Chapter 340: Chapter 330: Like Wolves and Tigers, Taking the Initiative
"However, this information still needs verification," Ye Hongyiâs voice was cold and deep. "The biggest fear is that itâs another trap. After all, this news only came out after we arrived in the Philippines. It might just be aimed at us!"
Leng Baiyu sighed, "Seems like I was too arrogant back then. If it werenât for my assumption that my status could easily help my junior brother find the seven types of herbs, I might not have dragged him into this."
Now, the situation became even more complicated.
Because of her sensitive status, many people were watching her, and the news that she was collecting the seven herbs had spread. Now, the difficulty for Chen Xiao to collect all seven herbs had increased exponentially!
Chen Xiao consoled, "Senior sister, this has nothing to do with you. The blame lies with those who want to harm you. Besides, if it werenât for you using your status, I wouldnât have found six herbs so quickly."
"Speaking of which, youâre the real hero!"
Leng Baiyu remained silent. Everything has its pros and cons. Some would want to curry favor with her by offering herbs, while others wanted to harm her, using this as bait to bring her to ruin!
This current situation was inevitable.
Chen Xiao continued, "Second senior sister, while senior sister and I are returning to the mountain, please keep an eye on things over there. If the news is true, let me know immediately. Donât try to be brave. Iâll deal with my own matters."
Ye Hongyi understood that Chen Xiao didnât look down on her; he just feared she would, like Leng Baiyu, act rashly and get caught in a crisis.
She nodded, "Alright, Iâll keep an eye on it. You just go back with senior sister."
Afterwards, the three sisters of Leng Baiyu prepared to leave.
Before leaving, Leng Baiyu suddenly turned back, "Remember what I told you before."
Chen Xiao was taken aback, "What did you say?"
"Donât die on a womanâs stomach; itâs a pathetic death!" Leng Baiyuâs voice was crisp and clear.
Chen Xiaoâs face turned incredibly awkward, and the other women were too embarrassed to lift their heads.
"Senior sister, donât worry, I know my limits!" Chen Xiao grinned awkwardly, forcing a smile.
"From one turning into two, two into three... is this your so-called limit?" Leng Baiyu sighed, "The Hundred Countries Military Battle is about to start. I donât want to see you going off to battle with a goji berry cup in my stead, embarrassing me!"
With that, she left with Ye Hongyi and Lu Wushuang.
Zhang Yaqing asked, "When do you plan to leave?"
Chen Xiao pondered for a moment, "Planning to leave for Jinling tomorrow."
"Going to Jinling to find who?" Luo Qingliâs voice was filled with jealousy, "That widow from the Jiang Family?"
Chen Xiao coughed twice, "After all, I borrowed money from them, itâs only right to repay in person, right?"
"Youâd better only be going to repay money!" Luo Qingli smirked coldly.
"In one night, you might pay back a few hundred millions." Zhang Yaqing teased sarcastically.
"Letâs not worry about it; drink up and enjoy the present." Chen Xiao wrapped his arm around her.
"You..." Luo Qingli glared at him, "So youâre really not letting us work?"
"Whatâs more important, work or me? Iâm leaving soon." Chen Xiao looked pitiful.
Thinking of Chen Xiao leaving soon, both Luo Qingli and the other woman softened.
As for Lu Ruge, she was dragged into this battle circle, and although her face was filled with reluctance, knowing sheâd soon be returning to the Capital City and wouldnât have opportunities like this in the future, she ended up being the wildest one, even requesting a beauty treatment in the end.
This made Zhang Yaqing very displeased.
That was her special service!
How dare this woman snatch it?
Downstairs, Xu Yanran, Li Kani, and Li Biyun all had complicated looks in their eyes.
Li Kani made up her mind, gritting her teeth, "Tonight, Iâm going in too!"
Xu Yanran laughed, "You really donât care if he lives or dies, wanting him to die on a womanâs stomach?"
Li Kani couldnât help but retort, "As if letting him off the hook means others would too? Besides, heâs not that weak, right? He can handle three, surely one little girl like me is no threat?"
"Makes sense." Xu Yanran nodded, she thought... Li Kani had a point.
However, she didnât agree!
There needs to be some order to things, right?
Luo Qingli, Zhang Yaqing, and Lu Ruge eating first was understandable, but letting Li Kani get ahead was not!
Meanwhile, Li Biyun blinked her big eyes, curious about how this could be so fascinating, as to why these sisters were all clamoring for it like wolves and tigers.
After dinner, Xu Yanran thoughtfully brought Li Kani a bowl of sweet soup.
Taking the chance to have a heart-to-heart chat with Li Kani.
In no time, Li Kani started feeling sleepy and laid in bed breathing evenly, falling asleep.
Xu Yanran sighed inwardly.
This girl is just too naĂŻve...
Tonight, Chen Xiao belongs to her!
Li Kani?
Sheâll have to wait in line.
