Chapter 305: Chapter 305: Trouble at Mu Cheng’s Side_1
Inside the living room of a certain villa in Tiandu City.
Zhang Xian listened to the busy tone on the phone, smiled bitterly, and tossed the phone onto the couch.
Fu iting nudged Zhang Xian and asked, "What’s up? Did Mo Shaoyun miss you and have Xiao Nan call to check on you?"
Zhang Xian wiped his nose, saying, "Do you think Elder Sister Shaoyun would miss ? Maybe Sister Nan is just bored and wants to call and tease ."
"I don’t think so." Duan Hong answered, chuckling, "Your skin is thicker than a city wall. You’re always the one teasing others, no one dares to tease you, they’re not even your match."
"Hehe, Elder Sister Hong knows
well!" Zhang Xian smirked and asked, "So, when do we have a sleepover?"
Fu iting glared at Zhang Xian, "In your dreams."
"Elder Sister iting, you’re not fair. It’s been days, and you still won’t succumb to ." Zhang Xian stated dissatisfied.
Since tasting sweetness on New Year’s Eve, he’s been very interested in Fu iting. To his frustration, Fu iting kept playing hard to get, making it unbearably difficult.
Upon seeing Zhang Xian ssing around with Fu iting, Duan Hong burst out laughing. Zhang Xian had actually made a lot of jokes trying to woo Fu iting over the past few days.
However, his efforts didn’t pay off.
"No." Fu iting flatly refused.
Zhang Xian complained, "Elder Sister iting, you’re being too unreasonable. How can you treat
like this?"
Fu iting peered at Zhang Xian, "And what exactly am I doing?"
"You..." Zhang Xian didn’t know what to say. She was willing if she was, and unwilling if she wasn’t. What could he do about it?
Seeing that Zhang Xian didn’t know how to respond, Fu iting smiled triumphantly and went back to watching TV.
"Dingdong..."
Suddenly, the doorbell rang in the living room.
Duan Hong and Fu iting both turned their heads, but neither of them showed any intention of getting up.
Zhang Xian twitched at the corners of his mouth and reluctantly walked to the door and opened it.
"Brother Zhang Xian, happy New Year."
Qianqian stood at the door with a red gift box in her hands.
Zhang Xian was stunned, "Qianqian, you’re back so soon? Why didn’t you let
know?"
"My dad was supposed to co on the eighth day, but I missed Brother Zhang Xian, so... I ca today." Qianqian blushed and extended her hand, "This is for you."
Zhang Xian took the gift box and asked, "What’s in it?"
Qianqian lowered her head and said, "If you want to know what’s inside, you can unbox it yourself! Why are you asking ?"
"Hehe, co on in." Zhang Xian laughed.
"I have sothing else." Qianqian said and then ran out.
When she ca back, she had two more bags in her hand, gifts for Duan Hong and Fu iting.
Seeing that she had brought them gifts, Fu iting and Duan Hong felt both pleased and moved. Qianqian was indeed a sweet and considerate girl!
"Dinglingling..."
Suddenly, a mobile phone ringtone rang.
Zhang Xian took out his phone and looked at it, he answered with a smile, "Elder Sister Cheng, happy New Year!"
"Yes, Happy New Year! What are you doing?"
Zhang Xian said, "What else could I possibly be doing? Just hanging out at ho."
"So you do have ti then?"
Zhang Xian asked, "What, Elder Sister Cheng, are you back in Tiandu? Or could it be that you’re missing , and you want to ask
out?"
"Yes, your Elder Sister misses you. But I’m not in Tiandu, I’m in Sunset Town. If you miss , you could co to Sunset Town."
Zhang Xian frowned, "Elder Sister Cheng, you don’t have sothing you need my help with, do you?"
"Hehe, how clever of you. You did promise
before, didn’t you?"
Zhang Xian scratched his head, "Well, Elder Sister Cheng, I don’t have much ti recently, things are quite busy here in Tiandu. If it’s not urgent at your end, could you possibly delay it?"
"This is related to dicinal herbs. If you can put off your side, I’d certainly have no objections. You can delay it as long as you need."
"Related to dicinal herbs?" Zhang Xian hesitated for a mont, "Can you explain what it’s about?"
"There are three major dical suppliers in Sunset Town, and the Mu Family is one of them. The huge demand for dicinal herbs in the market has led to fierce competition here, and our Mu Family is at a disadvantage."
Zhang Xian frowned, "Are you saying soone is stealing your dicinal herbs?"
"Yes, you could say that. You seem quite desperate for dicinal herbs, don’t you? I believe you’ll rush over here regardless."
Zhang Xian hesitated a little before saying, "Okay, I’m leaving right now."
"Okay, Elder Sister is waiting for you."
"Alright, I’ll get there as soon as I can." Zhang Xian replied and hung up the phone.
Even though things were not yet over on the Tiandu side, he wasn’t supposed to leave. But the matter at Mu Cheng’s end was related to dicinal herbs. He had to solve it as soon as possible, there was no ti to lose.
This wasn’t just because Lingxiao Mountain Villa was near completion and he urgently needed dicinal herbs for dicine preparations, but also because he had to increase his power as soon as possible when facing two major innate experts.
"What happened? Is there a problem?" Duan Hong asked, furrowing her brow.
Zhang Xian said, "A friend of mine has gotten into so trouble, and it’s affecting
here, so I must go over and sort it out."
Dong Qian anxiously asked, "Brother Zhang Xian, I just ca over and you’re leaving again?"
