me five days! You can come and collect the money in five days!¡± The crowd turned silent the moment Yang Guang said that. Everyone looked at each other, wondering if the young man had gone insane. Wu Xiaolian was also anxious by Yang Guang¡¯s declaration and whispered, ¡°Guang, we don¡¯t have that much money¡­¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I promised them because I have a way to earn that money!¡± Yang Guang assured and turned to Sun Guihua. ¡°So? What¡¯s your answer? You don¡¯t have to sell your daughter to that piece of trash, and you can still get the money. It¡¯s a win-win situation. All you have to do is wait for a couple of days.¡± It wasn¡¯t as if Sun Guihua was ruthless and wanted to condemn her daughter¡¯s future. After hearing Yang Guang¡¯s offer, she began to hesitate. ¡°Why should I believe you? How would I know if you can make that amount of money?¡± ¡°I swear to God that if I don¡¯t give you $10,000 in five days, you can take Xiaolian away. I won¡¯t stop you. The villagers here will be the witnesses to my promise!¡± Yang Guang shouted. The villagers remained quiet until Sun Wanshan broke the silence. ¡°Way to go, lad! I¡¯ll be your witness!¡± The rest of the villagers followed suit. ¡°Me too!¡± Yang Guang turned to thank the villagers before addressing Sun Guihua again. ¡°Now, do you have anything to add?¡± ¡°Fine. I¡¯ll trust you this one time. If you can¡¯t give me $10,000 in five days, I¡¯m taking Xiaolian away, and none of you can stop me!¡± Sun Guihua grunted and turned to leave. Wu Xiaolian let out a sigh of relief after her mother and brother left, but her face was still full of worry. ¡°Guang, how are we supposed to make that much money in five days? It¡¯s impossible.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry. It might have been difficult in the past, but it¡¯s going to be easy for me now!¡± Yang Guang laughed and went into his house. A few minutes later, he came out with a hatchet in his hand and a basket on his back. ¡°Where are you going?¡± Wu Xiaolian asked. ¡°I¡¯m going to look around the mountain. If we are lucky, we should be able to get the money today!¡± Yang Guang smile and left. The villagers were still gathered around his house. When they saw him walking toward the mountain, a lot of them thought that he had gone insane. Even though there were a lot of resources in the mountain, not one of them was valuable. The most expensive item that they could find was the honey fungus that could only be sold for $20 per pound. He would have to collect at least 500 pounds to get $10,000. However, the honey fungus was rare and even the best hunter from the village could only find a pound a day, at the most. Yang Guang had no idea that the villagers were talking about him. Even if he did, he wouldn¡¯t have cared. He had already entered the western side of the mountain and was trekking deeper into it. He had been hunting and collecting resources in the mountain ever since he was a child. Thus, he was familiar with the area. However, he felt different than before. With the knowledge that he had learned from the Method of Divine Farmer, it was much easier for him to locate the herbs. The Method of Divine Farmer had taught him about the growth habitat of each herb. With the boost in strength he had received from the Method of Body Refinement, he could easily climb slopes that no normal people would have dared to climb. These were the reasons he was confident in making the money in five days, or else he would never have made that promise to Sun Guihua. It was almost midnoon. Even though the mountain was windy, Yang Guang was already covered in sweat from top to toe as he traversed deeper into the mountain. He finally reached a place where two steep hills met forming a 90-degree slope. Yang Guang looked up the slope for a few seconds before attempting to climb it. According to the Method of Divine Farmer, places where no human or animal could reach would have the most expensive herbs growing. As no one would have dared to collect herbs that grew up there, they would have been growing for a long time. The older a herb was, the more money it could fetch. It was a challenging climb, even for Yang Guang. It took him a lot of effort to get up there. He continued to climb until he saw something red stuck between the crack on the slope. His eyes widened immediately. Chapter 4 - I am Rich Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang moved closer to look at it. It was a deep-red umbrella-like plant that was as big as his palm. It was growing on the stump of a decaying tree. ¡°Is that¡­ bracket fungi?¡± Yang Guang couldn¡¯t hide his excitement when he realized the Method of Divine Farmer was not a scam. It did indeed help him locate a high-grade herb. Ignoring how dangerous it was, he grabbed a rock that was sticking out with one hand while reaching his other hand into the crack to grab the bracket fungus. However, he lost his balance. He quickly put the fungus in his mouth while stabilizing himself with both of his hands. After letting out a sigh of relief, he started to slowly climb down. If he were to fall from the height he was at, which was around 32 feet high, he would¡¯ve broken a lot of bones. Yang Guang¡¯s heart was still racing from almost falling, and his clothes were completely soaked with his sweat. When he finally got back down, he sat on the ground right away, completely exhausted. After taking a few deep breaths, he lowered his head to check on the bracket fungus he had grabbed. ¡°This is a red bracket fungus! If I were to guess, it had been growing in there for around sixty years!¡± Yang Guang exclaimed after examining the marks on the fungus according to the Method of Divine Farmer. As a doctor, he had some understanding of herbs. It would be rare to find such an old bracket fungus in the market, and it would be able to sell for a good price. However, he wasn¡¯t sure if he could get $10,000 out of it. Still, Yang Guang was extremely glad by the result as it didn¡¯t even take him a lot of time to find his first treasure. There was still time for him, and there was no need for him to hurry. He began to return to his village cheerfully and reached back in no time. A few women from the village were taking a break. The moment they noticed him coming back, they shifted their attention to him. One of the women in her forties stared at the young man and asked, ¡°Guang, even if you accepted the bet, do you have a plan on how to earn that money?¡± ¡°Mrs. Niu, don¡¯t worry. I believe I¡¯ve already earned part of it.¡± Yang Guang smiled. The women were stunned at first before bursting into laughter. Mrs. Niu was laughing so hard that she had a hard time keeping her body straight. ¡°Seriously! Did you go insane or what? How can you make that much money in just such a short time? Did you find a gold nugget or something?¡± ¡°Of course not. But I did find something that¡¯s worth quite a bit of money,¡± Yang Guang replied. He wasn¡¯t in a hurry to go back home and approached the group of women instead. He greeted all of them before looking at a woman who was in her early thirties. ¡°Hua, your cousin has a herb shop, right? Can you ask him how much I would be able to this sell for?¡± Yang Guang asked as he showed He Hua the red bracket fungus. ¡°Oh? What mushroom is this?¡± Mrs. Niu, who had never seen a bracket fungus before, was surprised by it. On the other hand, He Hua, who had seen a few of them, was stunned when Yang Guang took a bracket fungus out. Her eyes widened as she exclaimed, ¡°Oh my god! Guang! You sure are something! How did you find it?¡± ¡°I was just lucky. Can you ask your cousin for me? I really need the money,¡± Yang Guang requested with a smile. ¡°Of course. Let me take a photo of it!¡± He Hua swiftly took her phone out and took a photo of the red bracket fungus. After sending the photo to her cousin, she even gave him a call and urged him to take a look at it immediately. The women who were still around gossiping were completely silent now. Everyone was curious as to how much the thing that Yang Guang got from the mountain could sell for. A few minutes later, He Hua¡¯s phone rang. She answered it and switched to speakerphone so that everyone could hear her cousin speaking. ¡°This red bracket fungus looks amazing on the outside,¡± He Hua¡¯s cousin, Chen Jianguo, said. ¡°It¡¯s quite old as well. Hua, hurry up and ask Guang how much he¡¯s planning to sell it for.¡± Yang Guang was acquainted with Chen Jianguo as he would occasionally buy herbs from the herb shop owner. ¡°Mr. Chen, stop joking around. Why would I ask you if I know how much it costs? Why don¡¯t you just tell me how much it¡¯s worth?¡± ¡°Guang, you sure are lucky. It¡¯s really hard to find a good bracket fungus like this. But I think it¡¯ll only fetch you $6,000 at the most, and you have to find someone willing to buy it,¡± Chen Jianguo answered. ¡°I see¡­¡± Yang Guang was a little disappointed, but he still nodded. ¡°Mr. Chen, can you help me find a buyer right away? I¡¯m in urgent need of money.¡± Chen Jianguo was someone that Yang Guang could trust as the shop owner was an honest person. Even though the red bracket fungus was an amazing herb, it wasn¡¯t something that could bring back the dead. Not many people would pay a hefty amount of money for it. Being able to sell it for $6,000 was already a big deal for Yang Guang. Chen Jianguo had no idea why Yang Guang needed money urgently, but he still smiled and said, ¡°Sure thing. I¡¯ll ask around. If you need money fast, why don¡¯t you come to my shop when you¡¯re in town. You can leave the fungus with me first, and I¡¯ll give you $5,000 as a deposit.¡± ¡°Really? Thank you!¡± Yang Guang exclaimed happily and safely tucked the fungus into his pocket. The women were now all staring at the young man with their mouths wide open, especially Mrs. Niu. Looking at them, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but scoff, ¡°Do you believe me now?¡± ¡°Wow! I have to admit, you sure are something! But you won¡¯t be able to find this fungus everywhere, right? How are you going to get the remaining $4,000?¡± Mrs. Niu asked. ¡°Well, I¡¯ll have to head into the mountain again tomorrow. Maybe I can get lucky and find some ginseng.¡± Yang Guang laughed and turned to leave. The women looked at him speechlessly. At first, they thought Yang Guang would make a joke out of himself, not expecting him to find something that was worth a lot of money. They couldn¡¯t help but gasp at how lucky he was. When Wu Xiaolian learned about it, she had the same reaction. Even she could not believe Yang Guang¡¯s luck. However, when she remembered that the reason he entered the mountain was for her, her heart filled with gratitude toward him. ¡°Guang, thank you¡­ It must have been tedious to find it, right?¡± Thinking of how he almost fell to his death, Yang Guang forced a smile. ¡°It¡¯s not that difficult. I found it not long after I entered the mountain. Look, it¡¯s still early, and I¡¯m already back.¡± He laughed and noticed his sister-in-law was still staring at him worriedly. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. We¡¯ve already made $5,000 with this red bracket fungus. All we need is to make another $5,000. I¡¯m pretty confident I can make that by tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. You won¡¯t have to leave this home once I have the money!¡± ¡°Yes¡­¡± Wu Xiaolian smiled and looked down, trying to hide her embarrassed expression. Seeing her reaction, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but sigh. ¡°But, still, Xiaolian, you can¡¯t stay here forever. Isn¡¯t it better you find yourself a new man once Yaya grows up?¡± What Yang Guang said made sense as it would be hard for Wu Xiaolian to raise her daughter as a single mother. She would need to step out of her comfort zone for her daughter¡¯s future. ¡°But I¡¯m scared that I will meet someone who will not treat Yaya like his own daughter¡­¡± Wu Xiaolian sighed and changed the topic. ¡°Let¡¯s not talk about that now. You haven¡¯t had your lunch, right? I¡¯ll go heat some food up for you.¡± She then turned around and headed into the kitchen. Yang Guang watched her leave with mixed feelings. However, a few minutes later, he heard Wu Xiaolian shriek in the kitchen. He immediately got up and rushed to her. He noticed that her finger was swelling and blood was dripping from it. The young man immediately grabbed the lady¡¯s hand and sucked on her finger. Wu Xiaolian¡¯s face reddened instantly. When the young man put her finger in his mouth, it felt as if her body was electrocuted.. She lost all the strength in her legs and collapsed into Yang Guang¡¯s arms. Chapter 5 - Poisonous Snake Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The sudden situation allowed Yang Guang to wrap his arms around the lady. Wu Xiaolian realized that she was embarrassing herself and quickly pulled away from the young man. She could feel her cheeks burning, to the point where she was afraid to look at Yang Guang as he would notice how red her face was. To hide that, she quickly knelt and continued to place a few dried branches into the wood-fire oven. Yang Guang¡¯s heart was racing as well. All that he could think of was the soft feeling that he felt a moment ago. However, knowing that Wu Xiaolian must¡¯ve been embarrassed, he quickly said, ¡°I¡¯ll head into town to give the fungus to Mr. Chen after lunch. It¡¯s better to keep it with him than leave it here.¡± ¡°Okay. Be careful on your way there.¡± Wu Xiaolian nodded and brushed the hair away from her face. ¡°Oh, right! I¡¯ll go into the mountain with you tomorrow.¡± ¡°Huh? Why?¡± Yang Guang was surprised by that. ¡°This is still my problem. I can¡¯t solely rely on you to solve it. I have to do something as well,¡± Wu Xiaolian said. ¡°Don¡¯t sweat it. We are family after all. You don¡¯t have to worry about it.¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°If you follow me into the mountain, who¡¯s going to take care of Yaya?¡± ¡°She¡¯ll be fine after being fed. I can ask Mrs. Wang to take care of her for a while,¡± Wu Xiaolian replied. Seeing how determined she was to join him in the mountain, Yang Guang had no choice but to agree. After lunch, Yang Guang went to Xishan Town, which was located three miles away, to give the red bracket fungus to Chen Jianguo. He then returned before dinnertime with an extra $5,000 in his pocket. Nothing happened for the rest of the night. As soon as the sun rose the next morning, two people could be seen entering the mountain. Rumors of Yang Guang finding an old red bracket fungus that sold for more than $4,000 had spread throughout the village. When people saw him and his sister-in-law leave for the mountain again, they began to talk about them. Most believed that Yang Guang was just lucky the day before and that he wouldn¡¯t have such great luck all the time. To these people, they were just waiting for him to return empty-handed so that they could laugh at him. Even Wu Xiaolian was not confident that he would be able to find anything. As they traveled, she kept praying to God that she could be as lucky as the young man was the day before and that she could find another bracket fungus or something worth as much. If she did, then all the problems would be instantly solved. They walked side by side as they searched throughout the mountain. Yang Guang wanted to return as fast as they could so that Yaya would not miss her mother. The thought of his niece crying pained him a lot. That was why he was completely focused on their search, looking at places where expensive herbs would grow. Just as he was wondering where else he could look, he noticed a few huge trees not far from them. The trees were tall and had so many leaves that they looked like clouds. Yang Guang recalled from the Method of Divine Farmer that there could be herbs growing under the shadow of such trees and quickly moved toward them. When he got close, he noticed that many thin yellow branches were wrapped around the huge tree trunks. ¡°What are these?¡± Wu Xiaolian asked, following Yang Guang to the trees. Yang Guang turned around to look at her excitedly and explained, ¡°These are Tianma! I never thought we would find these here!¡± Wild Tianma was extremely rare, and it was almost impossible to buy them in the market. Since not many knew much about Tianma, they always ignored them when they hunted in the forest. However, since Yang Guang had gained knowledge from the Method of Divine Farmer, he could recognize the Tianma instantly. As grown Tianma could sell for a few hundred dollars per pound, wild ones would be much more valuable. Excited, Yang Guang quickly ran toward his new treasures. However, his footsteps had woken something in the grass. Just as he got to the trunk, he heard a scream from behind. When he turned around, the first thing he saw was Wu Xiaolian¡¯s pale face. ¡°Xiaolian? What¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°A-a snake bit me¡­¡± Wu Xiaolian said while trembling. Yang Guang gasped and quickly returned to Wu Xiaolian¡¯s side. He noticed that her leg was bleeding and had stained her pants red. He quickly looked around and spotted the snake that bit his sister-in-law. It was a poisonous snake known as the tiger keelback. Yang Guang raised his hatchet and swiftly beheaded the snake before turning back to the lady. ¡°Xiaolian, hurry and take your pants off. That was a poisonous snake!¡± ¡°What?¡± Wu Xiaolian gasped and hesitated for a moment before unbuckling her belt. She took her long pants off, revealing her underwear and long pale legs underneath. Since Yang Guang had never seen her in such a state before, he couldn¡¯t help but widen his eyes. Yet the thought of the poison flowing inside her brought him back to his senses. He forced himself to look away and focus on her wound. There were two tiny holes on her right thigh and dark-red blood was flowing out of them. ¡°Xiaolian, lie down on the grass! I have to suck the poison out of you or it¡¯s going to be dangerous.¡± As time was of the essence, Yang Guang didn¡¯t care if it was indecent for him to suggest such a thing. Seeing that Wu Xiaolian was still hesitating, he pushed her down on the grass. Wu Xiaolian bit her lips as her heart raced. She was both nervous and embarrassed at the same time. She was completely dazed by the sudden situation. As for Yang Guang, he lowered his head and sucked on the two tiny holes. ¡°Ah!¡± Wu Xiaolian shrieked and quickly covered her reddened face with her hands. After spitting out poisoned blood a few times, Yang Guang could see that the wound wasn¡¯t bleeding any longer. He then tore the bottom part of his shirt and wrapped it around her thigh. Throughout the ordeal, his fingers brushed against her soft thigh from time to time. The feeling was so new to him that his throat was starting to turn dry. As Wu Xiaolian was lying sideways on the grass, he could see her round bottom and soft thighs. The sight of that made him feel like his heart was about to explode. Their surrounding was completely silent except for the sound of the young man wrapping a cloth around the lady¡¯s thigh. After he was done with that, he let out a sigh of relief. ¡°Xiaolian. It¡¯s done. You¡¯ll be fine now.¡± Wu Xiaolian nodded and sat up while trying to cover her underwear with her shirt. She lowered her head to hide her embarrassed face and said, ¡°I¡¯m sorry. I should¡¯ve been more careful¡­¡± ¡°No. Don¡¯t blame yourself. I should¡¯ve paid more attention to our surroundings.¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Why don¡¯t you sit here and have a rest first. I¡¯ll go dig up some Tianma. Those should be enough to earn us the rest of the money.¡± He then turned and ran back to the huge trees to start digging for Tianma. Wu Xiaolian quickly recovered from the embarrassment and could see Yang Guang digging up things that looked like potatoes. ¡°Are those the Tianma you were talking about?¡± ¡°Yes. If we dry them, we could sell them for more than $400 per pound!¡± Yang Guang exclaimed. ¡°That much?¡± Wu Xiaolian¡¯s eyes widened. ¡°Right? I didn¡¯t even know we could find Tianma in our mountain!¡± Yang Guang nodded. ¡°We should plant some in our farm as well. We can get rich with these!¡± ¡°Oh my god!¡± Wu Xiaolian got excited as well. ¡°That¡¯s amazing!¡± ¡°I know! It won¡¯t be long before you and Yaya can have a better life!¡± Yang Guang smiled. Chapter 6 - I Will Give You a Ride Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was completely excited as he kept digging Tianma out of the ground one after another. Each of them could land him a lot of money. Even though it wasn¡¯t enough to make $4,000, this was more than he could bargain for. The young man was not a greedy person. If he could sell these for around $3,000 to $4,000, then it would mean that he was one step closer to his $10,000 target. Being joyful brought him even more enthusiasm. It only took him half an hour to fill his basket with the Tianma. When he turned around, he noticed that Wu Xiaolian was staring at him. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± he asked. ¡°N-nothing.¡± Wu Xiaolian quickly diverted her gaze to something else while looking nervous. Yang Guang shrugged and looked at his basket. ¡°There should be around eight to ten pounds here. There¡¯s no way we have the time to try them. I¡¯ll see if I can sell them fresh at the town market tomorrow.¡± ¡°How much can we get from these?¡± ¡°$2,000 at the most but we are more likely to get around $1,400 to $1,600.¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°That¡¯s already a lot!¡± Wu Xiaolian gasped as her eyes widened. ¡°Guang! You are amazing! You actually made that much money in just two days!¡± As Yang Guang didn¡¯t want to tell Wu Xiaolian about the Method of Divine Farmer yet, he quickly made up an excuse. ¡°Maybe God is taking pity on us for living such a hard life and is now blessing us.¡± He was just joking but Wu Xiaolian bought it and sighed. ¡°You¡¯re right. I hope that God can continue to bless so that we don¡¯t have to live such a hard life anymore¡­¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry.¡± Yang Guang¡¯s heart broke when he saw how sad Wu Xiaolian was. ¡°Our lives will get better. Trust me!¡± ¡°Yeah¡­¡± Wu Xiaolian nodded and struggled to get up. ¡°It¡¯s already quite late. Let¡¯s head back.¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Yang Guang carried the basket on his back and approached her. ¡°How are you feeling? Can you walk?¡± ¡°I¡¯m fine. It still hurts a little but I can walk. Don¡¯t worry.¡± Wu Xiaolian forced a smile while enduring the pain in her inner thigh. Yang Guang felt relieved after making sure that she really could walk on her own. As they traveled back to their village, he said, ¡°I¡¯ll come back tomorrow to gather more Tianma. Perhaps I¡¯ll find something else that¡¯s worth even more!¡± ¡°Thank you. Actually, I have around $500 saved up. Why don¡¯t you use that as well?¡± Wu Xiaolian asked. Yang Guang was stunned for a second before shaking his head. ¡°No! That won¡¯t do! You can keep the money. Just let me handle all the finances from now on!¡± It was Wu Xiaolian¡¯s time to pause for a second. A genuine smile then appeared on her face and she said, ¡°Guang, you really have grown up.¡± ¡°What are you talking about? I¡¯m the only man left in our family. It¡¯s about time I start to shoulder the responsibility!¡± Yang Guang laughed. The two of them continued their conversation and soon arrived back at their village. It was mid-noon and the women were resting under a huge tree as always. When they noticed Yang Guang and Wu Xiaolian coming back, they stopped their chit-chat and turned to look at the young man and lady. When Yang Guang got closer to them, Mrs. Niu asked, ¡°Guang, did you find any bracket fungi again today?¡± ¡°No. But we didn¡¯t come back empty-handed either,¡± Yang Guang replied with a grin. Seeing how heavy the basket behind the young man was, Mrs. Niu got curious. She got up to take a look at its contents. ¡°Let¡¯s see what you found today.¡± However, when she saw that the things inside the basket were round and covered in dirt like potatoes, she couldn¡¯t help but laugh. ¡°Guang, have you gone insane? Are you trying to earn a lot of money with a basket of potatoes?¡± The other women got curious and gathered around. When they finally saw what was in the basket, they were stunned as well. Knowing that the women could not recognize Tianma, Yang Guang didn¡¯t pay much attention to them and smiled. ¡°Well, whatever they are, I assure you they can fetch a good price.¡± ¡°Drop your act! Who would believe that?¡± Mrs. Niu mocked. ¡°Whatever,¡± Yang Guang sighed. ¡°You¡¯ll believe me once I sell them.¡± He then returned home with Wu Xiaolian, leaving the women utterly confused. Mrs. Niu watched Yang Guang leave and turned to ask He Hua, ¡°Those are potatoes, right?¡± ¡°Looks like it. But they do smell like medicinal herbs. I¡¯m not sure if they are potatoes.¡± He Hua shook her head. ¡°That kid, he was already lucky enough to find the bracket fungus yesterday, and today he came back with a basket full of things that we¡¯ve never seen before? Since when did our mountain have so many good medicinal herbs?¡± Mrs. Niu asked and a thought suddenly came to her mind. ¡°Hey, ladies, why don¡¯t we head into the mountain later? Maybe we can find something expensive too?¡± ¡°Sure thing! Let¡¯s go!¡± the women all agreed. He Hua was the only one who shook her head. ¡°I can¡¯t go. I have to go to town to buy something later.¡± ¡°Suit yourself,¡± Mrs. Niu said, not forcing He Hua to join them. ¡°But don¡¯t cry when we find something good!¡± ¡°I won¡¯t.¡± He Hua smiled. The women headed into the mountain as soon as they finished their lunch. At the same time, Yang Guang walked out of his house with the basket full of Tianma on his back. Even though the basket weighed around 10 pounds, he didn¡¯t feel exhausted at all. As he walked, he felt so light that he wished he had a pair of wings so that he could fly to town. Not long after he walked out of the village, he heard something approach him. He turned around to see He Hua on her electric scooter. ¡°Hua, where are you going?¡± he asked. ¡°I¡¯m going to my cousin¡¯s house in town. Are you heading there too?¡± He Hua stopped her scooter and asked with a smile. ¡°What a coincidence! I¡¯m heading to Mr. Chen¡¯s place as well! Maybe he¡¯ll buy these off me.¡± He Hua¡¯s curiosity was piqued again as she looked at the young man¡¯s basket. ¡°Tell me, exactly what are those things in your basket?¡± ¡°Tianma. They are expensive medicinal herbs. Since Mrs. Niu had never heard about them before, there was no point in explaining it to her,¡± Yang Guang laughed. He Hua nodded and gently tapped her scooter. ¡°It¡¯s still quite far from town. Do you want me to give you a ride?¡± ¡°That would be great!¡± Yang Guang exclaimed but hesitated when he looked at the small backseat. ¡°But the backseat is a little small for me.¡± He Hua rolled her eyes back and laughed, ¡°Are you dumb? There¡¯s no way a tall guy like you can fit there. You drive.¡± ¡°Right. But, what about my basket?¡± ¡°I¡¯ll carry it for you!¡± He Hua said and took the basket from him. ¡°I¡¯ll take you up on your offer then. Let me treat you to some food once we get back.¡± Yang Guang smiled. He then sat on the scooter and waited for He Hua to sit down before turning the handle and they rode toward town. However, after a few seconds, he could feel two tiny hands grabbing his shirt around his waist.. His heart immediately skipped a beat when he realized what was going on. Chapter 7 - The Complaints of He Hua Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio He Hua was also one of the most gorgeous ladies in all of Qingshan Village. Even though she was already in her early thirties, her skin was still soft and she had a pure-looking face. It was as if she was a beautiful lady in her mid-twenties. Unlike Mrs. Niu and other women, He Hua had studied in her early years and had graduated high school. That was why she was much more knowledgeable than everyone else. As Yang Guang rode the electric scooter, he could feel He Hua¡¯s body behind him. Even if their bodies did not touch, it was as if he could feel her body heat. The young man gulped before asking, ¡°U¡­ Hua, I don¡¯t think I¡¯ve seen Zhonghua recently.¡± The person that Yang Guang was referring to was He Hua¡¯s husband, Fu Zhonghua. Since Fu Zhonghua did not work at the coal mine, he did not pass away at the mine accident. He was one of the few men left in the village. ¡°Don¡¯t bring him up. He¡¯s only been back a couple of times since the New Year. He would only stay for a night every time and leave the next day!¡± He Hua grumbled. ¡°I see. Maybe he¡¯s busy with his business. He¡¯s a man after all. It¡¯s his job to earn more money.¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Nah! I can tell that he already has a lover, or else he would never stay in town for so long! He¡¯s never even called me once!¡± As He Hua continued to complain about her husband, Yang Guang could only keep his mouth shut as he had no idea how to comfort her. The path to Hongqi Town from Qingshan Village was a cement road that was paved years ago. As the road lacked maintenance, there were a lot of potholes all the way to town. The journey wasn¡¯t as smooth as it used to be. That was why when the scooter hit a pothole, He Hua decided to wrap her arms around Yang Guang¡¯s waist to stabilize herself. Since it was the young man¡¯s first time experiencing that, he almost lost control of the scooter and drove into a drain. With He Hua hugging him tightly, he could feel her chest rubbing against his back. When the scooter rocked, he could feel her chest moving up and down. Yang Guang had no idea if He Hua was doing it on purpose and wondered if she was just holding him tight so that she wouldn¡¯t fall. There was no way he would say no to that when He Hua didn¡¯t mind it. He grinned and continued to enjoy the amazing feeling on his back as he drove slowly toward town. Even though the road was long, they managed to reach Hongqi Town before two in the afternoon. Hongqi Town was a tiny town, but it was located in the center of all the villages within a six-mile radius. There was a governmental building, a primary school, and even a supermarket in the town. Along the main road were shops of different nature, selling products ranging from rice to pet food. There were even a few big restaurants and mini markets, making the street a busy one. Yang Guang stopped the electric scooter in front of Chen Jianguo¡¯s medicinal herb shop. He waited for He Hua to get off the scooter before parking it. Seeing how red He Hua¡¯s face was, Yang Guang asked, ¡°The sun sure is hot today, huh?¡± ¡°Right?¡± He Hua smiled. ¡°This damn summer! Why is it so hot?¡± Yang Guang laughed and took his basket back from He Hua before heading into the shop. The shop was empty except for Chen Jianguo sitting by the counter. When he heard the door open, he raised his head. ¡°Oh? Guang! What brings you here again?¡± ¡°Money brings me here!¡± Yang Guang smiled and placed his basket on the counter. ¡°Mr. Chen, not many people know about these things, but I¡¯m sure you do, right?¡± ¡°Let me have a look.¡± When Chen Jianguo looked into the basket, his eyes widened immediately. ¡°T-this is¡­¡± ¡°You guessed it. It¡¯s a good thing you recognize them!¡± Yang Guang grinned. ¡°I don¡¯t have time to dry them but can you estimate their total value for me?¡± ¡°Where did you get these Tianma?¡± Chen Jianguo asked as he looked at the young man in surprise. ¡°From the mountain. These are wild Tianma. There¡¯s no way I can plant these yet,¡± Yang Guang answered. ¡°Weird. Since when did our mountain have something like this? I¡¯ve never heard about this before!¡± Chen Jianguo mumbled and looked up. ¡°I don¡¯t know the price for fresh Tianma. But, don¡¯t worry! Someone will be here soon and she¡¯ll give you a reasonable price!¡± ¡°Who¡¯s coming?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°The owner of a huge company! She¡¯s here to purchase the bracket fungus you brought in,¡± Chen Jianguo answered. ¡°Really? Someone is willing to buy that for $6,000?¡± Yang Guang gasped. ¡°Boy, you sure are lucky.¡± Chen Jianguo nodded with a huge grin. ¡°You brought me the fungus yesterday and you already have a buyer.¡± ¡°That¡¯s great! I can sell her the Tianma as well, right?¡± He Hua walked into the shop and interrupted the conversation. After greeting her cousin, she was about to head into the back of the shop to look for cousin-in-law when she said to Yang Guang, ¡°Guang, don¡¯t leave right away once you¡¯re done. Let¡¯s head back together.¡± ¡°Sure thing!¡± Yang Guang nodded as that was what he had wished for. Chen Jianguo had no idea what happened between them. Thus, he paid no attention to them and focused on the contents of the basket instead. ¡°You sure are lucky. I guess you already have enough money from the things you gathered yesterday and today?¡± ¡°Almost. It¡¯s only the second day. I still have three days left.¡± ¡°Right. You are probably the only person who can do this. It would be almost impossible for others even if they tried their best!¡± Chen Jianguo laughed. ¡°I have no choice. There¡¯s no way I can send my sister-in-law to hell, right? She¡¯s still family.¡± Chen Jianguo looked at the young man and nodded. ¡°You sure have grown up. It feels just like yesterday that you were still a little boy!¡± ¡°Haha! Stop with your jokes, Mr. Chen!¡± They continued to talk for half an hour until a black SUV stopped in front of the store. A lady dressed in casual clothes came out from the car. From the moment she got out of the car to when she walked into the store, Yang Guang could not look away. The lady¡¯s hair was long and her lips were a healthy shade of pink. Her eyes and brows were like an art piece. She was as gorgeous as the celebrities that Yang Guang had seen on TV. The only thing that felt odd was the coldness in her big eyes. It was as if she could freeze anyone with her gaze. The lady ignored Yang Guang and approached Chen Jianguo. ¡°Chen, where¡¯s the thing?¡± ¡°It¡¯s here. Why don¡¯t you have a seat inside, Ms. Mu?¡± Chen Jianguo asked. Mu Xiaowan frowned and shook her head. ¡°No, thanks. Let¡¯s just do our business here. I¡¯m on a tight schedule.¡± Judging from her reaction, Yang Guang could tell that she was a little annoyed. Chen Jianguo then reached under the counter and took out a small box. He opened the lid and placed it on the counter. Yang Guang noticed that the bracket fungus that he brought in the day before was sitting inside the box. Mu Xiaowan picked the box up and began to study it. It was as if she was analyzing every small detail of the fungus. After a long moment of pure silence, Yang Guang could not hold it in and groaned, ¡°Hey! Are you done with it?¡± Yang Guang was starting to get annoyed as the lady was taking too long.. He couldn¡¯t understand why she had to study the fungus for five minutes straight. Chapter 8 - A Bet Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was starting to get annoyed as Mu Xiaowan had been staring at the red bracket fungus for too long. He couldn¡¯t understand why she had to study the fungus for five minutes straight. Mu Xiaowan raised her head to look at Yang Guang as if he was weird. ¡°Who are you?¡± ¡°The red bracket fungus in your hand, I¡¯m the one who found it. Don¡¯t tell me you think it¡¯s fake?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°What¡¯s wrong with taking a little precaution?¡± Mu Xiaowan frowned and rolled her eyes before turning back to Chen Jianguo. ¡°This sure is a great product. I¡¯ll transfer the money to your account.¡± ¡°Sure thing. Take your time.¡± Even though Chen Jianguo did tell Mu Xiaowan to take her time, his anxious expression betrayed him. [Beep! $7,000 has been deposited into your account!] When a female AI voice filled the room, Yang Guang¡¯s jaw dropped. Not only did he manage to sell the bracket fungus, but it was sold for $1,000 more than the expected price. Yang Guang finally understood why Chen Jianguo was excited as well. The shop owner had earned himself quite a fortune too. Seeing how Mu Xiaowan could transfer such a huge amount of money without any hesitation, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but stare at her. ¡°Um¡­ Miss¡­¡± ¡°Who are you calling miss?¡± Mu Xiaowan turned to scold the young man. ¡°Then¡­ Ma¡¯am?¡± ¡°Shut the hell up! Just call me Ms. Mu!¡± Mu Xiaowan roared. Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but curse at the lady in his head. Yet he couldn¡¯t show the emotion on his face and had to force himself to smile. ¡°Ms. Mu, I¡¯m here to deliver some medicinal herbs today too. I wonder if you would be interested in these wild Tianma?¡± ¡°Hm?¡± At first glance, Mu Xiaowan thought of Yang Guang as a disrespectful and rude young man. However, the mention of wild Tianma caught her attention immediately, and she completely disregarded her opinion toward him. She looked at the basket and asked, ¡°Are the Tianma in there?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± Yang Guang nodded and showed her the contents of his basket. ¡°I just dug them up this morning. They are as fresh as you can get.¡± Mu Xiaowan didn¡¯t say anything and picked one up. She smelled it and checked its freshness before weighing it out. It was only after that she turned to ask Yang Guang, ¡°You said you dug this up in the mountain?¡± ¡°Yes. How about it, Ms. Mu? Are you interested in purchasing them?¡± Mu Xiaowan ignored him and questioned Chen Jianguo, ¡°Didn¡¯t you say there wasn¡¯t any Tianma in your mountain?¡± ¡°Um¡­¡± Chen Jianguo gulped awkwardly. ¡°I only found out about it today as well.¡± From how Mu Xiaowan spoke about the mountain, Yang Guang could tell that she had always looked down on it. The young man couldn¡¯t help but say, ¡°Ms. Mu, to be honest, the mountains and rivers around here have a lot of good products. I¡¯m pretty sure you can find any expensive medicinal herbs you want here.¡± ¡°Is that so?¡± Mu Xiaowan turned back to look at Yang Guang. ¡°Then can you get me more of these? If you can, I¡¯ll be making a long-term purchase from you. You don¡¯t have to worry about the price either. I¡¯ll buy them from you at the highest possible price.¡± ¡°I can¡¯t assure you that I can find more wild ones, but I can try planting them. The effects should be the same as the wild ones,¡± Yang Guang replied excitedly. Yang Guang was serious about what he said, but Mu Xiaowan burst out laughing to the point where she was having a hard time standing straight. Once her laughter died down a little, she scoffed, ¡°Seriously, what¡¯s your job? How can you say something so absurd without knowing anything?¡± ¡°How is it absurd? I had plans to grow Tianma on my farm from the start. If you don¡¯t believe me, so be it. Why do you have to mock me?¡± Yang Guang was a little angered by her reaction. ¡°Let¡¯s say you really know how to plant Tianma, I can still tell you are exaggerating it just from you saying that the ones you plant can have the same effects as the wild ones!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. That statement managed to ignite the competitive spirit inside of Yang Guang. He rolled his sleeve up and asked, ¡°Really? Then, what if the ones I plant are as good as the wild ones? Do you want to make a bet?¡± ¡°What kind of bet?¡± Mu Xiaowan scoffed. ¡°Well, if the Tianma I plant have the same effects as the wild ones, then I win!¡± ¡°Sure thing. What¡¯s the stake then?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. Yang Guang looked at her soft lips and gulped. ¡°If you lose, you¡¯ll have to kiss me. If I lose, I¡¯ll return all the money I earned from the red bracket fungus and these Tianma to you.¡± Both Chen Jianguo and Mu Xiaowan¡¯s eyes widened at the absurd bet. A few seconds later, Mu Xiaowan¡¯s expression turned from a shocked one to a flustered one before finally turning into an angry one. ¡°You little brat! How dare you mess with me?¡± Before she could even finish her sentence, she raised her leg to kick Yang Guang in the chest. If this had happened some time ago, she would¡¯ve been able to hurt him. However, Yang Guang was a lot different than before. All he had to do was turn sideways a little, and Mu Xiaowan missed. He then looked at her with a grin and challenged, ¡°Looks like you don¡¯t have the confidence that you¡¯ll win. What? Are you scared that you¡¯ll lose?¡± ¡°Shut up!¡± Mu Xiaowan yelled. ¡°Why would I be afraid of losing? How rude can you be to a woman? Do you know that the last person who teased me like that ended up in a hospital?¡± ¡°You serious?¡± Yang Guang gasped, not expecting the gorgeous lady to have such a violent side. After a moment of hesitation, Yang Guang was about to say that he was just joking when Mu Xiaowan spoke first. ¡°Well, if you have the guts to make that bet, then I¡¯ll play along with you.¡± Yang Guang was completely surprised as he did not think she would agree with it. ¡°What? Scared now? Chen! Get me paper and a pen! This has to be noted down in black and white! You¡¯ll be our witness!¡± Mu Xiaowan ordered. Chen Jianguo was rendered speechless by the situation. ¡°Why are you two dragging me into this stupid bet?¡± he thought. The owner of the medicinal herb shop knew what status Mu Xiaowan had. She was the daughter of Mu Feng, a company chairman with countless businesses under his belt. Just like all stereotypical rich kids, Mu Xiaowan was arrogant as well. That was why Chen Jianguo thought that it was a waste for Yang Guang to make such a bet. If Yang Guang lost, he would have to return all the money he had earned. Even if he won, there was no way Mu Xiaowan would kiss him. She would¡¯ve settled it with money. As for Chen Jianguo, he didn¡¯t want to get stuck in the middle of them. There was no way Yang Guang would know what Chen Jianguo was thinking. Hearing that Mu Xiaowan wanted their bet to be official, he immediately nodded. ¡°She¡¯s right! Mr. Chen, get us paper and a pen!¡± Yang Guang was confident that his Tianma would be as good as the wild products. All he had to do was plant them, and he could smooch on the beautiful lady¡¯s sexy lips. He couldn¡¯t help but start to wonder what her lips would taste like. The more he thought about it, the more excited he got. At first, Chen Jianguo planned to stop them. But seeing how determined they were, he had no choice but to get them a pen and some paper. ¡°Hold up,¡± Yang Guang suddenly said. ¡°Shouldn¡¯t we calculate the price first? The red bracket fungus costs $7,000, but what about the Tianma that I brought with me?¡± ¡°How is that a problem?¡± Mu Xiaowan laughed and turned to Chen Jianguo. ¡°Chen, weigh those Tianma for me.¡± ¡°Fine¡­¡± Chen Jianguo sighed and took the electronic scale that he always used. After a few minutes, he finally said, ¡°These total to nine pounds.¡± Chapter 9 - You Are So Thoughtful Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Mu Xiaowan nodded. ¡°Very well.¡± After a quick calculation in her head, she looked at Yang Guang and said, ¡°It takes one pound to produce four ounces of dried goods. Considering the current market price, the price of these Tianma should be $3,000, which all together, is exactly $10,000 in total!¡± ¡°All right, no problem!¡± Yang Guang nodded while he had another thought. ¡°How about you pay upfront, and I will count it as income after receiving it, and then it can be included in the agreement!¡± ¡°Huh! You are not dumb!¡± Mu Xiaowan gave a little laugh and then asked, ¡°How about I give all the money to Old Chen so he can settle it with you?¡± Yang Guang nodded. ¡°That works for me!¡± Soon, the $3,000 was successfully transferred, and Mu Xiaowan said to Chen Jianguo, ¡°Draft the agreement we made just now and put it on paper!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Chen Jianguo didn¡¯t know what to say. He wanted to mediate in the matter, but when he saw that these two young people showed no signs of backing down, he knew that it would be pointless to persuade either one of them. These two were in an impasse, so he had no choice but to start the paperwork. After the draft was completed, Mu Xiaowan took the lead by signing and imprinting her thumbprint on the document, in a very formal manner. After seeing Yang Guang¡¯s signature, she gave a cold laugh and said, ¡°Oh, so your name is Yang Guang. Don¡¯t worry, it won¡¯t take long before you don¡¯t feel the sunshine anymore.¡± ¡°¡­¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes silently and wondered how moments ago, he had thought that this girl was rather pretty. Now, he suddenly felt that she was very annoying. After signing, the agreement was now in effect, with a time limit of three months. If Yang Guang failed to produce the Tianma he planted by that time, he would lose. Although he was not all that sure about the whole thing and he did not know the first thing about planting Tianma, Yang Guang felt that with the Method of Divine Farmer at his disposal, there was nothing he could not solve, hence the confidence. After he put together the red bracket fungi and Tianma, Chen Jianguo personally delivered them to Mu Xiaowan¡¯s vehicle. Before getting into her car, Mu Xiaowan stared at Yang Guang as she gritted her teeth. She made a gesture by sliding her thumb across her neck. ¡°You moron, you will regret it! You are dead!¡± ¡°You just wait and see. When you lose, I will let you give me a kiss like a good girl!¡± Yang Guang retaliated! ¡°Get away from me!¡± Mu Xiaowan blushed and cursed as she quickly stepped into the car. She stepped hard on the gas, and the engine roared to life as if it was about to explode. It then jerked forward and sped off. ¡°Bro, what is wrong with you today? Don¡¯t you know who she is? She is not to be messed with!¡± Chen Jianguo walked over and asked with an irritated look. ¡°Who cares who she is. No one can be this arrogant and unreasonable in my presence!¡± Yang Guang replied. Then, he immediately asked, ¡°Brother Chen, shouldn¡¯t you give me the money now?¡± ¡°Yep, let¡¯s go and talk inside.¡± After they got back to the store, Chen Jianguo looked at Yang Guang. ¡°You heard it, that red bracket fungus was sold for $7,000. Along with the money for today¡¯s Tianma, you just managed to gather $10,000. I will give you another $5,000!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t!¡± When Yang Guang heard this, he hurriedly stopped him. ¡°We agreed that it would be $6,000. Anything extra is all yours¡ªthat was our agreement!¡± ¡°How is that? I just made a couple of calls and didn¡¯t do much, and you still need the money!¡± Chen Jianguo laughed. ¡°That¡¯s two different things!¡± Yang Guang looked very serious and said solemnly, ¡°An agreement is an agreement. No matter how much I need the money, I can¡¯t take it from you, bro. Besides, I will have everything when I make the trip to the mountain tomorrow. The $1,000 is nothing.¡± ¡°Young man, I am impressed!¡± Chen Jianguo gave him a thumbs up and let out heartfelt praise. This kid was young but sensible and understood the way things work. Nowadays, it was rare to find young people who comported themselves like this! He even came up with the proposal that if Yang Guang didn¡¯t want to accept the $1,000 from him, he would simply make it a temporary loan, just to solve the most immediate issue first. The rest could be paid back later. However, Yang Guang outright rejected this notion, saying that he didn¡¯t like to owe anybody money. He just wanted to rely on himself, and he was very confident in his abilities. With no other choice, Chen Jianguo had to take back the $4,000 and hand it over to Yang Guang. He Hua came back to him. When she heard that he had sold the medicinal materials and somehow gathered another $4,000, she was a little dumbfounded. She had been talking to her sister-in-law and had no idea what was happening out front. Now that Yang Guang had finished his business, He Hua asked, ¡°Are you ready to go back to the village?¡± ¡°I¡¯m not in a hurry. If you have something else to do, I can wait for you for a while!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°I don¡¯t have anything else to do really. I just came over to chat with my cousin and get the clothes that she was giving me!¡± He Hua said with a smile. Yang Guang glanced at those colorful clothes and knew that they were children¡¯s clothing. It was obvious that those were clothes outgrown by children in Chen Jianguo¡¯s household, and they were being passed on to He Hua¡¯s children. If Fu Zhonghua was doing so well in the city, there was no reason why his children would be wearing hand-me-downs from other people¡¯s households. It was obvious that he might have abandoned his family and left them to their own devices. In front of Chen Jianguo, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t say much, so he followed He Hua as she put the bag of clothing in the backpack. When she put the backpack on again, the two got on the electric scooter. As they left Hongqi Town, they entered the windy country road heading back to Qingshan Village. Yang Guang could feel He Hua¡¯s arms around his waist again! With her body pressed up against him, that familiar feeling returned. At first, the two were silent. After they had moved along for a while, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°He Hua, doesn¡¯t Fu Zhonghua send you any money?¡± He Hua was quiet for a moment. ¡°Don¡¯t mention him. I don¡¯t want to talk about it.¡± ¡°All right.¡± Yang Guang thought that this was a private matter between them, and it was rather inappropriate for him to probe, so he let it go. He dropped the matter. Instead, he began to enjoy the feeling of He Hua¡¯s soft chest against him, and he felt pretty good the rest of the way. But when they got close to the entrance of the village, He Hua suddenly released her hands and called out, ¡°Stop!¡± Yang Guang was taken by surprise and slammed on the brakes. As a result, He Hua suddenly banged into him from the back. Yang Guang forgot all about that great sensation he felt just a moment ago and looked back at her instead. ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Why did you yell? You startled me!¡± ¡°Let¡¯s go in separately. If anyone sees us like this in the village, I¡¯m afraid people will gossip!¡± He Hua was a little embarrassed, as she said this with her head down. Seeing her bashfulness, Yang Guang understood immediately. There were mostly women in the village. If someone were to see them coming back on the same electric scooter, there was no telling what kind of awful rumor would be weaved! Therefore, Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°You are very thoughtful. All right, why don¡¯t you ride the bike back first? It won¡¯t take me long to walk back home.¡± ¡°Well, I¡¯ll leave the backpack in front of the clinic when I get there.¡± With that, He Hua got on the bike and left soon after. Watching her departing figure, Yang Guang suddenly felt a little lost. He stood in a daze for quite a while before heading back to the village. He didn¡¯t notice, however, that in the field not far away, deep on the footpath, a pair of eyes were watching them with a surprised look. Those eyes had seen everything that had taken place just now! Chapter 10 - Pretty Secretary Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The man hiding deep within the footpath was Sun Dawei. He was one of the villagers from Qingshan Village and was twenty years old. Sun Dawei had a husky physique but was known to be a little odd. He was not exactly low in IQ, but he was unsophisticated, and his mental state was not exactly stable. After he saw He Hua and Yang Guang leave, Sun Dawei let out a strange laugh and began heading home quickly. Meanwhile, Yang Guang returned home. He took out all $4,000 and slapped the wad into Wu Xiaolian¡¯s hand with great pride. When she saw those brand-new, crisp hundred dollar bills, Wu Xiaolian was, without a doubt, surprised. After she heard about what was going on, she asked, a little worried, ¡°Xiaoguang, how can you gamble like this when you have no certainty? What if you lose the bet?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry, ma¡¯am, I will not lose!¡± Yang Guang smiled confidently. He then said, ¡°I have already thought about it. When I get that $10,000, we¡¯ll grow the Tianma at home. We have to rely on this to make our fortune!¡± ¡°If it could work, that would be so great.¡± When she saw the bright smile on his face, Wu Xiaolian couldn¡¯t help but smile at him. Both of them looked at each other with a face full of smiles, and suddenly she blushed. ¡°You know what? I have to check on Yaya. It¡¯s almost time for her to wake up.¡± ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll check on the clinic. I haven¡¯t been there all day, and who knows if anyone has tried to reach me!¡± With that, Yang Guang turned to head out again. The business at the clinic was not particularly bustling, because people in the village didn¡¯t have much money. At best, they would come occasionally to purchase painkillers or antibiotics. Sometimes, an entire day would go by with no one showing up at the door. But this was his profession, after all, and Yang Guang still insisted on being a professional. For the past couple of days, he had gone into the mountain to collect medicinal materials and didn¡¯t spend much time at the clinic. However, whenever he had the time, he¡¯d rather go and check on his clinic. After he was out of the house, he headed east and it didn¡¯t take him long to arrive at the other end of the village. Just as he took out the keys to open the door, Yang Guang stopped when he saw a car approaching from the other end of the village. This car was a rare sight in Qingshan Village! Like most men, Yang Guang had a deep affinity toward cars. So, when he saw a car heading his way, it was natural for him to take another look. As the car approached, he saw its logo, and his eyes suddenly became as round as saucers! ¡°Wow, the latest Audi!¡± Inwardly, Yang Guang was amazed. He estimated that this car must have cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Who could be this rich? Just as he was wondering who it was, the car stopped right in front of him. Then, the window on the passenger¡¯s side slowly lowered. A beautiful girl smiled and asked him, ¡°Excuse me, is this Qingshan Village?¡± ¡°Yeah, YES! Who are you?¡± Seeing the girl smile, looking as beautiful as a flower, Yang Guang was a little stunned, as he asked dumbly. ¡°My name is Xu Ling, and I am the new Village Secretary!¡± the girl replied. ¡°What?¡± Yang Guang was still in a daze, and he seemed taken aback when he heard this. He hurriedly asked, ¡°The new secretary is a woman?¡± ¡°Yes, is that so strange?¡± Xu Ling smiled amusingly, then asked, ¡°I just arrived today, and I have no idea where the village headquarters is. Can you take me there?¡± ¡°Sure, Sure!¡± Before Yang Guang could recover from the shock, he nodded blankly. When the young man who was driving saw how he was behaving, he let out a laugh. ¡°Then get in the car already! Don¡¯t act like a silly boy!¡± ¡°Meng Li, stop it!¡± Xu Ling frowned and turned around to glare at him. She then turned to Yang Guang and said, ¡°I¡¯m so sorry. My friend has been driving for a long time, and he¡¯s not in the best mood.¡± When he saw her infectious and inviting smile, Yang Guang didn¡¯t care so much about the dude. He opened the door and got into the backseat of the car. After that, he forgot about everything else. As he touched the leather seats and checked out the spacious interior and its exquisite d¨¦cor, he felt incredibly envious. When the car entered the village, it quickly attracted the attention of many people. The villagers had never seen a luxury car before, and they had all come out of their houses to take a look at it. When they saw the car driving into the yard of the village headquarters, somebody finally came to their senses and had quickly gone to inform the village chief. Xu Ling got out of the car and looked around the yard of the village headquarters. Then she looked at the dark green mountain in the distance, and her mood immediately brightened. She stretched her arms with a smile, ¡°The air here is so fresh!¡± Meng Li was not nearly as optimistic as she was. As he assessed the dilapidated state of the village headquarters, he said, ¡°Lingling, are you kidding me? Do you really plan on living in this place for a year?¡± ¡°Of course. Since I chose to come to the countryside to help the poor, I must do a good job!¡± Xu Ling nodded emphatically. Meng Li watched her as a touch of unwillingness flashed across his eyes. ¡°But this place is a dump! You saw it too. The houses in the village are pretty shabby. This is a place where even birds won¡¯t shit on!¡± ¡°Hey! Watch what you are saying!¡± Yang Guang was very displeased when he heard this, and glared at Meng Li. ¡°Who said that birds don¡¯t shit here? Do you want me to find some bird shit to show you?¡± ¡°Relax! It¡¯s just a metaphor! But really, I didn¡¯t expect that such a poor village like yours even existed in the world!¡± Meng Li gave him the side-eye as he continued in a sarcastic tone. ¡°Hey, why do you have to talk like that?¡± Yang Guang was even more pissed off now. He rolled up his sleeves and wanted to teach Meng Li a lesson! Finally, Xu Ling quickly intervened by standing between the two. ¡°That¡¯s enough, stop!¡± Having said that, she turned around and glared at Meng Li. ¡°If you don¡¯t like it, you can go now, but don¡¯t create trouble for me!¡± ¡°Fine, I won¡¯t say anything!¡± Meng Li quickly shut up when he saw her getting angry for real. He turned around to open the trunk instead. Two suitcases and a backpack shaped like a little bear¡ªthese were all that Xu Ling brought with her. When Yang Guang saw this, he was a little curious. He asked, ¡°So, Secretary Xu, are you planning on living here at the village headquarters?¡± ¡°Yes, I asked before I came. I was told that there are rooms here,¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Who told you that? Surely, not the village chief?¡± Yang Guang asked tentatively. Xu Ling nodded, ¡°Yes.¡± Yang Guang didn¡¯t know what to say, so he smiled sheepishly. ¡°Then you have been fooled. The house is here, but you should take a look and see if it is even habitable.¡± ¡°Really?¡± Xu Ling was taken aback as she walked quickly to the house that was the village headquarters. There were a total of five rooms. Even though the windows and doors were intact, the rooms themselves were a total mess. Two of them had leaky ceilings and there were water stains on the walls and the floors. The other three were not much better. There was garbage everywhere, and it was so dirty that it was simply inhabitable! When she saw this, Xu Ling was confounded, to say the least. ¡°I told you this place is horrible; do you believe me now?¡± Meng Li sneered next to them, then proposed, ¡°Let¡¯s go back. We will tell uncle that this place is too subpar, and we should go to another place!¡± Xu Ling didn¡¯t say a word; the good mood that she had been in before was completely gone. However, at this time, Yang Guang said, ¡°Secretary Xu, although the village headquarters is inhabitable, there are other places in the village. Why don¡¯t you come with me to my house?¡± ¡°Huh?¡± As soon as Meng Li heard this, he immediately turned his head with an alarming look. ¡°Hey, you are not thinking of something untoward, are you?¡± Chapter 11 - Older Woman, Good Omen Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was speechless as he glared at Meng Li. ¡°Enough of your dirty thoughts. I have no dishonorable intentions. I was just being kind!¡± ¡°Really? You don¡¯t strike me as some good-hearted benefactor. How kind could you be?¡± Meng Li asked with a smirk. ¡°Of course I am!¡± Yang Guang nodded as he pointed to the house. ¡°Let me ask you this¡ªeven if that place is habitable, do you really think that Secretary Xu, a girl, should be living there?¡± ¡°That¡¯s¡­¡± Meng Li couldn¡¯t find the words to rebuke him and only replied after a moment of being caught off guard. ¡°Even so, how is it safer for her to stay at your place?¡± ¡°Of course it is. Under my protection, who would dare hurt Secretary Xu?¡± Yang Guang proclaimed confidently as he patted his chest. ¡°I¡¯d be even more worried!¡± Meng Li couldn¡¯t help but laugh as he turned to look at Xu Ling. ¡°Look at the bunch of them in this village. If you live here, won¡¯t you be afraid of being taken¡­¡± ¡°Shut it!¡± Xu Ling was red in the face as she glared at him fiercely. Then she turned to Yang Guang. ¡°Are there any spare rooms in your house?¡± ¡°Of course!¡± Yang Guang nodded rapidly. ¡°It¡¯s just my sister-in-law and me. You can have your own room, or you can bunk with her!¡± Xu Ling felt quite relieved when she heard this. ¡°That¡¯s great. Let¡¯s have a look at your house!¡± ¡°Great!¡± Yang Guang was overjoyed and nodded enthusiastically. This made Meng Li anxious. He reached his hand out to try and stop them. However, at this moment, a thin, dark man in his fifties ran into the yard. His eyes lit up when he saw Xu Ling. He hurried over and asked, ¡°Are you Secretary Xu? ¡° ¡°That¡¯s me. Are you Village Chief Sun?¡± Xu Ling asked. ¡°Yes! I am!¡± Sun Guoying wiped his hands on his pants and stretched out one of them, grinning widely, wanting to shake her hand. Xu Ling hesitated for a moment but she eventually extended her hand as well. Holding her soft and delicate hand, Sun Guoying was overcome with emotion. He said with a smile, ¡°Secretary Xu, I didn¡¯t expect you to arrive so soon. I was going to find someone to clean up the house in a couple of days. Since you got here early, why don¡¯t you stay at my place? I have a separate, vacant room, which is very clean!¡± ¡°Oh¡­ it¡¯s all right. There¡¯s no need for that!¡± Xu Ling pulled her hand back and shook her head. ¡°I have decided to stay at his house!¡± ¡°What?¡± Sun Guoying was stunned for a second before he turned to look at Yang Guang who was grinning gleefully. He hurriedly walked over and said in a low voice, ¡°What do you think you are doing? Go home!¡± ¡°Uncle Guoying, did you plan this? No wonder Secretary Xu didn¡¯t know about the true state of the village headquarters. You didn¡¯t tell her the truth, did you?¡± Yang Guang asked him with a cold laugh. ¡°You! What nonsense are you talking about?¡± Sun Guoying glared at him. ¡°Go on back home and don¡¯t create trouble! Otherwise, just wait and see how I¡¯ll deal with you!¡± In the past, Yang Guang wouldn¡¯t have dared to provoke the village chief, but now it was quite different. He scoffed, ¡°I¡¯m determined to create trouble!¡± He could see that Sun Guoying already knew that the new secretary would be a woman, so he made the false promise that there was a place for her to stay. However, he never had any intention to clean up the headquarters. It was all just a ruse so he could invite Xu Ling to stay at his place! As to what evil intentions Sun Guoying might have, that was something only he himself would know. Yang Guang knew that he was not so bold as to do anything severely out of line to the secretary, but this man was lustful. It was not unimaginable that he would take some advantage of her while she was staying with him! Xu Ling was an attractive woman, and Yang Guang was now bursting with a sense of justice. He vowed to never allow her to be taken advantage of by anyone! So he turned to Xu Ling and suggested, ¡°Secretary Xu, it¡¯s getting late. Let¡¯s go back to my place. My sister-in-law shall cook up something delicious to welcome you!¡± ¡°Sounds good!¡± Xu Ling nodded. She had just graduated from college and didn¡¯t have much experience with the wider society. However, between Yang Guang and Sun Guoying, she was more willing to put her trust in this inexperienced youth¡ªsimply of because of the honesty in his eyes. As such, Xu Ling picked up her suitcase and prepared to leave with Yang Guang. Right at this moment, Meng Li suddenly spoke, ¡°Xu Ling, are you serious about staying with this kid? Aren¡¯t you afraid that something might happen?¡± Xu Ling nodded. ¡°I trust him!¡± Meng Li¡¯s body trembled with anger. ¡°Then don¡¯t you regret it! Once you settle down, you may not be able to leave this place, ever, and end up raising a bunch of kids!¡± ¡°What are you talking about?¡± Xu Ling frowned as her eyes reddened. What he said was plainly an unabashed insult! Just as her temper flared, Xu Ling saw a flash in front of her as a figure flew by. This was immediately followed by Meng Li¡¯s scream. When she turned, she saw that he had fallen to the ground. Xu Ling was stunned. Meng Li was the vice president of the martial arts club at school; how could he be knocked down with just one kick? At this moment, Meng Li was also a little dazed. He clutched his chest and looked at Yang Guang. ¡°What are you doing?!¡± ¡°I am really sick of you and your poor attitude. I don¡¯t know what your relationship with Secretary Xu is, but you deserve a beating if you keep talking trash!¡± Yang Guang squinted his eyes and gestured for Meng Li to come at him. ¡°If you have more to say, then get up. Let me teach you a lesson on manners!¡± ¡°You¡¯re so dead!¡± Having been brought to the ground with a single kick, Meng Li felt that he had suffered a tremendous insult. He got up from the ground and rushed at his opponent. He had been caught off guard and was ambushed in that first attack. If given time to ready himself and exercise his martial arts skills, he would undoubtedly be able to teach this insolent boy a lesson! As soon as he got closer and before he even had the chance to show off his moves, there was a flash before him. Lo and behold, he had already received a loud slap across the face! The slap was so hard that Meng Li was thrown into a daze. He saw nothing but stars circling him and almost lost his balance. ¡°That¡¯s enough! Stop fighting!¡± Xu Ling quickly grabbed Yang Guang. ¡°He¡¯ll get seriously hurt if you continue!¡± Right now, Meng Li just wanted to bury himself into the ground. He had been beaten twice in a row by a teenage boy from some village. He had completely lost all dignity! He covered his cheek with one hand and pointed at Yang Guang with the other. ¡°Just you wait and see! I¡¯m not done with you!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t you worry. I will be waiting for you right here. Now, get out of Qingshan Village unless you want me to beat the crap out of you!¡± Yang Guang roared. Knowing that he gotten on their bad side, Meng Li gave Xu Ling another look. Seeing that she didn¡¯t even spare him a glance, he had no choice but to get in the car and leave. As the car was driven away, Yang Guang looked at Sun Guoying who was next to him. ¡°Uncle Guoying, would you still like to take Secretary Xu to your house?¡± ¡°No, no, there¡¯s no need to!¡± Sun Guoying had been stunned speechless. When did this kid become such a capable fighter? Wasn¡¯t he a weakling who couldn¡¯t even go up against the women in the village? When he witnessed Yang Guang¡¯s display of prowess, Sun Guoying decided it was better for him to back down and didn¡¯t say another word. And Yang Guang, as the winner, walked with his head high. With the suitcase in hand, he left the village headquarters with Xu Ling. The villagers watched the two as they walked through. Xu Ling asked him, ¡°And your name is?¡± ¡°I¡¯m Yang Guang. I¡¯m nineteen. How about you, Secretary Xu?¡± Yang Guang asked in return. ¡°I¡¯m twenty-two, three years older than you,¡± Xu Ling replied. Yang Guang smiled. ¡°I see, so you¡¯re older¡­.¡± Chapter 12 - Taking a Yard When Given an Inch Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang stopped himself mid-sentence as he thought better of it. Instead, he decided to joke with her. ¡°You¡¯re older than me? You don¡¯t look like it; I thought you were only eighteen!¡± ¡°No way.¡± Although Yang Guang¡¯s joke was at her expense, Xu Ling just smiled without saying anything more. She was not particularly uptight. What¡¯s more, Yang Guang had taken the initiative to help her deal with Meng Li, and was very grateful to him. Hence, she regarded the saying, ¡°older women bring good omen¡± as nothing more than a joke. When Yang Guang noted that she was not offended, he asked cheerfully, ¡°By the way, Secretary Xu, that Meng Li ¨C is he your boyfriend?¡± ¡°No, he is just a classmate from college. He¡¯s from this area, so he insisted on bringing me here personally!¡± Xu Ling explained. Yang Guang remarked, ¡°That¡¯s for the best!¡± Xu Ling was surprised. ¡°Huh?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t read too much into it, but just one look at that guy, and you can tell that he¡¯s not a good person. He was really disrespectful to you. It¡¯s for the best that you don¡¯t have anything going on with him!¡± Yang Guang concluded. Xu Ling merely smiled without replying. They didn¡¯t have to walk for long before they arrived at the Yang residence. When they entered the courtyard, Wu Xiaolian, who was playing with Yaya in her arms, froze for a moment before she stood up. ¡°This is?¡± ¡°Sister-in-law, let me introduce you!¡± Yang Guang smiled and took Yaya from her arms. ¡°This is Secretary Xu Ling, the new party secretary of our village!¡± ¡°Oh, it¡¯s the new secretary! Nice to meet you!¡± When Xiaolian saw Xu Ling¡¯s slender figure and beautiful, charming face, she instantly grew a liking to her. At that moment she even thought, if only this girl could be Yang Guang¡¯s wife! Wu Xiaolian herself was a pretty lady, and when Xu Ling met her, her worries and concerns were dispelled. She took Xiaolian¡¯s hand and said, ¡°Oh don¡¯t mind me; I will be intruding for a few days!¡± ¡°What do you mean ¡®a few days¡¯? You will be living with us from now on! Don¡¯t bother with the village headquarters even if Sun Guoying repairs and cleans the house. You can¡¯t live there!¡± Yang Guang exclaimed. It didn¡¯t take long for Xiaolian to figure out what was going on. She quickly added, ¡°That¡¯s right, it is too dangerous for you to live there by yourself. Just stay with us; we¡¯ll treat you just like one of our own!¡± Aside from that, she secretly thought to herself, ¡°This is very good. For as long as this new secretary stays with us, she¡¯ll be seeing Yang Guang every day. I¡¯m sure they¡¯ll develop feelings for each other over time.¡± With such thoughts running through her mind, Xiaolian¡¯s expression changed accordingly as she regarded Xu Ling ¨C as if she was already her sister-in-law! Xu Ling was greatly moved by their enthusiastic welcome. ¡°Alright, then let¡¯s do that. But I couldn¡¯t stay here for free, I will pay rent!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t stand on ceremony, you may stay here for as long as you like. Come, let me show you to your room!¡± Xiaolian took Xu Ling¡¯s hand eagerly as they went into the house. Yaya was sucking on her fingers in Yang Guang¡¯s arms. Her big eyes blankly watched everything that was happening around her, not quite understanding what was going on. Xiaolian and Xu Ling proceeded to clean up the room, while Yang Guang stayed outside to watch the child. He thought that it would be better for him not to interfere their work, and that he should remain out of their way. It was now getting late. Xu Ling made the bed she was going to sleep in, and all her clothes had been put away in the cabinet. During this process, she and Xiaolian were like sisters as they chatted and laughed with each other. Such a sight warmed Yang Guang¡¯s heart. Even if by just a little, this family could finally become a little more lively. Further into the night, smoke began to rise from the chimneys. Xiaolian was cooking in the kitchen, while Yang Guang and Xu Ling played with Yaya; the atmosphere was very cozy and homey. Just then, a woman peeked in from outside the yard. ¡°Yang Guang, I need some medicine!¡± It was He Hua. Yang Guang froze for a moment before he got up and asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°I have a stomach ache,¡± He Hua answered him at the door instead of coming in. ¡°I got it, wait just a minute!¡± Yang Guang nodded and got up, intending to hand Yaya over to Xiaolian. But Xu Ling took her instead. ¡°Give her to me.¡± ¡°Thank you.¡± Yang Guang smiled, and turned to step out. He accompanied He Hua to the clinic at the other end of the village. At this time, every household was busy preparing dinner, and no one would notice the two of walking about. He Hua asked him in a low voice, ¡°You sure are a crafty one, tricking such a pretty lady into your territory?¡± Yang Guang was stunned by her comment and turned to her. ¡°What are you saying? She¡¯s the new secretary, and I just wanted to be sure she¡¯s safe!¡± ¡°Furthermore, if you had to stay at the headquarters with Sun Guoying hanging around, could you be at ease?¡± He Hua responded with giving him a teasing side-eye. ¡°I¡¯m just joking around, why are you so serious?¡± ¡°Serious? I am just afraid that you think that I¡¯m some sleaze!¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Hmph, but you aren¡¯t that pure!¡± At this moment, the two of them arrived at the clinic. Yang Guang was stunned for a moment by her remark. He looked at her. ¡°Why would you say that?¡± He Hua bit down on her lips and glanced at him. ¡°This afternoon while we were on the electric bike, you didn¡¯t miss the opportunity to take advantage of me!¡± ¡°Um¡­¡± Yang Guang had nothing to say for himself. Seeing her bashful expression, he scratched his head and said shyly, ¡°I didn¡¯t do it on purpose; it was you who took the initiative!¡± ¡°Oh get out! There¡¯s no way!¡± Upset, He Hua glared at him as a blush spread on her face. This pouting defiance was somehow more alluring. Yang Guang swallowed hard and made sure there was no one around before he leaned over and asked her in a low voice, ¡°So, tell me the truth, did you do it on purpose?¡± ¡°Say that one more time and I¡¯m going home! Forget about the medicine!¡± He Hua stomped her feet, then turned to walk the other way. Realizing that she was being serious, Yang Guang hurriedly held her arm. ¡°Alright, alright, I was mistaken. I won¡¯t mention it again!¡± At this, He Hua stopped in her tracks and cursed in a low voice, ¡°Dummy!¡± Yang Guang let out a dry laugh. He quickly unlocked the door and entered the clinic. By this time, the sky had already completely darkened. The room was unlit, so he went straight for the light switch. But as soon as the light was turned on, an exclamation came from behind. When he turned to look, he found that He Hua had tripped over the threshold, and her whole body was flying toward him! Yang Guang didn¡¯t have much time to think before he reached out to catch her. However, his hands happened to land on her chest! He was able to catch her by holding onto two particularly soft sections. The tension between them was so thick that it could be cut with a knife, He Hua¡¯s face was burning as she quickly steadied herself. Then, she shoved him away hard. ¡°You¡¯re pushing it too far!¡± ¡°No, I didn¡¯t mean to! That was to prevent you from falling!¡± Yang Guang didn¡¯t know whether to laugh or cry. There was no way to prove his innocence now! ¡°Oh yeah? You sure know where to aim!¡± He Hua replied sharply. ¡°No, I moved before I could think; please don¡¯t be mad!¡± Yang Guang laughed, embarrassed, then ran off to get her medicine. He Hua watched him scurry away as she bit her lips.. There was an indescribable feeling that filled her heart. Chapter 13 - A Sprain Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio He Hua didn¡¯t mean for anything to happen between Yang Guang and her. From her perspective, she just felt that Yang Guang was so full of energy, that people naturally gravitated to him. He Hua even believed that what she felt for him was a kind of sisterly affection, that she simply felt that this young man was a great person! But because Fu Zhonghua hadn¡¯t been home for a long time, and she was a woman in her prime without a man for company, a desire naturally arose within her. This urge had compelled her to get a lot closer to Yang Guang than she anticipated. After Yang Guang found the medicine, he handed them to He Hua. ¡°Try this first; two after dinner, and two tomorrow morning. If you still feel any discomfort, I will give you a checkup either in the afternoon or tomorrow evening!¡± He Hua gave him a sideway glance. ¡°Can¡¯t you do the checkup now? Or, are you thinking about that great beauty at home and want to get back to her as quickly as possible?¡± That was exactly what was on his mind. Secretary Xu had just arrived at his home, and he didn¡¯t want the ladies to wait on him to start dinner, so he wanted to go back as soon as possible. But the way He Hua questioned him clearly had a hidden meaning. So, he shook his head. ¡°Of course not, I just think it¡¯s too late now. If someone sees us, just remember that my reputation doesn¡¯t matter as much as yours!¡± ¡°How thoughtful of you!¡± Seeing the earnest expression on his face, He Hua chuckled. She then took the bottle of medicine and asked, ¡°How much is it?¡± ¡°It¡¯s just a few dollars; don¡¯t worry about it. Just have it!¡± Yang Guang waved his hand in a gesture of generosity. But He Hua rolled her eyes at him. ¡°Is a few dollars is not money still? Do you think I am someone who takes advantage of people?¡± She dug into her bra, pulled out a five-dollar bill, and placed it on the table. Yang Guang couldn¡¯t refuse, so he nodded, ¡°Well, I¡¯ll take it then.¡± ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll be off first, and you can leave a little later!¡± With that, He Hua turned and left the clinic. He watched her as she walked away. And that swaying hip, Yang Guang was a little dazed. After a few minutes, he turned off the light and locked the door, then ran back home. Sure enough, when he got back, Xiaolian and Xu Ling were both waiting at the dinner table. He found it rather strange that both their eyes were a little red, as if they had been crying. Puzzled, Yang Guang scratched his head. ¡°What¡¯s the matter? Are you crying because you are too hungry?¡± His question made the two women burst into laughter simultaneously. Xiaolian gave him a sideway glance. ¡°Silly boy, what an idea!¡± Xu Ling blinked for a moment, then said, ¡°Xiaolian told me about what your family has been through. I realized that it hasn¡¯t been easy for you guys, so I got emotional!¡± ¡°Oh, well now!¡± Yang Guang smiled once he understood what was going on. ¡°All that is in the past. Soon, the life of our family, no, our village, will be much better!¡± Clearly, Xu Ling had no idea what he meant, but she nodded emphatically. ¡°That¡¯s right, I came here in order to help the village out of poverty, so that everyone can have a better and more comfortable life!¡± ¡°Yes, Secretary Xu is a college graduate, and must know a lot. You will definitely be able to help us!¡± Xiaolian added. Seeing that the two had forgotten their gloominess from earlier, Yang Guang smiled, ¡°That¡¯s great; let¡¯s thank Secretary Xu in advance today!¡± ¡°You¡¯re welcome.¡± Xu Ling smiled brightly and her mood was lifted. After dinner, Xiaolian took Yaya to the bedroom to put her to sleep. Yang Guang was thinking of cultivating his abilities, and with the excuse that he had to go into the mountains early tomorrow morning to collect medicinal materials, he retired to his room as well. Sitting cross-legged, he followed the formula provided in the Method of Divine Farmer, he quickly entered a state of deep meditation. After some time, as Yang Guang detached his consciousness from the physical realm, he was startled by a loud bang from outside. The sound came from the yard. He quickly got up and went out the room. It was deep into the night and the yard was dark. However, there was a figure in white seated on the ground. Yang Guang was a little taken aback, and asked with urgency, ¡°Who¡¯s there?¡± ¡°It¡¯s, it¡¯s me¡­¡± Xu Ling sounded like she was in pain, and Yang Guang felt bad for her. He quickly went over. It was only when he got close that he realized she was in nothing more than a pair of shorts and a tank top. She seemed to be unable to get up. Seeing a girl so scantily clad, Yang Guang was a little hesitant to get closer. So he asked, ¡°What happened, Secretary Xu?¡± ¡°I was just taking a shower, and I slipped on my way back. I think I sprained my ankle!¡± Xu Ling¡¯s voice was a little strange. There was pain, but she also sounded embarrassed, and nervous. Yang Guang instantly understood what might have happened. The shower area at his house was outside, an area that was surrounded by the house and the outer wall. The plastic bag for storing water was placed on the roof. When the bag was exposed to the sun all day, it would still be warm enough at night. It was a very convenient way to take a shower. Qingshan¡¯s residents were too poor to afford solar panels, so every household used this method. Xu Ling adapted to this quickly enough, but she hadn¡¯t expected that when she tried to make her way back in the dark in such unfamiliar terrain, that she would trip so badly. To Yang Guang, she was an authority figure of sorts, so he was a little anxious when she said that she had sprained her ankle. ¡°What should I do? Shall I rub it for you?¡± ¡°What?¡± Xu Ling was stunned; it was not her intention to alarm Yang Guang like this. After all, she was not wearing much, which was incredibly embarrassing for her. Nonetheless, she had woken him up, and now he wanted to help her out of the kindness of his heart. She gave it some thought. ¡°It¡¯s alright. Could you help me find something to use as a cane? I just need it to get back to my room.¡± ¡°That won¡¯t work. We don¡¯t know how bad the injury is; if it is serious, you won¡¯t be able to walk for a while!¡± Yang Guang made a decision. He uttered an apology, stepped forward to grab hold of Xu Ling¡¯s legs, and picked her up! ¡°Hey!¡± Xu Ling let out a scream, but she immediately covered her own mouth. If Xiaolian was awakened in the middle of the night by them, that would only be even more embarrassing! Therefore, even though her heart was beating wildly, she kept silent as she allowed Yang Guang to carry her into her room. It was her first time being carried by a man like this. The emotions within her were as confusing as could be! She was so confused that it was not until Yang Guang turned on the light, and placed her on the bed, that Xu Ling finally came to her senses. Upon which, her first reaction was to quickly pull the blanket over her thighs. Yang Guang hadn¡¯t actually ogled at her much, just a couple of stolen glances here and there. He was surprised at how fair and smooth Xu Ling¡¯s skin was. But he focused most of his attention on her ankle. The area was already red and very swollen. He didn¡¯t need to touch it to know that Xu Ling was in a lot of pain. After taking a look, Yang Guang raised his head. ¡°Secretary Xu, the injury here is pretty serious. You need to get it treated!¡± ¡°You¡¯re a doctor, you should be able to attend to it, right?¡± Xu Ling asked. ¡°Of course I can. I¡¯m confident that when you get up tomorrow morning, you will have fully recovered. But I have to give you a massage first!¡± Yang Guang looked at her fair and delicate foot and swallowed hard as he spoke. Seeing his reaction, Xu Ling¡¯s face turned beet red. Chapter 14 - Awkwardness Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang swallowed hard and let out a grunt. Both of them were flustered. A young man and woman alone in a room. The atmosphere was understandably awkward. Fortunately, Yang Guang had pretty thick skin. He laughed, acting as if nothing happened, as he crouched down to examine Xu Ling¡¯s ankle. ¡°The tendon is messed up, but a massage using my special technique should make it better.¡± Xu Ling thought that he was merely boasting, but there was nothing she could do. She mumbled, ¡°Then please give it a try. If it doesn¡¯t work, we can just wrap it with some bandage.¡± ¡°That won¡¯t be necessary. Watch this!¡± Having said that, Yang Guang took hold of her slim foot with one hand, as the other hand pressed against the swollen ankle. A strange sensation came over her. Xu Ling did not feel any pain, but instead a sense of warmth in the sprained area, as well as a tingling sensation. Greatly surprised, her eyes widened, as she looked at Yang Guang in disbelief. At this moment, Yang Guang was completely absorbed in his work. He didn¡¯t have any remaining focus for anything other than using that mysterious energy inside his body to heal the wound. The room was calm and silent as Xu Ling watched him in a daze. As she watched, she found that when he was concentrating, he was actually quite good-looking! She blushed and thought to herself that she must have lost her mind; she ought to be quite ashamed of her straying thoughts! The more she thought about it, the more complicated her feelings became. She completely forgot that her foot was still in the hands of another. Yang Guang continued to massage for a while in this manner. When he saw that the swelling gradually disappeared and the skin returned to its original fairness, he let out a sigh of relief. Raising his head, he met Xu Ling¡¯s sparkling eyes. Yang Guang was stunned for a moment. ¡°Secretary Xu, what¡¯s the matter?¡± Xu Ling avoided his gaze. ¡°It¡¯s nothing. Don¡¯t call me Secretary Xu, just call me Xu Ling!¡± ¡°Right. I will just call you Xu Ling!¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Well, is my foot all better now?¡± Xu Ling raised her head and looked down at her foot. A look of surprise was written all over her face. She realized that her ankle was completely healed! How could this be? Just moments ago, it was terribly swollen. How could the swelling disappear in just the blink of an eye? Seeing her astonishment, Yang Guang laughed. ¡°How about that? My medical skills are amazing, right?¡± ¡°They are! How did you do it?¡± Xu Ling asked in surprise. ¡°I can¡¯t let you in on that; it¡¯s my unique, secret skill, and people can¡¯t know about it!¡± Yang Guang put on a serious expression, then changed the subject. ¡°By the way, Xu Ling, could you try walking a little?¡± ¡°Right!¡± Xu Ling was so pleased that she forgot about everything else. She threw off the blanket and jumped out of the bed. After taking a few steps on the ground, she felt that her ankle was completely back to normal, without the slightest sensation of pain. She gushed, ¡°This is really amazing! You¡¯re just amazing!¡± But, when she turned, Yang Guang was just staring at her. She looked down at herself, and remembered that she was wearing nothing more than a tank top and shorts. The silly boy¡¯s eyes were fixed on her thighs! Xu Ling couldn¡¯t do anything about it. But secretly, she was pleased, knowing full well that it was on account of her good figure. She didn¡¯t get mad, but made a low cough instead. ¡°Hey, have you seen enough?¡± ¡°Haha, sorry!¡± Having been caught red handed, Yang Guang was a little awkward. He rubbed his nose and said, ¡°Well, it¡¯s late, you should get some rest.¡± ¡°¡­¡± Xu Ling was speechless as she watched him wipe the blood from his nose all over his chin. She wanted to laugh but thought it was inappropriate, so she resisted the urge. ¡°Alright, but when you leave, the first thing you should do is to wash your face.¡± The strange look on her face had Yang Guang a little confused. However, when he got outside and looked in the mirror, he finally understood what was going on! It was not snot that had come out of his nose, but blood! ¡°No wonder she wanted to laugh, this is a rather funny sight,¡± Yang Guang muttered under his breath, then hurried to wash his face. After returning to his room and lying down on the bed, Xu Ling¡¯s slender legs replayed again and again in his mind. It was rather frustrating. Finally, he fell asleep. What he saw in his dream was that smile and that fair and slender figure! When the first light appeared on the horizon, Yang Guang woke up from his dreams and ruffled his hair. After getting dressed, he quickly cleaned up and went out quietly. He was still a little short of the goal of ten thousand dollars, and it was now the third day. This matter was like a great rock constantly weighing down on him, and he needed to resolve it. Therefore, he couldn¡¯t afford to occupy his mind with anything else at the moment. He had to get enough medicinal materials, and make that money! As soon as he climbed the mountain, an entire morning passed by quickly. After the villagers were done with lunch, they once again sat under the big tree at the west end of the village, and chatted. But on this day, everyone was a little absentminded, chatting sporadically with one another while looking at the mountain road on the westside of the village, as if waiting for something. It wasn¡¯t until Yang Guang¡¯s figure appeared that someone shouted, ¡°Look, he¡¯s back!¡± Everyone stopped their chatter, and turned their attention to him with a burning gaze. Being stared at by everyone gave Yang Guang pause. ¡°What are you guys doing?¡± ¡°Yang Guang, what did you find today? Did you find something good again?¡± Mrs. Niu asked. ¡°All the good stuff are deep inside the mountains; they can¡¯t be found so easily?¡± Yang Guang smiled. Only then did he understand what everyone was waiting for. Everyone was waiting to see if he found anything of value! Hearing what he said, someone in the crowd snickered. ¡°Just as I thought. Yang Guang was just too damn lucky the past couple of days; how could such good luck last for long?¡± Everyone turned around to the direction of the voice, and saw that it was Sun Guoying with a puckered face. Everything became crystal clear! What happened yesterday evening had already spread throughout the village. Everyone knew by now that Yang Guang hadn¡¯t given in to the village chief. Obviously, this old man was coming over to pick a fight! Yang Guang knew what was going on too, and he smiled. ¡°The village chief is quite right, among ordinary folks, who could possibly have such good luck all the time!¡± Seeing that he might have softened a little, Sun Guoying nodded. ¡°Exactly!¡± He looked at Yang Guang. ¡°You were too boastful. Now, time is almost up, Have you collected enough money?¡± ¡°Why do you ask that, sir? Would you like to loan me some?¡± Yang Guang asked with a smile. ¡°I would have. But don¡¯t even think about it now!¡± Sun Guoying sniggered. Yang Guang kept his smile on. ¡°I know what you¡¯re trying to say, but it doesn¡¯t matter. I said that ordinary folks could not possibly have such good luck, but I am no ordinary folk!¡± Yang Guang reached into the basket on his back and took out an object. He showed it off in front of everyone. ¡°Take a look. What do you think this is?¡± ¡°Wow!¡± ¡°Oh my goodness!¡± When everyone saw what Yang Guang was holding in his hand, their eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Sun Guoying almost fell to the ground as he gasped. Leaning against the tree behind him, he looked up at Yang Guang. ¡°Is that a golden nugget?¡± Chapter 15 - Slander Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio What Yang Guang held in his hand was a golden rock that was just slightly smaller than a volleyball. This rock was shining with a golden brilliance, with some other white minerals mixed in it, but it was still mostly gold. This was exactly what Sun Guoying referred to as a gold nugget! This was a natural gold ore, the kind with a very high composition, which was extremely rare! Everyone was in a state of shock. Mrs. Niu¡¯s eyes glued to the rock, and she completely forgot about Yang Guang¡¯s existence. She asked, as if in a daze, ¡°Dear boy, you really do have the luck to make big money; that thing is over five kilos, isn¡¯t it?¡± ¡°No, no, it¡¯s about two to three kilos at most. The gold contained within is only about one or two kilos!¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°That¡¯s still a lot!¡± Mrs. Niu raised her head and looked at Yang Guang. ¡°You have come upon quite a fortune now!¡± ¡°Not exactly!¡± Yang Guang gave a slight smile. ¡°Although there is gold, it has a lot of impurities and is not pure enough for a good price!¡± ¡°Oh please, look at you! No matter what, it IS gold. You don¡¯t have to play the humble game with us!¡± Mrs. Niu slapped his shoulder and teased good-naturedly. Yang Guang laughed dryly as he looked at Sun Guoying. ¡°Is anything else that our village chief might want to add?¡± ¡°¡­¡± Sun Guoying swallowed hard, and had nothing to say. Now, he only had disdain in his heart. He hated that the gold had not been discovered by him. How was it that it was this kid who found it and picked it up?! But what he didn¡¯t know was that it was no coincidence that Yang Guang found this gold nugget. It had been wedged between the cracks of boulders. Yang Guang utilized the Art of the Five Elements in the Method of Divine Farmer to discover the area which had the gold, and it took him a lot of work to pry the boulders loose. When he noted that Sun Guoying had no comeback, Yang Guang smiled, and returned home surrounded by envious gazes. When he arrived home, he found only Xiaolian and Yaya there. Yang Guang asked curiously, ¡°Xiaolian, where is Xu Ling?¡± ¡°She went out. She¡¯s going to find someone to spruce up the village headquarters,¡± Xiaolian replied. ¡°What? She still wants to stay over there?¡± Yang Guang asked in surprise. Xiaolian looked at him and asked with a teasing smile, ¡°Why? Are you reluctant to let her go?¡± ¡°It¡¯s not that!¡± Yang Guang¡¯s face flushed red as he defended himself quickly. ¡°Didn¡¯t we agree just yesterday that it is not safe for her to live there by herself?!¡± ¡°Oh, so that¡¯s the only reason?¡± Xiaolian smiled, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Xu Ling has no wish to stay there. However, she feels that she has no proper workspace, so she wants to at least make an office space at the headquarters.¡± ¡°Oh, that¡¯s it?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s worries were instantly quelled. Then, he took out the golden nugget and handed it to Xiaolian. ¡°Look at this, we¡¯re rich!¡± ¡°Oh my goodness!¡± Xiaolian was so shocked that she pretty much didn¡¯t dare to touch it. When she realized that this really was gold, she raised her head and asked, ¡°Yang Guang, how much is this worth?¡± ¡°It¡¯s hard to say. Later, I¡¯ll go into town and ask around. I think it¡¯s at least over a hundred thousand!¡± Yang Guang answered. ¡°That¡¯s a lot! This is amazing!¡± Xiaolian¡¯s eyes were full of joy, and she couldn¡¯t help but pull him into a hug. This meant that their bodies were in contact with each other. When he felt his sister-in-law¡¯s warm and soft body, Yang Guang¡¯s heart jumped. However, at this moment, loud shouting and cursing came from the east end of the village. It sounded like there was a fight going on. When Yang Guang heard the commotion, he handed the gold nugget to Xiaolian. ¡°Find a safe place to hide this, I¡¯ll go have a look at what¡¯s going on!¡± ¡°Got it.¡± Xiaolian took the gold and went back into her room. Yang Guang left the house and ran towards the east. When he passed the village headquarters, he happened to see Xu Ling heading to the same direction in a hurry as well, so he caught up to her and asked, ¡°Xu Ling, what¡¯s happening?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know. But it seems to be coming from Fu Zhonghua¡¯s house!¡± This was Xu Ling¡¯s first morning in the village, but she had already gotten an idea of every household¡¯s situation. She had even mapped out which place belonged to which family. They hurried their pace and found that the noise was indeed coming from Fu Zhonghua¡¯s residence. When they arrived at the door, they saw that several people were already standing around in the yard. Fu Zhonghua, looking enraged, was grabbing He Hua by her hair and hitting her! The moment he laid eyes upon this scene, Yang Guang immediately yelled for him to stop, and rushed at him. There were red marks and tear stains across He Hua¡¯s face. This made Yang Guang even more incensed. He glared at Fu Zhonghua and demanded, ¡°What the h*ll are you doing!¡± ¡°Kid, you came just in time. She¡¯s made a cuckold out of me, and it was you, boy, who was getting frisky with her. How unbelievably shameless can the two of you be!¡± Fu Zhonghua was a big man. He was well over six feet, and weighed at least a hundred kilos. Overall, he was quite an intimidating person. Compared to him, Yang Guang was clearly smaller and less muscular. Upon hearing the accusations, Yang Guang, as well as Xu Ling, were stunned. ¡°Zhonghua, how could you say something so unpleasant?¡± Yang Guang looked right at Fu Zhonghua¡¯s face that was red with anger, and asked him with a sneer, ¡°From where did you hear this? Do you have any evidence?¡± ¡°I wouldn¡¯t be back if there was no evidence!¡± Fu Zhonghua turned to looked at him, and pointed at Sun Dawei. ¡°He saw it. You two were snuggling at the village entrance yesterday afternoon, and caressing each other!¡± ¡°Damn it¡­¡± Yang Guang was totally speechless. He glanced at Sun Dawei, who was had on a dumb smile. ¡°Are you blind? When did you see He Hua and I with each other?¡± ¡°It¡¯s you, I saw it!¡± Sun Dawei insisted with the same silly grin. ¡°You saw sh*t!¡± Yang Guang was so mad he could not find the right words. This was nothing more than a nasty slander, a baseless accusation, which, of course, he could not abide by! In blind rage, Yang Guang didn¡¯t care about anything else as he dashed towards Sun Dawei, and gave him a good kick! Bam! With a muffled thud, everyone watched as Sun Dawei, all one hundred kilos of his body, fly and land on a pile of haystack in the yard. Fortunately, it was a soft landing. If he had landed on the ground, he would have sustained several broken bones. Fu Zhonghua, who had been full of rage, calmed down in an instant. He watched Yang Guang with a look of surprise that flashed through his eyes. But Sun Dawei was pretty sturdy with a thick layer skin and a lot of meat under that. Although it hurt, he was not injured. He pointed at Yang Guang as he lay in the haystack. ¡°You hit me! I¡¯m going to tell my dad! He said that you wouldn¡¯t dare to hit me! ¡° ¡°Your dad is a piece of junk too!¡± Yang Guang cursed and pointed at him. ¡°Come over here and explain yourself. Who told you to spread dirty rumors about me?!¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t spread the rumors, my dad told me to say them!¡± Sun Dawei was a halfwit. Under pressure, he inadvertently told the truth. Everyone was stunned. Everything became to Yang Guang. He squinted his eyes and thought to himself, ¡°Sun Guoying, you¡¯re looking for trouble!¡± Sun Dawei was the son of the village chief. Because of what happened last night, he decided to use his idiot son to discredit Yang Guang! Yang Guang turned to look at Fu Zhonghua, and asked him coldly, ¡°Do you get it now? It was Sun Guoying who told his son to spread lies!¡± ¡°Even so, there must be something between the two of you. Why did he not pick someone else instead?¡± Fu Zhonghua argued. Yang Guang was laughed out of frustration. He took a look at him and asked, ¡°So, you are insisting that there is something between me and He Hua?¡± Chapter 16 - I Want to Thank You Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Fu Zhonghua nodded, ¡°That¡¯s right!¡± Yang Guang kept his gaze fixed on him. ¡°So, what do you want to do about it?¡± ¡°Either you pay up for ruining my reputation in this village, or I divorce her!¡± Fu Zhonghua exclaimed. ¡°I see!¡± Yang Guang retorted with a sneer. ¡°It¡¯s crystal clear now that you are with someone else, and you are just looking for an excuse for your return, specifically to get rid of your wife!¡± It was impossible for Yang Guang to give him any money. If Yang Guang did, it would amount to acknowledging that there was something unseemly between him and He Hua, and that they admitted to the false accusation. Fu Zhonghua also understood this, so what he really wanted, was his second option: a divorce! Now that he had been exposed, he no longer bothered to keep up with the pretense. He said stubbornly, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with that? I can¡¯t be with a woman who has such a nasty reputation!¡± ¡°You are asking for it!¡± Yang Guang was so enraged by what he said that he felt the impulse to act violently again. But Xu Ling stopped him. Then, she directed her attention to Fu Zhonghua. ¡°Divorce is not something that can be decided by you alone. As to whether He Hua has done anything wrong, if there is no evidence backing your accusation, whatever you said cannot be considered credible!¡± ¡°and who the h*ll are you?¡± Fu Zhonghua assessed her as he looked her up and down and asked with a sideway glance. ¡°I¡¯m Xu Ling, the secretary of Qingshan Village.¡± After identifying herself, Xu Ling looked at Fu Zhonghua sternly. ¡°You were beating your wife up in front of everyone, so now you are a suspect of domestic violence. After I give a call to Mr. Hu, we will have to deal with this matter first!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Fu Zhonghua was taken by surprise. He knew that he was in the wrong, and if the police came, he had to face the consequences. After a few moments, he quickly released the hand that was holding He Hua hostage. He said, ¡°I didn¡¯t hit her. We were fighting, and she hurt herself!¡± Yang Guang snickered. ¡°Do you think that He Hua can¡¯t speak for herself?¡± He turned his head to looked at her. ¡°He Hua, when the police get here, tell them the truth!¡± Unexpectedly, He Hua did not make a sound, and there was no expression on her face. Her eyes were blank, as if she had lost her consciousness. This surprised Yang Guang, but he reasoned that it might have been caused by stress. He quickly grabbed her wrist and checked her pulse. Her blood circulation and heartbeat were shockingly weak! Upon understanding her condition, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t care much about anything else, and used the energy in his body to help her blood flow. After a while, He Hua finally came to, and began to cry out loud. If it weren¡¯t for Yang Guang¡¯s alertness, the prolonged stagnation of her blood circulation could have easily led to both physical and mental damage. It was possible that she would have suffered a mental condition. Now that she was able to cry out, it was an indication that she would be all right! Yang Guang handed He Hua to Xu Ling, then turned his attention to Fu Zhonghua. ¡°You! You know best if you have done anything wrong while you were away. Coming back to find faults with He Hua was nothing more than you trying to get rid of her. As long as I¡¯m around, you won¡¯t succeed!¡± ¡°I¡¯m not going to bother arguing with you!¡± Seeing how furious Yang Guang was, Fu Zhonghua instantly withdrew. He rolled his eyes and tried to get away. ¡°I have things to do in the city. I am not going to waste my time here with the likes of you!¡± With that, he got on the motorcycle and rode out of the village in a hurry. By now, many onlookers had gathered around them. Most of them had seen what had happened and realized what was going on. They talked amongst themselves, and their sympathies were with He Hua. Just then, Sun Guoying made his way through the crowd. As he came to the courtyard, he shouted, ¡°Who did this to my son?!¡± ¡°It was me!¡± Yang Guang replied readily, and made his way towards him. ¡°You piece of trash, you are so evil that you actually incited your fool of a son to slander me!¡± ¡°You¡­ what do you want?¡± Sun Guoying was frightened by his approach, and took a couple of steps back. ¡°I¡¯m going give you have a taste of my fist!¡± Yang Guang raised his head and gritted his teeth as he spat out his intentions. ¡°Stop!¡± Xu Ling called out to him and walked over with He Hua. She threw Yang Guang a harsh glance before turning to look at Sun Guoying. ¡°Mr. Sun, your son doesn¡¯t know any better, and you should have disciplined him better as his father. He shouldn¡¯t be allowed to around the village spouting nonsense; do you know that this is a criminal act?!¡± Against Xu Ling who was full of righteousness, Sun Guoying gave a dry laugh. ¡°I can¡¯t control what this kid says!¡± ¡°If you can¡¯t control him, he should be sent to a mental institution to be treated by professionals!¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°No way!¡± Sun Guoying immediately backed down when at her proposition. He said hurriedly, ¡°I have no money for that, I¡¯ll just have to keep a closer eye on him!¡± With that, he turned and yelled to Sun Dawei. ¡°Hurry and get down here! We¡¯re going home!¡± Sun Dawei was afraid of heights. In the end, everyone had to come forward to help him climb down the haystack. The father and son walked away with their tails between their legs, and the onlookers dispersed as well. Yang Guang felt sorry for He Hua when he noticed that her eyes were red and swollen from crying, but he didn¡¯t know how to comfort her. He presented a request to Xu Ling, ¡°Please help her?¡± Xu Ling nodded. ¡°I understand. You should head back first.¡± When he returned, Yang Guang recounted everything that happened, but the unpleasantness he felt could not be soothed. Xiaolian trembled with rage as well, and cursed Fu Zhonghua for being an ungrateful beast! Later in the day, she took Yaya to visit He Hua. It was dark by the time she came back with Xu Ling. Yang Guang was relieved to hear that He Hua was alright. ¡°Yang Guang, go to the clinic after you are done with dinner, and get some medicine for He Hua!¡± Xiaolian instructed. ¡°Yes, I will.¡± Yang Guang nodded in agreement. After dinner, everyone at the west end of the village were chatting under the shade of the tree as usual. Yang Guang left for the clinic. Just as he was looking for medicine for He Hua¡¯s injuries, the doorbell rang. As he turned around, he saw that it was He Hua, and Yang Guang was a little surprised. The red marks on her face were gone, her hair was tidied up, and she had changed into a new set of clean clothing. Seeing that she looked as if nothing had happened, Yang Guang smiled and asked, ¡°He Hua, why are you here? I was going to bring the medicine to you soon!¡± ¡°It¡¯s fine, I can get it myself.¡± With that said, He Hua turned around and closed the door. Yang Guang was a little surprised by her action, an his heart began to beat faster. As He Hua came toward him, he swallowed nervously. ¡°Um, He Hua, what are doing?¡± ¡°Yang Guang, do you think I¡¯m pretty?¡± He Hua looked into his eyes and asked softly. ¡°Pretty? Of course you¡¯re pretty!¡± Yang Guang nodded. He Hua¡¯s face was a little flushed as she lowered her head and stared at her shoes. She continued with her question, ¡°Then, would you dislike me and think that I am a bad woman?¡± ¡°Why would I?¡± Yang Guang quickly shook his head, ¡°I would never think of you that way!¡± ¡°Oh.¡± He Hua pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised her head and looked into his eyes. ¡°But you are wrong. I am a bad woman!¡± ¡°What?¡± Yang Guang was dumbfounded by her words and was at a loss as to what was going on. He Hua was now right in front of him, and there was no more than a few inches between them. He could even smell the faint fragrance that emitted from her body. He gulped. Yang Guang¡¯s mind was a total blank. They looked at each other for a moment longer, and as the corners of He Hua¡¯s mouth turned up slightly, she plunged into his arms. Yang Guang¡¯s body shuddered with electricity. The body in his arms was soft and alluring, and she, too, was trembling slightly, indicating that she was a little nervous. He held onto He Hua without thinking. Yang Guang swallowed hard and asked, ¡°He Hua, what¡¯s the meaning of this?¡± ¡°You have been so good to me, so I want to thank you!¡± Chapter 17 - Going to Town Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio He Hua spoke softly, then raised her head. She was bashful and nervous. ¡°You wouldn¡¯t think badly of me for this, would you?¡± ¡°What? Why would I?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s heart was pounding hard as he let out a dry laugh. But He Hua just kept looking into his eyes¡­ ¡­ ¡°If you don¡¯t, then why are you in a daze?¡± If Yang Guang didn¡¯t understand what she meant by this, he would be the biggest fool in the world! However, he hesitated a little as he looked at her and asked, ¡°He Hua, I think that this is not appropriate.¡± ¡°What?¡± He Hua was confused for a moment before she realized what he meant. ¡°Do you look down on me and think that I am a loose woman?¡± ¡°No, no, no. I don¡¯t think that!¡± Yang Guang clarified quickly. ¡°Alright then!¡± He Hua nodded. ¡°I thought it through. As long as I am happy, I don¡¯t care about what others have to say about it!¡± After a pause, she looked into Yang Guang¡¯s eyes. ¡°Don¡¯t you worry, I won¡¯t be a bother to you after this either!¡± Yang Guang gulped again. With such a delicious treat right in front of him, it would be a lie to say that he did not want to give in to the temptation. But he still had some concerns. He just didn¡¯t think it was the right thing to do. Just as he was dithering, He Hua put her lips on his. As their lips touched, Yang Guang¡¯s mind went blank. After that, he acted on pure instinct. Clumsily, he took hold of the person in his arms. After a long time, the room quieted down. He Hua quickly got up and got dressed. Watching her, Yang Guang laughed and asked, ¡°What¡¯s your hurry?¡± ¡°Yang Guang, that was a one-time thing. If you have time tomorrow afternoon, come by my place!¡± He Hua replied. Her behavior was rather strange to him. Yang Guang asked, ¡°Why?¡± ¡°You¡¯ll know tomorrow when you come. Now, go on home, or else your sister-in-law and Secretary Xu might get suspicious!¡± With that, He Hua fastened the last button, leaned over and kissed him on his forehead. There seemed to be a tinge of sadness in her eyes, but eventually, she turned around and quickly left. It was dark outside. Yang Guang looked at the pitch-black night sky. He felt a little lost, and went into a trance. Some time passed before he came back to his senses and quickly got up and got off the bed. When he got home, it was already very late. The lights in Xiaolian and Xu Ling¡¯s rooms were off, as they both had gone to bed a long time ago. Yang Guang didn¡¯t bother them, and quietly returned to his room. He then sat cross-legged, and began to cultivate his skills. The next morning, when Yang Guang came out from his room, he came across Xu Ling and Xiaolian washing up. He smiled and greeted them. The two of them looked as they always did, not seeming to have detected anything out of sorts. After washing up they sat down for breakfast. Yang Guang informed them, ¡°I am going into town today to try and sell the gold nugget. When I get the fifty thousand, the rest of the money can be used for planting crops.¡± ¡°About that piece of gold. I don¡¯t recommend you going to a gold store to sell it. There are people out there who collect this kind of natural ore, and it would be much more lucrative than selling it at the price of gold!¡± Xu Ling suggested. ¡°But, where would I find someone who collects such things?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°I know someone, and I can give you her number. When you get to town, you should go see her!¡± Xu Ling replied. Yang Guang was overjoyed. ¡°That sounds great!¡± He took out his flip phone and asked, ¡°What¡¯s the number?¡± Xu Ling gave it to him, then went into further detail. ¡°Her name is Qi Yingxue, she¡¯s a year older than me. Remember to be super nice when you meet her!¡± ¡°You don¡¯t have to remind him, he knows!¡± Xiaolian smiled. ¡°Well, don¡¯t you ladies make fun of me,¡± Yang Guang laughed shyly as he thanked Xu Ling. After breakfast, he went to his room to take the gold nugget. He wrapped it up carefully, and put it inside his backpack. He then left home. Eagerly, Yang Guang embarked on his journey to town. He walked to Lushui Village, which was slightly over a mile away from Qingshan Village, and got on the morning bus heading to town. He took out his phone and dialed Qi Yingxue¡¯s number. When the call went through, a woman¡¯s soft voice answered, ¡°Hello?¡± ¡°Hello, I¡¯m Yang Guang. I got your number from Xu Ling; Ms. Qi, are you in town?¡± ¡°Yes, I am. Is there something I can do for you?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. ¡°Yeah, I have something that I need to show you,¡± Yang Guang replied. ¡°Oh, then come look for me when you get here, at the ecological resort.¡± ¡°Alright!¡± Yang Guang wrote down the address and hung up. The bus started, and there was an hour to go, but his mind was already there. He was expecting to get a large sum of money, so it was only natural that he was excited! After finally arriving at his destination, Yang Guang got off the bus and asked around. He found the ecological resort that was not far from the bus station, so he didn¡¯t even bother looking for a ride, and started running towards it. When he got there, he realized that the so-called resort was a grand hotel, with a total of three floors that all looked rather luxurious. With his bag, he went in. A receptionist greeted him with a smile, ¡°Hello sir, do you want to make a reservation?¡± It was still early in the morning, and any visitors who showed up at this time was definitely not here to dine, hence the receptionist¡¯s query. Yang Guang smiled and thought to himself that he couldn¡¯t possibly afford such a luxurious place. This hotel was so grand, that a meal must at least cost at least a hundred dollars. ¡°I¡¯m here to see Qi Yingxue,¡± Yang Guang explained. ¡°Oh, you are looking for Ms. Qi; wait a moment, I¡¯ll make a call.¡± The receptionist hurried to the front desk. After she got the necessary approval, she returned to where he was. ¡°Ms. Qi¡¯s office is at the back, please come with me.¡± Yang Guang¡¯s said courteously, ¡°Thank you, Miss!¡± The receptionist covered her mouth as she laughed, then led him in. Yang Guang checked out the interior decor as he followed her. There various plants surrounding them, and it felt as if they had entered a forest or gone up a mountain. He thought that it was no wonder it was called an ecological resort; they indeed emphasized nature. Soon, they reached the office. The receptionist knocked on the door. From inside, Qi Yingxue said, ¡°Come in.¡± Yang Guang opened the door, and saw a woman with glasses sitting at the desk sorting out some documents. She had long hair, arched eyebrows, a straight nose, and a dainty red mouth. What a beautiful sight! Xu Ling was more beautiful than anyone he had ever met, while Qi Yingxue¡¯s beauty was in a league of her own! Yang Guang just stared at her, forgetting to speak. When Qi Yingxue didn¡¯t hear anyone speaking, she looked up at him, and was a little surprised. She smiled. ¡°Are you Yang Guang?¡± ¡°Yes, yes, I am. Nice to meet you, Ms. Qi.¡± Yang Guang came back to his senses, and scratched his head. ¡°I wasn¡¯t expecting someone so beautiful!¡± Chapter 18 - The Golden Price Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Qi Yingxue was accustomed to this kind of praise, so she just smiled casually. ¡°Thank you. Please, have a sit.¡± ¡°Oh, right.¡± Yang Guang nodded took a seat on the sofa. Qi Yingxue looked at him. ¡°You said you had something to show me; what is it?¡± ¡°This!¡± Yang Guang couldn¡¯t quite take his eyes off of her, but he still managed to take out the gold nugget swiftly. After Yang Guang tore off several layers of newspaper, Qi Yingxue was stunned by the glittering gold ore before her. Like Wu Xiaolian and everyone else, when she laid her eyes on such a large golden ore, even if there were some impurities, she still could not help but let out a small cry of astonishment. She got up from her chair and hurriedly walked over to Yang Guang. ¡°Is this gold?¡± Yang Guang saw that she was wearing a white pencil skirt, and the hem of the skirt only reached the knees, revealing two straight and slender calves. There was also a fragrant breeze that enveloped him. Yang Guang gulped hard as he said, ¡°Yes, this is the gold nugget that I found yesterday in the mountains!¡± ¡°It¡¯s gorgeous!¡± Qi Yingxue couldn¡¯t put it down, and continued playing with it in her hands. She then asked him, ¡°Are you planning on selling it?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right; that¡¯s why I came to you. Xu Ling told me that there are people who collect ores, and it wouldn¡¯t be as a good deal to sell it to the gold store!¡± Yang Guang said firmly. Qi Yingxue could see that he was very honest and without guile. ¡°Indeed, the value of this is in its natural formation. If you take it to a gold shop to melt it down, it would be a waste!¡± She looked at Yang Guang. ¡°What the selling price that you have in mind?¡± Yang Guang was a little embarrassed. ¡°I don¡¯t know anything about that, which is why I wanted to ask for your help!¡± ¡°Oh, is that so?¡± Qi Yingxue gave the matter some thought. ¡°Alright, I don¡¯t know much either, but we could pay a visit to a gold shop and make an inquiry. Based on the price that they quote, I will double that to buy it from you. Would that work?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t think that would be necessary. If Ms. Qi likes it so much, just a slightly higher price is fine!¡± Yang Guang replied. ¡°That won¡¯t do!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled. ¡°I like this piece very much, and I would like to place it in my office as an ornament!¡± ¡°I do have a price in my mind, but I won¡¯t want to shortchange you. Let¡¯s go to the shop and get a price!¡± Yang Guang nodded. ¡°Sure. You seem like an easy-going person, so I won¡¯t drag this on either!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled. ¡°I am easy-going and you are honest. We are sure to strike a deal!¡± They left the resort and headed directly for the parking lot. When he saw Qi Yingxue getting into a red sedan, Yang Guang¡¯s eyes were glued to it. He commented as he climbed into the car, ¡°Ms. Qi, you must be really rich!¡± Qi Yingxue was so amused by his comment that she chuckled, ¡°Not at all; this car isn¡¯t worth much!¡± ¡°At any rate, I couldn¡¯t afford it.¡± Yang Guang caressed the leather seat, almost drooling in envy. The town was not all that big, and they soon arrived at a gold store. Upon entering the shop, Qi Yingxue said to the clerk, ¡°I¡¯m looking for Mr. Mu.¡± ¡°Oh, it¡¯s Ms. Qi! What brings you here!¡± They heard a man¡¯s laughter as he greeted, and Yang Guang saw a tall man of about six feet who came out from back of the store. ¡°Mr. Mu, I am here on some business. My brother found this rock in the mountains. I would like you to give me an estimate!¡± Obviously, Qi Yingxue didn¡¯t intend to socialize with the man much, so she got straight to the point and took out the gold nugget. Upon seeing the rock, Mu Hao¡¯s eyes lit up. He picked up the rock and examined it closely. Next, he got someone to fetch a scale to determine its weight. He was a professional after all. After some time, he came to the conclusion that the weight of the gold in this piece was two pounds. However, as to how much gold could be produced with a purity of 99.99%, that could only be known after everything was melted down. ¡°Ms. Qi, your brother is real lucky guy. If it is smelted, I think there is at least 2 pounds of gold inside; that would be worth just under a hundred thousand!¡± Mu Hao smiled. ¡°Oh, but my brother is not short on money. he just wanted to know its value, that¡¯s all. Isn¡¯t it a pity to melt down such a rare, natural gold nugget!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and wrapped it back up again. Mu Hao reluctantly watched as she put the ore away. He hesitated for a moment before proposing, ¡°Ms. Qi, how is a hundred thousand for you to sell it to us?¡± ¡°It¡¯s alright, I think I¡¯ll keep this for my office!¡± Qi Yingxue replied and waved to him. ¡°Thank you, Mr. Mu, I¡¯ll see you around!¡± She turned to leave quickly, without giving Mu Hao a chance to speak any further. When the two of them got into the car, they spotted Mu Hao trailing behind them, as if he had something more to say. ¡°Did you notice? He wanted to keep this ore as well, which can be sold for a higher price on the market. He definitely does not intend to melt it down to get the gold inside!¡± Qi Yingxue explained as she drove away. Yang Guang didn¡¯t know what to say. In response to his silence, Qi Yingxue looked at him curiously. ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± ¡°No, it¡¯s nothing. I just didn¡¯t expect this thing to be worth that much!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°That¡¯s nothing. I originally planned to give you a hundred thousand anyway. But according to the agreement we made, I guess I¡¯ll have to give you two hundred instead!¡± Qi Yingxue said with a smile. ¡°What? Two hundred thousand!?¡± Yang Guang was shocked. ¡°That¡¯s a lot of money! That¡¯s probably enough to buy two houses in town, right?¡± ¡°Just about!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled. ¡°If you would like to buy one, I could put you in touch with a few agents. There are a few neighborhoods around here that are rather nice!¡± ¡°Oh, no, that¡¯s alright!¡± Yang Guang quickly waved his hand. ¡°I was just asking. I have no plan to buy a house here. After all, I am just a farmer!¡± After thinking through the deal again, he raised his head and suggested, ¡°Two hundred thousand is too much. How about you just give me one-fifty!¡± Qi Yingxue was stunned for a moment as she turned her to give him another look. A strange gaze flashed through her eyes, but then she smiled. ¡°You sure are an odd one; you think that one can have too much money?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s expression was unamused. ¡°Yes. So much money that I don¡¯t even know how to spend it!¡± Qi Yingxue was tickled by his reply. She couldn¡¯t stop herself from laughing. Yang Guang was turning out to be more than just a little amusing. But she insisted, ¡°An agreement cannot be reneged. You have put your trust in me, so how could I take advantage of you?¡± Yang Guang was about to speak up again, but she stopped him. ¡°If you continued to object, I won¡¯t help you!¡± ¡°Oh, alright then.¡± With nothing else he could say to dissuade her, Yang Guang had no choice but to agree. The two returned to the office, and Qi Yingxue turned on her computer. She logged into the banking system to check her account balance, then she raised her head. ¡°What is your bank account number?¡± Yang Guang was a little confused. ¡°My bank account? I don¡¯t have one!¡± ¡°Then, do you have a payment app on your phone?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. ¡°I don¡¯t think so.¡± Yang Guang took out his flip phone and looked for it in earnest. Qi Yingxue was astonished by the sight, and laughed out loud. ¡°Are you trying to amuse me? Well, mission accomplished!¡± Yang Guang didn¡¯t quite understand her reaction. ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± Chapter 19 - Massage Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After Qi Yingxue¡¯s explanation, Yang Guang understood that smartphones were now the trend. The flip phone that he was using was completely obsolete, except perhaps among some of the elderly. Fortunately, Qi Yingxue was not a mean-spirited person. She simply thought that the whole situation rather amusing. She also found Yang Guang to be rather likable, so she teased him, knowing he wouldn¡¯t take it too seriously. Seeing that he didn¡¯t have a way to receive the money, and that she didn¡¯t have that much cash on hand, Qi Yingxue had only one choice. ¡°Well, let¡¯s go to the bank to set up an account for you. That way, I¡¯ll be able to transfer the money to you!¡± ¡°That works, but I can get it done myself. You don¡¯t have to go through the trouble,¡± Yang Guang suggested. Qi Yingxue nodded. ¡°That¡¯s fine as well. I¡¯ll be waiting for you back in the office!¡± Yang Guang went on his way and walked over to a bank he spotted a distance away. Waiting in line and opening the account took close to an hour and he finally got a debit card. Yang Guang headed to the office, brimming with excitement. As he was about to open the door to Qi Yingxue¡¯s office, he heard a quarrel going on inside. ¡°Yingxue, why are you so stubborn? We are just concerned for your well-being!¡± a man¡¯s voice pleaded. ¡°Sorry, but I can¡¯t accept this kindness!¡± Qi Yingxue¡¯s voice was cold, completely different from before; she even sounded a little angry. Yang Guang stood by the door and pondered for a moment, feeling that it was not appropriate for him to go in at a time like this. After all, he had only met her today, and even overhearing the conversation that was going on inside felt a little intrusive. So, he took a couple of steps back to stand against the wall, and waited quietly. The argument continued, before the door finally swung open. A middle-aged man walked out looking rather irritable. Without even noticing Yang Guang, he strode away. As he watched him leave, Yang Guang contemplated for a moment before entering the office. When he walked through the door, he saw that she was leaning against the chair. Her face was a little pale, and there was cold sweat on her forehead. Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°Ms. Qi, are you alright?¡± ¡°I¡¯m fine, I just need some warm water.¡± Qi Yingxue gave a faint smile as she struggled to get up. However, her face contorted in pain. Yang Guang quickly stepped forward to steady her. ¡°Don¡¯t you move; I¡¯ll get it for you!¡± He went to find the kettle and poured a glass of warm water for her. He watched as she drank it down, but her face didn¡¯t change for the better. Yang Guang asked carefully, ¡°Ms. Qi, are you on your period?¡± ¡°What?¡± Qi Yingxue was startled and looked at him. ¡°How did you know?¡± ¡°Right, I haven¡¯t told you that I am the village doctor. Your symptoms are very consistent with those that women experience for a few days every month,¡± Yang Guang explained. ¡°You are a doctor?¡± Qi Yingxue was even more astonished as she scanned Yang Guang from head to toe, disbelief written on her face. ¡°If you don¡¯t believe me, I can prove it to you by treating you. Perhaps you will feel better soon?¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Really? But how?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. ¡°I haven¡¯t got any medicine on me, so I will have to give you a massage,¡± Yang Guang said. Qi Yingxue was stunned again. Doubt flashed across her eyes as she looked at him and asked, ¡°Are you serious?¡± ¡°Ms. Qi, I won¡¯t lie to you, I¡¯m serious!¡± After hesitating for a moment, Qi Yingxue felt yet another cramp in her lower abdomen. And because she had been in an argument earlier, the pain was even harder to endure. Therefore, she decided to give it a try. She nodded. ¡°Alright, come and give me a massage. If it works, I will reward you!¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need for that. It¡¯s my honor to attend to you, Ms. Qi!¡± Yang Guang smiled. Qi Yingxue looked at him, and felt that something was not quite right about what he just said, but she couldn¡¯t quite put her finger on it. So she asked, ¡°You don¡¯t mean to massage my stomach, do you?¡± Yang Guang looked very serious as he nodded, ¡°I do.¡± ¡°Fine.¡± Qi Yingxue had no choice but to get up slowly. ¡°I shall lie on the sofa.¡± ¡°Let me help you!¡± Yang Guang stepped forward and took hold of her arm. Qi Yingxue¡¯s skin was silky smooth, unlike ordinary skin. Her arms were incredibly soft, and it felt great to hold her like this. Yang Guang¡¯s heart strayed for a moment, but he quickly gathered himself, and cursed at himself silently. ¡°This is not the time to think about such things! She has been very nice to me. My mind should not be in the gutter!¡± Yingxue slowly lay down on the sofa, and pulled her skirt down a little. Seeing this action, Yang Guang quickly move to the other side, next to her head, to avoid looking under her skirt. He assured her, ¡°It won¡¯t take too long, please bear with me.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Crouching down, Yang Guang put his hand over her abdomen. However, he realized that his energy could not penetrate through the cloth. He commented, ¡°It doesn¡¯t seem to have any effect through the fabric¡­¡± Yingxue didn¡¯t quite know how to answer him. But when she turned to look at his face, he saw that he was embarrassed as well, and didn¡¯t appear to being lying. Without any other choice, she slowly lifted the hem of her blouse. The skin that was exposed was white as snow, firm, and without any excessive fat. Looking at her lower abdomen, Yang Guang took a deep breath, trying to restrain himself from making an obvious gulp. At this moment, Yingxue was also feeling rather awkward. She scrutinized Yang Guang with her large eyes, and found that he was just as nervous as she was. The corners of her mouth curved up slightly. With his palms over her skin, a soft and warm sensation came over him, stimulating Yang Guang¡¯s every cell. He willed himself to focus and calm down. He took another deep breath, and closed his eyes to start the massage. The so-called massage was actually just to send the healing energy from his body into Yingxue¡¯s in order to resolve the discomfort. But, something like this was beyond the physical, and too much of a hassle to explain well. Therefore, Yang Guang decided to simply refer to it as a massage instead. He concentrated on the treatment. From the heat of Yang Guang¡¯s palms, Yingxue felt as if a warm stream was slowly flowing around her center, and the pain in her body was greatly reduced in no time! Her eyes reflected nothing but amazement. Looking at Yang Guang, who had his eyes closed, she thought to herself that he hadn¡¯t lied to her after all; he really could treat her! The room remained quiet for a long time before Yang Guang opened his eyes. ¡°How are you feeling?¡± Yingxue blushed and nodded. ¡°I¡¯m feeling much better, it doesn¡¯t hurt anymore!¡± ¡°Oh, that¡¯s a relief!¡± Yang Guang pulled back his hands as he clenched them up slowly. That silky sensation still lingered on his palms, and he wanted to enjoy it for a little longer. He did not want to forget that feeling so soon. However, Qi Yingxue didn¡¯t notice this little movement. She turned over and sat up on the sofa, and looked at him with a smile. ¡°That was great! You have such great skills. I¡¯m afraid I would really like to adopt you as a brother!¡± ¡°You already declared that!¡± Yang Guang smiled. Qi Yingxue shook her head. ¡°That was just a meaningless claim, but I¡¯m serious about it now!¡± She smiled as she looked at Yang Guang.. ¡°Alright then, we can discuss the other matters another time. For now, I shall transfer the money to you!¡± Chapter 20 - A Seafood Feast Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Qi Yingxue keyed in Yang Guang¡¯s account number and carried out the transfer. Soon, the money was deposited into his account. After his banking SMS service was activated, Yang Guang received a message notifying him that the amount had been received. ¡°That was fast!¡± Yang Guang noted in amazement. ¡°Of course. In this digital age, everything is!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled. ¡°Ms. Qi, this gold nugget is now yours. Where do you want to put it?¡± Yang Guang asked with a smile as he took out the ore. ¡°I have another idea. Such an expensive item is not suitable for the office. I am in need of a gift for someone, so I think that¡¯s what I will do with it!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled. Yang Guang acknowledged her idea without further comment. After all, the ore was hers now, and she had the right to do whatever she wanted with it. Seeing that it was getting late, Yang Guang wanted to head to the bank to withdraw some money before returning home. But Qi Yingxue was reluctant to let him leave just like that. She called out to him cheerfully, ¡°What is this? You intend to just slip away after making a fortune? I¡¯m not having it!¡± ¡°Ms. Qi, I no longer have any business here, . Why would I stay?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°You treated my pain, and I haven¡¯t thanked you yet. Let me take you out for lunch!¡± Qi Yingxue suggested. Yang Guag didn¡¯t refuse her offer. ¡°Sure thing.¡± He then chirped, ¡°Ms. Qi, you work at a resort, so it must be convenient for you to take people out for a meal!¡± ¡°Not quite. We won¡¯t be dining here. We¡¯re going somewhere else!¡± Qi Yingxue grinned as she got up and grabbed her purse. ¡°Let¡¯s go, I¡¯ll take you somewhere really nice!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Yang Guang was looking forward to it. Although it was not as if he had never been to a restaurant in the city, he was sure that Qi Yingxue wouldn¡¯t take him to some hole-in-the-wall. After they got in the car, Qi Yingxue asked, ¡°By the way, do you like seafood?¡± ¡°I do, but we are nowhere near the ocean, so that stuff is too expensive for us to afford!¡± Yang Guang replied. ¡°Actually, it isn¡¯t cheap even near the ocean!¡± Qi Yingxue remarked and then proceeded to start the car. ¡°Then it¡¯s decided¡ªwe shall go for a seafood buffet!¡± Soon, they arrived at a three-story restaurant at the south side of town. When they entered, they found that business was bustling in the crowded space. Yang Guang was a little overwhelmed. ¡°This area is for general customers and it¡¯s too loud. Let¡¯s go up!¡± With that, Qi Yingxue went straight up the stairs. Yang Guang glanced at the prices displayed at the bottom of the staircase, and his jaw dropped. The price for the seafood buffet was 81 dollars on the first floor, 198 on the second floor, and 498 on the third floor! Doing a quick calculation in his head, Yang Guang found that if he were to have a meal with Qi Yingxue on the third floor, it would cost him nearly a month¡¯s income that he would get from working at the clinic! One meal that was worth an entire month¡¯s income¡ªYang Guang suddenly felt that was a little too exorbitant. As he went upstairs, he muttered to himself, ¡°Just what kind of seafood would be this expensive? Mermaid meat?¡± It was much quieter on the third floor, which consisted of small, private dining spaces to ensure diners¡¯ privacy. Furthermore, each room had its own dedicated wait staff. The diners didn¡¯t have to get up and take anything for themselves, as the staff would do everything for them. Yang Guang was new to all of this, so Qi Yingxue took care of the order. Soon, lobsters and king crabs made their way to the table. The food was delicious, of course. But as he was eating, he thought of his sister-in-law and Yaya, and his spirits fell. But when he remembered that he now was also in possession of a large sum of money and that he could bring them for have a feast here another time, he felt better again. Seeing him eat with great gusto, Qi Yingxue¡¯s eyes was filled with affectionate indulgence. Although she had only met this young man just this morning, she was impressed by his frankness and honesty, unlike many around her who were constantly scheming. Naturally, she was quite fond of this young man. She asked as they ate, ¡°How¡¯s the business at the clinic back home?¡± ¡°It¡¯s all right. I earn a few hundred a month, which is enough,¡± Yang Guang answered. ¡°That¡¯s it?¡± Qi Yingxue was shocked by his answer. ¡°You are so skilled, so how could be making so little money?¡± ¡°Well, you see¡­¡± Yang Guang briefly explained to her the situation at the village. Seeing that Qi Yingxue was deep in thought, he quickly added, ¡°We may be poor right now, but things will get better soon enough!¡± ¡°Really? Why is that?¡± Qi Yingxue asked out of curiosity. ¡°I will lead everyone to prosperity!¡± Yang Guang replied. ¡°By the way, Ms. Xu Ling is there as well. She is our new secretary. With her around, the villagers will definitely have a better life!¡± ¡°So this is how you got to know her. She¡¯s at your village?¡± Qi Yingxue finally put two and two together. ¡°How do you plan on ¡®leading everyone to prosperity¡¯?¡± When it came to this topic, Yang Guang was full of pride. ¡°I¡¯ve thought it through. First, we will plant some Tianma, and then we will plant fruits and vegetables. As long as the crops make money, we will use all the available land in the village!¡± ¡°So farming?¡± Qi Yingxue pondered this for a moment. ¡°Qingshan Village is so remote. What will you do about transportation?¡± ¡°Um¡­¡± Yang Guang had been pretty high spirited when he was talking about his plan, but this question stopped him in his track. He was stumped for a moment, but after giving the matter some thought, he gave an answer. ¡°It¡¯s fine. I have money now. I¡¯ll just get the roads fixed!¡± Once again, Qi Yingxue was amused by him. She glanced at Yang Guang. ¡°Silly boy, road construction is very expensive. Your few hundred thousand will not be enough!¡± ¡°Is that so?¡± When Yang Guang heard this, his eyes darted around as he tried to think of an alternative. Soon, he had an idea. ¡°That¡¯s okay. I will grow the Tianma first and wait until I get enough money. Then, I will fix the roads!¡± Observing his confident demeanor, Qi Yingxue thought that it sure was nice to be young! She was only four years older than him, but she had already seen too much of how this world worked, and she felt that mentally, she was already about sixty years old. She no longer had that youthful energy to take risks. When she noticed how passionate Yang Guang was about his big plans, he grew on her even more. ¡°Your idea is great, and I support you. But planting Tianma seems to involve some technical complexity. Do you know anything about that?¡± ¡°Nope, I don¡¯t!¡± Yang Guang didn¡¯t even think about it before he answered. ¡°But I can learn. I have a bet with someone, so I can¡¯t lose!¡± This piqued Qi Yingxue¡¯s curiosity. Just as she was about to ask what the bet was about, someone entered the room. A man with fair complexion walked in with a grin and looked at Qi Yingxue. ¡°I thought it might be you when I heard the voice through the door. To think that I was right!¡± ¡°Chu Xuan, what are you doing here?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. ¡°To dine, of course!¡± Chu Xuan smiled as his eyes turned to Yang Guang. ¡°Would you like to introduce us?¡± ¡°This is Yang Guang, a new friend!¡± Qi Yingxue introduced him. Then she said to Yang Guang, ¡°This is Chu Xuan, a classmate from college.¡± ¡°Ah, we¡¯re not just classmates, but also family friends. We¡¯ve known each other since we were kids!¡± Chu Xuan smiled and proceeded to sit next to Qi Yingxue without invitation. He looked at Yang Guang.. ¡°So, Mr. Yang? What do you do?¡± Chapter 21 - Ride Home Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Chu Xuan¡¯s behavior was a little rude, and Qi Yingxue was displeased. However, as someone who had had a lot of experience in restraining herself, she disguised her displeasure and didn¡¯t show it. But Yang Guang was different. Seeing that this other guy had come in uninvited and had actually made himself at home, he said, ¡°I¡¯m no one, just a country doctor from the village. What do you do?¡± ¡°A village doctor?¡± Chu Xuan was shocked for a moment when he heard that. Then he snickered. ¡°This is considered a real job? You¡¯ve gotta be kidding me.¡± Qi Yingxue couldn¡¯t help herself as soon as she heard that and quickly said, ¡°Chu Xuan, don¡¯t say that. Yang Guang¡¯s medical skills are actually very good.¡± ¡°Miss Qi, don¡¯t worry about it.¡± Yang Guang stopped her. As he looked at Chu Xuan¡¯s mocking face, he asked in all sincerity, ¡°Do we know each other well?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t even know you at all, so how can we know each other well?¡± Chu Xuan asked rhetorically. ¡°Exactly! We don¡¯t even know each other, so why are you being so rude to me?¡± He smiled and continued, ¡°It seems that you might have been an orphan, right? You were born, but not educated, because you don¡¯t seem to know the most basic social etiquette.¡± ¡°You¡­!¡± Chu Xuan was rendered speechless by this, and then he flew into a rage. He stood up and pointed at Yang Guang. ¡°Boy, you¡¯ve dared to berate me like this. Do you know who I am?¡± ¡°Who you are has nothing to do with me. You practically asked for it when you came in here uninvited, and now you¡¯re blaming me?¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and continued nonchalantly, ¡°If you don¡¯t want me to insult you anymore, it¡¯s best for you to get out of here quickly or it will only get worse.¡± ¡°You are dead!¡± Chu Xuan was not someone who would take such an insult sitting down. He raised his fist and aimed straight for Yang Guang¡¯s face. ¡°No, don¡¯t!¡± Qi Yingxue let out a cry, but it was too late to stop them. But after the muffled thud that followed, she was stunned. Because Chu Xuan¡¯s fist didn¡¯t hit Yang Guang at all. All Yang Guang did was take a step aside, and the punch struck the wall behind him instead. Right away, Chu Xuan let out the most miserable scream, and his face went pale instantly. Yang Guang sneered and looked at his hand. ¡°You hit it pretty hard, didn¡¯t you?¡± ¡°You, YOU!¡± Chu Xuan grasped his right wrist. He was in such pain that he was covered in a cold sweat. But Yang Guang just looked at him. ¡°What? You can¡¯t blame me for your hitting the wall yourself, right? I advise you to go to the hospital as soon as possible, without delay. If you take too long, I am afraid that you might lose the use of that hand.¡± ¡°You just wait!¡± Chu Xuan knew that he had been in the wrong. Even if he called the police he wouldn¡¯t be able to make anything stick. Therefore, he could only look at Yang Guang with a hateful look and turn to leave. There were only two people left in the room now, and Qi Yingxue looked at Yang Guang blankly. ¡°That was really good. I didn¡¯t even see you move, but you escaped his punch.¡± ¡°It¡¯s really nothing.¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°Don¡¯t let a rude jerk disturb our lunch. Let¡¯s eat!¡± MMMM. ¡°All right.¡± A strange brilliance flashed through Qi Yingxue¡¯s eyes, and she nodded emphatically. While they continued their lunch, she looked at Yang Guang and asked him, ¡°Are you going back this afternoon?¡± Yang Guang nodded. ¡°Yes, I¡¯ve been out the whole day.¡± ¡°Would you let me take you home?¡± Qi Yingxue blurted it out, and she regretted it after she had said it, but it was too late to take it back. Yang Guang hadn¡¯t expected it either, and he smiled. ¡°That¡¯s too much trouble, isn¡¯t it? The road going to the mountains is not so easy to travel. It is full of potholes and such.¡± ¡°That¡¯s all right. I can change to a four-wheel drive, and it will be the problem solved,¡± Qi Yingxue proposed. Then she continued, ¡°I can take this opportunity to visit Xu Ling as well. We haven¡¯t seen each other for a long time.¡± ¡°Then I guess it¡¯s settled.¡± Inwardly, Yang Guangxin thought that how great it would be for him to go back in a luxury vehicle accompanied by a beautiful lady. When he got back, he was sure that he would be the envy of everyone in the village. Qi Yingxue smiled. After making a phone call, someone would come over later to deliver the vehicle she¡¯d requested. After lunch, the two went downstairs, and a huge four-wheel drive vehicle had arrived. A pleasant-looking young man was the one who¡¯d delivered the vehicle and handed the keys respectfully to Qi Yingxue. From start to finish, he didn¡¯t take one look at Yang Guang. After getting into the car, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but asked curiously, ¡°Miss Qi, who was that man?¡± ¡°My chauffeur at home,¡± Qi Yingxue answered. Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°Umm; what exactly does your family do?¡± He exclaimed silently to himself as he thought with amazement that they even had a full-time chauffeur at home. What kind of family did she come from? ¡°Nothing really, just some businesses.¡± Qi Yingxue just smiled and turned to look at him. ¡°You won¡¯t dislike me because of that, will you?¡± ¡°Why would I?¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Are you kidding me? I¡¯m a poor farmer, and it¡¯s my honor to know someone like you.¡± ¡°You are certainly a sweet talker.¡± But Qi Yingxue was clearly pleased. Her face was as beautiful as a flower, lit up by her smile. When the car left town on the way to Qingshan Village, Qi Yingxue learned some more about Yang Guang¡¯s family situation, which deepened her understanding of him. Once they passed Hongqi Town, the roads became quite bumpy. Qi Yingxue said as she drove, ¡°The road conditions here are really not that great!¡± ¡°Ain¡¯t that the truth!¡± Yang Guang nodded. ¡°When I make a lot more money, I¡¯m going to fix this road.¡± ¡°And I believe you will succeed.¡± Qi Yingxue smiled, and there was sincerity in her eyes. When the car reached the entrance of the village, Yang Guang quickly pointed to the clinic. ¡°That¡¯s where I work every day!¡± ¡°Oh, it¡¯s not too big of a place,¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°It¡¯s okay. There aren¡¯t that many people in the village anyway. Sometimes we have no patients for a whole day,¡± Yang Guang answered and then smiled. ¡°But this is just fine by me. No one coming means no one is sick.¡± ¡°Oh?¡± Upon hearing this reply, Qi Yingxue gave him a surprised look. Nowadays, in the medical business, there were all kinds of promotional schemes like points or gifts. All they wanted to do was for the customers to buy as many drugs as possible. There were not many doctors who would think like him. But she knew very well that Yang Guang¡¯s way of thinking was that of a true healer. So even though she didn¡¯t say anything, in Qi Yingxue¡¯s mind, her opinion of Yang Guang had just elevated again. As the car entered the village, it attracted the attention of many people. When they saw the car stop in front of Yang Guang¡¯s house, people began to gossip immediately. Wu Xiaolian was holding Yaya in the yard. When she saw it was Yang Guang who was getting out of the car and there was a pretty girl with him, she hurried over to greet them. After Yang Guang introduced them, she immediately said to Qi Yingxue, ¡°Nice to meet you, Miss. Qi. Thank you for bringing Yang Guang back.¡± ¡°Since you are Yang Guang¡¯s sister-in-law, I hope you won¡¯t mind me calling you by name. Please, no formalities. Yang Guang is a good young man, and I am very impressed by him. I feel like he¡¯s almost a little brother to me.¡± Qi Yingxue smiled. ¡°What? Is that so?¡± Wu Xiaolian didn¡¯t expect this, and she was pretty stunned. ¡°Don¡¯t just stand there. I¡¯ll tell you some good news. We are rich!¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Really?¡± Wu Xiaolian came back from a daze and realized that it must be because he had sold the nugget. But in front of Qi Yingxue, she was unable to ask him just how much he had sold it for, so she merely nodded. ¡°That¡¯s good news indeed.. Now that we have the money, we should think about finding you a wife.¡± Chapter 22 - Gone Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang smiled helplessly and tried to change the subject. He said, ¡°Let¡¯s not talk about this right now. Where is Xu Ling?¡± ¡°She went to the village headquarters. If she saw you guys on the way in, she should be here pretty soon,¡± Wu Xiaolian said. Just as she finished speaking, Xu Ling entered the house. When she saw Qi Yingxue, she immediately smiled and said, ¡°Yingxue, it¡¯s really you!¡± ¡°Girl, you are stationed here, and you didn¡¯t come visit me before coming to the village?¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and took her hand. After all, they were at Yang Guang¡¯s house, so it wasn¡¯t really the time to catch up. She smiled and said, ¡°I wanted to settle down first, Yingxue. Let¡¯s go sit down and talk.¡± ¡°Sounds good.¡± Qi Yingxue nodded and went into living room with everyone. On the outside, the house appeared a little old and lacking in repairs. But inside the house was neatly arranged, clean and orderly. Still, she was a little surprised. It dawned on her that all this must be to Wu Xiaolian¡¯s credit. As long as there was a woman in the house, everything was different. Yang Guang looked at Wu Xiaolian at this time. ¡°You girls talk. I¡¯m going to go out for a moment.¡± ¡°Well, go, but remember to go to Old Sun¡¯s on the way back.¡± Wu Xiaolian reminded him. ¡°I got it!¡± Yang Guang then turned to go out. Both of them had thought of the same thing. Because there were guests visiting, they had to at least give them dinner. Old Sun was the butcher in the village. He must have some fresh pork ready to be purchased. Coming out of the yard, Yang Guang went straight to Old Sun¡¯s place, where he was waylaid by Mrs. Niu.¡±Yang Guang, who is that visiting your house?¡± ¡°A friend.¡± Yang Guang smiled, knowing that she was fond of gossip, so he added, ¡°A big boss who runs a hotel in the city.¡± ¡°Oh, is that so?¡± Mrs. Niu¡¯s eyes got really big, and then she commented with a surprised look, ¡°You know how to pick them.¡± ¡°I do all right!¡± Yang Guang smiled rather proudly before moving on. But Mrs. Niu hadn¡¯t finished. ¡°Where are you rushing off to? I have something to tell you.¡± ¡°What?¡± Yang Guang turned around and questioned her. ¡°He Hua left today, and she may not be back in the future,¡± Mrs. Niu lowered her voice and said. ¡°Huh?¡± Yang Guang was caught off guard and quickly asked, ¡°But why?¡± ¡°I heard that she¡¯s going to divorce Fu Zhonghua and won¡¯t be living with him anymore.¡± Mrs. Niu looked all proud of herself having the inside track of things. ¡°Since she¡¯s going to get divorced, naturally she can¡¯t live in our village anymore. He Hua is such a hardheaded woman. What happened last time, it was over already, and Fu Zhonghua hasn¡¯t made trouble for her again. But now she won¡¯t let it go.¡± By now, Yang Guang¡¯s mind was a blank, and he no longer had any more patience to listen to her. He remembered what He Hua had said to him last night. Suddenly, he thought of something. He ignored Mrs. Niu who was still talking and began running toward He Hua¡¯s house. ¡°Aiya! What¡¯s your hurry, boy? Why are you running?¡± Mrs. Niu hadn¡¯t finished all her gossip, but Yang Guang was already gone. All she could do was give an irritated glare at his departing figure. As he rushed over to He Hua¡¯s house, he saw that the yard was indeed empty and the doors were locked. There was no one at home. When he saw this, Yang Guang¡¯s heart seemed to suffer a violent impact of some sort, and suddenly he felt very lost. ¡°If you have time tomorrow afternoon, remember to come to my house.¡± He Hua¡¯s words last night replayed in his mind. Yang Guang was a little confused, as he turned his head and looked around. He saw a basket that he hadn¡¯t had time to take back home, so he quickly walked over to it. There was an envelope in the basket. Yang Guang took it out and opened it to find a letter inside. The content of the letter was not long. It had been left to him by He Hua. In addition to thanking him for standing up for her and speaking the truth, she also explained that she was leaving Qingshan Village. The memories that she had had there were not all that good, but because of what had happened last night, she had no more regrets. After reading the letter, Yang Guang¡¯s eyes became a little red. He didn¡¯t really want to let her go like this, but he also knew that if He Hua were to live a happy life, she must cut off all connections to Fu Zhonghua. And because of that, she must go back to her ancestral home and not stay here in Qingshan Village. Feeling as if his heart had been hollowed out, Yang Guang was dazed for quite a while before he stepped out of He Hua¡¯s house. After that, he went to Old Sun¡¯s house for a cut of meat, then to the convenience store to buy drinks. He was absent-minded on the entire trip. After returning home, as soon as he stepped through the door, everyone noticed Yang Guang¡¯s odd behavior. Xu Ling couldn¡¯t help but laugh and asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you? Why do you look like you are at a loss?¡± ¡°He Hua is gone. I mean, she¡¯s gone back to her family¡¯s home,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Oh, I know about that. She was right to go back. That guy Fu Zhonghua is a no good SOB.¡± Xu Ling gave her opinion freely, then added, ¡°Although we are in the habit of urging reconciliations rather than separations, in my opinion, she¡¯s right to divorce Fu Zhonghua. This kind of garbage is not worth her time.¡± ¡°Oh.¡± Yang Guang nodded but said nothing. Seeing that he was still at a loss, Xu Ling couldn¡¯t help but become a little curious. ¡°Why are you so disappointed, could it be¡­¡± ¡°No, nothing!¡± Yang Guang woke up and waved his hands quickly. Then he said, ¡°Well, it¡¯s getting late. Let¡¯s get dinner ready.¡± Xu Ling and Qi Yingxue looked at each other and seemed to understand something unspoken, but they didn¡¯t ask any more questions. ¡°Actually, I wasn¡¯t planning on staying for dinner, but since they won¡¯t let me leave until I do, I have to oblige,¡± Qi Yingxue changed the subject and said with a smile. ¡°Nonsense! You said I was like your little brother, and of course you must have dinner at your little brother¡¯s house.¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°But I don¡¯t have anything delicious here, just some vegetables that we grow ourselves.¡± ¡°That¡¯s even better! Organic vegetables taste the best. I have always wanted to use food sources from local farmers, but unfortunately they don¡¯t have enough to sell,¡± Qi Yingxue said. It was just a passing comment, but it gave Yang Guang an idea. He immediately looked at Xu Ling and said, ¡°Then we should grow some vegetables and supply them to Miss Qi¡¯s restaurant.¡± ¡°It¡¯s a good idea, but there are two problems.¡± Xu Ling smiled and said, ¡°I have thought about that already. For one thing, we are located in the north. If we grow vegetables right now, the earliest we can pick them would be late autumn, and then we can¡¯t grow anything again because of the winter. ¡°Second, the road is too long and bumpy, and transportation will be an issue. If the volume is not large enough, just the freight alone would cost a lot.¡± Yang Guang was pretty quick on his feet. After thinking about it for a moment, he asked, ¡°What if we were to build a greenhouse for the vegetables?¡± ¡°That is doable, but there is still a problem and that is the cost.¡± Xu Ling counted on her fingers. ¡°I have made inquiries before. To build a fairly large greenhouse would cost almost Y100,000. No one In our village seems to be in a position to invest that kind of money.¡± When he heard this, Yang Guang was instantly overjoyed. He continued, ¡°Money is no longer an issue.¡± ¡°What?¡± Xu Ling was stunned for a moment, but then she remembered about the gold nugget. So she hurriedly asked him, ¡°By the way, how much did you sell that piece of gold for?¡± Chapter 23 - Visitors Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang didn¡¯t answer right away, deliberately prolonging the suspense. He looked at Qi Yingxue and said, ¡°Miss. Qi, why don¡¯t you tell them?¡± ¡°You?¡± Qi Yingxue gave him a sideways glance and realized that he was intentionally making them wait. So she quickly told Xu Ling and Wu Xiaolian whose curiosity was now piqued, ¡°I bought that gold nugget from him for $900,000.¡± ¡°What?¡± The two women were both completely shocked. ¡°So¡­so much money?¡± Wu Xiaolian said in a voice that didn¡¯t sound like her own. Xu Ling was a little dumbfounded as well. She looked at Qi Yingxue. ¡°Yingxue, is that piece of gold really worth that much? You didn¡¯t intentionally give Yang Guang that much money, did you?¡± ¡°Of course not.¡± Qi Yingxue was a little offended. After glaring at her, she went on, ¡°We went to the gold store to get a quote on the ore, and then I bought it from him at double the price. Such a large natural gold ore has a lot of value to collectors. I plan to use it as a gift.¡± ¡°You are going to give it to that¡­¡± Before she had a chance to finish her sentence, Qi Yingxue interrupted her. ¡°Don¡¯t ask so many questions. You just need to know that I am giving it to someone else.¡± ¡°Okay, fine.¡± Xu Ling knew that she didn¡¯t want to talk about it, so she changed the subject. ¡°No wonder Yang Guang said that he is rich. He got $900,000. at one time. That is indeed a lot.¡± Yang Guang laughed and didn¡¯t notice that anything was out of sorts. So he said, ¡°It will be no problem for us to build a greenhouse. Shall we start our get-rich plan of planting vegetables?¡± ¡°Yes we can.¡± Xu Ling nodded and then asked, ¡°What about your Tianma?¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°That¡¯s easy. There is a cave in the back of the mountain. I looked it up on the internet that this thing likes shade, so it¡¯s best to plant it in a cave.¡± To plant the Tianma in the cave was significant for two reasons. One was because of the plant¡¯s own natural preference, and the other was to keep it a secret. Because Yang Guang was in urgent need of money, he wanted to use his own special means to hasten the growth of the plant. Perhaps he could plant it successfully in a short period of time. This would not only make money, but also win him the bet. Essentially, he would have his cake and eat it too. After hearing what he had to say, Xu Ling nodded. ¡°If this is the case, then let¡¯s do it according to your ideas. I will take care of the matters regarding the greenhouse, and you can deal with the Tianma.¡± ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll transfer the money to you later. You don¡¯t need to scrimp on what you need to buy the greenhouse,¡± Yang Guang said. When she heard what he¡¯d said, Xu Ling looked at Wu Xiaolian, and the two of them smiled at the same time. Then Wu Xiaolian said, ¡°You have finally made some money. Maybe it¡¯s better to be a bit more conservative.¡± ¡°I know. I¡¯ll hand this money over to you later, and you can help me manage the account.¡± ¡°Huh? Me? Do you think I can?¡± When Wu Xiaolian heard that, she was a little amazed and asked in astonishment. ¡°If not you, then who? This household belongs to the three of us.¡± Yang Guang smiled. When he said that, Wu Xiaolian immediately felt a warmth in her heart. Everyone worked together to make dinner, and soon the food was ready. Qi Yingxue took a bite of the green vegetables and raised her head in surprise. ¡°This tastes so good, just as good as anything the chef makes in my restaurant.¡± ¡°Yingxue is a professional gourmet. Xiaolian, this is the highest compliment she¡¯s given you.¡± Xu Ling smiled. Wu Xiaolian blushed and answered with a smile, ¡°It¡¯s all home cooking, nothing that special.¡± ¡°Why are you so shy about it? It¡¯s true that your cooking is outstanding!¡± Yang Guang smiled. The four of them sat around the table. Yaya was tired from playing and had already fall asleep so they didn¡¯t need to mind her. Qi Yingxue was really in a good mood as well. She didn¡¯t care so much about being a lady and relaxed into eating happily. Everyone was eating and chatting. Just as they were enjoying themselves, a disagreeable voice came from the yard. ¡°Yang Guang, come out here.¡± Hearing this voice, Yang Guang froze for a moment, before putting down his chopsticks and walking outside to see what was going on. He saw four or five people standing by the door, all of them young men. The man in the lead looked familiar, and Yang Guang thought for a while before remembering who he was. He asked with a smile, ¡°Aren¡¯t you Zhou Hao from Hongqi Town? Why have you come to my house?¡± ¡°Yang Guang, I heard that you have been doing pretty well recently?¡± Zhou Hao narrowed his eyes and asked menacingly. Seeing his confident attitude, Yang Guang¡¯s heart sank, but he replied with a grin. ¡°How is that? I heard that you are known as the number one man in Hongqi Town, and no one dares to mess with you. The one who is doing pretty well should be you.¡± ¡°You know my name, so that make things easier.¡± Zhou Hao sneered and pointed his finger at Yang Guang. ¡°Come here. Someone asked me to take off one of your legs to teach you a lesson.¡± Having said this, he changed the direction of the conversation. ¡°However, we are from the same town, and I don¡¯t want you to be handicapped. So let¡¯s make a deal. Give us some money to compensate us. I heard that you have made a lot of money recently.¡± Yang Guang was taken aback when he heard that and asked hesitantly, ¡°To compensate you with money¡­? Compensation for what?¡± ¡°Our hard work, and your leg that doesn¡¯t need to be broken. Don¡¯t you think you should give us some money for that?¡± Zhou Hao smiled. The few minions behind him also laughed, slapping the sticks and pipes in their hands, looking completely unconcerned. ¡°You guys, don¡¯t mess around.¡± With a girly yell, Xu Ling strode out of the house and glared at Zhou Hao and his cohort. ¡°Are you crazy? This is a society governed by laws. Who gives you the audacity to act like this?¡± ¡°Ouch! This girl is really pretty!¡± Zhou Hao almost couldn¡¯t move his eyes when he saw Xu Ling. He turned to look at Yang Guang. ¡°Kid, this isn¡¯t your wife, is it?¡± ¡°What nonsense! Get the h*ll out now or I will call the police.¡± Xu Ling¡¯s face had turned red from anger, and she shouted loudly. At this time, Qi Yingxue and Wu Xiaolian both walked out of the house and regarded the scene in front of them with surprise. However, Zhou Hao and the others did not expect that there were two more beauties inside the house. When he saw these two, Zhou Hao¡¯s eyes almost came out of his sockets. Then he looked at Yang Guang, seriously assessing him. ¡°What¡¯s your situation, kid? Why do you have so many beautiful women in your house?¡± ¡°None of your d*mn business.¡± The way that he looked at the girls just now made Yang Guang feel violated, so he¡¯d replied impatiently. Then he said, ¡°I¡¯m treating you with respect. If you can¡¯t handle it, I will treat you like a ball.¡± ¡°Hey, kid, you don¡¯t care about your legs anymore, right?¡± Zhou Hao didn¡¯t expect hat Yang Guang would be so uncooperative, and he became enraged. He also wanted to show off his strength in front of these three beauties, so he raised his fist and went straight for Yang Guang. When they saw this, Xu Ling and the other two women let out a cry. Yang Guang was just one man, while his opponents were four or five men. If they were to start a fight, he would no doubt be at a disadvantage. But after their surprised cries, the three of them saw that Yang Guang¡¯s figure was gone in a flash and outright avoided the fist that came at him. He dashed behind Zhou Hao and gave a good kick to his *ss. Zhou Hao stumbled as a result of the kick. He couldn¡¯t find his balance and plunged into the west side of the yard, into the abandoned pigpen. ¡°Zhou Hao!¡± Several of his minions rushed over. Yang Guang laughed heartily. ¡°It¡¯s a pity that the inside is so clean.. It would have been perfect if there was some pig sh*t left for you.¡± Chapter 24 - A Ruined Dinner Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Zhou Hao, who had faceplanted in the pigpen, was helped up by his minions and dragged outside. At this moment, his face was as red as a monkey¡¯s *ss. In front of these pretty ladies, he had been greatly humiliated. Now incensed by his humiliation, he didn¡¯t care so much about the pain in his butt, but shouted to his cohort, ¡°All of you, kill this kid.¡± CLUNK! All four of the minions, who were holding sticks, now swooped down on Yang Guang. ¡°Watch out!¡± Xu Ling called out. And like Wu Xiaolian and Qi Yingxue, there was an anxious expression on her face. One against four, Yang Guang was bound to be at a disadvantage. The end result, however, was that the four guys rushed Yang Guang, but he was moving with great agility. In a move or two, he managed to avoid the clubs that were swung at him, and then dealt a couple of blows with his own fists. In only a few moments, he was able to beat the four guys into submission. The yard was so quiet, and all three women were stupefied by what they had seen. Facing the astonished looks from the women, Yang Guang was feeling pretty proud of himself. He dusted off his hands and said, ¡°These guys are nothing but rice buckets. I could beat another seven or eight of them.¡± ¡°Uh, Yang Guang, are you okay?¡± Xu Ling stepped forward and asked him. ¡°I can¡¯t say that I¡¯m okay. Beating them hurt my fists.¡± Yang Guang smiled gleefully as he turned to look at the guys groaning on the ground. Xu Ling was speechless and rolled her eyes at him. ¡°Stop that. What do they want?¡± ¡°I¡¯ll ask them and find out.¡± Yang Guang walked over in front of Zhou Hao. He saw that he was looking at him in shock, in a bit of a daze. So he asked him with a smile, ¡°Do you still want to fight?¡± ¡°No, I¡¯m not fighting anymore. I didn¡¯t think you would be so young and so strong.¡± Zhou Hao had hurriedly changed his tone, as he dared not provoke Yang Guang anymore. ¡°I AM pretty handy, aren¡¯t I? It¡¯s just that I am usually humble about my skills.¡± After Yang Guang patted himself on the back, he then asked, ¡°Since we are not fighting anymore, then let us speak sensibly together, what do you say?¡± After that, he looked back at the guys lying on the ground and smiled at Zhou Hao. ¡°You have five people and five legs that didn¡¯t need to be broken now. Don¡¯t you think you should give me some kind of compensation for that as well?¡± ¡°This¡­¡± Zhou Hao swallowed with some difficulty. He didn¡¯t expect that whatever he¡¯d said before would be used on him so quickly. Seeing that he remained silent, Yang Guang frowned. ¡°You don¡¯t want to pay? You are in my house, and you trespassed without permission. I have the right to break your legs, do you understand?¡± ¡°I..I understand, but I don¡¯t have any money,¡± Zhou Hao replied. ¡°That can¡¯t be! The all-powerful Zhou Hao, the number one man in Hongqi Town, has no money?¡± Yang Guang was immediately displeased when he heard that. He proceeded to reach into Zhou Hao¡¯s trouser pockets. But Xu Ling, who was following behind him, would have none of it. She said impatiently, ¡°Hey, what do you think you are doing? Aren¡¯t you going to ask him who was the one behind this preposterous attack?¡± ¡°Hee, hee, hee, I¡¯m just getting some added benefits.¡± Yang Guang laughed and took out a few scattered banknotes from Zhou Hao¡¯s pockets. Altogether, the amount was less than $100. But it was still money, and it all adds up in the end. So he pocketed the sum. Xu Ling was completely speechless. She couldn¡¯t help but shake her head at Yang Guang. She looked at Zhou Hao. ¡°Since you are from Hongqi Town, why are you here at Yang Guang¡¯s house making trouble? Who was behind this?¡± ¡°Tell us quickly or else you will suffer another beating,¡± Yang Guang added. ¡°It¡¯s,,,it¡¯s Mr. Yang.¡± Zhou Hao was afraid of not complying. His four minions had been beaten up in the blink of an eye. He now knew how capable Yang Guang was. When Yang Guang heard the name Mr. Yang, he asked blankly, ¡°Who is that? I don¡¯t know anyone called Mr. Yang.¡± Zhou Hao was a little surprised. ¡°He¡¯s from the town. His name is Yang Ziming. Have you never heard of him?¡± ¡°I never heard of him. What does he do?¡± Yang Guang asked. Zhou Hao didn¡¯t know how to answer him. ¡°I¡¯ve heard of Yang Ziming. He runs a nightclub in town and seems to have some connections,¡± Qi Yingxue walked over and said. Yang Guang acknowledged her comment, but still scratched his head. ¡°I don¡¯t know this person. Why would he find someone to beat me up?¡± ¡°Does this have anything to do with Meng Li?¡± Xu Ling thought for a moment, then turned to Qi Yingxue. ¡°Yingxue, is there any connection between Yang Ziming and the Meng family in the county?¡± ¡°I¡¯m not so sure. But I¡¯ve heard that he gets around in the county. He should know a lot of people with means,¡± Qi Yingxue replied, and then asked curiously, ¡°Who is Meng Li? Someone from the Meng family in the county?¡± ¡°Mmm, he was my college classmate, who was beaten up by Yang Guang the other day,¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Oh, so that¡¯s what happened?¡± Suddenly, Qi Yingxue turned to give Yang Guang another look. She wondered if this kid get into fights often? If so, this was not a good habit to have. But Yang Guang didn¡¯t notice anything. He was busy slapping Zhou Hao¡¯s face. At the same time he was saying, ¡°Zhou Hao, you are a character yourself. So how come you became someone else¡¯s errand boy? Do you even care about your reputation?¡± These little slaps were not hard enough to hurt Zhou Hao, but what Yang Guang said was very insulting. The color of Zhou Hao¡¯s face vacillated from red to white, and then white to red again. Finally he was provoked into a blind rage. He struggled for a bit before he said, ¡°Don¡¯t get mad at me. If you are so great, go find Mr. Yang yourself. Anyway, he was the one asking me to take care of you.¡± Yang Guang laughed heartily. ¡°But you weren¡¯t able to teach me a lesson, were you? And you got all beat up instead.¡± ¡°YOU!¡± Zhou Hao was so mad that he was simply speechless. So he stopped talking. ¡°Fine, I don¡¯t want to bother with you little minions anyway. Get up now and get out of my house.¡± Yang Guang stood up and said to them. Zhou Hao took a deep breath, stood up, and patted his butt. While he was walking, he said, ¡°Kid, this is not over yet. Mr. Yang will continue to look for you.¡± ¡°Okay! If he has the balls to come, I will break his legs,¡± Yang Guang said with a smile while folding his arms in front of him. Zhou Hao was startled by his words. Then he pointed at him. ¡°Fine, you are tough. Just wait and see!¡± Yang Guang gave him a glare. ¡°If you want to get out, then get out quickly! Not so much talking!¡± Watching these guys leave with their tails between their legs, he turned around and laughed. ¡°Well, just a few lazy punks, let¡¯s continue eating.¡± ¡°Yang Guang, the one that¡¯s called Yang Ziming is not some ordinary character. Don¡¯t be too careless. Later, I will ask around to find out what¡¯s going on,¡± Qi Yingxue said. Xu Ling took out her phone at this time. ¡°Let me called Meng Li and ask him if he was the one behind this farce.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t bother. He won¡¯t admit to it even if you call him.¡± Yang Guang smiled and said to Qi Yingxue, ¡°Thank you for your offer, Miss Qi. But don¡¯t get involved with this mess. Yang Ziming is obviously not a nice person. I¡¯m afraid it will not be good for you.¡± ¡°No worries. With my family¡¯s background, he won¡¯t dare to mess with me.¡± Qi Yingxue smiled. ¡°But still¡­ I will figure this out myself.¡± Yang Guang smiled and said again, ¡°Let¡¯s get back to the house and finish our dinner. Otherwise the food will be cold.¡± Everyone went inside, but their previous joyful mood was completely gone. Even though Yang Guang tried to cajole and joke, the three women still looked worried. In the end, Yang Guang had no choice but to give a sigh. ¡°All right, those guys destroyed a perfectly nice evening. I will have to catch up to them and beat them up again.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t!¡± When they heard this, Qi Yingxue and all the others stood up. Chapter 25 - Angry? Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Seeing the worried expressions on their three faces, Yang Guang was pretty pleased, knowing that they were concerned about him. So he laughed and quickly added, ¡°I¡¯m just teasing you. I can¡¯t catch up with them now even if I wanted to.¡± ¡°You jokester!¡± Wu Xiaolian breathed a sigh of relief and glared at him. ¡°No more frightening people like this in the future.¡± ¡°I know, I know!¡± Yang Guang smiled. Then he said, ¡°Everyone hurry up and eat. It¡¯s not me who got beat up, so why the long faces?¡± What he said made Xu Ling and Qi Yingxue both laugh, and the two of them felt better all of a sudden. While they were eating, Xu Ling asked curiously, ¡°By the way, Yang Guang, how did you become so good at fighting that you managed to beat four guys at once?¡± ¡°Because I¡¯m pretty awesome.¡± Yang Guang began to strut around like a little peacock. He said with a grin, ¡°This is nothing. Even a dozen men are nothing to me.¡± ¡°Okay, okay, we know you are great already. But what I¡¯m asking is how. Focus!¡± Xu Ling reminded him. ¡°There is nothing to it, really. I had a dream once where I dreamed of an old wizard who taught me a set of magical skills.¡± Yang Guang smiled. Xu Ling knew that he was making it up, so she rolled her eyes at him. ¡°Stop teasing!¡± Watching her getting teased by him, Yang Guang felt a small pleasurable shudder inside. He thought that she looked rather tempting this way. It was six o¡¯clock already after they¡¯d finished dinner. The sun set earlier in the mountains, so at this time, it was already dusk in Qingshan Village. Qi Yingxue got up to say good-bye. Yang Guang and Wu Xiaolian knew that she was busy with her business back at the resort, so they didn¡¯t insist on her staying. Everyone watched her drive away. But before leaving, everyone agreed that they would get together in a few days in town, for Qi Yingxue to take Yang Guang and the others out to a good meal. Back in the house, Xu Ling went to finish up her work log, while Yang Guang was about to go back to his room to continue cultivating. Today, having beaten five men at once, Yang Guang had experienced the advantage of cultivating the Method of Divine Farmer. Other than making money, this matter was the most important thing to him now. But as soon as he sat down, Wu Xiaolian came into his room. When he saw that it was her, Yang Guang got up and asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°I want to ask you something.¡± Wu Xiaolian was full of smiles as she down at the head of the bed. She said in a low voice, ¡°You met another beautiful girl today. You are amazing.¡± Yang Guang smiled a silly smile and scratched his head. ¡°It¡¯s not amazing. I¡¯m just lucky, right place at the right time.¡± ¡°That¡¯s not true. How many people does someone like Miss Qi meet every day? Why would she take the time and the trouble to bring you home? Something you did must have touched her, ¡°Wu Xiaolian said, and then sighed. ¡°Unfortunately, we are just not at her level. To marry someone like that is nothing more than a pipe dream.¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Yang Guang was stunned and he looked at her in amazement. ¡°What are you talking about? Who are we marrying?¡± ¡°Oh, you idiot!¡± Wu Xiaolian gave him an exasperated look. ¡°¡±She is so beautiful, smart, and capable. Wouldn¡¯t it be great to have a wife like that?¡± ¡°Xiaolian, you worry too much, don¡¯t you think?¡± Yang Guang couldn¡¯t say anything except look at Wu Xiaolian¡¯s grinning face. ¡°I just met her today, and you are already thinking about marriage?¡± ¡°I am your sister-in-law. If I don¡¯t care about this, what should I care about? You are of age already. Other boys from other villages have been engaged at 18.¡± Wu Xiaolian looked serious as she continued, ¡°Miss Qi is a little out of your league, but what do you think of Secretary Xu?¡± ¡°¡­¡± He knew his sister-in-law meant well, but Yang Guang still wanted to laugh. So, he rolled his eyes and smiled. ¡°She is very good as well. How about I marry both of them. What do you think about that?¡± Wu Xiaolian was astounded for a moment before she scowled at him. ¡°Shut up and be serious. I¡¯m talking business with you.¡± ¡°Oh, you are worrying over nothing. I¡¯m only 19, so what¡¯s the big hurry? Not every pretty girl is a potential candidate to be my wife, right?Besides, although I don¡¯t have much money now, just wait until the greenhouse is built and the Tianma has been planted. Then, making money will be real easy. It won¡¯t be too late then to think about getting a wife.¡± ¡°I¡¯m just worried.¡± Wu Xiaolian sighed. ¡°You know I¡¯m 100 percent supportive of you starting your own business, but what if you can¡¯t make any money once the $900,000. is spent?¡± ¡°How could that be possible?¡± Yang Guang suddenly stiffened. ¡°Don¡¯t you worry about that. Not only do I want to make money, but I will start by building a few greenhouses, until I become the richest man in the county, then the richest man in the province, and eventually the richest man in the country.¡± ¡°Foolish child, are you having a fever?¡± Wu Xiaolian wasn¡¯t sure if he was serious or not, so she reached out and touched Yang Guang¡¯s forehead. When he felt her soft little hands on him and her fragrant breath, Yang Guang¡¯s chest tightened and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated. But Wu Xiaolian didn¡¯t notice anything amiss. She felt that his temperature was within the normal range and muttered to herself, ¡°There is no fever¡­so why are you talking nonsense?¡± When she didn¡¯t get a response from Yang Guang, she turned to look at him. That was when she realized that Yang Guang was staring at her chest, and his eyes had become really big. Wu Xiaolian lowered her head to see what Yang Guang was staring at, and that was when she realized that the buttons on her shirt had popped open at some point, and a large area of her white skin had been left exposed. Panicked, she hurriedly covered her chest, then raised her head to scowl at Yang Guang. Their eyes met, and there was absolutely no sound in the room. The atmosphere turned a little bit awkward. When she saw the look in his eyes, Wu Xiaolian¡¯s face changed from white to pink and then quickly turned a deep red. ¡°Jerk!¡± With a huff, she quickly got up and dashed out. Finally, Yang Guang regained control of his senses. He wondered if he should go and apologize to Wu Xiaolian? But he really hadn¡¯t done it on purpose. His eyes had fallen on her chest accidentally, and then he wasn¡¯t able to take his eyes off it. After much consideration, he felt that he should apologize to her. After all, her status as his sister-in-law demanded that she ought to be respected by him like a mother. The reality was, although Wu Xiaolian was his sister-in-law, she was only a year older than Yang Guang. She was only 20 years old. When he got up to go out, Yang Guang thought that if his sister-in-law was really mad at him, he would be fine with her scolding him or even beating him a little, as long as she was no longer angry at him. But, when he arrived at Wu Xiaolian¡¯s room, he saw that the door was closed. Just as he was about to knock on the door, he heard sounds of singing coming from inside. It was not loud, but sounded very cheerful. It was Wu Xiaolian¡¯s favorite song. Usually, she would only sing this song when she was in an extremely good mood. So Yang Guang was stumped as he stood in front of the door, not knowing what to do next. He was full of doubts inside. It seemed that his sister-in-law was not angry at all. Was she not offended by being seen by her brother-in-law like that? Just as he was trying to make sense of things, Xu Ling walked out from the room next door. When she saw Yang Guang standing there, she was a little surprised. ¡°What are you¡­?¡± She had only managed to get a few words out before she saw some movement in front of her and Yang Guang had covered her mouth. ¡°Shhh, don¡¯t talk!¡± Chapter 26 - Bad Dream Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xu Ling was so startled that she could only stare at him with her eyes wide open. When they got back in the living room, Yang Guang was afraid of scaring her so he quickly let her go. ¡°Don¡¯t misunderstand, I was afraid Xiaolian would hear us.¡± ¡°Huh? Why?¡± Xu Ling¡¯s eyes looked puzzled as she asked curiously. ¡°I thought I had offended her just now, so I wanted to apologize to her. But before I could go in, you came out,¡± Yang Guang explained. ¡°Oh? Then just go apologize; why are you so nervous?¡± Xu Ling looked at him suspiciously. ¡°Uh, but then I found that she didn¡¯t seem to be angry, so I thought I would just leave it.¡± Yang Guang smiled sheepishly. ¡°What did you do?¡± Xu Ling was very curious, and she wouldn¡¯t drop the matter. ¡°Uh, nothing, nothing at all!¡± Yang Guang smiled nervously and waved his hand quickly. ¡°Why don¡¯t you go to bed now. I will go back to my room.¡± After that, he left in a hurry, leaving behind a confused Xu Ling. She looked at his departing figure and muttered, ¡°This dude¡­¡± When he returned to his room, Yang Guang had lost any desire to cultivate, so he plopped himself on the bed instead. Gradually, he drifted off to sleep without being aware of it, and thought he saw He Hua in his dream. When he saw her, Yang Guang got very emotional. After all, she was the first woman he had been intimate with. She was firmly chiseled in Yang Guang¡¯s heart, and there was no way to erase her from it. But He Hua, as in his dreams, was always smiling without saying a word. She just looked at him with such tenderness in her eyes. Yang Guang wanted to go to her and grab hold of her hands, but he couldn¡¯t get close to her no matter how hard he tried, and he didn¡¯t know why. After a very long time, he suddenly woke up and sat up in bed. The sky was starting to brighten. It was just past 4:00 o¡¯clock in the morning. When he looked at the time, Yang Guang muttered to himself, ¡°What¡¯s going on? Could it be that something has happened to He Hua?¡± When he thought of this possibility, he couldn¡¯t sit still anymore. But he had no number for He Hua, so he couldn¡¯t get in touch with her. And if he wanted to ask someone else for it, he had to wait until they woke up, at least. So Yang Guang could only sit on his bed in a daze and wait until the sun came up. When the smokes began to rise from the chimneys inside the village, Yang Guang went to Mrs. Niu¡¯s door. ¡°Oh, it¡¯s Yang Guang. What brings you here?¡± Mrs. Niu, who was cooking in the kitchen, smiled when she saw Yang Guang. ¡°Mrs. Niu, do you have He Hua¡¯s phone number?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Yes, I do. You want to call her? Why?¡± Mrs. Niu gave him a serious look and asked curiously. ¡°Uh, it¡¯s nothing major. I was just thinking about the last time she came to see me at the clinic and I don¡¯t know if she¡¯s feeling better now, so I thought I should follow up with her,¡± Yang Guang said. Looking into his eyes carefully, Mrs. Niu was a little incredulous, She asked suspiciously, ¡°She¡¯s not in the village anymore. Why do you still care so much? You are not seriously having something to do with her, are you?¡± Yang Guang smiled in resignation. ¡°Mrs. Niu, don¡¯t joke with me. Do you really think He Hua would fancy someone like me?¡± After he said that, Mrs. Niu said something that almost knocked Yang Guang flat on his back. ¡°That¡¯s true enough!¡± ¡°¡­..¡± Yang Guang was speechless, but Mrs. Niu chuckled. ¡°I¡¯m just teasing you! Wait here, I¡¯ll find her number for you.¡± ¡°Well, okay, thank you.¡± Yang Guang nodded and felt as if he could already hear the voice of He Hua in his ears. Suddenly, he was a little excited. But he didn¡¯t expect that when he dialed the number he¡¯d gotten from Mrs. Niu, he found out that the phone had been shut off. Now Yang Guang didn¡¯t know what to do. Standing where he was, he was unsure of what to do next. Just as he was standing there in a daze, Sun Guoying happened to pass by and snorted. ¡°What are you doing here?¡± ¡°Oh, it¡¯s you?¡± When he saw it was the village chief, Yang Guang wasn¡¯t in the best of moods and greeted him with an eye roll. ¡°What¡¯s it to you?¡± ¡°You!¡± Sun Guoying was now glaring angrily at him, but he didn¡¯t dare to do anything else. So he resorted to pointing at him. ¡°Yang Guang, no matter what, I am the village chief of Qingshan Village. Don¡¯t you know how to respect your elders?¡± ¡°Respect?¡± Yang Guang snickered. ¡°If it weren¡¯t for you, He Hua wouldn¡¯t have left the village, nor would she suddenly have lost contact. I¡¯m telling you, if something happens to her, you and your idiot son will be hearing from me.¡± These last few words were almost spat out through gritted teeth. When Sun Guoying saw the fierce expression in his eyes, he took a couple of steps back in fright. ¡°You, what are you saying? That you dare to kill me or something?¡± ¡°Do you want to find out?¡± Yang Guang narrowed his eyes and took a step forward. Sun Guoying was so startled, he took a sudden step backward. But then he tripped over a rock and sat down hard on the ground. Yang Guang didn¡¯t bother with him again and turned to go back home. And Sun Guoying, looking at him leaving, exhaled long and deeply and wondered to himself, Since when did this kid become so mean? Back home, Xu Ling was holding Yaya, who had just woken up, and Wu Xiaolian was already making breakfast. But neither of them asked Yang Guang where he had been. But Yang Guang stepped forward and said, ¡°Xiaolian, I¡¯m going to town today. I don¡¯t have time for breakfast.¡± ¡°Ah? What¡¯s the hurry? Surely, you can go after eating?¡± Wu Xiaolian asked. Xu Ling added, ¡°That is true. I have to go to town for a meeting today as well. Why don¡¯t we go together?¡± Upon hearing this, Yang Guang could only nod his head. ¡°I guess so.¡± No matter how anxious he was, he couldn¡¯t very well tell them that he was going into town to find He Hua, so he had to wait for the time being. After the breakfast was ready and after taking a few quick bites, he waited for Xu Ling to get ready before the two left the house. Because there was no public transportation, Yang Guang proposed while they were walking, ¡°Hey, when we get to town, let¡¯s get two electric bikes.¡± ¡°Two? Wouldn¡¯t one be enough?¡± Xu Ling asked. ¡°I will use one, and, since you are often going to town, you¡¯ll need one as well.¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Well, that is true.¡± Xu Ling thought about it for a while and agreed that it was indeed too far to Hongqi Town. It took too much time to walk there every time, and there was really a need for transportation. So she immediately said, ¡°You can buy them, but I can¡¯t take your money. Let¡¯s pay separately!¡± ¡°That¡¯s not necessary, do you think?¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°You know I won¡¯t miss it.¡± Xu Ling looked at him. ¡°I know you won¡¯t, but a few thousand is not a small sum either. And if I accepted it, it would be as if I accepted a bribe.¡± ¡°Are you serious?¡± Yang Guang was stunned for a moment, then added with a smile, ¡°Aren¡¯t we all one big happy family now?¡± Xu Ling¡¯s face was red-hot as she gave him a dirty look. ¡°I am the secretary, and you are a villager. Who¡¯s family with you?¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°As long as you live in my house, then I feel like we are one family.¡± ¡°That doesn¡¯t count. At most, it¡¯s just the relationship between landlord and tenant,¡± Xu Ling said. Seeing her face flushed a rosy pink, Yang Guang thought that she looked more and more beautiful! But just as he was about to continue teasing her, a loud rumbling noise came from the hillside. When the two looked up, they were shocked. ¡°Oh, no!¡± Seeing rocks continuing to fall from the hillside, Yang Guang picked up Xu Ling without saying another word. Chapter 27 - Street Encounter Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xu Ling had never seen anything like it. Falling rocks of various sizes tumbled down the mountainside, and she was completely frightened. Fortunately, Yang Guang reacted quickly and grabbed hold of her. Then, he leaped with all his might at least six feet in an instant, avoiding the falling rocks. There was, however, a lingering shock. When he looked back and saw the falling rocks rolling down the hillside, Yang Guang let out a sigh of relief. ¡°That was close!¡± Xu Ling also felt she had been very lucky. If she had not been able to avoid the rocks so quickly, she would have been hit. After a while, she realized that she was still being held in Yang Guang¡¯s arms, and he was hanging on tightly to her waist. She could just kick herself. She wondered what were the chances that he had gotten to hold her again. Xu Ling looked at Yang Guang. ¡°Well, can you let me go now, please?¡± Yang Guang was confused for a moment before he realized what she meant. ¡°Oh, sorry!¡± Actually, he had already realized that his arms were around her. He didn¡¯t let her go because he didn¡¯t want to let go. Now that Xu Ling was asking him, he couldn¡¯t very well continue what he had been doing. But he couldn¡¯t stop himself and smiled. ¡°You smell really good!¡± ¡°Ugh!¡± Although she wanted to get mad at him, she couldn¡¯t. She had no choice but to glower at Yang Guang. It didn¡¯t take her long to forget all about Yang Guang¡¯s flippant actions. She began to talk with him with great animation again. The world of young people was just so simple. Talking and laughing, the two soon arrived in Hongqi Town. Seeing that she didn¡¯t have much time left, Xu Ling parted ways with Yang Guang and hurried toward the town hall. Yang Guang also hurried to Chen Jianguo¡¯s medical supply store. Immediately after entering the store, Yang Guang asked, ¡°Mr. Chen, where is He Hua¡¯s family home located?¡± ¡°Huh? Why do you ask?¡± said Chen Jianguo. ¡°She left Qingshan Village already, and I want to find her,¡± Yang Guang answered. Chen Jianguo looked him up and down a few times. ¡°What business do you have with her?¡± ¡°Uh, just something I have talk to her about. Mr. Chen, just tell me,¡± Yang Guang pleaded. ¡°Fine!¡± Chen Jianguo smiled and said, ¡°But it¡¯s useless to tell you¡­ He Hua didn¡¯t go home.¡± ¡°What?¡± Yang Guang was stunned by this news. His eyes widened. ¡°Then where did she go?¡± ¡°She went to the provincial capital,¡± Chen Jianguo said and then added, ¡°The divorce can¡¯t be initiated yet, so He Hua left the kids at home and went to work in the provincial capital by herself.¡± ¡°She made a decision this quickly?¡± Yang Guangxin thought that it had only been a day, and she was now already in the provincial capital? ¡°Actually, she had made her plans a long time ago. Her husband is indeed a piece of cr*p, and it¡¯s not as if He Hua hadn¡¯t heard anything about how he was behaving on the outside. So, although it may have seemed that she acted suddenly this time, it was well within our expectations,¡± Chen Jianguo explained. After Yang Guang asked a few more questions, he realized that because He Hua was unable to get in touch with Fu Zhonghua, she couldn¡¯t get a divorce for the time being, so she¡¯d gone directly to the capital to stay with some relatives. Hearing this latest turn of events, Yang Guang looked disappointed. He murmured as if he had lost his mind. ¡°She didn¡¯t tell me, she didn¡¯t¡­¡± Seeing that Chen Jianguo was scrutinizing him with an amused smile, he quickly changed his tone. ¡°I still haven¡¯t given her the medication that she already paid for.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t fret! There are no medicines that can¡¯t be found in the capital.¡± Chen Jianguo smiled. ¡°Mr. Chen, do you have He Hua¡¯s phone number? The old one has been turned off. Did she change her number?¡± Yang Guang asked. Chen Jianguo shook his head. ¡°Probably. But she hasn¡¯t called home yet either, so we don¡¯t know for sure.¡± ¡°What about the relative that she¡¯s staying with? Can you get in touch with them?¡± Yang Guang asked. Chen Jianguo looked at him. ¡°Why are you so anxious to talk to my cousin?¡± ¡°Uh¡­no reason¡­¡± Seeing that the other man may have detected something, Yang Guangxin decided that he shouldn¡¯t cause any more trouble for He Hua, so he quickly changed the subject. ¡°All right, if we can¡¯t find her, we¡¯ll talk about it another time.¡± After looking at the various medicinal materials in the store, he asked, ¡°By the way, Mr. Chen, that Miss Mu from last time¡­her family is also involved in medical supplies, right?