624: Chapter 622 The Real Reason 624: Chapter 622 The Real Reason And upon hearing this, Gu Hongwei’s expression was filled with utter astonishment.
His eyes were wide open, seemingly unable to believe what Wu Kexin had said.
However, seeing Wu Kexin’s resolute expression, he did not dare to act rashly anymore.
He could only glare at Chen Yang angrily before leaving with his men.
With Gu Hongwei’s order, those bodyguards retreated one after another, leaving the courtyard of Chen Yang’s house.
Gao Ya also gave Chen Yang a complex look before she too left the place.
Watching the Gu Family leave in an instant, now it was Chen Yang’s turn to be dumbfounded.
“They all left just like that?” Chen Yang wore a face full of surprise.
He had been ready to let Wu Kexin reveal her background to put some pressure on Gu Hongwei.
But he had not expected it to be so effective that Gu Hongwei would leave without another word.
Chen Yang was very surprised on the inside, but after that surprise, another wave of astonishment hit him.
Because he felt that he might have underestimated Wu Kexin’s background.
Initially, he thought that Wu Kexin came from an unusual place, but at most, a large conglomerate like the Gu Family, but looking at the situation today.
Wu Kexin’s family seemed to carry much more weight than the Gu Family.
With this in mind, Chen Yang’s first reaction was to ask Wu Kexin about her family’s actual status.
But it was Wu Kexin who spoke first.
“They’ve all gone, can you clean up the yard quickly?
It’s all smelling of gasoline; if someone walking by tomorrow smells it, it might cause some trouble,” Wu Kexin said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yang was taken aback for a moment, then sniffed with his nose, realizing that the smell of gasoline was indeed very strong.
So he did not rush to ask, and simply nodded his head, went into the house to get the cleaning tools, and began cleaning the backyard.
Wu Kexin was not idle either and helped with what she could on the side.
Logically, cleaning up a yard would certainly be a quick task for two people.
But the amount of gasoline Chen Yang had spilled was so excessive that the smell persisted.
Thus, the two of them had to clean over and over again repeatedly.
By the time they had completely finished cleaning, the sky was already bright, and the sun was about to rise.
Shall I make you some breakfast?” After cleaning up, Chen Yang did not rush to rest but first asked Wu Kexin if she was hungry.
Wu Kexin touched her flat stomach, glanced sideways at Chen Yang, and said, “It’s been all night, what do you think?”
Chen Yang chuckled awkwardly and hurried into the kitchen to make noodles.
After Wu Kexin put away the brooms and other tools, she went inside to wait.
It wasn’t long before Chen Yang came in with two bowls of steaming hot noodles.
Chen Yang handed Wu Kexin a pair of chopsticks and placed a bowl of noodles in front of her.
Starving by this time, Wu Kexin said okay and started eating right away.
Chen Yang did much the same, picked up his chopsticks, and began eating noodles.
The two of them, starved as they were, finished the noodles in no time.
After finishing the noodles, Wu Kexin immediately sneezed and looked very tired from a night without sleep.
Chen Yang saw this and felt very distressed.
“Go sleep in my room for a while, you haven’t slept all night, you should rest up,” Chen Yang said with concern.
Wu Kexin felt a warm feeling in her heart.
With an “Mm-hmm,” she got up and went to Chen Yang’s room to sleep.
Having not slept all night, she was indeed very exhausted.
Lying on the bed, it took her only a few minutes to fall asleep.
When Chen Yang came back after cleaning up the dishes, he had wanted to chat with Wu Kexin and ask about the situation at her home, but seeing that she had already fallen asleep, he had no choice but to let it be.
He quietly closed the door and left the house.
Wu Kexin hadn’t slept all night and was extremely tired and needed to catch up on sleep, but Chen Yang’s physical constitution allowed him to stay up all night without any problem.
So, he didn’t bother trying to sleep and went straight out towards the greenhouse.
It was just past eight, almost nine o’clock.
Many villagers who worked in the mines were just about to head to work at the mines.
On his way to the greenhouse, Chen Yang naturally bumped into them.
Villagers from other villages greeted Chen Yang warmly, and he responded with a smile to each one.
But when the villagers from Liuhe saw Chen Yang, they greeted him and then asked curiously about the commotion at his home the night before.
Caught off guard by the question, Chen Yang hesitated for a moment, then laughed it off with an excuse, “Nothing much, just had the TV volume up a bit because I couldn’t sleep.”
Well, we better get going, Yang Zi,” they said after hearing his explanation, and then left for work.
Chen Yang then arrived at the greenhouse.
He had come to the greenhouse to check on the patch of land with wheat straw and see how it was doing.
Yesterday, the wild mushrooms on that patch had already sprouted.
So today, Chen Yang had high hopes for that piece of land.
And indeed, the situation did not disappoint him—those wild mushrooms that had sprouted yesterday had grown quickly and matured.
Moreover, it appeared that they still had the potential to grow.
“It seems that burying straw is the reason why the wild mushrooms are growing bigger and becoming tastier,” Chen Yang concluded as he kneeled down, examining closely, and verified that the straw was indeed making the wild mushrooms at the edge of the village thrive!
Understanding this, Chen Yang couldn’t help but feel excited.
He was about to take out his phone to share the good news with Li Han and the others first.
But before he could make the call, his own phone rang first.
Looking at the caller ID, it was from the construction team that built greenhouses.
A couple of days ago, Chen Yang had contacted them to come and work on expanding the greenhouse.
However, they had been busy and weren’t able to come immediately, and now they were calling to tell Chen Yang that they could come over today.
“Alright, I’m in the village, come over now,” Chen Yang replied with a smile.
After hanging up, he hurriedly watered the plot of wild mushrooms and then left the greenhouse.
He began to wander around the village.
He had been busy these past few days and hadn’t had the opportunity to select a site yet, but with the construction team about to arrive, it was time to choose a location for the new greenhouse.
After walking around the village, Chen Yang ended up choosing two cornfields near the existing greenhouse of the breeding farm.
The terrain of those two fields was not very flat but was quite spacious.
But most importantly, corn was the crop on these fields, and they were close to the breeding farm’s greenhouse, making it very convenient for management and maintenance once the construction was completed.
“These two will do,” he decided.
Chen Yang then turned around, planning to go to the village to inquire whose land these were.
He wanted to lease them as soon as possible so that the construction could start immediately when the crew arrived.
