266: Chapter 266: Storytelling 266: Chapter 266: Storytelling Chen Yang fell silent imdiately after hearing this conversation.
The logic that Wu Kexin could understand was not lost on Chen Yang either.
Thus, after a few minutes of silence, Chen Yang nodded: “The mayor is right, it really is that kind of situation.”
Having said that, Chen Yang spoke no further.
He lowered his head and continued eating.
“Chen…”
Yang Ruoxi wanted to say sothing.
But then she thought about her lack of understanding of business matters and held back her words.
“Chen Yang, what are you thinking?”
Yang Ruoxi said nothing, but Li Han started questioning.
She was very curious about Chen Yang’s attitude.
Curious about what Chen Yang would actually do with that plot of land!
Chen Yang took a few bites of rice, then looked up and t Li Han’s gaze: “My thoughts are simple.”
“The Gu Family wants the land, right?
Then they need to show so sincerity.”
“This sincerity isn’t just about money, but involves Gu Ming personally apologizing to old Mr.
Zhang and to .”
“Otherwise, even if that plot of land rots in my hands, the Gu Family can forget about having it.”
Chen Yang said these words with great determination.
Seeing Chen Yang’s resolute expression, the three won were slightly stunned.
It was the first ti they had seen Chen Yang so determined and serious.
“Understood.”
Li Han was stunned for more than ten seconds before she reacted.
Afterward, she exchanged looks with Wu Kexin, communicating through their gazes.
“Chen Yang, is this really what you are thinking?
If it is, then I’ll convey your thoughts to the mayor and have him relay them to the Gu Family.”
Wu Kexin said.
“Of course.
Otherwise, do you think I’m just joking around?
From the beginning, I only wanted to vent at the Gu Family.
As long as they are willing to let vent, there is room for negotiation,”
Chen Yang nodded, making it clear that he was serious about everything he said.
“Okay, I understand.
I’ll go call the mayor now.”
Wu Kexin got up and went to a distant place to make the call alone.
Chen Yang glanced at Wu Kexin’s retreating figure, feeling a slight sense of anticipation.
He was eager to see if the Gu Family would soften and show the sincerity he demanded.
Or if they would intensify their efforts against him.
If they softened, then Chen Yang would sincerely be willing to sell them the land.
But if they intensified their efforts, he wouldn’t hesitate to properly settle accounts with Gu Ming!
After finishing the al, Chen Yang and the Yang Ruoxi siblings sat still at the original spot, quietly waiting for Wu Kexin to finish her call.
It took about ten minutes or so, and then Wu Kexin finished her call.
After the call, a smile appeared on her face.
“How did it go?
What did the mayor say after he knew my attitude?”
Chen Yang asked with a smile.
“The mayor didn’t say much, just that he would convey your thoughts to the Gu Family and try his best to facilitate a resolution and a win-win situation between you and them!”
Wu Kexin answered with a smile.
“Oh!
All right then, I’ll wait for him to facilitate a resolution and win-win situation with the Gu Family!”
Chen Yang smiled calmly, his anticipation growing stronger.
After dinner, Chen Yang and the three won hung out at the village head for a while.
Everyone, after eating dinner, didn’t leave imdiately but gathered at the village head, chatting amiably.
Adults, children, won, widows, all gathered together, making the village head extraordinarily lively.
Yang Ruoxi liked lively atmospheres, so the four of them stayed at the village head past ten o’clock before going ho.
After going ho and taking a shower, Yang Ruoxi was initially about to kick Chen Yang out.
But Chen Yang persistently cajoled and pleaded, claiming that Wu Kexin needed him at any ti for her wounds, and thus he stayed in the room.
However, the three won made him a bed on the floor and did not let him on the bed.
But that was enough.
As long as he could stay in the room, it was fine.
Chen Yang lay on the bed with his hands behind his head, staring at the ceiling, gleefully thinking about how to get into bed next.
A floor bed, however, was not enough for him.
After the three won got into bed, they didn’t go straight to sleep.
Instead, they lay in bed, playing and horsing around for a while.
After playing for a while, Yang Ruoxi poked her head out from the bed.
“Chen Yang, are you bored?”
Chen Yang turned his head to look at her, “Not really, why?”
“Huh.”
Yang Ruoxi exhaled, “I’m so bored!
I can’t sleep, and there’s nothing fun to do.”
After saying this, she withdrew back into the bed.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yang imdiately had an idea.
He sat up and then moved to the edge of the bed, nudging Yang Ruoxi’s shoulders.
“Bored, are you?
How about I tell you a story?”
Chen Yang said with a smile.
When Yang Ruoxi heard that Chen Yang was going to tell a story, not only did she beco interested,
but Li Han and Wu Kexin also curiously gathered around.
“Sure!
Chen Yang, tell us a story; we can’t sleep and are quite bored.”
“Yeah, so boring, go on, tell it, we are all listening.”
…
The three won nodded in agreent, highly approving of Chen Yang’s suggestion.
“Okay!
Then I’ll tell you a story, and you’ll fall asleep as you listen.”
Chen Yang casually turned off the room’s lights.
Then he too lay back down.
“Chen Yang, start telling, we’re waiting to hear it.”
Yang Ruoxi also excitedly lay down, ready to listen to the story.
“Alright, then I’ll start.”
Chen Yang nodded and then began.
“A long, long ti ago…”
Chen Yang’s storytelling was quite normal in the beginning, and the three won listened intently.
But just when they were fully engrossed, the story’s scene suddenly changed, becoming very eerie.
The eerie story, combined with the pitch-dark environnt, instantly made the three won tense.
They even started to shiver.
However, they were so captivated that none of them stopped Chen Yang from continuing.
Seeing the mild reactions of the three won, the story beca eerier as Chen Yang continued, turning it almost entirely into a horror story.
“In the end…
the person crawled slowly…
up from under the bed…”
Chen Yang narrated the eerie story in a creepy tone…
Just as he reached the climax of the story,
“Ah!”
Yang Ruoxi couldn’t take it anymore, shrieking loudly and jumping down from her bed onto Chen Yang’s floor bed.
The story was already frightening, and to scare them even more, Chen Yang had described the creepy scene as taking place on the bed.
After jumping down, Yang Ruoxi imdiately clung tightly to Chen Yang, terrified.
Yang Ruoxi was not the only one scared; Wu Kexin and Li Han were not much braver.
They had managed to hold themselves still, but Yang Ruoxi’s scream and jump made them unable to resist doing the sa.
They quickly jumped down from their beds onto Chen Yang’s floor bed.
And both clung tightly to Chen Yang, shivering…
“Chen Yang, you did this on purpose, telling such a scary story so late at night.”
Wu Kexin was so scared, she tightly gripped Chen Yang’s left hand and wouldn’t let go.
Yang Ruoxi clung to Chen Yang’s right hand: “It must have been deliberate…
You scared to death; I don’t dare to sleep in my bed now…”
Yang Ruoxi said with a slight cry in her voice.
It seed she was genuinely frightened.