¡± ¡°Yes, didn¡¯t I tell you?¡± Chen Jianguo looked at him. ¡°Why are you asking about this now? Are you thinking about breaking the contract?¡± ¡°Breaking the contract?¡± Yang Guang chuckled and patted his chest. ¡°I made the bet, and I won¡¯t break the contract even if I lose.¡± ¡°And you will lose for sure.¡± Chen Jianguo laughed. ¡°At that time, I wanted to tell you that not only is Tianma difficult to grow, but three months is not enough time to grow a whole crop of it. How can you win?¡± ¡°Of course, I have my ways.¡± Yang Guang also smiled. ¡°Let¡¯s not talk about this. Since Mu Xiaowan is also involved in medicinal supplies, would you please give me her number. I will follow up with her and maybe we can have some collaboration at a later time.¡± ¡°You surprise me.¡± Chen Jianguo didn¡¯t know what to make of the whole thing. He felt that Yang Guang was boasting, but he didn¡¯t say anything. He quickly found Mu Xiaowan¡¯s phone number. After saving the number in his phone, Yang Guang left. Next, he headed to the place in town that sold electric bikes. There were two stores here, said to be run by two brothers, one for two-wheelers and the other for three-wheelers. Yang Guang made some inquiries about the vehicles. Although the store claimed that the electricity for the three-wheelers was sufficient enough to go to town in one charge, he still found it not so ideal and decided to go with the two-wheelers. As for transporting goods in the future, he thought it would be more prudent to purchase a regular car that uses gasolines rather than electricity. Xu Ling¡¯s meeting was not over yet, but Yang Guang had already decided on the bikes and the price. So he simply paid the money and bought both of them. Because he had to leave the bikes to get charged in the store, he decided to walk around town by himself. He thought that maybe he would go to the town hall and wait for Xu Ling to finish her meeting. However, he didn¡¯t get very far before he ran into Zhou Hao and the others from yesterday. The two sides were heading toward each other, and when Zhou Hao saw Yang Guang, there was no time to avoid him. Their eyes made contact, and Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Oh, isn¡¯t this Zhou Hao? You guys are together again. Who are you going to bully this time?¡± ¡°Yang Guang, I admit I can¡¯t beat you, but don¡¯t think you can walk all over me either. Don¡¯t push your luck!¡± Zhou Hao gritted his teeth and spat out those words. ¡°Did I force you?¡± Yang Guang snickered. ¡°If I really wanted to walk all over you, you would be crying when you saw me now.¡± ¡°You¡­!¡± Zhou Hao was so angry that his face had turned a bright red. But there was nothing he could do except admit his bad luck and leave like a loser. But at this moment, a car suddenly stopped, and the window lowered. ¡°Zhou Hao, what is going on?¡± ¡°Tiger!¡± Seeing the man in the car, Zhou Hao¡¯s eyes lit up as he hurried over. ¡°Tiger, you have come just in time. This is the guy who beat us up yesterday, Yang Guang!¡± Yang Guang was about to leave when he heard this, so he turned his head to give another look. As soon as he locked eyes with Tiger, he saw a touch of defiance in the other man¡¯s eyes and felt that there was something to this man, and that he was someone to pay attention to. At this time, the one who was called Tiger also got out of his car. This man was over six feet tall and wore a black tank top, which revealed the rippling muscles on his shoulders and arms. When he walked, he exuded a sense of great power. Zhou Hao followed behind the man and came toward Yang Guang with a satisfying grin.. At the same time, a smug expression flashed through his eyes, apparently in anticipation of seeing Yang Guang getting his share of a beating. Chapter 28 - Emergency Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Faced with the menacing Tiger, Yang Guang got prepared. This guy had a muscular physique and appeared to be a martial arts practitioner. He had never dealt with this type of person before, so Yang Guang had no idea whether his current strength was capable of beating someone like this. However, now he wasn¡¯t like he had been before. With the Method of Divine Farmer to improve his physique, he would not cower in the face of challenges. So, facing this Tiger, Yang Guang merely laughed and asked, ¡°What? You want to fight me to avenge these jerks?¡± ¡°Kid, yesterday you beat up Zhou Hao, and our boss was very upset. He was looking for you, but guess what? I found you today. I don¡¯t know if that means I¡¯m lucky or that you are unlucky.¡± Tiger smiled smugly. ¡°You are mistaken, it¡¯s me who is lucky, and you who are unlucky.¡± Yang Guang laughed and continued, ¡°It¡¯s unbelievable that there are so many who want to come to me for a beating. It¡¯s very funny.¡± Tiger was confused by this unexpected reply, and then he got furious. ¡°Kid, no more talk, watch this!¡± His fist, which was the size of a sandbag, was unleashed, aiming squarely at Yang Guang¡¯s face. Feeling the gust of wind from the fist, Yang Guang sobered up immediately and his eyes sparkled. However, he didn¡¯t shrink back, but greeted Tiger as he countered his fist strike with a punch fist. BOOM! The two fists collided, and both of them felt the shock at the same time. ¡°Kid, you are all right!¡± Tiger slowly pulled back his fist and let out a long breath. Yang Guang did the same. He felt some pain on the back of his hand, but he didn¡¯t let it show. He smiled and said, ¡°You are not so bad yourself.¡± ¡°Since we both practice martial arts, let¡¯s meet at another time so we can spar properly,¡± Tiger said with a phony smile. ¡°As you like!¡± Yang Guang did not show any weakness and proceeded to ask him, ¡°Your boss is Yang Ziming, right? I want to ask him who told him to send someone to my house last night.¡± ¡°That¡¯s fine. Three days from now, we will meet at the Moon Nightclub in the county.¡± Tiger smiled. ¡°Sorry, I am not available at that time.¡± Yang Guang shook his head. ¡°You have to know that I am extremely busy. How about I will find some time to meet with you guys? Anyway, Moon Nightclub can¡¯t run away.¡± ¡°No problem. I¡¯m sure Yang Guang from Qingshan Village can¡¯t run away either.¡± Tiger laughed menacingly and turned to look at Zhou Hao. ¡°Get in the car!¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Zhou Hao was so confused when he heard their exchanges, and he was frankly shocked. Watching Tiger turn around and about to leave, he had no choice but to catch up with him and ask, ¡°Tiger, was that it?¡± ¡°You know nothing!¡± Tiger¡¯s face was steely blue, and he gritted his teeth and said, ¡°This Yang Guang is very powerful. My hand is broken!¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Zhou Hao hadn¡¯t expected that, and he almost stumbled and fell on his *ss again. He¡¯d thought that Tiger was powerful enough to defeat Yang Guang without a doubt. But, in the end, he had also been defeated by Yang Guang. Who on earth was this kid? In a daze, Tiger had already gotten into the front passenger seat and shouted impatiently, ¡°What are you waiting for? Get your *ss in here and drive!¡± ¡°Oh.¡± Zhou Hao came to and ran over quickly. When the car left, his minions were dispersed as well, and Yang Guang was alone again. He touched the back of his hand and felt some bruise or contusion, but deemed that it was not a big deal. He figured he would put some medicine on it when he got back home. He smiled proudly to himself. He thought that Tiger must have sustained some damage during their exchange, which was why he left after saying something about meeting up later. Obviously, his strength was not as good as his own. As his thoughts turned to this, Yang Guang thought that if this was really the case, then he would really need to make a visit to that nightclub another time. He had no idea who was targeting him, and that was an uncomfortable feeling. While he was pondering the matter, his phone rang. Xu Ling¡¯s number had been saved to his contacts, and when he saw that it was her calling, Yang Guang picked up the phone. ¡°Hey, are you worried because you can¡¯t find me?¡± ¡°I haven¡¯t gone to find you yet. Didn¡¯t you say you are a doctor? Come to the town hall quickly, hurry up!¡± Xu Ling sounded urgent, as if something terrible had happened, and she seemed very anxious. Hearing the anxiety in her voice, Yang Guang didn¡¯t say much. ¡°I¡¯m close by, I will be there soon.¡± As soon as he hung up, he went straight to the town hall. When he arrived, he didn¡¯t need to ask for directions, as he heard a loud commotion coming from the first floor. Yang Guang dashed toward where the sound was coming from. When he got there, he spotted Xu Ling in the crowd. When he saw that she was all right, Yang Guang breathed a sigh of relief. He dashed forward and asked, ¡°What¡¯s the matter, Xu Ling?¡± ¡°All the cadres from every village were here today at the meeting, and the village chief of Shahe Village suddenly fainted. Hurry up and take a look at him,¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Oh, where is the patient?¡± Yang Guang didn¡¯t see any unconscious person. ¡°He¡¯s in the conference room. No one dared to move him, so he¡¯s still lying on the table,¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Very well.¡± Yang Guang nodded. Anyone who suddenly passed out like that was usually an issue in the heart or the brain. It was best not to move the patient or risk the possibility of secondary injury. Then the problem could become very serious. He moved quickly into the conference room and saw a few people in it. He saw they all looked a little familiar, but he couldn¡¯t exactly remember who they were. They were probably all leaders in town. Yang Guang didn¡¯t say anything, but went straight for the patient who was in a prone position on the table. He was a man in his early 50s, dressed in blue, whose hair was a little gray. Yang Guang came close to him and held his wrist. At this time, a middle-aged man with glasses looked at Xu Ling. ¡°Who is this?¡± ¡°The village doctor from our village. His name is Yang Guang,¡± Xu Ling replied. ¡°A village doctor?¡± The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, before a look of displeasure crept onto his face. ¡°This is not a joke. Mr. He¡¯s condition is serious. What can a village doctor do? The people from the hospital in town will be here soon, so tell him to go away.¡± ¡°Mr. Li, Yang Guang¡¯s medical skills are very good. I twisted my ankle earlier, and it was as good as new after he massaged it. Let him try,¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°A foot injury is not the same as someone in a coma, is it?¡± Mr. Li was clearly upset, as he retorted in a harsh voice, ¡°Don¡¯t make a scene, get out quickly.¡± Yang Guang was concentrating on checking the patient and didn¡¯t pay any attention to their conversation. When Mr. Li saw that he wasn¡¯t paying attention to him, he came over angrily to try to shoo him out, and that was when Yang Guang raised his head and said, ¡°This is a sudden cerebral hemorrhage. If you continue to interfere, are you going to be responsible if something happens to him?¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Mr. Li was stunned as he asked in amazement, ¡°How do you know?¡± ¡°Are you blind?¡± Yang Guang raised his hand to show him where he was holding the patient¡¯s wrist. ¡°Because I¡¯m taking his pulse.¡± ¡°You¡­!¡± After being rebuffed so unceremoniously, Mr. Li was even more furious. He turned his head to look at Xu Ling. ¡°So, this is what you called a village doctor, absolutely no courtesy whatsoever.¡± Xu Ling didn¡¯t know what to say either. She felt that Yang Guang had been a little too blunt. After all, Li Jianshe was the town¡¯s secretary. But she couldn¡¯t take back what Yang Guang had said, so she tried to soften things up. ¡°Secretary Li, don¡¯t be angry. It¡¯s only because Yang Guang is trying to save the patient.¡± Right after that, a few people in white coats came into the room. The head doctor looked around. ¡°Where is the patient?¡± ¡°Here, Dr. Hu, hurry up. He¡¯s been passed out for ten minutes already, and you just got here,¡± Li Jianshe said. ¡°We were in a meeting, so we were delayed.¡± Doctor Hu stepped forward and found that Yang Guang was taking the patient¡¯s pulse. He asked in confusion, ¡°Who is this?¡± Chapter 29 - Worried about Me? Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°I see. So you¡¯re the doctor in Qingshan Village,¡± Dr. Hu exclaimed after hearing Xu Ling¡¯s introduction. ¡°If you want to treat the villagers, then I have no trouble with that. But do you think you have the qualifications to treat people here? Do you have your license?¡± ¡°It¡¯s still in process. I¡¯ll be able to get it soon,¡± Yang Guang said as he looked at the doctor. ¡°If it¡¯s still in process, then it means you still don¡¯t have it, right?¡± Dr. Hu scoffed before changing his expression into an angry one. ¡°Move aside. You have no right to treat any patient here.¡± ¡°And you do? You literally decided to finish your meeting first even when you knew that there was someone dying here. And you call yourself a doctor?¡± ¡°What did you say?¡± Dr. Hu roared, not expecting that Yang Guang would argue back at him. ¡°Who the heck do you think you are? You don¡¯t give the orders around here. Get the h*ll out! If something happens to the patient, will you bear the responsibility?¡± ¡°Unfortunately for you, you are too late,¡± Yang Guang laughed and stood up. ¡°Drop your kind act and get back to where you came from.¡± ¡°What? Did the patient die?¡± Dr. Hu asked. ¡°Why are you cursing the patient? He¡¯s fine,¡± Yang Guang scolded him. ¡°Impossible!¡± Dr. Hu exclaimed. ¡°How did you even treat him without using any medication?¡± ¡°Just stay put and watch.¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and turned to Xu Ling. ¡°Mr. He should be able to wake up soon.¡± Just like when he¡¯d treated the village chief a while ago, he¡¯d sent his energy into the patient¡¯s head and removed a drop of blood that was stuck in it. With the blood pressuring the brain gone, it would make sense that Mr. He would wake up. Not even a few seconds had passed, and Mr. He suddenly opened his eyes. He raised his head and checked his surroundings before asking, ¡°Huh? What happened? Did I fall asleep?¡± ¡°He! You almost scared us to death! Thank God you are fine,¡± Mr. Li exclaimed. ¡°What? All I can remember is that I was fine one second, and then everything turned black the next¡­¡± Mr. He was still completely confused about the situation. ¡°I¡¯m guessing that you are low on blood sugar. That explains why you suddenly fainted,¡± Dr. Hu said and glanced at Yang Guang. ¡°It¡¯s a good thing you¡¯re fine now. There¡¯s some idiot pretending to be a talented doctor, saying he has treated you.¡± Yang Guang was completely speechless by this terrible accusation. Since he had treated Mr. He, even if he told everyone that the village chief had suffered from a similar cerebral hemorrhage, no one would¡¯ve believed him if he told them that he had removed the blood. Without the blood as proof, he would not be able to explain that he was the one who had treated Mr. He. ¡°Well¡­whatever,¡± Yang Guang sighed and approached Mr. He. ¡°Your condition was very dangerous just now. Even though I¡¯ve removed the blood that was in your brain, you will suffer from headaches and numbness in your limbs for a short time. It¡¯s not something a few medicinal herbs can¡¯t solve. I¡¯ll give you a prescription later.¡± ¡°Shut the h*ll up!¡± Dr. Hu scolded anxiously and pointed at Yang Guang. ¡°How dare you still talk this nonsense? Shut your trap, or else I¡¯ll make them revoke your license!¡± ¡°Dr. Hu, all of us saw Mr. He go into shock and pass out. I even noticed his pupils were contracted. Those are obvious signs of a brainstem hemorrhage. Yang Guang has cured him now, but there are still risks of it coming back. Are you going to take responsibility if it does?¡± Xu Ling scolded him as she couldn¡¯t sit still and let other people belittle Yang Guang. ¡°And who the heck are you?¡± Dr. Hu asked curiously. ¡°My name¡¯s Xu Ling! I¡¯m the secretary of Qingshan Village,¡± Xu Ling announced. ¡°I know it seems impossible, but I¡¯ve personally experienced how amazing Yang Guang¡¯s ability is. Now that he has saved Mr. He, who was on the brink of dying, how dare you question his credibility.¡± ¡°Like I care.¡± Dr. Hu scoffed as he rolled his eyes back and turned to Mr. He. ¡°Why don¡¯t you come with us to the hospital? We¡¯ll do a full body checkup on you.¡± Mr. He was still utterly confused by everything that was happening around him. However, judging from Xu Ling¡¯s attitude, he could tell that his condition had been extremely serious. ¡°Okay.¡± He nodded. ¡°Good. Follow me!¡± Dr. Hu turned to leave, but suddenly stopped at the door. He then turned back and pointed at Yang Guang. ¡°Young man, I¡¯m letting you slide today. If I catch you treating people here without a license again, I¡¯ll have you reported.¡± Yang Guang could only smile bitterly in response to that. Xu Ling noticed that and quickly comforted him, ¡°Guang, don¡¯t worry. There¡¯s nothing he can do to you. He¡¯s just trying to scare you.¡± ¡°I¡¯m not intimidated by him. I¡¯m just speechless. He¡¯s not even that good of a doctor. All he can do is cause more trouble,¡± Yang Guang sighed. Due to this unexpected situation, the meeting had to end early. After Mr. Li announced the end of the meeting, everyone started to return to their villages. Yang Guang and Xu Ling left together and headed to the electric bike shop. Seeing that Yang Guang had indeed bought two bikes, Xu Ling insisted on paying him back. After an intense argument, he had no choice but to accept the money. Since the sun was already high up in the sky, they decided to have lunch at a noodle shop before heading back. Yang Guang ordered two bowls of beef noodle soups. While they waited for the food to be served, Xu Ling asked, ¡°When can you get your license?¡± ¡°I¡¯m not sure.¡± Yang Guang scratched the back of his head. ¡°When I took the exam in the county, they told me it was going to take about one to two months.¡± ¡°Wait. So, you really are practicing medicine without a license? You shouldn¡¯t do that. They can send you to prison for that,¡± Xu Ling exclaimed. ¡°It¡¯s not that serious, actually.¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Most village doctors don¡¯t have a license. They have the skills but not the textbook knowledge to pass the exam.¡± ¡°I see¡­ Why don¡¯t you ask and see when you¡¯ll get yours? I¡¯m scared that Dr. Hu will try to make trouble for you again in the future. He¡¯s the kind of person who holds a grudge.¡± ¡°Ling, are you worried about me?¡± Yang Guang asked with a gentle smile. Xu Ling was shocked by the question. When she noticed that he was watching her intensely, her face reddened immediately and she rolled her eyes. ¡°What are you talking about? What¡¯s wrong with worrying about you? Isn¡¯t that normal?¡± ¡°It is.¡± Yang Guang shrugged. ¡°I do think it¡¯s normal, but why are you blushing?¡± ¡°Guang!¡± Xu Ling roared and almost stood up. ¡°Stop joking around or I¡¯m going to leave!¡± ¡°I¡¯m sorry!¡± Yang Guang laughed. ¡°I¡¯m just joking with you.¡± A few minutes later, two bowls of beef noodle soup were served. The soup was still so hot that steam was coming out of it. A few pieces of juicy beef floated on top of the soup and Yang Guang moved all of his to Xu Ling¡¯s bowl. ¡°What are you doing?¡± Xu Ling asked. ¡°Just a token of appreciation. I¡¯m touched that you were the only one who stood up for me back there.¡± ¡°What? So your token of appreciation is a few pieces of meat?¡± Yang Guang grinned, thinking that he would¡¯ve said that he could give all of himself to her if she allowed it. Before he could say anything, two people charged in and scanned the shop.. The moment they located Yang Guang, they immediately stormed toward him. Chapter 30 - Moans in the Cave Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The two women had caught Yang Guang¡¯s attention the moment they walked in. One was in her 40s, while the other was around 17 or 18. Judging from their appearances, he could tell they either lived in the town or one of the nearby villages. Seeing that they were walking toward him, Yang Guang put his chopsticks down. ¡°Excuse me, are you the one who treated Mr. He just now?¡± the middle-aged woman asked. ¡°Yes.¡± Yang Guang nodded. ¡°And you are?¡± ¡°I am Mrs. He. This young lady here is our daughter,¡± the woman introduced herself and her daughter. ¡°We rushed here from our village as soon as we heard about what happened to him.¡± ¡°I see. But Mr. He has already been taken to the hospital. Why aren¡¯t you guys visiting him there, but have come to me instead?¡± Yang Guang asked curiously. Mrs. He smiled and explained, ¡°I heard from someone who was at the scene that my husband would be in grave danger if not for you, Dr. Yang. I also learned that you were about to give him a prescription before Dr. Hu stopped you. I hope you can give us the prescription¡­¡± Yang Guang and Xu Ling finally understood the situation. Just as the young doctor was about to tell them what kind of medicinal herbs they should buy, he was stopped by Xu Ling¡¯s glare. The village secretary then turned to them and said, ¡°Mrs. He, you don¡¯t have to ask Yang Guang about this. You just have to ask for drugs that can treat brain hemorrhage from any pharmacy in the town. They¡¯ll be able to get you everything you need.¡± Knowing that Xu Ling was trying to protect him, Yang Guang nodded. ¡°She¡¯s right. I don¡¯t have any mysterious prescription that can cure him instantly. It¡¯s pretty much the same as what the pharmacy will give you.¡± ¡°I see¡­¡± Mrs. He showed obvious signs of disappointment, but didn¡¯t express it. ¡°Thank you, Dr. Yang. We¡¯ll come and pay our gratitude to you once my husband recovers.¡± ¡°You don¡¯t have to do that.¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°It¡¯s my job to save people.¡± Throughout the whole conversation, Mr. He¡¯s daughter did not say a word. She kept staring at Yang Guang with mixed expressions on her face. No one could tell what she was thinking. She just kept staring until she and her mother left together. After the mother and daughter were gone, Yang Guang turned to Xu Ling and grinned. ¡°Ling! You¡¯re the best to me.¡± ¡°Here you go again¡­¡± Xu Ling sighed. ¡°You sure know how to talk to a girl. Hurry up and finish your food. I still have work to do after lunch.¡± ¡°What kind of work?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°My higher-ups want us to count the number of low-income families in our village. Each village has an indicator for that, and I have to report it to the government,¡± Xu Ling explained. ¡°I see. Then, Ling, you have to make sure you find all of them. In the past, all the reported low-income families have been Sun Guoying¡¯s relatives. Some of them even have more than Y10,000 in savings. These people are literally taking the government¡¯s money when they aren¡¯t even poor,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°I heard about that too. However, now that we are counting again, I¡¯m not going to let anyone take advantage of me.¡± ¡°That¡¯s the spirit! If anyone tries to stop you, I¡¯ll beat them up.¡± ¡°Violence is not a solution.¡± Xu Ling scolded him and rolled her eyes as she had no idea how to control this naughty young man in front of her. After lunch, the sun was at its highest. Even though it was hot outside, the breeze from riding the bikes offset the heat. That was why both of them could ride out of Hongqi Town and back to Qingshan Village without having any worries of getting heatstroke. They soon reached their destination. When they parked the two new electric bikes outside Yang Guang¡¯s house, Wu Xiaolian came out with Yaya in her arms and smiled. ¡°Oh? You got two new ones?¡± ¡°One¡¯s for Ling and the other is for us. It was more convenient to get two,¡± Yang Guang said and took out two stacks of cash for Wu Xiaolian. ¡°Here, I¡¯m pretty sure that your mother and brother will be here to collect the money soon. Give them 50,000, and keep the rest as pocket money.¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t this a little too much?¡± Wu Xiaolian shook her head as the two stacks of cash totaled 20,000. ¡°We have more than enough to spare.¡± Yang Guang grinned. ¡°When you head to town tomorrow, buy yourself and Yaya some new clothes. And get my cute niece some new toys as well.¡± Wu Xiaolian wanted to say that they shouldn¡¯t waste money even if they had it, but she couldn¡¯t bring herself to say it. ¡°Guang¡¯s right,¡± Xu Ling agreed while nodding. ¡°Xiaolian, you should treat yourself sometimes. It¡¯s your money, and you have all the rights to spend it.¡± In the end, Wu Xiaoliian had no choice but to take the money. Her heart was warm to the point where tears were about to fill her eyes. However, she didn¡¯t want to let Yang Guang and Xu Ling see her crying, so she held them back. After that, Xu Ling headed to the village headquarters while Yang Guang went to check out the hill. He had been procrastinating and the due date of the bet was closing in, but he still had not started planting the Tianma. He arrived at the hill after traveling in the hot sun. After passing through some bushes, he finally spotted the entrance to the cave. The cave was huge, and it was a place where he would play with other kids his age when he was younger. Even if it was mid-summer, the cave was chilly as if there was an air-conditioner turned on in there. That was why they loved playing in there. However, after a few rockfall incidents, people stopped coming to the cave, and its entrance was soon covered with wild bushes. Seeing how dark the cave was, Yang Guang took out his flashlight and headed in. It would be easy for him to clean the entrance. All he needed was to hire someone with a mini excavator to clear the bushes and create a path. However, the situation was different inside the cave. Rocks would fall occasionally, and he would need a way to secure the ceiling. Since he could still see with the help of the sunlight, Yang Guang had not turned on his flashlight yet. Just when he was about to head even further in, he suddenly heard moans coming from the deeper part of the cave. HMMM? Yang Guang paused and his eyes widened. He could instantly tell what the moan was. His expression immediately turned into an excited one, and he slowly crept forward. It was clear to him that a man and woman were having sex inside the cave. And the only people who knew of the cave were those from Qingshan Village. It piqued Yang Guang¡¯s curiosity, and he wanted to know who they were. The path inside the cave was not a straight line but instead had a lot of turns. When Yang Guang approached one of the corners, he peeked his head out a little and saw two naked bodies. Since it was dark inside, he couldn¡¯t see who they were. But it was obvious that their bodies were closely touching one another. Yang Guang dropped his jaw when he learned that his guess was correct. However, he was still curious as to who they were. The only reason they would do it inside the cave was that they weren¡¯t a couple. Yang Guang thought of yelling to scare them, but he managed to hold himself back from doing so. Instead, he reached for the floor and picked up a rock that was the size of a goose egg. Chapter 31 - Is This the End Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Deep inside the cave, the man was rocking his waist back and forth while gasping for air. His body was also drenched in his and the woman¡¯s sweat. Suddenly, a heavy rock fell on him, causing him to scream in pain and jump up. Yang Guang tried his best to hold his laughter in as he finally realized who the man was. He was none other than Sun Guoying. This was no surprise to the young man as the village chief was one of the most lustful in their village. Ever since more than half the village men passed away, the chief had been using his position to harass the widows who had been left behind. Yang Guang had even heard stories of women being sexually harassed by Sun Guoying, but he never believed them. However, he was completely convinced now. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± the woman asked. Yang Guang was stunned. He dropped his jaw the moment he heard the woman¡¯s voice as he could recognize it. It belonged to Mrs. Niu. He couldn¡¯t help but picture the naked body of Mrs. Niu, who was just over five feet but had a heavy built of close to 200 pounds. It was something that he would never want to imagine ever again. It seemed like Sun Guoying didn¡¯t care about his partner¡¯s looks as long as he could get laid. ¡°I think a rock fell and hit me,¡± Sun Guoying groaned. ¡°I told you it¡¯s dangerous here! Look at what happened. You shouldn¡¯t have ignored my warning!¡± Mrs. Niu snorted. ¡°Do I look like I have a choice? My wife¡¯s like a prison guard. She would even follow me to the toilet at night!¡± the man complained in frustration. Yang Guang was surprised to hear that. This explained why the village chief would choose such a place to have an affair. ¡°So? Are you able to continue?¡± Mrs. Niu asked. ¡°Do you think I¡¯m made out of steel? Of course not! Thank heavens the rock wasn¡¯t too big, otherwise I would be dead now!¡± Sun Guoying cursed and scuffled to get dressed. Mrs. Niu also got up to put on her clothes. ¡°Why did I even agree to come here with you? What a pain in the ass.¡± Yang Guang almost burst out in laughter. He had to cover his mouth with his hands to prevent his voice from escaping while his shoulders shook. Knowing that they were about to leave the cave, the young man quickly hid in a corner and tried to hide in the shadows him as much as possible. Yang Guang wasn¡¯t actually afraid of being discovered by Sun Guoying. They were already enemies and it would actually be a good thing for him to expose the village chief. He could use this to threaten Sun Guoying to stop him from messing with him. However, when he realized that he would be exposing Mrs. Niu along with him, he decided not to do so. Mrs. Niu had a hard life as well. She was just in her early-forties when her husband and son both died in the mining incident. The owner of the mine disappeared, leaving the families of the deceased without any reimbursement. Yang Guang could tell that it had taken her a lot of effort to struggle to live on. It was understandable that she would feel lonely from time to time and needed the embrace of a man. Since Yang Guang did not have anything against Mrs. Niu, he didn¡¯t want to cause trouble for her and decided to remain hidden instead. When the both of them passed where Yang Guang was hiding, because of shock and anger, they didn¡¯t notice that there was someone in the corner. Yang Guang waited until the both of them left before turning on the flashlight. He mumbled, ¡°It seems that I¡¯ll have to install a gate and lock it if I want to use this cave.¡± He then started to venture further in with his flashlight. The temperature inside was consistent at fifty to sixty degrees throughout the year, whether it was summer or winter. It was a good place to plant crops. Yang Guang continued surveying the cave, looking for places that needed modification and locating all the dangers lurking inside it. He kept walking until he came to a dead end. Suddenly, he heard rustling next to his head. He was stunned for a second before he pointed his flashlight at the direction of the sound. When he noticed something sliding around on the floor, he let out a shriek and jumped in surprise. It was a huge python! As Yang Guang was completely flustered, he couldn¡¯t even take a closer look at the snake. All he knew was that the snake was as thick as a man¡¯s thigh and it was closing in on him fast. ¡°F**k this!¡± Yang Guang cursed and immediately turned to run. He couldn¡¯t believe that there was such a humongous snake living inside the cave as there had never been a report of one being spotted. Could it be because it has been quite some time since a human has been here, and it had all this time to grow? Yang Guang speculated. His fright caused him to trip on something and he fell face-first to the ground. The next thing he felt was something cold wrapping around his leg. ¡°S**t! Is this the end for me?¡± Yang Guang cried and almost burst into tears. The python swiftly wrapped itself around Yang Guang¡¯s body and started to squeeze the life out of him. ¡°No! I can¡¯t die yet! I haven¡¯t married a beautiful girl! I need to master the Method of Divine Farmer! My family is waiting for me to make them rich!¡± Yang Guang roared and his vitality returned. He used his newly found strength to struggle against the creature. After a few seconds, he could feel the snake starting to loosen its hold of him. Just as Yang Guang thought he was about to win, the snake exerted even more force, causing Yang Guang to get even more anxious. ¡°F**k! Let¡¯s see who wears out first!¡± Without any weapon on him, Yang Guang lowered his head and bit the snake. The snake¡¯s skin was tough and covered in scales. It took him a few bites to remove the scales. Yang Guang had gone into a rampage. All he could think of was surviving. His animal instinct took over his body and he started to rip the snake¡¯s flesh from its bone. Triggered by the pain, the python poured its utmost into trying to kill Yang Guang first. It had become a test of endurance. Whoever could endure it longer would be able to live. Yang Guang¡¯s face was already covered in the snake¡¯s blood. Yet, he didn¡¯t slow him down as he continued to bite the cold-blooded animal. After a few minutes, he could see the insides of the snake and he wasted no time shoving his hand in. He didn¡¯t know exactly what he was grabbing, but he knew it was part of the snake¡¯s intestines. He put all his strength into his arm and pulled. ¡°Go to h*ll!¡± As soon as he pulled it out, the snake began to tremble. Yang Guang could feel that the snake was starting to lose its strength, and soon it fell to the ground. Yang Guang was completely exhausted. The moment he was out of his state of panic, he fainted. He had no idea how much time had passed since he blacked out. When he finally came to, the first thing he smelled was the stench of blood. The snake on his body was now completely lifeless. ¡°Whew! I almost died back there.¡± Yang Guang let out a sigh of relief. He then noticed that he was holding something that resembled a ball. When he squeezed it, it was cold to touch. He tried to find his flashlight but to no avail. He got up and left the cave with the unknown object in his hand. After tripping a few times, he finally made it to the entrance. He raised his head to check where the sun was and saw that it was already in the west, meaning that it was already starting to set. Judging from how low the sun was, Yang Guang estimated that it had been three hours since he entered the cave. He then raised his hand only to find that he was holding a huge snake gallbladder. ¡°Oh? Isn¡¯t this a rare find?¡± Yang Guang grinned. He brought the gallbladder up to his mouth to bite down on it so that he could suck the liquid inside. Who was the predator now? Yang Guang scoffed as he gulped the liquid down his throat. Chapter 32 - Intimidation Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang knew that the cold liquid inside the snake¡¯s gallbladder was nutritional for humans when consumed. Even though the benefits wouldn¡¯t do much for the young man, he still drank it down anyway to suppress the shock from having almost died and as an act of spite towards the snake that had almost killed him. After downing everything, the bitter taste still lingered inside his mouth but his stomach was warm. He wiped his mouth before leaving the cave. Stars were already out when he finally returned. Almost everyone was already back home preparing dinner and the village was filled with aromas. There wasn¡¯t anyone out in the street. When Yang Guang almost reached home, he could hear an argument from the courtyard. Among the different voices, he recognized Sun Guoying¡¯s immediately. Yang Guang¡¯s heart skipped a beat, unable to believe that the village chief would actually have the audacity to try and mess with him again. He hastened his pace and the moment he charged in, he realized there were two other women standing next to Sun Guoying with their arms crossed. Along with the man, they were all yelling at Xu Ling. Xu Ling looked troubled as she tried to explain, but it was obvious that they weren¡¯t listening. ¡°What is going on here?¡± Yang Guang roared angrily. Everyone turned to look at him and Sun Lanxiang¡¯s face turned pale. ¡°Goodness!¡± she screamed as she fell to the ground. Li Shunlan¡¯s legs trembled when she saw Yang Guang and had to grab onto Sun Guoying¡¯s arm to prevent herself from falling over. As a man, Sun Guoying tried to keep his composure, but a chill still ran down his spine. ¡°A-are you Yang Guang?¡± ¡°What? Can¡¯t recognize me now?¡± Yang Guang scoffed before it occurred to him and he touched his face. He realized that it was covered in dried blood. It had dried to the point that it formed a layer like a shell over his face. He quickly ran to the hose to wash it off. Xu Ling walked up to him and asked, ¡°What happened?¡± ¡°A python almost killed me. That bastard was huge!¡± Yang Guang sighed as red water flowed over the floor. After washing his face, he wiped it dry. ¡°Xu Ling, are Sun Guoying and his sister causing you any trouble?¡± ¡°Not really. It¡¯s just that they aren¡¯t happy with me looking into how many low-income families there are in this village.¡± Xu Ling smiled sadly. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯m here to back you up.¡± Yang Guang patted her shoulder and turned to Sun Guoying. Sun Lanxiang and Li Shunlan had somewhat recovered from their shock by now. When they realized the person was indeed Yang Guang instead of some lunatic, Sun Lanxiang yelled, ¡°You little brat! What were you up to? Are you trying to scare us to death?¡± ¡°That would be good. How dare you cause a scene at my home?¡± Yang Guang had never liked Sun Lanxiang, who was Sun Guoying¡¯s younger sister. She was already in her late forties and her son was working in the city. Even though her son could earn a few thousand a month, she still had her brother register her family as a low-income household. Her house was stacked with expensive electric appliances and yet, no villager could confront her because of her brother. As for Li Shunlan, she was Sun Guoying¡¯s sister-in-law. Her husband had died in the mining incident as well, but as the owner of the only convenience store in the village, she still earned more than Yang Guang, who was the village¡¯s only doctor. Seeing that they wanted to register themselves as low-income families despite not meeting the criteria, Yang Guang didn¡¯t bother with holding himself back when confronting them. Sun Lanxiang was shocked that Yang Guang would talk back. ¡°Y-you little brat! How dare you talk to me that way? Get lost! I don¡¯t have the time to argue with you!¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and turned to Sun Guoying, ¡°So, you think that the secretary¡¯s decision is wrong?¡± ¡°Of course! Their families meet all the requirements. How could she cancel their names from the list? Does she think she has more power than me, the village chief?¡± Sun Guoying argued while glaring at Xu Ling. ¡°Who do you think you are? How dare you call yourself our village chief?¡± Yang Guang scoffed and decided to threaten him. ¡°Oh, right! you almost got killed by a rock earlier today, right? Should I head over to your house and tell Sun Dawei¡¯s mom about what you did today?¡± ¡°W-what are you talking about?¡± Sun Guoying¡¯s face turned pale as his eyes widened. Seeing her brother¡¯s change of expression, Sun Lanxiang asked, ¡°What is he talking about?¡± ¡°Do you want to know? Let me tell you.¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Today, inside the cave on the hill¡­¡± The young man spoke slowly while observing Sun Guoying. The latter¡¯s face changed from pale white to a bloody red due from anger and embarrassment. ¡°Shut it!¡± Sun Guoying cut Yang Guang¡¯s sentence short. ¡°That¡¯s enough!¡± ¡°What? What makes you think you can order me around in my own home? Isn¡¯t that out of your jurisdiction?¡± Yang Guang laughed. ¡°Y-you! Forget it!¡± Sun Guoying barked and turned to leave. Sun Lanxiang and Li Shunlan followed him out. There was no way they would stay with Sun Guoying gone. They could not understand why what Yang Guang said scared the village chief to this extent. Yang Guang laughed until all three of them left. ¡°What just happened?¡± Xu Ling asked. ¡°How did you manage to chase Sun Guoying away with just a few sentences? You mentioned something about a cave, right?¡± ¡°Oh? Are you curious as well? Should I tell you what I saw in detail?¡± Noticing the cunningness in the young man¡¯s eyes, Xu Ling jumped back. ¡°Forget it. I don¡¯t really want to know.¡± She then went back into the building. ¡°Hey! Hold up!¡± Yang Guang chased after her. ¡°Aren¡¯t you curious as to why my face was covered in blood?¡± ¡°Right!¡± In the end, Xu Ling was still worried about him. ¡°How did you get that on your face?¡± ¡°I literally almost died.¡± Yang Guang laughed awkwardly and told Xu Ling about his encounter with the humongous python. Despite not having been there personally, Xu Ling¡¯s face still turned pale when listening to his story. ¡°Thank goodness you¡¯re safe¡­¡± Xu Ling let out a sigh of relief. ¡°Of course! Nothing would happen to me!¡± Yang Guang smiled at her. ¡°I thought of you when the snake wrapped itself around me and it gave me strength to bite it to death!¡± Despite knowing that Yang Guang was sweet-talking once again, her face turned red nonetheless as she rolled her eyes. ¡°Go to h*ll!¡± ¡°Wait. Where¡¯s Xiaolian?¡± Yang Guang decided to change the topic. ¡°She said she went to her mother¡¯s,¡± Xu Ling answered and went into the kitchen to prepare dinner. Yang Guang nodded, knowing that Xiaolian would be able to sleep better after giving the money to her mother. Since the village Sun Guihua lived in was only ten minutes away from Qingshan Village by an electric scooter, Yang Guang wasn¡¯t that worried about his sister-in-law. He then helped Xu Ling with dinner and they waited for Xiaolian to return. Yet, after a long wait and when the sun had fully set, Wu Xiaolian still hadn¡¯t returned. Yang Guang felt that something was off. ¡°Xu Ling, could I borrow your scooter? I want to go check on her.¡± ¡°I¡¯ll go with you!¡± Xu Ling stood up to follow him. ¡°Something must have happened if she¡¯s not back at this hour!¡± Chapter 33 - Greed Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Since it wasn¡¯t safe to leave Xu Ling alone at home at nighttime, Yang Guang didn¡¯t object to her decision to come with him. They quickly prepared and left. Yang Guang sat on his electric bike and waited for Xu Ling to sit behind him before switching the engine on and taking off. Since it was already dark, Yang Guang turned the headlights on and headed straight toward Donggou Village. Even though the electric bike had been designed as a two-seater, Xu Ling had installed a storage box on the back and so she had to sit a little more forward than usual. Because of that, their bodies would touch from time to time. When Xu Ling noticed that, it was already too late for her to regret her decision to go with Yang Guang. All she could do was rest her hands on the young man¡¯s shoulders to prevent their bodies from touching as much as possible. However, Xu Ling had underestimated Yang Guang. Understanding what the lady behind him was trying to do, the man would suddenly jam on the brakes or suddenly speed up. With the help of the sudden changes of speed, he was able to enjoy a heavenly feeling on his back. When he felt two soft things squeezed against his back, he was so excited that he was about to have a nosebleed. Xu Ling¡¯s face became completely red from her chest constantly touching Yang Guang¡¯s back. She finally couldn¡¯t endure it anymore and moved her hands up to strangle Yang Guang. ¡°You little brat! Can¡¯t you drive properly?¡± ¡°It¡¯s not my fault. The road has many holes in it.¡± Yang Guang lied blatantly. ¡°Lies!¡± Xu Ling scolded. Fortunately for her, Donggou Village wasn¡¯t that far from Qingshan Village. It only took them a few minutes to see the lights as they approached Donggou Village. The moment they entered the village, they could hear a commotion. Yang Guang could tell something was wrong and sped up. When they arrived at the Wu family¡¯s house, the lights were on and a lot of villagers had gathered outside to watch what was happening inside. ¡°I knew it!¡± Yang Guang clicked his tongue. ¡°Something is wrong.¡± He quickly stopped the bike and charged into the Wu family¡¯s home. The first thing he saw was Yaya, who had just learned how to stand but still didn¡¯t know how to walk, standing and crying. As for Wu Xiaolian, she was being dragged around by a middle-aged man with a dark skin tone. Yang Guang roared and leaped forward, launching a kick at the middle-aged man. The man was immediately sent flying, and, with a loud bang, his body hit the wall of the house. Xu Ling had also run in and picked up Yaya, while trying to calm the little girl down. Yang Guang turned to look at his sister-in-law, whose face was already covered in tears, and assured her, ¡°Xiaolian, don¡¯t worry. I¡¯m here.¡± ¡°Guang! L¡­lai Laosi is trying to force me to go back with him!¡± Wu Xiaolian sobbed. With Yang Guang around, Wu Xiaolian finally felt safe. ¡°What? Didn¡¯t he get his money back? He has no right to do this.¡± Yang Guang roared and turned to Sun Guihua and Wu Daming. ¡°What¡¯s going on here? Do you guys want another beating?¡± HMPH! Sun Guihua scoffed with her arms crossed in front of her. ¡°Kill me if you dare!¡± As for Wu Daming, he didn¡¯t say anything and kept his head down to avoid meeting Yang Guang¡¯s eyes. Lai Laosi struggled to get up and pointed at Yang Guang. ¡°You must be the dead husband¡¯s little brother, right?¡± This middle-aged man had angered Yang Guang with just a single sentence. He took a few steps toward Lai Laosi and slapped him in the face. Lai Laosi gasped and put his hand on his cheek. ¡°Y¡­you b*stard! Are you trying to kill me? Come on! Hit me on the head with all your might. Come on.¡± ¡°Get lost!¡± Yang Guang scowled and kicked Lai Laosi, sending the middle-aged man to the floor again. The young man then turned to Wu Xiaolian and asked, ¡°What¡¯s going on? Didn¡¯t you give them the money?¡± ¡°I did, but my brother took 50,000 from Lai Laosi.¡± Wu Xiaolian sobbed. ¡°What the heck?¡± Yang Guang turned to look at Wu Daming. ¡°And here I am, wondering why you are keeping your mouth shut. Wu Daming, do you hate your sister that much?¡± ¡°You can¡¯t blame me,¡± Wu Daming suddenly said. ¡°M¡­my fiance¡¯s family is asking for more wedding gifts. I didn¡¯t have a choice.¡± ¡°And you sold your sister, just like that? Why don¡¯t you just sell one of your kidneys instead?¡± Yang Guang charged forward and was about to hit Wu Daming when Sun Guihua stepped in between them and yelled, ¡°You will have to kill me before you can hit my son.¡± Yang Guang was completely dumbstruck by Sun Guihua¡¯s actions. ¡°Guang, just ignore them,¡± Xu Ling suddenly stepped in and said, ¡°Yaya is terrified. Let¡¯s go back.¡± ¡°Go back?¡± Lai Laosi, who was pretending to be out cold on the floor, suddenly leaped up. ¡°In your dreams! Either you give me the money back or I take the girl with me.¡± ¡°You want your money? Take it from them,¡± Yang Guang said while pointing at Sun Guihua and Wu Daming, before grabbing Wu Xiaolian¡¯s hand. ¡°Xiaolian, let¡¯s go.¡± ¡°Xiaolian!¡± Sun Guihua roared. ¡°If you leave now, I¡¯ll kill myself.¡± When Wu Xiaolian heard that, she couldn¡¯t bring herself to leave. She turned to look at her mother and wailed, ¡°Mom, why are you trying to send me to h*ll?¡± ¡°No! I¡¯m not sending you to h*ll! I¡¯m going to h*ll myself!¡± Sun Guihua scolded and ran headfirst toward the wall. Fortunately, Wu Daming was next to his mother and managed to pull her back. The son then grabbed a hatchet and roared at Yang Guang, ¡°F*ck it! Either you live or we live.¡± ¡°Shut the h*ll up!¡± Yang Guang was so angry that his eyes were completely red. With a kick, he sent Wu Daming flying backward. The scene was a complete mess. There were people crying and people yelling, while the villagers standing outside were gossiping loudly. ¡°Shut the f*ck up!¡± Yang Guang roared when he noticed that his sister-in-law was trembling in fear. That one roar was able to send a chill down everyone¡¯s spine, forcing them all to shut up. Yang Guang then look at Sun Guihua and her son and said, ¡°You want money? Fine! I¡¯ll give you money.¡± The young man then turned to Lai Laosi. ¡°Wu Daming took 100,000 from you, right?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right!¡± Lai Laosi acted tough despite trying to keep his distance from Yang Guang. ¡°I will give you the money, but you have to swear that you will never approach Xiaolian again.¡± ¡°That¡¯s not enough! You kicked me twice! You have to pay for my hospital bill too,¡± Lai Laosi said. ¡°You sure are greedy,¡± Yang Guang scoffed. ¡°So? Either you kill me or I keep causing the Wu family and you trouble until the day one of us dies!¡± ¡°How much do you want?¡± Yang Guang scowled. His eyes were filled with killing intent. Lai Laosi felt as if the temperature had suddenly plummeted. He shivered and said, ¡°150,000. And I promise you I won¡¯t approach Xiaolian ever again.¡± ¡°Who gives you the right to address her like that?¡± Yang Guang roared. ¡°You better make sure you keep your word. Everyone here is a witness!¡± ¡°So? Do you even have 150,000?¡± Lai Laosi scoffed and rolled his eyes. ¡°I do.¡± Yang Guang laughed and turned to look at Sun Guihua and Wu Daming. ¡°And you two¡­¡± ¡°W¡­.what do you want?¡± Wu Daming asked nervously while taking a step back. Chapter 34 - Comforting Wu Xiaolian Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Don¡¯t worry,¡± Yang Guang said with a disgusted expression. ¡°I don¡¯t want to dirty my hands from punching you. It¡¯s just a waste of energy. You two can even keep the 50,000 Xiaolian just gave you, but with one condition.¡± ¡°What is it?¡± Wu Daming asked. ¡°Swear that you will have nothing to do with Xiaolian ever again. I want her out of your family,¡± Yang Guang ordered. Wu Daming was shocked by the demand and turned to look at his mother. ¡°Yang Guang, drop the act,¡± Sun Guihua scoffed. ¡°I won¡¯t believe a word you say until you show us the money.¡± ¡°Like h*ll I care if you believe me or not. I have the say in this. Do you agree or not?¡± Yang Guang roared. ¡°I¡¯ll agree, if you can give Lai Laosi his money,¡± Sun Guihua said. Wu Xiaolian¡¯s face turned pale, and she bit her lips when she heard that her mother was willing to abandon her. ¡°Very well!¡± Yang Guang nodded and turned to Lai Laosi. ¡°Get over here. I¡¯ll transfer you the money.¡± ¡°Are you serious? Where did you get the money from?¡± Lai Laosi was completely dumbfounded. He had not expected that Yang Guang was serious about paying him back. ¡°Why does that matter? 150,000 is a small number for me. Do you want it or not?¡± ¡°O¡­of course I do! I¡¯m no idiot!¡± Lai Laosi nodded and took his phone out. Yang Guang¡¯s flip phone did not have the function for him to access his bank account to make the transaction. However, he had transferred a part of his money to Xu Ling to prepare for the greenhouse. With all that was happening, Yang Guang had decided to push his plan to build a greenhouse back and solve this problem at hand first. Xu Ling took her phone out and transferred the money to Lai Laosi. When the middle-aged man saw the 150,000 in his account, he raised his head and smiled like an idiot. ¡°Brat, not bad! You actually found yourself a rich girlfriend.¡± ¡°F*ck off! That¡¯s my money!¡± Yang Guang cursed and ignored Lai Laosi. He then turned to Wu Xiaolian and smiled, ¡°Xiaolian, let¡¯s go home.¡± ¡°Okay¡­¡± Wu Xiaolian replied in a low, weak tone. Seeing the state that his sister-in-law was in, Yang Guang turned to Xu Ling and said, ¡°Ling, can you take Yaya back on my bike? I¡¯ll take Xiaolian back with yours.¡± Wu Xiaolian¡¯s heart had been broken by her family. There was no way Yang Guang could let her ride back on her own as it would be dangerous. Xu Ling also saw the state Wu Xiaolian was in and nodded in understanding. ¡°Okay!¡± She put the baby sling with Yaya sound asleep inside over her shoulder and started Yang Guang¡¯s bike. The whole village was dead quiet. Not one person dared to make a sound. Yang Guang didn¡¯t even want to spend another second in this village. He dragged Wu Xiaolian out of her mother¡¯s home and sat her on the back of Xu Ling¡¯s bike. When he drove out of the village, he could feel her wrapping her arms around his waist while resting her head on his back. Her body was trembling, and he soon felt his back getting wet. Knowing that Wu Xiaolian was crying, Yang Guang quickly comforted her, ¡°Xiaolian, don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ll always be there for you.¡± Wu Xiaolian did not say a word but nodded. Just like that, the two of them headed back to Qingshan Village without any conversation while Xu Ling followed behind them with mixed feelings. Not only had she had never seen anything like what had just happened back there before, but she also had never heard about such a thing before. When she personally witnessed what Wu Xiaolian had had to go through, she couldn¡¯t help but sympathize with the widow. It also made her think of something else. Even though Sun Guihua¡¯s cold heart was one of the reasons for that to happen, being poor was also an important factor. There were people who would abandon their families for money. When they finally got back home, it was already very late. Yang Guang stopped the bike in front of his door, and Wu Xiaolian got down first. Just as she was about to take a step, she lost all the strength in her body and fell toward the floor. Fortunately, Yang Guang managed to let go of the bike and catch her in time. Xu Ling also saw what happened and quickly parked her bike as well. ¡°What happened?¡± ¡°She¡¯s just heartbroken. She¡¯ll be fine after some rest,¡± Yang Guang said and helped Wu Xiaolian back to her room. ¡°I¡¯ll let Yaya rest in my room then. I¡¯ll go and check up on Xiaolian after that.¡± Xu Ling nodded and took Yaya back to her room. Yang Guang helped Wu Xiaolian back to her room and let her sit on the chair. He then smiled bitterly and said, ¡°Xiaolian, don¡¯t think too much about what happened tonight. Get a good rest and everything will be fine tomorrow. It¡¯ll be a new start for you when you open your eyes.¡± Yang Guang wanted to comfort her, but after saying that, Wu Xiaolian started to sob and hugged Yang Guang. ¡°Guang¡­why is my life so hard?¡± Hearing her cry brought tears to Yang Guang¡¯s eyes as well. Xu Ling also heard the crying and stopped in front of Wu Xiaolian¡¯s room. Even though Yang Guang was hugging Wu Xiaolian and could feel her body heat, his heart was very heavy. He kept patting her back and tried to comfort her. After standing outside for a while, Xu Ling decided to turn around and return to her room. Yang Guang had no idea how much time had passed until Wu Xiaolian stopped crying and fell asleep in his arms. He was scared to move, worrying that any slight movement would wake her up. However, realizing that it wasn¡¯t comfortable for her to sleep in such a position, he decided to slowly pick her up and put her down on her bed. Yang Guang was stunned when he saw the sweat on her forehead and his heart began to hurt. Since his arm was still under Wu Xiaolian¡¯s waist, he was about to slowly pull it out when she suddenly hugged him. ¡°Huh?¡± Yang Guang exclaimed, knowing that Wu Xiaolian had woken up. However, he noticed that she kept her eyes shut but her cheeks were starting to turn red. Yang Guang did not know how to react. With Yang Guang still stunned, Wu Xiaolian suddenly pulled him down toward her. Just as he was about to fall onto her, Yang Guang quickly stopped the fall by pushing against the bed. He then slowly moved toward the side and lay down next to her. Wu Xiaolian was still hugging him but she had stopped moving. Yang Guang¡¯s eyes were opened as wide as possible He couldn¡¯t believe what was happening. Wu Xiaolian suddenly nudged him a little to look for a comfortable position and fell back asleep. What is happening? Does she want me to stay with her? Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but think. He then convinced himself that she needed someone to be by her side after suffering such a huge shock. Every woman would need a man who she could rely on, but there was no one for her except for Yang Guang. Yang Guang understood that Wu Xiaolian was too embarrassed to ask him to stay as it might cause some misunderstanding. Thus, she pretended to pull him down while she was asleep so that he would stay. Since that was the case, Yang Guang decided to play along and not leave. However, there was no way he could fall asleep with something that soft in his arms. Their bodies were so close to each other that he could even feel her breathing. That was his first time experiencing such a thing. But he was afraid to move as well as it might wake Wu Xiaolian up. Just like that, Yang Guang could only stare at the ceiling throughout the whole night. It wasn¡¯t until the sun finally rose and the roosters started to crow that Wu Xiaolian finally let go of him and changed position. When Yang Guang looked at Wu Xiaolian, who was now lying sideways, and noticed how curvy her body was, he couldn¡¯t help but gulp. Not long after that, he could hear someone tiptoeing outside, which was quickly followed by the door creaking open a little. When Xu Ling looked inside, her eyes met Yang Guang¡¯s, and both of them were completely stunned. Yang Guang saw Xu Ling¡¯s eyes widen, and he knew she must have misunderstood the situation. He quickly got up and left Wu Xiaolian¡¯s room. ¡°It¡¯s not what you think,¡± Yang Guang said in a low voice.. ¡°It¡¯s definitely not what you think.¡± Chapter 35 - Retribution Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xu Ling glanced at Yang Guang and asked, ¡°I didn¡¯t say anything. How do you know what I¡¯m thinking?¡± ¡°I was afraid that you would get the wrong idea.¡± Yang Guang laughed and then explained, ¡°Last night, she fell asleep in my arms. I knew she felt insecure, so I stayed with her.¡± Xu Ling stopped him. ¡°You don¡¯t have to explain anything to me. I¡¯m not dwelling on it.¡± She changed the subject. ¡°By the way, last night, you gave Lai Laosi 30,000. Wasn¡¯t it too much?¡± Upon hearing this, Yang Guang replied bitterly, ¡°Of course it is. But what can I do? That is the only way to save my sister-in-law and to help her break away from the Wu family so that she won¡¯t continue to be harassed by them.¡± ¡°You¡¯re right!¡± Xu Ling nodded before sighing. ¡°But I still think it¡¯s unfortunate that the idea of the greenhouse is gone.¡± ¡°It¡¯s all right. There¡¯s still money left, and soon I¡¯ll be able to earn more. In the future, hundreds of thousands of millions of dollars will come in, so that amount is nothing,¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. Xu Ling glanced at him. ¡°You¡¯re just bluffing. Making money isn¡¯t that easy!¡± ¡°Well, for me, it¡¯s pretty easy.¡± Yang Guang then whispered, ¡°Let her sleep in. Let¡¯s make breakfast together.¡± ¡°Okay,¡± Xu Ling agreed, and the two of them went out together. A new day had begun in Qingshan Village¡­ Breakfast had been freshly prepared. Yang Guang was about to call his sister-in-law to come eat when a police car suddenly pulled up at the door and two uniformed officers entered the courtyard. Upon seeing them, Xu Ling immediately ran over and greeted them with a smile, ¡°Chief Hu, what brings you here?¡± ¡°Secretary Xu, we¡¯re here for an investigation.¡± Hu Jian smiled and turned to look at Yang Guang. Yang Guang walked over and asked in confusion, ¡°What do you need from me?¡± ¡°You must be Yang Guang. Lai Laosi said that you were the one who transferred him the money in his account. Is that true?¡± Hu Jian asked. ¡°Yes, it happened last night. I asked Secretary Xu for help with the transfer.¡± Yang Guang nodded, and then asked with some curiosity, ¡°It was only a few grand. It¡¯s not such a large sum that it would alarm the police, right?¡± Upon hearing this, Hu Jian said with a smile, ¡°Normally, it wouldn¡¯t have alarmed us, but Lai Laosi was caught gambling last night, and we needed to investigate the source of his funds.¡± ¡°What? He was arrested?¡± Yang Guang and Xu Ling were both stunned for they hadn¡¯t expected such a turn of events. Yang Guang quickly asked, ¡°He¡¯s been arrested? What will happen to the money?¡± ¡°The suspected amount was too large, and all of it has been confiscated,¡± Hu Jian answered. Yang Guang was delighted when he heard the news. ¡°That¡¯s great.¡± Hu Jian took a moment to process his reaction before asking, ¡± Could you tell me in detail what the money was all about?¡± ¡°Of course.¡± Yang Guang began explaining the circumstances of the incident. Hu Jian replied, ¡°I see. If the money comes from a legitimate source, then there isn¡¯t any issue.¡± ¡°Well, Lai Laosi got what he deserved. I was feeling a little upset about giving him money, but now it¡¯s all good.¡± Yang Guang laughed. After sending off the two policemen, Yang Guang was in good spirits and hurried back to his room to announce the great news to Xiaolian. Xiaolian had slept well the night before, and she had actually already been awake since earlier. However, when she remembered what had happened last night, she was afraid to go out as she had no idea how to face Yang Guang. Just then, the door rattled and when she saw Yang Guang come in, blood rushed to her face. Yang Guang pretended not to notice and said with a smile, ¡°Xiaolian, Lai Laosi was caught gambling last night and his money was all confiscated. Don¡¯t you think that this is something we should celebrate?¡± ¡°He deserved it.¡± Xiaolian agreed with a nod. ¡°That¡¯s right. He got what he deserved!¡± Yang Guang said with a smile, ¡°Xiaolian, breakfast is ready. Hurry up and come eat.¡± He then turned and left. Xiaolian was left staring blankly at his back in a daze. A moment later, she came to her senses and stood up with a soft sigh. During breakfast, Yang Guang and Xu Ling did not mention what had happened last night. They played with Yaya while discussing the greenhouse. The land could be handled easily. As a result of the mining accident, there were only elderly, women and children left in the village and much of the arable land was deserted, so as long as they talked to the villagers and spent some money, they should be able to get the contract. On the issue of construction, they would have to seek out professionals. Fortunately, Xu Ling had had a few words with the village chief of the neighboring Shifu Village during the town meeting, and they had some vegetable greenhouses there, so they could give them a link with a construction team. When it came to this, Yang Guang glanced at Xu Ling. ¡°I¡¯ll leave the greenhouse business to you. I have to head to town today for some other business.¡± ¡°Business? What do you have to do?¡± Xu Ling asked. ¡°I still have to prepare for the planting of the Tianma, which has been delayed for several days,¡± Yang Guang answered. Xu Ling nodded. ¡°I see. The money is with me anyway, so I¡¯ll call the shots here on your behalf.¡± ¡°Thanks, Xu Ling. I¡¯ll treat you to a good meal some time,¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. Xu Ling rolled her eyes. ¡°Forget food. It¡¯s a huge investment after all, so just trust me!¡± Yang Guang laughed. ¡°What are you talking about? We¡¯re a family, so what¡¯s there to worry about?¡± Xu Ling blushed and glared at him, ¡°You¡¯re trying to take advantage of me again.¡± ¡°What? I meant that we are as close as siblings,¡± Yang Guang explained. Wu Xiaolian watched with a smile on her face as the young pair bickered, but an unexplained feeling began to rise in her heart, and she couldn¡¯t quite tell what it was. After breakfast, everyone went about their own business. After a bumpy ride to town, Yang Guang first headed for an internet cafe. He was not here to enjoy himself, but to do some research. Ironically, despite vowing to grow Tianma in three months, he didn¡¯t even know about its characteristics, the environment it grew in, or the cultivation methods. So he had to understand all of this first before buying what he needed. Time was of the essence. Yang Guang wanted to hurry up and get this done. He couldn¡¯t let himself dawdle and end up losing to Mu Xiaowan despite having planted Tianma. Concentrating on the information on the screen. Yang Guang didn¡¯t use a pen or paper to record the information, but quickly memorized the contents. He didn¡¯t know what was happening, but he felt that his intelligence had grown substantially since he¡¯d inherited the Method of Divine Farmer, and he was able to remember complex content after reading it only once. The internet cafe was quite crowded at this time, and the majority of the customers were young. They were older teenagers who played a team game which involved toppling towers. Everyone had been minding their own business without bothering anyone else, until someone behind Yang Guang snickered, ¡°There are still people who use flip phones?¡± Yang Guang froze and turned around to find two teenage boys looking at him with disdain. Chapter 36 - Car Accident Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Seeing their expressions, Yang Guang asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with using a flip phone?¡± ¡°Nothing. I just think if you can¡¯t even afford a smartphone, you must be really poor, right?¡± one of boys said. Another echoed, ¡°That¡¯s right, I suggest you stop surfing the internet because it¡¯s very expensive here, so let us have the spot.¡± Yang Guang was amused as he looked around and found that there were indeed no empty seats left, so these two were merely looking for a place. He smiled and said to them, ¡°If you want my spot and say something nice, like calling me Daddy or something, I might say yes.¡± ¡°Kid, are you looking for a beating?¡± After being dissed, the young man in white asked Yang Guang in an enraged tone of voice. ¡°It¡¯s you guys who are looking for a beating, so get lost!¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and turned to continue reading the information on the screen. Since they were young and hotheaded, how could those two young people take this lying down? Therefore, the man in white raised his palm and was ready to teach Yang Guang a good lesson. However, unexpectedly, his palm was about to hit Yang Guang in the back of the head when it missed. The unexpected movement spun him around and he stumbled into the seat beside Yang Guang. In that seat, there was a bald man with a chubby face. He was watching a beautiful woman dance. The bald man was startled by the ruckus and took off his headphones in anger as he said, ¡°What the heck is going on?¡± ¡°Sorry, I didn¡¯t mean to do it.¡± The man in white saw that he looked aggressive and quickly apologized. Yang Guang was speechless when he saw this. It turned out that they were picking on him because he looked like a pushover. Therefore, he couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°So you aren¡¯t really that tough, but a bully who picks on pushovers and kisses up to those who seem intimidating?¡± ¡°Kid, I dare you to go outside and fight with me,¡± the man in white got red in the face and bellowed angrily. ¡°Get lost! I¡¯m busy!¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and started to look at the screen attentively. The two young men didn¡¯t want to mess with him, so they stopped clamoring and exchanged glances before heading out. The small incident was over. Yang Guang put it out of his mind and looked at the information attentively. After a while, after he had memorized all the knowledge about Tianma cultivation by heart, he went up to the bar to settle his bill. It wasn¡¯t even noon yet, so he decided to go to the wholesale market for some shopping. As Yang Guang got outside, he planned to hail a taxi and leave. However, unexpectedly, right after he¡¯d gone out, an eerie laugh came from behind him as someone said, ¡°Kid, you finally came out.¡± After a moment of shock, Yang Guang saw the two young men standing to his left and right with steel pipe thicker than his thumb in their hands. ¡°Holy sh*t, you guys are going to beat me up?¡± Yang Guang widened his eyes in some consternation. ¡°That¡¯s right! We¡¯re going to beat you up, you cocky b*stard!¡± As soon as the words left his mouth, the man in white raised the steel pipe in his hands; BOOM! There was a muffled sound, but instead of Yang Guang, it was him who had been hit. Before the steel pipe landed on Yang Guang, the man in white felt a tightness in his chest and then flew backward. Unfortunately, he flew in the direction of the road. The traffic was busy, so it was too late for Yang Guang to regret it. He watched as the guy flew past and landed heavily on a passing car, where he crushed the windshield. ¡°D*mn, this sucks!¡± Yang Guang¡¯s heart sank as he turned his head to look at the other person and asked, ¡°Do you still want to fight?¡± ¡°No, no, no more fighting!¡± The man was scared out of his wits and couldn¡¯t have cared less about his companion at that moment. He threw down the steel pipe and fled. Yang Guang did not leave, but instead approached the car that had braked sharply to stop. Innocent people had been implicated because of him, so he couldn¡¯t just ignore it, could he? Therefore, when he approached, Yang Guang lifted the man in white up and said, ¡°How are you? Are you still alive?¡± The man in white had suffered no major injuries as the momentum of his fall had been broken by the glass of the car. Fortunately, he¡¯d landed on the car. If he had landed on the road, the passing cars would have been unable to avoid him, and he would have been squashed. Therefore, the man in white now had a terrified look on his face as he glanced at Yang Guang and said with fear, ¡°What in the world are you?¡± ¡°Someone you can¡¯t afford to mess with,¡± Yang Guang said, then laughed and added with a smile, ¡°If you don¡¯t want to pay them for the car, you¡¯d better hurry up and scram.¡± Only then did the man in white remember the car. He looked back at the cracked glass. He swallowed hard and turned around to leave. But then a crisp voice sounded from the car, ¡°Hey, is this a hit-and-run?¡± Yang Guang was stunned and turned his head to look and then said, ¡°How come it¡¯s you?¡± ¡°I was puzzled. I felt dreadful when I got up this morning. It turned out that I was going to bump into you.¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled his eyes and jumped out of the car. Yang Guang said with a smile, ¡°You probably woke up feeling unwell in the morning because you didn¡¯t sleep on the pillow, so don¡¯t blame me.¡± ¡°Screw you. My car costs hundreds of thousands of dollars, and the windshield costs at least $20,000 to $30,000. Who will pay?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked sulkily. Originally, Yang Guang had been planning to pay for it himself, but when he saw it was Mu Xiaowan, he shrugged his shoulders and said, ¡°The person who smashed it will pay for it.¡± ¡°Huh?¡± The man in white was baffled. Didn¡¯t he just tell him to leave? How come he changed his mind so quickly? $20,000 to $30,000 was astronomical to him, therefore the man in white quickly said, ¡°I¡¯m not to blame. I smashed it because he kicked me.¡± ¡°Kicked you?¡± Mu Xiaowan was stunned and looked at Yang Guang as he said, ¡°I wondered why someone actually landed on my car. It turns out that you did it. You¡¯re actually that powerful?¡± Yang Guang chuckled and said, ¡°You don¡¯t believe me? If you don¡¯t believe me, I¡¯ll give you a demonstration.¡± He turned to the man in white and said, ¡°Come here. I¡¯ll kick you again.¡± ¡°Why would I let you kick me?¡± The man in white rubbed his chest unhappily as he said, ¡°I said it¡¯s none of my business, so compensate him however you want. I have to go to the hospital for a checkup,¡± He turned to leave. Yang Guang had no intention of trying to stop him but said with a smile, ¡°No need to go to the hospital. You can buy some white medicine spray from the pharmacy. There is no need to thank me because this is a doctor¡¯s duty,¡± Yang Guang turned around and saw Mu Xiaowan looking at him, He froze for a moment and asked, ¡°Why are you staring at me like that?¡± ¡°You are so dramatic.¡± Mu Xiaowan glared at him and continued, ¡°You let the man go, so you have to pay for my car, don¡¯t you?¡± ¡°Of course. Don¡¯t worry. I can afford it,¡± Yang Guang patted his chest. Mu Xiaowan said with a roll of his eyes, ¡°Cut the cr*p. Don¡¯t you dig herbs for a living?¡± ¡°So what? That doesn¡¯t stop me from having money,¡± Yang Guang said, then added, ¡°Oh right, let¡¯s get on with it quickly.. I have things to do afterward.¡± Chapter 37 - A Job Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°You¡¯re very busy?¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes at Yang Guang, looked at her car, and said, ¡°I have no idea how much it¡¯s going to cost. I won¡¯t know until I take it to the shop. How about this, leave me your phone number and I¡¯ll call and give you the price later?¡± ¡°That¡¯s fine!¡± Yang Guang pulled out his phone and found the number he had previously stored and dialed it. Mu Xiaowan was stunned and looked up at him as she said, ¡°Are you calling me?¡± ¡°Yes!¡± ¡°How come you have my number?¡± Mu Xiaowan narrowed her eyes into a wary expression. ¡°It¡¯s not like it¡¯s the size of your bra, so why are you so anxious?¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°You!¡± Mu Xiaowan stomped her foot furiously. If she hadn¡¯t felt like she wouldn¡¯t be able to beat him, she would have kicked him to death already! Yang Guang chuckled and said, ¡°I got your number from Old Chen. I was thinking of finding you sometime to talk about growing herbs, but I didn¡¯t expect us to be so fated as to bump into each other on the street.¡± ¡°Like h*ll we¡¯re fated!¡± Mu Xiaowan glared at him and then said, ¡°Let me tell you one thing: we are in the business of wild herbs, no artificially grown ones, so you can¡¯t do business with us.¡± Yang Guang was stunned and said, ¡°What if the artificially grown medicine is stronger than the wild ones?¡± ¡°How is that possible?¡± Mu Xiaowan snickered and said, ¡°The artificial planting environment is bad because it lacks sufficient spiritual energy.¡± ¡°What is spiritual energy?¡± Yang Guang asked. Realizing that she had made a slip of the tongue, Mu Xiaowan changed the subject and said, ¡°It¡¯s impossible for you to work with us no matter what. Aren¡¯t you busy? Hurry up and go. I¡¯ll call you after I take the car into the shop.¡± ¡°Aren¡¯t you afraid I¡¯ll make a run for it?¡± Yang Guang asked. Mu Xiaowan glared at him and said with a sneer, ¡°You can¡¯t keep running forever. Aren¡¯t you from Qingshan Village? Finding you will be easy.¡± ¡°Okay then, I really have to go now, or growing my Tianma will be delayed for another day, and then I won¡¯t be able to get a kiss from you,¡± Yang Guang said as he turned around to leave in a hurry. Watching him leave, Mu Xiaowan gritted her teeth in anger and thought, Even if I lose, I won¡¯t kiss you. I¡¯ll bite you instead. In the afternoon, Yang Guang got on the shuttle bus to return home. Yang Guang had bought a few things today, some tools and other things he needed to plant, which were packed in a cardboard box. As for the original Tianma species, Yang Guang could go to the mountains to find them. The important point was that Tianma was a companion plant, which required honey mushrooms, something that couldn¡¯t be purchased so easily. Fortunately, he had met a business owner who dealt with edible mushrooms in the market and had ordered some mushrooms through him. Today¡¯s shipment, coming from the provincial capital, would be delivered to the county tomorrow, and then the shuttle bus would bring them to Qingshan Village. Yang Guang sat in the shuttle on the bumpy road and thought about how rich he would be once the Tianma was planted. However, at this time, his phone suddenly rang. When he noticed that it was Mu Xiaowan calling, Yang Guang picked up and asked, ¡°Did you find out the amount for the glass?¡± ¡°They said it would cost $35,000 for a replacement of the original glass,¡± Mu Xiaowan said. Yang Guang was at a loss for words. He couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°Why don¡¯t they just go rob someone? This is too expensive for a piece of glass. It¡¯s only a little more than $10 at the glass store.¡± ¡°Bullsh*t. That can¡¯t be the same.¡± Mu Xiaowan asked unhappily, ¡°You¡¯re not going to renege, are you?¡± ¡°Why would you think that?¡± Despite feeling that it was way too expensive, Yang Guang still had a sense of responsibility. He said, ¡°I¡¯ll transfer $35,000 to you after I get home.¡± However, to his surprise, Mu Xiaowan suddenly changed her tone and she said, ¡°In fact, it¡¯s okay if you don¡¯t pay me back¡­¡± ¡± Huh?¡± Yang Guang was stunned and immediately said with alarm, ¡°You¡¯re not thinking of anything crooked, are you?¡± ¡°Screw you!¡± Mu Xiaowan cursed at him and said, ¡°I just think you are good at fighting, so I would like to offer you the opportunity to do me a favor, and, if you do, I will pay for the glass myself. You don¡¯t have to pay for it.¡± ¡°That would be really nice.¡± Yang Guang was delighted to hear that, but he continued, ¡°However, to be clear, I can help, but I won¡¯t be able to do anything illegal, nor will I be forced to do anything against my will.¡± ¡°Why are you so fussy? ¡°Mu Xiaowan was clearly a little annoyed and said after scolding him, ¡°I just want you to be my bodyguard. What are you thinking?¡± ¡°Oh, a bodyguard?¡± Yang Guang understood and nodded his head as he said, ¡°All right, then I accept the offer.¡± ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll see you in the county tomorrow at 4:00 pm.¡± Mu Xiaowan hung up the phone. ¡°This woman is quite bossy.¡± As he looked at the phone, Yang Guang rolled his eyes. When he returned home, it was already late in the evening, and the family was already cooking dinner. After exchanging greetings with Wu Xiaolian and Xu Ling and putting his things down, Yang Guang took out the rattle he had bought for Yaya and rushed to find her. The faint scent of milk permeated her room as the child lay on the bed sleeping peacefully. Yang Guang had no choice but to put down the toy and head out. However, from the corner of his eye, he caught sight of a basin on the floor by the bed with a pile of clothes, on the top of which were two pieces of white underwear. Yang Guang paused in his tracks, and then, for some reason, he walked over. He knew that this was his sister-in-law¡¯s change of clothes, which he had seen before when she was being treated. However, this was the first time that he had seen the lingerie she had taken off. Yang Guang froze for a minute before slapping himself and thinking, What on earth are you thinking about? She is your sister-in-law. Yang Guang turned around and quickly walked out of the room. He went into the kitchen and offered to help prepare dinner, but Xu Ling gave him a look and said, ¡°Huh? When you came back just now, you didn¡¯t have a slap mark on your face, so why do you suddenly have a slap mark on your face?¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Yang Guang froze and his eyes darted around for a moment before he hurriedly said, ¡°A mosquito landed on my face, so I slapped it.¡± As soon as she saw his expression, she knew that he was making it up. However, Xu Ling didn¡¯t ask too many questions, but then changed the subject by saying, ¡°Did it go well today?¡± Yang Guang nodded his head and he said, ¡°The mushroom seeds will arrive tomorrow, and we can start planting the day after tomorrow.¡± He then asked, ¡°By the way, how are things in the village?¡± ¡°Mrs. Niu promised to lease her land to you, and the adjoining families followed suit,¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°That¡¯s wonderful. The vegetables and Tianma are both going to be growing together, so we¡¯ll definitely strike it rich,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Come on. Stop bragging. Hurry up and wash your hands. It¡¯s time to eat,¡± Wu Xiaolian said. On that summer night, the three of them were sitting down for dinner. They were laughing and talking together in a pleasant atmosphere. After finishing dinner, while Xu Ling was cleaning up the dishes, Wu Xiaolian gave Yang Guang a look and then turned around to return to her room. When he saw this, Yang Guang followed her in confusion and asked, ¡°Sister-in-law, what is it?¡± ¡°Today, Meng Li came again.. I think you have to seize the opportunity,¡± Wu Xiaolian said. Chapter 38 - Secrets Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang froze for a moment, but then immediately understood what Wu Xiaolian was trying to say. Therefore, he chuckled as he said, ¡°You don¡¯t have to fret about it. Xu Ling is a college student, so how could she possibly be interested in me?¡± ¡°I think Xu Ling likes you. When she¡¯s with me and she has nothing to do, she often asks about your past,¡± Wu Xiaolian said. Yang Guang said with a smile, ¡°That¡¯s just chitchat, sister-in-law, don¡¯t sweat it.¡± He didn¡¯t dislike Xu Ling, but Wu Xiaolian playing matchmaker gave him a very queasy feeling and even made him a little upset. If it had been someone else, there wouldn¡¯t have been this kind of feeling. He had no idea why. Wu Xiaolian had wanted to try to persuade him, but Yaya awoke at this moment and opened her eyes to cry. She quickly went and picked up the child. After that, as if forgetting the presence of Yang Guang, she lifted her shirt and immediately began to breastfeed Yaya. Yang Guang got a bird¡¯s-eye view of her breast. His nose started to bleed, so he hurriedly turned around and fled the room with quick steps. Xu Ling had already tidied up and was sitting in the courtyard as she watched the darkening sky, thinking about something. When he saw her perfect profile, Yang Guang froze for a moment, then went up and sat down next to her, asking, ¡°What are you thinking about?¡± ¡°I¡¯m happy. All of a sudden, I have the feeling that life in the countryside is very relaxing, much more relaxing than life in the city,¡± Xu Ling said with a smile. ¡°You can stay if you want,¡± Yang Guang said, laughing. Xu Ling glanced at him and said, ¡°Be a secretary for life?¡± ¡°Not necessarily. You can also marry someone and have kids,¡± Yang Guang said. Xu Ling was speechless, and she rolled her eyes at him and said, ¡°That¡¯s out of the question. I¡¯ll never marry anyone in my life.¡± When he saw that she was serious, Yang Guang was stunned and asked, ¡°Why?¡± ¡°You¡¯ll find out in the future.¡± After saying that, Xu Ling rose and left. As he watched her walk away, Yang Guang was completely baffled. Only then did he come to realize that Xu Ling was not as innocent as he had believed her to be and that she also had her troubles, but she never revealed them to anyone. After seeing a flash of despondency in her eyes just now, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but be curious about what she had meant by what she had said just now. He would have liked to go after her and ask, but felt that it would be too presumptuous, so he decided that he would find another opportunity to ask her later when he had time. As night fell, Yang Guang went back to his room, sat down, and started meditating. He already knew the Method of Divine Farmer¡¯s first body refining technique by heart, and every time he meditated, he could feel some more energy inside his dantian, which was nourishing his body every day, strengthening his bones, tendons, and even muscles. Currently, Yang Guang¡¯s strength already exceeded that of three adult men combined, which meant that he could easily lift something weighing at least 300 pounds. Having gained such a strong ability in such a short period of time, he was certainly elated. However, in the meantime, Yang Guang also felt a little puzzled and wondered why he had been given this opportunity to obtain the Method of Divine Farmer. Was it truly just because of luck? Or was it something that had been predestined to happen? After a night of meditating, Yang Guang not only did not feel fatigued, but he also looked radiant and felt more comfortable than after a good night¡¯s sleep. Yang Guang felt empowered, and if it hadn¡¯t been because he was afraid to scare the kid, he would have shouted at the top of his lungs. When Yang Guang walked out the door, Wu Xiaolian had already prepared breakfast. While eating, she gave Yang Guang a wink and said, ¡°You have nothing to do today, so go accompany Lingling to take a look. In any case, these greenhouses are also yours.¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Yang Guang understood what she had in mind. She just wanted him to have more contact with Xu Ling. He himself also had that in mind, plus he felt embarrassed to let her keep worrying about his business, so he immediately nodded his head. Xu Ling didn¡¯t think about it too much. but simply nodded her head as she said, ¡°It¡¯s good that you¡¯re going to see it. Today, we¡¯re going to level the land, and soon the subsequent construction will be done, and, within a month, four greenhouses will be built.¡± Yang Guang froze for a moment and said, ¡°Four? I thought we had planned to build six of them?¡± ¡°There isn¡¯t enough land, and it won¡¯t be connected to this place if we build it somewhere else, so I decided for you to build four first and save the rest of the money for other investments. We can¡¯t put all our eggs in one basket after all. You understand this, right?¡± Xu Ling said. Yang Guang nodded his head as he said, ¡°I do understand, but you still lack faith in me. If we build the greenhouses, we will soon be able to make money. Trust me!¡± In response to this remark, Xu Ling just chuckled and didn¡¯t answer. After they had breakfast, the two of them left and found that some women were already there on the south side of the village to join in the fun. When nobody was around, Yang Guang asked, ¡°I heard from my sister-in-law that Meng Li came again yesterday?¡± ¡°Yes, to see me.¡± Xu Ling nodded her head. Yang Guang was stunned and said, ¡°I thought you said you weren¡¯t interested in him, but this guy is still so shameless as to come to see you?¡± ¡°Qingshan Village is here. I can¡¯t keep him away, right?¡± Xu Ling gave him a look and then asked, ¡°Why are you concerned about this?¡± Of course, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t admit he was jealous, so he just said with a smile, ¡°No reason. I was just asking, mainly because I was afraid he would bother you.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry about that. He doesn¡¯t have the guts to do that!¡± Xu Ling then remembered something and said, ¡°By the way, I asked him about Yang Ziming, and he had nothing to do with the incident. He didn¡¯t set it up.¡± ¡°Is that so?¡± Yang Guang laughed and said, ¡°This is something that no one would admit even after doing it!¡± ¡°That¡¯s true, but I think he probably wasn¡¯t lying. Even though Meng Li is a bit cocky, he¡¯s not that despicable,¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Okay!¡± Yang Guang didn¡¯t say anything else but he was a bit unconvinced inside. In this world, those who understood the psychology of men the most were naturally men themselves. Even though he had only met Meng Li once, he could see the grim expression in the other¡¯s eyes. This guy definitely wasn¡¯t any good. This afternoon, Yang Guang had to go to the county, and if he had any spare time in the evening, he could go to the nightclub and see what Yang Ziming had to say, so he would know who was targeting him underhandedly. Yang Guang came to the edge of the field. A bulldozer had already come, and, after obtaining Xu Ling¡¯s consent, he had started to bulldoze the straw that had grown to almost as high as a person in the field. Yang Guang had rented the land and had compensated for the straw on the ground, so it was all at his disposal. It was a pity, but the seedlings would be sacrificed for the sake of the greenhouses. With the roar of the bulldozers, the people of Qingshan Village began to mingle and talk, and the topic was naturally all about Yang Guang. And in the crowd, a man¡¯s face had no expression, but fury burned in his eyes. Chapter 39 - Ganoderma Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio This piece of land was long and narrow. One side was south of Qingshan Village, while the other side was at the foot of the mountain, and, straight ahead, there was another mountainous area. After the machinery had cut down the straw, Xu Ling walked toward the foot of the mountain. While she was walking, she was mumbling something under her breath. Yang Guang saw this and said, ¡°Xu Ling, what are you doing?¡± ¡°I¡¯ve calculated the distance. Each greenhouse should have at least ten meters of space in front of it,¡± Xu Ling said. Yang Guang did not speak again as he followed her forward. The two of them just walked farther and farther toward the foot of the mountain. In front of them were dense bushes and further ahead were dense trees, from the foot of the mountain all the way to the top. ¡°We need to get some protective measures here, so that the wild animals on the mountain don¡¯t come down to the greenhouses and raid the vegetables.¡± Xu Ling pointed to the foot of the mountain and said. ¡°This is indeed necessary. If possible, let¡¯s build a wall and make it high,¡± Yang Guang nodded and said. ¡°A wall takes time and costs money, so why not use barbed wire?¡± Xu Ling asked. Yang Guang thought about it, nodded his head, and said, ¡°That¡¯s a good idea.¡± While the two were discussing the field, they suddenly twitched their noses at the same time, looked at each other, and asked, ¡°What¡¯s that smell?¡± ¡°It seems to be coming from the woods!¡± Yang Guang headed for the trees. He and Xu Ling both smelled a strong aroma that didn¡¯t smell like meat or flowers. It smelled very nice, but they had never smelled it before. Xu Ling was curious and wanted to find out what was inside the forest. The two of them walked through the bushes and in front of them was a thick jungle-like area. Even though this place was very close to Qingshan Village, very few people ever came here, mainly because the forest was so dense that it was difficult to walk inside it. Therefore, people who harvested mountain products were unwilling to come, and Yang Guang had rarely come. Now, Yang Guang saw the canopy of trees clustered together overhead, blocking most of the sunlight. The forest was a bit dark, so he extended his hand as he said, ¡°Xu Ling, may I hold your hand?¡± Xu Ling was taken by surprise and was hesitant when her hand had already been grabbed by Yang Guang. When she felt the warmth of his hand, Xu Ling¡¯s heart began racing. The ambiance was too romantic in the darkness with the mysterious fragrance. However, it was too late to regret anything. She had no choice but to pretend she didn¡¯t care and followed Yang Guang deeper into the forest without saying anything. There were only the sound of rustling footsteps around. Xu Ling couldn¡¯t help but gulp. Yang Guang was a bit on edge as well, but mostly because he was holding a girl¡¯s hand for the first time, and that cool, soft feeling was really wonderful. The two young people just held hands without saying a word and walked forward. In fact, they didn¡¯t go very far when they saw a grayish-white thing in the weeds a short distance away. The uncanny aroma emanated from here. Xu Ling forgot to be nervous and looked at the thing as she asked, ¡°What is this?¡± Yang Guang did not want to let go of her hand, but was forced to. He squatted down and looked at it, then reached out and touched it before raising his head and saying to her, ¡°If I¡¯m not mistaken, this is Ganoderma!¡± Xu Ling¡¯s eyes widened, and she froze for a moment. ¡°Ganoderma has health benefits such as nourishing the liver and protecting the kidneys. It¡¯s wonderful!¡± As he had read in the record in the Method of Divine Farmer, an idea flashed in Yang Guang¡¯s mind. However, in comparison to ordinary Ganoderma, this one in front of him was a little unique, because the kind recorded in the Method of Divine Farmer was odorless. But this one was able to emit a distinctive aroma and was obviously quite special. When he saw that Xu Ling was still stupefied, Yang Guang said with a smile, ¡°Xu Ling, we¡¯re going to be in for a fortune again.¡± ¡°I can¡¯t believe that there are so many good things around Qingshan Village.¡± Xu Ling was still in amazement when she saw Yang Guang taking off his shirt and was immediately startled and said, ¡°You, what are you doing?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t want anyone to know that we found this thing, so I¡¯m going to wrap it up,¡± Yang Guang said with an innocent expression on his face. Only then did Xu Ling understand but couldn¡¯t help but roll her eyes at him and say, ¡°You scared me!¡± Yang Guang said with a smile, ¡°What did you think I was going to do?¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t assume anything.¡± Xu Ling blushed and didn¡¯t have the guts to make eye contact with him, so she turned her head in the direction they¡¯d come from and said, ¡°Many people are watching the construction at the entrance of the village, so there¡¯s no point in wrapping it up. For sure everyone will ask.¡± ¡°If they ask, they can ask. Who can do anything to me if I don¡¯t tell them?¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Anyway, I definitely want to take home the treasure I found. I don¡¯t feel comfortable leaving it in the mountain for any longer.¡± ¡°Okay then.¡± Xu Ling had no choice but to nod and then asked, ¡°Does this really have an amazing effect?¡± ¡°Of course, don¡¯t doubt it. You¡¯ll find out when we get back.¡± Yang Guang laughed and picked up the Ganoderma, which was wrapped in his clothes, leaving him bare-chested. The two then left and returned to the field in the same direction they had come from. The straw-eradication work was still continuing, and the spectators were still watching. Some had felt bored and gradually had dispersed. There were only a few people left. ¡°You can go back by yourself. I won¡¯t go with you. After shoveling the straw, I have to level the land,¡± Xu Ling said. When he saw the beads of sweat on her nose, Yang Guang nodded and said, ¡°Okay, Xu Ling, don¡¯t overwork yourself. I¡¯ll bring you back some water later.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Xu Ling nodded her head with a cheerful smile. Yang Guang carried the Ganoderma home, and, on the way, he saw a few villagers who were curious and asked a few questions, but they were all brushed off by him and he didn¡¯t tell anyone what he had found. He came home quickly, and, when he entered the door, he shouted, ¡°Xiaolian, come out!¡± ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Wu Xiaolian came out with Yaya in her arms with a nervous look on her face. ¡°Nothing. I want to show you something good!¡± Yang Guang smiled as he lifted the clothes covering the Ganoderma and gave her a look. Wu Xiaolian was a bit baffled and widened her eyes in shock as she said, ¡°What is this?¡± ¡°Ganoderma!¡± Yang Guang said as he placed the Ganoderma into a water tank. This thing was weird because, despite its weight of several dozen pounds, it didn¡¯t sink when placed in the water but floated directly on the surface. When she saw this, Wu Xiaolian was astonished and said, ¡°My goodness, where did you get this?¡± ¡°Just in the mountains to the south.¡± Yang Guang smiled at her and said, ¡°Xiaolian, from now on, just soak this in the water tank and wait until it becomes more beautiful.¡± ¡°¡­¡± Wu Xiaolian was a bit baffled and was just about to ask what he meant by that, but Yang Guang had already gone inside. Not long after, he retrieved a kettle from the kitchen and filled the water tank with water. ¡°I¡¯m going to take some water to Xu Ling. I¡¯ll talk to you again after I return.¡± After filling up the water, Yang Guang left home in a hurry. After Yang Guang returned to the construction site, Xu Ling took a sip from the water bottle, then showed a quizzical expression and said, ¡°How come this water tastes different?¡± Yang Guang said with a smile, ¡°Just tell me if it tastes nice or not!¡± Chapter 40 - Fight? Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xu Ling glanced at Yang Guang and said, ¡°This water tastes sort of refreshing.¡± ¡°That¡¯s the point!¡± Yang Guang laughed and said, ¡°This is the Ganoderma¡¯s bath water. I soaked it in the water tank.¡± ¡°Huh¡­?¡± Xu Ling¡¯s expression changed, and she was suddenly at a loss for words. Xu Ling hadn¡¯t quenched her thirst yet, but she couldn¡¯t drink it anymore as she looked at the water bottle in her hand. When he saw this, Yang Guang hurriedly said, ¡°Xu Ling, don¡¯t worry. Ganoderma is a medicinal herb similar to how deer antlers are used in wine.¡± Yang Guang saw that she was still a bit reluctant to accept it, so he continued, ¡°You can drink it with assurance because the effect on men isn¡¯t strong, but you women can drink it to nourish your skin. You¡¯re already a beautiful woman, but if you drink more of this water, you can become even more beautiful.¡± The moment she heard this, Xu Ling was immediately tempted. Which woman didn¡¯t want to become more beautiful? So after a moment of hesitation, she tilted her head and took a sip of the water. Xu Ling carefully tasted the water, and the water did not smell, but became more refreshing. Only then did Xu Ling feel at ease. ¡°Xu Ling, I made a promise to someone today to go to the county, and I might not return tonight, so you and my sister-in-law should be cautious at home,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°What are you going to do?¡± Xu Ling asked. Yang Guang said with a bitter smile, ¡°I owe someone a debt, and today, I¡¯m going to pay it off.¡± ¡°Okay then.¡± Xu Ling nodded and didn¡¯t ask any more questions. After watching the site for a while longer, Yang Guang turned around and went home to tell Wu Xiaolian that he was going to the county. She didn¡¯t question him much, but only admonished Yang Guang not to cause any trouble outside and to return early. Yang Guang reassured her and mentioned the Ganoderma water matter to her. When Wu Xiaolian heard what he said she also was a little reluctant. However, in the end, she couldn¡¯t resist the temptation and took a few sips of the water. Her reaction wasn¡¯t as strong as Xu Ling¡¯s, and she felt that the water at home had indeed improved a lot in taste, so she didn¡¯t fret much about the rest. Later, when he saw that it was getting late, Yang Guang said good-bye to his sister-in-law and left the house. He didn¡¯t have any run-ins on the way, and, before noon, he arrived in the county. He wanted to take advantage of this time to go to the Moon Nightclub. However, when he arrived at the place, Yang Guang found that the door was closed. It wasn¡¯t open at all. He then saw a sign hanging on the door. The business hours written on it were 5:00 pm to 2:00 am. Yang Guang had no choice but to give up. Finally, he resorted to finding an internet cafe near the station to pass the time. At 3:00 pm, his phone rang. Mu Xiaowan asked in a crisp voice, ¡°Where are you?¡± ¡°I¡¯m in the county, next to the station,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Be more specific. I am outside, so how come I don¡¯t see you?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. ¡°Wait a moment. I¡¯ll be downstairs in a minute,¡± Yang Guang said and hurriedly hung up the phone to go outside. After paying, he went downstairs to the plaza outside and saw a small red sports car parked at the roadside a short distance away. He quickly walked over. Once he approached, the windows of the car were lowered and Mu Xiaowan looked at him from inside as she said, ¡°How did you know this car was mine?¡± ¡°I guessed based on your personality.¡± Yang Guang laughed, pulled open the car door, and sat down. Mu Xiaowan didn¡¯t move, but looked at him quizzically and said, ¡°What¡¯s my personality?¡± ¡°Bossy, cocky, and rather flashy,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°I didn¡¯t know that you were so accurate at reading people.¡± Mu Xiaowan was a bit taken aback. Yang Guang smiled and looked at her. He discovered that this girl was wearing a solid white T-shirt on top and a pair of denim shorts on the bottom. With two smooth toned thighs right in front of him, he couldn¡¯t help but feel a bit aroused. Mu Xiaowan seemed unaware of his gaze, but continued, ¡°What were you doing just now? You didn¡¯t do something bad, did you?¡± Yang Guang was taken aback, then he shrugged his shoulders as he said, ¡°What could I have done that was bad?¡± ¡°Coming out of that place, who knows what you¡¯ve done?¡± Mu Xiaowan pouted and glanced in the direction he had come from. Yang Guang turned around and unexpectedly caught sight of a red light box hanging on the outside wall of the building that said, ¡±Massage, temporary rest.¡± He understood what was going through Mu Xiaowan¡¯s mind, so he turned his head to glare at her and said, ¡°Don¡¯t let your imagination run wild. There¡¯s an internet cafe upstairs. I was surfing the net.¡± ¡°No explanations necessary. What you have done has nothing to do with me!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes, started the car, and left the roadside. Yang Guang was at a loss for words, but knew that the more he talked, the worse it would get, so he simply stopped talking and asked instead, ¡°Didn¡¯t I come to be your bodyguard? Where are we going now?¡± ¡°You will find out when we get there!¡± After Mu Xiaowan said that, she looked ahead and didn¡¯t speak again. Yang Guang could not ask anymore questions, so he had no choice but to look at the road in front of him. Then he discovered that the car was going all the way to the south, and it did not take long before it crossed a bridge and arrived at the foot of a mountain across the river. There was a very empty courtyard there with several cars parked inside, and it looked like a driving school. Mu Xiaowan started to press the horn as hard as she could after she drove straight into the courtyard. In a few moments, from inside a row of bungalows, seven to eight tall men immediately came out. Yang Guang was blindsided and felt like he wasn¡¯t going to be a bodyguard, but a brawler! Mu Xiaowan was obviously here to pick a fight! At this point, she had already pulled over and turned off the engine. She turned her head to look at Yang Guang and said, ¡°It¡¯s going to be time for you to show off later.¡± As she turned and got out of the car, Yang Guang had to follow. The seven to eight men who approached had the same lustful gaze fixed on Mu Xiaowan¡¯s legs as he had had and were unable to look away. Mu Xiaowan was angered by their covetous gazes and asked in a cold voice, ¡°Where is he? Tell him to come out.¡± ¡°He¡¯s not home. Miss Mu, you should have called ahead. You missed him!¡± A bald man with tattooed arms laughed. ¡°Get lost!¡± Mu Xiaowan scolded them and then said, ¡°Call him right now. I want to settle the score with him.¡± ¡°Fine, fine, but I can¡¯t guarantee he¡¯ll come back!¡± The bald man had a lecherous look on his face as he looked Mu Xiaowan up and down without any respect. As Yang Guang watched from the sidelines, he discovered that none of these guys looked like good guys, and they were all sleazy. There was no telling what they did for a living. While the bald man was on the phone, he came up to Mu Xiaowan and said, ¡°What do these people do for a living? Why do you have a problem with them?¡± ¡°Stop asking so many questions. When He Zidong comes, just help me beat him up!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. Yang Guang was at a loss for words. He was really here to be a punching bag. With no choice, he quickly said, ¡°Miss, I agreed to be your bodyguard, but I didn¡¯t agree to help you beat him up.¡± ¡°What do you mean?¡± Mu Xiaowan narrowed her eyes, turned her head to look at him, and said, ¡°You¡¯re not going to renege on the deal, are you?¡± Yang Guang forced a smile and said, ¡°The deal didn¡¯t say anything about helping beat him up.¡± ¡°Fine, you can leave then. I¡¯ll deal with them myself.¡± Mu Xiaowan changed her mind and told him to scram.. Chapter 41 - Reason Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was speechless. He looked at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°You? Can you beat so many people?¡± ¡°Forget it if I can¡¯t beat them. At worst, I¡¯ll be crippled by them since no one is there to help me!¡± Mu Xiaowan pouted and said. ¡°Uh, you don¡¯t have to say that!¡± Seeing her angry face, Yang Guang could only compromise. ¡°Then I¡¯ll help you but you have to have a legitimate reason. I won¡¯t bully people!¡± Mu Xiaowan turned to look at him with a depressed look. ¡°Have you ever seen me bully people like this?¡± ¡°Oh, that¡¯s true!¡± Yang Guang smiled and didn¡¯t say anything else. He turned around and saw that other than the bald man, the other six people were all looking at him with unfriendly expressions. He spread out his hands. ¡°Why are you looking at me? I didn¡¯t come here on my own!¡± ¡°Kid, you¡¯re very arrogant. Aren¡¯t you afraid of having your legs broken by following this little girl here alone?¡± One of the people on the opposite side asked. ¡°I¡¯m not afraid. My family is poor and I don¡¯t have the money to marry a wife. If you break my legs, you¡¯ll have to pay at least 100,000 to 200,000 yuan. Then I¡¯ll have money!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Where did this fool come from? You still dare to ask for money?¡± His words made the other party burst into laughter as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world. Yang Guang also laughed. ¡°Don¡¯t tell me you are deadbeat?¡± ¡°Not only that. They are capable of doing all kinds of disgusting things. Previously, they forced one of my classmates to almost jump off a building!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°Oh? Really?¡± Yang Guang was stunned. He turned around to look at her. ¡°What had happened?¡± ¡°He Zidong and these b*stards are all loan sharks. They feed on the juice. They tricked my classmate. He borrowed 10,000 yuan. Although he had repaid 30,000 yuan, he still hasn¡¯t paid it off!¡± Mu Xiaowan gritted her teeth and said. ¡°F*ck, vampires?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s eyes changed. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the other party. At this time, the bald man had already hung up the phone. He came over with a smile and said, ¡°Miss Mu, Mr. He will be back soon. He asked you to go to the office to have a cup of tea. He will be back in a few minutes!¡± ¡°No, I¡¯m afraid that your tea is poisonous. I shall just wait here!¡± Mu Xiaowan crossed her arms and said coldly. ¡°You¡¯re classmates after all. How can you say that? Since you¡¯re already here, why don¡¯t you go in and have a seat? Mr. He specifically told us to take good care of Miss Mu!¡± The bald man said this and turned around to wink at the people beside him. Then, the seven people fanned out and vaguely surrounded Mu Xiaowan and Yang Guang in a half-encirclement. ¡°What are you trying to do? If I don¡¯t enter, would you force me to go in?¡± Mu Xiaowan frowned and asked coldly. ¡°Mr. He said it¡¯s rare for you to take the initiative to come here. He would like to catch up with you!¡± The bald man laughed evilly, and his tone was full of lewdness. Yang Guang couldn¡¯t bear to hear it anymore, so he said coldly, ¡°Hey, you! Do you think I don¡¯t exist?¡± ¡°Yo, who are you, Kid? Don¡¯t you know who I am?¡± The bald man asked angrily. ¡°I don¡¯t care who you are!¡± Yang Guang¡¯s figure flashed, and he was already in front of him. The bald man opened his eyes wide, and before he could react, he was slapped on the face! This slap was sharp and clear, and the empty training ground actually echoed! ¡°Brother Guang!¡± The subordinates cried out in surprise and immediately surrounded the bald man. Mu Xiaowan did not expect Yang Guang to launch an attack. That was not her original intention. In her plan, she would ask Yang Guang to find one opponent among the other party to fight after seeing He Zidong and quarreling with him later. As long as he defeated the opponent, she would have the bargaining chip to negotiate! However, she did not expect that this young man would attack the seven people in front of him without any warning! Therefore, Mu Xiaowan was a little confused for a moment. She widened her eyes and said, ¡°Yang Guang, don¡¯t!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t what?!¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes at the guy who was charging at him and kicked him with his leg. Then, under Mu Xiaowan¡¯s stunned gaze, he used his incisive fists and kicks to defeat the seven people in the blink of an eye! After beating them up, he still felt that it was not enough. He came to the guy who said that he would break his legs, ¡°Kid, just now you said that you would break my legs. Now I¡¯ll give you a chance. Come on!¡± ¡°¡­¡± The other party was kicked in the stomach. He vomited stomach acid and could not speak anymore! ¡°If you don¡¯t make your move, then I will!¡± Yang Guang grinned hideously and raised his leg to kick! ¡°Bang!¡± With a muffled sound, that person¡¯s body that was lying on the ground was kicked away. He rolled seven to eight meters before stopping. Yang Guang was not stupid. He did not really break that person¡¯s leg. He was just unhappy to be called a fool just now, so he wanted to take revenge on the other party to vent his anger! After kicking that person away, he turned his head to look at the bald man and walked over. The bald man¡¯s pupils instantly contracted. He quickly got up and waved his hand. ¡°Don¡¯t, don¡¯t come over. I admit defeat!¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t cause much harm to you yet. I only slapped you once!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°No, there was another kick. It was on my butt!¡± The bald man quickly said. ¡°Oh, there were too many butts just now. I didn¡¯t see whose butt it was.¡± Yang Guang said and then asked, ¡°Brother Guang, don¡¯t you deserve my beating?¡± ¡°¡­¡± Brother Guang was a little confused by the question. He was stunned for a moment before he nodded. ¡°Yes, yes!¡± ¡°Oh, then why do you think I hit you?¡± Yang Guang continued to ask. Brother Guang replied, ¡°I shouldn¡¯t have been too arrogant. I shouldn¡¯t have been disrespectful to Miss Mu.¡± ¡°Sensible!¡± Yang Guang smiled and gave him a thumbs up. ¡°No wonder you¡¯re the leader. Your awareness is really high!¡± Brother Guang was speechless. Yang Guang turned around and saw Mu Xiaowan looking straight at him. Yang Guang stepped forward and said, ¡°I¡¯ve done most of the work. Now, we shall wait for He Zidong to come back?¡± ¡°Yes!¡± Mu Xiaowan¡¯s eyes sparkled as she looked at Yang Guang. ¡°He has a contract in his hands. If you help me get it back, my classmate¡¯s matter will be settled.¡± ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll give it a try!¡± Yang Guang nodded and continued to ask, ¡°Is the windshield money that I owe you considered settled after this matter is settled?¡± ¡°Hmm¡­¡± Mu Xiaowan placed her hands behind her back and one of her toes spun on the ground. ¡°I¡¯m afraid it¡¯s still not enough!¡± Yang Guang was stunned. He felt that she was trying to dig a hole for him, so he quickly said, ¡°Hey, you don¡¯t try to be shameless. That was what we have agreed before coming here!¡± ¡°Who¡¯s being shameless? We agreed that you would be my bodyguard, but we didn¡¯t agree for how long. You would at least need to resume your duty today,¡± Mu Xiaowan widened her eyes and said. ¡°So, I should stay with you all night?¡± Yang Guang asked back. Mu Xiaowan¡¯s face turned red and she spat at him, ¡°Bah, dream on!¡± Then she immediately said, ¡°You don¡¯t have to stay until too late. I¡¯ll let you go home before 10 o¡¯clock tonight!¡± ¡°Alright, then you have to keep your word. Otherwise, I¡¯ll turn hostile!¡± Yang Guang said. Just as they were talking, a white domineering car drove into the courtyard. Then, it slammed on the brake and stopped. When the people in the car saw the situation at the scene, they were stunned for a moment.. Then, they immediately put on reverse gear and wanted to drive away quickly! Chapter 42 - Subjugation Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang took a look and sneered, ¡°You¡¯re here and you still want to leave? No way!¡± As soon as he finished speaking, he jumped up and headed straight for the car! While Mu Xiaowan was warning him to be careful, Yang Guang had already jumped onto the car and kicked the windshield! ¡°Bang!¡± With a muffled sound, the windshield was kicked into a spider web. The driver quickly stepped on the brake and stopped. With the windshield broken, it was impossible to drive away. Therefore, the man was flustered and exasperated. He pushed open the car door and scolded, ¡°Where did this wild kid come from? How dare he act atrociously here!¡± ¡°You are He Zidong, right?¡± Yang Guang narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice. ¡°Yes, I am. Who are you?¡± He Zidong saw the sorry state of his subordinates and knew that this young man in front of him was not someone to be trifled with. However, he was used to being a person who walked unhindered. He felt that he had some influence in this county and knew more people, so he forced himself to speak calmly. However, Yang Guang did not take him seriously. He chuckled and came in front of He Zidong without saying a word. Then, he reached out and grabbed his collar, dragging him to Mu Xiaowan. ¡°Brat, how dare you treat me like this!¡± Being dragged over like a dead dog in front of a girl, He Zidong¡¯s face turned as red as a monkey¡¯s butt! When he saw Mu Xiaowan¡¯s half-smiling gaze, he was rather embarrassed, so he was completely anxious. Unfortunately, Yang Guang did not care at all. He sneered and said, ¡°He Zidong, no matter who you are or what background you have, if you can¡¯t do what I want you to do today, I will cripple you!¡± ¡°What are you trying to do?¡± When He Zidong heard that, he immediately took two steps back. ¡°It¡¯s your turn.¡± Yang Guang ignored him and turned to look at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°He Zidong, I¡¯m here for Chu Qing¡¯s contract. Take it out!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°I knew it!¡± He Zidong narrowed his eyes and then sneered, ¡°Mu Xiaowan, although your family is a little powerful, you don¡¯t have to force people like that, right?¡± ¡°How did I make things difficult for you? We are all classmates, why do you have to force Chu Qing?¡± Mu Xiaowan said angrily. ¡°There are rules in every industry. She borrowed money and signed a contract, so she should pay back the money according to the agreement. You can¡¯t stand up for her!¡± He Zidong said. ¡°Then I¡¯ll give you the money. If you dare to harass Chu Qing again, I won¡¯t let you go!¡± Mu Xiaowan said loudly. He Zidong laughed when he heard that. ¡°You¡¯re paying for her? I¡¯m not taking it!¡± ¡°What the f*ck?¡± Yang Guang looked at him, then turned to look at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°Your classmate is pretty, right?¡± ¡°Yup. Why are you asking this?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. ¡°Don¡¯t you understand? His main intention is not to get back the money. He is actually forcing your friend to give in. Don¡¯t tell me that you don¡¯t understand what is in his mind!¡± Yang Guang sneered. Mu Xiaowan was stunned. She looked at He Zidong and said, ¡°B*stard, you¡¯re not human!¡± ¡°¡­¡± He Zidong was scolded until he choked. He turned to look at Yang Guang and said, ¡°Who are you? What does it have to do with you!¡± ¡°I¡¯m Miss Mu¡¯s temporary bodyguard. Today, I¡¯m here to help her settle this matter!¡± Yang Guang said and stepped forward. ¡°B*stard, if you know what¡¯s good for you, hand over the contract immediately. Otherwise, you¡¯ll be miserable!¡± He Zidong was a local ruffian. Although Yang Guang¡¯s imposing manner made him feel a little apprehensive, he still replied indignantly, ¡°There¡¯s no contract, here is my life. If you have the ability, you can take it!¡± ¡°Tsk, I can¡¯t be bothered to take your worthless life!¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and glanced at him. Then, with lightning speed, he struck on one of the acupuncture points between He Zidong¡¯s chest and abdomen! He Zidong was stunned. Just as he was about to ask Yang Guang what he wanted to do, a numbing and itchy feeling came from his belly button! Soon, this extremely uncomfortable feeling spread throughout his entire body! He Zidong let out a miserable cry and rolled on the ground. His beautiful casual wear was immediately covered in dust. Mu Xiaowan was stunned when she saw this and she quickly asked, ¡°Yang Guang, what did you do to him?¡± ¡°Nothing. I just hit his acupoint and let him suffer a little!¡± Yang Guang smiled and turned to look at Brother Guang. ¡°Where your boss keeps all his contracts?¡± ¡°¡­¡± Brother Guang was a little dumbfounded, but when he saw He Zidong rolling on the ground in pain, he swallowed his saliva and quickly said, ¡°It¡¯s¡­ It¡¯s in the safe in the office!¡± ¡°Okay, bring me there!¡± Yang Guang reached out and picked up his strong body, preparing to go to the office. However, Brother Guang said, ¡°Bro¡­ Brother, I don¡¯t have the key, and I don¡¯t know the password too!¡± ¡°Oh, that¡¯s right!¡± Yang Guang understood and casually threw him aside. He returned to He Zidong and kicked him. This kick hit his acupuncture point and he immediately stopped moving. Yang Guang squatted down and asked him, ¡°Tell me, how do I open the safe?¡± ¡°You¡­ Who exactly are you?¡± He Zidong was shocked and scared. He was too painful that he almost bit his tongue to commit suicide! Therefore, he no longer had the arrogance from before and was completely obedient now. Yang Guang did not answer his question and directly lifted him up. ¡°I have a nickname called the Nemesis of Evil. Remember it!¡± As he said that, he dragged him into the office. Mu Xiaowan did not move as she stayed outside. When she heard Yang Guang¡¯s words, she could not help but roll her eyes. ¡°He is too cocky. The Nemesis of Evil? He¡¯s so thick-skinned!¡± However, she was still deeply shocked by Yang Guang¡¯s methods. A young man like him was able to subdue so many people in the blink of an eye. He was really amazing! Although his despicable smile was quite annoying, Mu Xiaowan had a strange feeling towards Yang Guang for no reason in her heart! Of course, as a young lady, she definitely could not say what was on her mind. Moreover, Mu Xiaowan was also a very face-saving character. She had always been a sassy young lady, so this kind of feeling naturally could not be expressed! After waiting for a while, Yang Guang walked out of the house with a smile. He handed a stack of documents to her. ¡°The contract is here. Try to look for your classmate¡¯s contract!¡± ¡°Okay, I have cash in the storage box in my car. Help me bring over 30,000 yuan!¡± Mu Xiaowan took the documents expressionlessly and said while searching. Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°No way! You¡¯re going to give him money? Including the interest?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t want Chu Qing to feel like she owes him, and I don¡¯t want He Zidong to continue harassing her!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°She is too lucky to have you as her friend!¡± Yang Guang didn¡¯t say much. He turned around and went to the car. Then, he returned with a stack of money. Seeing that he only took 10,000 yuan, Mu Xiaowan was stunned. ¡°I said 30,000 yuan. Why is there only one stack?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry. He Zidong has to thank you for repaying 100,000 yuan!¡± Yang Guang said and shouted into the office, ¡°What are you doing? Why aren¡¯t you coming out?¡± Chapter 43 - Time for Dinner Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After hearing the shout, He Zidong came out with his head lowered. Seeing his timid look, Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t be like a doormat. Come here and take the money!¡± He Zidong was stunned and looked up. When he realized that Yang Guang was really holding the money, he carefully walked over. ¡°Huh? What money?¡± ¡°We are reasonable people. Chu Qing borrowed money from you, so the principal must be returned to you!¡± Yang Guang said and handed the money to He Zidong. ¡°Take it!¡± ¡°¡­¡± He Zidong was a little confused. He thought for a moment and said, ¡°Forget it, I don¡¯t want this money!¡± ¡°How can that be?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s voice rose by an octave. ¡°Do you think we are all as shameless as you? Quickly take it!¡± He Zidong was helpless and could only take the money. Mu Xiaowan said at this time, ¡°Since I have paid off for her, I will take the contract with me. You are not allowed to bully Chu Qing in the future!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t!¡± He Zidong was too ashamed to look at her. He lowered his head and said. Seeing him like this, Mu Xiaowan¡¯s lips curled up. She couldn¡¯t help but look at Yang Guang. Unexpectedly, Yang Guang looked at He Zidong at this time. ¡°Miss Mu has finished her business with you. Now, let¡¯s talk about our business.¡± ¡°Ah? What¡¯s between us?¡± He Zidong was stunned for a moment and asked curiously. ¡°Let me tell you what it is!¡± Yang Guang looked at him seriously and said, ¡°I spent a lot of effort to help you teach your subordinates a lesson and I taught you some life principles as well. Shouldn¡¯t you pay my wages?¡± ¡°¡­¡± He Zidong was dumbfounded. When he saw Yang Guang looking straight at the 10,000 yuan in his hand, he finally understood! Although he was unwilling, he still tactfully handed it over. ¡°Alright, I only have this much with me. I¡¯ll give it to you!¡± ¡°Thank you!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and snatched the money back, stuffing it directly into his pocket. Turning around, he saw Mu Xiaowan staring at him with widened eyes. He grinned and said, ¡°Why are you in a daze? Aren¡¯t you going back?¡± Seeing that he had returned to the car, Mu Xiaowan bit her lip and asked, ¡°What kind of weirdo is this?¡± Soon, she also got in the car and drove out of the driving school. After driving for a short distance, Yang Guang asked, ¡°Miss Mu, my mission has been completed. You don¡¯t have anything else to attend to, right?¡± ¡°Didn¡¯t I say that I¡¯m not done yet? Why are you in such a hurry?¡± Mu Xiaowan glanced at him and asked unhappily. Yang Guang shrugged his shoulders. ¡°I need to catch a bus home before it gets dark!¡± ¡°Then, don¡¯t think about it. You can¡¯t go back on your word for what you¡¯ve promised, right? There¡¯s still something else I need to accomplish!¡± Mu Xiaowan added, ¡°You don¡¯t have to call me Miss Mu in the future. Just call me Wan ¡®Er!¡± ¡°Oh, is this appropriate?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°If I say it¡¯s appropriate, it¡¯s appropriate!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes, stepped on the accelerator, and drove straight to the city. It was not even six o¡¯clock in the afternoon, but it was already the evening rush hour, so the car drove for nearly half an hour before it stopped at the roadside. Seeing the place where the car was parked, Yang Guang asked in surprise, ¡°What are you doing here?¡± ¡°Eating!¡± Mu Xiaowan ignored him and directly got out of the car. Looking at the huge signboard of the restaurant, the words ¡°Shengtai Restaurant¡± were particularly eye-catching. Yang Guang silently smiled. He never thought that Mu Xiaowan would choose to eat here! However, Yang Guang also knew that it was a busy time for the restaurant, so Qi Yingxue was probably busy and he might not bump into her. After smiling, he got out of the car and followed Qi Yingxue. The two of them entered the restaurant together. At this time, the first floor was already crowded with guests. It was very lively. Seeing so many people coming to eat, Yang Guang secretly clicked his tongue. He did not expect Qi Yingxue¡¯s restaurant to be so prosperous! How much money would she earn in one day? Mu Xiaowan was walking upstairs. Seeing him standing there in a daze, she could not help but say, ¡°Hey, what are you daydreaming about?¡± ¡°I¡¯m coming!¡± Yang Guang said and quickly followed her. When they reached the second floor, it immediately became much quieter. Then, Mu Xiaowan arrived at the door of the innermost private room with ease. ¡°You go in first. I¡¯ll be right there!¡± ¡°Where are you going?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Why are you asking so many questions? Just wait for me inside!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes at him and turned around to leave. Yang Guang was speechless. He thought to himself, ¡°Why is this girl so fierce? She needs to be treated!¡± After entering the room, there was a square table and six chairs. Other than that, there was also a sofa and a coffee table by the window. Yang Guang sat on the sofa. Looking at the time, he knew that the last bus had already left. He definitely wouldn¡¯t be able to go back tonight. Thinking about where he would be staying tonight, he felt that it was best to go to the Internet cafe. He heard that it was only 10 yuan for a night. It was much more cost-effective than staying in a hotel. Although he had 10,000 yuan in his pocket, Yang Guang could not bear to spend it recklessly. If he took it back and gave it to his sister-in-law, his family would have more savings. Wouldn¡¯t that be wonderful? After waiting for half an hour and still not seeing anyone, Yang Guang could no longer sit still. He even suspected that Mu Xiaowan had tricked him and secretly ran away alone! Just as he was about to get up and go out to take a look, the door opened and two girls walked in while chatting and laughing! Both Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue were stunned when their eyes met! ¡°Sis!¡± ¡°Yang Guang?¡± The two of them shouted at the same time and immediately looked at each other and laughed! Mu Xiaowan, who was at the side, was confused. ¡°What¡¯s going on? Do you guys know each other?¡± ¡°Yes, Yang Guang is my new younger brother!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and continued, ¡°Just now, you said that you got to know a very powerful friend who is especially good at fighting. I immediately thought of Yang Guang. I didn¡¯t expect it to really be you!¡± Hearing her words, Mu Xiaowan was a little surprised. She widened her eyes and asked, ¡°Are you sure? You guys actually call each other brother and sister? Sister Xue, I¡¯ve never seen you treat anyone so well!¡± ¡°Yang Guang is not an ordinary person!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and continued, ¡°He helped me treat my illness before. He even helped me solve a problem!¡± Mu Xiaowan was even more surprised when she heard that. She looked at Yang Guang and said, ¡°I didn¡¯t know that you were so capable.¡± ¡°Of course. Who am I? I¡¯m a genius youth!¡± Yang Guang was the kind of person who would jump at any opportunity. He was immediately pleased with himself. Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes at him. ¡°Fine, fine. You¡¯re a young genius, and you¡¯re the Nemesis of Evil, right? As long as you are happy with it.¡± Even though she said that, she threw a bag to Yang Guang after she finished speaking. ¡°Here, this is the prize I just bought for you!¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Yang Guang was stunned. He took the bag and weighed it in his hand. He felt that there was a square box in the bag, so he asked, ¡°What¡¯s this?¡± ¡°Can¡¯t you just open it and see?¡± Mu Xiaowan glanced at him and pulled Qi Yingxue to sit at the table. Yang Guang took out the box and was even more surprised when he saw the words printed on it.. ¡°A cell phone?¡± Chapter 44 - Smiling Like a Flower Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was holding a high-end domestic phone that had just been released. The price of this phone was very high. He had heard of it before, but the price was too expensive. He didn¡¯t even dare to think about it. Even though he had earned hundreds of thousands later, Yang Guang felt that he couldn¡¯t bear to buy such an expensive phone. In his opinion, a phone was just a communication tool. He was not attracted to its configuration and other high-end features. In the end, when he found out that Mu Xiaowan had given him this thing, he was stunned for a moment and quickly asked, ¡°Are you serious? You¡¯re giving away such an expensive thing just like that?¡± ¡°I definitely won¡¯t give it to other people but you¡¯re qualified!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. She felt that her words might be ambiguous, so she quickly explained, ¡°Well, you have helped me solve a big problem, so I have to thank you!¡± After saying that, she rolled her eyes. ¡°Besides, seeing that you still use that broken flip-flop handphone, I really don¡¯t know what you¡¯re thinking. Aren¡¯t you afraid of being looked down upon by others?¡± Yang Guang was unconvinced and retorted, ¡°Oh, people will respect you just because you have a good phone? Then I might as well use the phone to make clothes. Wouldn¡¯t that be more face-saving?¡± ¡°Forget it. Let¡¯s talk about it after you can make it!¡± Mu Xiaowan was instantly even more annoyed when she saw him bicker. Seeing the two young men bicker, Qi Yingxue suddenly revealed a smile. Following that, she said, ¡°The two of you really look like a couple!¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Yang Guang was stunned. Meanwhile, Mu Xiaowan¡¯s face instantly turned red. She hurriedly hugged Qi Yingxue¡¯s arm and began to act coquettishly, ¡°Sister Xue, don¡¯t talk nonsense. He is not my cup of tea. He¡¯s a bad guy!¡± ¡°Sigh, you may be shy, but personal attacks are wrong, right?¡± Yang Guang was very unhappy when he heard this and immediately said. Mu Xiaowan placed her hands on her waist. Just as she was about to scold him, someone knocked on the door. A timid voice sounded, ¡°Is anyone there?¡± ¡°Come in quickly!¡± Forgetting about Yang Guang, Mu Xiaowan immediately stood up and ran to the door. As the door opened, a girl with big eyes walked in with a slightly nervous expression. When they saw her, Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue¡¯s eyes lit up! This girl was plainly dressed, just an ordinary white shirt and jeans. She had a ponytail on her head. However, looking at the restraint revealed in her big eyes and her slightly pursed lips, one could not help but exclaim she was a quiet and beautiful girl! Yang Guang¡¯s eyes were fixed on her. Fortunately, Qi Yingxue kicked him under the table before he came to his senses. Then, Qi Yingxue stood up and said with a smile, ¡°This is Chu Qing, right? I¡¯ve heard Xiaowan talk about you before!¡± ¡°Qing, this is Sister Xue, my sister from a close cousin. This is Yang Guang!¡± Mu Xiaowan held Chu Qing¡¯s hand and introduced her with a smile. Chu Qing was clearly a little nervous. Her eyes quickly swept across Qi Yingxue and greeted her as Sister Xue. As for Yang Guang, she only glanced at him but did not say anything. Looking at her red face and her ears that were a little red, Yang Guang knew that she was shy and nervous, so he did not take it seriously. He just smiled. After sitting down, Mu Xiaowan opened her mouth and told her everything that happened in the afternoon. After listening to her, Chu Qing raised her head and looked at Yang Guang. ¡°Thank you for helping me so much.¡± ¡°Sister Qing, you¡¯re welcome. This is what I should do!¡± Yang Guang smiled. In the end, Mu Xiaowan glared at him. ¡°Should you call her Sister Qing?¡± ¡°Uh, then what should I call her?¡± Yang Guang was helpless and asked with a bitter smile. ¡°Qing is my good sister. You have to call her Miss Chu!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. Yang Guang said, ¡°Oh, I can call you Wan ¡®Er, but I can¡¯t call her Sister Qing?¡± ¡°No!¡± Mu Xiaowan was suddenly annoyed. She glared at him and said, ¡°I suddenly changed my mind. You¡¯re not allowed to call me Wan ¡®Er in the future. At the very least, you have to call me Sister Wan ¡®Er!¡± Yang Guang also became stubborn. ¡°Why? Are you older than me? I¡¯m nineteen years old!¡± In the end, Mu Xiaowan immediately laughed out loud. ¡°You definitely have to call me sister. Qing and I are twenty-two years old. We just graduated from college!¡± Yang Guang was speechless. He thought to himself that it seemed like he could only be someone¡¯s younger brother throughout his life. Seeing that he was choked to the point of being unable to speak, Mu Xiaowan became even more complacent. She winked at Chu Qing and Qi Yingxue. ¡°This younger brother is not bad. He knows how to treat illnesses and his fighting skills are very good too. Looks like I¡¯ll have to dote on him in the future!¡± ¡°Uh, I¡¯m a man. Please don¡¯t treat me like a child!¡± Yang Guang straightened his back and said in a serious tone! It would have been better if he had not said anything. His statement made Qi Yingxue and Chu Qing laugh. The two of them each had their own style. When they smiled, their smiles were like flowers. Yang Guang was completely dumbfounded when he saw them! In his life, it was already a great fortune to be able to have dinner with a beautiful girl. Now that the three beautiful girls were together, Yang Guang felt that not only was he full, but he had also seriously overdone it. After joking around, Qi Yingxue looked at Chu Qing curiously. ¡°Qing, I know all about you. What happened at that time? Why did you borrow money from He Zidong?¡± Hearing this, Chu Qing¡¯s face turned red and she lowered her head in embarrassment. ¡°At that time, something happened at home and we needed 10,000 yuan to pay for medical expenses. He Zidong heard about it from somewhere and took the initiative to look for me.¡± She paused for a moment before she continued, ¡°Thinking that we were classmates in the university and I was in a hurry to use money, I didn¡¯t think too much about it and borrowed 10,000 yuan from him. Who knew that just a week later, he sent someone to look for me and said that the deadline had passed and asked me to return 15,000 yuan!¡± ¡°Vampire!¡± Hearing this, Qi Yingxue was very angry and her face immediately turned stern! ¡°He is not just a vampire. This guy clearly has evil intentions. What he wants is not money, but Sister Qing!¡± Yang Guang added. ¡°That¡¯s right. He Zidong pretended to be a decent man when he was in school, but now he has revealed his true colors. Qing, you don¡¯t even know. When he and his men saw me, their eyes were really scary!¡± Mu Xiaowan also said from the side. When he heard this, Yang Guang lowered his head and glanced at her thigh. He thought to himself, ¡°With you dressed like this, which man wouldn¡¯t stare straight at you?¡± Of course, he could only think about this in his heart. If he said it out loud, he would definitely provoke Mu Xiaowan. He still had some tricks up his sleeve. Hence, Yang Guang smiled and changed the topic. ¡°Alright, I had helped Sister Qing vent her anger. He Zidong was acting like a good grandson after that. He should have learned his lesson. Don¡¯t think about it anymore!¡± ¡°Speaking of this¡­¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes and moved closer to Chu Qing and Qi Yingxue. She lowered her voice and said a few words. After hearing that, the two ladies were stunned. Then, they raised their heads and looked at Yang Guang with a different expression! Yang Guang was instantly extremely nervous. He quickly looked at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°What did you make up about me again? Did you say something bad in front of me?¡± ¡°No, she was complimenting you!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and looked at Yang Guang as she exclaimed, ¡°You Brat, you¡¯re really a genius!¡± Chapter 45 - Drinking Competition Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Mu Xiaowan glanced at Yang Guang. ¡°What kind of person do you think I am? Do you think I like to speak ill of others?¡± ¡°Hehe, it¡¯s good that you didn¡¯t slander me. I didn¡¯t do it on purpose. I just felt that he had to be taught a lesson, or else I wouldn¡¯t be able to vent my anger, so I asked for the money back!¡± Yang Guang laughed. ¡°Come on, you¡¯re just greedy!¡± Mu Xiaowan looked at him and continued, ¡°And you¡¯re lecherous!¡± Yang Guang was speechless. Of course, he was unhappy after being said that, so he immediately widened his eyes. ¡°Don¡¯t spout nonsense. When did I become lecherous?¡± ¡°Hmph, you peeked at my thighs at least ten times today. Dare you say that you¡¯re not lecherous?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked angrily. Yang Guang¡¯s face turned red instantly. He had always been a man of his words, but this time, he was speechless and directly became mute! Seeing his uneasiness, Qi Yingxue burst into laughter and hurriedly said, ¡°Alright, can you guys stop fooling around? Wan ¡®Er, you too, your clothes are too short. People just can¡¯t stop looking at you!¡± With that said, Yang Guang was relieved from his predicament. Hence, he looked at Qi Yingxue gratefully. Mu Xiaowan also knew that her joke was a little over the top, so she made a face at Yang Guang. ¡°Alright, alright. Since Sister Xue has already said so, then I won¡¯t say anything about you!¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes. ¡°So, I still have to thank you?¡± Mu Xiaowan ignored him and turned to look at Qi Yingxue. ¡°Sis, I¡¯m happy today. I want to drink!¡± ¡°Err¡­¡± Qi Yingxue was stunned for a moment, but she still smiled and said, ¡°Alright, since it¡¯s rare for us to gather together, let¡¯s have some drink!¡± Yang Guang and Chu Qing were both stunned when she agreed. Chu Qing did not want to drink. Although she felt relieved, she still felt that she owed them a huge favor and it was inappropriate to drink at a time like this. As for Yang Guang, he had never drunk before. He did not have any confidence in his alcohol tolerance! Mu Xiaowan was his enemy. What if she deliberately got him drunk? Although a man had nothing to be afraid of, drinking too much was always embarrassing. He did not want to lose his face before Qi Yingxue! However, it was useless for him to object. Just as he raised the issue of not wanting to drink, Mu Xiaowan glared at him! The waiter quickly brought over a bottle of white wine. When she saw the label on the bottle, Mu Xiaowan smiled happily and said, ¡°Sister Xue, you are so generous. This bottle of wine costs more than two thousand, right?¡± ¡°As long as you¡¯re happy. Why do you care about the price?¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and reached out to unscrew the bottle cap. She poured four glasses of wine and there was still a little left in the bottle. Therefore, she smiled and said, ¡°Although it¡¯s with high alcohol content, it might not be enough for you. If it¡¯s not enough, I¡¯ll get another bottle!¡± When Yang Guang heard this, he was immediately dumbfounded. He clicked his tongue and said, ¡°Sis, your alcohol tolerance is so good?¡± ¡°I¡¯m an average drinker. It¡¯s mainly Xiaowan!¡± Qi Yingxue said with a smile. Mu Xiaowan did not stand on ceremony. She nodded and said, ¡°I tasted white wine when I was three years old. I drank beer when I was five years old. Later on, when I grew up, I often drink with my father!¡± At this point, she looked at Yang Guang and said, ¡°How is it? Are you afraid? It¡¯s still not too late to surrender and admit defeat!¡± ¡°Tsk, I¡¯m not afraid!¡± It would have been better if Mu Xiaowan had not said it, but her words had aroused Yang Guang¡¯s competitive spirit. He thought to himself that even though he had never tested his alcohol tolerance, he still had the energy of the Method of Divine Farmer in his body after all, so why should he be afraid of a little girl like her? Therefore, he raised his wine glass and said, ¡°If you¡¯re not convinced, let¡¯s have a competition today. Whoever gets drunk shall admit defeat!¡± ¡°Am I afraid of you?¡± Mu Xiaowan said this and directly raised her head and drank up the wine in the glass in one gulp! Yang Guang and Chu Qing were dumbfounded. That glass was two ounces of wine, not water! After drinking it, Mu Xiaowan¡¯s face flushed red. Then, she smacked her lips and looked at Yang Guang. ¡°Are you convinced?¡± ¡°The one who is convinced is a puppy!¡± Yang Guang¡¯s eyes widened. Secretly, he gritted his teeth and picked up the glass and gulped it down! In the end, a firing sensation went straight from his throat to his stomach. Not only was it burning until he felt a pain, but the taste of alcohol was also very pungent. Even his tongue was burning! Therefore, after drinking it, Yang Guang coughed hard, and tears flowed out. When Mu Xiaowan saw this scene, she immediately smacked the table with joy. ¡°Haha, it¡¯s obvious that you haven¡¯t drunk much wine. How dare you compete with me? You can sleep under the table later!¡± ¡°Bah, I won¡¯t!¡± Yang Guang glared at her and secretly activated the Method of Divine Farmer! With a flash in his eyes, the feeling of dizziness disappeared instantly, and his expression immediately returned to normal. ¡°Eh? You are doing quite well.¡± Mu Xiaowan raised her eyebrows, picked up the wine bottle, and shook it before pouring the remaining wine into Yang Guang¡¯s glass. A bottle of wine could be poured into five glasses. When this glass was filled to the brim, Mu Xiaowan turned around and shouted, ¡°Waiter, give me another bottle!¡± ¡°Let¡¯s have two bottles. Looking at the way you¡¯re drinking, I don¡¯t think one bottle is enough!¡± Qi Yingxue laughed. Yang Guang looked at her. ¡°Sis, this wine is too expensive. Let¡¯s not waste it, okay?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t pretend to feel sorry. It¡¯s not your money!¡± Mu Xiaowan said, ¡°I¡¯ll pay for this meal. I won¡¯t take advantage of Sister Xue. What are you worried about?¡± ¡°Oh, if you say so, then I won¡¯t be polite!¡± Yang Guang sat up straight and put on a face that was ready to face death. Mu Xiaowan chuckled. ¡°You don¡¯t have to. I¡¯ll make you crawl under the table and beg for mercy later!¡± Even though she said so, she had already drunk a glass of 52-proof white wine. At this moment, her face was red and she looked very cute. At the same time, it also made people feel like she was already drunk. Yang Guang sneered. He thought to himself, if she drank another glass, she would definitely lie on the table! Therefore, after Mu Xiaowan poured a glass of wine, he took the lead to pick up the glass. ¡°It¡¯s not certain who will beg for mercy from whom!¡± After saying that, he raised his head and drank the wine in one gulp! Mu Xiaowan refused to admit defeat and also drank it all! Seeing the two of them fighting, Qi Yingxue shook her head helplessly. She picked up the glass and said to Chu Qing beside her, ¡°Qing, let¡¯s not learn from them. Drink slowly.¡± ¡°Oh¡­¡± Chu Qing was a little embarrassed. Seeing that Qi Yingxue had taken a small sip, she could only raise her glass and take a sip. Once the wine went into her stomach, her face flushed red. Her appearance that was originally tender and lovable became even more tempting. Qi Yingxue sighed in her heart, ¡°What a beautiful young lady with such a quiet personality. It is really rare! Yang Guang could no longer care about the beauty. Now, he only wanted to compete with Mu Xiaowan. So, after drinking a glass of wine, he immediately poured himself another glass. Mu Xiaowan drank two glasses of wine in a row. There was no food in her stomach, so she quickly felt a little dizzy. However, she had a stubborn temper and refused to admit defeat. So, she endured the dizziness and looked at Yang Guang. ¡°Do you dare to drink another glass?¡± ¡°Enough!¡± Seeing this, Qi Yingxue hurriedly stopped her.. ¡°If you continue to drink like this, we won¡¯t even need the waitress to serve the dishes!¡± Chapter 46 - Stayed in a Hotel Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Upon hearing Qi Yingxue¡¯s words, Yang Guang quickly took advantage of the situation and said, ¡°Alright, alright. Let¡¯s stop the drinking and eat something first!¡± Seeing that Mu Xiaowan was glaring at him, he quickly added, ¡°I¡¯m not afraid of you. I¡¯ll drink later!¡± ¡°Who¡¯s afraid?¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes and reached into her pocket. She took out a card and threw it to him. ¡°To prevent me from forgetting when I¡¯m drunk later, take this. I booked you a hotel room just now!¡± Yang Guang was stunned. He didn¡¯t expect Mu Xiaowen to be so meticulous. Not only did she buy him a cell phone, but she even arranged his lodging for the night! Yang Guang was moved. He put away the card and thanked her. Then he continued, ¡°In that case, I won¡¯t compete with you in drinking. Let¡¯s have a good meal and chat!¡± ¡°You admit defeat?¡± Mu Xiaowan¡¯s eyes were hazy as she asked in puzzlement. Yang Guang smiled bitterly. ¡°Yes, I admit defeat!¡± ¡°So obedient!¡± Mu Xiaowan beamed as she chuckled. Yang Guang was speechless. He rolled his eyes and shook his head helplessly. After that, the two of them did not compete in drinking. After the dishes were served, they began to enjoy the meal and chat. Qi Yingxue was most concerned about Yang Guang¡¯s career. When she learned that the greenhouse was already in operation and that the planting of Tianma was about to start too, she nodded reassuringly. ¡°Okay, when your vegetables grow out, I will definitely go to the village to take a look!¡± ¡°Sister, have you been to their village?¡± Although she had drunk two glasses of wine, Mu Xiaowan was still very meticulous, so she immediately asked. ¡°Yes, do you still remember Xu Ling? She works as a secretary in Yang Guang¡¯s village!¡± Qi Yingxue said. Mu Xiaowan was stunned. ¡°Is that so? Then I¡¯ll have to find time to go and take a look!¡± After saying that, she looked at Yang Guang as if she was provoking him. ¡°Are you welcoming me to your village?¡± ¡°You¡¯re not a bandit, why should I stop you from coming?¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Please come. When you reach my house, I¡¯ll treat you well with good food and drinks!¡± ¡°Alright, it¡¯s a deal!¡± Mu Xiaowan was suddenly energized as she said loudly. As time passed, the sky outside quickly darkened, and the street lamps on the street were all lit up. After drinking two bottles of white wine, although most of it was drunk by Yang Guang and Mu Xiaowan, Qi Yingxue and Chu Qing had also drunk more than one glass. Therefore, their faces were now flushed red. As for Mu Xiaowan, although she could hold her liquor, she drank too much after all. Now, her speech was a little unclear, and her face was flushed red. Even so, she still rushed to pay for the dinner. Though Qi Yingxue gave her a 40% discount, the meal still cost more than 3,000 yuan. Yang Guang¡¯s mouth twitched as he watched. Rich people were really different. They spent so much without even frowning. After paying the bill, Qi Yingxue asked Mu Xiaowan, ¡°Wan ¡®Er, how are you going to go home after drinking so much?¡± ¡°I can get a designated driver to take Qing and me home,¡± Mu Xiaowan said. Seeing that her train of thought was still clear, but she was lisping, Qi Yingxue said worriedly, ¡°Why don¡¯t you stay here and go back after you recover?¡± ¡°I¡¯m fine, really!¡± Mu Xiaowan was very stubborn. After saying that, she even walked in a straight line on the ground to prove that she was very clear-headed. Qi Yingxue had no choice but to compromise. However, after walking a few steps, Mu Xiaowan was blown by the wind. The alcohol in her body immediately kicked in, and she immediately staggered. Fortunately, Yang Guang was by her side to hold her in time. Otherwise, she would have fallen to the ground. Seeing this, Qi Yingxue sighed. ¡°This girl is too strong-willed. Will you listen to me now?¡± Mu Xiaowan felt nauseous and almost vomited! Her consciousness gradually blurred as she hurriedly tightened her grip on Yang Guang¡¯s arm. ¡°Quick, I¡¯m not going home. Take me to the hotel!¡± Her voice was very loud, causing the people who passed by to cast sidelong glances at her. Yang Guang also had an embarrassed expression as he looked at Qi Yingxue for help. ¡°Send her there. She will be scolded if she goes home like this!¡± Qi Yingxue was helpless. She went forward and wanted to lend an arm to support Mu Xiaowan. However, she was too stubborn. She hugged Yang Guang¡¯s arm and refused to let go! Yang Guang¡¯s heart was in a mess after being rubbed against by her voluptuous body! After all, he had also drunk alcohol. His throat was dry after being teased like this. In the end, he had no choice but to follow Qi Yingxue and Chu Qing. Yang Guang supported Mu Xiaowan and the four of them went to the Hautai Hotel across the street. The people who saw this scene were a little puzzled. They did not quite understand what had happened. They only saw a man and three women rushing upstairs. When they reached the room, Mu Xiaowan let go of her hand and rushed into the bathroom. Then, she retched. Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time. Then, Qi Yingxue went into the bathroom with Chu Qing. Yang Guang definitely couldn¡¯t follow them in, so he turned to look at the room¡¯s environment. This was a suite with a living room and a bedroom. It was very luxurious. ¡°This room costs at least 200 yuan for a night, right?¡± Yang Guang secretly clicked his tongue in his heart. He didn¡¯t expect to have the opportunity to stay in a hotel, and it was such a luxurious room. Under the control of the Method of Divine Farmer, the drunkenness gradually dissipated. He sat down on the sofa and then let out a comfortable sigh. After a while, Mu Xiaowan, who was in a daze, was helped out. Qi Yingxue looked at Yang Guang. ¡°She drank too much. She might throw up again later. Let her lie down for a while!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± How could Yang Guang say no? He quickly nodded. Seeing the three of them enter the bedroom, he suddenly felt a little restless. Although sharing a hotel room with a girl felt very ambiguous, he felt that it was not appropriate for him to be here! After thinking about it, Yang Guang came to the bedroom door. ¡°Well, I don¡¯t think it is appropriate for me to stay here. I¡¯ll go to the Internet cafe for a night.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t!¡± Qi Yingxue said and came out of the bedroom. ¡°If Xiaowan stays here, then I¡¯ll get you a room next door. How can you go to the Internet cafe!¡± ¡°I was planning to go there too. It¡¯s fine!¡± Yang Guang smiled. Qi Yingxue¡¯s face turned stern. ¡°No, listen to me. You stay here tonight!¡± Her pretty face flushed red. She deliberately put on a stern face and looked quite cute. Yang Guang looked at her and could only nod. ¡°Okay.¡± ¡°Qing is taking care of Xiaowan. I¡¯ll go ask if there are any rooms in the hotel!¡± After saying this, Qi Yingxue turned to leave. However, a few minutes later, she came back with a strange expression. ¡°What¡¯s wrong, Sis?¡± Yang Guang asked when he saw her expression. ¡°I don¡¯t know what¡¯s wrong. The hotel is actually full today. There are no more empty rooms!¡± Qi Yingxue said. Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°Ah? How can that be?¡± ¡°It seems like there¡¯s a unified exam. The examinees from all over have come. All the hotels in the county are full!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Uh, then what should I do? I¡¯d better go to the Internet cafe!¡± Yang Guang said.. Chapter 47 - Drank Water Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Qi Yingxue looked up at him. ¡°Stop fooling around. Or else, you may sleep on the sofa. I won¡¯t let you go to the Internet cafe!¡± ¡°Then how about you?¡± Yang Guang knew that she was doing this for his own good. He was touched and could not help but ask. Qi Yingxue was stunned. She turned around and looked at the bedroom. ¡°Let¡¯s talk about it later. After Xiaowan is a little better, I¡¯ll go home.¡± ¡°Oh, okay.¡± Yang Guang did not want her to leave, but he had no reason to stop her. He could not say it out loud, so he could only smile helplessly. Qi Yingxue entered the bedroom and came out after a few minutes. Chu Qing followed her out. ¡°Yang Guang, it¡¯s getting late. Qing should go home now. I¡¯m worried about her going home alone. Can you send her off?¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Oh, okay!¡± Yang Guang nodded and agreed without a word. Chu Qing wanted to reject him and say that she could go back alone and nothing would happen, but Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue both said no at the same time. They had to send her home! Such a beautiful girl, no matter how safe the county was, everyone would be worried about her going back alone. So in the end, Yang Guang and Chu Qing went downstairs together. Since she lived in the suburbs, Yang Guang flagged down a taxi and the two of them went in together. They did not talk on the road. When they reached their destination, Yang Guang paid the fare and accompanied Chu Qing into a residential area full of bungalows. Looking at the environment here, it felt like it was almost the same as the village, except the density of the houses was a little high. After entering the dark alley, Chu Qing said to Yang Guang, ¡°Thank you for today¡¯s matter!¡± ¡°Sister Qing, you don¡¯t have to be so polite. How many times have you said thank you? You don¡¯t have to keep thanking me!¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. ¡°If it weren¡¯t for you and Wan ¡®Er, I don¡¯t know what I would have done,¡± Chu Qing said faintly. Yang Guang was stunned. He thought to himself if it weren¡¯t for him and Mu Xiaowan, where would her fate go? Without someone to back her up, would she succumb to He Zidong¡¯s tyranny because of 30,000 yuan? Thinking of this, he felt a sudden pain in his heart. Hence, he quickly said, ¡°Sister, don¡¯t think too much. The matter has already been resolved. If anyone bullies you again in the future, give me a call. I promise to beat them up until their teeth fall out!¡± Chu Qing was amused and laughed. She then said, ¡°If only I had a younger brother like you!¡± Yang Guang also laughed. ¡°If you want a younger brother, I can be your younger brother anytime!¡± Chu Qing stopped and turned around to look at him. ¡°But you already have Sister Yingxue and Wan ¡®Er!¡± ¡°Who would complain about having too many beautiful sisters?¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°As long as you don¡¯t despise me!¡± ¡°Why would I despise you?¡± Chu Qing smiled and nodded, ¡°Alright then, I¡¯ll accept you as my younger brother!¡± Yang Guang was also very happy and quickly nodded, ¡°That¡¯s great. From now on, I¡¯ll call you Sister Qing. I can be confident and no need to be afraid of Mu Xiaowan¡¯s nagging!¡± As the two of them talked, they arrived at Chu Qing¡¯s home. She stopped and looked at Yang Guang, ¡°It¡¯s getting late. I won¡¯t invite you in. You may go back to the hotel.¡± ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll watch you enter before leaving!¡± Yang Guang nodded. The corners of Chu Qing¡¯s mouth curled up as a warm feeling welled up in her heart. She smiled and nodded before pushing the courtyard door and entering. After she closed the door, Yang Guang turned around and left. The taxi they rode was still there. After getting into the car, the driver turned around and smiled. ¡°Young Man, is that girl your girlfriend?¡± ¡°How I wish, but unfortunately, she isn¡¯t!¡± Yang Guang sighed with some melancholy. He thought to himself that he had gotten to know a lot of beautiful girls recently. Unfortunately, they were all older sisters! When the driver heard that, he started the car and said, ¡°You would need to coax girls well and spend more time with them. It¡¯s still rather easy to move their hearts. I see that you are not bad. You definitely have a chance!¡± Yang Guang was delighted when he heard that. He quickly nodded and said, ¡°Then I¡¯ll rely on your good words!¡± He took the taxi back to the hotel. Because he was happy, he even paid more money to the driver and both of them were delighted and satisfied. When he went upstairs to his room, it was quiet inside. There was no movement at all. The lights in the bedroom had been turned off. Only the living room was still lit. Yang Guang came to the side of the coffee table and saw a note. The handwriting was beautiful and it was written by Qi Yingxue. ¡°Yang Guang, rest on the sofa after you come back. It¡¯s been hard on you.¡± Seeing this, Yang Guang smiled and turned to look at the bedroom door. Then, he turned off the lights and lay down on the sofa. The sofa was soft and comfortable. Although it was already late at night, Yang Guang was not sleepy at the moment. He looked at the ceiling and recalled the series of events that had happened on that day. After an unknown amount of time, there was a click coming from the bedroom, followed by the sound of rustling footsteps. Yang Guang was stunned. Could it be that Qi Yingxue had secretly come out to look for him? On second thought, he felt that it was impossible. The relationship between them had not developed to that stage yet. It would be wishful thinking to think that way! Hence, he raised his head, wanting to see who had come out. However, when he saw who it was, it was as if Yang Guang had been electrocuted. He did not move at all! The moonlight and the lights outside the window shone on the room. It was not completely dark inside the room. One could clearly see the person¡¯s appearance and also the clothes he was wearing. And what he saw now was Mu Xiaowan who was only wearing a pair of underwear! Her upper body was naked! Yang Guang¡¯s eyes were fixed on her, and he couldn¡¯t move them away! He didn¡¯t know if Mu Xiaowan was asleep or something, but she rubbed her eyes and came out. Then, she fumbled over to the water dispenser and poured herself a glass of water. She gulped it down, but it didn¡¯t quench her thirst, so she took another glass. Yang Guang held his breath and stared with his mouth agape. He felt that his nose was a little hot, and he almost spurted out two nosebleeds! How could he have thought that he would have the chance to see Mu Xiaowan like this!! Moreover, he did not expect that this girl, who looked so thin, actually had a lot of substance in her! As he peeked at Mu Xiaowan, Yang Guang thought to himself, ¡°Please don¡¯t discover me. Otherwise, I¡¯ll be doomed for tonight. Mu Xiaowan won¡¯t kill me out of anger because I saw her upper body, right?¡± Thinking of this, he swallowed his saliva, but he couldn¡¯t bear to look away. He continued to stare at Mu Xiaowan. Mu Xiaowan drank two glasses of water before putting down the glass in satisfaction. Then, she turned around and went back to the bedroom. From the beginning to the end, she didn¡¯t even look at the sofa. When the door closed, Yang Guang let out a long sigh of relief. His worried heart was also relieved. However, the erotic scene that he saw just now was imprinted in his mind. He could not erase it for a long time! Yang Guang did not know how much time had passed before he fell asleep in a daze. Then, he felt as if he had only slept for a minute before he heard the bedroom door open again. When he opened his eyes, he realized that the sky was already bright. Qi Yingxue walked out neatly dressed and smiled at him.. ¡°You¡¯re awake? Did I wake you up?¡± Chapter 48 - Bicker Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang hurriedly sat up. ¡°No, I should have woken up.¡± Qi Yingxue walked over to look at him. ¡°Why do you still have dark circles under your eyes? Are you not used to it in a different place?¡± Yang Guang smiled bitterly. He could not say what he was thinking, so he could only nod. ¡°Yeah, I would have sleeping difficulties when it was not my bed!¡± ¡°Oh, really?¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and continued, ¡°If you¡¯re up, go wash up. I¡¯ll go and order breakfast!¡± ¡°Ah? We may eat here?¡± Yang Guang had never stayed in a hotel before and was stunned for a moment. ¡°Yes, this is a four-star hotel. There¡¯s such a service!¡± Qi Yingxue nodded and picked up the phone on the table. ¡°Okay.¡± Yang Guang didn¡¯t ask any more questions and walked into the bathroom. When he finished washing up, Mu Xiaowan also got up. Seeing this girl rubbing her eyes with the back of her hand, Yang Guang felt guilty. Fortunately, Mu Xiaowan seemed to have forgotten about what happened last night. She only took a glance at him and went to wash up. A few minutes later, when breakfast was delivered, she returned to the living room with a radiant look. After sitting down to eat, Qi Yingxue looked at Mu Xiaowan and then at Yang Guang. ¡°Why aren¡¯t you talking?¡± Yang Guang smiled embarrassedly. ¡°Oh¡­ Nothing!¡± Mu Xiaowan rubbed her hair, looking dispirited. ¡°I drank too much yesterday, and now I¡¯m still feeling a little uncomfortable!¡± ¡°You, why did you act tough?!¡± Qi Yingxue glared at her unhappily, but she still said, ¡°No, I¡¯ll get the kitchen to prepare a hangover soup for you. You can drink it at my restaurant later!¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Mu Xiaowan held her chopsticks listlessly as if she had no appetite. Yang Guang, on the other hand, was different. When he saw the exquisite plain porridge and steamed buns, he felt a little hungry! However, just as he was eating, Qi Yingxue suddenly asked, ¡°Yang Guang, when did you come back last night?¡± ¡°Around ten o¡¯clock. I came back after sending Sister Qing off!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Oh, it¡¯s been hard on you. You slept on the sofa all night!¡± Qi Yingxue said with a smile. Just as she finished speaking, she heard a clang and Mu Xiaowan¡¯s chopsticks fell onto the table. The two of them looked at her together. Qi Yingxue asked in puzzlement, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Mu Xiaowan stared at Yang Guang. ¡°You slept on the sofa last night?¡± A cold glint flashed in her eyes. Her listlessness was completely gone. Yang Guang was having a guilty conscience. When he saw her gaze, he nodded and said, ¡°Yes.¡± Mu Xiaowan narrowed her eyes. ¡°Then, were you woken up by any noises last night?¡± ¡°No¡­¡± Yang Guang had an innocent look on his face. He suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and looked at her and asked, ¡°Why? Were you snoring in your sleep?¡± ¡°Bah, you¡¯re the one who¡¯s snoring!¡± Mu Xiaowan glared at him and continued, ¡°It¡¯s for the best if you¡¯re not. If you saw something that you shouldn¡¯t have seen last night, you¡¯ll end up very miserable!¡± ¡°Oh, I slept very well. I slept until dawn and never woke up!¡± Yang Guang quickly said. Qi Yingxue watched from the side, and her gaze suddenly changed. Of course, she knew how Mu Xiaowan slept! She also knew that Yang Guang didn¡¯t sleep well last night! When the two were combined, she immediately understood something. However, in order to confirm, Qi Yingxue still looked at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°Did you get up last night?¡± Mu Xiaowan was stunned, then she quickly shook her head. ¡°No, I also slept until dawn!¡± Although she denied it, her face was red. Qi Yingxue was initially uncertain, but when she looked at Mu Xiaowan, her heart immediately brightened. Therefore, she gave Yang Guang a mischievous look. As she looked at Yang Guang, Yang Guang blushed immediately too! Fortunately, Qi Yingxue only smiled and did not expose him. After breakfast, the three of them went downstairs. After completing the check-out procedures, Mu Xiaowan, who had already recovered her energy, looked at Yang Guang. ¡°Are you going home?¡± ¡°Yes, I wanted to leave last night, but you didn¡¯t allow me!¡± Yang Guang said. Mu Xiaowan glared at him. ¡°Okay, then I¡¯ll be a good person. I¡¯ll drive you home later!¡± ¡°Better not. I¡¯m afraid that you¡¯re still drunk and both of us will end up in the ditch!¡± Yang Guang hurriedly shook his head. ¡°Screw you! My driving skills aren¡¯t that bad. Besides, I¡¯ll be fine after drinking the hangover soup later!¡± Qi Yingxue also said, ¡°That¡¯s right. It¡¯s better to let Wan ¡®Er send you. There¡¯s no bus to go back early in the morning.¡± Seeing her say this, Yang Guang could only nod. ¡°Alright.¡± He did not know that Qi Yingxue suggested that because she felt that although these two young people looked like a pair of enemies, there might be sparks between them. It would be great if she could bring them together. Qi Yingxue was also a youngster. She was more open-minded and did not care about being of equal status. She only felt that Yang Guang was a good young man. Although Mu Xiaowan had a fierce personality, she was an innocent and good girl. Therefore, she had this idea. The three of them returned to the restaurant. After drinking some hangover soup, they sat for a while before Mu Xiaowan left with Yang Guang. Sending Yang Guang home was part of it. In addition, Mu Xiaowan also wanted to go to Qingshan Village to see how his so-called career was going. On the other hand, Qi Yingxue couldn¡¯t join them because there was a private event in the restaurant on that day. Someone had reserved forty tables, so she could only go another day. After getting into the car, Yang Guang remembered about the honey fungus, so he said to Mu Xiaowan, ¡°Since you¡¯re sending me off, can we drop by at a cargo station first? I have something to bring back!¡± ¡°What is it?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked as she started the car. ¡°It¡¯s a mushroom seed for growing Tianma,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Yo, your Tianma hasn¡¯t been planted yet?¡± Mu Xiaowan chuckled when she heard that. Then, she estimated the time and said proudly, ¡°Then it¡¯s over. You¡¯re definitely going to lose the bet with me!¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I definitely won¡¯t lose!¡± ¡°Tsk, just wait and see if you don¡¯t believe me!¡± ¡°Sure!¡± The two of them continued to argue, one after the other. Neither of them was satisfied with the other until they reached the cargo station. After that, Yang Guang took a box of mushroom seeds and Mu Xiaowan drove away from the county town to Qingshan Village. While driving, she thought of a question, so she asked, ¡°By the way, Xu Ling is staying at your house, right?¡± ¡°Yes, why?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Nothing. I¡¯ve seen her before. She¡¯s a great beauty. She lives in your house every day. Have you never had any evil thoughts?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked with a faint smile. ¡°Evil thoughts? What kind of person do you take me for?¡± Yang Guang was speechless and glared at her. Mu Xiaowan chuckled. ¡°You¡¯re not a bad person, but you¡¯re very lecherous. I know this very well!¡± Now, Yang Guang was unhappy. He turned around and looked at her seriously. ¡°You¡¯re going to talk about me looking at your thighs again, right? I told you it wasn¡¯t intentional. Who told you to wear so little!¡± ¡°It¡¯s my freedom to wear less, but if you stare at it, you¡¯re a pervert!¡± Mu Xiaowan raised her neck with a provocative look on her face. Yang Guang was furious. He glared at her and said angrily, ¡°Do you think I care? You were naked last night.. I didn¡¯t even feel anything when I looked at you!¡± Chapter 49 - Made Her Cry Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Squeak!¡± The sound of an emergency brake rang out as Mu Xiaowan parked her car by the side of the road. Then, she turned her head to look at Yang Guang. She gritted her teeth and her chest heaved up and down violently. ¡°I knew you were lying! Now you admit it without duress!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Yang Guang regretted saying that, but he couldn¡¯t take back his words. At this moment, he could only brace his neck and say, ¡°So what? I¡¯ve seen it anyway. Are you going to gouge out my eyes?¡± ¡°Thanks for reminding me. Then I¡¯ll just dig out your eyes!¡± Mu Xiaowan was so angry that her body was trembling. She opened her hands and pounced on Yang Guang! Yang Guang was caught off guard and had nowhere to hide even if he wanted to. He could only reach out to push her, so he directly pressed on her chest! At the same time, Mu Xiaowan¡¯s two thumbs pressed on his eyes! ¡°Let go, or I¡¯ll dig out your eyes!¡± Mu Xiaowan was blushing as she shouted angrily. ¡°You let go first, or I¡¯ll pinch them!¡± Yang Guang did not want to give in and said loudly. He could feel that his eyeballs were being pressed down. This lady seemed to be serious. If she used a little more strength, his two eyeballs would be in danger! The two of them were in a deadlock. Mu Xiaowan felt that his pair of big hands were holding her chest. She was so angry that she wanted to gouge out his eyeballs! However, just as she exerted force, Yang Guang immediately grabbed her with both hands without showing weakness! This made Mu Xiaowan¡¯s entire body go limp and she instantly lost all her strength. In her panic, she hurriedly released her hands. ¡°Alright, alright! I¡¯ve let go. You should let go too!¡± Yang Guang was secretly enjoying himself. This feeling was really comfortable! Hence, even though Mu Xiaowan had let go, he still grabbed her again. He only let go after he had had enough of it. Their eyes met. Seeing that Mu Xiaowan¡¯s face was red, Yang Guang spread out his hands innocently. ¡°You were the one who wanted to blind me first!¡± ¡°You peeked at me last night!¡± Mu Xiaowan said while gritting her teeth. Yang Guang was helpless. ¡°You forget that I was there and didn¡¯t check it out when you came out. Are you blaming me?¡± Mu Xiaowan put her hands on her hips. ¡°Then¡­ Then you were the one who got me drunk!¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes. ¡°That was because you insisted on drinking with me!¡± ¡°You! You!¡± No matter how she said it, it was unreasonable. Mu Xiaowan was so angry that her lips trembled. In the end, she pursed her lips and cried out, ¡°Can¡¯t you be more courteous!¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Yang Guang was dumbfounded. When the girl cried, only then did he realize that he was too stubborn just now. Although he was right, she had indeed suffered a loss. It seemed like he should not have been so confrontational. Moreover, he felt like he had made a huge mistake after making her cry. Yang Guang quickly apologized, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I¡¯m sorry. It¡¯s all my fault. Can you stop crying?¡± It would have been better if he had not said anything. The more he said, the more Mu Xiaowan felt wronged. She simply leaned on the steering wheel and cried until her shoulders trembled! ¡°What should I do?¡± Yang Guang was completely dumbfounded. He looked at her and didn¡¯t know what to say, let alone how to comfort her. In the end, he was really helpless. He could only swallow his saliva. ¡°How about this? It¡¯s all my fault. I¡¯ll be responsible for you in the future!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Mu Xiaowan stopped crying and raised her head to look at him with tears in her eyes. ¡°Responsible?¡± ¡°Err¡­ If you think that you can¡¯t marry anyone, then I¡¯ll marry you!¡± Yang Guang said. Mu Xiaowan was stunned again. Then, she wiped her tears. ¡°Bah, you wish!¡± After saying that, she wiped the tears off her face and said angrily, ¡°Get out of the car!¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Yang Guang was confused. He looked at her. ¡°Why?¡± ¡°I¡¯m not sending you off. Go back yourself! Get out of the car!¡± Mu Xiaowan said angrily. ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll get out of the car then.¡± Yang Guang had no choice but to push the door open and get out. There was a limit to how thick-skinned he could be. He did not want to stay in the car. Then, he watched helplessly as Mu Xiaowan turned the car around. The accelerator hummed as she headed straight for the county town. Only when the car was out of sight did Yang Guang come back to his senses. He scratched his head and muttered to himself, ¡°Oh no, if she goes back and tells Sister Yingxue about this, won¡¯t I be in trouble?¡± Then, when he thought about the fact that he was still more than thirty kilometers away from home, he could not help but let out a sigh. At the same time, he scolded himself in his heart, ¡°I should have kept my mouth shut. Wouldn¡¯t it be fine if I didn¡¯t talk about what happened last night?¡± Lowering his head to look at his hands, Yang Guang continued to scold, ¡°And you guys, why are you pinching when you have nothing to do? You had fun, but how should I go back now?¡± Without any better solution, he could only lower his head and walk along the road dejectedly. However, after walking for a short while, the sound of a car engine behind him could be heard. Mu Xiaowan¡¯s car had returned! Seeing that the car had stopped, Yang Guang immediately beamed with joy. ¡°I say you definitely wouldn¡¯t abandon me!¡± ¡°Shut up, your bullsh*t mushroom seeds are still in the car. Hurry up and take them off!¡± Mu Xiaowan said expressionlessly. ¡°Uh¡­¡± Yang Guang¡¯s face was full of laughter, but now it suddenly became extremely embarrassing. Seeing that she didn¡¯t want to pay attention to him, Yang Guang could only sigh and go to the trunk. ¡°This box weighs a few kilograms. I¡¯ll have to carry it back to the village on foot. I don¡¯t know if I¡¯ll be able to get home tonight.¡± Mu Xiaowan didn¡¯t say anything, as if she didn¡¯t hear it. Yang Guang continued to mutter, ¡°If I don¡¯t get home by nightfall and the wolves in the mountains come out, I¡¯m finished. If I¡¯m eaten today, I¡¯ll become a dung ball tomorrow!¡± ¡°Pfft!¡± Mu Xiaowan didn¡¯t hold back and laughed out loud. Seeing her laugh, Yang Guang was immediately elated. ¡°You¡¯re smiling. Looks like you¡¯re not angry anymore, right?¡± ¡°Stop it, I¡¯ve never seen someone like you before!¡± Mu Xiaowan glared at him and forced a straight face. ¡°You¡¯re too annoying, but I don¡¯t want to just ignore you like this. Get in the car first!¡± ¡°Okay, thank you!¡± Yang Guang quickly got in the car when he heard that. However, Mu Xiaowan did not start the car. Instead, she looked into his eyes and said seriously, ¡°Let me tell you first. It¡¯s not that I¡¯m not angry anymore. On the contrary, I¡¯m very unhappy!¡± Yang Guang nodded. ¡°Oh, I know.¡± ¡°Then, you¡¯re not allowed to tell anyone about what happened between you and me. You¡¯re also not allowed to think about it secretly when you¡¯re free!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. Yang Guang quickly agreed, ¡°Okay, no problem!¡± ¡°And the third one!¡± Mu Xiaowan gritted her teeth. ¡°You took advantage of me several times. This is what you owe me. You¡¯ll have to compensate me later!¡± ¡°I agree!¡± How could Yang Guang have the right to refuse now? No matter what she said, he just had to agree! Seeing that he was so happy, Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes resentfully. Then, she started the car and continued to drive in the direction of Qingshan Village. Along the way, Yang Guang wanted to find a topic to talk to her, but when he thought of the embarrassing incident just now, he couldn¡¯t find a topic to talk about. Just like that, the car drove all the way to Qingshan Village. When they reached the village entrance and saw the sign of the clinic, Mu Xiaowan asked, ¡°Is this where you work?¡± ¡°Yes, do you want to take a look?¡± Yang Guang asked. Mu Xiaowan¡¯s eyes narrowed.. ¡°No, I¡¯m afraid you don¡¯t have good intentions!¡± Chapter 50 - Treatment Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was speechless. He sighed and said, ¡°Hey, I¡¯m really a good guy!¡± ¡°Hmph, that¡¯s what bad people say about themselves!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes and was about to drive into the village. However, at this time, someone from the village rushed over. When he saw that the clinic was closed, she stomped her feet! Yang Guang recognized that it was Li Ting from the village. He quickly stuck his head out of the car window and asked, ¡°Li Ting, are you looking for me?¡± ¡°Yang Guang, you¡¯re here! That¡¯s great!¡± Li Ting walked over quickly and said, ¡°I thought you weren¡¯t here. Hurry to my house. My son is having a stomachache!¡± ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll go now!¡± When Yang Guang heard that, he hurriedly pushed the door open and got out of the car! Seeing that, Mu Xiaowan hurriedly asked, ¡°Hey, what should I do if you leave?¡± ¡°Follow me. Li Ting¡¯s house is not far ahead!¡± Yang Guang said this and hurriedly walked into the village. Mu Xiaowan looked at his back and shook her head somewhat speechlessly. ¡°This fool, how can he walk faster than driving?¡± However, it was only a few hundred meters, so there was no need for her to be long-winded. She drove slowly and followed him. Very soon, they arrived at Li Ting¡¯s house. Yang Guang and her quickly walked into the courtyard. Mu Xiaowan thought to herself, ¡°Yesterday, Sister Yingxue said that his medical skills are very good. I have to go and see if it¡¯s true!¡± Therefore, she immediately got out of the car and followed them into the courtyard. When they entered the house, a 14-to 15-year-old boy was lying on a brick bed and rolling around! When Yang Guang saw this, he went forward and grabbed Hu Zi¡¯s pulse. Li Ting was so anxious that her forehead was sweating, but she did not dare to speak. Both of her legs were slightly trembling. Mu Xiaowan¡¯s large eyes were filled with curiosity. When she saw Yang Guang¡¯s solemn expression, she did not say anything. After a moment, Yang Guang let go of his hand. ¡°Li Ting, did Hu Zi eat a cold meal last night?¡± ¡°Yes, he went outside for the whole afternoon. He said he was hungry before I finished cooking, so he ate the leftovers from lunch.¡± Li Ting nodded. Yang Guang nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. He has acute appendicitis!¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Li Ting was dumbfounded when she heard that. She had heard that this illness required surgery! Hence, she was stunned and her lips trembled. ¡°Then¡­ then what should I do?¡± Her son¡¯s illness was more important, but at the same time, she was also very troubled because she could not afford to pay for the surgery at all! Seeing that her face had turned pale, Yang Guang hurriedly said, ¡°Li Ting, don¡¯t be anxious. Don¡¯t worry. I can cure Hu Zi without going to the hospital. It won¡¯t cost much!¡± After saying that, Yang Guang reached out and touched Hu Zi¡¯s lower abdomen. He used the energy in his body to stop the transmission of pain and alleviate his pain. Although it was acute appendicitis, it wouldn¡¯t kill him immediately. There was enough time. After stopping the pain, Yang Guang continued, ¡°I¡¯m going back to get the medicine now. I¡¯ll come back later!¡± After saying that, he turned around and left, completely ignoring Mu Xiaowan. Luckily, she was smart. She immediately followed him without hesitation. After leaving the house, he went straight to the clinic. Mu Xiaowan took two steps forward. Seeing Yang Guang frowning and walking in a hurry, she asked, ¡°Can you really cure appendicitis without surgery?¡± ¡°I¡¯m not absolutely sure, but it would be good if he can avoid the surgery. Li Ting doesn¡¯t have much money, so she can¡¯t afford so much surgery fees!¡± Yang Guang said as he walked. Mu Xiaowan responded with an ¡°Oh¡± and didn¡¯t ask any more questions. She followed him into the clinic and saw Yang Guang rummaging through the medicine cabinet. She looked around curiously. This small clinic was really too shabby! This was her first impression of this place. After gathering seven or eight kinds of Chinese medicine, Yang Guang quickly went into the back room and reminded, ¡°I want to process the medicinal herbs. Don¡¯t come in!¡± After saying that, he slammed the door shut. Mu Xiaowan was stunned. Her lips moved but she did not say anything. Through the incident just now, she had a deeper understanding of Yang Guang. That anxious look in his eyes and the thought of sharing Li Ting¡¯s worries had moved Mu Xiaowan. Therefore, she thought to herself, ¡°This fellow is not completely useless. At least, his nature is very kind.¡± After waiting for a few minutes, Yang Guang came out with a glass bottle. ¡°Let¡¯s go, hurry up!¡± After saying that, he quickly walked out of the door. Mu Xiaowan followed him. ¡°You don¡¯t need to lock the door?¡± ¡°No need. I don¡¯t need to worry about the villagers!¡± Yang Guang said without turning his head. The two of them returned to Li Ting¡¯s house one after the other. When they saw that Hu Zi was actually asleep, Mu Xiaowan was stunned! It was still so painful just a moment ago. Did it stop hurting after Yang Guang¡¯s massage? Then, she saw Yang Guang put two pills into Hu Zi¡¯s mouth and asked Li Ting to get some warm water for him to drink. Then, Yang Guang opened Hu Zi¡¯s vest and began to massage his lower abdomen. Mu Xiaowan and Li Ting did not say anything. They watched him treat Hu Zi without blinking. About ten minutes later, Yang Guang let out a long breath. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and said to Li Ting, ¡°Alright, there are still a few pills here. Take one tonight and one each tomorrow morning, noon, and evening. Hu Zi will be fine!¡± ¡°That¡¯s great. Thank you, Yang Guang. How much is this medicine?¡± Li Ting was completely relieved when she heard that. She asked with a face full of gratitude. ¡°Forget it. It¡¯s just some Chinese medicine. It¡¯s not worth much!¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. ¡°How can that be? You also bought the medicine from outside. You¡¯ve helped me so much. How can it be free?¡± Li Ting said quickly. Seeing that she insisted, Yang Guang thought for a while and said, ¡°Alright, then give me two yuan!¡± Mu Xiaowan was shocked. Li Ting quickly searched her pocket and took out two crumpled one-yuan notes and handed them to Yang Guang. After receiving the money, Yang Guang said, ¡°Li Ting, I have a guest, so I won¡¯t be staying any longer. Hu Zi is fine. When he wakes up, he should eat and drink as normal. Just don¡¯t go out and run around!¡± ¡°Okay, if he dares to go out, I¡¯ll break his legs!¡± Li Ting quickly nodded. Mu Xiaowan followed Yang Guang out the door. After the two of them got into the car, she was not in a hurry to drive. Instead, she looked at Yang Guang and said, ¡°You¡¯re amazing!¡± Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°An illness that costs at least 10,000 yuan at the hospital can be cured with just two yuan. Isn¡¯t that destroying someone¡¯s job?¡± Mu Xiaowan smiled and said. Seeing her relaxed smile, Yang Guang also smiled. ¡°I didn¡¯t think too much. I just wanted to help Li Ting save money!¡± ¡°The main thing is that you have that ability!¡± Mu Xiaowan said and started the car. ¡°Hmm, what kind of medicine is that? Why is it so magical?¡± Yang Guang chuckled. ¡°Well, it¡¯s a secret!¡± ¡°Tsk, I¡¯m too lazy to ask!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes and stepped on the accelerator. The car entered the village and arrived at the door of Yang Guang¡¯s house not long after. After entering the house, Wu Xiaolian saw that Yang Guang had brought a beautiful girl with him and she quickly went up to greet him. ¡°Who¡¯s this?¡± ¡°Sister-in-law, this is Mu Xiaowan. She drove me home!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Hello.¡± In front of Wu Xiaolian, Mu Xiaowan became a well-behaved girl. A shy smile appeared on her face. Yang Guang looked at her and was speechless.. ¡°Is this girl especially fierce to me?¡± Chapter 51 - Held Hands Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Wu Xiaolian looked at Mu Xiaowan. She had a good impression of this beautiful girl. She enjoyed looking at her. Yang Guang rolled his eyes at the side but she directly ignored him. She held Mu Xiaowan¡¯s hand and said, ¡°Xiaowan, you are really beautiful!¡± ¡°You are too. I didn¡¯t expect Yang Guang to have such a beautiful sister-in-law!¡± Mu Xiaowan said with a smile. ¡°Hey, don¡¯t drag me into your conversation as you flatter each other.¡± Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but complain. In the end, the two women turned their heads at the same time and glared at him. ¡°You keep quiet!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Yang Guang was speechless. He thought to himself that since he couldn¡¯t afford to offend Mu Xiaowan, it would be better for him to stay away from her. So, he turned around and went back to his room. After sitting for only a minute, Wu Xiaolian shouted from outside, ¡°Yang Guang, hurry up and come out. Xiaowan wants to look around the village. Why not you show her around?¡± ¡°She¡¯s not going home?¡± Yang Guang felt depressed and muttered as he walked out of the room. Seeing Mu Xiaowan smiling sweetly, he asked, ¡°Aren¡¯t you going home?¡± ¡°Yes, but it¡¯s still early. I¡¯m not in a hurry!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°Alright, then what do you want to see? I¡¯ll take you there!¡± Yang Guang saw his sister-in-law continuously winking at him, so he could only nod helplessly. ¡°Aren¡¯t you going to plant Tianma? Where are you going to plant it?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. ¡°F*ck, I almost forgot about it!¡± Yang Guang slapped his forehead and said hurriedly, ¡°Follow me!¡± After saying that, he walked away and left in a hurry. Mu Xiaowan turned around and waved at Wu Xiaolian. ¡°Sister-in-law, we¡¯re going out. I¡¯ll come back later!¡± ¡°Sure! Have fun!¡± Wu Xiaolian smiled as she watched her catch up to Yang Guang. Then, Mu Xiaowan gave him a punch. Immediately, she was even happier! Qi Yingxue was smart and capable while Xu Ling was gentle and career-minded. Now, here was the cute and lively Mu Xiaowan. Moreover, she seemed to be the closest to Yang Guang. Wu Xiaolian thought to herself that her younger sister-in-law might be this girl! How would Yang Guang know that his sister-in-law was building castles in the air? He was in a hurry to find someone to arrange the work. He came to the construction site of the vegetable greenhouse. After finding the foreman, he hurriedly told him, ¡°Uncle, I have another job for you!¡± ¡°Oh, just say it!¡± The foreman laughed. ¡°There¡¯s a cave behind the village. There¡¯s a lot of weeds and rocks outside, and there¡¯s no road. Can you find a bulldozer to clean it up? I¡¯ll pay by the hour!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Okay, let me go and take a look first!¡± The foreman didn¡¯t mind having too much work since he would be able to get more income, so he agreed immediately. Therefore, he turned around and returned to the village, and Mu Xiaowan followed them. When he reached the entrance of the cave, the foreman immediately frowned. He calculated the amount of work in his mind and said to Yang Guang, ¡°It¡¯s a little troublesome to clean this place up. It might take a day!¡± ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. The sooner the better!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Okay, then I¡¯ll go and arrange the bulldozer!¡± The foreman said and turned to leave. Mu Xiaowan looked at the pitch-black entrance of the cave and asked curiously, ¡°Are you planning to plant Tianma here?¡± ¡°Not only Tianma. I can plant other fungi too. The area inside is very big!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Can I go in and take a look?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. ¡°Of course!¡± Yang Guang was ready to show her the cave. He took out a flashlight from his pocket and walked towards it. ¡°Follow me in!¡± Mu Xiaowan followed closely from behind. The two of them entered the cave one after the other. It was rather dark inside the cave. Mu Xiaowan was a little nervous. She asked in a trembling voice, ¡°Are there any wild beasts inside?¡± ¡°There were, but now they¡¯re gone!¡± Yang Guang said and turned to look at her. ¡°If you¡¯re afraid, don¡¯t go in!¡± ¡°Who said I¡¯m afraid?¡± Mu Xiaowan was annoyed and said loudly, ¡°I¡¯m just curious. So what if there are wild beasts in the cave? I¡¯m not afraid at all!¡± ¡°Okay, you¡¯re powerful. I¡¯ll call you the Fearless in the future!¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and walked into the cave. Mu Xiaowan was also annoyed. She rolled her eyes at him and followed him quickly. The two of them only had one flashlight. She didn¡¯t want to be left behind. After walking a few steps, they gradually walked into the depths of the cave. Yang Guang said while walking, ¡°Last time I came here, I met a huge python and was almost strangled to death by that guy!¡± ¡°A huge python?¡± Mu Xiaowan was stunned and quickly asked, ¡°How big is the python?¡± ¡°Its diameter was bigger than my waist!¡± Yang Guang said and then added, ¡°And there are two red eyes on its big head, like red lanterns!¡± ¡°Stop it! Are you trying to scare me?¡± Mu Xiaowan said. As soon as she said that, the light suddenly flashed and the flashlight was extinguished! In the darkness, Mu Xiaowan lost her courage. After a scream, she threw herself into Yang Guang¡¯s arms! As Yang Guang was caught off guard, he hugged her soft and warm body tightly. He clearly felt that her chest was tightly pressed against his chest, and he was enjoying it! Then, he found that Mu Xiaowan¡¯s body was slightly trembling. He could only laugh, ¡°Don¡¯t be afraid, it¡¯s just that the flashlight is out of battery!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Mu Xiaowan was speechless. Then, she struggled out of his arms and said, ¡°You must have done it on purpose, right?¡± Her expression could not be seen in the darkness, but Yang Guang could guess that she was very angry, so he smiled and said, ¡°It really wasn¡¯t on purpose. The last time I came, I forgot to charge the flashlight when I went back. This kind of flashlight consumes a lot of battery!¡± ¡°Humph, you did it on purpose. You took advantage of me!¡± Although Mu Xiaowan was angry, there was nothing she could do. After all, she was still in the cave and the surroundings were pitch-black. She was really afraid that Yang Guang would leave her alone. Therefore, after saying that, she quickly changed her tone and asked, ¡°Then how do we get out?¡± ¡°Follow me and walk slowly!¡± After Yang Guang said that, he reached out and directly held her hand. As they were holding hands, both of their hearts trembled! While holding the soft and cool little hand, Yang Guang was secretly delighted. And as Mu Xiaowan¡¯s fingers were wrapped by his big hand, she instantly calmed down. Both of them didn¡¯t say anything. After a moment of silence, she couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°Hey, what¡¯s wrong with you? Why aren¡¯t you moving?¡± ¡°Oh, let¡¯s go!