"Hello..."
Hearing the slightly hoarse voice coming from the receiver, Sun ng quickly got serious!
He knew that on the other side of the phone was not just anyone, but a big shot from the Dark World of Lake Water County!
When he was eight, this big shot was already mixing in all sorts of circles, and now he had made a na for himself within the boundaries of Lake Water County, which is why many in the Dark World respectfully called him Eighth Master!
"Eighth Master, it's , I'm Sun ng!"
"Hmm! I recognized your voice. What is it you want?"
"Yes! I have a favor to ask of you!"
"Ask ? My ti is precious, you know that, right?"
Sensing so impatience from Eighth Master, Sun ng quickly said, "Of course, Eighth Master, I really have no other choice this ti! Two hundred thousand, as long as you can help take care of this, I'll give you two hundred thousand!"
Before, Sun ng had wanted to keep all of the two hundred thousand he got from Su Wei for himself, but now, he had given that up, knowing that if he kept that money, he wouldn't have any bargaining chips to sway Eighth Master with!
"Two hundred thousand? That's a decent chip! Tell , what's the matter?"
"Alright!"
After nodding quickly, Sun ng went on to articulate the detailed situation regarding Hu Xiaobei!
"Just a farr? I understand. I'll take care of it for you soon, but let's get one thing straight—if I don't see that two hundred thousand when it's ti, I won't be very pleasant, you get my aning?"
"Yes! I understand! I'll make sure the money is ready!"
Sun ng was quick to assure.
Sun ng knew Eighth Master's temper, so he definitely didn't dare to trick him, knowing that if he did, Eighth Master had countless ways to kill him!
"That's good! I'm hanging up."
"Okay!"
Hanging up the phone, Sun ng watched the distance with excitent. In the next mont, he scornfully muttered, "Hu Xiaobei, soon, I will make you kneel before and repent your wrongs! Guo iyu, you're the sa! Soon, you will beco my woman, and then, I'd like to see how you can still be so arrogant!"
...
"Hu Xiaobei? A damn farr, I really don't want to lift a finger, but after all, there's money to be made!"
In the villa, a middle-aged man dressed in black clothes spoke somberly.
He was that well-known Eighth Master from Lake Water County!
Generally speaking, he was mindful of his status, so he rarely dealt with farrs personally, but now, he felt he could make an exception, as the paynt was quite substantial.
Thinking so, after straightening his clothes, he quickly dialed an internal line, and as soon as the call connected, he said, "It's , go and find out who Hu Xiaobei is in Xiaohe Village for ! I want all his information!"
After giving the order, he leaned back in his chair contentedly, taking another brief rest. In his opinion, it was just a farr; there was no need to take it too seriously. He just needed to show up before the man to scare the piss out of him...
Hu Xiaobei was unaware that he had beco a target, at that mont he was riding his tricycle to the town...
Big River Town was very poor, with only one reasonably decent street!
Fortunately, despite the poverty, there was a pharmacy, so Hu Xiaobei quickly bought the acupuncture needles he needed.
After leaving the pharmacy, Hu Xiaobei prepared to head back, when he saw two people carrying large bags walking towards him not far away.
"They look familiar!"
Muttering to himself, Hu Xiaobei took a closer look and quickly recognized them. Without hesitation, he ran quickly towards them...
...
"Jiayuan, hold on a little longer, we're almost ho. Once there, we can have a good al!"
Hearing the encouraging voice, the girl carrying a luggage bag almost taller than herself gently shook her head and said, "Mom, I know! I'm not hungry right now; I can keep going for a long ti!"
Hearing her daughter's sensible words, Han Xueyao felt her heart wrench painfully.
She knew her daughter, Han Jiayan, really suffered a lot following her around!
Noticing that her mother had stopped, Han Jiayan was puzzled, "Mom, what's wrong? Let's hurry up!"
"Alright! I..."
Before she could finish, Han Xueyao heard approaching footsteps growing closer. Lifting her head, she saw a very familiar figure...
"Xiaobei?"
"Xueyao sister-in-law, Jiayuan sister, you're back!"
Seeing that it was indeed Hu Xiaobei, Han Xueyao said softly, "Yes, we're back!"
"Give the stuff!"
In the midst of speaking, Hu Xiaobei didn't wait for a response and took their luggage!
"This..."
Han Xueyao was about to say sothing, but she saw Hu Xiaobei had already put their belongings on a tricycle!
After placing everything properly, Hu Xiaobei turned to them and said, "You must be hungry, right? Let's go eat together!"
"No, let's just go back to the village!"
Han Xueyao, not wanting Hu Xiaobei to waste money, quickly waved her hands!
Knowing Han Xueyao was worried about spending money, Hu Xiaobei quickly said, "Sister-in-law, what are you saying? It's not every day you co back. I naturally should treat you to a al, consider it a welco back!"
Saying this, Hu Xiaobei looked at Han Jiayan and asked, "Jiayuan sister, do you agree with brother Xiaobei's suggestion?"
Feeling a bit hungry, Han Jiayan hesitated for a mont, "Brother Xiaobei, I'll go with what you say!"
"So good!"
Smiling, Hu Xiaobei didn't hesitate to push the tricycle straight to a small shop by the roadside!
Big River Town was poor, and there weren't many decent restaurants, so Hu Xiaobei really didn't have much choice...
Entering the restaurant and after ordering, Hu Xiaobei sat down at the table with them!
At this mont, Hu Xiaobei took a good look at them and realized both were much more haggard than before they had left. He knew they must have suffered while they were away!
Earlier, due to that accident, Han Xueyao's husband had died. Feeling uncomfortable staying in the village, she had left with Han Jiayan to their maternal ho...
After they left, Hu Xiaobei had thought they would never return, and he was very sad. Now that he had run into them again, he was overjoyed!
When they were little, Han Jiayan often played with Hu Xiaobei, so he had deep affection for her.
Thinking this, the first dish was served...
He quickly poured water for them and spoke, "Sister-in-law, Jiayuan sister, I didn't know what you liked to eat, so I just ordered a few dishes at random. If you don't like them, just order sothing else!"
Hearing Hu Xiaobei's words, Han Xueyao quickly said, "It's okay, we can eat anything!"
"That's good!"
Smiling, Hu Xiaobei looked at Han Jiayan and said, "Jiayuan sister, go on, eat! What's wrong? Are you shy? Or do you not recognize ? I'm the Xiaobei brother who used to catch fish in the river with you! If you can't rember, I can catch fish with you in the river again later."
Hu Xiaobei said this because he felt Han Jiayan was acting reserved.
Pfft!
Hearing Han Jiayan laugh, Hu Xiaobei breathed a sigh of relief...
At that mont, he heard Han Jiayan speak softly, "Brother Xiaobei, how could I possibly forget you!"
"That's good! Eat up!"
"Okay!"
After nodding vigorously, Han Jiayan picked up her chopsticks...
Earlier, Han Jiayan felt a sense of estrangent, but now, knowing the person sitting across from her was still the Xiaobei brother who had cared for her since childhood, she instantly relaxed...
