30: Chapter 30: You Think You Can Just Leave Like That?
“Wan Kai, pay the money,” Zhao Wanting commanded Wan Kai.
Zhao Wanting’s father, Zhao Qihua, operated a listed group in Tianhai.
Two years earlier, Zhao Qihua had an accident and it was Wan Kai who saved his life.
Since then, Wan Kai had worked for Zhao Qihua’s group, performing exceptionally well and earning Zhao Qihua’s appreciation.
Ultimately, after discussing with his wife, they decided to make Wan Kai the Zhaos’ son-in-law by marriage.
Soon after, the marriage arrangent was settled.
Naturally, Zhao Wanting had protested repeatedly, but her objections were overruled by her parents.
As the wedding day approached, Zhao Wanting had even considered running away from ho.
However, three months ago, Zhao Qihua suddenly fell into a coma and had not woken up since.
Many renowned doctors in Tianhai were helpless against his condition.
This unexpected turn of events dissuaded Zhao Wanting from her plans to flee.
Hearing rumors that sotis remarkable figures appeared in the black market of dicinal herbs, Zhao Wanting, hopeful for a stroke of luck, ca to take a look.
After browsing around without spotting anyone peculiar, she was about to leave, disappointed, when she witnessed Ye Chenfeng using silver needles to save soone.
This rekindled her hopes, as she strongly sensed that Ye Chenfeng was the one who could awaken her father.
Wan Kai usually spent the Zhaos’ money.
Before falling into the coma, Zhao Wanting’s father had even given Wan Kai a check for one million yuan, so Zhao Wanting felt no guilt about making Wan Kai foot the bill, clearly aware it was the Zhaos’ money and not Wan Kai’s.
Wan Kai’s expression was extrely unpleasant.
He had just seen his fiancée in the arms of a strange man, and now he was expected to pay for this stranger?
He felt his cuckoldry was incredibly humiliating.
Thinking that it wasn’t ti to fall out with Zhao Wanting, Wan Kai suppressed the fire in his heart, managing a strained smile and took out fifty thousand yuan in cash from the black leather bag he carried, handing it to the simple and honest vendor.
After receiving the money, the vendor kept thanking Ye Chenfeng, which only compounded Wan Kai’s frustration.
He thought, “Does this bumpkin even have eyes?
I’m the one who paid!
Why thank him instead of ?”
“Hey, it was who gave you the money.
Aren’t you thanking the wrong person?” Wan Kai said arrogantly.
The vendor glanced at the slick Wan Kai and, scratching his head, responded, “You didn’t buy anything from .
Why should I thank you?”
Wan Kai nearly choked on the vendor’s retort.
Veins throbbed on his neck, his face turned beet-red, and he felt indescribably stifled inside.
The vendor handed the bag containing the Yun Teng Mushroom over to Ye Chenfeng, saying, “I’m truly grateful to you.
My na is Tie Niu, and I’ll surely repay you for your kindness soday.”
Tie Niu’s continuous thanks were heartfelt; he believed that Ye Chenfeng had bought the Yun Teng Mushroom purely to help him.
Thus, treating Ye Chenfeng as a benefactor seed appropriate to him.
In reality, Ye Chenfeng had gotten a great deal out of this.
The Yun Teng Mushroom was invaluable to him, and he had acquired five of them for only fifty thousand yuan.
With these Yun Teng Mushrooms, he estimated that his Soul Force would breakthrough to level three in one go.
Ye Chenfeng waved his hand and said, “Tie Niu, I, Ye Chenfeng, would like you to give your ho address.
I have so dical skills myself.
If I ever have the chance, I’ll visit and have a look at you.”
Ye Chenfeng requested Tie Niu’s ho address because in the future, he would need to find the exact location where the Yun Teng Mushroom grew.
Given the vastness of the Prival Forest, finding the precise spot would be very difficult.
Since Tie Niu’s father had discovered the Yun Teng Mushroom, he would certainly rember its location.
Tie Niu brought over a piece of white paper and wrote down a string of characters with his pen.
Each character was crooked and twisted, but one could barely make them out.
Tie Niu chuckled in his simple way and said, “My handwriting isn’t pretty, but it was my dad who taught !”
After putting away Tie Niu’s address, Ye Chenfeng chatted with Tie Niu for a bit before sending him off with so money to get his father treated.
Having said farewell to Tie Niu, Ye Chenfeng finished looking through the remaining stalls in the black market.
Luck didn’t strike again, but he was very satisfied with his haul for the day.
He also firmly decided that he must make a visit to the Prival Forest at the border in a few days.
The Yun Teng Mushroom he had bought from Tie Niu had been out of the soil for too long, or else Ye Chenfeng could have tried to cultivate and breed it anew.
The use of the Yun Teng Mushroom was not limited to enhancing strength; therefore, Ye Chenfeng wanted to find its exact location not only to increase his own power but also to transplant and cultivate it outside.
“Sir, can you co back with now to look at my father’s illness?” Zhao Wanting saw Ye Chenfeng preparing to leave the black market and imdiately showed an excited expression.
Ye Chenfeng nodded and said, “Sure, but stop calling ‘sir.’ It sounds awfully awkward, as if I’m so old man in your eyes?”
Hearing Ye Chenfeng’s words, the corners of Zhao Wanting’s mouth couldn’t help but curve into a slight smile as she asked, “Then what should I call you?”
Wan Kai was watching the warm chat between Ye Chenfeng and Zhao Wanting, and his face tensed up as if he was constipated; his eyes were fixed ominously on Ye Chenfeng.
Ye Chenfeng was extrely sensitive.
His intuition told him that Wan Kai was very gloomy and not a good person at all.
He couldn’t understand why a woman as pretty and likable as Zhao Wanting would be the fiancée of such a person, and he couldn’t help but feel she deserved better.
“You can call Chenfeng, or Brother Feng.
Whatever you like,” Ye Chenfeng said playfully.
Zhao Wanting’s cheeks reddened slightly.
Truth be told, she wasn’t familiar with Ye Chenfeng, and if it weren’t for his impressive dical skills, she wouldn’t have approached him at all.
She had never been this close to any man before!
“Keep away from my fiancée.
Don’t you see?
My fists don’t have eyes,” Wan Kai said, brandishing his so-called “casserole-sized” fists in front of Ye Chenfeng.
Ye Chenfeng replied nonchalantly, “Didn’t you just say she’s your fiancée?
That ans you two aren’t married yet, right?
So, keep your clamor to yourself.”
While they talked, Ye Chenfeng and the others had already reached the outside of the black market, where four burly n blocked their path.
Behind these n, Ye Chenfeng saw the middle-aged stall owner who had been selling fake Thousand-Year Ganoderma at the market.
“Thinking you can just leave like that?” The middle-aged man was sore about being publicly exposed by Ye Chenfeng for selling fake goods.
Otherwise, he might have already made a deal or two by now.