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and slowly led her out. Actually, the two of them had only gone in a few dozen meters. It was not even half the length of the cave. However, while they were walking out, Yang Guang was moving very slowly. He was reluctant to go out! He knew that once they were out, he could no longer hold her hand. Unfortunately, they soon reached the entrance of the cave. The sound of bulldozer could faintly be heard from outside. Mu Xiaowan broke free from Yang Guang¡¯s hand and walked quickly toward the entrance of the cave. At the same time, she said, ¡°It¡¯s really boring.. Your village is not fun at all!¡± Chapter 52 - A kiss Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang followed closely. ¡°Who said so? There are so many interesting places. You¡¯ve just never been there!¡± Mu Xiaowan turned to look at him. ¡°Where is it?¡± Yang Guang pointed to the west. ¡°In the mountains!¡± ¡°You just tricked me into entering the cave, and now you¡¯re trying to trick me into entering the mountains?¡± Mu Xiaowan narrowed her eyes and asked snappily. ¡°You don¡¯t know how to appreciate a good person¡¯s kindness. Besides, you were the one who wanted to go in just now. I wasn¡¯t the one who tricked you into the cave. How did it become a lie?¡± Yang Guang was speechless and continued, ¡°If you don¡¯t believe me, then forget it. There¡¯s no need to slander my character!¡± ¡°Really? Then what is fun in the mountain?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. ¡°There are medicinal herbs, wild fruits, and mushrooms. Once you go into the mountain, you won¡¯t come out empty-handed. That¡¯s a big treasure house!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Is that so?¡± Mu Xiaowan was a little tempted. She thought for a moment and said, ¡°Okay. Anyway, it¡¯s still early. Bring me into the mountain to have a look!¡± ¡°Hey, you said it yourself. Don¡¯t say that I lied to you again later, as if I always bully you!¡± Yang Guang reminded her. Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes. ¡°You¡¯re not a good guy after all, Pervert!¡± After saying that, she turned around and left, leaving Yang Guang behind with an unhappy expression. He hurriedly chased after her. ¡°Tell me clearly, what right do you have to call me a pervert!¡± ¡°Your action speaks it all, Pervert, Pervert!¡± Mu Xiaowan¡¯s footsteps did not stop as she spoke. Yang Guang was unconvinced and loudly denied it. The two of them continued to argue as they walked towards the mountain in the west. After entering the mountain, a cool feeling assaulted them. Following that, they could smell the fragrance of flowers and plants in the air. Only then did Mu Xiaowan forget the unhappiness just now. She said with a face full of surprise and joy, ¡°This is really a good place!¡± ¡°Of course. Not only is the environment good, but it was filled with abundant resources. There is a big tree on the hillside ahead. Do you see it?¡± Yang Guang pointed to the northwest and said. Mu Xiaowan widened her eyes and found that there was indeed a huge tree. It was much taller than the surrounding trees. Its treetop was like a dark green cloud, so she hurriedly asked, ¡°I see it. What tree is that?¡± ¡°Wild walnut tree. It¡¯s full of walnuts!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Oh, it¡¯s not the time to pick walnuts?¡± Mu Xiaowan couldn¡¯t help but ask. ¡°It¡¯s still a little early. The kernels are still yet to take their shape. They will be too crispy and juicy,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Then how about we go and pick some? I haven¡¯t eaten that kind of walnuts before!¡± Mu Xiaowan looked at him and asked. ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡± Yang Guang saw that she wanted to go, so he was happy to accompany her. So the two young men put aside their differences and walked toward the big tree in the distance. It looked very big from afar. When they were under the tree, Mu Xiaowan raised her head and realized that both of them would not be able to hug the thick tree trunk together. She was immediately shocked. She quickly stepped forward and touched the dried bark, she turned around and asked, ¡°How old is this tree?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know. My grandfather once said that when he was young, this tree was already this big!¡± Yang Guang said. Mu Xiaowan exclaimed, ¡°Doesn¡¯t that mean that it has already been over a hundred years?¡± She raised her head and looked at the towering tree. Among the branches and leaves that were more than ten meters high above her head, there were many emerald green walnuts hanging on it. Some of them were alone, while others grew into clusters of three to five. It looked very interesting. Therefore, Mu Xiaowan became playful. She looked at the many protruding lumps on the tree trunk and immediately wanted to climb up the tree to pick the walnuts. ¡°Be careful!¡± Yang Guang did not expect her to be so bold, so he quickly stepped forward and said. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m not that stupid. I know how to climb up the tree!¡± After Mu Xiaowan said this, she had already climbed up to more than two meters high. Yet, right after her bluffing, retribution came. She missed her step and slipped down. Her entire body fell from the tree. Amidst the exclamations, she hurriedly turned around and saw Yang Guang reaching out his hand to catch her with a terrified expression. Then, her body crashed onto Yang Guang, and the two of them fell on the grass together. After landing, Mu Xiaowan¡¯s lips touched Yang Guang¡¯s lips. Both of them trembled as if they had been electrocuted! Then, Mu Xiaowan quickly got up, her face blushed and she spat a few times. Then, she turned around and looked at Yang Guang with a sullen face. ¡°You B*stard!¡± ¡°You¡¯re blaming me again?¡± Yang Guang was speechless. He subconsciously licked his lips. ¡°You fell on me, not me kissing you!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t tell anyone about this. How unlucky I am! I hate you so much!¡± Mu Xiaowan stood up angrily and was about to leave. Yang Guang quickly pulled her back. ¡°Aren¡¯t you going to pick the walnuts?¡± ¡°No, I¡¯m not in the mood!¡± Mu Xiaowan said that she wasn¡¯t going to pick them, but she didn¡¯t take a step forward. Knowing that girls were usually bashful, Yang Guang chuckled. ¡°Alright! Alright! Sit down. I¡¯ll go up and pick a few for you to taste!¡± After saying that, he let go of his hand and walked to the bottom of the tree. He used his hands to grab the bumps and climbed up the tree in a few steps. Seeing that his movements were as agile as a monkey, Mu Xiaowan¡¯s eyes widened. ¡°I¡¯m impressed!¡± ¡°Of course!¡± As Yang Guang climbed up the tree, he did not forget to brag for himself. ¡°I¡¯ve been climbing this tree since I was young. I don¡¯t know how many times I¡¯ve climbed this tree. I can climb it even with my eyes closed!¡± ¡°Keep bragging. Be careful not to fall and get eaten by dogs!¡± Mu Xiaowan said unhappily. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. Even if I fall, I¡¯ll just kiss you again!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and reached the bottom of the tree crown. Then, he looked down and saw Mu Xiaowan looking up at him with an annoyed look. Her face was very cute with a blush! He reached out to pick a few walnuts and threw them down. ¡°Move away, don¡¯t let them hit you!¡± ¡°Can¡¯t you say it first before throwing them? You B*stard!¡± Mu Xiaowan screamed and ran more than ten meters away. Then, the walnuts rained down and he picked more than twenty of them. ¡°Okay, okay. Since they are not ripe yet, don¡¯t pick so many. It¡¯s better to leave them until they are fully ripe!¡± Mu Xiaowan shouted from afar. ¡°So you¡¯re quite good at it!¡± Hearing her words, Yang Guang nodded. He did not pick any more walnuts and slowly climbed down from the tree. Mu Xiaowan, who was on the ground, had already gathered the walnuts together. Then, she asked eagerly, ¡°What should we do next?¡± ¡°Peel them off!¡± Yang Guang turned and looked around. He picked up two stone slabs, then pressed a few walnuts in the middle and slowly rubbed them together. As he rubbed them together, he raised his head to look at Mu Xiaowan, who was curious. ¡°Hmm, We have touched and hugged each other. I even kissed you just now. Why don¡¯t you be my girlfriend!¡± Mu Xiaowan was stunned for a moment before she glared at him. ¡°Bah, you wish. I won¡¯t agree to it!¡± ¡°Why?¡± Yang Guang asked curiously.. Chapter 53 - Delicious Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Mu Xiaowan raised her chin. ¡°My boyfriend must be handsome and rich. At the same time, the most important condition is that he must be kind!¡± ¡°Am I not kind?¡± Yang Guang said with a bitter smile. ¡°Do you think you¡¯re kind?¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes at him and said in a bad mood, ¡°Ever since I met you, I¡¯ve been very unlucky!¡± ¡°It¡¯s not that you¡¯re unlucky, it¡¯s that we¡¯re destined. That¡¯s why you¡¯ve been experiencing intimate encounters!¡± Yang Guang said seriously as he rubbed his walnuts. Mu Xiaowan looked at him and suddenly gritted her teeth. ¡°If you keep talking like that, I¡¯ll slap you to death!¡± ¡°I¡¯m not a fly!¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes at her. Seeing that the beauty was about to explode, he quickly smiled and said, ¡°Alright! Alright! I would stop. We¡¯ve known each other for so long, why are you always angry? You¡¯re not cute anymore!¡± Mu Xiaowan was stunned when she heard this, and half of her anger was instantly extinguished. Then, she put away her anger and said helplessly, ¡°Please, I¡¯ve known you for less than two days. Please don¡¯t act like you know me!¡± ¡°But I feel like I¡¯ve known you for a long time. It¡¯s like I¡¯ve dreamed of you before!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Stop it. Your pickup skills are too bad. No girl would believe such words!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes. Then, she saw that Yang Guang had already rubbed out several walnuts the size of ping-pong balls. She quickly took and pinched them. Even though her face was flushed red, she still couldn¡¯t crack one open. Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but laugh. ¡°Idiot, can¡¯t you just smash it with a stone?¡± Mu Xiaowan ignored the fact that he said she was an idiot. She asked with a puzzled look, ¡°That¡¯s not right. When I ate walnuts in the past, they were all crushed with just a pinch!¡± ¡°That¡¯s a processed plant variety. This wild one is very hard!¡± Yang Guang expressed his regret at her common sense. He turned around and took a stone. He placed the walnut on the stone slab and smashed it twice. The kernel of this wild walnut was actually not big, so when she saw the tender white kernel inside, Mu Xiaowan was immediately disappointed! ¡°What? This is too small. It can actually be eaten?¡± Yang Guang looked at her. ¡°Not only can it be eaten, but it also tastes very good. If you don¡¯t believe me, you¡¯ll know after you try it!¡± He took out the newly formed kernel that had not reached the ripening stage and handed it to Mu Xiaowan. Mu Xiaowan took it in her hand and looked at the crystal clear walnut. She seemed to have smelled a refreshing fragrance from the tip of her nose. She could not resist and directly put it into her mouth. Then, she chewed it and her eyes widened. ¡°My goodness, it¡¯s so sweet!¡± ¡°Of course. After it¡¯s fully ripe, you can keep it for winter. By then, the walnuts will have solidified and dried. They will taste like candied fruit!¡± Yang Guang said proudly. ¡°Quick, open a few more for me. The taste is very special. The fragrance of the walnuts is very strong!¡± Mu Xiaowan said quickly. Yang Guang was naturally happy to serve the beauty. He nodded and smashed a few more walnuts. While Mu Xiaowan was eating the walnuts, he began to rub the other peels. The two of them worked together happily. However, after eating five or six walnuts, Mu Xiaowan suddenly said, ¡°That¡¯s enough. Keep the rest. Go back and give them to Yaya!¡± ¡°Yo, you still miss her?¡± Yang Guang looked at her in surprise. Mu Xiaowan pouted. ¡°What¡¯s wrong with that? The little girl is fat and chubby. She¡¯s too cute. Can¡¯t you leave some delicious food for her?¡± ¡°It¡¯s not that I can¡¯t, but I didn¡¯t expect you to be so caring!¡± Yang Guang smiled, stood up and said, ¡°Unfortunately, I didn¡¯t bring my basket with me, so I can only use my clothes to wrap the walnuts!¡± After saying that, he didn¡¯t even look at Mu Xiaowan, and directly took off his jacket. Only a vest was left inside, and the muscles on his shoulders, neck, and back were exposed. Yang Guang lowered his head to pick up the walnuts, completely unaware that Mu Xiaowan¡¯s eyes were already straight, and she even secretly swallowed her saliva! After tidying up, he turned around. ¡°Have you had enough fun? Can we go home now?¡± ¡°It¡¯s still too early!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes and looked at the surrounding mountains and trees. ¡°There¡¯s only walnuts in the mountains. Nothing else is delicious?¡± ¡°How is that possible?¡± Yang Guang shrugged. ¡°There are a lot of delicious things in the mountains!¡± ¡°Really? Then I want to see if you¡¯re bragging or not!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°Those who brag are puppies!¡± Yang Guang glared at her and threw the walnuts that were wrapped in his jacket to her. ¡°Follow me into the forest. I¡¯ll show you what it means to be rich in natural resources!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Mu Xiaowan¡¯s trick succeeded. She immediately laughed and stood up. Then, the two of them walked deeper into the mountains and entered a relatively dense primitive forest. The crowns of the tree above them blotted out the sky and the sun, so not even weeds grew under the tree. There were thick fallen leaves everywhere. The surroundings were silent. Only the rustling footsteps of the two of them could be heard. After walking for a while, Yang Guang suddenly turned his head, he looked straight at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°You¡¯re really bold. You actually dared to follow me into such a deep forest. Aren¡¯t you afraid that I¡¯ll take advantage of the fact that there¡¯s no one around and do something to you?¡± ¡°¡­¡± Mu Xiaowan stopped in her tracks. Panic could be seen in her eyes, then, she forced herself to raise her chin. ¡°Bah, I don¡¯t believe that you dare to do that. Sister Yingxue knows that I followed you into the mountain. Even if you harmed me, she would look for you and interrogate you!¡± ¡°Uh, you believe what I said?¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and immediately turned around to continue walking forward. ¡°How boring!¡± ¡°Who asked you to make such a joke!¡± Mu Xiaowan glared at his back and was dumbfounded. After walking for a short distance, Yang Guang squatted down and groped for a while among the fallen leaves. Then, he used his fingers to dig. Mu Xiaowan walked over and asked curiously, ¡°What are you digging for? Bamboo shoots?¡± ¡°Sister, where could you find bamboo here?¡± Yang Guang was speechless. He raised his head and looked at her. Then he said in a bad mood, ¡°I found pine mushrooms!¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Mu Xiaowan¡¯s eyes widened. Of course, she knew what pine mushrooms were. They were rare and precious fungi. They were very expensive! She squatted down and watched Yang Guang carefully dig. Mu Xiaowan swallowed her saliva. ¡°Is it really pine mushrooms?¡± ¡°You¡¯ll know when it¡¯s dug out later!¡± Yang Guang lowered his head. After some time, he chuckled. ¡°Don¡¯t be shy later!¡± ¡°Shy about what?¡± Mu Xiaowan was confused. She didn¡¯t understand what the joke was. Carefully separating the soil, he found the root of the pine mushroom bit by bit. Then, Yang Guang exerted some force, and the entire pine mushroom was dug out. Holding it in his palm, he handed it to Mu Xiaowan. ¡°You must have seen the mushroom before, right? Take a look.¡± ¡°Sure enough!¡± Mu Xiaowan took it, her face was full of surprise. However, when she touched the pine mushroom, she found that Yang Guang was laughing evilly. After being stunned for a moment, she looked at the long dark red mushroom in her hand.. Mu Xiaowan immediately came to a realization, and her face instantly turned red! Chapter 54 - I Was Wrong Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Feeling ashamed and angry, Mu Xiaowan raised the pine mushroom and smashed it. ¡°B*stard, Scoundrel!¡± Without any warning, Yang Guang was hit, and the pine mushroom was instantly smashed into pieces! However, before Mu Xiaowan could vent her anger, her face was so red that it looked like it was about to drip blood. She actually pounced on Yang Guang and used her hands and feet to launch a flurry of attacks! Yang Guang dodged as he defended himself. ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you? What are you thinking about? I didn¡¯t say anything!¡± ¡°B*stard, you¡¯re still pretending!¡± The more Mu Xiaowan thought about it, the angrier she got. She couldn¡¯t care less that it was least appropriate for a lady to do that to a man, she directly rode on Yang Guang¡¯s waist! After taking a few punches, Yang Guang laughed bitterly and looked at Mu Xiaowan who was looking down on him. ¡°Sister Wan ¡®Er, I guessed what you thought of, but it¡¯s strange. Could it be that you¡¯ve seen that thing before?¡± ¡°You!¡± Mu Xiaowan was stunned by the question and she blushed even more! No doubt, Yang Guang¡¯s question was very tricky! If she admitted that she had thought of something unsuitable for children, then it meant that she had seen it before. Then, how could she explain where she had seen it before? She was a virgin, how could she have the chance to see that thing? Seeing Yang Guang¡¯s meaningful gaze, Mu Xiaowan sneered in her anger, ¡°I¡¯ve seen it before!¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Yang Guang was surprised. Then, he said with a sense of loss, ¡°So, you¡¯ve already had a boyfriend!¡± ¡°Bah, what are you thinking about?¡± Mu Xiaowan blushed. She spat at him, ¡°My family sells medicinal herbs, now you understand?¡± Yang Guang was stunned for a moment. Then, he immediately understood! Tiger penis, dog penis¡­ Those were all medicinal herbs. Then, he chuckled. ¡°Oh, I see.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. What else do you think?¡± Mu Xiaowan narrowed her eyes. ¡°You have no good intentions. Are you using this to tease me?¡± ¡°No, no. You think of it yourself. I didn¡¯t say a single word!¡± Yang Guang quickly shook his head. ¡°Yes, you didn¡¯t say it, but you were hinting at me and leading me in that direction!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°¡­¡± Hearing her rebuttal, Yang Guang was speechless. Then, he looked up at her and said, ¡°Sister, I admit my mistake, okay? Isn¡¯t our posture a little too ambiguous?¡± ¡°What? Now, you are afraid, Little Pervert?¡± Mu Xiaowan sneered. Not only did she not get up, but she bent down to look at Yang Guang and asked provocatively, ¡°So you have a perverted heart but no guts?¡± ¡°Who said that?¡± Yang Guang glared at her. ¡°Don¡¯t try to goad me. Be careful or I¡¯ll show you something you¡¯ve never seen before!¡± He thought that this would make her blush and she would immediately get up to escape. Unexpectedly, Mu Xiaowan chuckled. ¡°Okay!¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Now, Yang Guang had nothing to say! Mu Xiaowan had grasped his weak spot, so she simply got up and let go of him. Then, she said, ¡°Okay, you can start now!¡± Yang Guang, who was lying there, was dumbfounded. It was impossible for him to take off his pants in front of a girl! Seeing Mu Xiaowan¡¯s provocative¡¯s eyes, he could only admit defeat. ¡°Okay, okay¡­ Sister Wan ¡®Er, I was wrong. It¡¯s all my fault, okay?¡± ¡°Tsk!¡± Mu Xiaowan won one round and she immediately rolled her eyes before saying, ¡°Now that you know your mistake, don¡¯t be glib-tongued with me in the future and don¡¯t think about taking advantage of me. Otherwise, you¡¯ll be in big trouble!¡± ¡°Okay, okay. I¡¯ll take your advice!¡± Yang Guang got up from the ground and saw the mud-like pine mushroom beside him. He sighed and said, ¡°It¡¯s a pity. This pine mushroom can be sold for at least a hundred yuan but now we can¡¯t even eat it!¡± ¡°Since it can be found in the mountain, you can continue digging!¡± Mu Xiaowan said with a relaxed expression. ¡°Don¡¯t you see what time it is? It¡¯s almost noon. If we don¡¯t go back now, Sister-in-law will be anxious. Moreover, it¡¯s time for Xu Ling to be home too!¡± Yang Guang said. Mu Xiaowan only came to her senses after being reminded by him. She nodded and said, ¡°Alright, then forget about the pine mushrooms. Let¡¯s go home!¡± After saying that, she turned around and walked down the hill. Looking at her graceful rearview, Yang Guang was speechless. He felt that this girl was too cunning. It would be difficult for him to conquer her! After he caught up to her, he asked as he walked, ¡°Sister Wan ¡®Er, are you going home after lunch?¡± ¡°Of course. Otherwise, are you expecting me to stay in your house?¡± Mu Xiaowan retorted in a bad mood. After what happened just now, she obviously had the upper hand, and her words were much unyielding. Yang Guang was helpless, so he could only smile sheepishly. ¡°I¡¯m just asking. If you want to stay, I don¡¯t have any objections. Anyway, you can share a room with Sister Ling.¡± ¡°No, I don¡¯t have time. Maybe next time!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°Oh? Next time?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s eyes lit up when he heard that! Then, the two of them chatted and walked out of the forest together. Just as they were about to reach the foot of the mountain, they passed by a steep slope. If they went down from here, they would reach the river valley. Then, they would follow the river valley and return to Qingshan Village. However, Mu Xiaowan, who was walking in front, slipped and fell. Then, she rolled down the slope! Yang Guang shouted, ¡°Oh no!¡± He immediately jumped up and grabbed the hem of her clothes! However, Mu Xiaowan rolled down too fast. He didn¡¯t manage to hold onto her clothes. Instead, a sizzling sound was heard and her clothes were torn apart! Seeing that her body was still sliding down, Yang Guang used all his strength and jumped up from the ground. Then, he pounced on her! He managed to grab her waist this time. Then, he quickly turned around, and hugged her in his arms! The slide was still very fast. In a moment of desperation, Yang Guang hooked his toes on a tree and the sliding finally stopped. In front of them was a dense bush with many dry and taper branches. If they rushed down and crashed into it, the consequences would be unimaginable! Both of them were breathing rapidly. For a moment, they felt like they had survived a disaster. At this moment, Mu Xiaowan flipped her hair back and looked down at Yang Guang. She rolled her eyes speechlessly. ¡°I might really owe you something in my last life!¡± ¡°Ah? What did you say?¡± Yang Guang looked like he was in a daze as he asked in puzzlement. ¡°How many times have you taken advantage of me? Why? Haven¡¯t You seen enough?¡± Mu Xiaowan bit her lips and asked in annoyance. ¡°Hehe, I didn¡¯t do it on purpose!¡± Yang Guang smiled and let go of her hand reluctantly. Mu Xiaowan got up and looked at her coat which was torn into two pieces. She turned around and looked at Yang Guang. ¡°What should I do now?¡± ¡°Actually, you look pretty in a tank top!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Screw you! I¡¯m not used to being seen in public like this. I don¡¯t care. You have to think of something!¡± Mu Xiaowan stomped her foot and said in a crisp voice.. Chapter 55 - Stayed Away from Me Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio With a stomp of her foot, her chest trembled slightly. Yang Guang¡¯s eyes were wide open! However, when he noticed Mu Xiaowan¡¯s murderous gaze, he quickly snapped back to reality and said, ¡°If you don¡¯t want to go back in a tank top, then you can only wear my clothes!¡± After saying that, he opened his jacket that was wrapped around the walnuts and threw them on the ground. He then handed the jacket to Mu Xiaowan. Seeing the walnuts on the ground, Mu Xiaowan was reluctant to throw them away. ¡°So you don¡¯t want them?¡± ¡°Well, let¡¯s use your torn clothes to wrap them up!¡± Yang Guang picked up the torn clothes on the ground. He tied the cuffs on one end of the sleeves and put the walnuts inside. ¡°That¡¯s more like it!¡± Mu Xiaowan was very satisfied and she put on Yang Guang¡¯s jacket. The two of them were about the same height, but Mu Xiaowan¡¯s figure was obviously more slender, so his jacket was still a bit too big for her. Moreover, there was a faint smell of sweat on it. She didn¡¯t find it unpleasant when she smelled it. Instead, she had a very special feeling! As for Yang Guang, while holding the dozens of walnuts, he could smell a faint fragrance! Lowering his head, he couldn¡¯t help but smell Mu Xiaowan¡¯s clothes. However, this scene happened to be seen by Mu Xiaowan and her eyes immediately widened. ¡°Pervert!¡± ¡°Eh? How can you say that?¡± Yang Guang raised his head. ¡°I just smelled a fragrance and wanted to know where it came from!¡± ¡°Hmph!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes! Yang Guang chuckled. ¡°How strange. How much perfume do you have to wear to make your clothes smell so good?¡± ¡°What do you know? It¡¯s my natural fragrance!¡± Mu Xiaowan raised her chin and said proudly. ¡°Really? Then let me smell it!¡± Yang Guang was curious and immediately came over! In the end, Mu Xiaowan was shocked and she quickly ran away! Yang Guang laughed loudly from behind, ¡°Look at how scared you are, I¡¯m just teasing you!¡± ¡°Pervert, Hooligan, stay away from me!¡± Although Mu Xiaowan stopped running, she quickened her pace and walked towards the village. Yang Guang did not chase after her. He followed behind her and the two of them walked out of the valley one after the other. At this moment, smoke was rising from the chimneys in the village. Every household was making lunch, so there was no one under the big tree at the village entrance. When they returned home, Wu Xiaolian and Xu Ling were also busy cooking. They had already cooked quite a few dishes. When she saw the two of them return, Xu Ling hurriedly came forward and said, ¡°Xiaowan, you¡¯re here!¡± ¡°Sister Ling, I only found out that you¡¯re here after Sister Yingxue told me. How is it? Have you adapted to the life here?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked with a sweet smile. The two of them had known each other, but they had only met a few times. Both of them were very glad to see each other in Qingshan Village. After seeing they were holding hands and talking, Yang Guang didn¡¯t say anything. He walked into the kitchen and said, ¡°Sister-in-law, are you preparing a big meal?¡± ¡°There are guests at home, so of course, we have to treat her well!¡± Wu Xiaolian said with a smile and then asked, ¡°How did you end up like this? Where did you go?¡± ¡°Forget it. We went to the mountain, and there was almost an accident!¡± Yang Guang shook his head and continued, ¡°I can¡¯t bring that idiot into the mountain in the future!¡± ¡°Hey, who are you calling an idiot!¡± Mu Xiaowan stood at the door and asked impatiently. ¡°Uh¡­ I¡¯m not talking about you!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and quickly interrupted, ¡°Go wash your hands and get ready to eat!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes at him and then smiled at Wu Xiaolian, ¡°Sister-in-law, you¡¯re too polite. The weather is so hot, yet you¡¯ve made so many dishes!¡± ¡°You¡¯re most welcome!¡± Wu Xiaolian smiled and realized that she was wearing Yang Guang¡¯s clothes. She was pleased! However, she did not say anything. She just smiled and said, ¡°Go wash your hands quickly. It¡¯s almost time to eat!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Mu Xiaowan nodded and then looked at Xu Ling. ¡°Sister, do you have clothes? Lend me one. Mine was torn in the mountain!¡± ¡°Sure, come in with me!¡± Xu Ling nodded and took her hand to the main house. Yang Guang put the walnuts aside and went to help Wu Xiaolian with the dishes. As the two of them worked together, Wu Xiaolian took the opportunity to ask in a low voice, ¡°Xiaowan is wearing your clothes. What happened in the mountain?¡± ¡°Nothing serious. Sister-in-law, you should stop asking!¡± Yang Guang said. Wu Xiaolian nodded but she couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°Is she going back in the afternoon?¡± Yang Guang nodded. ¡°I think so. This girl is a boss after all. She¡¯s very busy!¡± ¡°That¡¯s a pity. I wonder when she¡¯ll come again!¡± Wu Xiaolian said with some disappointment. ¡°Sister-in-law, you¡¯re thinking too much!¡± Yang Guang knew what she was thinking. He smiled and continued, ¡°Don¡¯t worry about my matters! I will take care of it.¡± After changing her clothes, Mu Xiaowan followed Xu Ling out. She was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and a pair of denim hot pants. Her round and slender thighs were white and very eye-catching. Yang Guang knew that it was not good to stare at her, but he still could not help but glance at her a few more times. Everyone sat down to eat. As expected, Mu Xiaowan said, ¡°Sister-in-law, I¡¯ve already been here for more than half a day. I¡¯ll go back after lunch!¡± ¡°Ah, aren¡¯t you going to stay for a few more days?¡± Wu Xiaolian asked. ¡°No, I have a lot of things to do in the town.¡± Mu Xiaowan shook her head and then looked at Yang Guang. ¡°Come to the county town to find me in a few days!¡± Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°Why?¡± ¡°I need your help!¡± Mu Xiaowan did not answer directly. She bit her lips and said, ¡°I¡¯ll wait for you on the 15th of this month!¡± Yang Guang thought about it. It was the 10th of this month. There were still a few days left. During this period, he would be busy with the matters of Tianma and the vegetable greenhouse at home. After that, he would have some spare time, so he nodded and agreed. Then, while everyone was eating, Yang Guang became an outsider. The three women were talking and laughing very enthusiastically. No one paid attention to him. Yang Guang did not care. His thoughts had already shifted to his work. After lunch, Mu Xiaowan sat for a while before she stood up and said goodbye. Everyone sent her to the car and watched the car leave before returning to the courtyard. ¡°Sister Ling, how¡¯s the greenhouse?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Now only you ask?¡± Xu Ling glanced at him and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. It¡¯s already under construction. If the speed is fast, the preliminary work will be completed in three to five days.¡± ¡°That¡¯s good. Thank you, Sister Ling. You¡¯re really a good helper for me!¡± Yang Guang laughed. ¡°I¡¯m not doing this to help you. It¡¯s my job to lead everyone to become rich!¡± Xu Ling added, ¡°If your vegetable planting is successful, you¡¯ll have to promote it to the entire village!¡± ¡°That¡¯s not a problem!¡± Yang Guang nodded and immediately agreed, but then he frowned. ¡°But, I¡¯m afraid that no one will be able to come up with the money to build a greenhouse!¡± ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about that. The county already has a support policy, so we can get a loan!¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°That¡¯s great!¡± Yang Guang smiled. As the two were talking, someone rushed in from outside the courtyard.. ¡°Xiaolian, Xiaolian, something bad has happened!¡± Chapter 56 - Saved Life Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Seeing that it was Wu Daming, Yang Guang frowned! Wu Daming¡¯s face was full of sweat and he was panting. It seemed that he had jogged all the way from home. ¡°Hey, what are you doing here again?¡± Yang Guang stopped Wu Daming who was about to rush into the courtyard and asked in a deep voice. ¡°I¡¯m looking for Xiaolian!¡± Wu Daming said. ¡°My sister-in-law has nothing to do with you anymore!¡± Yang Guang said coldly. At this moment, Wu Xiaolian came out from the room with Yaya in her arms. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°Xiaolian, mum is sick!¡± Wu Daming said. Wu Xiaolian was stunned, and then her eyes widened. ¡°What¡¯s wrong with her?¡± ¡°Cerebral hemorrhage.¡± ¡°Ah!¡± Wu Xiaolian¡¯s body trembled when she heard that, and her legs went weak. Although her mother did not treat her well, yet blood was thicker than water. As time passed, the hatred in her heart gradually disappeared. Therefore, when she heard that her mother was seriously ill, Wu Xiaolian became anxious. She took two steps forward and asked, ¡°Why is she suddenly ill? Where is she?¡± ¡°We are waiting for an ambulance!¡± Wu Daming said. ¡°Ah¡­¡± Wu Xiaolian was stunned. She didn¡¯t know what to do. Yang Guang said at this time, ¡°Sister-in-law, don¡¯t be nervous. Cerebral hemorrhage is not a fatal disease. As long as it¡¯s not serious, it can be cured!¡± ¡°Yang Guang, help me take a look. You can definitely treat this disease, right?¡± Wu Xiaolian asked. Seeing her red eyes and anxious expression, Yang Guang sighed. He knew that his sister-in-law was not heartless. So after hesitating for a moment, he still nodded his head. ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll go and take a look!¡± Previously, Mr. He from Shahe Village had also suffered from a brain hemorrhage. Yang Guang already had the experience of treating him, so this illness would not be a big problem for him. Therefore, after agreeing, Yang Guang said to Xu Ling, ¡°Sister Ling, I¡¯ll go to sister-in-law¡¯s house with her to take a look.¡± ¡°Okay, you guys go ahead. Don¡¯t worry about home.¡± Xu Ling nodded and then said to Wu Xiaolian, ¡°Sister-in-law, it¡¯s inconvenient for you to take care of the child. Why don¡¯t you hand Yaya to me!¡± ¡°Sure.¡± Wu Xiaolian nodded. Anyway, Yaya and Xu Ling were quite close, so she handed the child to her. With that, it would be more convenient for her to go home. Then, Yang Guang rode the bicycle with Wu Xiaolian, and the other bicycle was given to Wu Daming to ride. The three of them left the house in a hurry. Soon, they arrived at the Wu family¡¯s house and there were already many people standing in the courtyard. Although Sun Guihua was a shrew, they were from the same village after all. Therefore, when the villagers knew that she suddenly had an acute illness, they rushed over to visit her. Wu Xiaolian did not bother to greet everyone. She got off the bicycle and rushed into the house. When she saw Sun Guihua lying on the bed, her face was sallow and her eyes were tightly shut. She immediately burst into tears! Seeing this, Yang Guang could only sigh in his heart. Then, he quickly said to Wu Xiaolian, ¡°Sister-in-law, don¡¯t worry. She would be fine. Let me take a look!¡± After saying that, he came closer and grabbed Sun Guihua¡¯s wrist. There were other people in the house. At this time, the middle-aged man with a goatee said, ¡°It¡¯s useless. Her symptoms are very serious. We have to send her to the hospital for a craniotomy!¡± Yang Guang raised his head and glanced at him. He recognized this person as the village doctor, Hu Guangsheng. This old man was almost 50 years old. He had been a doctor in the village for more than 20 years, so he was quite famous. Therefore, Yang Guang smiled. ¡°It¡¯s better not to do the surgery if she can avoid it. Not only does it consume vitality, it also costs a lot of money!¡± ¡°Is money more important than life?¡± Hu Guangsheng was a little unhappy and glared at Yang Guang. Yang Guang smiled and did not speak to him anymore. He secretly channeled the energy of the Method of Divine Farmer to treat her. As time passed, Hu Guangsheng was a little puzzled as he watched, so he asked, ¡°Is it necessary for you to take so long to check her pulse?¡± ¡°I¡¯m just being cautious!¡± Yang Guang raised his head and looked at him. ¡°Dr. Hu, do you have Chinese medicine in your clinic?¡± ¡°Yes, why?¡± Hu Guangsheng asked. ¡°That¡¯s good. Help me get some angelica, fructus schisandrae, and atractylodes!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°You still want to use Chinese medicine to treat someone who¡¯s already like this? You must be joking!¡± Hu Guangsheng said. ¡°What¡¯s wrong with her? She is doing quite well. Look, isn¡¯t she awake now?¡± Yang Guang said this and let go of Sun Guihua¡¯s hand. Then, Sun Guihua opened her eyes and looked around in confusion. ¡°Mom!¡± Wu Xiaolian threw herself in front of her and cried again. Hu Guangsheng was dumbfounded. During the examination just now, he clearly found that Sun Guihua¡¯s brain was bleeding severely and she couldn¡¯t wake up. How did she suddenly get better? Just as he was puzzled, Yang Guang looked at Wu Daming. ¡°Go and get the medicine from Dr. Hu. Come back and brew the medicine as soon as you can. She will be fine after drinking it for two days!¡± Seeing that his mother had woken up and her mind was still normal, though the corners of her mouth and eyes were slightly slanted, Wu Daming heaved a sigh of relief and thought to himself that she did not need to go to the hospital anymore! Then, he quickly looked at Hu Guangsheng. ¡°Uncle Hu, let¡¯s hurry and get the medicine!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Hu Guangsheng was full of doubts and did not hear him. Wu Daming could only go up and pat him on the shoulder. ¡°Uncle Hu, let¡¯s go get the medicine!¡± ¡°Oh, okay!¡± Hu Guangsheng finally reacted. Without looking at Yang Guang, he walked out of the door. There were only three people left in the room. When Yang Guang saw his sister-in-law¡¯s face full of tears, he said with some heartache, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. She will recover after taking some medicine!¡± ¡°Okay, thank you.¡± Wu Xiaolian¡¯s eyes were full of gratitude. Yang Guang smiled bitterly and looked up at Sun Guihua. He saw that there was some guilt in her eyes when she looked at his daughter. She seemed to have suddenly realized her daughter¡¯s filial piety to her and regretted what she had done back then. However, the blood in her brain had just been cleared, and her body was still a little paralyzed. She could not speak, so she could not express her emotions. At this time, the siren of an ambulance sounded outside the courtyard, and it quickly arrived at the main entrance. Yang Guang saw that it was from the town hospital, so he stood up and said, ¡°Sister-in-law, take care of her first. I¡¯ll go and talk to them!¡± After he said that, he walked out of the door and saw a few people in white coats carrying a stretcher into the courtyard. The leader was still that Dr. Hu. When he saw Yang Guang come out of the house, Dr. Hu was stunned for a moment. He looked at him and asked, ¡°Why are you here?¡± ¡°I¡¯m here to treat the patient!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°Dr. Hu, you wasted your trip again this time. She¡¯s fine. She has already woken up!¡± ¡°What?¡± Dr. Hu¡¯s eyes widened. ¡°I was told she had a severe cerebral hemorrhage. How did she wake up?¡± ¡°Maybe it was misdiagnosed. Actually, it¡¯s not serious at all!¡± Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°If you don¡¯t believe me, you can go and take a look!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Dr. Hu was a little speechless, but at the same time, he was a little angry. He glared at him and said, ¡°No need.. Since she¡¯s fine, please pay for the ambulance!¡± Chapter 57 - Welfare Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was stunned. He looked at Dr. Hu and asked, ¡°We still need to pay?¡± ¡°What? You¡¯ve never been in an ambulance before? Since the ambulance had arrived, you need to pay for calling it.¡± Dr. Hu said snappily. Seeing him like this, Yang Guang rolled his eyes. He wondered how this person got the qualification to be a doctor. He was not considerate to the patients. All he thought about was money! However, he could not be bothered to argue at this time. He nodded and asked, ¡°How much is it?¡± ¡°Two hundred yuan!¡± Dr. Hu stretched out his hand and said loudly. Yang Guang happened to have cash in his pocket, so he took it out and handed it to him. Then, he did not want to look at this person again. He turned around and was about to return to the room. Dr. Hu left resentfully. Just as the ambulance left, Hu Guangsheng and Wu Daming returned. They brought the Chinese medicine into the house and saw that Sun Guihua had already sat up. Hu Guangsheng was dumbfounded. At this moment, Wu Daming asked, ¡°Miracle Doctor Yang, how should I give this medicine to my mother?¡± ¡°I¡¯ll split it into five portions for you. Just boil it according to this dosage!¡± Yang Guang said and took the medicine from his hand. After he was done, Wu Daming quickly went to boil the medicine. ¡°Sister-in-law, why don¡¯t you stay here and take care of your mum first? Don¡¯t worry about Yaya. Sister Ling and I will take care of her.¡± Yang Guang could see that Wu Xiaolian didn¡¯t want to leave, so he said. ¡°Okay. Then it will be hard on you and Lingling,¡± Wu Xiaolian said. Yang Guang smiled. ¡°We are a family. Why are you being so polite?¡± After he said that, he turned around and left without looking at Hu Guangsheng. Although his sister-in-law was still worrying about her mother, Yang Guang didn¡¯t want to stay in this house for too long. He still remembered that he had given them so much money for nothing! Therefore, after leaving the house, Yang Guang got on his bicycle and left. He quickly returned to his house and found that there was no one in the courtyard. The house was also very quiet. He knew that Yaya was probably sleeping, so he quietly entered the house. When he came to the door of his sister-in-law¡¯s room, he saw that the door was open, so Yang Guang stuck his head out to take a look inside. Sure enough, Xu Ling was holding Yaya in her arms. The two of them were lying on the bed and were already asleep. Yang Guang didn¡¯t want to stay too long in the room at first, but his gaze suddenly froze! He saw that though Yaya was sleeping in Xu Ling¡¯s arms, her hand was reaching into her vest! ¡°¡­¡± Yang Guang was speechless for a moment, his whole body was in a daze. After staring blankly for a while, he finally understood. Yaya must have been hungry and wanted to drink milk, but Xu Ling was still single, how could she have milk? So she must have brewed some milk powder for the child. However, Yaya had a bad habit. When Wu Xiaolian was breastfeeding Yaya in her arms, she liked to hold her chest with one hand while sucking milk! What did a one-year-old child know? Although the one who fed her the milk powder was Xu Ling, Yaya did not care about that, so she just hold her chest! When he thought about this and saw that Xu Ling¡¯s cheeks were still slightly red, Yang Guang knew how shy and embarrassed she was at that time. Fortunately, there was no one else in the house, or else she would have felt even more embarrassed. Just as Yang Guang was watching, Xu Ling, who was not in a deep sleep, felt that someone was looking at her, so she opened her eyes. When their eyes met, she was stunned for a moment and asked in a low voice, ¡°You¡¯re back?¡± ¡°Yes! She is fine now, so I came back first!¡± Yang Guang nodded. ¡°Glad to hear that!¡± Xu Ling smiled and reached out to touch Yaya¡¯s back. However, when she saw that her little hand was still in her clothes, she was stunned for a moment before her face blushed! Yang Guang knew that she would be embarrassed, so he turned around and left without saying anything. After returning to his room and sitting down, he actually felt a little envious of Yaya for no reason! After all, she was still a child, and he didn¡¯t have the chance to do that! After letting his imagination run wild for a while, he heard the sound of knocking. Then, Xu Ling asked from outside, ¡°Why didn¡¯t Sister-in-law come back?¡± ¡°Oh, she still wants to stay and take care of her mum. She would probably come back at night!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Got it,¡± Xu Ling replied and didn¡¯t say anything else. Hearing the footsteps and knowing that she was going to leave, Yang Guang quickly asked out of the blue, ¡°Sister Ling, the child is asleep. Do you want to come to my room and have a chat?¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Xu Ling was startled, then she said, ¡°No, I¡¯ll go to the construction site to take a look later. You stay and take care of the child.¡± ¡°Oh, okay.¡± Yang Guang was a little disappointed when he heard that, but he didn¡¯t know what to say. Since Xu Ling had something to do, Yang Guang was responsible for watching the child and playing with Yaya the whole afternoon. In the evening, Xu Ling came back from the greenhouse construction site. When she saw that there was still only an electric bicycle in the courtyard, she immediately asked, ¡°Sister-in-law is not back yet?¡± ¡°Yes, I guess she won¡¯t be back.¡± Yang Guang nodded. ¡°Since she wants to ease her relationship with the family, I think it¡¯s fine even if she wants to stay there tonight.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Xu Ling nodded and walked to the kitchen. As she washed her hands, she said, ¡°What do you want to eat for dinner? I¡¯ll make them for you!¡± ¡°No need, I¡¯ll do it. You¡¯ve been tired all day. Hurry up and sit down and rest for a while!¡± Yang Guang said as he put down Yaya. The child walked towards Xu Ling as if she was learning how to walk. Seeing that she was walking to her, Xu Ling had no choice but to wash her hands and carry the child. Then, she watched Yang Guang enter the kitchen. Braised noodles were prepared for dinner. The well water was used to cook the noodles. The noodles were then paired with eggplant and diced braised tofu. The taste was excellent. Xu Ling ate two big bowls and patted her stomach with a satisfied expression. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect you to be so good at cooking!¡± ¡°Of course. I¡¯m such a smart person. I¡¯m the best at everything!¡± Yang Guang smiled proudly. ¡°Boasting!¡± Xu Ling glanced at him and said, ¡°Look after the child for a while. I¡¯m going to take a shower!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Yang Guang nodded. His heart was suddenly filled with anticipation! Usually, Xu Ling would dress conservatively. During the day, she wore a half-sleeved blouse and long pants. Only at night when she took a shower would she change into a cooler outfit. After all, she was at home. There was no need for her to be as well-protected as when she was outside. Yang Guang had been waiting for this moment because he liked to look at Xu Ling¡¯s snow-white thighs and her fair and tender feet! Time passed bit by bit. When the sky gradually darkened, Xu Ling returned from the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her head and slippers on her feet. She was in a white tank top and black shorts. Coupled with her snow-white long legs, she was perfect! Yang Guang held Yaya in his arms and watched her intently. He thought to himself that if this scene was filmed, it would probably make every man drool. As if she was used to Yang Guang¡¯s gaze, Xu Ling only glared at him and then picked up Yaya who was pouncing on her. ¡°Brat, it¡¯s time to sleep. Go to bed with me!¡± As she spoke, she carried Yaya into the room. Yang Guang sighed in his heart. He knew that the welfare for that day was finally over. Hence, he got up and returned to his room. He was prepared to rest early. The night was getting darker.. Just as Yang Guang was about to fall asleep, the sound of a child crying was heard! Chapter 58 - Didnt Want to Sleep Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang immediately sat up from the bed and got out. He quickly walked to the door of his sister-in-law¡¯s room. He did not enter but asked beside the door, ¡°Sister, what¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°This child probably misses her mother. She doesn¡¯t sleep!¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Then I¡¯m coming in?¡± Yang Guang asked. Xu Ling acknowledged, ¡°Yes, come in. She might fall asleep when she sees you.¡± Yang Guang pushed the door open and entered. He saw that Xu Ling was still dressed the same. She was helplessly sitting on the bed with Yaya in her arms. When he came closer, he saw that the little girl was crying her eyes out. She looked very unhappy. Yang Guang reached out and scratched her little nose. ¡°Little Girl, you¡¯re naughty again!¡± With this teasing, she would have laughed in the past. However, no one knew what was wrong with her. Not only did she not recover, she cried even more. Therefore, Yang Guang could only reach out and take the child. He held her in his arms and slowly rock her. ¡°Don¡¯t cry anymore. Hurry up and go to sleep. Otherwise, the big bad wolf will come!¡± Xu Ling was speechless. Was he trying to coax the child to sleep? However, she did not expect Yaya¡¯s crying to actually become softer. Gradually, she stopped crying. However, when she got up, she realized that although the child was no longer crying, her pair of big eyes were rolling around non-stop. She had no intention of sleeping at all! Helplessly looking at Yang Guang, Xu Ling could only say, ¡°It looks like she wants to sleep with you. Why don¡¯t you carry her back?¡± ¡°That¡¯s a good idea. Sister, you should rest early.¡± Yang Guang nodded and carried Yaya as he was about to leave. However, before he even left the room, the child curled her lips and started crying again! ¡°Hey, what are you doing, Girl?¡± Yang Guang stopped in his tracks and retreated. Then, Yaya stopped crying. He raised his head and looked at Xu Ling. Both of them were speechless. ¡°Why don¡¯t you sleep in this room? I¡¯ll go back to my room!¡± Xu Ling said and walked away. But before she reached the door, Yaya started crying again! ¡°¡­¡± Yang Guang and Xu Ling were speechless at the same time. It seemed that Yaya did not want Xu Ling to leave! Though she could not even speak, she was very petty! ¡°She wants both of us to accompany her!¡± Yang Guang said. Xu Ling did not know how to react when she heard that. Then, she smiled bitterly and said, ¡°How can that be?¡± A man and a woman were alone. Although they had a child, how could they live in the same room? She had never lived in the same room with a man before, not to mention that there was only one bed in the room! ¡°How about this? Let¡¯s coax her to sleep first, then I¡¯ll leave secretly,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°This is the only way.¡± Xu Ling nodded and sat down helplessly at the bedhead. In the end, Yaya spread her arms, signaling Xu Ling to carry her. Since there was no better solution, Xu Ling took the child and held her in her arms, saying to her, ¡°You Little Brat, hurry up and sleep, or I¡¯ll be angry.¡± Yaya¡¯s face was still covered in tears, but when she heard these words, she grinned. She was not afraid at all! Yang Guang sat down on the stool next to them and looked at the two of them with a smile. ¡°Tonight, I¡¯ll go all out. I don¡¯t believe that she can stay awake longer than us!¡± ¡°You¡¯re right!¡± Xu Ling nodded and smacked Yaya¡¯s nose. Then, she hugged her and laid down on the bed. She patted Yaya¡¯s back gently. ¡°Sleep. Be good and sleep.¡± Her tone was gentle and filled with the gentleness of a woman. When Yang Guang heard it, his heart went numb! In the end, Yaya got up from the bed and stood there waving at Yang Guang! Yang Guang was speechless and smiled helplessly. ¡°What are you doing? Isn¡¯t it enough for Lingling to accompany you? Do you still want me to go over?¡± ¡°Why don¡¯t you come over too?¡± Xu Ling hesitated for a moment, she bit her lips and said with a red face. Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°Ah? Is this appropriate?¡± ¡°Let¡¯s coax her to sleep first.¡± Xu Ling moved into the bed and said evasively. Yang Guang couldn¡¯t wait. When he heard what Xu Ling said and saw her action, he immediately got up and went to the bed. Then, he lay down next to Yaya. There was only a little brat between the two of them. He smelled a faint fragrance, which seemed to be the smell of shampoo. Yang Guang looked at Xu Ling¡¯s hair that hadn¡¯t dried yet. ¡°Sis, what shampoo are you using?¡± ¡°This is a shower gel, jasmine-flavored,¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Oh, it smells so good!¡± Yang Guang smiled and saw Yaya sitting down and lying between the two of them, so he reached out to pat her. In the end, Xu Ling¡¯s hand also slapped over, and the hands of the two of them covered each other up and down! Xu Ling seemed to have been electrocuted. She quickly pulled her hand back, and her face became even redder. The distance between them was less than 30 to 40 centimeters. Looking at her cheeks, Xu Ling¡¯s smooth skin seemed to reflect light. Yang Guang could not help but be a little stunned. However, Yaya clearly did not want the two of them to accompany her like this. She turned around and even started to roll around. She was having a lot of fun! ¡°She didn¡¯t eat anything tonight. Why does this child seem to be on steroids?¡± Yang Guang was stunned. Xu Ling didn¡¯t know what was going on either. She could only smile bitterly and say, ¡°She¡¯s just not sleepy. What else can we do?¡± ¡°No idea. I don¡¯t believe that I can¡¯t endure her!¡± Yang Guang said. Their gazes intersected and then immediately moved away. Neither of them looked at the other. Just like that, they accompanied the child. After an unknown amount of time, Xu Ling felt a wave of tiredness. She was drowsy and was about to fall asleep. Yaya seemed to be tired from playing, so she turned to Yang Guang and pointed at the rope by the bed. ¡°You¡¯re so smart!¡± Knowing that she was asking him to turn off the lights, Yang Guang said in a low voice and turned off the lights in the room. The surroundings suddenly turned dark, but he still couldn¡¯t leave because Yaya actually crawled into Yang Guang¡¯s arms, and after a few caresses, she fell asleep comfortably. Yang Guang looked at the dark roof and thought to himself, ¡°Has this girl really become a demon or something? She¡¯s obviously trying to match Xu Ling and me! If she hadn¡¯t caused such a ruckus, how would I have the chance to sleep on the same bed with her?¡± However, Yaya was only a one-year-old child, can she really be so smart? Wasn¡¯t she too smart? After a while, he felt that Yaya seemed to have fallen asleep, so Yang Guang lowered his voice and said, ¡°Sister Ling, Sister Ling?¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Xu Ling was in a daze as she mumbled. ¡°The child is asleep, so I¡¯ll go back first.¡± Yang Guang said in a low voice. Unexpectedly, Xu Ling mumbled, ¡°Forget it, just sleep here.¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Yang Guang was stunned. He didn¡¯t expect her to say that. Just as he was about to ask, he heard a faint snore from Xu Ling. She had fallen asleep! After a moment of silence, Yang Guang thought to himself, ¡°If you want me to stay, I¡¯ll stay then. This is what you said!¡± Therefore, he did not plan to get up. He directly hugged Yaya and closed his eyes! After falling asleep for some time, he felt Yaya who was in his arms crawl out to the side. Yang Guang did not care. However, as he fell asleep, a person with a fragrant scent crawled into his arms and directly woke Yang Guang up! Chapter 59 - Couldnt Help It Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After waking up, Yang Guang was still a little confused. He hugged the soft and fragrant body in his arms and suddenly thought of the one in his arm might be Xu Ling. Opening his eyes, he saw that the sky had already lit up, so the visibility in the room had also increased a lot. It was no longer so dark that nothing could be seen. As expected, the person who was curled up in his arms and sleeping soundly was Xu Ling! Yang Guang looked up and realized that Yaya had somehow crawled to the other side of the bed and was sleeping soundly! Yang Guang was a little speechless. At the same time, he thought to himself, ¡°Yaya, Yaya, you are so awesome. You are even more awesome than your mum by helping me this way!¡± He was hugging Xu Ling¡¯s shoulders. Her long eyelashes were right in front of him. Yang Guang immediately felt his blood pressure rise and his mouth felt dry. After all, such a beautiful girl was nestled in his arms. That was a scene that he could not even dream of! This was especially so for Xu Ling. Although she was asleep at the moment, her sleeping appearance was very peaceful and beautiful. She was simply stunning. Yang Guang looked at her in a daze. After a while, he could not help but lick his lips. Then, he did something that he deeply regretted! He lowered his head and kissed Xu Ling¡¯s forehead lightly. In the end, this kiss woke her up. Xu Ling raised her head and her eyes widened! Then, she began to struggle out of Yang Guang¡¯s embrace. She pushed him so hard that he almost fell to the ground! Yang Guang turned over and sat up. He smiled sheepishly and lowered his voice, ¡°Sis! I¡­ I didn¡¯t do it on purpose!¡± ¡°Bad Guy!¡± Xu Ling¡¯s face was completely red. After cursing, she immediately asked in a low voice, ¡°When did you hug me?¡± ¡°Just now, you ran into my arms. I really didn¡¯t take the initiative to hug you!¡± Yang Guang explained. ¡°¡­¡± Xu Ling didn¡¯t believe him, but when she saw his eyes, she recalled that he didn¡¯t take advantage of her. He just secretly kissed her, so she turned around and saw that Yaya was already asleep. She turned to Yang Guang again and said, ¡°The child is asleep. You should go back quickly!¡± ¡°Oh!¡± Yang Guang was disappointed. He did not expect such an outcome. If he had known this would happen, he would not have kissed her just now. Then, he could have held her for at least another hour! Unfortunately, it was too late to say anything now. He could only get out of bed and leave quietly. After returning to his room and lying down, Yang Guang was not sleepy at all. With his arm as his pillow and looking at the roof, Yang Guang reminisced about the feeling just now. He thought to himself, ¡°Wouldn¡¯t it be terrific if I can always hug Sister Ling to sleep! Unfortunately, no one could eat hot tofu in a hurry! Yang Guang stared until six o¡¯clock in the morning before he got up. Then, he went out to wash up and began to make breakfast. When he was almost done, Xu Ling carried Yaya who had just woken up and came out. The little girl rubbed her eyes. It was obvious that she had just woken up and was still sleepy. Seeing that Xu Ling did not look at him, Yang Guang felt that she was still angry, so he smiled and said, ¡°Sister, don¡¯t go to the construction site today!¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Xu Ling was stunned and turned to look at him. ¡°Why?¡± ¡°I¡¯m going to start planting Tianma today. I can¡¯t take care of Yaya. Anyway, everything is normal at the construction site. You don¡¯t have to guard it all the time!¡± Yang Guang said. Xu Ling nodded. ¡°Oh, it¡¯s okay. I can carry Yaya over and come back if there¡¯s nothing else.¡± ¡°That¡¯s fine too. Just don¡¯t tire yourself out.¡± Seeing that she was willing to talk to him, Yang Guang secretly heaved a sigh of relief. After breakfast, he took his things and left home, heading straight for the back mountain. Now, he only had tools and honey fungi, but he didn¡¯t have any Tianma yet. So after putting down his things in the cave, Yang Guang went to the mountain again. Last time, he didn¡¯t dig up all the Tianma. Now it was time to make good use of the remaining plants. Since he was going to make a fortune by relying on this, Yang Guang was excited. He was also full of energy when he worked, so he didn¡¯t feel tired at all. After collecting the Tianma, he returned to the cave and began to plant! It was definitely too late to grow them naturally, so as he cultivated them, Yang Guang used the energy of the Method of Divine Farmer. He believed that with such magical power, Tianma would definitely grow well and a promising harvest would be ahead of him! He lost track of time when he was busy. After working for a while, Yang Guang realized that it was already noon! Remembering that Xu Ling and Yaya were still at home, he quickly put down his work and rushed home. However, when he reached home, he realized that lunch was already prepared! Xu Ling was the only one at home. Yang Guang quickly asked, ¡°Sister, where¡¯s the child?¡± ¡°Sister-in-law came back earlier and brought her over!¡± Xu Ling said, then continued, ¡°Sister-in-law said that she wanted to take care of her mother for another two days. She was afraid that Yaya would cry, so she took her away.¡± ¡°Oh¡­¡± When Yang Guang heard that, he suddenly felt a little disappointed. When this expression was revealed, Xu Ling gave him a sideways glance. ¡°So, you can sleep well tonight. You don¡¯t have to be bothered by Yaya anymore!¡± ¡°Yes, yes. This would be good.¡± Yang Guang thought to himself, ¡°I can¡¯t wait for her to make a fuss. What a pity!¡± However, he couldn¡¯t reveal his thought and could only bury them in his heart. After lunch, the two of them didn¡¯t rest and went off to attend their respective work. In the evening, Yang Guang, who had been busy all day, returned home. When he saw that the food was ready, he immediately smiled. Xu Ling sat at the dining table and waited. She looked like a little wife. Yang Guang actually had a misconception in his heart. He felt that she was his wife waiting for him to return home! ¡°Are you tired? Quickly wash up and eat.¡± Xu Ling saw that Yang Guang was smiling very happily, so the corners of her mouth also curled up. After washing his face and hands, Yang Guang sat down and did not stand on ceremony. He immediately wolfed down his food. Seeing this scene, Xu Ling¡¯s heart was filled with joy, so she smiled and asked, ¡°Looks like you¡¯re very tired today?¡± ¡°Not really. I don¡¯t have much physical work, and I¡¯m in a good mood. I don¡¯t feel tired no matter how much work I do!¡± Yang Guang smiled and said. ¡°Have you finished planting the Tianma?¡± Xu Ling continued to ask. ¡°Yes, I¡¯ll go water them tomorrow and wait for them to grow!¡± Yang Guang said as he ate. Xu Ling nodded and didn¡¯t ask any more questions. Then, she began to eat. After dinner, the sky was a little dark. Xu Ling cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks and took her toiletries to take a shower. Looking at her back, Yang Guang started to get excited for no reason. He had also sweated a lot that day. He thought to himself, ¡°When Sister Ling is done showering, I shall go shower too. I wonder if she will leave her underwear in the bathroom later?¡± Thinking of this, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but giggle. If others saw this, they would definitely think that this fellow was an idiot! Just as Yang Guang¡¯s mind was filled with filthy thoughts, a sudden exclamation came from the bathroom! Yang Guang was startled.. He then immediately stood up and rushed over! Chapter 60 - Fire Nematode Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xu Ling¡¯s exclamation only lasted for a second before Yang Guang arrived. However, there was a curtain blocking the bathroom, so he did not know what was going on inside. Therefore, he stopped in his tracks and immediately asked, ¡°Sis, what happened to you?¡± ¡°I¡­ I was bitten by something¡­¡± Xu Ling¡¯s voice was shaky and filled with fear. Yang Guang was a little anxious, but he did not dare to barge in. He could only ask, ¡°Where did it bite? Are you alright? Can you move now?¡± ¡°On my shoulder. I can¡¯t see it. You don¡¯t come in first!¡± In the bathroom, Xu Ling was nervous and afraid. She was afraid that she would be bitten by an unknown bug. The pain in her shoulder was very intense. As for her nervousness, she was not wearing anything. If Yang Guang came in, wouldn¡¯t he see her naked? Thus, Xu Ling endured the pain and slowly stood up to take her clothes. However, her shoulder was too painful, and she could not put them on by herself! At this time, Yang Guang was also anxious as he was waiting outside. He asked loudly, ¡°Sister, are you okay?¡± What he was most worried about now was that Xu Ling had been bitten by a poisonous bug. If he did not save her in time, the consequences would be very serious. At this time, he heard Xu Ling say weakly from inside, ¡°Wait¡­ Wait a little longer¡­¡± Hearing this voice, Yang Guang was anxious! He knew that Xu Ling was afraid of being seen by him, but he could not care too much now. Therefore, Yang Guang said in a deep voice, ¡°Sister, don¡¯t be afraid. I¡¯ll come in with my eyes closed!¡± After saying that, he closed his eyes. Then, he reached out to open the curtain and entered the bathroom! Xu Ling almost cried out in surprise, but when she saw that Yang Guang¡¯s eyes were tightly closed, her heart was relieved. On second thought, Xu Ling thought of another question. How could he help her with his eyes closed? Just as she was at a loss on what to do, Yang Guang said in a deep voice, ¡°Sister, come over to my side. I¡¯ll carry you back to your room first. Then, I¡¯ll cover your body with a bedsheet. Then, you can be treated!¡± ¡°Oh¡­¡± When Xu Ling heard that, she felt that his suggestion was feasible. Therefore, she endured the pain and slowly walked over. She was gasping for air. When Yang Guang heard that, he hurriedly said, ¡°Bear with it. It¡¯ll be over soon.¡± After saying that, he felt Xu Ling approaching him. He stretched out his hands and found Xu Ling¡¯s shoulder. Both of their hearts were beating very fast. They could even hear it! Amidst the banging sounds, Yang Guang¡¯s palm slowly slid down. He held Xu Ling¡¯s shoulder with one hand and then slightly squatted down. His other hand was bent toward her leg. As he was just making a rough estimation, it was inevitable that he would make a mistake in his judgment. In an instant, he touched Xu Ling¡¯s thigh! Xu Ling¡¯s body trembled. Not only her face, but even her ears were also red! All her attention was now on Yang Guang¡¯s eyes. Her heart was hanging in the air because Xu Ling was afraid that he would be unscrupulous and suddenly open his eyes! If that was the case, she really would not know how to face him! His palm moved down along the smooth skin of her thigh. Yang Guang found Xu Ling¡¯s leg and reached out his hand. With a push of his arms, he hugged her in his arms! Her fragrant and wet body was cold and soft. He thought to himself that it was a pity that he couldn¡¯t see it. The scenery must be extremely beautiful. His mind was running wild, but Yang Guang didn¡¯t stop. He turned around and walked out of the bathroom. Since it was his home, he was naturally very familiar with it, so he quickly carried Xu Ling into the room. After coming to his sister-in-law¡¯s room and putting her on the bed, Yang Guang said, ¡°Sister, lie down on the bed. I¡¯ll find the bedsheet for you!¡± ¡°There¡¯s one beside me. I¡¯ll do it myself!¡± Xu Ling felt that she was getting weaker. She slowly turned over weakly and pulled the bedsheet over. Just as she covered her butt, Yang Guang opened his eyes. Since it was her back, he could not see any sensitive parts. He was very keen to see Xu Ling¡¯s injuries at this moment. In the end, he was stunned when he saw her. Xu Ling¡¯s left shoulder was now swollen with a big round bump! This bump was not red, but black! Seeing this, Yang Guang¡¯s heart sank. ¡°It¡¯s a fire nematode!¡± This was a highly poisonous worm. It was not common in the mountains, but this worm was very powerful. If someone with an allergic constitution was bitten by it, the poison could even cause death! Now that Xu Ling¡¯s shoulder was so swollen, Yang Guang could tell that she had an allergic constitution! Therefore, he could not be bothered to look at her snow-white back. Yang Guang quickly said, ¡°Sister, wait a moment, I¡¯ll be right back!¡± After saying that, he quickly rushed out of the room and went to the kitchen to get a lighter and a fruit knife! After returning to the room, he used a lighter to disinfect it. Then, Yang Guang used the blade to pierce the lump. Black blood kept flowing out. As he caught it with a towel, Yang Guang squeezed the lump gently. As he squeezed, Xu Ling immediately moaned in pain. It was very painful. Cold sweat broke out on Yang Guang¡¯s forehead, but he forced himself to remain calm. After squeezing twice, his palm covered her scapula. Then, the energy of the Method of Divine Farmer was released and quickly entered Xu Ling¡¯s body. Xu Ling, whose consciousness was already blurry, suddenly felt a warm current flowing through her body, and the pain instantly eased quite a bit. She was instantly relieved when she knew that she would be fine. At the same time, her gratitude towards Yang Guang also quickly grew. If it wasn¡¯t for him, it was really hard to say what would have happened to her. Time passed by minute by minute. After an unknown amount of time, Xu Ling couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°How is it? Are you done?¡± ¡°Yup!¡± Yang Guang let out a long breath. He picked up the towel that was covered in black blood, stood up, and threw it outside. After returning, he saw that Xu Ling was still lying there. He smiled and asked, ¡°Sister, do you want to rest first, or you want to put on your clothes first?¡± ¡°I am a little tired. I¡¯d better lie down for a while!¡± Xu Ling said, and then asked curiously, ¡°What is a fire nematode? I heard you say something just now when I was sluggish.¡± ¡°It¡¯s a kind of worm that¡¯s not very common. Maybe you¡¯re too fragrant, so you lured it here. I¡¯ll catch it later!¡± Yang Guang smiled and said. ¡°I think better not. Since it¡¯s so dangerous, just let it go by itself!¡± Xu Ling said. Yang Guang shook his head. ¡°That won¡¯t do. It is of great use after we catch it. I can turn it into medicine!¡± After saying that, he saw that Xu Ling¡¯s back was still exposed. He came closer and pulled up the bedsheet. ¡°You rest first. I¡¯m going out.¡± Xu Ling acknowledged. Seeing him turn around and leave, she was suddenly stunned. A strange feeling rose in her heart. She could not tell what it was. After a long while, Xu Ling whispered to herself, ¡°Hmm¡­ Am I in love with this kid?¡± After saying that, her face blushed and she quickly buried her head in the bed. She thought to herself, ¡°I¡¯m too shameless.. I actually think about such things!¡± Chapter 61 - There Were Benefits Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang returned to the bathroom and used his flashlight to search through the cracks in the surrounding walls. Then, he finally saw a red worm in the crack on the roof! The worm was about three to four centimeters long. Its entire body was scarlet red. There was a pair of antennae on its head. Its mouthpart was a pair of big, shiny red mandibles. Seeing it, Yang Guang laughed coldly. He thought to himself that the fire nematode should forget about escaping at this moment! He used chopsticks to grab it, and the worm was caught. The fire nematode still wanted to struggle, but it was unable to break free from the chopsticks. Then, it was thrown into the bottle by Yang Guang. Yang Guang was not in a hurry to kill it. He put it away, closed the lid, and took it back to his room. He glanced at Xu Ling¡¯s room and found that she was already asleep, so Yang Guang did not disturb her. He put the bottle containing the fire nematode back into his room and then went to take a shower. The night passed peacefully. Before he woke up the next morning, Yang Guang heard footsteps outside. He quickly got up and looked out. Xu Ling was wearing a tank top and shorts. She was about to wash up. ¡°Sis, how do you feel?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°I¡¯m fine. I slept soundly last night!¡± Xu Ling smiled. Then, as if she remembered something, she pulled open the clothes on her shoulder. ¡°Oh right, help me take a look. Won¡¯t there be a scar on the wound?¡± ¡°No, don¡¯t worry. It¡¯s only a small wound. There definitely won¡¯t be a scar!¡± Yang Guang smiled and glanced at her shoulder. The spot where the bite was had already formed a scab, turning into a dark red dot. The area was only the size of a soybean. This was not important. When he saw the transparent strap on her shoulder, Yang Guang was stunned for a moment. Then, he realized that this should be her underwear strap, so he did not look at it anymore. After making sure that there were no scars, Xu Ling smiled happily. Then, she said to Yang Guang, ¡°Thank you for last night. If it weren¡¯t for you, I don¡¯t even know what would have happened to me!¡± ¡°It was indeed a little dangerous. Fortunately, nothing major happened!¡± Yang Guang nodded and continued, ¡°If something happened to you, Sister-in-law and I would feel very guilty!¡± Xu Ling¡¯s heart warmed, and the way she looked at Yang Guang became a little strange. However, Yang Guang did not notice this. He smiled and said, ¡°I¡¯ll go and make breakfast. Sister, you should wash up first!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Xu Ling nodded and the two of them went out together. After last night¡¯s incident, the relationship between Xu Ling and Yang Guang seemed to have become closer. They chatted happily during breakfast. This feeling was very obvious, and Yang Guang was secretly delighted. Before he finished his breakfast, the phone suddenly rang. Seeing that it was Mu Xiaowan calling, Yang Guang picked up the call and asked, ¡°What¡¯s up?¡± ¡°Are you busy today?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. ¡°I¡¯m a little busy. What¡¯s up?¡± ¡°Then you can leave the matter aside first. Come to the county town to find me. I need your help as what I had told you that day!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. Yang Guang was speechless. ¡°Didn¡¯t you say it would be a few days later?¡± ¡°It¡¯s brought forward!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. Then, she changed her tone and said impatiently, ¡°Your matter isn¡¯t urgent anyway. Hurry up and come!¡± ¡°Uh, who said that my matter isn¡¯t urgent?¡± Yang Guang smiled bitterly and continued, ¡°I¡¯m very busy, okay? Do you think that you can ask me to come and go as you wish?¡± ¡°Yo, are you going to reject me?¡± Mu Xiaowan sneered and continued, ¡°Then don¡¯t regret it!¡± ¡°Regret?¡± Yang Guang was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and said, ¡°Why should I regret it?¡± ¡°Because I¡¯m asking you to make a guest appearance as my boyfriend today. There are benefits!¡± Mu Xiaowan chuckled and continued, ¡°Of course, if you¡¯re too busy, then forget it. I believe that as long as I wave my hand, there will be many men fighting to help me!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t!¡± When Yang Guang heard this, he became anxious and immediately said seriously, ¡°I¡¯ll help you with this. Just wait for me and don¡¯t look for anyone else!¡± ¡°That¡¯s not necessarily the case. I¡¯ll look for someone else if you do not reach the county town at ten in the morning!¡± Mu Xiaowan said this and directly hung up the phone. Seeing that the screen went dark, Yang Guang shook his head helplessly. Then, he raised his head and said to Xu Ling, ¡°Sister, Mu Xiaowan asked me to help her!¡± ¡°Then go. Since your Tianma has been planted, there¡¯s nothing to do for the time being,¡± Xu Ling said lightly. Seeing that the smile on her face had disappeared, Yang Guang¡¯s heart skipped a beat. He couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°Sister, are you jealous?¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Xu Ling was stunned. Then, she burst out laughing, ¡°What are you thinking about? Why would I be jealous?¡± ¡°Oh, that¡¯s good, that¡¯s good!¡± Yang Guang scratched his head and continued, ¡°Then I¡¯ll take a bus to the town later. Help me take care of the house.¡± ¡°Okay, don¡¯t worry!¡± Xu Ling nodded, then lowered her head and began to eat her porridge. Yang Guang didn¡¯t think too much about it. After finishing his meal, he packed up and hurriedly left the house to take a bus. When he got on the bus to the county, he looked at the scenery outside the window that was constantly retreating. He thought to himself, ¡°Why did Mu Xiaowan ask me to pretend to be her boyfriend? Could it be that this girl fell in love with me and was embarrassed to say it out loud, so she is using this method to confirm her relationship with me?¡± If that was the case, Yang Guang would reluctantly accept her. Although this girl had a fiery temper, she was indeed very beautiful. The shortcoming of her temper was tolerable. After letting his imagination run wild for a long time, the bus arrived at the county. After getting out of the bus, Yang Guang took out his phone and called Mu Xiaowan. ¡°Where are you? I¡¯m here!¡± ¡°Is that so? When you heard that there are benefits, you are very proactive!¡± Mu Xiaowan ridiculed and continued, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m putting on my makeup. I¡¯ll pick you up when I¡¯m done!¡± ¡°I¡¯m not going to wait for you here. Just tell me where you are and I¡¯ll go look for you!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°That¡¯s fine. Come to Chengnan Mansion in the south of the county. When you arrive, I¡¯ll be done!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°Okay!¡± Yang Guang hung up the phone and quickly stopped a taxi. More than 20 minutes later, he arrived at the gate of Chengnan Mansion. This was a high-end residential area. One could tell just by looking at the gate of the residential area. The ten-meter-tall entrance was very imposing. The entrance was divided into four passages, one for cars and the other for pedestrians. Two uniformed security guards stood at the entrance. They were both young men who were about 1.8 meters tall. They looked very energetic and very imposing. Looking at the houses in the residential area, there were only three-story villas that were faintly discernible in the dense forest. ¡°Wow, this house must be at least a few thousand per square meter, right?¡± Yang Guang smacked his lips and said. ¡°A few thousand? Where did this country bumpkin come from? The house price here starts from ten thousand, do you know that?¡± A voice filled with ridicule was heard. Yang Guang turned around and saw a thin young man with a pair of triangular eyes. He was sizing him up with a face full of disdain! This attitude and tone directly provoked Yang Guang, so he asked impolitely, ¡°Where did you come from? When I speak, when would be your turn to interrupt?¡± Chapter 62 - Relatives Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Hearing Yang Guang¡¯s words, the skinny Triangle-eyed Man became anxious. He glared at Yang Guang to say angrily, ¡°You brat, how dare you talk to me like that. Do you know who I am?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t care who you are. Get lost!¡± Yang Guang did not restrain himself and shouted angrily. Then, the Triangle-eyed Man became anxious. He was clearly wearing a half-sleeved shirt, but he made a gesture of rolling up his sleeves. ¡°Yo, there really are people who eat raw rice. Who dares to provoke Mr. He here!¡± Looking at his arm that was as thin as a hemp pole, Yang Guang sneered, ¡°You, do you think you¡¯re worthy to be called as Mr. Han? Han Hemp Pole is more like it!¡± The Triangle-eyed Man became even angrier when he heard that. He also forgot that he was the one who started the fight. He raised his fist and threw it at Yang Guang. Yang Guang was speechless. He wanted to start a fight just because of a disagreement. Who gave this thin man the courage to do so? Seeing that the other party¡¯s fist was in front of him, Yang Guang did not dodge. It was obvious that the Triangle-eyed Man did not have much strength and could not hurt anyone at all. Moreover, in order to avoid trouble, he wanted the other party to punch him first so that he would have a reason to fight back. Therefore, Yang Guang took a hit and felt that the other party¡¯s fist was like a tickle for him. He immediately smiled and then swung his hand to slap the other party¡¯s big mouth! With a bang, the Triangle-eyed Man was slapped into a spinning top. It spun on the spot twice before it fell to the ground. Immediately after, a clear palm print appeared on his face! The Triangle-eyed Man cried out in pain and fell to the ground. He did not get up for a long time. Yang Guang did not go forward either. He stood at the side with a grim smile and watched quietly. At this moment, a small red sports car drove out of the neighborhood and stopped beside him with a screech. Mu Xiaowan looked at the scene in front of her with some surprise. After getting out of the car, she saw the Triangle-eyed Man was still on the ground. She quickly ran over and asked, ¡°Uncle, what happened to you?¡± ¡°What?¡± Yang Guang was stunned when he heard that. He had actually hit her uncle? Wasn¡¯t he causing trouble to himself unknowingly? In silence, the Triangle-eyed Man was helped up by Mu Xiaowan. He covered his face with one hand and pointed at Yang Guang with the other. ¡°Xiaowan, haven¡¯t you practiced kung fu before? Beat this kid up for me. He almost slapped me to death with one slap!¡± ¡°Err¡­¡± Mu Xiaowan reacted and was a little confused. She raised her head to look at Yang Guang and asked in puzzlement, ¡°Did you beat up my uncle?¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes. ¡°Who cares who he is? This guy deserves a beating!¡± The Triangle-eyed Man was stunned and looked at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°You two know each other?¡± ¡°Yes, he¡­ He is my boyfriend.¡± Mu Xiaowan blushed and whispered. ¡°Uh¡­¡± Now, it was the Triangle Man¡¯s turn to be stunned. After rolling his eyes, he had an idea! After standing up, the Triangle-eyed Man said to Mu Xiaowan, ¡°Who are you befriending? He hit me without any reason. Xiaowan, this is not over!¡± ¡°You are still trying to be aggressive, aren¡¯t you?¡± Yang Guang realized that he was going to force Mu Xiaowan to ¡°break up¡± with him! Although it was just a disguise, the mission was going to end before it had even started. How could he allow that? He had not received his benefits yet! Therefore, Yang Guang quickly said, ¡°Hey, don¡¯t be the first to complain. You know very well why I hit you. Do you want to ask the security guard to show you the surveillance footage?¡± ¡°So what are we going to do after seeing it? I¡¯m old enough to teach you a lesson, yet you hit me so ruthlessly. Aren¡¯t you bullying me too much?¡± The Triangle-eyed Man quibbled. Yang Guang was speechless. How could he say such a thing? How shameless! Narrowing his eyes, he saw a small tree next to him from the corner of his eye. It was a newly planted tree. It was as thick as the rim of a cup. So he sneered and looked at the Triangle-eyed Man. ¡°Bully? I was just trying to educate you. If I was really ruthless, you would be dead by now!¡± Before he finished his sentence, he directly punched the small tree with his left hand without even moving his head. Crack! With a crisp sound, the three-meter-tall small tree was broken, revealing the sapwood inside! This punch not only shocked the Triangle-eyed Man, but also Mu Xiaowan. She knew that Yang Guang was powerful, but she didn¡¯t expect him to be so powerful. Even a black belt karate practitioner wouldn¡¯t be able to break a small tree with one punch, right? In the silence, Yang Guang looked at her. ¡°Wan ¡®Er, didn¡¯t you say that you have something to do later? Let¡¯s go.¡± ¡°Ah¡­¡± Mu Xiaowan came back to her senses and turned to look at the Triangle-eyed Man. ¡°Well, Xiaowan, you go first. We¡¯ll talk about this later.¡± The Triangle-eyed Man was greatly frightened. He thought to himself, if Yang Guang had used that kind of force on the slap just now, his head would have already been moved? Thus, he didn¡¯t dare to shout anymore and directly admitted defeat. Mu Xiaowan returned to the car. Yang Guang also got in the car and they left. After driving for a short distance, Yang Guang asked, ¡°That guy is your uncle?¡± ¡°Yup, he is my uncle, Han Li. What¡¯s the matter with you guys?¡± Mu Xiaowan looked at the road ahead and asked. ¡°You still don¡¯t understand me. Am I a person who causes trouble everywhere? On the contrary, do you understand your uncle?¡± Yang Guang asked with a smile. Mu Xiaowan didn¡¯t say anything. She naturally understood Han Li! Her uncle didn¡¯t have any other problems. It was just that after he became rich, he became arrogant and his words were extremely harsh! Thus, it was very obvious that she knew that the situation just now was definitely not caused by Yang Guang. But no matter what, he was still her mother¡¯s younger brother. He was her elder. What could Mu Xiaowan say? So she simply didn¡¯t say anything. Yang Guang didn¡¯t continue talking about this matter. On the contrary, he asked, ¡°Where are we going? Don¡¯t tell me you want me to accompany you for another night?¡± ¡°What are you talking about? You make yourself sound like a gigolo!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes at him and continued, ¡°Just accompany me for a meal and let everyone know that I have a boyfriend. Then, your mission will be considered completed. If you¡¯re in a hurry to go home, I¡¯ll pay for a taxi for you to go home later!¡± Yang Guang was amused when he heard that. He could not help but ask, ¡°What are you doing? Just to let others know that you have a boyfriend?¡± Mu Xiaowan looked at him with an innocent expression. ¡°That¡¯s right. Isn¡¯t this very normal?¡± Yang Guang shook his head. ¡°I don¡¯t think it¡¯s normal. For such a beautiful girl like you, finding a boyfriend is a piece of cake. You actually want me to pretend to be your boyfriend?¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes. ¡°Because I haven¡¯t met a suitable one yet, and my classmates already have boyfriends, I don¡¯t want them to look down on me. I have to find someone to make up the scene. Are you satisfied now?¡± ¡°Oh, women, how complicated!¡± Yang Guang sighed after hearing that. However, when Mu Xiaowan heard that, she was so angry that she almost drove the car into the bushes by the roadside! She stepped on the brake and slowed down before she glared at Yang Guang. ¡°Don¡¯t talk nonsense! You¡¯re the woman!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Yang Guang was speechless. He did not expect her to be angry about this. Hence, he smiled. ¡°You¡¯re the one who¡¯s talking nonsense. I¡¯m clearly a man. How am I a woman?¡± ¡°Hmph, you don¡¯t even have hair around your mouth. How dare you say you¡¯re a man?¡± Mu Xiaowan raised her chin and said disdainfully! Chapter 63 - Dear Wife Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was displeased when he heard that. He turned around and glared at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°I don¡¯t like to hear that. Although I don¡¯t have a mustache, I have hair elsewhere!¡± ¡°You, you, Scoundrel!¡± When Mu Xiaowan heard that, her face instantly turned red. She even stuttered when she spoke. Yang Guang looked at her and asked innocently, ¡°I said I have armpit hair. How would that turn me into a scoundrel? What are you thinking about?¡± Mu Xiaowan did not know how to refute. She realized that she couldn¡¯t win against this glib-tongued guy, so she simply shut up and didn¡¯t speak anymore! Yang Guang chuckled and also stopped when things were good. The car drove from the south of the city to the north of the city and finally stopped at the parking lot of a building. As he unfastened his seatbelt, Mu Xiaowan said to Yang Guang, ¡°If you can stay glib throughout the day, you¡¯d better perform well tonight. Among my classmates, there are a few who are more sarcastic. Help me to slash them with your words!¡± ¡°Sure, but what I¡¯m most concerned about is the benefit I¡¯m going to receive. If I help you so wholeheartedly, I can¡¯t help you for nothing, right?¡± Yang Guang asked with a smile. Mu Xiaowan¡¯s eyes narrowed. What kind of benefit did he want? ¡°You say it yourself. How would I know what you can give me?¡± Yang Guang asked back. ¡°All I can give you is money. How much do you want?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. Yang Guang shook his head. ¡°Stop fooling around. I¡¯m not short of money. Besides, it¡¯s immoral to take the money and pretend to be your boyfriend, okay? I¡¯m afraid that I¡¯ll have my retribution!¡± ¡°You have no morals since the first day I met you!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. Seeing that Yang Guang was depressed, she quickly changed the topic. ¡°Then what exactly do you want?!¡± ¡°It¡¯s nothing. Since I¡¯m your temporary boyfriend, I only want the benefits that a boyfriend should have!¡± Yang Guang smiled. Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaowan immediately became alert. ¡°Don¡¯t do anything rash. I¡¯m warning you¡­¡± ¡°I¡¯m talking about holding your hands and hugging your shoulders! Then only others will believe that I¡¯m your boyfriend. What are you thinking?¡± Yang Guang asked with a smile. Mu Xiaowan felt defeated. She sighed and said, ¡°Alright, I can¡¯t win against you. I promise you. Is that alright?¡± ¡°Alright!¡± Yang Guang chuckled, opened the door and got out of the car. When the two of them walked to the restaurant together, he reached out and hugged Mu Xiaowan¡¯s shoulder! With her fragrant shoulder in his arms, a familiar faint fragrance assaulted him once again. Yang Guang couldn¡¯t control himself. He immediately took a few deep breaths with an intoxicated look on his face! Mu Xiaowan¡¯s face flushed red. It was the first time she was hugged by a strange man. She felt very strange, and her heartbeat sped up a lot. However, she did not feel much disgust in her heart. On the contrary, there was a hint of joy. She did not know why. There was a huge decorated door at the entrance of the restaurant. The blower was buzzing. Yang Guang looked at the paper on it. There were two names written on it, so he asked, ¡°Is this Li Fei your classmate or that Gu Feng?¡± ¡°Li Fei, today is her engagement party!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. Yang Guang was speechless. ¡°No way! How can they change the date at wish?¡± ¡°What do you mean?¡± Mu Xiaowan did not understand and turned to look at him. Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Last time, you said that you would need my help a few days later. In the end, it was suddenly brought forward. Isn¡¯t it because your classmate changed the engagement date?¡± ¡°I¡¯m impressed that you can think of such a thing!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes at him. ¡°I originally didn¡¯t plan to come here. I needed your help because of something else!¡± ¡°I see. Does that mean that you still have to see me in a few days?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°It depends on your performance later. If you don¡¯t perform well, I don¡¯t mind changing someone else!¡± Mu Xiaowan said in a bad mood. The two of them spoke one after another as they walked into the restaurant. Because it was an engagement ceremony, it wasn¡¯t like a wedding where a couple had to greet the guests at the door. There were only a few young men and women in the hall, guiding the guests to the banquet hall. Therefore, Yang Guang and Mu Xiaowan also walked to the hall at the side under their arrangement. Upon entering the door, Yang Guang saw that the hall was very large. There were nearly forty tables, and people were sitting at each table. Yang Guang could not help but click his tongue. ¡°Good heavens, they are rich people. Why are there so many tables all at once!¡± ¡°Can you please not act like a country bumpkin? This is a joint event between two families. Each family having twenty tables is not too much, right?¡± Yang Guang looked at her. ¡°That¡¯s still not a small number. If all the people from Qingshan Village are here, we can¡¯t even fill 20 tables!¡± ¡°That¡¯s your village. This is the county town. Who doesn¡¯t have relatives, friends, classmates, and colleagues?¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes. After rolling her eyes at him, her gaze locked onto a table by the window. There were already a few young men and women sitting there, chatting and laughing. She pouted her lips and said to Yang Guang, ¡°Let¡¯s go. It¡¯s time for you to meet my classmates!¡± ¡°Yes, my dear wife!¡± Yang Guang¡¯s words made Mu Xiaowan stagger and almost fall to the ground! She turned around and glared at him. Mu Xiaowan said, ¡°You Scoundrel! Don¡¯t take advantage of me!¡± ¡°This is one of my benefits!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and winked at her. He was very annoying! ¡°It¡¯s all my fault. Forget it, just admit my bad luck!¡± Mu Xiaowan comforted herself in her heart and walked over. At this moment, Yang Guang was no longer hugging her shoulders. Instead, he was holding her hand. The two of them walked up to her classmates hand in hand. When the men and women at the table saw Mu Xiaowan, they smiled and greeted her. At the same time, they sized up Yang Guang. Among them, there was a young man wearing glasses. The way he looked at Yang Guang was as if he wanted to study his clothes from head to toe to see what brand they were. Such rude behavior instantly made Yang Guang feel very unhappy! However, it was not the time to scold others. He could only endure it. He maintained a warm smile and looked like a wolf with a big tail. At this moment, Mu Xiaowan had already introduced everyone. The three women and two men on the table were all her classmates. When it was time to introduce Yang Guang, Mu Xiaowan hesitated for a moment, then took a deep breath and said, ¡°This is Yang Guang, my¡­ my boyfriend!¡± When she said this, her face suddenly turned red. Noticing this scene, Yang Guang reached out and put his arm around her shoulder. ¡°Hello, everyone. My Xiaowan is a little shy. Don¡¯t take offense!¡± The intimate gesture made everyone not suspect him, therefore, the girl called Chen Bing smiled and said, ¡°Oh, Xiaowan has really changed. She never had a boyfriend before. Now, you are so shy in front of your boyfriend. You are a completely different person!¡± Noticing her tone, Yang Guang felt that this person¡¯s words seemed to contain a hint of sarcasm, so he smiled and said, ¡°That¡¯s very normal. Girls will naturally change under the nourishment of love!¡± ¡°You really know how to talk. How old are you, Young Man?¡± Chen Bing asked with a smile.. Chapter 64 - Little Boy Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Nineteen years old!¡± ¡°Ah, I was just saying that you look young, so you¡¯re actually younger than Xiaowan!¡± Chen Bing said in surprise. Then, she looked at Mu Xiaowan, her eyes full of ridicule. ¡°You were not looking for any boyfriend before. We didn¡¯t expect you would get a little boy as a boyfriend. Aren¡¯t you robbing the cradle?¡± When Yang Guang heard this, he felt even more annoyed. He felt that Chen Bing was always pushing hard at Mu Xiaowan. Could it be that there was some sort of grudge between the two of them? Thinking of how she had previously told him to show off his eloquence promptly to refute those who harbored ill intentions, Yang Guang smiled slightly and pulled Mu Xiaowan to sit down. Then, he looked at Chen Bing and said, ¡°I didn¡¯t understand your words. Our Xiaowan has never cradled me before. However, I saw the way you looked at me as if you were very interested in me. If you want, you can cradle me first!¡± ¡°You!¡± Chen Bing was teasing Mu Xiaowan in the first place, but when she heard that, her face immediately turned red. Then, her expression changed. ¡°How can you say that!¡± ¡°Sister, don¡¯t be angry. You said that I¡¯m a little boy. What bad intentions can a little boy like me have?¡± Yang Guang laughed. When he said that, the two girls beside Chen Bing were amused. They found it inappropriate to laugh, so they could only cover their mouths and secretly laugh. ¡°Glib tongue!¡± Chen Bing rolled her eyes at Yang Guang, then turned to look at Mu Xiaowan and squeezed out a smile. ¡°Xiaowan, long time no see. I¡¯m just joking with you. Don¡¯t be angry!¡± ¡°No, why would I?¡± Mu Xiaowan smiled and turned to look at the stage. ¡°Li Fei hasn¡¯t come out yet?¡± ¡°She¡¯s putting on her makeup. I don¡¯t think she¡¯ll have time to come here later. She¡¯s going to go on stage directly,¡± said the bespectacled man. Mu Xiaowan had already introduced this person. His name was Wang Li. From the beginning until now, his gaze had only stayed on Yang Guang for a dozen seconds. The rest of the time, he had been looking at Mu Xiaowan, and his eyes were fixed on her. Noticing this detail, Yang Guang thought that this person might have a crush on her. He might even have pursued her, but he had never received a positive response. From his eyes that were filled with obsession, it could be seen that he had a deep affection for Mu Xiaowan. Sure enough, Chen Bing spoke up again at this time. She looked at Wang Li and said, ¡°You were so good to Xiaowan in school, but it¡¯s a pity that she did not respond to your affection. Now that she has a boyfriend, aren¡¯t you disappointed?¡± ¡°No!¡± Wang Li denied it immediately and said, ¡°I know that I¡¯m not good enough for Xiaowan, so I¡¯ve been working hard. I hope that I can achieve something as soon as possible!¡± ¡°Oh, I forgot to ask just now. Wang Li, what are you doing now?¡± Chen Bing asked. ¡°I¡¯ve started a financial project myself, and I¡¯m going to start financing soon!¡± Wang Li said lightly with a trace of pride. Chen Bing¡¯s eyes lit up. ¡°Yo, it¡¯s only been a while. I¡¯m impressed!¡± ¡°It¡¯s just a small project!¡± Wang Li said modestly. While they were talking, Mu Xiaowan and Yang Guang didn¡¯t say anything and just listened quietly. But under the table, the two of them had been competing! Mu Xiaowan wanted to pull her hand back, but Yang Guang didn¡¯t let go! Therefore, she maintained her composure with a faint smile on her face but secretly, she couldn¡¯t break free though she had used all her strength! In the end, she had no choice but to give up. At the same time, Mu Xiaowan thought to herself, ¡°I don¡¯t believe that you won¡¯t let go when we eat later!¡± Thinking of this, Mu Xiaowan¡¯s heart trembled. This fellow always acted unexpectedly. If he really did not let go, what would she do if he fed her with chopsticks? ¡°Absolutely not, that¡¯s too disgusting!¡± Mu Xiaowan gritted her teeth, thinking to herself, ¡°Yang Guang, if you dare to do that, I will not let you off!¡± After a while, another person came. It was also a woman. She was not tall as she was only about 1.6 meters. However, the width of this woman¡¯s body was a little shocking. Her waist could even match two of Mu Xiaowan¡¯s! Moreover, this woman was dark and fat! Seeing her walk over, Yang Guang¡¯s heart sank. ¡°D*mn, this woman is also their classmate?¡± Sure enough, the fat dark woman came closer. Chen Bing stood up when she saw her. ¡°Yuyu, why did you come so late?¡± She was much happier than when Mu Xiaowan came! He Yu¡¯s fat face revealed a smile and said indifferently, ¡°I hired a new driver. He is not familiar with the road, so we took a few detours!¡± ¡°No wonder, sit down!¡± Chen Bing pulled He Yu to sit beside her. She was so friendly as if they were sisters. He Yu did not seem to want to talk to her. She turned to look at the crowd and nodded to greet them one by one. Her gaze finally landed on Mu Xiaowan. ¡°You¡¯re here too?¡± ¡°Yes!¡± Mu Xiaowan nodded and did not say anything more. Yang Guang looked at the strange situation and asked in a low voice, ¡°What¡¯s the situation?¡± Mu Xiaowan looked at him with a hint of not knowing what to say in her eyes. She said, ¡°Nothing. My classmate, He Yu!¡± ¡°Yuyu, let me introduce you. The boy¡¯s name is Yang Guang. He¡¯s Xiaowan¡¯s boyfriend!¡± Chen Bing was the fastest and she immediately introduced him. He Yu was stunned. She looked at Yang Guang and then at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°Finally enlightenment dawns?¡± ¡°It has nothing to do with enlightenment. It¡¯s just that I met the right person!¡± Mu Xiaowan said lightly. ¡°Oh.¡± He Yu nodded, but there was still no expression on her face. She continued, ¡°If my brother knew about this, he would definitely be very sad, right?¡± Mu Xiaowan was impassive. ¡°That has nothing to do with me. I¡¯ve already said many times that I didn¡¯t want to have a boyfriend at that time!¡± ¡°Understood!¡± He Yu revealed a rare smile. She looked at Yang Guang with a scrutinizing gaze. ¡°What do you do? Where do you work?¡± Her slow tone, cold glance, and condescending tone made Yang Guang very unhappy. He smiled and replied, ¡°I¡¯m just a village doctor. I treat everyone in the village!¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Chen Bing was stunned when she heard that. She looked at Mu Xiaowan in shock. ¡°No way. The young master of the He family is rich and handsome. Yet, you actually chose a little village doctor?¡± Mu Xiaowan did not say anything. Yang Guang glared at her unhappily. ¡°A doctor is a doctor. Why would you use the word ¡®little¡¯? How am I little?¡± ¡°Of course, I¡¯m talking about your age!¡± Chen Bing¡¯s face turned red. Then, she glared at him. ¡°I don¡¯t know what kind of flowery speech you used. A normal young doctor can actually become Xiaowan¡¯s boyfriend!¡± ¡°An extraordinary person naturally has extraordinary abilities!¡± Yang Guang smiled proudly and turned to look at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°We are truly in love, right?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± Mu Xiaowan¡¯s heart was filled with hatred. This rascal was getting more and more insatiable! He Yu looked at the two of them and sighed slightly. ¡°What a pity!¡± Yang Guang was stunned. He raised his head to look at her. ¡°What¡¯s a pity?¡± ¡°Xiaowan was publicly acknowledged as the school belle at that time. In the end, she was blinded by love. Look at Li Fei. Although her husband is a little old, she will be well-fed in the future. She will have nothing to worry about!¡± He Yu said. Yang Guang was speechless when he heard that.. ¡°What are you saying? Xiaowan is not short of money!¡± Chapter 65 - So What if You Had Money? Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio He Yu looked at Yang Guang and said, ¡°So you still don¡¯t know about the situation in the Mu family?¡± ¡°What is it?¡± Yang Guang was stunned for a moment and asked in puzzlement. ¡°Xiaowan, do you mind if I tell him?¡± He Yu didn¡¯t answer but looked at Mu Xiaowan. However, Mu Xiaowan shook her head and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry about it. I will tell Yang Guang about my family matters myself!¡± ¡°Oh, that¡¯s good too!¡± He Yu nodded and continued, ¡°Then I won¡¯t be the bad guy. After all, if I say it out loud, I¡¯m afraid he¡¯ll be disappointed if he¡¯s after your family¡¯s wealth!¡± Hearing this, Chen Bing¡¯s interest was immediately piqued. She lowered her voice and asked, ¡°Yuyu, what¡¯s going on? Did something happen to Xiaowan¡¯s family?¡± He Yu looked at her. ¡°You¡¯re still as gossipy as ever. Don¡¯t ask about things you shouldn¡¯t ask!¡± One sentence made Chen Bing instantly shut up. Yang Guang watched from the other side and started to be curious about He Yu¡¯s identity. This woman was short and fat, but she had a strong aura. He also heard that her brother was a millionaire with a net worth of tens of millions. He didn¡¯t know where she came from? However, that wasn¡¯t the main point. The most important thing was that he heard something from He Yu. It seemed that something had happened to Mu Xiaowan¡¯s family. After thinking for a while, Yang Guang pinched her little hand under the table and said in a low voice, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. Tell me if you have any difficulties. I¡¯ll help you!¡± ¡°Let¡¯s talk about it later!¡± Mu Xiaowan took a deep breath and did not say anything else. However, it was obvious that she was a lot more depressed. Yang Guang looked at her and thought that he was here to protect her, not to watch her being attacked by others. So, he looked up at He Yu and asked, ¡°Miss He, where are you from?¡± ¡°The provincial capital!¡± He Yu answered. Chen Bing¡¯s quick mouth opened again, ¡°Yuyu is the daughter of the richest person in the provincial capital, He Sanda!¡± ¡°Oh, I see!¡± Yang Guang immediately understood. Seeing that he was deep in thought, He Yu asked in puzzlement, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°Nothing!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°I just think that as long as a person is happy, it doesn¡¯t matter how much money he has, so I don¡¯t quite agree with Miss He¡¯s point of view!¡± ¡°Really? I don¡¯t think so. Instead, I think that a person must have money. As long as one has money, many things can be settled!¡± Seeing the disdain in Yang Guang¡¯s eyes, He Yu¡¯s heart also rose with a trace of displeasure. Yang Guang looked at her. ¡°Is that so? Unfortunately, your brother has money but he can¡¯t handle Xiaowan. You have money but you can¡¯t handle your own liver!¡± ¡°What?!¡± Hearing this, everyone present was stunned! He Yu was also stunned. She looked at him with her mouth wide open. ¡°You¡­ What do you mean by that?¡± ¡°What else could it mean? If I¡¯m not wrong, your liver disease has already reached a very serious stage. Even if it¡¯s not liver cancer, it¡¯s cirrhosis!¡± Yang Guang smiled and asked, ¡°Even if you have money, the effect of your treatment doesn¡¯t seem to be very good, right?¡± ¡°¡­¡± Everyone at the table was completely silent. When everyone saw the expression on He Yu¡¯s face, they knew that Yang Guang was right. While they were shocked, everyone could not help but secretly look at Yang Guang. They did not know how he found out about this problem. Even He Yu was a little surprised. The fat on her face trembled. ¡°How do you know so much?¡± ¡°I¡¯m a doctor. Your face is dark and your eyes are yellow. It¡¯s obviously a sign of liver disease. Moreover, you¡¯re so fat, but I don¡¯t think you¡¯ve been like this since you were young. That means there are other problems with your body!¡± Yang Guang said. When he said this, He Yu¡¯s expression changed again because Yang Guang was right. Not only did she have liver problems, but she also had gallbladder disease! She had traveled all over the country to treat her liver problem. She didn¡¯t know how many famous doctors she had visited, but no one could come up with an effective treatment. In order to survive, her family had already arranged for her to go to the United States next month to seek treatment from a doctor there. However, He Yu and her family did not know whether there was any hope at all. He Yu¡¯s original intention for coming to the small county was to see her classmates. If she went to the United States, it would be fine if she was cured, but if she was not cured, she might not be able to see everyone for the rest of her life. In the end, she did not expect that in this small county, this unremarkable village doctor would be able to see the problem in her body just by looking at her with his eyes. He did not even have to check her pulse! Therefore, after being shocked, He Yu hurriedly asked, ¡°It seems that you are indeed a doctor with some ability. Then, can you cure my illness? If there is hope, I am willing to pay a lot of money!¡± ¡°That is hard to say!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°I will put my ability aside for now. If I can cure you, won¡¯t I give you a good excuse that as long as you are rich, you can do whatever you want?¡± ¡°Huh¡­¡± He Yu did not expect Yang Guang to make such a statement to her, so she was stunned. After a moment of silence, she immediately said, ¡°I can do it without money. Anything you want, I can agree to it!¡± ¡°I want Xiaowan to give birth to a son for me in the future. Can you do it?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°¡­¡± He Yu was dumbfounded. Mu Xiaowan¡¯s face also turned red. She secretly pinched Yang Guang¡¯s thigh under the table! Yang Guang endured the pain and looked at He Yu who was speechless. ¡°That is impossible, right? That¡¯s why money isn¡¯t everything. Don¡¯t you agree?¡± He Yu¡¯s face was gloomy. She had to say that Yang Guang¡¯s words were right. Her own thoughts were simply untenable. Hence, she could only nod. ¡°You¡¯re right. I apologize for my previous words!¡± ¡°Mm, that¡¯s more like it!¡± Yang Guang nodded and continued, ¡°Although I don¡¯t know if you¡¯re sincere or you apologized because you wish to be treated, seeing that your attitude isn¡¯t bad, wait for me downstairs after lunch!¡± ¡°Ah? You¡¯re willing to help me treat my illness?¡± He Yu¡¯s face was full of surprise as she asked with her eyes wide open. ¡°A doctor¡¯s heart is like a parent¡¯s. Since we¡¯ve met, I don¡¯t find any reason not to help you.¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Moreover, you¡¯re Wan ¡®Er¡¯s classmate. If I don¡¯t give face to others, I¡¯ll have to take care of her!¡± Hearing this, Mu Xiaowan¡¯s heart warmed. She knew that Yang Guang was trying to gain respect for her, but she felt a little apprehensive in her heart, she moved closer to his ear and whispered, ¡°He Yu¡¯s illness must be something that many famous doctors are unable to cure. Can you really cure it?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s ear felt a little itchy as she blew the air into his ear. Following that, a certain nerve on his waist felt numb! However, he still endured this feeling and smiled at her. ¡°Of course. After all, they are only famous doctors. I, on the other hand, am a miracle doctor!¡± ¡°Err¡­¡± Mu Xiaowan was directly speechless and secretly rolled her eyes at him. The two of them were whispering in each other¡¯s ears. He Yu¡¯s heart was a little worried, so she hurriedly asked, ¡°Xiaowan, you won¡¯t stop Dr. Yang from treating me because of our previous conflict, right?¡± ¡°How can that be?¡± Yang Guang shrugged. ¡°Xiaowan told me that I must help you and I must not make any mistakes.. I must not embarrass her!¡± Chapter 66 - Angrily Left the Table Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio With Yang Guang¡¯s explanation, He Yu suddenly understood. The way she looked at Mu Xiaowan changed. Then, she immediately said with gratitude, ¡°Xiaowan, thank you!¡± ¡°You¡¯re welcomed. We are all classmates!¡± Mu Xiaowan said with a smile. She knew that this was all thanks to Yang Guang, so her heart was warm. The smile on her face was also very bright. She had promised to help He Yu take a look, but she did not have much confidence in her heart, so she wanted to ask Yang Guang how to treat her. But at this time, the engagement ceremony on the stage had already begun. The surroundings immediately quieted down as the music started playing. In fact, no one was watching the ceremony because everyone had different things on their minds. Yang Guang, on the other hand, was watching it with great interest. He felt that the man kneeling on one knee to give the girl a ring was very romantic, but he felt that it was a little strange to show off their love in public. Therefore, he thought to himself that if he were to propose in the future, he would definitely not be so ostentatious! However, in Mu Xiaowan¡¯s heart, she felt that this scene was very beautiful. She even secretly fantasized that if she were to be proposed to in the future, her boyfriend would have to do the same! However, a thought suddenly appeared in her heart. She could not help but turn her head and look at Yang Guang. She thought that Yang Guang would definitely not do that! After thinking about it, her heart trembled. Then, her eyes were filled with shock and her face immediately turned red! She had nothing to do with Yang Guang. How could she think of him proposing to her? This thought was simply too embarrassing! Although Mu Xiaowan had a shrewish personality, she was still a more traditional and conservative girl in her nature. Therefore, when she thought of this, she couldn¡¯t help but feel shy and quickly lowered her head! After the ceremony ended, with the host¡¯s blessing, the couple went down the stage to the back. The banquet began. The waiters served the dishes. Looking at the chicken, duck, and fish on the table, Yang Guang suddenly had an appetite. In the end, he picked up his chopsticks and ate two mouthfuls. When he found that everyone was looking at him, Yang Guang asked curiously, ¡°Why are you looking at me? Why aren¡¯t you eating?¡± ¡°Everyone doesn¡¯t have much of an appetite. The main reason why we¡¯re here today is not to eat, but to observe the ceremony!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°But we still have to eat. Aren¡¯t you guys hungry in the middle of the afternoon?¡± Yang Guang was a little speechless. Seeing that everyone was still not eating, they only ate some fruits and cold dishes, so he did not stand on ceremony. He opened his mouth and began to eat! The girls were reserved. Everyone looked at Yang Guang and felt that it was quite fun. If it was half an hour ago, Chen Bing and the others would have looked at him with disdain. But now it was different. He was able to judge He Yu¡¯s condition with his naked eye, everyone knew that Yang Guang had some real ability. So naturally, their attitude towards him changed. However, Wang Li was very unhappy at this moment because he felt that Yang Guang had stolen all the limelight, causing him to not have the chance to talk about his own business anymore! Now that he saw Yang Guang eating so ungracefully, he couldn¡¯t help but ridicule, ¡°He¡¯s from the mountains after all, he looks like he hasn¡¯t seen the world yet!¡± His voice wasn¡¯t loud, but the people at the table heard what he said, including Yang Guang. Yang Guang looked up and saw the disdain on Wang Li¡¯s face. He smiled and said, ¡°I really haven¡¯t seen much of the world. I just feel that many efforts were put in to serve the dishes on this table. It¡¯s a pity not to eat them!¡± ¡°Then you should eat some. It¡¯s best if you eat all of them!¡± Wang Li sneered. He thought to himself, ¡°I won¡¯t need any help from you, so I don¡¯t have to give you face. What¡¯s there to be afraid of!¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°It¡¯s impossible to eat all of them. I¡¯m not an elephant!¡± After saying that, he looked at Wang Li. ¡°Aren¡¯t you going to eat some? If you fail to start your business, you¡¯ll owe your ass. After you go to prison, you won¡¯t have the chance to eat such delicious food!¡± ¡°What nonsense are you talking about!¡± Hearing that, Wang Li was anxious. He immediately slammed the table and stood up. ¡°What right do you have to say that I will fail to start my business!¡± ¡°Just based on your magnanimity!¡± Yang Guang chuckled, put down his chopsticks, and picked up a tissue to wipe his mouth. ¡°No wonder Xiaowan looks down on you. Any smart woman would not find a petty man like you!¡± ¡°You, you dare to talk about me like that!¡± Wang Li was completely provoked. Fortunately, there was someone else in the middle, or else he would have wanted to fight with Yang Guang! It was a good thing too. Or else, he would have lost his face in front of everyone. Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°I¡¯m not slandering you. Ever since I came in with Xiaowan, the way you looked at me has always been full of anger after you found out that I was her boyfriend. This shows the problem!¡± ¡°It¡¯s fine if you¡¯re unwilling or angry. If you really like Xiaowan that much and see her happy, shouldn¡¯t you be happy?¡± Wang Li was rendered speechless by the question, and then his face quickly turned red! Seeing that everyone was looking at him as if they were watching a show, he couldn¡¯t accept it, so he simply waved his hand and left! ¡°See? I¡¯m not wrong, am I?¡± Yang Guang looked at the people on the table and asked with a smile. ¡°Wang Li is indeed a little narrow-minded!¡± Chen Bing said. He Yu nodded and said, ¡°Yeah, he¡¯s just too ego. Everyone knows this when he was in the university!¡± After a few words of discussion, everyone directly threw the matter of Wang Li leaving angrily to the back of their minds and didn¡¯t say anything else. From this, it could be seen that Wang Li was indeed quite a failure. His classmates of many years actually didn¡¯t take him seriously. The girls didn¡¯t eat much, just waiting for Yang Guang to be full. Half an hour later, when he was almost done eating, He Yu hurriedly asked, ¡°Dr. Yang, can you help me take a look now?¡± ¡°Let¡¯s go out first. There are too many people here, let¡¯s find a quiet place!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Sure, my car is very spacious, everyone can go in too!¡± He Yu immediately nodded. Thus, the group of people got up and left the banquet hall. At this time, the guests had all dispersed. There were many people in the hall. Yang Guang was holding Mu Xiaowan, they walked out of the restaurant together with He Yu and Chen Bing. However, just as they walked out, Yang Guang was about to ask where the car was when he saw two people rushing over from the side with shiny steel pipes in their hands! The girls cried out in alarm and quickly retreated. Yang Guang flashed in front of Mu Xiaowan to protect her. When he saw that the two people were coming for him, he immediately sneered and raised his leg to kick! With a bang, the first person was sent flying a few meters away. Yet, the steel pipe in the other person¡¯s hand had arrived! It was only 10 centimeters away from Yang Guang¡¯s head. Yang Guang raised his hand and directly grabbed the steel pipe! Initially, that person had used a lot of force, at least 70-80 kilograms. However, after being grabbed by Yang Guang, he was unable to smash it down! Seeing that the other party had used all his strength, and his face was flushed red, Yang Guang sneered, ¡°With such little ability, you want to sneak attack?¡± Chapter 67 - Healing Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang held onto the steel pipe with one hand, and his other hand was not idle either. He directly punched out, hitting the opponent¡¯s chest! This punch was not very strong. If he used enough strength, the opponent¡¯s sternum would definitely be shattered! Yang Guang did not want to hurt anyone, so he only used 50% of his strength. However, this was enough for that person to endure. With a muffled bang, the steel pipe in that person¡¯s hand loosened, and his entire person took a few steps back, sitting on the ground! These two ambushers were not stupid. Seeing that they were no match for Yang Guang, they immediately got up and ran away, disappearing in the blink of an eye! There were quite a few guests at the entrance of the restaurant. They could only watch helplessly as the scene just now happened. Adding it up, it only took about ten seconds for the battle to end! Therefore, the way everyone looked at Yang Guang changed! Chen Bing clicked her tongue and could not help but praise, ¡°What a powerful technique. I didn¡¯t know that your kung fu was so powerful!¡± ¡°It¡¯s not that I¡¯m powerful, it¡¯s that the other party is too weak!¡± Yang Guang, who was rarely humble, said with a smile. He Yu looked at his face and thought to herself, ¡°It seems that this young man is really not an ordinary person. I thought that Xiaowan¡¯s eyes were dazzled before, but now she knows that she has discerning eyes!¡± As for Mu Xiaowan, she was already used to Yang Guang¡¯s extraordinary skills and was not surprised. However, when she saw her classmates looking at Yang Guang with admiration, she felt a little self-satisfied. It was as if Yang Guang was really her boyfriend. The group of people came to the parking lot and saw He Yu¡¯s car. It was a large SUV. The body of the car was more than two meters tall, and the interior was very spacious. The seats were actually pure leather sofas! ¡°Wow, the car can be designed like this?¡± Yang Guang got into the car and immediately clicked his tongue like a country bumpkin. ¡°Because I¡¯m not feeling well, I chose this car. This model is often used by celebrities!¡± He Yu explained. ¡°Oh, it¡¯s amazing!¡± Yang Guang nodded. Although he liked this car very much, he felt that it had no practical use to him, so he just took a look. After sitting down, he saw that everyone was looking at him expectantly. Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°Alright, let me take a look at your condition first. If you need medical treatment, we can go to a pharmacy later!¡± ¡°Huh?¡± He Yu got the hint from his words again, so she asked, ¡°Could it be that the symptoms are relatively mild and can be treated without medication?¡± ¡°That¡¯s true. The last time I went to Yang Guang¡¯s house, I happened to meet a child who had acute appendicitis. Yang Guang almost cured it without much medication!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. When she said that, everyone was even more stunned. They looked at Yang Guang as if they had seen an alien! ¡°Alright, let¡¯s take a look at her condition first!¡± Yang Guang smiled and extended his hand. He Yu knew that he was going to take her pulse, so she quickly placed her wrist on it. Yang Guang closed his eyes to check, and the others immediately held their breaths. No one dared to speak. Through the energy of the Method of Divine Farmer, Yang Guang entered He Yu¡¯s limbs and bones. It was as if he could see through things, and he directly found the diseased areas in her body! The result was as expected. Not only was there a tumor on her liver, but there was also a large inflammation in her gallbladder! After understanding this, Yang Guang could not help but sigh in his heart. No matter how rich she was, it would be useless if she didn¡¯t have a good body. At the same time, he did not know if his energy could treat such a serious disease, so he could only try. He closed his eyes and focused. To others, it looked like he was checking her pulse, but in fact, he had already started to treat her. He Yu was sitting on the sofa when she suddenly felt a warm current in her body. She immediately moved her lips in surprise. However, she did not say anything after that. Instead, she gave everyone a look and leaned against the back of the sofa. Although everyone did not quite understand, no one said anything. They waited patiently. In the end, they waited for more than half an hour! Mu Xiaowan¡¯s heart ached when she saw the beads of sweat on Yang Guang¡¯s forehead! Fortunately, Yang Guang suddenly took a deep breath and released his hand when he opened his eyes. ¡°How is it?¡± Mu Xiaowan hurriedly asked. Seeing that she was more anxious than He Yu herself, Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°Of course it¡¯s nothing. I, the miracle doctor, will definitely cure the illness!¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Everyone present, including He Yu, was a little stunned. They looked at him in astonishment, ¡°You¡­ You actually cured my illness?¡± ¡°It¡¯s not completely cured. After you go back, you can go buy some medicine to ease the liver and gall. You¡¯ll be fine in a week or so. Your complexion will return to normal, and your body will gradually lose weight!¡± Yang Guang smiled and said. After feeling her body, she did not have that sluggish feeling from before. Instead, she had a sense of vitality that she had not felt for a long time. He Yu felt as if she had gained a new life, thus, she hurriedly said, ¡°Thank you, Miracle Doctor Yang. How much money do you want? I¡¯ll give it to you!¡± ¡°Not again!¡± Yang Guang smiled bitterly, he looked at her and said, ¡°I already said that it¡¯s not for money, and I didn¡¯t use any cost. I just helped you to recuperate. If you really want to thank me, you should thank your classmate, Xiaowan. If it wasn¡¯t for her, I wouldn¡¯t have saved you so easily!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Hearing that, He Yu hurriedly turned to Mu Xiaowan and said, ¡°Thank you, Xiaowan. By the way, I¡¯ll talk to my father about your family matters later. I¡¯ll definitely help you!¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need for that, right?¡± Mu Xiaowan was stunned and quickly said. ¡°No, I must help you this time. Our relationship was quite estranged before, but now I¡¯ve decided that you¡¯ll be my sister from now on!¡± He Yu laughed and reached out to hug Mu Xiaowan¡¯s shoulder. This woman had a domineering personality and had the forthright personality of a man. Now that she had just recovered from a serious illness, her mood was naturally even better! Mu Xiaowan stole a glance at Yang Guang and realized that he was also looking at her, so her heart trembled and she quickly lowered her head. When their gazes met, it was as if there was a spark. Yang Guang looked at her bashful appearance and thought to himself, ¡°You actually have such a time?¡± Then, he smiled and said, ¡°Alright, it¡¯s getting late. Miss He, don¡¯t be too excited. Remember to take good care of yourself when you go back. We¡¯re leaving!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t. Miracle Doctor Yang, you¡¯ve cured my illness. I have to thank you properly. Let¡¯s have dinner in the county tonight!¡± He Yu said. ¡°There¡¯s no need. It¡¯s not too late to have dinner after you¡¯ve completely recovered. Besides, I¡¯m very busy. I have to go back to the village!¡± Yang Guang said. Mu Xiaowan quickly nodded. ¡°Yes, Yang Guang still has a lot of things to do at home. I have to send him home!¡± He Yu could not persuade him to stay, so she could only say, ¡°Alright then. I¡¯ll definitely visit Miracle Doctor Yang again. I¡¯ll treat you to dinner then!¡± Yang Guang and Mu Xiaowan got out of the car, and then the two of them went to her car. As soon as she closed the car door, Mu Xiaowan said with a sincere face, ¡°Yang Guang, thank you for today!¡± Yang Guang looked at her.. ¡°Are you just saying that? Do you have any practical actions?¡± Chapter 68 - Scoundrel Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Looking at Yang Guang¡¯s evil smile, Mu Xiaowan could not help but feel angry! She did not expect a splendid show when he brought Yang Guang to the banquet, but unexpectedly, he gave her such a big surprise! Not only did he rebuke the people she did not like, but he also gained a lot of respect for her. Thinking of this, Mu Xiaowan thanked Yang Guang from the bottom of her heart. Otherwise, she wouldn¡¯t have told He Yu that she would personally send him home. However, Yang Guang returned to his nature when they got to the car, looking like a pervert. Even a fool would know what he was hinting at! Biting her lips, Mu Xiaowan glared at Yang Guang. ¡°Now that you¡¯re not my boyfriend, do you still trying to get any benefits?!¡± ¡°I haven¡¯t reached home yet, so I am still your boyfriend. Don¡¯t you dare to go back on your words?!¡± Yang Guang said. Mu Xiaowan was speechless, and her face immediately turned red. After a moment of silence, she said in a low voice, ¡°That¡¯s fine, but you have to close your eyes!¡± ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll close them!¡± When Yang Guang heard that she was going to reward him, he quickly squinted his eyes. He said that he would close his eyes, but in fact, he did not completely close them. He could still see Mu Xiaowan¡¯s shy and nervous expression. After the stalemate lasted for half a minute, Mu Xiaowan seemed to have made up her mind. She pouted her little mouth and moved closer! When she got closer, Mu Xiaowan subconsciously closed her eyes as she was shy. Anyway, she had already aimed at Yang Guang¡¯s cheek. She would give him a kiss on her cheek! However, she did not expect that a bad idea suddenly pop up in Yang Guang¡¯s mind when this bad boy saw her eyes were closed. He immediately turned his head around! And their lips touched on each other! Mu Xiaowan¡¯s body stiffened. She opened her eyes and saw that Yang Guang was looking at her, and their lips were still kissing! ¡°¡­¡± After being stunned for a few seconds, Mu Xiaowan came to her senses and quickly escaped from Yang Guang¡¯s lips. Then, she said angrily, ¡°You bad guy, we agreed to kiss on the cheek!¡± ¡°No, I just wanted benefits but I didn¡¯t say where to kiss!¡± Yang Guang laughed evilly and looked at her flushed cheeks. She had an indescribable cuteness. Then, when he saw Mu Xiaowan¡¯s angry eyes as if she was about to fall out with him, he quickly said, ¡°Sis, your lips are so sweet!¡± ¡°You!¡± Mu Xiaowan¡¯s anger was extinguished by the word ¡°sis¡±! Then, she gritted her teeth and glared at Yang Guang. ¡°Scoundrel!¡± Though she seemed to be scolding him, it was better to say that she was acting coquettishly! Yang Guang¡¯s heart was almost melted by this sentence. He immediately felt the taste of love! The numbness that came from his heart was too wonderful! Mu Xiaowan did not look at him anymore. She pouted and started the car. Then, she stepped on the accelerator and rushed out. She almost hit the car next to hers! ¡°Sister, slow down. I¡¯m still young. I don¡¯t want to die young!¡± Yang Guang said in fear. Mu Xiaowan was secretly happy and glared at him. ¡°Are you afraid of death too?¡± ¡°What do you mean? Who in the world isn¡¯t afraid of death?¡± Yang Guang said in a speechless manner. ¡°If you¡¯re afraid of death, you¡¯d better not provoke me in the future. Otherwise, if I can¡¯t stand you anymore one day, I¡¯ll really kill you!¡± Mu Xiaowan said angrily. Yang Guang thought that she said so because she was shy, so he didn¡¯t pay attention to her statement. He smiled and said, ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll be obedient in the future.¡± The car left the county town and drove towards Qingshan Village. The two didn¡¯t say much. After driving for a while, Yang Guang remembered what happened at the banquet, so he asked, ¡°By the way, Sister, is there something going on at home? What was He Yu trying to say?¡± ¡°Yup, she was right.¡± Mu Xiaowan had already recovered her composure. Hearing this, she sighed slightly, ¡°My father is in the medicinal herbs business. You know, a while ago, he bought a batch of medicinal herbs, but it was accidentally watered by the rain and the medicinal herbs became moldy. He lost a lot of money due to that.¡± ¡°Oh, that¡¯s not a big deal, right? It¡¯s just some payment for goods!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°No, that¡¯s not a small sum. It¡¯s more than 20 million yuan. Some of it was borrowed from the bank by my father. If we don¡¯t pay it back in time, the company might go bankrupt!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. Yang Guang understood and quickly comforted her, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, didn¡¯t He Yu say that she would help? Her family is so rich, they can definitely help you solve it!¡± However, Mu Xiaowan laughed bitterly, ¡°That¡¯s true, but it¡¯s not that simple. Let¡¯s wait and see!¡± Hearing the hidden meaning in her words, Yang Guang asked curiously, ¡°Why? He Yu has already agreed, would she go back on her word?¡± Mu Xiaowan shook her head, ¡°I don¡¯t think she would do that. It¡¯s just that 20 million yuan isn¡¯t hers, so I¡¯m afraid of complications.¡± ¡°It¡¯s fine. If her family doesn¡¯t help your father, then I¡¯ll think of a way for you!¡± Yang Guang said. Mu Xiaowan was stunned. ¡°You? Stop fooling around. 20 million yuan, not 2,000 yuan. How can it be that easy?¡± ¡°That¡¯s not necessarily true!¡± Yang Guang chuckled. ¡°Believe me, with my presence, any miracle can happen!¡± Seeing him being optimistic, Mu Xiaowan was amused. She couldn¡¯t help but laugh. ¡°You¡¯re so thick-skinned. You don¡¯t know how to be modest!¡± ¡°If I¡¯m really capable, why do I need to be modest?¡± Yang Guang laughed. With his statement, Mu Xiaowan¡¯s mood was much better. The two of them chatted and laughed as they returned to Qingshan Village. When they reached home, they saw that Wu Xiaolian had already returned. She was sitting at the door with the child in her arms. It was already three o¡¯clock in the afternoon. The hottest time of the day had just passed, and Yaya had already fallen asleep in her arms. Seeing this, Mu Xiaowan hurriedly lowered her voice and said, ¡°Sister-in-law, don¡¯t get up. I¡¯m just sending Yang Guang back. I¡¯m going back now!¡± ¡°Stay and let¡¯s have dinner together. I¡¯m going to prepare the dinner soon!¡± Wu Xiaolian said. ¡°No, I¡¯ll come again next time if I have time!¡± Mu Xiaowan smiled and turned to look at Yang Guang. ¡°I shall make my move first!¡± ¡°Okay, Sister, take it easy. Next time if you need my help, just give me a call ahead of time!¡± Yang Guang said. Mu Xiaowan stopped in her tracks. She thought to herself, ¡°I¡¯m not going to look for you. You¡¯re always taking advantage of me!¡± However, she didn¡¯t say anything. She quickly returned to the car and left. ¡°Yang Guang, help me carry Yaya. This child has been tossing and turning for a long time before sleeping. It¡¯s making me sweat all over!¡± Wu Xiaolian said. She was not in the mood to ask about Mu Xiaowan. It could be seen that she was really uncomfortable. After Yang Guang took the child, Wu Xiaolian rushed into the house. Yang Guang felt that it was too hot outside with the sleeping girl in his arms, so he followed her into the house. When he passed by Wu Xiaolian¡¯s door, he found that the door was not closed properly, revealing a gap. The person inside seemed to be changing her clothes, so he subconsciously stood still! It was all instinctive. His feet did not listen to his commands at all! Through the gap, Wu Xiaolian had already taken off her shirt and pants, leaving only underwear on her body! Her skin was snow-white while her figure was without a trace of fat. Her waist and thighs were simply too perfect! Yang Guang¡¯s heart was pounding, and he watched this scene with unblinking eyes, completely forgetting everything around him! Chapter 69 - Dress Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Wu Xiaolian didn¡¯t think too much about it. After taking off her sweaty clothes, she suddenly felt a wave of coolness. She was much more comfortable. She looked down at her underwear and pulled it up to take a whiff. She felt that it was a little sweaty, so she thought about it and put her hands behind her back. She wanted to undo her underwear. However, just as she unbuttoned the first button, she suddenly changed her mind. She took out clean clothes from the wardrobe and put on a vest and shorts. There was a set of underwear in the basin. She put those clothes she had taken off on top of it. Then, she carried the basin out of the door. At this time, Yang Guang had already fled back to his room. From the moment Wu Xiaolian picked up the basin, his heart tightened. Without saying a word, he darted back into the room. If she found out that he was peeping from outside, his sister-in-law might not be very angry, but the scene would definitely be very awkward, right? Yang Guang restrained his pounding heart and sat down. Yaya was placed on the bed, but the image of Wu Xiaolian was still lingering in his mind! In comparison, Xu Ling had a thin figure, which was more slender. As for his sister-in-law, she was plumper. However, she was not fat, but she had the unique charm of a mature woman! After comparing them in his mind for a long time, Yang Guang finally came to a conclusion. Both of them were the best among women. They could not be compared at all because there was no way to tell who was better! After letting his imagination run wild for a while, Yang Guang went out to the courtyard after seeing Yaya was sleeping soundly. At this moment, Wu Xiaolian had just come out of the shower. She felt very comfortable and her face was flushed. The two of them met face to face. Seeing her fair and tender thighs, Yang Guang could not help but swallow his saliva. When Wu Xiaolian saw this scene, she immediately blushed. However, she couldn¡¯t help but smile. She looked at Yang Guang¡¯s silly face and said, ¡°You¡¯re already a young man. Why didn¡¯t you faster find a girlfriend?!¡± ¡°Sister-in-law, don¡¯t be angry. It¡¯s not that I¡¯m lecherous. You¡¯re simply too beautiful!¡± Yang Guang said shamelessly. Wu Xiaolian was in a good mood because her mother¡¯s illness had already been alleviated by more than half. She was basically fine. And all of this was because of Yang Guang, so she did not feel anything even after hearing what he said, instead, she smiled and said, ¡°Lingling and Xiaowan, which one of them isn¡¯t beautiful? Hurry up and choose one to pursue properly, so you don¡¯t have to look at me in a daze all day long!¡± After saying that, she hugged the basin and turned around to return to her room. Looking at her graceful back, Yang Guang could not help but sigh in his heart. It was such a pity that his sister-in-law was so beautiful! Looking up at the sky, he couldn¡¯t help but think, ¡°Brother, Brother, you shouldn¡¯t have gone so early!¡± ¡°What are you looking at? Begging for rain?¡± Xu Ling¡¯s crisp voice was heard. Yang Guang lowered his head and saw her entering the courtyard. Her clothes were still the same. With a white shirt and blue jeans, she looked like a university student. Looking at her youthful and energetic ponytail, Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°No, I¡¯m just looking at the sky. Sister Ling, you¡¯re back so early today!¡± ¡°Yeah, I¡¯m going to the county town later, so I won¡¯t be back tonight,¡± Xu Ling said. Yang Guang was stunned when he heard that. ¡°Ah, why didn¡¯t you say so earlier? Xiaowan just left not long ago!¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay, there¡¯s a car coming to pick me up!¡± Xu Ling smiled and said. ¡°A car? A man or a woman?¡± Yang Guang quickly asked. Xu Ling looked at him and her eyes flashed. ¡°What? If it was a man, would you be jealous?¡± ¡°Of course!¡± Yang Guang did not deny it. He nodded and said, ¡°Not only will I be jealous, but I¡¯ll also be heartbroken to death!¡± ¡°Screw you!¡± Xu Ling rolled her eyes at him, then she smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s a pity that I can¡¯t see your heartbreak because the person who comes to pick me up is a woman. You even know her!¡± ¡°Is it Sister Yingxue?¡± Yang Guang understood immediately and quickly asked. ¡°You¡¯re pretty smart. It¡¯s her!¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Alright, then can I ask what are you guys going to do?¡± Yang Guang was full of curiosity and wanted to know the answer. Unfortunately, Xu Ling shook her head. ¡°I can¡¯t tell you anything. It has to be kept a secret!¡± After saying that, she walked briskly into the room and said at the same time, ¡°I have to change my clothes, or else I¡¯ll be late!¡± Seeing her enter the room, Yang Guang was confused. At this moment, Wu Xiaolian and Xu Ling¡¯s voices came from the room. The two of them were talking and laughing happily, but Yang Guang was even more depressed. He sat on the ground and his heart was in a mess! After a while, the sound of rustling footsteps came from behind. Then, Wu Xiaolian¡¯s voice came, ¡°What are you thinking about?¡± ¡°Nothing, just sitting here day¡­ daydreaming¡­¡± Yang Guang turned his head as he spoke and he saw Wu Xiaolian had changed her clothes. She was wearing a light blue dress with the hem of the dress reaching her calves. Ever since he knew her, Yang Guang had never seen her wearing a dress! Even though the dress was very conservative and did not reveal anything, it still surprised Yang Guang, so he was dumbfounded! Seeing him like this, Wu Xiaolian was still very happy. That meant she looked very beautiful in the dress! So she gently turned around. ¡°Am I beautiful?¡± ¡°Not only are you beautiful, but you look like a fairy descending to the mortal world!¡± Wu Xiaolian¡¯s hair was meticulously combed. She looked very pure and lovely. Outside, no one would have thought that she already had a one-year-old daughter! Therefore, Yang Guang was dumbfounded. Just as he was in a daze, Xu Ling also came out. She was wearing a skirt that had just reached her knees and a pair of white sandals. Her white and tender toes were exposed. This was a strappy denim skirt. She looked even more energetic and full of youthfulness! Only then did Yang Guang realize that something was wrong. Why did the two of them change into their dresses and even comb their hair? What was going on? Just as he was in a daze, Wu Xiaolian looked at Xu Ling. ¡°Let¡¯s not hide it from him, shall we?¡± Xu Ling nodded. ¡°Yup, we better let him know!¡± ¡°What do you mean? I don¡¯t understand!¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°All of us are going to the county today. We just didn¡¯t tell you!¡± Xu Ling said with a smile. Yang Guang was speechless and asked in astonishment, ¡°Why?¡± ¡°Because today is Sister Yingxue¡¯s birthday. Didn¡¯t she promise to treat you to a meal last time?¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Then why didn¡¯t you say so earlier? If I had known it, I wouldn¡¯t have come back!¡± Yang Guang was extremely speechless. Xu Ling smiled. ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter whether you come back or not. In any case, you won¡¯t be able to run away. Hurry up and go change your clothes!¡± ¡°Uh, no need. I¡¯m a man, so I won¡¯t need to dress up. Otherwise, everyone will look at me and not you guys!¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. ¡°Uh, you¡¯re really confident!¡± Xu Ling was speechless and rolled her eyes. At this moment, Yaya woke up at the right time and let out a bitter cry in the room. Wu Xiaolian quickly ran into the room and coaxed her as she changed the child¡¯s clothes. Taking advantage of this moment, Xu Ling said to Yang Guang, ¡°Tonight, you have to perform well!¡± Yang Guang was a little confused.. ¡°Why?¡± Chapter 70 - Were You Scared? Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xu Ling smiled mysteriously and did not answer Yang Guang¡¯s question. Instead, she said, ¡°When Sister Yingxue comes, she will tell you!¡± Seeing how cute her smile was, even if Yang Guang was unhappy, he could not say anything. Yaya did not lack clothes. With her mother and uncle doting on her, they would buy her new clothes every now and then. Therefore, she quickly wore a red jumpsuit and came out. Everyone was ready. All that was left was to wait for Qi Yingxue to arrive. Since they had estimated the time, a car stopped at the door in less than ten minutes. Qi Yingxue got out of the car and entered the courtyard. She looked at everyone and smiled. ¡°Are you guys ready?¡± ¡°Yes, Miss Qi. You have to spend money today. There¡¯s nothing at home that we can give to you. I picked some fresh vegetables for you!¡± Wu Xiaolian said. Qi Yingxue¡¯s eyes lit up. ¡°If it¡¯s anything else, I won¡¯t accept it. But I must keep your vegetables. They are good stuff!¡± A basket of vegetables was put into the trunk, and everyone got into the car. Xu Ling and Wu Xiaolian sat at the back. Yang Guang was pushed to the front passenger seat, and then the car set off. The customs of Qingshan Village had always been that honesty prevailed the whole village and the houses were not locked at night. So even if there was no one at home at night, there was nothing to worry about. With a happy mood, they set off on their journey to the county town. After driving for a while, the car arrived at a flat country road. Qi Yingxue said while driving, ¡°Yang Guang, I want to ask you for a favor tonight!¡± ¡°I¡¯ve been waiting for this!¡± Yang Guang smiled bitterly and said, ¡°Sister Ling deliberately kept me in suspense and didn¡¯t tell me!¡± ¡°Oh, it¡¯s actually nothing much. It¡¯s just that there will be an old man at dinner tonight. I¡¯d like to ask you to check his body to see if there are any hidden diseases or anything like that!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Oh, sure! That¡¯s easy!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Sister. I¡¯ll do a thorough check!¡± ¡°Then thank you in advance. The old man is very important to me. If there are no problems with his body, then I¡¯ll be relieved!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and said. Yang Guang smiled and didn¡¯t say anything. However, he thought to himself, ¡°So that¡¯s what happened. I thought that she wanted me to pretend to be her boyfriend!¡± After the incident with Mu Xiaowan on that day, he was a little addicted to being a boyfriend! Unfortunately, he was thinking too much this time. The car quickly entered the town. It was already evening. Qi Yingxue drove the car back to her restaurant and then led everyone upstairs. After arriving at the private room on the third floor, she sat down with everyone and continued, ¡°I¡¯ll be a little busy tonight. Some guests will be coming over, so please excuse me later. You can eat by yourself first!¡± ¡°It¡¯s alright. You just go ahead and do what you need to do!¡± Wu Xiaolian said hurriedly. Xu Ling also nodded. ¡°It¡¯s alright. You know a lot of people. We understand!¡± ¡°Okay. I¡¯ll come back to you after I¡¯m not busy anymore!¡± Qi Yingxue stood up and left the private room. Yang Guang looked at the time and asked, ¡°When are we going to eat?¡± ¡°Why? Are you hungry?¡± Xu Ling asked. ¡°Not really. I had a big meal at noon. My belly is still full of meat, so I didn¡¯t feel hungry.¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°That¡¯s good. We still need to wait for the meal to start because everyone hasn¡¯t arrived yet!¡± Xu Ling said with a smile. ¡°Huh?¡± Yang Guang was stunned and immediately understood. ¡°It can¡¯t be that there¡¯s still Mu Xiaowan, right?¡± ¡°Eh? Why are you so nervous? Didn¡¯t you see her this morning?¡± Xu Ling revealed a suspicious look on her face. She felt that Yang Guang¡¯s reaction was a little strange! Yang Guang knew that he had lost his composure, so he quickly chuckled. ¡°I¡¯m not nervous. I just have to ask this girl when she is here. If she already knew that there would be a banquet tonight, why would she send me home!¡± ¡°Then you can ask her. I don¡¯t know the answer anyway!¡± Xu Ling said. The two of them had just finished speaking when Mu Xiaowan¡¯s unhappy voice came from the door. ¡°You call me sister in front of me, but you actually dare to call me this girl behind my back?¡± Yang Guang turned his head and saw that she was waiting for him to look at her. He immediately laughed bitterly. ¡°You don¡¯t even make a sound when you enter?¡± ¡°If I did, I wouldn¡¯t be able to hear you talking about me behind my back!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes at him and sat down beside Xu Ling. She continued to say to Yang Guang, ¡°I didn¡¯t mean to hide it from you. I only received the notice after I sent you back!¡± ¡°No way. Aren¡¯t you two relatives? You don¡¯t even remember Sister Yingxue¡¯s birthday?¡± Yang Guang asked somewhat speechlessly. Mu Xiaowan looked at him and asked unhurriedly, ¡°Then let me ask you, do you remember Xiaolian¡¯s birthday? Do you remember Yaya¡¯s birthday?¡± Yang Guang really didn¡¯t know their birthdays! Having suffered a setback, Yang Guang could only sigh. ¡°You win, alright?¡± The two of them started to fight as soon as they met, but Wu Xiaolian watched with great interest. Her face was also full of smiles. However, after a few words of bickering, Mu Xiaowan ignored Yang Guang and directly turned around to play with Yaya. It was six o¡¯clock in the afternoon, and the waiters finally began to serve the dishes! It was also chicken, duck, and fish, but the dishes here were clearly much more exquisite than the lunch. Whether it was the color or the arrangement of the dishes, there was a sense of high-end grandeur. Yang Guang was like a country bumpkin. He was watching them closely and almost drooled. At this time, Wu Xiaolian couldn¡¯t help but glare at him. ¡°Yang Guang, stop looking. Your eyes are dropping out!¡± ¡°Exactly. It¡¯s not a beauty. Do you have to go so far?¡± Mu Xiaowan refused to let go of any opportunity to provoke Yang Guang and said. Yang Guang raised his head, looked at her and said, ¡°Of course. Beautiful women and delicacies are my favorites!¡± ¡°What about fine wine?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. ¡°Hehe, I¡¯m not interested in this. Keep it for you!¡± Yang Guang laughed. Mu Xiaowan narrowed her eyes and looked at him. ¡°Haha¡­ Are you scared? I still want to compete with you for another round of wine!¡± ¡°Stop fooling around. I don¡¯t want someone to drink until she is unconscious! She will puke miserably!¡± Yang Guang chuckled. He remembered that night when he lay on the sofa and saw her drink water with her naked upper body. He could not help but swallow his saliva! When Xu Ling saw this scene, she was stunned! Then, she asked in surprise, ¡°Speaking of Wan ¡®Er vomited after drinking. Why are you swallowing your saliva?¡± These words almost choked him to death! When Mu Xiaowan saw Yang Guang being defeated, she was happy. She laughed loudly without the grace of a lady! ¡°Why are you chatting so happily?¡± Just as they were talking, Qi Yingxue walked in with a smile. ¡°The birthday girl is here. Sister, quickly sit down and let the youngest person at the table sing a birthday song for you!¡± Mu Xiaowan stood up and said. When Yang Guang heard that, he would not allow her to trick him, so he pointed at Yaya and said, ¡°Let her sing? Stop fooling around. Yaya doesn¡¯t know how to speak yet!¡± ¡°That¡¯s why she¡¯s not included. The youngest one will sing!¡± Mu Xiaowan tilted her head and said. Yang Guang thought, ¡°What a trap..¡± Chapter 71 - There Was a Problem with the Medicine Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang thought to himself, ¡°With my lousy voice, won¡¯t I scare the ladies at the table when I sing? Fortunately, Qi Yingxue spoke at this time. She looked at the crowd and said with a smile, ¡°Forget about singing. Everyone, please eat first. I¡¯m here to ask Yang Guang to go out!¡± ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked curiously. ¡°Well, Yang Guang¡¯s medical skills are so superb. I want him to help Uncle Chen take a look!¡± Qi Yingxue said. Mu Xiaowan obviously knew about Uncle Chen, so she quickly stuck out her tongue and said, ¡°Okay. Then go quickly!¡± Yang Guang stood up and went out. He followed Qi Yingxue and asked as they walked, ¡°Sister, who is Uncle Chen?¡± ¡°My elder. He is also a well-known figure in our county. I¡¯ll tell you in detail later!¡± Qi Yingxue said. While they were talking, the two of them had already arrived at the door of another private room. They knocked on the door, and after hearing that they were invited in, Qi Yingxue pushed the door open and entered. Yang Guang followed behind. After entering, he found that this private room was very big. There was a sofa. At this moment, a white-haired old man was sitting there. There were a few people around him. It seemed that those people respected him and were chatting with him. ¡°Uncle Chen, the Yang Guang that I told you about is here!¡± Qi Yingxue said with a smile. Everyone¡¯s eyes turned over and were immediately stunned. Although they knew that Qi Yingxue was going to bring a doctor over to take Old Chen¡¯s pulse, no one had expected that it would be a young man who did not even have a beard! It was said that those who did not have any hair on his mouth could not handle things well. This young man knew how to treat patients? Seeing the doubt in everyone¡¯s eyes, Qi Yingxue quickly said, ¡°Everyone, don¡¯t worry. Although this younger brother of mine is young, his medical skills are very good. Otherwise, I wouldn¡¯t have introduced him to Uncle Chen!¡± ¡°Since that¡¯s the case, then I¡¯ll have to trouble you to help me take a look!¡± Chen Zhiyuan nodded and said softly. Seeing that the old man had agreed, Qi Yingxue¡¯s heart relaxed and she quickly glanced at Yang Guang. Yang Guang knew what she was thinking. He nodded and went to the sofa. The people surrounding Chen Zhiyuan sensibly retreated and gave up their seats. After sitting down, Yang Guang put two fingers on Chen Zhiyuan¡¯s wrist and focused on checking. There was complete silence in the room. No one spoke. In less than a minute, Yang Guang released his hand. ¡°Old Chen¡¯s health is not bad. There¡¯s no big problem!¡± When everyone heard that, some of them heaved a sigh of relief, while some secretly rolled their eyes in their hearts! In the first place, the old man did not have any illness. If Qi Yingxue insisted on a checkup to express her filial piety, wouldn¡¯t that be a waste of time? By doing so, Qi Yingxue would be trying to curry favor with the old man! Just as some of them were thinking this in their hearts, Yang Guang continued, ¡°But just because there¡¯s no problem now doesn¡¯t mean there won¡¯t be a problem in the future!¡± Everyone was stunned. Chen Zhiyuan also frowned and looked at him as he asked, ¡°Kid, what do you mean by this?¡± ¡°You¡¯ve been taking some vitality-replenishing medicine recently, right?¡± Yang Guang did not answer directly but asked a strange question. Chen Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment before he nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right!¡± He was secretly puzzled. Only he and the driver knew that he was taking the tonic. How did this young man figure it out? Could it be that he really had very good medical skills? After receiving confirmation, Yang Guang nodded, then, he said, ¡°As a person grows old, there¡¯s no problem for him to replenish his vitality. But I suggest that you go back and check those herbs to see if there¡¯s black false hellebore inside. This thing is not easy to recognize. It looks like a thin black tea leaf. There shouldn¡¯t be many of them. If you look carefully, you should find it!¡± ¡°Oh, why are you looking for this thing?¡± Chen Zhiyuan asked. ¡°It¡¯s common sense to take a normal tonic to nourish the body. However, there might be 18 adverse reactions after the black false hellebore encounters the red sage. That would be life-threatening!¡± Yang Guang said. Seeing that everyone was shocked, he continued, ¡°Fortunately, the medicine Old Chen took was taken in multiple small doses. It¡¯s not harmful to the body. However, if it¡¯s taken for a long time, it will still endanger life!¡± ¡°It¡¯s that serious?¡± Chen Zhiyuan narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice. ¡°This kid may be talking nonsense. The medicine that Old Chen bought was from the best pharmacies. He found an old Chinese medicine doctor that he was familiar with to prescribe them. How could he not know the side effects?¡± Someone said. Yang Guang nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. What you said makes sense. So I suggest that Old Chen go back and find the evidence first. After he finds it, he should investigate who did it!¡± Chen Zhiyuan pondered for a moment and looked at Yang Guang. ¡°What if the medicine I took doesn¡¯t have any black false hellebore in it?¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°That possibility is zero. Your physical fitness is very good, but there is already a preliminary accumulation of toxins in your liver!¡± ¡°Kid, think carefully. You have to be responsible for saying such things!¡± The person who spoke just now shouted loudly! Yang Guang glanced at him. ¡°Of course I know. You don¡¯t have to remind me!¡± After saying that, he added, ¡°But I also have to remind you that you¡¯re certain that this isn¡¯t true before you check the medicinal herbs, so if you find the black false hellebore later, how are you going to explain it?¡± When that person heard that, his eyes immediately widened and he became mute. When he saw Chen Zhiyuan looking at him, he immediately waved his hand. ¡°Old Man, I don¡¯t have any other intentions. I just feel that with your prestige, no one will harm you!¡± ¡°Yes, I understand!¡± Chen Zhiyuan remained calm and nodded. ¡°How about this, Yingxue, you make a trip to my house to get the medicine. The Chinese medicine is in the cabinet in the living room!¡± ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll go now!¡± Qi Yingxue nodded and glanced at Yang Guang. She wanted Yang Guang to go with her. However, Yang Guang shook his head. ¡°I can¡¯t go. If I go with you, even if we find the black false hellebore when we come back, people will say that I put it in midway!¡± Hearing this, Chen Zhiyuan laughed. ¡°Young Man, you¡¯re thoughtful enough. But don¡¯t worry. Yingxue is my most trusted junior. With her around, you won¡¯t have the chance to put that thing in!¡± Hearing this, Yang Guang shrugged his shoulders. ¡°Alright then. I¡¯ll follow Sister Yingxue for a trip. Just treat it as an escort!¡± After leaving the private room, seeing Qi Yingxue¡¯s hurried footsteps, Yang Guang chased after her and asked, ¡°Sister, why are you so nervous?¡± ¡°I believe in your medical skills. I believe that something was added to Uncle Chen¡¯s medicine. But do you know what this means?¡± Qi Yingxue asked as she walked. ¡°It means that someone is trying to harm him!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°That¡¯s right. If that¡¯s the case, things will be more complicated!¡± Qi Yingxue gritted her teeth and quickened her pace. After getting into the car and leaving the restaurant, Yang Guang continued to ask, ¡°It seems that the old man really trusts you. He doesn¡¯t allow others to get the medicine!¡± ¡°I call him Uncle Chen, but since I was three years old, I grew up in his house. He is just like my father!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Then no wonder!¡± Yang Guang nodded. Only then did he understand why Qi Yingxue was so anxious.. Chapter 72 - Yuan Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After driving for a short distance, Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue arrived at a residential area in less than ten minutes. The license plate was automatically recognized and they entered the main gate. After taking a few turns, they arrived. After getting out of the car and looking at the two-story villa in front of him, Yang Guang clicked his tongue. ¡°This old man is quite rich!¡± ¡°The house belongs to the state!¡± Qi Yingxue said this and pressed the doorbell. Before Yang Guang could ask, the door had already opened. A middle-aged woman came out. When she saw Qi Yingxue, she immediately smiled and said, ¡°Xiaoxue is back!¡± ¡°Yes, Aunty Lian, I¡¯m here to help Uncle Chen get some things!¡± After saying that, she went straight into the house and came to the living room. The decoration of the house was antique. There were a lot of calligraphy, paintings, and porcelain in the cabinets on the wall. Yang Guang did not recognize these things and looked at them curiously. Qi Yingxue quickly found the bag of medicine and was about to leave with it. Aunt Lian looked at it and quickly asked, ¡°Xiaoxue, what are you doing?¡± ¡°Nothing. I¡¯m going to boil the medicine!¡± Qi Yingxue did not say anything and left immediately. The whole process took less than a minute. Soon, she drove away from the community. ¡°Sister, I¡¯m getting more and more curious. What exactly does Old Chen do?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Uncle Chen works in the province, but he has already retired for a few years!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°I see!¡± Yang Guang immediately understood. It looked like Chen Zhiyuan¡¯s position was not low. Otherwise, how could he have such prestige? Seeing Qi Yingxue¡¯s nervous expression, Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°Sis, don¡¯t be so tense. I¡¯m here!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Qi Yingxue was indeed relieved when she heard that. Then, she looked at him and said, ¡°No matter what, I thank you!¡± Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°Look at what you said. Isn¡¯t this what I should do?¡± Soon, they returned to the restaurant. When they went upstairs to the private room, there was already one more person in the room. This was an old man with a goatee. He looked to be in his sixties, about the same age as Chen Zhiyuan. ¡°Old He, you¡¯re here too!¡± Qi Yingxue went up to greet him. Old He nodded. ¡°Yes, your Uncle Chen called me and sent someone to fetch me. I have no other choice but to come!¡± ¡°If you don¡¯t come, I¡¯ll have to go to your house myself!¡± Chen Zhiyuan smiled, his expression imposing without anger. Then, he said to Qi Yingxue, ¡°Xiaoxue, give the medicine to Old He. He prepared it for me. If there really is a medicinal herb called black false hellebore in it, I¡¯ll see how he explains it!¡± ¡°Black false hellebore?¡± Old He was stunned when he heard that. He turned to look at Chen Zhiyuan. ¡°Old Chen, are you kidding me? I¡¯ve been a doctor for forty years. Don¡¯t I know about the eighteen side effects?¡± ¡°Let¡¯s see. This young man said that there¡¯s such thing in your medicine!¡± Chen Zhiyuan said with a smile. ¡°¡­¡± Old He raised his head and glanced at Yang Guang. When he saw that it was a young man, he was immediately speechless! However, he still opened the medicine bag and rummaged through it. Very soon, Old He¡¯s fingers trembled, and his entire body trembled as well! Seeing this scene, everyone¡¯s hearts were hanging in the air. Chen Zhiyuan narrowed his eyes. ¡°Old He, have you found the black false hellebore?¡± ¡°How¡­ How could this be?¡± Old He¡¯s body trembled violently. He raised his head and looked at Chen Zhiyuan. ¡°Old Chen, you and I have known each other for thirty years. Don¡¯t tell me you suspect me of harming you?¡± ¡°Of course not!¡± Chen Zhiyuan smiled and patted him on the shoulder. ¡°If I really suspect you, I won¡¯t invite you here. It will be the police who will come to find you!¡± ¡°Then what¡¯s going on?¡± Old He¡¯s face was full of confusion. He looked at the medicinal herbs and then looked at him. ¡°Don¡¯t worry about it. I¡¯ll check it out!¡± Chen Zhiyuan smiled and looked up at Yang Guang. ¡°Young Man, you¡¯re really good!¡± Yang Guang was looking proud at the side. He chuckled and said, ¡°It¡¯s nothing. It¡¯s just a small trick!¡± ¡°How did you know that there was black false hellebore in this medicine?¡± Asked Old He. ¡°He checked my pulse!¡± Said Chen Zhiyuan. Old He was stunned. Then, he was dumbfounded. ¡°How is that possible!¡± ¡°It¡¯s useless even if you don¡¯t believe it. He has indeed found the problem!¡± After Chen Zhiyuan said that, he turned around and said to a young man in black behind him, ¡°Mr. Li, go home and take a look. If I¡¯m not wrong, the auntie at home might have already left!¡± ¡°Got it!¡± Mr. Li said that and immediately left with quick steps. ¡°Uncle Chen, do you think that Aunty Lian did it?¡± Qi Yingxue understood and quickly asked. Chen Zhiyuan smiled. ¡°Other than you and Mr. Li, no one else in the family can touch my medicine cabinet. Who else could it be other than her?¡± Qi Yingxue still found it hard to accept. ¡°But Aunty Lian has been working at home for ten years. Why would she do that?!¡± ¡°Everything happens for a reason. We¡¯ll understand when we find the person!¡± Chen Zhiyuan sighed and leaned back in his chair. He looked exhausted. ¡°Old He, you stay with me. The rest of you may go out. I want to rest for a while.¡± With the order to leave, everyone dispersed. Yang Guang was about to leave with Qi Yingxue when Chen Zhiyuan opened his eyes. ¡°Xiaoxue, thank Dr. Yang for me!¡± ¡°Got it!¡± Qi Yingxue nodded and left with Yang Guang. When they were outside, she didn¡¯t say anything. She just reached out and held Yang Guang¡¯s hand! Yang Guang was stunned by her initiative to hold his hand. Then, his heart trembled! Following that, Qi Yingxue did not go to the private room. Instead, she pulled him towards the direction of the office. Yang Guang was puzzled in his heart. What did she mean? She wouldn¡¯t be willing to give her body to him just because of such a small matter, right? Then, he cursed himself in his heart. What kind of filthy thought was this? He should not expect her to return a favor. He had even forgotten what his grandfather had said! He was pulled into the office in a daze. After entering the door, Qi Yingxue released her hand and looked at Yang Guang with a serious expression. ¡°Thank you for today¡¯s matter!¡± ¡°Sister, the word ¡®thank you¡¯ isn¡¯t worth much anymore!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°You¡¯ve already acknowledged me as your younger brother, so it¡¯s only right for me to do something for you, right?¡± ¡°Alright, if you put it that way, I won¡¯t stand on ceremony with you anymore!¡± After saying that, Qi Yingxue turned around and went into the room. A moment later, she took out a bundle of cash. ¡°Take this!¡± That bundle of cash was 10 stacks of big notes, a total of 100,000 yuan! When he saw this, Yang Guang¡¯s eyes widened and he couldn¡¯t even speak properly. ¡°What¡­ What do you mean?¡± ¡°This is for you. Whether it¡¯s a thank-you fee or a gift for you to marry a wife, if you treat me as your sister, you have to keep it!¡± Qi Yingxue said seriously. ¡°Uh¡­¡± Yang Guang thought to himself if this was even possible? To marry a wife? What if he wanted to marry her? Would he return the money to her when the time comes? Putting aside the messy thoughts that popped up in his mind, Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°Sister, this money is too much. I can¡¯t accept it!¡± ¡°Just take it. Don¡¯t be so polite!¡± Qi Yingxue took the money and pushed it directly into Yang Guang¡¯s arms. Yang Guang felt that it was inappropriate and pushed it back again. ¡°It¡¯s not being polite. I really can¡¯t take it!¡± ¡°If you don¡¯t take it, then you are not treating me as your elder sister!¡± Qi Yingxue pushed it over again. ¡°You will still be my sister even if I don¡¯t take it!¡± Yang Guang pushed it over again. After pushing it at each other for some time, Qi Yingxue loosened her grip and the money fell. However, Yang Guang¡¯s momentum of pushing it over was still there, so he slapped her chest in an instant.. Chapter 73 - Hangover Medicine Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The room instantly quieted down, and both of them were stunned. Yang Guang¡¯s body stiffened, and he could still feel the softness with his palm. He was stunned for a few seconds, and when he saw Qi Yingxue¡¯s face instantly turn red, he hurriedly withdrew his hand! Then, like a child who had made a mistake, he hurriedly lowered his head. ¡°Sis, I¡­ I didn¡¯t do it on purpose!¡± Qi Yingxue revealed a helpless expression on her face. She calmed herself down and said, ¡°It¡¯s okay, I know!¡± After saying that, she endured the burning sensation on her face and bent down to pick up the money on the ground. ¡°Hurry up and take it, or else I¡¯ll really be angry!¡± ¡°Alright then.¡± Yang Guang knew that he had to take it, so he took the bundle of money. The stack of 100,000 yuan was 20 centimeters high. He weighed it in his hand and raised his head to ask, ¡°Sis, do you have any plastic bags here? It won¡¯t look good if I hold it like this!¡± ¡°I¡¯ll look for it for you!¡± The blush on Qi Yingxue¡¯s face had yet to fade away when she heard that. She immediately turned around and entered the room. It took a little longer this time. She only came out after a few minutes. She held a black cloth bag in her hand. It was the kind of gift bag for clothes. ¡°This is better. You might drop the money with a plastic bag!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Yang Guang nodded. Seeing that her expression had returned to normal as if what had just happened had never happened, he smiled and said, ¡°Then let¡¯s go to my sister-in-law¡¯s private room?¡± ¡°You go first. I still have to take care of the other guests. I¡¯ll look for you guys later!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Alright.¡± Yang Guang smiled and the two of them went out together. After they separated, he still couldn¡¯t hold it in. He lowered his head and looked at his palm. He thought to himself, ¡°What¡¯s going on recently? My luck with the ladies seems to be getting better recently?¡± When he returned to the private room, he saw that Mu Xiaowan and Xu Ling were already drinking. Both of their faces were red! Seeing that Yang Guang had returned, Mu Xiaowan looked at him and asked unhappily, ¡°Why did you only come back now?¡± ¡°I was delayed by something!¡± Yang Guang sat down and saw that Wu Xiaolian was coaxing Yaya to sleep. It seemed that she had eaten enough, so he asked, ¡°Sister-in-law, are we really not going back tonight?¡± ¡°Yes, Xiaowan has already arranged a room. We will go to the hotel to stay later!¡± Wu Xiaolian said. ¡°That¡¯s good too!¡± Yang Guang nodded. He thought to himself that after sister-in-law married into his family, she had rarely entered the county town or stayed in a hotel. It would be good to experience it on that day. Thinking of this, he turned to look at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°Thank you!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t be happy too early. I have booked a room for Sister-in-law, but not for you. Where are you staying tonight? Think of a place to go yourself!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes at him. ¡°Hehe, it¡¯s okay. Just take care of my sister-in-law. I have a place to go!¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. Mu Xiaowan was stunned. Then, she seemed to have thought of something. ¡°Are you going to the Internet cafe?¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Don¡¯t worry about it. I won¡¯t go missing!¡± ¡°No, you have to tell me. Otherwise, I¡¯ll follow you wherever you go today!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°Why?¡± Yang Guang was a little speechless. He looked at her blushing face and was very puzzled. ¡°Hmph, you men won¡¯t behave when you enter the city. I¡¯m afraid that if you do bad things, you will be arrested by the police. How embarrassing!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°Uh, to think that you can think of it!¡± Yang Guang could not believe what she said. Was this girl drunk? How could she say such things about him! Xu Ling could not help but burst into laughter. She said to Mu Xiaowan, ¡°Alright, don¡¯t spout nonsense, and stop fooling around!¡± After saying that, she said to Yang Guang, ¡°Xiaowan also booked a room for you. She was just teasing you just now!¡± Yang Guang laughed. ¡°Is that so? That¡¯s more like it!¡± When Mu Xiaowan heard that, she looked up at Xu Ling. ¡°Sister, you really know how to be a good person. It seems like you love Yang Guang a lot!¡± ¡°Ah, what nonsense are you talking about? If you keep on talking nonsense, I¡¯m not talking to you anymore!¡± Xu Ling¡¯s face turned even redder and she glared at her directly! Mu Xiaowan chuckled and said, ¡°Okay, okay, okay, I won¡¯t say anymore!¡± After saying that, she raised her wine glass and looked at Yang Guang. ¡°You¡¯re back so late. Shouldn¡¯t you be punished with three glasses of wine?¡± ¡°Sister, your tongue is almost swollen from drinking. Do you still want to compete with me in drinking? Are you not going home tonight?¡± Yang Guang asked helplessly. ¡°That¡¯s right. I¡¯m not going home anyway. I want to sleep with Yaya tonight. Sister-in-law has agreed!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°Please don¡¯t. I¡¯m afraid you¡¯ll vomit on Yaya!¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and grabbed her wrist without holding back. After checking, the alcohol concentration in this girl¡¯s body was too high now. If she drank another cup, she would collapse! Therefore, he quickly said, ¡°Little Drunkard, you really can¡¯t drink anymore!¡± With Mu Xiaowan¡¯s temper, the more he tried to stop her, the more energetic she became! Therefore, she shook off Yang Guang¡¯s hand and stood up with her hands on her waist. Just as she was about to speak loudly, she remembered that Yaya had already fallen asleep. Then, she lowered her voice and said, ¡°Aren¡¯t you a doctor? Can¡¯t you cure it if I drink too much? If you can¡¯t even solve this, how can you be called a doctor?¡± ¡°¡­¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and laughed bitterly. He remembered that there was indeed a prescription for hangover in the Method of Divine Farmer, so he nodded and said, ¡°Okay, since you said so, then drink freely. I promise you won¡¯t do what you did last time!¡± ¡°That¡¯s more like it!¡± Mu Xiaowan glared at him and sat down to raise her glass. ¡°Come, punish yourself with three glasses. I¡¯ll drink with you!¡± ¡°Sigh!¡± Yang Guang sighed and poured himself a glass of wine. He raised his head and drank it. He was at his wit¡¯s end. It was fine when he faced the gentle Xu Ling, but when he faced this girl, he always felt helpless. After drinking one glass, his entire body began to heat up. Yang Guang poured himself another glass. ¡°That¡¯s enough. This is white wine. Can you drink it?¡± Xu Ling asked worriedly. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Sis. At most, I¡¯ll drink the hangover medicine later!¡± After Yang Guang finished speaking, he raised his head and drank the second glass. Mu Xiaowan applauded lightly, but Xu Ling sighed helplessly. She knew that these two were at loggerheads. It was as if they were on steroids. It was useless to persuade anyone, so she might as well just let them be! After drinking the third glass, Yang Guang¡¯s eyes were a little dazed. However, he was still conscious. He looked at Xu Ling and asked, ¡°Sis, do you have a pen and paper?¡± ¡°Yes, what do you want?¡± Xu Ling asked as she opened her handbag. Mu Xiaowan interjected at the right time, ¡°Do you want to leave a will?¡± ¡°Bah, I want to write out the prescription before I drink too much. Otherwise, both of us will be in trouble!¡± Yang Guang glared at her, took the pen and paper, and wrote it down. Then, he took out some money from the bundle of money and staggered to the door. After calling for the waiter, Yang Guang passed the paper and money to the waiter. He smiled apologetically and said, ¡°Do me a favor. Buy the medicine on this for me. The rest of the money is for your hard work.¡± The money was about seven to eight hundred dollars. The waiter was stunned when he saw it. He quickly stammered, ¡°Sir, you don¡¯t have to be so polite. You are VIPs. If there¡¯s anything you need, we can do it for you!¡± ¡°That¡¯s even better. You have to listen to your distinguished guests. Take this money as a tip for running errands!¡± Yang Guang did not say much. He stuffed the money into the waiter¡¯s hands and returned to the private room. As soon as he sat down, Mu Xiaowan asked, ¡°Hey, why is there so much money in your bag? Where did you go just now?¡± Chapter 74 - He Drank too Much Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang smiled. ¡°I did someone a small favor. This is my wages!¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Mu Xiaowan did not have much of a reaction, but Wu Xiaolian and Xu Ling were stunned. Then, they asked at the same time, ¡°Why is there so much?¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t ask for it. Sister Yingxue insisted on giving it to me!¡± Yang Guang shrugged his shoulders and brushed past the incident where he accidentally touched her chest. He gave a rough account of what happened. After listening to him, the ladies were all a little surprised. Mu Xiaowan even said, ¡°Yang Guang, you¡¯re really awesome. You indirectly saved Old Chen¡¯s life!¡± ¡°It¡¯s not that serious. As time passes, Old Chen will feel unwell. He can also find out if he goes for a checkup!¡± Yang Guang laughed. He did not really take this matter to heart, but what Yang Guang did not know was that because the medicine was mixed with other things, Chen Zhiyuan was furious. After some investigation, he actually found out a lot of things that could not be exposed in the light! At this moment, everyone was eating, drinking, and chatting in the private room. Unknowingly, it was already nine o¡¯clock in the evening. Yang Guang and Mu Xiaowan were competing once again, and both of them drank a lot of white wine. Fortunately, Yang Guang bought the hangover medicine. Using the excuse of going to the toilet, he got more than ten big pills and swallowed some of them first. After some thoughts, he returned to the private room and forced Mu Xiaowan to eat them. Although Mu Xiaowan struggled with all her might and insisted that they were not good things and Yang Guang did not have good intentions. Unfortunately, it was useless to resist. She was simply no match for Yang Guang¡¯s powerful strength. Mu Xiaowan waited until the hangover medicine entered her stomach and the alcohol gradually dissipated. Only then did Mu Xiaowan calm down. However, under the persuasion of Xu Ling and Wu Xiaolian, she still restrained herself a lot and did not continue to compete with Yang Guang in drinking. It was past nine o¡¯clock when Qi Yingxue finally finished her work and came to the private room. Then, Xu Ling asked the waiter to deliver the prepared cake and they had a simple candle-blowing ceremony. Qi Yingxue considered that Wu Xiaolian was still carrying the child, so she said to everyone, ¡°Let¡¯s call it a night. Send Sister-in-law to the hotel to rest first. If you haven¡¯t had enough fun, let¡¯s drink some red wine in the room.¡± ¡°Okay, okay, I agree!¡± Mu Xiaowan was the first to raise both hands in agreement. Seeing that it was getting late and the restaurant staff still had to finish tidying up before they could get off work, Xu Ling and Yang Guang nodded in agreement. Therefore, everyone left together. After going downstairs, they crossed the road and arrived at the hotel where they stayed last time. After going upstairs, they came to the door of the room. Mu Xiaowan threw a card to Yang Guang. ¡°Your room is next door. Go and sleep there. You¡¯re not needed here anymore!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Yang Guang was a little speechless. Was she kicking him away just like that? At this moment, Qi Yingxue smiled and said, ¡°If you¡¯re not sleepy, come and chat with us. The night is still young anyway!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Of course, Yang Guang did not want to go back to his room alone. It would be great to be with a few beauties! So he quickly nodded and rushed into the room without saying anything! ¡°Did you see that? This guy is so happy that we can¡¯t even see his eyes!¡± Mu Xiaowan pouted and said. Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling looked at each other and felt a little speechless at the same time. However, they didn¡¯t say anything and then everyone entered the room together. Wu Xiaolian carried Yaya into the bedroom and only came out after settling her down. At this time, Mu Xiaowan had already called the front desk and asked them to send some snacks and drinks up. The waiter arrived a few minutes later. ¡°I¡¯m very happy today. Normally, I don¡¯t drink, but today is an exception. I¡¯ll drink with everyone!¡± Qi Yingxue raised a glass of red wine and said with a smile. Among the crowd, only Wu Xiaolian did not drink because she had to feed the baby. The rest of the people poured red wine. However, Yang Guang said at this moment, ¡°It¡¯s your right to drink as much as you want but let me say this first. I¡¯ve already used up the hangover medicine. If any of you drink too much, I won¡¯t care!¡± ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter if you don¡¯t care!¡± Mu Xiaowan glared at him. She raised her head and drank all the wine in her glass! ¡°Did you grow up in a wine vat when you were young?¡± Yang Guang asked with a puzzled look. ¡°Although it¡¯s not, it¡¯s about the same!¡± Mu Xiaowan smiled proudly. ¡°Didn¡¯t I tell you last time? I¡¯ve been drinking since I was young!¡± ¡°This isn¡¯t good. It¡¯ll hurt your nerves!¡± Yang Guang said. Mu Xiaowan looked at him. ¡°Come on, what¡¯s wrong with me now? I¡¯m very healthy!¡± Yang Guang didn¡¯t say anything and pointed at his own head. Knowing his meaning, Mu Xiaowan immediately became anxious. ¡°Okay, do you think there¡¯s something wrong with my brain? Believe it or not, I¡¯ll beat you up!¡± ¡°Okay, stop fooling around!¡± Qi Yingxue revealed a helpless expression on her face. She was the only one who was older here. When she saw the two young people arguing with each other, she was speechless and felt that it was very funny. However, after a few glasses of red wine, Mu Xiaowan gradually became obedient. The alcohol from before had not completely subsided. Now that she had drunk red wine that had a strong aftershock, she suddenly waved her hand. ¡°Alright, I won¡¯t drink anymore. Otherwise, it won¡¯t be good if I really vomit on Yaya!¡± ¡°It¡¯s alright. I¡¯ll watch out for her!¡± Wu Xiaolian said. At this point, she could not help but yawn. Seeing this situation, Qi Yingxue quickly said, ¡°It¡¯s getting late. Everyone, let¡¯s rest!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Xu Ling nodded. Thinking that she still had things to do when she went back the next morning, she immediately agreed. In the end, the ladies got up to wash up, but they found that Yang Guang did not move. When they turned around, they found that he had fallen asleep on the coffee table! The ladies looked at each other and were speechless. ¡°Is this guy faking it? He wants to stay in our room!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°Then go and try to see if he is faking it!¡± Qi Yingxue said with a smile. Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes and walked to Yang Guang¡¯s side. She whispered into his ear, ¡°Get up, it¡¯s time for you to go in the bridal room!¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Yang Guang suddenly raised his head and looked around blankly. ¡°Where is it?¡± The ladies were speechless. Yang Guang rubbed his eyes and remembered where he was. He glared at Mu Xiaowan and struggled to get up. ¡°You want to rest? Then I¡¯ll go back.¡± However, before he could even take a step, he felt the world spin and threw himself onto the sofa! ¡°No way! You¡¯re still pretending?¡± Mu Xiaowan went forward and reached out to pinch Yang Guang¡¯s ear. She wanted to pull him up, but he did not respond! ¡°Eh? He really drank too much?¡± Mu Xiaowan was puzzled. She reached out to push Yang Guang, but he mumbled, ¡°Stop messing around!¡± Then, there was no more movement. ¡°Why not we just leave him there? Since he drank too much, we won¡¯t be at ease to leave him alone in his room either. Let him sleep here!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°But, is it convenient?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. ¡°What¡¯s so inconvenient about it? There are two bedrooms here. I¡¯ll share a room with Lingling, and you can share a room with Sister-in-law!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Then, alright!¡± Mu Xiaowan turned her head to look at Yang Guang, who was still in a deep sleep.. She thought to herself, ¡°If you¡¯re pretending, I¡¯ll teach you a lesson tomorrow!¡± Chapter 75 - Remorseful Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was not faking it. He had never drunk red wine before. The first time he tasted it, he felt that it tasted very good. There was a faint aroma of grapes, so he drank a few more glasses. Who knew that this wine would have such a strong aftereffect? When he finished drinking, he was dizzy. After an unknown amount of time, he felt something wet on his face. Yang Guang suddenly opened his eyes! Then, he saw Wu Xiaolian holding a wet towel and wiping his face! Yang Guang quickly sat up and looked around before looking out of the window. He found that it was still dark outside, so he asked, ¡°Sister-in-law, you didn¡¯t sleep?¡± ¡°I saw you drank too much. I was afraid that you would feel uncomfortable later, so I wanted to help you sober up!¡± Wu Xiaolian said, then she asked, ¡°Do you feel more comfortable after wiping your face?¡± ¡°Yes, I don¡¯t feel so dizzy anymore. Thank you, Sister-in-law!¡± Yang Guang said gratefully, then he asked, ¡°Are they all asleep?¡± ¡°Yes, they have gone back to their rooms for almost an hour. They should be asleep!¡± Wu Xiaolian said. ¡°Then, Sister-in-law, you should also go to sleep. I¡¯m fine. Everything will be fine after a sleep!¡± Yang Guang felt that his head was still a little heavy, so he said. Wu Xiaolian smiled. ¡°It¡¯s fine. I¡¯ll rinse the towel. It¡¯ll be more comfortable after wiping your face again!¡± After saying that, she got up and took the towel to the bathroom. However, not long after she entered, he heard a low cry coming from inside! Yang Guang was shocked. He immediately got up and rushed over shakily! When he entered the door, he saw Wu Xiaolian fiddling with the faucet. The sprinklers on the faucet were also spraying water, drenching her! Yang Guang stepped forward to help. The two of them twisted and turned the faucet with great difficulty! ¡°It¡¯s my first time using this thing. I don¡¯t even know which one is connected to that. Ouch!¡± Wu Xiaolian¡¯s hair was wet as she said awkwardly. When she didn¡¯t hear Yang Guang¡¯s response, she looked up and was stunned. At this moment, Yang Guang¡¯s eyes were fixed on her, and his breathing became rapid. In her confusion, Wu Xiaolian lowered her head to look at herself, and her face instantly blushed! That was because she realized that her white vest had been drenched by water, and had become transparent! Oh, no! Just now, she had taken off her underwear to feed Yaya. So now, whether it was her upper body or lower body, it was as if she was naked! Yang Guang was in the prime of his life. Previously, he had a similar experience with Sister Lotus. Now that he saw such a scene, how could he bear it? Wu Xiaolian was shy and embarrassed. She did not dare to look at Yang Guang¡¯s straight gaze. She quickly lowered her head and said uneasily, ¡°You¡­ You should get out quickly!¡± In the end, not only did Yang Guang not leave, he even pounced on her! Being hugged by a pair of strong arms, Wu Xiaolian¡¯s mind went blank. She was completely stunned! There was no sound in the bathroom, only Yang Guang¡¯s rapid breathing and the intense heartbeat that could be clearly felt by her body! Wu Xiaolian was flustered and forgot to struggle. She only thought to herself, ¡°What is he going to do? This kid won¡¯t¡­¡± ¡°No, I¡¯m his sister-in-law, how can he do this!¡± She screamed in her heart, but she did not say anything! Just like that, the two of them hugged each other tightly. They could feel each other¡¯s heartbeat and it lasted for a few minutes. In the end, Yang Guang came back to his senses and loosened his grip. ¡°Sister-in-law, I¡¯m sorry!¡± ¡°You¡­ Don¡¯t be like this in the future¡­¡± Wu Xiaolian felt as if her face was on fire. She lowered her head and didn¡¯t dare to look at him as she said softly. ¡°Sister-in-law, it¡¯s all my fault. I¡¯ll definitely earn more money in the future so that you can go out more often. You can take the plane, the ship, and others for a ride!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°???¡± Wu Xiaolian¡¯s face was full of confusion. She raised her head and looked at Yang Guang. Seeing that his eyes were full of guilt, she asked in puzzlement, ¡°Why are you saying this?¡± ¡°I¡¯ll let you enjoy the life that others can enjoy. In the future, there won¡¯t be a situation where you don¡¯t even know how to use the faucet!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°¡­¡± Wu Xiaolian was speechless. Was that why he apologized? Then why didn¡¯t he tell her anything as he looked at her for a while and hugged her for half a day? However, she was shy by nature. She would definitely not ask such a question, so she nodded. Wu Xiaolian said in a low voice, ¡°Don¡¯t think too much. I don¡¯t have any ambitions. I just hope that you can live well and Yaya can grow up healthily.¡± ¡°That won¡¯t do. I¡¯ll definitely let you live the best life!¡± Yang Guang said this and then held Wu Xiaolian¡¯s hand, causing her heart to tremble again! ¡°Alright Sister-in-law, it¡¯s getting late. Quickly change your clothes and go to rest.¡± After Yang Guang said that, he pulled her out of the bathroom. Wu Xiaolian¡¯s heart was pounding, but Yang Guang did not do anything else. He went straight to the sofa and lay down. Back in the bedroom, Mu Xiaowan was sleeping soundly with Yaya in her arms. Wu Xiaolian bit her lip, took off her wet tank top and shorts, and wiped her body with a towel. The intense heartbeat just now was still lingering in her mind! In the living room outside, Yang Guang let out a long breath and gave himself a gentle slap! Fortunately, he had reacted quickly just now. Otherwise, he would not know how to explain it! What he said to Wu Xiaolian was also sincere, but more importantly, it was to cover up the awkwardness! What else could he say? Could he say that he was promiscuous after drinking and that he was worse than a pig and a dog? Fortunately, Wu Xiaolian did not say anything. Otherwise, there would be no way to clean up the mess! While lying on the sofa regretting, his mind was filled with the wonderful feeling of hugging Wu Xiaolian. Yang Guang immediately lost his sleepiness. What he didn¡¯t know was that Wu Xiaolian, who was in the room, was no better. She lay on the bed and stared blankly at the ceiling for the whole night! Uncle and Sister-in-law both could not sleep at the same time. A strange emotion gradually took root in their hearts because of this matter! The next morning, Mu Xiaowan came out of the room with disheveled hair and yawned. The first thing she saw was Yang Guang. She found that he had already sat up, so she asked, ¡°Yo, are you sober now?¡± ¡°Yes, how are you? Did you feel unwell last night?¡± Yang Guang asked. Mu Xiaowan shook her head. ¡°I slept soundly. I slept until dawn!¡± Then, seeing Yang Guang¡¯s eyes turn black, he asked curiously, ¡°Why? You can¡¯t sleep in other¡¯s bed too?¡± ¡°What do you mean?¡± Yang Guang was a little confused and asked in confusion. ¡°Sister-in-law had sleeping difficulties last night. She didn¡¯t sleep well last night, so her eyes are also black!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. As soon as she finished speaking, Wu Xiaolian came out from inside. As expected, her face didn¡¯t look good. One could tell that she didn¡¯t sleep well! The two looked at each other and quickly looked away. Yang Guang laughed and said, ¡°That is not true. I drank too much and had a headache for a long time, so I didn¡¯t sleep well!¡± ¡°Haha, that means your alcohol tolerance is still not as good as mine!¡± Mu Xiaowan didn¡¯t notice the difference between Yang Guang and Wu Xiaolian, she laughed proudly. Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling also got up very quickly. Everyone washed up, had breakfast, and then prepared to return to Qingshan Village. But unexpectedly, Qi Yingxue received a phone call before they went downstairs.. Then she looked at Yang Guang and said, ¡°Can you not go back today?¡± Chapter 76 - Invitation Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Hearing Qi Yingxue¡¯s words, everyone was stunned! Yang Guang quickly asked, ¡°What¡¯s the matter, Sister? What¡¯s the matter?¡± ¡°Uncle Chen wants to see you. He needs a favor from you!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Oh, sure. I don¡¯t have anything to do at home at the moment. I can stay!¡± Yang Guang said. Qi Yingxue nodded and turned to look at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°Can you help me send Sister-in-law and Lingling back?¡± ¡°No problem. Leave them to me!¡± Mu Xiaowan snapped her fingers and agreed without a word. Then, everyone went downstairs to check out. After watching Mu Xiaowan¡¯s car leave, Qi Yingxue said to Yang Guang, ¡°Let¡¯s go. I¡¯ll take you to Uncle Chen¡¯s house.¡± After getting into the car, Yang Guang asked, ¡°Sister, did Uncle Chen say what it is?¡± ¡°He didn¡¯t say. He probably needed a doctor. After you showed off your skills last night, he praised you a lot!