"Er..." Zhang Xian nodded. Seeing that Dong Qian was about to cry, he quickly rubbed her head and said, "But this ti, I’m taking my Qianqian with ."
Dong Qian stopped crying and started laughing. "Really?"
Zhang Xian nodded. "You’re about to cry, how could I not take you with ? I don’t want to see my Qianqian crying."
Fu iting wasn’t pleased. "Are you only taking Dong Qian with you? What about us?"
"What about you?" Zhang Xian questioned, "Do you want to go too?"
Fu iting said, "Of course!"
Zhang Xian scratched his nose, saying, "I actually only planned to take Elder Sister Hong and Qianqian. Elder Sister iting, you should stay at ho! Soone has to keep watch."
Fu iting’s beautiful eyes widened as she angrily said, "Zhang Xian, what do you an by that? Are you doing this because I didn’t let you have your way with ? Is this how you treat ?"
Zhang Xian grimaced, "Who asked you to tornt
all the ti?"
Fu iting didn’t let up. "Zhang Xian, if you dare to leave
behind, I’ll cut off your family jewels."
Zhang Xian froze for a mont, quickly covered his crotch, and chuckled, "Elder Sister iting, I was just teasing you. How could I leave you hear alone? I can’t bear to do that, right?"
Fu iting finally seed appeased when she heard this, and her face looked much brighter. "Humph, you’re lucky you knew better."
...
As the matter of the dicinal herbs was important, Zhang Xian didn’t intend to delay it. After asking Buckteeth Zhou, Li Likai, and Wu Dajun to co over and discussing so matters with them, they were ready to set off.
As it was a long drive, he didn’t take his Ferrari, but switched it with Buckteeth Zhou’s BMW 5 Series.
Although the BMW couldn’t outrun the Ferrari, it had more space and was more comfortable to ride in.
After starting the BMW, Zhang Xian drove out of the residential area and said to Fu iting in the passenger seat, "Elder Sister Ting, call Elder Sister Yulan and ask her not to co over for now."
Fu iting hesitated, then took out her phone to dial Wen Yulan’s number.
After she conveyed Zhang Xian’s intentions, and Wen Yulan consented, she started fiddling with the map on the control panel, but she couldn’t find Sunset Town.
The address given by Mu Cheng simply wasn’t in the map.
After fiddling for a while longer, trying several versions of the map, and still not being able to find the place, she beca frustrated. "Sothing’s off, Zhang Xian. Why isn’t Sunset Town on the map?"
Zhang Xian said, "Really?"
Fu iting said, "What do you an, ’Really?’ I’ve searched several tis. Did you ss sothing up?"
Zhang Xian said, "How could I? Let
ask Elder Sister Cheng first."
Zhang Xian gave a wry smile, then took out his phone to dial Mu Cheng’s number. "Elder Sister Cheng, are you pulling my leg? What kind of place is Sunset Town?"
"What? What are you on about now?"
Zhang Xian said, "It’s not
who’s going crazy, it’s that Sunset Town you ntioned, it’s not on the navigation system, how am I supposed to find you?"
"Oh, our place is remote, so it wouldn’t be on the navigation. You should head to Qujiang first, and then give
a call when you arrive. I’ll co pick you up. Otherwise, you won’t be able to find Sunset Town."
Zhang Xian said grumpily, "What kind of backwater is your place? You’re being all mysterious."
"Co on, Sunset Town is a place that specializes in dicinal herbs trade. If we were in the city center, would you expect us to search for herbs in the plaza? Use your head a little."
Zhang Xian grimaced uncomfortably, and said, "Fine! I’ll head to Qujiang first then give you a call."
...
In so small county, in front of a bar.
A BMW slowly ca to a stop, a young man lead three beautiful won out of the car and into the bar, it was the gang led by Zhang Xian.
Qujiang is on the border of Huaxia, and it’s nearly three days’ drive from Tiandu, so they had to find a place to rest for the night to prepare for their continued journey the next day.
"Holy, beautiful won!"
The appearance of Fu iting, Dong Qian, and Duan Hong attracted the attention of the pedestrians.
What could they do? These won were stunning, and it was very rare to see such gorgeous won in the smaller population of the county. As soon as they appeared, they imdiately beca the center of attention.
anwhile, Zhang Xian beca the target of many envious stares. This guy, was actually accompanied by three won.
Zhang Xian, feeling the surrounding stares at him, scratched his nose and said, "Sigh, it’s always troubleso to bring you guys out. This is the real reason I didn’t want to bring you along."
"Enough with that." Fu iting gave Zhang Xian a sidelong look and asked, "Don’t you think it gives you a lot of face to be with us?"
Duan Hong said, "Exactly, look how envious those guys are!"
Dong Qian wasn’t used to the strange looks given by the people around them, and she seed a bit nervous. Her cheeks were flushed, making her look exceedingly adorable.
"Squeak..."
Suddenly, a Lexus ca rushing from a direction and stopped in front of the bar.
A young man got out of the car and was about to go in.
Upon laying his eyes on Fu iting, Duan Hong, and Dong Qian, his legs felt heavy as lead and he couldn’t take another step. His gaze was fixed on the three won, unable to look away.
Beauty, real goddamn beauty. A mature one, a seductive one, and a pure one, all types covered, very charming indeed.
After a gulp, he adjusted his clothes and strode up to Fu iting, saying with a smile, "Hello, beautiful ladies! Are you here for dinner?"
Fu iting was taken aback and asked, "If we’re not here for dinner, what else could we be here for?"
