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!”