¡± Qi Yingxue said. Yang Guang replied with an ¡°Oh¡± and didn¡¯t say anything else. The car quickly returned to the neighborhood that they went to last night. When they arrived at Chen Zhiyuan¡¯s house, they saw that there were already quite a few people sitting in the living room on the first floor. Most of these people were people that they had seen last night. There was even one that he had seen earlier. It was actually that uninvited guest Chu Xuan when he had dinner with Qi Yingxue last time! Qi Yingxue clearly did not expect him to be here, and she was stunned on the spot! And Chu Xuan¡¯s wrist was still wrapped in a cast. Clearly, his injuries had not recovered yet! They were not surprised since it had only been a few days. It would be strange if he could recover. Seeing this fellow squinting his eyes and looking at him with ill intentions, Yang Guang ignored him. He immediately greeted Chen Zhiyuan, ¡°Mr. Chen, I¡¯m here!¡± ¡°Alright, alright. Dr. Yang, please come over and take a seat!¡± Chen Zhiyuan nodded and patted the seat beside him. Yang Guang was stunned. Was it appropriate for him to sit beside the old man? No matter what, he was still a junior, so he understood this basic etiquette. Therefore, Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°No need. I¡¯d better sit with Sister Yingxue!¡± ¡°That¡¯s good too!¡± Chen Zhiyuan nodded and continued, ¡°You Young Man, you¡¯re promising. You¡¯re neither arrogant nor impetuous. Not bad at all!¡± Yang Guang thought to himself, ¡°You¡¯re already putting on a high hat for me now. Shouldn¡¯t you have anything that needs my help later?¡± As expected, after Chen Zhiyuan finished speaking, he directly went straight to the point and said, ¡°Yang Guang, I invited you over early in the morning. Actually, I have a request!¡± ¡°Mr. Chen, if there¡¯s anything I can help, I won¡¯t decline!¡± Yang Guang smiled and said. ¡°Okay, I know that you¡¯re Xiaoxue¡¯s godbrother, so you¡¯re not an outsider. I actually want to ask you to treat an old friend of mine today!¡± Chen Zhiyuan said. It was similar to what he thought, so he was not surprised at all. Therefore, Yang Guang smiled and nodded. ¡°Okay, no problem!¡± ¡°Uncle Chen, when you mentioned a young doctor just now, I have thought of this kid. I didn¡¯t expect it to really be him. Do you really trust him that much?¡± Chu Xuan, who had been silent all this time, asked in a deep voice at this time. ¡°That¡¯s right. I have seen Dr. Yang treating patients before. Why do you say that, Chu Xuan?¡± Chen Zhiyuan asked with some confusion. ¡°If you ask me, this person is a charlatan. He doesn¡¯t have any real skills. Besides, you don¡¯t know that my hand was injured because of this kid!¡± Chu Xuan didn¡¯t know what he was thinking. Perhaps he felt that his relationship with Chen Zhiyuan was closer. He wanted to use the relationship between the two families to stir things up and not let Yang Guang stay here! Unfortunately, he was thinking too much. He might not know what kind of character he had, but the elders all knew that Chu Xuan was an ignorant and incompetent rich second generation. He didn¡¯t have any status in people¡¯s hearts! Therefore, Chen Zhiyuan smiled faintly and asked, ¡°Is that so? Then how did you get injured? Could it be that Yang Guang hit you?¡± ¡°It¡¯s more or less like what you said!¡± After Chu Xuan said that, he immediately told them about what happened that day. He said that he punched Yang Guang, but it didn¡¯t hit Yang Guang. Instead, it hit the wall and resulted in a fracture of the wrist bone. Everyone present was a little speechless. Seeing that Chu Xuan was still confident, Chen Zhiyuan shook his head and said, ¡°No wonder your injury hasn¡¯t healed yet. If Yang Guang had treated you back then, you wouldn¡¯t be in this state now!¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Chu Xuan was stunned on the spot. He turned around and looked at Yang Guang. ¡°He¡­ He has that ability?¡± ¡°With Dr. Yang¡¯s ability, even Old He has to say that this young man is formidable. What do you think?¡± Chen Zhiyuan asked back. Seeing that the old man was unhappy, Chu Xuan swallowed his saliva and did not dare to speak again. He knew how to read people¡¯s expressions. He found that Chen Zhiyuan was not very happy. It was obviously due to him saying bad things about Yang Guang in front of everyone. Chu Xuan immediately became mute. At this time, Chen Zhiyuan continued, ¡°Alright, everyone can go back first. I¡¯ll be fine here!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t!¡± Upon hearing the old man¡¯s order to leave, someone immediately said, ¡°Old Chen, since Dr. Yang is here, we naturally have to observe his medical skills. You can¡¯t chase us away when there¡¯s such a good opportunity!¡± ¡°Hmm¡­¡± Chen Zhiyuan pondered for a moment and turned to look at Yang Guang. ¡°Kid, what do you think?¡± Yang Guang shrugged. ¡°I don¡¯t mind. It won¡¯t affect my treatment if someone sees it or no one sees it!¡± ¡°Alright then. Since that¡¯s the case, please satisfy everyone¡¯s curiosity!¡± Chen Zhiyuan said with a smile. While they were talking, a very tall nanny van drove in from outside the villa. Not long after, an old man in a wheelchair was pushed into the house by two young men. This old man had white hair and was about seventy years old. He looked quite energetic, but it was a pity that he couldn¡¯t move his legs. After the introduction, they found out that the old man¡¯s surname was Yang and his name was Jianguo. He was Chen Zhiyuan¡¯s old comrade. The two of them had been friends for forty years. ¡°Yang Guang, don¡¯t feel pressured. Just try your best to help take a look. If you can¡¯t treat my old buddy¡¯s leg, it¡¯s okay!¡± After the introduction, Chen Zhiyuan said. ¡°I understand.¡± Yang Guang nodded and came to Yang Jianguo¡¯s side under everyone¡¯s gaze. Then, he reached out and grabbed his wrist. Soon, he raised his head and said, ¡°The old man¡¯s nerves are damaged, causing his lower body to be paralyzed. It¡¯s not a big problem!¡± ¡°What?¡± Yang Jianguo and the two young men behind him were stunned! The man and woman were alike. They were around twenty years old. They looked like brother and sister or twins of mixed-sex. Then, the man asked, ¡°The hospital and the experts said that it¡¯s extremely difficult to repair nerves, but you actually said that it¡¯s not a big problem?¡± ¡°In any case, it¡¯s not a big problem for me!¡± Yang Guang shrugged his shoulders and asked, ¡°Do you want to try?¡± ¡°What are you going to do?¡± The young man asked. Yang Guang smiled, ¡°It¡¯s very simple. I¡¯ll give the old man a massage first.. You¡¯ll know after you see the effect!¡± Chapter 77 - Stunned Everyone Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The young man behind Yang Jianguo was stunned. He narrowed his eyes and asked, ¡°What do you mean? My grandfather¡¯s legs are healed after your massage?¡± ¡°Yes!¡± Yang Guang nodded and said seriously, ¡°If it doesn¡¯t work, you can find another way to treat them!¡± ¡°Yes, yes, we have to give it a try. Dr. Yang¡¯s medical skills are very good!¡± Chen Zhiyuan chimed in. ¡°Then let¡¯s give it a try. Treat them as a last resort!¡± Yang Jianguo said this and then looked up at Yang Guang. ¡°Little Friend, I¡¯m not talking about you!¡± ¡°It¡¯s fine!¡± Yang Guang smiled and squatted down. He helped the old man take off his shoes and socks. Then, he placed his feet and calves on his knees! Seeing this scene, Chen Zhiyuan and Yang Jianguo looked at each other and nodded slightly. Just this action alone was enough to show that this young man knew his manners! Straightening one leg, Yang Guang tapped a few times consecutively at the yongquan point at the bottom of his foot, following his ankle to his calf, then to his knee and thigh! Following that, Yang Jianguo was stunned. ¡°Aiyo!¡± ¡°Grandpa, what¡¯s wrong with you!¡± The young man and woman behind him were instantly shocked! ¡°Qing ¡®er, Hong ¡®er, don¡¯t be nervous. I just feel something!¡± Yang Jianguo smiled. ¡°So fast?¡± Yang Ziqing was stunned and looked at Yang Guang in surprise. Yang Guang didn¡¯t look at him. He raised his head to look at Yang Jianguo, ¡°Mr. Yang, your legs haven¡¯t moved for ten years, right?¡± ¡°It¡¯s exactly ten years. How did you know that?¡± Yang Jianguo had not felt anything on his legs for a long time. Now, he suddenly felt like he was being pricked by needles. Hope had risen in Yang Jianguo¡¯s heart again, so he was in a good mood. Yang Guang smiled, then he said, ¡°Originally, if it was just a new injury, I was confident that I could let you recover on the spot. But because it has been a long time, your nerves are wretched, and your muscles have lost their vitality after not exercising for a long time, so you still need some time to recuperate properly!¡± Yang Jianguo¡¯s eyes flashed with a strange light. ¡°Why? Are you sure that you have the confidence to heal my legs?¡± ¡°Of course. Don¡¯t tell me that I still dare to boast to you?¡± Yang Guang smiled. The energy of the Method of Divine Farmer was poured directly into the soles of his feet and began to attack Yang Jianguo¡¯s leg meridians! Under the watchful eyes of others, the loose muscles on his legs actually began to tremble! The scene was completely silent. Everyone was stunned. Everyone else was shocked, but Qi Yingxue was now filled with pride! This was because she was the one who introduced Yang Guang to Chen Zhiyuan. At the same time, she also knew that Yang Guang¡¯s outstanding performance would be of great help to her future! At this time, a ripple appeared in her heart because of Yang Guang¡¯s miraculous medical skills. Even she did not know what she was thinking. However, the way Qi Yingxue looked at Yang Guang had changed! Among the people present, almost no one noticed this. Only Chu Xuan saw the tenderness in Qi Yingxue¡¯s eyes. A small flame of jealousy slowly rose up, burning his heart and scratching his liver. He was very unhappy! Yang Guang was fully focused on the treatment. He did not care about the expressions of the people around him. After treating one of his legs, he let out a long breath and looked up at Yang Jianguo. ¡°Mr. Yang, how do you feel now?¡± ¡°Good, I can feel the warmth of my bones!¡± Yang Jianguo¡¯s face was full of smiles as he gave him a thumbs up. ¡°A young man like you has unique skills. You are polite and kind-hearted. It¡¯s really rare!¡± With such a high evaluation, Yang Guang only smiled. He thought to himself that treating patients and saving people was his responsibility. There was nothing much to say. After that, he raised his other leg and began treatment again. It took more than an hour. When Yang Guang released his hand, his forehead was already covered in fine beads of sweat. Just as he was about to raise his hand to wipe, a fragrant handkerchief appeared in front of him. Qi Yingxue said to him, ¡°Use this to wipe!¡± Yang Guang smiled and took it over. ¡°Thank you, Sister!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and her face actually turned red! Chen Zhiyuan¡¯s eyes lit up. When he noticed this detail, a strange look flashed across his eyes! Then, he laughed and stood up. He said in a clear voice, ¡°Old Yang, can you stand up now?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t!¡± When Yang Guang heard this, he quickly shouted and continued, ¡°Later, I¡¯ll write you a prescription. Brew the medicinal soup according to the prescription. Then, drink it for another week!¡± ¡°A week, even if it is a month or a year, I can wait! Yang Guang, you¡¯re really a miracle doctor! A miracle doctor!¡± Yang Jianguo laughed. When he thought of being able to stand up again, he was extremely happy. This was almost like being reborn! In order to prove that Yang Guang¡¯s treatment was effective, he even purposely shook his legs and showed it to everyone and his grandchildren! Everyone was dumbfounded. Just a massage alone had such a miraculous effect. This medical skill was really amazing! As Yang Guang wrote the prescription, Chen Zhiyuan came to Yang Jianguo¡¯s side and asked with a smile, ¡°Old Yang, I found such a young miracle doctor for you. Don¡¯t you know what should you do now?¡± ¡°You don¡¯t have to remind me, I know!¡± Yang Jianguo smiled and turned to look at Yang Ziqing. ¡°Go to the car and bring me my black suitcase!¡± Yang Ziqing was stunned when he heard that. ¡°Grandpa!¡± ¡°What? I can stand up and walk soon. Shouldn¡¯t I thank the young miracle doctor properly?¡± Yang Jianguo¡¯s face was stern and he looked a little unhappy. Seeing him like this, Yang Ziqing didn¡¯t dare to say anything more and walked out. At this moment, Yang Zihong pulled him and said to Yang Jianguo, ¡°Grandpa, why don¡¯t you ask him what he needs? If this young miracle doctor is short of money, what¡¯s the use of gifting him a jade Buddha?¡± ¡°You¡¯re right!¡± Yang Jianguo nodded. ¡°Qing ¡®er, get the black suitcase and bring another 200,000 in cash!¡± ¡°Got it!¡± Only then did Yang Ziqing turn around and leave. When Yang Guang finished writing the prescription and indicated the dosage of the herbs and the way to boil them, Yang Ziqing also returned with two boxes. He asked his grandson to open the two suitcases, Yang Jianguo said, ¡°Little Miracle Doctor, I have prepared two gifts here. One is 200,000 in cash, and the other is a jade Buddha that I picked up on the overseas battlefield. You can take whichever you like!¡± Yang Guang took a fancy to the Jade Buddha at a glance. The quality of this thing was average, but there seemed to be some mysterious energy in it! However, before he took the thing, he first greeted him politely and said with a smile, ¡°Mr. Yang, treating patients and saving people is my duty. It¡¯s my family¡¯s motto to not look for repayment after helping others. You¡¯re too polite!¡± ¡°It¡¯s not polite. You deserve it!¡± Yang Jianguo laughed and said, ¡°Hurry up and choose. If you don¡¯t choose, I will not leave today!¡± After the foreshadowing was almost done, Yang Guang chuckled and said, ¡°Alright then, I want this jade Buddha.. I¡¯ll take it back as a souvenir!¡± Chapter 78 - Stayed Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°This jade Buddha is my grandfather¡¯s favorite thing. You¡¯d better be telling the truth. Don¡¯t sell it for money!¡± Seeing that Yang Guang wanted the jade Buddha, Yang Zihong reminded him loudly! Yang Guang was stunned. He turned to look at Yang Jianguo, ¡°Mr. Yang, since it¡¯s your favorite thing, I won¡¯t accept it.¡± Yang Jianguo first turned back to glare at his granddaughter, then smiled at Yang Guang, ¡°It¡¯s a good thing to gift it to a fated person. Little Friend, you have given me a new lease on life. It¡¯s nothing for me to give it to you!¡± ¡°Since that¡¯s the case, then I¡¯ll thank you!¡± Yang Guang smiled and happily took the suitcase containing the jade Buddha. Then, he smiled at everyone and said, ¡°Since there¡¯s nothing else, I¡¯ll take my leave first!¡± ¡°Miracle Doctor Yang, what¡¯s the rush? Stay for lunch!¡± Chen Zhiyuan said. ¡°No, I have many works at home. I have to go back quickly!¡± Yang Guang declined the invitation and said goodbye to the two old men. Then, he left the villa with Qi Yingxue. When they got in the car and left the neighborhood, Qi Yingxue asked curiously, ¡°Little Brother, why did you ask for an inconspicuous jade Buddha instead of money?¡± ¡°The value of this thing doesn¡¯t seem to be very high, right?¡± Yang Guang turned his head to look at her. ¡°Sister, you also know something about jade?¡± ¡°More or less. The quality of the jade Buddha is average. It shouldn¡¯t even be worth 100,000 yuan!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Oh, I don¡¯t really care about the value. I just think that this jade Buddha is very beautiful. I like it just by looking at it, so I want it!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°Besides, what I lack now is not a small amount of money. The money that Mr. Yang gave me is not enough for me to build a road, so I simply decline that!¡± ¡°You really want to build a road?¡± Qi Yingxue looked at him. ¡°That¡¯s right!¡± Yang Guang nodded. ¡°If you want to be rich, you need to build a road first. If the road leading Qingshan Village to the outside world is not repaired, the things that I¡¯ve planted won¡¯t be easy to transport!¡± Qi Yingxue nodded and thought for a moment before saying, ¡°This is a very expensive project. If you really want to do it, I can sponsor you some. It¡¯s about two million!¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Yang Guang was shocked and sat up straight. ¡°So much? Sister, you¡¯re too good to me!¡± ¡°You deserve it!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and continued, ¡°If you¡¯re capable, it¡¯s easy to earn money. So, do your best!¡± ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll do my best!¡± Yang Guang¡¯s heart was filled with warmth and he immediately nodded. Because the work in the restaurant was not arranged, before sending Yang Guang home, Qi Yingxue went back to settle down and arranged the work for her subordinates. Before leaving, Yang Guang could not help but say, ¡°Sis, if you have time, you can stay in our village for a few days!¡± Qi Yingxue was stunned, then she smiled bitterly. ¡°I really like the environment in your village, but the work in the restaurant is really too busy!¡± After saying that, she thought for a moment. ¡°How about this, I will only stay at your house for a day at most!¡± ¡°That¡¯s great! A day is fine too!¡± Yang Guang was overjoyed. He did not have any ill intentions. He just felt that Sister Yingxue treated him very well, so he wanted to properly entertain her. Although there was nothing special in the village, everything was authentic and original. After that, the two of them left the restaurant and drove all the way to Qingshan Village. They didn¡¯t say anything on the way. When they returned to the village and saw the car parked outside his house, Yang Guang was stunned for a moment and said, ¡°Eh, Mu Xiaowan didn¡¯t leave?¡± ¡°Maybe she wants to stay too. It¡¯s going to be lively!¡± Qi Yingxue said with a smile. Yang Guang smiled bitterly. ¡°It will indeed be lively!¡± He knew that with Mu Xiaowan here, the atmosphere in the house would definitely not be dull! Upon entering the house and seeing that the two of them had returned, Mu Xiaowan immediately asked, ¡°Why did you two return so quickly?¡± ¡°After we¡¯re done, we go home. Why are we staying in the town?¡± Yang Guang looked at her and continued to ask, ¡°Why are you still here?¡± ¡°Hey, why are you talking like that? Don¡¯t you want me to stay here?¡± Mu Xiaowan was displeased when she heard that and straightaway put her hands on her waist. The two of them argued with each other whenever they met. Everyone was used to it. Qi Yingxue and Wu Xiaolian did not speak. After exchanging a glance, the two of them went into the house to talk. Yang Guang looked at Mu Xiaowan and immediately said, ¡°It¡¯s not that I don¡¯t want to. I¡¯m just asking. Don¡¯t tell me you plan to stay at my house today?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. I want to stay here. Do you welcome me?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. ¡°How am I dare to say that you are not welcome?¡± Yang Guang chuckled. He was still very happy in his heart because there would be two more beautiful women in the house. Just looking at them was very pleasing to the eye, right? Mu Xiaowan looked at him and snorted. Then she said, ¡°That¡¯s more like it. At least you know what¡¯s good for you!¡± It was not noon yet. There were two more important guests in the house. Wu Xiaolian came out of the house at this time and said to Yang Guang, ¡°Xiao Guang, after lunch, why don¡¯t you go into the mountain to pick some mushrooms back?¡± ¡°Sure, that¡¯s what I thought too!¡± Yang Guang nodded and continued, ¡°There¡¯s nothing much we can treat them in our house. I¡¯ll definitely go into the mountain to find some good stuff!¡± After saying that, he turned to look at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°Are you still going to follow me into the mountain today?¡± ¡°No!¡± Recalling the previous experience, Mu Xiaowan shook her head like a rattle-drum. Yang Guang knew that she didn¡¯t dare to go. Last time, she almost tore her clothes, so she must still have a lingering fear. During lunch, Xu Ling came back from the construction site. When she learned that Qi Yingxue was going to stay at home, she was naturally very happy. Then she said to Yang Guang, ¡°Oh right, I heard from the villagers today that someone picked up pine mushroom in Savage Ravine. If you want to go into the mountain, why don¡¯t you go there and take a look!¡± ¡°Really? Who picked it up?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Mr. Sun who herds sheep. He picked up two!¡± Xu Ling said. Yang Guang nodded. ¡°Alright, then I¡¯ll go and take a look too. Last time, I also dug up a pine mushroom, but unfortunately¡­¡± After saying that, he sighed and glanced at Mu Xiaowan. Mu Xiaowan did not show weakness. She puffed out her chest. ¡°What¡¯s a pity? Are you blaming me?¡± ¡°Just blame me!¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and said to Qi Yingxue, ¡°Sister, wait at home. We¡¯ll have fried meat with pine mushrooms tonight!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and nodded. ¡°Okay, but you have to be careful!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ve walked all over the mountain. I¡¯ll be fine even if I close my eyes!¡± Yang Guang said. Hearing him say this, Mu Xiaowan¡¯s eyes rolled. ¡°You¡¯re bragging!¡± After lunch, Yang Guang carried his basket and left home, heading towards the mountains in the west. A few women were sitting under the big tree at the village entrance. When they saw him, they asked one after another, ¡°Yang Guang, where are you going?¡± ¡°I¡¯m going into the mountains to pick some mountain goods. What else can I do there?¡± Yang Guang laughed. Mrs. Niu was also in the crowd. When she heard that, she curled her lips. ¡°All the good things in the mountains were collected by you. Aren¡¯t you done yet?¡± Yang Guang looked at her. ¡°What are you talking about? There¡¯s no owner for the things in the mountain. Whoever picks them up will get them.. If you have the ability, you should go and pick them up too!¡± Chapter 79 - Wolves Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio When Mrs. Niu heard that, she immediately shook her head. ¡°I¡¯m not going. There are wolves in the mountains recently. I don¡¯t want to be eaten by wolves!¡± ¡°Come on, Mrs. Niu. You¡¯re jealous that I found something good in the mountains. You wouldn¡¯t scare me with a wolf, would you?¡± Yang Guang asked with a smile. ¡°Who¡¯s scaring you? If you don¡¯t believe me, you can ask Mr. Sun. He saw it in the mountains!¡± Mrs. Niu quickly said. ¡°Oh, if there¡¯s a wolf, let it be. I¡¯m not afraid. If I¡¯m lucky, I¡¯ll run into it and bring it back to eat its meat!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and carried the basket on his back as he walked into the mountains. The women started chattering among themselves. Mrs. Niu rolled her eyes. ¡°He really knows how to brag. He even says he wants to eat wolf meat. He is lucky if he doesn¡¯t get eaten by a wolf!¡± After entering the mountains, Yang Guang carried the basket on his back and walked happily towards the direction of the Savage Ravine. In terms of the mountain delicacies, the pine mushroom was definitely ranked first. This thing had a high nutritional value and was also the most expensive commodity. However, it was not so easy to find it. Because the pine mushroom grew in the soil, it hardly showed itself. Unless it was a very experienced fungus harvester, ordinary people would not be able to find it! Yang Guang hummed a little tune that he did not know what it was. He walked through the mountains and fields for almost an hour before he reached the Savage Ravine. This was a branch of the surrounding mountain range. Other than the valley, the entire ravine was filled with dark green pine forests. The mountain wind blew, and the trees rustled, making the atmosphere very gloomy. If it were Qi Yingxue and Mu Xiaowan, they would definitely not dare to enter such a dense forest. Yang Guang carried the woodcutter and the basket on his back as he entered the forest and began to search among the fallen leaves on the ground. Since Sun Wanshan had seen pine mushrooms here before, he felt that he would definitely be able to find them. One was not enough. At least a dozen of them had to be dug back to prepare a dish for dinner. The surroundings were quiet. The pine needles under his feet rustled as he walked. Yang Guang walked for a long distance in the forest before he finally saw an inconspicuous protrusion on a clearing. He squatted down. It was indeed a pine mushroom that had broken through the soil! ¡°I knew it! I definitely won¡¯t return empty-handed!¡± Yang Guang was overjoyed. He quickly used the woodcutter to dig up the soil. In a short while, he took out the entire pine mushroom. It was more than ten centimeters long. With the dark red pine mushroom in his hand, Yang Guang was extremely happy. He could not bear to put it into the basket on his back. While holding the pine mushroom, he looked around, looking for traces of other pine mushrooms. But at this moment, Yang Guang suddenly heard a low roar! When he looked up, Yang Guang¡¯s eyes immediately widened and he cried out, ¡°F*ck!¡± A dozen meters in front of him, six or seven wolves were staring at him! Those wolves¡¯ eyes were dark green and their eyes were fierce. Their mouths were wide open. Yang Guang¡¯s nervousness was instinctive, but then he calmed down. He thought to himself, ¡°I¡¯m not the same as before. I used to be afraid of you, but now I¡¯m not!¡± ¡°You want to eat me? I want to eat you too!¡± Thinking of this, Yang Guang unhurriedly put the pine mushroom into the basket, then he took off the basket and placed it under the tree. Holding the woodcutter tightly, he stood up and said to the wolves, ¡°If you know what¡¯s good for you, then get lost, or I won¡¯t be polite!¡± This was complete nonsense. If the wolves could understand human language, wouldn¡¯t that be strange? Although he was holding the woodcutter in his hands, the wolves were obviously not afraid. They growled and slowly walked towards Yang Guang! Seeing this, Yang Guang could only say, ¡°Alright, since you guys took the initiative to bring me dinner, I can only accept it!¡± As soon as he finished speaking, he had already rushed over with the woodcutter in hand! The few wolves were all dumbfounded. This was the first time they had seen such a fearless person. He actually dared to provoke them? Hence, they opened their bloody mouths and the few wolves pounced over! Humans and wolves instantly clashed! The woodcutter was not very sharp, but Yang Guang¡¯s strength far exceeded that of an ordinary person. His gaze was also incomparably accurate. Therefore, as soon as they came into contact, he cut off the throat of one of the wolves! Without a word, that wolf fell to the ground and was unable to get up. Its entire body began to twitch. The smell of blood instantly filled the air. The remaining few wolves immediately went crazy. Their claws and fangs were all aimed at Yang Guang, but it was a pity that he was very agile. Every time he dodged, he was not hurt at all. In the end, the few wolves did not end up well. Each of them was hit a few times by the woodcutter. Some of them had broken bones and tendons, while others had their skin split open! In the blink of an eye, three wolves were killed. When the remaining wolves saw that the situation was not right, they immediately cried out and turned around to rush into the forest! ¡°If I don¡¯t teach you guys a lesson, you won¡¯t know who is the boss of this mountain!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and wiped the blood off his hands. It was obviously impossible to bring all three wolves back home after they were dead. They weighed more than a hundred kilograms each! Therefore, Yang Guang squatted down and used the woodcutter to cut off their hind legs. Each leg weighed more than ten kilograms, and they occupied the basket when they were placed in the basket. The wolf meat was hard, but it was still delicious after being stewed for a while. The key was how to handle it. Yang Guang ate it once when he was young. He still remembered how his grandfather cooked it, so he was very confident that the meat would be delicious when it was brought back. But even though he had harvested the wolf meat, he was still not satisfied. He kept thinking about getting more pine mushrooms back. So he placed the basket under the tree and started to search around. Needless to say, Mr. Sun¡¯s discovery was not completely worthless. Not long after, Yang Guang found a few more pine mushrooms. Just as Yang Guang was feeling happy, a whimpering sound suddenly came from the bushes in the distance. It sounded like a little puppy barking. Yang Guang was stunned for a moment. He quickly walked over and opened up the weeds that were more than a meter tall. He saw a nest inside. In that nest, a round little thing was squirming. ¡°Holy sh*t, is this a wolf cub?¡± Yang Guang squatted down to take a look and found that this wolf cub had just been born and had just opened its eyes. Being picked up by Yang Guang, the wolf cub¡¯s eyes were helpless as it groaned. It even stuck out its tongue to lick Yang Guang¡¯s hand. ¡°Uh¡­¡± The fat wolf cub looked very silly and cute. It was not aggressive at all. Yang Guang thought to himself, ¡°I might have killed its parents just now. No one cares about this guy anymore. It won¡¯t starve to death in the mountains, right?¡± Perhaps it would be bitten to death by other things before it starved to death! But would it be alright to take it back? It was a wolf after all. What would happen if it grew up and bit people? After thinking about his sister-in-law and Yaya at home, Yang Guang felt that it was better not to take the risk. He would just let the wolf cub fend for itself! After putting the wolf cub back into its den, he turned around and left. Unexpectedly, the wolf cub¡¯s mournful howl came from behind him. Then, it crawled out of the den and followed him. Yang Guang walked for more than ten meters. The wolf cub let out a mournful howl as it hurriedly followed Yang Guang. It fell several times in a row! ¡°You still have your eyes on me?¡± Yang Guang was speechless and stopped in his tracks.. Chapter 80 - Was Worth Remembering Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The wolf cub caught up to Yang Guang and began to act coquettishly under his feet. It kept rubbing against his pants, making him a little soft-hearted. The main reason was that this fellow was very chubby and cute. In the end, Yang Guang had no choice but to squat down and pick it up. ¡°Forget it, I¡¯ll take you home to raise you first. If you dare to bite when you grow up, I¡¯ll teach you a lesson!¡± The wolf cub did not know what he said, so it stuck out its tongue and licked Yang Guang¡¯s hand. Returning to the place where he had come from, Yang Guang carried the heavy basket on his back. With a woodcutter in one hand and a chubby wolf cub in the other, he set off on the journey home. The harvest was not bad on that day. Moreover, the basket was full. He could not find anything else to take, so he might as well go back. There was nothing to talk about while he was on the way. When he returned to the village, it was past four o¡¯clock in the afternoon. The people who were enjoying the shade at the village entrance had all dispersed. Yang Guang wanted to show off his harvest, but he did not succeed. Then, when he returned home, he saw that the ladies were all there, helping Wu Xiaolian to wash the vegetables. Mu Xiaowan¡¯s eyes were sharp. When she saw the furry thing in Yang Guang¡¯s hand, she quickly ran over to grab it. ¡°Wow, what a cute dog. How can it be so fat?¡± ¡°There¡¯s only one in the den. The milk has been eaten by it. How can it not be fat?¡± Yang Guang laughed. He was a little naughty. He deliberately did not say that it was a wolf cub. He thought about telling everyone later to see their expressions. The ladies obviously liked this furry and chubby little animal, so everyone quickly put down the work in their hands and ran over to hug the wolf cub. The little thing was obviously very nervous. Its black bean-like eyes were full of innocence. It looked around and its body was still trembling slightly, making everyone love it even more. When she couldn¡¯t put it down, Mu Xiaowan asked, ¡°Who did you get this little thing from?¡± ¡°I picked it up from the mountains!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and continued, ¡°It¡¯s not a dog, it¡¯s a wolf!¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Mu Xiaowan was stunned and almost let go! ¡°Are you afraid?¡± Yang Guang had a wicked smile on his face. He had been waiting for this moment. However, Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes and said, ¡°Such a small wolf, what¡¯s there to be afraid of? If you don¡¯t want it, I¡¯ll take it home and raise it later!¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Now, it was Yang Guang¡¯s turn to be surprised. He stared at her with his round eyes and said, ¡°Sister, this is a wolf!¡± ¡°So what? I raise it since it is still young. When it is raised, it must have a relationship with me. Its wild nature will also be gone!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°Xiaowan is right. Such a small wolf cub, raise it well. When it grows up, it will not attack people!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°That¡¯s true!¡± Yang Guang nodded. He reached out and snatched the wolf cub from Mu Xiaowan¡¯s arms. ¡°Then I will keep it at home. It can protect Sister-in-law and Yaya!¡± Mu Xiaowan knew that she couldn¡¯t take it away after hearing what he said, so she rolled her eyes at him. ¡°Tsk, do you think I care? Then keep it!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and put the wolf cub on the ground, letting it familiarize itself with the environment. In the end, this guy was very territorial. It rolled and crawled in the yard and ran. It found a corner and squeezed out some urine, leaving its scent behind. When everyone was watching with interest, Yaya stumbled over and held it down! In the end, the wolf cub fell to the ground and showed its belly. Yaya smiled happily and played with the wolf cub. Seeing this, everyone revealed an aunt-like smile. Then, Mu Xiaowan asked, ¡°This little fellow is too cute. Let¡¯s give it a name!¡± ¡°Let¡¯s call it Xiaowan!¡± Yang Guang said quickly. ¡°Bah, I think we should call it Little Guang!¡± Mu Xiaowan glared at him. Qi Yingxue¡¯s eyes revealed a mischievous smile. She immediately said, ¡°Yes, let¡¯s call it Little Guang!¡± Of course, Yang Guang refused. In the end, his two fists were no match for four hands. Even Wu Xiaolian agreed with the name Little Guang! Hearing Mu Xiaowan call Little Guang one after another, Yang Guang was so angry! However, there was nothing he could do. The Yin was flourishing and the Yang was declining in this home. His opinion was ignored. In the end, there was nothing he could do. Yang Guang could only go to the kitchen to boil water gloomily and prepare to cook the wolf¡¯s legs. After the sunset, the courtyard was filled with the fragrance of meat. Wu Xiaolian washed the pine mushrooms and cut them into slices. She fried them with pork and added two stir-fried vegetables. The dining table was filled. When everyone sat together and was about to start eating, Mu Xiaowan suddenly said, ¡°How can we eat mountain delicacies without wine?¡± ¡°I¡¯ve already prepared it!¡± Wu Xiaolian smiled and got up to go to the kitchen. Then, she took out two bottles of white wine. The labels on them had changed color and were almost white. The handwriting could not be seen clearly. ¡°Wow, this wine is old!¡± Said Mu Xiaowan. ¡°Yeah, they should be from a long time ago. I found them in the room. I don¡¯t know when my father-in-law bought them. We must have forgotten about them,¡± Wu Xiaolian said. Mu Xiaowan was stunned when she heard that. ¡°Ah? Then it wouldn¡¯t be inappropriate for us to drink it?¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay. Sister-in-law and I don¡¯t like to drink wine. If you like it, then just drink it. Otherwise, it would be a waste to leave them there!¡± Yang Guang smiled. It was a custom in Qingshan Village to treat guests with the best things in the house. He was very willing to do so. He opened the bottle cap and a strong aroma of wine assaulted him. Mu Xiaowan revealed a pleasantly surprised expression after taking a whiff. ¡°It really is a good old wine!¡± ¡°You, you¡¯re really going to become a little drunkard!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and shook her head helplessly. ¡°Just drink a little. I promise I won¡¯t drink too much!¡± Mu Xiaowan stuck out her tongue and poured a glass for everyone before pouring it for herself. Just like the day before, other than Wu Xiaolian who couldn¡¯t drink, everyone else had wine. Picking up the glass, Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes, stood up, and said, ¡°The first glass of wine is to commemorate our acquaintance!¡± Upon hearing this, Wu Xiaolian nodded and picked up her bowl. ¡°I must have a cup of this. It¡¯s great to meet you guys!¡± There was rice soup in her bowl, but no one cared, so they picked up their cups together. After taking a sip of the wine, Mu Xiaowan smacked her lips and smiled. ¡°This is really good wine!¡± ¡°The wine isn¡¯t important. What¡¯s important is that Guang and I got to know you guys. Our days have become much richer!¡± Wu Xiaolian said with a smile. As she spoke, she also turned her head and gave Yang Guang a look. In the end, Yang Guang just chuckled and didn¡¯t say anything. In his opinion, sister-in-law¡¯s words were hinting him to just keep a girl as his wife! However, Yang Guang was thinking in his heart that keeping one of them was not something great. Keeping all three beauties would be amazing! Of course, he had to keep such dirty thoughts in his heart. He couldn¡¯t say it out loud, or he would be spat to death on the spot! Everyone ate and drank. The earthy smell of the wolf meat was removed, and it tasted pretty good. Therefore, the ladies didn¡¯t resist. After tasting the delicious food, they began to eat more. When they were full, the sky was already dark.. Chapter 81 - Good Thing Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Although the temperature in the village was colder than in the city, it was still a little hot in the middle of summer. Since they also drank some alcohol, everyone was sweating a little. So after dinner, the girls wanted to take a shower. However, because there wasn¡¯t much water left, the four of them could only shower in groups of two. As for Yang Guang, he could only use cold water. He didn¡¯t care. When he heard Mu Xiaowan and Qi Yingxue chattering and laughing in the bathroom, Yang Guang felt somewhat titillated. In his mind, he was already imagining the scene of the two girls taking a bath, and he couldn¡¯t help but feel aroused. He felt so tantalized that he was about to lose control! In the end, Yang Guang had no choice but to go to the well quickly and fetch a bucket of water from the well. He poured it directly on himself from head to toe! After the cold well water was poured on him from head to toe, only then did he manage to suppress the lust inside him. In the end, he came out only in a pair of shorts. When Mu Xiaowan and Qi Yingxue saw him after taking a shower, both of them were stunned! After Yang Guang had trained for a period of time, Yang Guang¡¯s muscles were very ripped. He looked chiseled and burly but it wasn¡¯t usually discernable. After freezing for a moment, the two girls blushed. Then, they exchanged glances and quickly ran back into the house. After that, Xu Ling and Wu Xiaolian came out to take a shower. When they saw Yang Guang¡¯s figure, a strange feeling arose in their hearts. After everyone took a shower and changed their clothes, it was only past eight o¡¯clock in the evening, so they weren¡¯t in a hurry to go to bed. Instead, they hung out in the courtyard. There were many mosquitoes in the mountains. Wu Xiaolian lit up a few plates of mosquito incense and placed them by the table to drive away the annoying mosquitoes. While they were chatting, Mu Xiaowan suddenly asked, ¡°Do you guys feel it? It¡¯s extremely hot tonight!¡± ¡°Yeah, I also feel that it¡¯s hotter than usual today. I just finished showering, but I¡¯m sweating again!¡± Xu Ling said. Yang Guang didn¡¯t say anything. He was busy ogling them now! The four girls were all dressed in light clothing. Even Wu Xiaolian had changed into a tank top and shorts! Yang Guang now felt like he was in the middle of a flower bush, where fragrance was emanating all around him. His heart rate had already reached 120! Looking at the beautiful faces of the girls, their perfect bodies, and the smooth thighs under the table, he felt so titillated that he was about to lose control! After a while, seeing that everyone was a little sweaty, Wu Xiaolian stood up and said, ¡°Why don¡¯t I boil some more water for everyone to shower again later?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t trouble yourself. It might get cooler later!¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Okay, the weather today is so weird. Why is it so hot all of a sudden? It¡¯s like we ate something spicy!¡± Wu Xiaolian sat down and said. The speaker made an offhand remark, but the listeners took it to heart! When Yang Guang heard that, an idea flashed through his mind! Therefore, he, who was sitting on the steps at the door, quickly stood up and went to the table. He said in a sullen voice, ¡°There might be something wrong!¡± ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± The girls raised their heads and looked at him. Yang Guang didn¡¯t say anything. He directly took Wu Xiaolian¡¯s hand and checked her pulse. Her heart rate was 120! Xu Ling¡¯s heart rate was also over 100. Following that, Qi Yingxue and Mu Xiaowan¡¯s pulses were checked as well. Yang Guang was instantly speechless. Everyone was the same as him. Their hearts were obviously beating too fast! He knew what the problem was now. Apart from the pine nuts and wolf meat, everything else that they ate today was home-cooked, so those foods were safe. Therefore, it was either the wolf meat or the pine nuts that caused everyone to feel very hot after eating it. Seeing him frown, Wu Xiaolian asked curiously, ¡°Yang Guang, what¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°Everyone feels hot, and your hearts are beating very fast. It might be the wolf meat or the pine nuts that caused it!¡± Yang Guang said Seeing the girls¡¯ surprised expressions, he quickly said, ¡°Don¡¯t be nervous. It¡¯s not a bad thing!¡± ¡°Why?¡± Wu Xiaolian, still very nervous, bit her lip. ¡°Don¡¯t be anxious. I¡¯ll show you again.¡± Yang Guang reached out and grabbed her wrist again. The girls were nervous and their eyes were fixed on his face. A few minutes later, Yang Guang looked up. ¡°Don¡¯t be afraid. It¡¯s actually a good thing!¡± ¡°Then tell us. Can you stop keeping us in suspense?!¡± Mu Xiaowan was a little anxious and said with annoyance. ¡°Hehe, the fever is just the beginning. Later, everyone will have a fever, and then you guys will feel thirsty and have diarrhea!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡± ¡­¡± When the girls heard this, they were all stunned! Mu Xiaowan was even more annoyed. She stood up and glared at Yang Guang. ¡°This is the good thing you mentioned? If you don¡¯t explain clearly, I won¡¯t let you off the hook!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t be agitated. Sit down! Sit down!¡± Yang Guang smiled and patted her shoulder, then he continued, ¡°To tell everyone the truth, we have all eaten a special kind of food. As a result, everyone¡¯s bodies are undergoing a change. Soon, some of the waste and toxins in your bodies will be expelled from your bodies. Then, everyone will be as healthy as a newborn baby!¡± ¡°Really?¡± Hearing this, everyone was stunned. ¡°I¡¯ve checked my sister-in-law¡¯s body. Her body is in this kind of situation. Her blood flow is increasing and some of the impurities in her body are being decomposed. That¡¯s why everyone is getting hot!¡± Yang Guang said and then added, ¡°If you don¡¯t believe me, I can examine you again!¡± ¡°No need. What should we do next?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. ¡°Boil some water to prepare for a bath. Everyone will sweat a lot later, and the impurities in the body will be brought out. It won¡¯t smell good,¡± Yang Guang said. Wu Xiaolian quickly stood up when she heard that. ¡°I¡¯ll boil water!¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay to have a fever, but what about diarrhea?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Then let¡¯s take turns to go to the toilet!¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Mu Xiaowan, Xu Ling, and Qi Yingxue looked at each other and felt a little awkward. ¡°Don¡¯t be nervous. I¡¯ll go out later. If I don¡¯t stay at home, you won¡¯t have to feel awkward since you¡¯re both girls!¡± Yang Guang said. Xu Ling was stunned. She looked at him and asked, ¡°If you won¡¯t be at home, where are you going?¡± ¡°I have to go into the mountain to take a look and find out what is causing the changes in your bodies. If I can find out the reason, it would be a good way to make a fortune!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°You mean you¡¯ll mass market the food we ate?¡± Qi Yingxue immediately understood what he meant. Yang Guang nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. Who doesn¡¯t want their body to be healthy? Once the impurities and residual toxins in the body are expelled, people will definitely be reborn!¡± ¡°That¡¯s a good idea!¡± Qi Yingxue nodded. Then, she raised her head to look at the sky. ¡°But it¡¯s already so late. It¡¯s dark in the mountains. I¡¯m afraid it¡¯s not safe.¡± ¡°It¡¯s fine. I¡¯m not even afraid of a wolf pack. What can hurt me?!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°The most important thing now is to hurry up.. Otherwise, I¡¯m afraid that the longer it takes, the more likely that unexpected incidents will arise!¡± Chapter 82 - Going Into the Mountains At Night Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After reassuring the girls, Yang Guang went into the mountains with a woodcutter and a flashlight. Every household in the village had already rested. No one noticed that a flashlight was flashing around in the mountains. It was also Yang Guang¡¯s first time going into the mountains at night. Other than the places that the flashlight could reach, his surroundings were all dark. No one knew what was in the woods and bushes. If he hadn¡¯t obtained the Method of Divine Farmer, Yang Guang wouldn¡¯t have dared to enter the mountains at night. Now, although he was emboldened because of his skills, his heart was still beating quickly. Occasionally, there would be the cries of nocturnal birds in the forest. Other than that, there were also the cries of various insects and it seemed quite lively. After walking for a long time, Yang Guang returned to the place where he picked up the pine nuts during the day. Soon, he found those three wolves¡¯ corpses. Unfortunately, he came back a little late. At this time, the wolf corpses were only left with a bit of fur. The meat had been eaten by something unknown. Yang Guang suspected the meat of the wolves the most. Because the pine nuts grew underground, and he didn¡¯t see anything unusual when he dug them up, it was unlikely that they had caused the girls¡¯ body changes. These wolves came out of nowhere. He didn¡¯t know where they came from. In the past, he had only heard of such things in the mountains far away. He didn¡¯t expect to see them near his home. This was strange in itself. After searching on the spot and finding nothing, Yang Guang turned his head and looked into the mountains. Since he was already here, he couldn¡¯t go back empty-handed. Therefore, he decided to continue heading into the mountains to see if he could meet see wolves again! If he could, he would kill a few more wolves and carry them back to research them. As he headed west, Yang Guang gradually entered the mountains. He walked for a few hours until his feet felt numb. He didn¡¯t even know how far he had walked. At this moment, it was already midnight. There were tall trees all around him. He couldn¡¯t see the sky above his head, and he couldn¡¯t even tell the direction clearly. Yang Guang thought to himself, this was bad. If this went on, he would get lost! So he quickly stood still and didn¡¯t continue to walk around randomly anymore. After thinking about it, Yang Guang felt that if he went back now, it would be easy for him to get lost. It was better to wait for daybreak. Anyway, there were only two to three hours left before dawn. After finding a big tree, Yang Guang sat down cross-legged. Since he had nothing to do, he decided to cultivate for a while and wait until daybreak. However, he didn¡¯t expect to hear a rustling sound just as he was meditating. Yang Guang opened his eyes. His surroundings were pitch black. He could only feel that the sound came from more than ten meters in front of him. It was as if something was coming from the fallen leaves. He didn¡¯t dare to turn on his flashlight. He could only watch with his eyes wide open. Unfortunately, he could only see a blurry shadow moving forward. He couldn¡¯t see what it was at all. Yang Guang held his breath and watched. What passed by in the forest wasn¡¯t an animal, but a large pack! Judging from the approximate height of the shadows, it was very likely to be a wolves pack! Yang Guang had a bad feeling. This wasn¡¯t just a few wolves. There were at least dozens of them! His previous thoughts were instantly overturned. He didn¡¯t want to fight a pack of wolves while unable to see anything in the middle of the night! Therefore, he tried his best to control his breathing and not make any sound so as to avoid being discovered by the pack of wolves. Fortunately, those wolves were all hurrying on their way and didn¡¯t even look in his direction. Otherwise, with their eyesight, they would be able to discover him in an instant! After about twenty minutes, the wolf pack passed. Yang Guang heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, he was secretly shocked. He didn¡¯t know what the wolves were doing and why they were traveling through the forest at night. As his curiosity rose, he couldn¡¯t help but want to find out what was going on. However, the wolf pack was a little terrifying after all, so after contemplating for a while, Yang Guang decided to follow them. Since he couldn¡¯t turn on his flashlight, he slowly walked into the mountains in the dark. Perhaps because he was lucky, after walking for a while, a ray of light suddenly appeared in front of him. Then, Yang Guang found himself in an open field in the forest. The terrain here was low, and there was an open field the size of a football field. Not a single tree grew on it. Because it wasn¡¯t a full moon, the moonlight wasn¡¯t very strong, but it was still able to let Yang Guang see the open field clearly. In the center of the empty space was a pond. No one knew how deep the water was. The wolves that he saw earlier were all gathered around the pond and drinking water with their heads lowered! Even though they were far away, Yang Guang could still hear the sounds of the wolves tongues slurping up the water! ¡°Good heavens, there are at least a hundred wolves here!¡± Yang Guang was stunned as he watched. After Yang Guang watched for a few minutes, the wolves drank some water by the pond and squatted there for a while before leaving in an orderly manner. Yang Guang was very puzzled. Could there be something good in the pond? The reason he thought so was because there were many small streams and rivers in the mountain. Why would a pack of wolves come all the way here to drink water? Therefore, Yang Guang quickly came to the conclusion that there must be something off with this pond! However, just as he was about to go and check it out, rustling sounds could be heard from the surrounding bushes again! Yang Guang felt his scalp tingle when he heard that. He thought to himself, ¡°Oh no, I¡¯m surrounded!¡± Therefore, without saying anything else, he hugged the tree trunk beside him and climbed up quickly! When he reached the height of four to five meters above the tree trunk, a dark shadow passed through his feet and crawled towards the pond. When he lowered his head to take a closer look, Yang Guang¡¯s body trembled and he was stunned! This time, it wasn¡¯t a wolf, but a snake! Hundreds of snakes of different sizes swam to the side of the pond. They were actually going to drink water! Yang Guang was stunned. What kind of magic did the water have? He didn¡¯t dare to get down from the tree. He found a branch and sat down. He watched quietly until the snakes finished drinking the water. They stayed by the side of the pond for a while before leaving again. Speechless, Yang Guang decided to stay put for now. This place was only 50 to 60 meters away from the pond. However, if he went over now and another wild beast went to drink the water, he would have nowhere to hide. Yang Guang decided to rest against the tree trunk. He thought to himself that he wouldn¡¯t move until dawn. Just like that, time passed minute by minute. After that, he saw a few more waves of creatures. There were rabbits, pheasants, and dozens of roe deers that came over to drink water. When the sky gradually brightened up, the edge of the pond finally quieted down. Yang Guang waited for another half an hour. The visibility around him was almost the same as during the day. Only then did he slowly get down from the tree and walk towards the pond. When he got closer, he saw that the soil beside the pond was covered with footprints left by various animals. Yang Guang was stunned as he looked at it. The water in the pond was very clear. He could see the bottom at a glance and it didn¡¯t feel very deep. It was only about a meter or so. Just as Yang Guang was feeling curious, he suddenly heard a thump behind him.. When he turned around, Yang Guang was instantly dumbfounded! Chapter 83 - Black Stone Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Two black bears that were more than two meters tall were the ones that were making the loud footsteps! Yang Guang felt his scalp go numb when he saw this. A chill ran down from his back to his neck and he froze. Seeing that the black bears were running towards him, Yang Guang reacted quick-wittedly and jumped into the pond immediately! There was nowhere else to hide and he couldn¡¯t possibly just let himself be torn apart by the two bears. After entering the water, he felt a cold sensation spread throughout his entire body. However, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t care less anymore. He quickly swam to the deepest part of the water! His swimming was like a dog paddling. He learned to swim in the small river at the entrance of his house during childhood. He didn¡¯t expect that it would come in handy now. Actually, the two bears weren¡¯t here for Yang Guang. They were just here to drink water. When they saw him, they habitually pounced on him to hunt. Now that Yang Guang was in the water, the two bears gave up on him. They lowered their heads and started to drink the water. Yang Guang watched from the center of the pond and was speechless. It wasn¡¯t that there weren¡¯t any rivers nearby. Why did all the animals come here to drink water? Why? After drinking the water here, those wolves¡¯ meat actually had the effect of helping people strengthen their physique. Why was that? With confusion, Yang Guang lowered his head to look at the bottom of the pond and suddenly plunged in! The water in the pond was extremely clear. Even if he opened his eyes, he didn¡¯t feel uncomfortable. He searched through the sand and stones at the bottom. In the end, Yang Guang quickly discovered something very special! This black fist-sized stone didn¡¯t feel cold when he touched it. Instead, it felt warm! As soon as he touched it, Yang Guang knew that there was something off about it, so he quickly put it into his pocket. After that, he rummaged around, but he didn¡¯t find anything special. He couldn¡¯t breathe properly, so he quickly gave up and resurfaced. After he took two deep breaths, he saw that the two bears had already left. He could still see their backs! Yang Guang heaved a sigh of relief. He thought to himself that it was good that they had left. Otherwise, he would have been trapped here. He didn¡¯t know when he would be able to leave! He raised his head and looked at the sky. The sun was about to rise, so he quickly swam back to the shore. He didn¡¯t care that his body was wet. He ran all the way towards the east! After being out for an entire night, his family must have been anxious. Therefore, Yang Guang didn¡¯t slow down in the forest and ran all the way. When the sun had completely risen, he had already returned to the familiar forest. When he arrived at the village entrance, his clothes were also dry. Coincidentally, he saw Sun Wannian coming out with the sheep. ¡°Hey, Little Guang, what are you doing so early in the morning? Why is your hair all wet?¡± Sun Wannian asked. ¡°I went into the mountain to take a look around. Mr. Sun, there have been wolves in the mountains recently. You have to be careful when you herd the sheep!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°It¡¯s okay. I won¡¯t go far and I¡¯ll just be nearby. I shouldn¡¯t be able to encounter them!¡± Sun Wannian smiled and continued, ¡°But it¡¯s strange. I did hear some wolf howls when I was herding the sheep recently. Why did they come out of the mountain?¡± ¡°Anyway, you just have to be careful!¡± Yang Guang said and quickly went home. After Yang Guang entered the courtyard, Wu Xiaolian, who was sitting at the door, stood up and cried out in surprise. She quickly ran over! Following that, Qi Yingxue, Xu Ling, and Mu Xiaowan also ran out of the house. Finally, Yaya and Little Guang also rushed to the door. After he hadn¡¯t seen the girls for a night, Yang Guang¡¯s heart warmed up when he saw their faces! Then, he grinned. ¡°I made everyone worried, didn¡¯t I?¡± ¡°You rascal, why did you take so long to come back? If you had stayed any longer, we were going to go into the mountains to look for you!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. Seeing that her eyes were a little red, Yang Guang was a little surprised, but at the same time, he was very touched, so, he smiled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t mention it. Last night, I encountered more than a hundred wolves in the mountains and saw a very bizarre phenomenon, so I was delayed for a while!¡± After saying that, without waiting for everyone to ask about the specific situation, he looked at the four people in front of him and said with some surprise, ¡°No way, you guys have changed quite a lot!¡± ¡°Have we?¡± Seeing that he was very surprised, the girls looked at each other. ¡°Of course!¡± Yang Guang looked at them and said, ¡°You guys seem to be in good spirits, and you guys look radiant. Most importantly, how did your skin become crystal clear?¡± As he said this, he reached out and pinched Mu Xiaowan¡¯s face! ¡°You¡¯re so annoying!¡± Mu Xiaowan slapped his hand away and said angrily, ¡°Even if our skin got better, it¡¯s not for you to pinch!¡± ¡°Perhaps it¡¯s like what you said last night. We went through a lot last night, but when we woke up after sleeping, we felt that our bodies had become much more agile and stronger!¡± Qi Yingxue said. Then she asked, ¡°Have you found the reason?¡± ¡°More or less. Don¡¯t stay outside. Let¡¯s talk inside!¡± Yang Guang smiled mysteriously and walked into the house quickly. He came to Wu Xiaolian¡¯s room. After everyone came, he took out the black stone. ¡°I found this in the pond.¡± After Yang Guang told them what had happened, the girls weren¡¯t very interested in the black stone. On the contrary, when they heard that all animals in the mountains went to the pond to drink water, they immediately felt very curious. ¡°Then why don¡¯t you bring some water back? You can bring it back for testing!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°I¡¯ve already taken this stone back. Do you still need to pour water?¡± Yang Guang played with the black stone in his hand. It felt very comfortable and warm to the touch. Then, everyone took it over to have a look, but no one could tell what this stone was and how it made the water in the pond taste good. In the end, Yang Guang had no choice but to get up and go outside. The Ganoderma was still soaking in the water tank. The drinking water in the house had become very sweet because of this thing, so it had been soaking in it the whole time. Yang Guang thought for a moment and directly threw the stone in his hand into the water tank. If his guess was really right, then the water in the house would soon become even more delicious to drink, right? No one knew how long this process would take, so he planned to ignore it for now and talk about it later. But unexpectedly, as soon as he turned around, he heard the sound of water splashing behind him. When everyone came out and saw it, they were all stunned! The Ganoderma in the water tank started to expand and it had already risen up to the surface! ¡°Oh no!¡± Yang Guang shouted and reached out his hand to take out the stone. Unfortunately, the Ganoderma was growing rapidly and his hand couldn¡¯t reach in at all! Seeing that the Ganoderma was growing bigger and bigger and was already more than half a meter above the tank, Yang Guang became anxious all of a sudden! It didn¡¯t matter if the water tank was broken, but what if this thing kept growing and broke through the house?! So he immediately kicked it! The water tank, which was made of clay, was directly kicked into pieces and the water gushed out! Chapter 84 - Selling the Ganoderma Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The Ganoderma, which had expanded to the size of a ball, landed on the ground. It shook and finally stopped growing. The girls were all dumbfounded. They disregarded the water on the ground and ran forward. ¡°How could this be?¡± The Ganoderma, which was only the size of a basketball before, had now become something taller than Yaya. It took up half of the floor of the outer room! Yang Guang clicked his tongue. ¡°Good lord, this black stone is really amazing!¡± He turned around and retrieved the stone from under the water tank. He carefully put it into his pocket. ¡°I have to take good care of this!¡± ¡°Can it promote the growth of plants?¡± Xu Ling asked. She and Yang Guang had found this Ganoderma together. Now, since it had suddenly become so big, she naturally thought of something. Yang Guang nodded. ¡°Looks like it. I¡¯ll try using the well water later. If it really can promote growth, then I won¡¯t be far from making a fortune!¡± When they heard this, Mu Xiaowan and Qi Yingxue, who had originally planned to go home, didn¡¯t want to leave! However, before doing the experiment, everyone first cleaned up the ground. The broken water tank and the water on the ground were all cleaned up. However, this Ganoderma was tricky to deal with for everyone. Because this thing was too big and slippery, it wasn¡¯t easy to carry it away! In the end, Yang Guang said helplessly, ¡°How about this? Since it has grown so big, there¡¯s no place to put it. Cut off a small piece and keep it. We¡¯ll see if the rest can be sold!¡± ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll help you make a call and ask!¡± Qi Yingxue took out her phone and immediately called Chen Zhiyuan. He had many connections. With his help, he wouldn¡¯t have to worry about selling it. As expected, when Chen Zhiyuan heard that Yang Guang had a Ganoderma at home, his interest was immediately piqued! Then, he immediately asked, ¡°How old and how heavy is the Ganoderma?¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Qi Yingxue smiled bitterly and turned to look at the big pile on the ground. ¡°It¡¯s hard to describe how big and heavy it is. Anyway, if someone wants it, it¡¯s best to bring a pickup truck over. Otherwise, it won¡¯t fit!¡± ¡± ¡­¡± Chen Zhiyuan was dumbfounded. Only a pickup truck could fit it. How big was it? Bigger than a cow? Thinking of this, he hurriedly said, ¡°Okay, I got it. Regardless of whether or not anyone wants it, I¡¯ll go over and take a look first!¡± The old man was anxious. He had heard of Ganoderma before, but he had never seen it with his own eyes. It was said that this thing was very valuable, so he had to see it for himself! After the phone call, the Ganoderma matter was put aside. Yang Guang went to the well and fetched a bucket of water, then put the black stone in. Everyone stood by the well and dazedly watched for a while. Then, Mu Xiaowan raised her head and looked at everyone. ¡°Don¡¯t you guys think it¡¯s strange? We look like idiots watching a stone soaking in water!¡± Her words made everyone burst into laughter, and none of them could hold it in! Then, Qi Yingxue said with a smile, ¡°If it were anyone else, it might be a very silly behavior, but Yang Guang is becoming more and more mysterious. There¡¯s nothing weird about him doing anything!¡± Yang Guang chuckled when he heard that. ¡°I¡¯ll take that as a compliment!¡± ¡°You¡¯re so full of yourself!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes at him and asked, ¡°How much longer do you need to soak in this water?¡± ¡°About ten minutes. You can try it now!¡± Yang Guang took out a stone and put it back into his pocket. Then, he carried the bucket to the vegetable garden. There were some lettuce, melons, cucumbers and beans in the vegetable garden now. Yang Guang thought about it and decided to pour the bucket of water under the cucumber seedlings. There was no other reason but because he loved to eat this! After the bucket of water was poured, everyone ignored the scorching sun and stood around the vegetable field while quietly watching. But as time passed, the cucumbers on the shelf didn¡¯t change at all! ¡°Maybe I¡¯m wrong, or maybe the cucumbers are just ordinary plants, so the effect will be slower. Everyone should sit in a cool place!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°I think there will definitely be changes. It¡¯s just that it¡¯s not the right time yet!¡± Qi Yingxue firmly believed that Yang Guang would definitely be able to create a miracle. Because what she experienced last night was already a miracle! But waiting under the sun was indeed unsuitable, so everyone could only leave the vegetable garden and go to the shade in the courtyard. After sitting down, Yang Guang looked at everyone. ¡°If that stone is really the reason for the change in everyone¡¯s physique, you guys must eat more of my vegetables in the future. Then, you guys will slowly become even more beautiful!¡± ¡°Screw you!¡± Mu Xiaowan glared at him, but her heart was filled with warmth. Yang Guang¡¯s words sounded like a joke, but in fact, it was a perfect kiss-up. The girls were all delighted when they heard it. And he was right. After last night, their skin had really changed a lot. It was much better than before. This was obvious to everyone! As they chatted and laughed, about an hour passed. Then, two cars drove into Qingshan Village. After they asked around, the cars arrived at Yang Guang¡¯s door. There were already two cars at the door. Now that there were two more, it became crowded outside. Because of this, the attention of many people in the village were attracted. They all came out of the house to see what was going on. Chen Zhiyuan got out of the car with Mr. Li¡¯s help. Then, he walked into Yang Guang¡¯s yard and looked at the people who came to welcome him. ¡°Things are quite lively in your home!¡± ¡°Hello, Mr. Chen!¡± Mu Xiaowan quickly greeted Xu Ling. Chen Zhiyuan nodded and replied. Then, he asked impatiently, ¡°Where is the Ganoderma?¡± ¡°It¡¯s in the house. Please follow me!¡± After saying that, Yang Guang turned around and went back into the house with the old man. Seeing the huge lump on the ground, Chen Zhiyuan immediately widened his eyes in shock! ¡°This, this¡­¡± After saying this, he couldn¡¯t finish his words! Qi Yingxue and Mu Xiaowan looked at each other and revealed a knowing smile. The old man was shocked when he saw such an old Ganoderma. Sure enough, after being stunned for a moment, Chen Zhiyuan said to Yang Guang, ¡°I want this thing!¡± ¡°Okay, I don¡¯t have any place to put it at home. Sir, go back and find a bigger place to soak it in the water. That water has a therapeutic effect. You don¡¯t need to drink tonic anymore,¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. Chen Zhiyuan was even more surprised when he heard that. He quickly asked, ¡°How much do you plan to sell it for?¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Yang Guang didn¡¯t know what to say, so he smiled and said, ¡°What? Just take it as my gift to you!¡± ¡°That won¡¯t do!¡± Chen Zhiyuan shook his head a few times when he heard that, then, he said, ¡°There has never been an exact price for this thing. Although we aren¡¯t outsiders, I can¡¯t take advantage of you. How about this, I¡¯ll take it first. I¡¯ll ask someone when I go back and give you the money!¡± ¡°That¡¯s fine!¡± Yang Guang smiled while thinking to himself that the old man didn¡¯t lack money, so he definitely wouldn¡¯t let him down! Although he had promised to give it to Chen Zhiyuan, the transportation of the Ganoderma had become a problem because it couldn¡¯t be carried away! Chapter 85 - Cucumbers Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio In the house, only Yang Guang, Chen Zhiyuan, and Mr. Li were there. Even with the pickup truck driver outside, the four men couldn¡¯t lift this thing! In the end, they were helpless. Seeing that there were many villagers watching outside, Yang Guang went out and shouted, ¡°Everyone, come and help!¡± The people of Qingshan Village were very down-to-earth people. As soon as they heard that they needed help, they all rushed into the courtyard. Although the majority of them were women, most of them were women who were quite quick-witted. After a flurry of discussion, everyone suggested that they use ropes to go under the Ganoderma and then set up a few wooden sticks to lift it together! Soon, there were more than ten burly people standing in the room. Everyone used their strength together and rolled the Ganoderma onto the rope net that was laid out outside. The next step was simple. There was a rope tied around the Ganoderma, and the huge Ganoderma was wrapped up. Then, more than ten people carried a few wooden sticks that were as thick as an arm and carried the Ganoderma onto the pickup truck while shouting! Based on a rough estimation, this Ganoderma was at least a thousand kilogram! They only found out what it was during the process of carrying it. After it was loaded onto the truck, some curious people asked Yang Guang how much the Ganoderma was sold for! Yang Guang couldn¡¯t answer, so he could only tell them that he didn¡¯t ask for the money and that it was given to the old man. As for whether the people believed it or not, it didn¡¯t matter. Chen Zhiyuan was in a hurry to find a place to put the Ganoderma, so he didn¡¯t stay long and left after saying goodbye. The curious people also quickly dispersed, leaving Yang Guang and the others at home. After a while, everyone sat in the shade to rest. At this time, Little Guang suddenly raised its head with an alert look in its eyes, and let out a low roar! ¡°Gee, this little fella is actually starting to care about someone other than herself for the first time!¡± Xu Ling laughed. ¡°Little Guang, good job. Did you discover something?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. Yang Guang rolled his eyes when he heard that! But before he could speak, he heard a cracking sound in the vegetable garden. Then, the cucumber rack collapsed! Everyone hurriedly got up and rushed into the vegetable garden. When they got closer, Yang Guang and the others were all dumbfounded. The cucumber rack collapsed was because the cucumber on it had grown too big and the cucumber rack got crushed by its weight! The small cucumber that was only as thick as a thumb before was now the size of an adult¡¯s arm! A single cucumber weighed several kilograms. If dozens of them were added together, the small wooden stick would definitely not be able to withstand it! When she saw such a large cucumber, not only was Wu Xiaolian not surprised, but she smiled bitterly instead. ¡°Darn it. I haven¡¯t even eaten a few yet, but all of them have become cucumber seeds now!¡± Usually, a cucumber like this would be left on the cucumber rack. It would grow old and big so that the seeds inside could be kept for planting tomorrow. When she saw that the entire cucumber rack was full of cucumber seeds, Wu Xiaolian was at a loss for words However, Yang Guang didn¡¯t think that this cucumber couldn¡¯t be eaten, so he raised his head and said, ¡°You¡¯re overthinking it. The cucumbers with seeds are all yellow, and this one is still dark green, so it should be edible!¡± After saying that, he reached out and plucked one. With a crack, he broke it open. The seeds inside were still transparent and didn¡¯t age at all! Then, Yang Guang took a bite, and his face immediately revealed a pleasantly surprised expression. ¡°Delicious!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t play tricks. How could such a big cucumber still not be old?¡± Mu Xiaowan had a look of disbelief! Yang Guang handed the cucumber in his hand to her. ¡°If you don¡¯t believe me, try it!¡± ¡°It must be very sour!¡± Mu Xiaowan resisted and took a step back. However, Qi Yingxue didn¡¯t think so. She reached out to take it and took a small bite. Then, a look of surprise appeared in her eyes. ¡°It¡¯s so delicious! It¡¯s crisp and sweet!¡± Then, Xu Ling and Wu Xiaolian both tried it and said that it was delicious. Only then did Mu Xiaowan let down her guard. She took half of the cucumber in her hand and took a bite. The cucumber was sweet and juicy. It was even more delicious than the fruit cucumber they had in the restaurant! It had the unique taste of a cucumber. After she took a bite, the aftertaste lingered in her mouth. The taste was simply too delicious! Then, an interesting scene happened. Everyone had half a cucumber in their hand and began to chew on it. Little Guang was circling around everyone on the ground and looked up with anticipation. In the end, Yang Guang had no choice but to give it half a cucumber. Then, Little Guang obediently squatted on the ground to chew it. Little Guang¡¯s appetite was small, so it couldn¡¯t even finish half a cucumber. Soon, it was full. Not only that, but because the cucumber was full of water, Little Guang didn¡¯t even need to drink water after eating the cucumber. After eating the delicious cucumber, everyone still wanted more. At this time, Mu Xiaowan suddenly asked a question! Looking at Yang Guang, she asked quizzically, ¡°Who exactly are you?¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Yang Guang was stunned. Seeing the bewilderment in her eyes, he answered seriously, ¡°Obviously, I¡¯m a man!¡± ¡°Bah, be serious!¡± Mu Xiaowan glared at him, then, she said, ¡°From the time I met you until now, you have always been able to give people surprises. You have amazing medical skills, and you are super skilled in martial arts. Now, you have produced a Ganoderma and such a big cucumber. How on earth did you do it?¡± Her question was what everyone wanted to ask. Even Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling, Wu Xiaolian felt that it was quite strange. In the past, Yang Guang stayed in the clinic at the entrance of the village every day and rarely went out. He had always been unknown. The villagers would only think of him occasionally when they had a headache or a fever! But now, not only did he have a few beautiful girls by his side, but he also got to know the big shots in the city and earned so much money! Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Yang Guang smiled and shrugged his shoulders, but his mind was spinning rapidly! He was thinking whether he should tell everyone about the fact that he had obtained the Method of Divine Farmer! After thinking about it, he felt that he couldn¡¯t easily tell anyone about this, so Yang Guang smiled and said to Mu Xiaowan, ¡°This question is actually very easy to explain, but for me to say it, there must be a condition!¡± Mu Xiaowan looked at him curiously and asked, ¡°What condition?¡± ¡°I have to tell the person closest to me. If you want to know, you must first marry me!¡± Yang Guang smiled and said. ¡°Bah, dream on!¡± Mu Xiaowan was already used to his teasing. She rolled her eyes and couldn¡¯t be bothered with him anymore. Seeing that he refused to say it, Xu Ling didn¡¯t think about asking further, so she changed the topic. ¡°Oh right, Yang Guang, since that stone is very effective on the growth of plants, use it when you plant your vegetables in a greenhouse!¡± ¡°I was thinking so too!¡± Yang Guang nodded, and then took a deep breath. ¡°After some time, when the cucumber is as thick as an arm, the bean horns are as thick as a rolling pin, and the eggplant is as thick as a winter melon, it will be hard for me not to make a fortune!¡± Mu Xiaowan smiled when she heard that, and then said seriously, ¡°Stop daydreaming about it. It¡¯s easy to grow it, but it¡¯s hard to sell it. If you don¡¯t believe me, you¡¯ll know when you try it on the market!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. It¡¯s very big, which will make people think that it¡¯s old. No one will be willing to buy it!¡± Wu Xiaolian said. Hearing their words, Qi Yingxue smiled and said, ¡°If others don¡¯t buy it, I will! The vegetables that Yang Guang grows are so delicious. I will simply process it and promote it to the customers in the restaurant. I believe that they will be full of praise when they eat it!¡± ¡°Sis, you really treat him so well. But can your restaurant withstand such a large sales volume?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked with a nonchalant smile.. Chapter 86 - The Forest Was On Fire Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Seeing Mu Xiaowan¡¯s gaze, Qi Yingxue gave her a sidelong glance, and then said indifferently, ¡°It definitely won¡¯t be a problem to sell it, but you weren¡¯t thinking about this problem when you asked this question, right?¡± ¡°Uh, sis, don¡¯t talk nonsense!¡± Mu Xiaowan instantly blushed. Xu Ling and Wu Xiaolian, not understanding what was going on, both froze. Yang Guang was also a little confused. He looked at her in shock. He didn¡¯t know why this girl suddenly became so bashful?! Qi Yingxue knew clearly. She smiled and said, ¡°I¡¯m just joking with you. What are you so worked up?!¡± After laughing, she saw that it was getting late. She turned to Yang Guang and said, ¡°it¡¯s getting late. Although I don¡¯t really want to leave, I really have a lot of things to do at home. I have to go back!¡± ¡°It¡¯s enough for the subordinates to do the work. Why do you have to keep an eye on them? Just stay for another night!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°The restaurant business is at a critical period now. I can¡¯t just neglect it. We¡¯ll talk about it when things are stable in the future!¡± Qi Yingxue said and stood up. Seeing that he couldn¡¯t keep them, Yang Guang had no choice but to give up, so he stood up to send them off. Mu Xiaowan was about to leave, so everyone sent the two of them to the door. Seeing them get into the car and leave, Yang Guang actually felt a sense of emptiness in his heart. He turned around to look at Xu Ling and Wu Xiaolian. The two of them had the same expression, and they were a little reluctant to see them leave. After eating their fill of cucumbers, everyone didn¡¯t have lunch. After tidying up the house, they went back to their rooms to take their lunch breaks. Yang Guang originally wanted to sit down and meditate, but he was so distracted that he couldn¡¯t calm down at all. Therefore, he quietly left the house and went to the back mountain. When he went into the cave, he saw that the Tianma had already sprouted. It was growing very well, so Yang Guang was relieved. These days, the Tianma had been harvested, and the vegetable greenhouse was almost ready to produce. When the time came, he could make a huge profit. However, this was still a drop in the bucket for Yang Guang. It wasn¡¯t enough to do anything big. Just the road construction alone was worth ten million. When would he be able to earn so much money by relying on the greenhouse and Tianma? Yang Guang went to the entrance of the cave and found a flat rock to sit on. He fell into deep thought. Obtaining the Method of Divine Farmer was a blessing from heaven. However, in reality, he hadn¡¯t really used it a few times. Other than for treating people, he hadn¡¯t used it for anything else! The knowledge contained in the Method of Divine Farmer was all-encompassing. Just treating people wasn¡¯t enough. If he wanted to make use of it, he had to start with animals and plants. Just as Yang Guang was thinking about the future, the sound of a gong suddenly came from the village. It was loud, especially clear in the middle of summer afternoon. After standing up, Yang Guang heard someone shouting in the village. He quickly left the cave entrance and went home. As soon as he reached the village entrance, he saw people coming out from every household. The person who was knocking on the gong was Sun Wannian, who was tending the sheep. Yang Guang quickly stepped forward. ¡°Mr. Sun, what are you shouting for?¡± ¡°The mountain is on fire!¡± Sun Wannian¡¯s expression was ashen, and his clothes were tattered. Hearing his words, everyone in the village turned around. Only then did they realize that there was a valley in the west where black smoke was rising. It was summer now, and the vegetation in the mountain was at its peak. Logically speaking, there shouldn¡¯t be a fire. Therefore, everyone felt that it was strange and didn¡¯t know what had happened. At this time, Xu Ling also came out of her house. When she approached to ask about the situation, her expression changed. Then, she looked at Yang Guang and asked, ¡°What should we do?¡± ¡°There¡¯s no other choice. The village is filled with the elderly, women, and children. It¡¯s more dangerous to enter the mountain to put out the fire. We might as well wait for the forest fire to come!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°But, but my sheep are still in the mountains. I¡¯m afraid they¡¯ve all been burned to death!¡± Sun Wannian said. Hearing this, Yang Guang, who had originally thought nothing of it, felt his heart sink! Mr. Sun¡¯s family had raised more than thirty sheep. These sheep were his lifeline. If they were all burned to death, the losses would be quite heavy. Yang Guang was kind-hearted, so hearing this, he could only say, ¡°Then how about this, Mr. Sun, I¡¯ll go into the mountains with you. We¡¯ll see if the sheep are surrounded by fire. If they¡¯re really surrounded by fire, there¡¯s nothing we can do. If there¡¯s still a chance, I¡¯ll help you drive the sheep out!¡± ¡°Alright then.¡± Sun Wannian initially wanted to return to the village to ask for help, but when Yang Guang said it just now, he understood. Indeed, the village was full of women and children. If they were asked to put out the fire, wouldn¡¯t that be the same as sending them to death? If anyone was burned to death.., he wouldn¡¯t be able to afford the consequences! Now that he heard Yang Guang say that he would help him, Sun Wannian immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Hope was rekindled in his heart. Just as the two of them were about to leave, Xu Ling immediately said, ¡°I¡¯ll go too!¡± ¡°You don¡¯t have to go. Stay in the village and wait for the fire-fighting team!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°No, that area is under the jurisdiction of Qingshan Village. I have the responsibility to put out the fire!¡± Xu Ling¡¯s expression was serious, as if it was useless to say anything. Yang Guang was helpless. He sighed and said, ¡°It¡¯s okay to go, but you can¡¯t run around. You have to follow me!¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Xu Ling nodded and agreed. The villagers urged the three of them to be careful, and then watched them enter the mountain. The villagers weren¡¯t very sharp, nor were there people who had courage like Xu Ling, so only the three of them entered the mountain. They jogged all the way into the mountain. Yang Guang and Sun Wannian were fine, but Xu Ling was a girl after all, so after running less than a kilometer, she was a little out of breath. But in order not to drag the two of them down, she continued to follow behind and didn¡¯t slow down her pace. After entering the deep mountains and crossing the savage ditch, they saw that the fire field wasn¡¯t far ahead in the col. At this time, the fire had already started. Black smoke soared into the sky, and from afar, one could already smell the smell of firewood burning. Yang Guang secretly marveled in his heart. To be able to light green trees and weeds, what kind of fire was this? As they moved forward, he turned around and glanced at Xu Ling. He noticed that her face was flushed and she was panting. Yang Guang stretched out his hand and said, ¡°I¡¯ll hold your hand!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Xu Ling didn¡¯t say anything and stretched out her hand. Holding her soft little hand in his palm, Yang Guang continued to walk quickly into the mountain. At this moment, the most anxious person was Sun Wannian. Because he had been herding sheep in the mountain all year round, in the forest, it was as if he was walking on flat ground as he rushed to the front. The three of them soon arrived at the burning ravine. From afar, they saw the flames flickering in the forest. The smoke lingered and enveloped the entire forest. ¡°Mr. Sun, where are your sheep?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°I don¡¯t know either. When I was herding the sheep, I suddenly saw a flame. I was so scared that I turned around and ran. I didn¡¯t see where the sheep went after that!¡± Sun Wannian said. Yang Guang was speechless. He forced a smile and said, ¡°Then we can only count on luck in that case.¡± However, just as he finished speaking, a bleating sound came from the forest far away! ¡°My sheep!¡± When Sun Wannian heard it, he shouted and rushed over! ¡°Hey, don¡¯t be anxious. Be careful of being surrounded by the fire!¡± Yang Guang shouted.. Seeing that he didn¡¯t listen, he could only stomp his feet and let go of Xu Ling¡¯s hand to chase after Sun Wannian! Chapter 87 - Being Trapped Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang¡¯s thought was that if he let go of Xu Ling¡¯s hand, she would just stand there and wait. She wouldn¡¯t follow him. Unexpectedly, when he caught up with Mr. Sun, he heard rustling sounds behind him. He turned around and saw that Xu Ling had also followed him! ¡°Aren¡¯t you adding to the trouble? I can¡¯t take care of the two of you!¡± Yang Guang said anxiously. ¡°It¡¯s okay. I¡¯ll take care of myself. With one more person, you guys have one more helper!¡± Xu Ling said and pointed to the front. ¡°Look, the sheep are there!¡± Following the direction of her finger, Yang Guang saw a few sheep. The forest fire was aggressive, and the sheep had been scattered. Their desire to survive had caused them to run around the fire. Now, they had run to the edge of the fire. Sun Wannian saw his sheep and immediately rushed over without caring about anything else. Yang Guang was just about to catch up when he stopped in his footsteps. He turned around and said to Xu Ling, ¡°Don¡¯t move. I¡¯ll go with him to drive the sheep. Listen to me!¡± After saying that, he quickly chased after them, leaving Xu Ling standing alone in the valley. Hearing his words, Xu Ling stopped and didn¡¯t follow him. However, as she watched Yang Guang leave, she still shouted, ¡°Be careful!¡± ¡°Got it!¡± After saying that, Yang Guang followed Sun Wannian into the forest. The fire on the left side of the hillside was raging. It had the momentum of burning into the valley. If the bushes and weeds in the valley were ignited, it would connect to the right side of the hillside. This way, it would be difficult for Yang Guang and Sun Wannian to come out. After seeing the situation clearly, Xu Ling was anxious. At the same time, she was secretly praying that the two of them were okay. After about ten minutes, a few sheep ran out of the forest. Soon, one after another, sheep came out, but there was no sign of Mr. Sun and Yang Guang. Xu Ling was anxious because the fire on the left side had reached the bottom of the valley! In her anxiety, she also forgot Yang Guang¡¯s warning and quickly rushed into the forest! In the end, she ran into Sun Wannian. There were some black marks on the old man¡¯s face. It was obvious that he had been burned. Seeing that he was alone, Xu Ling hurriedly asked, ¡°Where¡¯s Yang Guang?¡± ¡°He told me to come out first. There were two sheep that were scared and ran into the mountain!¡± Sun Wannian said. Xu Ling was speechless and stomped her feet in anger. Was Yang Guang stupid? Which was more important, human life or a sheep¡¯s life? She couldn¡¯t vent her anger on Mr. Sun, so she could only say, ¡°You can go out first and drive the sheep far away. I¡¯ll go get him!¡± ¡°Be careful!¡± Sun Wannian shouted and quickly went to chase the sheep. Xu Ling rushed into the forest and shouted Yang Guang¡¯s name as she ran. She felt extremely nervous. She suddenly realized that if something happened to Yang Guang in this fire, she definitely wouldn¡¯t be able to accept it! What kind of feeling was this? She didn¡¯t have the mood to ponder it. Anyway, her heart was filled with Yang Guang. She hoped to find him as soon as possible and know that he was safe and sound! She hurriedly ran for a while and soon reached the depths of the valley. Then, she finally heard Yang Guang¡¯s voice! At the same time, a wave of heat came from behind her. Xu Ling turned around and looked. She was so scared that her face turned pale and her legs went soft! The heat wave was brought by the raging flames. The forest that she passed by earlier was now surrounded by flames! Seeing this scene, Xu Ling knew that she couldn¡¯t get out. Her legs went soft and she sat on the ground! In the blink of an eye, footsteps sounded from behind her. Yang Guang, whose face was charred, ran over and grabbed her arm. ¡°Don¡¯t be afraid. Follow me!¡± Panic and nervousness made Xu Ling¡¯s legs go soft, so she stumbled a little. Seeing this, Yang Guang directly carried her by the waist and rushed into the valley! The heat wave was rolling, and thick smoke surrounded them. The flames were about to ignite the trees and weeds in the valley! If all the trees were set on fire, Xu Ling and Yang Guang would definitely die! However, after running for a few dozen meters, Xu Ling suddenly heard the cries of the sheep! She turned around and saw an empty space in front of her. There were a few sheep standing there while bleating. ¡°Don¡¯t be afraid. We won¡¯t die!¡± Yang Guang said and carried her to the empty space. Then, they came to a puddle. This was a small pond formed by a stream in the mountains. There weren¡¯t many trees around it, only a few weeds had surrounded the pond. The heat wave behind them was getting stronger and stronger. Yang Guang couldn¡¯t be bothered with the few sheep anymore. He carried Xu Ling and jumped into the water! A cool feeling washed over him, and Xu Ling¡¯s heart instantly relaxed. But after her entire body was submerged in the water, she couldn¡¯t help but shiver. ¡°The stream water is cooler. You¡¯ll get used to it later!¡± Yang Guang was still carrying her. The two of them were sitting in the water. Xu Ling didn¡¯t let go either. As she sat in his arms, she felt a sense of assurance. Then, Yang Guang looked at her and asked, ¡°Why did you follow me in?¡± ¡°I was worried about you and wanted to help you chase the sheep out!¡± Xu Ling said. ¡± ¡­¡± Yang Guang was a little speechless. He sighed and said, ¡°What a silly girl. If not for this pond, I would have been burned to death. You would have been doomed too. Why bother!¡± ¡°I¡­¡± Xu Ling bit her lips and lowered her head slightly. When he saw her like this, Yang Guang¡¯s heart skipped a beat. He smiled and asked, ¡°Don¡¯t tell me you like me?¡± ¡°No way!¡± Xu Ling quickly blushed. She wriggled her body and realized that she was in his arms, so she hurriedly said, ¡°Put me down quickly. There¡¯s no need to hold me!¡± ¡°Oh.¡± Yang Guang regretted it inside. If he had known earlier, he wouldn¡¯t have said that! After Yang Guang let go of her, the two of them sat in the water and looked at the raging mountain fire not far away. Xu Ling said with lingering fear, ¡°This is bad. Even if the fire is extinguished, we won¡¯t be able to get out easily!¡± ¡°At least until all the embers are extinguished.¡± Yang Guang nodded and then comforted her, ¡°But don¡¯t worry. There¡¯s food and drink here. We¡¯ll be fine even if we¡¯re trapped for a few days!¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Xu Ling was stunned and her eyes widened in confusion. ¡°Where can we find food and drink?¡± ¡°Drink the water here. If you¡¯re really hungry, why don¡¯t you slaughter a sheep and eat it?!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°We helped Mr. Sun save more than ten sheep. It¡¯s not too much to eat one of them, right?¡± ¡°Uh, only you can think of such a thing!¡± Xu Ling was a little speechless. She thought to herself, ¡®Even at this time, he still wasn¡¯t worried at all!¡¯ Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. With me around, nothing will happen to you!¡± Xu Ling¡¯s heart warmed when she heard that. She lowered her head and said, ¡°Thank you for saving me again.¡± She was talking about when her legs went weak and she fell to the ground while unable to move. If Yang Guang hadn¡¯t run over to pick her up, she would have been engulfed by the flames by now! Yang Guang smiled and reached out to wipe the black dust off her face. ¡°What are you thanking me for? Isn¡¯t my responsibility to protect you?!¡± These words came from the bottom of his heart. He didn¡¯t have any intention of teasing her. His actions were a little romantically ambiguous, causing Xu Ling to blush again. She bit her lips and lowered her head. Her appearance was so adorable that Yang Guang suddenly couldn¡¯t help but lean towards her! Chapter 88 - The Atmosphere Was Awkward Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xu Ling was completely unprepared. By the time she snapped back to reality, Yang Guang had already kissed her on the forehead! She raised her head in shock and saw his burning gaze. Xu Ling panicked and quickly lowered her head. ¡°What are you doing!?¡± Her tone was coquettish and didn¡¯t have the slightest hint of anger. There was even a hint of elation! Yang Guang had taken advantage of her, but he didn¡¯t continue. Instead, he reached out and hugged her shoulder. Xu Ling struggled slightly. Seeing that he was hugging her very tightly, she didn¡¯t resist and simply let him hug her. Yang Guang was overcome with delight. Although he didn¡¯t say it out loud, it was very obvious that he had already obtained the heart of the beautiful village chief! The two young people leaned against each other in the water. In front of them was a raging forest fire. However, the nervousness from before had completely disappeared. It was as if this fire just complemented their current happy mood. Time passed minute by minute. Suddenly, a rumbling sound came from the sky. One could tell that it was an airplane! However, the terrain here was narrow. They were already deep in the valley. Behind them was a mountain peak, and in front of them was a burning field filled with thick smoke. Hence, they couldn¡¯t see the airplane at all. However, very soon, when white powder poured down from the sky. Yang Guang and Xu Ling knew that a fire brigade had come to put out the fire! ¡°I told you, it¡¯s a blessing in disguise. We¡¯ll definitely be fine!¡± Yang Guang said excitedly A large amount of white powder fell and stopped the fire. Xu Ling also heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she nodded. ¡°We¡¯re fine now.¡± Yang Guang looked at her and didn¡¯t say anything. Xu Ling blushed from being looked at. She couldn¡¯t help but say coquettishly, ¡°Why are you looking at me?¡± ¡°Can we be considered to have gone through thick and thin together?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°You can say that. I was really scared to death just now. Fortunately, it was JUST a close call,¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Then when we get out, you¡­¡± Yang Guang¡¯s mouth was a little dry, and his heart was racing. So, he quickly picked up a mouthful of water from the pond and took a gulp. Xu Ling was stunned and said in surprise, ¡°We¡¯ve soaked in this water, so don¡¯t you think it¡¯s dirty?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t interrupt me!¡± Yang Guang hugged her shoulders. ¡°When we get out, can you be my girlfriend?¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Xu Ling¡¯s eyes widened! Although she had a premonition that he was going to say something important, she still found it hard to believe when she heard it with her own ears. Seeing Yang Guang looking straight at her, Xu Ling lowered her head and said in a low voice, ¡°Uh¡­¡± ¡°You don¡¯t like me?¡± Seeing her expression, Yang Guang asked. ¡°No, it¡¯s not that¡­¡± Xu Ling shook her head and looked up at him with a blush. ¡°But now isn¡¯t the time. Can you give me some time?¡± ¡°Why?¡± The two of them sat together for a long time. Feeling that her body was trembling nervously, Yang Guang asked in puzzlement. ¡°There are some things that you don¡¯t understand. I¡­ I need some time!¡± Xu Ling¡¯s eyes flickered as she said. When he saw this, Yang Guang thought that she didn¡¯t like him, so she was looking for an excuse to turn him down. Therefore, his face fell. He forced a smile and said, ¡°Okay, I understand.¡± After saying that, he let go of her hand and stopped hugging her. ¡°It¡¯s not what you think!¡± Xu Ling panicked and reached out to grab his arm. In a moment of desperation, she raised her head and kissed Yang Guang on the cheek! Following that, she blushed even more and she quickly lowered her head. This time, Yang Guang was a little confused. A beautiful girl taking the initiative to kiss him already showed her feelings very clearly, but why did she still want to wait? His previously elated mood was instantly replaced with confusion. With both hands supporting Xu Ling¡¯s shoulders, Yang Guang asked, ¡°What exactly is the reason?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t ask. I¡¯ll tell you when the time comes,¡± Xu Ling said and broke free from his grasp. She stood up from the water and headed to the shore. Looking at her drenched body and the clothes on her body sticking to her skin, Yang Guang was in no mood to admire her beautiful figure. Xu Ling even took off her coat and pants to dry the clothes, but he still wasn¡¯t in the mood to look at her figure. The aircraft was very efficient in extinguishing the fire. The fire in the forest was already under control, but the heat wave was still there. Therefore, even though they were more than ten meters apart, steam was still rising from the soaked clothes. Xu Ling sat on a rock and hugged her knees. She stared at the clothes in a daze. Yang Guang looked at her in the water and suddenly felt his heart ache. This girl obviously had something on her mind, but she couldn¡¯t tell him. Perhaps she had her own difficulties? Thinking of this, Yang Guang stood up from the water, then dragged his wet body to Xu Ling and squatted down. While Xu Ling was confused, Yang Guang had already helped her take off her shoes. ¡°Dry this too. Otherwise, you won¡¯t be comfortable when you walk after getting out.¡± ¡°Okay, thank you.¡± Xu Ling¡¯s smile was forced, but she didn¡¯t move and let him help her take off her shoes and socks. After Yang Guang was done drying them, Xu Ling said, ¡°Dry your clothes too. Wearing wet clothes makes it easy to catch a cold.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Yang Guang also took off his coat, leaving only a pair of boxer shorts. While waiting for the clothes to dry, Xu Ling asked nonchalantly, ¡°Sister-in-law is at home. She must be very anxious, right?¡± ¡°She should be, but my sister-in-law definitely won¡¯t believe that something will happen to us. She is definitely waiting for us!¡± Yang Guang said. Xu Ling stared blankly at the distant forest that had been burned to ashes. She didn¡¯t say anything else. The originally serene atmosphere, because of her worries, was ruined and the two of them were at a loss for words for a moment. ¡°I might not be able to go out tonight. I¡¯ll get some weeds over. I¡¯ll sleep here tonight!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Okay.¡± Xu Ling knew very well that although the fire had been extinguished, there were still ashes left on the wood in the forest. The temperature was also very high and no one would be able to withstand it. They could only wait for the ashes to be extinguished before they could go over. There were many one-meter-tall weeds by the pond. Yang Guang plucked some and pounced on two large patches by the shore. There was some distance between the two, so they didn¡¯t touch each other. The sky gradually darkened. The roar of the plane hadn¡¯t been heard for a long time. It was obvious that the fire had ended and it had returned to the airport. Sun Wannian¡¯s remaining sheep were eating grass by the water. They were very relaxed and had completely forgotten that they had almost died in the sea of fire just now. Yang Guang looked dejected and couldn¡¯t help but say, ¡°You guys seem really comfortable. I still don¡¯t know what to eat for dinner tonight!¡± Xu Ling smiled when she heard that and turned to look at him. ¡°You should be fine even if you don¡¯t eat for the whole night.¡± ¡°I was afraid that you would be hungry, but I don¡¯t mind!¡± Yang Guang smiled and felt that the atmosphere was a little better, so he continued, ¡°This fire should have killed a lot of small animals. I¡¯ll go and look for them later!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t. There are still burning coals everywhere in the fire. Don¡¯t endanger yourself. I¡¯ll be fine!¡± Xu Ling shook her head and said softly. ¡°Alright then.¡± Yang Guang nodded. He didn¡¯t dare to look at her, so he turned his head. Xu Ling was wearing shorts and a white tank top. Her outfit looked cute and innocent. Any man would feel titillated just by looking at her. Yang Guang was the same. He was afraid that he would get a nosebleed in front of her again, so he didn¡¯t dare to look at her anymore. The sun set, and the forest gradually darkened as night fell.. Chapter 89 - Enamored Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio In the mountains, the light dimmed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, their surroundings darkened. Then, the starry sky brightened. Yang Guang laid on the grass bed he made and gazed at the bright galaxy sky. He couldn¡¯t help but marvel, ¡°I used to gaze at the stars like this during childhood. Now, I realize that I haven¡¯t gazed at them for a long time!¡± Xu Ling was originally hugging her knees in a daze. When she heard that, she raised her head and realized that the stars in the sky were extremely beautiful. She was instantly stunned! Then, she slowly got up and laid down on the bed. She leaned on her arm and gazed at the starry sky. ¡°I wouldn¡¯t realize it even if you hadn¡¯t said it. It¡¯s really beautiful!¡± The two of them were separated by a meter. Neither of them said anything. They just quietly gazed at the sky while in their own thoughts. After an unknown amount of time, Xu Ling suddenly felt something on the side of her body, so she reached out to touch it. It felt cold in her hand. It was smooth and soft, and it was even swimming around! When she realized that it was a snake, Xu Ling immediately screamed and jumped into Yang Guang¡¯s arms! Yang Guang immediately hugged her tightly. He asked in surprise, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°There¡¯s a snake!¡± Xu Ling trembled as her entire body was pressed against Yang Guang¡¯s body. Yang Guang had never experienced such a feeling before and his entire body went numb. However, when he heard that there was a snake, he quickly stood up and took a look. He could vaguely see something swimming around. Without saying anything, he pounced forward and grabbed the snake. Then, he stood up and swung it around! The snake¡¯s body was thick, and it was more than a meter long. After he swung it, the joints of the snake broke off, and it was immediately unable to move. ¡°Great. We have dinner now!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and stepped on the snake¡¯s head. He found a sharp stone by the water¡¯s edge and cut open the snake¡¯s skin. Unfortunately, he didn¡¯t bring a knife into the mountain, so he could only use a stone to deal with it. In the end, he broke the snake into several pieces. Then, Yang Guang braved the heatwave and came to a place where there was charcoal. He used a wooden stick to pick up a few pieces and added some dried wood. In a short while, he started a fire. Xu Ling watched from the side the entire time. When the fire lit up, she couldn¡¯t help but laugh. ¡°You¡¯re really amazing. It seems like nothing can stump you!¡± ¡°Everyone who grew up in the mountains knows this!¡± Yang Guang smiled. When he looked up and saw her smiling under the fire, he was instantly awestruck! A strong sense of ardor surged in his heart. Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but call out softly, ¡°Xu Ling.¡± ¡°Uh-huh.¡± Xu Ling blushed slightly, but she still responded. Their eyes met, and the two of them were slightly tantalized. Fortunately, the aroma of the snake meat reached the tip of their noses. After looking at each other for a long time, the two of them finally averted their eyes. As if his heart was filled with warmth, Yang Guang quickly turned over the snake meat and roasted it some more. After it was roasted, the two of them sat side by side. As they ate, Yang Guang said with a smile, ¡°This is what it gets for scaring you!¡± ¡°Ever since I met you, I¡¯ve eaten snake meat, wolf meat, and even Ganoderma. I¡¯ve really gained quite a lot of experience!¡± Xu Ling was in a good mood and laughed as she ate. Yang Guang laughed when he heard that. He rolled his eyes and suddenly asked, ¡°Then when did you fall in love with me?¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Xu Ling was stunned by the question. She suddenly didn¡¯t know what to say! Seeing that she was nervous, Yang Guang smiled. ¡°You¡¯re not allowed to backtrack. You¡¯ve already admitted it just now!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Xu Ling pursed her lips and blushed again. Yang Guang didn¡¯t say anything. He just gazed at her with a smile and felt very amused. However, in this romantic atmosphere, there was a sudden thump from the foot of the mountain in the distance! Then, a furious scolding sounded in the quiet night, ¡°D*mn it, I told you to keep your voice down!¡± Someone was there! Yang Guang immediately stood up when he heard the voice. Under the starlight and moonlight, he saw two people walking over from the foot of the mountain. These two people must have slid down from the mountain with ropes, since there was no other place to enter the valley from. Under the illumination of the fire, the two people slowly walked up to the front. One of them was tall and one of them was short. They were over 1.9 meters tall and the shorter one was only about 1.6 meters. The two men had fierce looks on their faces. Just from their gaze, it was obvious that they weren¡¯t good people! Especially since they didn¡¯t even look at Yang Guang. Their gazes were entirely on Xu Ling¡¯s chest and thighs, and they were extremely rude! Seeing that they didn¡¯t speak, Yang Guang immediately asked, ¡°Who are you?¡± ¡°It has nothing to do with you. I originally wanted to sneak over, but I didn¡¯t expect this buddy of mine to be so carelessly noisy and let you discover us!¡± The tall man smiled sleazily, then narrowed his eyes. ¡°But it doesn¡¯t matter. You guys are doomed tonight. You guys can blame yourselves for barging in!¡± As soon as he said that, a shiny knife appeared in his hand! ¡°F * ck, you want to kill us?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s heart skipped a beat. He immediately clenched his fists and moved in front of Xu Ling to shield her. ¡°You want to save a damsel in distress?¡± The tall man sneered and raised the knife in his hand. ¡°Dream on. I¡¯ll let you die slowly later. Watch how we screw around with this beautiful woman!¡± ¡°F * ck you, you¡¯re courting death!¡± These words infuriated Yang Guang. Although he didn¡¯t have a weapon in his hand, he still raised his fist and charged forward! The two men instantly dodged, one on the left and one on the right, trapping Yang Guang in the middle! Yang Guang¡¯s heart sank. These two weren¡¯t ordinary people, but martial artists! While he was feeling shocked, he felt a cold breeze in his face, and then the knife arrived in front of his face! ¡°Be careful!¡± Xu Ling cried out in surprise, and instantly became anxious. Yang Guang felt that danger was approaching, so he directly lowered his head and dodged the knife. Then, he sent a side kick towards the tall man! Following that, the three of them moved swiftly and engaged in battle! Xu Ling¡¯s heart was beating wildly, but she couldn¡¯t do anything to help. She, afraid that he would be injured, could only stare at Yang Guang with her eyes wide open. Yang Guang was a little flustered at first. It was mainly because the other party had a knife in his hand, but he had nothing. The two of them clearly had murderous intentions. The knife in their hands had always been aimed at his vital parts. If he was stabbed, even if he didn¡¯t die, he would be seriously injured! After a few exchanges, the anger in Yang Guang¡¯s heart was completely ignited. For no reason, they wanted to kill him the moment they met, and they even wanted to r*pe Xu Ling. These two deserved to die! Angered, he no longer held back and began to use the energy of the Method of Divine Farmer! The energy circulated around his four limbs while increasing his speed and strength by quite a bit. He began to feel more confident! The tall man originally thought that it would be easy to deal with this young man. However, he realized that the other party¡¯s speed was getting faster and faster. He couldn¡¯t help but say in shock, ¡°This kid has some combat skills!¡± As soon as he finished speaking, his vision darkened. Yang Guang¡¯s knee hit him right in the chest! ¡°Go to h*ll!¡± With an angry roar, Yang Guang punched that person¡¯s face! Chapter 90 - Lucky Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Bang!¡± After a muffled sound, the tall man fell backward. Then, due to the tremendous force, his body left the ground and flew backward! After flying for more than ten meters, he finally landed on the ground. Then, there was no more movement from him! ¡°Bro!¡± When the short man saw this, he shouted and wanted to see how he was doing. However, he was stopped by Yang Guang! ¡°Don¡¯t worry about him for now, and think about what you should do!¡± Yang Guang sneered and swung his fist at him! ¡°I¡¯ll fight it out with you!¡± A fierce light flashed in the short man¡¯s eyes. He waved his knife at Yang Guang, but then he went straight for Xu Ling! ¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡± When Yang Guang saw this scene, he was instantly furious. He rushed forward quickly and punched the short man¡¯s waist! ¡°Kacha!¡± With a crisp sound, the short man stopped in his tracks. Then, he collapsed onto the ground with a thud. He twitched a few times before he stopped moving. Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but feel speechless when he stepped forward to take a look. This punch was too vicious. Not only did it break the short man¡¯s lumbar vertebrae, but it also shattered his internal organs. This guy was dead. Although Yang Guang was a little nervous about killing someone all of a sudden, he didn¡¯t lose his composure. When he saw Xu Ling¡¯s pale face, he quickly stepped forward and comforted her, ¡°Don¡¯t be afraid. It¡¯s okay!¡± Xu Ling was still in a state of panic. When she heard this, she immediately threw herself into Yang Guang¡¯s arms. Feeling her body tremble, Yang Guang felt his heart ache. He quickly hugged her and comforted her. When Xu Ling regained her senses and was no longer so afraid, Yang Guang opened his mouth and said, ¡°Let¡¯s go take a look at that tall man. I wonder if he¡¯s dead!¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Xu Ling nodded and took two steps before she came back to her senses. She turned around and looked at the short guy. ¡°You beat him to death?¡± ¡°Yeah, this guy deserves to die. He wanted to attack you just now, but I didn¡¯t expect him to be beaten up so easily!¡± Yang Guang said. When Xu Ling heard that, she was stunned. ¡°You killed someone!¡± ¡°I was defending myself. And these two guys obviously aren¡¯t good people!¡± Yang Guang smiled and held her hand while saying, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, it¡¯s fine!¡± While they were talking, the two of them arrived in front of the tall man. Yang Guang reached out his hand to check his breath and found that the man was only unconscious, so he was relieved. He was hit hard in the face and was sent flying so far away, so it would be strange if he hadn¡¯t blacked out. As long as he didn¡¯t die, that was a good thing! At least he could find out from him what these two guys were doing and why they appeared in the deep mountains. While Xu Ling watched from the side, Yang Guang stretched out his hand and tapped the tall man¡¯s chest twice. ¡°Mmm¡­¡± With a groan coming from his throat, the tall man slowly opened his eyes. Then, he saw Yang Guang looking down at him with a nonchalant smile, and his eyes immediately widened! ¡°Don¡¯t be afraid. I won¡¯t kill you first. Tell me what you came here to do!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and waved the knife in his hand. The tall man then remembered what had just happened, and used his elbow to support his body. ¡°I didn¡¯t know you were so powerful. Let, let me go!¡± ¡°It¡¯s not that I can¡¯t let you go, but you have to tell me what exactly happened. Why did you and that short man come down from the mountain?!¡± Yang Guang asked coldly. ¡°I. . .¡± The tall man¡¯s eyes darted around. His mind was racing as he thought about how to answer. When the tall man was deep in thought, Yang Guang cut his shoulder with the blade. ¡°Still not being honest? Do you want to be dead, like that short man?¡± ¡°You, you killed him?¡± The tall man raised his head with a stunned expression. Yang Guang sneered. ¡°What? You guys can kill me, but I can¡¯t kill you guys?¡± ¡± ¡­¡± The tall man was stunned and looked at Yang Guang blankly. ¡°Who exactly are you?¡± How could an ordinary person be so calm after killing someone? How was that possible? At that moment, the tall man even felt that the young man in front of him was in the same line of work as him. He had encountered someone who also worked in the underworld! ¡°Stop talking nonsense and answer my question!¡± Yang Guang was a little impatient. He used the knife to slap the tall man¡¯s face and then said sternly, ¡°If you don¡¯t say it, I¡¯ll make you suffer the same fate as the short man!¡± ¡°I¡¯ll say it! I¡¯ll say it!¡± The tall man was a little dumbfounded. The shiny blade was right in front of him. He didn¡¯t dare to refuse to say it, so he could only take a deep breath and bite the bullet. ¡°The two of us came to the mountain to rob from tombs.¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Yang Guang was stunned and asked in shock, ¡°There¡¯s an ancient tomb in this mountain?¡± ¡°Yes, yes, it¡¯s right behind us!¡± The tall man turned his head and pointed at the tall mountain behind him. Looking up, Yang Guang could only see the dark mountain peak in the night sky. He didn¡¯t know where the ancient tomb was. Yang Guang lowered his head and asked, ¡°Then, did you set this fire?¡± ¡°Yes, it was us.¡± The tall man was really afraid. He swallowed hard and still told the truth! Yang Guang was very angry when he heard that. He patted his face with the side of his knife. ¡°B*stard, I finally understand. You set the fire because you didn¡¯t want anyone to see you, right? You almost killed me!!¡± ¡°I¡­¡± The tall man didn¡¯t know what to say and swallowed hard. Yang Guang didn¡¯t intend to kill him. After asking about the situation, he stood up with the knife in his hand and said, ¡°You should have died. However, since your companion is already dead, and we still need someone to give a statement to the police, I¡¯ll let you live for the time being!¡± ¡°Thank you! Thank you!¡± When the tall man heard that, he felt it was as if he had been pardoned! ¡°But I¡¯m warning you. You also know that you¡¯re not my opponent, so don¡¯t try to play any tricks. When the sun rises, think of a way to come out of the mountain with us!¡± Yang Guang said. The tall man looked dejected. He got up and lowered his head like a stray dog. He seemed to have completely admitted defeat. ¡°Go sit by the bonfire.¡± Xu Ling was a woman after all. Yang Guang knew that she would be nervous, so he turned his head and said. But before he could finish, he saw Xu Ling¡¯s big eyes instantly widen. At the same time, she exclaimed, ¡°Be careful!¡± ¡°Pfft!¡± Yang Guang felt a chill under his armpit. Following that, a bright blade pierced through his clothes from the inside to reveal a blade! He turned his head around in shock. The tall man revealed a sinister smile. ¡°Kid, you¡¯re still a little too naive!¡± ¡°Yang Guang!¡± Xu Ling saw the tip of the blade and thought that Yang Guang had been stabbed through the back. She was so frightened that her legs went soft! However, she didn¡¯t expect that not only did Yang Guang not show any signs of pain, but he even turned around with a strange expression! Under the tall man¡¯s shocked gaze, he raised the knife in his hand. ¡°I told you not to play any tricks. Did you not believe me?¡± Just as he said that, the knife pierced through the tall man¡¯s chest! With a face full of disbelief, the tall man felt his vision go black and his body went soft. With a plop, he fell to the ground and died! Yang Guang looked down at his clothes and shook his head with a forced smile.. ¡°I¡¯m quite lucky!¡± Chapter 91 - Rescue Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The tall man¡¯s blade had pierced through Yang Guang¡¯s skin! It hadn¡¯t pierced his body, but only his clothes. Yang Guang felt a lingering sense of fear. If he had been stabbed, not only would he have died, but Xu Ling would have been r*ped as well! Thinking of this, he couldn¡¯t help but step forward and kick him a couple of times, even though the tall man was already dead. At this moment, Xu Ling, who had come to her senses, quickly ran up to Yang Guang and hugged him. ¡°You¡¯re fine? You scared me to death!¡± ¡°Who says I wasn¡¯t? I was also caught off guard just now!¡± Yang Guang forced a laugh and took the opportunity to hug her waist! The two of them hugged each other for a while before Xu Ling raised her face. ¡°You killed two people, so what should we do?¡± ¡°Do you think it¡¯s better to call the police or destroy the evidence?¡± Yang Guang asked. Xu Ling was stunned. She bit her lips and said, ¡°These two guys deserve to die. But even if I testify for you, that¡¯s still two human lives. No matter how much they deserved to die, you¡¯re still guilty of manslaughter!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. So I might be arrested and locked up for a few years, and then I won¡¯t be able to see you again,¡± Yang Guang said. Hearing this, Xu Ling trembled. She gritted her teeth and said, ¡°They¡¯re evil, so we might as well throw them into the fire and burn him!¡± Yang Guang laughed when he heard that. Then, he nodded. ¡°Okay, let¡¯s do it!¡± He turned around and went to the corpse. Yang Guang first checked if the tall man had anything on him, but he only found a satchel, so he threw it aside and dragged the corpse into the forest. Then, he dragged the short man over as well. He put down the remaining embers and threw some firewood over. Not long after, a flame sprang up, and the firewood began to burn with crackling sounds. Yang Guang and Xu Ling watched for a while. Both of their hearts were a little heavy, but it had already been done. What was the point of regretting it now? So Yang Guang took Xu Ling¡¯s hand and went back to the bonfire where the meat had been roasted. He took the tall man¡¯s satchel and looked at it. There were quite a lot of things inside. They were all bits and pieces. There was a small map book, a bunch of keys, some anti-inflammatory and anti-fever medicine, and a small red bronze medal. The useless things were thrown into the bonfire. Yang Guang took the bronze medal and looked at it. There were two characters engraved on it, but he didn¡¯t know what they were. However, he felt that this thing might come in handy, so he didn¡¯t burn it. Instead, he put it into his pocket. When he was almost done burning the stuff, he turned around to look at the back of the mountain. Yang Guang said to Xu Ling, ¡°Since there¡¯s an ancient tomb there, let¡¯s go take a look later?¡± ¡°Sure, but if you find any cultural relics or something like that, you can¡¯t hide it. You have to hand it over to the authorities!¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°No problem. If it¡¯s an antique, I¡¯ll definitely hand it over. But if it¡¯s gold or silver, I won¡¯t!¡± Yang Guang said. Xu Ling looked at him and sighed. ¡°You¡¯re really greedy. But okay, since gold or silver doesn¡¯t have any archaeological value anyway!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Yang Guang nodded, then held her hand and said, ¡°When the sky brightens, let¡¯s think of a way to go home first!¡± ¡°Yeah, I hope Wu Xiaolian hasn¡¯t been too worried,¡± Xu Ling said. As the two were talking, a faint shout suddenly came from afar, so Yang Guang and Xu Ling both turned their heads to look at the direction outside the valley and listened attentively. Soon, a few rays flashed in the sky. It was obviously the light of a flashlight. Then, the shouts became clearer! Yang Guang stood up. ¡°It¡¯s the people from the village!¡± ¡°Maybe everyone was worried about us, so they came to the mountain to look for us!¡± Xu Ling heard that they were shouting her and Yang Guang¡¯s names. She quickly stood up and replied loudly, ¡°Hey, we¡¯re here!¡± Her clear voice echoed in the valley. The villagers heard it very quickly! Yang Guang glanced at Xu Ling at this time and said with a smile, ¡°If you don¡¯t want to be seen naked, you¡¯d better put on your clothes first!¡± ¡°Ah!¡± Xu Ling looked down and realized that she was still dressed in shorts and a tank top. She quickly ran to get her dry clothes. After she put them on, she stuck out her tongue at Yang Guang. ¡°Thank goodness you reminded me in time!¡± ¡°Of course. Only I can see you like this. I can¡¯t stand it when others see you like this!¡± Yang Guang laughed. Xu Ling was stunned by his words and then rolled her eyes at him. Even so, her heart was filled with warmth and happiness. Yang Guang knew that the villagers were about to arrive. On impulse, he walked over to hug Xu Ling, then he lowered his head and kissed her! ¡°Ah, you villain, you¡¯re taking advantage of me again!¡± After Xu Ling was kissed, she was immediately shocked and embarrassed. She was so angry that she stomped her feet. ¡°There won¡¯t be a chance when I go back, so I have to seize the chance!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and quickly ran to put on his clothes. The two of them responded to the shouts outside while holding hands and walking out. The unburned trees were still emitting heat. In some places, the temperature was so high that it was unbearable. Therefore, Yang Guang simply picked up Xu Ling and dashed out! After he ran dozens of meters later, a flashlight flashed in front of them, and then it shone in their direction. The people had already heard Xu Ling and Yang Guang¡¯s responses. Now that they saw the two of them coming out, they immediately let out a sigh of relief! Among the crowd, the first one to rush up was Wu Xiaolian. When she saw that the two of them were fine, she immediately let out a sigh of relief. Then, she said with a sob, ¡°I was scared to death. Fortunately, you two are fine!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t cry. Why are you crying when you see that we¡¯re fine?!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and turned to look at Qingshan Village¡¯s women behind him. He said loudly, ¡°Thank you, everyone. You still came out to look for us even in the middle of the night!¡± ¡°If you want to thank someone, then thank Xiaolian. It was Xiaolian who went from house to house looking for everyone to help!¡± Mrs. Niu said. Yang Guang was even more touched when he heard that. He smiled and said, ¡°Then I have to thank all of you for being willing to accompany Xiaolian into the mountains!¡± ¡°Yang Guang, you¡¯re really impressive to be fine even after you were trapped in the mountain!¡± Mrs. Niu said. ¡°I¡¯m lucky!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°Thank you all again. I¡¯ll set up a banquet at home another day and treat everyone to a meal!¡± ¡°It¡¯s nice that you have the intention. You¡¯re a member of our village. We can¡¯t just stand by and watch while you¡¯re in trouble. We were just joking just now. Since you and Xu Ling are fine, we can rest assured!¡± Mrs. Niu chatted with everyone for a while, and then everyone walked out of the mountain. With more people, there was nothing to be afraid of in the dark forest. Yang Guang omitted the part with the tall and short guys and told everyone about how he had escaped the fire in the mountain. After hearing that, everyone started buzzing with discussion. They all said that he and Xu Ling were extremely lucky. Fortunately, there was a pond, or else it would have been difficult for them to survive. When the group returned to the village, the sky had already brightened. A new day was about to begin.. Chapter 92 - Discovered Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang thought that he wasn¡¯t sleepy, but he didn¡¯t expect to fall asleep as soon as he went back to his room. He slept for the entire morning. When he woke up, Wu Xiaolian had already prepared lunch and was waiting for him and Xu Ling. When he went out and saw the prepared food, Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°You didn¡¯t sleep for the whole night either. Shouldn¡¯t you sleep some more?¡± ¡°I slept for a while. Then, Yaya woke up and I woke up too.¡± Wu Xiaolian smiled very beautifully. It was obvious that she was in a very good mood. Seeing her like this, Yang Guang asked curiously, ¡°Is there something you¡¯re happy about?¡± ¡°Yes!¡± Wu Xiaolian smiled mysteriously and came close to him. She lowered her voice and said, ¡°You and Lingling stayed in the mountain for so long, and you even carried her out later. Have you two already tied the knot?¡± ¡± ¡­¡± Yang Guang was speechless. He forced a smile and said, ¡°When did you become so nosy? Can you stop letting your imagination run wild?!¡± ¡°What do you mean by letting my imagination run wild? Tell me quickly, have the two of you made any progress?!¡± Wu Xiaolian asked. Just as she said that, Xu Ling¡¯s voice came from behind, ¡°There¡¯s no progress. You¡¯re really nosy!¡± ¡°Huh!¡± When Wu Xiaolian heard her voice, she immediately acted like a child who had been caught doing something mischievous red-handed. She almost jumped up! However, when she turned around to look at Xu Ling and found that she was smiling without any signs of anger, Wu Xiaolian blushed and said, ¡°I was just curious and asked about it casually. Hehe!¡± Xu Ling smiled and came close to her to say, ¡°I see Yang Guang as a brother. There won¡¯t be anything else between us. You¡¯d better think about Xiaowan or Yingxue. I think both of them like Yang Guang!¡± ¡°Huh¡­¡± Hearing this, Yang Guang and Wu Xiaolian were stunned! Xu Ling put away her smile and said seriously, ¡°I¡¯m not joking. To be honest, I do have a good impression of Yang Guang. But because of some things, it¡¯s impossible for us to be together!¡± ¡°What is it? Can you tell me about it?¡± Wu Xiaolian saw her dejected expression, so she held her hand and asked. ¡°I won¡¯t say anything more. It¡¯s because family matters. Don¡¯t ask anymore!¡± Xu Ling shook her head and sighed. After that, no matter how much Wu Xiaolian asked, she refused to say anything more. She had no choice but to not ask anymore. After lunch, Xu Ling said to Yang Guang, ¡°I¡¯ll go to the greenhouse to check around. I still have to go back to the mountain to take a look as well.¡± ¡°Got it. I¡¯ll go into the mountain later!¡± Yang Guang said. Wu Xiaolian didn¡¯t understand what the two of them meant, but she still said, ¡°You don¡¯t have to go. The fire department has already entered the mountain this morning and is putting out the unfinished charcoal fire!¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Xu Ling and Yang Guang were both stunned! It was because the two of them remembered the two corpses. The fire last night wasn¡¯t finished yet. They didn¡¯t know if the two corpses were completely burned to ashes! ¡°We can¡¯t let the Fire Department put out the fire. I¡¯d better go and take a look!¡± Yang Guang said and rushed out of the house in a hurry. Wu Xiaolian couldn¡¯t stop him! Xu Ling didn¡¯t know how to explain. She could only chuckle and say, ¡°This guy is really a Samaritan!¡± After rushing out of the house, Yang Guang went straight into the mountains and returned to the valley last night as fast as he could. Sure enough, there were already people cleaning up the place. Firemen in orange uniforms were using the dry powder extinguisher in their hands to extinguish the smoking area. The person who was accompanying him was Qingshan Village¡¯s chief, Sun Guoying. Upon seeing him, Yang Guang rolled his eyes and couldn¡¯t be bothered to go forward. However, when Sun Guoying saw him, he immediately shouted, ¡°Yang Guang, come over here!¡± ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Yang Guang had no choice but to walk over. ¡°These two are the higher-ups of the fire department and the police station¡¯s station chief, Mr. Hu!¡± Sun Guoying said and then asked, ¡°Yang Guang, did you see anyone else in the mountain last night?¡± ¡°Anyone else? No, it was just me and Xu Ling. What¡¯s wrong?¡± Yang Guang asked innocently. Although his face was expressionless, his heart sank. It was obvious that the firemen must have found the bodies in the forest that weren¡¯t burned last night! As expected, the police station¡¯s chief Hu Jian said at this time, ¡°Two bodies were found in the forest. They have been burned beyond recognition. We don¡¯t know who they are at all. I asked the village chief. You and Xu Ling were the only ones in Qingshan Village last night, right?¡± ¡°Yes. We went into the mountain to drive the sheep out, but we were trapped by the fire. Fortunately, the plane came in time. Otherwise, Ms. Xu and I would have been burned to death!¡± Yang Guang said. Hu Jian nodded. ¡°It was indeed very dangerous. Fortunately, nothing serious happened. But the two bodies are fishy. Who are they?¡± Yang Guang shook his head. ¡°I didn¡¯t see them, so I don¡¯t know!¡± ¡°Alright, let¡¯s do a DNA comparison later. Maybe we can find some clues!¡± Hu Jian didn¡¯t ask further. He turned his head and looked at the fire that was still smoking in some places. At this time, Yang Guang raised his head and looked at the mountain peak in the distance. That place was where the two guys, one tall and one short, came down from. The rope they left behind should still be there! Thinking of this, Yang Guang wasn¡¯t in a hurry to go back. He thought to himself, ¡°When the firemen find the rope, I wonder if they will follow the clues and climb up the mountain to take a look?¡± He had an idea and asked Hu Jian, ¡°Mr. Hu, is there anything I can help you with? I¡¯m here to help put out the fire!¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need. We have already controlled the fire. The remaining charcoal fires have been put out. We are going to evacuate soon!¡± The leader of the fire brigade said. ¡°Oh, okay then.¡± Yang Guang looked disappointed, but he wasn¡¯t in a hurry to leave. He stayed at the scene. In less than an hour, the firemen on the mountain withdrew, packed their equipment, and left in a line. From the beginning to the end, no one talked about the rope. Perhaps because the fire didn¡¯t reach the foot of the mountain, no one went over, so no one found out. Yang Guang thought to himself, ¡°It¡¯s my turn to go and explore the ancient tomb first. After I finish my investigation, I¡¯ll hand it over to the cultural relics department to study!¡± Then, he followed the team out of the mountain. When Yang Guang returned home, Xu Ling also came back from the construction site. The two of them sat under the shade of the trees and whispered to each other. Yang Guang told her everything. After listening, Xu Ling nodded. ¡°That¡¯s good too. There¡¯s no evidence to prove that you killed those two people. You don¡¯t have to worry about it in the future!¡± ¡°Uh-huh, I plan to enter the mountain early tomorrow morning. Are you going with me?¡± Yang Guang asked. Xu Ling hesitated for a moment before nodding. ¡°Sure, but I¡¯m afraid that I won¡¯t be able to climb up the mountain. The mountain is very steep!¡± ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. I¡¯m here. If you really can¡¯t, I¡¯ll go up first, then I¡¯ll pull you up!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°That¡¯s fine. Let¡¯s go and take a look tomorrow. I¡¯m also curious about what is inside the ancient tomb!¡± Xu Ling said with a smile. The two of them were talking, so they didn¡¯t notice that Wu Xiaolian, who was coaxing Yaya to take a nap in the room, saw this scene.. Her eyes were full of mirth! Chapter 93 - Good Place Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio During dinner, Yang Guang said to Wu Xiaolian, ¡°Xu Ling and I will make a trip into the mountain tomorrow!¡± ¡°Go ahead. I won¡¯t meddle in the affairs of young people like you guys!¡± Wu Xiaolian said with a smile. Yang Guang and Xu Ling were a little puzzled and looked at her with puzzlement. However, Wu Xiaolian changed the topic. ¡°Oh right, if you are going into the mountain, I will prepare some food and water for you later. This way, you will be fine even if you play in the mountain all day!¡± ¡± ¡­¡± Xu Ling immediately understood. Wu Xiaolian thought that she was going on a date with Yang Guang! She wanted to explain, but she didn¡¯t know what to say when the words were on the tip of her tongue. Therefore, she could only sigh and say nothing. In Wu Xiaolian¡¯s eyes, this was as if she had tacitly acknowledged the relationship between the two of them. She was immediately secretly delighted. This girl was really shy. Why was she still looking for excuses? It seemed that Yang Guang¡¯s marriage was finally going to happen! Therefore, she immediately got up and happily prepared some dry food. The night passed. The next morning, before the sun came out, Yang Guang carried a basket on his back and brought all kinds of tools with him before leaving home with Xu Ling. The air in the valley in the early morning was very fresh. The moist leaves were stained with dew, and the scent of fresh plants was everywhere. The two walked side by side and returned to the place where the fire was. Looking at the extensive black fire rummage, Xu Ling said with some heartache, ¡°It¡¯s such a pity for so many trees to be burned!¡± ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. There¡¯s no lack of flowers and trees on this mountain. Wait until next spring, and you¡¯ll see that these places are full of branches again!¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. As the two of them talked, they crossed the fire rummage and quickly reached the pond where they had hidden yesterday. The traces of last night¡¯s incident were still there. When she recalled what had happened back then, Xu Ling was overcome with lingering fear. Then, she blushed. Yang Guang was also reminiscing about what had happened last night. When he saw her blush, he immediately understood. ¡°You also felt very happy last night, right?¡± ¡°No, I was almost scared to death. What¡¯s there to be happy about?¡± Xu Ling rolled her eyes at him and quickly walked towards the foot of the mountain. Yang Guang knew that she was just being shy, so he chuckled and followed her. He didn¡¯t say anything else. When he came closer, he indeed saw two ropes hanging down from the weeds. These were dark green nylon ropes. The mountain peak was covered with weeds, and if one didn¡¯t look carefully from afar, one wouldn¡¯t be able to see it! He raised his head to take a look. This mountain peak wasn¡¯t vertical, but had a slope. It wasn¡¯t difficult to climb up by pulling the rope. Therefore, Yang Guang said to Xu Ling, ¡°How about I try it first? If it¡¯s easy to climb up, you can go up. I¡¯ll help you pull the rope from above!¡± ¡°Okay, you go up first!¡± Xu Ling nodded and said. Yang Guang grabbed the rope and tightened it. Then, he stepped on the rock and climbed up. He had just climbed up a few meters when Xu Ling grabbed the rope and began to climb. When Yang Guang climbed to a height of more than ten meters, he turned around to take a look. Only then did he realize that she was following behind him! ¡°Gee, you¡¯re quite impressive. You actually don¡¯t need me to pull you?¡± Yang Guang was a little surprised and asked with a smile. ¡°If it was vertical, I definitely wouldn¡¯t be able to climb, but I can get used to a slight slope like this!¡± Xu Ling pulled the rope as she slowly climbed up. Just like that, the two of them, one in front and one behind, quickly reached the top of the 30-meter-tall mountain. When they reached the flat ground above, Yang Guang stretched out his hand and pulled Xu Ling up. The two of them sat on the grass and rested for a while. Then, Xu Ling pointed to the front and said, ¡°Look, there seems to be something there!¡± ¡°The two guys from last night were here. They went down to look for us because they saw the bonfire below!¡± Yang Guang said and stood up to take a few steps forward. In the end, he found the things that the two of them left behind last night. The things in the satchel were all personal items. These were the real tools and other things that they had brought. There was a military shovel, hammer, chisel, and some balls wrapped in newspapers. There was also a fuse on them! Seeing this, Yang Guang said with sudden realization, ¡°No wonder the trees had been burned. So those two guys actually brought this. This is an incendiary bomb!¡± Although he had never seen it before, looking at the fuse and smelling the thick smell of gasoline, he still understood! Xu Ling was also very speechless when she saw it. She turned around and looked at the large fire field that surrounded the mountain at the foot of the mountain. She said angrily, ¡°For burning down so many mountains and trees, the crimes of these two people are already enough for them to be sentenced to decades of imprisonment!¡± ¡°Since they are already dead, let¡¯s not fuss about it!¡± Yang Guang, his eyes shining, played with the shovel on the ground. These tools were all good things. Even if they weren¡¯t tomb raiders, they were still very useful. After putting down the things, Yang Guang looked at the surrounding terrain and found that the place they were at was only a platform. In front of them was a mountain peak. This mountain peak was slightly steeper. It was about 90 degrees and faced the east. The flat ground under his feet was like a chair, and the mountain peak was the back of the chair. So after taking a few glances, Yang Guang turned to look at Xu Ling. ¡°There might be a huge tomb here!¡± ¡°Really? What do you mean?¡± Xu Ling asked. Yang Guang smiled. ¡°I don¡¯t know much about Feng Shui, but just based on my instinct, I feel that this place is a treasure land. Look, the back of the mountain is facing the place where the sun rises. Isn¡¯t this location good?¡± ¡°Yes, the scenery is really good. Standing here, we can not only see the surrounding mountains, but we can also see the distant mountains and towns. The view is really excellent!¡± Xu Ling nodded and said. ¡°So if there¡¯s a grave, it might be the grave of a big shot. Let¡¯s go and take a look!¡± Yang Guang said and dragged her away! After walking for a short while, the two of them came to the front of the stone wall. Sure enough, there were traces of digging on it. A few small holes had been dug out, and something had already been stuffed into them. Yang Guang could tell at a glance that this was installed with electrical detonators and explosives! He had never worked in a mine before, but he had heard his brother talk about the content of their work in the mine before. Yang Guang clicked his tongue. ¡°Good heavens, those two fellows last night were quite bold. They actually dared to set off a bomb in the mountain!¡± Xu Ling was also dumbfounded and she asked in shock, ¡°With such an explosion, aren¡¯t they afraid of being discovered?¡± ¡°According to what I know, there¡¯s a type of low-explosive that doesn¡¯t make too much noise when it¡¯s detonated. They probably used this type of explosive!¡± Yang Guang said as he looked down at the holes in the wall. He found that there were still a few holes that hadn¡¯t been completed, but most of the holes had already been installed with explosives. Therefore, after thinking about it, he couldn¡¯t be bothered to dig any more holes. He thought to himself that if he couldn¡¯t make a big hole, a small hole would be enough. He might as well give it a try! Following the wires, he quickly found the detonator wrapped in plastic. The thing was hidden in the grass on the side of the mountain wall. ¡°Come behind me.. Be careful not to let the gravel crush you!¡± Yang Guang said and lowered his head to fiddle with the detonator! Chapter 94 - Palace Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The two of them hid at the side of the cliff with their backs facing the explosion point. Yang Guang looked at Xu Ling, and Xu Ling looked at him. Their eyes met, and Xu Ling nodded. ¡°Detonate it. I¡¯m not afraid!¡± Seeing her pursing her lips and pretending to be calm, Yang Guang smiled. Then, he handed the detonator over. ¡°Since you¡¯re not afraid, you can press it!¡± ¡°I won¡¯t!¡± Xu Ling was shocked and quickly shook her head. Then, she realized that Yang Guang was deliberately teasing her, so she glared at him. The more she acted like this, the more amused Yang Guang felt. So, he chuckled and pressed the button. ¡°Boom!¡± His back trembled, and his feet also shook. Then, the two heard a muffled sound! The sound wasn¡¯t loud, and it was almost impossible to hear it from a few hundred meters away. However, what followed was a thick cloud of smoke and dust. As the wind blew over, it directly covered the two of them. Amidst a series of coughs, Yang Guang pulled Xu Ling out of the range of the smoke and dust. In the end, he discovered that both of their hair had turned silver-gray! He looked at Xu Ling and laughed loudly. When Xu Ling raised her head to look at him, she couldn¡¯t help but laugh out loud! Their heads were covered in gray dust. The two of them seemed to have aged 40 years in an instant! ¡°You¡¯ve become an old man!¡± Xu Ling laughed out loud. Yang Guang forced a smile and looked at her. ¡°You¡¯re not much better. You¡¯ve become an old lady. We¡¯re suitable as a couple!¡± ¡°Gee, stop fooling around!¡± Xu Ling rolled her eyes at him and turned to look at the explosion point. Then, she said, ¡°Look, there¡¯s a hole!¡± ¡°It¡¯s strange that there¡¯s still no hole after the explosion!¡± Yang Guang said and walked over. He immediately felt a gust of wind! This wind didn¡¯t come from the dark hole but from the outside! After being stunned for a moment, Yang Guang understood. He turned to Xu Ling and said, ¡°This is bad. Once this air enters, will all the cultural relics inside be destroyed?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know either. I hope that won¡¯t happen,¡± Xu Ling said blankly. The entrance of the cave had been blasted open quite a bit. An adult could enter easily while standing upright. Therefore, Yang Guang picked up the engineering shovel and stepped onto the flashlight. He said to Xu Ling, ¡°Let¡¯s go explore!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Xu Ling¡¯s eyes were filled with both excitement and nervousness. She nodded and followed him into the cave! From the outside, it looked like a complete mountain wall, but inside, it was a completely different world. She really didn¡¯t know who had found such a place, but the design was simply amazing! If it wasn¡¯t for the presence of tomb robbers, Yang Guang wouldn¡¯t have thought that there was such a large space behind the thin layer of rock! He raised his flashlight and shone it. The entrance of the cave was like a tunnel on a highway. It was tall and wide, and the area inside was even larger. Even with the flashlight, they couldn¡¯t see it clearly! Before Yang Guang could turn around, Xu Ling held his hand on her own accord. Yang Guang smiled as he held her little hand and walked forward. The two of them were filled with curiosity. They didn¡¯t know who¡¯s tomb was inside, how big it was, and whether there were treasures inside. After they walked for more than twenty meters, a three-meter-tall stone door appeared in front of the two of them. This door was very wide. It wouldn¡¯t be a problem for four to five people to enter side by side. And on the stone door, there were two large characters engraved. Seeing the two elegantly written word, Yang Guang and Xu Ling were both stunned. It was because it said ¡°Welcome¡±! ¡°What the h*ll? What¡¯s going on? They¡¯re actually welcoming us in?¡± Yang Guang was dumbfounded. He turned to look at Xu Ling with a speechless expression. Xu Ling was also dumbfounded. She widened her eyes and said, ¡°Could this be a trap? If we go in, we¡¯ll be shot to death by arrows!¡± ¡°Uh, that can¡¯t be, right?¡± Yang Guang thought about it for a moment. ¡°Step back. I¡¯ll open the door!¡± ¡°Why don¡¯t you step back? I don¡¯t want anything to happen to you!¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°We¡¯re already here. How can we not see what¡¯s inside? My curiosity won¡¯t allow it!¡± Yang Guang said and let go of her hand. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ll be fine!¡± ¡°Then be careful.¡± Xu Ling took two steps back and didn¡¯t go too far. She thought that if anything happened, she would run over and pull Yang Guang back! Standing beside the stone door, Yang Guang took a deep breath and then pushed hard! ¡°Rumble!¡± The stone door let out a muffled sound and slowly separated to the two sides. At the same time, Yang Guang took two steps back and stood together with Xu Ling against the wall of the cave. In the end, other than a gust of wind, nothing happened! Yang Guang wasn¡¯t at ease. He picked up a stone on the ground and threw it into the cave. The ground was made of flat stone slabs. After Yang Guang threw it into the cave, the stone could be heard rolling for some distance before the cave returned to silence. ¡°See, I told you it was fine!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and walked to the cave entrance. He shone his flashlight into the cave. Then, his body trembled, as if he had seen something shocking. Xu Ling quickly followed after him. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± After saying that, she looked into the cave and her mouth immediately dropped agape! Inside the stone door, the first thing the two of them saw was a palace! No, that was a group of palaces! The space inside was very large. With the illumination of Yang Guang¡¯s flashlight, long corridors, houses, and stone bridges were displayed in front of the two of them one by one. ¡°Is this the Divine Cave?¡± Yang Guang was stunned and walked in. Xu Ling followed him. The two of them didn¡¯t walk far before they reached the stone arch bridge. Standing here, they could see the hundreds of palaces. How was this an ancient tomb? It was clearly an ancient palace! Of course, everything inside was carved out of stone and not wood. If it was wood, it would probably rot and collapse in the cave after a short period of time. As she faced the group of stone palaces, Xu Ling¡¯s palms were sweating, and her body was trembling slightly. Sensing that Yang Guang was feeling the same, she couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°With such a big place, what¡­ what should we do?¡± ¡°I want to claim this place for myself, but it¡¯s obviously impossible!¡± Yang Guang clicked his tongue and turned to look at her. ¡°Do you think this place will become a scenic spot if we develop it?¡± ¡°Uh, it will definitely work. It¡¯s just that we have to wait for the cultural relics department to come over and finish examining it before it¡¯s possible.¡± Xu Ling said as she looked at the palace in front of her. Suddenly, her eyes shone. ¡°If it¡¯s possible, Qingshan Village can become a tourist village!¡± ¡°Let¡¯s not worry about that for now. I need to see if there are any gold, silver, or jewelry before I consider anything else!¡± Yang Guang remembered his main goal. He pulled her down the stone bridge and went straight to the house in front of him.. Chapter 95 - Send Money Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was also afraid of being poor. As long as there was an opportunity to make a fortune, he didn¡¯t want to miss it! However, it was a pity that although there were many houses in this space in the middle of the mountain, and the pavilions were built very luxuriously, there were only carved beams and painted buildings here, but there were no treasures at all. After circling around, he didn¡¯t find any gold or silver. Yang Guang instantly felt dejected. Sensing his disappointment, Xu Ling smiled and said, ¡°Alright, although there are no treasures, this palace itself is still a treasure. Believe me, once it is publicized, it might shock the world!¡± ¡°Uh, shocking the world can¡¯t be exchanged for money!¡± Yang Guang forced a laugh and continued, ¡°How strange. There¡¯s nothing at all in such a big house!¡± ¡°Who knows? Maybe there¡¯s something we don¡¯t know!¡± Xu Ling said and then looked at him. ¡°Alright, let¡¯s go home first.¡± Her tone was gentle. She knew that Yang Guang was in a bad mood, so she was coaxing him. However, Yang Guang shook his head. ¡°There¡¯s no rush. Let¡¯s sit outside for a while!¡± After saying that, the two of them left and returned to the platform outside. It wasn¡¯t noon yet, so Xu Ling wasn¡¯t in a hurry to leave. Therefore, when she saw Yang Guang sitting down, she sat down beside him. With the mountains and rivers in the distance and vaguely visible the sight of Qingshan Village in the forest, Yang Guang turned to look at Xu Ling and said, ¡°Can I contract this place to develop tourism on my own?¡± ¡°Uh, I¡¯m afraid it¡¯s going to be a little difficult!¡± Xu Ling thought for a moment and continued, ¡°But it¡¯s not impossible. I can help you a little!¡± ¡°How?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s interest was piqued and he quickly asked. ¡°You can contract this mountain first. When the time comes, even if the county is in charge of the tourism development, you¡¯ll still be a shareholder here!¡± Xu Ling paused for a moment after she finished speaking. ¡°After all, it is a cultural relic-level palace complex. I¡¯m afraid it will be difficult for you to contract it personally.¡± ¡°Hmm, at the very least, we have to wait for the experts to finish looking at it and give a conclusion before deciding whether to set up a scenic tourist spot.¡± Yang Guang nodded and continued, ¡°Your plan is indeed very good. I will first contract this mountain first!¡± ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll help you get the documents when we get back. This is easy!¡± Xu Ling said with a smile. When he saw her smile, Yang Guang¡¯s gloominess was swept away. Then, he couldn¡¯t help but hold her hand. ¡°Thank you!¡± ¡°No need. I¡¯m doing this for the sake of Qingshan Village, and I trust you!¡± Xu Ling smiled and didn¡¯t break free from his grasp. She continued, ¡°If the tourist spot can be built, I believe that you won¡¯t just profit on your own. You¡¯ll definitely help the villagers get rich together!¡± ¡°Of course, they are all my fellow villagers!¡± Yang Guang smiled. Their eyes met and when they looked into each other¡¯s eyes, both of them froze at the same time. Then, when she saw that Yang Guang was about to approach her, Xu Ling¡¯ blushed and she hurriedly avoided his gaze. ¡± ¡­¡± Seeing that she was nervous, Yang Guang could only force a smile and didn¡¯t continue. Then, the two of them sat side by side and looked at the scenery in the distance. As they talked about the future development, their mood became very relaxed. When it was noon, Yang Guang first returned to the canyon from the rope. Then, he watched Xu Ling slowly come down. When she was about to reach the ground, he went up and carried her down. After their previous contact, Xu Ling was already used to it and wasn¡¯t as shy as before. Then, the two of them ate lunch by the pond and cleaned up the mess before leaving together. After returning to the village, Xu Ling immediately went to the village headquarters to draft the contract. When Yang Guang returned home, he realized that his sister-in-law and Yaya weren¡¯t at home. Neither was the electric car. He reckoned that they had gone back to their parents¡¯ house to visit her mother. At around two in the afternoon, Yang Guang heard the sound of a car engine outside. When he went out and saw that it was Qi Yingxue, he quickly ran out. ¡°Why didn¡¯t you inform me beforehand that you were coming?¡± Yang Guang was beaming with joy as he asked with a smile. ¡°I did, but I couldn¡¯t get through to you and Lingling. I wanted to ask you what happened!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Uh, both of our phones were broken yesterday!¡± Only then did Yang Guang remember and hurriedly explained what had happened yesterday. Qi Yingxue was shocked when she heard that and quickly said, ¡°Oh my God, I didn¡¯t even know that such a big incident had happened!¡± ¡°It¡¯s alright, sis. Look, I¡¯m fine!¡± Yang Guang smiled and asked, ¡°Oh right, why are you here?¡± ¡°I¡¯m here to give you money!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and opened the trunk of the car. Yang Guang saw a large travel bag inside and asked curiously, ¡°What kind of money?¡± ¡°Is your memory that bad?¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and continued, ¡°It¡¯s the money for the Ganoderma. Uncle Chen didn¡¯t sell it to anyone else, so he took it himself. Here is 500,000 yuan. You can count it!¡± ¡°Huh? That much?!¡± Yang Guang was stunned when he heard that, and his eyes were widened. ¡°It¡¯s not much. The Ganoderma is so big that no one in the entire country has ever found such a big one before. After he brought it back, he put it in the swimming pool. There have been a lot of people who have gone to see it in the past two days!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and continued, ¡°Uncle Chen is very happy and told me to send the money to you. You have to accept it even if you don¡¯t want to!¡± ¡°Alright then. You don¡¯t have to be so polite. We are all friends!¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°It¡¯s because we are friends that I have to give you the money!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and asked, ¡°Oh right, where are Xiaowan and Xu Ling?¡± ¡°One went back to her mother¡¯s house and the other is in the village headquarters. Why don¡¯t you go into the house and sit for a while?¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. ¡°That¡¯s fine. I¡¯m not in a hurry to go back anyway!¡± Qi Yingxue nodded and let Yang Guang carry the bag. Then, the two of them entered the house together. After sitting down, she said to Yang Guang, ¡°Fortunately, nothing happened to you. Otherwise, if Xiaowan knew about it, she would definitely worry!¡± When he saw her smile, it was obvious to him that she was teasing him. Yang Guang chuckled and scratched his head. ¡°What about you? Won¡¯t you worry?¡± ¡°Me?¡± Qi Yingxue blushed and quickly said, ¡°Of course I would be worried, but I¡¯m different from Xiaowan!¡± Yang Guang looked at her. ¡°How is it different?¡± ¡°Gee, in any case, we¡¯re different. Don¡¯t ask about such obvious things!¡± Qi Yingxue rolled her eyes at him and then asked, ¡°Oh right, have you studied the black stone again?¡± ¡°Not yet. Didn¡¯t I go into the mountains again this morning? I have a new idea!¡± Yang Guang laughed. ¡°What idea?¡± Qi Yingxue asked curiously. ¡°Well, I¡¯ll tell you when Xu Ling comes back. It¡¯s something great!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and deliberately kept her in suspense. Seeing him act like this, Qi Yingxue shook her head helplessly, then laughed lightly. ¡°You¡¯re really naughty!¡± Her smile was dazzling, and Yang Guang¡¯s heart stirred when he saw it.. He thought to himself, ¡°If I could marry Xu Ling and Yingxue at the same time, I would really be living the high life!¡± Chapter 96 - Contracting the Mountain Forest Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Just as they were talking, Xu Ling rushed into the house from outside. When she saw Qi Yingxue, she immediately smiled and said, ¡°You¡¯re here!¡± ¡°You¡¯re in such a hurry that you¡¯re sweating!¡± Qi Yingxue stood up and looked at her. ¡°Why are you in such a hurry?¡± ¡°I got a contract to contract the mountain forest. Let Yang Guang take a look first!¡± After Xu Ling finished speaking, she took out the contract. Qi Yingxue took it and looked at it, then turned her head to look at Yang Guang. ¡°Is this the great thing you mentioned?¡± ¡°Yep!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°You¡¯re not an outsider. I¡¯ll tell you the truth!¡± Following that, he told Xu Ling about the discovery of a group of palaces in the mountain. It was a pity that his phone was broken and he couldn¡¯t take a picture. Otherwise, Qi Yingxue would have been extremely shocked when she saw the scene there! Of course, Qi Yingxue was already shocked enough after listening to Yang Guang and Xu Ling¡¯s words. After listening to the idea of the two of them developing tourism, she immediately nodded. ¡°Good idea!¡± ¡°But there¡¯s a problem. The capital needed to develop tourism is huge. It can¡¯t be done with just hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars!¡± When Yang Guang heard that, he said with a smile, ¡°I¡¯ve thought about it. When we can really develop the tourist spot, I¡¯ll use this lease contract to buy shares. When that time comes, I¡¯ll just take a small share!¡± ¡°That won¡¯t do!¡± Qi Yingxue immediately shook her head. ¡°If you want to start your own independent investment business, then do it. Otherwise, there will be a lot of constraints. In the end, you¡¯ll lose the initiative, and the profits will be taken away by the investors!¡± ¡°Uh, but I don¡¯t have that much money!¡± Yang Guang said helplessly. ¡°You¡¯re very capable, so you will definitely be able to make money. Moreover, building a tourist spot can¡¯t be done in just a couple of days. I reckon that it will take at least half a year!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°You are a business owner, while Yang Guang and I don¡¯t have much experience in this aspect. You should help to plan for the tourist spot!¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Okay, this is my responsibility. I¡¯ll definitely help you think it through!¡± Qi Yingxue nodded and continued, ¡°You guys can settle the contract first. I¡¯ll arrange the rest!¡± ¡°Then thank you, Yingxue!¡± Yang Guang quickly said. ¡°No need to be so polite. I¡¯ll go back first. If there¡¯s anything, call me!¡± After saying that, Qi Yingxue remembered that their phones were broken, so she added, ¡°Oh right, hurry up and buy a cell phone. How can anyone be without a phone in this modern age?!¡± ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll go downtown to buy it in the afternoon!¡± Yang Guang nodded and then sent Qi Yingxue out with Xu Ling. After the car left, Yang Guang turned to look at Xu Ling. ¡°Are you going with me?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± Xu Ling hesitated for a moment, but still nodded. ¡°Then let¡¯s make it clear first. Today¡¯s phone purchase is on me. You¡¯re not allowed to spend money!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Why?¡± Xu Ling was puzzled and looked at him as she asked. ¡°Your phone was broken because of me, so I have to take responsibility!¡± Yang Guang said seriously. Xu Ling froze, then she smiled. ¡°Alright, you have no shortage of money now anyway!¡± ¡°Good girl!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and pushed out the battery car. Then, Xu Ling sat in the back seat and the two of them left the house. On the road, Yang Guang deliberately stepped on the brakes a few times and took advantage of the situation. Although Xu Ling was angry, she didn¡¯t say anything. The two of them went to the mobile phone shop in town. Although the latest model of the mobile phone was a little more expensive, it was just a difference of about a hundred yuan. Therefore, Yang Guang bought two of the latest models and went home happily with the mobile phone. After returning to the village, Xu Ling went door-to-door to inform the villagers that there would be a meeting the next morning. Because the contract was for barren mountains, according to the rules, there had to be a villagers meeting. Only after all the villagers agreed could the contract be signed. When Yang Guang returned home, he saw that Wu Xiaolian had already returned, so he asked, ¡°You went back to your mother¡¯s house?¡± ¡°Yeah, when did you guys come back? Why did you go out on your bikes again?¡± Wu Xiaolian asked. ¡°I went to buy a cell phone!¡± Yang Guang smiled and reached out to pick up Yaya, who pounced on him. He carried the child and asked, ¡°Did you see the travel bag in the house?¡± ¡°I saw it. Where did it come from?¡± Wu Xiaolian asked. ¡°Yingxue sent it over. You haven¡¯t seen what¡¯s inside, right? Open it and see!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°What is it? Can¡¯t you just tell me directly?¡± Wu Xiaolian didn¡¯t know what was going on and said with a smile. ¡°No, it¡¯s better for you to see it with your own eyes. If I tell you, there won¡¯t be any surprises!¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. ¡°Gee, you¡¯re so stubborn!¡± Wu Xiaolian was helpless. She turned around and entered the room. When she opened the zipper and saw the bundles of cash inside, she immediately let out a cry of surprise! Following that, she hurriedly ran out of the room and asked in a panic, ¡°How could there be so much money?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry, this is the money from the sale of the Ganoderma. It¡¯s five hundred thousand!¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. Wu Xiaolian¡¯s mouth instantly dropped open. ¡°My God, that¡¯s so much!¡± ¡°Yeah, I didn¡¯t expect it either, but Uncle Chen insisted on giving it, so I had no choice but to accept it!¡± Yang Guang said with a smile and then reminded her, ¡°Don¡¯t save this money for now. Put it away. Together with the 100,000 yuan that Yingxue gave us previously, our family now has 600,000 yuan!¡± He was talking about cash. In fact, the greenhouse project hadn¡¯t used up all the money. There were still more than 200,000 yuan with Xu Ling. ¡°This is like a dream. In the past, our family couldn¡¯t even take out 6,000 yuan, but now, we have 600,000 yuan!¡± Wu Xiaolian exclaimed in awe and quickly ran back to the house to tidy up. No matter what, she was still very happy. After all, with money in the family, she felt a sense of security and confidence. The day passed quickly. The next morning, at eight o¡¯clock, many people sat under the shade of the trees in the village headquarters. Every family in Qingshan Village came with stools. When everyone was present, Xu Ling told everyone that Yang Guang was going to contract the mountain forest. Everyone in the village knew that Yang Guang was well-off, so they weren¡¯t surprised. He was young and wealthy, so he could contract if they wanted to! But unexpectedly, most of the villagers had no objections. Sun Guoying, who had been silent, suddenly said, ¡°Ms. Xu, this isn¡¯t right. I am the village chief after all. Are you going to give it to Yang Guang without going through me?¡± ¡°Village chief, this is a good thing for Qingshan Village. I feel that no matter from which angle you look at it from, you shouldn¡¯t refuse!¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Who said that? No matter what, I won¡¯t agree!¡± Sun Guoying rolled his eyes and turned to look at his relatives, the ones who were deprived of public assistance at that time. ¡°Yes, we don¡¯t agree either. We don¡¯t agree to give it to him!¡± Those people immediately shouted. Xu Ling didn¡¯t expect such a scene to happen, so she froze. Yang Guang didn¡¯t care. He stood up and looked at Sun Guoying.. ¡°Are you sure you don¡¯t agree?¡± Chapter 97 - Heartache Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Sun Guoying¡¯s neck stiffened. ¡°That¡¯s right. I just don¡¯t agree. What can you do to me?¡± ¡°I can¡¯t do anything to you, but if you want to make an enemy out of the entire village, then it¡¯s hard to say!¡± Yang Guang sneered as he turned to the crowd and said, ¡°Ms. Xu didn¡¯t tell you guys just now that I¡¯m going to spend a lot of money to contract the mountain forest this time. It¡¯s a one-time contract for 50 years, and the contract fee is 800,000 yuan. This money will be divided equally among everyone. Now that the village chief doesn¡¯t agree, no family will be able to get the 20,000 to 30,000 yuan of dividends!¡± ¡°What?¡± Everyone¡¯s eyes widened when they heard that. In fact, the original contract fee wasn¡¯t that much. The woodland in the mountains couldn¡¯t be felled carelessly. Only some mountain goods could be harvested, so the contract price wasn¡¯t high at all. The original plan¡¯s budget was only two to three hundred thousand yuan. However, because Sun Guoying and his relatives were causing trouble, Yang Guang increased the contract fee. This way, every family could get more than ten thousand yuan, which immediately made people restless. If they were to get a few thousand yuan, they really didn¡¯t have the need to go against the village chief. But now that they heard that they could get 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, many people immediately refused! Mrs. Niu was the first to stand up. She pointed at Sun Guoying and scolded, ¡°Mr. Sun, you old fart. If you want to be the village chief, then think of how to benefit everyone. If you don¡¯t want to be the village chief, then get lost!¡± The two of them had a personal grudge to begin with, so Mrs. Niu didn¡¯t hold back in her scolding. Immediately, Sun Guoying blushed from humiliation! With Mrs. Niu taking the lead, the women in the village began to curse him one after another. They scolded Sun Guoying and the others profusely until they were overcome with shame! In the end, it was Xu Ling who resolved the dispute and stopped everyone¡¯s angry scolding. She turned to look at Sun Guoying. ¡°Village chief, Yang Guang really wants to give everyone some benefits this time. Don¡¯t you want the 20,000 plus dividends?¡± ¡°I, I¡¯m just afraid of being scammed by this kid. To put it bluntly, I don¡¯t trust him!¡± Sun Guoying argued. ¡°You don¡¯t trust me?¡± Yang Guang sneered when he heard that. ¡°Do you believe that I can smash you to death with cash right now?¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Seeing his serious expression, Sun Guoying suddenly felt uncertain. He thought to himself, did this kid really have that much money? That was impossible. Where did he earn it from? He had an idea, but he didn¡¯t say it out loud. He smiled and said, ¡°Okay, if you have the ability, then bring it out. As long as you can bring out the money, I¡¯ll agree immediately!¡± ¡°Okay, I was waiting for you to say that!¡± Yang Guang sneered and turned to say to everyone, ¡°Don¡¯t be anxious. I¡¯ll go home to get the money now. Everyone, wait!¡± Under everyone¡¯s gaze, Yang Guang hurried home and quickly dug out the money that Wu Xiaolian had hidden yesterday! Carrying the bag, he returned to the village headquarters. In front of everyone, Yang Guang placed six large bundles of cash on the table. ¡°This is 600,000 in cash and 200,000 in the card, which you can cash out at any time. Now, do you believe me?¡± Everyone was dumbfounded. Some people had never seen so much money in their entire lives, so they were actually speechless for a moment. All of them were staring straight at the money. Xu Ling saw that the timing was right, so she looked at Sun Guoying. ¡°Village chief, what do you have to say now?¡± ¡°What else can I say? Since Yang Guang has money, then I¡¯ll give it to him. I wonder if the mushrooms and medicinal herbs in the mountain are enough for him to earn back his capital!¡± Sun Guoying said. Yang Guang smiled and looked at him. ¡°Village chief, you don¡¯t have to worry about this. Whether I earn or lose money has nothing to do with you!¡± Soon, all the villagers agreed. After signing the contract, Yang Guang officially contracted a mountain forest on the west side of the mountain. As for the dividends, after calculating the amount on the spot, he determined each family could get more than 26,000 yuan. As for the fractional currency, everyone expressed that they didn¡¯t want it. They only wanted the whole amount! This saved a lot of trouble, so Xu Ling started to distribute the money to everyone on the spot. The 600,000 yuan was quickly distributed. There were still a few households that didn¡¯t get the money. However, everyone believed in Yang Guang, so they weren¡¯t in a hurry. They could split it after he went to the bank to withdraw the money. After distributing the money, Xu Ling took the contract home. Xu Ling looked at Yang Guang and said, ¡°Hey, why are you crying?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s eyes were red as he hurriedly explained, ¡°I¡¯m not crying. I¡¯m just a little distressed to part with the money!¡± Xu Ling laughed when she heard that. ¡°So that¡¯s how it is. If it were me, if 800,000 would be gone in the blink of an eye, I would indeed feel very distressed!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right!¡± Yang Guang sighed and said with a sullen look on his face, ¡°Who knows when I¡¯ll be able to earn 800,000 next time!¡± ¡°It definitely won¡¯t be difficult for you!¡± Xu Ling smiled and comforted him gently, ¡°You still have Tianma and the greenhouse. You¡¯ll earn money soon!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Xiaolian, don¡¯t be stingy. Our family is also a part of Qingshan Village. We can also get more than 20,000 yuan. This money is enough to spend!¡± Wu Xiaolian comforted him. She already knew why Yang Guang wanted to contract the barren mountain. Although she didn¡¯t know anything about investing, she was still very supportive of Yang Guang. Even though she was also a little distressed about the money, Wu Xiaolian still considered the big picture. After all, the money was earned by Yang Guang, so he had the right to distribute it however he saw fit. ¡°Alright, don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ll take my time!¡± Yang Guang forced a smile and walked back to his room with heavy steps. Wu Xiaolian and Xu Ling looked at each other and burst into laughter at the same time! That afternoon, Xu Ling reported to her superior about the discovery of a cave in the mountain. It was a huge group of palaces. The next morning, a few cars drove into Qingshan Village. More than twenty people came down with many boxes and entered the mountain. At first, the villagers didn¡¯t know what had happened. Later, when Sun Wannian told them, the people found out about the things found in the mountain! And Sun Wannian said this because Yang Guang told her to. The night before, he brought wine and food to Mr. Sun¡¯s house and told the truth about the two nameless corpses. When Sun Wannian heard the story, he was dumbfounded, but he also understood that Yang Guang and Xu Ling had no choice at that time, so he nodded and said, ¡°Yang Guang, this incident happened because of my family¡¯s sheep. Don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t betray you even if I know what happened!¡± ¡°That¡¯s not what I want to say!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°What I mean is, Uncle Sun, you¡¯re a sheepherder. When the time comes, you¡¯ll be the one who discovers the thing in the mountain!¡± ¡°Oh, oh, oh, I understand!¡± Sun Wannian suddenly understood and nodded. ¡°Alright, you¡¯re quite sharp-witted. I¡¯ll help you with this!¡± Only after all of this happened did Sun Wannian¡¯s vivid description of the day come to be. After the villagers heard it, they were immediately filled with envy for Yang Guang. They all felt that he was going to be making a fortune again! At Sun Guoying¡¯s house, after hearing about the incident in the mountain, the old man was so angry that he smashed his own teacup. ¡°I knew that Yang Guang wasn¡¯t that simple.. So that¡¯s the reason he spent 800,000 yuan to contract the mountain forest!¡± Chapter 98 - Beautiful County Commissioner Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The experts entered the mountain and stayed there for three days! These days, there would occasionally be people going out of the mountain to purchase daily necessities. The rest of the people stayed in the mountain and continued to study the palaces in the depths of the mountain. Yang Guang¡¯s heart was in his throat. He thought to himself, ¡°if they were to discover some ancient ruins in the end, would the area be completely protected, and would they not allow anyone to enter?¡± If that was the case, then his plans would have been in vain! After waiting anxiously for a few days, when the experts finally began to evacuate, he received a call from Qi Yingxue, who said, ¡°Come to the county. It¡¯s almost done!¡± ¡°What¡¯s almost done?¡± Yang Guang was a little confused and asked blankly. ¡°I mean the tourist spot. After the experts leave, someone will pick you up. We¡¯ll talk when we reach the county!¡± Qi Yingxue said and hung up the phone. Yang Guang looked at the screen speechlessly. He thought to himself, ¡°You know that I¡¯m anxious, yet you¡¯re still deliberately keeping me in suspense. You¡¯re too unscrupulous!¡± But at this time, Xu Ling smiled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. Since Yingxue said so, she must be certain. So don¡¯t worry. Go hear the good news!¡± ¡°Do you want to go with me?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°I won¡¯t go. The greenhouse is about to be completed and the vegetables will be planted soon. I have to keep an eye on it,¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll try my best to come back early!¡± Yang Guang nodded. Not long after, a car stopped at the entrance. The driver honked twice. When they arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, the driver looked at Yang Guang and asked, ¡°Are you Mr. Yang? County Commissioner asked me to bring you to the city. Get in the car!¡± ¡°County Commissioner?¡± Yang Guang was confused. Wasn¡¯t it Qi Yingxue? Why was there a change in personnel? He got in the car with doubts. When he saw that the car was filled with supplies and there were no experts present, Yang Guang was slightly disappointed. He wanted to ask about the situation while he was at it. If that was the case, he could only wait until they reached the county! There was no conversation along the way. After the car entered the county, it drove into the county government¡¯s large courtyard. After that, the driver stopped the car and said to Yang Guang, ¡°Go ahead, the county head is waiting for you in the conference room on the second floor!¡± ¡°Uh, may I ask why the county head is looking for me?¡± Yang Guang was uncertain and asked curiously. ¡°I don¡¯t know about that. You will find out when you get there!¡± The driver said. Helpless, Yang Guang could only get out of the car and enter the government building nervously. After all, he was the county head. He had never seen such a high-ranking official before, so of course, he was nervous. However, when he went upstairs and came to the meeting room, Yang Guang immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Because there were only three people here, and two of them were acquaintances! One was Qi Yingxue, and the other was Chen Zhiyuan! As for the other beautiful woman who looked to be in her mid-twenties and wore glasses, she was naturally County Commissioner Ms. Li. Yang Guang didn¡¯t expect her to be a woman. When he froze after he entered the door, Chen Zhiyuan smiled and said, ¡°We meet again. Come, let me introduce you. This is my student, Li Jinyun.¡± ¡°Hello, County Commissioner Ms. Li. I¡¯m Yang Guang.¡± ¡°Mr. Yang, you¡¯re quite young. Please take a seat!¡± Li Jinyun smiled and said gently. Yang Guang sat down with a puzzled look on his face and glanced at Qi Yingxue. Qi Yingxue smiled at him but didn¡¯t say anything. ¡°Mr. Yang, perhaps you don¡¯t know, but the palace found in the mountain of your village is actually the legendary ancient land of the Flying Dragon Nation. The archaeologists have just confirmed it!¡± Li Jinyun said. ¡°Oh, is it really the Imperial Palace of a country?¡± Yang Guang came to a realization and quickly asked, ¡°Is it very important to seal it up for research?¡± ¡°The research value there is indeed very high, but it¡¯s a pity that there aren¡¯t any cultural relics left behind. There are only some buildings, and the style of those buildings was imitated from the ancient Hwa Nation civilization.¡± Li Jinyun said, then continued, ¡°Mr. Chen came to me and said that he wanted to set up a tourism development company to specifically develop tourism for the palace. I think this is very feasible!¡± ¡°Is that so?¡± Yang Guang was secretly delighted when he heard that and immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Li Jinyun nodded. ¡°Our county¡¯s economy has never been developed. It¡¯s rare for us to have such a major discovery. It can be the cornerstone for the development of the tourism industry in the future. I¡¯m very supportive of this project!¡± ¡°That¡¯s good. I thought I couldn¡¯t let people visit it at will!¡± Yang Guang laughed. ¡°No, even if the cultural relics department has such a request, I will try my best to fight for the opportunity!¡± Li Jinyun smiled and continued, ¡°But there¡¯s a problem. I heard that the mountain forest was contracted by you, right?¡± ¡°Yes, yes. You won¡¯t take it back, will you?¡± Yang Guang asked nervously. Li Jinyun smiled. ¡°Of course not. Since you are the contractor of the mountain forest and the county is in charge of developing the tourism industry, I must coordinate with you first. I invited you here today for this!¡± Seeing the smiles on Chen Zhiyuan and Qi Yingxue¡¯s faces, Yang Guang immediately understood! Hence, he immediately nodded. ¡°There¡¯s nothing to coordinate on. I agree!¡± Li Jinyun was speechless. With a helpless smile, she continued, ¡°Alright then. Since that¡¯s the case, there¡¯s nothing much to talk about. Once the tourism development company is established, I will support your development!¡± ¡°Ms. Yun, you don¡¯t know much about the situation in Qingshan Village. Just supporting the development isn¡¯t enough, and the main reason is that the road isn¡¯t easy to walk on!¡± Qi Yingxue said at this time. ¡°Oh, that¡¯s alright. If you¡¯re sure that you want to invest in tourism, the county can coordinate and fix the road first!¡± Li Jinyun said. ¡°That¡¯s great!¡± Yang Guang almost jumped up when he heard that! He originally wanted to build the road himself, but he needed too much money. He couldn¡¯t afford it at all! Now that he heard that the county was willing to take responsibility, what else was there to say?! Of course, he had to rejoice! ¡°Alright, Ms. Yun, that¡¯s it for now. Let Yingxue contact you more frequently in the future. I won¡¯t disturb your work!¡± Chen Zhiyuan slowly stood up and said. ¡°Don¡¯t say that. I¡¯ll get nervous!¡± Li Jinyun held Chen Zhiyuan¡¯s arm and said with a smile. ¡°What¡¯s there to be nervous about? You¡¯re the head of a county now. I¡¯m a retired old man!¡± Chen Zhiyuan said with a smile. ¡°You can¡¯t say that, sir. Although I¡¯m retired, I¡¯m still thinking about the development of our county. I really have to thank you for giving me such a good project this time!¡± Li Jinyun said with a smile. ¡°This project is quite nice. Once it starts operating, when foreign tourists come, not only will the entrance fee of the tourist spot be increased, but even the food and accommodations of the county will also profit. You should take it seriously!¡± Chen Zhiyuan said and walked out of the conference room. Li Jinyun sent the three of them downstairs. After watching them get into the car and leave, he turned around and went back. Yang Guang sat in the passenger seat and looked at Qi Yingxue, who was looking at the car. ¡°You¡¯re really amazing. You actually found the county head directly!¡± Qi Yingxue winked at him. ¡°This is all because of Uncle Chen. Don¡¯t thank me!¡± ¡°Yes, yes, yes. I¡¯ll thank Mr. Chen!¡± Yang Guang turned around and said.. Chapter 99 - Psycopath Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Facing Yang Guang¡¯s sincere smile, Chen Zhiyuan smiled. ¡°There¡¯s nothing to thank me for. I¡¯ll only support you if you¡¯re doing the right thing. If you do shady things want me to speak up for you, I won¡¯t!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Mr. Chen. I¡¯m not that kind of person!¡± Yang Guang smiled. Not long after the car left the county government, it soon returned to Chen Zhiyuan¡¯s residence. The old man got out of the car and looked at Yang Guang before looking at Qi Yingxue. ¡°Alright, I¡¯m tired and need to go back to rest. You young people can move around freely now!¡± Qi Yingxue could discern the insinuation of his words and immediately blushed! However, after she got back into the car and left the residential area, she immediately looked at Yang Guang. ¡°Are you going back?¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Yang Guang froze and said quick-wittedly, ¡°It¡¯s fine even if we don¡¯t go back. We should celebrate today¡¯s incident!¡± ¡°Okay, then I¡¯ll call Xiaowan and ask her to come too!¡± Qi Yingxue said and pulled over to the side of the car. Then, she took out her cell phone. After the call was connected, she asked with a smile, ¡°Do you want to come out for dinner tonight?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t want to go. I¡¯m exhausted today. I want to sleep,¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°Is that so? Alright then. Yang Guang and I will go for dinner together!¡± Qi Yingxue said with a smile. ¡°Huh? That fella came to the county?¡± Mu Xiaowan¡¯s voice suddenly increased by eight octaves as she immediately asked. ¡°Yeah, he¡¯s right next to me!¡± Qi Yingxue said with a smile. ¡°Uh¡­¡± Mu Xiaowan hesitated for a moment, then said, ¡°I have something to ask him. Where are you? I¡¯ll go look for you!¡± ¡°Come to my hotel room on the third floor!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and hung up the phone. Then, she turned to look at Yang Guang. ¡°You have quite some appeal. She didn¡¯t want to come, but when she heard that you were here, Wan ¡®Er was instantly incentivized!¡± Her words had an ulterior meaning. When Yang Guang heard this, he looked at her and smiled. ¡°Are you jealous?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t mess around. Why would I be jealous?¡± Qi Yingxue looked at him with a stern look on her face. ¡°You can¡¯t joke like that in front of Wan ¡®Er!¡± ¡°Why? Are you afraid that she¡¯ll be jealous?¡± Yang Guang asked. Qi Yingxue glanced at him. ¡°Why else? Can¡¯t you tell that Wan ¡®Er likes you?¡± ¡°I can tell that she likes to bicker with me!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°Also, I heard Xu Ling and Wan ¡®Er say that they both think that you¡¯re the one who likes me!¡± Qi Yingxue immediately blushed. She spat and said, ¡°Don¡¯t talk nonsense. That¡¯s impossible!¡± Yang Guang laughed inside. Why would she blush if it was impossible? However, he knew that she was panicking and it wouldn¡¯t be good to continue interrogating her, so he didn¡¯t say anything. He just chuckled. After returning to the restaurant, Qi Yingxue first went to check on her work arrangements for the night. Yang Guang went to the private room where he had eaten before. After Yang Guang sat down for a few minutes, the door opened and Mu Xiaowan rushed in! Seeing her outfit, Yang Guang immediately smiled! It was because Mu Xiaowan was dressed very revealingly, the tank top and shorts exposed most of her fair skin. Yang Guang enjoyed the food and asked with a smile, ¡°Why are you in such a hurry? It¡¯s not like I can fly away!¡± Ignoring his gaze, Mu Xiaowan sat down and asked unhappily, ¡°Why did you come to the county again?¡± ¡°I can¡¯t come?¡± Yang Guang looked at her and saw that she was deliberately pretending to be dissatisfied. He felt amused. ¡°Weren¡¯t you busy planting vegetables and growing tianma while preparing to make a fortune? Why are you always running to the city? Why did you look for Yingxue?!¡± Mu Xiaowan pouted and asked. ¡°She was the one who looked for me, okay?!¡± Yang Guang shrugged and continued, ¡°You¡¯ll find out later!¡± ¡°No, hurry up and say it!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. Yang Guang¡¯s neck stiffened. ¡°I won¡¯t!¡± ¡°You won¡¯t say it, right?!¡± Mu Xiaowan¡¯s eyes widened. She jumped up and grabbed his neck. ¡°Are you going to say it or not? !¡± Yang Guang suddenly couldn¡¯t breathe. Naturally, he had to resist. So he pushed with both hands and went straight for her chest! Mu Xiaowan had already been prepared for this move. She immediately let go and took a few steps back. ¡°Hmph, I knew you would act like this. Shameless!¡± Yang Guang didn¡¯t stand on ceremony either. ¡°Hmph, you still came over even though you knew I would!¡± Mu Xiaowan was speechless. As the two of them stared at each other, the door opened and Qi Yingxue entered. When she entered and saw the two of them, she smiled. ¡°The two of you really fight whenever you two see each other. Could it be that you two are mutually incompatible?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right, this fellow is my nemesis!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. Qi Yingxue was a little speechless. Seeing that the two of them were still staring at each other, she quickly said, ¡°Alright, alright. You two miss each other when you guys can¡¯t see each other, but jump at each other¡¯s throats when you two actually see each other? I really can¡¯t stand you two!¡± ¡°What are you talking about?!¡± Mu Xiaowan immediately blushed and she quickly pouted. ¡°Don¡¯t misunderstand me. I¡¯m talking about Yang Guang!¡± Qi Yingxue covered her mouth and laughed. ¡°Huh?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s face was filled with confusion. He looked at her and asked, ¡°When did I say that I miss her?¡± ¡°You didn¡¯t say?¡± Qi Yingxue glared at him. Her eyes were full of warning! Yang Guang scratched his head. ¡°I, I said it?¡± ¡°You¡¯re good in every way. It¡¯s just that your memory is too bad!¡± When Qi Yingxue saw Mu Xiaowan¡¯s surprised expression, she smirked slightly. She was obviously very happy, so she was instantly very smug. Then, she sat down and told him why she wanted to eat today. The longer Mu Xiaowan listened, the more surprised she became. By the time Qi Yingxue finished, her eyes were already widened. She looked at Yang Guang and said, ¡°Good fellow, you actually killed two people!¡± Yang Guang looked at her with a speechless expression. ¡°Isn¡¯t your focus a little strange? Everyone¡¯s focus is on Flying Dragon Nation¡¯s Palace!¡± ¡°But you also killed people. You can still sleep soundly at night afterward?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. ¡°Not only did I sleep well, but I also ate well. So what?!¡± Yang Guang said speechlessly. ¡°Don¡¯t you feel guilty at all?¡± Mu Xiaowan looked at him and then turned to look at Qi Yingxue. ¡°This guy might be a pesycopath, isn¡¯t he?¡± ¡°Uh, when you two are quarreling, don¡¯t drag me into it!¡± Qi Yingxue rolled her eyes. Yang Guang was also at a loss. He looked at Mu Xiaowan and asked, ¡°Then let me ask you, if you and Xu Ling were together and there were two villains who wanted to kill you and bully her, what would you do?¡± Mu Xiaowan tilted her head. ¡°Of course, I would kill them. Do you still need me to say it?¡± Yang Guang slapped his thigh. ¡°That¡¯s right. They almost killed us. How can I not retaliate? Besides, those two people were extremely vicious. They might have killed people before. If I kill them, I might even be doing justice!¡± ¡°Alright, you¡¯re right!¡± Mu Xiaowan nodded and no longer dwelled on it. She then looked at Yang Guang and said, ¡°You¡¯re impressive. In the blink of an eye, you¡¯re going to become the big boss of a tourism company?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. It¡¯s not too late for you to suck up to me now!¡± Yang Guang smiled and said proudly.. Chapter 100 - Want to Fight? Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Upon hearing Yang Guang¡¯s words, Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes and looked at him. ¡°Do you want me to suck up to you?¡± It was obvious that he was up to no good. Yang Guang chuckled. ¡°I¡¯m giving you a chance. When I become a billionaire in the future, it¡¯ll be hard for you to even see me!¡± ¡°Really?¡± Mu Xiaowan chuckled. She picked up the kettle on the table. ¡°Alright, then stick your butt up first. I¡¯ll give you a good pat!¡± ¡°Look at how violent this woman is. She always wants to fight!¡± Yang Guang quickly said. Qi Yingxue smiled. ¡°I¡¯ve already said that I won¡¯t get involved. The two of you can fight as much as you want!¡± Yang Guang immediately felt dejectted. Seeing that Mu Xiaowan was glaring at him, he could only laugh and say, ¡°Forget it. You don¡¯t need to pat me. Let¡¯s just hurry up and eat!¡± ¡°At least you know what to do!