Chen Dong only felt his scalp tingle. He never expected that his wife would also win a teacher’s housing unit; after all, there were only ten spots available this time! It made him feel incredulous.
The two of them had participated in several public lotteries before, but they had never been successful.
Both of them had won.
"Husband, do you think it’s because of Xu Wendong?" Wang Luyao asked cautiously. Aside from Xu Wendong, she couldn’t think of any other possibility.
Chen Dong couldn’t calm down: "He’s just a driver, could he really have so much influence?"
Wang Luyao said dismissively: "Even though he’s a driver, he knows a lot of important people in the county. If I’m not wrong, the reason why we won the lottery is definitely because of him."
Chen Dong felt his wife made sense: "Then we should really thank him."
Wang Luyao smiled and said: "I’ll go buy some groceries tonight and make a few special dishes, and we’ll drink with him." As she said this, a wave of anticipation rose in her heart.
She wanted to fulfill her promise with Xu Wendong to eat popsicles!
Just as Xu Wendong finished his cold shower and changed his clothes.
Ye Zhirou came to the east chamber.
With a trace of inexplicable nervousness on her face, especially her innocent and clear eyes filled with curiosity: "Benefactor Xu, may I ask you a question?"
"What question?" Xu Wendong actually liked this little nun.
Not because of her adorable appearance.
But because she was very sincere.
She asked whenever she didn’t understand.
This point made her far better than her self-righteous master.
Ye Zhirou asked, "What is love?"
Xu Wendong almost sprayed the water in his mouth, clearly not expecting Ye Zhirou to ask such a question.
Ye Zhirou couldn’t help but ask, "Is this question very difficult to answer?"
"Not really..." Xu Wendong organized his words and said, "How should I put it, your question is indeed not easy to answer, but it can be answered with body language."
Ye Zhirou was full of excitement: "What kind of body language? Can you show me?"
Xu Wendong smiled bitterly: "This kind of thing requires a man and a woman to cooperate!"
Ye Zhirou asked excitedly: "Can I cooperate with you?"
Xu Wendong was taken aback: "Why are you interested in this topic?"
Ye Zhirou said listlessly: "I’ve lived in Jingxin Hermitage since I was little, completely unfamiliar with the outside world, but my master wants me to forget all emotions and desires."
"I also want to forget emotions and desires, but as you said before, how can I talk about forgetting without experiencing love and hate?"
"So, I want to know what love is. Only by experiencing it can I truly let go and forget."
Xu Wendong was relieved and then sighed, "If your master were as eager to learn as you, her cultivation level would certainly be higher."
"However, I can’t make love with you."
Ye Zhirou’s eyes revealed a hint of disappointment: "Why not?"
"This matter can’t be explained in one or two sentences!" Although Xu Wendong thought of himself as somewhat unscrupulous, he would never harm the naive little nun Ye Zhirou.
"Once I’ve tidied up, I’ll take my leave." He didn’t linger much longer, found an excuse and left True Dragon Zen Court.
After going down the mountain,
Xu Wendong received a call from Chen Dong, informing him that both he and his wife had won the lottery, thanking him for his help, and saying they would host a banquet in their home that evening to celebrate.
After a brief conversation, Xu Wendong hung up the phone, only to receive a WeChat message from Wang Luyao, which included a suggestive photo showing off her sexy body and charming expression.
Wang Luyao sent Xu Wendong a seductive voice message: "Do you dish?"
Xu Wendong immediately felt parched: "I really like it!"
He was looking forward to the banquet that night.
Then he called Yuan Wei to thank him for helping Chen Dong and his wife win the lottery.
Afterwards, he drove to a smartphone store in the county, bought a phone, and got an unlimited data SIM card, planning to give it to Ye Zhirou.
After all, the little nun didn’t understand the world, and this phone could help her better understand it.
By the time he finished, it was already noon.
Considering that Bai Lu was about to get off work, he drove back to the investment promotion bureau and saw Bai Lu preparing to catch a taxi at the entrance.
Bai Lu’s mood was very poor, which was evident just from her face.
After getting in the car, Bai Lu said, "The county has decided that tomorrow at ten o’clock, Meng Changhai will lead the signing of the contract with Ms. Ye."
Xu Wendong smiled and said, "There will be a good show tomorrow!"
Bai Lu was still a bit worried and couldn’t help but ask: "Are you sure Ms. Ye won’t sign the contract with them?"
Hearing Xu Wendong say this, Bai Lu felt a bit relieved. After all, Xu Wendong had been constantly by Ye Qingxin’s side collecting marine products.
But what would happen tomorrow was still unknown.
After dropping Bai Lu off at the civil servant complex, Xu Wendong received a call from Ye Qingxin, informing him that Su Xiaodie had arrived in Lianyun County and brought the medicinal herbs he needed, asking him to pick them up.
"Let’s meet at True Dragon Zen Court. I’ll wait for you there."
The reason Xu Wendong wanted to go to True Dragon Zen Court was to find a room to store the herbs. After all, where he lived was very small and couldn’t accommodate so many herbs.
Just as Xu Wendong reached the end of the North Mountain Peninsula road, Ye Qingxin and Su Xiaodie arrived by car.
Su Xiaodie wore a cheongsam dress with a black cloak over it. Her skin was like ivory, beautiful and alluring, exuding an air of a distinguished young lady.
Behind her was a commercial vehicle containing ten sacks, all filled with the medicinal herbs Xu Wendong needed.
After a brief greeting,
Xu Wendong took out that amulet.
"Doing business with Mister Xu is so delightful!" Su Xiaodie received the amulet like it was a Supreme Treasure, and had people move the herbs into the Zen Court, while she stood side by side with Xu Wendong: "Has Mister Xu heard that Nie Yunchuan is dead? And that the alchemy furnace he bought with a huge sum has also gone missing?"
Xu Wendong glanced at her indifferently: "Why does Miss Su mention this matter?"
Su Xiaodie smiled brightly: "Mister Xu need not be nervous. Our Su Residence will strictly protect customer information. However, Ye Gucheng’s influence spans across Great Xia. It won’t be long before he finds out the result he wants."
When she learned that Nie Yunchuan had been killed and the alchemy furnace was stolen, she was also shocked.
After all, Nie Yunchuan was an invincible existence besides the six Great Grandmasters.
After the shock, she had the answer in her heart.
She knew who killed Nie Yunchuan.
Who else could it be but Xu Wendong?
