Chapter 41
: Kindness from Zhao Jingjing
Kim Dae-sung, though puzzled, wisely chose not to press the matter further.
He simply chatted with Chen Huan in a warm and polite manner.
Then he talked about how the sauerkraut fish restaurant was doing brisk business yesterday.
In the end, I couldn't help but sigh, "I don't know how that chef suddenly had a breakthrough and made the fish taste absolutely delicious."
"I was so craving it, but unfortunately I couldn't get a number and didn't get to eat it."
Chen Huan smiled and said, "I guarantee you'll have something to eat for lunch today."
"Why?" Kim Dae-sung asked, puzzled.
"When you go to the restaurant, mention my name. My name is Chen Huan."
"I guarantee the people inside will give you face."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out.
"This kid is a bit eccentric, but he has an inexplicable charm about him." Jin Dacheng's eyes deepened as he watched Chen Huan mount his three-wheeled motorcycle and speed away.
Chen Huan strolled around the town, bought some ingredients, and also found a place to buy a very large and sturdy scooping net.
His idea was simple: once he got back, he would find some time to catch all the blackfish in the village again.
Judging from the scale yesterday, catching another three or four hundred catties shouldn't be a problem.
While Zhao Siming's family is in chaos these past few days and doesn't have time to seize resources, I'll make my own money first.
We'll make other plans after we resolve the matter with Sun Bailu.
For example, the mountains outside the village, although full of various dangers, also contain unlimited business opportunities and wealth.
We arrived at the village entrance not long afterward.
As we were revving the engine and about to drive in, a figure suddenly flashed out from behind a house.
She has a beautiful figure and is full of energy, especially her long, straight, and slender white legs, which are simply amazing.
A young and beautiful girl stood directly in front of Chen Huan's tricycle, her arms outstretched and her expression resolute.
Chen Huan was startled and slammed on the brakes.
Due to inertia, he was almost thrown off the erratic tricycle.
"Zhao Jingjing, have you lost your mind?"
"If you want to commit suicide, you can jump into the river, why did you stop my car?"
Chen Huan grimaced and cursed.
He thought Zhao Jingjing was playing this prank on him because she harbored resentment towards him.
Zhao Jingjing's pretty face now revealed anger and disgust.
She snorted coldly and said, "I wouldn't do anything like you, I'm doing just fine."
"Then why did you stop my car?"
"Is it because you've taken a liking to me that you're confessing your feelings in this unconventional way?" Chen Huan retorted without hesitation.
Actually, he didn't dislike Zhao Jingjing at all. In fact, perhaps because of the cultivation technique, he felt a faint urge to get closer to her after seeing her perfect figure and beautiful face.
But the thought that Zhao Jingjing was Zhao Siming's daughter made him want to provoke her and make her angry.
Zhao Jingjing was indeed furious and said angrily, "You're biting the hand that feeds you, not recognizing a kind heart."
"I shouldn't have wasted my precious morning time waiting here like an idiot for you."
"You filthy bastard, you made me get so many mosquito bites!"
Chen Huan looked at Zhao Jingjing's two white legs.
Sure enough, there were many red welts from mosquito bites on the surface, a shocking sight.
But as he watched, Chen Huan's gaze became somewhat strange, and the true energy within his body began to stir restlessly.
"What are you looking at?" Zhao Jingjing subconsciously took two steps back and reached out to cover her thighs.
"Cough cough, let me see where you got bitten by mosquitoes," Chen Huan explained weakly.
"Shameless, vulgar," Zhao Jingjing sneered coldly.
A blush appeared on her pretty face, but she didn't look too angry.
"If there's nothing else, I'll be going now." Chen Huan was a little afraid to face Zhao Jingjing's long legs any longer.
He muttered a couple of things and then prepared to change direction and leave.
"Wait a minute, I'm here to talk to you. I have something important to say!" Zhao Jingjing moved even closer, completely blocking the way.
"Then tell me! My time is very precious, and I have a lot of things to do." Chen Huan sounded very impatient.
But I was indeed a little curious.
Zhao Jingjing, the village chief's daughter whom he didn't get along with, was stubbornly blocking his way. What was she trying to do?
Zhao Jingjing snorted, then suddenly asked sarcastically, "What are you doing?"
"Are you going to steal fish from the river that belongs to the government, or secretly use wasps to harm people at night?"
Chen Huan frowned slightly.
Almost everyone in the village knew about the fishing trip.
But how did Zhao Jingjing become so sure that she was the one who did the wasp incident?
"I could tell from your expression that you were guilty. It really was you."
"My dad and the others were right, you rascal, how could you be so mean!" Zhao Jingjing said sarcastically, but also with a hint of annoyance.
"So you've come to confront me." Chen Huan sat on the tricycle, arms crossed, looking completely unconcerned.
Since he dared to do a series of things, he naturally wasn't worried about the trouble that would follow.
After all, he is very different now than he used to be.
"Chen Huan, you'd better run away quickly."
"While there's still time, escape as far away as possible and never come back to Lotus Village." Zhao Jingjing suddenly changed her tone and manner.
"What?"
"Miss Zhao, have you lost your mind? Don't you want to listen to what you're saying?" Chen Huan was completely bewildered and couldn't understand what was going on in Zhao Jingjing's mind.
A very complex expression appeared on Zhao Jingjing's face.
She stamped her foot and said, "I don't know why I came here to tell you."
"But if you don't leave now, someone will come after you soon, and it might even kill you."
"I'm not joking with you, nor am I trying to scare you. I just want to save your life. After all, we were classmates!"
Chen Huan's mind raced, and he gradually seemed to understand something. "That old bastard Zhao Siming wants to hire someone to kill me?"
"I'm not surprised by this, after all, I've been putting him through a lot these past two days."
"But you're actually going to ruin your father's plans just to help me?"
"If he finds out, I'll break your long, white legs!"
Zhao Jingjing glared at him. "Just like back in school, you're pretty smart."
"I just don't want my dad and brother to be involved in a murder case, can you understand that?"
"I've said everything I needed to say. Whether you want to live or die is up to you." With that, she turned and left in a huff.
"Thank you so much, Zhao Jingjing."
"Just based on what you just did, my impression of you has changed drastically." Chen Huan sat on the tricycle, his gaze distant.
Moments later, they roared into the village.
Chen Huan didn't take Zhao Jingjing's words about someone coming to deal with him too seriously.
With his inherited martial arts techniques and a wealth of skills, he wanted to see just how much trouble Zhao Siming could cause.
"I hope it's exciting, don't leave me disappointed."
He simply chatted with Chen Huan in a warm and polite manner.