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes and put down the kettle. The three of them ate and chatted. Of course, the meal couldn¡¯t be short of alcohol. However, this time, Mu Xiaowan didn¡¯t insist on drinking as much as before. She slowly took small sips, but very quickly, her face flushed. Qi Yingxue¡¯s mood was no less pleasant than Yang Guang¡¯s, so she drank a little today. Her face was also a little flushed, especially her cheeks. They were so flushed that it seemed like she had put blush on her face and she looked very beautiful. The two women were eye candy. Yang Guang ate, drank, and looked at the beauties. He was so happy that he felt like he was on cloud nine, so he naturally didn¡¯t want to go back. Just like that, as they chatted and laughed, it was already nine o¡¯clock in the evening. Most of the guests in the restaurant had already dispersed. Yang Guang was also full from drinking, so he didn¡¯t drink any further. He stood up and said, ¡°It¡¯s getting late. It¡¯s time for you to get off work. I¡¯m leaving first!¡± ¡°Where are you going?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. ¡°To a hotel. Do you really think I¡¯m willing to go to an internet cafe?¡± Yang Guang laughed. Mu Xiaowan nodded. ¡°I also think you¡¯re not that stupid. Let¡¯s go. I¡¯ll send you off!¡± ¡°What a surprise!¡± Yang Guang was very surprised when he heard that and said with a smile. ¡°If you don¡¯t want me to send you off, then forget it. I¡¯m too lazy to bother with you!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes. ¡°Who said I don¡¯t want you to? I¡¯m just surprised!¡± Yang Guang obviously had to be tactful. After chuckling, he looked at Qi Yingxue and said, ¡°I¡¯ll be leaving first.¡± ¡°Okay, I still have to make an inventory. You guys can go!¡± Qi Yingxue didn¡¯t want to get involved in the first place. She really hoped that Yang Guang could interact more with Mu Xiaowan, so she nodded. Outside the restaurant, the streets were still very lively. Pedestrians and cars were coming and going. The night breeze made Mu Xiaowan¡¯s hair flutter. Then, she opened her arms and took a deep breath. ¡°Summer is great!¡± Yang Guang looked at her legs and nodded. ¡°Yes, I like summer the most too!¡± ¡°Then let¡¯s not go to the hotel first. How about we walk on the streets?¡± Mu Xiaowan turned her head and asked. Looking at her girl-next-door appearance with her slightly hunched back with her hands behind her back, Yang Guang had no reason to refuse! So he immediately nodded. ¡°Sure, let¡¯s take a leisurely stroll for the food to digest!¡± So the two of them walked along the sidewalk towards the center of the county. The night breeze gave off a romantic vibe, and there was the faint fragrance of flowers in the air. The people around them were all smiling. In such an environment, the atmosphere between the two of them suddenly became somewhat romantically ambiguous. Although neither of them said anything, the two of them had unknowingly held hands. In fact, Yang Guang and Mu Xiaowan were both a little nervous at the moment, so they didn¡¯t know what to say. This was because they were both afraid that if they suddenly spoke, the atmosphere would be ruined, and they wouldn¡¯t be able to hold hands again. Just like that, the two of them held hands and passed by a street that wasn¡¯t very wide. Although the street wasn¡¯t wide, it was very lively. Dozens of neon lights were either at the entrance or hanging on the second floor, illuminating the street brilliantly! Seeing how lively the place was, Yang Guang took a step into the street. Mu Xiaowan followed him. As she looked at the gorgeous lights, there was an amorous feeling in her heart. However, after walking for a short while, she saw the shop sign in front of her. Yang Guang suddenly stopped. Then, he turned around and looked at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°I suddenly remembered something. I want to go in and look for someone. Do you want to come with me?¡± ¡°Look for someone? Who?¡± Mu Xiaowan was puzzled and asked with confusion. ¡°A person whom I have never seen but heard of several times!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and continued, ¡°His name is Yang Ziming!¡± The grudge between him and Yang Ziming wasn¡¯t big, so Mu Xiaowan had never heard Qi Yingxue mention it. Now that she heard it, she asked, ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± ¡°It¡¯s like this¡­¡± Yang Guang smiled and told her what happened. ¡°So that¡¯s how it is?¡± After Mu Xiaowan heard it, her eyes suddenly lit up. ¡°If you go in, won¡¯t you get into a fight?¡± Yang Guang was a little speechless and asked, ¡°Why are you so excited? Do you want me to fight?¡± ¡°Yeah, you haven¡¯t seen my combat skills, right? Although I¡¯m not as good as you, I¡¯m still very capable!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°Uh, you¡¯re so violent!¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and said, ¡°I just want to ask something, not to fight. Don¡¯t be excited!¡± ¡°I bet you two will fight. You won¡¯t be able to get anything out of him just by asking!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°What do you want to bet?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Here you go again!¡± From the look in his eyes, Mu Xiaowan understood that this guy wouldn¡¯t let go of any opportunity to take advantage of her! Therefore, she rolled her eyes at Yang Guang and said, ¡°I¡¯m not going to bet with you on that kind of lewd thing. I¡¯ll bet on treating you to a meal!¡± ¡°Alright, if there¡¯s a fight, I¡¯ll treat you. If there¡¯s no fight, you treat me!¡± Yang Guang smiled and held her hand as they entered the bright-moon nightclub. It was around ten o¡¯clock in the evening. The shop had just become lively. Young men and women entered one after another, and the women were all dressed in revealing clothes. When he entered the shop and saw the ticket office, Yang Guang realized that the nightclub wasn¡¯t a place just anyone could enter. They actually had to spend money! Therefore, he used the money to buy a ticket. He pulled Mu Xiaowan into the hall on the first floor. The music was deafening and the disco balls on the ceiling kept flashing. Dozens of men and women were jumping around on the dance floor with their hair while whipping their hair around wildly. When Yang Guang saw it, he suddenly felt a bizarre sense of hedonism. However, after a few curious glances, he lost interest in this place. So, he glanced around the venue and went directly to a bar counter with a bartender. ¡°Excuse me, is Yang Ziming here?¡± Under the loud music, Yang Guang had to amplify his volume. The bartender was mixing drinks, and when he heard this, he froze. He looked up and sized him up. ¡°Who are you? How dare you address my boss like that?!¡± ¡°How should I address him?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Call him Brother Ming. Fortunately, he isn¡¯t here. Otherwise, just from that sentence, your teeth would have been knocked out!¡± The bartender sneered and asked, ¡°Why are you looking for Brother Ming?¡± Chapter 101 - Today, I Am the Main Character Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Under the scrutiny of the other party, Yang Guang chuckled. ¡°I am from the village and Brother Ming is my nephew. Why don¡¯t you help me tell Brother Ming that his uncle is here and wants to meet him!¡± ¡°¡­¡± The waiter was stunned. He was really intimidated by Yang Guang when he kept saying that he wanted to meet his nephew Brother Ming. His expression changed and he put away his cold attitude. The waiter looked at Yang Guang and asked, ¡°Are you really Brother Ming¡¯s uncle?¡± ¡°Of course! Even though there¡¯s a difference in our ages, but it can¡¯t be helped. My seniority in the family is high!¡± Yang Guang said seriously. ¡°Then come with me. Brother Ming is upstairs!¡± The waiter probably saw that Yang Guang was not old, so he did not think too much about it. He turned around, left the bar counter and walked towards the stairwell. Yang Guang chuckled and grabbed Mu Xiaowan¡¯s hand as they followed the waiter. At this moment, Mu Xiaowan whispered into his ear, ¡°You¡¯re really bad, pretending to be someone¡¯s uncle. It¡¯ll be a wonder if we don¡¯t end up in a fight later!¡± ¡°Big deal, I¡¯ll just treat you to a meal if that happens!¡± Yang Guang smiled and walked up the stairs. The second floor was much quieter than the first floor. It seemed that the soundproofing measures were very good. They couldn¡¯t hear the noise downstairs when they came up. There were all private rooms here. Some of the rooms were flashing with lights. It seemed that someone was spending money. Yang Guang was not interested in what those people were doing. He followed the waiter as they walked deeper in and soon came to the end of the corridor. He saw a room with a half-closed door. The lights in the room were very bright. Through the crack of the door, he could see that it was a large office. Although the door was open, the waiter still knocked on the door obediently. ¡°Brother Ming.¡± ¡°What¡¯s the matter? Come in!¡± A man¡¯s deep voice came from the room. The waiter pushed the door open and stood at the door. ¡°Brother Ming, your relative from the village is here. He says he is your uncle!¡± ¡°Eh?¡± Yang Ziming, who was in the room, was stunned. He raised his head in shock. ¡°What village? I¡¯m from the provincial capital. When did I live in a village?¡± ¡°Ah?¡± The waiter was stunned. He turned around and looked at Yang Guang. Yang Guang smiled and pushed him aside. ¡°Make way. You¡¯re not needed here!¡± He walked into the office and saw a 40-year-old middle-aged man sitting on the sofa. There was no one else in the room. Yang Guang was a little surprised, but he immediately asked, ¡°Are you Yang Ziming?¡± ¡°Who are you?¡± Yang Ziming looked a little suspiciously at the young man and woman who came in. The man was energetic and young, and the woman was very beautiful and full of youthful vigour. But in his mind, there was no memory of this man and woman, so he was a little confused for a moment. ¡°My name is Yang Guang. Can you remember me now?¡± ¡°You are the village doctor!¡± Yang Ziming suddenly remembered and stood up! ¡°Don¡¯t be so excited!¡± Yang Guang smiled and walked to the sofa. He sat down directly. ¡°Didn¡¯t I say before that I would come to the city to look for you? I happened to pass by today, so I came up to see you!¡± Yang Ziming: ¡°¡­¡± While he was in a state of uncertainty, he saw that the waiter at the door was still standing there stupidly. He immediately gave the other party a look. This time, the waiter wasn¡¯t stupid. He immediately understood what the boss meant and quickly turned around to leave. Yang Ziming looked at Yang Guang and laughed dryly. ¡°As expected, a hero comes from a young man. Yang Guang, you are very courageous!¡± ¡°Is that so?¡± Yang Guang looked at him. ¡°I wouldn¡¯t dare to say that I am courageous. Since you sent people to Qingshan Village to look for me, it would be impolite not to reciprocate. So of course I have to pay you a visit!¡± ¡°Is it as simple as a return visit?¡± Knowing that his subordinate had gone to call for people, Yang Ziming regained his composure. He leaned against the sofa and asked slowly. ¡°That¡¯s definitely not it.¡± Yang Guang smiled and looked into his eyes. ¡°Since you¡¯re already here, you naturally have to clarify things. Boss Yang, I don¡¯t know you. Who asked you to send people to look for trouble with me?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t be anxious about this matter. I¡¯ll tell you soon!¡± Yang Ziming smiled and tried to delay the time. Of course, Yang Guang knew what he was thinking and didn¡¯t take it seriously at all. He nodded and said, ¡°Alright, it¡¯s okay to wait for you to call your men over. Anyway, the night is still young. Let¡¯s talk slowly!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Yang Ziming narrowed his eyes and looked at Yang Guang seriously. He didn¡¯t expect this young man to be so calm even after seeing through his thoughts! He was indeed not an ordinary person! It was said that even Tiger had suffered a loss at his hands last time. Looking at it now, it seems that this kid really has some skills! Yang Ziming thought for a moment and smiled slightly. ¡°I¡¯m a businessman. I pay attention to harmony to make money. I don¡¯t like fighting!¡± ¡°I don¡¯t like it either, but there are always people who like to send themselves to me for a beating. What do you think I should do?¡± Yang Guang also leaned on the sofa and crossed his legs. Yang Ziming: ¡°¡­¡± In his opinion, this was a little too arrogant! On the surface, he was calm, but in his heart, he was thinking, ¡°Yang Guang ah, Yang Guang, you are a little too bold. Do you really think that anyone can just come in here? This is not Qingshan Village!¡± At this time, there was a flurry of footsteps in the corridor outside, and then seven or eight strange-shaped men rushed in! The so-called strange shapes were mainly because these people were dressed in all kinds of clothes. Some of them were bald, some wore tank tops that revealed tattoos on their arms, and some had dyed red and green hair. Seeing these people, Yang Ziming smiled and said to Yang Guang, ¡°I know that your skills are not bad. Last time, you could even crack Tiger¡¯s wrist, but you still underestimate me!¡± ¡°Is that so? There are still experts among the commoners under you?¡± Yang Guang looked back and asked with a smile. ¡°Kid, who are you calling a commoner? Today, I will let you experience the power of Brother Python!¡± The man with flowery arms in the crowd shouted and jumped out. ¡°Wow, what a domineering name!¡± Yang Guang looked at him. Seeing that the other party¡¯s eyes were superb and his arms full of muscles, he knew that he was a martial artist. Hence, he slowly stood up. ¡°Looks like I have to fight!¡± After saying that, he looked at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°This meal is definitely on me!¡± ¡°Of course!¡± Mu Xiaowan made a face at him and also stood up. ¡°Little girl, it¡¯s none of your business here. Don¡¯t meddle blindly. Otherwise, if you fight, you might be taken advantage of by us!¡± The bald man in the crowd chuckled. Mu Xiaowan didn¡¯t get angry when she heard that. Instead, she hooked her finger at him and said, ¡°Come, you come here. Let¡¯s see how you take advantage of me!¡± ¡°Hey, this girl is strong!¡± When the bald man heard that, he immediately rushed over! Before he got close, Mu Xiaowan leaped up. When she was in midair, a long leg swept over! With a muffled bang, her kick hit the bald man¡¯s right cheek! Yang Guang was speechless when he saw it. He turned to look at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°You can¡¯t steal the limelight like this.. I¡¯m the main character today!¡± Chapter 102 - What Are You Doing? Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Just as he was speaking, Yang Guang felt an unfriendly presence behind him ¨C that Brother Python had actually launched a sneak attack on him! Hence, he lowered his head and dodged the attack. Following that, he turned around and launched a kick! Brother Python¡¯s punch had yet to be delivered. Seeing that Yang Guang is about to kick him, he immediately made a 360-degree turn and dodged! ¡°Your Kung Fu is not bad!¡± Brother Python raised his eyebrows and said with a smile. ¡°It¡¯s just a little bit stronger than some shameless people who engage in sneak attacks!¡± Yang Guang said coldly and then raised his fist. ¡°Watch out for my fist!¡± ¡°Hu!¡± The biting wind of the punch went straight for Brother Python¡¯s chest! ¡°Not good!¡± Brother Python shouted and dodged sideways! But unexpectedly, Yang Guang¡¯s move was just a feint. The real attack came from his left fist! ¡°Bang!¡± Yang Guang¡¯s left fist hit his arm! ¡°Ah!¡± After taking the punch, Brother Python expression changed and he immediately covered his arm. His bones were not broken, but the huge force instantly dislocated his bones! This time, Brother Python lost his fighting strength. He was in so much pain that he bared his teeth. But he still glared at Yang Guang, extremely unpleased! ¡°If you lose, then scram to the side. The rest of you, attack together!¡± Relying on his own strength, Yang Guang said loudly to the remaining few people. ¡°If you want to die, then I¡¯ll grant you your wish!¡± Those few people looked at each other and raised their fists to pounce on him! The result was obvious. In the blink of an eye, they were knocked down by Yang Guang. Mu Xiaowan had only knocked down a bald man. It wasn¡¯t her turn to attack the rest. Seeing the people on the ground lying there moaning in pain, Yang Guang looked back at Yang Ziming. ¡°Is there anyone else?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t go too far, you bully!¡± Yang Ziming¡¯s face was livid, and his expression was very ugly. ¡°How did I bully you? It was clearly your men who took the initiative to provoke me. It was like they were asking to be beaten up!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and walked towards him. ¡°Do you want to try my sandbag-sized fist?¡± ¡°No!¡± Yang Ziming was so scared that he took two steps back. ¡°Don¡¯t come over, or I¡¯ll call the police!¡± ¡°Ugh¡­¡± Yang Guang was speechless. Then, he couldn¡¯t help but laugh. ¡°So, Boss Yang has such a style. If you can beat the enemy, let your men beat him. If you can¡¯t beat the enemy, then you ask the police to interfere?¡± ¡°¡­¡± Yang Ziming¡¯s old face turned red. He knew that he was in the wrong, so he quickly explained, ¡°I said that I¡¯m a businessman and don¡¯t like to fight. If you want to hurt me, I can only call the police!¡± ¡°Then you can call the police. Before the police come, I will definitely beat you until your mother doesn¡¯t recognize you!¡± Yang Guang quickly stepped forward and grabbed Yang Ziming¡¯s collar. ¡°Don¡¯t, don¡¯t do it. I¡¯ll speak!¡± Before he was punched, Yang Ziming directly admitted defeat. ¡°If you had spoken up earlier, I wouldn¡¯t have wasted my energy!¡± Yang Guang let go of his hand with a look of disdain. Then he sat down on the sofa. ¡°Tell me, who gave you the order!¡± ¡°It¡¯s Meng Li. You should know him!¡± Yang Ziming said. ¡°It¡¯s really him!¡± Yang Guang smiled and asked, ¡°What did that kid tell you? Why did he ask you to do it?¡± ¡°It¡¯s nothing. He just hoped that I could arrange for someone to teach you a lesson, so he can vent his anger.¡± Yang Ziming said with his head lowered. He thought that his few good fighters would be able to defeat Yang Guang by relying on their numbers. In the end, so many people could not even match up to him. His heart turned cold. Even though he had the upper hand, he still lost. He naturally couldn¡¯t afford to be arrogant and could only admit defeat. After hearing Yang Ziming¡¯s obedient explanation, Yang Guang shook his head helplessly and then stood up. ¡°I only came for such a small matter. It was originally very simple, but you have to make it complicated!¡± He turned his head to look at the people lying on the ground. He looked up at Yang Ziming. ¡°I hurt your people. Do you want me to give you some medical fees?¡± ¡°No, no need. It¡¯s okay!¡± Yang Ziming said quickly. ¡°Okay, then I won¡¯t bother you. I¡¯ll come and play with you another day!¡± Yang Guang said and turned to leave. Yang Ziming was a little confused. He asked in surprise, ¡°Why do you still want to look for me?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t be nervous. I¡¯ll really come to play with you next time. Don¡¯t forget to give me a 30% or 40% discount.¡± Yang Guang smiled, took Mu Xiaowan¡¯s hand, and walked out of the office arrogantly. When he went out to the first floor, he happened to see two policemen walking in from the door. Yang Guang frowned and said, ¡°Yang doesn¡¯t care about martial ethics!¡± While he was in a daze, Mu Xiaowan pulled him. Then, Yang Guang was pulled to the opposite direction of the door. After that, she went around to the back and found a back door. ¡°Eh, how did you know there was a back door?¡± Yang Guang was a little puzzled and asked curiously. ¡°Even if you¡¯ve never been in this situation before, surely you would have heard about it?¡± Mu Xiaowan turned around and rolled her eyes at him. ¡°This kind of place has all kinds of people mixed together. There surely has to be a back door!¡± ¡°You¡¯re really smart!¡± Yang Guang smiled and followed her out of the door. The two of them arrived at a dark alley. When they came out, they saw a man and woman hugging each other in the alley. They were making out with each other. The two of them were instantly embarrassed! The man and woman were in their own worlds and did not care about anyone near them. They were still kissing each other. Yang Guang was speechless as he watched. At this moment, his foot hurt. Mu Xiaowan stepped on him. ¡°Haven¡¯t you seen enough?¡± ¡°Hehe, it¡¯s a free blockbuster. Who wouldn¡¯t want to watch it?¡± Yang Guang chuckled, but he was immediately dragged away by Mu Xiaowan. When he returned to the street and saw that her face was a little red, Yang Guang asked curiously, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you?¡± ¡°Nothing, it¡¯s hot!¡± Mu Xiaowan then said, ¡°It¡¯s late. Let me send you back to the hotel!¡± ¡°What about you?¡± Yang Guang asked. Mu Xiaowan was stunned, and then said, ¡°Of course I¡¯ll find a taxi later!¡± ¡°Oh, I thought you would go upstairs with me!¡± Yang Guang smiled evilly. ¡°Pfft, you wish!¡± Mu Xiaowan looked at him, then let go of his hand and left. Yang Guang quickly followed her and said with a shy smile, ¡°What¡¯s the big deal? Didn¡¯t we live together in the past?¡± ¡°That¡¯s because everyone was there. Do you think I¡¯ll live alone with you? Stop dreaming!¡± Mu Xiaowan said without turning her head. ¡°What? Are you afraid?¡± Yang Guang continued to ask. Mu Xiaowan stopped and looked back at him. ¡°You big pervert, of course I¡¯m afraid!¡± Yang Guang argued, ¡°Is it my fault? Who asked you to be so beautiful!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes and turned around to leave. Yang Guang smiled and caught up with her. He grabbed her hand without saying anything. Mu Xiaowan struggled for a while, but she couldn¡¯t break free, so she gave up. The two of them returned hand in hand and soon arrived at the hotel they had stayed in before. They were almost at the entrance. Yang Guang saw a dark place next to them, so he pulled Mu Xiaowan over. ¡°What are you doing?¡± Mu Xiaowan only had time to ask those four words before her lips was covered by his mouth! Chapter 103 - Depression Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Mu Xiaowan¡¯s large eyes filled with shock, and she completely forgot to struggle. After a moment, her body gradually became limp, and then she closed her eyes. After kissing passionately for a moment, Yang Guang, who had no experience, reached his hand under her waistcoat! Feeling a hot large hand, Mu Xiaowan was startled, and then she fiercely struggled! Seeing that she was a little anxious, Yang Guang finally let go of her lips. Mu Xiaowan panted for a moment and lowered her head, not daring to look into his eyes. Then, she said in a low voice, ¡°Let go of me, I¡¯m going home!¡± Seeing her like this, Yang Guang panicked. ¡°Are you angry?¡± ¡°No, I want to go home!¡± Mu Xiaowan no longer had the stance of a violent woman. She lowered her head like a little sheep. Yang Guang thought that she was really angry and quickly explained, ¡°It¡¯s all my fault. I saw those two people in the alley just now and couldn¡¯t help myself.¡± ¡°I¡¯m not angry, it¡¯s that it¡¯s getting really late. I should go home!¡± Mu Xiaowan raised her head and said with sparkling eyes. Seeing her expression, Yang Guang heaved a sigh of relief. The passionate kiss just now had naturally brought their relationship closer, and the feelings between them had also changed. In Yang Guang¡¯s opinion, this could be considered a kiss to seal their love. Therefore, just when their love was at its peak, he could not help but ask in a low voice, ¡°Sister, shall I send you home?¡± ¡°Now you know to call me sister? Why didn¡¯t you say that when you were teasing me just now?¡± Mu Xiaowan returned to her previous stance and rolled her eyes at him in annoyance before continuing, ¡°You don¡¯t need to send me home. I can go home by myself!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Seeing that she had broken free from his grip and was heading straight for the hotel entrance, Yang Guang had no choice but to chase after her. ¡°Then give me a call when you get home.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t lose my way!¡± Mu Xiaowan said this and got into the taxi that was waiting for passengers at the entrance. Soon, the car left the hotel and disappeared at the corner of the street far away. Yang Guang suddenly felt empty in his heart, as if something had been taken away from him! He entered the hotel lobby dejectedly, then opened a standard room and went upstairs with disappointment. When he reached the room, Yang Guang sat at the head of the bed, and it took him quite a while to recover. He looked at the time and saw that half an hour had passed. He was about to ask Mu Xiaowan if she was home when he received a text message on his phone. He opened it and saw that the text message was from Mu Xiaowan. The text was very long, and she had written a long paragraph. To Yang Guang¡¯s surprise, Mu Xiaowan told him that what the two of them had just done was wrong. It was impossible for her to be Yang Guang¡¯s girlfriend! At the same time, Mu Xiaowan also told him that she was going out for a while and would not be back for a short period of time! At the end of the message, she told Yang Guang very seriously that Qi Yingxue¡¯s personality was more reserved, but in reality, she was the most suitable person for him. She also encouraged Yang Guang to pursue her more! After reading the text message, Yang Guang was dumbfounded. His entire mind was blank. After being blank for a long time, he finally remembered to call Mu Xiaowan, but in the end, he found that her phone was turned off! ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± It was clearly a natural outcome, but unexpectedly, it was this result! At the same time, Yang Guang also felt very speechless. Xu Ling had suggested that he look for Mu Xiaowan and Qi Yingxue, and Mu Xiaowan suggested that he go after Qi Yingxue! Why are they all pushing me around? Are they all so modest? ¡°Is this my luck or my misfortune when it comes to women?¡± Yang Guang mumbled and dialled Mu Xiaowan¡¯s number again. In the end, her phone was still turned off. It seemed that this girl would definitely not turn her phone on tonight. Seeing that it was late, Yang Guang also could not disturb Qi Yingxue, so he could only go to sleep! In the end, of course, he could not fall asleep. That night, he tossed and turned, waking up and having countless dreams about Mu Xiaowan. Sometimes, he dreamed that she came to look for him and agreed to be his girlfriend with a smile! Sometimes, he dreamed that she left and never appeared again. Under such complicated emotions, Yang Guang almost broke down in his dreams! The next morning, in a daze, the phone rang, waking him up from his sleep. Seeing that it was Qi Yingxue calling, Yang Guang picked up the call. ¡°Sis, are you looking for me?¡± Hearing the listless voice, Qi Yingxue smiled and said, ¡°Haven¡¯t you woken up yet? The sun is already shining on your butt!¡± ¡°Oh, I had insomnia last night,¡± said Yang Guang. Qi Yingxue was stunned. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°Sis, Xiaowan said that she¡¯ll be going out for a while and won¡¯t be back for a period of time. Do you know what she¡¯s going to do?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°About that, she did mention that she might be going to the provincial capital for a few days because of family matters. Is that why you couldn¡¯t sleep?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. ¡°Yeah, she sent me a text message, but her phone was turned off. She¡¯s not picking up my calls!¡± Yang Guang said with an aggrieved expression. ¡°¡­¡± This time, Qi Yingxue sensed that something was wrong. After a moment of silence, she asked, ¡°Where are you? I¡¯m going to find you!¡± Yang Guang told her his room number. After hanging up the phone, he tried to call Mu Xiaowan¡¯s number, but it was still turned off! This time, he was really depressed. He pulled open the curtains to look at the bright sunlight outside, but his heart was filled with gloom. He really did not feel good! When Qi Yingxue rushed to the hotel and knocked on the door, she immediately frowned! Yang Guang reeked of alcohol all over his body, and his face was as red as a monkey¡¯s butt! With a cry of surprise, she hurriedly entered the room and asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you? Why are you drinking so early in the morning?¡± ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that drinking can relieve my worries? I want to try it.¡± Yang Guang chuckled and continued, ¡°Sis, don¡¯t say anything yet. I¡¯m really not feeling so bad now!¡± ¡°How much did you drink?¡± Qi Yingxue¡¯s face was filled with heartache. She looked at the two empty white wine bottles on the ground and was instantly dumbfounded. Two kilograms of white wine. Was this kid really that good at drinking? ¡°Sis, I didn¡¯t drink too much. I¡¯m just feeling depressed. Don¡¯t worry!¡± Yang Guang said this and sat on the head of the bed. He deliberately put on a serious look. Qi Yingxue was both angry and amused. She shook her head helplessly and asked, ¡°Why? Because Xiaowan didn¡¯t pick up your call?¡± ¡°Yes, she¡¯s avoiding me. I know she likes me, but at the critical moment, this girl actually chickened out and wanted to run away!¡± Yang Guang said loudly. As he said this, he took out his phone, squinted his eyes, and found the text message to show to Qi Yingxue. She took the phone and read the content. Only then did Qi Yingxue understand. After sighing, she said to Yang Guang, ¡°Don¡¯t be depressed. Xiaowan has her difficulties!¡± ¡°You can be so unreasonable just because you have difficulties?¡± Yang Guang had a depressed look on his face. He stretched out his hand and patted the bed. ¡°If you have difficulties, you can just leave!¡± Qi Yingxue was speechless. She got up and pulled him to stand up. ¡°Alright, don¡¯t be depressed. Hurry up and wash your face to sober up.. I¡¯ll tell you what happened when you sober up!¡± Chapter 104 - The Two Womens Private Conversation Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was forcefully pulled up. Qi Yingxue¡¯s constitution had changed, and her strength was quite high. If it was in the past, she would not be able to pull up a living person who weighed more than a hundred kilograms. However, Yang Guang had drunk too much alcohol, so he was actually forcefully holding on. Therefore, after he stood up, his legs went soft, and he directly fell back! Caught off guard, Qi Yingxue was instead pulled down by him, and she fell onto Yang Guang¡¯s body! Before she could react, Yang Guang hugged her waist. ¡°Sis, do you like me?¡± ¡°You brat!¡± Qi Yingxue was embarrassed and anxious. This position was too ambiguous, so her face was flushed red as she struggled. At the same time, she said, ¡°Didn¡¯t I already say that my feelings for you are like that of a sister to her brother? Xiaowan is the most suitable for you!¡± ¡°Then why did she say that you like me?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s eyes were hazy as he mumbled and asked. Qi Yingxue also saw the contents of the text message. She secretly hated Mu Xiaowan for interfering. She hurriedly said, ¡°That¡¯s just her talking nonsense. I¡¯m a few years older than you, so I can only be your elder sister!¡± ¡°Okay, all of you!¡± Yang Guang was very angry when he heard that. He waved his hand and said, ¡°I finally understand. All of you may seem to be very good to me. But the truth is, all of you want to push me into the arms of others. In fact, no one likes me!¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Qi Yingxue was both angry and amused. Looking at the dazed Yang Guang, she did not know what to say. Yang Guang was tipsy at this time. He was still mumbling something, but she could no longer hear it clearly. When he turned around, Qi Yingxue found that he was actually asleep. She was instantly even more speechless! Feeling that the room was a little cold, she pulled a blanket over Yang Guang and covered him. She quietly looked at his face for a while. A moment later, she woke up from her daze. Qi Yingxue quickly turned around and went out to the corridor outside. She took out her phone and called Mu Xiaowan. She found that her phone was indeed switched off, so she dialled another number. This time, the call went through smoothly. Then, Mu Xiaowan¡¯s nasal voice came from the receiver. ¡°Sis, are you looking for me?¡± ¡°Why? Have you caught a cold?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. ¡°No, it¡¯s just that my nose is a little blocked,¡± Mu Xiaowan said. Qi Yingxue replied with an ¡°Oh¡± and then asked, ¡°What happened between you and Yang Guang?¡± ¡°Nothing happened. What did he say to you?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked back. ¡°Don¡¯t pretend. I know everything. He¡¯s in the hotel now. He drank two bottles of white wine in the morning the moment he woke up. Now he¡¯s passed out!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°¡­¡± Mu Xiaowan obviously didn¡¯t expect such an outcome. She immediately fell silent! ¡°Wan¡¯er, let¡¯s find a place to sit. How about the hotel¡¯s coffee shop?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. ¡°Okay, okay.¡± Mu Xiaowan hesitated for a moment, but she still agreed. She went back to her room to check on Yang Guang¡¯s condition. Seeing that he was sleeping very soundly, Qi Yingxue took the room card and went downstairs. She went to the hotel¡¯s coffee shop and sat there for ten minutes. A girl in a black dress and sunglasses rushed over. Seeing Mu Xiaowan¡¯s outfit, Qi Yingxue was speechless. ¡°What are you up to this time!¡± ¡°I don¡¯t look good!¡± Mu Xiaowan mumbled and took off her sunglasses. Qi Yingxue took a look and found that she really didn¡¯t look good. The girl¡¯s eyes were red and swollen like peaches! Her heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly asked, ¡°Is this the result of crying for the whole night?¡± ¡°Yes¡­¡± Mu Xiaowan lowered her head and said in a thick nasal voice, ¡°Sister, don¡¯t tell others. It¡¯s so embarrassing!¡± ¡°What¡¯s so embarrassing? I¡¯m just curious. You were clearly fine, but what happened to you?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. ¡°Sis, it¡¯s natural if others don¡¯t know, but you don¡¯t know?¡± Mu Xiaowan took a deep breath and said helplessly, ¡°My father has met with financial difficulties, and now the guy whom I¡¯m supposed to get married to is urging for the engagement to happen. What can I do?¡± ¡°Because of this?¡± Qi Yingxue was stunned. She had long known that Mu Xiaowan had an arranged marriage, but Mu Xiaowan didn¡¯t care about this matter in the past, so she didn¡¯t take it seriously. Now that she heard her words, Qi Yingxue finally understood that she had rejected Yang Guang because of this matter! After understanding it, Qi Yingxue asked doubtfully, ¡°Don¡¯t tell me you want to marry that guy again?¡± ¡°Is there any other way? The problem on my father¡¯s side is too big. The Sun family has promised that as long as I am engaged to Sun Zihao, they can use the money to repay the bank loan first¡­¡± Mu Xiaowan lowered her head and said. Qi Yingxue: ¡°¡­¡± It wasn¡¯t that she had never heard of such a thing, but when she heard that her close friend was also going down this path, using her lifetime of happiness to exchange for her father¡¯s business, she was still speechless. She had originally wanted to persuade this girl to change her mind, but now that she heard it, Qi Yingxue was suddenly at a loss. She didn¡¯t know what to say. This was a problem, and there was a solution to the problem. It was just that the solution was not satisfactory! There were other ways to solve the problem, but after all, it was tens of millions of dollars. She did not have the ability to help even if she wanted to! After a moment of silence, the waiter brought over coffee. After he left, Qi Yingxue sighed and said, ¡°Yang Guang is upstairs, he¡¯s so sad that he can¡¯t take it anymore. And now you have gotten yourself into this state again. As your sister, I really feel sorry for you, but I don¡¯t know what to do.¡± Mu Xiaowan didn¡¯t say anything. She was silent for a moment, and then suddenly said faintly, ¡°Even if I¡¯m not around, he still has you. He¡¯ll soon forget about me!¡± ¡°You lass, you¡¯re doing it again. Don¡¯t randomly matchmake, okay!¡± Qi Yingxue was speechless and glared at her. Mu Xiaowan smiled bitterly. ¡°Sister, don¡¯t pretend anymore. We grew up together. I can tell who you like and who you don¡¯t like with just a glance!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Qi Yingxue was instantly speechless. But then, she sighed and said with a bitter smile, ¡°Alright, I¡¯ve been seen through by you. But so what? You have your difficulties, and so do I!¡± ¡°That¡¯s nonsense. That old priest is talking nonsense. Only your family believes it. Who else would believe it?¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes and said with disdain. Qi Yingxue smiled bitterly. ¡°Do you not believe it?¡± As she spoke, she saw that there was no one around. She secretly pulled down her collar and revealed her cleavage. ¡°Do you see it?¡± ¡°Ah? What¡¯s this?¡± Mu Xiaowan widened her eyes and was stunned! Near Qi Yingxue¡¯s cleavage, there was a dark red line on her skin. ¡°This is the curse. According to the priest, I should only have three years left.¡± Qi Yingxue sighed slightly. ¡°When this line reaches my neck, it will be the day I die!¡± ¡°How could this be!¡± Mu Xiaowan¡¯s face was filled with disbelief. She had completely forgotten about the depression in her heart. Then, she suddenly reacted. ¡°Yang Guang knows how to treat illnesses.. Why don¡¯t you let him take a look?¡± Chapter 105 - The Dark Clouds Disperse Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Qi Yingxue shook her head. ¡°This is a curse, not a disease. He can¡¯t treat it!¡± Mu Xiaowan was excited. ¡°How would we know if we don¡¯t try? What if that kid has a way? Are you just going to accept your fate and not fight for it?¡± ¡°Who says I don¡¯t want to fight for it? But ever since I was ten years old, my family has tried many times. I really can¡¯t undo this curse!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°¡­¡± Mu Xiaowan looked at her steadily. Her heart was suddenly filled with complicated emotions. Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something, so she said, ¡°Sister, if you are destined and can¡¯t undo the curse, then why are you still afraid of this and that?¡± ¡°Ah? What do you mean?¡± Qi Yingxue didn¡¯t understand and asked in a daze. ¡°What I mean is, since you don¡¯t have much time left in your life, why don¡¯t you live happily? If you like Yang Guang, just say it!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°This¡­¡± Qi Yingxue was a little speechless by this theory. She raised her head and looked at her. ¡°I am happy, but what about after I die? Won¡¯t he be very sad?¡± ¡°Who cares? If it were me, I would definitely want to experience happy moments first!¡± Mu Xiaowan raised her chin and said. Qi Yingxue looked at her and suddenly pursed her lips into a smile. ¡°Okay, he is upstairs. Then you go upstairs and be happy. What are you doing, thinking of your problems at home!¡± ¡°Sis!¡± Mu Xiaowan¡¯s face instantly turned red. Then, she began to act coquettishly, ¡°Can you stop laughing at me? I¡¯m depressed!¡± ¡°I really envy you young people. You¡¯re so desperate for a confession!¡± Qi Yingxue said with a smile. ¡°Uh¡­¡± Mu Xiaowan was stunned by her words. Then, she also felt that what happened last night was a little ridiculous, so she burst into laughter. That was indeed the case. She just wanted to confirm the relationship between the couple. It was not a life-and-death parting, so why did it have to be like this? The one upstairs was unconscious while the one downstairs was crying until her eyes were red and swollen. Now that she thought about it, it was really a little too much of a fuss. After chatting for a while, Mu Xiaowan¡¯s mood had recovered a lot. She did not have so many psychological burdens anymore, but at the same time, there was one more thing in her heart, and that was the curse on Qi Yingxue! So she thought to herself that when she sees Yang Guang later, she must tell him about this matter and let him think of a solution! After drinking coffee, Qi Yingxue planned to take her upstairs, but Mu Xiaowan immediately shook her head desperately. She felt that her appearance was too ugly and did not want Yang Guang to see her. So she hurriedly drove away again. For some reason, after comforting Mu Xiaowan, Qi Yingxue¡¯s heart felt a little empty. Then, she returned upstairs alone in a depressed mood. After entering the door, the room was still filled with the strong smell of alcohol. Yang Guang lay on the bed and slept soundly. He did not even move. Qi Yingxue opened the window to ventilate. Then, she sat at the head of the bed and stared at him for a while. The girl¡¯s face gradually turned red. No one knew what she was thinking. However, after looking at him for a while, Qi Yingxue still stood up and said softly, ¡°Stinky brat, you get your sleep first. I can¡¯t stay here to watch you all the time. We¡¯ll talk about it when you wake up!¡± After saying that, she turned around and left, returning to the hotel to get busy with work. When Yang Guang woke up, it was already past two in the afternoon. He rubbed his bird-nest-like hair and looked at the time. His entire being was a little dazed. He sat on the bed and thought for a while before recalling what had happened before. He vaguely remembered that Qi Yingxue seemed to have come over, so he picked up the phone to call her. After picking up the call, Yang Guang asked, ¡°Sis, did you come to the hotel this morning?¡± ¡°Have you finally woken up? Do you feel uncomfortable?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. ¡°I¡¯m fine, but my head is a little heavy.¡± Yang Guang smiled bitterly and continued, ¡°So you really came. I thought I was dreaming!¡± ¡°It¡¯s good that you¡¯re awake. Are you still going home today? Do you want me to fetch you?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. ¡°No need. I¡¯ll find a taxi and go back myself. I won¡¯t trouble you, sis,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°I¡¯ll send you back. Go downstairs now. I¡¯ll drive over right away!¡± Qi Yingxue said one sentence and didn¡¯t give Yang Guang a chance to refuse. She directly hung up the phone. Yang Guang had no choice but to quickly pack up and then go downstairs to settle the hotel fees. When he reached outside, Qi Yingxue¡¯s car had indeed arrived. After getting in the car, the two of them looked at each other. Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°Sis, I didn¡¯t say anything to you this morning, right?¡± ¡°No, you drank too much!¡± Qi Yingxue said this, then started the car and left the hotel. While walking on the road, she looked ahead and said, ¡°Of all things you can learn from Xiaowan, you learned to drown your sorrows with alcohol. You¡¯re not allowed to do this in the future!¡± ¡°Oh, okay, I¡¯ll remember it.¡± Yang Guang nodded. Only then did he think of Mu Xiaowan, and his heart ached. ¡°Did she really leave the county and never come back?¡± Qi Yingxue turned to look at him and chuckled. ¡°This girl usually looks smart, yet why is she so silly now? That girl is lying to you, do you not know her?¡± ¡°Really?¡± Yang Guang was overjoyed when he heard that. The gloominess in his heart was instantly swept away! ¡°Of course it¡¯s true. Just wait and see. Xiaowan and I will still go to your house in a few days if there¡¯s nothing else!¡± Qi Yingxue said with a smile. ¡°Okay!¡± Yang Guang was not a person who had a lot on his mind. When he heard this, he immediately grinned happily. When she saw him like this, Qi Yingxue could not help but purse her lips and smile. Her mood became very comfortable. When she returned to Qingshan village, it was already past three o¡¯clock in the afternoon. Qi Yingxue did not stay any longer and left after sitting for a while. When it was time for dinner, Xu Ling came back from outside. When she saw Yang Guang, she immediately asked, ¡°How was the trip to the county? Did you gain anything?¡± ¡°The matter is basically settled. I even met with the county head yesterday!¡± Yang Guang told her everything that had happened. Of course, he didn¡¯t say anything about Mu Xiaowan or Meng Li. The former was self-evident, while for the latter he didn¡¯t want Xu Ling to feel any psychological burden. This matter wasn¡¯t over yet, but Yang Guang didn¡¯t want her to know about how he dealt with Meng Li in the future. Hearing that the matter of the scenic spots was basically confirmed, Xu Ling immediately became happy. She said with a smile, ¡°When the scenic spot is established, the matter of Qingshan village getting rich will basically be settled!¡± ¡°Yes, right. If that¡¯s the case, Sister Ling, are you going to leave?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°I don¡¯t think so.¡± Xu Ling shook her head. ¡°My term of office is one year. I won¡¯t go back until my term of office expires.¡± ¡°What will you do after you go back?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°I¡¯m not sure. I¡¯ll have to wait for the organization¡¯s arrangements. I might work in the county or go to the provincial capital,¡± Xu Ling said. Hearing this, Wu Xiaolian quickly asked, ¡°Go to the provincial capital? That¡¯s too far. What if we miss you, what should we do then?¡± This was exactly what Yang Guang wanted to ask. He quickly glanced at Xu Ling, wanting to hear what she had to say.. Chapter 106 - Hu Suo Came to Look for Her Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xu Ling smiled and looked at her uncle and sister-in-law. ¡°Even if it¡¯s far away, I will often come back. After all, this place is just like my home.¡± ¡°Oh, then I¡¯m relieved!¡± Wu Xiaolian nodded and continued, ¡°Actually, it¡¯s best if you don¡¯t leave. Why don¡¯t you just stay in our village!¡± Xu Ling could obviously hear the hidden meaning in those words, so her face turned slightly red. ¡°I¡¯m afraid that¡¯s impossible. Even if I wanted to, the pressure from the family wouldn¡¯t allow it.¡± After staying for a period of time, Wu Xiaolian had already understood Xu Ling¡¯s family background. Her parents were all capable people. Her father was a government worker, and her mother was a university teacher. She definitely couldn¡¯t let her daughter stay in a village. Thinking of this, Wu Xiaolian sighed and then glanced at Yang Guang. Yang Guang had an innocent look on his face. He thought to himself, ¡°Why are you looking at me so resentfully? I don¡¯t have the power to decide whether she stays or goes!¡± After dinner, it was late, so everyone went back to their rooms to rest early. The next morning, during breakfast, Xu Ling said to Yang Guang, ¡°The greenhouse will be finished today. Do you want to go and take a look?¡± ¡°So fast?¡± Yang Guang quickly nodded, ¡°Then I should go and take a look. Those who don¡¯t know would think that you¡¯re the boss!¡± ¡°I¡¯m glad you know!¡± Xu Ling glanced at him and said lightly. After breakfast, Wu Xiaolian carried Yaya and everyone went to the south side of the village. The entire vegetable greenhouse had been completed. The keel and the greenhouse membrane had also been installed. They were now testing the curtain rolling machine. After it was done, it would be put into use. After entering the greenhouse, it was spacious and bright. The rows of vegetable beds were very flat. Yang Guang was very satisfied with it, so he said to Xu Ling very seriously, ¡°Sister, thank you!¡± ¡°Okay, don¡¯t be so polite. Just think about what you want to grow!¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°There¡¯s a lot I want to grow!¡± Yang Guang counted with his fingers. He had to plant some leafy vegetables and fruits. There was no need to worry about the growth speed and quality of the vegetables, but there had to be variety, and when the time came, he was going to monopolize the supply of vegetables in Qi Yingxue¡¯s restaurant! Just as the two of them were discussing, a group of people¡¯s voices came from outside. Then, they heard Sun Guoying¡¯s voice say, ¡°This Yang Guang, just wait for the loss. Last year, the neighbouring village also built a few greenhouses. In the end, when the vegetable seedlings just grew out, they froze to death. That person almost lost his pants!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right, that¡¯s right. Who wants to plant in this greenhouse? Then you have to know the technology, okay!¡± Another person echoed. Yang Guang was puzzled. Who was Sun Guoying talking to? He couldn¡¯t recognise the voices. So he turned around and walked out of the greenhouse. When he saw the backs of a few people, he couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°Hey, this is private territory. Who told you to come here!¡± Sun Guoying and the others didn¡¯t expect Yang Guang to be here. They were so shocked that a chill ran down their spines. Then, they turned around and saw him. ¡°Oh, Yang Guang, you¡¯re here. That¡¯s good. This is technician Tang from the county. I specially invited him to help the village with the planting of medicinal herbs!¡± Sun Guoying said loudly with a proud smile. ¡°Planting medicinal herbs?¡± Yang Guang and Xu Ling looked at each other and were a little confused at the same time. Sun Guoying nodded, ¡°That¡¯s right. Secretary Xu wants to bring the people of the village to wealth. As the village chief, I naturally can not fall behind. Therefore, I also thought of a project. I plan to plant more than ten Mu in my family and my brother¡¯s family first. If I really earn money, I will let everyone plant together!¡± ¡°Is that so? Then you are really kind-hearted, village chief. I never thought you were this good before!¡± Yang Guang said with a cold smile. The reason why he was unhappy was not because of Sun Guoying¡¯s attitude, but because when that person surnamed Tang saw Xu Ling, he could not take his eyes off her. He almost drooled! Seeing this scene, Yang Guang was naturally angry and very unhappy! Hence, he took a step in front of Xu Ling and stood in front of her. He stared straight at the person surnamed Tang. Only then did the person look away embarrassedly. Sun Guoying knew that Yang Guang was mocking him. Hence, he retorted, ¡°Stop making sarcastic remarks. Yang Guang, just you wait. Even if you succeed in growing vegetables in a few dilapidated greenhouses, you won¡¯t be able to recoup the cost in two to three years. Wait for me to grow the medicinal herbs and see who will earn money!¡± ¡°I can¡¯t be bothered to compete with you. Even if you plant ginseng in those few acres of land, you won¡¯t be able to sell it for much money. How can you compete with me?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s face was full of disdain as he rolled his eyes. When Tang Song heard that, he hurriedly said, ¡°You can¡¯t say that. The medicinal herbs we promote are of high yield and high price. The output value per Mu can reach more than 20,000 yuan!¡± ¡°Really? So high?¡± Yang Guang pretended to be surprised, then sneered and asked, ¡°Then your seeds must not be cheap, right? Do we still need to buy your technology?¡± ¡°Of course not. The instructions to use the technology is free, and the seeds are also very cheap. One Mu of land only costs 1,500 yuan!¡± Tang Song said. ¡°Oh, it¡¯s equivalent to the price of one Mu of corn. Isn¡¯t that expensive?¡± Yang Guang curled his lips and thought to himself, this is just a trick to buy seeds. It¡¯s definitely not reliable! ¡°1500 yuan for 20,000 yuan is expensive to you? You mean you won¡¯t even be able to settle this debt?¡± Tang Song was also a little unhappy and asked faintly. ¡°I can, but I¡¯m not as calculative as you guys. I¡¯m afraid that if the village chief buys your seeds, and when the medicinal herbs grow out, you guys will say that the growth isn¡¯t good, and that the quality isn¡¯t good enough. When the value is lowered, the village chief won¡¯t know who to cry to even if he wants to!¡± Yang Guang laughed. ¡°You!¡± Tang Song choked and almost rolled his eyes. The company really did have this trick up its sleeve. They would agree to buy the seeds well, but when it was time to harvest, they would indeed use all their abilities to lower the price! Just as he was at a loss for words, a police car drove over from the village across the river. Then, Hu Jian and a young policeman looked over and immediately walked over. Yang Guang¡¯s heart sank, and a bad premonition suddenly rose in his heart. Sure enough, Hu Jian came closer and looked at Yang Guang with a serious face. He asked, ¡°You really haven¡¯t seen those two people who were burned to death in the mountain fire?¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Yang Guang was stunned and then shook his head. ¡°I really haven¡¯t. What¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°We found out that the two people weren¡¯t burned to death. They were thrown into the fire after they died!¡± Hu Jian said seriously. Sun Guoying listened from the side. His pupils shook as he looked at Yang Guang. ¡°Oh boy, kid, so you¡¯re a murderer!¡± ¡°Shut your mouth before you speak!¡± Yang Guang glared at him and turned to look at Hu Jian. ¡°Mr. Hu, you don¡¯t suspect that I killed those two people, do you? Do you think I have the ability to do that?¡± ¡°Is that right? If you want to use evidence and testimony to speak, you¡¯d better come with us and cooperate with the investigation!¡± Hu Jian said. When Sun Guoying heard that, he was even more certain of his guess. So he narrowed his eyes and sneered, ¡°Yang Guang, ah, Yang Guang, you really have guts.. Now you¡¯re done for!¡± Chapter 107 - Fine Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xu Ling bit her lip, looked at Hu Jian, and asked, ¡°Mr. Hu, why are you so sure that Yang Guang killed those two people? I can testify for him!¡± Hu Jian looked at Xu Ling and then turned to look at Yang Guang. His originally stern face suddenly opened up, revealing a smile. ¡°Don¡¯t be nervous, I was joking just now!¡± Yang Guang: ¡°¡­¡± Xu Ling: ¡°¡­¡± Sun Guoying¡¯s cold smile was still hanging on his face. Now that he heard Hu Jian¡¯s words, he suddenly froze. ¡°Mr. Hu, a joke isn¡¯t meant to be like this. I thought you were really going to bring me to the institute for interrogation!¡± Yang Guang said helplessly. ¡°Alright, don¡¯t be nervous. It¡¯s fine even if you killed her!¡± Hu Jian patted his shoulder. ¡°Let¡¯s go, I have something else to tell you. Let¡¯s talk at home!¡± ¡°Okay.¡± When Yang Guang heard that there was something else, he nodded and turned to leave the greenhouse. However, after taking two steps, he turned to Sun Guoying and said, ¡°Right, stay away from my greenhouse. Mr. Hu is here. If you break my equipment, I won¡¯t be done with you!¡± Sun Guoying: ¡°¡­¡± After crossing the river and returning home, they sat down in the shade of the courtyard. Hu Jian said to Yang Guang, ¡°The two corpses in the mountain have been identified by DNA testing. It has been confirmed that they are the highest-ranked people on the wanted list of the Ministry of Public Security. The bounty on those two guys reached 500,000 yuan!¡± ¡°That high?¡± Yang Guang was stunned when he heard that. Then he asked, ¡°How vicious are the perpetrators? That these bad guys could die in the mountain?¡± ¡°You, stop pretending!¡± Hu Jian smiled and said, ¡°What I said was true. But this time, I¡¯m not here to investigate whether you killed them or not. Even if you did, it must have been self-defence. There¡¯s no problem at all. No one will pursue it!¡± ¡°Uh, what are you trying to say, Mr. Hu?¡± Yang Guang was a little confused. He swallowed his saliva, but he still did not want to admit it. Hu Jian smiled. ¡°These two guys are not only grave robbers but also members of an underground organization. Our higher-ups¡¯ security department has been watching them for a long time, so they want me to ask you; if you really saw them in the mountains, did you pick up their belongings or something?¡± ¡°This¡­¡± Yang Guang hesitated. He had indeed found something, but if he admitted it, wouldn¡¯t it be the same as exposing all his lies and admitting that he had killed them? Just when he was at a loss for words, Xu Ling took a deep breath and said to Hu Jian, ¡°Mr. Hu, what you said just now is true, right? You won¡¯t hold him accountable?¡± ¡°It¡¯s too late to make a meritorious contribution. What¡¯s the point of holding him accountable?¡± Hu Jian laughed. Hearing what he said, Yang Guang sighed. ¡°Alright, I did kill them!¡± ¡°I told you. Those two are martial artists. Their skills are not bad. How could they be burned to death so easily?¡± Hu Jian laughed and asked, ¡°Then did you find anything?¡± ¡°Yes, this!¡± Yang Guang reached out and took out a shiny dark red-bronze medal from his pocket. ¡°This is it.¡± Hu Jian¡¯s eyes lit up when he saw this. He held it in his hand and looked at it. Then, he looked up and said, ¡°Great, this is it!¡± ¡°What is this?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°A token!¡± Hu Jian was very happy. He smiled so much that his eyes turned into crescent moons. He reached out and patted Yang Guang¡¯s shoulder. ¡°Kid, you¡¯ve done a meritorious deed. Wait for the award!¡± After saying that, he stood up and was about to leave. Taking a step forward, he seemed to have remembered something. He quickly turned his head and said to Yang Guang, ¡°This thing is very useful. I¡¯ll take it back first. I¡¯ll contact you later!¡± Seeing his excited face, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t say anything. He could only nod with a bitter smile. Watching Hu Jian and another policeman drive away, Yang Guang felt relieved! At this time, Wu Xiaolian asked in a trembling voice, ¡°Guang, you, you really killed someone?¡± ¡°Yes, those two people wanted to bully sister Ling and kill me, so I had no choice but to do it!¡± Yang Guang nodded and said. Wu Xiaolian had a look of lingering fear when she heard that. She patted her chest and said, ¡°Will it be okay? After all, it was two people¡¯s lives!¡± ¡°It will be okay. You see, Mr. Hu forgot to ask about the specific details just now. Obviously, he didn¡¯t take it seriously. After all, they are two extremely vicious guys!¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°That¡¯s good!¡± Wu Xiaolian felt that her legs were a little weak, so she quickly sat down again. A small storm had passed. Hu Jian didn¡¯t make any movements for the time being, and Yang Guang didn¡¯t take this matter to heart anymore. He began to focus on planting vegetables in the greenhouse. There were still some left at the moment. The greenhouse didn¡¯t need to keep the temperature. Instead, he had to pay attention to shade. Therefore, after buying more than ten kinds of vegetable seeds and refining them with his own energy, he planted the seeds. As for the water needed to water the vegetables, this was also an important point, but he was not in a hurry yet. Yang Guang first went to the town to buy a high-head water pump, a few hundred meters of electric wires and water pipes and had the shop owner deliver them to his house on a tricycle. The water pump went down to his own well. The electric wires and water pipes went out from the courtyard and were tied to a tree across the street. They were then raised and sent all the way to the greenhouse. Two days passed just like that. The vegetables in the greenhouse had sprouted. The black stone was tied up by Yang Guang with a rope and directly thrown into the well. It meant that the well water had the ability to stimulate the growth of plants. He believed that using this water to water the vegetables would definitely help them to grow very quickly. He had been busy with these things for two days. When he saw that the vegetables were growing well, Yang Guang took some time to rest. That afternoon, Xu Ling went to town for a meeting and did not come back. Yang Guang and Wu Xiaolian were at home preparing lunch when a car came from the door. When he saw the car, Yang Guang immediately smiled and quickly walked out to welcome it. The car was Qi Yingxue¡¯s, but he did not expect that Mu Xiaowan would also come in the car! After getting out of the car, the two of them looked at each other. Mu Xiaowan¡¯s eyes were fixed on Yang Guang, and there was a hint of resentment in her eyes. Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but laugh! ¡°Idiot!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes at him and said, ¡°Hurry up and help unload the car. There¡¯s a lot of things!¡± ¡°Oh, oh, oh, I¡¯m coming!¡± Yang Guang reacted and quickly went to the back of the car. When he opened the trunk, he was immediately stunned! There were two big buckets and a few big plastic bags inside. He couldn¡¯t see what was inside clearly, but it was bulging anyway. Then, when he picked it up, the smell of the sea instantly spread out! What Qi Yingxue brought was all seafood! Don¡¯t mention the oysters and scallops, there were even fresh prawns, crabs, and abalones! Seeing so many things, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but look at Qi Yingxue. ¡°Sis, you¡¯re spending so much money on this!¡± ¡°It¡¯s nothing. I can¡¯t keep eating your vegetables for free. Just treat this as a return gift!¡± Qi Yingxue said with a smile. ¡°That¡¯s a little too expensive. You¡¯re not allowed to spend money like this in the future!¡± Yang Guang said this and quickly welcomed the two girls into the courtyard.. Chapter 108 - Magical Well Water Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After entering the courtyard and not seeing Xu Ling, Qi Yingxue asked around and only found out then that the former was going to town for a meeting. Hence, she smiled. ¡°That¡¯s good. Anyway, all this seafood have to be kept away. When she comes back, we¡¯ll cook them for dinner. The timing will be just right too!¡± When Yang Guang heard that, he quickly asked, ¡°Sis, are you guys not leaving today?¡± ¡°Not just today. Xiaowan and I are planning to stay in the village for a few more days!¡± Qi Yingxue laughed. ¡°Oh, that¡¯s great!¡± When Yang Guang heard that, he was so happy that he was almost jumping for joy! It was also because of this that his entire body was suddenly filled with strength, and he even walked with the speed of the wind! After a simple lunch, everyone sat down under the shade of the trees and prepared to clean up the seafood they had bought. Yang Guang fetched two buckets of water while Wu Xiaolian found two large metal basins. While brushing the shells of the scallops and abalones, Yang Guang could not help but sneak glances at Mu Xiaowan from time to time. In the end, he was soon discovered by Wu Xiaolian and Qi Yingxue. The two of them exchanged glances and could not help but laugh. However, only the two of them knew the feelings in their hearts. Mu Xiaowan did not say anything. She sat on the stool and cleaned the scallop shells. When Yang Guang brought another bucket of well water, she suddenly thought of something. ¡°Oh right, using your well water to soak seafood, will it taste different?¡± ¡°Surely not?¡± Yang Guang was stunned. Then he thought about it. ¡°Aren¡¯t these things grown in the sea? They don¡¯t drink well water.¡± ¡°That¡¯s true!¡± Mu Xiaowan nodded. Then, she lowered her head and continued to work. She didn¡¯t speak again. Qi Yingxue had brought too much seafood. Just the crustaceans alone were enough to fill a large basin. The remaining prawns and crabs could only be placed in a bucket. Yaya had just learned how to walk, but she was already filled with curiosity. She staggered over to catch the crabs. Fortunately, Qi Yingxue saw it and quickly picked her up, so the child did not get caught by the crab pincers. However, Guang was not so lucky. This fellow had grown a little. Although it ran like a meatball, it was very agile. Taking advantage of the fact that people were not paying attention, it also ran to the side of the barrel to look. In the end, its nose got pinched. Guang was in so much pain that it cried out. Yang Guang picked it up along with the crab, and it took a lot of effort to break them apart. After that, Guang became obedient. It ran to its own nest and hid with a bitter expression. No matter how much Mu Xiaowan teased it, it refused to come out. After cleaning the seafood and soaking it in the water to get rid of the sand, Xu Ling came back on an electric bike. Along the way, the sun had made her face red. From afar, she could see Qi Yingxue¡¯s car at the entrance of her house. When she entered the courtyard and saw that she and Mu Xiaowan were both there, Xu Ling immediately cheered. She was extremely happy! Looking at the house becoming lively again, Yang Guang could not help but sigh in his heart. If he could live like this in the future, how wonderful would that be! Unfortunately, good things could not be taken up by one person. Such a happy time could only be short-lived. However, on second thought, Yang Guang became happy again. He thought to himself, ¡°Who cares about the future? As long as I¡¯m happy now, it¡¯s fine!¡± Hence, he quickly carried some firewood and prepared for tonight¡¯s seafood feast! Wu Xiaolian had never seen so many varieties of seafood before and did not know how to cook it. Therefore, she simply followed Qi Yingxue¡¯s instructions and boiled it in one pot and steamed it in the other pot. She used the simplest method to handle it. After the pot was opened, the fresh and sweet aroma immediately filled the entire courtyard. The indignant Guang also wagged its tail and came out. At this time, the sun was about to set, and it was the most comfortable time of the day. The visibility was high enough, and the temperature had dropped a lot. With a gentle breeze, everyone sat in the courtyard and began to taste the seafood feast. Among the crowd, only Wu Xiaolian had not eaten these things much. After tasting a scallop, she revealed a surprised expression. ¡°No wonder everyone said that this thing is good. It¡¯s actually so delicious?¡± Everyone laughed. Of course, those were kind smiles. Yang Guang smiled and looked at her. ¡°Sister-in-law, if you like it, I¡¯ll buy seafood for you every day from now on!¡± ¡°It¡¯s better not to. It¡¯s too expensive!¡± Wu Xiaolian laughed. At this moment, Qi Yingxue and Mu Xiaowan also ate a scallop each. Then, they were both stunned! Seeing them like this, Yang Guang asked curiously, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°This taste is different from the previous ones. Yang Guang, quickly try one!¡± Qi Yingxue said. Yang Guang was puzzled. He picked a scallop and put it into his mouth. Immediately, he felt a fresh and sweet taste. That scallop was very juicy. It simply melted when it entered his mouth! Then, his eyes widened. Ignoring the presence of the four ladies, he directly cursed, ¡°F*ck, could it be that what I ate last time was a fake scallop?¡± ¡°Of course not!¡± Qi Yingxue glared at him and continued, ¡°If you ask me, it must be because of the well water. It was used in washing and soaking the seafood!¡± ¡°Then this well water of mine is not well water. It has become divine water!¡± Yang Guang clicked his tongue. He felt that this was a little too magical. When everyone tried the other seafood, the results were all exceptionally delicious. The taste was much better than what they had eaten before! ¡°Your well water is really amazing. Even the quality of seafood can be improved. If people keep drinking it, won¡¯t it be able to prolong their lives?¡± Mu Xiaowan said as she chewed on the prawns. The speaker didn¡¯t mean it, but the listener was interested. Xu Ling was immediately energized when she heard it! She turned to look at Yang Guang and immediately asked, ¡°How deep is your well?¡± ¡°Uh, my grandfather dug the well. It¡¯s about seven or eight meters deep, right?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°If you can use it to water the greenhouse, it means that the well has plenty of water, right?¡± Xu Ling asked. ¡°That¡¯s right. It won¡¯t dry even after pumping for a few hours. The amount of water is indeed not small. Perhaps the underground water level in our village is on this line of water!¡± Yang Guang said. Xu Ling nodded and continued, ¡°I suddenly have an idea. Should we dig a bigger well?¡± ¡°Do you want to produce mineral water?¡± Qi Yingxue immediately understood and asked. Xu Ling nodded and looked at her and Mu Xiaowan. ¡°Wan¡¯er¡¯s words just now reminded me that it¡¯s impossible for everyone to stay in the village and drink such good water. The best way is to package it so that everyone can drink it!¡± ¡°Sister Ling, you really have a business mind. But producing mineral water isn¡¯t that simple, right? Moreover, if you pump underground water all day long, I don¡¯t know if that stone will be powerful enough for that!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°That is indeed a problem!¡± Xu Ling nodded and then smiled, ¡°I also had a sudden idea. Forget it, let¡¯s not talk about it. Let¡¯s eat!¡± Yang Guang nodded and then said, ¡°I don¡¯t care about others. Anyway, if you guys want to drink this well water every day, it¡¯s easy. I¡¯ll just send it to the county regularly!¡± He paused at this point and added, ¡°Of course, it¡¯s best if everyone lives with me!¡± The girls looked at each other strangely.. They didn¡¯t say anything! Chapter 109 - Tested Ones Willpower Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio No one said anything, but there was a strange look on their faces. Yang Guang asked curiously, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°You¡¯re too greedy!¡± Mu Xiaowan glared at him, then changed the topic. ¡°Handling mineral water is still a small matter. Actually, there are other possible businesses, such as brewing wine!¡± ¡°Oh Xiaowan, you only have alcohol on your mind!¡± Qi Yingxue said with a smile. Yet Xu Ling nodded when she heard that. ¡°That¡¯s right. Brewing also pays attention to the quality of the water. If our water is good, the wine we brew will definitely be delicious!¡± ¡°Hey, I said don¡¯t interrupt. Xiaowan, why did you say that I¡¯m greedy?¡± Yang Guang asked. In the end, everyone directly ignored him and seriously discussed how to make use of the well water. Yang Guang felt helpless. He could only eat by himself and listen to their discussion. As the girls chatted and laughed, the sun set and the light gradually dimmed. In the end, they couldn¡¯t eat the seafood anymore because they had bought too much. As they couldn¡¯t leave it overnight, they felt that it was a waste to throw it away, so in the end, it was all given to Guang. This guy didn¡¯t disappoint and ate it all! In the end, Guang¡¯s belly was as round as a rubber ball. Only then did he return to his nest and lie down in satisfaction. It was Yang Guang¡¯s favourite segment again. Before anyone could say anything, he reminded everyone first, ¡°Today¡¯s bath water is from the well. Since everyone thinks that this water is very good, you can try it. I wonder if there will be any effect after the bath!¡± ¡°Is that so? Then I want to try it!¡± Mu Xiaowan was energized when she heard that. She turned to look at Xu Ling and Wu Xiaolian. ¡°Sisters, let me and Yingxue take a bath first, okay?¡± ¡°Of course, go and try it. Your skin will be smooth after washing. It¡¯s indeed very comfortable!¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Ah, then I have to hurry up and get ready!¡± When Mu Xiaowan heard this, she hurriedly ran into the house to get her clothes changed. Qi Yingxue was also eager to try it, so she did not stand on ceremony and rushed into the house. Yang Guang had already entered a state of absent-mindedness. He just wanted to wait for the two of them to come out of the shower and to see them dressed in cool clothes. It would be total eye candy. In the end, while Xu Ling and Wu Xiaolian cleaned up the dining table, he just sat there in a daze and did not help at all! When the two of them finished cleaning up the dining table, Xu Ling also went into the room to find clothes to take a shower. Wu Xiaolian walked past Yang Guang and gently slapped him. ¡°Young man, it¡¯s time to test your willpower!¡± Looking at her back view as she returned to her room, Yang Guang was speechless As expected, when he saw the graceful figures of Qi Yingxue and Mu Xiaowan walk out of the bathroom, Yang Guang felt his nose heat up and almost spurt blood! The two of them were dressed in tank tops and shorts. They wore slippers and wiped their wet hair as they walked. At the same time, they were whispering and laughing. This appearance was simply the most beautiful scenery in Yang Guang¡¯s eyes. Therefore, his eyes were wide open! Actually, Qi Yingxue and Mu Xiaowan had already seen his eyes. Although they were a little shy, they did not show it. Instead, they felt a little happy. When they sat down, Mu Xiaowan looked at Yang Guang. ¡°Hey, can your eyes still move?¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Yang Guang scratched his head and chuckled. ¡°Of course they can. It¡¯s just that I can¡¯t bear to move my eyes away when I see two beauties in front of me!¡± ¡°Tsk, you¡¯re so perverted!¡± Mu Xiaowan¡¯s face turned red and she rolled her eyes at him! Seeing Qi Yingxue looking at him with a smile and a gentle look in her eyes, Yang Guang suddenly became bolder. He swallowed his saliva and looked at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°So, after taking a bath, is your skin really smooth?¡± ¡°Yes, do you want to touch it?¡± Mu Xiaowan glanced at him and patted her thigh with a smile that seemed to have a hidden meaning! ¡°This¡­¡± Yang Guang¡¯s eyes suddenly widened and he shouted in his heart, ¡°I really want to touch it, but I still don¡¯t dare to do it!¡± He knew that this was a trap. If he really dared to touch her, then Mu Xiaowan would probably explode immediately and enter berserk mode! Therefore, after swallowing two mouthfuls of saliva, Yang Guang still shook his head. ¡°Forget it. I don¡¯t want to die young!¡± ¡°It¡¯s good that you know!¡± Mu Xiaowan glared at him and then turned her head away. The weather was hot, so everyone took a quick shower to freshen up. Therefore, Xu Ling and Wu Xiaolian came out of the shower in no time. Then, Wu Xiaolian took out a tea tray from the kitchen. ¡°Everyone, come and have a taste. These are the newly grown cucumbers and tomatoes in the house!¡± ¡°Wow, I was about to say it just now. I was so focused on eating seafood that I forgot about this!¡± Mu Xiaowan immediately ran over and reached out to take the tea tray. The cucumbers and tomatoes were very big, so Wu Xiaolian cut them up and made them into small pieces. She did not add any sugar, so they kept their original taste. However, after everyone tried it, they were still full of praise and said that the taste was excellent. While eating the cucumber that had a rich fragrance, Mu Xiaowan looked at Yang Guang and asked, ¡°Do you want to know why the water in the house turned into divine water after you had that stone?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know. Do you know what happened?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°I suppose I do!¡± Mu Xiaowan nodded and continued, ¡°But I only know a little. I can¡¯t explain it clearly!¡± ¡°Tell me, what¡¯s going on?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Actually, I heard that there is something invisible and untouchable in this world, called spiritual energy!¡± Mu Xiaowan bit on the cucumber and said, ¡°Spiritual energy is the root that nourishes all things. With it, plants can grow faster and animals can become smart and spiritual. As for humans, their physiques can become better!¡± Yang Guang widened his eyes and asked, ¡°You mean that the black stone is full of spiritual energy?¡± ¡°It should be like this. Since it is soaked in water, that is why so many animals are attracted to drink its water!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°I knew that this stone was not ordinary. So it has spiritual energy!¡± Yang Guang came to a realization and asked, ¡°Then this thing won¡¯t be like a battery, where the power will also be eventually used up, right?¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Mu Xiaowan was stunned, then she laughed bitterly, ¡°You¡¯ve really stumped me. I don¡¯t know this question either, so I can only go back and ask Grandpa!¡± ¡°Your Grandpa¡­¡± Yang Guang said two words and suddenly felt that it was not polite, so he changed his words, ¡°Our Grandpa knows a lot about spiritual energy?¡± ¡°Yes, my Grandpa is very knowledgeable!¡± Mu Xiaowan had a proud face, completely ignoring the suspicion that Yang Guang was taking advantage of her. ¡°Then where is he? I¡¯ll bring the stone over to show him later!¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°He¡¯s in the provincial capital. It¡¯s very far from here. But he¡¯ll return to the county at the end of the month. I¡¯ll bring you to meet him then!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°Okay, then it¡¯s a deal.¡± Yang Guang quickly nodded. Although he had the Method of Divine Farmer and could grasp some of the contents, Yang Guang only knew now that his knowledge was still not enough. Therefore, he was suddenly a little anxious and wanted to see Mu Xiaowan¡¯s grandfather as soon as possible.. Chapter 110 - A Thief Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Everyone sat in the courtyard and chatted in the shade. The sky gradually turned completely dark. It was already past eight o¡¯clock in the evening. Guang, who had been lying in its nest, suddenly ran out. It rushed out of the walls and let out a low roar. Seeing this, Yang Guang was a little puzzled. He looked at it and said, ¡°What are you shouting for?¡± ¡°Bark, bark, bark!¡± It would have been better if he hadn¡¯t said anything. Once he spoke, Guang became even more excited. He barked three times at the outdoors, and then rushed out like a meatball! ¡°This guy, what¡¯s wrong with him!¡± Yang Guang was puzzled and followed him out of the door. However, when he looked out of the door, he immediately saw a figure hurriedly turning into an alley in the village! ¡°Huh?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s eyes tensed up. It turned out that Guang wasn¡¯t barking randomly. There was someone outside the wall just now! Who came to his house in the middle of the night? ¡°What¡¯s wrong, Guang?¡± After pondering for a moment, he heard Wu Xiaolian¡¯s voice behind him. Yang Guang quickly turned around and said, ¡°It¡¯s nothing, it¡¯s nothing. This fellow has nothing better to do!¡± After saying that, he closed the courtyard door and walked back while stretching his waist. ¡°It¡¯s been a tiring day. Let¡¯s rest early, shall we?¡± Not wanting to make everyone worry, Yang Guang hid the fact that he saw a figure. He thought to himself, let¡¯s see if you still dare to come tonight. If you come again, I¡¯ll definitely catch you! After that person was discovered by Guang, he left in a hurry. It was obvious that he had a guilty conscience. If it was in the open, what was there to run for? Therefore, after he became alert, Yang Guang pretended to let everyone go back to their rooms to rest. However, he decided to raise his vigilance tonight and wait for that person to appear again! After the girls returned to their rooms, the courtyard returned to silence. Not long after, the lights were all turned off. Yang Guang¡¯s house and courtyard were completely dark. Guang also returned to his nest and lay down inside, whimpering. It had eaten too much seafood. Fortunately, this fellow¡¯s digestive ability was strong enough. If it was a puppy, it would be stuffed to death by now. However, it was not feeling well now. Its stomach was very swollen! Just as Guang was humming, a figure poked his head out from the south wall. He narrowed his eyes and observed the situation in the courtyard. Soon, the figure silently climbed over the wall and landed on the soil in the vegetable garden. The leg of his pants touched the vegetable leaves, making a swishing sound. The figure stopped in his tracks! He listened attentively and waited for a while, but did not hear any movement. Then, the figure walked forward again. After walking and stopping, the person carefully walked through the vegetable garden and came to the windowsill. In this midsummer heat, every household did not close their windows at night. The place where this person was standing now was Wu Xiaolian¡¯s room! At this moment, in the room, she was holding Yaya in her arms while Xu Ling was lying beside her. The two adults and one child were sleeping soundly! The room was dark, and the person could not see the situation inside clearly. After standing still, he took out a slender bamboo pipe from his pocket. He pushed and pulled twice, and a dark red spark appeared inside the bamboo pipe! As soon as the spark ignited, white smoke immediately rose from the bamboo pipe. The black figure poked the bamboo pipe through the gap of the screen window, lowered his head and blew twice. After confirming that the smoke had entered the room, the black figure straightened his body and smiled silently. However, the smile was still on his face when he felt a gust of wind at the back of his head. He immediately let out a low cry, and instantly shrank his neck! However, it was useless. The attack that was originally aimed at his neck had hit the back of his head. The black shadow did not even make a sound before it fell to the ground with a thud. ¡°Bark bark bark!¡± Only then did Guang react. It crawled up from its nest and barked twice. Yang Guang turned around to look at it and said in a low voice, ¡°Scram, what did you do earlier!¡± Hearing the displeasure in his tone, Guang quickly crawled back into its nest and did not make a sound. Looking down at the person on the ground, Yang Guang took out the rope tied around his waist and tied him up in no time! Just as he was tying the person, the lights in the courtyard lit up. He looked up and saw Qi Yingxue standing at the door with her mouth agape. Her entire body was frozen. Seeing that she was wearing a tank top and shorts, and that she was wearing slippers, Yang Guang took a quick glance and said, ¡°Sister, don¡¯t be afraid. I¡¯ve subdued this guy!¡± ¡°Who is this?¡± Qi Yingxue was not a heavy sleeper. She had heard some movement outside just now, so she groped her way around and crept out. She thought that if there was a thief in the house, it would not be too late to call for help after she saw the person clearly. In the end, she did not expect to see Yang Guang and another person lying on the ground. Yang Guang flipped the person on the ground at this moment and found that he had a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks. He had the face of a traitor, but he did not recognize the person. Hence, he frowned. Yang Guang raised his head and said to Qi Yingxue, ¡°I don¡¯t recognize him. I don¡¯t know where he came from!¡± After saying that, he stood up. ¡°Let¡¯s ignore him for now. Let¡¯s quickly look at my sister-in-law and sister Ling!¡± When the black shadow had sprayed smoke into the window, Yang Guang had not seen it clearly, but he had seen the scene of him putting away the bamboo pipe. Therefore, he felt that this person might have done something bad, so he left this person aside and immediately rushed into the inner room. The door was not locked. After pushing the door open and entering, Yang Guang came to the bedside and placed his hand on Wu Xiaolian¡¯s pulse. Fortunately, she was fine. She had just fallen into a deep sleep. Looking at Yaya and Xu Ling, the two of them were also fine. They did not suffer from some kind of strange poison that was difficult to cure. Heaving a sigh of relief, Yang Guang turned on the electric light when he saw Qi Yingxue standing at the door. ¡°They were drugged, but they will recover soon. Don¡¯t worry!¡± ¡°Oh¡­¡± Qi Yingxue was still a little confused. She nodded blankly and asked, ¡°Do you need my help with anything?¡± ¡°No need, I can do it myself!¡± Yang Guang said and turned around to leave. He went to the well and fetched a bucket of water. Then, he wet two towels and quickly returned to the house. After wiping their faces with the cool well water, Xu Ling and Wu Xiaolian slowly woke up. Yaya, on the other hand, was fine. She reached out to rub her face, turned over and fell asleep again. Meanwhile, Wu Xiaolian and Xu Ling opened their eyes and saw Yang Guang beside them. The first thing they subconsciously did was to cover their chests! Wear cooling clothes when you sleep, but don¡¯t get naked! Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Don¡¯t be nervous. There was a thief in the house just now. Both of you were drugged!¡± ¡°How could it be?¡± Xu Ling was at a loss. She flipped over and sat up with Wu Xiaolian. ¡°Who did this?¡± ¡°I haven¡¯t asked. I was worried that you guys wouldn¡¯t wake up after a long time, so I quickly went to get the well water. I¡¯m going to ask him now!¡± Yang Guang said this and turned around to leave. After this ordeal, Mu Xiaowan also woke up. She rubbed her eyes and walked out of the house. The four women came to the courtyard. When they saw Yang Guang kick the monkey-faced man, the man immediately let out a muffled groan and opened his eyes. When he saw the lights and saw Yang Guang looking at him with a cold smile, the man knew that the matter had been exposed and that he had failed in his mission! Chapter 111 - A Chat Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang looked at that person and asked in a deep voice, ¡°What¡¯s your name?¡± ¡°¡­¡± That person didn¡¯t say anything and just looked straight at him. ¡°What are you doing here?¡± Yang Guang urgently asked. That person still didn¡¯t say anything but stare at him. Seeing this, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but sneer, ¡°Kid, are you trying to be hardball in front of me? Do you know what I hate the most?¡± As he said that, he squatted down and patted that person¡¯s face, ¡°What I hate the most is the guy who lays hands on women!¡± The other party did not speak and kept staring at him. Seeing this, Yang Guang thought to himself that if he didn¡¯t do anything before him, then he wouldn¡¯t speak. Therefore, he wanted to let that guy have a taste of his power! Reaching out to pull the other party¡¯s sleeve, Yang Guang grabbed his wrist. With a crack, one of the man¡¯s fingers was broken on the spot! The man¡¯s eyes first turned into fear, then his face turned pale. His mouth was wide open! In the end, he only let out a few cries, but his voice was very hoarse, like a broken gong! Yang Guang was stunned. His tongue was shorter than ordinary people¡¯s. He was a mute! ¡°F*ck! No wonder he didn¡¯t speak!¡± After being speechless, Yang Guang kicked him and stood up. ¡°What should we do now? He doesn¡¯t know how to speak!¡± ¡°You better don¡¯t hit him. Why don¡¯t you call the police!¡± Xu Ling said. Yang Guang thought about it. They didn¡¯t know where this guy came from and he didn¡¯t know how to speak. He was afraid that he wouldn¡¯t be able to get anything out of him. Hence, he nodded and said, ¡°Alright, let Sir Hu check out what¡¯s going on with this person!¡± It was already late at night. It was past eleven. However, after Xu Ling dialed the police station¡¯s number, she still managed to get in touch with the police officer who was on duty. Then, she told him her identity and explained the situation here. The police officer at the police station immediately contacted Hu Jian upon hearing this. When the police arrived, everyone sat in a row in the courtyard and looked at that person with puzzled faces. ¡°Actually, when Little Guang rushed out earlier, I saw a figure. I was worried that you guys would be terrified and couldn¡¯t sleep at night, so I didn¡¯t say anything. Who knew that this guy wouldn¡¯t give up and still dare to come in!¡± Yang Guang explained what had happened. When the ladies heard it, they all felt a little scared! Mu Xiaowan¡¯s eyes widened. ¡°Then if you weren¡¯t alert, wouldn¡¯t this guy harm Sister-in-law and Sister Ling?¡± ¡°How can that be? I won¡¯t let that happen!¡± Yang Guang said in a deep voice, then he narrowed his eyes. ¡°No matter what, I must find out this person¡¯s background. If he has a patron behind him, I won¡¯t let him go either!¡± Seeing that he was really angry, the ladies looked at each other and felt a warmth in their hearts at the same time! After waiting for more than half an hour, a car with a flashing beacon silently drove into the village. The siren was not turned on. Arriving at Yang Guang¡¯s courtyard, Hu Jian came in with a policeman. When he saw the person lying on the ground, he was also stunned. Then, after listening to Yang Guang¡¯s narration and looking at the strange bamboo pipe, Hu Jian frowned! ¡°Sir Hu, did you think of something?¡± Seeing his serious expression, Yang Guang quickly asked. ¡°Yes, if I guessed correctly, this person should be in cahoots with the two tomb raiders in the mountain!¡± Hu Jian nodded and looked at the bamboo pipe in his hand. ¡°Nowadays, there are almost no people who still use this kind of knockout incense!¡± ¡°This thing is called knockout incense?¡± Yang Guang took it in his hand and looked at it. He even put it under his nose and sniffed it. Hu Jian looked at it and quickly glared at him. ¡°I already said it¡¯s a knockout incense. Why are you still sniffing it? Aren¡¯t you afraid of falling asleep on the ground?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m not that fragile. Isn¡¯t this thing not smoking?¡± Yang Guang chuckled and subconsciously stuffed the bamboo pipe into his pocket. Hu Jian ignored him and reached out to pull the person on the ground up. ¡°I¡¯ll take this person away. I¡¯ll inform you later if there¡¯s any news!¡± ¡°Alright, thank you for your hard work!¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°However, you may have to wait for a few days. If his identity is confirmed, this kid will have to be sent to the County Bureau or even the Provincial Department. Don¡¯t go out for the time being, especially at night!¡± Hu Jian reminded him and grabbed the mute into the police car. Then, he turned around the car and left! ¡°Looks like the police have already targeted that group of tomb raiders!¡± Xu Ling said this and then smiled. ¡°That¡¯s good too. We don¡¯t have to worry about safety anymore!¡± ¡°We don¡¯t have to worry about it actually. It¡¯s just that Little Guang ate too much today. It didn¡¯t notice anyone coming in just now!¡± Yang Guang said this and then looked at Little Guang who was lying in the kennel. ¡°We can¡¯t let it eat too much in the future. Otherwise, it won¡¯t be able to watch over us anymore!¡± ¡°It¡¯ll be fine when it grows up. It will grow up very quickly. It¡¯ll be like a big dog in two months!¡± Wu Xiaolian said. After a while, it was already early in the morning. Everyone went back to their rooms to rest. Yang Guang returned to his room. He couldn¡¯t fall asleep, so he opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling. His thoughts were in turmoil. After an unknown amount of time, he heard faint footsteps coming from the outer room. Then, those footsteps walked to the door. Yang Guang didn¡¯t think too much about it. He thought that someone might have got up and gone to the toilet. Feeling that nothing would happen again, he didn¡¯t get up. But unexpectedly, after a while, his phone suddenly rang! He opened it and saw that it was a text message from Mu Xiaowan, ¡°Come out!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Yang Guang was stunned. Only then did he realize that those footsteps belonged to her! What was this young lady doing? Sending him a text in the middle of the night and asking him to go out? Where should he go? Getting out of bed, Yang Guang quietly pushed open the door and tiptoed outside. In the obscurity, a figure was sitting under a tree. He quickly walked over and asked in a low voice, ¡°What are you doing?¡± ¡°I can¡¯t sleep. You chat with me!¡± Mu Xiaowan pouted and said in a low voice. ¡°Uh, why can¡¯t you sleep? Are you afraid?¡± Yang Guang sat down beside her and asked in a low voice. ¡°Afraid?¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes. Even in the dark, her sclera could still be seen. ¡°So you can¡¯t sleep at night?¡± Yang Guang was speechless. He had no idea what was she trying to do. Though she was not sleepy, he still wanted to catch some sleep! However, Mu Xiaowan said impatiently, ¡°If you don¡¯t want to accompany me, you may just go back to sleep!¡± Hearing her words, Yang Guang was reluctant to leave. He could only smile and say, ¡°Who said I don¡¯t want to accompany you? Am I such a disloyal person?¡± ¡°That¡¯s more like it!¡± Mu Xiaowan glanced at him, crossed her legs, and shook her little feet in boredom. Yang Guang hated the lack of moonlight. The young lady in front of him was dressed scantily, but unfortunately, he could not see her clearly! After a moment of silence, seeing that Mu Xiaowan was not willing to speak, he could not help but ask, ¡°Don¡¯t you want to talk? Why aren¡¯t you talking?¡± ¡°You speak, I shall listen!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°Uh¡­¡± Yang Guang scratched his head and thought that girls were really difficult to understand! After racking his brain, he could not help but ask, ¡°Is it okay to talk about anything?¡± Chapter 112 - Dream Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Mu Xiaowan paused for a moment, then she said in a low voice, ¡°You¡¯d better behave yourself. If you go overboard, believe it or not, I¡¯ll call for help!¡± ¡°Oh!¡± When Yang Guang heard that, he immediately put away his bad thoughts. He wanted to talk about things that were not suitable for children, but with such a warning, he immediately restrained himself. After pondering for a moment, he suddenly felt that something was wrong! It was in the middle of the night, and there was no one around. It was just him and her. How could they not say something that would give people goosebumps? Stop fooling around, alright? They were all adults! Yang Guang rolled his eyes and chuckled. He stretched out his hand and hugged her shoulder! They had already kissed, so what if he hugged her? Sure enough, Mu Xiaowan¡¯s body shivered a little, but she did not struggle! With her smooth skin on his fingertips, Yang Guang chuckled, ¡°My well water is fabulous!¡± ¡°Tsk, my skin is originally smooth!¡± Mu Xiaowan said disdainfully. ¡°Then it¡¯s much better now, even though I¡¯ve never touched it before!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°In the future, you can come to my house often or stay at my house often. It won¡¯t take long for you to become even more beautiful than those big stars on TV!¡± ¡°Why do I need to be so beautiful? It will only attract flies to buzz around me!¡± Mu Xiaowan said in a bad mood. ¡°Whoever dares to buzz around you, let¡¯s beat him up!¡± Yang Guang hugged her shoulder and sniffed the faint fragrance. It was hard to describe how happy he felt. In any case, he was extremely happy! However, at this moment, Mu Xiaowan turned her head and looked at him. ¡°You¡¯re that fly. Help me beat yourself up!¡± ¡°Me?¡± Yang Guang forced a smile and punched his own leg. ¡°Why didn¡¯t you behave?!¡± Mu Xiaowan was dumbfounded. The two of them just sat together and talked nonsense. Whether it was for fun or nonsense, it didn¡¯t matter as long as they enjoyed each other¡¯s presence. But now, Yang Guang and Mu Xiaowan felt the same. What they said was no longer important. They just needed to snuggle together. After a while, Yang Guang felt Mu Xiaowan¡¯s head resting on his shoulder. It had been a while since they had spoken. Yang Guang suddenly felt his throat was dry! Swallowing his saliva, he suppressed his intense heartbeat and lowered his voice. ¡°Sis, I didn¡¯t kiss enough last time.¡± ¡°¡­¡± Mu Xiaowan¡¯s body trembled and quickly broke free from Yang Guang¡¯s hand. ¡°I¡¯m not fooling with you anymore, Pervert!¡± After saying that, she was about to walk away, but her wrist was pulled by Yang Guang. As he pulled her slightly towards himself, she sat directly on Yang Guang¡¯s lap! Taking a deep breath, Mu Xiaowan saw Yang Guang¡¯s eyes twinkle in a daze. Her face turned red, and she subconsciously closed her eyes! With a beauty in his arms and shyness revealed on her face, shouldn¡¯t Yang Guang do something? Without saying anything else, he lowered his head and kissed her! This kiss lasted for a long time. The two of them gradually mastered the technique and started to become like a duck to water. Yang Guang was no longer satisfied with the current situation. He hugged Mu Xiaowan¡¯s shoulder with one hand and his other hand became disobedient. Mu Xiaowan, who was already lost in the hot kiss, suddenly trembled and opened her eyes. Yang Guang¡¯s hands also paused and did not dare to make any move. He thought that if Mu Xiaowan fell out with him, he would quickly withdraw his hands and use all his strength to apologize. After all, she would not really be angry! Unexpectedly, Mu Xiaowan looked at him in a daze. She actually wrapped her arms around Yang Guang¡¯s neck and took the initiative to kiss him! Yang Guang¡¯s heart exploded. He thought that he should show more of his passion! In the end, his hand became absolutely unrestrained. It wasn¡¯t until Mu Xiaowan¡¯s body was trembling and her entire body was burning hot that she broke free from Yang Guang¡¯s mouth and said tenderly, ¡°No, we should stop.¡± Only then did Yang Guang stop and hug her tightly! The two of them hugged each other. For a long time, they couldn¡¯t bear to let go of each other. They wished they could stick their skin together, or the two of them could merge into one person! This feeling of being in love was indeed too wonderful. Mu Xiaowan was actually not in a very comfortable position while sitting on Yang Guang¡¯s lap, so after hugging for a while, the two of them let go of each other tacitly. Then, Mu Xiaowan stretched her arms and legs and turned to look at Yang Guang. ¡°Hey, you were very experienced just now. Tell me, have you hugged and kissed others before?¡± Yang Guang was stunned and quickly shook his head. ¡°No!¡± ¡°I don¡¯t believe it!¡± Mu Xiaowan glared at him. ¡°You must have had a girlfriend before!¡± She didn¡¯t know that Yang Guang had never had a girlfriend before, but he had an indescribable experience with He Hua. However, Yang Guang had to keep this matter in his heart. Even if He Hua was no longer in Qingshan Village, he couldn¡¯t tell anyone about it! Therefore, Yang Guang still tried his best to defend himself and said that he really had no girlfriend before! Mu Xiaowan did not intend to find out any secret from him. She was just acting coquettishly. After a moment of silence, she raised her head and looked at Yang Guang. ¡°Can I go back to sleep now?¡± ¡°Where to sleep? My room?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°You¡¯ve gone too far!¡± Mu Xiaowan reached out and tapped his forehead. ¡°Don¡¯t push your luck. Otherwise, hmph, the consequences will be terrible!¡± Though she might look fierce, she was very adorable in Yang Guang¡¯s eyes. He could not help but hug her. ¡°Okay, okay, okay. I lose. Then you go back to your room and sleep. I want to sleep too!¡± ¡°Remember to wake up early tomorrow!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. Her footsteps were light as she ran back into the room. Yang Guang did not move until she was out of his sight. He reached out and pinched his thigh, instantly grimacing in pain. Everything that happened just now was indeed like a dream! A poor country lad getting the favor of a city girl was a little unreliable in itself. Moreover, Mu Xiaowan was a top-notch beauty! After confirming that he was not dreaming, Yang Guang returned to his room with light footsteps! The next morning, the sound of footsteps outside his room woke him up. Yang Guang got up and saw that it was already eight o¡¯clock in the morning! Normally, he would wake up naturally at six o¡¯clock. Since he was delayed for some time last night, he naturally woke up late on that day. When he went out, he saw that the ladies had already woken up. Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling had finished washing up. The two of them were cooking in the kitchen while Mu Xiaowan was squatting by the well and brushing her teeth. When he saw such a scene, Yang Guang was delighted. He thought to himself that if it was like this every day, then wouldn¡¯t life be too wonderful? It would really be like a dream come true! ¡°Hey, why are you standing there dazed? There¡¯s no more water. Help me get a bucket!¡± Mu Xiaowan¡¯s mouth was still frothing with toothpaste as she said snappily. Yang Guang replied and quickly ran to the well. Then, he lowered his voice and asked, ¡°Sis, did you sleep well last night?¡± ¡°Slept well? My foot!¡± Mu Xiaowan¡¯s face was red. She glared at him and said, ¡°Your hands are too strong. It was very uncomfortable!¡± ¡°Then I¡¯ll be careful next time!¡± Yang Guang said with an embarrassed smile. Mu Xiaowan¡¯s face turned even redder.. ¡°Bah, there will be no next time!¡± Chapter 113 - Guest Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The two of them had their backs facing the well, afraid that Qi Yingxue and the others would notice something. However, the way the two of them squeezed together was a little sneaky. Therefore, Qi Yingxue asked with a smile, ¡°What are you two doing?¡± ¡°No, nothing. I¡¯m fetching water!¡± Yang Guang shouted and quickly threw the bucket into the well. After fetching water and washing up, breakfast was ready. While eating, Yang Guang remembered something and quickly asked Qi Yingxue, ¡°Sis, how long will you be staying this time?¡± Qi Yingxue was steadfast. She smiled and said, ¡°Two or three days. If nothing crop up in the restaurant, I might stay until this weekend!¡± ¡°Oh, today is Wednesday. Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday¡­¡± Yang Guang counted seriously with his fingers. Seeing him like this, Qi Yingxue smiled until her eyes curved. ¡°Don¡¯t count Saturday. Friday is the weekend. At the latest, we should leave on Friday afternoon!¡± ¡°Why?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°There will be a lot of guests on the weekend. The restaurant will be very busy. I feel uneasy when I¡¯m not there!¡± Qi Yingxue said. Yang Guang suddenly understood. ¡°I see!¡± ¡°Sister Yingxue is a very ambitious person. It¡¯s already not easy for her to take three days off!¡± Xu Ling said with a smile. ¡°Three days is still not enough for you?¡± Mu Xiaowan glanced at Yang Guang and followed up with a question. ¡°Uh, I hope that you can stay longer and drink more of my well water!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and found an excuse to explain. Mu Xiaowan didn¡¯t say anything else and lowered her head to take a sip of porridge. ¡°Oh right, since you¡¯re going to stay here for a few days, why not let Yang Guang bring you guys into the mountain to pick mushrooms. Not to mention the pine mushrooms, even picking some straw mushrooms would be good too!¡± Wu Xiaolian said. ¡°Sure, I was planning to do that too. I even brought my hiking shoes!¡± Qi Yingxue said with a smile. Yang Guang felt a little headache when he heard that. The last time he brought Mu Xiaowan up the mountain, there was almost an accident. Would there be any more accidents this time? However, his sister-in-law was kind-hearted, so he couldn¡¯t refuse. He could only nod. ¡°Alright then.¡± Just as they had decided to enter the mountain to pick mushrooms, Xu Ling¡¯s phone rang. After the call was connected, she was stunned when she heard what the other party said. After listening to a few sentences, Xu Ling nodded and replied with a few ¡°OK¡±. Then, she hung up the phone and turned around to say to everyone, ¡°We are going to receive a guest!¡± Everyone was stunned. Yang Guang quickly asked, ¡°Who is it?¡± ¡°It¡¯s a police officer from the provincial capital. He needs our assistance in solving the case. Sir Hu told me about that!¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°A police officer?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s eyes instantly widened when he heard that. ¡°No way! That police officer is going to stay at our house?¡± In his nervousness, his voice was raised by an octave! Everyone looked at him in puzzlement. Mu Xiaowan¡¯s face was filled with curiosity. ¡°Why are you so agitated?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t like to sleep on the same bed with other men!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°¡­¡± Everyone was speechless. Mu Xiaowan immediately burst into laughter. ¡°Your brain is spinning very fast. Just when you heard that there will be guests coming, you immediately thought of his lodging?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Why don¡¯t we let him stay at the village headquarters!¡± Yang Guang said. Xu Ling shook her head. ¡°I¡¯m afraid that won¡¯t do. As Sir Hu said, the main purpose of this person coming to the house is to protect us. Then, if someone mounts a sneak attack again, he will take the opportunity to capture them!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Hearing this, Yang Guang was speechless. Then, he looked distressed. ¡°Are they kidding? Do we still need someone to protect us? I can protect all of us!¡± ¡°They are just being kind. You don¡¯t have to be anxious. Let¡¯s wait for him to come first!¡± Xu Ling comforted him. ¡°Alright!¡± Although Yang Guang did not say anything else, he felt very uncomfortable in his heart! Why? He was used to staying with four women alone, but now, there would be another man, he felt a little uncomfortable! Yang Guang did not know that his thoughts were completely territorial! Although he had just confirmed his relationship with Mu Xiaowan, he had already classified Xu Ling and Qi Yingxue as his people subconsciously. He did not wish for other men to interfere! He lowered his head and thought for a while. Yang Guang thought to himself that he would wait for the police officer to come and have a match with him if there was nothing else he could have done. If the police officer was no match to him, then he might as well forget about his mission and leave them alone! Yes, he had made up his mind! Right after his decision-making, a black car drove to the gate. The moment he saw the car, Yang Guang immediately stood up. He was a little eager to show the other party his might! In the end, the car door opened and a pair of petite feet landed on the ground. Following that, a girl in a black and blue police uniform with a high ponytail got out of the car. ¡°¡­¡± Yang Guang was completely dumbfounded. Not only him, Qi Yingxue and the rest were also a little dumbfounded. They watched in a daze as the lady walked into the courtyard. Following that, she asked in a crisp voice, ¡°Excuse me, is this Yang Guang¡¯s house?¡± The lady had a baby face that was round and very cute. Her eyes were quick-witted and her face was delicate, portraying a huge contrast to her police uniform, so everyone was stunned. Wu Xiaolian was the first to react. She reached out and poked Yang Guang¡¯s waist. Only then did she wake him up. He hurriedly took two steps forward. ¡°I am Yang Guang. You are?¡± ¡°Hello, my name is Lu Wenwen. I am from the Provincial Public Security Department.¡± Looking at her fair and tender hand, Yang Guang quickly wiped his hands with his pants and shook her hand. Then, he said with a bitter smile, ¡°I thought you would be a man. We were thinking how to arrange your lodging!¡± ¡°Why? The rooms are fully occupied?¡± Lu Wenwen asked. ¡°No, of course not!¡± Yang Guang smiled and said quickly. ¡°That¡¯s great. Otherwise, it would be very troublesome.¡± Lu Wenwen smiled. She turned around and waved to the rest. ¡°Hi, Hello!¡± ¡°Hello!¡± Her baby face had a strong affinity, so Xu Ling and the others all came over. Seeing that everyone was introducing each other, Yang Guang thought to himself, ¡°Although she is a policewoman, it seems to be a problem for me. My room must be given up now. Where should I stay?¡± Just as he was thinking, Mu Xiaowan walked over and said with a mischievous smile, ¡°It looks like someone is going to move his nest and sleep somewhere else!¡± ¡°Ugh, don¡¯t gloat like that!¡± Yang Guang¡¯s face was almost turning into a bitter gourd. Hearing their conversation, Xu Ling said, ¡°You don¡¯t have to go to the village headquarters either. Isn¡¯t there a room in the greenhouse across the street? You can stay there for the time being!¡± Yang Guang was stunned and quickly shook his head. ¡°No, Madam Lu is here to protect me. How can I not be at home?¡± ¡°Stop fooling around. Do you still need any protection?¡± Mu Xiaowan glared at him. ¡°Who was the one who swore that he can protect himself?¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Yang Guang was immediately embarrassed and had nothing to say. Lu Wenwen looked at everyone and was a little curious as to why these beautiful ladies would gather together. Her big eyes blinked as she said, ¡°Why not we just crowd in?¡± Yang Guang smiled and turned to look at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°That¡¯s a good idea.. I¡¯ll just cram in the same room with you!¡± Chapter 114 - Great Harvest Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio When Mu Xiaowan heard Yang Guang¡¯s words, her face instantly turned red in front of everyone. She spat at him, ¡°Bah, stop dreaming!¡± Knowing that the two of them were used to quarreling, everyone just laughed and did not take it seriously. Then, Qi Yingxue remembered the matter of going into the mountains to pick mushrooms. She said, ¡°Wenwen, you just came. Please familiarize yourself with the place first. We¡¯ll go into the mountains to pick some mushrooms and come back. We¡¯ll fry them for lunch!¡± ¡°Okay. Then you guys pay attention to your safety. I heard that some ferocious beasts have appeared in the mountains recently,¡± said Lu Wenwen. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. With Yang Guang around, he¡¯s stronger than a bear!¡± Said Mu Xiaowan. Yang Guang was speechless. He couldn¡¯t help but roll his eyes at her. However, he still got himself ready quickly. Then, he brought Qi Yingxue and Mu Xiaowan out. The three of them left the village. As they walked through the valley that led deep into the mountains, they smelled the fragrance of the various plants in the mountains and plains. Their mood became entirely free from worry. In her elation, Mu Xiaowan even picked some wildflowers and made two garlands. Then, she put them on with Qi Yingxue. Yang Guang was happy as they were happy. Hence, he threw the matter of where he would be staying at night to the back of his mind. Picking mushrooms was not the main task. They were there mainly for fun. After all, the ladies were from the city. Yang Guang did not have much to entertain them, so he could only accompany them into the mountains to have some fun. The three of them quickly entered the forest. Since no one had cut the grass or the firewood for many years, the forest was now full of weeds. It was not easy to find mushrooms. However, they were in the mountains after all, and the season was just right. Therefore, everyone quickly discovered many straw mushrooms and other fungi, and they were immediately overjoyed. Just as everyone bent down to look at the bushes and ground, there was a sudden bang a few meters away. Following that, a huge figure rose into the air and flew to the tree in the distance with a quacking sound! Mu Xiaowan was shocked and immediately went into Yang Guang¡¯s arms. Qi Yingxue was not in a good state either. She was so shocked that her face turned pale. Yang Guang was helpless. He shouted at the pheasant on the tree, ¡°D*mn you, you scared me!¡± ¡°What is that thing?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. ¡°It¡¯s just a pheasant!¡± Yang Guang patted her head. ¡°Alright, don¡¯t be afraid. In fact, it is even more afraid than us!¡± ¡°Such a sudden shock. Who can stand it?¡± Mu Xiaowan was speechless. Yang Guang chuckled. ¡°Don¡¯t be angry. I¡¯ll avenge you later!¡± After saying that, he looked around and picked up a stone the size of a goose egg under the tree. ¡°What? You want to use this thing to kill a pheasant?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked in surprise. ¡°That¡¯s right, I don¡¯t have any other weapons!¡± Yang Guang nodded and squinted his eyes to aim. Mu Xiaowan was speechless and turned to look at Qi Yingxue. ¡°This guy is really funny. If the stone can kill a pheasant, then I shall eat the stone!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t be too confident. Be careful that it really comes true!¡± Qi Yingxue said with a smile. ¡°Tsk, I don¡¯t believe it¡­¡± Before Mu Xiaowan could finish her words, Yang Guang waved his hand and the stone flew out like lightning. It hit the pheasant that was squatting on the branch! The huge impact directly shattered the pheasant¡¯s bones. It immediately cried out in pain and fell to the ground. Then, it fell into the grass and stopped moving! Yang Guang turned around and looked at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°What did you say just now?¡± ¡°No, I didn¡¯t say anything!¡± Mu Xiaowan hurriedly shook her head. Qi Yingxue couldn¡¯t help but burst into laughter. Yang Guang quickly ran to the tree not far away and picked up the pheasant. ¡°Wow, it¡¯s so fat. We will have a delicious meal again today!¡± ¡°Is this thing delicious?¡± Mu Xiaowan was curious. She tilted her head and looked at the pheasant with a colorful tail in his hand. ¡°The meat of this wild pheasant is relatively dry and rather hard. It won¡¯t be easy to stew.¡± Yang Guang said this and then chuckled. ¡°But after cooking properly, the taste is still very good!¡± ¡°Are you sure? If it¡¯s not good, I¡¯ll settle the score with you again!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, how would I lie to you?¡± Yang Guang smiled and turned his head to see Qi Yingxue standing still with her body slightly trembling. He was instantly stunned. Following her sight, Yang Guang¡¯s heart skipped a beat. Then, he cursed, ¡°F*ck, why is there such a thing?!¡± It was a python. Its body was a few meters long and it was hanging on a tree. Its head, which was as thick as an arm, was hanging in mid-air and it was sticking its tongue out at everyone! Seeing that Qi Yingxue was scared out of her wits, Yang Guang held her hand. ¡°Don¡¯t be afraid, I¡¯m here!¡± After saying that, he made the two ladies step back and raised the woodcutter to slash the python! This python was much smaller than the one that nearly strangled him last time. Seeing that it was still sticking out its tongue at him, Yang Guang did not stand on ceremony. He raised the woodcutter and hacked at it! With a plop, the python¡¯s head fell to the ground. The python¡¯s body instantly slid down from the tree and fell into the grass. ¡°Alright, we need not worry about our lunch anymore. They are all mountain delicacies!¡± Yang Guang laughed. Mu Xiaowan¡¯s eyes were wide open. ¡°This thing can be eaten too?¡± ¡°Of course, it¡¯s delicious too!¡± Yang Guang nodded and continued, ¡°You¡¯ll know when we get back. Later, just don¡¯t swallow your tongue too!¡± After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the python. He directly used the woodcutter to chop the python into many pieces in the blink of an eye! Qi Yingxue and Mu Xiaowan did not dare to look at it. They felt that it was a little too cruel! After chopping the python, Yang Guang made a string of grass to skewer its meat. Then, he said, ¡°I¡¯ll have to trouble the two of you to help with the mushrooms and pheasant. I have to carry this!¡± ¡°No problem. Do you need me to help you carry such a heavy thing?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. ¡°No need. I can carry it!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and directly picked up the python meat. It was only slightly past ten, but because their harvest was great, the three of them set off on their return journey, chatting and laughing as they went home. When they returned home, Xu Ling and the others did not expect Yang Guang to bring back so many things. However, when they saw the python, she and Lu Wenwen still revealed a trace of fear and did not dare to approach it. Fortunately, there was still Wu Xiaolian. She wasn¡¯t afraid. After all, she had seen this kind of snake many times since she grew up as a child in the mountains. Therefore, she quickly boiled a pot of hot water and processed the python meat. Yang Guang plucked the pheasant¡¯s feathers and removed its internal organs. Then, he chopped it into pieces and threw them into the pot together with the python meat. ¡°I heard that there¡¯s a dish in the south called Dragon and Tiger Fight. Let¡¯s call this Dragon and Phoenix Fight for our lunch today!¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. ¡°I just don¡¯t know if it¡¯s delicious.¡± Mu Xiaowan stood by the pot and said. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. You should be confident in my sister-in-law¡¯s cooking skills. It must be very delicious!¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. Mu Xiaowan still remained skeptical and didn¡¯t quite believe his words. However, as the water in the pot boiled again and the fragrance of the meat drifted out, she changed her mind.. She turned her head and said, ¡°Wow, I¡¯ve never smelled such a fragrant smell before!¡± Chapter 115 - Came from Afar Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After a big pot of meat was stewed, the smell of meat instantly filled the small courtyard. Xiao Guang, who had eaten too much last night, also ran out and obediently waited by the table. This was the first time Lu Wenwen saw it. Seeing its chubby appearance, she immediately liked it very much and quickly ran over to tease it. After the big meal was served, everyone sat down. Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°Today, the dishes are very lavish before our guests.¡± ¡°Whether it¡¯s in the village or the city, there¡¯s no chance to eat this. It¡¯s indeed very special!¡± Qi Yingxue said with a smile. Although everyone still had some resistance to the python meat, they could not resist the strong fragrance. Therefore, the ladies began to move their chopsticks very soon. After tasting the delicious food that melted in their mouths, everyone threw everything aside and immediately began to eat. Seeing that everyone was eating happily, Yang Guang and Wu Xiaolian looked at each other and both smiled in relief. While eating, Xu Ling asked, ¡°Oh right, Wenwen, why did you come all the way from the provincial capital?¡± ¡°This is a mission given to me by my superior. Last night, I heard that they caught a sneak attacker here. I set off overnight and didn¡¯t even have time to change my clothes!¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°No wonder. I was still thinking. You¡¯re wearing a police uniform at my house. Isn¡¯t that telling the bad guys not to come?¡± Yang Guang laughed. ¡°Yup, I¡¯ll go change my clothes later. I brought them with me in the car,¡± Lu Wenwen said. Yang Guang nodded and then asked, ¡°Madam Lu, you came all the way from the provincial capital. You shouldn¡¯t be an ordinary person, right?¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Lu Wenwen pondered for a moment, then she forced a smile on her face and said, ¡°I really can¡¯t tell you anything. I have to keep it a secret!¡± ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. We¡¯re friends since you¡¯re here. You¡¯re here to protect everyone, so we¡¯re not that curious anymore!¡± Yang Guang smiled and said. ¡°Okay, if I have to tell you, I won¡¯t hide it!¡± Lu Wenwen nodded and said. ¡°Oh right, why did that person launch a sneak attack last night? Could it be that he was certain that I killed their accomplice?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°It should be. That person is still being interrogated. Sooner or later, he will tell the truth!¡± Lu Wenwen nodded and continued, ¡°It was precisely because we are worried that there would be other accomplices that I immediately rushed over!¡± ¡°It¡¯s been hard on you. You came all the way from the provincial capital!¡± Qi Yingxue said this and then picked up a piece of meat for Lu Wenwen. ¡°This is what I should do. And when I came and saw that there were so many beautiful sisters, I was even happier!¡± Lu Wenwen said with a smile. Hearing her say this, Yang Guang quickly asked, ¡°How old are you?¡± ¡°I¡¯m nineteen. My birthday is during the winter!¡± Lu Wenwen said. Yang Guang slapped his thigh. ¡°That¡¯s great. Finally, there¡¯s someone younger than me!¡± ¡°Hey, what do you mean? Do you dislike us for being old?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked unhappily. ¡°No, I don¡¯t. It¡¯s just that I always feel like I¡¯m losing out by calling you sisters!¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. ¡°Tsk!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes and glared at him fiercely. Qi Yingxue was used to their bickering, so she didn¡¯t say anything. Instead, she looked at Lu Wenwen. ¡°You became a police officer at such a young age?¡± ¡°Yes, I joined the army when I was twelve. I stayed in the army for five years before I retired and became a police officer!¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°Wow, you¡¯re so amazing!¡± Hearing this, Xu Ling and Mu Xiaowan¡¯s eyes lit up with stars. They were envious! Yang Guang felt strange and looked at Lu Wenwen curiously. ¡°You can join the army at such a young age?¡± ¡°Yeah, I joined the army as a special talent. As for what¡¯s special, I can¡¯t tell you!¡± Lu Wenwen stuck out her tongue and said with a smile. ¡°Alright, since it¡¯s a secret, then I won¡¯t ask!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°Eat, eat, eat. Everyone, try to eat up. Don¡¯t let Little Guang, who¡¯s under the table, benefit!¡± When he said that, a wave of dissatisfied snorts came from under the table! Everyone was stunned. Then, they all lowered their heads to look at Little Guang, who was under the table! ¡°Oh my God, isn¡¯t this guy too smart? He can actually understand your words?¡± Lu Wenwen said in surprise. ¡°Uh, I just found out about it too.¡± Yang Guang scratched his head and looked at Little Guang. ¡°Hey, what¡¯s one plus one equal to?¡± Everyone was stunned by his action. Little Guang lowered his head and gnawed on a bone. It didn¡¯t even raise its head. ¡°You¡¯re awesome. Just now, you said that it can understand human nature, then you asked it a math question. If it answers you, are you planning to send it to school?¡± Mu Xiaowan said speechlessly. ¡°Then, I¡¯ll just send it to school. When it¡¯s done, find a job and go to work!¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. This conversation had already exceeded Little Guang¡¯s comprehension, so it ignored everyone. It lowered its head and concentrated on eating the bones as if it was eating the best delicacy in the world. After everyone had lunch, Mu Xiaowan patted her slightly bulging belly. ¡°Oh my God, if I keep eating like this, I¡¯ll gain ten kilograms when I go back to the city!¡± ¡°How can that be? You are so slim!¡± Xu Ling smiled and said, ¡°Look at me. I have lived here for some time, but I haven¡¯t gained any weight!¡± ¡°Your physique is good, but I¡¯m not the same as you. I have a fat-prone physique!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. After saying that, she saw Yang Guang sizing her up. She immediately glared at him and said, ¡°What are you looking at!¡± ¡°I wanted to see where you put on weight. In the end, it was obvious that not only did you not put on weight, you even lost a little weight!¡± Yang Guang said seriously. When she heard this, Mu Xiaowan was happy secretly, but she still rolled her eyes at him. ¡°Alright, there¡¯s nothing much to do in the afternoon. Let¡¯s go to the greenhouse to take a look and help you tidy up your bed!¡± Xu Ling stood up and said. Yang Guang¡¯s heart sank. ¡°Do you really want me to sleep there?¡± ¡°It¡¯s just for a few days. When Sister Yingxue and Wan ¡®Er go back, you can move back!¡± Xu Ling said. How could she know that Yang Guang had a secret plan in his heart? She simply thought that he was not used to other¡¯s bed and didn¡¯t want to move to another place. However, what Yang Guang thought was that if he moved to the greenhouse, he wouldn¡¯t have the chance to meet Mu Xiaowan privately at night. He raised his head to look at her and realized that Mu Xiaowan was also looking at him. There seemed to be a deep meaning in her eyes, and Yang Guang¡¯s heart trembled! He immediately changed his mind. He thought to himself, ¡°What¡¯s the big deal if it¡¯s further away? Even if it¡¯s tens of miles away, I would still be willing to run over to meet her!¡± Once he made up his mind, moving to the greenhouse would not be a problem anymore. Therefore, he went back to his room to tidy up. After wrapping a mattress and a blanket, Yang Guang went to the greenhouse with everyone. It was the first time Qi Yingxue and Mu Xiaowan came here. When they saw the vigorous vegetables in the greenhouse, they were pleasantly surprised. ¡°It¡¯s only been a few days, but they¡¯ve grown so big?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. Yang Guang said proudly, ¡°Of course. Our water is divine water. I estimated that the first batch of vegetables will be in the market in less than ten days!¡± Lu Wenwen was stunned for a moment.. A strange light flashed in her eyes and she immediately asked in a crisp voice, ¡°Brother Yang Guang, what is the divine water you¡¯re talking about?¡± Chapter 116 - Spiritual Stone Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°It¡¯s my well water!¡± Yang Guang smiled and didn¡¯t intend to hide it from Lu Wenwen. He continued, ¡°It¡¯s specially processed by me!¡± ¡°If your vegetables can grow so fast, there¡¯s only one reason. There¡¯s an ample supply of spiritual energy. If I¡¯m not wrong, Brother Yang Guang, you must have some treasure in your hands, right?¡± Lu Wenwen asked. ¡°That¡¯s right!¡± Yang Guang nodded. ¡°I have a Spiritual Stone!¡± Hearing this, Lu Wenwen¡¯s eyes immediately widened. ¡°Spiritual Stone? How is that possible!¡± ¡°Why is it impossible?¡± Yang Guang, Mu Xiaowan, and the others were all stunned when they heard this. ¡°Spiritual Stones are extremely precious. I¡¯ve never even seen them before. They¡¯re all legendary existences!¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°No way! They¡¯re that precious?¡± Yang Guang was a little stunned. Then, he scratched his head. ¡°After hearing what you said, I¡¯m actually not sure if I have Spirit Stones. I picked it up from a pond in the mountains.¡± ¡°Where is it?¡± Lu Wenwen immediately asked. ¡°It¡¯s in my well. I¡¯ll show it to you later!¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°I¡¯ll settle my temporary residence first!¡± After saying that, he turned around and went straight to the red-brick house next to the greenhouse. Seeing the disappointed expression on Lu Wenwen¡¯s face, Mu Xiaowan stepped forward and said with a smile, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, he will definitely show it to you later!¡± ¡°Okay, I¡¯m lucky to be able to see Spirit Stone!¡± Lu Wenwen nodded and said. This red-brick house was built for those who needed a resting place. When the vegetables grew up, someone would need to stay here and manage them. When they were to harvest them, they would also need a lot of manpower. Of course, there should be a place for rest. The house was very clean. The ground was paved with cement. There was a camp bed, a few plastic stools, buckets, and other items. Seeing that the environment was okay, Wu Xiaolian nodded with relief. Then, she said to Yang Guang, ¡°This place is pretty good. I wanted to help you clean up, but now there¡¯s no need.¡± ¡°There¡¯s nothing to clean up. It¡¯s not like I will live here all day!¡± Yang Guang smiled. He was still thinking about going home to stay. He felt that it would only be two or three nights, so he could still bear with it. The group visited the greenhouse for a while and then returned home. As soon as they entered the house, Lu Wenwen ran to the well platform impatiently. Seeing that the girl was anxious, Yang Guang shook his head with a smile and followed her into the courtyard. Then, he pulled up the rope that was tied to the black stone. Soon, the stone was brought to the well platform. Lu Wenwen grabbed it, and then her eyes lit up! Seeing her like this, everyone surrounded her. Mu Xiaowan asked, ¡°This is a Spiritual Stone, right? I heard about spiritual energy from my grandfather before. It can produce spiritual energy, so it must be a Spiritual Stone!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right, this is a Spiritual Stone!¡± Lu Wenwen nodded, her eyes full of excitement. Then, she raised her head and said, ¡°But this stone has a shell on the outside. It wasn¡¯t like this originally!¡± ¡°Oh?¡± Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°This thing has a shell? Could it have grown out of something?¡± ¡°No!¡± Lu Wenwen shook her head. ¡°This stone should be a meteorite. When it fell into the atmosphere, it had intense friction with the air, so it burned out a hard shell.¡± ¡°So that¡¯s how it is. Then wait!¡± Yang Guang said and turned to a room. He quickly took out a hammer from inside. Seeing him like this, the ladies were shocked. Mu Xiaowan hurriedly asked, ¡°What are you doing?¡± ¡°I¡¯m breaking it to see what¡¯s inside!¡± Yang Guang said. Mu Xiaowan glared at him. ¡°What if it¡¯s smashed?¡± ¡°He won¡¯t. The Spirit Stone is hard. As long as he doesn¡¯t use too much force, it shouldn¡¯t be a problem to hit it a few times!¡± Lu Wenwen said. Hearing her words, Mu Xiaowan was relieved and didn¡¯t stop Yang Guang anymore. Carrying the hammer to the well platform, Yang Guang squatted down and began to hit it gently while being surrounded by the ladies. Every hit seemed to hit the hearts of everyone. Even their breathing was careful. A moment later, the black shell broke bit by bit, revealing milky white inside. Then, Yang Guang struck from the edge of the broken shell. Very quickly, the shell was completely broken, revealing a milky white translucent stone inside. ¡°Wow, it¡¯s so beautiful. It looks like a gemstone!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. Qi Yingxue and the others were also filled with joy. They felt that this appearance was much better than the previous dark appearance. The ladies took turns to hold the Spirit Stone and admire it. Yang Guang suddenly thought of something and looked at Lu Wenwen. ¡°Do you think there¡¯s only one stone?¡± ¡°What?¡± Lu Wenwen didn¡¯t quite understand and asked blankly. ¡°I mean, there shouldn¡¯t be only one meteorite that fell from the sky. Logically speaking, there should be a lot of them!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Hmm¡­¡± Lu Wenwen held her chin and thought for a moment. ¡°I don¡¯t really know, but according to the movies, the meteorite will disintegrate after entering the atmosphere and then fall to the ground in pieces!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right!¡± Yang Guang nodded and turned to look at the mountain. ¡°Maybe there are Spirit Stones in the mountain!¡± ¡°It¡¯s possible!¡± Lu Wenwen nodded and continued, ¡°If there are some strange phenomena in the mountain, such as lush vegetation or something, it should be where the Spirit Stones are hiding!¡± ¡°That makes sense. This Spirit Stone was found in the pond, and all the animals around run over to drink water. This means that both plants and animals like these things!¡± The more Yang Guang talked, the more excited he became. His eyes were shining, and he couldn¡¯t wait to rush into the mountain. However, at this time, Mu Xiaowan reminded him, ¡°Wake up. If there really is a Spirit Stone, won¡¯t it turn all the animals in the mountain into spirits? Before you go and look for it, they have already surrounded the Spirit Stone!¡± ¡°That¡¯s true, but there must be an exception. What if it¡¯s buried?¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Fine, you¡¯re just greedy!¡± Mu Xiaowan didn¡¯t want to dwell on this issue, so she sighed and said. Yang Guang chuckled and turned to look at Lu Wenwen. ¡°Spirit Stones are so rare, they should be very valuable, right?¡± ¡°Uh, it¡¯s priceless. It can be said that someone is there to buy but it cannot be found in the market. Some people have the money, but they can¡¯t buy this thing!¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°That¡¯s good. It seems that I, a treasure hunter, will have a job to do again!¡± Yang Guang rubbed his fists, and his eyes shone with a green light! Seeing him like this, the ladies couldn¡¯t help but smile, and all of them were amused. Lu Wenwen also covered her mouth and laughed lightly. She suddenly felt that this young man who was a few months older than her was a little cute. Although she was quite reluctant to part with it, it still belonged to someone else after all. So, Lu Wenwen watched Yang Guang tie up the Spirit Stone again and put it into the well. Then, she raised her head to look at Yang Guang and said seriously, ¡°Brother Yang Guang, when you enter the mountain to look for the Spirit Stone, can you bring me along too?¡± Chapter 117 - Went to the Mountain Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang nodded without thinking. ¡°Sure, let¡¯s go to the mountain tomorrow!¡± When Mu Xiaowan heard that, she hurriedly said, ¡°I want to go too!¡± ¡°Okay, no problem!¡± Yang Guang readily agreed. ¡°Then I won¡¯t get involved. I¡¯ll stay at home!¡± Qi Yingxue said this, then looked at Yang Guang and winked at him. ¡°You are bringing two young ladies into the mountain. You have to protect them well!¡± Yang Guang didn¡¯t understand what she meant. He nodded and said, ¡°Of course. Even if I¡¯m bitten by a wolf, I can¡¯t let them be bitten!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry about my safety. I¡¯m capable to protect myself well!¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°I¡¯m fine too. I¡¯ve even practiced taekwondo before!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Okay, okay, okay. When we encounter danger, you two protect me!¡± The matter was settled just like that. As the sun gradually set in the west, Yang Guang¡¯s house was like the other farmers. Smoke rose from the chimney. After dinner, although Yang Guang was reluctant to leave, he still went to the greenhouse. Lying on the camp bed alone, Yang Guang let out a wail! Fortunately, there was no one around. Otherwise, that person would have been scared to death by him! After letting out two wails, Yang Guang estimated that the ladies should be taking turns to take a shower. Unfortunately, he could not see that beautiful scene. Yang Guang felt a sharp pain in his heart! In the end, he was unwilling to give up. He picked up his phone and sent a message to Mu Xiaowan. ¡°Sis, shall we continue tonight?¡± After waiting for a long time, his eyes were blurry. Mu Xiaowan finally replied to him. ¡°Stop daydreaming and go to bed early. You have to wake up early tomorrow!¡± ¡°Fine, I¡¯m totally screwed!¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and lay down on the bed helplessly. As he was gloomy, he didn¡¯t bother to cultivate, so he just went to sleep! In the end, he had a good sleep. When he opened his eyes, the sky was already slightly brightened. After getting out of bed, Yang Guang tidied up and left the small house, rushing home. When he entered the courtyard, Wu Xiaolian was already preparing breakfast. ¡°Sister-in-law, why did you wake up so early?¡± Yang Guang went to her and said with a smile. ¡°You guys want to go into the mountain to look for Spirit Stones, right? I¡¯ll cook earlier, so you guys can go to the mountain while it¡¯s cool!¡± Wu Xiaolian said with a smile. ¡°What a virtuous and good sister-in-law!¡± Yang Guang complimented her and went to fetch water using the bucket. Wu Xiaolian blushed at his words and made a face at his back! Although she was already a wife and mother, she was at the prime time of a lady. Without the pressure of life, coupled with the influence of Xu Ling and Mu Xiaowan, Wu Xiaolian gradually began to release her natural instincts. After breakfast was ready, Mu Xiaowan and Lu Wenwen came out of the room yawning. Seeing that the two of them were half-awake, Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°Haven¡¯t you slept enough? Why don¡¯t you go back and sleep for a while?¡± ¡°No need. It¡¯s just that your bed is too hard and I couldn¡¯t sleep well!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°Did you sleep on my bed last night?¡± Yang Guang heard it and quickly asked. ¡°Yes, what¡¯s wrong?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. ¡°Nothing, nothing. I was just asking!¡± Yang Guang smiled and didn¡¯t say anything more. But in his heart, he wondered if his quilt was stained with her fragrance? Then, when he slept in the future, could he also smell her fragrance while falling asleep? Although he couldn¡¯t hug her, having her smell on his bed was still pretty good! Thinking of this, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but smile foolishly. Mu Xiaowan and Lu Wenwen looked at each other and were a little speechless at the same time. Xu Ling and Qi Yingxue also got up very quickly. They sat together and ate breakfast. At the same time, Qi Yingxue couldn¡¯t help but remind them a few more words. ¡°Sister, don¡¯t worry. The three of us are martial arts experts. We won¡¯t even be afraid of a bear!¡± Yang Guang patted his chest and said. ¡°It¡¯s okay if you¡¯re not afraid, but don¡¯t try to be brave. It won¡¯t be good if you get hurt!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. Sister, have you forgotten? I¡¯m a miracle doctor!¡± Yang Guang laughed. Qi Yingxue was speechless and didn¡¯t know what to say. She could only nod her head. ¡°Okay!¡± After breakfast, the sun rose from the east. Yang Guang and the two ladies each took their baskets, left the house, and went to the mountain. Early in the morning, the air in the mountain was exceptionally fresh. Accompanied by the chirping of insects and birds, the three of them were in a very good mood and their footsteps were much lighter. As they chatted and laughed, the three of them entered the deep mountains and walked towards the pond where Yang Guang had found the Spirit Stone previously. ¡°This mountain forest is really dense. It must have produced a lot of good stuff, right?¡± Obviously, Lu Wenwen was entering the deep mountains for the first time, and as she walked, she asked. ¡°Not only good stuff, but it¡¯s also a treasures trove!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued to talk about how he had previously found a lot of good things in the mountains in order to help his sister-in-law pay back the money. After listening to him, Lu Wenwen seemed to have heard a legendary story. She stared at Yang Guang with her wide eyes and said, ¡°No way! Then your luck is too good. You can find all kinds of good things!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. My luck has always been very incredible!¡± Yang Guang smiled and hid the secret that he had the Method of Divine Farmer as he said proudly. ¡°If you keep bragging like this, wouldn¡¯t you be slapping yourself in the face if you are unable to find the Spirit Stones today?¡±Mu Xiaowan asked. ¡°¡­¡± Yang Guang nearly choked to death, and he was immediately speechless. Seeing that he had no way to refute, Lu Wenwen hurriedly turned around, and her shoulders trembled. She was shy to laugh in front of him, so she could only do it this way. The three of them entered the dense forest deep in the mountains, and the road ahead began to become difficult to walk on. Yang Guang had even forgotten how he had sneaked into this place in the dark last time. Just thinking about it made him feel amazed. While chopping the weeds that blocked the path with a woodcutter, the three of them continued walking forward. It took them some time to reach the pond. The footprints of various animals could still be found on the ground, but none of them were fresh. This meant that it had been a long time since any animals had come to drink water. Without Spiritual Stones, the water in the pond also lost its spiritual energy, so naturally, it would not attract them. ¡°This is the place. Obviously, there is only one Spiritual Stone in the pond!¡± Looking at the situation at the edge of the pond, Yang Guang said to the two ladies. ¡°Yeah, there are obviously no signs of animal activity!¡± Lu Wenwen nodded and turned around to look at the surroundings. ¡°Let¡¯s find a higher place. It¡¯s best if we can see the surrounding environment.¡± ¡°A higher place? Then we can only go up the trees. The top of the mountain is covered with trees, which blocks our view,¡± said Yang Guang. ¡°It¡¯s okay, I know how to climb trees!¡± Lu Wenwen said and pointed at the slope in the north. ¡°Let¡¯s go there!¡± ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡± Yang Guang didn¡¯t say anything and immediately followed her. The three of them returned to the forest and went up the slope. Soon, they reached the top of the mountain. Looking at the dense trees around them, Lu Wenwen chose a thick and tall tree. She rubbed her hands together and prepared to climb the tree! Yang Guang said at this time, ¡°Alright, leave it to me. You two wait under the tree!¡± After saying that, he directly jumped to a branch that was three meters above the ground! Chapter 118 - Harvest Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Seeing Yang Guang¡¯s agility, Lu Wenwen was stunned for a moment, then she praised, ¡°No wonder Brother Yang Guang has always been very confident. Your movement is very neat!¡± Yang Guang was afraid of being praised! When he heard this, he was immediately happy. He smiled proudly and said, ¡°Now you know how powerful I am, right?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t be smug, hurry up and go up!¡± Mu Xiaowan glared at him in annoyance. Yang Guang smiled. He then hugged the tree trunk and exerted some strength under his feet. He quickly jumped up the tree! The tree was more than ten meters tall, and in the blink of an eye, he reached the top of the tree. At this time, his sight had become very extensive, and he could almost see the area within a few miles. Yang Guang lowered his head and looked at the two little faces under the tree that were raised up. He asked, ¡°What should we look for?¡± ¡°Uh, those kinds that look rather special. It¡¯s fine even if it doesn¡¯t follow common sense. You definitely can¡¯t see any animals. See if there are any special plants!¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°Okay!¡± Yang Guang nodded. He raised his head and put his hand above his eyes, looking around. The entire mountain was covered in emerald green. Among the mountain peaks, he quickly saw a rather special place! A few hundred meters to the west of the pond, there was a round forest on the opposite hillside. That was very special! The surrounding trees were all dark green, but that place was tender green, forming a very distinct and unique landscape. Seeing this, he lowered his head and told Lu Wenwen about the situation. ¡°It seems that there are many Spiritual Stones at that place. Brother Yang Guang, come down, let¡¯s move in that direction to take a look!¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°Okay!¡± Yang Guang nodded. Then, he took a few more glances at the direction. After memorizing it in his mind, he quickly came down from the tree. Then, the three of them did not delay. They went down the mountain and headed straight for the opposite hillside! The border was not very obvious. By the time they noticed the changes in the surrounding trees, Yang Guang and the others had already arrived at the center of the circular area. The plants here were all light green. The branches were thick and strong, and the leaves were dense, exuding a vigorous vitality. Seeing this, Lu Wenwen¡¯s eyes lit up. She turned around and glanced at Yang Guang. ¡°Brother, there must be Spiritual Stones here!¡± ¡°Really? But I didn¡¯t see any animals!¡± Mu Xiaowan asked in puzzlement. ¡°Maybe this is the reason?¡± Yang Guang pointed at a very special dark red plant found in the underbrush. ¡°What¡¯s this?¡± Mu Xiaowan and Lu Wenwen asked at the same time. ¡°This is called catchweed. It will blister the skin when it touches the skin. Animals will have stomachaches after eating it. If it¡¯s serious, it will kill them!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Then it¡¯s easy to understand!¡± Lu Wenwen nodded and continued, ¡°It can stop the animals, but it can¡¯t stop me. Let¡¯s clear up this place now!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± The three of them brought woodcutters with them, so they began to clean up the weeds around them. All kinds of weeds were growing lushly here. Though the surrounding trees had blocked the sunlight, they were still full of vitality. In addition to the excellent fertilizer underground, it must be due to the Spiritual Stones. As these weeds were growing too well, it took them a lot of effort to clean them up. Only a few square meters of empty space were created after some time. Yet, Mu Xiaowan and Lu Wenwen were so tired that they were panting. Yang Guang was also sweating. While mowing the weeds, he said with a wry smile, ¡°If there is any Spiritual Stone here, it would be such a waste to grow the weeds here!¡± ¡°Exactly! That¡¯s why we have to bring it home and put it to better use!¡± Lu Wenwen waved her woodcutter and said while panting heavily. ¡°Are we going to clean up the whole forest?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. ¡°I don¡¯t think so. With my luck, we might find a Spiritual Stone soon!¡± As Yang Guang spoke, he secretly activated the Method of Divine Farmer to channel the energy in his body. He wanted to give it a try, but he didn¡¯t expect that he would really receive spiritual energy from the outside world! The spiritual energy entered his meridians and merged with the energy in his body, and soon it was converted! ¡°Spiritual Stones are indeed good stuff!¡± Yang Guang was secretly delighted. Then, he walked straight in the direction of the spiritual energy. He completely forgot to cut the grass. Mu Xiaowan unintentionally raised her head and saw him walking into the depths of the grass. She hurriedly asked, ¡°Hey, what are you doing?¡± ¡°My sixth sense tells me that the Spiritual Stone is here!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and began to cut the grass with his woodcutter. Mu Xiaowan and Lu Wenwen looked at each other. Then, they stopped and walked over. ¡°You said it yourself. If you don¡¯t find anything, you¡¯ll lose face!¡± Mu Xiaowan reminded him. ¡°You don¡¯t believe me? Just wait, you¡¯ll soon see how lucky I am!¡± Yang Guang smiled and quickly cut down the weeds around him. Then, he touched the soil on the ground. ¡°This was washed down by the rain when it was raining!¡± As he spoke, Yang Guang flipped the soil. ¡°The thing is down there!¡± Mu Xiaowan pursed her lips. ¡°You¡¯re bluffing. I don¡¯t believe you!¡± Just as she finished speaking, Yang Guang removed a layer of soil using his hand. Then, a round black thing was revealed! ¡°F*ck!¡± Mu Xiaowan¡¯s eyes instantly widened and she was stunned! ¡°Oh my God, it is so big!¡± Lu Wenwen exclaimed in surprise. She threw away the woodcutter in her hand and rushed forward! Then, she and Yang Guang carefully cleaned the soil and soon dug a pit, revealing a round stone the size of a washbasin. Reaching out to touch it, Yang Guang felt a warm touch, and he was immediately amused! Just like the black stone he picked up last time, the touch was the same. In his excitement, he immediately wrapped his arms around it, wanting to pick up the Spiritual Stone! However, when he exerted some force, he realized that this thing was very heavy! It didn¡¯t look big, but it was more than a hundred kilograms. Even with Yang Guang¡¯s current ability, it was still a little strenuous to pick it up. ¡°We¡¯re rich now!¡± Just as he was rejoicing, Yang Guang¡¯s expression suddenly changed, and he cried out, ¡°Oh no!¡± At the same time, the three of them watched helplessly as the stone in his arms cracked! Black and white stones scattered all over the ground, and the three of them were dumbfounded. ¡°Err¡­ What¡¯s going on?¡± Looking at the broken stones of all sizes on the ground, Yang Guang was dumbfounded. ¡°Maybe it cracked when it hit the ground.¡± Lu Wenwen said as she picked up the white Spiritual Stones on the ground. ¡°But it doesn¡¯t matter. It¡¯s better this way. It would be easier to bring them out!¡± ¡°You¡¯re right.¡± Although Yang Guang felt that it was a pity, he still had a large pile of Spiritual Stones of different sizes, so he quickly crouched down with Mu Xiaowan to pick them up. The three of them spent some time picking them up. After counting, they found that there were more than sixty Spiritual Stones. The big ones could be as big as a fist, and the small ones were as big as pigeon eggs. This kind of stone was obviously a crystal, and every piece was angular. Looking at the bountiful harvest and the satisfied smiles on the two ladies¡¯ faces, Yang Guang could not help but ask, ¡°Are you convinced now? I told you my luck was incredible!¡± Just as he finished speaking, a cold voice came from afar, ¡°Your luck ends here!¡± Chapter 119 - The Man in Black Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was stunned and turned his head to take a look! Under a big tree that was dozens of meters away stood a man in black. His face was covered by a mask, and only a pair of yellow eyes could be seen. ¡°F*ck, what the hell are you doing inside the mountain while dressing like this?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s face was full of anger as he shouted angrily. ¡°Brother, this is not a good person. Don¡¯t do anything, leave him to me!¡± Lu Wenwen said this and walked in front of Yang Guang. She shouted at the man, ¡°Hey, you are from the Dark Soul, right?¡± ¡°Little Girl, you have some knowledge!¡± The man in black sneered and slowly walked over, ¡°Hand over the Spiritual Stones in your hand, and I may spare your lives today!¡± Lu Wenwen sneered and looked into the man¡¯s eyes, ¡°Who gave you the confidence to take our lives? I still want to catch you!¡± ¡°Just you, Little Girl?¡± The man in black was obviously stunned, and then he laughed evilly. ¡°Then let me see what you can do!¡± As soon as he finished speaking, his figure flashed, and in the blink of an eye, he was only five meters away! ¡°D*mn, his speed is so fast!¡± Yang Guang¡¯s pupils constricted, and he instantly rushed forward! ¡°Bang!¡± Before Lu Wenwen could make a move, his fist had already collided with the man in black! After a muffled sound, both of them took a step back at the same time and looked at each other! They were astonished by each other! ¡°Kid, you killed those two people from the Dark Soul, right? Your name is Yang Guang?¡± The man in black asked in a deep voice. Enduring the intense pain from his finger bones, Yang Guang sneered, ¡°Looks like I¡¯m a celebrity now. Are you from the Dark Soul and you are targeting me?¡± ¡°Revenge is a must. This is our inheritance!¡± The hand of the man in black was also in pain. After shaking it to relieve the pain, he took out a scimitar from his waist! ¡°D*mn you! You don¡¯t have any morals!¡± Seeing the other party take out his weapon, Yang Guang quickly picked up the woodcutter on the ground and protected Lu Wenwen and Mu Xiaowan. ¡°Brother, I can beat him!¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°No need. This is my home. I can¡¯t let him do whatever he wants!¡± Yang Guang was full of male chauvinism at the moment. He swore to protect the two ladies. As soon as he said that, the man in black¡¯s scimitar flashed and came straight for him. ¡°Get lost!¡± Seeing that the man was coming for his life, Yang Guang roared. The energy in his body quickly gathered in his feet and hands. Then, in a flash, he was right in front of the man in black! ¡°Crack!¡± With a crisp sound, the woodcutter in his hand was cut off. Only half of it was left. Yang Guang was dumbstruck. He did not expect the other party¡¯s scimitar to be so sharp! In his astonishment, the man in black¡¯s sinister laughter rang out, ¡°Brat, prepare to die!¡± The scimitar was right in front of him. It was about to cut his neck. With this slash, Yang Guang would definitely die. However, in this split second, something suddenly flew over and hit the forehead of the man in black with a whoosh! The man in black¡¯s vision went black, and the blade lost its direction. Then, he suddenly retreated a few meters, clutching his forehead as he said angrily, ¡°Who is this shameless person who dares to launch a sneak attack!¡± ¡°Bah, why didn¡¯t you say anything while relying on the sharpness of the blade?¡± Lu Wenwen placed her hands on her hips and said with a straight face. Only then did Yang Guang realize that she was the one who had saved his life. In that moment just now, he really felt that death was right beside him. He had no confidence in being able to dodge that blade! If something went wrong, even if his head didn¡¯t fall off, it would probably be cut in half. Therefore, he looked at Lu Wenwen gratefully. ¡°Thank you very much!¡± ¡°Brother, don¡¯t be nervous. I¡¯ll hold the line for you. I don¡¯t believe that I won¡¯t be able to kill this fellow!¡± Lu Wenwen let out a delicate shout and picked up two Spiritual Stones from the ground. She weighed them in her hands. Only then did the man in black realize that the stone that he had just received was actually thrown out by this young lady! Touching his forehead, an egg-like lump had already appeared. The man in black immediately flew into a rage. ¡°D*mn, wait for me to finish you off first!¡± ¡°Watch out for the Flying Locust Stone!¡± Just as he was about to rush towards Lu Wenwen, the other party shouted and raised her hand! The man in black¡¯s eyes narrowed and subconsciously turned his head to dodge. In the end, he realized that Lu Wenwen was looking at him with a wicked smile. ¡°Dummy, I haven¡¯t thrown them yet!¡± ¡°Woah, you little girl, you¡¯re infuriating me to death!¡± The man in black was completely enraged. He ignored Yang Guang and charged towards Lu Wenwen with his scimitar! When he was still two meters away, he raised the blade in his hand and tried his best to slash down. But at this moment, his hand that was raised in mid-air suddenly became empty! ¡°Ah!¡± The man in black raised his head and saw that not only was the blade gone, but his right hand was also broken from his wrist. Even his hand was gone! In a moment of shock, Yang Guang landed on the ground and used the momentum to kick! ¡°Bang!¡± This kick hit right on the chest, and the man in black was instantly sent flying. He was also unlucky and happened to hit a poplar tree. This poplar tree did not belong to the hardwood category. Its texture was relatively loose, so it was directly broken. Yang Guang¡¯s kick was a fatal blow. Not only did he use all the strength in his body, but he also added energy to his feet. The power was naturally extraordinary. Seeing the man in black crash into the poplar tree and then fall to the ground without any movement, Yang Guang heaved a sigh of relief. Lu Wenwen had already rushed forward to check. She found that the man was already dead and blood was flowing out of his mouth. She did not care much and turned to look at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°Sister Wan ¡®Er, are you okay?¡± ¡°I¡¯m¡­ I¡¯m fine¡­¡± Although Mu Xiaowan was brave, it was still her first time seeing a dead person. Moreover, it was Yang Guang who killed him, so she could not help but have a strange feeling in her heart. She swallowed her saliva and hurriedly asked, ¡°Wenwen, is this a legitimate self-defense?¡± ¡°Of course!¡± Lu Wenwen nodded. Then, she understood what she meant, so she smiled and said, ¡°Sister, don¡¯t worry. This person is dead, so be it. Brother Yang Guang doesn¡¯t have to bear any legal responsibility for killing him!¡± Mu Xiaowan was stunned. ¡°Ah? Why?¡± ¡°Because I¡¯m not an ordinary police officer. I have special rights!¡± Lu Wenwen smiled and didn¡¯t say anything more. She bent down and touched the body of the man in black, but she couldn¡¯t find anything that could prove his identity. She had no choice but to remove the man¡¯s mask and take a photo of his face, which looked to be in his fifties. ¡°What should we do with this corpse? We can¡¯t just leave him here, can we?¡± Yang Guang went up and asked. ¡°I have a plan. Brother, just wait and see!¡± After experiencing a battle together, Lu Wenwen had become more affectionate towards him. Then, under the surprised gazes of Yang Guang and Mu Xiaowan, Lu Wenwen took out a bag of white powder from her pocket and sprinkled it on the man in black. A moment later, a puff of smoke rose mixed with a pungent and unpleasant smell, and spread out! ¡°Later, the corpse will turn into blood and permeate into the soil. Let¡¯s leave this place first, it¡¯s too smelly!¡± Lu Wenwen picked up the Spiritual Stone that she had just thrown away and said. Yang Guang nodded, his eyes full of doubt.. This little girl was indeed not an ordinary policeman! Chapter 120 - Injury Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The three of them quickly went down the mountain and returned home with their harvest. On the way, Yang Guang said to Lu Wenwen, ¡°We got so many Spiritual Stones today. I¡¯ll give you half of them!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t. I didn¡¯t do anything. You found them. I better don¡¯t take any of them!¡± Lu Wenwen said. Yang Guang was stunned. He didn¡¯t expect her to say that, so he smiled and said, ¡°Who said you didn¡¯t do anything? You helped me a lot just now. Besides, those who see will get a share. How can you not take them?¡± ¡°Brother, you don¡¯t know the importance of this thing. If people who want the Spiritual Stones know about it, they will die of envy!¡± Lu Wenwen glanced at him and said, ¡°How about this? I¡¯ll take a small piece as a souvenir. When I go back, I can show off to my colleagues!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t take the small one. I¡¯ll find the biggest one for you!¡± Yang Guang said. Lu Wenwen smiled and shook her head. ¡°Brother, don¡¯t put me into trouble. If I take out such a big piece of Spiritual Stone, it will bring me trouble. You won¡¯t want me to be watched all day long, and someone will always think of snatching it away from me, right?¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Yang Guang didn¡¯t expect this, so he pondered for a moment and said, ¡°Okay, then leave the Spiritual Stones with me. As long as you need it, you can come and take it anytime in the future!¡± ¡°Alright!¡± Lu Wenwen smiled happily, but in reality, she did not think of taking any Spiritual Stones. After all, these things were too precious, and she was not greedy. On the way back, they were not in a hurry either. Along the way, they picked some mushrooms and wild fruits from the mountains. It was almost noon when the three of them finally returned home. When they reached home, Yang Guang saw that his sister-in-law¡¯s expression was not quite right, so he hurriedly asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°You guys are finally back. Something happened at home just now. Yingxue was injured!¡± Wu Xiaolian said. Yang Guang became anxious when he heard that. ¡°What happened? Where is she?¡± ¡°You weren¡¯t at home, so Xu Ling called the emergency department. She was brought to the town.¡± Wu Xiaolian added, ¡°It was so scary. A man dressed in black suddenly rushed into the house. When he entered, he drew his knife. Fortunately, Yingxue hid in time. Otherwise, her arm would have been cut off!¡± ¡°F*ck, where is that person?¡± Yang Guang exploded on the spot when he heard that and could not contain his anger! Lu Wenwen was also shocked when she heard that and subconsciously clenched her fists. ¡°The person was seriously injured and was taken away by Sir Hu and the others!¡± Wu Xiaolian said. ¡°Oh?¡± Yang Guang was originally extremely angry. When he heard that the person had been captured, he hurriedly asked, ¡°What happened? How did that person get injured?¡± ¡°It was Little Guang¡­¡± Wu Xiaolian¡¯s eyes were still a little confused. She continued, ¡°For some reason, Little Guang suddenly turned into a big dog. It pounced on the man and almost bit off his neck!¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Yang Guang was stunned. He turned around and looked around. He did not see Little Guang, so he quickly asked, ¡°Then where did it go?¡± ¡°It bit the man in black and ran out. It has not come back yet,¡± Wu Xiaolian said. ¡°¡­¡± Yang Guang was speechless. He turned around and looked at Mu Xiaowan and Lu Wenwen. Both of them were a little confused. ¡°Forget it. Let¡¯s go to the town first!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Okay, take my car!¡± Mu Xiaowan nodded and quickly went back to her room to take the keys. ¡°Sister-in-law, you should come along too. Bring Yaya along!¡± Yang Guang was worried that there would be another accident at home, so he quickly said. Wu Xiaolian wanted to follow, so she nodded and went back to her room to carry the sleeping child. Everyone set off in a hurry and soon they arrived at the hospital in Hongqi Town. When they arrived, they found that Qi Yingxue had already bandaged her wound and was in the ward. Xu Ling sat beside her. When she saw Yang Guang, she quickly stood up. ¡°You guys are finally here.¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t expect so many things to happen!¡± Yang Guang said and turned to look at Qi Yingxue. ¡°Sis, how¡¯s your wound?¡± ¡°There was a wound. The doctor has already helped me suture it.¡± Qi Yingxue smiled gently, but there was still some lingering fear in her eyes. Yang Guang¡¯s heart ached as he looked at her, but he didn¡¯t know what to say. Seeing this, Xu Ling hurriedly said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. It¡¯s already been sutured, and it¡¯s also been treated with tetanus injection. She can go home later!¡± As she said this, she suddenly changed the topic. ¡°Oh, Sister Yingxue is most worried about leaving a scar on her arm. Can you solve this matter?¡± ¡°Yes, I can!¡± Yang Guang hurriedly nodded and then said to Qi Yingxue, ¡°Sister, don¡¯t be afraid. I¡¯ll get some ointment to apply on you later, so there won¡¯t be a scar!¡± ¡°That¡¯s great. Otherwise, I won¡¯t dare to wear half-sleeved clothes in the future!¡± Qi Yingxue said with a smile. Everyone saw that Yang Guang¡¯s eyes were red. It wasn¡¯t because he was so anxious that he was about to cry, but because he was angry! Though he was used to being joyful most of the time, everyone knew that he was also a person with a temper at the critical moment. Therefore, in order to appease them, Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling both put on relaxed expressions. ¡°Yang Guang, go and check how much we need to pay!¡± Wu Xiaolian said. ¡°Oh, right, I¡¯ll go now!¡± Yang Guang nodded and turned to walk out of the room. He had just walked out a few steps when he heard footsteps behind him. He turned around and saw Lu Wenwen following him, so he asked, ¡°Are you coming with me?¡± ¡°No, I¡¯m going to the police station to ask about the situation. The man in black that sister-in-law mentioned must be a member of Dark Soul. I want to find out more from him!¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°I¡¯ll go with you later!¡± Yang Guang narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice. ¡°Better don¡¯t. With you like this, I¡¯m afraid that you¡¯ll beat him to death before I can ask him anything!¡± Lu Wenwen smiled and continued, ¡°Brother, don¡¯t worry. Evil people will definitely not be forgiven. That person won¡¯t have a good ending either. We will avenge for Sister Yingxue!¡± ¡°Then don¡¯t be in a hurry to go. After I pay the fees, it¡¯s better for everyone to go together. Then, we can go home together!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Alright!¡± Lu Wenwen thought for a moment and followed him to the checkout counter on the first floor. The suturing and bandaging cost a total of more than 200 yuan. Yang Guang didn¡¯t care about this little bit of money. What he cared about was that Qi Yingxue had suffered a lot of physical pain. So after paying the money, he quickly went upstairs. When he entered the door, he happened to see Dr. Hu. At this time, he was talking excitedly as he told Qi Yingxue how careful he was and how serious he was when suturing, trying to avoid leaving a scar that would be too obvious! Yang Guang came in and met his eyes. Dr. Hu was stunned. ¡°Hey, why are you here?¡± ¡°Can¡¯t I come?¡± Yang Guang glared at him and said, ¡°Don¡¯t talk nonsense here. If you can¡¯t do it well, I¡¯ll have to clean it up for you!¡± ¡°What do you mean?¡± Dr. Hu was a little confused and asked in surprise. Yang Guang rolled his eyes. ¡°If you don¡¯t suture it well, there will definitely be scars. I would need to clear the scar for her.. Otherwise, how can Sister Yingxue wear short-sleeved clothes?¡± Chapter 121 - The Hero Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Hearing that, Dr. Hu stared at Yang Guang with his eyes wide open and asked, ¡°What do you mean? You can treat scars?¡± ¡°Of course. It¡¯s a piece of cake for me!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°TSK, some people just like boasting. If you can do it, I¡¯ll respect you as my teacher!¡± Dr. Hu said. Yang Guang did not have time to tangle with him. When he heard that, he nodded and said, ¡°Okay, since you have said it, I¡¯ll come back for you later. Then I¡¯ll call everyone here to witness you calling me teacher!¡± ¡°But what if you can¡¯t do it?¡± Dr. Hu took it seriously as he squinted at Yang Guang and asked. Looking at him, Yang Guang said, ¡°I¡¯ll do whatever you tell me to do!¡± ¡°Alright!¡± Dr. Hu sneered and said, ¡°I just have one requirement, which is that you have to close your business and stop being a doctor in Qingshan Village if you fail to get the scars cleared!¡± ¡°No Problem!¡± Yang Guang nodded his head and said to Qi yingxue, ¡°Yingxue, let¡¯s get out of here if there¡¯s nothing else. We have to go to the police station later and then go home to treat your wound.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Qi yingxue nodded and stood up. ¡°Hey, Yang Guang, when will you come back next time?¡± Dr. Hu chased after them and asked. ¡°I¡¯ll come to you in three days!¡± Yang Guang said as he walked without turning his head. ¡°Then I¡¯ll wait for you for three days!¡± Dr. Hu sneered, ¡°Don¡¯t go back on your word then. Let¡¯s wait and see. You¡¯ll close your business!¡± Yang Guang ignored him. They went downstairs together and got in the car. As Mu Xiaowan started the car, she gritted her teeth and said, ¡°When I see that guy later, I¡¯ll definitely kill him!¡± ¡°Xiaowan, don¡¯t make a fuss. I just got Yang Guang to calm down. Don¡¯t worry, that guy is not gonna end well!¡± Lu Wenwen hurriedly said. As Mu Xiaowan drove away from the hospital, she turned back and glanced at her. ¡°What? Can you kill that guy?¡± ¡°People from Dark Soul usually have committed murder. Once the case on him is found out, he will definitely not survive!¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°That¡¯s Good.¡± Mu Xiaowan drove the car as she clenched her teeth and said, ¡°It seems that those people from Dark Soul really disregard the law. Is there anything they don¡¯t dare to do?¡± Lu Wenwen smiled at what she said, not saying anything. Later, they arrived at the police station. Everyone got out of the car. Then, Xu Ling took them to find Hu Jian. It turned out that the man in black was a serious criminal and had already been taken away by the police of the County Bureau. They had only gone for a few minutes. Yang Guang and Mu Xiaowan were both upset about it. They regretted that they had come late. Lu Wenwen said something to soothe them. Then they left the police station, heading back to Qingshan village. When they reached the village entrance, Yang Guang got out of the car first and went to the clinic to get some medicinal herbs. He also bought two cartons of milk at the snack bar. As soon as he got home, Yang Guang immediately went to his room to get busy. It was not until three o¡¯clock in the afternoon that Yang Guang came out of his room with a bottle of milky white sticky ointment in his hand. Mu Xiaowan was curious. She took it over and sniffed it. ¡°Why does it smell like Milk?¡± ¡°This is my special formula. It¡¯s used to dilute the ointment!¡± Yang Guang smiled and said to Qi yingxue, ¡°Yingxue, take off the gauze. I¡¯ll reapply the ointment for you.¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Out of trust in Yang Guang, Qi Yingxue nodded without saying a word. Then, with the careful help of everyone, she took off the gauze, revealing the wound that was covered with medicinal powder. The suture was shocking. Everyone frowned when they saw it. Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°Does it hurt?¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay.¡± Qi yingxue smiled and said, ¡°Maybe the anesthetic hasn¡¯t worn off yet. I just feel a little bit painful now.¡± ¡°Then bear with it. I¡¯ll try to be gentler.¡± Yang Guang took a piece of alcohol cotton and carefully wiped the wound a few times. The alcohol stimulated her nerves. Qi Yingxue¡¯s brows immediately furrowed as she gently gritted her teeth. Yang Guang quickly removed the powder that Dr. Hu had applied and removed the sutures as well. Then, he applied the ointment that he had prepared to Qi Yingxue. Feeling cool and refreshing, Qi Yingxue raised her head. ¡°It felt cool and comfortable!¡± ¡°Yes, there¡¯s borneol in the ointment. Don¡¯t worry. Once you have put this on, your wound will heal quickly, and there won¡¯t be any scars left!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°That¡¯s great! Thank you!¡± Qi Yingxue said. Yang Guang smiled. ¡°I¡¯m sorry. You got hurt all because of me.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t mention it. None of us expected that they would dare to break into houses in broad daylight!¡± Qi Yingxue said gently. ¡°Exactly! Dark Soul is too arrogant!¡± Mu Xiaowan said angrily. Yang Guang helped Qi Yingxue to bandage her wound. Then, he sat down and said, ¡°It¡¯s just weird. Why do those people keep coming to me? I didn¡¯t take anything from them. Do they have to come continuously, even not caring to die?¡± Lu Wenwen had told everyone about what happened in the mountain while they were on their way. Only then did Qi yingxue know that they had met the men in black again in the mountain. Hearing what Yang Guang said, Xu Ling revealed a look of reminiscence as she said, ¡°Did they come to take revenge? Although it makes sense, I don¡¯t think that¡¯s the case. Why did two more people come again after the first mute had failed?¡± ¡°Yeah, but we didn¡¯t take anything from them. Do they have to badger with us endlessly?¡± Yang Guang scratched his head, looking puzzled. At this time, Lu Wenwen looked at everyone and sighed. ¡°Let me tell you. The reason why they keep coming is to find the bronze token!¡± ¡°What¡¯s that used for?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°It¡¯s not of much use to us. But to Dark Soul, it¡¯s their special token. It seems to have a great symbolic meaning!¡± Lu Wenwen said, then continued, ¡°I don¡¯t know what exactly it stands for, but it must be very important!¡± ¡°But it has been taken by Mr. Hu! Why do they keep coming to me?¡± Yang Guang said agonizingly. ¡°They don¡¯t know yet. I¡¯ll report it to my superior later. Once we spread the news out, those people will probably not come again!¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°I¡¯m not afraid of them. If they come, I¡¯ll just kill them. But it makes me seem like I¡¯m addicted to killing people!¡± Yang Guang was helpless and shook his head with a bitter smile. While they were talking, Mu Xiaowan glanced outside the courtyard. Then she said in surprise, ¡°Ah, our hero is back!¡± Seeing the round ball running in from the entrance, the girls immediately ran out to welcome it. Although Qi Yingxue was injured, she ran out quickly like everyone else. Little Guang was already in its original form. Mu Xiaowan, who was the fastest, came up to it and directly picked it up. ¡°You little thing is so powerful. I heard that you can transform?¡± Little Guang could not move as it was carried, so it stuck out its tongue to lick her hand. ¡°At first, we all thought that we were mistaken, but think about it now, Little Guang seemed to have inflated back then and instantly turned into a big black dog. It¡¯s awesome!¡± Xu Ling said.. Chapter 122 - Miraculous Effects Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio As for Little Guang¡¯s transformation, everyone found it hard to believe. Mu Xiaowan carried it and checked up and down, but she didn¡¯t find out anything special about this little fellow. However, Wu Xiaolian, Xu Ling, and Qi Yingxue had all seen its transformation. The three of them couldn¡¯t lie to everyone at the same time. Therefore, Yang Guang and the others could only believe that this little wolf cub that was taken back from the mountain actually had some special abilities. Unfortunately, no matter how they tried, even by showing Little Guang its favorite bones, it did not transform again. Later, Wu Xiaolian cooked sumptuous dishes in order to cheer everyone up. There were fish, meat, and some delicious vegetables, making up a big meal. After dinner, Yang Guang dawdled, not feeling like leaving. In the end, Mu Xiaowan said to him, ¡°Go back and rest! Lu Wenwen is at home with me, and everything will be fine!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. The Dark Soul has lost five of their men here. They don¡¯t have so many people to send. So, there will definitely be no more people coming. Don¡¯t Worry!¡± Lu Wenwen said. Yang Guang didn¡¯t want to leave. Worrying about their safety was only one reason. There were other reasons! He was just shy to say it out loud. In front of everyone, he could only smile. ¡°Alright, then I¡¯ll go back now.¡± After saying that, he turned around and left home, returning to the greenhouse. Lying on the bed, he took out his phone and sent a message to Mu Xiaowan. ¡°Xiaowan, you¡¯re going back tomorrow, right?¡± About ten minutes later, Mu Xiaowan replied, ¡°Yeah, didn¡¯t I tell you? Tomorrow is the weekend.¡± Yang Guang sighed. ¡°Can you stay?¡± Mu Xiaowan replied straightforwardly, ¡°No!¡± Yang Guang did not want her to leave. Fortunately, Mu Xiaowan sent another message soon, ¡°You silly, it¡¯s not like we can¡¯t see each other again after I return to the county. If you miss me, just come to visit me!¡± ¡°Great! Then it¡¯s a deal!¡± Yang Guang immediately perked up and quickly replied. After that, Mu Xiaowan did not reply to him anymore. He did not receive any message from her even the next morning. After washing up, Yang Guang returned home. When he saw Qi yingxue, he asked, ¡°Yingxue, how do you feel today?¡± ¡°It felt a little numb and itchy last night. But I didn¡¯t feel it any longer when I woke up in the morning,¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Then you¡¯re recovered.¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°Remove the gauze and take a look.¡± ¡°Really? That soon?¡± Qi Yingxue was a little surprised and asked in curiosity. ¡°Believe me. It is that soon!¡± Yang Guang smiled and pulled her to sit down under a tree. Seeing this, everyone ran over and focused their attention on her. When the gauze was removed, the girls saw that the wound on Qi Yingxue¡¯s arm had indeed healed. There was only a shallow mark on it, but it was obviously not a scar. ¡°This mark will disappear after a few days, but it won¡¯t be too long. It will soon be the same as before,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Oh my God, you really have amazing medical skills, don¡¯t you?¡± Among the crowd, Lu Wenwen was the only one who had never seen Yang Guang¡¯s medical skills. Now she saw the miraculous effect of his ointment, she was instantly stunned. ¡°Of course I do! I am a wonderful doctor!¡± Yang Guang started to show off again as he said with a beaming face. Lu Wenwen nodded and continued, ¡°Yang Guang, since you have such amazing medical skills, why not make good use of it?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t think so. After all, I can¡¯t cure all the suffering people in the world by myself,¡± said Yang Guang. ¡°But you can have your ointment mass-produced to help others!¡± Lu Wenwen smiled and said, ¡°Since it can reach such a magical effect, many people will wish for it!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Yang Guang, you can provide a formula for a pharmaceutical factory to produce it!¡± said Qi Yingxue. Yang Guang knew their intentions, but he shook his head with a bitter smile, saying, ¡°Forget it. This ointment isn¡¯t something that can be made easily. There¡¯s a very important part to make it so that it can¡¯t be mass-produced at a pharmaceutical factory at all.¡± ¡°What Part?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. ¡°I have to make it myself!¡± Yang Guang said. Mu Xiaowan was speechless. ¡°Think about it. How many ointments can I make by myself even if I don¡¯t rest for a whole day?¡± Yang Guang continued to ask. ¡°Alright. It seems that only a few people can use this stuff. I¡¯ll take some and put it in my purse later.¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°I want some too!¡± Xu Ling and Lu Wenwen said at the same time. Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°You don¡¯t have any scars on you, right?¡± Hearing that, Mu Xiaowan glared at him and asked, ¡°How did you know?¡± ¡°Uh, I just guessed.¡± Yang Guang smiled awkwardly. Lu Wenwen smiled and said, ¡°Indeed, we don¡¯t have any. But we definitely have to keep some ointment with us. It¡¯s so powerful. What if we need it in the future?¡± ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll make more later!¡± Yang Guang nodded. His promise instantly made everyone happy. After a lively day, it was already past three in the afternoon. Qi Yingxue and Mu Xiaowan were ready to leave. Although Yang Guang and the others don¡¯t want them to leave, they understand the two of them had something to do. Therefore, Yang Guang, Wu Xiaolian, and the others bid farewell to them and watched them drive away. Yang Guang could finally sleep back in the house, but Mu Xiaowan¡¯s departure made him feel empty in his heart. Therefore, he was not that happy. Lu Wenwen was not leaving for the time being. She would stay here for a few more days. After all, the matter of Dark Soul hadn¡¯t been completely settled yet. In the evening, Hu Jian arrived at Yang Guang¡¯s house in the police car. After entering the courtyard, he laughed loudly and said, ¡°Yang Guang, I¡¯m here to congratulate you!¡± ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Yang Guang was startled and quickly asked. ¡°The man in black who was captured confessed and gave us many details about Dark Soul. Their members have all been put on the wanted list and they will all be brought to justice very soon!¡± Hu Jian said. ¡°That¡¯s good news! These guys have been committing crimes. They should have been arrested long ago!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°That¡¯s right. You¡¯ve helped a lot in this case. I¡¯m here on behalf of the County Bureau to send you a thank-you letter!¡± Hu Jian took out an envelope from his pocket as he said. Seeing the thin envelope, Yang Guang was a little disappointed. Then he asked, ¡°So, there¡¯s only a thank-you letter and nothing else?¡± ¡°Oh, I knew you would ask this.¡± Hu Jian smiled and continued, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m already applying for the cash reward for you. I¡¯ll send it to you personally when I receive the payment.¡± Yang Guang¡¯s eyes lit up when he heard about the cash reward. ¡°Well, how much is the reward? Is it a big number?¡± ¡°That¡¯s a secret for now!¡± Hu Jian smiled and stuffed the envelope into his hand. ¡°Alright, it¡¯s time for me to leave. I¡¯m not going to disturb you guys tonight.¡± ¡°Why don¡¯t you stay and have dinner with us?¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°No, thanks. See you later!¡± Hu Jian smiled and turned around to leave. As soon as he left, Lu Wenwen came out of the house and said with a sad look, ¡°Yang Guang, I¡¯m leaving too.¡± ¡°Ah? Didn¡¯t you say that you would stay for a few more days?¡± Yang Guang was stunned for a moment and quickly asked. ¡°I just received an order and I have a new mission to carry out. I have to go to the county tomorrow morning.¡± Lu Wenwen said.. Chapter 123 - The Separation Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Although Lu Wenwen hadn¡¯t spent much time with them together, everyone liked her for her lively and cheerful personality. Therefore, when they heard that she was leaving, Xu Ling and Wu Xiaolian were both a little sad. Yang Guang was upset as well. After hearing what she said, he smiled bitterly and asked, ¡°When you¡¯re gone, will you not be able to come again for a long time?¡± ¡°Not necessarily. I usually don¡¯t have many tasks. When I¡¯m free, I will definitely come back to visit you guys.¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°Okay, you are always welcome at my house!¡± Yang Guang nodded and said. They finished the dinner in a depressing atmosphere. After Lu Wenwen left, the house would not be as lively as before. After cleaning up the dishes, Lu Wenwen suddenly said to Yang Guang, ¡°Yang Guang, there¡¯s something I need to talk to you about.¡± ¡°Go ahead.¡± Yang Guang looked at her and said. ¡°Let¡¯s talk privately in the room.¡± Lu Wenwen turned to enter the room as she said this. Seeing that, Xu Ling and Wu Xiaolian were stunned and couldn¡¯t help but look at each other. Yang Guang was also a little confused. He followed Lu Wenwen into the room and then asked, ¡°What¡¯s the matter? Why do we keep it from them?¡± Lu Wenwen looked at him with a burning gaze. ¡°Yang Guang, I can tell that you¡¯re not an ordinary person. I have a conjecture. You¡¯re a cultivator, right?¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Being stunned, Yang Guang scratched his head and asked, ¡°What¡¯s a cultivator?¡± ¡°It refers to people who have different physical abilities from others. There¡¯s a spiritual force in their body.¡± Lu Wenwen explained. ¡°I don¡¯t know what exactly spiritual force is, but as you said, there is indeed a special energy in my body.¡± Yang Guang nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. I know this is your biggest secret. Sister-in-law and Xu Ling don¡¯t seem to know. That¡¯s why I asked you to come in.¡± Lu Wenwen said and then continued, ¡°To tell you the truth, I¡¯m also a cultivator, and I¡¯m at the Hidden Force Realm currently. I can attach the spiritual force in my body to my attacks and cause great damages to my enemies in this way.¡± Yang Guang gave her an understanding look. Then, he shook his head and said, ¡°I don¡¯t know what realm I¡¯m in. I¡¯m just doing it casually.¡± He was a cultivator of the Method of Divine Farmer, and it was probably not the same thing with the Hidden Force Realm that Lu Wenwen had told him. Although Lu Wenwen had been honest with him, Yang Guang did not mention anything about the Method of Divine Farmer. ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. I have a small booklet here. You can keep it and read it. In addition, it¡¯s a waste to put the Spiritual Stones away. Why don¡¯t you use them when you¡¯re cultivating? Then, you can increase your strength soon!¡± As Lu Wenwen said this, she took out a small booklet with only a dozen pages from her pocket. Yang Guang took it and felt it still warm. He was very touched and said, ¡°Thank you. You¡¯ve helped me a lot.¡± ¡°You¡¯re welcome. I know you¡¯re a good person. It will benefit our country if there are more cultivators like you!¡± Lu Wenwen stuck out her tongue and continued, ¡°Alright, let¡¯s stop talking here. Otherwise, sister-in-law and Xu Ling will misunderstand us.¡± Then, she turned around and ran out in a hurry. Yang Guang stood still and sniffed the booklet in his hand. Not only was it warm, but it also carried a faint fragrance of the young girl. He was instantly a little stunned. When night fell, Wu Xiaolian and the others went back to their rooms to sleep. Yang Guang opened the booklet in his room and began to study it carefully. From the beginning to the end, it turned out that the cultivation method mentioned in the book was almost the same as the Method of Divine Farmer. The only thing that Yang Guang had learned was the so-called division of the levels of cultivators. There were seven or eight levels in total, from the beginning to the highest level of the God-like Stage. Yang Guang was not very interested in these, so he skimmed through them. However, he had learned another thing. There was a method of cultivating through Spirit Stones in the booklet. It said that he could absorb the spiritual energy in the stones into the body and then transform it into a spiritual force that could be used freely. Yang Guang was quite interested in this part, so he immediately took out the Spirit Stones he had collected, found the smallest one, and placed it in front of him. He closed his eyes to circulate the energy in his body and soon entered a state of selflessness. Then, Yang Guang felt a rush of spiritual energy! The night passed quickly. The next morning, Yang Guang exhaled the turbid air in his chest and abdomen, picked up the Spirit Stone, and felt it. As a result, he realized that the amount he had absorbed last night was less than one percent of what was stored inside the stone. Yang Guang thought to himself, ¡°Lord, it would take me a few months to use such a small one. Then, wouldn¡¯t it take me a lifetime to use all the other large stones?¡± Actually, there was a misunderstanding that he did not expect. Yang Guang¡¯s current cultivation was in the beginner stage, so he did not need much spiritual energy. Yet, As his cultivation level increased in the future, he would need more and more spiritual energy. After putting away the Spiritual Stones, Yang Guang stood up. He felt refreshed all over his body and limbs. That was so comfortable! He stretched and went to the yard, seeing that the breakfast was ready. Wu Xiaolian got up early to make dumplings specially for Lu Wenwen because Lu Wenwen was leaving today. The dumplings were ready now. ¡°Eat dumplings for separation and noodles for the reunion. I wish you a safe journey with these dumplings.¡± Wu Xiaolian smiled. ¡°Thank you, Xiaolian.¡± Lu Wenwen was touched. Her eyes were red and her voice was a little choked up. Yang Guang found it funny and looked at her. ¡°No way. Do you have to be so touched by eating dumplings?¡± ¡°Of course not. I just suddenly felt the warmth of a family. And I don¡¯t want to leave!¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°Then stay if you don¡¯t want to go. Just quit!¡± Yang Guang smiled. Wu Xiaolian glared at him. ¡°Don¡¯t talk nonsense. How can she quit such a respectable job?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Wenwen is a person who does great things!¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Actually, I can¡¯t quit my job even if I want to.¡± Lu Wenwen smiled bitterly and immediately changed the topic. ¡°Okay, let¡¯s not talk about this. Thank you for taking care of me these days. When I¡¯m free, I¡¯ll definitely come back and stay for a few more days.¡± ¡°Great, you¡¯re welcome anytime!¡± Wu Xiaolian smiled and picked a dumpling for her. ¡°Eat it before it gets cold.¡± Later, it came to the time when they had to say goodbye. After breakfast, Lu Wenwen packed her things and got into the car reluctantly. Obviously, she was very fond of this home. Although she had not lived for long, she had already fallen in love with this place. After her car drove away, Wu Xiaolian sighed slightly. ¡°Wenwen may have entered the army since she was young. Then she became a police officer. So, she has never had much of family life.¡± ¡°I think so. She really doesn¡¯t want to leave.¡± Xu Ling nodded and then sighed. ¡°But this is life. How can a person get everything he wants!¡± When Yang Guang heard that, he thought to himself, ¡°I don¡¯t care about others, but I must achieve what I want in my life.. Otherwise, what would I use my abilities for?¡± Chapter 124 - Argument Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The guests at home all left, and Yang Guang¡¯s life returned to normal. The vegetables in his greenhouse were growing very well as he watered them every day. However, Yang Guang was a little dissatisfied. He felt that the speed of the vegetables¡¯ growth was still too slow. Because Yang Guang knew that he would have a chance to meet Mu Xiaowan and Qi Yingxue when the vegetables were ready for sale. As the vegetables grew, there was more work to do in the greenhouse. Yang Guang could not cope with it, so he prepared to hire workers. The news about Yang Guang hiring workers quickly spread. More than 10 women in the village came to him. It was the off-season from farming. The women stayed at home all day and earned nothing. Therefore, they thought it was good to come here to make some money. The women walked to the greenhouse as they chattered. Yang Guang was stunned when he saw them. He only wanted to hire four people. Hence, seeing that so many people came, Yang Guang did not know what to do. The women were all his neighbors. It was hard for him to decide who he should hire. ¡°Yang Guang, you are pretty successful now. You even start to hire workers.¡± Mrs. Niu said with a smile. Yang Guang scratched his head. ¡°I wouldn¡¯t say I am already successful. It¡¯s just that I can¡¯t do all the work by myself.¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay. We are here to help you. Don¡¯t worry about that,¡± Mrs. Niu said. ¡°Well, it¡¯s good that you guys come to help me. But I don¡¯t need this many people,¡± Yang Guang replied. He thought for a moment and had an idea. ¡°How about this? I will prepare some sticks and then you guys can draw lots to decide who should stay. And don¡¯t worry if you cannot stay this time. I will definitely hire you next time I have more work for you to do.¡± The women looked at each other. They didn¡¯t know what to say, so they just nodded. Soon, Yang Guang found more than 10 wooden sticks. Some were long and some were short. Yang Guang held the sticks in his hand and everybody started to draw lots. In the end, Mrs. Niu and the other three women got to stay. Seeing that the others looked disappointed, Yang Guang quickly said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. There is going to be a road project here. When the time comes, the project will need workers. You shall all have work to do then.¡± Hearing this, the other women were happy and turned around to go home. Yang Guang turned back to look at Mrs. Niu and said to her, ¡°Mrs. Niu, the work in the greenhouse is quite similar to the work in your vegetable garden. Therefore, I don¡¯t need to tell you what to do. You can just do as you see fit.¡± ¡°Sure. However, Yang Guang, we need to make a deal. Since you hired us to work here, it has to be a long-term thing. As long as your greenhouse exists, you need to let us work here,¡± Mrs. Niu said. ¡°That¡¯s not a problem. As long as you don¡¯t skive, I will let you work here.¡± Yang Guang nodded happily. ¡°I knew that you were a kind person. You will have a bright future for sure!¡± Mrs. Niu was satisfied and said cheerfully. After allocating work to Mrs. Niu and the others, Yang Guang was free. He did not stay and watch Mrs. Niu and the others do their job because he trusted them. Instead, Yang Guang said a few words and went home. He intended to go to the back of the mountain to see if Tianma was growing well. However, Yang Guang saw a car drive into the village headquarters from afar. Yang Guang was stunned for a moment. He wondered if it was someone from the city coming to look for Sister Ling. Who could it be? After some thinking, Yang Guang turned around and walked towards the village headquarters. When Yang Guang reached the courtyard, the person in the car already entered the village headquarters. He could hear two voices arguing, coming from inside. It was Xu Ling and a man who were fighting. As Yang Guang heard it, he pushed the door open without hesitation. ¡°Sister Ling, what¡¯s wrong?¡± Xu Ling and the man in the room were shocked. Then, the man looked Yang Guang up and down and asked, ¡°Who are you?¡± ¡°I¡¯m a doctor in the village, Yang Guang. Who are you?¡± Yang Guang inquired. ¡°Doctor?¡± The man sneered and shot Yang Guang a disgusted look. ¡°You¡¯re still wet behind the ears. How dare you say that you are a doctor?¡± ¡°Uncle, Yang Guang is my friend. Please don¡¯t say that,¡± Xu Ling said angrily. Xu Guangcai looked at Xu Ling. ¡°Lingling, you are not bewitched by this brat, are you? Is it because of him that you insist on staying in such a poor and run-down village?¡± ¡°Of course not!¡± Being asked a question like this, Xu Ling blushed and hurriedly shook her head. Xu Guangcai looked at Xu Ling seriously and said. ¡°Lingling, you¡¯re still too young. I¡¯ve seen much of the world in the past 40 years. I can tell from your expression that there¡¯s something going on between you and him.¡± After saying that, Xu Guangcai turned to look at Yang Guang, ¡°Do you like Lingling? Young man, give it up. Lingling will not stay in this shabby village.¡± ¡°Uncle, stop it. This has nothing to do with Yang Guang!¡± Xu Ling was a little anxious and said. Yang Guang was curious. He ignored Xu Guangcai and turned to look at Xu Ling, ¡°Sister Ling, what¡¯s going on?¡± ¡°I¡¯m here to take Lingling away. She doesn¡¯t have to do the thankless task of the village secretary anymore because I found her a better job,¡± Xu Guangcai said. Yang Guang was trying to hold back his anger. Nevertheless, when he heard Xu Guangcai¡¯s words, his face turned cold. ¡°Watch what you say. Being the village secretary is not a thankless task. Sister Ling is very respected here.¡± ¡°So What?¡± Xu Guangcai demanded. He rolled his eyes. ¡°The village is so small. Even if Lingling works here for her whole life, she would not be any good. My daughter can make more money than Lingling¡¯s annual salary in one day.¡± Yang Guang was amazed and asked in surprise, ¡°What does your daughter do?¡± ¡°She¡¯s a big star,¡± Xu Guangcai responded. He had a smug look on his face. ¡°My daughter can earn over 20,000 dollars a day.¡± ¡°Really?¡± Yang Guang demanded. He was very shocked when he heard that. After a while, he smiled. ¡°No wonder you¡¯re so arrogant, but Sister Ling isn¡¯t your daughter. I don¡¯t think you have the right to tell her what to do, right?¡± ¡°She¡¯s my niece,¡± Xu Guangcai said loudly. ¡°Even if she¡¯s your daughter, you can¡¯t do that to her!¡± Yang Guang clenched his fists and shouted without backing down. Seeing that Yang Guang and Xu Guangcai began to argue, Xu Ling hurriedly said, ¡°Stop it.¡± ¡°Shh! I don¡¯t care who he is. You have to go with me,¡± Xu Guangcai said to Xu Ling. Yang Guang jeered, ¡°Is that so? Are you going to tie her up if Sister Ling doesn¡¯t go with you?¡± ¡°I¡¯ll call my brother and sister-in-law and ask them to talk to Lingling personally if I have to,¡± Xu Guangcai said. Yang Guang was puzzled when he heard this. Then, he turned to look at Xu Ling. ¡°Sister Ling, is the guy really doing this for your own good or is he up to something else? It seems to me that his intentions are not as good as he says.¡± ¡°Well¡­¡± Xu Ling looked a little awkward and pulled Xu Guangcai, who was angry from being scolded and was about to punch Yang Guang. After that, she said, ¡°My uncle found me a job in the county town. It is a little better than being the village secretary.¡± ¡°Is that it?¡± Yang Guang turned to look at Xu Guangcai. ¡°Your daughter is a big star, but you only found your niece a job in the county town.. Are you so proud of that?¡± Chapter 125 - The Scenic Spots Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xu Guangcai glared at Yang Guang. ¡°My Daughter is working in the entertainment industry. The job I found for Lingling is in the government of the county and it can turn into a permanent one. The ladies in the Xu family have to make their way in the world.¡± Xu Ling furrowed her eyebrows. After all, Xu Guangcai was her uncle and she could not say an unkind word to him. Therefore, Xu Ling had no choice but to speak with a distressed look on her face. ¡°Uncle, stop it. I won¡¯t agree to this.¡± ¡°Lingling, you¡¯re getting more and more disobedient. I wonder what this wild boy did to you.¡± Xu Guangcai¡¯s fingers trembled as he pointed at Xu Ling and then at Yang Guang. Xu Ling¡¯s eyes were red, and she didn¡¯t know what to do. A black sedan drove into the courtyard and stopped at the door. Then, four people got out of the car, including three men and one woman. Xu Guangcai had his back to the window. Hence, he didn¡¯t know what was happening outside. However, Yang Guang saw the woman, and his eyes immediately lit up. The woman was none other than the county commissioner, Li Jinyun. Upon seeing Li Jinyun, Yang Guang chuckled, raised his voice, and asked Xu Guangcai, ¡°You said that Sister Ling couldn¡¯t have a promising future if she stayed in the village, right? Do you really think that she can only make something of herself by working in the county?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. How can you compare a village official to a county official?¡± Xu Guangcai replied. Li Jinyun heard these words as she entered the door. She frowned slightly and coughed, ¡°Who said that?¡± Xu Guangcai was stunned. He turned around to see Li Jinyun and his eyes widened, ¡°County Commissioner Ms. Li, why are you here?¡± Li Jinyun froze for a moment. Then, she carefully looked at the smiling middle-aged man in front of her and asked with doubt, ¡°Do you know me?¡± ¡°County Commissioner Ms. Li, you¡¯re really forgetful. I¡¯m Xu Guangcai from Water Bureau in the county,¡± Xu Guangcai said with a smile and then slightly bent down. ¡°Now I remember.¡± Li Jinyun said, ¡°We met when I went to your bureau for a meeting. You are Section Chief Mr. Xu, right?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right!¡± When the county commissioner said that she recognized Xu Guangcai, he felt honored. After that, Xu Guangcai looked at Yang Guang proudly. However, Yang Guang sneered inwardly, ¡°Don¡¯t be smug. You¡¯ll not be able to smile this happily later.¡± Thinking of this, Yang Guang turned to look at Li Jinyun. ¡°County Commissioner Ms. Li, why are you here?¡± ¡°I¡¯m here to do fieldwork,¡± Li Jinyun answered. She smiled slightly and looked at the three people in the room. ¡°What¡¯s going on here?¡± Yang Guang quickly said, ¡°Here is the thing. Sister Ling is the secretary of the village as well as Section Chief Mr. Xu¡¯s niece. You heard what he said just now, right? Section Chief Mr. Xu is forcing Sister Ling to return to the county.¡± Then, Yang Guang paused a moment and pursed his lips. ¡°I¡¯m okay with that. Nevertheless, once Sister Ling leaves, there will be nobody who can take charge of the work in the scenic spots.¡± Li Jinyun glanced at Yang Guang and saw through him at once. After all, she had been working in the political world for a long time. How could she not know what he was thinking about? Li Jinyun curled up the corners of her mouth. After that, she nodded and said to Xu Guangcai, ¡°Section Chief Mr. Xu, I think what you said just now is wrong.¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Xu Guangcai was a little confused. Then, he thought of what he said and felt a little awkward. It was okay for him to say such things at home, but they were definitely inappropriate to talk about in front of people he barely knew. Xu Guangcai gave a short laugh and explained, ¡°County Commissioner Ms. Li, you misunderstood me. As a matter of fact, it is my elder brother and sister-in-law who want Lingling to live in the county. In that case, it will be more convenient for her to go home.¡± Li Jinyun nodded and then said, ¡°Those college graduates came here to be village officials not long ago, and they did their job pretty well. This is especially true for Xu Ling. She has only been in the village for less than a month, but she already set up a few vegetable greenhouses and found a way for the villagers to get rich. I am very satisfied with her performance.¡± All of a sudden, Li Jinyun changed the topic. She looked at Xu Ling and asked, ¡°Your family wishes for you to return to the county. What do you think about that, Village Secretary Ms. Xu?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t want to leave the village. This place is more suitable for my development. I hope that I can make some achievements in Qingshan Village,¡± Xu Ling said as she bit her lip. ¡°I see,¡± Li Jinyun replied. She nodded and then looked at Xu Guangcai. ¡°Did you hear what your niece said?¡± ¡°Well¡­¡± Xu Guangcai didn¡¯t dare to say anything else. The county commissioner was here. What could he possibly say? If Xu Guangcai continued to say that there was no point in working in the village, Li Jinyun would definitely scold him. ¡°If you have nothing else to do here, you can go back now. We need to have a discussion about the work in the scenic spots.¡± Li Jinyun was clearly asking Xu Guangcai to leave. Xu Guangcai had no choice but to turn around and leave. After he left, Li Jinyun smiled at Xu Ling. ¡°Actually, your uncle was right in a way.¡± ¡°I know that, but I have my own ambitions. I don¡¯t want others to arrange my life,¡± Xu Ling said. Li Jinyun answered, ¡°I see.¡± Li Jinyun looked like she approved of what Xu Ling said. Then, Li Jinyun nodded and said, ¡°I am really impressed you think that way.¡± Xu Ling¡¯s face turned red. She quickly lowered her head and said, ¡°County Commissioner Ms. Li, you flatter me.¡± ¡°All right. Let¡¯s get down to business,¡± Li Jinyun said. She smiled and turned to look at Yang Guang. ¡°Since you¡¯re here, I don¡¯t need to send someone to look for you.¡± ¡°Is there anything you need me to do?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Of course. You¡¯re in charge of the scenic spots. Who else can I discuss with if not you?¡± inquired Li Jinyun. She laughed and went on, ¡°The scenic spots project has been approved, and the government agreed to let our county develop the palace in the mountains. I would like to ask if you have any other ideas.¡± ¡°Yes, I do,¡± Xu Ling quickly said. ¡°Yang Guang and I discussed that before. The palace in the middle of the mountains will not be enough to draw tourists in the long term. Therefore, we are planning to build a resort and tourists can collect mountain products here.¡± Seeing how Xu Ling¡¯s eyes lit up when she mentioned this, Li Jinyun smiled and nodded. ¡°Your idea is very good.¡± Then, Li Jinyun turned to look at the three staff members behind her. ¡°In fact, I¡¯ve been thinking about how to turn your village into the scenic spots these two days. The reason why I brought them here today is to come up with a plan.¡± ¡°That¡¯s great,¡± Xu Ling said. She was surprised when she heard what Li Jinyun said. Xu Ling knew that the people Li Jinyun brought must be professionals. Xu Ling was right. The three staff members introduced themselves. Two studied landscaping, and one learned forestry. ¡°We¡¯re a little late, so we had better hurry up and go to the mountains to take a look. In that way, we can come up with a plan as soon as possible. What do you think?¡± Li Jinyun said. Of course Xu Ling and Yang Guang couldn¡¯t refuse the county commissioner. Hence, they quickly nodded and agreed. Then, everybody left the village headquarters. It was now after 10 o¡¯clock in the morning, and walking around the mountains would take at least two hours, which meant it would be past lunchtime when they got back. Therefore, Yang Guang went home and told his sister-in-law to prepare lunch so that they could have something to eat when they returned. When Wu Xiaolian learned that the county commissioner came, she started to prepare lunch without hesitation.. Chapter 126 - A New Idea Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Li Jinyun and the others entered the mountains. She was very curious about everything in here. As Li Jinyun walked, she kept looking around and her eyes were filled with joy. When Li Jinyun and the others reached somewhere deep inside the mountains, she could smell the fresh air. Li Jinyun could not help but say to Yang Guang, ¡°This is really a good place. If we build a resort here, I believe many people will come over to recuperate.¡± ¡°Yeah. The environment here is indeed very nice. When the resort is built, we can offer tourists some special medications and diets. I am sure it will attract a lot of people to the village.¡± Yang Guang nodded. ¡°Then you will have a lot of projects to develop,¡± Li Jinyun said. She thought for a moment and then asked, ¡°How much money have you prepared for this?¡± Li Jinyun¡¯s question hit the nail on the head. Yang Guang smiled bitterly and scratched his head. ¡°I only have around 40,000 dollars and it¡¯s far from enough.¡± ¡°I see,¡± Li Jinyun said. She nodded and continued, ¡°How about this? You estimate how much money is needed later. I will see if I can help you get a loan. Although it may not be much, the money should be able to address emergency situations.¡± ¡°That¡¯s great. Thank you, County Commissioner Ms. Li,¡± Yang Guang said in surprise. Li Jinyun answered, ¡°You don¡¯t need to thank me. This is what I should do.¡± She smiled and went on, ¡°But you have to get mentally prepared. The loan won¡¯t be much, so you have to keep raising money.¡± ¡°No problem.¡± Yang Guang nodded and thought to himself, ¡°There is no need for me to worry about the money since I have so many skills. I¡¯ll go to cure the rich if I have to.¡± Along the way, the three staff members took a lot of photos and gave some suggestions for building the resort. When Xu Ling and the others arrived at the foot of the mountains, she looked at the rope that led to halfway up the mountains, turned to Li Jinyun, and said, ¡°County Commissioner Ms. Li, the rope will be turned into a rising platform so that tourists can go up and down easily. You¡¯d better not climb up the rope now for it is dangerous.¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay. Don¡¯t think that I¡¯m weak just because I¡¯m wearing glasses. In fact, I¡¯ve been exercising all the time. My body is very healthy,¡± Li Jinyun said with a smile. ¡°I didn¡¯t mean it. It¡¯s just that it¡¯s not early now, and the archaeological team has taken a lot of photos of the palace. I don¡¯t think you need to go up and take a look again,¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Well¡­¡± Li Jinyun thought for a moment and said, ¡°That¡¯s true. To save time, we should go back to plan for the scenic spots now.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Xu Ling nodded with a smile. Then, everyone turned around and began to walk back. When they returned to Qingshan Village, it was already 12:30 and Wu Xiaolian had many dishes prepared. Seeing that the dishes on the table were basically homemade, Li Jinyun nodded and said, ¡°Since Xu Ling and Yang Guang both call you Sister Xiaolian, I will also call you that. Thank you for preparing lunch for us, Sister Xiaolian.¡± Wu Xiaolian had never been treated like this before. She didn¡¯t expect that the county commissioner would call her Sister Xiaolian. Wu Xiaolian felt uneasy and had no idea where to put her hands. ¡°My pleasure, County Commissioner Ms. Li. It is rare that you come to our village in person, of course I have to treat you well. It¡¯s just that the dishes are too simple,¡± Wu Xiaolian said with a red face. Li Jinyun smiled. ¡°I¡¯m glad that the dishes are simple. If you cook a big meal, I won¡¯t dare to eat it.¡± After chatting for a while, Li Jinyun sat down with everyone else. As she tasted the vegetables planted by Yang Guang, surprise flashed in Li Jinyun¡¯s eyes. Then, she asked, ¡°Why are these vegetables so delicious?¡± ¡°Well, there is no pollution in our village, so the vegetables are totally natural. Of course they taste good.¡± Yang Guang couldn¡¯t explain the existence of Spiritual Stone, so he had no choice but to use the good environment as cover. Li Jinyun said, ¡°I¡¯ve been to other villages before, but their vegetables don¡¯t have such a good taste.¡± Then, she looked at the dark green mountains in the distance and sighed, ¡°Qingshan Village is really a good place.¡± ¡°If you like our village, you can come here and hang out often,¡± Yang Guang said to Li Jinyun. Everybody chatted as they ate, and the three professionals talked about their ideas. However, it was useless to just say it. They had to draw a sketch. After lunch, everyone started doing their own work and finished the sketch at four o¡¯clock in the afternoon. In the sketch, a flat asphalt road went straight into the mountains, all the way to the end of the canyon. The grassland that Yang Guang and Xu Ling stayed in before was where the scenic spots administration office, the tourist center, and other service facilities were. As for the mountain forests on both sides, it was not difficult for them to recover even though they experienced a fire. The forests would grow back quickly once they were irrigated by water soaked in Spiritual Stone. Yang Guang chose two-story-high detached villas for the design of the resort. The villas would be built from the mountain gate all the way to the foot of the mountains. There would be a distance of about 160 miles between each villa, and it should not be a problem to build more than 40 villas on both sides of the valley. As everyone talked about how to build the scenic spots, Yang Guang and Xu Ling were so excited that they completely forgot about the time. It was not until Li Jinyun looked at the time and found it was getting late that she hurriedly interrupted everyone¡¯s discussion. ¡°All right. Let¡¯s call it a day. When we go back, we¡¯ll make a detailed plan and a quote. I¡¯ll contact you once everything is done.¡± ¡°Okay,¡± Yang Guang said. Yang Guang knew that he couldn¡¯t persuade Li Jinyun and the staff members to stay, so he continued, ¡°We¡¯ll wait for the good news from you then.¡± After saying that, Yang Guang suddenly remembered the road construction. ¡°When will the road be built?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry. Traffic Authority is preparing for it. I go back today. Tomorrow, they¡¯ll send people over to survey the route,¡± said Li Jinyun. ¡°That¡¯s great!¡± Yang Guang nodded and felt relieved. Li Jinyun left with the staff members. Yang Guang was extremely excited when he thought about the fact that he was about to achieve great things. Then, he gave Qi Yingxue a call. On the one hand, it was to tell her the good news. On the other hand, Yang Guang suddenly had an idea and couldn¡¯t wait to chat with Qi Yingxue about it. After Qi Yingxue picked up the phone, Yang Guang first told her that the county commissioner came to the village and then said, ¡°Sister Xue, I have an idea!¡± ¡°Go ahead,¡± Qi Yingxue said gently. ¡°Since the village will develop on a large scale and build a resort, I think you can open an ecological restaurant in Qingshan village,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Well¡­¡± Qi Yingxue heard it and pondered for a moment before saying, ¡°That¡¯s a good idea. But is there any space for me to open a restaurant?¡± ¡°Of course there is. Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ll definitely reserve the best spot for you!¡± Yang Guang said. Qi Yingxue smiled. ¡°But I prepared to keep the money for you to develop the scenic spots. If I¡¯m going to open a restaurant here, I am afraid it will cost a lot of money.¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. I know how to earn money. You don¡¯t have to keep it for me.¡± Qi Yingxue was stunned and quickly asked, ¡°How are you going to make money?¡± Chapter 127 - Trouble Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang chuckled. ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about that. No matter how much money I lack, I¡¯ll be able to earn it.¡± Qi Yingxue was lost for words. Although she really believed in Yang Guang¡¯s ability, what he said was a little too boastful. Therefore, she said after a while, ¡°Stop talking nonsense. Don¡¯t tell me that you want to do something illegal.¡± ¡°No, I won¡¯t. Just trust me. I will definitely get the money,¡± Yang Guang said seriously. Hearing this, Qi Yingxue could do nothing but nod. ¡°It¡¯s best if you can get the money. Even if it¡¯s not enough, I¡¯ll help you with that.¡± ¡°Thank you.¡± Yang Guang smiled and chatted with Qi Yingxue for a while before hanging up. In the evening, Xu Ling and Yang Guang sat in the courtyard after dinner and chatted. They talked about what happened during the day. Yang Guang looked at Xu Ling and asked, ¡°Sister Ling, is your uncle¡¯s daughter really a celebrity?¡± ¡°Yeah.¡± Xu Ling nodded. ¡°My cousin used to be a singer-songwriter. Later, one of her songs became famous and she was well-known. Now, she is preparing to enter the film industry.¡± Yang Guang said, ¡°Wow!¡± Then, he asked, ¡°I don¡¯t understand. Why did your uncle insist that you go back to the county?¡± ¡°It¡¯s a long story.¡± Xu Ling sighed and went on, ¡°Actually, it¡¯s not his fault. My uncle is doing this for the Xu family.¡± After a while, Yang Guang finally got the whole story. It turned out that the Xu family was divided into several branches. Xu Ling¡¯s grandfather had three brothers, and his brothers each had four or five children. Only Xu Ling¡¯s grandfather had two children. If all the people in the Xu family were added together, there were more than fifty people in this big family. Xu Ling¡¯s grandfather only had two children, and her parents¡¯ generation was awfully competitive. In addition, Xu Guangcai and Xu Guangsheng both had a daughter, so they would always be ridiculed by others in every family reunion. Xu Guangcai was a petty man. He could not stand others¡¯ contempt. Hence, he vowed to let his daughter and niece both stand out. After listening to all this, Yang Guang smacked his lips and smiled bitterly. ¡°I really don¡¯t understand the world of adults. Can¡¯t they just live their own life? Why do they have to compare themselves with others?¡± Xu Ling shrugged her shoulders, ¡°I don¡¯t understand either. There¡¯s really no point in doing this.¡± ¡°Exactly!¡± Yang Guang nodded, ¡°No matter how good one looks, that¡¯s just on the surface. Those people think that they¡¯re better than your family, but I believe they all have something that they don¡¯t want others to know.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± Xu Ling looked at Yang Guang, smiled, and said, ¡°They are just immersed in their own world. They think that others will not know what is going on in their family as long as they look good. However, it doesn¡¯t work that way.¡± ¡°How boring it is!¡± Yang Guang shook his head, then looked up at the starry sky, ¡°If it were me, I wouldn¡¯t care about what others say. They can say whatever they want and it won¡¯t do me any harm.¡± Xu Ling chuckled and looked at him with a smile. ¡°You are young, but you have a big heart.¡± ¡°You are right,¡± Yang Guang raised his eyebrows and said with a grin. After chatting for a while, Xu Ling thought that Wu Xiaolian might have fallen asleep with the child, so Xu Ling got up and said, ¡°All right. It¡¯s late. You should go to bed.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Yang Guang nodded and watched her return to her room. Then, he went to close the door of the courtyard and walked back to his room. After closing the door, Yang Guang took out the Spiritual Stone that he used for meditating and began to absorb spiritual energy. The next day, a yellow pickup truck came to the village and parked in the courtyard of the village headquarters. The villagers were curious about it. They asked around and found that the people in the yellow pickup truck were all technicians who came here to build the road. Then, the villagers soon heard about the scenic spots. Not only was the broken cement road from Hongqi Town to Qingshan Village going to be repaired, but the road from the village to the mountains was also going to be built. As this big news spread, everyone was stunned. The villagers suddenly realized that Yang Guang was going to make a fortune. Most of the villagers were just envious of Yang Guang, but there were people who were not happy about that, such as Sun Guoying. As the chief of Qingshan Village, he had almost no authority now. The villagers were more willing to turn to Xu Ling for help and ignored him. Plus, Yang Guang had been doing well recently. Therefore, Sun Guoying felt very uncomfortable. Especially after Sun Guoying heard about the road construction and building of the scenic spots, the anger that he kept aside for a long time was finally ignited. When the technicians entered the mountains to survey the route, Sun Guoying rode on his motorcycle and headed straight for Hongqi Town. In the afternoon, Xu Ling received a phone call. The mayor asked her to go to Hongqi Town and said there was an emergency. Yang Guang was watching the technicians measuring the distance. Nevertheless, when he saw Xu Ling¡¯s anxious look on her face, he quickly ran over and asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong, Sister Ling?¡± ¡°The mayor asked me to go to the town. He said it was an urgent matter and he sounded unhappy,¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Is that so?¡± Yang Guang thought for a moment and said, ¡°Could it be related to the road construction?¡± After that, he pondered and said to Xu Ling, ¡°I¡¯ll go with you.¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need for that. I can go by myself. If it is about the road construction, I will explain it to the mayor,¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°That won¡¯t do. I didn¡¯t see any sign of Sun Guoying. Maybe he¡¯s the one who started this. Let¡¯s go and see what¡¯s going on,¡± Yang Guang said. Then, he reached out to hold Xu Ling¡¯s hand as they walked home. This time, Xu Ling couldn¡¯t refuse Yang Guang. She could only follow him back and then get on the motorcycle. Yang Guang started the motorcycle and left the house. After a bumpy journey, the two of them arrived at the courtyard of the government of Hongqi Town and entered the office together. There were two people in the room. One was the mayor Qi Qingsong, and the other was the secretary Li Jianshe. Both of them had an ugly look on their faces. Seeing that Xu Ling arrived, Qi Qingsong ignored Yang Guang and asked her unhappily, ¡°Village Secretary Ms. Xu, what¡¯s going on with the forests in Qingshan Village?¡± ¡°After getting the villagers¡¯ agreement, I contracted the forests to Yang Guang,¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°He discovered that palace in the mountains when he just got the forests. Is that so?¡± Li Jianshe asked. Xu Ling nodded. ¡°Yeah.¡± Qi Qingsong and Li Jianshe looked at each other. Then, Qi Qingsong looked at Xu Ling. ¡°You¡¯re putting us in a very embarrassing situation by doing this.¡± Xu Ling smiled and replied, ¡°I contracted the forests to Yang Guang legally. Moreover, Yang Guang paid a large sum of money for the forests and I gave it to the villagers.. What do you mean that I put you in a very embarrassing situation?¡± Chapter 128 - Going Into the County Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Li Jianshe nodded. ¡°Well, you are right. But nobody knew that there was such a magical palace in the mountains before. It was a huge loss for us to contract the forests to Yang Guang at that price.¡± Yang Guang had been watching at the side for a while. When he heard this, he couldn¡¯t help but stand out and ask Qi Qingsong and Li Jianshe, ¡°If you have something to say, just say it. What do you want exactly?¡± Qi Qingsong asked, ¡°You must be Yang Guang, right?¡± Having never seen Yang Guang, Qi Qingsong smiled and said, ¡°Young man, don¡¯t be nervous. We¡¯re not going to break the contract with you today. Even if we want to do it, we don¡¯t have that right.¡± ¡°Then what exactly do you want to do?¡± Yang Guang asked with a puzzled look. Qi Qingsong said, ¡°The thing is, we have absolutely no part in the scenic spots thing.¡± After that, he sighed and raised his head to look at Yang Guang. ¡°You took all the benefits in this. What about the people of Qingshan Village? What about Hongqi Town? You cannot be the only one making a fortune.¡± ¡°You¡¯re wrong about that, Mayor Mr. Qi.¡± Yang Guang quickly explained, ¡°I have never thought of leaving the villagers behind and making a fortune all by myself.¡± ¡°Really?¡± Li Jianshe looked at Yang Guang. ¡°But I heard that you wanted to build the scenic spots on your own and you never thought of supporting the villagers.¡± ¡°You heard it from Sun Guoying, right? I knew it.¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and saw that Qi Qingsong and Li Jianshe looked a little awkward. Then, Yang Guang said, ¡°Sun Guoying is a petty man. The building of the scenic spots hasn¡¯t started yet, so there is no way I can bring any benefits to the villagers now. After the construction starts, I promise that the villagers will all benefit from this. ¡°By that time, there will be a large number of workers moving in to build roads and houses. Although Qingshan Village has very few men who can do physical work, the women can open shops and sell things. ¡°When the scenic spots are open and a large number of tourists come in, the villagers can open all kinds of stores to sell mountain products and souvenirs. I assure you that there are a lot of things they are able to do here.¡± Hearing what Yang Guang said, Qi Qingsong and Li Jianshe looked at each other and nodded at the same time. Then, Qi Qingsong said, ¡°I am sorry that we misunderstood you. It turns out that you are doing this for the villagers¡¯ good.¡± ¡°Because I am part of Qingshan Village. Unlike Sun Guoying, I would not be that selfish and care nothing about the villagers,¡± Yang Guang said. Noticing Yang Guang¡¯s resentment, Li Jianshe smiled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t blame Sun Guoying. He was just trying to be kind.¡± Qi Qingsong intended to change the subject and said with a smile, ¡°Yang Guang, if people in Qingshan Village get rich, I hope you won¡¯t forget about Hongqi Town as well. It is best that you can help everyone get rich.¡± ¡°No problem.¡± Yang Guang patted his chest and agreed. After that, they chatted a little about the scenic spots thing. Knowing that the county commissioner would go to Qingshan Village again, Qi Qingsong quickly said, ¡°Yang Guang, can you let us know when the county commissioner goes to your village?¡± Yang Guang was stunned for a moment and then understood why. He nodded and said, ¡°Okay, Mayor Mr. Qi. I will call you over when the county commissioner comes.¡± ¡°Thank you so much.¡± Qi Qingsong gave Yang Guang a wide smile. When Yang Guang and Xu Ling were about to leave, Qi Qingsong and Li Jianshe walked them out of the door. Qi Qingsong and Li Jianshe did not return to the office until Yang Guang and Xu Ling were nowhere to be seen. On the way back, Xu Ling sat in the back seat and said, ¡°Yang Guang, don¡¯t go to the chief when you are back. There¡¯s no need for that.¡± ¡°Why? He came to the town and told on me. I need to teach him a lesson,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Forget it. Sun Guoying was simply making a fool of himself. The mayor not only didn¡¯t blame you but also thought highly of you. I think you should stay out of trouble and focus on earning money now,¡± Xu Ling said. Hearing her words, Yang Guang felt much better. He smiled and said, ¡°All right, Sister Ling.¡± Xu Ling chuckled and felt relieved. When Yang Guang and Xu Ling returned to the village, the technicians already began to scatter lime on the planned route. Between the two lime lines was the road leading to the mountains. In a few days, there would be machines operating in there. After the sky darkened, the technicians left the village. The village got quiet again. However, this evening, the people in Qingshan Village were different from normal. At dinner, every family was talking about the road construction that was about to begin and the development of the scenic spots. Aside from that, their discussions were also about Yang Guang. Some people envied him and thought this young man was so lucky. After all, Yang Guang was only a village doctor not long ago. However, now he was going to be successful. Of course not everyone had a positive opinion of Yang Guang. There were also some people who found him more and more annoying. They were so jealous of Yang Guang that they kept cursing him at home. It proved the theory that there were all kinds of people in the world. The next morning, Yang Guang received a phone call from Li Jinyun. ¡°I am supposed to come to Qingshan Village today, but I am too busy to be there. How about you and Xu Ling come to me?¡± ¡°Okay. We will come.¡± Yang Guang agreed without thinking. The county commissioner already came here in person once. Yang Guang didn¡¯t want to keep troubling her, so he thought he might as well go to the county. After breakfast, Yang Guang and Xu Ling left the house together. On the way out of the village, the villagers greeted Yang Guang warmly. They didn¡¯t pretend to be enthusiastic and their respect for Yang Guang and Xu Ling came from the heart. Yang Guang had never felt this way before. Even after he went out of the village, he was still a little giddy as if he was floating. Seeing the dazed look on his face, Xu Ling could not help but ask, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you?¡± ¡°Nothing. I¡¯m just a little surprised that everyone suddenly has an enthusiasm for me.¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°I see.¡± Xu Ling laughed and continued, ¡°I heard from your sister-in-law that you were very naughty when you were young. You were often chased and beaten by the villagers, right?¡± ¡°That was a long time ago!¡± Yang Guang looked embarrassed and scratched his head. ¡°Everybody is like that when they are young.¡± Xu Ling raised her chin. ¡°I¡¯m not like that. I am very obedient.¡± ¡°You¡¯re a girl. We are different,¡± Yang Guang said. The two of them chatted and laughed as they pressed on. Soon, they arrived at the bus station. Yang Guang and Xu Ling boarded the bus that was bound for the county. Before they could sit down, a man¡¯s voice came from behind them. ¡°Isn¡¯t it Yang Guang?¡± Yang Guang looked up and saw a flippant young man sitting in the last row. The young man was staring at Yang Guang and grinning. Yang Guang was stunned for a moment before he could remember who the young man was. Then, Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°Hi, Doggy.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t call me by my nickname. Call me Li Haotian.¡± As Li Haotian spoke, he strode forward and his gaze was fixed on Xu Ling¡¯s face instead of Yang Guang. Yang Guang was very displeased.. He punched Li Haotian and said, ¡°What are you looking at?¡± Chapter 129 - Bad Feelings Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The punch was not heavy. Yang Guang was just being playful. Li Haotian pretended to look painful after he was hit. Then, he asked with a bitter face, ¡°I haven¡¯t seen you for a few years. I didn¡¯t expect that you became a person who would choose a woman over your friend.¡± ¡°Screw you. It is because you kept staring at Sister¡­¡± Yang Guang laughed. ¡°Sister?¡± Li Haotian¡¯s eyes widened and he looked at Xu Ling. ¡°I remember you only have a brother.¡± Li Haotian and Yang Guang were junior high school classmates, and they were not from the same village. After graduating, they drifted apart and had not seen each other for several years. Hearing his words, Yang Guang chuckled. ¡°She is not my real sister.¡± ¡°I see. Where did you meet such a beautiful lady? Can I¡­¡± Li Haotian asked. ¡°All right. Stop talking nonsense. Go back and sit down before your seat is taken,¡± said Yang Guang. He let Xu Ling sit by the window and then sat beside her. Li Haotian mumbled, ¡°You are such a heartless man.¡± After that, he asked, ¡°We haven¡¯t met each other in a while. How about you and me chat for a while?¡± Yang Guang replied, ¡°Let¡¯s exchange phone numbers and talk later.¡± He didn¡¯t want to leave Xu Ling. Because if he did, somebody would definitely take his seat. As a man, Yang Guang knew exactly what the male passengers in the car were thinking about. Xu Ling looked beautiful and approachable. Sitting next to her was simply an enjoyment. Therefore, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t let the men get their way. Knowing that Yang Guang was unwilling to sit with him, Li Haotian shook his head helplessly. After the two of them exchanged phone numbers, Li Haotian went back to his seat. Yang Guang sat down, saw that Xu Ling was looking at him, and asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong, Sister Ling?¡± ¡°That¡¯s your classmate, right?¡± Xu Ling inquired. ¡°Yes, he is my junior high school classmate. We haven¡¯t seen each other in a while,¡± Yang Guang nodded and said. Xu Ling went on, ¡°Don¡¯t you have any contact with your classmates?¡± ¡°No, I don¡¯t. When I graduated from junior high school, I didn¡¯t have a cell phone. Later on, my classmates either chose to work or continued to study. A few years after that, I bought a phone, but I didn¡¯t know my classmates¡¯ numbers. Hence, I lost contact with them,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Do you have anyone that you really want to contact?¡± Xu Ling asked. ¡°I don¡¯t think so.¡± Yang Guang thought for a moment and then realized that Xu Ling had a strange look on her face. He demanded, ¡°Sister Ling, why are you asking this?¡± ¡°Nothing. I just want to know if you had a girlfriend at that time.¡± Xu Ling smiled. ¡°Well, my biggest hobby back then was to steal birds¡¯ nests and catch fish in the river. I wasn¡¯t interested in girls,¡± Yang Guang said with a bitter smile. ¡°No way.¡± Xu Ling sat up and looked at him. ¡°You were already a junior high school student, yet all you were thinking about was to steal birds¡¯ nests and catch fish?¡± Yang Guang laughed. ¡°Yeah. Maybe I am a late developer.¡± ¡°Well¡­¡± Xu Ling leaned back in her chair. Yang Guang looked at her. ¡°What about you? Didn¡¯t you have a boyfriend when you were in school?¡± ¡°No, I didn¡¯t.¡± Xu Ling blushed and rolled her eyes at him. ¡°Why do you ask?¡± ¡°I want to know it.¡± Yang Guang was helpless. Then, he smiled and said, ¡°Sister Ling, you¡¯re so beautiful. It¡¯s impossible that no one chased after you, right?¡± ¡°Of course I had some suitors. It¡¯s just that I didn¡¯t want to talk to them,¡± Xu Ling said with a proud look. ¡°I knew it. Ordinary men don¡¯t deserve you.¡± Yang Guang laughed. Xu Ling smiled happily. ¡°I like to hear that.¡± Seeing that she was delighted, Yang Guang was happy too. Then, he asked, ¡°Sister Ling, do you think I am an ordinary man?¡± ¡°You?¡± Xu Ling turned to gaze at Yang Guang. She sized him up with a serious expression and gave him weird looks, which made him feel uneasy. Although they had some close contact before, Yang Guang could not figure out what Xu Ling was thinking about and he did not know how she felt about him. However, right after Yang Guang asked the question, he felt regretful. Xu Ling looked at him for a long time and slowly said, ¡°I think that you cannot be more ordinary.¡± Yang Guang¡¯s face turned pale and he smiled awkwardly. He felt as if his heart was stabbed, which was extremely painful. However, Yang Guang was still smiling. After a while, he asked, ¡°Are you serious? How can you say that I am ordinary? Have you forgotten what happened when you were trapped in the fire?¡± Before he could finish his sentence, Xu Ling interrupted him, ¡°Forget about it. At that time, I thought that I was going to die, so I lost control of my emotions. What I said was not my real thoughts.¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Yang Guang was completely dumbfounded. He remembered how he hugged Xu Ling back then. She told him it wasn¡¯t that she didn¡¯t like him but she needed some time. But now everything changed. Yang Guang was so disappointed that the smile on his face disappeared and his heart was heavy. At first, he was happy that he could go to the county with Xu Ling. However, he couldn¡¯t feel any worse now. Xu Ling pretended that she didn¡¯t notice Yang Guang¡¯s expression. She put her arms around her shoulders, leaned against the seat, and closed her eyes. The two of them didn¡¯t talk to each other until the bus drove into the county. After getting off the bus, Li Haotian caught up with Yang Guang from behind. ¡°Where are you going?¡± ¡°I¡¯m going to the county government. What about you?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°I¡¯m going back to work. Remember to call me when you have time. I¡¯ll buy you a drink,¡± Li Haotian said. Yang Guang answered, ¡°Okay. Let¡¯s have a drink today. I¡¯ll call you later.¡± Although he was depressed, his eyes lit up when he heard the word ¡°drink¡±. Li Haotian didn¡¯t expect Yang Guang to say yes so quickly. Hence, Li Haotian was stunned for a moment before he nodded. ¡°Okay. I¡¯ll wait for your call then.¡± After Yang Guang and Li Haotian separated, Yang Guang and Xu Ling left the station. They did not take a taxi. Instead, they walked across the street, took a few turns, and arrived at their destination. Yang Guang and Xu Ling registered at the gate first. Then, the doorman called Li Jinyun¡¯s office to confirm that they had an appointment with Li Jinyun. After that, Yang Guang and Xu Ling entered the building. As they went into the office, Li Jinyun stood up and smiled. ¡°You¡¯re here. Take a seat, please.¡± ¡°County Commissioner Ms. Li, did you call us over because there was some progress in the scenic spots thing?¡± Xu Ling asked. Li Jinyun responded, ¡°Yeah. The plan of the scenic spots, as well as the quote, has been finished. I thought you guys would be anxious to know the progress, so I called early in the morning.¡± Li Jinyun smiled and took out a folded drawing from an envelope and handed it to Xu Ling. ¡°Take a look at it. This plan was done with reference to many famous scenic areas in the country.¡± Xu Ling nodded, took the plan over, and looked at it. Then, she said happily, ¡°That¡¯s great. If the scenic spots can be built like this, they would be so beautiful.¡± Li Jinyun said, ¡°There will be some difference between the plan and the actual scenic spots. After all, everything is beautified on the plan.¡± Li Jinyun smiled. Then, she looked at Yang Guang and found that he was a little absent-minded.. She asked, ¡°Yang Guang, why don¡¯t you say anything about that?¡± Chapter 130 - Go Shopping Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Only then did Yang Guang come back to his senses. He raised his head and said, ¡°I¡¯m listening.¡± As a smart person, how could Li Jinyun not know what Yang Guang was thinking about? Yang Guang¡¯s face was full of disappointment. There was no way he could hide it. So she smiled and asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Are you worried about the initial funding after hearing the plan?¡± ¡°Uh, right, how much would it cost according to this plan?¡± Yang Guang quickly asked. ¡°30 million.¡± Li Jinyun said. ¡°Fu ¡­ ¡± Yang Guang was about to cuss when he immediately realized it and paused. Then, he widened his eyes and asked, ¡°Why does it cost so much?¡± ¡°No, it is not much at all according to the standard of a top scenic spot in our country.¡± Li Jinyun continued, ¡°After all, there is nothing else in the mountain except for the trees and the palace. Moreover, it will cost 10 million just to build the resort hotel.¡± ¡°That¡¯s expensive!¡± Yang Guang clicked his tongue when he heard that. He thought to himself that even if he were to charge the riches 30,000 dollars each for treating them, he would have to find 1,000 people to make up the sum. Not to mention how much time it would take him to treat them, where could he find so many sick and rich people? Seeing Yang Guang¡¯s face turned gloomy, Li Jinyun burst into laughter. ¡°I knew you would be worried. Regarding the funding issue, I¡¯ll help you raise a portion. You can think of a way to solve the rest by yourself.¡± ¡°Oh?¡± Yang Guang immediately raised his head when he heard that. ¡°You will help me raise funds? How will you do that?¡± ¡°I have contacted one of my classmates who works in a bank and gave him the documents about the construction plan of the scenic area as well as the copy of your contract. So, he can give you a loan of two million to start running the project. Then, for the follow-up funds, I have already contacted some venture capital companies. They will invest in your project then.¡± Li Jinyun said. ¡°Uh, then would I have to hand over my management rights?¡± Yang Guang asked. Li Jinyun shook her head and replied, ¡°No, you just need to ensure to operate the scenic area smoothly so that they can profit. Only if the operation is not good and they can¡¯t make money anymore, will they strip you of your management rights.¡± ¡°That shouldn¡¯t happen,¡± Yang Guang said after a quick thought, ¡°I¡¯m fully confident in this project!¡± ¡°That would be great,¡± Li Jinyun nodded and continued, ¡°But it¡¯s impossible for the venture capital companies to give you 28 million in one go. So, there will probably be a gap of a few million. Then, you¡¯ll have to think of a way by yourself.¡± ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll try my best.¡± Yang Guang nodded and thought that a few million was not a small amount. He did not want to ask Qi Yingxue for help, so he had to think about it carefully. While he was deep in thought, Xu Ling chatted with Li Jinyun for a while. After they finished talking about the scenic area, she quietly nudged Yang Guang and whispered, ¡°It¡¯s time to go!¡± ¡°Oh, okay.¡± Yang Guang quickly stood up and said goodbye to Li Jinyun. Then, he left her office together with Xu Ling. After they walked out, Yang Guang looked at Xu Ling and asked, ¡°So, what are you doing next?¡± Xu Ling stared at him. ¡°Were you listening just now? Do you still remember what Ms. Li just said?¡± ¡°Uh ¡­ What did she say?¡± Yang Guang was indeed distracted for a period of time just now. He did not listen to their conversation at all. Xu Ling rolled her eyes helplessly and said, ¡°She told us to have dinner with the people from the bank and the venture capital companies. Then we can talk about the business of the scenic area.¡± ¡°Oh, you have everything arranged?¡± Yang Guang scratched his head and asked, ¡°Then we are not going back now?¡± Xu Ling was speechless. ¡°We can go back if you want. Then, we have to come again this afternoon. What do you think?¡± Yang Guang finally understood the situation. ¡°That¡¯s not necessary. Let¡¯s just stay in the county.¡± Then, he looked around and said, ¡°Let¡¯s find an internet cafe first, just to kill time.¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t expect you to be an internet addict. Do you have nothing else to do except surfing online?¡± Xu Ling glared at him and asked unhappily. Yang Guang thought to himself, ¡°I don¡¯t want to do it either. Don¡¯t you know what the problem is?¡± However, he didn¡¯t say that. Instead, he asked, ¡°Then what do you want to do?¡± ¡°Follow me.¡± Xu Ling glared at him again and then walked towards the exit. When they walked to the street outside, she took a cab and got in with Yang Guang, then said to the driver, ¡°Go to Boavow Shopping Center, please.¡± After saying ¡°okay¡±, the driver started the car. Hearing what Xu Ling said, Yang Guang was a little confused and asked in puzzlement, ¡°What are we doing there?¡± ¡°To buy a new suit. Look at your coat. It¡¯s wrinkled! We¡¯re going to meet important clients tonight, so you must be well-dressed.¡± Xu Ling said. He looked down at his coat. Although it was clean, it looked obviously a little wrinkled and old. So, Yang Guang agreed. It was not a big town, so they soon arrived outside the shopping mall after a short while. Xu Ling paid the fare and got off the cab with Yang Guang. Looking up at the ten-story tall building, Yang Guang found the huge advertisement outside dazzling. He clicked his tongue and said, ¡°I¡¯ve heard of this place but never came here. I couldn¡¯t afford it in the past.¡± ¡°Yes, that was true in the past. But you¡¯re rich enough now!¡± Xu Ling said and then looked at him. ¡°Let¡¯s go directly to the men¡¯s clothing department on the Fifth Floor!¡± When they entered the mall, they saw an endless stream of customers. It was very lively. Yang Guang looked around with a curious face. Soon, he followed Xu Ling into the elevator. When they reached the upper floor, they saw all kinds of clothing stores as soon as the elevator door opened. Suits, casual wear, and sportswear were everywhere. As he had never been here before, Yang Guang followed behind Xu Ling wherever she went. Xu Ling seemed to have a goal when they came into the mall. She walked directly to a store with a big front. ¡°Welcome!¡± The shop assistant greeted them cordially. She came up to them and asked, ¡°May I help you?¡± ¡°Thank you. We¡¯re just browsing.¡± Xu Ling smiled and walked towards the suit section. Yang Guang followed her and took a look at the tag on a suit. He immediately sucked in a breath of cold air. ¡°F*ck, isn¡¯t it too pricy?¡± There was a shocking number on the price tag. It was 2,000 dollars! Yang Guang thought to himself, ¡°It was enough to cover the expenses of my daily life for almost a year! And I can only buy a suit with so much money?¡± ¡°Suits are expensive. The branded suits are usually a little pricy.¡± Xu Ling did not care too much. She picked up a suit and continued, ¡°Come and try this on!¡± ¡°No!¡± Yang Guang shook his head and immediately refused. ¡°Stop nagging. Hurry up and try it on!¡± Xu Ling pulled a long face and glared at him. ¡°Fine.¡± Seeing that she was unhappy, Yang Guang could only walk over. Before he could try it on, a woman¡¯s voice suddenly came from the side, ¡°Hello, Yang Guang?¡± Turning around, he saw a petite girl holding the arm of a young white man, looking at him in surprise.. Chapter 131 - Buying the Suit Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was stunned. He took a few glances at the woman and vaguely remembered a person from her appearance. Hence, he probed, ¡°Are you ¡­ Li Yan?¡± ¡°Yes, I am, your classmate in junior high school! What? You don¡¯t remember me?¡± Li Yan smiled slightly and turned to the man beside her, saying, ¡°Hu Liang, he is the guy I told you about, the one who wrote me a love letter when I was in school!¡± Yang Guang¡¯s face instantly blushed. He never expected that his junior high classmate would mention such a thing when they just met after so many years. Xu Ling was stunned for a moment. Then, she glanced at Yang Guang, thinking that he had lied to her. Then, she took a look at Li Yan. This woman was not tall, but she had a delicate and pretty face. However, it seemed a little inappropriate for her to embarrass Yang Guang with the past thing in public. The man named Hu Liang was obviously her boyfriend. Xu Ling had no idea why Li Yan said that. ¡°So, you are Yang Guang?¡± Hu Liang spoke at this time. He sized Yang Guang up and asked, ¡°Li Yan told me about you. I heard that you have been living in the village?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± Yang Guang nodded. ¡°How could a villager dare to shop at such a fancy place? I suggest you shop around the wholesale market. Things are cheap there. You can buy an outfit with only 40 bucks!¡± Hu Liang sneered. ¡°Don¡¯t say that. What if Yang Guang is rich?¡± Li Yan said this as she turned to look at Yang Guang. ¡°It¡¯s good to meet you today. Hu Liang and I are getting engaged next week. Why don¡¯t you come then?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Come and witness our happiness. Then you can give up.¡± Hu Liang smiled. Yang Guang felt a little awkward. He didn¡¯t know what to say. At this time, Xu Ling walked over and said, ¡°Sorry, we¡¯re pretty busy. I don¡¯t think we¡¯ll have time to make it.¡± Just now, Xu Ling was a few inches away from Yang Guang, so Li Yan and Hu Liang didn¡¯t notice her. When Xu Ling came closer, the two of them were stunned. Then, Hu Liang¡¯s eyes lit up. Compared with Li Yan, Xu Ling was as gorgeous as a fairy. Her charm completely surpassed Li Yan¡¯s, making Li Yan an ordinary one. ¡°Who are you?¡± Li Yan had been proud until she saw Xu Ling. She was full of jealousy at the sight of Xu Ling. Xu Ling smiled. ¡°I¡¯m Yang Guang¡¯s girlfriend. Were you his classmate? But I never heard him talk about you.¡± ¡°You ¡­ ¡± Li Yan was so defeated that she lost for words. Yet, Xu Ling continued, ¡°Oh right, maybe he doesn¡¯t have any impression of you. Anyway, he was too young to distinguish people back then. Now he¡¯s mature enough to make the correct choice.¡± As she spoke, she took the opportunity to hug Yang Guang¡¯s arm. Seeing Yang Guang had such a beautiful intimate girlfriend, Hu Liang even began to feel envious of him. ¡°I don¡¯t believe that you have such a good-looking girlfriend. Yang Guang, you didn¡¯t hire her, right?¡± Li Yan asked. Yang Guang was speechless. He looked at her and said, ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that I would meet you here. Why did I hire someone to pretend to be my girlfriend?¡± After a pause, he continued with a smile, ¡°Besides, why can¡¯t I have a good-looking girlfriend?¡± ¡°You are just a farmer. Why should she like you?!¡± Li Yan was still unwilling to believe him. ¡°Then you¡¯re wrong. I¡¯m already an entrepreneur now. I just finished discussing business with the county commissioner.¡± Yang Guang chuckled and continued, ¡°But forget it. You won¡¯t believe it anyway. This isn¡¯t something you can understand. After all, you didn¡¯t even graduate from high school!¡± After feeling proud, he turned around, looked at Xu Ling, and asked, ¡°How much is this suit? We¡¯re talking about a project of tens of millions tonight. It won¡¯t do if it¡¯s too cheap.¡± Xu Ling smiled sweetly. ¡°It¡¯s 4,000 dollars. I think it¡¯s enough.¡± ¡°Alright, then let me try it on.¡± Yang Guang nodded and ignored Li Yan and Hu Liang. He turned around and went to the fitting room. As Xu Ling walked away, Hu Liang¡¯s eyes were still fixed on her. Li Yan was already feeling uncomfortable after being defeated. When she turned around and saw Hu Liang¡¯s gaze on Xu Ling, she became even angrier. She stepped on him and turned around to leave. ¡°Thank you, Xu Ling.¡± Seeing them gone, Yang Guang said to Xu Ling. Xu Ling looked up and then rolled her eyes at him. ¡°Thank me for helping you?¡± ¡°Yeah. You didn¡¯t agree to be my girlfriend. Didn¡¯t you do it for making me honorable in front of them?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Alright, it¡¯s fine if you think so.¡± Xu Ling said without thinking, then she asked, ¡°Don¡¯t you think it too pricy now? This suit costs 4,000 dollars. I didn¡¯t make it up.¡± ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter anymore. I suddenly understand that we have to be well-dressed. If I had worn this suit just now, they probably wouldn¡¯t have dared to look down on me.¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Exactly!¡± Xu Ling nodded. ¡°Not everyone in this world is like you. Many people judge others by their appearance. You can tell by the look in their eyes.¡± ¡°What look?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Some people would be very rude and size you from head to toe when they first met you. They would look at your clothes, shoes, and even your belt.¡± Xu Ling looked at him as she said, ¡°If they realize that you are wearing cheapie instead of a brand, they will look down on you from the bottom of their hearts.¡± Yang Guang was puzzled. ¡°Uh, why? Do they think it¡¯s interesting?¡± ¡°Yes, they do. This is their standard to judge others. They judge people by their appearance.¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°That¡¯s boring!¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and continued, ¡°I¡¯m only going to wear this suit once for tonight. If I wear it in the village, I¡¯m afraid they will all laugh at me.¡± ¡°Yeah, that¡¯s really too much!¡± Xu Ling pursed her lips into a smile and continued, ¡°But you still have other chances to wear it. You¡¯ll definitely meet many big shots in the future, and dressing formally is also a kind of respect to them.¡± As they were talking, Yang Guang had already put the suit on. Looking into the dressing mirror, he found himself tall and straight in the black suit. Coupled with the muscles on his body, he gave off the feeling of James Bond, looking charming. Xu Ling¡¯s eyes curved into a smile. ¡°Geeze! Looks like this suit is custom-made for you!¡± ¡°That¡¯s because I have a perfect body shape!¡± Yang Guang smiled smugly. He had forgotten all the depression in his mind previously. Just like that, they bought the suit. Then, Xu Ling chose two more casual outfits for him. They were not expensive, at a fraction of the suit. After that, they bought a shirt and leather shoes. When they finished shopping at the men¡¯s department, Yang Guang spent a total of around 5,000 dollars. After paying, he carried a few bags and left this section. Yang Guang turned his head and asked, ¡°Xu Ling, shall we buy some clothes for you in the women¡¯s department?¡± ¡°No, I¡¯ll skip it. Just like you said, if I wear fancy clothes in the village, people will laugh at me.¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Come on! You¡¯re a girl. Girls should wear fancy clothes. Come with me!¡± Yang Guang said as he took her hand and went straight to the women¡¯s department.. Chapter 132 - What Do You Want? Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Unable to persuade Yang Guang, Xu Ling finally bought a few clothes as well, including two dresses, two pairs of jeans, and a pair of sandals. ¡°I just like the way you wear sandals. Your toes are pretty nice!¡± Seeing that Xu Ling had changed into her new sandals, Yang Guang said with a smile. Hearing that, Xu Ling¡¯s face blushed, and then she glared at him. Yang Guang said it casually. But to her, it sounded a little flirtatious. Xu Ling asked, ¡°What? Do you have a fetish for something, like girls¡¯ toes?¡± ¡°Uh, no, of course not!¡± Seeing her unfriendly expression, Yang Guang quickly shook his head. ¡°I meant your toes look great in the sandals. I¡¯m not a lecherous freak!¡± ¡°Well, who knows?¡± Xu Ling rolled her eyes at him and handed over the bag in her hand. ¡°You carry them for me!¡± ¡°With my pleasure!¡± Yang Guang reached out to take them and then asked, ¡°What are we going to do next?¡± ¡°Anything except going to the internet cafe.¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Alright, then let¡¯s go to a hotel.¡± Yang Guang said. His voice was a little loud as he said it, attracting the attention of the people around them. They turned their gaze at Xu Ling and Yang Guang. Xu Ling was embarrassed and blushed. She glared at Yang Guang and said, ¡°Don¡¯t talk nonsense!¡± Then, she turned around and left at lightning speed. Yang Guang quickly caught up with her, but Xu Ling immediately blamed him. Later on, Xu Ling finally decided to agree with Yang Guang. They had to find a hotel and settle down first. After all, they couldn¡¯t carry the shopping bags with them and walk around all the time. And they had to get changed for the dinner. When they were looking for a hotel, Yang Guang asked meaningfully, ¡°Hey, Xu Ling, shall we get one room or two?¡± Xu Ling stopped in her tracks and turned to look at him. ¡°What do you think?¡± ¡°Uh, in my opinion, it will cost a lot to get two rooms. Why don¡¯t we just get one?¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Really? To save money? Is that the actual reason?¡± Xu Ling narrowed her eyes. ¡°Yeah, of course it is! I don¡¯t have any bad intentions. Don¡¯t take it the wrong way!¡± Yang Guang said earnestly. Xu Ling looked at him and said, ¡°We¡¯ll decide later when we get there.¡± Hearing her a little indecisive, Yang Guang immediately raised his eyebrows and thought, ¡°Great! There¡¯s a chance.¡± However, things went beyond his expectation. When they arrived at the hotel, Xu Ling immediately asked about the room rate. It turned out that a suite would cost 100 dollars, while the standard room cost only 35 dollars. In other words, two standard rooms cost 70 dollars, which would cost less than a suite! Xu Ling turned her head and looked at Yang Guang with a faint smile, asking, ¡°We need to save money. That¡¯s what you said, right?¡± ¡°Uh ¡­ ¡° Yang Guang had nothing to say. It would make his intention obvious if he insisted on one room. Therefore, he had no choice but to smile bitterly. ¡°Then let¡¯s get two standard rooms.¡± Xu Ling¡¯s lips curled up as she saw Yang Guang had failed in his plan, and she was bursting with joy in her heart. After registering their ID cards, paying for the rooms, and taking the cards, they took the elevator upstairs. Then, they arrived at the rooms on the sixth floor. Xu Ling swiped her card to open the door. Seeing Yang Guang standing at the door without moving, she asked, ¡°Why don¡¯t you go back to your room?¡± ¡°Where should I put your bags?¡± Yang Guang raised the shopping bags in his hand. ¡°Brought them into the room then!¡± Xu Ling said and turned to enter the room. Yang Guang quickly followed her and went inside. He took a look at the room and found it was small, about only 200 square feet. There was a small couch and a large bed in the room. ¡°No wonder it¡¯s cheap. This room is too shabby!¡± Yang Guang said with disappointment. ¡°We just have a temporary rest here. There¡¯s no need to get a high-class room!¡± Xu Ling said. She pulled open the curtains and looked outside. Then she opened the window. A gust of wind blew in, causing her hair to flutter. Yang Guang looked at her back and rolled his eyes. He put down the bags and sat down on the couch. ¡°Why are you still here? You¡¯ve put down the bags, and you can go to your own room now,¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°It¡¯s boring to be alone. I¡¯ll stay and chat with you,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°But I don¡¯t want to chat. I want to take a nap!¡± Xu Ling said. They had already bought something to eat as their lunch at the mall. So, Xu Ling felt a little sleepy. Seeing Xu Ling wants to chase him away, Yang Guang said, ¡°Then you take a nap. I¡¯ll just sit by the side.¡± ¡°How can I sleep while you¡¯re here?¡± Xu Ling rolled her eyes at him and asked unhappily. ¡°Why not? Could I hurt you?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°If you¡¯re bored, go find Ying Xue or Wan ¡®Er!¡± Xu Ling said. Yang Guang shook his head and rejected, ¡°No, I¡¯ll just contact them later. I want to invite them along for dinner.¡± ¡°So you¡¯re staying here?¡± Xu Ling asked. ¡°I just don¡¯t want to be alone.¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Help yourself then.¡± Xu Ling had no choice but to lie down on the bed. She pulled a blanket over herself. Seeing her lying with her back facing him, Yang Guang was helpless. The room fell silent for a moment. There was no other sound other than the occasional sound of the wind. Looking at Xu Ling lying in bed, Yang Guang could see the curves of her body even under the blanket. For a moment, he was in a daze and forgot about the time. After some time, he did not know how long but felt a little numb on his waist and legs. Only then did he slowly change his position. ¡°Xu Ling, are you asleep?¡± Yang Guang asked in a low voice. Xu Ling did not respond. She seemed to have fallen asleep. Hence, Yang Guang stood up and slowly walked to the bedside. He could not see her face as Xu Ling had her back facing him. He quietly climbed onto the bed and looked over. Unexpectedly, he saw Xu Ling¡¯s eyes wide open. She did not sleep at all! Their eyes met. Yang Guang smiled awkwardly and asked, ¡°You are awake? Then why didn¡¯t you answer me?¡± ¡°I was asleep at first, but I felt you quietly got into the bed.¡± Xu Ling turned over and changed to a lying position. She looked at him with vigilance. ¡°What do you want?¡± ¡°Nothing. I just wanted to see if you were asleep!¡± Yang Guang smiled and got off the bed, sitting back down on the couch. Xu Ling looked at him and pursed her lips. ¡°You¡¯d better be good and don¡¯t do anything stupid. Otherwise, I¡¯ll tell Ying Xue and Wan ¡®Er at dinner tonight!¡± ¡°Come on, it can¡¯t be that serious, right? I really don¡¯t have any ill intentions unless you seduce me.¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°You wish!¡± Xu Ling rolled her eyes and glared at him. She felt a little worried and didn¡¯t dare to sleep. What if Yang Guang came onto the bed again? So, she thought of a way and immediately said, ¡°Oh right, I forgot to buy something. Can you make a trip for me?¡± Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°What didn¡¯t you buy?¡± ¡°Silk stockings!¡± Xu Ling replied and then continued, ¡°It¡¯s easy to find them. The convenience store downstairs has some. There should be several kinds of them of different prices.¡± Yang Guang nodded. ¡°Oh, okay, then I will go now..¡± Chapter 133 - Wearing Pantyhose Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Just as he reached the door, Yang Guang turned around. ¡°You¡¯re not going to lock the door from the inside after I leave, are you?¡± Xu Ling really thought so, but of course, she couldn¡¯t admit it, so she shook her head. ¡°No, don¡¯t worry!¡± ¡°You promise!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Okay, I promise. If I lock the door from the inside, then I¡¯m a puppy!¡± Xu Ling said helplessly. Only then did Yang Guang feel relieved. He turned around and left the room. After he left for less than a minute, Xu Ling immediately got off the bed and locked the door from the inside! Then, she revealed a wicked smile. ¡°Little Brat, I won¡¯t be able to deal with you without some tricks!¡± Yang Guang took the elevator and asked the front desk about the convenience store nearby. He found one not long after he went out. After entering the store, he did not know where the pantyhose were, so he asked the shopkeeper. Then, he found the place where the pantyhose were placed, and Yang Guang was stunned. There were many kinds of pantyhose here, such as pure white, flesh-colored, black, long stockings, and pantyhose. There were many varieties, and he was dazzled! He picked them up one by one and studied them. Then, a girl passed by and glanced at him. Following that, the girl revealed a disgusted expression and cursed in a low voice, ¡°Pervert!¡± Yang Guang was speechless. He turned around and wanted to argue with her, but the girl had already left with quick steps. Yang Guang thought to himself, ¡°Who did I offend? I¡¯ve never seen pantyhose before. Can¡¯t I get to know more about them?¡± After looking at them for a long time, he didn¡¯t know what type to buy. He wanted to call Xu Ling to ask, but he realized that the phone wasn¡¯t in his pocket. He had left it in her room. Yang Guang had no choice but to buy three colors of each model. He took six pantyhose before turning around to return to the cashier. When he paid the bill, the salesperson¡¯s gaze was a little strange. She secretly sized up Yang Guang several times. Yang Guang did not know what was going on, but he was too lazy to ask. After paying the bill, he took a bag of pantyhose and returned to the room. When he went upstairs and tried to open the door with his room card, he realized that the door could not be pushed open at all! He tried a few times, but there was no sound from inside. At this time, the floor attendant walked over and asked with a smile, ¡°Sir, do you need help?¡± ¡°Uh, the door can¡¯t be opened,¡± said Yang Guang. Looking at the door lock, the attendant asked, ¡°Is there someone in the room?¡± ¡°Yes, what¡¯s wrong?¡± Yang Guang asked. The attendant smiled. ¡°That¡¯s right. The door can¡¯t be opened because it¡¯s locked from the inside. Only the person inside can open the door.¡± ¡°¡­¡± Yang Guang finally understood, so he knocked on the door and shouted, ¡°Xu Ling, you¡¯re really good. You¡¯d rather be a puppy than let me in!¡± The attendant giggled when she heard that. She felt that the two lovers must be having a conflict, so she didn¡¯t say anything and quickly left. Yang Guang had no choice but to go to his room and use his room card to open the door. The environment in this room was the same as Xu Ling¡¯s. He threw the pantyhose on the bed and then went to open the window. Looking at the time, it was only slightly past two in the afternoon. Dinner would only be served at least six in the evening. Yang Guang looked bored and his phone was not by his side. He had no choice but to pick up the remote control and turn on the television. He changed the channels one after another, but his mind was not on the screen at all. He was already out of his mind. After an unknown amount of time, Yang Guang let out a long sigh and directly collapsed on the bed. In the end, he was hit by something on the bed, and only then did he remember that there was still a bag of pantyhose. He casually picked one up and looked at the advertising beauty on the cover. The pantyhose looked pretty good on her legs. ¡°I wonder what it feels like to wear this thing?¡± Yang Guang scratched his head and thought. Since he was bored, he was thinking of trying it on. Xu Ling can¡¯t wear six pantyhose at once, right? So he rolled his eyes and took off his pants, leaving only a pair of boxers. Then he opened a white pantyhose. He didn¡¯t know how to wear it. After trying it on for a while, he finally put the pantyhose on his legs. His thigh was completely covered by the silky feeling. It felt a little strange. He reached out and touched it. It was slick! Yang Guang nodded. ¡°It¡¯s a little interesting!¡± Having fun, he decided to put on the other pantyhose as well. His two legs rubbed against each other. The silky feeling immediately made him feel very comfortable. After playing for a while, he felt a wave of sleepiness. Yang Guang was too lazy to take it off. He immediately tilted his head and fell asleep. When there was a knock on the door, Yang Guang suddenly woke up. He turned his head to look at the sky outside and realized that the sun was already setting in the west. He got out of bed and rubbed his eyes as he came to the door. ¡°Stop knocking. I¡¯m coming!¡± When he pushed the door open and saw the two people standing outside, Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°Sister, why are you here?¡± Xu Ling and Qi Yingxue were standing outside. Initially, the two of them had smiles on their faces. However, when they saw Yang Guang, their gazes immediately shifted down and then fixed on his legs! The two women¡¯s eyes widened and they were stunned at the same time! Yang Guang lowered his head and realized that he was still wearing the white pantyhose. Other than that, the lower half of his body was a pair of boxers! Therefore, he immediately let out a strange cry and rushed into the house with a whoosh! Outside, Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling looked at each other. They were both angry and amused, and their faces were full of helplessness. After waiting for more than a minute, the two of them stepped into the room. Yang Guang had already taken off his pantyhose and put on his pants at the same time. ¡°I can¡¯t believe it. Yang Guang, you are a transvestite?¡± Xu Ling looked at the pantyhose on the bed and said with a frown. Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°What¡¯s a transvestite?¡± ¡°It¡¯s like what you did just now, wearing women¡¯s clothes!¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°I didn¡¯t do it on purpose. I was just purely curious. I wanted to know how it felt like!¡± Yang Guang defended himself. ¡°Really? Try it out? Did you buy them all at once?¡± Xu Ling asked. Yang Guang¡¯s eyes widened. ¡°You didn¡¯t tell me what type or color you want. I could only buy one each. I didn¡¯t take my phone, so I couldn¡¯t ask. I spent 100 yuan on these pantyhose. I haven¡¯t settled the score with you yet!¡± ¡°Oh, is that so?¡± Xu Ling smiled, and a mischievous look flashed across her eyes. ¡°How is it? Do you feel comfortable wearing pantyhose?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t feel comfortable. It strangled me to death. Even in my dreams, I felt something wrap around my legs. I thought I fell into a swamp!¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and pointed to the bed. ¡°Here, it¡¯s all here. Take them back and wear it!¡± ¡°No need. I suddenly don¡¯t want to wear it anymore!¡± Xu Ling said. Yang Guang was not happy after hearing that. He stared at her with his round eyes. ¡°Oh, so you¡¯re trying to trick me out and then lock the door behind me?¡± ¡°Hehe, it¡¯s good that you know.¡± Xu Ling smiled. Qi Yingxue came out to smooth things over. ¡°Alright, Yang Guang made a trip and even spent money. Why not you just wear it!¡± Xu Ling hesitated for a moment. She did not want to really hurt Yang Guang, so she rolled her eyes and nodded. ¡°Alright, but Sister, you¡¯re here too. There are two black pantyhose.. Then you should put it on too!¡± Chapter 134 - Dazed Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Qi Yingxue was stunned. Seeing the strange look in Xu Ling¡¯s eyes, she knew that she was trying to drag her down with her, so she shook her head and smiled. ¡°No, I¡¯m wearing long pants. It¡¯s useless even if I wear pantyhose!¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay. I have a dress in my room. It¡¯ll be fine after you change into a dress. Let¡¯s go!¡± Xu Ling did not say a word and pulled her arm away! Qi Yingxue was helpless and could not struggle. She could only leave Yang Guang¡¯s room with her. Seeing that the two of them had left, Yang Guang quickly followed them. When they reached the door of Xu Ling¡¯s room, she turned around and took a look. ¡°Hey, we need to change our clothes. Why are you following us?¡± ¡°I want to take my phone. Do you think I want to peek?¡± Yang Guang asked confidently. ¡°Wait, I¡¯ll get it for you!¡± Xu Ling said and pulled Qi Yingxue into the room. She quickly took out the phone and handed it to Yang Guang, then closed the door. Standing at the door, Yang Guang¡¯s heart was actually a little itchy. He really wanted to see the two ladies change their pantyhose. It would probably be beautiful scenery. But unfortunately, they didn¡¯t let him see it, so he couldn¡¯t force his way in. He could only endure it. He stood there in a daze for a few minutes. Just as he was about to return to his room, Xu Ling¡¯s door opened again. Now, she had changed into a dress that she had just bought. The hem of the dress was only above her knees, and there were pantyhose wrapped around her legs. It actually had a unique attraction! Yang Guang¡¯s eyes instantly widened. He did not expect Qi Yingxue to come out as well! The two beauties were both wearing short skirts with black pantyhose. Yang Guang was completely dumbfounded! The more he was like this, the happier Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling were. This proved that they were very attractive, so both of them laughed. ¡°Alright, stop daydreaming. It¡¯s getting late. You should hurry up and change your clothes. Didn¡¯t you just buy a suit today?¡± Qi Yingxue said. Only then did Yang Guang come back to his senses. He replied with an ¡°Oh¡± in a daze before turning around to return to his room. At the same time, he sighed in his heart, ¡°Oh my God, so girls actually look so good in pantyhose!¡± He just didn¡¯t know how it felt? When this thought popped up in his mind, it was like a sprout of wild grass that rapidly grew in his heart! In a daze, he returned to his room to change his clothes. After coming out, Yang Guang almost forgot to close the door and left with the two of them. Fortunately, Qi Yingxue reminded him. He turned around and closed the door. Then, he followed them downstairs. Even when he got into the car, Yang Guang¡¯s eyes never left their legs. It was as if he was possessed. He could not get rid of the desire in his mind. After driving for some distance, Xu Ling turned around and looked at Yang Guang who was sitting in the back seat. ¡°How did you become a fool? There¡¯s a very important question that I haven¡¯t asked yet!¡± ¡°Ah? What question?¡± Yang Guang came back to his senses and asked in puzzlement. Qi Yingxue pursed her lips and smiled. ¡°Looks like you¡¯re really stupid. Didn¡¯t you realize that there¡¯s one person absent today?¡± ¡°Oh, that¡¯s right. Where¡¯s Mu Xiaowan? Why isn¡¯t she here?¡± Only then did Yang Guang react and quickly asked. Qi Yingxue looked at him from the rearview mirror. ¡°Fortunately, Xiaowan isn¡¯t here. Otherwise, if she knew that you only remembered her now, the consequences would be very serious!¡± ¡°Hehe, can¡¯t you two sisters just keep it a secret for me? Oh right, where did she go?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°You came at the wrong time. She went to the provincial capital. She will be back in two or three days!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Oh, what did she go for? Is it about the family business?¡± Yang Guang continued to ask. Qi Yingxue shook her head. ¡°No, one of her classmates is getting married. Xiaowan went to attend the wedding.¡± ¡°Oh, is that so?¡± Yang Guang nodded and smiled. ¡°Her classmates are all a little anxious. They are either engaged or getting married recently.¡± As they spoke, the car arrived at the parking lot of a restaurant. After the three of them got out of the car, they were not in a hurry to go in. Instead, they waited at the door for a while because Li Jinyun had not arrived yet. The three of them stood at the door. Xu Ling and Qi Yingxue naturally became the focus of everyone¡¯s attention. The two of them were beautiful women. After changing their physiques, their skin was even more beautiful than snow. Their red lips and eyes made them look like fairies from a painting, attracting many men to look at them. They didn¡¯t even look at the stairs when they walked, and several of them fell down! Seeing this, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but laugh. ¡°If you guys continue like this, will you be sued by others?¡± Qi Yingxue smiled slightly. Xu Ling, on the other hand, felt a little uneasy, so she said, ¡°Why don¡¯t we go back to the car and wait? This isn¡¯t really a good idea.¡± ¡°No need. The car is here!¡± Qi Yingxue pointed and a black official car drove into the parking lot. Li Jinyun, who was wearing a suit and skirt, got out of the car. When she got closer, she couldn¡¯t help but smile when she saw Xu Ling and Qi Yingxue¡¯s attire. ¡°Fine. In front of the two of you, I¡¯m completely overshadowed by the two of you!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t say that. Sister Yun, we¡¯re still envious of your mature intellectual beauty!¡± Qi Yingxue said with a smile. After exchanging a few pleasantries, the four of them entered the hotel together. Then, under the guidance of the waiter, they went to the private room that they had booked. Because they were treating others to a meal, they came in advance. The people from the bank and the venture capital investment had not arrived yet. Li Jinyun first arranged for everyone¡¯s seats. She gave up the main seat and sat at the side. Qi Yingxue sat next to her, followed by Xu Ling, and then Yang Guang. Then, when the other party arrived, they could sit across from each other. It would also be convenient for Li Jinyun to take the lead and have a good chat with the other party about the development of the scenic area. Just as they were waiting for the guests to arrive, Yang Guang¡¯s phone rang. Seeing the name of the caller, Yang Guang slapped his forehead and quickly answered the call. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Doggy. I have something to do, so I can¡¯t go and have a drink with you!¡± ¡°Call me Li Haotian!¡± After saying that, Li Haotian asked gloomily, ¡°Kid, you stood me up. We agreed to have a drink. I waited for you for the whole afternoon, but you didn¡¯t appear. Now you¡¯re telling me you don¡¯t have time?¡± ¡°I was a little busy and I forgot. Well, next time, I¡¯ll treat you to a seafood feast, okay?¡± Yang Guang said with an apologetic smile. ¡°That¡¯s more like it. I¡¯ll wait for you then. If you forget again, I¡¯ll go to your house to look for you!¡± Li Haotian said. ¡°Okay, no problem!¡± While Yang Guang was talking, three people came in from outside the private room. All of them were men. The man in the lead had a bit of white hair, but he looked to be less than 40 years old. He smiled at Li Jinyun as soon as he entered the room and said, ¡°Sorry, we are late!¡± ¡°No, we came earlier!¡± Li Jinyun smiled and stood up. ¡°President Wang, please sit here!¡± ¡°How is that appropriate? You¡¯re the county head. You should be the one sitting in the main seat!¡± Wang Xuezhi said with a smile. ¡°You¡¯re the guest of honor today. Of course, you can sit here. Don¡¯t stand on ceremony!¡± Li Jinyun said with a beaming face. ¡°Okay, then I won¡¯t stand on ceremony!¡± Wang Xuezhi smiled and sat down next to her. Among the other two people, one was a middle-aged man who was about the same age as him, and the other was a young man. As soon as these two people entered the door, their eyes never moved away from the faces of Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling, which made Yang Guang¡¯s heart sink! Chapter 135 - Negotiation Failed Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Let me introduce everyone!¡± After the three guests had taken their seats, Li Jinyun stood up and introduced them to each other. Yang Guang learned that Wang Xuezhi was the vice president of the County Bank. The other two people, one called Chen Jun and the other called Li Kai, were representatives sent by the venture capital investment company. The two parties first exchanged pleasantries. Then, Wang Xuezhi looked at Xu Ling and Qi Yingxue. ¡°These two young ladies are already managing such a big project at such a young age. They are really formidable juniors!¡± ¡°President Wang is too polite. We are all supporting roles. The one who is truly leading the construction of the scenic area is Yang Guang!¡± Qi Yingxue said with a polite smile. Actually, when they were introduced just now, Li Jinyun had already emphasized Yang Guang¡¯s identity. But unfortunately, the gazes of the three men had already been attracted by Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling. They were completely unwilling to look at Yang Guang! Although they were both men and Yang Guang could understand them, he was still a little displeased in his heart. He had a feeling that his possessions were being targeted by others. When Qi Yingxue said this, Wang Xuezhi only glanced at Yang Guang before continuing to look at Qi Yingxue. ¡°Miss Qi, you¡¯re so beautiful. Why haven¡¯t I heard of a girl like you in the county before?¡± ¡°Uh, maybe it¡¯s because we have different social circles, so we don¡¯t have common friends, right?¡± Qi Yingxue smiled, and her expression was a little unnatural. Wang Xuezhi nodded. ¡°That¡¯s true. Although the county isn¡¯t big, it has a lot of people. Not everyone can get to know each other!¡± After saying that, he suddenly said something shocking, ¡°It¡¯s not too late to make friends. Why don¡¯t we invite Miss Qi and Miss Xu to sit among us? Everyone can have a good chat!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Not only were Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling stunned, but even Li Jinyun was also stunned! Meanwhile, Chen Jun and Li Kai¡¯s eyes lit up. They immediately stood up and gave up their seats! The three of them separated, leaving two seats in the middle. It was just right for Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling to sit among the three of them. Yang Guang was anxious when he saw that. He thought to himself, ¡°Are you here to discuss investment or are you asking my two sisters to accompany you guys for drinks?¡± Seeing that Li Jinyun¡¯s expression did not look too good, but she did not know what to say. Yang Guang immediately stood up and said, ¡°You want to make friends, right? Let me make friends with you!¡± After saying that, he stood up. Under Wang Xuezhi¡¯s astonished gaze, he walked around the table and directly sat beside him! ¡°You¡­¡± Just as Wang Xuezhi¡¯s words were about to reach his mouth, Yang Guang immediately said, ¡°I like making friends the most. President Wang, I¡¯ll sit next to you. Let¡¯s have a good chat!¡± ¡°You?¡± Wang Xuezhi¡¯s expression changed, and then he frowned. ¡°Kid, don¡¯t you understand what I¡¯m saying? I want Miss Qi and Miss Xu to come over and sit here. You go to the side. It¡¯s none of your business here!¡± Seeing his change of expression, Yang Guang suppressed the anger in his heart. How would he meet such a person? Forget it, he would go all out and not take their investment. He couldn¡¯t let them do evil things! These three perverts clearly had no good intentions. They were about to drool when they saw Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling, Yang Guang naturally wouldn¡¯t agree to let them sit over! Hence, after sneering, he turned to look at Li Jinyun. ¡°County Head Li, this is your classmate? You don¡¯t seem to know much about him either?¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Li Jinyun¡¯s face turned red, and her heart was instantly filled with guilt! Hence, she hurriedly explained, ¡°President Wang and I were high school classmates. After graduating, we barely had any contact. A while ago, I just happened to hear that he was also in this county¡­¡± Originally, Yang Guang did not want to seek an explanation from her. When he heard these words, he immediately nodded. ¡°So that¡¯s how it is. Then, I¡¯ve misunderstood!¡± After saying that, he looked at Wang Xuezhi. ¡°President Wang, I cannot sit next to you, but it¡¯s impossible for Sister Yingxue and Sister Ling to sit beside you too. We are here to talk about investment cooperation today, not a social gathering!¡± ¡°Is that so?¡± Wang Xuezhi sneered and sized him up before sneering. ¡°A brat who is still wet behind the ears. He doesn¡¯t know the rules at all!¡± After saying that, he raised his head to look at Chen Jun. ¡°Old Chen, now you know more about this young man?¡± ¡°Yes, I do!¡± Chen Jun¡¯s face was also filled with displeasure. He understood that Wang Xuezhi was hinting at him. Since the other party did not know what was good for him, then fine, he could only teach him a lesson! Hence, Chen Jun looked at Yang Guang. ¡°Yang Guang, right? I¡¯m the business representative of Fenghua Investment. I have a few questions regarding your scenic area!¡± ¡°Sure!¡± Yang Guang was not stupid. He had already seen through his intentions, so he suppressed his anger and nodded. Chen Jun sneered. ¡°Did you get the approval of the Tourism Bureau for your scenic area?¡± ¡°It¡¯s still in the process of being processed. They will get it very soon!¡± Li Jinyun immediately said. Chen Jun made an ¡°oh¡± sound and then asked, ¡°Mr. Yang, what¡¯s the personnel structure of your scenic area management company? Are there any professional management talents among the members? What are their academic qualifications?¡± ¡°Well, the company hasn¡¯t started recruiting yet,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Alright, then let me ask you again. Have you made the management plan for the scenic area? Have you made the logistics support, emergency response plan, and peak diversion plan?¡± Chen Jun asked. Yang Guang remained silent. Although he knew that the other party was deliberately looking for trouble, he really couldn¡¯t answer! So after a moment of silence, he could only smile bitterly. ¡°No!¡± Chen Jun took a deep breath. ¡°Is that so? Then I¡¯m very sorry. We can¡¯t agree to your scenic area¡¯s investment!¡± Wang Xuezhi also said, ¡°So there¡¯s nothing at all. Then wouldn¡¯t it become a three-nil company? It¡¯s impossible for our bank to invest in such a company!¡± When they said this, Li Jinyun and Qi Yingxue¡¯s hearts sank! Their original plan was to rely on the investment of these two parties to operate the scenic area. However, it was about to fall apart! When she thought of this, Qi Yingxue bit her lip and stood up. ¡°Yang Guang, come over and sit. I¡¯ll go over and have a chat with President Wang and Representative Chen.¡± When Xu Ling heard that, she made up her mind and stood up as well! Yang Guang¡¯s brows were knitted together. Especially when he saw that the two ladies were willing to sit with these three perverts for the sake of the scenic area, he felt as if his heart was being stabbed by a knife! Hence, he immediately stood up and said to the two of them, ¡°No need. You two sit down. We don¡¯t want this investment anymore!¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Qi Yingxue was stunned. She originally thought that there was still room for maneuver in the matter, but she did not expect Yang Guang to directly reject it. While he was stunned, Wang Xuezhi sneered and looked at Yang Guang. ¡°Young Man, you have a lot of backbone. Then I want to see what will happen to your scenic area without the investment!¡± Yang Guang sneered. ¡°Without your rotten eggs, I can still make a pot cake!¡± ¡°You!¡± Wang Xuezhi did not expect that he would dare to curse in front of him and was instantly stunned. At this time, Chen Jun sneered, ¡°Kid, don¡¯t be overconfident. It¡¯s summer now. You only have a four-month construction period at most.. Would it be possible for you to get 200 million in such a short time? Don¡¯t tell me you want to rob a bank?¡± Chapter 136 - Got Lost Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang sneered. Looking at the other party¡¯s face, he actually felt an unspeakable sense of disgust, especially after listening to Chen Jun¡¯s words. So he looked at the other party and said coldly, ¡°I¡¯m not bragging. Getting two hundred million in four months is indeed very difficult for me, but I can¡¯t help it. I don¡¯t have any other advantages, but I¡¯m upright!¡± Pausing for a moment, Yang Guang pointed at Chen Jun and said, ¡°You want to use money to crush me? Stop dreaming!¡± ¡°Brother Wang, what¡¯s going on? We came here with good intentions to invest, but in the end, we became the bad guys?¡± Chen Jun spread his hands toward Wang Xuezhi with an innocent look! Wang Xuezhi was also unhappy. He turned to look at Li Jinyun and said, ¡°Jinyun, why did you find such an unreliable young man? Fortunately, we didn¡¯t make the decision immediately. Otherwise, even if we invested, we would have been fooled!¡± ¡°Stop being so hypocritical!¡± Yang Guang sneered and said loudly, ¡°What I took is not your money. It is all the assets of your organization. You are just the executors. Stop putting on airs. Don¡¯t think that everyone would bow before money!¡± ¡°If you say so, then there is no point in talking. Let¡¯s go!¡± After being refuted by Yang Guang, Wang Xuezhi¡¯s face turned pale, and he was so angry that his body was trembling. Seeing that he was about to leave, Li Jinyun stood up as well. ¡°Take care. I won¡¯t see you out!¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Wang Xuezhi originally thought that when he said he was leaving, she would ask him to stay for a while. He did not expect such a scene. After being stunned, he looked at Li Jinyun. ¡°Jinyun, you don¡¯t want our investment anymore?¡± ¡°Yang Guang is right. The most important thing in life is to have integrity. You are the investors, but you are not our God. If there are some things that can be discussed, we can discuss them. If there are things that can¡¯t be discussed, I don¡¯t want Yang Guang and the others to compromise either!¡± Li Jinyun said calmly. No matter what, she was still the county head. When he heard this, Wang Xuezhi hesitated for a moment. However, he had already said that he wanted to leave. It was like an arrow in the bow that had to be released. Therefore, he still nodded. ¡°Alright then. I will talk to you privately later. Let¡¯s meet another day!¡± ¡°No need!¡± Li Jinyun shook her head. ¡°I am very busy with work. I won¡¯t have time to see you!¡± ¡°You¡­¡± Wang Xuezhi was stunned. He didn¡¯t expect her to be so protective of Yang Guang. But on second thought, he thought to himself, ¡°Forget it. After all, my banking system is not suppressed by your position, so I¡¯m not afraid of you giving me a hard time in the future!¡± Then, he turned around and said to Chen Jun and Li Kai, ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡± ¡°What bad luck. If I knew this would happen, why would I rush here from the provincial capital?¡± Chen Jun shook his head and grumbled as he walked out. However, Yang Guang was unhappy when he heard his words. He reached out and stopped him. ¡°What did you say? Bad luck? I only feel bad when I meet a person like you, okay?¡± ¡°You, you better watch what you say!¡± Chen Jun¡¯s face turned red. He pointed at Yang Guang¡¯s nose and said angrily. ¡°Bang!¡± Yang Guang directly opened his hand. ¡°What should I pay attention to when I criticize an old pervert like you?¡± ¡°Fine, you dare to hit me!¡± Chen Jun was so embarrassed that he flew into a rage. He raised his hand and was about to hit Yang Guang! ¡°Stop!¡± Li Jinyun could not take it anymore. After a loud shout, she quickly walked up to Chen Jun and raised her hand to give Chen Jun a slap! ¡°You, you!¡± Chen Jun was hit so hard that his eyes started to see stars. He covered half of his face in fear and pointed at Li Jinyun, unable to speak! ¡°This is not a place for you to behave atrociously. Get out of here immediately!¡± Li Jinyun said angrily. The beautiful and generous county head suddenly unleashed her power, shocking Chen Jun and Wang Xuezhi. ¡°Alright, the county head also hit people. Just you wait!¡± Chen Jun¡¯s face couldn¡¯t hold it anymore. He was embarrassed and angry! Li Jinyun sneered, ¡°I¡¯m not waiting, you wait. Is the boss of your investment company called Wei Lan? I¡¯ll tell her what happened just now. Let¡¯s see who will be in big trouble!¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Chen Jun¡¯s body trembled, and then his eyes immediately widened. ¡°You know President Wei?¡± ¡°Not only do we know each other, we were university classmates. We lived in the same dormitory for four years!¡± Li Jinyun said coldly. ¡°Err¡­¡± Chen Jun¡¯s legs suddenly softened. He knew very well whether he was in the wrong or not. Previously, he thought that if he came to a small county town and held an astronomical amount of money, wouldn¡¯t the other party treat him as a god of wealth after he came? With this kind of mentality, he had a devious idea when he saw Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling. He thought that he could use money to force the other party to submit! In the end, reality was cruel. Not only was he rejected, but the other party also knew his boss! While he was in a daze, Li Jinyun said to Yang Guang and the others, ¡°It¡¯s all my fault today. Let¡¯s not stay here anymore. Let¡¯s go somewhere else to eat!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Qi Yingxue nodded. She knew that there was no turning back now since things had gotten to this point. Hence, the group of people ignored Chen Jun and the others and left the private room. After everyone had left, Chen Jun came back to his senses and looked at Wang Xuezhi beside him. ¡°Old Wang, I¡¯m doomed by you this time!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t listen to her lies. So what if they know each other? Don¡¯t you know how to defend yourself? We were just trying to make joke in the first place. The other party couldn¡¯t afford it, and instead, they immediately turned hostile. Is that the attitude of closing a business deal?¡± Wang Xuezhi sneered and continued, ¡°There¡¯s no right or wrong in this kind of thing. Are you really scared?¡± With that said, Chen Jun thought about it and felt that it made sense. He smiled bitterly and said, ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll explain it to President Wei later.¡± Then, he asked, ¡°Then what should we do now?¡± Wang Xuezhi chuckled and said, ¡°I know a nightclub in the county town. The girls there are all young and beautiful. Come with me. I¡¯ll give you compensation tonight!¡± When he heard this, Chen Jun¡¯s face immediately stopped hurting. Then, the three of them forgot what had just happened and left with a wink. Qi Yingxue drove the car and left the hotel with Yang Guang and the others. Soon, they arrived at her restaurant. After a fight, they were no longer in the mood to eat anywhere else. It was more comfortable to eat in their own territory. After they went upstairs, Li Jinyun said to her, ¡°Although it¡¯s your restaurant, you can count the expenses tonight on my head!¡± ¡°That won¡¯t do. For the sake of the scenic area, you¡¯ve helped us a lot. This meal should be on me!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°No, I¡¯ll pay!¡± ¡°No, it should be on me!¡± The two women argued. Yang Guang saw the situation and quickly said, ¡°We can talk about this after we finish eating. I¡¯m a little hungry!¡± ¡°Right, right, we¡¯ll talk after we finish eating!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and quickly asked the waiter to bring the menu. At this moment, Li Jinyun suggested, ¡°Everyone is not in a good mood.. Why don¡¯t we drink some wine?¡± Chapter 137 - A False Alarm Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling had no objections and both nodded. Seeing this, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t say anything, so he remained silent. The dishes and wine were quickly served. Li Jinyun raised her wine glass and said to him, Qi Yingxue, and Xu Ling, ¡°For today¡¯s matter, it¡¯s my fault for not thinking properly. I hope everyone won¡¯t be angry.¡± ¡°Sister Yun, you¡¯re thinking too much. It wasn¡¯t your fault in the first place. They were too rude!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Yes!¡± Li Jinyun nodded and then sighed. ¡°If I knew they were like this, I wouldn¡¯t have let you participate.¡± ¡°It¡¯s fine. Just treat it as experiencing the dark side of society!¡± Xu Ling smiled and said, ¡°County Head Li, let me toast to you. Thank you for your hard work!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t call me that in private. Just call me Sister Yun!¡± Li Jinyun smiled and reached out to clink glasses with her. Seeing that the three women seemed to have a lot on their minds, Yang Guang hurriedly said, ¡°Alright, don¡¯t think about it. It¡¯s just two hundred million. I can get it!¡± ¡°You, stop bragging. It¡¯s not two hundred or two thousand. The amount is so big. Let¡¯s slowly think of a way!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Actually, there¡¯s still a way. We don¡¯t need the bank¡¯s funds. I¡¯ll give Wei Lan a call later. Once she knows what¡¯s going on, she¡¯ll naturally reconsider the investment!¡± Li Jinyun said. ¡°Sister Yun, I appreciate your kindness, but even if Wei Lan personally intervenes and changes her decision, I don¡¯t plan on using their money!¡± Yang Guang said. Hearing this, the three women were stunned! Xu Ling¡¯s eyes widened, ¡°Why?¡± ¡°It¡¯s better to beg myself than to beg others. I finally understand that people in this world are evil. Rather than handing over my life to others, I should think of a way myself!¡± Yang Guang smiled. Li Jinyun looked at him, ¡°Don¡¯t think too much. My classmate is a pretty good person. She definitely won¡¯t be like Chen Jun!¡± ¡°Sister Yun, I¡¯ve thought about it. Chen Jun¡¯s series of questions just now were correct. The preparation work for the scenic area is not perfect yet. If the venture capital funds were really attracted, it would be because of the relationship between the two of us. Therefore, I don¡¯t want to owe too many favors!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Well¡­¡± When Li Jinyun heard this, she could only helplessly laugh bitterly. ¡°What you said makes sense. However, I still hope that you can consider venture capital. Anyway, there¡¯s still time. We can talk about it slowly!¡± ¡°No need.¡± Yang Guang smiled and his attitude was very firm, ¡°I will not change what I have decided. Thank you Sister Yun for your good intentions!¡± ¡°Alright, let¡¯s not talk about this for now. Aren¡¯t you hungry? Hurry up and eat!¡± Qi Yingxue said this and then picked up some food for Yang Guang. After that, during the meal, everyone did not talk about Wang Xuezhi and Chen Jun anymore. They talked about the future of Qingshan Village and the development of the scenic area. They threw all the unhappy things to the back of their minds. Everyone drank a little, but no one was drunk. In the end, it was Li Jinyun who wanted to pay the bill. However, Qi Yingxue waived the bill, so they didn¡¯t continue to argue. After watching Li Jinyun get into the car and leave, Qi Yingxue turned to look at Yang Guang and Xu Ling. ¡°It¡¯s late. You guys should go back and rest too, right?¡± ¡°Sister, aren¡¯t you coming? Why don¡¯t you come with me to the hotel and we can talk tonight?¡± Xu Ling asked. ¡°Hmm¡­¡± Qi Yingxue turned around and looked at the restaurant. At this time, there were not many guests in the lobby on the first floor. Most of the guests had already eaten and left after paying the bill. Seeing that the business was not busy anymore, she turned around and said, ¡°Okay, let¡¯s go together!¡± The hotel was not very far away, and the three of them did not take a taxi. They just walked over there in the evening wind. Xu Ling and Qi Yingxue held each other¡¯s arms while Yang Guang walked beside them. They finally felt a little better. However, Yang Guang¡¯s heart sank when he thought about how he was going to get 200 million yuan. He boasted in front of the girls, but in reality, he had no good solution. How did he get so much money? It was less than four months! After thinking about it, other than his own medical skills, there was nothing else he could count on. Therefore, Yang Guang decided to get some medicinal herbs when he went back the next day and refine some medicine with miraculous effects. Then, he would take them to the hospital to sell! If he met a rich person, he would first extort a few hundred thousand from him! While his thoughts were running wild, he did not realize that Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling had already walked far away and left him behind. When the roar of a motorcycle was heard, Yang Guang looked up and saw a bright light shining on the two girls, charging straight at them! Xu Ling and Qi Yingxue were temporarily blinded by the strong light. They both lowered their heads and covered their eyes. They could not see clearly that the motorcycle was charging at them! ¡°F*ck!¡± Yang Guang cried out in surprise. With the tip of his foot touching the ground, he was shot out like a cannonball! While he was in mid-air, Yang Guang slightly leaned back and his two legs kicked towards the top of the ray of light! ¡°Bang!¡± With a muffled sound, Yang Guang felt his feet kick on something soft and his heart relaxed! ¡°Crash!¡± The motorcycle lost control and directly ran off course. It crashed into a shop by the roadside and the glass was instantly shattered. Yang Guang fell to the ground and jumped up. He turned to look at Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling. Seeing that the two girls were unharmed, he heaved a sigh of relief. ¡°Yang Guang, are you alright?¡± The two of them ran over and sized him up. ¡°I¡¯m fine.¡± Yang Guang felt a little pain in his butt, but he did not care. He turned to look at the person he had kicked away and walked over. This person was groaning on the ground. The kick just now was very firm, and the motorcycle was fast. Under mutual force, this person was directly knocked unconscious. Yang Guang did not care about that. He reached out and lifted the person, then slapped him! ¡°Speak, who ordered you to do this!¡± Yang Guang¡¯s expression was stern as he shouted loudly. ¡°This person is obviously drunk. He probably didn¡¯t do it on purpose!¡± Qi Yingxue said. Looking at that person, Yang Guang indeed smelled alcohol. Hence, he frowned. ¡°Sister, call the police.¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Qi Yingxue nodded and took out her phone. Although it was late at night, there were still pedestrians and vehicles passing by. When they saw that something had happened here, some people surrounded them. When they figured out what had happened, everyone was filled with disgust towards the motorcyclist! If it wasn¡¯t for the fact that this guy was so dazed that he couldn¡¯t even stand properly, some people would have wanted to beat him up. The police quickly rushed over. They looked at the scene and asked Yang Guang about the specific details. The matter was basically sorted out. After that, Yang Guang and the others didn¡¯t need to follow them to investigate. The police took the drunk man and the motorbike away. The crowd dispersed and the three of them continued to walk in the direction of the hotel. Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling felt a little scared. At this moment, Yang Guang suddenly said, ¡°Sis, can you help me take a look? Why is my butt getting more and more painful?¡± Chapter 138 - A Wooden Stick Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Qi Yingxue went behind Yang Guang when she heard that. After taking a look, her eyes immediately widened. Xu Ling followed and took a look. She also let out a cry of surprise! Yang Guang reached out and touched his butt. He asked with some doubt, ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Isn¡¯t it just that my pants are torn?¡± He could clearly feel that there was a palm-sized hole in his pants. However, he did not feel anything when he touched the skin on his butt. Therefore, he was very puzzled. He did not know why the two women were surprised. ¡°You, you are¡­¡± Looking at Yang Guang¡¯s bruised skin, Qi Yingxue had a look of surprise. ¡°Did something pierce into it?¡± Xu Ling asked. ¡°It could be!¡± Qi Yingxue nodded. ¡°The skin is bruised. Something must have pierced into the skin and bled!¡± ¡°No way! Why can¡¯t I feel it?¡± Yang Guang endured the pain and carefully pinched his buttocks. ¡°Stop touching it. Hurry to the hospital!¡± Qi Yingxue was anxious. She turned around and looked around, wanting to hail a taxi. However, the more she needed a taxi, the less car passed by. Xu Ling reminded her at this moment, ¡°You can¡¯t call a taxi. His buttocks are injured. He can¡¯t sit at all!¡± ¡°Oh right, I¡¯ll call an ambulance!¡± Qi Yingxue hurriedly took out her phone and dialed 120. While waiting for the ambulance to arrive, Xu Ling looked at Yang Guang and then at the anxious Qi Yingxue. For some reason, she couldn¡¯t help but burst out laughing. When she laughed, Qi Yingxue couldn¡¯t help but laugh as well. Yang Guang looked at the two of them as if he was a dumb goose. ¡°What are you laughing at?¡± ¡°So you¡¯re not omnipotent. You can get hurt too?¡± Xu Ling said with a smile and added, ¡°Don¡¯t be angry. Although it¡¯s to save us and I¡¯m very grateful to you, I still find it funny that your butt got hurt!¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Yang Guang was a little speechless. He looked at her and said, ¡°Fortunately, it¡¯s just my butt. If it were somewhere else, I don¡¯t know if you would still be able to laugh!¡± Xu Ling was stunned. ¡°Where?¡± Yang Guang chuckled and did not continue. Qi Yingxue, who was beside him, heard it. Her face turned slightly red and she secretly rolled her eyes at him. The ambulance rushed over with the emergency flashing. Then, the medical staff got out of the ambulance and looked at the three of them in a daze. ¡°Did you call the ambulance?¡± ¡°Yes!¡± Qi Yingxue nodded. The doctor gave an ¡°Oh¡± and then asked, ¡°Where are the injured people?¡± Yang Guang raised his hand. ¡°I am!¡± The doctor was stunned for a moment and looked at him up and down. ¡°Where are you injured?¡± ¡°My butt!¡± Yang Guang said this and walked towards the ambulance. ¡°There¡¯s no need to lift me. I can climb up the ambulance myself.¡± ¡°¡­¡± When he got into the ambulance and saw the wound on Yang Guang¡¯s butt, the doctor came to his senses and immediately exclaimed, ¡°No way! How can you be injured like this?¡± ¡°Doctor, what¡¯s wrong with my buttocks?¡± Yang Guang leaned on the stretcher and turned around to ask. ¡°There¡¯s a round hole. There should be a bamboo stick stuck in it. It might be the kind used for barbeque!¡± The doctor said. After being speechless, Yang Guang could not help but curse, ¡°D*mn it, who was so immoral? Throwing a stick on the road!¡± ¡°It¡¯s strange. How did you get injured?¡± The doctor asked curiously when he saw the two pretty girls in front of him could not help but chuckle. After listening to Qi Yingxue¡¯s story, he finally understood. Then, he nodded and said, ¡°Young Man, you are really unlucky!¡± ¡°You are absolutely right. Doesn¡¯t a hero always have a good ending after saving a beauty? Why am I so unlucky?¡± Yang Guang looked depressed. Then, he asked, ¡°Doctor, I don¡¯t need surgery on this, right?¡± ¡°It¡¯s not necessary. Just a small incision will do. However, your injury won¡¯t recover well. I¡¯m afraid you¡¯ll have to lie down for some time!¡± The doctor said. ¡°As long as you don¡¯t cut my butt in half, there won¡¯t be any problems. I¡¯ll be fine very soon!¡± Yang Guang was still confident in his medical skills. The ambulance went straight to the hospital, and then he was sent to the surgical ward. The night shift doctors had never heard of such a bizarre injury or the cause for it, so they all came over to watch the show. Regardless of whether it was a man or a woman, many people admired Yang Guang¡¯s butt. After that, they did not send him to the operating theater. The surgeon directly treated Yang Guang in the treatment room. It was a three-centimeter-long wooden stick. It had pierced more than a centimeter into Yang Guang¡¯s butt, which was why he could not touch it. After the doctor took it out, he applied anti-inflammatory medicine and bandaged it properly, the doctor said to Yang Guang, ¡°Logically speaking, there¡¯s no need for you to be hospitalized for this minor injury. However, I¡¯m afraid that you can¡¯t walk now, and you won¡¯t be able to take a taxi when you go home. I suggest that you stay in the hospital for a night!¡± ¡°No need. I¡¯ve booked a room in a hotel. Wouldn¡¯t it be a loss if I don¡¯t stay there?¡± Yang Guang climbed down from the hospital bed and tried to take a step. Then, he said in surprise, ¡°Eh, it doesn¡¯t hurt at all!¡± ¡°Uh, that¡¯s because you¡¯ve been injected with an anesthetic!¡± The doctor said speechlessly. ¡°Sure, let¡¯s take advantage of the anesthetic to quickly take a taxi to the hotel!¡± Yang Guang said this and walked away! The doctor was even more speechless, thinking how stingy this person was. He didn¡¯t even care about his injuries just because the hotel¡¯s money should not be wasted? When he walked out, he saw Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling returning after paying the hospital bill. When the two saw him coming out, they asked at the same time, ¡°What are you doing?¡± ¡°Let¡¯s take advantage of the anesthetic to get back to the hotel. I can¡¯t stay in the hospital!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Why?¡± Xu Ling was puzzled and immediately asked. ¡°It¡¯s more convenient in the hotel. I have to prepare the medicine myself tomorrow. Their medicine takes too long to take effect. I don¡¯t have that much time!¡± Yang Guang said as he walked. Seeing that he was anxious, Xu Ling and Qi Yingxue followed him and asked, ¡°Are you sure you can hold on until you return to the hotel?¡± ¡°I¡¯m sure!¡± ¡°Alright then.¡± The two women did not know how to dissuade him. Moreover, seeing that he was insistent, they did not say anything more. After leaving the hospital building, they came to the main entrance. A few taxis were waiting for customers. Yang Guang waved his hand and immediately, one of them came over. He got into the car and reported the address. Yang Guang only had one request, to leave quickly! When the driver saw that he had brought two beautiful ladies, he thought to himself, ¡°This kid is quite capable. No wonder he is in such a hurry to go to the hotel. If it were me, I would also be in a hurry too!¡± Therefore, he stepped on the gas pedal and the taxi rushed onto the street with a whoosh. A few minutes later, he felt a pain in his buttocks. The car had also arrived at the hotel. When he reached the elevator, Yang Guang was already limping as he walked. Gritting his teeth and hissing as he sucked in a breath of cold air, he still persevered to the door of his room. Xu Ling and Qi Yingxue looked at each other. Neither of them said anything, but they followed him into the room. Yang Guang lay on the bed and immediately did not move. ¡°Now I¡¯m comfortable.¡± ¡°You can¡¯t do this. Your pants will easily wear off the gauze!¡± Qi Yingxue said this and reached out to grab his belt! Chapter 139 - He Yu Came Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Qi Yingxue¡¯s intentions were good, but it was a very ambiguous act, so her face still turned red. Yang Guang couldn¡¯t see it, so he knew that she was doing it for his own good. So he reached out and undid his belt. Then, he felt that Qi Yingxue had helped him pull down his pants. Previously, when he was treating his wound, his boxers had been cut by the doctor and thrown away. Now, Yang Guang¡¯s entire lower body was bare. He could not cover it with a blanket. If he did that, it would be no different from not taking off his pants. Therefore, Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling¡¯s faces were red. They did not know where to put their eyes! In the end, Qi Yingxue had no choice but to say, ¡°Well, Yang Guang, you should rest first. We¡¯ll go back!¡± ¡°Oh, Alright.¡± Yang Guang¡¯s butt was in pain. He was not in the mood to think about other things. He turned his head and watched the two of them leave. After the door closed, Yang Guang sucked in a breath of cold air. Then, he muttered, ¡°Don¡¯t let me see that drunk guy. Otherwise, I won¡¯t be done with him!¡± After a while, fatigue struck him. Although he still felt pain in his buttocks, he slowly fell asleep in a daze. He slept until dawn. When he heard the door ring, Yang Guang woke up immediately. He did not look to see if it was Qi Yingxue or Xu Ling. He mumbled, ¡°Sis, can you order me breakfast? I¡¯m hungry.¡± There was no movement behind him, but there was the sound of someone laughing. Yang Guang was stunned for a moment. When he turned around, he was instantly stunned. The person who came was not Qi Yingxue or Xu Ling, but He Yu! When he saw her and remembered that he was still naked, Yang Guang was immediately embarrassed. ¡°Hey, why is it you?¡± ¡°Are you surprised?¡± He Yu was much better, and her face shape was not as round as before. She did not seem to care that Yang Guang was not wearing pants, she walked over to the bedside. ¡°I rushed over early in the morning to look for you, but I heard that you were injured, so I came to take a look!¡± ¡°Then what about my Sister Ling and the others?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°They went to buy breakfast!¡± He Yu sat down on the small sofa by the bed and said with a smile, ¡°Yang Guang, you¡¯re really something. You¡¯re a hero who saved a damsel in distress and got hurt. You¡¯ve provoked two beautiful women to feel so sorry for you. You¡¯re really lucky!¡± ¡°Uh, do you think I want to get hurt?¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and then asked, ¡°Right, how did you know I am here?¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t that simple? I looked for Mu Xiaowan, asked for Qi Yingxue¡¯s number, and then asked her!¡± He Yu said. ¡°Is there a need to beat around the bush like that?¡± Yang Guang was a little speechless. ¡°Can¡¯t you just call me directly?¡± ¡°I wanted to give you a surprise. Look at me now. Am I not quite the same as last time?¡± He Yu stood up, turned around, and asked happily. ¡°You look a little better, but you¡¯re still a little fat!¡± Yang Guang looked at her and told her the truth. ¡°You really don¡¯t know how to talk!¡± He Yu was a little unhappy. She rolled her eyes at him and then continued, ¡°Forget it. Seeing that you¡¯re injured, I¡¯ll let you go. I came today especially to thank you!¡± ¡°Are you showing your gratitude empty-handed?¡± Yang Guang knew that she came from a wealthy family, so he asked with a smile. ¡°Of course not. Wait!¡± After He Yu said that, she walked out of the room. Not long after, she came back with a suitcase and placed it directly in front of Yang Guang. As he was lying on the bed, his sight was on the same level as the suitcase. ¡°Is there money inside?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Why don¡¯t you open it and see?¡± He Yu smiled. Yang Guang could still move his hands. He opened the locks on both sides and opened the lid of the suitcase. Immediately, a red light flashed in front of his eyes! The suitcase was indeed full of red banknotes. Yang Guang¡¯s eyes kept staring at it. ¡°Err, how much money is this?¡± ¡°One million!¡± He Yu said, then asked, ¡°How is it? Am I generous enough?¡± Yang Guang clicked his tongue. ¡°You¡¯re really generous. You¡¯re too generous!¡± He Yu smiled. ¡°My condition has improved a lot. You deserve it!¡± ¡°Then I won¡¯t be polite. It just so happens that I¡¯m short of money recently!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and closed the suitcase. He rested his head on it as if he was afraid that someone would snatch it away. He Yu asked curiously, ¡°Are you short of money? What do you need money for?¡± ¡°It¡¯s a long story.¡± Yang Guang was about to talk about the scenic area when Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling entered the room together. Both of them were carrying a few bags filled with a few types of breakfast. Seeing that Yang Guang was still naked, the two of them quickly looked away. Qi Yingxue then asked, ¡°How do you feel after a night?¡± ¡°I¡¯m alright. It doesn¡¯t hurt that much, but the recovery speed is really too slow. Later, please go and buy some Chinese medicine for me. I¡¯ll mix it myself. I¡¯ll be fine today!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Okay, eat first. I¡¯ll go and get the medicine for you later.¡± Qi Yingxue nodded and placed the breakfast on the bedside table. Yang Guang couldn¡¯t turn over, so she and Xu Ling helped to feed the porridge and serve the pickled vegetables. They were very considerate. He Yu watched from the side and could not help but tease, ¡°Yang Guang, you are now a meritorious subject. This kind of feeling, I¡¯m afraid you won¡¯t even exchange it with a god, right?¡± Yang Guang looked at her and rolled his eyes. ¡°I didn¡¯t realize you were so talkative last time.¡± ¡°Maybe my mood has improved after my illness recovered?¡± He Yu chuckled, stood up, and said, ¡°Alright, I won¡¯t be in the way anymore. If you need any medicinal herbs, I¡¯ll go buy them for you!¡± ¡°Then I¡¯ll have to trouble you!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Don¡¯t mention it. He¡¯s my benefactor. This is something I should do!¡± He Yu said. After taking the prescription given by Yang Guang, she turned around and left. While feeding the porridge, Qi Yingxue asked curiously, ¡°How do you know her?¡± ¡°I met her when I attended a wedding with Mu Xiaowan last time.¡± Yang Guang was almost done with his meal and he told them how he met He Yu. After listening to him, Qi Yingxue nodded and said, ¡°She has an extraordinary status. Since she said that you are her benefactor, I think it¡¯s better to¡­¡± Yang Guang knew what she meant and shook his head. ¡°Sister, don¡¯t talk about it. She has already given me a million yuan in gratitude. I don¡¯t want to talk to her about money anymore. It¡¯s better for me to think of a way on my own!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Qi Yingxue was speechless. She glared at him and said, ¡°Why are you so stubborn?¡± ¡°It¡¯s not stubbornness, it¡¯s my principle. I don¡¯t want to owe a favor!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°But what if we can¡¯t raise that much money in four months? Don¡¯t tell me the scenic area is going to be abandoned?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. Yang Guang looked at her. ¡°Who said we can¡¯t raise it? Do you want to make a bet?¡± ¡°What bet?¡± He Yu¡¯s voice was heard. Then, she appeared in the room with a bag of Chinese medicine. ¡°You came at the right time. Yang Guang said that he could earn 200 million in four months. Do you think that¡¯s possible?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. He Yu was stunned. Then, she looked at Yang Guang.. ¡°Are you dreaming? If you can do it, I dare to run naked!¡± Chapter 140 - Bet Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio He Yu¡¯s words were shocking. Not only was Yang Guang stunned, Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling were also dumbfounded. Both of them did not expect that this young lady was really straightforward! If it were them, Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling would definitely not say that they would run around naked! ¡°Are you serious?¡± Yang Guang looked at He Yu with a stunned expression. ¡°That¡¯s right. I don¡¯t believe that you can do it. That¡¯s why I dared to place such a big bet!¡± He Yu said. ¡°Then you¡¯re in trouble. I can definitely do it. Just get ready to run around naked!¡± Yang Guang chuckled, his eyes narrowing from laughter! His smile was extremely wretched. He Yu was furious after seeing it, so she turned her head to look at Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling. ¡°Help me testify. I¡¯m definitely going to make this bet!¡± After saying that, she turned to look at Yang Guang. ¡°If I lose, I¡¯ll run naked. What about you? What will you do if you lose?¡± ¡°I¡¯ll run naked too!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Bah, who wants to look at you!¡± He Yu rolled her eyes and said, ¡°If you lose, you¡¯ll call me great-aunt in the future!¡± Yang Guang¡¯s stubborn temper also rose. He nodded without saying anything. ¡°No problem. This bet is set!¡± Xu Ling and Qi Yingxue looked at each other. The two of them were speechless at the same time. ¡°Aren¡¯t you going to make the medicine? Why are we talking about a bet?¡± Qi Yingxue asked with a bitter smile. ¡°Oh, right. If you didn¡¯t say it, I would have forgotten!¡± Yang Guang scratched his head and took the Chinese medicine from He Yu¡¯s hands. Then, he said, ¡°You guys go to the other room first. I need to be quiet.¡± ¡°It¡¯s like someone wants to learn from you!¡± He Yu rolled her eyes and turned around to leave. Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling were not surprised. They nodded and left the room. Yang Guang did not want to waste too much time because of his butt, so he quickly refined the medicine. After making some ointment, he applied it to his wound. A cool feeling came over. Soon, the wound began to feel numb and itchy. The wound was recovering rapidly. Having recovered from the scar and forgotten about the pain, Yang Guang¡¯s mood instantly improved. He could not help but hum a little tune. However, at this moment, his phone suddenly rang. It was an unknown number. After being stunned for a moment, Yang Guang picked up the call. ¡°Who is it?¡± ¡°I¡¯m Dr. Hu. Yang Guang, did you forget about our bet?¡± The voice on the phone carried a sneer. Yang Guang was stunned for a moment, then he remembered what happened at the hospital, so he chuckled, ¡°I didn¡¯t forget. Is today the day?¡± ¡°You still said you didn¡¯t forget? It¡¯s going to expire soon!¡± Dr. Hu sneered and then asked, ¡°Are you not confident and don¡¯t dare to come?¡± ¡°What are you talking about? You¡¯re definitely going to call me teacher, do you understand?¡± Yang Guang shook his head helplessly and said seriously, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll definitely come to town this afternoon!¡± ¡°You said it yourself. If you don¡¯t come, don¡¯t blame me for going to Qingshan Village to look for you personally. I¡¯ll expose your bragging in front of the villagers!¡± Dr. Hu said. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll definitely come. Get ready to call me ¡®teacher¡¯!¡± Yang Guang hung up the phone and touched his buttocks. He found that he didn¡¯t feel any pain, so he immediately got up. After all, he was still recovering, so if he moved, his butt would still feel a little pain. However, this kind of pain was completely bearable, so Yang Guang quickly put on his pants while no one was around. Then, he tidied up and took the one million He Yu gave him. He quickly walked out of the door and went straight to Xu Ling¡¯s room. He knocked on the door and saw that Xu Ling was a little surprised. Yang Guang quickly said, ¡°Sister, Dr. Hu urged me to complete the bet with him. Let¡¯s go home!¡± ¡°Ah? So urgent. Your injury?¡± Xu Ling looked down and saw that he had already put on his clothes. She immediately asked worriedly. ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. I can walk, run, and even jump!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°So fast?¡± Xu Ling couldn¡¯t believe it. At this time, Qi Yingxue and He Yu also came out. Seeing that Yang Guang was about to leave, they hurriedly asked. When she found out that he was going to fulfill the previous bet with Dr. Hu, Qi Yingxue smiled and said, ¡°Then I¡¯ll go with you. After all, it¡¯s because of my injury. I can show him my condition now!¡± ¡°Okay, then I¡¯ll trouble Sister Xue to make a trip.¡± Yang Guang nodded and turned to leave. In the end, He Yu was unhappy and asked coldly, ¡°Hey, what about me?¡± ¡°You? Aren¡¯t you already fine? You can go back now!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°F*ck, no way!¡± He Yu rolled her eyes and said in a speechless manner, ¡°You¡¯re extremely attentive when facing two beautiful women. Aren¡¯t you being too realistic to ignore me?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t be so unconfident. You¡¯re also a beauty, but you¡¯re just a little fatter!¡± Yang Guang laughed. ¡°Stop arguing. Miss He, if you want to go, just come with me!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°No need. All of you can take my car. My car is big!¡± He Yu seemed to really want to participate. She directly suggested that everyone take her car to Hongqi Town. Yang Guang didn¡¯t have any objections. Last time, he had only stayed in the car, but he had never experienced what it felt like to ride in that car. Qi Yingxue hesitated for a moment before agreeing. In any case, He Yu would be back, so they could take her car when the time came. Hence, everyone left the hotel. After settling the room fees, they went to the parking lot together. After boarding the car, the driver followed He Yu¡¯s instructions and left, heading straight towards Hongqi Town. He Yu was bored on the road. She looked at Yang Guang and said, ¡°Hey, there¡¯s something I want to ask you!¡± ¡°What is it?¡± Yang Guang looked at her. ¡°Who did you learn your medical skills from?¡± He Yu asked. ¡°Why do you ask?¡± Yang Guang was a little puzzled and looked at her as he asked. ¡°I¡¯m just curious. Why? Can¡¯t I ask?¡± He Yu asked. Yang Guang shook his head and said, ¡°Not really. It¡¯s just that my medical skills are self-taught. I don¡¯t have a master!¡± ¡°Tsk, do you think I believe it?¡± He Yu curled her lips and looked disdainful. She continued, ¡°It¡¯s fine if you don¡¯t want to talk about it. I¡¯m just curious. Your medical skills are indeed a little too magical!¡± ¡°It¡¯s enough that you know how magical it is.¡± Yang Guang chuckled and continued, ¡°Oh right, if anyone around you gets sick, remember to recommend me to them. I¡¯m short of money recently.¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± He Yu was stunned. Then, she looked at him. ¡°You¡¯re not planning to earn 200 million through treatment, are you?¡± Yang Guang nodded. ¡°I have this idea.¡± Turning to look at Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling, He Yu asked somewhat speechlessly, ¡°Do you think his idea is reliable?¡± ¡°It¡¯s not reliable, but Yang Guang is too stubborn. We can¡¯t persuade him!¡± Qi Yingxue said with a bitter smile. ¡°Then let him wait and call me great-aunt. To earn 200 million by treating patients in four months is simply a fool¡¯s dream!¡± He Yu said. Yang Guang quickly clarified, ¡°Don¡¯t distort the concept. I didn¡¯t say that I only rely on treating patients to earn money!¡± ¡°Then what other abilities do you have?¡± He Yu asked.. Chapter 141 - Convinced Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang chuckled, ¡°I have many skills, why would I tell you everything?¡± ¡°Forget it!¡± He Yu rolled her eyes, then sneered, ¡°Even if you can fly to the sky, I don¡¯t believe you can earn so much money in four months!¡± ¡°That means you are ignorant. Later, I have to buy a video recorder. When you run naked, I will definitely film it!¡± Yang Guang laughed evilly. Hearing this, He Yu did not blush. She just rolled her eyes at him. ¡°Don¡¯t even think about it in your life!¡± The car sped all the way and soon arrived at Hongqi Town. It was already noon. After Yang Guang and the others arrived at the town hospital, they immediately went upstairs to look for Dr. Hu. After asking, they found out that he had gone to eat. ¡°This guy is really enthusiastic about eating!¡± Yang Guang said this and took out his phone to call Dr. Hu. After the call was connected, he immediately asked, ¡°Aren¡¯t you in a hurry? I¡¯m here at the hospital now. Come and see how I remove scars!¡± ¡°You really dare to come?¡± When Dr. Hu heard this, he spat out the noodles in his mouth. Then, he nodded and said, ¡°Okay, just you wait!¡± A few minutes later, he rushed to the second floor. When he saw that Qi Yingxue had also come, Dr. Hu was stunned for a moment. Then, he went forward and asked, ¡°Miss Qi, you were deceived by this kid, right? It¡¯s okay, I¡¯ll help you take revenge!¡± ¡°No, Dr. Hu, you misunderstood. I came here today to tell you that Yang Guang has indeed healed my wound, and there are no scars left!¡± Qi Yingxue said this and turned around to show her arm to him. ¡°This¡­¡± Dr. Hu was dumbfounded. Her injury had completely recovered, and there were indeed no scars! Of course, he did not want to admit that he had lost. As his thoughts raced, Dr. Hu raised his head and said, ¡°No, you¡¯re definitely not Miss Qi. You¡¯re her twin sister, right?¡± ¡°To think that you can think of such a thing!¡± Yang Guang sneered, ¡°You don¡¯t have to be so shameless. My Sister Xue only has one. There are no twin sisters!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Dr. Hu, what are you thinking? It¡¯s okay if you lose. There¡¯s no need to say that!¡± Xu Ling added. ¡°How is this possible!¡± Dr. Hu knew that his guess was wrong. He was stunned, but at the same time, he was in disbelief. ¡°It¡¯s impossible for you, but for me, it¡¯s a piece of cake. How about it? Are you convinced now? Call me teacher!¡± Yang Guang sneered. ¡°Impossible!¡± Dr. Hu¡¯s face turned red, and he said, ¡°You must have used some special method. I had already expected it. Miss Qi¡¯s injury is not serious at all, that¡¯s why she recovered so well!¡± Yang Guang was speechless. He looked at him and asked, ¡°Then what do you want?¡± ¡°I found someone here. I will only believe it when I see you heal his scar in person!¡± Dr. Hu said. ¡°Okay, where is he?¡± Yang Guang knew that it would not be so easy to make this person submit, so he nodded and thought to himself that he would make Dr. Hu completely submit to him that day! ¡°Follow me!¡± Dr. Hu said and walked over to the ward. Yang Guang and the others followed him. When they arrived at a ward, they saw a middle-aged man lying on the bed. The man¡¯s face was sallow and he looked dispirited. They did not know what disease he had, but he was as skinny as a stick. One look and they could tell that he was sick. Dr. Hu went forward and pulled the man¡¯s arm. ¡°See? If you can remove the scar on his arm, then you win!¡± There was a dark red slightly bulging scar on the man¡¯s arm. It was more than twenty centimeters, and it was shiny. It looked a little creepy. Yang Guang knew with one look that this man must have been seriously injured. The wound should have exposed his bones. With such a big scar, his arm would be very uncomfortable during cold and wet weather. When Xu Ling saw this scar, she could not help but frown. ¡°Dr. Hu, you¡¯re going too far. You actually let Yang Guang treat such a serious scar!¡± ¡°This just proves that Yang Guang is amazing. Isn¡¯t he very confident?¡± Dr. Hu sneered. Yang Guang smiled. ¡°If you lose, I¡¯ll make you admit defeat!¡± After saying that, he went to the man¡¯s side and pushed Dr. Hu away. ¡°Go to the side!¡± After making room, Yang Guang took the ointment that he had made for Qi Yingxue and carefully applied it. At the same time, the energy in his body seeped into the man¡¯s skin. Out of curiosity, Yang Guang checked the man¡¯s body and found out that his illness came from his lungs. The man¡¯s lungs were full of holes and the alveoli were black. However, it was not caused by smoking, but by dust. As he applied the medicine, Yang Guang looked up at him. ¡°You have silicosis, right?¡± The man nodded, his eyes were weak. His breathing was a little difficult, and he did not have the strength to speak. Clearly, his condition was very serious. Yang Guang knew very well that this kind of silicosis was caused by rock drilling in the mine. If he inhaled too much dust, the function of his lungs would be severely damaged. Thinking about how his brother also worked in the mine, Yang Guang felt a sense of sympathy for this man for no reason. So, he raised his head and said to Xu Ling, ¡°Sister, you are more familiar with the town. Can you help me buy a few medicines?¡± ¡°Okay, you tell me. I¡¯ll go buy them!¡± Xu Ling immediately nodded. Yang Guang reported the names of a few herbs. At this time, Dr. Hu was not satisfied. He widened his eyes and asked, ¡°What do you want to do?¡± ¡°Of course, it is to treat patients and save people, what else can I do?¡± Yang Guang glared at him. ¡°I¡¯m warning you, this is a town hospital, not your small clinic. You don¡¯t have the right to save people here!¡± Dr. Hu said. Yang Guang looked at him. ¡°Then do you want the patients to recover?¡± ¡°Nonsense, of course I want to!¡± Dr. Hu said. ¡°Then don¡¯t stop me!¡± Yang Guang widened his eyes. He had the attitude that if he dare to speak again, he would beat him up! Dr. Hu¡¯s lips moved, but he really did not dare to say anything else. Xu Ling went out to buy medicine. Yang Guang had also applied the ointment. Then, he stood up and said, ¡°Let¡¯s wait for more than half an hour. Later, we¡¯ll know who wins and who loses!¡± Dr. Hu was stubborn and said, ¡°Let¡¯s wait, am I afraid of you?¡± Yang Guang ignored him and turned to look at He Yu. ¡°I¡¯ll need to use your car later.¡± ¡°Sure, I¡¯d like to see if you can cure this person!¡± He Yu nodded. Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I can definitely heal him!¡± After saying that, he left the ward and went downstairs to wait for Xu Ling. When Xu Ling returned with a few medicinal herbs, he refined them in the car and then made a dozen pills. At this time, almost an hour had passed. He returned upstairs and went to the ward again. ¡°Now is the time to witness a miracle.¡± Yang Guang smiled. He picked up a roll of paper from the bedside table, tore off a few pieces, and wiped the man¡¯s arm. After the ointment was wiped off, a patch of fair and tender skin was revealed on the man¡¯s arm, which was very distinct from the dark skin around him! Chapter 142 - Went Home Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang raised his head and looked at the dumbfounded Dr. Hu. ¡°How is it? Are you convinced?¡± ¡°This¡­ This is impossible!¡± Dr. Hu muttered to himself with a face full of disbelief. ¡°You¡¯ve seen it and you still say it¡¯s impossible. Is it so difficult for you to admit defeat? Or are you a man?¡± He Yu asked snappily from the side. Raising his head, he saw that the three girls were all looking at him angrily. Although Dr. Hu was unwilling, he still looked at Yang Guang and said, ¡°Alright, you win!¡± ¡°Oh, and then?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Tea¡­ Teacher!¡± Dr. Hu looked at him and bowed slightly. Yang Guang was immediately amused. Then, he said, ¡°You should be content. This is a ward. Not many people are here. If this was done in public, you will lose all your face!¡± ¡°Yes, yes, I understand!¡± Dr. Hu wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and then remembered the important matter. ¡°Oh right, what is this ointment of yours? It¡¯s so magical!¡± ¡°It¡¯s none of your business. This is a secret recipe!¡± Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°Alright, go to the side first. I¡¯ll take a look at this big brother¡¯s silicosis.¡± ¡°Uh, this¡­¡± Dr. Hu wanted to stop him, but Yang Guang glared at him. ¡°Why? Are you still doubting your teacher¡¯s medical skills?¡± ¡°¡­¡± Dr. Hu was speechless and could only shut his mouth. Yang Guang went forward and handed two pills to him. ¡°Big Brother, your condition is quite serious. Take this medicine first. Take two pills a day for the rest of the day. You¡¯ll slowly get better.¡± The man¡¯s eyes were filled with disbelief. He had long known that his illness was incurable. Now that he was breathing on oxygen, he did not have much time left. But from what Yang Guang said, he actually had a chance of survival? He could not help but believe it. The scar on his arm already proved Yang Guang¡¯s medical skills, right? So he was stunned for a moment. He quickly opened his mouth and swallowed the two pills. ¡°Yang Guang, how long will it take for the medicine to take effect?¡± He Yu asked. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, it¡¯ll be quick.¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°It¡¯s impossible to recover in a short time, but as long as you continue to take the medicine, you¡¯ll definitely recover very quickly!¡± Time passed by. After about ten minutes, the man suddenly started coughing. There was a gurgling sound in his throat as if there was a lot of phlegm. As the coughing became more and more intense, the man bent down and began to cough up phlegm in large mouthfuls. The phlegm was black and there was a foul smell. The ladies immediately covered their noses. Although it was a little impolite to do so, the smell was too bad. In the end, He Yu had no choice but to drag Qi Yingxue and the others out of the door and into the corridor to get some air. After coughing for a while, the man straightened his back and took a deep breath. ¡°It¡¯s comfortable, really comfortable.¡± ¡°How do you feel now?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°It¡¯s been a long time since I breathed so happily. Doctor, you¡¯re really a miracle doctor!¡± The man said. Yang Guang smiled. ¡°It¡¯s good that you feel much better. Remember what I said. Don¡¯t forget to take this medicine. You¡¯ll be fine after you finish taking it.¡± After saying that, he turned to look at Dr. Hu beside him. ¡°Alright, I don¡¯t have anything else to do. I¡¯ll go back first!¡± Dr. Hu was still in a daze. When he heard this, he hurriedly grabbed Yang Guang¡¯s arm. ¡°Don¡¯t go!¡± ¡°What?¡± Yang Guang stopped and turned around to ask. ¡°Teacher, you¡¯re really my teacher. Can you tell me how you cured silicosis?¡± Dr. Hu¡¯s face was full of excitement, and his voice was trembling as he spoke. ¡°It was cured with medicine. Didn¡¯t you see it?¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°I know, but this medicine, what is this medicine?¡± Dr. Hu asked carefully. ¡°Can I tell you the secret formula?¡± Yang Guang smiled, shook off his hand, and was about to leave. At this time, the man on the bed hurriedly said, ¡°Benefactor, please wait. What is your name? When I recover, I will definitely thank you!¡± ¡°My name is Yang Guang, the village doctor of Qingshan Village!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°There¡¯s no need to thank me. My brother used to work in the mine.¡± After saying that, he left the ward, leaving the man to think for a moment and mutter to himself, ¡°Qingshan Village, Yang Guang. Could he be Yang Liang¡¯s younger brother?¡± After learning that the man had recovered a lot, Qi Yingxue and the others looked at Yang Guang with admiration. He Yu said seriously, ¡°Yang Guang, so you are really a good person.¡± Yang Guang was speechless. He looked at her and said, ¡°You say that like I wasn¡¯t a good person in the past!¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t know much about you in the past, but now I finally understand!¡± He Yu smiled and said seriously, ¡°Although it¡¯s a bit like digging a hole for myself, I still can¡¯t help but remind you that if you really want to make money quickly, the prescription in your hands might be a good idea!¡± ¡°I understand what you mean, but my medicine can¡¯t be mass-produced, so it can¡¯t be exchanged for big money!¡± Yang Guang said with a bitter smile. Hearing this, He Yu was suddenly at a loss. ¡°Well, if it can¡¯t be mass-produced, then no one will buy your prescription. This is also good, lest I lose the bet.¡± As they spoke, the group returned to the car, and then the driver drove on the road to Qingshan Village. Construction was already underway on this section of the road. Some construction vehicles were parked by the side of the road. The workers were also preparing for the construction. ¡°Oh right, I just remembered the scenic area you mentioned. When we reach the village, can you bring me to see that palace?¡± He Yu asked. Yang Guang looked at the time. ¡°I don¡¯t think so. It¡¯s already two o¡¯clock. It¡¯s already dark when you come out after you¡¯ve visited that place!¡± ¡°So what if it¡¯s dark? Do you think my car doesn¡¯t have lights?¡± He Yu asked. ¡°That¡¯s not what I meant. Sister Yingxue still has to return to the county town. You¡¯d better send her back as soon as possible!¡± Yang Guang said. However, when Qi Yingxue heard that, she hurriedly shook her head. ¡°No need. It doesn¡¯t matter if I go back a little later!¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± This time, Yang Guang was helpless. Seeing He Yu looking at him proudly, he could only nod his head. ¡°Alright then. A guest from afar is a guest. I can¡¯t chase you away, can I?¡± ¡°That¡¯s more like it!¡± The car slowly drove into Qingshan Village, and then stopped at the door of Yang Guang¡¯s house. After not seeing each other for more than a day, Little Guang was the first to rush out of his nest, jumping in front of everyone. However, facing Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling, it didn¡¯t know whose arms should it jump into. In the end, He Yu took advantage of it. She reached out and held it in her arms, and then she rubbed it! ¡°This little guy is too cute. What kind of breed is this?¡± He Yu asked. ¡°Uh, if we¡¯re talking about the breed, it should belong to the forest wolf, right?¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Ah? This is a wolf?¡± He Yu was shocked and suddenly didn¡¯t dare to stroke it. ¡°Don¡¯t be afraid. Little Guang doesn¡¯t bite people. It understands human nature very well. It can even understand human speech!¡± Xu Ling said with a smile. At this moment, Wu Xiaolian came out of the room with Yaya in her arms. She said with a smile, ¡°You guys are finally back!¡± Yang Guang was stunned.. ¡°What¡¯s wrong, Sister-in-law? Is something going on at home?¡± Chapter 143 - Justified Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Seeing that Yang Guang was getting anxious, Wu Xiaolian quickly said, ¡°It¡¯s fine, it¡¯s fine. It¡¯s just that Yaya cried a few times when she saw that both of you weren¡¯t home!¡± ¡°Is that so?¡± Yang Guang heaved a sigh of relief and quickly took the child from her arms. Then, he gently pinched her little nose. ¡°You Little Girl, did you think that uncle wouldn¡¯t come back?¡± Yaya grinned, revealing a few little white teeth. ¡°This child is really cute!¡± He Yu¡¯s eyes lit up. She put down Little Guang and wanted to come over to hug Yaya. However, the little girl was not unfamiliar with her. When she saw her open her hand, she pounced over. ¡°Yang Guang, who is this?¡± Wu Xiaolian quickly asked when she saw that an unfamiliar girl had come over. ¡°She is He Yu. She is Xiaowan¡¯s classmate. We met once in the county town!¡± Yang Guang introduced. ¡°Hello, Sister-in-law!¡± He Yu smiled very obediently. She had completely lost her high and mighty manner from before. ¡°Welcome to my house. Quickly go inside and have a seat!¡± Wu Xiaolian was full of enthusiasm. In the end, He Yu shook her head. ¡°I won¡¯t go in. Yang Guang promised to bring me to the mountain to see that palace. It¡¯s time to set off.¡± Yang Guang nodded as well. ¡°Yup, she insisted on going to take a look. I¡¯ll bring her into the mountain. Sister-in-law, please take care of Sister Yingxue first.¡± ¡°Alright, then pay attention to your safety.¡± Wu Xiaolian didn¡¯t say much and nodded with a smile. Yang Guang went to the courtyard to carry his basket. Then, he saw that He Yu was wearing sports shoes, so he said, ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡± The two of them left the house and headed west. Soon, they left the village and reached the mountains. Seeing the lush forest around them, He Yu opened her arms and praised, ¡°The air here is really good!¡± ¡°Really? I don¡¯t feel anything,¡± said Yang Guang. ¡°That¡¯s because you don¡¯t live in the city all the time. The air in the city is not good at all!¡± Said He Yu. The two of them walked through the forest and saw some white and gray lines. She then asked, ¡°What is this?¡± ¡°This is used to mark the route. Soon, there will be a road leading to the mountains and cars can drive in,¡± answered Yang Guang. He Yu nodded and asked as they walked, ¡°Regarding the scenic area, you haven¡¯t told me in detail. What¡¯s your plan?¡± Since they were on their way, Yang Guang explained the layout of the scenic area to her as they walked. After hearing that, He Yu rolled her eyes. ¡°You want to build a resort? Then can I stay here?¡± ¡°Of course, you can. Anyone can stay here!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Then can I buy one? I don¡¯t like to live in the same house with others!¡± He Yu said. Yang Guang was stunned and then looked at her. ¡°I didn¡¯t think about that. The resort is built to make it convenient for tourists who come from afar to stay. Who would stay here all the time!¡± ¡°Me!¡± He Yu smiled and said, ¡°Not to mention staying here for a year, even staying here for three to five months every year is very good for the body!¡± ¡°Oh, then I¡¯ll think about it,¡± said Yang Guang. ¡°What¡¯s there to think about? Let me tell you this. When people from the city come to this place, they will all like the environment here very much. If you build a resort, I reckon that there will definitely be people staying there, but there will definitely be a lot of people who want to buy a house from you and make plans to stay here for long term!¡± Said He Yu. Yang Guang smiled. ¡°That won¡¯t do. If they buy them all, where will the tourists stay?¡± ¡°You¡¯re really a stubborn one!¡± He Yu rolled her eyes at him. ¡°Why don¡¯t you just build more? There are many places by the roadside in your village, right?¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Then wouldn¡¯t I become a real estate developer?¡± ¡°So what? You don¡¯t have the qualifications and funds, right? I¡¯ll help you!¡± He Yu rubbed her hands together, looking like she was going to do something big. She then said, ¡°Let¡¯s set up a Qingshan Village Real Estate Development Company!¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Yang Guang was speechless when he heard that. He looked at her and said, ¡°Why do you sound like everything will turn into a success? Aren¡¯t you afraid of losing money?¡± ¡°With my business vision, this business only earns money, how can it lose money?¡± He Yu curled her lips. ¡°Tell me, are you interested?¡± ¡°I am, but I don¡¯t know anything about real estate. Why don¡¯t you do it yourself!¡± Yang Guang said. He Yu looked at him as if he was an alien. ¡°This is the first time I¡¯ve seen someone like you, giving away the meat at your mouth to someone else?¡± ¡°If you want to eat meat, you have to have teeth, right?¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°A scenic area is enough to give me a headache. If you want me to become a real estate developer, you¡¯d better spare me!¡± ¡°What a blockhead!¡± He Yu glared at him. Then, she couldn¡¯t be bothered with him anymore and walked forward. ¡°Hey, where are you going? Do you know where to go?¡± Yang Guang hurriedly shouted. ¡°This white and gray line is the best guide. I won¡¯t get lost!¡± He Yu said in a low voice and walked forward without looking back. ¡°Woman!¡± Yang Guang shook his head helplessly and followed after her. The two of them entered the mountain one after the other and soon arrived at the bottom of the mountain wall in the deepest part of the valley. The rope was still hanging there. Yang Guang stretched out his hand and pointed, ¡°At the moment, this is the only way to go up. Can you do it?¡± ¡°Why not? Are you looking down on me?!¡± He Yu rolled her eyes at him. She stepped forward and grabbed the rope, ready to climb. Yang Guang was not in a hurry to follow. He stayed below to take a look. When He Yu reached a height of seven to eight meters, he felt relieved. Then, he also grabbed the rope and climbed up. When they reached the platform on the mountainside, He Yu clapped her hands and turned around to take a look. ¡°D*mn, the scenery here is amazing!¡± ¡°This isn¡¯t even the highest point. The highest point can see the surrounding mountains for dozens of miles. The scenery is even better!¡± Yang Guang said. He Yu nodded. ¡°I can imagine it.¡± Then, she looked at the dark cave entrance. ¡°Is that the palace?¡± ¡°Yes, go in and take a look. You will be very surprised!¡± Yang Guang smiled. He Yu seemed to be quite bold. She was not afraid of the dark cave entrance and walked over. The two of them entered the cave one after the other. When they got used to the dark environment inside and saw the buildings, He Yu¡¯s mouth immediately turned into an ¡°O¡± shape! After a long silence, she suddenly turned to look at Yang Guang. ¡°Such a good place, yet you still don¡¯t hurry to develop it. Are you a fool?¡± ¡°Hey, why are you targeting me?¡± Yang Guang looked innocent and quickly said, ¡°The scenic area has just been built and the road hasn¡¯t been repaired yet. What do you want me to do now?¡± ¡°Oh, that¡¯s true!¡± He Yu nodded and continued, ¡°But you¡¯re too long-winded. Why don¡¯t you hurry up? The road is slowly being repaired. Can¡¯t you find a few more construction teams?¡± ¡°That¡¯s easy for you to say. I don¡¯t have any money!¡± Yang Guang said. He Yu was speechless. Then, she glared at him. ¡°I really have to hand it to you.. You¡¯re still so righteous even if you don¡¯t have money!¡± Chapter 144 - Xu Lings Words Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang rolled his eyes. ¡°This is called facing reality!¡± Then, seeing He Yu rolling her eyes, he continued, ¡°You don¡¯t have to rush. Everything is difficult at the beginning. If you eat everything in one bite, you would become a fatty. Everything has to be done step by step!¡± ¡°Done my a*s!¡± He Yu glared at him. ¡°If I let you do this business, you¡¯ll definitely collapse. Let me put it this way, aren¡¯t you short of 200 million in funds? I will give you 50 million right now to get everything running quickly. Four months? No, you have to finish it within one and a half months!¡± ¡°Are you serious?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s eyes were wide open and he looked surprised. ¡°Of course I¡¯m serious. Do you think I¡¯m joking?¡± He Yu asked. Yang Guang looked at her. ¡°Then aren¡¯t you going to run around naked?¡± ¡°¡­¡± He Yu was speechless. Yang Guang had stopped her from talking to him that day. Yang Guang also realized that he had said something wrong and quickly chuckled. ¡°Thank you for your kindness, but I¡¯ve already said that I want to raise the money myself. I don¡¯t need anyone¡¯s support!¡± ¡°Are you afraid of being fooled?¡± He Yu asked. ¡°No, I¡¯m afraid of being controlled by others!¡± Yang Guang said. He Yu looked at him seriously for a few moments, then clicked her tongue and said, ¡°I can¡¯t tell. You¡¯re not old, but your thoughts are very deep!¡± ¡°Am I wrong? Isn¡¯t the most terrifying thing in this world the human heart?¡± Yang Guang asked. He Yu nodded and continued, ¡°You¡¯re right, but the most precious thing is also the human heart. I see that Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling treat you so well. Don¡¯t tell me you have to be wary of them too?¡± ¡°Of course not!¡± Yang Guang¡¯s neck stiffened. ¡°They are the same as my family. How can I not trust my own family!¡± ¡°Is that so?¡± He Yu suddenly sneered and looked at him. ¡°Kid, you are quite ambitious!¡± ¡°What did you say?¡± Yang Guang was stunned and his heart trembled. ¡°Hmph, man!¡± He Yu did not answer him and turned around to walk out of the cave. When they were outside, she said in an unquestionable tone, ¡°This is a large mountain forest with such beautiful scenery. It¡¯s such a pity to just set up a scenic area in this valley. From now on, leave this place to me!¡± ¡°Hey, you can¡¯t be like this. Did I agree to it?¡± Yang Guang was very unhappy when he heard that. His eyes immediately widened. He Yu turned to look at him. ¡°You don¡¯t want to see me run around naked?¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Yang Guang thought to himself, ¡°It¡¯s a good thing that I didn¡¯t drink any water. Otherwise, I would have choked to death in one gulp. How did this woman¡¯s brain work?¡± Seeing that he was in a daze, He Yu chuckled. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, the bet won¡¯t change. The money will be separated. As long as you earn 200 million within four months, I¡¯ll also keep my promise!¡± Yang Guang was speechless. ¡°What are you trying to achieve?¡± ¡°I like this place!¡± After He Yu said that, she took out her phone and took a bunch of photos. Then, she looked at the sky and said to Yang Guang, ¡°Let¡¯s go. We¡¯re in a hurry to go back!¡± The two of them went down to the valley through the rope and then returned to Qingshan Village together. When they reached home, the sun had set. At this time, a table of dishes had been prepared at home. Seeing that the situation was like this, He Yu did not stand on ceremony. She only smiled at Wu Xiaolian and said, ¡°Thank you for your hard work, Sister-in-law.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t say that. You are a guest from afar. We must keep the guests at home for dinner!¡± Wu Xiaolian said with a smile. He Yu nodded and turned to look at Qi Yingxue. ¡°Sister Yingxue, are you still in a hurry to go back? If you are not in a hurry, how about staying here tonight?¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Qi Yingxue was stunned, then she smiled bitterly. ¡°There are important guests in the restaurant tonight, so I really can¡¯t stay.¡± ¡°Alright then, I¡¯m just asking. It just so happens that I can make use of the time to return to the provincial capital,¡± said He Yu. ¡°Oh?¡± Qi Yingxue didn¡¯t understand and looked at her with some confusion. ¡°I¡¯ve decided to set up a new company to develop the real estate market here!¡± Said He Yu. ¡°¡­¡± When they heard this, Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling were stunned! Then, the two of them looked at each other with a face full of surprise! Then, Xu Ling immediately said, ¡°That¡¯s great. Actually, I¡¯ve been thinking about this before, but because the construction of the scenic area is already very expensive, I plan to talk about it slowly in the future. Now, if Miss He joins in, we will definitely make money!¡± ¡°Making money is secondary. The main thing is that I like the environment here!¡± He Yu said with a smile. Speaking of the real estate business, Xu Ling and Qi Yingxue were very interested. However, it was not early, so after dinner, He Yu and Qi Yingxue got into the car. Taking advantage of the fact that the sky was still not dark totally, they left Qingshan Village. After watching the car go far away, they returned to the courtyard. Xu Ling tidied up the bowls and chopsticks while looking at Yang Guang. ¡°Do you have any ideas why Miss He is joining us?¡± ¡°No. If she¡¯s willing to invest, then let her. She doesn¡¯t lack money anyway,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Do you really think that He Yu likes the environment here?¡± Xu Ling stopped and looked at him as she asked. Yang Guang was stunned and asked doubtfully, ¡°What else could it be?¡± ¡°Think about it yourself!¡± Xu Ling said and carried the dishes into the kitchen. Yang Guang was a little puzzled. He scratched his head and muttered to himself, ¡°Then what else could it be?¡± After packing up the things, Xu Ling saw that he still did not understand, so she sat down and said, ¡°Idiot, think about it. Although Qingshan Village is densely packed with mountains and forests, when it comes to the landscape, it is actually not considered extraordinary. Compared to Mount Tai on Mount Huang, isn¡¯t it far behind?¡± ¡°That¡¯s true. How can we compare to those magnificent mountains?¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°That¡¯s why He Yu wants to invest, not because of the scenery, but because of you!¡± Xu Ling rolled her eyes at him, got up, and went to the well platform. Hearing this, Yang Guang¡¯s heart was brightened, and he immediately understood. He only helped her to treat an illness, and it was not enough to make this young lady fall in love with him. Xu Ling did not mean that either. What she meant was that He Yu was interested in his medical skills! This was the reason why she decided to invest a large sum of money. After understanding this, Yang Guang walked to the well and looked at Xu Ling, who was squatting on the ground and washing her hands. ¡°Sister, you see things much more clearly than I do!¡± ¡°I¡¯ve thought about it long ago. Actually, there¡¯s a reason why Xiaowan and Sister Yingxue are getting closer to you.¡± Xu Ling stood up and shook off the water in her hand. ¡°If you were just an ordinary person, with your glib tongue and lecherous eyes all day long, who would bother you?!¡± Yang Guang had an awkward expression when he heard that. ¡°We¡¯re just talking. Can you not attack me personally?¡± ¡°Aren¡¯t you very thick-skinned?¡± Xu Ling looked at him, then, she burst into laughter. ¡°I¡¯m just telling the truth. You don¡¯t have to think too much about it. They don¡¯t have any bad intentions, and it¡¯s not that they want to obtain any benefits from you. It¡¯s just that you¡¯re not an ordinary person, so¡­¡± She suddenly paused and turned to leave. Yang Guang couldn¡¯t take it anymore. He grabbed Xu Ling¡¯s wrist.. ¡°Why aren¡¯t you saying anything? So what?¡± Chapter 145 - Heavy Rain Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xu Ling blushed and glared at him. ¡°Sister-in-law is here!¡± Then, she pulled her hand out forcefully, turned around, and said hurriedly as she walked, ¡°So maybe you have some special attraction on you!¡± Seeing her back rushing into the house, Yang Guang was a little stunned. Then, he lowered his head to look at himself and muttered, ¡°Do I have that much attraction? Could it be that after I obtained the inheritance, I¡¯ve become a lot more handsome?¡± While he was being smug, Wu Xiaolian¡¯s face was filled with smiles in the kitchen. She happened to see the scene of the two young men holding hands just now, and her heart was instantly comforted. However, when she thought of Qi Yingxue and Mu Xiaowan, Wu Xiaolian could not help but sigh! She liked all three of these young ladies and wanted to take them as her younger sister-in-law. She was as greedy as Yang Guang! After washing up, Yang Guang felt that the sky had darkened a little too quickly. It was only seven o¡¯clock and it was already dark. Hence, Yang Guang raised his head and looked at the sky. When he looked, he realized that the sky had already been filled with dark clouds! The clouds were very thick. It looked like there was going to be a heavy rain that night. Yang Guang quickly turned on the lights in the courtyard, then he checked the firewood in the house and other things that were afraid of the rain. Finally, he looked at Little Guang¡¯s nest. He felt that it might not be waterproof, so he found a piece of plastic and covered it with the plastic. When he was done, there was a faint rumbling sound in the sky. ¡°No, I still have to go to the greenhouse to take a look!¡± Feeling that the rain would not be light that night, Yang Guang quickly went back to his room to get his flashlight and was about to leave. Xu Ling heard the thunder and came out of her room. Seeing the situation, she immediately said, ¡°I¡¯ll go with you!¡± Seeing that she had changed into a tank top and shorts and that she was wearing slippers, Yang Guang shook his head. ¡°No need, I¡¯ll go alone.¡± ¡°No, if you need to pack, you can¡¯t do it alone!¡± Xu Ling said and quickly went back to her room. Soon, she changed her shoes and came out. Seeing that she was so insistent, Yang Guang could only nod and did not say anything else. The two of them greeted Wu Xiaolian, then took the umbrella and rushed out of the door. At this time, the sky in the west was already filled with lightning and thunder. It was estimated that the heavy rain would fall soon, so the two of them walked quickly to the greenhouse. It was summer now, so the curtain rollers were not useful, so they were all on the greenhouse. Yang Guang jumped onto one of the buildings and checked the sturdiness. He felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he jumped down and looked at the drainage channel. It would have been better if he didn¡¯t look, but he was a little confused when he saw it. Why was the drainage channel blocked? ¡°Sister, help me light it up. I¡¯ll clear up the drainage channel!¡± Yang Guang said and ran to the small house to find a shovel. He then quickly started digging. The canal was originally very wide, but it was blocked by mud for a few meters. If he didn¡¯t clear up quickly, a large amount of rain would fall and not be able to drain away. In the end, the vegetables in the greenhouse would be flooded. He had just dug two times and the bean-sized raindrops fell. Yang Guang had just entered the drainage channel. He stopped, turned to Xu Ling and said, ¡°Sister, you go back first. I¡¯ll leave after I finish digging!¡± ¡°No, I¡¯ll wait for you!¡± Xu Ling was worried that it was too dark that he could not see. She used her flashlight to illuminate the canal and continued, ¡°Don¡¯t be anxious. It¡¯s okay to get wet. It¡¯s not far from home anyway.¡± ¡°Alright.¡± Amidst the lightning and thunder, Yang Guang used all his strength to clean up the mud. It only took half a minute for the rain to fall heavily. In an instant, the world was filled with the sound of rain. Even though Xu Ling was holding an umbrella, the drops of water still splashed onto her legs. As for Yang Guang, he was even worse off. His entire body was drenched by the rain, and he could barely open his eyes. Fortunately, the canal was finally cleaned up. The rain that fell quickly flowed past, and then flowed along the slope into the river in the distance. He reached out to wipe the rainwater off his face. Yang Guang turned around to look at Xu Ling, but there was a flashlight, so he couldn¡¯t see her clearly. He went up to her and said loudly, ¡°Sister, let¡¯s go back!¡± ¡°Okay, here¡¯s your umbrella!¡± Xu Ling said and handed over the other umbrella. Yang Guang smiled. He thought to himself, ¡°What¡¯s the point of holding an umbrella if it¡¯s already like this?¡± So he put the umbrella under his arm. He reached out to grab Xu Ling¡¯s hand and walked into the village. Just as they reached the river, they heard a rumbling sound and stopped at the same time. This was not the sound of thunder! Feeling that the ground under his feet was trembling, Yang Guang was stunned. Then, he thought that it was not good! Just as he was stunned, the flood from the mountain rushed down with a roar! The river in the village was originally a small stream, and the river channel was very narrow. However, the rapid flow of the water caused the mountain flood to roar and the water level instantly rose by one meter! If they had not hesitated just now, the two of them would have had a chance to cross the river, but now, they could not. The mountain torrent had already spread to the bottom of their feet. The surface of the water was more than ten meters wide, and they could not cross it. ¡°How did the water come so fast?¡± Yang Guang was a little dazed. He turned to look at Xu Ling, and seeing that her body was slightly trembling, he said, ¡°Let¡¯s go back to the small house first. The flood would only stop after some time!¡± ¡°Okay, okay.¡± Xu Ling was a little nervous at the moment. One reason was that she had been afraid of thunder since she was young, and the other reason was that she had never experienced such a situation before. The torrential rain was pouring, and the mountain flood was erupting. She had no idea what to do now. Then, Yang Guang held her hand. The two of them went back to the greenhouse together and entered the small house. After entering the door, Yang Guang¡¯s first thought was not that he was drenched, but that he looked at Xu Ling. ¡°Sister, do you have your phone?¡± Xu Ling tried to search for it. The phone was in the pocket of her shorts, so she took it out and asked, ¡°Yes, why?¡± ¡°Give Sister-in-law a call. Tell her that there¡¯s a flood and we can¡¯t go back. Don¡¯t let her worry!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Okay.¡± Xu Ling nodded. She dialed Wu Xiaolian¡¯s number and explained the situation. Only then did Wu Xiaolian know why there was a loud rumble outside. She hurriedly gave a few words of advice before hanging up the phone. As it was very dark in the house, Yang Guang wanted to turn on the lights. However, when he pressed the switch, he realized that the power had been cut off because of the thunderstorm! This was a very natural situation. There were no lightning rods in the countryside, so it was easy to be struck by lightning. Therefore, it was necessary to cut off the power. If the lightning broke the line, it would be very troublesome to repair it. There was only a flashlight in the house. Yang Guang simply placed it on the table. It could barely be used as a lighting tool. Then, he turned to look at Xu Ling. ¡°Sis, are your clothes wet?¡± ¡°A little wet. I can barely endure it, but what about you?¡± Xu Ling asked. ¡°I¡­ I might as well endure it too,¡± Yang Guang said. When Xu Ling heard this, she bit her lip. ¡°You¡¯re all wet. It¡¯s better to take it off. Even if you¡¯re not sick, you¡¯re still very uncomfortable!¡± Yang Guang was stunned.. ¡°Ah? Is this appropriate?¡± Chapter 146 - Squeezed Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xu Ling¡¯s gaze was erratic and she did not dare to look at Yang Guang. She said softly, ¡°No, it¡¯s fine. It¡¯s fine as long as you¡¯re not naked!¡± ¡°Of course, I won¡¯t do that!¡± Yang Guang smiled and quickly took off his clothes. When he took off his soaked clothes, his entire body felt refreshed. Under the dim light, Xu Ling¡¯s heartbeat increased when she saw the muscles all over his body! However, she only took a glance before she quickly turned her head away. At the same time, her face turned even redder. There was no sound in the house. It was raining outside. Fortunately, it was midsummer now. Even if it rained, the house was not cold. However, after a while, Xu Ling suddenly thought of a very serious problem. If the rain did not stop and the mountain torrents did not stop, how would they sleep that night? There was only one single bed in the house! Turning to look at the bed, Xu Ling estimated that the two of them could barely lie down. However, if that was the case, the two of them would definitely be intimate! ¡°What should we do?¡± Xu Ling was in a dilemma. The feelings she had for Yang Guang in her heart were already very deep. However, she was still not mentally prepared to share a bed with Yang Guang. At that moment, the light from the flashlight flashed and went out! The house instantly turned pitch-black, and nothing could be seen. Yang Guang fumbled with the flashlight and fiddled with it, saying, ¡°It¡¯s out of battery.¡± ¡°Oh¡­¡± Xu Ling¡¯s heart was pounding, and she didn¡¯t know what to say. The rain outside the window was very heavy. Occasionally, there would be a bolt of lightning flashing through the sky. With the light, she could see Yang Guang standing there steadily, and she didn¡¯t know what he was thinking. Just as she was lost in her thoughts, Yang Guang suddenly turned around and walked over. Xu Ling¡¯s heart was immediately in her throat. ¡°Sis, you can lie on the bed. I¡¯ll be fine on the ground,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Ah?¡± Xu Ling was stunned. She never expected this kid to change! She thought that he would shamelessly insist on sharing a bed with her! So when she heard this, Xu Ling was stunned. ¡°This bed is too small. It can only accommodate one person to rest. You sleep, I¡¯ll just sit on the ground!¡± Yang Guang said another sentence and directly sat down on the red bricks. Following that, with the lightning ray, she saw him sitting cross-legged. Xu Ling could not bear it, ¡°The ground is so cold. It¡¯s not good for the body!¡± ¡°It¡¯s fine. I¡¯m young and strong!¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Err¡­¡± Xu Ling pondered for a moment and gritted her teeth. ¡°Why don¡¯t we squeeze together?¡± She was originally afraid, but now that she saw Yang Guang sitting on the ground, she took the initiative to bring this up. After hearing Xu Ling¡¯s words, Yang Guang was stunned. Then, he smiled and shook his head. ¡°It¡¯s better not. It¡¯s not suitable.¡± ¡°You just need to be more honest¡­¡± Xu Ling said softly. ¡°¡­¡± Yang Guang didn¡¯t say anything. He thought to himself, ¡°Am I honest?¡± The two of them didn¡¯t say anything. They were silent for a few minutes. In the end, Yang Guang smiled and stood up. ¡°Alright then. It¡¯s getting late. Hurry up and get some rest.¡± Xu Ling became nervous again. She let out a low grunt and took a deep breath. After all, Yang Guang was only wearing a pair of boxers. She wasn¡¯t any better either. She was wearing the pajamas she wore when she slept. She only had a tank top and shorts. For a moment, Xu Ling was so nervous that she was in a trance. She took off her shoes and slowly lay down. She tried her best to get her body close to the wall, leaving some space outside. Although she was lying down, the curve of her shoulders and waist was still very obvious. Yang Guang also felt that his blood pressure was rising a little. After lying down, half of his body was still outside the bed. He could not lie down at all. The only way was to lie on his side. Therefore, Yang Guang turned over and lay on his side on the bed. The two bodies inevitably touched each other. Xu Ling¡¯s body trembled slightly, and then she bit her lips. If it weren¡¯t for the darkness, Yang Guang could see that her ears were red. Since they were young, this kind of physical contact was enough to make their souls tremble slightly! Because of the soft touch and the faint fragrance, Yang Guang felt that his throat was dry, and his breathing became very rapid. Xu Ling could clearly feel that his breathing was very heavy, so her body began to tremble slightly. Leaning against her back, Yang Guang noticed that Xu Ling¡¯s body temperature was rising. In addition, she was still trembling slightly, so he could not help but ask, ¡°Sister, are you having a fever?¡± ¡°¡­¡± Xu Ling was originally nervous, so when she heard this, she did not know how to answer, so she simply chose to remain silent. In the end, she did not say anything. Yang Guang thought that she was asleep, so he reached out and touched her forehead! He touched it and realized that the temperature was not high. He could not help but mutter to himself, ¡°She doesn¡¯t have a fever. Why is she having a chill?¡± His chest was pressed against Xu Ling¡¯s back. This position was no different from hugging her, but he felt that she was still cold, so Yang Guang simply hugged her waist. Then, Xu Ling could not hold on any longer and said in a low voice, ¡°Didn¡¯t I say that you have to behave!¡± ¡°Sister, you didn¡¯t fall asleep?¡± Yang Guang was stunned for a moment, then asked, ¡°Then do you feel cold?¡± ¡°No, you¡¯re leaning against me like a furnace, how can it be cold!¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Oh, that¡¯s good.¡± Yang Guang heaved a sigh of relief, but his hand did not loosen. His arm was placed on Xu Ling¡¯s waist, and his hand was placed on her lower abdomen. However, he was very obedient. Xu Ling sighed in her heart. As long as he did not continue to move, then she would let him be! After a few minutes, Yang Guang asked, ¡°Sister, why don¡¯t you turn around? Will it be cold if you face the wall?¡± ¡°¡­¡± If she turned around and the two of them lay face to face, wouldn¡¯t it be extremely embarrassing? She wouldn¡¯t do it! Hence, Xu Ling didn¡¯t make a sound. Yang Guang swallowed his saliva and made a gurgling sound. Then, he stretched out his hand and pulled. Xu Ling reacted very naturally. She resisted his hand with all her strength and refused to turn around. Yang Guang chuckled and thought to himself, ¡°Little Fellow, are you as strong as me when it comes to strength?¡± With just a little strength, Xu Ling was pulled over by him. ¡°You¡­¡± Xu Ling was furious and could not help but give him a slap! Yang Guang, on the other hand, laughed mischievously and took the opportunity to hug her shoulder. Xu Ling did not dare to look him in the eye. She could only bury her head into Yang Guang¡¯s chest and curled up into a ball. The feeling of hugging face to face was simply indescribable! Xu Ling also compromised. She thought to herself that since it was already like this, she would just let him be. However, she did not expect that Yang Guang would only hug her shoulders. After hugging her in his arms, he became obedient and did not do anything else. After an unknown amount of time, the nervous mood dissipated. A wave of tiredness assaulted her and Xu Ling fell asleep in a daze. After some time, the single bed made a creaking sound. Then, with a bang, it collapsed! Yang Guang, who was sleeping soundly, did not forget to hug Xu Ling tightly. The two of them rolled to the ground.. Chapter 147 - Wild Boar Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was lying on the ground while Xu Ling was lying on top of him. This position was extremely ambiguous. In her panic, Xu Ling hurriedly got up. She turned her head and realized that the single bed could not bear the weight of two people and collapsed directly! Now, one of the bed legs had been broken and the bed board was tilted to the ground. The two of them fell down just like that. It was already dawn. Although the sun had not yet risen, the visibility in the house was already very high. The heavy rain outside the window had stopped at some point. The sound of birds chirping could be heard from the mountain in the distance. Dawn had arrived. ¡°Fortunately, it only collapsed now. If it collapsed just after we fell asleep last night, it would be troublesome!¡± Yang Guang said. Xu Ling saw that he was still lying on the ground and asked unhappily, ¡°Is it troublesome, or is it a pity? Do you think I don¡¯t know what you¡¯re thinking?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t have any bad intentions. I just want you to sleep more comfortably!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and stood up to look at the bed. ¡°It¡¯s really not sturdy. I¡¯ll take the opportunity to change it!¡± After saying that, he looked up at Xu Ling. ¡°Next time, let¡¯s buy a double bed!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Xu Ling rolled her eyes. ¡°It¡¯s up to you. I won¡¯t squeeze with you anymore!¡± ¡°Why? Is it uncomfortable sleeping with me?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°You know the answer!¡± Xu Ling rolled her eyes at him. Seeing her shy look, Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°Sis, if this were in ancient times, we would be hugging each other to sleep like this. Wouldn¡¯t you have to marry me? You can¡¯t find any other man.¡± ¡°F*ck you, that was in ancient times!¡± Xu Ling said and looked out of the window before changing the topic. ¡°The sky is about to brighten. Let¡¯s see if the flood has subsided. Hurry up and go home!¡± ¡°After a night, it should have subsided.¡± Yang Guang picked up his clothes and realized that they were still wet. He felt that no one would go out this early in the morning, so he simply held them in his hands and did not put them on. After leaving the house and taking in the cool morning air, both of them were invigorated! Then, they left the greenhouse and walked to the riverside to take a look. The flood had indeed receded, but there was mud everywhere. There was originally a small stone bridge in the river, but now it had been washed down by the flood. Looking at the mud, Yang Guang turned to Xu Ling and said, ¡°Sister, shall I carry you?¡± Biting her lips lightly, Xu Ling still nodded. Yang Guang squatted down. She nervously looked at the surrounding and opposite villages. When she did not see anyone, she then leaned on his back. Yang Guang carried Xu Ling on his back and carefully stepped into the mud. Then, he passed through the flowing river water and quickly arrived at the opposite side of the river bank. In the end, he did not stop and carried Xu Ling straight home. When they reached the door, Xu Ling struggled for a while before he put her down. As soon as the door opened, Little Guang ran over, wagging its tail and rubbing against her leg. It was very intimate. Squatting down to pick it up, Xu Ling frowned. ¡°You, why are you so wet!¡± ¡°I guess you didn¡¯t behave last night. You ran out when it was raining!¡± Yang Guang went to look at Little Guang¡¯s nest and found that it was dry inside. There was no leak at all. At this moment, Little Guang cried out twice. Then, it broke free from Xu Ling¡¯s embrace and ran straight to the alley next to the house. Then, it bit on something from the inside and pulled it with great effort. Yang Guang went closer to take a look and suddenly, there was an ¡°OH¡± sound! Xu Ling also saw it when she came over and her eyes immediately widened. A huge black wild beast was lying in the alley. After taking a closer look, she realized that it was a wild boar! Yang Guang squatted down and touched it. He found that the wild boar¡¯s body was still warm, as if it had not died for long. He turned to look at Little Guang and asked in surprise, ¡°Did you catch this?¡± ¡°Awoo.¡± Little Guang shouted at him and continued to drag it. Unfortunately, it was too small and could not drag it at all. Yang Guang felt that this wild boar was at least 300 kilograms, so he smiled and said, ¡°Alright, don¡¯t waste your energy here. Unless you become the big guy like before, you can¡¯t drag it!¡± Hearing what he said, Little Guang could only give up. Then, he barked at Yang Guang a few times. ¡°It¡¯s asking for your help!¡± Xu Ling laughed. ¡°I¡¯m afraid I can¡¯t even move this big guy!¡± Yang Guang said. He grabbed the hind legs of the wild boar and pulled them hard. Fortunately, the ground in the house was made of cement. It was smooth. The friction was not very strong. Yang Guang easily dragged the wild boar out. However, it took some effort. When the wild boar was dragged to the middle of the courtyard, Yang Guang let go and smiled at Little Guang. ¡°You b*stard, since you caught it, why are you hiding it?¡± ¡°Maybe it¡¯s to give you a surprise?¡± Xu Ling smiled and continued, ¡°It¡¯s just strange. It rained heavily last night. Why did the wild boar come to the village?¡± She believed that Little Guang did not go into the mountains to catch it because it did not have that habit. It usually stayed at home obediently. Since it rained last night, it was even more impossible for it to run too far. The only possibility was that the wild boar entered the village by itself and Little Guang transformed into its previous gigantic form to subdue it. At this moment, Wu Xiaolian heard the commotion outside and came out of the house. When she saw Yang Guang, Xu Ling, and the wild boar on the ground, she was instantly stunned! ¡°Sister-in-law, get ready to boil water. Let¡¯s kill the pig today!¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. Wu Xiaolian only knew what was going on after asking. She was naturally very surprised to see such a large wild boar, so she quickly ran to boil water. Yaya had not woken up yet, so everyone took advantage of this time to get busy. Pig slaughtering was a technical job. Although the wild boar was already dead and did not need a few people to catch it, Yang Guang did not have much experience after all. The last time he saw a pig being slaughtered was when he was thirteen or fourteen years old. Feeling that he could not handle it well, he simply left home and ran to Sun Wannian¡¯s house. The old man had just woken up. When he saw Yang Guang, he asked, ¡°So early?¡± ¡°Uncle Sun, do me a favor. A wild boar came to our house last night!¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Wild boar?¡± When Sun Wannian heard that, his eyes widened. ¡°What favor? I¡¯m too old to fight against that thing!¡± ¡°No, the wild boar is already dead. I¡¯m asking you to help me slaughter the boar!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Oh, is that so?¡± Sun Wannian heaved a sigh of relief and then nodded. ¡°Sure, I can¡¯t tend the sheep today anyway.¡± After the heavy rain, the wild grass on the mountain was covered with dew. After eating such grass, the sheep would easily have diarrhea, so it was basically impossible to tend the sheep in the morning. He turned around and went back to his room to get the pig slaughtering knife. Sun Wannian went to his house with Yang Guang. When he saw the huge wild boar lying on the ground, Sun Wannian clicked his tongue. ¡°Good heavens, this wild boar isn¡¯t small!¡± Then, he raised his head to look at Yang Guang. ¡°This wild boar¡¯s skin is rough and thick.. I¡¯m afraid my pig slaughtering knife can¡¯t be used!¡± Chapter 148 - The Source of Mountain Torrents Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After listening to Sun Wannian¡¯s explanation, Yang Guang finally understood what he meant. This wild boar was different from a domestic pig. In the wild, it liked to soak in mud. It rubbed its skin against the tree trunk to relieve the itch. After a long time, its skin was hard and thick. No matter how sharp Sun Wannian¡¯s pig slaughtering knife was, it would not work. After listening to him, Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. Uncle Sun, your knife isn¡¯t sharp enough. Mine is definitely sharp enough!¡± After saying that, he turned around and went back to his room. He took out a shiny scimitar. This scimitar was the one he had seized in the mountains last time. At that time, his woodcutter had been directly cut off by it. It could be seen how sharp this thing was. After coming back, Yang Guang left it behind. Taking the scimitar, Sun Wannian weighed it in his hand and then nodded. ¡°This scimitar is not bad. It¡¯s much stronger than my pig slaughtering knife!¡± ¡°Uncle Sun, take a look. The water is boiling. What should we do next?¡± Yang Guang asked. Sun Wannian looked at him and smiled. ¡°You young people don¡¯t even know how to do it. I¡¯m afraid that the skills of pig slaughtering will be lost in the future!¡± After saying that, he turned to look at Wu Xiaolian. ¡°Xiaolian, get some boiling water. Let¡¯s try to see if we can shed its fur first. If it doesn¡¯t work, we¡¯ll think of another way!¡± ¡°Alright!¡± Wu Xiaolian¡¯s footsteps were cheerful as she quickly scooped a bucket of hot water over. The boiling water was poured on the wild boar¡¯s body, and a special smell immediately filled the air. Perhaps it was because of the rain last night, there was not much soil on the wild boar¡¯s body. It was very clean. After pouring the boiling water twice, Sun Wannian tried to pull its fur out. He found that the boar¡¯s fur was still very easy to shed, so he nodded in satisfaction. ¡°Okay, this is not bad!¡± The next step was to slaughter the wild boar. Yang Guang and the others were in charge of helping, so they quickly got busy. By the time the sun emerged from the mountain peak in the east, there was already a pile of things in the yard. The wild boar was cut into eight pieces and divided into two halves. Yang Guang and Sun Wannian used the platform scale to weigh it. They found that apart from the internal organs, the wild boar¡¯s head and hooves, the weight of the wild boar was about 400 kilograms! Not only was Wu Xiaolian not happy about the sudden harvest of so much wild boar meat, but she was also a little worried because there were too many of them. There was no place to put them at home! Even if there was a refrigerator, there was already a lot of stuff in it. There was simply no room for more. Hearing her worry, Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. At most, I¡¯ll give everyone a share and let the whole village have a taste of the wild boar meat!¡± ¡°Even if we share it, everyone won¡¯t be able to eat so much. If it really doesn¡¯t work out, you can call Old Zhang in town. He runs a restaurant. Perhaps he can buy the extra meat!¡± Sun Wannian suggested. ¡°No need. How much can this little bit of meat be sold for?¡± Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°How about this? I¡¯ll go to town later to take a look and buy a big refrigerator!¡± Then, he turned to look at Wu Xiaolian and said, ¡°There will be frequent visitors in the future. It¡¯s time to change our little refrigerator!¡± ¡°That¡¯s good too!¡± Wu Xiaolian felt the same way, so she nodded and said, ¡°I¡¯ll go get the money for you!¡± ¡°No need. Sister Ling still has some.¡± Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°Let¡¯s not rush the refrigerator now. Uncle Sun, let¡¯s clean up the internal organs first and then stew a big pot!¡± ¡°Alright.¡± Sun Wannian nodded, and then everyone got busy again. Not long after, the news of Yang Guang¡¯s family killing a wild boar spread, and many people came to watch the show. Then, when they heard that each family could get a few kilogram of wild boar meat, people were immediately pleasantly surprised. So everyone immediately began to help, and Yang Guang¡¯s courtyard immediately became lively. After working for the whole morning, more than half of the wild boar meat was distributed. The remaining head and trotters were all taken home by Sun Wannian. Seeing that the remaining meat had been cut into strips, waiting to be frozen and stored, Yang Guang and Xu Ling left the house together. The road leading to the town was built along the river. Because of the rain, the road construction team did not work that day, so they had a day off. Yang Guang rode the electric bicycle and led Xu Ling through the mountains. He felt her small hands gently wrapped around his waist, and his mood couldn¡¯t be any happier. As they moved, Xu Ling saw that the river was in a mess due to the flood and there was mud everywhere. She suddenly thought of a question. ¡°Yang Guang, have you guys had flash floods in the past?¡± ¡°Not really. It was very rare in the past. Why?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°I just feel that it¡¯s strange. The mountains are lush with trees. Logically speaking, when the rain falls, it should have seeped into the ground. With the roots of the trees blocking it, there shouldn¡¯t have been a flood so quickly!¡± Xu Ling said. Yang Guang thought about it and felt that it was really the case. The flood last night had come too suddenly. It had only rained for about ten minutes. It shouldn¡¯t have caused such a huge flood! Therefore, he said to Xu Ling, ¡°When I come back from town, I¡¯ll go to the mountains to take a look. This matter is indeed a little strange!¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Xu Ling nodded and didn¡¯t say anything else. At this time, the electric bicycle suddenly came to a sudden stop. Caught off guard, she pounced forward and then stuck close to Yang Guang¡¯s back. ¡°¡­¡± Xu Ling was speechless. She patted him and said, ¡°Annoying!¡± ¡°Hehe.¡± Yang Guang laughed evilly and continued to move forward. They arrived at Hongqi Town and arrived at a store that sold household appliances. The two of them went in to choose. Yang Guang was not short of money at the moment, so he chose the best, most expensive, and the one with the largest capacity to buy it. This store had promised to deliver the goods when they bought the appliances, so after paying the money, Yang Guang and Xu Ling left. When the two of them returned home, it was noon. The fragrant wild boar meat had already been cooked. They had originally thought that the pork would be very hard, but they did not expect that after it was cooked, it would taste very good. After eating it, fragrance remained in their lips and teeth. It was extremely delicious! Yang Guang did not know if it was because of his own well water, but as long as it was delicious, it was fine. While eating, Wu Xiaolian said, ¡°Leave the rest of the meat for now. Wait for Yingxue and Xiaowan to come before eating!¡± ¡°Okay, I don¡¯t have any objections.¡± Yang Guang nodded and continued, ¡°I¡¯ll go into the mountain to take a look after we finish eating. If the refrigerator is delivered, Sister-in-law, you and Sister Ling can arrange a place for it.¡± ¡°There¡¯s a place in the kitchen and there¡¯s a power source too. Just leave it there!¡± Wu Xiaolian said this and then looked at Xu Ling. ¡°Lingling, if you¡¯re fine, you can go into the mountain with Yang Guang!¡± ¡°Sure!¡± Xu Ling wanted to go, so she immediately nodded. She didn¡¯t think too much, but Wu Xiaolian secretly smiled in her heart! After observing for the whole morning, she didn¡¯t see any changes in Yang Guang and Xu Ling. She had been puzzled. These two young people stayed in the small room at the greenhouse last night. Did nothing happen? It couldn¡¯t be! On a rainy night, a man and a woman were alone in a room. How could nothing have happened? However, seeing that the two of them were as calm as usual and did not make any intimate moves, Wu Xiaolian felt that she had to create more opportunities for them to be alone together! Chapter 149 - Cave Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After lunch, Yang Guang took the scimitar and left home with Xu Ling. After a morning of direct sunlight, the water vapor in the mountain had dissipated and returned to its original appearance before the heavy rain. Only the mud left behind by the mountain flood showed how fierce the mountain flood was last night. The two entered the mountain and then walked along the direction of the river. Along the way, they followed the dried mud, and it was easy to find the source of the mountain flood. After walking for two kilometers and passing through the canyon where the scenic area was, the traces of the mud turned and led to the valley next to it. At this moment, the traces of the mud had already separated from the river water. The river water flowing out of the mountain came from the northwest, and the traces left by the flash flood last night came from the valley in the southwest! Seeing this scene, Yang Guang and Xu Ling looked at each other and realized that something was wrong! ¡°There is no stream in this valley. The weeds and trees inside are very lush. It is impossible to form a flood!¡± Yang Guang said. Xu Ling nodded and asked, ¡°Is there a small reservoir or something in the mountain?¡± Yang Guang shook his head. ¡°No, I have been here to pick mountain goods. There is a forest inside the valley. There is no water at all!¡± ¡°That¡¯s really weird!¡± Xu Ling said and walked towards the valley. ¡°You¡¯ll know once you go in and take a look!¡± Yang Guang quickly walked in front of her. As he walked, he said, ¡°Don¡¯t be anxious. Follow me!¡± Xu Ling smiled. She thought to herself that he was quite self-aware and knew how to protect her. Thus, the two of them slowly walked into the depths of the valley, one in front and one behind. The traces left by the flood were still there. The weeds were all washed down to the ground and were covered with dried mud, forming a long open space that was more than ten meters wide. Because it had been dried by the sun, it was very convenient to walk on it. After walking along with the dried mud for a few hundred meters, the two of them reached the end of the valley. Then, Yang Guang and Xu Ling saw a huge cave in the mountain wall! Judging from the traces, the flood came from here. The cave was more than three meters wide and two meters high. The bottom of the cave was only two meters from the ground. It was not very high. Yang Guang and Xu Ling were dumbfounded. Obviously, the flood that was so big last night actually came from here! It flowed so fast and for such a long time, how much water was in the cave? Turning to look at Xu Ling, Yang Guang said with his eyes wide open, ¡°It looks like there really is a reservoir in the belly of the mountain!¡± ¡°The water is all gone. Do you want to go in and take a look?¡± Xu Ling¡¯s eyes lit up. She did not look at him as she looked straight into the cave and asked. ¡°Let¡¯s go, of course, we have to look! But wait for me to get a torch first, or else we won¡¯t see anything when we go in!¡± When they entered the mountain, they did not expect to find such a place, so they did not bring a torch. Yang Guang turned around and entered the forest. First, he got a long pine stick, took off his socks, and tied it. Then, he got some pine oil on it, and a simple torch was made. Carrying the torch out, Yang Guang said to Xu Ling, ¡°Sister, help me hold it, I¡¯ll go up first!¡± After saying that, he immediately ran over and jumped into the cave. Then, he turned around. Yang Guang leaned out and grabbed Xu Ling¡¯s wrist, easily pulling her up. A gust of wind blew in front of him, bringing with it a hint of moisture. The air was very fresh. Yang Guang lit the torch, and the yellow flame immediately lit up. At the same time, there was a series of crackling sounds. After the flame was fully ignited, he raised the torch and brought Xu Ling into the cave. The ground was wet and slippery, and there was a lot of wet mud. However, it was still considered flat and not difficult to walk. However, after walking for only two steps, there was already a slope in front of them, which made it a little difficult to walk. Yang Guang held Xu Ling¡¯s hand, and the two of them carefully walked up. It took them a little effort to climb up this slope. As the fire lit up the space in front of them, Xu Ling and Yang Guang were stunned. The fire could only illuminate a dozen meters around them, but they still saw extremely beautiful scenery. It was not clear how big the cave was, but as far as their eyes could see, there were many colorful stalactites, as if they had entered a stone forest! Yang Guang held the torch in one hand and pulled Xu Ling with the other. He did not care about the mud under his feet. As he enjoyed the beautiful scenery, he walked deeper into the stone forest. The stalactites reflected the light of the fire. Their shapes were strange and beautiful, causing both of them to forget to speak. After walking for a while, the light of the fire gradually dimmed. Only then did Yang Guang notice that the torch was about to burn out, so he hurriedly said to Xu Ling, ¡°Let¡¯s stop here first. Let¡¯s go back and come back another day!¡± ¡°Okay, bring a flashlight in next time!¡± Xu Ling nodded, and the two of them turned around and walked out of the cave. When they reached the outside, the two of them were still a little immersed in shock. After a long while, Xu Ling remembered and could not help but say with some annoyance, ¡°I forgot just now. I should have taken a few pictures!¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay. This cave can¡¯t escape. Let¡¯s take pictures next time!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°Sister, this cave is so beautiful. Can it be developed into a tourist attraction?¡± ¡°Of course!¡± Xu Ling nodded and continued, ¡°It¡¯s just that we don¡¯t know how big the inside is yet. Let¡¯s explore it carefully later!¡± ¡°Okay, we¡¯ll come back when we¡¯re fully prepared!¡± Even though that was the case, both of them felt that this cave was very worth developing. No matter what was deep inside, just the stalactite forest just now was enough to become a very good landscape. It was already past three o¡¯clock in the afternoon when they returned home. The refrigerator had already arrived, and Wu Xiaolian had also packed the wild boar meat inside. Seeing the two of them return, Wu Xiaolian hurriedly asked, ¡°How was it? What did you find in the mountain?¡± Xu Ling smiled and told her what she had seen in the mountain. At this time, Yang Guang stepped into the room. First, he charged the flashlight. After thinking for a moment, he took out his phone and called Qi Yingxue. After the call was connected, he said to Qi Yingxue, ¡°Sis, if you have time, help me go to the market and see if there are any strong-light torches available.¡± ¡°Sure, why do you need this?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. ¡°I found another cave and want to explore it properly because it might be very big inside. It can¡¯t be done without good lighting!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Is that so? I¡¯ll go and take a look for you later.¡± Qi Yingxue said and then asked, ¡°Is it urgent?¡± ¡°It¡¯s not very urgent, but it would be best if it could be delivered tomorrow. You can hand the flashlights to the bus driver. I¡¯ll wait at the terminal!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Okay, I got it. Let me go to the market first!¡± Qi Yingxue said and hung up the phone. Yang Guang decided that the flashlight would arrive the next day, so he wanted to go into the mountain again to inspect the cave. However, just as he went out to the courtyard, a car stopped outside.. Chapter 150 - Entered the Cave Again Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Seeing the car, Yang Guang felt a little familiar, but before he could think of who it was, the person in the car had already come down! Seeing Lu Wenwen, Yang Guang was stunned! ¡°Are you surprised?¡± Lu Wenwen put her hands behind her back and slowly walked into the courtyard, looking like a Lolita from an anime. ¡°Of course I¡¯m surprised. I thought you would take a long time to come back, but I didn¡¯t expect you to come so soon!¡± Xu Ling stood up and said. ¡°Yeah, I applied to my superior, and I didn¡¯t participate in the mission. Then I transferred my job and came here!¡± Lu Wenwen stuck out her tongue and said in a delicate voice. Her words made everyone stunned. Then, Yang Guang hurriedly asked, ¡°What¡¯s the meaning of this? Are you going to work in Qingshan Village?¡± ¡°No, I was transferred to the county town to be in charge of your work here!¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°Really?¡± Xu Ling and Wu Xiaolian were pleasantly surprised when they heard that. Yang Guang was a little puzzled. He looked at her and asked, ¡°Why aren¡¯t you in the provincial capital anymore? How are you going to develop in our small county in the future?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry about it. Anyway, I¡¯ll be close to you in the future, so I can come and see everyone often!¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°Good news, good news!¡± Wu Xiaolian smiled and held her hand. ¡°You¡¯re just in time. We just slaughtered a wild boar today, and there¡¯s still a lot of pork left!¡± ¡°Really? Then I¡¯m going to try it!¡± Lu Wenwen¡¯s interest was immediately piqued when she heard that. Because of her arrival, the house became much livelier. Wu Xiaolian and Xu Ling were both gentle characters, but Lu Wenwen was different. She was lively and cheerful, so the yard was soon filled with laughter. It was the next morning. Just after breakfast, another car came to the door. It was Qi Yingxue. After getting out of the car, she carried a suitcase. Seeing this, Yang Guang hurriedly went out to welcome her. ¡°Sister, why did you personally bring it here?¡± ¡°I was afraid that you would be anxious!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled gently and then asked, ¡°Isn¡¯t this Wenwen¡¯s car? Is she here too?¡± ¡°She came last night. She said that she¡¯s going to work in the county in the future. She will be very close to us!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Is that so? That¡¯s great!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and handed the suitcase to him. ¡°I bought ten strong flashlights. They were fully charged last night. You can use them!¡± ¡°That¡¯s great. Thank you, Sister Xue!¡± Yang Guang was extremely happy and very excited. After that, he could not wait to enter the mountain again. In the end, other than Wu Xiaolian and her child, everyone else wanted to go and take a look. In the end, Yang Guang brought the three ladies out. As she watched them walk far away, Wu Xiaolian held her child and looked at them. She thought to herself, ¡°I used to worry about not having any girls, but now I have to worry more. Which one will Yang Guang choose?¡± The entire journey was silent. Yang Guang and the rest entered the mountain and soon arrived at the entrance of the cave where the mountain torrents surged out. Seeing the situation here, Qi Yingxue and Lu Wenwen were both very surprised. They saw the traces left by the mountain torrents along the way, but in the end, they came out from this cave. There was so much water, how on Earth was it stored? With curiosity, everyone went up to the entrance of the cave. Then, each of them held a strong flashlight and walked into the cave. Soon, Lu Wenwen¡¯s cheers echoed in the cave. The colorful stalactites made her feel as if she was in a fairytale world. Naturally, she was very happy. Qi Yingxue and Xu Ling also began to take photos in a hurry. They simply couldn¡¯t stop themselves from going back. Just like that, the four of them went deeper and deeper. Soon, they entered a few hundred meters into the cave. There were not only stalactites in the cave but also all kinds of stones with strange shapes. Some looked like animals, some looked like people, and some looked like big trees. It was simply a natural stone museum. Seeing such strange stones, Qi Yingxue said to Yang Guang, ¡°No matter how it was formed, this place has a lot of tourist value. It will definitely attract a lot of tourists!¡± ¡°Yeah, I also didn¡¯t expect that a mountain flood would actually bring me such a harvest!¡± Yang Guang laughed. ¡°It¡¯s simply Heaven¡¯s blessing!¡± Qi Yingxue said. As they walked into the cave, everyone discovered that there was another slope here. The rocks were wet and there was some mud. Everyone held hands and carefully climbed up. When the flashlight shone, the four of them were stunned once again! What they saw was a pitch-black water surface. They couldn¡¯t see the end of it! Lu Wenwen picked up a stone and threw it out. Then, they heard a splash. The sound of the water reverberated in the cave several times before it stopped. ¡°Good God, this is an underground lake!¡± She turned around and said with her eyes wide open. ¡°I don¡¯t know how big this lake is or how deep it is. Who knows how to swim?¡± Yang Guang asked. In the end, the three ladies looked at each other and nodded! However, although they nodded, no one took the initiative to go into the water to take a look. Including Lu Wenwen, she also said with a little fear, ¡°It¡¯s too dark here. I don¡¯t dare to go down. What if there¡¯s a monster in the water?¡± ¡°Uh, there shouldn¡¯t be any monsters, but it¡¯s indeed too dark. Let¡¯s talk about it in the future!¡± Yang Guang said. Just as he was about to say, ¡°Let¡¯s go back,¡± a black shadow flashed on the surface of the water, and something jumped out from the water! The ladies were so scared that they let out a cry of surprise, and Yang Guang was also shocked! However, when that thing landed on the rock and slid down the slope to the stalactite, it made a series of crackling sounds on the ground before everyone realized that it was a fish. They looked at each other and couldn¡¯t help but laugh! It was funny that they would be so frightened by a fish. But soon, everyone¡¯s attention was attracted to the fish because the fish was very big! This guy ran out of the water and landed on the ground, but it didn¡¯t stay idle. Its tail flapped desperately, making waves of sounds. ¡°It¡¯s strange that there¡¯s an underground lake in the mountain belly, but there¡¯s actually such a big fish?¡± Lu Wenwen said this and turned to look at Yang Guang. ¡°Your place is really too strange!¡± Yang Guang shrugged. ¡°I don¡¯t know what¡¯s going on either!¡± ¡°Let¡¯s see what kind of fish this is. We¡¯ll have something for lunch again today!¡± Xu Ling said this and walked down the slope. However, she took a careful step and slipped, causing her butt to sit on the ground and slide to the bottom of the slope. Yang Guang¡¯s heart ached and he quickly wanted to go down to take a look. However, he also slipped and fell to the bottom of the slope! However, both of them were fine. It was just that their pants were dirty. Therefore, when she saw this scene, Lu Wenwen laughed until her waist bent. In the end, extreme joy begets sorrow. She also accidentally slipped and fell to the bottom of the slope. In the end, only Qi Yingxue was unharmed and carefully climbed down. The fish could no longer jump. Yang Guang bent down to pick it up and weighed it.. Then, he said in surprise, ¡°This fish is at least 30 kilograms!¡± Chapter 151 - Delicious Fish Soup Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The fish was already on the verge of collapse. It couldn¡¯t move even after being held by Yang Guang. It was slowly squirming. Lu Wenwen was a little curious. She shone her flashlight on the fish. ¡°What kind of fish is this? I don¡¯t think I¡¯ve seen it before!¡± Qi Yingxue was a restaurant owner and knew a little about fish. She looked at it and said, ¡°I don¡¯t know this one either. Look, its eyes are almost gone. It must have been living in the dark water for a long time and its eyes have deteriorated!¡± ¡°Who cares what kind of species it is? As long as it tastes good!¡± Yang Guang said and turned to look at the slope. ¡°When this place is developed, we can build a platform on it. We can let the tourists experience the feeling of fishing in the cave!¡± ¡°Ah, you want to build a scenic area? Everything is to attract tourists!¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°How can we make money if we don¡¯t let the tourists be happy?¡± Yang Guang chuckled and hugged the big fish. ¡°Let¡¯s go home first. This place will definitely be developed into a scenic area. I¡¯ve already thought of a name. It¡¯s called the Greater World!¡± Everyone left the cave and walked out of the valley. When they were almost at the village entrance, Xu Ling was still a little nervous. She didn¡¯t want the villagers to see her in a sorry state. After all, her butt was covered in mud. It was too ugly. In the end, she was unlucky. As soon as they reached the entrance of the village, she saw Sun Wannian coming out of the village with a flock of sheep. When Xu Ling saw that, she quickly hid behind Yang Guang. But there were four people. How could they avoid him? Moreover, Yang Guang was carrying a big fish in his arms. How could Sun Wannian not come over to take a look? Sure enough, when the old man saw them, especially the fish, he immediately ran over with his eyes wide open. ¡°What happened?¡± ¡°What? Why are you stunned?¡± Yang Guang asked with a smile. Sun Wannian¡¯s eyes were wide open. ¡°Where did this fish come from?¡± ¡°I caught it in the mountains!¡± Seeing his surprised expression, Yang Guang laughed. However, Sun Wannian¡¯s eyes were wide open. ¡°Stop fooling around. There¡¯s at most a pond in the mountains. How can there be such a big fish?¡± ¡°Uncle Sun, I can¡¯t help it if you don¡¯t believe me. I¡¯ll catch a few more later and ask you to come my home to drink fish soup!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and did not explain further. He carried the fish and left. Xu Ling used her hands to cover her butt as if she was trying to bury her head in the sand. She quickly followed him. It was not until they reached home that she heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she dragged Lu Wenwen back to her room to change her clothes. After listening to Yang Guang¡¯s explanation, Wu Xiaolian could not help but turn her head to look at the mountains to the west. ¡°It¡¯s really strange. There¡¯s actually a lake in the mountains?¡± ¡°Yeah, that lake has probably existed for hundreds or thousands of years. For some unknown reason, the lake water broke through the stalactite cave and flowed out of the mountains.¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°If not for that, I¡¯m afraid no one would have discovered its existence!¡± ¡°Then, can this fish be eaten?¡± Wu Xiaolian asked. ¡°It can definitely be eaten, don¡¯t worry!¡± Yang Guang patted the smooth scales on the fish¡¯s body with a look of certainty. When Xu Ling and Lu Wenwen came out after changing clothes, he had already used the scimitar to cut open the fish. ¡°Oh my God, how can you use it!¡± Lu Wenwen cried out in surprise and ran over to say. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Seeing her shocked expression, Yang Guang raised his head. ¡°This is a treasured knife, and you actually used it to kill fish?¡± Lu Wenwen¡¯s eyes widened. ¡°What¡¯s wrong with a treasured knife? Isn¡¯t it used to cut things? Can it only be used to kill people?¡± Yang Guang asked back. ¡°Uh, whatever you want!¡± Lu Wenwen couldn¡¯t refute him. She could only glare at him, get up, and run away. After cleaning up the internal organs and scales, Yang Guang used the scimitar to chop the fish into pieces and then handed it to his sister-in-law. Wu Xiaolian¡¯s culinary skills were without a doubt. She stir-fried the fish in a pot of oil, then added hot water and began to stew it. When it was noon, a strong fragrance wafted out from the courtyard. In the end, everyone could not hold it in anymore and run into the kitchen. Looking at the milky white fish soup that was rolling in the pot, Lu Wenwen swallowed her saliva. ¡°My God, how can it be so fragrant?¡± ¡°I¡¯ve eaten a lot of fish, but this is the first time I¡¯ve tasted such a strong fragrance!¡± Qi Yingxue added. ¡°What kind of fish is this?¡± Xu Ling asked. No one could answer her question. Everyone was drooling as they watched the fish soup. When it was out of the pot and brought to the dining table, Lu Wenwen couldn¡¯t wait to scoop up a spoonful of it. She didn¡¯t care that it was hot and just took a sip. Everyone looked at her intently, wanting to hear what she had to say. In the end, Lu Wenwen pouted and almost spat! Wu Xiaolian was shocked. ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Doesn¡¯t it taste good?¡± ¡°No, it¡¯s too good. I¡¯m afraid that I won¡¯t be able to drink such fragrant fish soup in the future!¡± Lu Wenwen said with a sobbing tone. ¡°Uh, you scared me!¡± Yang Guang glared at her and hurriedly scooped up a spoonful of soup as well. When the thick soup entered his mouth, the fresh and sweet taste immediately spread to the tip of his tongue. The taste was simply indescribable! He picked up another piece of fish meat and tasted it. The fish meat was compact and very chewy. Even if it was stewed over a large fire for a period of time, it would not disperse. The taste was also very fragrant and sweet. Everyone praised it endlessly as they ate. They all said that this was a high-class delicacy. Seeing that everyone liked it, Wu Xiaolian smiled and said, ¡°Such a big fish can¡¯t be stewed in one pot, so I left half of it. You can take the rest, Yingxue.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t!¡± Yang Guang raised his head and immediately said, ¡°How can half a fish be given away? I¡¯ll go again in the afternoon and get a few more. You should bring them back, Sister Yingxue and Wenwen!¡± Hearing him say this, Qi Yingxue immediately smiled and was very happy. Lu Wenwen also smiled sweetly and quickly said, ¡°That¡¯s more like it. Thank you, Brother!¡± Yang Guang¡¯s soles became weak from calling her brother. He immediately became even more energetic, thinking that he had to catch a few more fish in the afternoon! Just like that, everyone drank their fill of fish soup and ate up the fish meat. All of them had satisfied expressions on their faces. The fish head and bones were not wasted either. Little Guang crunched under the table and chewed them all up. After eating his fill, Yang Guang packed his things and left the house with a scimitar at his waist. After running for the whole morning, he did not let the ladies follow him. This time, it was to catch fish and he did not need anyone¡¯s help. Yang Guang felt that he could do it alone. He rushed into the mountain excitedly and headed straight for the cave. Soon, Yang Guang returned to the lakeside. He had been fishing since he was young. Yang Guang was not unfamiliar with this, so he quickly fixed the fishing line and tied it to a wooden stick he had just cut. Then, he threw the hook into the water. He thought it would be easy to take the bait, but after waiting for almost half an hour, the hook had not been bitten once! Yang Guang was puzzled. After thinking carefully, he patted his own head! The fish here were all blind. Their eyes were almost gone. How could they see the bait? Thinking back to how the fish had appeared, he suddenly had an idea! Hence, Yang Guang stood up and started shouting at the surface of the lake. Needless to say, this move was really effective.. A school of fish began to jump on the surface of the water! Chapter 152 - Selling Vegetables Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The louder the shouting, the happier the fish jumped! Yang Guang understood that the underground lake was usually very quiet and there was no movement. Once there was a sound, the fish would be scared and jump up in a panic! After understanding the principle, Yang Guang began to shout. In the blink of an eye, five or six fish jumped out of the water and landed at the bottom of the slope. When he saw that there were enough fish, Yang Guang stopped shouting. One fish weighed 20-30 kilograms. It was an embarrassing thing to kill so many fish and not be able to carry them. When he returned to the bottom of the slope, the six fish were all put into the basket after being knocked unconscious. Yang Guang spent some effort to stand up. After cultivating the Method of Divine Farmer, he felt a little tired as they were close to 200 kilograms. However, he didn¡¯t feel tired when he thought of Qi Yingxue¡¯s smiling face. Carrying the fish on his back, Yang Guang left the cave in large strides and quickly returned home. As expected, when Qi Yingxue and Lu Wenwen saw that he had brought back so many fish, their eyes immediately curved into a smile. Then, as they were in a hurry to go back, they didn¡¯t wait for Yang Guang to disembowel the fish and directly loaded them into the car. Just as they were about to set off, Qi Yingxue said to Yang Guang, ¡°There might be news from He Yu very soon. The scenic area is about to enter the construction stage with the opening of the road. If you have time, you should think about the 200 million!¡± ¡°I know. Sister, don¡¯t worry. I will think of a way in the next two days!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Okay, I¡¯m making a move first then!¡± Qi Yingxue nodded and got into the car. Lu Wenwen also had something to do, so she left with her. The house became quiet again, but now that Yang Guang was in a good mood, he didn¡¯t feel anything. Xu Ling was the same. She sat in the room and looked at the photos taken on her phone. Thinking of the scenes of tourists everywhere in the future, her face smiled like a flower. Everything was developing in the most beautiful direction. Two days passed. Yang Guang¡¯s greenhouse harvested the first batch of vegetables. The vegetables were all leafy. The cucumbers, tomatoes, and the like would take a few days to ripen. When it was time to harvest, Mrs. Niu and the other women were a little busy. So this time, almost the entire Qingshan Village went into action. Even Wu Xiaolian came with her child. The vegetables in the two greenhouses were put away, and the soil at the roots was washed and tied into bundles. Everyone worked on these tasks for the whole morning. Soon after, the truck from the county town arrived. Since there was no road leading to this side, everyone had to carry the vegetables one by one and carry them to the truck. Yang Guang estimated that this batch of vegetables was more than 7,000 kilograms. Yang Guang knew that Qi Yingxue¡¯s restaurant could not take them all in one go. Even if she wanted it, he could not give it to her! This was because Yang Guang knew that she was only doing this to help him. Yang Guang could understand her intentions, but he did not want to add too much trouble to her! Therefore, after loading the vegetables, Yang Guang also got into the truck. On the way to the county town, he discussed with the truck driver. After they unloaded the goods at the eco restaurant, the rest would be sent directly to the wholesale market. Yang Guang could pay more for the freight. After the agreement, after a period of a bumpy ride, the truck drove into the county town. When they arrived at the backyard of Qi Yingxue¡¯s restaurant, she saw a truck full of vegetables. Just as Yang Guang had expected, she directly requested for all the vegetables to be unloaded. Therefore, Yang Guang hurriedly said, ¡°Sister, there are so many vegetables. The restaurant won¡¯t be able to use them in a short period of time. You can keep some for now. I want to sell the rest at the wholesale market!¡± ¡°No need. give them all to me. I have a way to help you sell them!¡± Qi Yingxue said. Yang Guang looked at her. ¡°What way?¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Qi Yingxue was stunned by the question. Then, she smiled and said, ¡°Anyway, I have a way. I know a few owners who also run a restaurant. If everyone shares a portion, these vegetables will all be sold!¡± ¡°Sis, I don¡¯t study much. Don¡¯t lie to me!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°I know that those in the same industry are enemies, so I didn¡¯t think that you would have friends who also own a restaurant!¡± Qi Yingxue was speechless. Seeing that her lie had been exposed, she could only say, ¡°Alright, even if what you said is right, I do have a way to help you. Moreover, if these vegetables of yours are brought to the market, no one will know how delicious they are. They will be bought at an extremely low price. Then, won¡¯t you suffer a great loss?¡± Seeing that Yang Guang did not think much of it, she said, ¡°I¡¯m not afraid to tell you that the prices of your leafy vegetables are very low in the market right now. Because it¡¯s the peak season now, the purchase price per kilogram will not reach one yuan!¡± Hearing this, Yang Guang immediately asked, ¡°Are you serious? It¡¯s so cheap?¡± ¡°Of course it¡¯s true. If you don¡¯t believe me, you can go to the market and see for yourself!¡± Qi Yingxue said, then added, ¡°I have cold storage here. If you put the vegetables here, I promise I won¡¯t pay for it. I¡¯ll sell them all for you within two days, okay?¡± ¡°Okay then.¡± Yang Guang had no intention of going to the market, so he nodded. Soon, the staff of the restaurant brought a cart and moved all the vegetables to the cart. Yang Guang indeed saw a very large cold storage. The cold storage inside was very large, so it was definitely not a problem to put in 7,000 kilograms of vegetables. With that, he was relieved and stopped thinking about selling vegetables. While everyone was moving the vegetables, Qi Yingxue said to him, ¡°Yang Guang, follow me to the office!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Yang Guang nodded and followed her upstairs. When they reached the office, Qi Yingxue sat down and asked, ¡°After the servants summarize the types and weights of the vegetables, I¡¯ll calculate the money for you!¡± ¡°There¡¯s no rush¡­¡± Before Yang Guang could finish his words, Qi Yingxue interrupted him, ¡°Let¡¯s not talk about this for now. It¡¯s not early anyway. Don¡¯t go back tonight. Stay here!¡± ¡°Ah? What¡¯s the matter?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°I¡¯ve invited a few guests tonight. They¡¯re all from various units in the county that are in charge of the canteens. Later, join us too. I¡¯ll introduce you to them!¡± Qi Yingxue said. Yang Guang understood what she meant the moment he heard it. He smiled and said, ¡°There¡¯s no need, right? Actually, can¡¯t we just look for County Head Li? With just a word from her, won¡¯t these vegetables be successfully sold?¡± ¡°Then you¡¯re wrong. Even if I wanted to look for Sister Jinyun, she wouldn¡¯t help me!¡± Qi Yingxue said, then said, ¡°This is discipline!¡± ¡°I understand. It seems that we have to let the people in charge of the canteens know that our vegetables are really delicious before they will buy them!¡± Yang Guang smiled and said. Qi Yingxue nodded, ¡°That¡¯s what I mean!¡± After a pause, she continued, ¡°Also, don¡¯t go back tomorrow. Follow me to the provincial capital. I¡¯ve arranged for a big shot and you should help him to treat his sickness. He will definitely repay you handsomely!¡± Hearing this, Yang Guang was instantly very touched. He looked at her and said, ¡°Sis, you¡¯re too good to me.. How should I thank you?¡± Chapter 153 - Went to My House Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After hearing Yang Guang¡¯s words, Qi Yingxue glanced at him. ¡°If you want to thank me, just focus on developing your own career. Then, choose a good girl and live a good life!¡± ¡°Uh, why are you talking about this?¡± Yang Guang laughed bitterly and scratched his head. ¡°You¡­ maybe it¡¯s because you¡¯re destined to be liked by the opposite sex. Why do I feel that Lingling and Wenwen seem to like you?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. ¡°Huh?¡± Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°Lu Wenwen likes me too?¡± With that, he admitted that he knew that Xu Ling liked him. Now, he couldn¡¯t take back his words! Qi Yingxue¡¯s eyes flashed but she didn¡¯t say anything. She just said indifferently, ¡°Girls understand girls¡¯ thoughts the most. I can see it!¡± Err¡­¡± Yang Guang did not know what to say for a moment. His face was filled with embarrassment. Qi Yingxue did not intend to continue. She only sighed and said, ¡°I don¡¯t want to care too much about the matters of you young people. You can do as you see fit!¡± Yang Guang smiled when he heard that. ¡°Don¡¯t keep saying that. If you keep saying it, your mentality will become old!¡± ¡°I am quite old after all!¡± Qi Yingxue said this. No one knew if she was talking about her physical or mental age. As they were talking, someone knocked on the door and sent in a list. Qi Yingxue looked at it and then calculated the price. After summarizing it, she raised her head and said to Yang Guang, ¡°It¡¯s all done. There are five types of leafy vegetables, a total of 7,000 kilograms. I¡¯ll give you 35,000!¡± ¡°That much?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s eyes widened. He had not expected this at all. In his opinion, it was already very good that these vegetables could be bought for more than 10,000. After all, in the vegetable shops in the market, there were only about one to two yuan for each kilogram. ¡°It¡¯s a little too much, but the quality is important. The taste and nutrition of your vegetables are not something that ordinary vegetables can compare to!¡± Qi Yingxue said this. Then, without waiting for Yang Guang to thank her, she immediately continued, ¡°Also, remember, if anyone asks about the price of vegetables during dinner, you must insist on four to five yuan. Don¡¯t say they are cheap!¡± ¡°Why? Will they buy such expensive vegetables?¡± Yang Guang asked. Qi Yingxue smiled slightly. ¡°Of course, you can rest assured!¡± It was evening. A few special guests came to the restaurant and were invited to a private room on the third floor by the waiter. Qi Yingxue was treating, and Yang Guang was accompanying her. He got to know the people in charge of the canteens. The exchange during the meal was brief. After dinner and sending off the satisfied people, Yang Guang followed Qi Yingxue to the office. After sitting down, Qi Yingxue let out a long sigh. ¡°This is great. We have satisfied their stomachs. In the future, you won¡¯t have to worry about the sales channels for your vegetables.¡± Looking at her flushed cheeks from drinking a few glasses of wine, Yang Guang said sincerely, ¡°Sis, thank you so much!¡± ¡°Again?¡± Qi Yingxue rolled her eyes at him and said in a bad mood, ¡°If we continue with the pleasantries, it will appear distant!¡± ¡°Well, you have to allow me to express my feelings!¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. At this time, it was already late. Qi Yingxue drank some wine and gradually felt a little sleepy. Therefore, she stood up and said, ¡°Let¡¯s go. We still have to go to the provincial capital tomorrow. Let¡¯s rest early today!¡± ¡°Oh, I¡¯ll send you off!¡± Yang Guang nodded and stood up. Qi Yingxue turned around and looked at him. ¡°You¡¯re not sending me off. You¡¯re going with me!¡± Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°Ah? Where are we going?¡± ¡°Of course, we¡¯re going to my house. Don¡¯t tell me you¡¯re going to stay in a hotel? We have to wake up early tomorrow!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Is this appropriate?¡± Yang Guang scratched his head and asked hesitantly. Qi Yingxue smiled. ¡°There¡¯s nothing inappropriate about it. Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m staying alone at home. There¡¯s no one else!¡± ¡°Alright.¡± Yang Guang nodded and didn¡¯t say anything else. The two of them went downstairs. Since they were drunk, they couldn¡¯t drive, so they started walking on the road. As they walked, Qi Yingxue suddenly remembered what had happened before. She couldn¡¯t help but burst into laughter. She looked at Yang Guang and said, ¡°Watch out today. Don¡¯t get your buttocks pricked again!¡± Yang Guang shook his head in embarrassment. ¡°It was an accident last time!¡± The two of them talked as they walked forward. Not long after, they arrived at Qi Yingxue¡¯s residence. This was an apartment building. After taking the elevator upstairs, they came to the end of the corridor. Qi Yingxue opened the door. The house was not very big. There was a living room and a bedroom, but the decorations were still very warm. Looking at the environment and smelling a faint fragrance, Yang Guang could not help but ask, ¡°Sister, is this the first time a man has come into your house?¡± Qi Yingxue was a little tipsy. She turned to look at him and said, ¡°Sort of.¡± ¡°Sort of?¡± Yang Guang was a little confused. ¡°Then is it true or not?¡± ¡°You¡¯re not the only man, but you¡¯re the only young one!¡± Qi Yingxue kicked off her shoes and walked into the bedroom. Yang Guang was stunned for a while before he understood what she meant. In this house, only the elders, such as father and uncles, had visited. As for the young men, he was the only one! When he thought of this, Yang Guang¡¯s eyes lit up. At this moment, Qi Yingxue had already changed her clothes and was wearing a nightgown as she walked out. ¡°Are you going to take a shower? I¡¯m going to take a shower first, alright?¡± Seeing that she was still a little drunk, Yang Guang could only nod. ¡°Alright, you can take a shower first.¡± Qi Yingxue entered the bathroom. Not long after, the sound of water splashing could be heard. Yang Guang sat on the sofa and was a little dazed. With such a scene and situation, he was momentarily at a loss. In fact, many ridiculous thoughts even appeared in his heart! The more he thought about it, the more crooked it became. In the end, he was still the one who gave himself a slap. After that, he muttered to himself in a low voice, ¡°Kid, don¡¯t be a jerk. Sister Yingxue treats you so well. How can you take advantage of her!¡± It turned out that he had suddenly thought that Qi Yingxue had drunk too much and the two of them were alone in the same room. Then, wouldn¡¯t something happen that night? However, this thought was quickly denied by him. This was because Yang Guang knew that Qi Yingxue was sincerely looking out for his own good. That kind of care that was like a big sister made him not have the heart to do anything to her even though he had some messy thoughts. In the end, Yang Guang¡¯s nature was pure and kind. He was not the kind of person who was heartless. Those who treated him well, he absolutely could not hurt them! Therefore, Yang Guang sat up straight and threw away the messy thoughts in his mind. He simply entered the state where he forgot about everything. After an unknown amount of time, Qi Yingxue came out of the bathroom. Her hair was wet. When she saw Yang Guang sitting cross-legged on the sofa, she asked with a smile, ¡°What are you doing?¡± ¡°It¡¯s nothing. I¡¯m resting. Sister, you¡¯re done bathing. You should rest early!¡± Yang Guang said.. Chapter 154 - Crying Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was trying his best to control his emotions. After Qi Yingxue finished showering, she was full of energy. Her perfect face was filled with temptation. Yang Guang was no longer a virgin. As the saying went, ¡°One knows the taste after eating the marrow.¡± At this moment, faced with such a beauty coming out of the shower, it was naturally difficult for him to control himself. ¡°Then you should also go take a shower and rest early.¡± Qi Yingxue did not know the emotional fluctuations in Yang Guang¡¯s heart. She nodded and went back to the bedroom. The moment she entered the door, Yang Guang rushed into the bathroom! He quickly took off his clothes. He immediately turned on the tap and allowed the cold water to pour on his body. Only then did the flame in his heart be extinguished! After taking a shower, Yang Guang wrapped a towel and came out. Qi Yingxue¡¯s door was already closed. ¡°I guess she¡¯s already asleep?¡± Muttering to himself, Yang Guang looked at the sofa. That was where he would sleep that night. Then, he turned off the lights and walked over to the sofa to lie down. The room became quiet. Thinking of going to the provincial capital the next day, Yang Guang thought that he would sleep early, so he closed his eyes. At the end, when the room was completely quiet, he faintly heard some voices! This voice came from Qi Yingxue¡¯s room. Yang Guang was stunned for a moment before he realized that she was still awake. The voice was not loud, so he could not hear what she was saying. Although Yang Guang was curious, he knew that eavesdropping on her conversation was not right, so he lay still. After an unknown amount of time, just as he was about to fall asleep in a daze, he heard a low sob! Yang Guang instantly woke up and sat up straight. Then, he quickly walked to Qi Yingxue¡¯s door and listened carefully. He realized that it was indeed her who was crying! Yang Guang was anxious. After pondering for a moment, he still gently knocked on the door The sobs in the room stopped abruptly. Then, Qi Yingxue asked in a low voice, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°Sis, what¡¯s wrong with you?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°I¡¯m fine. Don¡¯t worry about me,¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°But I heard you crying,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°¡­¡± Qi Yingxue didn¡¯t respond. After a moment of silence, Yang Guang felt that she didn¡¯t want him to ask any more questions. He turned around and was about to return to the sofa when Qi Yingxue¡¯s voice came from the room. ¡°You, come in!¡± Yang Guang stopped in his tracks. Then, he reached out and twisted the doorknob. He realized that the door was open and not locked. He walked into the room. Since the curtains were drawn, it was a little dark inside. Qi Yingxue did not seem to have any intention of turning on the lights. Yang Guang could only stand at the door and ask, ¡°Sis, what¡¯s wrong with you?¡± ¡°Nothing.¡± Qi Yingxue mumbled, her voice carrying a hint of a nasal sound. As if she felt that it was inappropriate for him to stand at the door, Qi Yingxue continued, ¡°Come over and sit by the bed.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Yang Guang nodded and took a step to sit by the bed. After another period of silence, Qi Yingxue sighed and said, ¡°I just made a phone call and got into an argument with someone, so I¡¯m not in a good mood.¡± ¡°Is that so?¡± Yang Guang came to a sudden realization and recalled the first time he saw her. At that time, it was at the door of the office. A man had also gotten into a big argument with her before leaving in a huff. Thinking of this, he could not help but ask, ¡°Sis, if there¡¯s anything you need, why don¡¯t you tell me? Maybe I can help you?¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need. This is my own matter. You can¡¯t help me!¡± Qi Yingxue said faintly. In the darkness, the two of them could not see each other¡¯s expressions, but she could see Yang Guang¡¯s blurry figure sitting by the bed. At this moment, Qi Yingxue¡¯s heart was mixed with anger and unwillingness. What was strange was that in her heart, there was actually resentment towards Yang Guang! As for why this was the case, she did not know either. After a moment of silence, Yang Guang stood up and said, ¡°If that¡¯s the case, then I¡¯ll go out first!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t!¡± Qi Yingxue blurted out! Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°Ah?¡± She couldn¡¯t take back what she had said, so Qi Yingxue could only cover her head with the blanket. ¡°You, stay with me.¡± Her voice was muffled, and Yang Guang thought he had heard wrong! After being stunned, he hurriedly asked, ¡°What did you say?¡± ¡°You can sleep here tonight. Don¡¯t sleep on the sofa!¡± Qi Yingxue mustered up her courage and lifted the blanket. Yang Guang was stunned. He stood there in a daze for a while. Then, he swallowed his saliva. ¡°Is this appropriate?¡± ¡°It¡¯s just the two of us. You don¡¯t tell anyone else,¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Alright.¡± Yang Guang didn¡¯t say anything more and directly walked onto the bed. After lying down, he could clearly hear Qi Yingxue¡¯s breathing becoming rapid. Yang Guang asked softly, ¡°Sis, even if you can¡¯t solve it, you can tell me. Don¡¯t keep it in your heart!¡± ¡°It¡¯s fine. I¡¯m already fine,¡± Qi Yingxue said. Yang Guang didn¡¯t believe her. ¡°Really?¡± ¡°Really!¡± Qi Yingxue said. She reached out and searched for his arm. Then, she hugged him. ¡°Sleep!¡± Yang Guang was dumbfounded. How could he fall asleep like this? Beside him was a great beauty. His arm was still in her embrace! At this moment, Yang Guang was in a daze. He did not understand why Qi Yingxue would do this! Moreover, he did not dare to move at all. This was because he was afraid that if he moved, he would bump into her. Even if it was not intentional, it would be very easy for others to mistake him for taking advantage of her. Therefore, Yang Guang lay there obediently. He did not even dare to breathe loudly. Just like that, time trickled by. He stared at the dark ceiling. His mind was completely blank. Actually, Qi Yingxue didn¡¯t sleep either. Although she closed her eyes, her heart was filled with butterflies! Thinking about how she actually allowed Yang Guang to stay and even let him get on the bed, Qi Yingxue cursed herself in her heart for going too far. She was simply shameless! But when she thought about the contents of the phone call just now, she gritted her teeth again! In this period of silence, her heart had been going through an intense mental struggle. After an unknown period of time, Qi Yingxue moved her body and rested her head on Yang Guang¡¯s shoulder. Then, she let out a long breath. This posture gave her a strong sense of security. All the annoyance in her heart was gone in an instant. Yang Guang¡¯s body was already a little stiff, so he couldn¡¯t help but move slightly, wanting to change to a more comfortable position. With this movement, Qi Yingxue naturally let go of his arm and entered his embrace! ¡°¡­¡± Yang Guang¡¯s entire body instantly stiffened, and he didn¡¯t dare to move again. Qi Yingxue actually moved around in his embrace, and then buried her head in his chest. ¡°Gulp.¡± Yang Guang swallowed his saliva. ¡°Sis¡­¡± ¡°Hmm?¡± Qi Yingxue¡¯s voice was like a mosquito as she replied in a low voice. ¡°Well, if you do this, I¡¯m¡­ I¡¯m afraid that I won¡¯t be able to control myself!¡± Yang Guang said in distress. ¡°¡­¡± Qi Yingxue did not speak.. She paused for nearly a minute before saying in a low voice, ¡°Tonight, you have an opportunity to do whatever you want!¡± Chapter 155 - Went to the Provincial Capital Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was dumbfounded. After being stunned for a moment, he stammered, ¡°What¡­ What did you say?¡± ¡°You heard it!¡± Qi Yingxue pouted and said in a low voice. ¡°But¡­¡± Yang Guang was still in a daze. He did not understand why she was like this. At this moment, Qi Yingxue raised her head. Half of her body was pressed onto his body. ¡°Only tonight. After tonight, we will still be siblings!¡± After saying that, she lowered her head and moved closer to Yang Guang, pressing her red lips onto Yang Guang¡¯s mouth. At such a young age, how could Yang Guang endure this? Although there were still questions in his mind, his body was no longer under the control of his brain. He hugged Qi Yingxue¡¯s scalding body. In the darkness, the two of them were panting. Qi Yingxue whispered into Yang Guang¡¯s ear, ¡°I, I don¡¯t have experience¡­ Don¡¯t¡­¡± Yang Guang did not hear her at all! ¡­ ¡­ In the blink of an eye, it was morning. When Yang Guang woke up, he was alone on the bed. Scratching his head, he felt like he had a dream last night. Everything that had happened was unreal. But when he lifted the blanket and saw the bloodstains on the bedsheet, those memories instantly became clear! Then, he remembered what Qi Yingxue had said last night. Yang Guang jumped off the bed with a plop and immediately rushed out of the living room! In the end, there was no one outside. His gaze scanned the surroundings. Yang Guang immediately picked up his phone and prepared to call Qi Yingxue to ask where she had gone. But before he could dial the number, the door suddenly rang. Then, Qi Yingxue walked in with a few bags in her hands. Their eyes met. Qi Yingxue was stunned for a moment. Then, she smiled faintly and said, ¡°You¡¯re awake. Hurry up and eat breakfast!¡± After saying that, she placed the things in her hands on the table. After opening them, there was some soy milk, fried dough sticks, and white rice porridge. Seeing her busy at the table, Yang Guang once again felt like he had been dreaming last night. ¡°What are you in a daze for? Hurry up and eat. We only have ten minutes left. The car will be downstairs soon!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Okay.¡± Yang Guang then remembered that he still had to go to the provincial capital, so he quickly nodded and went to the table. ¡°You eat first. I¡¯ll comb my hair.¡± Qi Yingxue quickly walked into the room. When she came out, her hands were already wrapped up with a lot of things. They were all sent into the laundry basket in the bathroom. The most obvious one was the bedsheet. Seeing that Qi Yingxue was busy, Yang Guang could not help but ask, ¡°Sis, last night¡­¡± Before he could finish, Qi Yingxue raised her head to look at him. ¡°Remember, this is the last time I¡¯m going to tell you. Treat what happened last night as a dream. We¡¯re still siblings. If you can¡¯t forget it, then we won¡¯t even be able to be siblings!¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Yang Guang was frightened by her serious expression and didn¡¯t dare to say anything more. Qi Yingxue tidied up and saw that Yang Guang had already eaten, so she picked up her bag. ¡°Let¡¯s go, the car is already downstairs!¡± ¡°Aren¡¯t you going to eat?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°I¡¯m not hungry.¡± Qi Yingxue said and went straight out of the door. Yang Guang had no choice but to follow. The two of them went downstairs together. As expected, there was a black sedan parked by the roadside. He could recognize the driver. It was Mr. Li. He was Chen Zhiyuan¡¯s subordinate. ¡°Yang Guang, you sit in the front. I¡¯ll be at the back. We can rest on the road,¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Okay.¡± Yang Guang nodded and opened the door of the passenger seat. Mr. Li nodded at him and didn¡¯t say anything. After the two of them got into the car, he started the car and drove on the road. Yang Guang had only been to the county town. He had only heard of the provincial capital, but he had never been there before. Therefore, although he had a lot on his mind, as the car entered the highway, his gaze was attracted by the scenery outside the window. Looking at the flat plains in the distance and the villages and towns that flashed by from time to time, Yang Guang suddenly felt a sense of pride rise in his heart. A vast world and great achievements. Going to the provincial capital was just the beginning. He believed that he would definitely be able to go further in the future. There was no movement from the backseat. After he was tired of looking, Yang Guang turned around to take a look and saw Qi Yingxue leaning her head against the seat. Her long hair hung down and covered her face. From the looks of it, she seemed to have fallen asleep. She was dressed in white that day. With her slender figure leaning against the seat, she looked exceptionally beautiful. After looking at her for a while, Mr. Li could not help but turn around and look at Yang Guang. Sensing his gaze, Yang Guang turned around. The car sped on the highway for more than two hours. In the distance, a vast cluster of buildings appeared. They had arrived at the provincial capital. After alighting from the highway and driving for some distance, the car finally entered the city. At this moment, Qi Yingxue also woke up. She brushed her hair and turned her head to look out of the window. Then, she asked, ¡°Brother Li, are we going straight to the He family¡¯s house?¡± ¡°Yes, Elder Chen should have arrived by now,¡± said Mr. Li. ¡°Okay.¡± Qi Yingxue nodded and then said to Yang Guang, ¡°When we reach the place later, remember to show some respect to him. Elder He is a leading figure in the provincial capital¡¯s business world. He has a lot of influence!¡± ¡°Got it, Sis.¡± Sensing her good intentions, Yang Guang immediately nodded. Entering the bustling streets of the main city district, Yang Guang felt that the buildings in the city were just a little taller and there were more cars. In fact, it was no different from a county town. The only difference was that it was big, right? As his imagination ran wild, the car turned into a small alley. There were tall parasol trees on both sides of the road, so there were fewer pedestrians and cars. Not far ahead was a forest, like a small park. The car drove straight into the park and then saw a few villa-like buildings. After stopping, Qi Yingxue got out of the car. Yang Guang immediately followed her. The two of them, one in front and one behind, had not reached the door of the house when a middle-aged man came out to greet them. ¡°You are Miss Qi and Mr. Yang, right?¡± ¡°Yes, and you are?¡± Qi Yingxue had obviously never been here before, so she asked politely. ¡°I¡¯m the housekeeper here. Miss Qi, you can call me Uncle He!¡± The man smiled. Qi Yingxue smiled. ¡°Hello, Uncle He.¡± ¡°Nice to meet you. Please follow me!¡± Uncle He nodded, turned around, and led the two into the house. They came to a very large room. Chen Zhiyuan was talking and laughing with a white-haired old man. When he saw Yang Guang, he immediately stood up. ¡°Little Friend, we meet again!¡± ¡°Hello, Elder Chen!¡± Yang Guang smiled and quickly nodded. ¡°Let me introduce you. This is Elder He, the president of the Provincial Chamber of Commerce!¡± Chen Zhiyuan said. Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue bowed at the same time. ¡°Hello, Elder He!¡± ¡°Good, good, good. This pair of young people are really a match made in heaven!¡± He Qingda nodded and continued with a smile on his face, ¡°Hurry up and sit down. You must be very tired after coming all the way here.¡± ¡°Elder He, you are wrong. We might be tired after sitting for a few hours in the car, but young people are different!¡± Chen Zhiyuan said with a smile. ¡°That¡¯s true!¡± He Qingda smiled and then looked at Yang Guang, ¡°Oh right, you are the one who cured my granddaughter¡¯s illness, right?¡± Chapter 156 - Medical Treatment Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was stunned. He looked at He Qingda and asked, ¡°Elder He, who is your granddaughter?¡± ¡°Yuyu, haven¡¯t you met her a few times?¡± ¡°Oh?¡± Yang Guang was suddenly enlightened. He thought to himself, ¡°I should have known that since He Yu came from a wealthy family. This old man¡¯s surname is He too. Of course, they are a family! Hence, he quickly nodded. ¡°Yes, I know He Yu!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right!¡± He Qingda nodded and continued, ¡°Her matter shocked our entire family a few days ago. No one would have thought that Yuyu¡¯s illness would suddenly recover!¡± ¡°Her illness is actually not that serious.¡± Yang Guang smiled. He Qingda looked at him. ¡°Even if it¡¯s not serious, Miracle Doctor Yang¡¯s medical skills are enough to shock people. You should know that the best experts in the provincial capital advised Yuyu to go home and recuperate. That is the same as declaring that her illness is incurable.¡± Yang Guang smiled and did not know what to say. Chen Zhiyuan saw that He Qingda was full of praise for Yang Guang and took the opportunity to say, ¡°Elder He¡¯s meaning is that he hopes that you can also give him a check-up to see if there are any chronic diseases on his body. After all, Elder He is already old!¡± ¡°Oh, there¡¯s no problem with that.¡± Yang Guang nodded. ¡°Then it¡¯ll be hard on Miracle Doctor Yang.¡± He Qingda smiled and continued, ¡°Later, I have some old friends coming over. They all heard that Miracle Doctor Yang was coming and wanted to see you!¡± Yang Guang was stunned. Then, he laughed in his heart. What did he mean by ¡°see you¡±? They were just taking an opportunity to do a physical examination! He did not say much. He stood up and went to He Qingda¡¯s side. ¡°Elder He, give me your wrist. I¡¯ll take your pulse.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± After a series of examinations, Yang Guang withdrew his hand and said to He Qingda, ¡°Elder He, your health is very good. There aren¡¯t any major problems. Although there¡¯s a small problem with your heart, it¡¯s not serious!¡± He Qingda nodded. ¡°My heart is indeed not very good. The doctor said the same thing during the last physical examination!¡± Speaking up to this point, he raised his head to look at Yang Guang. ¡°Oh right, I wonder if Miracle Doctor Yang has any ways to help me recuperate?¡± ¡°Sure, I have a Heart Nourishing Pill that can help you to recuperate your heart and solve that little problem!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°But I don¡¯t have any medicine with me now, so I can only make it up later and send it back to you!¡± ¡°That¡¯s alright, I can wait. I don¡¯t care about that little bit of time!¡± He Qingda smiled. Returning to his seat, Yang Guang asked, ¡°Oh right, Elder He, is He Yu not at home?¡± ¡°She should be at her own home, right?¡± He Qingda said and then laughed, ¡°I forgot to tell you. I¡¯m not her biological grandfather. Yuyu calls me second grandfather. Her grandfather and I are biological brothers!¡± ¡°So that¡¯s how it is!¡± Yang Guang understood and thought to himself, ¡°It seems that the He family is really prosperous. They are a prominent family!¡± After chatting for a while, more people came from outside. There were quite some people. There were seven or eight people. Seeing that the people who came in were all old men and old ladies, Yang Guang did not think too much and greeted everyone one by one. When these old men saw that Yang Guang was a young lad, they were all a little surprised. They did not expect the miracle doctor to be so young. However, after listening to Chen Zhiyuan and He Qingda¡¯s introduction, everyone still believed that Yang Guang was indeed a miracle doctor with unique skills. Therefore, in the following time, Yang Guang checked everyone one by one. When a person reached a certain age, no one was not sick. No matter how good their physique was, there would still be some chronic diseases that tortured people. Therefore, after the examination, Yang Guang diagnosed the illness of these people. After that, seeing that they all wanted to get some medicine back to eat, Yang Guang could only say, ¡°Since everyone is in a hurry, I¡¯ll go buy the medicine first. After I make the pills, I¡¯ll send them to you immediately.¡± ¡°That¡¯s great. I wonder how much time it will take?¡± He Qingda asked. ¡°Very soon. At the latest, at two o¡¯clock in the afternoon.¡± Yang Guang looked at the time and said with a smile. ¡°Okay, okay. Then we¡¯ll wait for Miracle Doctor Yang!¡± He Qingda nodded. Turning to look at Qi Yingxue, Yang Guang asked, ¡°Sister, will you go with me to buy medicine?¡± ¡°No, I¡¯ll stay and accompany Uncle Chen. You can go by yourself. Let Brother Li take you!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Okay.¡± Seeing her expressionless face, Yang Guang¡¯s heart sank. He suddenly remembered the words she said in the morning. He sighed inwardly. He didn¡¯t say much and left the house with Uncle He. After getting in the car and telling Mr. Li where to go, the car left the place and headed straight for the city. While looking for the pharmacy, Yang Guang felt a wave of depression in his heart. He realized that Qi Yingxue had really started to treat him coldly. He didn¡¯t know why! Since she was willing to give herself to him, it was only once. He really didn¡¯t understand why. The more he thought about it, the more depressed he felt. Yang Guang could not help but turn his head to look at Mr. Li. ¡°Brother Li, is Sister Yingxue in some kind of trouble? I mean, something that puts her in a difficult position, or something that is not easy to solve.¡± Mr. Li glanced at him. ¡°I¡¯m not sure. If you want to know, you¡¯d better ask her yourself, or someone close to her!¡± ¡°Alright.¡± Yang Guang laughed bitterly. Then, a figure appeared in his mind! Mu Xiaowan. Oh right, this girl seemed to be in the provincial capital too! Thinking of this, Yang Guang quickly took out his phone and dialed her number. After the call was connected, Mu Xiaowan¡¯s exaggerated voice came from the other side. ¡°Ah, what happened today? The sun has risen from the west. You actually took the initiative to call me?¡± ¡°Hehe, well, where are you?¡± Yang Guang asked with an embarrassed smile. ¡°I¡¯m in the provincial capital. What¡¯s wrong?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. ¡°You are still here? Isn¡¯t it just a wedding?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°I don¡¯t like to hear that. What do you mean it¡¯s just a wedding? That¡¯s a big event in my friend¡¯s life, okay?!¡± Mu Xiaowan said unhappily and then asked, ¡°If it¡¯s nothing, you definitely won¡¯t call me. Tell me, what¡¯s the matter!¡± ¡°It¡¯s nothing, but I¡¯m also in the provincial capital!¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°You¡¯re here too? Where, with whom, and why?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked a series of questions. After explaining a few words, the car arrived at the door of a shop that sold Chinese medicinal herbs. ¡°I¡¯ll go buy the medicine first. If you have time, I¡¯ll contact you later!¡± After Yang Guang hung up the phone, he walked into the shop. He had to buy a lot of herbs, so it took him half an hour to get them all. Then, Yang Guang walked out with two bags in his hands. Just as he walked out, a car stopped. Mu Xiaowan, who was wearing a tennis skirt and white shoes, got out of the car. They looked at each other and Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°You installed a GPS on me? How did you know I was here?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right, I have a GPS!¡± Mu Xiaowan raised her eyebrows and said with a smile. Looking at her beautiful dress, Yang Guang¡¯s heart warmed up, and then he showed the medicinal herbs in his hand. ¡°Then you came at the right time.. I just need a coolie to do the work!¡± Chapter 157 - Hardship Fee Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang said that he was looking for someone to work as a coolie, but in reality, he did not need Mu Xiaowan¡¯s help. The medicinal herbs were placed in her car. After that, he greeted Mr. Li and told him to go back to the He family first. Then, Yang Guang got into Mu Xiaowan¡¯s car. Then, the two of them found a hotel that looked pretty good and booked an hourly room. The two of them carried two large bags of Chinese medicine upstairs. Everyone in the hotel was stunned by what they saw. Yang Guang and Mu Xiaowan had nothing to hide, so they naturally didn¡¯t care about the stares of others. They quickly entered the room. ¡°You play outside, I¡¯ll go to the bedroom to get the medicine.¡± Yang Guang said as he entered the bedroom. ¡°Tsk, so mysterious. Do you think I¡¯m willing to watch?¡± Mu Xiaowan said disdainfully. ¡°It¡¯s not mysterious, but my alchemy methods are too advanced, so it¡¯s inconvenient to show!¡± Yang Guang said in the room. Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes crazily. She sat down on the sofa and took out her phone to play. Time passed little by little, and soon it was two o¡¯clock in the afternoon. Yang Guang let out a long breath. Looking at the seven kinds of pills on the bed, he felt a strong sense of achievement in his heart. These were all the right drugs, enough for He Qingda and the others to take. After putting away the pills and going out, he saw Mu Xiaowan lying on the sofa playing with her phone. Yang Guang was stunned for a moment before he smiled and said, ¡°Big Sister, I could see your panty!¡± ¡°F*ck you. I¡¯m wearing safety pants. How could you see anything?¡± Mu Xiaowan turned around and rolled her eyes at him. She immediately sat up and asked, ¡°Are you done?¡± ¡°Yes, I¡¯m done. Let¡¯s hurry to the He family¡¯s house. Those old men and women are probably anxious from waiting!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°You really have to hurry over!¡± Mu Xiaowan said before she smiled and said, ¡°Sister Yingxue told me to give them the pills as soon as possible. The earlier they see the effects, the more benefits you¡¯ll get, right?¡± ¡°Uh, that¡¯s not wrong.¡± Yang Guang scratched his head and continued, ¡°Actually, I¡¯m not doing it to earn money. I¡¯m doing it mainly to help!¡± ¡°Alright, don¡¯t give me this empty story!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes at him and walked out of the door. After going downstairs to check out, the two of them got into the car. Yang Guang took the opportunity to ask, ¡°By the way, is there something wrong with Siter Yingxue?¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Mu Xiaowan looked at him. ¡°What is it?¡± ¡°It¡¯s something very big that she keeps to herself and she doesn¡¯t want to talk about!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Why are you asking about this all of a sudden?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. ¡°Uh, I¡¯m just curious. Because I think there must be something wrong with her!¡± Yang Guang said. Mu Xiaowan smiled and then glanced at him. ¡°If you¡¯re curious, you can ask Sister Yingxue. If she¡¯s willing to tell you, she¡¯ll naturally tell you. If she¡¯s not willing to tell you, I don¡¯t dare to tell you either!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t. It¡¯s because she won¡¯t tell me, that¡¯s why I¡¯m asking you!¡± Yang Guang scratched his head. ¡°Sister, can you just tell me?¡± ¡°You call me sister now? I¡¯m not going to tell you!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes. Yang Guang was helpless. Then, he said angrily, ¡°If you weren¡¯t driving, I would really spank your a*s!¡± ¡°How dare you!¡± Mu Xiaowan stepped on the brake. Yang Guang¡¯s body pounced forward and almost hit the windshield! ¡°You win. We¡¯re on the road, please drive properly!¡± Yang Guang heard the honking of the car behind him and was immediately speechless. ¡°Hmph, let¡¯s see if you still dare to threaten me!¡± Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes at him. The car quickly returned to the He family¡¯s house. When they entered the house, as expected, those old men and women couldn¡¯t wait any longer. After that, the pills were distributed, and everyone hurriedly took two pills. Seeing this scene, Yang Guang sighed in his heart. When one reached their age, they really cared about their own health the most. Half an hour later, someone exclaimed in surprise. They felt that their joints, which had been in pain all this time, suddenly became hot and didn¡¯t hurt anymore! Some people began to cough and spit out a lot of thick phlegm. After that, their breathing became smoother. ¡°Miracle doctor, he really is a miracle doctor!¡± ¡°I feel much more refreshed. Miracle Doctor Yang¡¯s medicine is indeed magical!¡± The elders discussed excitedly and looked at Yang Guang with admiration. Then, people began to worry about what to do if they ran out of pills. Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, everyone. After you take these pills, your illness will be cured. You don¡¯t need to take them anymore.¡± ¡°But I still want to bring some for my relatives and friends at home. Miracle Doctor Yang, do you still have any more pills?¡± Someone asked. ¡°Yes, yes, yes. I also want a few more!¡± The others immediately echoed. When he heard this, Yang Guang smiled helplessly. ¡°I didn¡¯t prepare much today. I¡¯ve already distributed all of them to you just now!¡± ¡°It¡¯s alright. Everyone, don¡¯t be anxious. After Yang Guang returns home, he can make some more pills and send them to Elder He¡¯s house. Then, everyone can come and take them!¡± Qi Yingxue said. Hearing this, everyone felt relieved. Yang Guang glanced at her. He couldn¡¯t express his gratitude directly, so he could only express it with his eyes. Qi Yingxue acted as if she didn¡¯t see it. Then, she said to He Qingda, ¡°Elder He, it¡¯s late. Yang Guang still has a lot of things to do at home. Then, we¡¯ll go back first!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t be anxious. Wait for me!¡± He Qingda said this and turned to the butler, Uncle He, ¡°Go and get it!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Uncle He nodded and turned to leave. He quickly brought a suitcase over. After opening it, there were bundles of red banknotes. He Qingda said to Yang Guang, ¡°Miracle Doctor Yang, you came all the way here to examine us and heal our illness. You deserve this.¡± Yang Guang knew at a glance that these were one million, the same amount that He Yu had brought last time. Hence, he quickly smiled and said, ¡°Elder He, you are too polite. Actually, as a junior, these are all things that I should do!¡± ¡°Yang Guang, since Elder He has taken them out, you should take them!¡± Chen Zhiyuan said. Hearing him say this, Yang Guang could only nod. ¡°Alright then.¡± Actually, in his heart, he was already ecstatic. Easily earning a million, who could compare to this speed of earning money? ¡°This is just the early-stage money. When Miracle Doctor Yang¡¯s pills are sent over again, we will still give you the hardship fee!¡± Among those old men, a short old man said. ¡°Right right right, we can¡¯t let Miracle Doctor Yang work for nothing!¡± Everyone echoed. ¡°Everyone is healthy, and we¡¯re happy.¡± Qi Yingxue said with a smile, and then she continued, ¡°It¡¯s late, so we won¡¯t disturb everyone. We¡¯ll be leaving first!¡± ¡°Okay, we¡¯ll send you off!¡± Soon, Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue went out under the escort of a group of old men and old ladies. In the end, when he saw Qi Yingxue heading straight for Mu Xiaowan¡¯s car, Yang Guang was stunned! After that, he got into the car and asked curiously, ¡°Sis, aren¡¯t we going home? Why did we get into this car?¡± ¡°Brother Li isn¡¯t going home today. Let¡¯s take Xiaowan¡¯s car to the station and then take the train home!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Oh, alright then.¡± Yang Guang understood and didn¡¯t say anything more. However, just as the car reached the street, his phone rang. After the call was connected, He Yu asked unhappily, ¡°You¡¯re good.. You didn¡¯t contact me when you reached the provincial capital?¡± Chapter 158 - Could Not Leave Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was stunned and immediately asked, ¡°How did you know that I was in the provincial capital?¡± ¡°Is it difficult?¡± He Yu asked and then asked impatiently, ¡°Cut the crap. Where are you?¡± ¡°Uh, I¡¯m in the car. I¡¯m going to the station,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Wait for me at the station. Don¡¯t leave!¡± He Yu said and directly hung up the phone. Yang Guang looked at the screen and turned to look at Mu Xiaowan who was driving. Mu Xiaowan ignored him. She looked at the rearview mirror and said to Qi Yingxue, ¡°Sister, you may not be able to leave today!¡± Although she didn¡¯t hear the voice on Yang Guang¡¯s phone clearly, she felt it and knew it was He Yu. ¡°Well, since He Yu knows, we can¡¯t rush to leave. Let¡¯s wait until we see her first!¡± Qi Yingxue said. Yang Guang turned around to look at her and then at Mu Xiaowan. ¡°So, I don¡¯t have the right to speak?¡± ¡°You do, but you don¡¯t have the right to decide!¡± Mu Xiaowan didn¡¯t look at him either. She looked straight ahead and said. Yang Guang was speechless. Then, he shook his head helplessly. After the car reached the station, Mu Xiaowan drove the car into the parking lot. The three of them didn¡¯t get out of the car and just waited in the car. It did not take long for He Yu¡¯s car to arrive! She knew Mu Xiaowan¡¯s car. After getting out of the car, she walked over and pulled the car door open. After getting in, He Yu first greeted Qi Yingxue and Mu Xiaowan. Then, she raised her hand and punched Yang Guang. ¡°Who told you not to inform me!¡± ¡°Uh, don¡¯t do it!¡± Yang Guang was very helpless and quickly explained, ¡°I didn¡¯t want to stay any longer. I would leave after I settle things, so I didn¡¯t inform you!¡± ¡°Stop explaining!¡± He Yu rolled her eyes and immediately said, ¡°You just don¡¯t treat me as a friend!¡± ¡°I¡¯m really not!¡± Yang Guang looked sincere and then looked at Mu Xiaowan and Qi Yingxue as if he was asking for help. In the end, the two of them smiled faintly. They had no intention of helping him smooth things over! Fortunately, He Yu didn¡¯t insist on getting involved in this matter. After venting for a while, she said to Yang Guang in a deep voice, ¡°It¡¯s fine if you didn¡¯t inform me when you came, but you actually went to my second grandfather¡¯s house. This is a bit too much!¡± ¡°Huh? What¡¯s wrong?¡± Yang Guang was stunned and asked blankly. ¡°If you had told me earlier, I might have been able to give you a few reminders, but it¡¯s too late to say anything now!¡± He Yu said. Yang Guang didn¡¯t do anything, but Qi Yingxue suddenly became nervous. She sat up straight and asked, ¡°Yuyu, what¡¯s going on?¡± He Yu looked at her. ¡°Sister Yingxue, although he¡¯s my second grandfather, the relationship between our two families isn¡¯t very close. There¡¯s even a little conflict that¡¯s not on the surface. It¡¯s just that most people don¡¯t know about this, so it¡¯s not your fault!¡± ¡°Then tell me, what is the matter that needs to be reminded of Yang Guang?¡± Qi Yingxue continued to ask. ¡°About this¡­¡± He Yu pondered for a moment and looked up at Yang Guang. ¡°Do you think that the people you met today went to ask for medicine to cure their illness?¡± ¡°Ah? Isn¡¯t it?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Of course not!¡± He Yu curled her lips and sneered, ¡°Those people were all actors hired by my second grandpa. All the high officials and dignitaries in the provincial capital are all fake!¡± ¡°How could this be?¡± Hearing He Yu¡¯s words, Mu Xiaowan and Qi Yingxue were dumbfounded. ¡°It¡¯s very simple. What this old man wants is your pills!¡± He Yu said and then added, ¡°Ever since second grandpa found out that my illness had suddenly recovered, he was tempted. He even asked me to go home to have a chat. He kept asking me who the miracle doctor was and how he cured my illness!¡± ¡°I could see what he meant at that time, but I didn¡¯t expose him. I only said that he was an unworldly expert and that I couldn¡¯t contact him anymore!¡± ¡°But I didn¡¯t expect that second grandpa would still investigate my whereabouts. Then, he found Elder Chen through your acquaintances in the county town. That¡¯s how he got in touch with you!¡± At this point, He Yu looked at Yang Guang. ¡°You cooperated well. You came here immediately!¡± ¡°It¡¯s not Yang Guang¡¯s fault. I was the one who pulled the strings,¡± Qi Yingxue said awkwardly. Yang Guang looked at her and quickly smiled. ¡°Sister, you don¡¯t have to feel guilty. It¡¯s fine!¡± After saying that, he said to He Yu, ¡°I know what you mean. No wonder those old men and women gathered together. They have all the common illnesses of the elderly. So it turns out that He Qingda wants to use my pills to create the formula for the medicine?¡± ¡°You¡¯re not too stupid!¡± He Yu nodded. Yang Guang glared at her, then he smiled and said, ¡°Unfortunately, the old man¡¯s plan is good, but have you forgotten? My pills have a prerequisite, which is that I must personally refine them to have a magical effect. It¡¯s useless even if he finds out the formula!¡± ¡°Moreover, that formula is the most common one on the market. It¡¯s not worth anything!¡± He Yu narrowed her eyes when she heard that. ¡°I thought you said that on purpose, but it turns out that your pill really can¡¯t be copied?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right, it¡¯s impossible!¡± Yang Guang nodded, then smiled and said, ¡°In a few days, Elder He will understand it himself. Moreover, I didn¡¯t lose out. I got another million today!¡± ¡°Even if you get one million a day, it will take about seven months to get two hundred million. What¡¯s there to be proud of?¡± He Yu rolled her eyes and said. ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. In the future, I might be able to earn two hundred million in one go!¡± Yang Guang smiled and said. ¡°Cheh, you¡¯re bragging!¡± He Yu curled her lips and then said to Mu Xiaowan, ¡°Since you are at the provincial capital, I won¡¯t let you guys leave immediately. How about this? I¡¯ll be the host tonight and treat you guys to dinner!¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need, right? I actually have something to do tonight,¡± Mu Xiaowan said. He Yu glared at her. ¡°Even if you have something to do, you have to reject it. If you don¡¯t go, you¡¯ll be looking down on me and holding a grudge against me!¡± ¡°It¡¯s nothing!¡± Mu Xiaowan smiled helplessly. Then, she could only nod her head. ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll go!¡± ¡°That¡¯s more like it!¡± He Yu nodded her head in satisfaction. ¡°Then it¡¯s settled. At six o¡¯clock in the afternoon, Haitian Restaurant!¡± After saying that, she pushed open the car door and went straight back to her own car. Seeing that she had left, Yang Guang looked at Mu Xiaowan and Qi Yingxue. ¡°It¡¯s only three o¡¯clock now. What should we do?¡± ¡°Let¡¯s find a place to settle down. After eating, we won¡¯t be able to go back tonight,¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Why don¡¯t we go to my grandfather¡¯s place?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. Qi Yingxue was stunned, then she shook her head. ¡°Better not. It¡¯s already afternoon, and there¡¯s not much time left. It¡¯s too impolite.¡± ¡°Alright, then let¡¯s go find a hotel.¡± Mu Xiaowan said. She thought about where to go, then started the car again. Soon, she drove to the opposite side of Haitian Restaurant. This was a hotel, and the exterior decoration looked very high-class. It should be at least a three-star hotel. Yang Guang was now completely a follower. He followed the two women into the hotel, and Mu Xiaowan booked two standard rooms. Hearing the price, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but click his tongue. The provincial capital was the provincial capital. The expenses were really high.. The price was enough to get a suite in the county! Chapter 159 - Eating Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After going upstairs, Mu Xiaowan handed Yang Guang a room card. ¡°That¡¯s yours. I want to chat with sister for a while. Go play by yourself!¡± Yang Guang sighed in his heart. He knew it would end up like this. He had no choice but to take the card. Back in the room, Yang Guang threw the suitcase in his hand on the bed. He sat there for a while feeling bored, then his gaze fell on the suitcase. Last time, he did not bring the money He Yu gave him back home. He had directly deposited it into the bank. He had never felt the feeling of counting money until his hand cramped! Taking advantage of the fact that he had nothing to do now, Yang Guang simply opened the suitcase and took out the bundles of banknotes inside. Then, he sat cross-legged on the bed! As he counted the money and played, Yang Guang¡¯s eyes were so happy that they narrowed into slits. The afternoon passed just like that. When it was around 5:30, He Yu called, ¡°Yang Guang, the place has been booked. When you arrive, say that Miss He booked the private room. The waiter will take you upstairs!¡± ¡°Okay, got it!¡± Yang Guang nodded. After hanging up the phone, he quickly packed the money and stuffed it into the closet in his room. Then, he went out to Mu Xiaowan and Qi Yingxue¡¯s room. When he knocked on the door, he found that the two women had already changed their clothes. One of them was wearing a black one-piece dress while the other was wearing a white one. The two of them stood together like two delicate flowers, which was very eye-catching. Stunned for a moment, Yang Guang could not help but ask, ¡°When did this happen? Did the two of you go shopping just now?¡± ¡°Yes, does this dress look good?¡± Mu Xiaowan turned around and asked with a smile. Yang Guang swallowed his saliva. ¡°Of course it looks good!¡± ¡°Look at you!¡± Mu Xiaowan blushed and glared at him. ¡°Did He Yu inform you that we can go to the restaurant across the street?¡± Qi Yingxue asked with a smile. ¡°Yes, she just made a call. She has already booked a seat,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Let¡¯s go then. We are ready too!¡± Qi Yingxue said and walked out of the door. The three of them went downstairs together. After leaving the hotel, they crossed the road and arrived at the entrance of Haitian Restaurant across the street. Inside the huge French windows, it was very lively with people coming and going. It could be seen that the business here was quite good. After entering the door, the waiter immediately came up to them. ¡°Hello, the three of you. Have you booked a seat?¡± ¡°Miss He booked a private room,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Mr. Yang, right?¡± The waiter quickly asked. After getting confirmation from Yang Guang, she immediately turned around. ¡°The three of you, please follow me!¡± While curiously sizing up the surrounding environment, Yang Guang followed her upstairs. When they passed by the second floor, Yang Guang did not notice that a waiter saw his back. His footsteps paused, and the plate in his hand almost fell to the ground! Yang Guang and the rest went upstairs and entered a large private room. When he saw the huge dining table, Yang Guang could not help but click his tongue. ¡°No way! How many people did He Yu invite? Why did she set up such a big table?!¡± ¡°This is a 12-person table,¡± said the waiter. After sitting down, Yang Guang¡¯s gaze was still sizing up the environment of the private room. At the same time, he said, ¡°He Yu is too outrageous. The person who invited the guests actually came later than the guests!¡± ¡°It¡¯s probably because of the traffic jam. We live close to the restaurant!¡± Qi Yingxue said. Yang Guang was still dissatisfied. ¡°Then why didn¡¯t she leave earlier?¡± Just as he finished speaking, He Yu¡¯s voice came from the door. ¡°I knew someone was talking about me behind my back. No wonder my ears are burning!¡± As she spoke, she also came in from outside the door. ¡°Your ears are burning because your blood circulation is bad. It has nothing to do with being said behind your back!¡± Yang Guang chuckled. He Yu rolled her eyes at him. She sat down and turned around to look. When she saw that the waiter just now had already left, she shouted, ¡°Waiter, everyone is here. Prepare to serve the dishes!¡± ¡°No way? Just the four of us but you have booked such a big private room?¡± Yang Guang said in surprise. ¡°That¡¯s nothing. I¡¯ll pay for the private room!¡± He Yu looked at him. ¡°You¡¯re making a fuss!¡± Yang Guang was speechless. ¡°It¡¯s good to be rich.¡± After shouting, there was no response from outside. He Yu was a little unhappy. She frowned and said, ¡°What¡¯s going on? There¡¯s no one here?¡± Just as she finished speaking, a woman dressed in black rushed in. She was obviously not a waiter. ¡°I¡¯m sorry. The waiter in the private room suddenly had a stomachache. I¡¯m the floor supervisor. Miss He, let me serve you!¡± ¡°Sure.¡± He Yu nodded and continued, ¡°Then serve the dishes. We¡¯re all here!¡± The floor supervisor nodded and turned to leave the private room. Qi Yingxue looked at He Yu and said with a smile, ¡°Yuyu, we¡¯ve made you spend a lot of money today!¡± ¡°I won¡¯t. When you arrive at the provincial capital, I¡¯ll definitely do my part as a host!¡± He Yu said with a smile. ¡°Oh right, I forgot to tell you something!¡± Qi Yingxue seemed to have thought of something and quickly told her about Yang Guang discovering the Stalactite Cave. He Yu was stunned when she heard that. ¡°Really? There¡¯s actually such a place and a lake in the mountains?¡± ¡°Yes, isn¡¯t it amazing?¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and continued, ¡°With this, I believe it will definitely attract many curious tourists!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Everyone has the heart to hunt for novelty. It looks like I have to hurry up and go to the village to take a look!¡± He Yu said. The three girls were chattering away. Yang Guang could not get a word in edgeways, so he simply did not get involved. When the waiter served the dishes, he saw the exquisite dishes and wanted to have a taste of them. He could not help but ask, ¡°Can we talk while eating?¡± ¡°Just eat, no need to ask!¡± He Yu said. Yang Guang rubbed his hands and picked up his chopsticks. ¡°Then I won¡¯t stand on ceremony!¡± Then, everyone ate and chatted. Qi Yingxue and He Yu were mainly talking about the scenic area, and Mu Xiaowan also said something along the way. The three of them basically didn¡¯t eat much, and only Yang Guang was wolfing down the food. The dishes were all served. There were eight dishes on the table. The meat and vegetables were matched, and they looked, smelled, and tasted good. In the spirit of not wasting anything, Yang Guang shook his cheeks and started eating. In the end, the girls didn¡¯t say anything. They just stared at him in a daze. However, before He Yu could make fun of Yang Guang, there was a sudden burst of arguing outside. It was very loud. A man was shouting loudly, as if he was scolding someone. He Yu frowned when she heard this. ¡°What¡¯s going on? This Haitian Restaurant is becoming more and more chaotic. With this, is the business still going on?¡± ¡°Maybe someone drank too much? This is also common,¡± Qi Yingxue said. Yang Guang ate with his head down. He didn¡¯t really care about the voices outside. But as the scolding got louder and louder, he suddenly heard a woman crying. Putting down his chopsticks, Yang Guang was a little stunned. Then, he heard a woman¡¯s angry voice from outside, ¡°Li Hehua, what the Hell are you doing? Hurry up and apologize to the guest, why are you crying!¡± Hearing this, Yang Guang stood up and immediately rushed out! Chapter 160 - He Hua Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Li He Hua, that was the name of someone he knew of! Yang Guang walked out of the door and saw the head waiter scolding a thin woman! Seeing the woman¡¯s face, Yang Guang¡¯s blood rushed to his head! It was indeed her! Sister He Hua lowered her head slightly, her hands clutching the corner of her work clothes, her body trembling! At this moment, a man who was 1.9 meters tall was shouting at her together with the head waiter! The noise attracted the guests from the other private rooms on the third floor. Many people opened the door and looked at the scene outside, not knowing what had happened. ¡°Your stinky waitress doesn¡¯t even have eyes. My clothes cost more than 7,000 yuan. Can a lowly person like you afford to compensate me?!¡± Yang Guang, who was overwhelmed with emotions, saw the man raise his arm as if he wanted to hit Sister He Hua. He immediately roared, ¡°Stop!¡± This shout used the energy in his dantian, causing everyone present to tremble! Looking up and seeing Yang Guang, Li He Hua bit her lip and her eyes turned red! Yang Guang quickly walked to the front and looked at the tall man. ¡°What do you want to do? Hit a woman?¡± ¡°Kid, where did you jump out from?¡± The man was more than half a head taller than Yang Guang. He lowered his head and squinted his eyes. ¡°This woman dirtied my clothes. I want her to kneel down and apologize!¡± ¡°So it¡¯s your clothes? I thought you were disabled from the impact. Why are you so agitated!¡± Yang Guang sneered and reached out to grab Li He Hua¡¯s hand, pulling her behind him. Then, he looked at the floor supervisor. ¡°What were you shouting for just now? Did you ask clearly about the situation? Do you want Sister He Hua to apologize to this grandson?¡± ¡°Kid, you¡¯re courting death!¡± Being called a grandson by Yang Guang, the tall man became anxious. He raised his hand and aimed it straight at Yang Guang¡¯s face! ¡°Bang!¡± With a muffled sound, the man¡¯s body flew into the private room and landed on the table. Then, the table collapsed, and the soup on it immediately covered his entire face! ¡°What kind of dog dares to come out and act like an a*shole? A 7,000 yuan shirt, it¡¯s as if it¡¯s going to kill you!¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and turned to look at the head waiter. ¡°You haven¡¯t answered my question. Have you asked clearly about the situation?¡± The head waiter¡¯s face was pale with fear. The main thing was that Yang Guang¡¯s kick was too vicious. Before she could see clearly, the tall and strong customer was sent flying. She did not dare to speak, but the person in the room that the tall man flew into was unhappy. These people were all here to eat with the man. Now that their companion was beaten, they naturally could not sit idly by. Hence, they grabbed the stools in the room and rushed out. The corridor outside the private room was originally quite spacious, but it could not withstand seven or eight people standing there, not to mention that they were holding something in their hands! Seeing that there was going to be a chaotic battle, Yang Guang turned his head and said, ¡°Sister, you go to our private room. Leave this side to me!¡± ¡°Guang, Guang, don¡¯t cause trouble.¡± Li He Hua bit her lips, her eyes filled with worry. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. They were the ones who started the trouble. With so many people against me alone, what trouble can I cause?¡± Yang Guang smiled and pushed her. At this moment, Qi Yingxue and the others were already at the door of the private room. When they saw this scene, although they didn¡¯t know what relationship Yang Guang had with Li He Hua, they still hurriedly walked over. Yang Guang turned his head and looked at those guys who were holding chairs. He asked coldly, ¡°What do you guys want?¡± ¡°You beat up our brothers. What do you think we want to do?¡± Someone asked. ¡°Oh, at worst, we¡¯ll just pay for his clothes. He even scared my Sister He Hua. What do you say about this?¡± Yang Guang asked with a cold smile. ¡°Kid, don¡¯t be so arrogant. Do you know what this place is? Do you know who Brother Gao is?¡± Someone shouted. Yang Guang looked at that person. ¡°Who is he? What is he selling?¡± ¡°Brother Gao is the partner of this restaurant. If you don¡¯t give us an explanation today, don¡¯t even think about walking out of this door!¡± That person said. ¡°Oh, I thought he was some big shot. He¡¯s just a shareholder of the restaurant, right?¡± Yang Guang sneered. That tall man had been kicked. At that time, he was a little muddle-headed. Now, he had been helped up by his companion. Although the soup on his body was very uncomfortable, he still walked out immediately, with a ferocious expression, he shouted, ¡°Block the entrance for me. Today, I must have one of this kid¡¯s legs!¡± Hearing his words, those people immediately became excited and were eager to give it a try. At this time, He Yu had already asked Li He Hua what exactly had happened just now. After understanding the situation, she came in front of Yang Guang with a straight face and looked at the tall man. ¡°Your surname is Gao?¡± Brother Gao was stunned and turned around to look at her. ¡°Who are you?¡± ¡°You don¡¯t know me?¡± He Yu sneered and then said indifferently, ¡°That¡¯s okay. If your surname is Gao, then I know who you are!¡± Then, her expression changed, she shouted angrily, ¡°Gao Mantang, you only have 5% of the shares in this restaurant. You bring some friends over to eat all day and don¡¯t pay the bill. Just now, you even flirted with the waiter. Do you know what you¡¯re doing?!¡± Gao Mantang¡¯s expression changed. He looked at He Yu carefully. ¡°Who are you?¡± ¡°Gao, Brother Gao, this is Miss He,¡± the head waiter said. ¡°Miss He?¡± Gao Mantang was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened. ¡°You¡¯re Mr. He¡¯s granddaughter?¡± ¡°What else?¡± He Yu looked at him. ¡°My grandfather has 40% of the shares here, but do you believe that with a word from him, your 5% will be immediately taken back?¡± ¡°This¡­¡± Gao Mantang was flabbergasted and instantly stunned. The reason for this was because he knew that He Yu was right. Cold sweat instantly broke out on his forehead. Then, Gao Mantang immediately said, ¡°Then, Miss He, you, what is your relationship with that waiter?¡± ¡°Do you have to have a relationship before you can interfere? Do you have to know each other before you can stand out? Do you want to bully people you don¡¯t know?¡± He Yu asked a series of questions. Gao Mantang was embarrassed by the questions and quickly shook his head. ¡°No, no, that¡¯s not what I meant.¡± ¡°Then hurry up and leave. It¡¯s a good business, but what have you done to it? As a shareholder, don¡¯t you know how to protect the reputation of your shop?¡± He Yu said impatiently. Gao Mantang¡¯s face turned red after being scolded. He didn¡¯t dare to say anything else and just lowered his head to turn around and leave. However, Yang Guang could not take it anymore. ¡°Hey, He Yu asked you to leave. Did I ask you to leave?¡± Gao Mantang stopped in his tracks and turned to look at him. ¡°What else do you want?¡± ¡°I said, I can compensate you for dirtying your clothes!¡± Yang Guang said and then asked, ¡°7,000 yuan, right? I will transfer the money to you later. But you scared my Sister He Hua just now. How do you want to settle this?¡± ¡°You¡­ How do you want to settle this?¡± Seeing Yang Guang¡¯s red eyes filled with killing intent, Gao Mantang¡¯s heart trembled! Chapter 161 - Anger Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang sneered and looked at Gao Mantang. ¡°It¡¯s very simple. You kneel down and apologize to Sister He Hua.¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Everyone present was stunned when they heard this. Qi Yingxue and Mu Xiaowan, who knew Yang Guang better, looked at each other and couldn¡¯t believe their ears. Because the two of them had never seen Li Hehua before, they did not understand why Yang Guang would do this for Li Hehua. He Yu was stunned. She looked at Yang Guang and said, ¡°He doesn¡¯t have to kneel down, right? Just let him apologize.¡± Unexpectedly, Yang Guang turned around and looked at her. ¡°Shut up!¡± ¡°You¡­¡± He Yu did not expect him to yell at her. Her eyes immediately widened. ¡°This is not something to kid about. If he doesn¡¯t give me an explanation for what happened today, he cannot walk out of here,¡± Yang Guang said. Seeing Yang Guang like this, He Yu suddenly realized that it was a different side of him. He Yu recoiled and pouted. She had no choice but to give in. ¡°Fine. Do as you wish. I don¡¯t care.¡± After saying that, she walked to Qi Yingxue. Gao Mantang was dumbfounded and wondered who Yang Guang was. Even the domineering lady of the He family backed down in front of Yang Guang. ¡°I only give you ten seconds. You kneel down and apologize or I break your leg,¡± Yang Guang crossed his arms and said calmly. ¡°Brother Gao, he is too arrogant. Don¡¯t listen to him. Let¡¯s go and cripple him,¡± a person waved a chair and shouted. Even though the person was yelling, he stood at the back and seemed to have no intention of coming near Yang Guang. Yang Guang knew that the person was putting on an act and ignored him. Then, Yang Guang began to count down. Gao Mantang was in a dilemma. He felt that Yang Guang wasn¡¯t someone to be trifled with. However, Gao Mantang didn¡¯t want to be humiliated. How embarrassing would it be to kneel down in front of so many people! Soon, ten seconds passed. Yang Guang finished counting down. Anger flashed in his eyes and he rushed over. Before the crowd could even exclaim, Yang Guang already kicked Gao Mantang¡¯s leg. Everyone heard the sound of Gao Mantang¡¯s bones breaking and instantly fell silent. After that, Gao Mantang¡¯s scream echoed throughout the restaurant. Except for Qi Yingxue and the others behind Yang Guang, everyone looked at Yang Guang as if he was a devil. Their eyes were filled with terror. Yang Guang looked at Gao Mantang, who was lying on the ground and could not get up. Then, Yang Guang sneered and said, ¡°I said that I wouldn¡¯t let you walk out of here.¡± ¡°Now you are happy, right?¡± He Yu walked over and asked Yang Guang. ¡°Yeah. You won¡¯t blame me for being too ruthless, will you?¡± Yang Guang asked with a smile. ¡°No, I won¡¯t. If you¡¯re not angry, let him go to the hospital now,¡± He Yu said as she turned to look at the people beside Gao Mantang. ¡°Hurry up and get him out of here.¡± The people beside Gao Mantang finally recovered from the shock and didn¡¯t dare to say anything. Then, they stepped forward, carefully lifted Gao Mantang up, and rushed downstairs. ¡°You should go down too. Think about what your problem is,¡± He Yu said to the foreman and turned to look at Yang Guang. ¡°Do you want to stay here for a while or leave with Sister He Hua?¡± ¡°Of course I want to sit for a while. I still have something to ask you,¡± Yang Guang said and turned to Li Hehua. ¡°Sister He Hua, I finally found you.¡± After Li Hehua left Qingshan Village, Yang Guang felt different about her. Li Hehua had mixed feelings. When Yang Guang and the others went upstairs just now, Li Hehua recognized him through his back. After all, he was the person that she had been thinking about day and night, but she didn¡¯t dare to greet him. When Li Hehua found that Yang Guang went to the private room she was in charge of, she quickly went to the foreman and lied that she had a stomachache. Li Hehua got the foreman¡¯s permission to not go to that private room after trying hard. However, it was such a busy night in the restaurant, so the foreman arranged for her to go to Gao Mantang¡¯s private room. Those men in Gao Mantang¡¯s private room drank some wine. When they saw Li Hehua¡¯s pretty face and good body, they immediately had evil thoughts. While He Hua was pouring wine, Gao Mantang touched her butt. Li Hehua was shocked and accidentally knocked over the wine bottle. Then, something happened. After hearing the whole story in the private room, Yang Guang sighed. ¡°Sister He Hua, you left without telling me and even changed your phone number. I thought I could never find you.¡± Qi Yingxue and the others now knew who He Hua was. No wonder Yang Guang was so angry. It turned out that he knew Li Hehua a long time ago. Li Hehua lowered her head. She was still a little frightened and didn¡¯t know how to answer Yang Guang. Therefore, she could only remain silent. He Yu asked, ¡°Now things have turned out this way. What should we do next?¡± Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°What do you mean?¡± ¡°You need to clean up your mess. Gao Mantang¡¯s leg was broken. Do you think he will let it go? And what are you gonna do about Sister He Hua? She cannot work here anymore,¡± He Yu said. ¡°Oh, you mean this.¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Sister He Hua will definitely follow me back to Qingshan Village. As for Gao Mantang, I don¡¯t care if he¡¯s dead or not.¡± ¡°You¡­¡± He Yu was so angry that she rolled her eyes. Then, she looked at Yang Guang. ¡°He won¡¯t die, but he suffered a serious injury. As long as Gao Mantang calls the police, the police can arrest you. When the time comes, you¡¯ll have to go to jail.¡± Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°But I still have you, Miss He. You won¡¯t watch me get arrested, right?¡± Seeing that he was grinning, He Yu rolled her eyes at him and said, ¡°Now you call me Miss He. Who just shouted at me and told me to shut up?¡± ¡°I was too mad. I didn¡¯t do it on purpose. Sister He Hua is the person closest to me. If it had been the person closest to you who was bullied, you would have been furious too,¡± Yang Guang laughed and said. When they heard this, Qi Yingxue and Mu Xiaowan both had strange looks on their faces. After that, they saw Li Hehua¡¯s red face and understood something. However, Qi Yingxue was a steady person. Of course she would not ask anything at this moment. Instead, she looked at He Yu. ¡°Yuyu, you also said Gao Mantang was outrageous. In my opinion, it was not Yang Guang¡¯s fault. You should help him.¡± ¡°You are really nice to Yang Guang.¡± He Yu¡¯s words made Qi Yingxue¡¯s face turn red. Then, He Yu continued, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I was just trying to frighten Yang Guang. Gao Mantang would not make a big deal out of this. Just wait. Someone will come in a while.¡± Just as she finished speaking, someone knocked on the door of the private room. ¡°Come in,¡± He Yu said. The door was pushed open. Then, a middle-aged man walked in, looking cold. His eyes darted around the room. When Li Hehua saw him, she immediately stood up and lowered her head. ¡°Sir.¡± He Yu also stood up and looked at the man with a smile. ¡°Well, speak of the devil, Uncle Xiang..¡± Chapter 162 - A Fight Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xiang Nan nodded to greet He Yu. Then, he turned to Li Hehua. ¡°Are you the waitress?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± Li Hehua lowered her head and didn¡¯t dare to look up at him. Xiang Nan squinted his eyes and said in a low voice, ¡°Tell me what happened between you and Gao Mantang just now.¡± ¡°Uncle Xiang, Sister He Hua hasn¡¯t recovered from the shock yet. How about I tell you about that?¡± said He Yu. Xiang Nan glanced at He Yu. ¡°Do you know her?¡± ¡°Yeah. We are friends,¡± said He Yu, Yang Guang was surprised by her words. It was obvious that she was helping him. Xiang Nan looked at He Yu, then Li Hehua, whose body was trembling slightly. He nodded and said, ¡°Okay. I believe that you won¡¯t lie to me.¡± ¡°Of course. Uncle Xiang, you know what kind of person Gao Mantang is. There is no need for me to lie.¡± He Yu told Xiang Nan the whole story in detail. After that, she looked at Xiang Nan. ¡°Uncle Xiang, if the person closest to you was bullied, you would be very furious as well, right?¡± ¡°Of course.¡± Xiang Nan nodded and looked at Yang Guang. ¡°Young man, you¡¯re the one who broke Gao Mantang¡¯s Leg, right?¡± Yang Guang nodded. ¡°Yes.¡± ¡°Good! You are a ballsy man.¡± After Xiang Nan said that, he walked towards Yang Guang. The women present became anxious because they could feel that Xiang Nan was very powerful. Yang Guang could also feel it. As Xiang Nan approached, Yang Guang¡¯s body tensed up. Xiang Nan was definitely not an ordinary man. When Xiang Nan was only three feet away from Yang Guang, Xiang Nan stood still and looked at Yang Guang. ¡°Young man, are you good at martial arts?¡± ¡°I am just strong,¡± said Yang Guang. ¡°Is that so?¡± Xiang Nan smiled and asked meaningfully, ¡°You were able to kick Gao Mantang away and break his leg. It is clear that you are not just strong. How about having a fight with me?¡± ¡°Uncle Xiang!¡± He Yu cried out in surprise and quickly walked over. ¡°Are you going to avenge Gao Mantang?¡± ¡°Why are you so nervous? Do you like Yang Guang?¡± Xiang Nan asked. He Yu immediately blushed and shook her head. ¡°Of course not. Yang Guang is my friend and my business partner. I hope you can let him off the hook. After all, it was all Gao Mantang¡¯s fault.¡± Xiang Nan smiled slightly. ¡°Why are you blushing if you do not like Yang Guang? Don¡¯t worry. I want to have a fight with him simply because I am curious about him. I am not trying to avenge Gao Mantang.¡± After saying that, Xiang Nan turned to look at Li Hehua. ¡°You don¡¯t have to be so nervous. It was not your fault.¡± What Xiang Nan said meant that he would let Yang Guang off the hook. Hearing this, He Yu heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she looked at Yang Guang. ¡°Since Mr. Xiang wants to have a fight with me, let¡¯s do it then.¡± Although Yang Guang understood what He Yu meant, he suddenly had the killer instinct when he realized that Xiang Nan was probably a strong opponent. Xiang Nan nodded. ¡°Okay. Let¡¯s go upstairs. The rooftop is the most suitable place for a fight.¡± ¡°Okay. I have no objections.¡± Yang Guang looked indifferent and nodded. ¡°Guang!¡± Qi Yingxue looked at Yang Guang worriedly. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Sister Xue. It¡¯s just a competition. Mr. Xiang will not kill me.¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Of course. It¡¯s just a competition.¡± Xiang Nan nodded and said, ¡°Follow me.¡± After saying that, he turned around and left. Yang Guang followed behind. The women present looked at each other. Then, He Yu and Mu Xiaowan went to catch up with Yang Guang and Xiang Nan. Qi Yingxue turned around and looked at Li Hehua. ¡°Sister He Hua, shall we go and take a look?¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Li Hehua felt both worried and guilty. She thought that it was all her fault. There was a closer bond of affection between Yang Guang and Li Hehua than between Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue. At that time, Li Hehua left Qingshan Village the day after she had sex with Yang Guang. And it wasn¡¯t until Li Hehua arrived at the county that she realized she couldn¡¯t forget Yang Guang. However, considering that she had been married before and that she fell out with Fu Zhonghua, Li Hehua knew that nothing could happen between her and Yang Guang. Also, she thought she didn¡¯t deserve Yang Guang. Therefore, she chose to stay away from Qingshan Village and no longer speak to him. Nevertheless, Li Hehua now found that Yang Guang changed and he drew her attention again. Everybody went upstairs and reached the rooftop. The wind was blowing and the street lights shone brightly, so there was no need to turn on the lights on the rooftop. Everybody could see things very clearly. Xiang Nan stood up with his hands behind his back. He looked at Yang Guang and said, ¡°How about we start fighting?¡± ¡°Okay. I don¡¯t have any objections.¡± Yang Guang nodded and asked, ¡°Do you want to go first or should I go first?¡± ¡°You¡¯re younger than me. You go first,¡± Xiang Nan said indifferently. ¡°Okay. Let¡¯s do it. I am going to hit your left shoulder,¡± Yang Guang said. Mu Xiaowan knew a little about martial arts. When she heard this, she was stunned. Then, she looked at Yang Guang and thought he was crazy. In a competition like this, the most important thing was the element of surprise. However, Yang Guang said out loud where he was going to hit. Could it be that he was using diversionary tactics? Xiang Nan was also stunned when he heard this. He thought the same as Mu Xiaowan did about that. Nevertheless, Yang Guang moved in front of Xiang Nan in an instant and tried to hit Xiang Nan¡¯s left shoulder. ¡°Good timing!¡± Xiang Nan said. Yang Guang was faster than Xiang Nan expected. Xiang Nan immediately leaned back. Yang Guang didn¡¯t hit Xiang Nan¡¯s left shoulder. Then, Yang Guang tried to kick Xiang Nan¡¯s waist. Xiang Nan leaned away from Yang Guang and flipped. In an instant, Xiang Nan was six feet away from Yang Guang. It was a good tactic. Yang Guang failed to hit Xiang Nan. Then, Yang Guang stood still, looked at Xiang Nan, and said, ¡°I didn¡¯t expect Mr. Xiang to be a martial arts expert.¡± ¡°I just learned a little bit of martial arts,¡± Xiang Nan said. Knowing that he was being modest, Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°Now it¡¯s your turn to attack me.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Xiang Nan nodded, bent his legs, and positioned himself in a combat stance. Yang Guang could tell from Xiang Nan¡¯s combat stance that he was a martial arts expert. Yang Guang¡¯s heart sank like a stone. Although his physical fitness was better than ordinary people, he knew nothing about fighting skills. How could he possibly win an expert like Xiang Nan? Chapter 163 - Whats Your Relationship With Him? Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Be careful, I¡¯m going to hit you in the chest with this move!¡± Xiang Nan said as he rushed forward, his palms full of energy while he continuously changed his moves to attack! Yang Guang said in his heart, ¡°Oh great, if we¡¯re comparing moves, I definitely won¡¯t be able to beat him!¡± Just then, a thought flashed through his mind. He thought to himself, ¡°Isn¡¯t there a saying that goes ¡®random punches kill the old Master¡¯? You have your moves, I have my speed and strength!¡± Thinking of this, he shouted, ¡°Then I won¡¯t stand on ceremony!¡± After saying that, he raised his fists and threw them at Xiang Nan in an unorganized manner! Yang Guang¡¯s punches were very strong and the wind whistled as his fists traveled through the air, making Xiang Nan¡¯s pupils constrict! Xiang Nan did have many moves that could counter such an unorganized fist technique, but the opponent¡¯s power was too strong, making it so that even if he countered the attack, he would still be injured! Hence, Xiang Nan abruptly took a step back, entering defense and dodging. Seeing this, Yang Guang thought to himself, ¡°The rooftop is only so big. I don¡¯t believe that you can remain to be in the defense, chased and attacked for long!¡± Thinking of this, Yang Guang¡¯s fists became fiercer, and the speed of his movements also became faster! ¡°This kid, he¡¯s getting excited!¡± Xiang Nan was helpless. He did not want to be too embarrassed, so with an unexpected turn, he dodged Yang Guang¡¯s fist. Then, he threw a punch at Yang Guang¡¯s chest! At the same time, Yang Guang¡¯s fist also landed on his chest! ¡°Bang!¡± Muffled sounds rang out at the same time. Both had been punched by the other party! Xiang Nan took two steps back while Yang Guang took one step back! The winner had been decided. However, Yang Guang was aware that he had relied on random attacks to win. In real life-and-death battles, the other party had plenty of ways to kill him in a single attack! After all, he had exposed too many flaws just now! ¡°Very good. You¡¯re a very good young man!¡± Xiang Nan nodded and continued, ¡°Let¡¯s end the fight here. There¡¯s no need to continue!¡± ¡°Alright!¡± Yang Guang nodded and said sincerely, ¡°Mr. Xiang¡¯s martial arts attainments are much better than mine. Thank you very much for the fight earlier!¡± ¡°You have the advantage in strength and speed, but your moves are truly not very good!¡± Xiang Nan¡¯s words left some leeway. He did not directly expose the fact that Yang Guang did not know any moves. After saying that, he added, ¡°I have something to do later, so I won¡¯t be disturbing you guys for now. How about leaving a contact number?¡± ¡°Sure,¡± Yang Guang immediately nodded, thinking that this person knew kung fu. If he could learn some moves from him, it would definitely be useful in the future. Hence, the two of them exchanged phone numbers, then everyone went downstairs. Yang Guang and the rest returned to the private room while Xiang Nan went to his office. After closing the door, he immediately revealed a pained expression! After unbuttoning his shirt, he saw that the skin on his chest was bruised. He could not help but laugh as he scolded, ¡°This brat is really ruthless. Why is he so strong?¡± This was only a superficial wound and did not hurt his internal organs. While Xiang Nan was speechless, he was also filled with curiosity towards Yang Guang. The reason why he left his contact information was because he wanted to know more about this brat and see what was the deal with him. After Yang Guang and the rest sat down upon returning to the private room, He Yu immediately asked, ¡°Yang Guang, since you have found Sister He Hua, what are you planning to do next?¡± ¡°Bring her back to the village, of course!¡± Yang Guang said. When Li Hehua heard this, she raised her head in shock, ¡°Back to the village?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. You don¡¯t have many acquaintances in the provincial capital. I don¡¯t want you to be bullied again!¡± Yang Guang said, then continued, ¡°Besides, you don¡¯t know this, but I¡¯ve already built four greenhouses and am preparing to develop the village into a scenic spot. The Qingshan Village will soon become rich!¡± Li Hehua was a little surprised, but after thinking for a while, she still lowered her head as she said, ¡°But I¡¯m not from your village!¡± ¡°Sister, don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ll definitely find Fu Zhonghua and make him agree to get a divorce with you. Then, you can help me. The scenic spot needs people!¡±Yang Guang said. When he said that, Li Hehua was quite tempted! But when she thought of her relationship with Yang Guang, she felt herself in a difficult position. After returning to Qingshan Village, she could see him every day. How could she control her feelings? Even if she could control it, could he? It was impossible! Just when Li Hehua was feeling troubled, He Yu spoke up, ¡°Then go back. Sister He Hua, you¡¯re too soft and gentle. You are not suitable for this kind of service work since you¡¯ll be easily bullied!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. It¡¯s better to go back. Yang Guang is right. Qingshan Village will soon undergo great changes. Your days in the future won¡¯t be worse than your life in the city now. You¡¯ll also earn no less than what you¡¯re getting now!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. After hearing their words, Li Hehua was in a dilemma. For a moment, she didn¡¯t know what to say. At this moment, He Yu said, ¡°It¡¯s settled then. Sister He Hua will return to the hotel with Yang Guang and the others tonight. Tomorrow, she¡¯ll come back to finish the procedures for leaving her job and get her things. Then, we¡¯ll go back to Qingshan Village in the afternoon!¡± Yang Guang was stunned when he heard that. ¡°What? You¡¯re coming with us tomorrow?¡± ¡°I can¡¯t wait any longer. I want to see the Stalactite Cave and the Underground Lake as soon as possible!¡± He Yu said. ¡°Alright then. It¡¯s convenient for me to hitch a ride with you and go home directly anyway!¡± Yang Guang laughed. Li Hehua bit her lip and suddenly realized that there was no use in saying anything. Everyone had already made the decision for her! After He Yu called for the waiter to pay the bill, she was dragged downstairs by Qi Yingxue and Mu Xiaowan. in the end, He Hua could only compromise and stop thinking about what would happen when she returned to the village. After crossing the road to the hotel, Qi Yingxue went to the front desk and upgraded the room into a suite. With this, all three of them could be in the same room. When they were going upstairs, Yang Guang had wanted to chat with Sister He Hua and ask her about what happened after she left the village. However, when he thought about it, he felt that doing so would be inappropriate, and thus he did not go to the suite with them. For him to be so well-behaved all of a sudden was a little unexpected for Qi Yingxue and Mu Xiaowan. The two of them looked at each other but did not say anything. After returning to his room, Yang Guang lay on the bed and rested his head on his arm, feeling emotional. Although he had thought of looking for Sister He Hua when he first came to the provincial capital, the place was huge and filled with people. How could he find her so easily? He did not expect to be so lucky to meet her in the end! Thinking that he could bring her back to the village, the huge rock that had been suppressing Yang Guang¡¯s heart could finally be put down. After an unknown amount of time, someone knocked on the door. Yang Guang was stunned. Could it be that Sister He Hua had come to look for him? Therefore, he hurriedly jumped off the bed and rushed to the door! When he opened the door, he saw that it was Qi Yingxue instead. Yang Guang was stunned for a moment before he quickly smiled and said, ¡°Sister, why are you here?¡± ¡°I have something to ask you!¡± Qi Yingxue said and walked into the room. She sat down at the head of the bed and looked at Yang Guang with a serious expression. ¡°Tell me, what is your relationship with Sister He Hua?¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Yang Guang was a little confused by her question. Seeing that she was serious, he couldn¡¯t joke around, so he hesitated for a moment before saying, ¡°She is my first woman..¡± Chapter 164 - Dont Be Like This Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Hearing Yang Guang¡¯s words, Qi Yingxue was stunned! She didn¡¯t say anything and looked at Yang Guang in a daze. Being stared at until his hair stood on end, Yang Guang asked, ¡°Sis, are you angry?¡± ¡°No,¡± Qi Yingxue shook her head. ¡°No wonder you were so angry. And no wonder you said that she¡¯s the person closest to you!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Yang Guang was silent, at a loss for words. Qi Yingxue continued, ¡°I can see that you really care about her!¡± ¡°You don¡¯t know. Sister He Hua¡¯s life has been pretty tough too to have met such a man,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°I understand!¡± Qi Yingxue nodded and looked into his eyes. ¡°But with the current situation, what are your thoughts? Are you planning to continue your relationship with Sister He Hua after returning to the village?¡± ¡°This¡­¡± Yang Guang was stunned for a moment, ¡°I didn¡¯t think about it. I just don¡¯t want her to be alone outside. It¡¯s too worrisome.¡± ¡°If she took the initiative to look for you, what would you do?¡± Qi Yingxue asked again. ¡°¡­¡± Yang Guang was speechless. After a moment of silence, he raised his head to say, ¡°I don¡¯t know.¡± This time, it was Qi Yingxue¡¯s turn to be speechless. She sighed and said, ¡°With your luck in love affairs, I¡¯m not sure whether all the women in your life are calamities or fate!¡± Yang Guang was taken aback. ¡°Sis, are you jealous?¡± ¡°Screw you. I¡¯m your sister. Why would I be jealous?¡± Qi Yingxue glared at him and then stood up. ¡°I¡¯m just here to remind you that you know how Xiaowan feels about you. Think about how you¡¯re going to handle this matter when you go back. I can¡¯t be bothered with your matters!¡± After saying that, she turned around and left. Yang Guang stood dazed for a while before he smiled bitterly and said, ¡°Saying that you can¡¯t be bothered with it, yet you went out of your way to come and remind me. You really don¡¯t mean what you say!¡± The night passed quickly. The next morning, Yang Guang woke up and went to the suite after washing up. Mu Xiaowan opened the door for him and asked, ¡°Why are you so early?¡± Seeing that she was still wearing a camisole and shorts, Yang Guang said, ¡°To help Sister He Hua with the resignation procedures!¡± Mu Xiaowan said as she walked into the room, ¡°Have you forgotten what He Yu said? You just have to finish it before noon. Besides, the restaurant is only open at noon, how can there be anyone so early in the morning?¡± ¡°Oh, I am indeed a little too early!¡± Yang Guang nodded while arriving in the suite¡¯s living room. Then, he saw Li Hehua. She had just woken up and was also wearing a camisole and shorts, probably Qi Yingxue or Mu Xiaowan¡¯s. Yang Guang¡¯s heart trembled when he saw her snow-white and slender thighs! He Hua was also flustered when she saw him. She quickly walked back to the bedroom. ¡°I ordered breakfast. Let¡¯s eat together later,¡± Qi Yingxue said this and also went back to her bedroom. With this, only Yang Guang and Mu Xiaowan were left in the living room. Their eyes met. For a moment, he was at a loss for words! Then, an idea flashed through his mind and Yang Guang hurriedly asked, ¡°Oh right, sis, when is your classmate¡¯s wedding? Are you going to stay in the provincial capital for a few more days?¡± ¡°Tomorrow, I¡¯m going back tomorrow afternoon!¡± Mu Xiaowan said. ¡°Oh, okay,¡± Yang Guang sat down and didn¡¯t know what else to say. The living room suddenly became quiet. After a moment of silence, Mu Xiaowan looked at him and asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you today?¡± ¡°Hmm?¡± Yang Guang abruptly raised his head and asked in a daze, ¡°What do you mean ¡®what¡¯s wrong¡¯?¡± ¡°You seem a little strange. Why are you so dazed?¡± Mu Xiaowan asked. ¡°Uh, it¡¯s nothing!¡± Yang Guang quickly denied, then smiled and said, ¡°Maybe it¡¯s because I just woke up and have no energy!¡± After saying that, his gaze fell on her legs and he stared. Seeing this, Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes then said in a bad mood, ¡°Looks like I¡¯m overthinking it. You¡¯re still the same!¡± After saying that, she stood up and went into her bedroom. Yang Guang was puzzled. Why did all three of them go back to their bedrooms? He wasn¡¯t a monster! Only when the waiter brought breakfast over did Qi Yingxue and the others come out of their rooms. At this time, everyone had already changed into either pants or skirts. Yang Guang couldn¡¯t see their thighs even if he wanted to. He Hua returned to her calm state. She sat down and ate breakfast while asking curiously, ¡°Yang Guang, how did so many changes happen in the village in such a short time?¡± ¡°The changes are still not that big yet. Wait until the road is repaired and the scenic area is ready. By then, the Qingshan Village will become a tourist spot!¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. ¡°Oh, that¡¯s great,¡± He Hua nodded. After breakfast, Qi Yingxue said to Yang Guang, ¡°Xiaowan is going to attend the wedding. I¡¯ll send her there.¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need, right?¡± Mu Xiaowan was stunned. ¡°It¡¯s fine. There¡¯s no hurry to go to the restaurant. I¡¯ll send you downstairs!¡±Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Alright then,¡± Mu Xiaowan didn¡¯t think too much about it. She got up and said to He Hua, ¡°Sister He Hua, I¡¯ll leave first. I¡¯ll see you at Qingshan Village later!¡± ¡°Okay. Goodbye, Xiaowan,¡± He Hua hurriedly said. After sending the two out the door, she turned around and was about to return to the living room when a figure flashed in front of her and she found herself being hugged by Yang Guang! He Hua¡¯s face instantly turned red as she struggled while saying, ¡°Little Guang, don¡¯t be like this!¡± ¡°Sister, I missed you so much!¡± Yang Guang¡¯s words caused He Hua¡¯s body to instantly lose its strength and she immediately stopped struggling. Feeling his powerful arms, He Hua¡¯s heart felt a wave of warmth, but she still sighed and said, ¡°Don¡¯t be like this. It won¡¯t be good if Yingxue sees us!¡± ¡°Hmm?¡± Yang Guang was stunned for a moment. He looked at her flushed cheeks and asked, ¡°Why do you say that?¡± ¡°I can tell that all of them like you,¡± He Hua lowered her head and said, ¡°Besides, it¡¯s impossible for us to be together. Let¡¯s just be brother and sister in the future. We can¡¯t have that kind of relationship anymore¡­¡± When Yang Guang heard this, he couldn¡¯t force her. He could only say, ¡°Since you don¡¯t like me, I won¡¯t force you. As long as you can live well in the future, I¡¯ll be at ease!¡± After saying that, he released his hands and continued to look at He Hua. ¡°I will definitely let you live a good life!¡± ¡°I believe in you!¡± He Hua nodded. ¡°It hasn¡¯t been long, yet you¡¯ve already got to know so many capable people. Little Guang, you¡¯ll definitely be able to accomplish great things in the future!¡± ¡°Oh right, Don¡¯t call me Little Guang in the future. This name has already been taken. It will be very troublesome to call me that again!¡± Yang Guang smiled bitterly and explained that there was another Little Guang at home. After hearing this, He Hua was both stunned and amused. She could not help but say, ¡°I didn¡¯t expect Xiao Wan to be so interesting. She¡¯s obviously messing with you on purpose!¡± ¡°Yeah, that¡¯s just how her temper is!¡± Yang Guang smiled bitterly. The two of them chatted about the matters in the village. Qi Yingxue only returned after half an hour. Yang Guang knew that she had left on purpose to give him a chance to talk to Sister He Hua, so when she entered the door, he immediately shot her a grateful glance. Qi Yingxue did not say anything. She looked at the time. ¡°The restaurant staff are probably starting work.. Let¡¯s go over and take a look later!¡± Chapter 165 - Is Fighting Addictive? Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Li Hehua¡¯s resignation was processed very quickly. Perhaps it was because Xiang Nan had given instructions to the staff in advance, Yang Guang did not ask questions. After completing the procedures, Li Hehua received a salary of almost three thousand yuan. She could not bear to part with her clothes and things in the dormitory, so she went back to pack up. When the people who worked with her learned that she was going home, they were a little reluctant to part with her. However, those who knew what happened last night had no such thoughts. Yang Guang had broken a shareholder¡¯s leg, yet he was still fine. Those who knew about this matter looked at him in a different light. After packing up her things into a suitcase, Yang Guang carried it and left the dormitory with Li Hehua. On the road outside, He Yu¡¯s car was already waiting for them. After the three of them got into the car, He Yu smiled and said to Yang Guang, ¡°I¡¯ll go with you first. After going to the village to see what it¡¯s like, you¡¯ll have to come back with me!¡± ¡°Why?¡± Yang Guang was puzzled and asked in surprise. ¡°My grandfather learned about yesterday¡¯s matter and wants to meet you!¡± He Yu said. ¡°Uh, then can¡¯t we leave later and go meet him first?¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°No, I¡¯m in a hurry to see the stalactites. I want to go to your house first!¡±He Yu said. Yang Guang: ¡°¡­¡± Seeing her firm attitude, Yang Guang could only sigh helplessly and say, ¡°Alright, since you don¡¯t find it troublesome, just do as you please!¡± Soon, the car left the provincial capital and entered the highway. The entire journey was quiet. After arriving at the county, Qi Yingxue got off at the entrance of her restaurant. Following that, Yang Guang and the others returned to Qingshan Village. The closer they were to the village, the more nervous Li Hehua became. Her hands trembled slightly as she clasped them together. Noticing this scene, He Yu glared at Yang Guang and gave him a look which obviously meant ¡°Why are you not consoling her yet?¡± Only then did Yang Guang realize He Hua¡¯s nervousness. He moved to sit next to her and asked, ¡°Sister, why are you nervous?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know. I just feel weird,¡± said Li Hehua. ¡°Don¡¯t be afraid. When we get to the village, if anyone dares to say anything about you, I will not tolerate them!¡± said Yang Guang. Hearing this, Li Hehua¡¯s heart relaxed and she let out a long breath. When the car arrived at the door of their house, Xiao Guang was the first to welcome them with a face full of joy. Wu Xiaolian also came out with Yaya in her arms. When she saw Li Hehua coming down from the car, she immediately exclaimed, ¡°Ah, Sister-in-law He Hua, why are you back together with Yang Guang?¡± ¡°It¡¯s a long story. Sister-in-law, from now on, just call her Sister He Hua. Don¡¯t call her sister-in-law!¡± Yang Guang said this and took the suitcase from Li Hehua¡¯s hands while saying, ¡°Sister, you can stay with me from now on!¡± ¡°No, that can¡¯t do!¡± Li Hehua immediately shook her head and continued, ¡°I can¡¯t go back to my house. I¡¯ve made up my mind on the way. I¡¯ll stay at Mrs. Niu¡¯s for the time being!¡± ¡°Why?¡± Yang Guang asked in confusion. ¡°No reason,¡± Li Hehua blushed and lowered her head. He Yu watched from the side and didn¡¯t say anything, but the smile on her face was a little strange. In the end, neither Yang Guang nor Wu Xiaolian could change Li Hehua¡¯s mind. She still decided to live in Mrs. Niu¡¯s house first. Helpless, Yang Guang could only call Mrs. Niu, who was working at the greenhouse, to come back. Seeing that Li Hehua had returned, Mrs. Niu was quite happy. But when she heard that Li Hehua wanted to stay at her house, Mrs. Niu¡¯s expression immediately changed! Yang Guang immediately understood something, so he asked, ¡°Auntie, you¡¯re the only one at home. It won¡¯t be inconvenient for Sister Hehua to go, right?¡± ¡°Of, of course!¡± Mrs. Niu glared at him, then said to Li Hehua, ¡°Okay, you can stay at my house first. We won¡¯t stay at Fu Zhonghua¡¯s house!¡± ¡°The matter of that house will be settled sooner or later. I¡¯ll go find that guy later and ask him to give Sister Hehua an explanation!¡± Yang Guang said. Mrs. Niu looked at him and said, ¡°Well you can go now. Fu Zhonghua is at home. He just came back this morning!¡± ¡°Really?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s eyes widened when he heard that. He immediately wanted to go out to look for Fu Zhonghua, but was stopped by He Yu! Then she glared at him. ¡°You, are you addicted to fighting?¡± ¡°You don¡¯t know how detestable that fellow is. I just want to settle the score with him!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°On what standing and reasons do you have to go settle the score?¡± He Yu asked. This question stopped Yang Guang in his tracks. He was stunned for a moment before he said, ¡°I don¡¯t care so much. I just want to beat him up!¡± ¡°Stupid!¡± He Yu said then continued, ¡°If it was me who wanted to get revenge on someone, I can make that person pay without getting my hands dirty. This is what a smart person should do!¡± ¡°Then how do you think I should take care of him?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°There¡¯s no rush. Take me into the mountain to see the stalactites first. I¡¯ll tell you when we come back!¡± He Yu said. At this time, Li Hehua also advised Yang Guang, ¡°I don¡¯t have any grudges with him. I can just divorce him later. Don¡¯t bother about it.¡± ¡°Then we¡¯ll talk about it later!¡± Yang Guang didn¡¯t comment. After saying that, he looked at He Yu and said, ¡°Alright. Since nothing can stop you from seeing the stalactites, I¡¯ll take you there now!¡± With this, Wu Xiaolian accompanied He Hua to Mrs. Niu¡¯s house to settle down while Yang Guang led He Yu into the mountains. On the way into the mountains, He Yu said to Yang Guang, ¡°Your Sister He Hua has indeed been wronged, but beating up that guy is meaningless. If you want to resolve this matter, you must have a reason and use some means to help He Hua!¡± Yang Guang nodded, ¡°Do continue.¡± ¡°Doesn¡¯t he already have a lover outside? Go find some evidence and take some pictures to prove that the guy cheated on He Hua first. This way, Sister He Hua can easily file for a divorce. She can also fight for the custody of the child and the house in the village!¡± He Yu said. ¡°But I don¡¯t know where that fellow lives and who he hangs out with!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°If you don¡¯t know, can¡¯t you investigate?!¡± He Yu glared at him. ¡°The county is only so big. Do you need me to teach you how to investigate?¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes. ¡°You¡¯re right. I¡¯ll think of a way myself!¡± As they chatted, they entered the mountain and went all the way to the Stalactite Cave. When she heard that Yang Guang had named this place the Greater World, he yu nodded. ¡°This name is alright. The stones here are really interesting, being in all forms and shapes!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. I believe that once the promotional photos are released, it will immediately attract the interest of many people!¡± Yang Guang said and then asked, ¡°Are you going to stay here tonight?¡± ¡°I¡¯m thinking about it, why?¡± He Yu looked at him. ¡°It¡¯s nothing. If you¡¯re staying overnight, I¡¯ll get you some fresh fish to try. There¡¯s some in the freezer at home too, but they were caught previously!¡± Yang Guang said this and quickly walked towards the Underground Lake. He Yu followed him. Seeing that a big fish had jumped out of the water and slid down the slope to his feet after he had just shouted a few times, she was dumbfounded. She said in surprise, ¡°Wow, this method of fishing is really new!¡± ¡°Unfortunately, there¡¯s no way to know how big the lake is and how deep the water is. We¡¯ll have to find a professional to take a look later,¡± Yang Guang said. He Yu immediately said, ¡°I know someone.. Leave this to me!¡± Chapter 166 - I Was Wrong Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After He Yu said that, she asked Yang Guang, ¡°Are there any dangerous creatures here?¡± ¡°I was also worried about that, which was why I didn¡¯t dare let anyone go into the water!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Oh, then let¡¯s think of another way!¡± He Yu nodded, then smiled and said, ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. Even if nobody goes in, there are still ways to explore. Let¡¯s find out how many fish are inside first!¡± ¡°There should be quite a lot!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°When the mountain flood happened, some fish were washed away. When the villagers found them, only their bones were left. I wonder what creature ate them though!¡± ¡°Then the fish must be very delicious, right?¡± He Yu asked. ¡°It¡¯s not just delicious. You¡¯ll know at night!¡± Yang Guang smiled and knocked out the 20-kilogram fish, then threw it into his basket. After seeing the stalactites, He Yu was satisfied. Then, the two returned to Qingshan Village. When they returned home, they saw that Wu Xiaolian and Xu Ling were both there, as well as Li Hehua. However, their expressions did not look very good. Yang Guang asked in puzzlement, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°Fu Zhonghua learned that Sister He Hua was back, so he went to Mrs. Niu¡¯s house to make trouble. Fortunately, Lingling and I were both there. Otherwise, that fellow had wanted to beat Sister He Hua again!¡± Wu Xiaolian said. ¡°Good lord, that fellow has got to be beaten up!¡± Yang Guang put down his basket and turned to leave! However, Xu Ling stopped him. ¡°Don¡¯t go. If you go find Fu Zhonghua now, you¡¯ll make things worse!¡± ¡°Why?¡± Yang Guang turned around and asked. Xu Ling looked at him. ¡°There are some rumors in the village about you. If you stand up for Sister He Hua now, what would they say about her?¡± ¡°This¡­¡± Yang Guang hesitated. He turned angry, ¡°But we can¡¯t let that fellow go just like that!¡± ¡°You weren¡¯t here just now. It¡¯s not a good idea to go to his house to find him now, but Fu Zhonghua will definitely not give up. When he comes to look for Sister He Hua later, you¡¯ll have a chance!¡± He Yu said. ¡°What¡¯s the difference?¡± Yang Guang asked in surprise. He Yu smiled. ¡°The difference is huge. If Fu Zhonghua is stupid enough to come at you when he sees you at the scene, you can deal with him however you want!¡± ¡°I understand!¡± Yang Guang smiled, ¡°You¡¯re smart!¡± ¡°Of course!¡± He Yu raised her chin proudly. ¡°Alright, let¡¯s stop talking about Sister He Hua¡¯s matters now. Didn¡¯t you want to cook fish for me?¡±He Yu asked. ¡°I won¡¯t forget it. I¡¯ll do it now!¡± Yang Guang smiled. Seeing that Sister He Hua¡¯s expression was not too uncomfortable, he put Fu Zhonghua¡¯s matter aside for the time being and did not think about it anymore. Wu Xiaolian killed the fish, scaled it, and cut it into small pieces. Soon, a big pot of fish soup was stewed. He Yu had been thinking about developing the scenic area. She kept talking on the phone, discussing the matters of real estate. Yang Guang and Li Hehua sat together and chatted for a while. He learned that after her return, other than Fu Zhonghua coming to Mrs. Niu¡¯s house and making a scene, the other villagers¡¯ reactions were quite normal, and no one said anything. When the fish soup was ready and served to the table, Yang Guang said to Li Hehua and He Yu, ¡°You haven¡¯t tasted it yet. After drinking this delicious fish soup, you won¡¯t want to leave Qingshan Village anymore!¡± ¡°I don¡¯t believe it. I¡¯ve eaten a lot of fish!¡± He Yu pouted and scooped a spoonful of fish soup. The minute she drank the fish soup, her eyes immediately widened. Yang Guang chuckled. ¡°What do you want to say now?¡± ¡°I was wrong,¡± He Yu was frank and immediately admitted her mistake. Then, she said with surprise, ¡°Oh my god, this fish soup is too delicious!¡± ¡°Not only is it delicious, but it can also beautify your appearance. Hurry up and eat it!¡± Yang Guang said this and turned to Li Hehua, ¡°Sister, you drink it too!¡± ¡°Okay,¡± Li Hehua smiled and scooped a spoonful of soup. She blew on it before drinking it and her eyes immediately lit up! Seeing her and He Yu¡¯s surprised expressions, Xu Ling smiled and said, ¡°Regardless of all else, just this fish alone will definitely attract countless foodies!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right, it¡¯s really delicious!¡± He Yu drank the soup while eating the fish, completely putting her image as a young miss behind her. Then, she thought of something and turned to Wu Xiaolian, ¡°Sister-in-law, after I start building houses here, I¡¯ll definitely build a fish soup shop for you!¡± ¡°Huh? There¡¯s no need, right? Anyone can make fish soup. It¡¯s not some secret recipe,¡± Wu Xiaolian said. ¡°But only you have fish!¡± He Yu said and turned to look at Yang Guang. ¡°Is that cave under your territory?¡± ¡°It¡¯s a little off, but the entrance is just within the range!¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Then that¡¯s fine. Other people can also make fish soup, but they don¡¯t have such fish!¡± He Yu said and then looked at Wu Xiaolian. ¡°Sister-in-law, you can just wait to make a fortune when the scenic area opens!¡± ¡°Will it really work?¡± Wu Xiaolian¡¯s heart was pounding. She felt like she was dreaming. She never thought that she would be a boss one day. Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°Of course it will work. When the time comes, sister-in-law, you will be the lady boss, and Sister He Hua will be the accountant. This matter is settled!¡± ¡°But, but I don¡¯t know how to do accounts!¡± Li He Hua said. ¡°If you don¡¯t know how to do it, you can learn!¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Besides, you don¡¯t have to be so careful in the family business. You do know how to count money, right?¡± Li Hehua blushed and said, ¡°I mean, yes¡­¡± ¡°That¡¯s enough then!¡± Yang Guang smiled. Li Hehua pursed her lips and didn¡¯t say anything. After washing up after dinner, she didn¡¯t stay at Yang Guang¡¯s house any longer and went to Mrs. Niu¡¯s house. It was the first time He Yu stayed over at Yang Guang¡¯s. Fortunately, she did not have the attitude of those rich young misses. She was just like the girl next door. There were enough beds, so Yang Guang did not have to go stay in the small room at the greenhouse. As such, he returned to his room when it was late. He took out the spiritual stone he hadn¡¯t finished using, sat cross-legged, and absorbed the spiritual energy inside. The night passed just like that. Early in the morning, the village was bustling with activity. It was completely different from the usual days. Qingshan Village was usually quiet at this time of the day, but it was different now. There were those who went to work in the greenhouse, those who went to work on the construction site, and those who went to work on the road. The people chattered with their companions as they started their busy day. Li Hehua did not stay idle either. She woke up early in the morning and went to the vegetable greenhouse with Mrs. Niu. According to Mrs. Niu, there was no need for her to help at all because Yang Guang had said that only four people were needed. He Hua would not get paid even if she went. However, Li He Hua¡¯s thoughts were that since she was staying in Mrs. Niu¡¯s home, she wasn¡¯t going to help to earn money, but to help her work and return the favor. The women came to the greenhouse and soon began their day¡¯s work. At this time, Li Hehua was carrying a basket filled with unneeded vegetables to pour into the ditch behind the greenhouse. Just as she turned around, a person suddenly rushed out from the cornfield beside the place and covered her mouth! Then, that person dragged her into the cornfield! Chapter 167 - Youre Courting Death Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Li Hehua was caught off guard and did not have time to react. By the time she came to her senses, she had already been dragged into the depths of the cornfield. Behind her was a man¡¯s thick and strong body. She could hear his rapid breathing, but she could not tell who it was! Li Hehua was a little frightened. She was dazed for a while before she thought of struggling. However, the man was very strong, and she could not struggle free at all! Soon, she was pushed to the ground by the man! Yang Guang came to the greenhouse. Seeing that everyone was working consciously, he was quite pleased. He greeted Mrs. Niu, ¡°Auntie, you¡¯re here early!¡± ¡°It¡¯s cool in the morning and nicer to work!¡± Mrs. Niu looked at him and then asked, ¡°Have you seen He Hua? She¡¯s here to help too!¡± She said this with the intention to let Yang Guang know that He Hua had come to help even if he hadn¡¯t seen her. She had to tell him about this matter and let him know about it. As for whether he would pay He Hua or not, that would depend on whether Yang Guang was smart enough in human interaction. Yang Guang was stunned and then asked, ¡°Is that so? which greenhouse is she in? I didn¡¯t see her when I came!¡± ¡°She just went out to pour the vegetables,¡± Mrs. Niu said and then looked at Yang Guang, ¡°She came to help on her own accord!¡± ¡°Oh, I¡¯ve already prepared other tasks for her. Why can¡¯t she stay idle though?¡± Yang Guang said and turned to leave. He knew the place where the vegetables were poured. When he reached the back of the last greenhouse, he saw that there was only a wicker basket on the ground, but he did not see He Hua. Yang Guang was puzzled for a moment. At this moment, Little Guang, who had been tripping while following him, suddenly pricked up its ears and let out a low growl at the cornfield! Following that, it rushed into the cornfield with a ¡°whoosh¡±! Yang Guang was still in a daze when he heard a man¡¯s cry from the cornfield! His heart sank, and he immediately rushed into the cornfield as well! A man¡¯s screams could be heard. After rushing in that direction, Yang Guang saw a scene that made him so angry his eyes almost popped out of their sockets! Li Hehua was lying on the ground with her eyes tightly shut. Her clothes were in a mess, and her pants had been taken off! However, her underwear was still there. Obviously, the man had not succeeded yet. Turning his head to look at the man who had been bitten by Little Guang, Yang Guang was instantly enraged. ¡°Fu Zhonghua, you¡¯re really courting death!¡± That man was none other than Fu Zhonghua! At that moment, he was being bitten by Little Guang to the point he was screaming continuously. There were already seven or eight wounds on his body. The pain was so great that he rolled on the ground and crushed a large patch of corn stalks. Yang Guang did not bother to deal with him. He strode to He Hua¡¯s side and reached out to help her up. Fortunately, she was only unconscious. Yang Guang picked He Hua up and immediately activated the energy in his body. In the blink of an eye, He Hua let out a long breath and slowly opened her eyes. Upon coming to, she shivered. However, when she saw that it was Yang Guang who was holding her, her body immediately went soft. ¡°Sister, don¡¯t be afraid, It¡¯s okay!¡± Yang Guang comforted her softly, his eyes filled with heartache. Li Hehua¡¯s face was pale, and there were tears at the corners of her eyes. When she heard this, she couldn¡¯t help but start sobbing. As he hugged her, Yang Guang turned around and glanced at Fu Zhonghua, then shouted, ¡°Little Guang, stop biting him. Go call Mrs. Niu!¡± The little fellow was indeed very humane. After hearing Yang Guang¡¯s words, it turned around and ran towards the greenhouse. Fu Zhonghua only had a pair of underpants on him. Being bitten by Little Guang, his body was now covered in cuts and bruises. Enduring the pain, he sat up and looked at Yang Guang, ¡°Yang Guang, you¡¯re in trouble. Your dog bit me so badly. You have to give me compensation!¡± ¡°To think that you would think of something like this. Compensation?¡± Yang Guang sneered, ¡°Little Guang bit you a few times just to punish you. You just wait!¡± Seeing that his eyes were red, Fu Zhonghua said in surprise, ¡°What are you going to do?¡± ¡°I¡¯m going to kill you!¡±Yang Guang said. ¡°Yang Guang, how dare you? He Hua is my wife. She ran away for so long and didn¡¯t even come home to me when she returned. What¡¯s wrong with me making out with her?¡± Fu Zhonghua widened his eyes and asked as if he was in the right. Yang Guang looked at him. ¡°Sister He Hua is going to divorce you. You two are no longer husband and wife. Besides, is this your f*cking way of making out with her?¡± He was simply furious. Such a shameless man was just rare in the world! ¡°The divorce procedures haven¡¯t been completed yet so she is still my woman. I can do whatever I want!¡± Fu Zhonghua said. Seeing He Hua in Yang Guang¡¯s arms, he grew even more jealous. He shouted, ¡°Yang Guang, you b*stard couple. You finally admit that you two are having an affair, right?¡± ¡°F*ck you!¡± If it weren¡¯t for the fact that he could feel Li He Hua slightly trembling and was worried that she wouldn¡¯t be able to sit alone, Yang Guang would have immediately gone and beat Fu Zhonghua up. At this moment, Little Guang had already called for Mrs. Niu and the others to come. When the few women came to the cornfield and saw the scene in front of them, they were all somewhat scared out of their wits! ¡°Auntie, help me look after Sister He Hua.¡± Seeing that the women had come, Yang Guang helped Li He Hua stand up and sent her into Mrs. Niu¡¯s arms. After that, he turned around and walked towards Fu Zhonghua! ¡°You, what are you doing!¡± Fu Zhonghua retreated, his eyes filled with fear. ¡°I¡¯m warning you, killing is against the law!¡± ¡°I won¡¯t kill you, but I won¡¯t let you have it easy either!¡± Yang Guang said and kicked him! ¡°Crack!¡± The crisp sound of bones breaking could be heard. Fu Zhonghua could only watch as his calf turned into an L shape! ¡°Ah!¡± After a few seconds of silence, he let out a blood-curdling scream! Yang Guang was not done yet. He went forward and grabbed Fu Zhonghua¡¯s collar, giving him dozens of heavy slaps on the face! The sounds of slaps rang out in the cornfield. Mrs. Niu and the other women were all in a daze as they watched on fearfully. After Fu Zhonghua¡¯s face was all swollen from the beating and had fainted, Yang Guang carried him with one hand and turned around to say to the crowd, ¡°Let¡¯s leave the cornfield first!¡± ¡°Oh, okay, okay,¡± Mrs. Niu hurriedly nodded and helped He Hua tidy up her clothes. Then, the few women supported her as they left the cornfield together. Upon reaching the open space outside the greenhouse, Yang Guang threw Fu Zhonghua, who was half dead, onto the ground. Then, he took out his phone and dialed Hu Jian¡¯s number. Li He Hua had already recovered from the fright under the women¡¯s pacifications. When she looked at Fu Zhonghua on the ground, her eyes were filled with hatred! Fortunately, Little Guang had arrived in time. If it had been a minute later, she would have been humiliated by this guy! Their love as husband and wife had been long lost, and she had almost been humiliated by him when he had choked her unconscious just now. At this moment, Li Hehua just hated the man in front of her to death. Hu Jian drove the police car to the village, which alarmed Xu Ling and the others. Everyone came to the greenhouse together. When they saw the situation at the scene, everyone was stunned! Then, after asking about what had happened, Hu Jian looked at Yang Guang and asked, ¡°Did you beat him up?¡± ¡°Yes, is this considered a righteous act?¡± Yang Guang returned the question. ¡°¡­¡± Hu Jian was silent for a moment, then he sighed and said, ¡°Haven¡¯t you hit him too hard?¡± ¡°This is still considered hard?¡± He Yu looked at him and said, ¡°Officer, you do know what crime the criminal suspect is suspected of, right?¡± Chapter 168 - Admitted Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Hu Jian was stunned by the question. He sized up He Yu and asked, ¡°What crime is he suspected of?¡± ¡°First, he is suspected of rape! Second, he is suspected of intentional homicide!¡± He Yu said. ¡°It¡¯s that serious?¡± Hu Jian was taken aback. Although he had heard some information about the case when he received the police report, he did not expect it to be more complicated than he thought. Yang Guang nodded. ¡°When I arrived at the scene just now, Sister He Hua had already passed out. There are scratches on her neck too!¡± He Yu pulled Li Hehua¡¯s hand and said, ¡°There¡¯s still flesh under her fingernails. It must be Fu Zhonghua¡¯s. I think you can take it down as evidence, officer!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Hu Jian took a look and was at a loss for words. Xu Ling frowned and looked at him seriously, ¡°Officer Hu, what are you doing? It can¡¯t be that you know this person and want to cover up for him, right?¡± ¡°Of course not!¡± Upon hearing this, Hu Jian quickly shook his head and said, ¡°Hongqi Town has always been safe and sound. I just didn¡¯t think such a vicious case would happen!¡± ¡°The evidence is all here. It¡¯s useless even if you don¡¯t believe it!¡± Xu Ling said, took out her phone, and continued, ¡°How about this? I¡¯ll contact my friends at the County Bureau and see what they have to say!¡± ¡°No need. It¡¯s more appropriate for me to report this matter!¡± Hu Jian quickly stopped her and said to Yang Guang, ¡°I¡¯ll take this person away first.¡± After saying that, he looked at Li Hehua and said, ¡°Also, this person should follow me to town and make a statement too. She has to tell me in detail what happened!¡± ¡°No problem. I¡¯ll leave the suspect to you. I¡¯ll send Sister He Hua there!¡± After saying that, He Yu and Xu Ling supported Li Hehua and left. Looking at the half-dead Fu Zhonghua, Hu Jian was suddenly in a difficult position. Fortunately, Yang Guang reached out and lifted the fellow up with one hand. Then he said, ¡°Let¡¯s go. I¡¯ll help you send him to the car!¡± Hu Jian was stunned by his actions. After a moment of silence, he nodded and said, ¡°Okay.¡± The group of people crossed the river. Although most of the villagers had gone to work, there were some elderly who had difficulty getting about and were still in the village. When the people saw someone in Yang Guang¡¯s hand, they took a closer look and recognized the person to be Fu Zhonghua. With this, their expressions immediately changed. They did not dare to ask what had happened and could only secretly discuss it. Under the watchful eyes of the villagers, Yang Guang threw Fu Zhonghua into the police car and said to Hu Jian, ¡°Officer Hu, you go ahead. I¡¯ll take the car in the back.¡± ¡°Okay. By the way, what does that chubby girl do? How can she drive such a branded car?¡± Hu Jian asked. ¡°She¡¯s from the He family in the provincial capital. She¡¯s my friend,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Oh,¡± Hu Jian had never heard of the provincial capital¡¯s He family, so he only nodded blankly. However, he could tell from the way He Yu spoke that she was no ordinary person. He did not ask any more questions and quickly got into the car. The police car drove in front while He Yu¡¯s driver followed behind, everyone related in the car. He Yu and Xu Ling were not the only ones in the car. Mrs. Niu had also come with them. She was enraged by Fu Zhonghua¡¯s behavior, so she specifically wanted to testify! On the way, under everyone¡¯s comfort, Li Hehua recovered from her shock, and her emotions gradually stabilized. He Yu said at this time, ¡°It¡¯s fortunate that today¡¯s incident can be considered as a shock without danger. Sister Hehua, don¡¯t worry. With what happened just now, Fu Zhonghua is dead for sure!¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Upon hearing this, Li Hehua and Mrs. Niu were both shocked! ¡°It¡¯s not what you think. I mean, he can¡¯t escape this time. He will be sentenced to at least a few years in prison!¡± He Yu explained. ¡°You scared me. I thought you wanted to kill him!¡± Mrs. Niu said. ¡°If the law didn¡¯t forbid it, I would really want to kill this guy who bullies women!¡±He Yu said. ¡°Just let him get the punishment he deserves. There¡¯s no need to dirty your hands!¡± Xu Ling said. When the car arrived at the Hongqi Town police station, the group of people got out of the car. Today was a working day, thus all the police in the police station were around. Seeing such a big scene, everyone came out. Hu Jian arranged for someone to take Li Hehua to make a statement. Then he looked at Fu Zhonghua, who had come to. He turned to look at Yang Guang and said, ¡°With his injuries, I¡¯m afraid he won¡¯t be able to speak clearly even if we interrogated him!¡± ¡°It¡¯s alright, I have a way!¡± Yang Guang sneered. He reached out and grabbed Fu Zhonghua¡¯s chin. With a light squeeze, the fellow screamed and opened his mouth. Then, a pill entered his mouth, and Fu Zhonghua was immediately stunned! ¡°Kil¡ª He wants to kill me!¡± Fu Zhonghua could not speak clearly but still shouted! Hu Jian was speechless. He glared at him and said, ¡°What are you shouting for? This is the police station. No one can kill you!¡± ¡°If I had wanted to kill you, I would have done so already. There¡¯s no need to wait until now!¡± Yang Guang chuckled as well. Then, he turned to look at Hu Jian. ¡°In half an hour, his mouth will return to normal!¡± He Yu interjected from the side, ¡°If this guy refuses to admit it, then we can only take evidence. Officer Hu, should we also make some witness statements?¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need for that,¡± Hu Jian shook his head. ¡°Let me question this guy first!¡± He could finally see that Yang Guang and this girl from the provincial capital had set their eyes on Fu Zhonghua! Thinking of this, Hu Jian could not help but feel pity for Fu Zhonghua. He thought to himself, ¡°you brat, you¡¯re in big trouble this time!¡± Then, he brought Fu Zhonghua into the interrogation room, while Yang Guang and the others waited outside. Time passed very slowly, and everyone seemed to be a little impatient. Xu Ling even wanted to give Lu Wenwen a call and ask if she could rush over. However, Yang Guang stopped her and said that they should wait. After all, Hu Jian was still quite a righteous man. Yang Guang believed that he would be fair and wouldn¡¯t mess around. Half an hour passed, and another hour passed. It wasn¡¯t until it was almost noon when Hu Jian hurriedly came out of the interrogation room. ¡°How was it?¡± Yang Guang immediately asked. ¡°That fellow knows nothing about the law. He admitted everything!¡± Hu Jian smiled bitterly and continued, ¡°He admitted all of his actions, but he kept saying that he just wanted to be intimate with his wife. He didn¡¯t know that even if they weren¡¯t divorced, such behavior that goes against the will of the woman is still illegal!¡± ¡°Since he admitted to attempted rape and almost strangled Sister He Hua to death, then can he be convicted?¡± He Yu asked. Hu Jian shook his head. ¡°It¡¯s not up to me. He has to be sent to the Procuratorate and be convicted by Court!¡± ¡°I know the procedures!¡± He Yu said, then asked, ¡°Has Sister He Hua¡¯s evidence been collected?¡± ¡°Yes, she¡¯ll be out soon!¡± Hu Jian said. ¡°That¡¯s good then!¡± He Yu nodded and said to Yang Guang, ¡°Let¡¯s have lunch in town to calm Sister He Hua down. Bring me to the mayor in the afternoon!¡± Hu Jian was taken aback, ¡°The mayor? I have enforced the law impartially with no favoritism or fraud.. You can¡¯t just complain about me!¡± Chapter 169 - Return to the Provincial Capital Again Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Seeing that Hu Jian was nervous, He Yu smiled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m not going to complain about you. I¡¯m just want to discuss with your mayor about buying a part of the land in Hongqi Town and Qingshan Village!¡± ¡°Yeah, she¡¯s planning to develop the real estate industry here and build houses!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Huh?¡± Hu Jian¡¯s face was filled with confusion when he heard that. ¡°But this is just a poor rural area. Why build houses?¡± Yang Guang chuckled, ¡°You¡¯ll find out soon!¡± After Li Hehua came out, everyone surrounded her and asked her all sorts of questions. After confirming that she was fine, everyone got into the cars and left the police station. Li Hehua was already fine, but He Yu still insisted on claiming her nerves in town. In the end, she could not make her change her mind, so Li Hehua still agreed. There were only a few restaurants in Hongqi Town, and their dishes could only be said to be average. Fortunately, they weren¡¯t gourmets and were not picky about their dishes, so they just randomly went to one of the restaurants. During the meal, He Yu smiled and said, ¡°Yesterday, we were still discussing how to solve Sister He Hua¡¯s problem, but after today¡¯s incident, your worries have been completely solved, and you can live a good life in the future!¡± ¡°Yes, thank you for your concern for me,¡± Li Hehua glanced at Yang Guang and said softly. Not only her, but Yang Guang also felt a weight lifted off his heart. With Fu Zhonghua¡¯s arrest, it did not matter how many years he was sentenced. He could be at ease as long as Sister He Hua was no longer harassed and could live a peaceful life! After lunch, He Yu asked the driver to send Mrs. Niu and Li Hehua back to the village, while she went to the town hall with Xu Ling and Yang Guang. After learning about her purpose in coming, the mayor, Qi Qingsong, was shocked. He was dazed for a while and only believed her after Xu Ling confirmed that He Yu was not talking nonsense. With this, Qi Qingsong put on a warm look on his face. He quickly ordered his staff to prepare the guest items well and invited the three of them to the meeting room. He Yu¡¯s request was very simple. With Qingshan Village as the center, she wanted all the land within a radius of ten miles that could be bought! This area was not small, thus Qi Qingsong naturally attached great importance to it. He even got someone to get a map and the town¡¯s files to make sure which land could be used for business. Because He Yu wanted a large area and offered a price comparable to the county¡¯s land auction price, Qi Qingsong was so delighted that he grinned from ear to ear! Something like this was like a pie falling from the sky. Once He Yu really developed real estate around Qingshan Village, it meant that all the people in Hongqi Town could benefit from it! This was a huge political achievement! Under the impetus of this momentum, Qi Qingsong quickly reached a draft with He Yu. He Yu¡¯s company would buy 700 acres of barren mountains around Qingshan Village, and at least 200 acres of the land would be used for construction! The minute the draft was signed, Li Jinyun was immediately alerted. Before everyone had even returned to Qingshan Village, her call had already reached Xu Ling¡¯s cell phone. Although the formal contract had not been signed, the land sale in Hongqi Town was enough to shock the entire county¡¯s officialdom. If it wasn¡¯t that He Yu was in a rush to return to the provincial capital to prepare for the formal signing of the contract, Li Jinyun would have driven to Qingshan Village. When everyone returned home, Yang Guang didn¡¯t have much to say, so when He Yu was ready to leave, he immediately got into the car. After all, they had already agreed before that he would follow her back. In addition, He Yu had given many suggestions and help on Li Hehua¡¯s matter, so Yang Guang didn¡¯t hesitate at all as he felt that he owed her the favor. The car left Qingshan Village and did not pass through the county. Instead, it went straight to the nearest highway and sped towards the provincial capital. There was no talk on the road. In the evening, Yang Guang was back in the provincial capital once more. Looking at his phone, the messages he sent to Mu Xiaowan on the road had not been replied to. He did not know whether it was because the girl did not hear the message notifications or whether she was intentionally not replying to his messages. Yang Guang shook his head helplessly. He knew that Mu Xiaowan would leave the provincial capital after attending her classmate¡¯s wedding today, so he had sent her a message to let her know that he was back. However, since she had not replied to his message, Yang Guang had no choice but to wait. After He Yu¡¯s car entered the provincial capital, it drove directly to the south of the city and entered a community with lush greenery. Before they reached the place, Yang Guang looked at her and asked, ¡°This is the first time I¡¯m meeting your grandfather. Should I prepare some gifts or something?¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need for that. My grandfather has seen all sorts of riches. It¡¯s fine as long as you¡¯re here!¡± He Yu said. ¡°I don¡¯t think it¡¯s very polite!¡± Yang Guang smiled. He Yu turned to look at him, ¡°That¡¯s just common etiquette. There¡¯s no need for that with my grandfather. You¡¯ll know when you meet him!¡± ¡°Alright.¡± The car entered an independent courtyard and the two of them got out of the car. Yang Guang followed He yu into a two-story building, and then he saw her grandfather, He Qingtang. The old man was hale and hearty, his face jolly red. It was impossible to tell that he was a man in his seventies. He looked like he was about fifty years old. ¡°Grandfather, this is Yang Guang!¡± He Yu introduced. He Qingtang looked into Yang Guang¡¯s eyes, nodded, and said, ¡°The young man is indeed very energetic. He is a good match for my Yuyu!¡± Hearing this, Yang Guang was dumbfounded. He Yu rolled her eyes and said unhappily, ¡°Grandpa, this talk again. Whenever you see a young man, you say that he is a good match for me!¡± ¡°Well, it¡¯s all because I¡¯m anxious! I heard that all your classmates are getting married?¡± He Qingtang asked. ¡°Yeah, but getting wedded is not a competition. What does it have to do with me?!¡± He Yu said. ¡°Nothing to do with you? Then why aren¡¯t you attending your classmate¡¯s wedding? Isn¡¯t it because you¡¯re afraid you¡¯ll recall some old memories with the scene?¡± He Qingtang said. ¡°Geez, Grandpa, you¡¯re still saying this. If you continue, I won¡¯t talk to you!¡± He Yu stomped her feet. ¡°Hehe, okay, I¡¯ll stop!¡± He Qingtang laughed and winked at Yang Guang. Yang Guang: ¡°¡­¡± He finally understood. No wonder He Yu had said that there was no need to pay attention to secular etiquette with her grandfather. This old man was just an old mischievous child! Hence, he also chuckled and said, ¡°Grandpa, your body is quite strong!¡± ¡°It¡¯s alright. It¡¯s all thanks to my good maintenance when I was young!¡± He Qingtang smiled and continued, ¡°Come sit!¡± ¡°Thank you!¡± Yang Guang nodded and sat down on the sofa. He knew that the old man hadn¡¯t asked to meet him just to get to know him. It was probably about time for him to ask him questions. What Yang Guang did not expect was that even though he was mentally prepared, He Qingtang¡¯s first question still stunned him! The old man looked at Yang Guang and said, ¡°Young man, you don¡¯t have a girlfriend yet, right? What do you think of our Yuyu?¡± ¡°¡­¡± Yang Guang was speechless while He Yu glared at He Qingtang and stood up as if she wanted to leave. ¡°Grandfather, if you keep saying things like this, I¡¯m really leaving!¡± ¡°Alright,¡± He Qingtang laughed awkwardly before looking at Yang Guang and saying, ¡°Young man, I¡¯ve heard about your abilities, but I¡¯m not asking you about your medical skills today.. I want to ask you where you¡¯ve placed the jade Buddha!¡± Chapter 170 - Matchmaking? Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was stunned by the question. The image of a small jade Buddha statue immediately appeared in his mind! It was the thank-you gift that Yang Jianguo had given to him after he had treated him. If He Qingtang hadn¡¯t asked, he would have forgotten about it! Now that the old man mentioned it, Yang Guang remembered that he had liked the jade Buddha statue very much at that time. However, after he took it back home, he had put it into the box under his bed and never touched it again! ¡°Why do you know about the Buddha statue?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Isn¡¯t that simple? I¡¯ve seen that Buddha statue of yours a long time ago. I asked Jianguo for it twice, but he refused to give it to me no matter what. When I met him two days ago, he told me that he gave it away!¡± He Qingtang said with a dissatisfied look. ¡°Is that so?¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°If you like it, I¡¯ll give it to you later!¡± Unexpectedly, the old man shook his head. ¡°That won¡¯t do!¡± Then, he said seriously, ¡°Since it¡¯s in your hands, I want you to keep it well. Don¡¯t lose It!¡± Yang Guang was stunned and looked at He Qingtang. ¡°Why?¡± ¡°It¡¯s a treasure!¡± He Qingtang narrowed his eyes and said seriously, ¡°Yang Jianguo doesn¡¯t know the value of that thing, but I do. No matter where you got your ability, that jade Buddha will be very beneficial to you. It will only bring benefits and no disadvantages to you!¡± ¡°Really?¡± Yang Guang was a little surprised when he heard that. Then, he thought for a while before saying, ¡°But this matter should be known to Yang Jianguo, no?¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need. Even if you told him, it would be useless to him. That jade Buddha is not something that ordinary people can use. Do you understand what I mean?¡± He Qingtang said. Yang Guang was somewhat confused and could only nod blankly, ¡°I seem to understand a little!¡± ¡°That¡¯s good then!¡± He Qingtang smiled and stood up to pat him on the shoulder. ¡°It¡¯s getting late. Dinner should be ready. Let¡¯s go eat!¡± ¡°Okay,¡± Yang Guang nodded. With this, he and He Yu followed the old man out of the study room and went to the dining room together. Yang Guang found something strange. Didn¡¯t they say that the He family was a big family? Why was there no one else at home other than the auntie that did the cooking? Of course, it was not appropriate for him to ask this question, so he could only keep his doubts to himself. The dinner was very sumptuous. Although there were only three people, the table was full of dishes. He Qingtang did not ask any questions about Yang Guang¡¯s medical skills. He only cared about putting food on Yang Guang¡¯s plate. Facing the old man¡¯s enthusiasm, Yang Guang was a little flattered. At the same time, he was secretly puzzled. He did not understand why the old man would act this way, so he could not help but sneak a glance at He Yu while he ate. Unfortunately, He Yu played dumb and pretended not to see his gaze. She did not respond at all. When dinner was over, He Qingtang invited Yang Guang back to the study. At this time, the tea had just been brewed. After sitting down and taking a sip of tea, He Qingtang said to Yang Guang, ¡°Stay over at my house tonight. Treat this as your home. Don¡¯t stand on ceremony!¡± ¡°Okay, but grandpa, I have a question to ask you!¡± Yang Guang couldn¡¯t hold it in and could only take the initiative to ask. However, when he said this, He Qingtang shook his head. ¡°There¡¯s no need to rush, be patient for tonight. I¡¯ll definitely talk to you about serious matters tomorrow morning!¡± ¡°Uh, okay,¡± Yang Guang could only nod. He Qingtang looked at his granddaughter, ¡°Yuyu, stay at grandpa¡¯s tonight too!¡± ¡°It¡¯s fine!¡± He Yu hurriedly got up, ¡°I still have something to do at home. I¡¯ll be leaving first!¡± After saying that, she ran away without even looking back! ¡°This girl is really insensible!¡± He Qingtang shook his head and sighed. ¡°Why waste such a good opportunity?¡± Yang Guang did not know what he meant, so he could only stay quiet, pretending to be mute. After sitting for a while, He Qingtang noticed that it was getting late, so he said, ¡°It¡¯s already so late. Yang Guang, go upstairs and rest. The guest room has already been prepared for you!¡± ¡°Okay, then I¡¯ll go to bed first,¡± Yang Guang quickly got up and walked out of the door. He could not sit still any longer. He had been waiting for this sentence! The old man was acting so mysterious and had been attempting to play matchmaker between him and He Yu. It made Yang Guang feel very uncomfortable! As such, sitting in the study for such a long time made him feel as if he was sitting on pins and needles! Now he was finally free. Yang Guang let out a long sigh of relief when he walked out of the door. He did not expect that the best part was yet to come! Yang Guang followed the auntie upstairs and entered the guest room. The room was a little dark. He fumbled around for a while before he found the light switch in the room. The minute the lights were turned on, Yang Guang¡¯s eyes widened! There were photos everywhere in the room. And the person in the photos was naturally He Yu. From the age of two or three until now, photos of her every stage were here. ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± Yang Guang was dumbstruck as he looked around. Could this be He Yu¡¯s room? Otherwise, why would there be so many photos? However, the layout of the room didn¡¯t look like it. It wasn¡¯t probable that a girl¡¯s room looked like a standard room in a hotel, right? Yang Guang pondered over it and felt that the biggest possibility was that these photos were arranged by the old man, He Qingtang. He had probably brought all the photos of He Yu from other places here just for Yang Guang to see. Yang Guang was speechless after figuring this out. Then, he could only shake his head helplessly and smile bitterly. He sat down at the head of the bed and found that He Yu was smiling at him in all directions. Yang Guang had no choice but to turn off the lights in the room and let out a long sigh. Then, he lay on the bed and took out his phone to take a look. Mu Xiaowan still hadn¡¯t replied to his message. He dialed her number and was told that the other party¡¯s phone was turned off. Yang Guang was puzzled and wondered what had happened. Because he was worried about her, Yang Guang could only dial Qi Yingxue¡¯s number instead. ¡°Hello?¡± Qi Yingxue¡¯s voice was gentle. ¡°Sis, is Mu Xiaowan back?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°She¡¯s back. What¡¯s wrong?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. ¡°Oh, it¡¯s good that she¡¯s back,¡± Yang Guang heaved a sigh of relief and continued, ¡°She didn¡¯t reply to my text message before, and when I called her, her phone was switched off. I thought something happened!¡± ¡°No, she came back to look for me and just went home. She must have been too tired these few days that she switched off her phone and went to sleep!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Okay, then I¡¯m relieved,¡± Yang Guang smiled. Qi Yingxue nodded and then asked, ¡°How are you doing in the provincial capital?¡± ¡°Pretty good. If there¡¯s nothing important, I¡¯ll go back tomorrow,¡± Yang Guang said and then added, ¡°I¡¯ll go look for you after I go back.¡± ¡°Okay, we¡¯ll talk tomorrow,¡± Qi Yingxue said and then hung up the phone. Yang Guang laid down on the bed. The image of the night he was with her immediately surfaced in his mind. Even though Qi Yingxue had told him to forget about it and not to mention it again, that night was definitely something that Yang Guang would never forget for the rest of his life! After thinking about it, Yang Guang did not understand why she would not allow him to mention that night again. Mu Xiaowan also did not tell him her secret.. All this was just a headache! Chapter 171 - I Have a Girlfriend Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio A night passed. The next morning, while Yang Guang was still asleep, someone knocked on the door. Rubbing his eyes, Yang Guang got out of bed and opened the door. Seeing that his hair was messy, He Yu chuckled. Just as she was about to make fun of him, she was stunned, since she saw that the room was full of photos! Then, she stared at Yang Guang with her eyes wide open. ¡°You are such a pervert!¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Yang Guang was dumbfounded. Seeing her unfriendly expression, he turned around to look at the photos. Only then did he understand. ¡°Don¡¯t think too much. When I came here last night, the room was already occupied by photos. I don¡¯t even know why!¡± ¡°I don¡¯t believe you. These photos were all in the cabinet. If you did not move them, how could they be everywhere!¡± He Yu said angrily! ¡°I did not move them, but someone else did! Why are you blaming me?¡± Yang Guang asked helplessly. Hearing what he said, He Yu quickly caught on. Then, she narrowed her eyes and turned around. ¡°Aunty Lian, Aunty Lian!¡± ¡°I¡¯m coming!¡± Hearing the shouting, Aunty Lian rushed over. ¡°You took out my photos?¡± He Yu asked. Aunt Lian was a little nervous and nodded. ¡°Yes, yes. Sir He told me to take them out.¡± Yang Guang looked at He Yu. ¡°Now you know what happened. In the future, don¡¯t scold people when you do not know the truth. Am I clear?¡± He Yu ignored him and turned to leave the room. ¡°Hurry up and wash up. We¡¯ll be leaving soon!¡± She went downstairs. Watching her disappear in his sight, Yang Guang returned to his room and went to the bathroom. After he washed up, Aunty Lian told him to go to the dining room. Sir He and He Yu were already having breakfast. Yang Guang went downstairs to the dining room. He greeted He Qingtang. Then, he sat down and asked, ¡°Where are we going today?¡± ¡°To see an old friend of mine. Don¡¯t worry. It won¡¯t take long,¡± He Qingtang said. ¡°Oh, it¡¯s okay. Time doesn¡¯t matter!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Come back and wait for me after the visit. I¡¯ll take you home when I finish my business!¡± He Yu said. ¡°You¡¯re not coming with me?¡± Yang Guang asked. He Yu rolled her eyes. ¡°I¡¯m very busy, okay? If grandfather didn¡¯t insist, I would have gone to the company this morning!¡± ¡°Oh, okay.¡± Yang Guang smiled and didn¡¯t say anything. After breakfast, they set off. He got into a black car with He Qingtang. On the way, He Qingtang looked at Yang Guang and said meaningfully, ¡°Yang Guang, what do you think of Yuyu?¡± ¡°Uh, she is a good girl.¡± Yang Guang didn¡¯t know how to answer, so he could only equivocate. However, He Qingtang didn¡¯t give up and looked at him with a smile. ¡°Could you be more specific? Do you think Yuyu is pretty?¡± ¡°This¡­¡± Yang Guang pondered for a moment. He Yu was not ugly. It was just that because of her previous illness, she gained a lot of weight. Last night, when he looked at the pictures of her as a kid, he found that He Yu was very beautiful before she gained weight. However, Yang Guang could not say it out. He felt that He Qingtang was so persistent. He Qingtang always wanted to introduce his granddaughter to him. After a moment of hesitation, he said, ¡°She¡¯s pretty, but¡­¡± Before he could finish the sentence, He Qingtang directly interrupted him, ¡°It¡¯s fine as long as you think she¡¯s pretty. I think that Yuyu likes you quite a lot. Then that¡¯s it. The two of you should date!¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Yang Guang was immediately dumbfounded. He looked at He Qingtang in shock, ¡°No, I can¡¯t do that.¡± ¡°What? You have a girlfriend?¡± He Qingtang asked. ¡°Yes, I already have a girlfriend!¡± Thinking of Mu Xiaowan, Yang Guang immediately said. There was a glint in He Qingtang¡¯s eyes. ¡°No one can compare to my granddaughter. My granddaughter is beautiful and rich. Hurry up and break up with your girlfriend!¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Hearing what he said, Yang Guang was so shocked. This old man was such a hard nut to crack! Knowing that he had a girlfriend, He Qingtang still did not change his mind. He Qingtang actually wanted him to break up with her. Not knowing what to do, he looked at He Qingtang and said, ¡°Sir He, you must be kidding. You can¡¯t force two people to love each other.¡± ¡°Haha, alright then. Let¡¯s not talk about this anymore!¡± He Qingtang looked at him and suddenly smiled. Keeping his word, he didn¡¯t mention He Yu anymore. The car didn¡¯t enter the city district. Instead, after driving along the ring road for a while, they reached a small town that was located on the outskirts of the city. After that, the car drove into a very large courtyard. In the large courtyard were bungalows. Other than the parking lot, there was also a pergola. There were many vines. The green grapes hung on all the branches. There was also a vegetable garden beside the pergola. Several kinds of vegetables were planted in it. The vegetables were all vivid green. Seeing this scene, Yang Guang felt as if he had returned home. He immediately felt extremely intimate! Then, he followed He Qingtang out of the car. An old man in the house also came out to welcome them. ¡°Qingtang, my friend, why are you so late!¡± The old man laughed. ¡°Hongsheng, am I late? I especially woke up early today!¡± He Qingtang also had a smile on his face. Then, he immediately made an introduction. ¡°This kid is Yang Guang!¡± The old man sized up Yang Guang and then nodded. ¡°Not bad, not bad. He is energetic!¡± Yang Guang was speechless. He thought to himself, ¡°I¡¯m so young. Of course, I am energetic. I am not an old man!¡± Hiding all the thoughts, Yang Guang still smiled and greeted the old man. ¡°Hello, Sir Mu!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t call me Sir Mu. Just call me grandfather. Aren¡¯t you on good terms with Xiaowan?¡± The old man laughed. ¡°Ah?¡± Yang Guang was stunned and his eyes immediately widened! Shocked by his words, he even stuttered, ¡°You, you are¡­¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. You didn¡¯t expect that, right?¡± Mu Hongsheng nodded and said with a smile, ¡°Alright, calm down. Let¡¯s go inside!¡± Entering the house, Yang Guang found that the interior was very clean, but the style of the decoration was not as elegant as that of the He family. This place looked like the residence of an old countryman. It did not have the air of luxury. After sitting down, Mu Hongsheng looked at Yang Guang. ¡°Xiaowan told me that you actually wanted to see me for a long time.¡± ¡°Yes, but I¡¯ve been very busy and haven¡¯t found the right time!¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. Since Mu Xiaowan had already said so, he naturally had to follow her. He couldn¡¯t tell the old man that he was not that eager. He brought it up once, but he forgot about it afterward. How could he say so? Mu Hongsheng nodded. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect it to be you at first, but after hearing what Xiaowan said yesterday, I knew that the person Qingtang is bringing today is you!¡± ¡°Yang Guang, your girlfriend is Hongsheng¡¯s granddaughter?¡± He Qingtang asked. ¡°Uh¡­¡± Hearing his question, Yang Guang didn¡¯t know how to answer. The two old men looked at him with gleaming eyes. He was a little flustered. He swallowed his saliva and said, ¡°I have a good relationship with Xiaowan. I think that she is my girlfriend.¡± He Qingtang and Mu Hongsheng looked at each other and smiled at the same time! Their smiles were a little strange. Yang Guang¡¯s heart sank when he saw them.. ¡°What¡¯s Wrong?¡± Chapter 172 - Azure Dragon Cave Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Mu Hongsheng looked at Yang Guang. ¡°Young man, don¡¯t be nervous. We all know about the relationship between you and Xiaowan!¡± ¡°Ah?¡± The nervousness did not fade away. Anxiety penetrated every inch of Yang Guang¡¯s soul! He Qingtang looked at him. ¡°I used Yuyu to test you. I want to know your character!¡± Hearing what he said, Yang Guang was speechless. It turned out that the old man just wanted to know if he would fall in love with someone else. ¡°Actually, it was not necessary. You did not have to do that.¡± Yang Guang was unhappy and his face darkened. Even so, He Qingtang and Mu Hongsheng did not care. Instead, they chuckled. Mu Hongsheng said, ¡°Of course, it was necessary. To us, the character is more important than personal strength! We will choose a man of integrity.¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Yang Guang was stunned. He looked at the two of them in confusion. ¡°What does this mean? You choose me? For what?¡± ¡°We do not choose you. You are the Chosen One!¡± Mu Hongsheng said this and then reminded him, ¡°You have a jade Buddha, right?¡± ¡°Yeah, why are you bringing this up again?¡± Yang Guang looked puzzled and asked. ¡°With it, you will be a member of our Azure Dragon Cave!¡± Mu Hongsheng said with a smile, his face full of excitement. ¡°Don¡¯t look at me like that. Why do I feel that the two of you don¡¯t have good intentions?¡± Yang Guang shuddered. ¡°How can you say that we don¡¯t have good intentions? After taking the jade Buddha and passing the test, you will be the leader of the Azure Dragon Cave. All the disciples will listen to your orders!¡± He Qingtang said. ¡°This¡­¡± Yang Guang was stunned. His eyes widened and he swallowed his saliva. ¡°What is Azure Dragon Cave? Is it a mafia-style gang?¡± Hearing what he said, the two old men were lost for words. Then, Mu Hongsheng said unhappily, ¡°Don¡¯t talk nonsense. The Azure Dragon Cave is a non-governmental organization that was established three thousand years ago. It is still active even today. Countless famous big shots in history belonged to the Azure Dragon Cave. It is definitely not a mafia-style gang.¡± ¡°Oh, could you tell me the name of those big shots?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°You will know in the future!¡± Mu Hongsheng said this and then added, ¡°Now is not the time to talk about that. Sit down and listen carefully to what I say!¡± ¡°Wait a moment!¡± Seeing that he was serious, Yang Guang quickly reached out his hands to stop him. Then, he said, ¡°I don¡¯t want to join this organization.¡± ¡°Ah?¡± The two old men were stunned and their eyes widened at the same time. After glancing at Mu Hongsheng, He Qingtang riveted his eyes at Yang Guang with a puzzled look. ¡°Could you tell me why? Joining us will only bring you benefits!¡± ¡°I haven¡¯t figured out what¡¯s going on yet. I need time to think it through. You can¡¯t force me to join you. You have to get my consent, right?¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°That¡¯s true!¡± Mu Hongsheng nodded and continued, ¡°You can refuse us. If you don¡¯t want to join us, then send the jade Buddha back. We¡¯ll find another ideal leader!¡± At this point, he looked into Yang Guang¡¯s eyes. ¡°But since you already know the secret of the Azure Dragon Cave, we have to erase your memory to ensure that the secret won¡¯t be leaked!¡± He Qingtang nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. But when we erase your memory, there is a chance that you will completely lose your memory and become a fool.¡± Hearing what they said, Yang Guang was lost for words. Looking at the two old men, he could not help but moan, ¡°You are just scaring me. So if I don¡¯t join you, you won¡¯t kill me, but you will make me a fool, right?¡± ¡°You totally misunderstood us. We are not threatening you at all. We are just giving you advice!¡± Mu Hongsheng smiled and continued, ¡°It¡¯s fine if you don¡¯t agree. Then I¡¯ll ask Xiaowan to study abroad later. You will not have the chance to see her anymore!¡± ¡°My granddaughter¡¯s investment will also be withdrawn. She won¡¯t invest in Qingshan Village anymore!¡± He Qingtang said. Hearing their words, Yang Guang was speechless. Then, he said angrily, ¡°This is definitely a threat!¡± ¡°Contradictions of thoughts keep us apart!¡± Mu Hongsheng declared haughtily. Looking at the serious expressions of the two old men in front of him, Yang Guang shook his head helplessly. ¡°All right, fine. The two of you are old and respectable. I did not expect you to act shamelessly!¡± ¡°Then, tell me your answer.¡± Mu Hongsheng chuckled. Showing no anger, he asked with a smile. ¡°I guess I have no choice. I will join you.¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes. He could tolerate everything else, but he could not stand the frustration of not seeing Mu Xiaowan again! Seeing that Yang Guang nodded his head, Mu Hongsheng smiled happily and continued, ¡°Alright then. Since you¡¯ve agreed, from now on, you¡¯ll be our leader. Qingtang and I will be your subordinates!¡± ¡°Oh, really? I did not expect this.¡± Yang Guang was very surprised and his face was full of astonishment. He Qingtang glared at him. ¡°Didn¡¯t I say just now that you¡¯re our leader? Then the people of the Azure Dragon Cave will naturally listen to your orders!¡± ¡°Right, how many people do we have in total?¡± Yang Guang asked. Mu Hongsheng stretched out a hand. Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°Oh, only five people?¡± ¡°We have five factions. The number of people from each faction is unknown. In any case, my faction now has ten people!¡± Mu Hongsheng said. He Qingtang added, ¡°My faction has six people!¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes when he heard that. ¡°Then the other three factions probably have fifty people at most, right?¡± ¡°That¡¯s not clear. We haven¡¯t seen people from the other three factions for a long time. There might be an increase!¡± Mu Hongsheng said. Yang Guang sighed and then asked, ¡°The two of you are each responsible for a faction. What should I call you?¡± ¡°Well, we are the Elders!¡± Mu Hongsheng patted his chest. ¡°I am the Elder of the water faction!¡± Then, he turned to look at He Qingtang. ¡°He is the Elder of the gold faction!¡± ¡°Oh, it is divided according to the five elements. Does that mean that there are also the earth faction, wood faction, and fire faction?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°That¡¯s right!¡± Mu Hongsheng nodded. ¡°They have their own duties and responsibilities. Are you done asking us questions now? If you are done, we shall get down to business!¡± ¡°No, don¡¯t be anxious!¡± Yang Guang laughed bitterly and asked, ¡°What are these five factions for? Besides, I¡¯ve agreed to become the leader. What are the specific benefits?¡± ¡°This is what I¡¯m going to say next. Listen carefully!¡± Having finished the sentence, Mu Hongsheng sat up straight. Facing Yang Guang, he said seriously, ¡°The Azure Dragon Cave was established according to the will of heaven. People are considered as our foundation. We follow the orders of gods and thwart the evil¡­¡± Yang Guang listened quietly. What Mu Hongsheng was saying was difficult to follow. He almost fell into a daze. The two old men looked at him with solemn expressions. Without them, he would have fallen asleep. After Mu Hongsheng explained a lot, Yang Guang finally had a preliminary understanding of the origins of the Azure Dragon Cave and the organizational structure. In Yang Guang¡¯s own words, the purpose of the existence of the Azure Dragon Cave was to maintain world peace! As for the five factions, they each had their own duties. The gold faction gathered wealth. The water faction nurtured the people. The wood faction guarded the roots. The fire faction attacked the enemies. And the earth faction patrolled the world.. Chapter 173 - The Leader Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After knowing the basic situation, Yang Guang said, ¡°Okay, I understand. But you haven¡¯t said the most important thing yet!¡± Mu Hongsheng nodded. ¡°I know. Don¡¯t be anxious!¡± Then, he smiled and continued, ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about your responsibilities. You don¡¯t have to change your way of living. You don¡¯t have to run around!¡± ¡°Then being a leader is such an easy task, really? I don¡¯t have to do anything, and I can control the five factions. Oh, do I have any other benefits? For example, money!¡± Yang Guang asked. He Qingtang shook his head. ¡°The wealth accumulated by the gold faction is used to make ends meet. I can¡¯t give it to the leader!¡± Mu Hongsheng continued, ¡°The benefit is that you can command the five factions, especially the people of the fire faction. They are all experts, very powerful ones. And you do have some responsibilities. Once there is chaos in the world, whether it¡¯s a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, our Azure Dragon Cave has the responsibility to deal with it!¡± ¡°Oh, doing good deeds. That¡¯s not a problem!¡± Yang Guang nodded when he heard this. Then, he asked seriously, ¡°Before I completely agree, I still have a question. Why me?¡± Mu Hongsheng and He Qingtang looked at each other. Then, they said, ¡°Because you¡¯re a miracle doctor. We know that you must have received some special inheritance. Otherwise, you definitely wouldn¡¯t have such a miraculous ability. The twenty-fifth generation leader of our Azure Dragon Cave is also a miracle doctor. Back then, he once led the Azure Dragon Cave to create the glory of an era!¡± ¡°Who is it?¡± Yang Guang asked. Mu Hongsheng said, ¡°You¡¯ll know it when you hold the jade Buddha!¡± Then, he immediately asked, ¡°Now you completely agree, right?¡± ¡°Uh, I¡¯ll think about it!¡± Yang Guang said. When the two old men heard that, their eyes immediately widened! He Qingtang was even more unhappy. ¡°Young man, why are you so long-winded? It seems that you¡¯re afraid that the two of us will trick you!¡± ¡°To be honest, I¡¯m really a little afraid!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and continued to ask, ¡°Then if I agree, how can I find the people from the other three factions?¡± ¡°Their special contact details are all recorded in the jade Buddha. You haven¡¯t agreed to be the 48th generation leader yet, so I can¡¯t tell you!¡± Mu Hongsheng said. Hearing this, Yang Guang nodded his head. ¡°Alright then.¡± When the two old men heard what he said, they asked at the same time, ¡°You agree?¡± ¡°I agree. If I still don¡¯t agree, I¡¯m afraid that the two of you will lose your mind!¡± Yang Guang laughed! When they heard this, He Qingtang and Mu Hongsheng stood up at the same time! Yang Guang thought that the two of them were going to kneel down, but in the end, they only bowed deeply and said, ¡°Welcome to Azure Dragon Cave, my leader!¡± ¡°You don¡¯t have to be this solemn. We are all on the same side!¡± Yang Guang said. Seeing the two old men pay huge respect to him, he suddenly felt a sense of superiority. The tone of his voice changed. ¡°After you go home, take out that jade Buddha and instill the spiritual energy in it. Then, you will know more about the Azure Dragon Cave. At the same time, you will also be able to obtain the inheritance left by the previous leaders. Oh, you had better carry it with you. This way, when the other three factions see you, they will know that you are the leader of the Azure Dragon Cave!¡± Mu Hongsheng said. ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll remember it!¡± Yang Guang nodded his head. He was eager to return home. He could not wait to find the jade Buddha and study it properly. However, he couldn¡¯t leave right away. After all, He Yu¡¯s matter hadn¡¯t been settled and he had to wait for her. Therefore, while there was still time, Yang Guang looked at Mu Hongsheng. ¡°Then, how should we address each other now?¡± ¡°When there are outsiders, we still have to follow the secular etiquette. But when you are only with us, you can call me Elder Mu,¡± Mu Hongsheng said. ¡°Oh, okay!¡± Yang Guang nodded and then asked, ¡°Elder Mu, now you don¡¯t object to the relationship between Xiaowan and me, right?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t object. I don¡¯t object!¡± Mu Hongsheng smiled and continued, ¡°I will tell my son to cancel Xiaowan¡¯s engagement and let her be with you in the future!¡± Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°What engagement?¡± ¡°Why? Didn¡¯t Xiaowan tell you?¡± Mu Hongsheng asked. ¡°She didn¡¯t. I felt that she got a lot on her mind, but I¡¯m not sure what¡¯s going on!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°It¡¯s okay. I¡¯ll tell you!¡± Then, Mu Hongsheng began to talk about Mu Xiaowan. Having finished listening to the whole story, Yang Guang had a moment of enlightenment. ¡°Well, I always feel that she¡¯s hiding something from me. So that¡¯s how it is!¡± ¡°It doesn¡¯t have to be that way. You don¡¯t need to be anxious. This matter can definitely be resolved. I won¡¯t let Xiaowan marry someone she doesn¡¯t like!¡± Mu Hongsheng said. Yang Guang nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. I won¡¯t either!¡± It was towards noon. Yang Guang¡¯s phone rang. It was He Yu who called him. He answered the call. He Yu asked, ¡°Are you done? I¡¯m ready to set off!¡± Hearing her words, Yang Guang hurriedly said, ¡°I¡¯m done. I¡¯ll leave immediately!¡± Then, he asked, ¡°Where are you? I¡¯ll go look for you!¡± ¡°I¡¯m at my grandfather¡¯s house. You can come back!¡± Having finished the sentence, she directly hung up the phone. Yang Guang looked at He Qingtang and Mu Hongsheng. ¡°I will leave now. I want to quickly go home and take a look at that jade Buddha!¡± ¡°Alright. Since you are in a hurry, then I won¡¯t keep you,¡± Mu Hongsheng said. ¡°This is not a big deal. It doesn¡¯t matter. When you have time, come to my place. I will invite you to dinner!¡± Yang Guang said. Then he got up to leave. On the way back, He Qingtang said to him, ¡°Mr. Huang, Yuyu doesn¡¯t know anything about the Azure Dragon Cave. Please keep it a secret and don¡¯t tell her.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ll keep it a secret and won¡¯t mention it to anyone!¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°That¡¯s great!¡± He Qingtang nodded his head and continued, ¡°I hope that under your leadership, our Azure Dragon Cave can create glory again!¡± Yang Guang smiled. Looking at him, he asked, ¡°Before me, was there no suitable candidate to be the leader?¡± ¡°Not really. The world changes rapidly. There aren¡¯t many people with special abilities in the world now, but if you try hard, you can still find some. It¡¯s just that for the past decades, Mu Hongsheng has been searching for suitable candidates, but none of them could catch his eye!¡± He Qingtang said. ¡°I see!¡± Yang Guang nodded his head. Then, he said with a smile, ¡°Elder Mu really has an eye for it. I don¡¯t have any flaws, and I have an upright character. Moreover, I have a benevolent heart. Naturally, I¡¯m the most suitable one!¡± He Qingtang was startled. He turned to look at him and said, ¡°Don¡¯t boast like that. Your arrogant personality needs to be changed!¡± When they reached home, he did not see He Yu¡¯s car in the courtyard. Instead, he saw a black off-road vehicle parked there. When Yang Guang got out of the car, He Yu also came out of the house. ¡°You¡¯re back just in time. Hurry up and leave.. As long as time permits, you can still go sign the contract!¡± Chapter 174 - Method of Divine Eyes Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio When He Qingtang heard this, he could not help but ask, ¡°Are you in such a hurry? You haven¡¯t eaten anything yet.¡± ¡°It¡¯s fine. I bought some bread and ham. I¡¯ll eat them on the way.¡± He Yu immediately got into the car. Seeing this, Yang Guang could only bid farewell to He Qingtang and got into the car. He Yu and Yang Guang soon left provincial capital. On the highway, she turned to look at Yang Guang. ¡°How was it in the morning?¡± ¡°It was beyond my expectations.¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Oh? What happened?¡± He Yu asked. Yang Guang looked at her. ¡°You don¡¯t need to know about that. Anyway, something good happened.¡± ¡°Whatever.¡± He Yu rolled her eyes and then looked ahead. ¡°If you¡¯re hungry, there¡¯s food and drinks in the back seat.¡± ¡°I¡¯m not hungry. I just want to go home as soon as possible,¡± Yang Guang said. He was indeed in a rush to go home because he was anxious to get that jade Buddha. After that, they said nothing else on the way. He Yu drove to Hongqi Town and immediately went to Qi Qingsong. She signed a contract with the town hall on behalf of Qingshan Construction Company. The initial investment was 17 million dollars and the additional investment was 50 million dollars. After signing the contract, Qi Qingsong had a wide smile on his face. He insisted that he wanted to treat He Yu to a meal to express the town hall¡¯s gratitude. However, He Yu and Yang Guang did not want to eat here, so they declined. When the two of them returned to Qingshan Village, it was already past five o¡¯clock in the afternoon. Wu Xiaolian was already preparing dinner because she knew He Yu was back. Yang Guang didn¡¯t say much. He chatted with Wu Xiaolian and He Yu for a while in the courtyard before returning to his room. Yang Guang closed the door, went to the bedside, and squatted down. Then, he pulled out the box under the bed. Some of his personal belongings were in this box. Because he didn¡¯t know where to put the jade Buddha, he casually put it in the box as well. After pulling out the box and opening it, Yang Guang was stunned. He put the jade Buddha on the top, but now it was gone. Yang Guang¡¯s heart sank, and he felt his blood turn cold. Then, he hurriedly stood up and ran outside. Looking at Wu Xiaolian, he asked, ¡°Sister Xiaolian, did you touch the box under my bed?¡± ¡°No. What is it?¡± Wu Xiaolian asked. ¡°Well¡­¡± Yang Guang felt scared. How could such a thing happen? Where was the jade Buddha? When he thought of those Spiritual Stones, his body trembled and he hurriedly ran back into his room. He opened the box and touched the cloth bag at the bottom. When he found that the Spirit Stones were still in the box, Yang Guang heaved a sigh of relief. If he lost the Spiritual Stones, it would really be a heavy loss. ¡°This is really strange. Why did the jade Buddha disappear?¡± Yang Guang was confused and scratched his head. The laughter of a child came from outside. Yang Guang raised his head and looked out of the window. It turned out that Xu Ling returned with Yaya in her arms. Knowing that Yaya could already run all over the place, Yang Guang hurriedly went out and asked, ¡°Sister Ling, has Yaya been to my room these few days?¡± ¡°Yes. She went to your room yesterday and opened the box under your bed. Fortunately, I stopped her in time, or you are in big trouble.¡± Xu Ling smiled. ¡°Did she take a jade Buddha?¡± Yang Guang¡¯s heart was in his throat. If Yaya broke the jade Buddha, he would be in so much trouble. Xu Ling smiled and reached out to pull the red string on Yaya¡¯s neck. The jade Buddha was revealed. ¡°It¡¯s here. Yaya liked the jade Buddha, so I found her a string and let her wear it around her neck.¡± Yang Guang let out a long breath and said, ¡°I was almost scared to death. Fortunately, I didn¡¯t lose the jade Buddha.¡± After saying that, he went forward and reached out to remove the string. Yaya was unhappy about it. She pouted and prepared to cry. Seeing this, Yang Guang hurriedly said, ¡°Don¡¯t cry. There¡¯s delicious food in the car. I¡¯ll get it for you later if you give this to me, okay?¡± After some time, he got the jade Buddha off Yaya. Seeing him like this, Xu Ling and the others were a little puzzled. He Yu was curious. ¡°What kind of jade is this? It doesn¡¯t look valuable. Why are you so nervous about it?¡± ¡°You don¡¯t understand. This thing is useful to me.¡± Yang Guang looked at Yaya. ¡°If you like the jade Buddha, I will buy you a more expensive one later.¡± Everybody was bewildered. Yang Guang ignored that, held the jade Buddha, and hurried back to his room. ¡°Why is he acting so weird?¡± He Yu muttered. Xu Ling was also a little confused. She smiled and said, ¡°Who knows what happened to him?¡± After returning to his room, Yang Guang sat down and the energy in his body began to circulate. Then, the energy directly seeped into the jade Buddha through his palm. Yang Guang heard a roar. After that, he saw a magnificent scene. There were mountains, rivers, and vast fields. It was actually an ancient map. Yang Guang was astonished. All of a sudden, an old man¡¯s portrait appeared before his eyes. The old man looked divine. His hair was white and his beard went down to his chest, which made him seem extremely majestic. Yang Guang now knew who this old man was. It turned out that the old man was Xu Mizi, the founder of Azure Dragon Cave. The portraits of the cave¡¯s leaders appeared before Yang Guang¡¯s eyes one by one and he was dazzled. Fortunately, these contents had already been imprinted in his memory, so he didn¡¯t need to memorize them. Otherwise, remembering the faces of those people would be a very tough task. After that, Yang Guang went through the history of the Azure Dragon Cave and remembered it without effort. In the end, Yang Guang discovered a good thing. It was a formula only known by the cave¡¯s leaders. The formula was called Method of Divine Eyes. Seeing this, Yang Guang was amazed. After he finished reading the formula, he almost laughed out loud. In order not to scare Xu Ling and the others outside, Yang Guang suppressed his laughter. The so-called Method of Divine Eyes enabled Yang Guang to see through everything. All men must have dreamed of gaining such an ability. Yang Guang was no exception. And what he wanted to see most was women¡¯s bodies. Yang Guang hurriedly read the formula again and memorized it. Then, he started cultivating according to the formula. After a long time, Wu Xiaolian¡¯s shout came from outside the door and awoke Yang Guang who was immersed in cultivating. He got up, opened the door, and found that Wu Xiaolian¡¯s coat became translucent. Even her underwear could be clearly seen by Yang Guang. It seemed that he could not see through her underwear because he only cultivated it for a short period of time. Yang Guang knew that it was inappropriate for him to do this to Wu Xiaolian, so he quickly stopped using Method of Divine Eyes and asked with a smile, ¡°What¡¯s wrong, Sister Xiaolian?¡± ¡°Didn¡¯t you hear me?¡± Wu Xiaolian was stunned and then said, ¡°I¡¯ve said that several times. It¡¯s time to eat.¡± ¡°Okay. I¡¯ll be right over.¡± Yang Guang smiled and quickly went out. When he saw Xu Ling and He Yu outside, his heart skipped a beat.. Chapter 175 - Evil Thoughts Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang suddenly had evil thoughts and wanted to use the Method of Divine Eyes to see through Xu Ling and He Yu. However, he felt guilty the next moment. Although he was a little mischievous, he was not a very bad person. Thinking about seeing through Xu Ling and He Yu was one thing, but it was another thing to actually do it. Yang Guang helplessly shook his head and decided not to do it. After all, peeping at someone behind their back was indeed a little nasty. Therefore, he got rid of his bad thoughts and sat down at the dining table. ¡°Yang Guang, the road to the mountains is about to be completed very soon. In a few days, we can start working on the scenic spots. You should be mentally prepared first,¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°Okay. It¡¯s time for me to start making money.¡± Yang Guang understood what she meant and nodded. ¡°How much money do you have now?¡± He Yu asked. ¡°Not much.¡± Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I will get more money soon.¡± ¡°Really?¡± He Yu¡¯s eyes narrowed. ¡°Don¡¯t be so stubborn. If you don¡¯t have enough money, I can give you some.¡± ¡°That won¡¯t do. We have a bet and I won¡¯t be proud to win our bet if you give me money.¡± Yang Guang laughed. He Yu rolled her eyes and didn¡¯t want to talk to him anymore. After dinner, there was a breeze and the weather became less hot. Everyone sat in the yard to cool down. Seeing Yaya and Little Guang having fun, they were all in a good mood. Yang Guang sat next to Xu Ling. The distance between the two of them was less than five inches. Seeing that He Yu and Wu Xiaolian were looking at Yaya, Yang Guang could not help but reach out to secretly poke Xu Ling. Xu Ling was stunned. Then, she glared at him and did not say anything. Seeing this, Yang Guang grinned. His hand went behind her back and wrapped around her waist. Xu Ling¡¯s face quickly turned red and her ears were red as well. Her heart was beating wildly. Xu Ling panicked because she was afraid that Wu Xiaolian and He Yu would see it. Fortunately, Yang Guang only put his arm around her waist and did not do anything else. If Yang Guang did something else, Xu Ling did not know what to do. The sky gradually got dark. After Yaya fell asleep in Wu Xiaolian¡¯s arms, Wu Xiaolian carried Yaya back to her room. After that, Xu Ling and He Yu prepared to take a shower. Seeing that Yang Guang was still sitting outside, He Yu said angrily, ¡°Hey! Can you go back to your room?¡± ¡°Why?¡± Yang Guang asked in confusion. ¡°Last time, I found that you insisted on waiting for us to come out of the shower before going back to your room. You have some evil thoughts, right?¡± He Yu asked. Yang Guang¡¯s face turned red because He Yu saw through him. Fortunately, the light at night was dim, so He Yu didn¡¯t see his red face. In order to prove his innocence, Yang Guang stood up. ¡°Don¡¯t talk as if I¡¯m a pervert. I¡¯ll go back to my room and sleep now, okay?¡± After saying that, he turned around and left. Before Yang Guang went back to his room, he happened to see Xu Ling trying hard to suppress her laughter. Yang Guang could only shake his head. Yang Guang returned to his room, sat down cross-legged, and began cultivating with Spiritual Stone. The night passed quickly. The next morning, when Yang Guang was having breakfast, he looked at He Yu and asked, ¡°You¡¯ve already signed the contract. What are you going to do next?¡± ¡°I¡¯m going to prepare for construction,¡± He Yu said and then smiled, ¡°But before that, I have to go to the county to find a place for my company. Then, the staff from the provincial capital will come over and begin exploring as well as planning. There are a lot of things to do.¡± ¡°It sounds like you will be very busy.¡± Yang Guang said, ¡°Since everyone is doing their work, I have to get down to business as well.¡± ¡°What are you going to do? Are you going to earn the 30 million dollars?¡± He Yu asked. ¡°Yes. It¡¯s time to show my real strength,¡± Yang Guang smiled and said. He Yu pursed her lips when she heard that. ¡°Just don¡¯t forget to come back.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry. This is my home. No matter where I go, I¡¯ll come back.¡± Yang Guang laughed. Upon hearing that, Wu Xiaolian asked nervously, ¡°Yang Guang, where are you going?¡± ¡°I haven¡¯t decided where to go yet.¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°Even if I travel far, it won¡¯t be too long. I¡¯ll be back very soon.¡± ¡°Can you really earn that much money?¡± Wu Xiaolian asked. At first, Wu Xiaolian thought that the bet was just a farce. However, seeing that the roads in the scenic spots began to be built, she knew that Yang Guang was serious. The construction of the scenic spots required a large amount of money and Wu Xiaolian had never seen that much money. Nevertheless, seeing that Yang Guang looked calm and confident, Wu Xiaolian was relieved. Before Yang Guang finished his breakfast, his phone suddenly rang. Seeing the caller ID, he was stunned for a moment before he answered, ¡°What¡¯s wrong, Wenwen? Are you coming to my home?¡± ¡°No. Can you come to the county? I have something to ask you,¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°What is it?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Let¡¯s talk about it when you¡¯re here. If you have anything else to do, please cancel it. It¡¯s an emergency,¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°Okay.¡± Yang Guang hesitated for a moment and agreed. Lu Wenwen treated him well and helped him a lot in the past, so he had no reason to reject her. After that, Yang Guang looked at He Yu. ¡°Now I need to go to the county with you.¡± ¡°All right. My trip to the county wouldn¡¯t be so boring then.¡± He Yu smiled and asked, ¡°Who is Lu Wenwen?¡± He Yu and Lu Wenwen hadn¡¯t crossed paths before, so He Yu did not know Lu Wenwen. Yang Guang had nothing to hide from He Yu. Hence, he briefly told her about Lu Wenwen. Then, He Yu said, ¡°I¡¯ve heard of this organization before. Something must have happened since she asked you for help, right?¡± ¡°I guess so. But no matter what happened, I have an obligation to help her,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Be careful. It could be dangerous.¡± He Yu reminded him. Yang Guang smiled. ¡°I don¡¯t think I¡¯m the one who needs to be careful.¡± ¡°You¡¯re bragging all the time.¡± He Yu rolled her eyes at him and was too lazy to say anything else. Wu Xiaolian and Xu Ling both told Yang Guang that he should stay be careful if he were to fight. Yang Guang said okay and returned to his room to pack up. Then, he got into He Yu¡¯s car and left Qingshan Village. It was about eight o¡¯clock in the morning when the car arrived at the county. Yang Guang got out of the car. ¡°Stay safe. If you get hurt, I will laugh at you,¡± He Yu shouted from the driver¡¯s seat. ¡°Okay. I¡¯ll definitely not get hurt.¡± Yang Guang smiled and waved at her. After He Yu¡¯s car left, he turned around and looked at the public security bureau¡¯s door behind him. Then, he walked over.. Chapter 176 - Entering the Mountains Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Just as Yang Guang reached the door, Lu Wenwen drove out. She lowered the car window and smiled sweetly at Yang Guang. ¡°You are right on time. Get in the car.¡± Yang Guang grinned. After getting in the car, he saw that she was dressed in sportswear, so he asked curiously, ¡°Why are you dressed like this? Shouldn¡¯t you wear your uniform?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t need to wear that,¡± Lu Wenwen said as she drove onto the highway. Yang Guang asked, ¡°What are we going to do?¡± ¡°To arrest a criminal.¡± Lu Wenwen explained, ¡°I was told this morning that a wanted criminal entered the territory of the county. This person is brutal and clever. The regular police will be injured if they go to arrest him, so this becomes my mission.¡± She turned to look at Yang Guang. ¡°I felt it was boring to go to the mountains alone. Therefore, I called you. You won¡¯t mind, right?¡± ¡°Of course not.¡± Yang Guang thought to himself, ¡°Since I¡¯m already here, I have to help you no matter what happens.¡± The car left the county and headed south. After some time, it entered a mountainous area. Yang Guang had never been to this place before, so he didn¡¯t know what it was called. Seeing this place was surrounded by mountains and forests, he felt the environment was very quiet. At the moment, the car was driving on a dirt road, which was not only bumpy but also very narrow. Seeing this, Yang Guang asked curiously, ¡°How did you know the criminal would be in such a place?¡± ¡°You¡¯ll know later. There are the ruins of an ancient temple in the mountains. The criminal is most likely to go to the ruins, so we¡¯re going there to wait for the criminal,¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°I see.¡± Yang Guang nodded and continued, ¡°You did the right thing to ask me to come with you. This place is too remote. You¡¯re a lady. I would be really worried if you came alone.¡± ¡°Actually, it¡¯s nothing. It¡¯s not like I haven¡¯t been to this kind of place before. I just felt it would be boring to come here by myself.¡± Lu Wenwen laughed. The car drove on for some distance. The mountain road ahead was destroyed by floodwaters, so Yang Guang and Lu Wenwen couldn¡¯t go any further. Lu Wenwen stopped her car at the roadside and took out a travel bag from the back seat. Yang Guang quickly took it and asked, ¡°What¡¯s this?¡± ¡°I bought some food and drinks. I don¡¯t know when the criminal will appear, so we have to prepare for a long battle,¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°Well, there¡¯s actually no need for that. In this season, there are a lot of things to eat and drink in the mountains.¡± Yang Guang smiled and carried the travel bag on his back. Yang Guang and Lu Wenwen walked along the rugged mountain road. It was almost noon when they arrived at a col. This area was surrounded by barren mountains, and the situation was completely different from before. Outside was a dense jungle with weeds growing everywhere, but the plants here were very sparse and there were a lot of mountain rocks in strange shapes. Yang Guang could already see the ruins of the temple. There were only a few walls standing and they were in a terrible state from the rain and wind. Yang Guang guessed that they would collapse sooner or later. ¡°What kind of temple is that? Why was it built in the harsh mountains?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°I don¡¯t know either. I only knew it was an ancient temple built at least a few hundred years ago,¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°The temple is so dilapidated. I don¡¯t understand why the criminal would come here.¡± Yang Guang said as he looked at the surroundings, ¡°We had better not wait inside the ruins. If the criminal sees us, he won¡¯t come there.¡± ¡°Yeah, I think so too.¡± Lu Wenwen nodded and pointed in a direction. ¡°What do you think of the mountain top on the opposite side? It has a very good view. If you stand there, you can see the ruins and the surroundings clearly.¡± ¡°It¡¯s good, but it doesn¡¯t provide shelter from the wind and rain. If it rains heavily, we¡¯ll be in trouble,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°I saw the weather forecast before I left. It will be sunny for the next two days. Don¡¯t worry,¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°All right. Let¡¯s go there.¡± Yang Guang nodded and walked up the slope. The two of them went up the mountain one after the other and soon reached the mountainside. Then, Yang Guang found something strange. He pointed in a direction and said, ¡°Wenwen, look! This barren area is round and it¡¯s actually centered around the ruins of the temple.¡± ¡°Yeah. It¡¯s really strange,¡± Lu Wenwen said and then looked up at him. ¡°Could it be that there¡¯s something radioactive? Is that why there aren¡¯t any plants growing around?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know. After we catch the criminal, we can go and study it.¡± Yang Guang looked at the rock under his feet. The sun was shining brightly, and he could clearly feel the heat under his feet. He looked at Lu Wenwen and asked, ¡°The sun is very big and hot. Aren¡¯t you afraid of getting tanned without trees to provide shade?¡± ¡°I¡¯m not afraid of that. I put on sunscreen before we set off.¡± Lu Wenwen sighed. ¡°But the weather is too hot. We can¡¯t just stand in the sun like this, right?¡± ¡°Let¡¯s see if there¡¯s a place to give us shade.¡± Yang Guang walked forward. He laughed when he reached the top of the mountain. This mountain was a great divide. There was not a single weed on one side of the mountain, but there were a lot of tall trees on the other side of the mountain. Standing under the tree, Yang Guang could see the ruins on the opposite side and he wasn¡¯t exposed to the sun. This place was a perfect choice. Besides, the ground was covered in weeds, which made it soft to step on. Yang Guang could even lie down on it and rest. ¡°The two sides of the mountain are completely two different worlds.¡± Yang Guang put down his backpack. Lu Wenwen immediately took out a large folded blanket from her bag, placed it on the ground, and said, ¡°In this way, we can have a good rest.¡± ¡°Yeah. It would be more comfortable.¡± Yang Guang nodded and sat down. Lu Wenwen sat down beside him, turned around to take a look, and said, ¡°What a pity! We can¡¯t see the ruins when we sit down.¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay. We can stand up and take a look at the ruins once in a while. If the criminal comes all the way here, he will probably stay for a while,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Yeah. The criminal must have a purpose for coming here. I guess he will stay for a while too.¡± Lu Wenwen nodded. Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Remember to not act rashly when you see the criminal. Let me handle him.¡± ¡°No way.¡± Lu Wenwen shook her head. ¡°This is my mission. I¡¯m very grateful that you came with me, but I can¡¯t let you help me capture him.¡± ¡°You¡¯re a lady.¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Just leave it to me. The only thing you need to do is stand at the side and cheer for me.¡± Lu Wenwen rolled her eyes when she heard that. ¡°You¡¯re looking down on me by saying that.. So what if I¡¯m a lady?¡± Chapter 177 - Wait on the Mountain Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was speechless. Seeing that she was not convinced, he could only nod and say, ¡°I didn¡¯t mean to look down on you. I just want to take care of you!¡± ¡°No need. This is my job. You don¡¯t have to bother.¡± After saying that, Lu Wenwen continued, ¡°Just wait and see me defeat them!¡± ¡°Okay, okay. You¡¯re the best.¡± Yang Guang smiled as he said. Then he took out a water bottle from his backpack and drank some water. Sitting under the shade of a tree, they stood up from time to time to take a look at the ruins at the foot of the mountain opposite them. As time passed gradually, the two of them talked a lot. Yang Guang got to know more about Lu Wenwen. He knew that she was born into a military family. Her parents were both soldiers, and she had a brother who still served in the army. They had such a great time chatting with each other that they were not aware of the sunset. Yet, it was not dark. Yang Guang and Lu Wenwen could still see the surrounding things under the light of the sunset¡¯s afterglow. It would take some time before the sky got completely dark. Realizing that it was already late, Yang Guang got up and looked at the mountain opposite them. He found that the ruins were still the same as before, with nobody around. So he turned to Lu Wenwen and said, ¡°It looks like we are going to spend the night here.¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay. I have already expected this situation,¡± Lu Wenwen said with a smile. ¡°Aren¡¯t you afraid that we might come across the wolves at night?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Why would I be scared of that? You are here! Even if the wild boars come to us, you can deal with them, right?¡± Lu Wenwen said with a smile. ¡°Yeah, that¡¯s true!¡± Yang Guang nodded and touched the scimitar on his waist, saying, ¡°I have made full preparations.¡± ¡°But there must be a lot of mosquitoes on the mountain. Fortunately, I have brought some mosquito repellent. You can apply some later.¡± As Lu Wenwen spoke, she took out a bottle of mosquito repellent from her backpack. ¡°Wow, you are really thoughtful.¡± Yang Guang smiled. He took it and poured a few drops on his hand. As he wiped his exposed skin, he asked, ¡°It¡¯s a pity that we can¡¯t make a fire. It would be great if we could do it.¡± ¡°Why? It¡¯s not cold.¡± Lu Wenwen asked in confusion. ¡°We don¡¯t need it to get warm, but we can barbecue something to eat. Wouldn¡¯t it be nice?¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Oh, don¡¯t even think about it. Others will see us if there¡¯s a fire here.¡± Lu Wenwen said. The sky gradually darkened. There was a moon and countless stars in the sky. With the light of the moon and the stars, they found the surroundings were visible, and they could even vaguely see the ruins in the opposite valley. However, they couldn¡¯t see there clearly. Therefore, Yang Guang and Lu Wenwen got up and carried their things away from the top of the mountain. Then, they finally came to a rock cluster at the mountainside. Sitting here, they were close to the ruins a few hundred meters ahead and could see there clearly. As long as someone appeared, they could see them right away. Yang Guang and Lu Wenwen sat down and looked at the starlight in the sky. The atmosphere was quite romantic. Lu Wenwen turned to look at Yang Guang and suddenly asked in a low voice, ¡°By the way, Yang Guang, you have a girlfriend, don¡¯t you?¡± ¡°Hmm, what?¡± Yang Guang was stunned for a moment when he heard such a question. Then, he thought about it and said, ¡°I guess so.¡± ¡°Oh, I guess it¡¯s Xu Ling, right?¡± Lu Wenwen asked. ¡°Uh, no.¡± Yang Guang looked embarrassed. He thought to himself, ¡°No matter what, Xu Ling and I were indeed quite intimate, but she never admits that she is my girlfriend.¡± It was the same for Mu Xiaowan. Although they had intimate contact, they were not a couple yet. Lu Wenwen was curious. She continued to ask, ¡°Then, who is it?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t ask. We haven¡¯t confirmed our relationship yet.¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Oh really? Xu Ling, Xiaowan, and Yingxue. Don¡¯t tell me that you like them all?¡± Lu Wenwen asked. ¡°Uh, well, look at the stars in the sky. They¡¯re really round!¡± Yang Guang changed the topic and pointed to the sky. Lu Wenwen lost for words. This was a little clumsy. He actually said that the stars were round? He couldn¡¯t see such a big moon? Lu Wenwen knew that Yang Guang was embarrassed, but at the same time, she also understood what was going on. ¡°He is really a lady killer!¡± she chuckled and thought to herself. The two of them stood side by side. Lu Wenwen did not ask any more questions. Instead, she looked at the ruins opposite her and gradually fell into a trance. After an unknown period, Lu Wenwen suddenly stretched and then yawned. ¡°I¡¯m a little sleepy,¡± she said. ¡°Then sleep for a while. I¡¯ll keep an eye on it,¡± said Yang Guang. ¡°Okay.¡± They had agreed to take turns guarding at night, so Lu Wenwen did not stand on ceremony. She lay down on a flat rock to take a nap. The rock was covered with a damp-proof cloth, so it wouldn¡¯t be uncomfortable to lie on it. Moreover, she was not going to sleep for a whole night on it, so it wouldn¡¯t be a problem to make do with it. Not long after lying down, Lu Wenwen fell asleep. Yang Guang turned around and took a glance at her, then smiled. This girl was really unguarded. She was sleeping so soundly that she didn¡¯t even care that there was a man beside her. However, Yang Guang didn¡¯t have any ill intentions towards her. He felt that Lu Wenwen was quite cute, so he quickly turned his head to stare at the ruins across from him. As time passed by, it came to midnight. Feeling that his waist and legs were numb from sitting, Yang Guang got up and stretched himself. Then, he heard Lu Wenwen¡¯s voice, ¡°Oh! I¡¯ve slept for a long time. Why didn¡¯t you wake me up?¡± ¡°I saw you sleeping so soundly, so I didn¡¯t have the heart to disturb you.¡± Yang Guang said as he sat down and continued, ¡°It looks like that guy is probably not going to show up.¡± ¡°Yes, he is! He¡¯ll definitely come!¡± Lu Wenwen sat up and looked at the ruins, then said to Yang Guang, ¡°Why don¡¯t you go to sleep? I¡¯ll watch it for the rest of the night.¡± ¡°Are you not sleepy now?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°No, not anymore!¡± Lu Wenwen nodded and said without turning her head. ¡°Okay, then I¡¯ll lie down and rest for a while.¡± After saying that, Yang Guang lay down on the rock. In fact, he was not sleepy at all. However, he knew that Lu Wenwen was an emulative girl. It would make her unhappy if he insisted on doing it for her. Therefore, he would better let her do it. At this moment, Lu Wenwen was sitting with her back facing him. Yang Guang was lying on the rock and looking at her back. For some reason, he couldn¡¯t help but want to peek at Lu Wenwen. So, he used the Method of Divine Eyes. As a result, he naturally saw the underwear inside her sportswear. It was a small vest with a long back, and there were even cartoon characters embroidered on it. Yang Guang almost laughed out when he saw it. He did not expect Lu Wenwen to be childlike. She was actually wearing cartoon underwear? Could it be that her size was small as a child? His thoughts ran wild for a moment. Then, Yang Guang quickly stopped using the Method of Divine Eyes and did not peek at her anymore. Soon, Yang Guang had a thought. ¡°Oh right, if something is hiding in the ruins, won¡¯t I be able to find it through the Method of Divine Eyes?¡± He just didn¡¯t know if he could find anything buried deep underground since he had just learned the rudiments. He was far away from reaching the highest realm. Thinking of this, he turned his head to look at the rock beside him. Then he used the Method of Divine Eyes.. Chapter 178 - A Strong Enemy Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang saw that the rock suddenly became translucent. The lines and cracks inside, as well as some mineral impurities, were all revealed! Judging from the depth, he felt that he could see about one or two inches inside the rock. However, if he tried any deeper, he wouldn¡¯t be able to see through it. Yang Guang sighed. As expected, his level wasn¡¯t high enough. There was no way for him to see through such a large rock. In addition, he also understood that it was impossible to use the Method of Divine Eyes to find out what was buried deep underground. He could only wait for this realm to increase in the future. Turning back to look at Lu Wenwen, he saw that she was sitting straight, maintaining a motionless posture while staring at the opposite side. Yang Guang could not help but sit up and ask, ¡°Aren¡¯t you tired?¡± ¡°I¡¯m fine. I used to stand for two hours when I was in the military posture.¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°Well, you¡¯re good at it.¡± Yang Guang looked at the other side and then checked the time. ¡°It¡¯s already two o¡¯clock in the morning. The sun will rise in two hours. It seems that person is not coming!¡± ¡°Yes, he will definitely come!¡± Lu Wenwen said affirmatively. ¡°Alright, then I¡¯ll wait with you. I¡¯m not sleepy anyway.¡± Yang Guang said as he sat up straight and looked across. After another half an hour, he suddenly noticed that Lu Wenwen¡¯s body was swaying. Turning around, he realized that she had actually closed her eyes and was taking a nap! Yang Guang chuckled silently and thought, ¡°No matter how stubborn you are, you¡¯re just a little girl after all. Now you can¡¯t hold on anymore!¡± Seeing that Lu Wenwen was about to fall down, he reached out and pulled her. Then, Lu Wenwen leaned over and lay on Yang Guang¡¯s shoulder. She did not wake up. Instead, she even mumbled comfortably and hugged Yang Guang¡¯s arm. Then, Yang Guang felt her soft body on his arm. ¡°Her size is not small at all!¡± Yang Guang thought to himself and gulped at the same time. Feeling the curves of Lu Wenwen¡¯s body, he did not forget to stare at the valley across from him. He maintained his posture without moving an inch. Just like that, the sky in the east had turned bright after a while. Only then did Lu Wenwen slowly wake up. When she opened her eyes, she found herself hugging Yang Guang, and his arm was buried in her chest. Lu Wenwen was stunned. However, when she saw Yang Guang looking straight ahead, she did not say anything, even though her heart beat wildly. She softly took her hand away from Yang Guang¡¯s arm. ¡°You¡¯re awake?¡± Yang Guang turned to look at her. ¡°I think you¡¯ve slept well this time.¡± ¡°I fell asleep because I was too bored. You didn¡¯t even talk to me!¡± Lu Wenwen glared at him and found an excuse for herself. Yang Guang didn¡¯t argue. He smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s going to dawn soon. I don¡¯t think you made the correct judgment. He probably won¡¯t come.¡± Lu Wenwen wasn¡¯t so sure now. She looked at the foot of the mountain and then looked around, saying, ¡°That¡¯s impossible. According to the intelligence report, he should have already appeared.¡± ¡°There¡¯s always a contingency. And here it is!¡± Yang Guang smiled. Just as he finished speaking, he saw someone flash by from the corner of his eye. The man was heading towards the ruins at a fast speed. Lu Wenwen also noticed that. She immediately followed Yang Guang and held her breath as she stared at that guy. The sky gradually brightened, and they could see things more clearly. It was obvious that the person had already reached the ruins. Yang Guang and Lu Wenwen looked at each other. Then, they got up and rushed down the mountain together without picking up their stuff on the ground. The man crouched down after entering the ruins, not realizing that someone was rushing over. Yang Guang did not know what that person was doing inside. When Yang Guang and Lu Wenwen reached the foot of the mountain and were about a hundred feet away from the ruins, they each took out their weapons. Yang Guang held a scimitar in his hand, while Lu Wenwen held a pistol in her hand. As he saw her weapon, Yang Guang¡¯s eyes immediately widened. However, there was no time to hesitate. In order to prevent that person from escaping, Lu Wenwen had already rushed into the ruins. Then, she shouted, ¡°Freeze!¡± Yang Guang followed closely and entered. He saw the face of the man in black. That was a muscular man who was more than 6 feet tall. He had a big beard and looked fierce. The man was stunned when he saw Yang Guang and Lu Wenwen. He threw away the shovel in his hand and slowly stood up, asking, ¡°Who are you?¡± Yang Guang was stunned when he saw that the other party was not a bit nervous. Instead, this man was very calm even when facing the gun. At this moment, Lu Wenwen said in a deep voice, ¡°We are the police. Tian Shoushan, you are under arrest!¡± Hearing what she said, Tian Shoushan did not show any surprise. Instead, he smiled faintly and said, ¡°What? Just the two of you? Are there no more people in the police station? You two look inexperienced.¡± ¡°Stop talking nonsense and surrender immediately. If you dare to resist, I won¡¯t be nice!¡± Lu Wenwen said loudly. ¡°Oh, really?¡± Tian Shoushan smiled slightly and raised his eyebrows. At the same time, he disappeared! ¡°F*ck!¡± Yang Guang realized that something was going to happen. With a loud cry, he immediately stood in front of Lu Wenwen. At the same time, his vision turned dark. Tian Shoushan had already appeared before him, and his palm was about to hit Yang Guang. ¡°Bang!¡± Yang Guang was struck in the chest. Immediately, he felt a sharp pain in his internal organs, then a bloody taste in his throat! As he retreated, he swallowed the mouthful of blood that had rushed up to his throat. Then, he took a deep breath. This guy named Tian Shoushan was strong, and he was also quite fast! No wonder he couldn¡¯t be captured by ordinary policemen. Ordinary people couldn¡¯t deal with this guy at all. ¡°Bang!¡± With a gunshot, Lu Wenwen fired at Tian Shoushan. But unfortunately, the bullet only hit his shadow. This guy had already dodged at a fast speed. Seeing her shot missed, Lu Wenwen stomped her foot and put the pistol back into her waist. Then, she rushed forward with bare hands. Yang Guang saw the situation and quickly followed. However, he heard Lu Wenwen shout, ¡°Don¡¯t come over! I¡¯ll deal with him myself!¡± ¡°What? Come on!¡± Yang Guang was speechless. He thought to himself, ¡°What kind of situation is this? Why are you still so aggressive?¡± Lu Wenwen had been in a fight with Tian Shoushan after rushing forward. It was a fierce battle. Although Lu Wenwen was thin, she was not at a disadvantage. Yang Guang was kind of surprised to see it. Besides, Tian Shoushan did not expect that either. As he punched, he said, ¡°Hey, not bad! No wonder they sent you to capture me!¡± He still had the strength to talk, but Lu Wenwen¡¯s eyes were wide open in anger, and she could only keep silent. In comparison, Tian Shoushan still had a slight advantage. Seeing this, Yang Guang narrowed his eyes and thought to himself, ¡°I can¡¯t just stand here and watch. She could get injured when she gets exhausted, or any accident happens.¡± Therefore, he secretly became alert and prepared to support Lu Wenwen at any time.. Chapter 179 - The Green Light Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After a few dozen consecutive punches and kicks, Tian Shoushan suddenly let out laughter as he said, ¡°Lady, I don¡¯t have time to waste on you. Let me send you to hell!¡± As soon as he finished speaking, his palm suddenly turned crimson red. Seeing this, Yang Guang shouted, ¡°Stop!¡± As he spoke, he quickly approached Tian Shoushan with his scimitar. His slash was so powerful that Tian Shoushan had no choice but to retreat and dodge the blade. As he got away, Yang Guang turned to look at Lu Wenwen. He saw that her breathing was rapid as her chest was heaving up and down. Obviously, she was tired. Hence, he quickly said, ¡°Alright, you¡¯ve done your best. You don¡¯t have to risk your life for a piece of trash. Leave him to me!¡± ¡°I can do it.¡± Although Lu Wenwen still insisted orally, she didn¡¯t move her feet. Yang Guang smiled and didn¡¯t say anything. He turned to look at Tian Shoushan and said, ¡°Hey, you hit me just now, and I almost vomited blood. Do you know it?¡± ¡°Of course! I¡¯m surprised that you are still alive. It seems like you are not bad, kid!¡± Tian Shoushan said. ¡°I¡¯m better than that!¡± Yang Guang sneered, then he gritted his teeth and said, ¡°Tian Shoushan, I¡¯m going to finish you today. Watch this!¡± As soon as he finished his words, he charged forward with his scimitar. Tian Shoushan¡¯s eyes flashed with a hint of fear. He was not afraid of Yang Guang, but the scimitar in Yang Guang¡¯s hand. As an experienced killer, he recognized that the scimitar was definitely not an ordinary one with only a glance at the shiny blade. Therefore, his gaze was fixed on it. He stared at it, afraid of being cut. In the end, he did not expect Yang Guang to just use his scimitar as a cover. He did not use it to attack Tian Shoushan when he reached in front of Tian Shoushan. Instead, he sneaked a kick out from under his feet! ¡°Crack!¡± With a crisp sound, Tian Shoushan sucked in a breath of cold air. ¡°You¡¯re cheating!¡± Tian Shoushan took a deep breath. When he felt that his leg bones were broken, he immediately became furious. However, it was useless. Anger could not help with his injuries. After the sharp pain hit him, he fell to the ground with a plop. Yang Guang sneered and turned to look at him. ¡°Why? Do you believe everything I say? Are you simple-minded?¡± ¡°You b*stard!¡± Tian Shoushan knew that he had been careless. He thought that when the palm had hit this young man¡¯s chest, even if he did not die, he would be severely injured and would not have much strength to attack him. The young man could still wave his scimitar to attack him because he was risking his life for the last try. However, Tian Shoushan did not expect this young man was not seriously injured. Moreover, he could even make such a fierce kick! That was the so-called ¡°to fail miserably in a very easy task¡±. In fact, Yang Guang was indeed badly injured just now. However, in just a moment, the spiritual energy in his body had wrapped around his injured organs and quickly healed them. Therefore, in a short period, his injuries had mostly healed. Because of this, he took advantage of Tian Shoushan¡¯s carelessness and succeeded in his attack. After defeating Tian Shoushan and making him unable to resist, Yang Guang proudly turned around and looked at Lu Wenwen. ¡°What¡¯s next? Kill him or take him away?¡± ¡°Take him away. This guy has a lot of confidential information. Bring him back and interrogate him.¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°Okay.¡± Yang Guang nodded and walked towards Tian Shoushan. ¡°Be good. If you cooperate, you¡¯ll suffer less when you leave the mountain later!¡± As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Tian Shoushan reveal a cunning smile. While he was confused, Yang Guang saw him suddenly clench his teeth. Immediately, Tian Shoushan¡¯s eyes rolled back. ¡°F*ck!¡± Yang Guang was stunned. He stood up straight in shock. He had no idea what had happened. Tian Shoushan clenched his teeth. His body trembled violently. Soon, white foam appeared at the corner of his mouth. He looked like he was going to die. When Yang Guang was about to do something to treat him, he grabbed his wrist and realized that he had just died! The remaining pulse showed that Tian Shoushan had been poisoned to death. And the poison was obviously hidden in his teeth. After he had crushed it, the poison had entered his body. Now, nobody was able to save him. ¡°How could it happen?¡± Yang Guang was dumbstruck. He turned around to look at Lu Wenwen. Her face was also gloomy when she saw it. As Lu Wenwen frowned and squatted down, she searched Tian Shoushan¡¯s body but found nothing of value. Looking at the fake ID card on the ground and a few pieces of banknotes, Lu Wenwen sighed. ¡°This guy was ruthless to himself.¡± ¡°Yeah, to keep a secret, he even gave up his life.¡± Yang Guang said and immediately asked, ¡°What¡¯s the background of this guy?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t ask for now. Let¡¯s see what he was digging just now.¡± ¡°Alright.¡± Yang Guang stood up and turned to look at the place where Tian Shoushan had dug a pit. When he came close and stood still, Yang Guang¡¯s eyelids twitched. Subconsciously, he activated the Method of Divine Eyes. Then, Yang Guang was surprised to see a magical scene. Just a moment ago, it was only a pit on the ground. Now, he saw a faint green light emitting from the soil. After stopping using the Method of Divine Eyes, he saw the pit on the ground as it was just now. After repeated tests, Yang Guang found that he could see the light only when he activated the Method of Divine Eyes. He immediately understood. At this moment, Lu Wenwen looked at him curiously. ¡°Why are you standing there in a daze?¡± ¡°Nothing. I just feel that there must be something down here.¡± Yang Guang said. Then he picked up the shovel that Tian Shoushan threw away and began to dig on the ground. He had thought that the thing would be buried very shallowly, or else he would not have seen the light. Yet, he did not see anything special after digging for dozens of inches and making the pit much bigger. In the end, Lu Wenwen wanted to give up and said, ¡°It¡¯s so deep and there¡¯s still nothing. Why don¡¯t we just forget about it?¡± ¡°That won¡¯t do!¡± Yang Guang was sweating as he dug. He felt that the green light was getting brighter. Now he was getting excited, so he immediately rejected it. Then, he picked up the shovel and dug hard. When it was almost three feet deep, the tip of the shovel met with a hard object and made a clanging sound! Yang Guang and Lu Wenwen both got excited. Then, Yang Guang squatted down and dug in the soil. It took him some effort to pull out a rectangular box. He weighed it in his hand. It felt like it weighed about 10 kilograms. The box was so dark that it was impossible to tell what material it was made of, but definitely a kind of metal. At that moment, Yang Guang, who had used the Method of Divine Eyes, saw that the box was already covered in a bright dazzling green light. The thing was inside, but they had to wait until the box was opened. So Yang Guang put the box on the ground, found the clasp, and then gently opened it. It took some effort to open the rusty box, but Yang Guang had great strength, and the box was opened soon. Then, as they saw the thing inside, Yang Guang and Lu Wenwen looked at each other and asked at the same time, ¡°What is this?¡± Chapter 180 - Poison for Plants Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio It was a cylindrical black object inside the box. After a look, Yang Guang picked it up and weighed it with his hands. It was not very heavy, and it didn¡¯t feel like metal. Instead, it felt like wood. Lu Wenwen had keen eyes. She found that there seemed to be words at the bottom of the object, so she told Yang Guang, ¡°Look at the words here! Poison for Plants?¡± ¡°What?¡± Yang Guang was a little confused. He looked at her and asked. ¡°It explains what this object is. This is a special character from ancient times,¡± Lu Wenwen explained. ¡°Then, it¡¯s a kind of poison?¡± Yang Guang scratched his head, and then an idea flashed through his mind. ¡°Does it mean that this thing is the reason why there are no plants around?¡± ¡°Literally, it should be. It¡¯s the poison of the plants, and that¡¯s why the surroundings have become a barren mountain.¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°Oh Lord, this stuff is quite powerful. We can¡¯t let the bad guys obtain it. Otherwise, there will be much trouble in the future.¡± Yang Guang said. Hearing this, Lu Wenwen glanced at him and asked, ¡°Do you want it?¡± Yang Guang was stunned first, and then he smiled bitterly. ¡°No way? Can you not take it back? After all, it¡¯s a piece of evidence. It proves why Tian Shoushan came here!¡± ¡°That¡¯s true, but it will be kept in the storage room anyway if I take it back. If it¡¯s useful to you, why don¡¯t I just give it to you?¡± Lu Wenwen said. Yang Guang hesitated. Although he had the intention to take it, he still felt that it was a little inappropriate. Hence, he said, ¡°Thank you. I know you meant good, but I think it would be better for the police to keep it for the time being. It¡¯s a little dangerous to me. I don¡¯t want it to poison all the vegetables in the greenhouse when I take it back.¡± ¡°Oh, that makes sense.¡± Lu Wenwen nodded and didn¡¯t insist. She put that stuff into a sealed bag. After that, she turned to look at Tian Shoushan¡¯s body and said to Yang Guang, ¡°Wait a minute. You stay here. I¡¯ll go get my backpack and come back to deal with the corpse.¡± ¡°No, you stay. I¡¯ll go!¡± Yang Guang thought he should do it like a man instead of a girl. So he left the ruins and went straight to the opposite hillside. At this moment, the sky was filled with a golden glow. And the rays of light had already shone the peak of the opposite mountain. The sun was about to rise. Yang Guang returned to the spot where Lu Wenwen put her backpack and tidied it up. Then, he carried it on his back and slowly walked down the mountain. After around ten minutes, he returned to the ruins. But he saw Lu Wenwen sitting on the ground, her face full of fear. When Lu Wenwen saw Yang Guang, she immediately stood up and threw herself into his arms. Being hugged by a young girl, Yang Guang was stunned. Feeling the softness of her body, Yang Guang asked in surprise, ¡°What happened?¡± ¡°It was horrible!¡± Lu Wenwen¡¯s body was still trembling as she continued, ¡°Just now, the corpse got up!¡± ¡°What?¡± Hearing that, Yang Guang was shocked. He looked up and saw that Tian Shoushan¡¯s corpse was still lying on the ground. However, he was now facing down while he was lying on his back before. Lu Wenwen couldn¡¯t move his body for no reason, so Tian Shoushan must have done it himself. Seeing this situation, Yang Guang hurriedly asked, ¡°What happened? He didn¡¯t hurt you, right?¡± ¡°This guy got up and wanted to pounce on me. I was so scared that my legs went soft and I couldn¡¯t move. But for some reason, his body suddenly fell to the ground again and stopped moving!¡± Lu Wenwen said. As she explained, her two thin arms were wrapped around Yang Guang¡¯s neck. Her whole body was almost hanging on him. Because of feeling her body trembling, Yang Guang found himself aroused. There was some heat like a small flame in his lower abdomen, which was torturous to him. However, at this moment, the first ray of sunlight fell on the ruins and quickly shone on Tian Shoushan¡¯s body. Then, a cloud of thick smoke rose. When the sunlight shone on half of his body, a flame suddenly rose from the corpse. Lu Wenwen forgot about her fear just now. She let go of her arms and looked at it in a daze. Then, she said in shock, ¡°I understand. There are corpse dissolving powders in his body.¡± ¡°What is that?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°It¡¯s a kind of unique drug. It can turn the dead body of human beings into a zombie.¡± Lu Wenwen gulped as she continued, ¡°But this kind of zombie is afraid of sunlight. Once the strong sunlight shines on them, they¡¯ll die.¡± ¡°Then we¡¯re lucky!¡± Yang Guang was a little scared. Then, he looked at Lu Wenwen and said, ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that you would actually be afraid of something even though you seem to be brave.¡± ¡°Come on! I¡¯m a girl anyway.¡± Lu Wenwen blushed and showed a rare shy expression. Then she quickly added, ¡°Don¡¯t tell anyone about this!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I know you don¡¯t want to lose face.¡± Yang Guang chuckled. Then he saw that Tian Shoushan¡¯s body had been burned to ashes. Then he said to her, ¡°It saves you some trouble. You don¡¯t have to burn it anymore. But what¡¯s the background of this guy?¡± ¡°He¡¯s not a good person.¡± Lu Wenwen said and then continued, ¡°Yang Guang, don¡¯t ask too much. I don¡¯t want you to get involved.¡± Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°Why? Is there any more danger?¡± ¡°In short, I don¡¯t want you to get involved too much. I think it¡¯s good for you to live a peaceful life in the village. And I don¡¯t want to break it,¡± Lu Wenwen said. ¡°Oh, so that¡¯s what you¡¯re thinking about. I see!¡± Yang Guang understood and couldn¡¯t help but reach out to touch her head. ¡°Then I have to thank you!¡± he said. ¡°No problem.¡± Lu Wenwen¡¯s face blushed as she looked down at her toes. ¡°But, sometimes you can¡¯t do whatever you want. There¡¯s some situation that you don¡¯t have a choice.¡± Yang Guang said in an old-fashioned manner. After receiving the abilities, he would think about his recent experiences occasionally. He knew that everything started after that. It felt like there was an invisible force that had pushed Yang Guang into a torrent, making him could no longer control where he went. However, Yang Guang did not regret or fear because he did not want to be an ordinary doctor in the village. With his current development, he had gotten to know many girls and had made his sister-in-law and Yaya live a comfortable life. No matter what happened in the future, he would not regret his choice. After Tian Shoushan¡¯s matter was settled, Yang Guang and Lu Wenwen left this barren mountain together and set off on the return journey. After finding the car, Lu Wenwen drove back to the county town while asking, ¡°Yang Guang, are you going back to the village later or staying in the town?¡± ¡°You¡¯re going back to report to your superiors, right? Then I¡¯ll get off halfway and go for Yingxue.¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Alright. I¡¯ll send you there. If you¡¯re not in a hurry, I¡¯ll drive you back home after I¡¯m done,¡± Lu Wenwen said. Yang Guang nodded. ¡°Okay, let¡¯s keep in touch then.¡± After returning to the county town, Yang Guang got off the car at Shengtai Restaurant and went straight to Qi Yingxue¡¯s office. As soon as he entered, Qi Yingxue saw him and stood up with a smile. ¡°You¡¯re just in time..¡± Chapter 181 - Stone Gambling Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was stunned for a moment, then he immediately asked, ¡°What¡¯s up? Is there anything you need me for?¡± ¡°Yes, I¡¯m going on a business trip. Can you come with me?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. ¡°Sure, where are you going?¡± Yang Guang immediately agreed without thinking. If there was anyone he could do anything for without any hesitation, Qi Yingxue could definitely be ranked first. ¡°There¡¯s an exhibition of kitchen products in the south. I want to go there and take a look. We¡¯ve used the stuff in my restaurant for a few years, and I think it¡¯s time to upgrade them.¡± After answering, Qi Yingxue continued with a smile, ¡°You know what? You don¡¯t have to go with me. I was just asking casually. If I don¡¯t have time, I can go by myself.¡± ¡°How can that be?¡± Yang Guang quickly shook his head when he heard that. ¡°I¡¯ll be worried about your safety if you go there alone.¡± He meant that Qi Yingxue was so beautiful that she would likely attract some bad guy who had an ill intention to her. Understanding his concern, Qi Yingxue felt her heart filling with warmth. Then, she nodded and said, ¡°Thank you. Actually, it won¡¯t take long. We¡¯ll set off today and come back tomorrow night or the day after.¡± ¡°No problem. I have nothing else to do these few days anyway.¡± Yang Guang smiled. Qi Yingxue reminded him, ¡°You¡¯d better make a call and tell them.¡± ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll call Sister Xiaolian and Xu Ling.¡± Then, Yang Guang called and told them about the trip. At the same time, Qi Yingxue had booked the flight tickets. Before setting off, she noticed that Yang Guang¡¯s waist was bulging. Qi Yingxue asked, ¡°What did you bring with you?¡± ¡°This!¡± Yang Guang took out his scimitar and said, ¡°I accompanied Wenwen to catch a bad guy yesterday, and I brought it with me.¡± ¡°Fortunately, I found it now. You can¡¯t bring this weapon onto the plane. Just leave it here.¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Alright! I won¡¯t use it on the trip anyway.¡± Yang Guang smiled and left the scimitar in Qi Yingxue¡¯s office. Then, they went downstairs and drove straight to the airport. The airport in the county town was not big. There were only two or three flights every day to a few destinations. They needed a connecting flight to arrive at the city in the south. It was Yang Guang¡¯s first time taking a plane, so he was very excited. Even though he spent a lot of time waiting to get on the plane, he was still excited. Everything was new to him. Moreover, his first flight was of a high standard. Qi Yingxue had specially booked two first-class seats, which were much more capacious and comfortable than the economy class seats. With a strong sense of novelty, Yang Guang experienced what it was like to fly for the first time in his life. After the plane took off, he looked out of the window curiously. He saw through the clouds that the buildings on the ground had become tiny. This kind of visual impact was quite shocking. Qi Yingxue did not talk much. Instead, she looked at Yang Guang with a smile the whole time. Her eyes were filled with tenderness. It was not hard to judge whether a girl liked someone or not, for the way she looked at that person would show the answer. Qi Yingxue was not aware of the feelings in her eyes when she looked at Yang Guang, but the people around her could sense it clearly. Nothing happened on the way. After a connecting flight, they successfully arrived at their destination. It was already afternoon. Yang Guang, who had been full of energy, felt a little tired after the journey all the way here. Therefore, the two of them immediately found a hotel to check in when they reached downtown. Of course, they booked two rooms. Qi Yingxue was still holding on to her bottom line and would not give Yang Guang another chance. They returned to their rooms to wash up. After resting for a while, Yang Guang knocked on the door of Qi Yingxue¡¯s room in the evening. After entering the room, he asked with a smile, ¡°Yingxue, do you feel better after a break?¡± ¡°Not bad. You¡¯re dressed up. Didn¡¯t you rest?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. ¡°I laid down and had a rest for a while. But I don¡¯t think I can sleep until tomorrow morning, so I¡¯m asking you if you want to go out for a walk.¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Sure. It¡¯s my first time here too. I want to take a look around.¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Great! There¡¯s a place I want to go.¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Oh? Where?¡± Qi Yingxue was stunned for a moment and then asked. ¡°I just checked online. This city is close to Southeast Asia, and it¡¯s the gathering place for raw jade in our country.¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Uh, you mean, you want to watch the stone gambling?¡± Upon hearing Jade, Qi Yingxue understood. Yang Guang chuckled and nodded. ¡°Exactly. Let¡¯s go and have a look, shall we?¡± ¡°But I heard that it is very dependent on luck. Moreover, it costs a lot!¡± Qi Yingxue said this and then looked at Yang Guang, trying to persuade him not to gamble, ¡°I know that you need lots of money, but you can¡¯t rely on gambling. That¡¯s not the right path at all!¡± Yang Guang quickly said with a smile, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯m not going to gamble. I¡¯m just curious. Of course, it¡¯s okay to try my luck, but I don¡¯t have much money with me. So I¡¯m definitely not going to spend much money.¡± ¡°That will be good!¡± Qi yingxue heaved a sigh of relief and continued to exhort, ¡°No matter what, you can¡¯t gamble. Otherwise, I won¡¯t talk to you anymore!¡± ¡°I won¡¯t.¡± Yang Guang smiled. After a quick preparation, they left the hotel. The weather in the south was humid and hot. Although it was already evening, Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue still felt a wave of heat when they walked out. They took a cab and headed straight for the raw jade trading market. Yang Guang was a little apprehensive. When he found out that people could gamble on stones here, the first idea that occurred to him was to use his Method of Divine Eyes. Yet, he was not sure if it would work on the gambling because he was inexperienced. If the method worked, it would be much easier to settle the problem of the 30 million dollars. Everyone knew that if one picked the right piece of raw jade, he could instantly become rich even if he was a pauper. After the cab arrived at the market, Yang Guang paid and got off with Qi Yingxue. The market here opened at 10 am every day and closed at 9 pm. It was only 6 pm, and they still had plenty of time. They ran the business for such a long time for the sake of the tourists who visited here. Not only did the professional players like stone gambling, but many ordinary people were also quite interested in it. Therefore, when Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue walked close to the market, they immediately saw the bustling crowd. It was even noisier inside the market. Because there were many people, Yang Guang subconsciously held Qi Yingxue¡¯s hand. Although Qi Yingxue was stunned, she did not break free. She let him hold her hand as they walked into the market. There were stalls one after another. Each one was piled with jade stones of various sizes for people to choose from. Yang Guang used the Method of Divine Eyes to glance at a few female tourists before he began to get down to business. At this moment, he saw the gray stones changing colors. Among these stones, some were still gray, some were white, and some were white with a hint of light green in them. And the least common color was green.. Chapter 182 - The Competition Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio On the way here, Yang Guang had crammed for some knowledge about jade. He learned the grade of the jade, and something about the glassy species, the canutillos, and so on. According to his knowledge about jade and what he saw, he could know these stones better. The Method of Divine Eyes could indeed help him identify which stones had jade inside. Those stones that emitted white light were all ordinary ones, so they would not be worth too much. Basically, one would not lose money if he bought them. In fact, he could even earn a little. However, stone gamblers were all here for the sake of good jadeite. The white jade stones were definitely not what they wanted the most. They only wanted to obtain the green ones. The white ones with a faint green light that Yang Guang saw would be worth more. As Yang Guang held Qi Yingxue¡¯s hand, her body was quite close to him. There were so many people coming and going. It was crowded in the market. Actually, Qi Yingxue didn¡¯t like such a crowded place. But seeing that Yang Guang was observing carefully, she didn¡¯t say anything. Instead, she just stayed closer to Yang Guang. not wanting to have any physical contact with others. ¡°How come there¡¯s not any good jade in such a big market?¡± Yang Guang thought to himself. After browsing in a few shops, he realized that there were only a few stones with a little green. He did not see the real ones that were full of green. Hence, he was immediately disappointed. He had wanted to earn a lot of money, but in the end, he found that they were all ordinary jade stones. What a pity! Could it be that he did not have the chance to make a fortune this time? After a while, a voice in a loudspeaker suddenly came from the noisy market. ¡°Everyone, may I have your attention, please? Now be quiet. The stone gambling competition tonight is about to begin!¡± When the tourists heard this, they all stopped in their tracks. Then, they saw the screens of a few large televisions hanging in the market light up. Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue looked at each other, feeling curious. There was a stone gambling competition here? It sounded quite fresh to them. What was that like? Just as they thought of this, a middle-aged man holding a microphone on the screen smiled and said, ¡°I believe that many of the tourists who are here for the first time today do not understand the stone gambling competition. It¡¯s alright. Let me introduce the rules to everyone!¡± The host was very professional. His speech was clear, and his mind was quick. After a few sentences, he had explained clearly what the competition was like. There was no need to register for the competition. Anyone who had bought a jade stone in the market could immediately cut it with a machine. And he would be considered as participating in the competition. When the stone was cut, the experts would appraise the jade inside. As for the winner, it would depend on how many times of money the competitors had finally earned, compared to the cost they had spent on the stone. The one who could make the most money would be the champion of the competition. The bonus for the champion was not too much. It was only 2,000 dollars. It was actually a promotional method in the market. In this way, the curiosity of the tourists would be satisfied, and everyone would like to buy more stones for the competition. After introducing the rules, the host said, ¡°The first jade stone tonight is bought by Mr. Tang. It costs him 1,000 dollars. Everyone, let¡¯s see whether Mr. Tang is lucky tonight!¡± As soon as he finished speaking, the scene shifted to a stone with the size of a fist. Yang Guang took a look and was surprised to find that he could not see through it with the Method of Divine Eyes. He was momentarily stunned. Then, he understood that he had to see the actual object in front of him. It was impossible to tell whether there was anything inside the rock through the television screen. At this moment, Qi Yingxue said beside him, ¡°That is so expensive! Such a small stone can cost 1,000 dollars.¡± ¡°Yes, it¡¯s indeed quite pricy.¡± Yang Guang nodded and continued, ¡°But if there¡¯s jade inside, then it¡¯s different.¡± ¡°Ah, I see.¡± Qi Yingxue nodded and immediately understood. The stone-cutting machine was not in the market because its noise was too loud. If they used it in the open air at night, the surrounding residents would definitely complain. Therefore, the machine was placed in a specially made soundproof house. The camera followed the stone into the room. After the stone-cutting man fixed it, he started the machine. The sound of the camera was cut off to avoid disturbing the audience. Everyone only saw the sharp disc of the machine cutting down the stone easily. When the machine stopped, the sound returned to normal. ¡°According to my experience, Mr. Tang could earn some money, though it is not big!¡± The host looked at the stone with its skin cut off, then he turned around and handed it to an old man behind him. The old man looked like in his seventies. But he was hale and hearty, and his eyes were exquisite. After looking at it for a while, he nodded. ¡°This jade stone is estimated to be worth 2,000 dollars!¡± ¡°Alright! Congratulations, Mr. Tang! You¡¯re the first person to participate in the competition tonight. Your result is not bad. Your capital has doubled!¡± As the host spoke, the staff beside him quickly recorded the data. At this moment, Yang Guang heard someone beside him snicker. ¡°Double? Is there any need to record it? That¡¯s nothing!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. How can it be considered stone gambling if it hasn¡¯t increased by more than 10 times?¡± the others agreed. Yang Guang also felt that there was no point in playing like this, so he turned his head and wanted to take a look again. What if he could pick up something? However, the host had just handed the skinned jade stone to the tourist, he immediately said loudly, ¡°I know that everyone will not be satisfied after seeing it. It¡¯s alright. The next one is the biggest attraction tonight and even this year. The 85 kilogram stone, which is known as the King of the Stones from the Precious Jade House has just been sold. Let¡¯s take a look and see if there¡¯s anything good in it!¡± As he spoke, three staff members were carrying a large stone over. When the tourists saw it, their eyes all widened. It was such a large stone. There must be something good inside, right? And what did the host say? It was the King of the Stones? Could it be that there was a high-quality jade inside? The host seemed to be able to read minds. At this moment, he smiled. ¡°I know that everyone must be curious. Why is it called the King of the Stones? To be honest, it is because the owner of the Precious Jade House treats it as the most important treasure of his shop. He won¡¯t sell it for less than 300,000 dollars!¡± ¡°Wow, that costs a lot!¡± The tourists who heard this widened their eyes and let out exclamations. They were basically amateurs. In fact, jade stones worth more than 300,000 dollars were not rare, especially for professional stone gamblers. It was quite common. So, the host was acting for the atmosphere. It was understandable to exaggerate a little. The one who bought it was a man. He was tall and strong. A golden chain as thick as a thumb hung around his neck. When the staff fixed the stone, the host asked, ¡°How should I address you, sir?¡± ¡°My surname is Wan. You can call me Mr. Wan,¡± the tall man said. ¡°Mr. Wan, you spent more than 300,000 dollars on this stone today. You must be very hopeful that there will be high-quality jade inside, right?¡± the host asked. Mr. Wan rolled his eyes.. ¡°Aren¡¯t you talking nonsense?¡± Chapter 183 - Practice Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The host looked a little embarrassed. He smiled and said, ¡°Yes, yes, I was wrong!¡± Then he continued, ¡°Then I wish Mr. Wan good luck tonight!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I won¡¯t lose!¡± Mr. Wan waved his hand. ¡°Start!¡± The stone-cutting machine roared, and the sound was cut off in an instant! At this time, the tourists who were watching TV held their breaths. Although it wasn¡¯t their own stone, people still wanted to see if there was really a priceless emerald inside! A layer of stone skin was quickly peeled off, and the white stuff inside was revealed. The staff cleaned it up. Then, the photographer pointed the camera at it. A man knowing the ropes immediately exclaimed, ¡°Wow, there¡¯s something inside!¡± His shout made everyone¡¯s eyes widen. At this moment, Mr. Wan snatched the microphone from the host¡¯s hand. ¡°Everyone, did you see that? There¡¯s green inside!¡± Yang Guang¡¯s eyes also widened. He vaguely felt that there was a little green under the white, but he couldn¡¯t see it clearly! He thought to himself, ¡°If only I was beside the stone-cutting machine! I will know what¡¯s inside with only a glimpse!¡± ¡°Cut off this for me. Cut off that too!¡± Mr. Wan was obviously an expert. He drew a few strokes on the excess parts of King Stone and prepared to cut out the green part. When the host saw it, he hurriedly said, ¡°Mr. Wan, it¡¯s a waste to cut off stone like this. You¡¯ve already seen the green. Why don¡¯t you let an expert take a look at it and estimate the price? I don¡¯t think it is a wise choice to cut off the excess parts!¡± ¡°If I stop now, the valuation won¡¯t be high. It¡¯s only twice the price!¡± Mr. Wan glared at him. ¡°What I want is the champion of this year¡¯s Stone Gambling Game. I must surpass that guy whose stone was worth 15 times the price last month!¡± ¡°Oh, okay. Then I understand!¡± The host showed an expression of dawning comprehension. Then, he said to the master of stone-cutting, ¡°Then please continue!¡± The stone was fixed again. The machine was turned on and the stone was cut according to Mr. Wan¡¯s strokes. The large stone at the corner fell to the ground. Although there was not much jade inside, the tourists still felt that it was wasteful. They thought to themselves, ¡°He is such a nouveau riche. There is more or less some jade on it. I can cut it off and make it into a ring surface. How could he throw it away like that!¡± After a quick cut, the stone was only the size of a volleyball. Its entire body was milky white, but when one shone the flashlight on it, a faint green color could be seen. Holding the stone, Mr. Wan curled his lips and came to the old man. ¡°Expert, estimate the price!¡± The old man nodded. He took the jade and carefully looked at the cracks and transparency. Then, he used the flashlight and magnifying glass to check it carefully for a while. He raised his head and said, ¡°It is definitely King Stone. What is inside, if I¡¯m not mistaken, should be Holy Emerald. It is so precious!¡± The current valuation of this stone far exceeded the purchase price. Mr. Wan made a great fortune! Then, the old man looked at Mr. Wan and said, ¡°Congratulations, your stone is worth more than 6,000,000 dollars!¡± ¡°That¡¯s great!¡± Mr. Wan was beaming with joy. He was extremely happy! The tourists all had envious looks on their faces. They all felt that Mr. Wan was so lucky to get this stone. 300,000 dollars turned into 6,000,000 dollars in the blink of an eye! However, even though they were envious, they knew that they didn¡¯t have the audacity that Mr. Wan possessed. They also didn¡¯t have 300,000 dollars to buy that King Stone. Yang Guang was the same. He thought to himself that stone gambling was definitely a quick way to make money. However, it was a pity that he didn¡¯t have the money to buy the raw stone even though he discovered that there were good things in it! The host shouted, ¡°The Stone Gambling Game continues. Currently, no customers bought the raw stones. Everyone can choose raw stones from the market. Let me remind you that our stone-cutting is free!¡± Hearing that there were no more stones to be cut, the crowd instantly dispersed! Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue were the same. They continued to wander around. Coincidentally, just as they reached a stall, the owner and his staff carried out a basket of stones from behind and directly dumped them on the ground! Hearing the crash, Yang Guang stopped! Then, he looked at the stones on the ground. They were all round and looked like they had just been fished out from the river. They were still wet. Then, Yang Guang looked up and asked, ¡°How much are these stones?¡± ¡°They are for beginners¡¯ practice. 30 dollars each!¡± the owner said. ¡°Young man, buy one. If a white jade was in it, it would be worth ten times the price. Maybe you can¡¯t get the champion tonight, but the runner-up will also get a bonus of 1,000 dollars!¡± the staff said. ¡°Really? There is jade in them?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°It depends on luck!¡± the staff said with a smile. ¡°Since they are for practice, the chances of getting jade must be very low. Are you fooling people?¡± Yang Guang asked. Qi Yingxue also agreed with this view. She nodded and said, ¡°This is to cater to the tourists¡¯ curiosity. 30 dollars is not much anyway. It is just a test of luck! If you are lucky, you can get the jade.¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Yang Guang smiled and turned to the owner. ¡°It¡¯s obvious that they were just fished out from the river. Isn¡¯t 30 dollars a little expensive?¡± ¡°Although they were fished out from the river, they were not from the river of our place. They were dug out from the river of the old pit and then they were transported here!¡± The owner defended himself and then said, ¡°Young man, I see that you are interested. How about this? Tell me your ideal price, and I¡¯ll sell you one!¡± ¡°Great! Great!¡± Yang Guang looked down at the pile of stones. Then, he said, ¡°I¡¯ll give you 15 dollars at most!¡± An unnoticeable joy flashed across the owner¡¯s eyes, ¡°Okay, deal! You can pick any stone you want!¡± 15 dollars was already a lot. He was bluffing just now because he could see that Yang Guang was a tourist coming from other places, who did not know anything about stone gambling at all! In the eyes of an expert, these stones were only worth 2 dollars each. If one spent 500 dollars buying a pile of them, perhaps one or two pieces of jade could be found. Then it could be said that he or she broke even. Businessmen pursued profits. The owner took out these stones with the purpose of bluffing people who did not know about stone gambling to earn money. Yang Guang smiled and squatted down to rummage through the stones. Then, he picked up an oval-shaped one. ¡°This looks like a goose egg. I¡¯ll take it!¡± Qi Yingxue was stunned. ¡°You really want to do stone gambling?¡± ¡°15 dollars isn¡¯t much. Just treat it as a game!¡± Yang Guang chuckled. Then, he took out 15 dollars from his pocket and handed it to the owner. ¡°So, is it done?¡± The owner took the money. ¡°Yes! Since there¡¯s no one at the stone-cutting machine, you can go over and try your luck!¡± ¡°Of course, I will try!¡± Yang Guang smiled and held Qi Yingxue¡¯s hand. ¡°Let¡¯s go, Yingxue. Let¡¯s see whether I am the lucky one today!¡± ¡°When can you grow up?¡± Qi Yingxue felt that he was just messing around. Then, she sighed. However, she still followed him to the stone-cutting machine. The two of them came to the spot. The staff stopped them, telling them to register.. When they heard that Yang Guang spent 15 dollars on the raw stone, the two staff members could not help but look at each other with a meaningful smile! Chapter 184 - Icy Species Jadeite Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The reason why they exchanged meaningful smiles was that the two staff members could tell that Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue were tourists who knew nothing about stone gambling. Few of the stones dug out from the river had jade inside. How could there be emerald? Yang Guang did not care about others¡¯ opinions. After registering, he went to the stone-cutting machine under the guidance of the staff members. Qi Yingxue did not take it seriously. She just wanted to have some fun. She thought to herself, ¡°If he wants to play, then let him play. After all, stones are not worth much!¡±! Coming to the side of the stone-cutting machine, the host looked at the stone in Yang Guang¡¯s hand. Then, he immediately said with a smile, ¡°This gentleman is also here to gamble on stones?¡± ¡°Yes, I want to try my luck!¡± Yang Guang said with indifference. ¡°I advise you to give up. This stone is valueless. If you really want to participate in the Stone Gambling Game, you¡¯d better buy a raw stone of better quality!¡± the host said. Yang Guang was stunned when he heard that. He looked at him and asked, ¡°Why? Are there any rules about the price? The cheap stone can¡¯t be cut? If you don¡¯t allow me to cut the stone, why did you let me register?¡± ¡°That¡¯s not what I mean. It¡¯s just my suggestion. I don¡¯t want to waste everyone¡¯s time!¡± The host laughed. Yang Guang sneered inwardly. He thought to himself, ¡°Don¡¯t be so smug. When you cut it off, you will know how wrong you are!¡± When he bought the stone just now, he saw this piece of stone among a pile of stones! The reason why he was so confident was that other stones emitted no light, but this piece of stone emitted a dark green light. Yang Guang was sure that there was good stuff in this stone, so he pretended to bargain with the stall owner and managed to buy it for 15 dollars. At the same time, he also noticed that there were still some leftover scraps on the ground after Mr. Wan cut King Stone. One of them was quite big. So Yang Guang looked at the host. ¡°Competition is competition. No matter what kind of stone I take, no matter how much money I spent, you have the duty to cut it for me, right?¡± Then he pointed at the scraps on the ground. ¡°Are you selling this stone? I want to cut an extra piece!¡± ¡°Ah?¡± The host was dumbfounded. His eyes widened. ¡°You want this scrap too?¡± ¡°Trash is cheap!¡± Yang Guang shrugged. ¡°Haha, you¡¯re interesting. If you want my trash, I¡¯ll give it to you! You don¡¯t have to pay for it!¡± Mr. Wan did not leave. He thought that he was going to win tonight, and the championship of this year¡¯s Stone Gambling Game would also be his. Therefore, he stayed to watch the show. Yang Guang¡¯s appearance really made him laugh. He thought to himself, ¡°Where did this layman come from? Why did he want this trash?¡± Yang Guang turned around and glanced at Mr. Wan. He shook his head and said, ¡°I can¡¯t take it for free. I will pay!¡± ¡°That piece of trash has no value at all. If you really want it, then give me 15 dollars!¡± Mr. Wan said with a smile. ¡°Okay, no problem!¡± Yang Guang took out 15 dollars and handed it over. Then, he picked up the piece of scrap that had a side cut out. ¡°The deal is done. It¡¯s mine now!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Let¡¯s cut it open and see!¡± Mr. Wan had a mischievous smile on his face. He was ready to watch a good show. The host was also speechless in his heart, but he still maintained a polite smile on his face. ¡°Sir, which stone are you going to cut first?¡± ¡°The big one.¡± Yang Guang casually handed the piece of scrap in his hand to the stonecutter. The stonecutter earned his salary by cutting the stone. So let¡¯s cut it! Just as he was about to fix the scrap, Yang Guang said, ¡°You don¡¯t need to peel it. Just cut it from here!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± The stonecutter nodded. He would do whatever the guest wanted. So he quickly fixed the stone according to the requirements of Yang Guang and pressed the start button. Only then did Yang Guang know how loud the noise of the stone-cutting machine was! The noise was so loud that it could deafen the listeners! Therefore, he and Qi Yingxue covered their ears. The people around them saw it. Immediately, they started laughing at them secretly. As expected, he was a rookie. He couldn¡¯t even stand this little bit of noise. However, the people¡¯s disdain only lasted for half a minute because the stone-cutting machine quickly cut open the stone and revealed a piece of emerald! When the stone was taken down, everyone present was stunned! Mr. Wan¡¯s eyes were wide open. The host opened his mouth, but he did not make a sound. The stonecutter was still rather calm. He looked at Yang Guang and asked, ¡°Do you want to make another cut?¡± ¡°Go ahead, make another cut from this side!¡± Yang Guang gestured. ¡°Okay!¡± The stonecutter re-fixed that piece of trash and then started the machine again. Everyone held their breath. No one dared to look down on Yang Guang anymore. Because everyone saw that there was a piece of high-grade emerald in that inconspicuous trash! In the blink of an eye, the stone was cut according to Yang Guang¡¯s request. The eyes of the stonecutter lit up! This piece of emerald was precious! It was priceless! The raw stone was a scrap, so the emerald that was cut out was not big. It was about the size of a palm, and its thickness was only about 0.8 inches. As for this piece of emerald, 80% of it was translucent green. It was the standard type of icy species jadeite! When the icy species jadeite was handed to Yang Guang, the stonecutter¡¯s eyes were filled with admiration. ¡°Congratulations!¡± ¡°Thank you!¡± Yang Guang had a faint smile on his face and turned to look at the stunned host. ¡°Can we ask the old master to estimate the value?¡± ¡°This¡­¡± The host looked blank and turned to look at the old man beside him. The old man was calm. He had seen this kind of thing in stone gambling before. Although it rarely happened, it still occurred a few times in the past. The old man looked at Mr. Wan without showing any emotion. He saw that Mr. Wan¡¯s face was livid. It was obvious that his feelings were very complicated! Then, the old man looked at Yang Guang, ¡°Young man, you are so lucky!¡± ¡°Thank you!¡± Yang Guang smiled and handed over the icy species jadeite in his hand, ¡°How much is it worth?¡± The old man held it in his hand and said, ¡°It has good quality. It could be used to make a bracelet and a few ring surfaces. This material is worth 130,000 dollars!¡± Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°The value is not high.¡± The old man was also dumbfounded. ¡°It has already increased by 8,000 times. Are you still not satisfied?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t have any interest in multiples. I just feel that the money is not enough,¡± Yang Guang said. Hearing what he said, the old man was a little speechless. He looked at Yang Guang and said, ¡°Young man, don¡¯t be too greedy. You are already very lucky. You only spent 15 dollars buying icy species jadeite that is worth 130,000 dollars!¡± Then, he added, ¡°If you feel that the price is low, you can reprocess this material. Go back and find a master to process it into a bracelet and ring surfaces. If you sell them, you can probably get 160,000 dollars!¡± ¡°Oh, that¡¯s not much!¡± Yang Guang shook his head and looked at the stone in his hand. ¡°It seems that even if this stone has a better emerald in it, it still does not worth much!¡± ¡°What? Are you crazy? It¡¯s such luck to get icy species jadeite. Do you think there are emeralds everywhere?¡± Mr. Wan said snappily.. Chapter 185 - Canutillos Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Mr. Wan had mixed feelings. He was both envious of Yang Guang and annoyed with himself. Anyway, Mr. Wan knew he was wrong about the stone. He wasn¡¯t even interested in it at the very beginning because he didn¡¯t expect that the stone would be so valuable. However, he was okay with Yang Guang getting it. After all, the stone was only worth about 200,000 dollars, so Mr. Wan didn¡¯t like it that much. What made him speechless was Yang Guang¡¯s attitude. Yang Guang already got an icy species jadeite, yet he was still not satisfied. Looking at the pebble-like stone in Yang Guang¡¯s hand, Mr. Wan sneered, ¡°Do you think you are that lucky? If this stone is an emerald, I¡¯ll eat all the stuff that¡¯s left over.¡± ¡°Then you will have indigestion.¡± Yang Guang chuckled and turned to look at the stonecutter. ¡°Please help me cut this stone.¡± ¡°Okay. How do you want me to cut it this time?¡± the stonecutter asked. ¡°Be careful. Just cut it gently from here.¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°No problem.¡± The stonecutter fixed the stone and then looked at the host. ¡°Can I start now?¡± ¡°Yes, you can.¡± The host looked at Yang Guang in surprise. Seeing Yang Guang¡¯s calm expression, the host suddenly felt a little strange. The stonecutter cut the stone like Yang Guang said in less than a minute, and the machine stopped working. The first thing the stonecutter did after that was to rub his eyes. Then, he raised his head and looked at the crowd with a stunned expression. ¡°It is canutillos!¡± ¡°What?¡± Everyone was shocked. Even the old man who seemed very calm stood up. Without waiting for the stone to be taken down, the crowd came forward to take a look. The part of the stone that was cut was about the size of a thumb, but what was revealed on the stone was emerald green and it was almost transparent. Seeing this, the old man was the first to gasp. ¡°It is glassy species jadeite.¡± ¡°Wow!¡± Everyone was in an uproar and looked at Yang Guang. Qi Yingxue¡¯s eyes widened in shock. She didn¡¯t know much about emerald, but she heard that glassy species jadeite was the best kind of emerald and its price was very high. ¡°Young man, I¡¯ll pay a million dollars for this stone. Sell it to me,¡± Mr. Wan said anxiously after he looked at the stone. Yang Guang looked at Mr. Wan and said, ¡°Wait a moment. Are you still going to eat the stuff that¡¯s left over?¡± Mr. Wan was stunned for a moment. Then, he smiled and said, ¡°You must be kidding. I can¡¯t even chew that stuff.¡± ¡°Then why did you say it?¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and then looked at the old man who said it was glassy species jadeite. ¡°Sir, is my stone worth a million dollars now?¡± ¡°Of course.¡± The old man nodded and continued, ¡°The part of the stone I can see is clearly canutillos. I suggest that you sell the stone now.¡± Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°Why?¡± ¡°This is a gamble. If you ask the stonecutter to keep cutting the stone and find that other parts of the stone aren¡¯t all emeralds, the stone won¡¯t be worth 200,000 dollars then,¡± the old man said. ¡°I see.¡± Yang Guang understood that and said to the stonecutter, ¡°Please cut the stone from the bottom now.¡± Everyone was dumbfounded. Why didn¡¯t Yang Guang play by the rules? Nobody could understand why he wouldn¡¯t stop after seeing glassy species jadeite. If other parts of the stone weren¡¯t all emeralds or they were just white jades, the price of this stone would be greatly reduced. However, the stone was Yang Guang¡¯s. No matter what others thought, they had no right to stop Yang Guang. Everyone present held their breaths. Ever since Yang Guang got an icy species jadeite, the market had quieted down. Everyone was staring at the screen, including the merchants. The stonecutter used the machine to cut another part of the stone. After he wiped off the dirty water and powder, he immediately said in surprise, ¡°It¡¯s still emerald!¡± The bottom of the stone was also emerald. ¡°I¡¯ll pay two million dollars for the stone.¡± Mr. Wan¡¯s eyes were glowing. Yang Guang ignored him and said to the stonecutter, ¡°Please cut the stone from the sides of the stone.¡± ¡°Well¡­¡± The stonecutter looked at Yang Guang in surprise. ¡°Young man, you had better stop now. This stone can already be sold at a high price.¡± ¡°Well¡­¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Actually, I want to remove all the covers of the stone because I think there is a complete emerald inside the stone. Then I can sell it at a higher price.¡± ¡°You¡¯re really daring!¡± The stonecutter smiled bitterly and said, ¡°There is no need to remove all the covers. I will cut the stone from its sides like you said and you can know the size of the emerald inside.¡± ¡°Thank you so much,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°My pleasure.¡± After the stonecutter said that, he adjusted the position of the stone and started the machine again. Not long after that, the sides of the stone were revealed and they were also emeralds. Therefore, this stone about the size of a goose egg had a complete emerald inside. The emerald was only a little smaller than a goose egg. The merchant who sold the stone to Yang Guang regretted it. The merchant turned around to look at his assistant angrily. ¡°We really suffered a big loss this time.¡± ¡°Who knows there would be a complete emerald inside the stone?¡± The assistant had an aggrieved look on his face. ¡°Sir, how much is this stone worth now?¡± Yang Guang held the stone and asked the old man. The old man swallowed and said, ¡°I can¡¯t estimate the price of this stone now.¡± ¡°Huh? Why?¡± Yang Guang asked in confusion. ¡°This emerald looks very good and its shape is perfect. It can be turned into an emerald in the shape of a water droplet with a little modification. And then people can directly wear it around their necks.¡± The old man pondered for a moment and then said, ¡°Just sell this to the highest bidder.¡± ¡°I¡¯m willing to pay three million dollars for this. Can you sell it to me?¡± Mr. Wan¡¯s eyes were red as he asked sincerely. However, just as Mr. Wan finished speaking, someone rushed in from outside and said loudly before Yang Guang could answer, ¡°I¡¯m willing to pay eight million dollars for this. ¡°Ah?¡± Everyone present was stunned and turned to look at that person. It was an ill-looking middle-aged man wearing glasses. The man got close to Yang Guang, held up his phone, and said to Yang Guang, ¡°Sir, Miss Yang wants to speak to you.¡± ¡°Who is Miss Yang?¡± Yang Guang was stunned and looked at the man¡¯s phone screen. Then, Yang Guang¡¯s eyes widened. Qi Yingxue went over to take a look and was also stunned. ¡°Hello, I¡¯m Yang Ruoyun.¡± A clear voice sounded. When the crowd heard it, they started to whisper to each other. ¡°You¡¯re the big star, Yang Ruoyun?¡± Yang Guang asked with his eyes wide open. ¡°I¡¯m not really a big star. I¡¯m just an actress.¡± Yang Ruoyun smiled and said, ¡°My assistant sent a picture of your emerald to me and I like it very much.. Can you sell it to me?¡± Chapter 186 - Robbery Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang had never thought that he would be able to talk to a celebrity. Although Yang Ruoyun was being humble, she was actually a big star. Not only did she sing well, but her acting skills were also top-notch. Yang Guang heard that Yang Ruoyun even received an award for best actress a while ago.¡± Yang Guang did not know much about the entertainment industry, but it was a digital era now. All sorts of information was spreading around. Yang Guang would occasionally hear some news even if he wasn¡¯t interested in it. Therefore, he was not that ignorant. He recognized Yang Ruoyun the moment he saw her. Now he heard that she wanted to buy his emerald, Yang Guang smiled and said, ¡°I was going to sell this stone anyway. Of course I¡¯m willing to sell it to you.¡± ¡°I¡¯m going to attend a film festival next month and I lack a piece of jewelry. My assistant saw that you had a very good emerald in the market, so he sent a picture of it to me and I like it very much.¡± Yang Ruoyun smiled and asked, ¡°How about selling it to me for eight million dollars?¡± ¡°I can¡¯t say no to eight million dollars!¡± Yang Guang was overjoyed. He regretted that he sold the icy species jadeite cheap, but he did not expect that this insignificant stone could be sold at such a high price. Yang Ruoyun was also very happy that Yang Guang agreed to sell the emerald to her. She nodded and smiled, ¡°Okay. I will let my assistant take care of the rest. The money will be transferred to your account by this time tomorrow at the latest.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Yang Guang nodded. He returned the phone to the middle-aged man. When Yang Guang turned around and saw that everyone was looking at him with envy, he chuckled and looked at Qi Yingxue. She seemed both happy and impressed. ¡°Sir, since you agreed to sell the emerald to Miss Yang, let¡¯s exchange our contact details first, shall we?¡± The middle-aged man¡¯s words awoke Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue, who were staring at each other. Yang Guang quickly turned around and said, ¡°All right. You don¡¯t have that much money now, right?¡± ¡°Yes. I need some time. But don¡¯t worry. The money will definitely be transferred to your account by tomorrow,¡± the middle-aged man said. ¡°Okay. There¡¯s no rush.¡± Yang Guang smiled and exchanged his contact details with the middle-aged man. Then, Yang Guang turned to look at the host who was petrified. ¡°Am I the champion of the Stone Gambling Game tonight?¡± ¡°Yeah, that¡¯s right.¡± The host came back to his senses and thought to himself, ¡°He paid 15 dollars for the stone and sold it for eight million dollars. That¡¯s amazing!¡± Yang Guang probably set a record that no one could ever break. Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Since the champion is me, what are you waiting for then? I remember that you have prize money for the champion.¡± ¡°Ah?¡± The host was stunned. ¡°You already have eight million dollars. Why are you still thinking about the 2,000 dollars?¡± ¡°What do you mean? 2,000 dollars is a lot of money. It can be used to buy many things,¡± Yang Guang said. The host thought Yang Guang was right, so he quickly ran to the back. After a while, the host brought back a suitcase. ¡°Mr. Yang, this is a gift from our market. Your emerald is worth a lot, so it¡¯s better for you to put it in a safe place. Also, the certificate and the prize money for the champion in the Stone Gambling Game are inside the suitcase.¡± ¡°You¡¯re so thoughtful. Thank you.¡± Yang Guang smiled and took the suitcase. Then, he turned to look at Qi Yingxue. ¡°Sister Xue, shall we go back?¡± ¡°Yeah.¡± Qi Yingxue was overjoyed. She thought that Yang Guang was only here to have fun, but she did not expect that he would actually earn 8,200,000 dollars by selling two stones. This was simply too amazing. When she thought that he already earned a quarter of 30 million dollars, Qi Yingxue was even happier. As the two of them left, many people watched their backs until they could not see Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue anymore. Yang Guang¡¯s story was shared around in the market, and the merchant that sold the stone to Yang Guang was ridiculed by others. Walking on the street, Qi Yingxue held Yang Guang¡¯s arm. There was a breeze. The two of them chatted and laughed, feeling very relaxed. But they didn¡¯t expect that some people were targeting them. After Yang Guang got the top-notch emerald, those people had evil thoughts. Seeing that Yang Guang took his emerald away from the market, those people quietly followed behind Yang Guang. Those people were not in cahoots. There were many people who wanted to get the emerald and they were overwhelmed by the eight million dollars. Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue chatted and laughed as they walked on the street. Just as they were about to return to the hotel, someone took out a small knife and rushed to them. ¡°What?¡± At first, Yang Guang was very relaxed. However, when he saw a man walking over with a frightening expression, Yang Guang realized that something was wrong. The man walked in front of Yang Guang, showed his knife, and lowered his voice, ¡°Hurry up and give me the suitcase.¡± ¡°Are you trying to rob me?¡± Yang Guang was stunned for a moment before he sneered, ¡°You¡¯re really crazy. How dare you rob me?¡± ¡°Give me the suitcase, or I¡¯ll take your life,¡± the man with a hood over his head said. ¡°I won¡¯t give you the suitcase,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°All right.¡± The man raised his knife and wanted to stab Yang Guang. Nevertheless, the man failed. Not only did he fail to stab Yang Guang, but he also felt his chest was hit. Then, things in front of the man were gradually out of sight. He was kicked away and dropped in the green belt. The man didn¡¯t come alone. He still had two accomplices. When they saw this, they immediately pulled out their knives and charged at Yang Guang. ¡°You guys are so dead!¡± Yang Guang held the suitcase in his hand, stood in front of Qi Yingxue, and stared at the two people. The two people were muddleheaded. Without thinking about how their companion was kicked away, they charged forward with their knives. They got close to Yang Guang and were knocked over by him. They could not even get up from the ground. Yang Guang turned around to look at his surroundings and realized that there were still a few people looking in his direction. They looked fierce and unfriendly. Yang Guang squinted his eyes and looked at those few people as he said in a deep voice, ¡°If you think you are good at fighting, you can come over and try to defeat me.¡± When those people heard that, they looked at each other and immediately turned around to leave. Only then did they understand that Yang Guang dared to walk on the street with the emerald worth eight million dollars because he was strong. Otherwise, Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue would have hailed a cab and left as soon as possible. After those people walked away, Yang Guang smiled at Qi Yingxue. ¡°Sister Xue, they didn¡¯t scare you, did they?¡± ¡°No. I knew you could handle it.¡± Qi Yingxue smiled. ¡°Of course I can.¡± Yang Guang chuckled, ignored the three people on the ground, and reached out to flag down a cab. Nothing happened on the way. Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue returned to the hotel soon. Qi Yingxue did not say anything, and Yang Guang was playing dumb. The two of them entered the room together. As soon as the door closed, Yang Guang put his arm around Qi Yingxue¡¯s waist. ¡°Don¡¯t do this.¡± Qi Yingxue wanted to resist Yang Guang, but her body was limp. Hence, she could only verbally protest to him.. Chapter 187 - Qi Yingxues Thoughts Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Qi Yingxue said she didn¡¯t want it, but her body was telling a different story. In the end, she was directly carried into the bedroom by Yang Guang. It was deep into the night. Qi Yingxue, who was lying in Yang Guang¡¯s arms, said with a faint voice, ¡°We shouldn¡¯t be like this¡­¡± ¡°Yingxue, I don¡¯t know if you have any concerns or if you have something that you can¡¯t tell me. In any case, in my opinion, you are my woman. I will love you forever!¡± Yang Guang held her by the shoulders. Qi Yingxue sighed in her heart and didn¡¯t say anything else. She originally thought that she could suppress her feelings and maintain a distance from Yang Guang ever since that night. But now, it seemed that as a woman, she couldn¡¯t resist the person she loved deeply. So now, Qi Yingxue thought to herself, ¡°Forget it. I can¡¯t get rid of fate. Then, at the final stage of my life, being able to be with Yang Guang is the best gift. I have no regrets.¡± Thinking of this, she turned around and put her arms around Yang Guang¡¯s waist tightly, laying her head against his chest. The two of them hugged each other and spent a warm beautiful night together. When Yang Guang woke up the next morning, he looked at the person sleeping soundly in his arms. Her long eyelashes were fluttering slightly. Yang Guang still felt like he was in a dream. If it wasn¡¯t for the warmth of Qi Yingxue and the faint fragrance of her body, all of this would seem to be too surreal. Yang Guang stared at her blankly for a while. Qi Yingxue slowly woke up. Seeing Yang Guang looking at her, she smiled and said, ¡°Good Morning.¡± ¡°Good Morning.¡± Yang Guang gazed deep into her eyes. In the end, he could not suppress the passion and kissed her gently on the forehead. Qi Yingxue could feel the strong bond between them. They didn¡¯t need to say it out loud. Having enjoyed the intimate moments after waking up, Qi Yingxue freed herself from Yang Guang¡¯s arms and asked gently, ¡°What do you want to eat in the morning? I¡¯ll go buy it.¡± ¡°No, you stay here. I¡¯ll go buy the breakfast!¡± Yang Guang hurriedly got out of bed and said with a smile. ¡°Buying breakfast is men¡¯s duty. Women can have some rest. Let me do my job!¡± Hearing his words, Qi Yingxue did not insist. She only smiled sweetly. After Yang Guang left, she began to seriously think about a problem. Yang Guang was the man she loved most in the world. Therefore, she felt that if she could not live a long life, she had to think of a way to arrange his future life! In particular, she had to find a suitable partner for Yang Guang! Mu Xiaowan, Xu Ling, He Yu and Lu Wenwen appeared in her mind. She suddenly felt a little conflicted and didn¡¯t know who was the right one! This was because Qi Yingxue felt that these girls all seemed to be quite suitable for Yang Guang. Moreover, they seemed to like him too! ¡°This is really a worrying problem!¡± Qi Yingxue sighed and got up to go to the bathroom. By the time she got out of the shower, Yang Guang had already brought back some local food for breakfast. During breakfast, Qi Yingxue looked at Yang Guang. She couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°If you had to choose between Xiaowan and Lingling, who would you pick?¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Yang Guang almost choked on the dumpling in his mouth. After forcing himself to swallow it, he looked at Qi Yingxue in shock. ¡°Yingxue, what are you talking about?¡± ¡°You and I can¡¯t get married, so I want to help you find a perfect wife,¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°You and I can¡¯t get married? Why?¡± Yang Guang was speechless. Then, he smiled bitterly. ¡°You¡¯re so stubborn and refuse to tell me the reason. But I think that no matter what the difficulty is, we can overcome it!¡± ¡°Let¡¯s not talk about this. Tell me the one you love! Xiaowan, Lingling, He Yu or Wenwen?¡± Qi Yingxue looked at him with a serious look. Yang Guang was helpless. Then, he said, ¡°I like them all!¡± ¡°Oh¡­¡± Qi Yingxue rolled her eyes at him, and then said seriously, ¡°Don¡¯t be unreasonable. I¡¯m asking who you like the most!¡± Yang Guang said, ¡°Yingxue, don¡¯t test me!¡± Then he changed the topic, ¡°What time is your exhibition today? Do you want me to go with you?¡± Qi Yingxue said, ¡°No need. Don¡¯t you have to go get the money? I can go alone!¡± She still wanted to continue asking, but Yang Guang¡¯s phone suddenly rang. She was helpless. She could only watch Yang Guang pick up the phone. The person who called was the assistant they saw last night. ¡°Mr. Yang, I¡¯m sorry to disturb you. I hope that I didn¡¯t affect your rest!¡± the assistant said. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I got up early this morning.¡± Then, Yang Guang asked, ¡°You call me at this time. Have you prepared the money?¡± ¡°Yes!¡± The assistant nodded and then said, ¡°I transferred the funds last night. It was finally ready in the morning.¡± ¡°Well, let¡¯s find a place to do the deal.¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Mr. Yang, just tell me your address and I¡¯ll come to you,¡± the assistant said. ¡°Okay! That¡¯s great!¡± Yang Guang smiled and then told him the address of his hotel and room number. The assistant promised to arrive within half an hour, and then hung up. Putting down the phone, Yang Guang looked at Qi Yingxue. ¡°This big star is quite anxious!¡± ¡°Maybe that¡¯s because she likes that piece of emerald too much. She is afraid that you will change your mind.¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and then continued, ¡°You¡¯re really amazing. Just by wandering around the stone gambling market, you easily got eight million dollars!¡± ¡°Haha, it seems that I have good luck!¡± Yang Guang laughed. ¡°You should not get too excited. Such a large amount of income must be checked by the bank. You should pay personal income tax. It should be around 1.6 million dollars, ¡± Qi Yingxue said. Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°That much?¡± But then he smiled and said, ¡°Well, it¡¯s okay if I can get 6.4 million dollars!¡± ¡°You have a good frame of mind!¡± Qi Yingxue smiled and looked at the time. ¡°I¡¯m going to change my clothes first. The person who sends the money will be here later. After you¡¯re done, I should go to the exhibition!¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Yang Guang nodded and watched her enter the bedroom. After a while, Yang Ruoyun¡¯s assistant arrived on time with a bald middle-aged man by his side. After the introduction, Yang Guang found out that this bald man was here to confirm the quality of the emerald. Yang Guang was absolutely confident in his emerald, so he took it out and showed it to the man. After checking it a few times with a flashlight and a magnifying glass, the bald man raised his head. ¡°This emerald is really of the highest quality. It¡¯s a high-grade canutillos. Such a big piece is really a rare find!¡± ¡°That¡¯s great. Then Miss Yang can feel much more reassured!¡± The assistant smiled and took out a check from his bag. He handed it to Yang Guang and said, ¡°This check was written when the bank opened this morning. Mr. Yang, please take a look.¡± ¡°Okay!¡± With excitement, Yang Guang took a look at the check. Then, he was stunned by the number on it! He looked up at the assistant. ¡°It should be eight million dollars.. How could it be more than 10 million dollars? Isn¡¯t it too much?¡± Chapter 188 - Going to the Market Again Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Ruoyun¡¯s assistant smiled. Then, he immediately explained, ¡°Miss Yang promised to give you eight million dollars last night, but considering that you need to pay taxes, she gave you a little more. After deducting the taxes, you can earn a net profit of eight million dollars!¡± ¡°Wow, I did not expect that.¡± Having heard the explanation, Yang Guang let out a sigh. ¡°It¡¯s good to be a celebrity. Earning money is such an easy task!¡± The assistant quickly explained, ¡°There might be some misunderstanding. Miss Yang is indeed very rich, but she didn¡¯t earn her fortune by being an actress. The Yang family runs jewelry business.¡± ¡°Is that so? No wonder she bought my emerald!¡± Yang Guang nodded and handed over the emerald in his hand, ¡°Then the deal is done!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t be anxious. There¡¯s still a transfer contract here. Please sign It, Mr. Yang,¡± said the assistant. ¡°Okay!¡± Qi Yingxue, who had been silent the whole time, reached out her hand to take the contract and looked at it. Then, she nodded at Yang Guang. Yang Guang picked up the pen and signed his name. The assistant put the contract away and then carefully put the emerald into a password box. He got up and said to Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue, ¡°Then we won¡¯t bother you anymore.¡± ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll walk you out!¡± Yang Guang also stood up and sent the two of them out of the hotel room. When the door closed, there was only Yang Guang and Qi Yingxue in the room. The two of them immediately hugged each other happily! There was no need to say anything. They felt each other¡¯s warmth. At this moment, Yang Guang realized how happy he was to have earned eight million dollars! However, after the hug, he immediately said to Qi Yingxue, ¡°Yingxue, I can¡¯t go to the exhibition with you today. I want to go to the market again after I deposit money in the bank!¡± ¡°You still want to gamble on stones? Are you addicted to it?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. ¡°No, I just think it¡¯s a great opportunity. I¡¯ll go and take a look. If I find good stones, I¡¯ll earn more!¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Okay, but remember what I said. Don¡¯t spend too much money!¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Don¡¯t worry about that. I¡¯m not a lunatic!¡± Yang Guang laughed. Seeing that it was getting late, the two of them quickly went downstairs together and then went to do their own things separately. Qi Yingxue always trusted Yang Guang. She knew that he wasn¡¯t the kind of person who always acted on impulse, so she went to the exhibition to look at the kitchen utensils without worry. Meanwhile, Yang Guang found a nearby bank where he could cash the check. Just as Qi Yingxue had expected, the bank immediately invited him to the VIP room for such a large sum of money. Everything went smoothly. After deducting the income tax, Yang Guang got eight million dollars in funds. The vice president of the bank wished that he had a fixed deposit account, but Yang Guang politely refused him. Having left the bank, he got into a cab. He headed straight to the stone gambling market. The emerald that was estimated to be worth 130,000 dollars yesterday had not been sold yet, so after reaching the market, Yang Guang went to a jewelry store and took out the emerald. The shop owner recognized him as the person who got canutillos last night, so he immediately welcomed Yang Guang warmly. Then, he bought the emerald without hesitation. He agreed to pay Yang Guang 130,000 dollars. This time, Yang Guang did not ask for a check or money transfer. Instead, he directly asked for cash. After handing over the emerald, he took a bag of large bills and began to wander around the market. Different tourists visited here every day, but the shop owners were always there. Therefore, after recognizing Yang Guang, many shop owners enthusiastically invited him over to have a look, hoping to sell a few raw stones to him. Unfortunately, most of the stones were glowing white. Occasionally, there was a little green in them, but it was not very eye-catching. Therefore, Yang Guang was not satisfied with their qualities. Usually, after a few glances, he would go to the next shop. After strolling in the market for a while, Yang Guang muttered to himself as he walked, ¡°No way. It is such a big market, and there is actually nothing good. How could it be?¡± Just as he finished muttering, he saw a group of people in front of him. It seemed that they were looking at something. Yang Guang walked over curiously. When he got closer, he heard someone in the crowd talking, but they were speaking in a dialect. He didn¡¯t understand a single word. Then, he looked through the crowd and found that they were actually trading raw stones. That raw stone was even bigger than a basketball. It wasn¡¯t very round, but its entire body was emitting a jade-green light. Yang Guang¡¯s eyes immediately widened when he saw it! He instantly realized that there was something good in the stone, so he listened carefully. Unfortunately, both the buyer and seller were speaking in a dialect, so he still could not understand. Driven by eagerness, Yang Guang nudged a man beside him. ¡°Sir, it seems like there¡¯s an argument inside. What are they saying?¡± ¡°You are from out of town, right?¡± The man sized up Yang Guang and continued, ¡°They are bargaining. The old man wants to sell it for 16,000 dollars. He needs the money to treat his family¡¯s illness, but the shop owner does not agree. He could only give him 8,000 dollars!¡± ¡°Oh, the old man can go to other shops. This shop is not the only option.¡± Yang Guang said. The man was very talkative. He smiled and said, ¡°You don¡¯t know that. The shop owners here have a tacit understanding. Usually, they won¡¯t snatch business from their peers. If the old man can¡¯t sell it for 16,000 dollars here, then he can¡¯t sell it for this price in other shops either. Other shop owners will only give him 6,000 dollars!¡± ¡°Oh, isn¡¯t that bullying?¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°These owners are very smart. They also have a good eye for the stones. If the stone is not worth 16,000 dollars, why should they buy it at a high price!¡± the man said. ¡°That¡¯s true!¡± Yang Guang nodded and didn¡¯t say anything else. But he was thinking. He didn¡¯t know if the owner could see that the stone contained emerald. If the owner didn¡¯t know it, then it was understandable. But if he was aware of its real value, things would be different. What he did was too despicable! How could he only give the old man 8,000 dollars? Thinking of this, he said, ¡°Excuse me.¡± Then, he jostled into the crowd. Reaching the middle, Yang Guang squatted down and touched the stone. He looked at the old man, ¡°How much is this raw stone?¡± ¡°16,000 dollars. I won¡¯t lower my price!¡± Yang Guang nodded and said, ¡°I like this stone. Why don¡¯t you sell it to me?¡± ¡°Hey, young man, how can you snatch my business?¡± The shop owner was unhappy. He didn¡¯t know Yang Guang. The shop owner wasn¡¯t in the shop last night when Yang Guang gambled on the stone, so he didn¡¯t see how Yang Guang shocked everyone. Yang Guang also saw this, so he smiled and said, ¡°Sir, I¡¯m not snatching your business. The highest bidder can get the stone. Isn¡¯t that the rule? If you don¡¯t want to pay 16,000 dollars, I¡¯ll pay.¡± ¡°Young man, you¡¯re a rookie, right? As for this stone, there would only be a little jade in it, so it¡¯s impossible to get emerald from it. 8,000 dollars is already a high price!¡± the shop owner said. Hearing this, Yang Guang was sure that he would get the stone. He smiled and said, ¡°Maybe you are right, but I just like this stone. I am willing to spend much money on it!¡± ¡°You¡¯re obviously doing a good deed. Then you can take it. It can be considered as an act of kindness!¡± the shop owner said. Yang Guang smiled, thinking that the shop owner really didn¡¯t know the real value of the stone! Chapter 189 - Competition Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio However, just as Yang Guang thought that he could get the stone, a man¡¯s voice rose from behind. ¡°25,000 dollars!¡± This voice sounded familiar. Turning around, Yang Guang saw Mr. Wan! Then, his heart sank! It seemed that Mr. Wan was going to compete with him. While Yang Guang was surprised, Mr. Wan squatted down and looked at the raw stone. ¡°Mr. Yang, you really have a keen eye. This stone is of good quality. There¡¯s a high chance that emerald is inside!¡± ¡°Is that so? Are you sure?¡±Yang Guang asked. Mr. Wan chuckled. ¡°Actually, I am not that sure. But I know that the stone you choose must have something good inside!¡± ¡°Alright!¡± Yang Guang immediately understood that Mr. Wan had his eyes on him! Mr. Wan did not know why Yang Guang was so lucky last night. The two stones Yang Guang took both had an emerald inside. Yang Guang must have some particular tricks. Yang Guang nodded. ¡°It seems that no matter how much I pay, you will always pay a higher price.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right!¡± Mr. Wan nodded his head. Then, he said, ¡°I will definitely get the stone you want to buy today!¡± ¡°Sure, I have no objections!¡± Yang Guang sneered. He stood up and said, ¡°Then I¡¯ll give it to you. I don¡¯t want it anymore!¡± Hearing his words, Mr. Wan was dumbfounded. He thought that Yang Guang would increase the price, but unexpectedly, Yang Guang gave it up. Seeing Yang Guang get out of the crowd, Mr. Wan ignored the old man who was selling the raw stone. He stood up and chased after Yang Guang! In the end, the most unlucky one was this old man. The old man originally thought that he could sell his stone for 16,000 dollars or more, but it turned out to be a bargaining chip for their fight. Of course, he was very unhappy! Especially when he saw the shop owner¡¯s mischievous look, the old man became even angrier. He picked up the stone and said, ¡°I¡¯m not selling it!¡± He carried the stone and left. The show was over, so the crowd dispersed. But unexpectedly, Yang Guang, who left just now, turned around and came back. He said to the old man, ¡°Sir, I¡¯ll give you 32,000 dollars for this raw stone!¡± Hearing what he said, the old man was dumbfounded. Mr. Wan, who was following behind Yang Guang, said at this time, ¡°I¡¯ll give you 40,000 dollars!¡± ¡°You¡¯re really going to go against me?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Anyway, I¡¯ve said it. I¡¯ll definitely snatch the stone you want to buy from you!¡± Mr. Wan said proudly. The old man was depressed. Hearing this, he hated Mr. Wan even more. So, he said with a cold voice, ¡°Well. you want to buy it, but I have no intention to sell it to you!¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Mr. Wan was stunned, and his eyes widened. ¡°Sir, my bid is much higher. Sell it to me. You can earn more money. Did you lose your mind?¡± ¡°You are such a troublemaker! If it weren¡¯t for you, I would have sold my stone long ago!¡± The old man glared at him. Then, he turned to Yang Guang and said, ¡°Young man, you don¡¯t need to give me 32,000 dollars. I¡¯ve kept this stone at home for 20 years. I was not willing to sell it. I can see that you¡¯re very sincere. I only need 16,000 dollars, so I¡¯ll sell it to you at this price!¡± Yang Guang immediately laughed when he heard that! This was great. Mr. Wan wanted to make trouble with him, but the old man did not give him a chance! However, at the same time, Yang Guang also felt that 16,000 dollars could not match the real value of the stone. Hence, he thought for a moment and said to the old man, ¡°Sir, let¡¯s do it this way. I¡¯ll pay you 16,000 dollars first. After that, I¡¯ll cut the stone. If the value of the stone exceeds the price a lot, I¡¯ll give you extra money. If the stone turns out to be priceless, I won¡¯t let you suffer a great loss. I¡¯ll give you 130,000 dollars in my pocket!¡± ¡°Young man, you are really a kind-hearted person!¡± The old man was very excited when he heard this. He had never seen any person buying raw stones like this. However, the old man felt that his stone was nothing special. There could only be ordinary jade inside. It could be processed into a few sets of bracelets and small accessories such as rings. He would be satisfied if it could be sold for 16,000 dollars. The old man did not have much confidence. He did not believe that there would be emerald inside his stone. However, the key was Yang Guang¡¯s attitude. All the people in the market were looking forward to buying precious stones. Their goal was to buy the most valuable stones with a little money. There had never been anyone like Yang Guang who would pay extra money to the seller if the stone turned out to be priceless. Therefore, the old man immediately nodded and agreed. Mr. Wan watched from the side with his eyes wide open. He swallowed his saliva and said, ¡°Sir, you are really stubborn. You choose 16,000 dollars over 40,000 dollars. Why?¡± ¡°If this young man doesn¡¯t buy it, are you still willing to spend 40,000 dollars on my stone? I don¡¯t want to be the victim of your fight!¡± The old man widened his eyes and directly handed the raw stone to Yang Guang. ¡°Young man, I¡¯ll give it to you!¡± ¡°Thank you!¡± Yang Guang smiled. He took out a bundle of cash and handed it to the old man. ¡°This is 16,000 dollars. Please count it.¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need to count it. The bank¡¯s seal is still on it. I trust you!¡± The old man took the money and was about to leave. Yang Guang quickly stopped him, ¡°Sir, don¡¯t leave. The stone hasn¡¯t been cut yet!¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need for that. If there is a priceless emerald in it, that¡¯s your luck. I¡¯m not greedy for more money!¡± the old man said. ¡°Don¡¯t leave in such a hurry. Let¡¯s go and see. Cutting stone won¡¯t take much time. Besides, don¡¯t you need money? It¡¯s better to have more than nothing!¡± Yang Guang felt that the old man was quite cute. He wanted to give him more money, so he held his hand and refused to let him go. The old man couldn¡¯t move. In the end, he could only nod. ¡°Alright then. I¡¯d like to see what is inside my stone.¡± The old man and Yang Guang left and went straight to the stone-cutting machine. The surrounding onlookers saw it and all followed them one after another. ¡°This brat gets priceless stone again?¡± Mr. Wan had a bad feeling in his heart. He muttered and followed the crowd. A group of people rushed to the stone-cutting machine. The stonecutter was shocked by this scene. Usually, there was nothing to do in the morning. Only in the afternoon would he be busy. But when the stonecutter saw Yang Guang in the crowd with a stone that was bigger than a basketball in his hand, he immediately understood! Yang Guang was also the one who got the top-grade emerald last night, which left a deep impression on him! Seeing Yang Guang again, the stonecutter immediately smiled and said, ¡°Mr. Yang, you¡¯re here again!¡± ¡°Yeah, I have nothing to do, so I came to take a look!¡± Yang Guang smiled and then put the stone in his hand on the table. ¡°Please help me cut the stone!¡± ¡°Mr. Yang, it¡¯s free to cut the stone during the Stone Gambling Game at night, but there¡¯s a charge for the stone-cutting during the day!¡± the stonecutter said. ¡°It¡¯s alright. I¡¯ll pay!¡± Yang Guang smiled and reached out his hand to touch the stone. ¡°How about this. Just help me remove the 0.8-inch-thick skin on the surface. How much does it cost?¡± ¡°0.8 inches?¡± The stonecutter was stunned for a moment. Then, he smiled bitterly. ¡°It¡¯ll cost around 900 dollars.¡± ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll give you 1,000 dollars. Thank you for your hard work!¡± Yang Guang said.. Chapter 190 - Another Emerald Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio There were rules when it came to cutting stones. One had to pay according to how many times a stonecutter cut their stones. Others would ask to either cut their stones from a certain angle or cut their stones in half. In this way, the stonecutter would only have to cut their stones once or twice. After that, they could see whether their stones were good or bad and determine the stones¡¯ value. However, Yang Guang¡¯s request was a little special. When the stonecutter heard it, he was a little stunned. Then, he reminded Yang Guang, ¡°Actually, there¡¯s no need for that. I just need to cut your stone from a few angles.¡± ¡°It¡¯s fine. I want to remove all the covers of the stone. Just do your work. I will pay you,¡± Yang Guang said seriously. Seeing that Yang Guang insisted on doing so, the stonecutter could only nod his head. ¡°All right then.¡± After the stone was fixed, everybody watched the stone-cutting machine working. The onlookers stared straight at it. They seemed even more nervous than Yang Guang. Most of the people here were curious, wanting to see if Yang Guang could create another miracle. Some of them wanted to see the fun, thinking it was impossible for Yang Guang to be so lucky that he could get an emerald again. The sound of the stone-cutting machine was loud, but nobody was affected by it. They crowded together and stared at the stone being cut without blinking. Soon, a part of the stone was cut off, and water started flowing. People saw the part of the stone that was revealed was dark gray. Everyone was stunned. The stonecutter took out a flashlight and shone it on the stone. Only then did people see that it was transparent. ¡°It¡¯s icy species jadeite again,¡± someone exclaimed. ¡°It¡¯s not icy species jadeite. It¡¯s glassy species jadeite.¡± The stonecutter raised his head and glared at that person. Then, the stonecutter said to Yang Guang, ¡°Congratulations, Mr. Yang. Your stone¡¯s price is increased.¡± ¡°Okay. Go on.¡± Yang Guang did not take it seriously. No matter it was icy species jadeite or glassy species jadeite, jade could not be compared to emerald. Besides, Yang Guang knew that inside the stone was a large piece of emerald with a layer of common jade, so there was nothing to be excited about. Yang Guang looked so calm. Mr. Wan squinted his eyes and carefully looked at Yang Guang, puzzled. Mr. Wan had been in the jade industry for decades, but he had never seen someone like Yang Guang. It was lucky for Yang Guang to get one emerald. However, in Mr. Wan¡¯s opinion, it was almost impossible for Yang Guang to get three emeralds in a row. ¡°Who on earth is he?¡± Mr. Wan was puzzled. He rolled his eyes and suddenly turned around to leave. The stone-cutting machine continued to roar and cut off the covers of the stone. After more than an hour, the covers of the stone were completely removed. A piece of jade about the size of a volleyball was taken out. People could already see the emerald inside. When lights shone on the jade, everybody was instantly silent. They saw that inside the transparent jade was a globular emerald emitting a green color. ¡°Oh my! Is this dust bead?¡± someone exclaimed. One person immediately retorted, ¡°A dust bead is usually about the size of an egg. How can it be this big?¡± ¡°This is a large dust bead then. It must be worth a lot of money.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know how much it is worth, but it is very valuable for sure.¡± Yang Guang turned around to look at the old man who sold him the jade. When Yang Guang saw that the old man was also in shock and almost dropped, Yang Guang quickly smiled and said, ¡°Sir, you now know how valuable this stone is. Do you regret selling it to me?¡± ¡°It would be a lie if I say I don¡¯t regret it.¡± The old man shook his head, smiled bitterly, and continued, ¡°But business is business. I already sold the stone to you. It¡¯s lucky for you to get such a good emerald. As for what I think, it doesn¡¯t matter.¡± ¡°You really have a big heart.¡± Yang Guang smiled and handed the bag in his hand to the old man. ¡°According to our agreement, I should give you more money since the stone¡¯s price is increased. There are 100,000 dollars. It¡¯s all yours.¡± ¡°This is inappropriate.¡± The old man was shocked. Although Yang Guang said so before, the old man did not take his words seriously. Never did the old man expect that Yang Guang would actually do this. ¡°Just accept it. Now I have this stone. Do you think I will still care about the 100,000 dollars?¡± Yang Guang laughed. The old man was stunned for a moment before he nodded. ¡°That¡¯s true.¡± Then, the old man took Yang Guang¡¯s bag and looked at him with admiration. ¡°You are a good person.¡± ¡°Thank you for your compliment¡± Yang Guang chuckled, picked up the emerald, and asked loudly, ¡°I am a tourist and I am not familiar with this place. Can anyone tell me who I should look for if I want to sell this stone?¡± After Yang Guang said this, everyone looked at each other and fell silent. Then, some people started to roll their eyes. They wanted to get the emerald at a lower price. When they heard that Yang Guang was a layman, they thought that they could make a huge profit from it. Hence, someone shouted out, ¡°I¡¯ll pay two million dollars for it.¡± Unexpectedly, he was despised by others after he said that. Many people looked at the person with disdain. Some even said, ¡°Do you think you¡¯re the only smart person here? How dare you offer such a low price?¡± ¡°Do you think we are idiots? How come you believe such a large piece of emerald would be sold for two million dollars?¡± Everyone started to ridicule the person who made the offer. He immediately blushed and hid in the crowd, not daring to speak. ¡°Mr. Yang, to be honest, there are many rich people in our market, but nobody can afford to buy this piece of jade. If you believe me, I can introduce a buyer to you, okay?¡± said the stonecutter. When Yang Guang heard it, he immediately nodded, ¡°Okay. I am not familiar with this place and I don¡¯t know anyone here. Thank you for helping me out.¡± ¡°Wait a moment.¡± The stonecutter smiled, turned around, and went to the back. Soon, he took out a square metal box and handed it to Yang Guang, ¡°Put your emerald in the box first. The emerald is too salient. If you take it out like this, you will get yourself killed.¡± ¡°You¡¯re very thoughtful. Thank you.¡± Yang Guang nodded and took the box. People took one last look at the emerald, knowing that they might not have the chance to see it again in the future. After putting the emerald in the box, the stonecutter said to Yang Guang, ¡°I can suspend my work for a while. Mr. Yang, follow me. I¡¯ll take you to meet someone.¡± ¡°Okay. Thank you.¡± Yang Guang nodded, walked through the crowd, and left with the stonecutter. Looking at his back, some people were envious, while others were jealous. Each person had different feelings about it. The stonecutter and Yang Guang left the market through the back door. Then, they got into a car and went away. On the way, Yang Guang asked, ¡°Who do you want to introduce to me?¡± ¡°The biggest jeweler here, Zhu Zhenyu,¡± said the stonecutter. Just as Yang Guang was about to ask what Zhu Zhenyu¡¯s story was, Yang Guang felt that something was wrong. Yang Guang turned around and saw a car rushing toward the car he was sitting in.. Chapter 191 - The Attack Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio In a split second, the car Yang Guang was sitting in was hit before he could react. There came a loud bang. Yang Guang felt that he was spinning and his mind went blank. His body was hit, and a sharp pain shot through him instantly, causing Yang Guang to almost pass out. When he was still in a daze, the other side of the car door that was not hit was pulled open. After that, someone entered the car, grabbed the box beside Yang Guang, and was about to leave. Yang Guang realized that the person was trying to snatch his jade, so he held onto the handle of the box tightly without letting go. While Yang Guang was trying to come to his senses, he heard a fierce voice, ¡°Let go of the box, or I¡¯ll stab you to death.¡± Yang Guang knew that the situation was urgent. His life would be in danger if he still couldn¡¯t see things clearly. As he tried to pull the box back, he raised his leg and kicked the person even though he was in a daze. Yang Guang used all his strength to kick the person. It turned out that the person was kicked in the chest. Then, he screeched, flew out of the carriage like a bow, and directly crashed into a tree more than 50 feet away. It was like a cannonball being shot out, which made the onlookers dumbfounded. Yang Guang shook his head and patted his head a few times to regain consciousness. The first thing he did after becoming sober was to look at the stonecutter who was driving. It turned out that the stonecutter was lying on the airbag that popped out from the steering wheel unconsciously. Yang Guang gritted his teeth, endured the pain, and quickly grabbed the stonecutter¡¯s wrist. After checking, Yang Guang heaved a sigh of relief. The stonecutter only had a concussion and he was fine. As for Yang Guang, he was hit on the waist and legs by the deformed car door because the back of the car was rammed. The left side of his body was in extreme pain. Yang Guang checked his body and found that there were no fractures, but many parts of his body were bruised. Thinking that he was almost killed, Yang Guang was angry. He struggled to get out of the car with the box in his hand and saw that many people were watching. However, no one dared to come forward. They were all standing in the distance. Yang Guang turned around to look at the car that crashed into the car he was sitting in. There was no one in that car. Then, Yang Guang turned to look at the person who tried to snatch his box. The person was sitting on the ground with his back against a tree and keeping his head down. Yang Guang couldn¡¯t tell whether the person was dead or not. Yang Guang was a little confused as he stood there with the box in his hand. He did not know what to do. Suddenly, a gasp came from the crowd. Yang Guang turned around and saw a few men with stockings on their heads rushing towards him. They were all holding long knives in their hands. It was obvious that these people¡¯s target was the emerald in Yang Guang¡¯s hand. Yang Guang was mad when he was injured and he became even angrier after seeing these people. It was true that some people could die for money. Yang Guang thought these people were too arrogant. Yang Guang endured the pain, straightened up, and looked at these people calmly. These people were not frightened by Yang Guang¡¯s calm expression. They approached Yang Guang and swung their knives at him. Yang Guang felt his anger rose. He thought to himself, ¡°Since you guys are trying to get yourselves killed, I will help you with that.¡± He immediately bent down and kicked one of these people. The person failed to chop Yang Guang. Then, the person felt his thighs were hit. When he looked down, he realized that his knees were twisted. He was dumbstruck. The others were busy attacking Yang Guang, so they did not notice this person¡¯s condition. Yang Guang saw those long knives and his survival instinct made him forget about the pain. He picked up the box and went to confront these people. Fortunately, Yang Guang was strong enough. Although his speed slowed down because of the pain, he was still more agile than ordinary people. After dodging these people¡¯s blades, Yang Guang beat these people hard until their legs and arms were broken. The street fighting ended after a while. The onlookers were stunned and their eyes were wide open. No one expected that Yang Guang was so good at fighting. Some people even wondered if Yang Guang was a special forces soldier who was on some secret mission. After taking a few deep breaths, Yang Guang hurriedly used his energy to heal himself. At the same time, he looked around vigilantly in case some other people rushed out to attack him. A few minutes later, police sirens sounded and a few police officers rushed over. When they saw this set, they were stunned. ¡°Did you beat them all by yourself?¡± a police officer looked at Yang Guang and asked. ¡°Yes. They want to snatch my emerald,¡± Yang Guang nodded and said. The police officer¡¯s expression changed. Then, he quickly asked his colleagues to have the situation contained and called for backup. When the police officer saw that there was an unconscious driver in the car, he called an ambulance. After some time, Yang Guang followed the police into a police car and left. When Yang Guang arrived at the police station, he opened the box, showed the police the emerald, and told them the whole story. After the police learned what happened, they did not let Yang Guang go into the interrogation room. Instead, knowing that Yang Guang¡¯s injuries were not serious, the police asked him to stay in the lounge. The case was serious, so Yang Guang could not leave immediately. Less than an hour later, a middle-aged man wearing glasses came to the lounge. After entering the door, he asked, ¡°You¡¯re Mr. Yang, right?¡± ¡°Yeah. You are?¡± Yang Guang raised his head and asked. ¡°Mr. Zhu sent me here. You can go with me now,¡± said the man wearing glasses. ¡°I see.¡± Yang Guang nodded, stood up, and was about to leave. Suddenly, he thought of something and stopped. ¡°Why should I believe you?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯m really Mr. Zhu¡¯s assistant. The police have already verified my identity. You have nothing to worry about,¡± said the man wearing glasses with a smile. ¡°It is just that this place is too scary. People there dare to rob things on the street. I have to be more careful.¡± Yang Guang followed the man wearing glasses. The man wearing glasses did not mind. He smiled and brought Yang Guang out. After signing something outside, the two of them left the police station. Then, Yang Guang and the man wearing glasses got into a car, Yang Guang waited for the car to start before asking, ¡°Mr. Zhu knew that something happened to me?¡± ¡°Yes. Mr. Zhu was waiting for you at home, but then he learned that you were attacked on the way. Hence, Mr. Zhu immediately sent me over to get the picture.¡± The man wearing glasses sighed, ¡°Mr. Yang, you are really good at fighting. How come you were not injured after fighting with so many gangsters?¡± ¡°That¡¯s not true. I was injured.¡± Yang Guang laughed bitterly and continued, ¡°But those people were hurt worse.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Some of them may be permanently disabled,¡± the man wearing glasses said.. Chapter 192 - An Tempting Offer Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After hearing what the man wearing glasses said, Yang Guang suddenly thought of something and asked, ¡°I won¡¯t be responsible for beating those people, right?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry about that. Mr. Zhu will help you handle this case. He has already asked the best lawyer to come over. Those vicious people attempted to snatch your emerald. You were just trying to protect yourself,¡± the man wearing glasses said. ¡°Does that mean I have to stay here for a while longer?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Yes. It will probably take three to five days, or maybe a week,¡± the man wearing glasses said. Yang Guang was speechless and rolled his eyes. He was not in a hurry to go home. It was just that he came to this place with Qi Yingxue, but now he got stuck because of this. It seemed that he could not go back with her. Although he was not happy about it, he had no choice but to accept it. The car drove for more than half an hour and then went into the underground parking lot of a building. ¡°Mr. Zhu is waiting for you in the office on the top floor. Let¡¯s go up.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Yang Guang and the man wearing glasses got out of the car and took the elevator to the top floor. When they arrived at the office on the top floor, the man wearing glasses said respectfully to a middle-aged man, ¡°Sir, he¡¯s here.¡± ¡°All right. You may leave.¡± Sitting on the sofa was a middle-aged man who seemed to be in his fifties. He looked decent and his eyes were sharp. After exchanging a glance with the middle-aged man, Yang Guang felt as if he was seen through. Yang Guang¡¯s heart sank. He realized that this middle-aged man was not a regular person. After the man wearing glasses left, Zhu Zhenyu looked at Yang Guang and said, ¡°Mr. Yang, please take a seat.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Yang Guang nodded and sat down. ¡°You really went through a lot of trouble to come here,¡± Zhu Zhenyu said. ¡°Fortunately, nothing big happened.¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°Mr. Zhu, thank you for sending someone to the police station. Otherwise, I¡¯m afraid I would still be in there.¡± ¡°This case is big and it has attracted the attention of many people. It¡¯s indeed not easy to handle.¡± Zhu Zhenyu nodded and asked, ¡°The police are now tracking down the perpetrator. Do you know who it is?¡± ¡°I¡¯m not sure about that. It¡¯s probably someone who saw my top-notch emerald in the jade market and was jealous of me,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°I think so too.¡± Zhu Zhenyu nodded. ¡°But I didn¡¯t expect that those people would be so fierce.¡± ¡°I believe that the police will find out who the perpetrator is,¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Yeah.¡± Zhu Zhenyu nodded and continued, ¡°This is also an insult to me. How dare they try to snatch the emerald from me!¡± Yang Guang was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and said, ¡°Mr. Zhu, don¡¯t say that. The jade is still mine now. You didn¡¯t name your price, and I didn¡¯t agree to sell it to you.¡± Hearing this, Zhu Zhenyu smiled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, young man. In this place, no one except me can afford to buy your emerald. Your emerald can¡¯t be sold at a higher price unless you take it to the provincial capital and find an auction house.¡± ¡°Is that so? How much do you plan to give me?¡± Yang Guang asked. Everything else was secondary. What Yang Guang was most concerned about right now was money. Zhu Zhenyu smiled and looked into Yang Guang¡¯s eyes. ¡°I haven¡¯t seen the jade yet. How do I know if it¡¯s what I want?¡± ¡°Oh, yeah.¡± Yang Guang slapped his forehead, quickly opened the box, and took out the emerald. Just as Yang Guang placed it on the table, Zhu Zhenyu stood up. Zhu Zhenyu picked up a flashlight and a magnifying glass. Then, he bent down and looked at the emerald for a while. Seeing the arrested look on Zhu Zhenyu¡¯s face, Yang Guang did not say anything and quietly stood at the side. Ten minutes later, Zhu Zhenyu clicked his tongue. ¡°This is really the best kind of emerald.¡± After saying that, he turned to look at Yang Guang. ¡°If this piece of emerald is expertly carved, it wouldn¡¯t be an exaggeration to call this piece of emerald a national treasure.¡± ¡°Really?¡± Yang Guang was a little confused when he heard that, and his eyes widened in shock. ¡°Yeah.¡± Zhu Zhenyu nodded and continued, ¡°I¡¯ve been in the jewelry business for so many years, but I¡¯ve never seen an emerald of such high quality. This emerald is wrapped in the glassy species jadeite. It¡¯s really rare.¡± ¡°Well, Mr. Zhu. How much do you think this piece of emerald is worth then?¡± Yang Guang asked. Zhu Zhenyu didn¡¯t say anything. He just smiled. Yang Guang was a little confused. ¡°Mr. Zhu?¡± ¡°It¡¯s worth 17 million dollars.¡± Yang Guang¡¯s eyes widened and he almost stopped breathing. In his opinion, this piece of emerald was better than the one he got last night, but the emerald he got yesterday was sold to Yang Ruoyun after all. She was quite wealthy. The reason why the emerald Yang Guang got last night was sold at such a high price was because Yang Ruoyun liked it. As for the emerald Yang Guang got today, he would be happy if it could be sold for six million dollars. That was why Yang Guang was stunned when he heard that Zhu Zhenyu offered 17 million dollars. After a moment, Yang Guang could not help but smile bitterly, ¡°It seems that the jewelry business is really profitable.¡± ¡°As long as I like it, money is not a problem.¡± Zhu Zhenyu smiled and asked, ¡°Are you satisfied with this price?¡± ¡°Of course I¡¯m satisfied.¡± Yang Guang nodded. He wasn¡¯t a greedy person. Plus, the price Zhu Zhenyu offered exceeded his expectations. Zhu Zhenyu nodded happily. ¡°You are really a decisive young man.¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need to praise me, Mr. Zhu. I would like to know the price you offered is pre-tax or after-tax. For your information, I just sold an emerald this morning at a price after-tax,¡± Yang Guang smiled and said. Zhu Zhenyu was stunned and immediately asked, ¡°You sold an emerald this morning?¡± ¡°Ah? Don¡¯t you know about that?¡± Yang Guang was also stunned for a moment and then asked, ¡°I thought you were a tycoon in the jewelry business and you would have heard of it.¡± ¡°Well¡­¡± Zhu Zhenyu pondered for a moment before he asked, ¡°Did you get a canutillos last night?¡± ¡°See? I knew that you had heard about it.¡± Yang Guang chuckled and continued, ¡°I did get a canutillos last night.¡± When Zhu Zhenyu heard that, his jaw almost dropped. Then, he asked with a stunned expression, ¡°You got two top-notch emeralds. This is unbelievable.¡± ¡°I was just lucky.¡± Yang Guang did not say anything, but he seemed very proud. Zhu Zhenyu looked at Yang Guang seriously and asked, ¡°Young man, do you have some special gift?¡± ¡°No, I don¡¯t. Why do you ask?¡± Yang Guang was stunned and then asked with an expression of innocence. Yang Guang did not want Zhu Zhenyu to know that he had Method of Divine Eyes. No one could know about this. Zhu Zhenyu saw Yang Guang¡¯s expression and his eyes flickered. Then, Zhu Zhenyu laughed, ¡°Nothing. I was just asking..¡± Chapter 193 - Her Concerns Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Zhu Zhenyu¡¯s performance was not brilliant. He seemed to have understood something, and Yang Guang could tell that. So, he smiled and said, ¡°Thank you for your understanding!¡± ¡°You¡¯re welcome.¡± Zhu zhenyu smiled and continued, ¡°Since you¡¯ve said it, let¡¯s follow the method of that celebrity. I¡¯ll give you 17 million after-tax. And I¡¯ll pay the taxes. You don¡¯t need to worry about it.¡± ¡°That would be nice! Thank you so much!¡± Yang Guang was beaming in his heart, but his face remained calm. Zhu Zhenyu looked at him and secretly praised in his heart, ¡°This young man will definitely be successful in the future!¡± After telling a staff from the financial department to go with them, Zhu Zhenyu brought Yang Guang downstairs and went to the bank to go through the transfer procedures together. Yang Guang believed this man would not cheat, so he left the jade in Zhu Zhenyu¡¯s office. When they were on the way to the bank, Zhu Zhenyu asked Yang Guang about his hometown. Learning that Yang Guang¡¯s home was far from here, he asked, ¡°So, you will be going back soon?¡± ¡°When I finish everything here, I will definitely go back as soon as possible. After all, there are still a lot of things to do back there.¡± Yang Guang answered. ¡°What a pity!¡± Zhu Zhenyu continued with a smile, ¡°I feel like we can be good friends at first sight. I wanted you to stay here for a few more days.¡± ¡°I¡¯m sure there will be a chance in the future.¡± Yang Guang smiled. Then he asked, ¡°Oh right, about the case ¡­ ¡° ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ll deal with it. They have committed a robbery. There¡¯s no reason for them to sue you.¡± Zhu Zhenyu said. ¡°Thanks a lot.¡± Yang Guang smiled. After arriving at the bank, they successfully completed the transfer procedures. Then, Yang Guang exchanged his phone number with Zhu Zhenyu before leaving. Zhu Zhenyu wanted to send him back to the hotel, but Yang Guang refused. He didn¡¯t want to owe Zhu Zhenyu by taking advantage of him. Yang Guang felt a sense of relief as he walked alone. After all, he had earned 25 million dollars in such a short time after he came here with Qi Yingxue. Though it was less than 30 million, this money was enough to cover the expenses of the scenic spots for a while. Once he put in the funds after returning home, he could start working on it immediately. After strolling for a while, Yang Guang felt a little hungry. He took out his phone and called Qi Yingxue. ¡°How¡¯s everything going?¡± ¡°I just booked a batch of kitchen fittings, and I¡¯m going back to the hotel now. What about you?¡± Qi Yingxue asked. ¡°I¡¯m done here as well.¡± Yang Guang did not mention that he was attacked in the morning. ¡°Then come back. After lunch, we can book a flight back.¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll be there right away.¡± Yang Guang could already see the hotel building in the distance. After hanging up the phone, he walked over quickly. A few minutes after he returned to the room, Qi Yingxue came back to the hotel. As soon as she entered the door, she was stunned for a moment. Then, she looked at Yang Guang and asked, ¡°Did anything happen to you?¡± ¡°What? Why?¡± Yang Guang was also stunned as he asked blankly. ¡°I can feel that there¡¯s something wrong with you!¡± Qi Yingxue sized him up. Then, she came closer and sniffed. She raised her head and looked into Yang Guang¡¯s eyes, asking, ¡°Did you get into a fight with someone?¡± ¡°No way! You can even tell that?¡± Yang Guang was surprised and asked with a wry smile. ¡°Then you did, right?¡± Qi Yingxue frowned and asked again, ¡°What happened exactly? Are You hurt?¡± Sensing her worry, Yang Guang quickly shook his head and said, ¡°No, I¡¯m fine! How could I be hurt? Those guys were beaten up, and they got badly hurt!¡± Then, he explained everything that happened. After Qi Yingxue heard it, her face turned pale. She was afraid. Yang Guang had been hit in the car. If those people had hit the car harder, what would have happened to Yang Guang? Therefore, Qi Yingxue totally ignored that Yang Guang had earned 17 million. She sized up him once again. She even reached out to touch his arms and legs. Only after confirming that he was fine did she feel relieved. Then, Qi Yingxue hurriedly said, ¡°This is dangerous. Don¡¯t go for any stone gambling anymore!¡± ¡°No, don¡¯t say that! It¡¯s not my fault. Why do I have to change?¡± Yang Guang smiled bitterly and continued, ¡°Besides, I can¡¯t stop making money just because I¡¯m afraid of being robbed, right?¡± ¡°I know, but I¡¯m just worried about you.¡± Qi Yingxue sighed, looking uneasy. Seeing her expression, Yang Guang couldn¡¯t help but reach out and hug her. Then, he said, ¡°It¡¯s okay. I¡¯ll be more careful in the future.¡± As the two of them hugged each other, they forgot about the time. Qi Yingxue did not realize that they both had not eaten lunch yet until Yang Guang¡¯s stomach started rumbling. She quickly broke free from Yang Guang¡¯s embrace and asked, ¡°It¡¯s time for lunch. What do you want to eat?¡± ¡°Anything is fine. Let¡¯s eat whatever you want.¡± Yang Guang said with a smile. ¡°Fine!¡± Qi Yingxue nodded and thought for a moment before saying, ¡°We ate a lot of specialty snacks in the morning, but we haven¡¯t tried other food. There are many local delicacies here. Let¡¯s go to the restaurant downstairs and take a look!¡± ¡°Sure!¡± Yang Guang immediately nodded. He would definitely agree with her on eating. Then, they went downstairs and went to the restaurant in the hotel. After ordering a few specialty dishes, they waited for the food to be served. Yang Guang said to Qi Yingxue, ¡°Yingxue, I can¡¯t go back with you today.¡± ¡°I understand.¡± Qi Yingxue nodded and then sighed. ¡°Although that case has little to do with you, you can¡¯t leave now. You have to wait for a few days.¡± ¡°Then what about you?¡± Yang Guang asked carefully. He hoped that Qi Yingxue could stay here with him for several days since he couldn¡¯t leave. Then they could enjoy their time together for a while. But unfortunately, Qi Yingxue shook her head and said, ¡°I have to leave today. The factory will deliver the goods in the afternoon. If it¡¯s fast, we can receive them by tomorrow night. And then we need to install the things immediately. How can I not be there?¡± ¡°That makes sense.¡± Yang Guang was a little disappointed and could not help but sigh. ¡°It¡¯s a pity that I can only wait here by myself.¡± Qi Yingxue heard that and glanced at him. ¡°Then what do you want? How about I call Xiaowan to come over and stay with you?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t!¡± Yang Guang quickly waved his hand when he heard that. ¡°I don¡¯t have the right to ask her to do it!¡± Qi Yingxue snickered as a teasing smile flashed in her eyes. ¡°You seem to be afraid of her. Is she that scary?¡± ¡°No, not really. It¡¯s just that I don¡¯t want to be scolded!¡± Yang Guang laughed. The dishes were quickly served. While they were eating, Yang Guang saw Qi Yingxue looking at her phone, so he asked, ¡°What are you doing?¡± ¡°I¡¯m booking a flight ticket. I really have to go back today.¡± Qi Yingxue said. ¡°Oh, okay.¡± Yang Guang nodded. Then, he thought for a moment and said, ¡°Why don¡¯t you book the last flight today? It¡¯s fine as long as you can get home tonight.¡± Qi Yingxue was stunned. ¡°Why?¡± she asked curiously. Yang Guang looked at her as he raised his eyebrows. ¡°Before you leave, we can stay together with each other a little longer ¡­. ¡° Chapter 194 - Stop Bragging! Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Qi Yingxue¡¯s face instantly blushed because she understood what Yang Guang meant by staying with each other for a while. When Yang Guang saw her shy, he couldn¡¯t stop smiling. He felt that she looked even more attractive now. Although Qi Yingxue didn¡¯t reply to him, the two of them had a tacit understanding. They quickly finished lunch and then rushed upstairs. When they returned to the room, they couldn¡¯t wait to hug and kiss ¡­ After the passionate sex, Qi Yingxue drew circles with her finger on Yang Guang¡¯s chest. ¡°You¡¯re such a naughty boy! What can I do with you?¡± ¡°Just follow your heart. Why do you have to restrain your feelings?¡± Yang Guang laughed. ¡°Sigh!¡± When Qi Yingxue heard it, she didn¡¯t say anything. Instead, she only sighed slightly. After a moment of silence, she checked the time and said, ¡°I have to go. Or I will miss the plane.¡± ¡°Alright.¡± Yang Guang stood up as well and watched her put on her clothes. Before they parted, the two of them, who were full of affection, hugged again for a few minutes before separating. Even though she was very reluctant, Qi Yingxue still carried her luggage and left. Yang Guang had suggested sending her to the airport, but Qi Yingxue rejected it. They were not going to separate for a long time, so Qi Yingxue felt it unnecessary. Besides, it would be quite troublesome for Yang Guang to go back and forth. After watching Qi Yingxue get in the cab, Yang Guang returned to his room and sat on the sofa. He instantly felt empty in his heart. After a moment of daze, he saw the sun gradually setting. Then, he took out his phone. However, he finally gave up calling Zhu Zhenyu after a few thoughts. Yang Guang met Zhu Zhenyu in the morning. It had been just half a day, and how could there be any progress in the case? If there was any situation, Zhu Zhenyu would have definitely informed him. Just as he was about to put away his phone, it suddenly rang. Seeing that it was from He Yu, Yang Guang picked up and asked, ¡°Hello! Why are you calling me?¡± ¡°What kind of question is it? Why can¡¯t I call you?¡± He Yu snapped at him and then asked, ¡°I just called Yingxue. She told me that something happened to you over there, right?¡± ¡°Yes, but it¡¯s not a big deal. I just need to cooperate with the police in the investigation. Why are you asking?¡± Yang Guang asked. ¡°Just cooperate with the investigation? How much do you know about the law?¡± He Yu raised her voice as she said, ¡°If you don¡¯t have the conditions for self-defense, you¡¯ll have to go to jail for injuring those people!¡± ¡°It can¡¯t be! They hit me with a car and slashed me with knives. Wasn¡¯t it self-defense for what I did?¡± Yang Guang said in surprise. ¡°Not necessarily!¡± He Yu answered, and then she said impatiently, ¡°Alright, I won¡¯t waste time talking on the phone with you. Wait for me. I¡¯ll be there soon!¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Yang Guang was stunned and asked in surprise, ¡°Are you coming for me?¡± ¡°Not for you, but to solve the problem. If you got arrested, my business will be delayed!¡± After saying that, He Yu hung up the phone. Yang Guang was a little confused. It took him a while to understand. He Yu was right. If he was arrested, the business of the scenic area would be temporarily put off. And her real estate development project would also lag behind. All the previous efforts would be paid for nothing. Thinking of this, Yang Guang chuckled and said to himself, ¡°I can¡¯t believe that you¡¯re tied to me!¡± Yang Guang had his dinner casually. He didn¡¯t have an appetite eating alone, and He Yu would not arrive until 10 pm. Yang Guang could not wait a long time for her to eat together. A few hours later, He Yu, who was wearing sunglasses, arrived at the hotel. There were another two middle-aged men carrying briefcases. After meeting, He Yu looked at Yang Guang and said, ¡°They are the lawyers I hired from the provincial capital. Tell them everything about the case. Don¡¯t miss any details!¡± ¡°Uh, actually, I already have a lawyer. Mr. Zhu hired one for me.¡± Yang Guang said. He Yu was stunned for a moment. ¡°Mr. Zhu, who¡¯s that? Is it Zhu Zhenyu?¡± ¡°You Know him?¡± Yang Guang nodded and immediately asked. ¡°Of course I know him!¡± He Yu heaved a sigh of relief and asked, ¡°What¡¯s going on? How did you get to know him?¡± ¡°It¡¯s a long story,¡± Yang Guang said with a smile, ¡°You guys came over here in a hurry. Take a seat. Let me tell you.¡± ¡°Alright.¡± He Yu did not stand on ceremony and sat down on the sofa. Then, Yang Guang told them about the morning after he took the jade stone to the market, about the attack, how he knocked over the robbers, and then went to the police station. After hearing that, He Yu turned to ask the lawyers, ¡°Have you recorded it?¡± ¡°Yes, I have. Don¡¯t worry, Miss He. There¡¯s a high probability that Mr. Yang will not be found guilty. He was just defending himself.¡± One of the lawyers said. ¡°That¡¯s good. Then I don¡¯t need to worry.¡± He Yu nodded and said, ¡°You can go for a good rest. I want to talk with Yang Guang for a while.¡± ¡°Okay. See you then.¡± The two lawyers were also observant and quickly left. Yang Guang looked at He Yu as he asked, ¡°What else do you want to talk to me?¡± ¡°You just can¡¯t stop worrying us!¡± He Yu glared at him. Yang Guang did not know what to say. After complaining, He Yu immediately asked, ¡°You got a piece of jade worth 17 million?¡± ¡°More than that!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and continued, ¡°It¡¯s worth 25 million!¡± ¡°Ah? Really?¡± He Yu¡¯s eyes immediately widened. ¡°Seriously? Are you talking about Japanese yen?¡± ¡°What are you talking about? Of course not!¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes at her and then said with a smug look, ¡°Let me tell you, I realized that I have a talent for stone gambling. Now that I¡¯ve gotten 25 million, I can earn another five million later. Just wait to throw in the sponge!¡± ¡°So you just can¡¯t wait to watch me run around naked?¡± He Yu asked. ¡°Uh, of course not.¡± Yang Guang felt awkward. He quickly explained, ¡°I just want to win.¡± He Yu said, ¡°You remind me of someone. Back then, he also said that he was very talented. But he eventually failed in stone gambling and went bankrupt.¡± Yang Guang did not know why she said that. He asked with some doubt, ¡°Who is it?¡± ¡°Zhu Zhenyu!¡± He Yu looked into his eyes and said seriously. ¡°No way! Isn¡¯t he a jeweler? And he is not bankrupt!¡± Yang Guang said in surprise. ¡°He became successful after quitting stone gambling and focusing on jade business.¡± He Yu said. ¡°I see.¡± Yang Guang understood what she meant. Then he said with a smile, ¡°Relax! I¡¯m different from him. He may have relied on luck, but I¡¯m a true genius!¡± ¡°Bah!¡± He Yu rolled her eyes and then glared at him, ¡°Alright! Keep showing off. You could lose your money soon!¡± ¡°Of course not, because I won¡¯t be gambling on stones for the time being. I¡¯ll earn the remaining 5 million in some other way.¡± Yang Guang laughed. He Yu was a little surprised when she heard that, but she didn¡¯t ask much. She stood up and said, ¡°Let¡¯s see what you can do.. Stop bragging!¡± Chapter 195 - Go to the Dock Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Seeing He Yu stand up, Yang Guang asked, ¡°Where are you going?¡± He Yu looked at him and said, ¡°It¡¯s late, and I¡¯m going to rest. Do you think I¡¯ll stay in the same room with you?¡± ¡°Not really.¡± Yang Guang shook his head and continued, ¡°Then have a good rest. We¡¯ll talk tomorrow.¡± He Yu nodded and left the room with her purse. Yang Guang did not know where her room was, but he did not follow her out. After He Yu left, he closed the door. The next morning. Yang Guang woke up early. After washing up, he tidied himself up and called He Yu. When He Yu answered the phone, he heard a lazy voice from the other side. Yang Guang said in surprise, ¡°Seriously? Why are you still sleeping?¡± ¡°Why are you up?¡± He Yu asked. ¡°Aren¡¯t we going to the police station to ask about the case?¡± Yang Guang asked. He Yu said, ¡°The lawyers have already gone there!¡± ¡°Uh ¡­ ¡° Yang Guang was a little confused. ¡°Don¡¯t I need to go there?¡± ¡°What are you going for? To turn yourself in?¡± He Yu said snappily, ¡°There¡¯s nothing for you to do today. Just stay in the hotel and wait for the news!¡± After saying that, she hung up the phone. Yang Guang was speechless. He shouted at the dark phone screen, ¡°Then why didn¡¯t you tell me earlier!¡± Unfortunately, He Yu could not hear it. Yang Guang had spent the morning time for nothing. He even suspected that He Yu did it on purpose. Then, he went back to the bedroom and threw himself on the bed, but he couldn¡¯t fall asleep at all. After an unknown period, Yang Guang heard someone knocking on the door. He got up and opened the door. When he saw He Yu, who was dressed up, standing there, he was stunned for a moment and asked, ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that we don¡¯t need to go out?¡± ¡°I suddenly changed my mind!¡± After He Yu said that, she asked with a beaming expression, ¡°Since we have nothing to do today, shall we go for the stone gambling?¡± Yang Guang was surprised. He wondered what she was thinking about and why her thoughts were so different from others. Last night, she had tried to convince him not to gamble, but now, she changed her mind! When He Yu saw Yang Guang¡¯s expression, she realized what was going on. He Yu chuckled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t be surprised. I thought about it for half a night when I was back last night. I feel that you couldn¡¯t have gotten the jade by luck. You must have some special ability, right?¡± ¡°It took you half a night to figure it out. You are really smart!¡± Yang Guang gave her a thumb up and joked. He Yu rolled her eyes at him. ¡°Stop making sarcastic remarks. Hurry up! Let¡¯s go!¡± ¡°We can go, but don¡¯t have too much hope. I¡¯ve already gone there twice before. There are a lot of stones in the market, but few of them have jade inside. I was lucky to be able to find the top-grade jade.¡± Yang Guang said. ¡°Maybe I¡¯m lucky too!¡± He Yu laughed and continued, ¡°Hurry up! I can¡¯t wait to see it!¡± ¡°Fine!¡± Yang Guang was helpless. After nodding, he took the room card and left with her. The two of them went downstairs, took a cab, and headed straight for the stone gambling market. Thinking that he had not found any good stones in that market before, Yang Guang asked the driver, ¡°Is there only one market selling stones here?¡± ¡°Of course not. The place you are going to is the favorite market for tourists. The stones there have been selected a few times. What good things can there be?¡± The driver said. Yang Guang was stunned, then asked, ¡°Then which place is better for selecting stones?¡± ¡°The dock!¡± The driver looked at him through the rearview mirror as he said, ¡°Once the stones get off the boat, the big cheeses doing this business have already sent people to wait there. They will immediately keep those good ones. The rest of the stones that they don¡¯t feel valuable will be sold to the tourists at the market. Therefore, it would be hard to find a single one with jade out of a hundred stones!¡± ¡°No wonder I couldn¡¯t find the good ones!¡± Yang Guang finally understood and said with a look of realization, ¡°Then, let¡¯s change the destination. Go to the dock!¡± ¡°Alright!¡± The driver was happy to go to the dock. He could earn more money since it was further. He immediately changed the direction. Yang Guang turned to look at He Yu, ¡°If I can get more jade on the dock today, we are likely going to get the result for our bet!¡± He Yu looked at him. ¡°No way! It doesn¡¯t count today. Don¡¯t even think about it!¡± Yang Guang was stunned. ¡°Why not?¡± ¡°Because even if you did it, it¡¯s because of my luck. So it doesn¡¯t count!¡± He Yu raised her chin with an earnest look. ¡°Uh, that works?¡± Yang Guang was helpless and could only smile bitterly. He Yu nodded with a serious look. ¡°Of course, as long as I¡¯m here, the money you earned won¡¯t count!¡± ¡°Alright, it doesn¡¯t matter. Anyway, I still have other chances.¡± Yang Guang rolled his eyes and didn¡¯t care about it anymore. After the cab arrived at the dock, Yang Guang saw the sea for the first time. At the same time, he realized that this place was vast. There were many kinds of boats of all sizes at the semi-circular dock, and they could not even count them. The driver pointed to the front and said, ¡°It¡¯s there. The cars can¡¯t get in. You can only walk. Do you see those unloading people? They are the ones who sell stones.¡± ¡°Thank you!¡± Yang Guang paid him and then got off the cab with He Yu. They soon arrived at the unloading place and saw dozens of big wooden boxes on the ground. The lids of the boxes were all open, and there were all kinds of stones inside. There were quite a few people at the scene holding flashlights and selecting the stones. Someone saw the two of them and immediately shouted, ¡°Hey! You¡¯re not allowed to enter here. How did you get in?¡± ¡°We walked in. Nobody stopped us.¡± Yang Guang chuckled and asked, ¡°Did you just unload these stones from the ship?¡± ¡°Why? Do you want to select the stones too? Sorry, this place is already reserved. You can¡¯t pick or look!¡± That person said. ¡°Oh, really?¡± Yang Guang pondered for a moment and had no choice but to mention Zhu Zhenyu. ¡°Actually, Mr. Zhu sent me here!¡± He thought if he mentioned Mr. Zhu, they would let him pick the stones. Unexpectedly, when they heard this, almost everyone laughed out loud and did not give him the honor at all. Then, the person who spoke first laughed and said, ¡°Man, even if you¡¯re making up lies, you need to think of another boss. More than half of us here work for Mr. Zhu, and no one knows you!¡± ¡°Uh ¡­ ¡° Yang Guang was instantly speechless. But he immediately smiled and said, ¡°Alright then. If you don¡¯t believe me, I have no choice but to let Mr. Zhu tell you personally!¡± ¡°Come on! Stop fooling around. Mr. Zhu never calls people like us. Are you joking?¡± The man curled his lips and said. Yang Guang smiled and didn¡¯t say anything else. He took out his phone and called Zhu Zhenyu.. Chapter 196 - A Friend Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Zhu Zhenyu was still a little surprised when he received Yang Guang¡¯s call. Then, he smiled and said, ¡°Guang, you are really well-informed. You even know the dock.¡± ¡°I just asked around and then I found here!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°Mr. Zhu, I¡¯m already here. Can I take a look at these stones?¡± Zhu Zhenyu said, ¡°Of course, no problem. If you help me pick valuable raw stones, I¡¯ll thank you properly!¡± Then he continued with a smile, ¡°Wait a minute. I¡¯ll tell them to let you through right away!¡± Then, he hung up the phone. Yang Guang smiled and put away the phone. Seeing that they were looking at him curiously, he immediately put on a mischievous look. Then, he said to them, ¡°Hold on a second. Mr. Zhu will call you soon!¡± ¡°Oh, do you think I will believe you?¡± The person in front still had a look of disdain on his face. However, just as he finished speaking, his phone rang. When he saw the phone number, he was stunned! The one who called him was not Zhu Zhenyu. Zhu Zhenyu was such a big shot. He would definitely not make a phone call to a nobody. Zhu Zhenyu just asked his subordinate to call him. The person picked up the call. His expression changed after he heard a few sentences. He quickly nodded and bowed, ¡°Yes, yes, yes. I know. I know. I understand!¡± After he hung up the phone, coldness and disdain disappeared on his face. He smiled apologetically and walked over. ¡°Mr. Yang, right? We were so ignorant. We didn¡¯t know about your relationship with Mr. Zhu!¡± When others saw this scene, they immediately knew that the young man in front of them was not bragging. He really knew their boss! At this moment, Yang Guang was as proud as a peacock. Glaring at that person, he asked with pride, ¡°Can you let me see the stones now?¡± ¡°Of course, you can take a look. Make yourself at home!¡± that person said. Yang Guang had a faint smile on his face. Turning his head, he raised his eyebrows at He Yu. It seemed that he was showing off how powerful he was. In the end, He Yu only rolled her eyes at him! Coming to the side of the boxes, Yang Guang used the Method of Divine Eyes. The color of the stones in front of him immediately changed. He Yu followed him by the side. She did not look at the stones. Her eyes dwelled on him. It seemed that she was thinking something. Yang Guang did not say anything. He looked down and quickly finished observing the stones. Then, he looked at the person in charge. ¡°Have you finished picking the stones?¡± ¡°Almost. There are still a few boxes left. These are for the boss. The rest will be sent to the market. Merchants will pay for these stones,¡± said the person. ¡°So that¡¯s how it is!¡± Yang Guang nodded and then said to the man, ¡°Get someone to take a box. I¡¯ll pick a few more stones for you!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Yang Guang was his boss¡¯s friend, so the man nodded without saying a word. Yang Guang put his hands behind his back. He walked while picking. Soon, he picked a dozen stones of different sizes and put them all into a box. In the end, he held a round stone that was about the size of an ostrich egg in his hand. He did not put it into the box. Just as he finished picking the stones, a car drove straight into the dock. Then, Zhu Zhenyu got out of the car with a smile on his face. Yang Guang knew that he might come, but he didn¡¯t expect him to come so quickly. So, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he smiled and said, ¡°Mr. Zhu, why are you here?¡± ¡°You¡¯re here. That¡¯s the reason I am here!¡± Zhu Zhenyu laughed and came closer to ask, ¡°How is it? Do you find something great in this batch of stones?¡± ¡°Of course. Your men have a keen eye. They have picked the best raw stones for you!¡± Yang Guang said. He did not speak ill of those people. They felt his kindness. Therefore, the man in front said to Zhu Zhenyu, ¡°Mr.Zhu, Mr. Yang also helped us pick out some stones just now. They are all in this box!¡± ¡°Oh?¡± Zhu Zhenyu was obviously a little surprised. He quickly walked over and took out a stone. He looked at it carefully for a while. Then raising his head, he looked at Yang Guang, ¡°Guang, are you sure that this stone is precious?¡± ¡°Of course. If you don¡¯t believe me, you can cut it open now!¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Of course, I believe you!¡± Zhu Zhenyu stood up and continued, ¡°But in order to let my men know your capability, let¡¯s cut it open and have a look!¡± ¡°Uncle Zhu, didn¡¯t you stop gambling on stones? Why do you get back to it again?¡± He Yu asked at this time. Zhu Zhenyu was startled. He turned to look at her and asked with some doubt, ¡°Who are you?¡± ¡°I¡¯m Yuyu. I¡¯ve put on a little weight recently. I look different!¡± He Yu said. ¡°You are Yuyu?¡± Zhu Zhenyu looked at her facial features and immediately remembered who she was! Then, he quickly smiled and asked, ¡°Why didn¡¯t you tell me that you came? !¡± ¡°I came with Yang Guang!¡± He Yu smiled and asked, ¡°Uncle Zhu, you haven¡¯t answered my question!¡± ¡°You¡¯re talking about gambling on stones? I don¡¯t gamble on stones anymore. These stones were bought at a low price. I won¡¯t lose money whether they are precious or not!¡± Zhu Zhenyu smiled and said. ¡°Is that so? If those stones are precious, you can make a lot of money!¡± He Yu said. Zhu Zhenyu laughed out loud and nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. I¡¯m not greedy now. I only buy raw stones at a fair price. I don¡¯t believe in any gimmicks. If the stones are expensive, I will definitely not buy them!¡± ¡°Then Uncle Zhu, you will earn a fortune this time. I believe that the raw stones that Yang Guang picked for you are all precious!¡± He Yu said. Hearing this, Zhu Zhenyu was stunned. Then, he immediately nodded with a smile on his face. ¡°Of course. I also believe in Yang Guang¡¯s capability!¡± Only now did he know that Yang Guang actually knew He Yu. Moreover, it seemed that they were pretty close. There was a riot in Zhu Zhenyu¡¯s heart. As for what he was thinking, only he himself knew! Someone took out a rechargeable electric grinder from the car and directly peeled off the skin of the raw stone on the spot. Of course, due to the power, this grinder was naturally not as effective as the stone-cutting machine. It took about ten minutes to cut out a facet. Then, they used water to clean the stone powder on the surface. People saw that there was a little green in it! ¡°God!¡± Those who worked for Zhu Zhenyu all stared at one another immediately with eyes wide open! They had all looked at the stone carefully. Judging from the color of the stone, they thought that there was no emerald in it at all! Even Zhu Zhenyu, who had been a veteran in this area for more than twenty years, felt that Yang Guang made a mistake when he first saw it! But now, the fact proved that they were the ones who were wrong! ¡°Haha, Guang, I¡¯m impressed by your capability. I don¡¯t need to look at the other stones. They must be precious!¡± Zhu Zhenyu laughed loudly and then looked at Yang Guang. ¡°Tell me, Guang, what reward do you want?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t need any reward. I want this!¡± Yang Guang smiled and showed him the raw stone that he had been holding.. Chapter 197 - Return Home Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Zhu Zhenyu was stunned. Looking at the raw stone in Yang Guang¡¯s hand, he was dumbfounded for a moment. Then, he asked, ¡°There must be emerald inside, right?¡± ¡°Yes, and the quality is not bad!¡± Yang Guang told the truth. He did not hide it. ¡°Alright, you helped me pick out precious stones. I will give you the thing you want. Even if there is a top-grade canutillos inside, I¡¯ll give it to you!¡± Zhu Zhenyu smiled and continued, ¡°I didn¡¯t spend much money on these stones anyway!¡± ¡°Thank you very much!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°Actually, this stone doesn¡¯t contain any top-grade canutillos. I¡¯ll find a stone-cutting machine to cut it open later. If you want, I can show it to you!¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need for that. I¡¯ve already said that I¡¯ll give you what you want. What¡¯s inside has nothing to do with me!¡± Zhu Zhenyu smiled and said. Since he had already said so, Yang Guang did not put on an act. He casually put the stone in his pocket. The stones that were picked out by Yang Guang were loaded into a car. The rest were all loaded into a truck and were sent to the raw stone market. He Yu looked at Zhu Zhenyu. ¡°Uncle Zhu, I¡¯ve already asked two lawyers to deal with Yang Guang¡¯s matter. You¡¯ve helped a lot previously, so I thank you on his behalf!¡± ¡°Why are you being so mannerly? Yang Guang and I hit it off at first sight. Now I discover that he¡¯s still your friend, there¡¯s no need to say thank you!¡± Zhu Zhenyu smiled and continued to ask, ¡°Oh right, Yuyu, why do you suddenly become like this?¡± ¡°It¡¯s a long story. I¡¯ve been losing weight recently, and I¡¯ll soon be the same as before!¡± He Yu smiled and continued, ¡°Alright, Uncle Zhu. We still have things to do. We won¡¯t bother you. We will leave now!¡± ¡°What are you talking about? Yuyu, you¡¯ve come all the way here. You do not bother me at all. Hurry up and get in the car. I will take you out for lunch!¡± Zhu Zhenyu smiled and said. ¡°Thank you for your kindness. Yang Guang and I really have things to do. If we have time tonight, I will tell you!¡± He Yu said. Seeing that she insisted, Zhu Zhenyu did not force her to stay. He laughed and said, ¡°Alright then, I¡¯ll ask the driver to send you back!¡± ¡°Thank you.¡± This time, He Yu did not refuse. On the way back to the hotel, Yang Guang did not ask much due to the existence of the driver. After returning to the hotel, he asked, ¡°We clearly have nothing to do. Why did you reject Zhu Zhenyu?¡± ¡°No reason. I just don¡¯t like to eat with elders!¡± He Yu shrugged. ¡°Oh, then what do you want to eat for lunch? Let me pay for the bill today!¡± Yang Guang smiled. ¡°Of course, you should pay for the bill!¡± He Yu looked at him. ¡°You earned a fortune today, right?¡± ¡°It¡¯s nothing. Inside this stone is not emerald. It¡¯s red.¡± Yang Guang smiled. In his opinion, the red jade wasn¡¯t emerald, so it was definitely not valuable. The reason why he wanted this stone was that he thought it was pretty. He wanted to keep it as a souvenir. However, unexpectedly, He Yu looked amazed after hearing his words. Then, she asked, ¡°Are you really sure that there is something red inside?¡± ¡°Yes, I am sure. You still don¡¯t believe in my capability?¡± Yang Guang asked with a smile. ¡°Don¡¯t you know that if the red jade is of good quality, it¡¯s even more valuable than the green one!¡± He Yu said. Yang Guang was stunned and his eyes widened in shock. ¡°Is that true?¡± ¡°Of course, it¡¯s true. Why would I lie to You?¡± He Yu rolled her eyes at him. Then, she realized that Yang Guang really knew nothing about it. Letting out a sigh, she said. ¡°It seems that being a rich man is your destiny. Even if you are not an expert of jade, you can still get the good stuff!¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± Yang Guang scratched his head and laughed bitterly. ¡°Then should I tell Mr. Zhu? Why do I feel a little sorry for him?¡± He Yu said, ¡°No need. He already said that the thing in the stone had nothing to do with him!¡± Then, she asked, ¡°Why don¡¯t we find a stonecutter to cut the stone? Then, we can see what is inside.¡± ¡°It¡¯s better not to do that. The stonecutter I know is still in the hospital. Let¡¯s talk about it after we go back!¡± Yang Guang shook his head. ¡°Okay.¡± He Yu didn¡¯t force him. She was curious, but it was not necessary to know what was inside the stone right away. Then, the two went downstairs. They ate some food in a snack shop. In the afternoon, the two lawyers came back and told Yang Guang good news. The police had already drawn a conclusion. He was indeed acting in self-defense and didn¡¯t have any responsibility. When the attacker¡¯s injuries healed, they should go to court for trial. At that time, Yang Guang could go to the trial if he had the time. If he did not have the time, he could hire a lawyer to conduct the trial. In other words, Yang Guang was now fine and could leave this place at any time. Hearing this news, Yang Guang was eager to return home. Seeing that he was anxious, He Yu didn¡¯t say anything. She immediately booked an evening flight. Then, Yang Guang called Zhu Zhenyu and told him that he was in a hurry to go home. He said that he had something important to do. He would come back when he had the chance in the future. Zhu Zhenyu didn¡¯t ask him to stay. He only said that he would go to Qingshan Village to see him in the future when he had time. The two of them made a verbal agreement. When evening came, Yang Guang, He Yu, and the two lawyers boarded the plane. It was a direct flight to the provincial capital. When the plane landed, it was already past nine o¡¯clock in the evening. Then, they got off the plane. The He family¡¯s car was already waiting. He Yu and Yang Guang got into the car and went back to He Qingtang¡¯s home together. Although it was very late, He Qingtang had not slept yet. He was waiting in the study room. Seeing Yang Guang, He Qingtang was beaming with joy. He quickly welcomed him into the house. He Yu did not know anything about the Azure Dragon Cave. Seeing her grandfather behave like this, she immediately rolled her eyes speechlessly. After that, she hurriedly said, ¡°Grandfather, you can chat with Yang Guang. I will go upstairs and get some sleep!¡± ¡°Okay, good night!¡± He Qingtang nodded. He Yu was a little surprised. She glanced at Yang Guang, not understanding why he was suddenly so favored. After she left, He Qingtang lowered his voice. Looking at Yang Guang, he said, ¡°Mr. Huang, you must have gained quite a lot from this trip to the south, right?¡± ¡°Yes, I gained a lot!¡± Yang Guang smiled. Not hiding anything, he told him about the Method of Divine Eyes. He also told him how he used this skill to obtain a few pieces of top-grade emerald. After that, he took out the raw stone and handed it to He Qingtang. ¡°When you have time, help me find someone to grind off the outer skin. As for the thing inside, you can deal with it as you want!¡± ¡°Alright, leave it to me!¡± He Qingtang nodded and carefully put away the raw stone. Then, he immediately asked, ¡°Mr. Huang, did you see anyone from our Azure Dragon Cave when you went to the south this time?¡± ¡°No. I didn¡¯t connect with many people. The only big shot I met was Zhu Zhenyu!¡± Yang Guang said. He Qingtang was stunned.. ¡°He¡¯s from our Azure Dragon Cave!¡± Chapter 198 - Coma Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yang Guang was also stunned. ¡°Really?¡± ¡°He is from my faction. Of course, he¡¯s one of us!¡± He Qingtang said. Then, letting out a sigh, he continued, ¡°It¡¯s my fault. I didn¡¯t tell them. Clearly, Zhu Zhenyu didn¡¯t see the leader¡¯s token!¡± ¡°That¡¯s true.¡± Yang Guang nodded and continued, ¡°But it doesn¡¯t matter. I went to the south on impulse. Knowing our disciples was not the purpose of my trip.¡± They chatted for a while. Seeing that it was getting late, Yang Guang said to He Qingtang, ¡°It¡¯s already so late. We had better go to sleep!¡± ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll send you upstairs!¡± He Qingtang said. ¡°No need. If He Yu saw us, she would be confused. I¡¯ll go up myself.¡± Yang Guang smiled and got up to leave the study. Then, he went to the guest room. He lied on the bed and a wave of tiredness swept over him. He fell asleep without even taking off his shoes. The next morning, after a simple breakfast, Yang Guang and He Yu left. When they reached Qingshan Village, it was already ten o¡¯clock in the morning. Yang Guang returned home in a happy mood. When he saw Wu Xiaolian carrying the child, he immediately ran up to her. Seeing that he was back, Wu Xiaolian immediately smiled and said, ¡°You¡¯re finally back. You¡¯ve been gone for two days. Yaya misses you!¡± ¡°Really?¡± Hearing that, Yang Guang quickly held the child into his arms. Then, he smiled and said, ¡°Unfortunately, I was in a hurry on the way and forgot to buy you a present!¡± ¡°She is such a little girl. There¡¯s no need to buy her a present. By the way, everything went well this time?¡± Wu Xiaolian asked. She was not aware of what had happened in the south. Yang Guang did not intend to mention it. He smiled and said, ¡°It all went off smoothly. I have some good news to tell you!¡± Wu Xiaolian was stunned for a moment. She looked at him and asked, ¡°What good news?¡± ¡°Xiaolian, I got the money needed for the construction of the scenic area!¡± Yang Guang smiled and said. ¡°What?¡± Wu Xiaolian was a little dumbfounded. Her eyes were full of confusion. ¡°It would cost almost 30 million dollars for the construction of the scenic area. This time, I went to the south and earned more than 22 million dollars!¡± Yang Guang chuckled and took out his phone to show her how much money he had. ¡°Wow, I did not expect that¡­¡± Wu Xiaolian was completely shocked. Then, she looked at Yang Guang nervously, ¡°Guang, how did you get it?¡± From her point of view, to earn such a large sum of money was almost impossible. However, Yang Guang gained more than 22 million dollars in two days. How could it be possible! ¡°Xiaolian, don¡¯t be nervous. I did not get the money by devious means. Yang Ruoyun gave me eight million dollars. You know that big star, right?¡± Yang Guang grinned and told her about how he earned the money. Wu Xiaolian was dumbfounded as if she was listening to a fairy tale. At this moment, Xu Ling also returned. When she saw Yang Guang at home, she immediately smiled and said, ¡°You¡¯re back!¡± ¡°Hello, Sister Ling. Did you miss me?¡± Yang Guang asked with a smile. Xu Ling blushed and glared at him. Then, she asked, ¡°What are you talking about? Why are you so happy?¡± ¡°Yang Guang earned more than 22 million dollars!¡± Wu Xiaolian said in a hurry. ¡°Ah?¡± Xu Ling thought she heard wrong, but when she saw the smug smile on Yang Guang¡¯s face, she knew that it was true. After listening to what had happened, Xu Ling felt a little speechless. She looked at Yang Guang and said, ¡°You are so impressive! Knowing your capability, those gamblers don¡¯t need to work anymore. They just need to look for you!¡± ¡°I¡¯m not interested in gambling. I just want to earn 30 million dollars and quickly start the construction of our scenic area!¡± Yang Guang smiled and continued, ¡°Actually, I like to earn money by selling tickets.¡± ¡°The construction of the scenic area has already started,¡± Xu Ling said. ¡°It is so fast! The building of the road is completed?¡± Yang Guang asked. Xu Ling shook her head. ¡°Not yet, but it will be completed very soon. We¡¯re already making the foundation bed now. We¡¯ll probably be able to lay down asphalt in a few days.¡± ¡°Okay, I brought enough money back!¡± Yang Guang said. He stayed at home for a while. He Yu came back from the construction site at noon. Then, they had lunch together. After that, Yang Guang went into the mountain with He Yu and Xu Ling to see the progress of the construction. Just as Xu Ling said, there were already some people in the valley. They also brought a lot of equipment, generators, and various tools. In addition, there were seven or eight tents set up on the grassland. Some were for people, some were for the storage of equipment, and some were for cooking. Seeing the busy workers, Yang Guang immediately went into rapture. He was sure that this place would be full of tourists in the future. That would be a wonderful scene! After staying in the mountain for the whole afternoon, the three of them returned to Qingshan Village in the evening. On the way back, they chatted and laughed together. It began to get dark. When Yang Guang and the others were about to finish their meal, his phone rang. Seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, Yang Guang picked up the call and asked, ¡°Who is it?¡± ¡°It¡¯s me, Chen Zhiyuan.¡± The voice was low and deep, and there seemed to be a hint of anxiety in his tone. ¡°Oh, Mr. Chen, what can I do for you?¡± Yang Guang asked with a smile. ¡°Hurry up and come to the county. Something happened to Yingxue!¡± Chen Zhiyuan said. ¡°What?¡± Yang Guang stood up in a flash, and his face was immediately filled with anxiety. ¡°What happened?¡± ¡°It was probably due to the overwork that she suddenly fainted. She¡¯s in the hospital now,¡± Chen Zhiyuan said. ¡°Got it. I¡¯ll get there as soon as possible!¡± Yang Guang said. Then, he hung up the phone. He turned to look at He Yu. ¡°Yingxue is in the hospital. Send me to the county!¡± ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡± He Yu stood up without hesitation and walked out. ¡°Wait, I¡¯ll go too!¡± Xu Ling also immediately stood up when she heard that. However, Yang Guang turned around and said, ¡°Ling, you can stay at home. I¡¯ll go and take a look. Yingxue will be fine!¡± ¡°Alright then.¡± Xu Ling did not insist. She nodded and said, ¡°Remember to inform us when you arrive!¡± ¡°Alright!¡± Yang Guang said. Then, he quickly got into He Yu¡¯s car. He did not say a word on the way. His brows were knitted, and he felt that things were a little strange. If Yingxue really fainted due to overwork, would Chen Zhiyuan¡¯s tone be this anxious? Maybe Chen Zhiyuan was afraid that he would lose his mind, so Chen Zhiyuan chose to hide the truth. Thinking of this, Yang Guang raised his head. He said to He Yu, ¡°Can you be faster?¡± ¡°It¡¯s already very fast. Don¡¯t worry!¡± He Yu looked at the road ahead. The country road could only accommodate two cars, and the road was rugged. She tried her best to drive as fast as she could. Soon, they reached the county hospital. Just as they arrived at the inpatient building, Mr. Li, who was guarding the door, came up to them. ¡°How¡¯s Yingxue?¡± Yang Guang asked immediately after getting out of the car. ¡°You¡¯ll know when you see her. Follow me!¡± Mr. Li did not say much and turned around to leave. Yang Guang was anxious and grabbed his wrist. ¡°The suspense is killing me.. Hurry up and tell me!¡±
