Ch 75: Sense of Crisis
“Brother Zhihang, these are all Cooling Tea Herbal Packs.” Du Qingyang handed a large package of Cooling Tea Herbal Packs to Xiang Zhihang.
This was the second time Xiang Zhihang had proactively come to ask for Cooling Tea Herbal Packs. Every time he opened a branch store, he would come to Du Qingyang to ask for them. Currently, Xiang Zhihang had opened three “Zhi Hang Qian Li Store” in three different towns.
However, could Xiang Zhihang really drink all those Cooling Tea Herbal Packs? Du Qingyang remembered that the portion of Cooling Tea Herbal Packs she gave him the first time would last for half a year. Did he really finish them all?
Of course not. The stock was all stored in Xiang Zhihang’s rented house.
Having made money, Xiang Zhihang no longer needed to live on the mountain and rented a house in Dong Town. In the two-bedroom apartment, one room was specifically used to store Cooling Tea Herbal Packs.
Why did he want so many Cooling Tea Herbal Medicine Packs? For no reason, just looking at them made him happy. Xiang Zhihang was happy to have more of Qingyang’s things stored at home.
After taking the herbal medicine packs, Xiang Zhihang didn’t rush to leave but sat down and had a long chat with Du Qingyang.
Xiang Zhihang reported his daily life and the things that happened in the store to Du Qingyang like a running account. He talked incessantly, and Du Qingyang listened impatiently.
Seeing Xiang Zhihang’s enthusiastic appearance, Du Qingyang was too embarrassed to interrupt him. She could only nod occasionally and respond with a word or two. Others said that Xiang Zhihang was taciturn, but why did she feel that Xiang Zhihang was lively, cheerful, and particularly talkative?
At this moment, there were only Xiang Zhihang and Du Qingyang in the Du Family Home, and Xiang Zhihang felt especially warm and cozy. Naturally, he was unwilling to leave, so he had endless topics to talk about.
However, the scene that he thought was warm and cozy was broken by an uninvited guest.
“Cough, cough… I’m here for Acupuncture.” Ding Haoyuan’s appearance caused Xiang Zhihang to revert to being taciturn, and Du Qingyang’s ears finally had some peace.
Xiang Zhihang raised his head and observed Ding Haoyuan.
Tall and thin, it was obvious that he was underdeveloped and didn’t have a bit of masculine aura.
Wearing a pair of glasses, it was obvious that he was lazy and didn’t do eye exercises, not a good student.
His facial features were not outstanding at all, it was obvious that he was just Passerby A.
No matter how Xiang Zhihang looked at it, he felt that Ding Haoyuan was unpleasant. Compared to himself, Ding Haoyuan was too inferior. There was no way around it; a guy as excellent as him was hard to find even with a lantern.
“Oh, it’s Xiao Yuan Zi? Come, have a seat.”
The mouthful of Cooling Tea that Xiang Zhihang had just drunk immediately spewed out. Xiao Yuan Zi? How could Qingyang call him so affectionately? Who exactly was this Passerby A?
Xiang Zhihang began to feel nervous and had a sense of crisis, staring intently at Ding Haoyuan.
Ding Haoyuan rolled his eyes. Stare all you want; who cares about being called Xiao Yuan Zi? This name sounded strange, and he always felt like it was the name of those eunuchs in ancient times.
As a fellow male, Ding Haoyuan easily sensed Xiang Zhihang’s hostility towards him; it could be said that he was jealous.
Unexpectedly, Du Qingyang, who was unseemly like a swindler, also had someone who liked her. This Big Brother’s preferences were truly special.
Ding Haoyuan ignored Xiang Zhihang and didn’t respond to Du Qingyang. He silently sat down in front of Du Qingyang and stretched out his hand. He should just quickly finish the Acupuncture and leave.
So, Passerby A really came to get treatment. Xiang Zhihang breathed a slight sigh of relief. However, his gaze still didn’t shift away; he had to continue staring to prevent Passerby A from having any improper behavior. Who told his future Little Wife to be so beautiful? He couldn’t help but be wary.
Ding Haoyuan felt uncomfortable all over from being stared at and was filled with anger.
An extremely strange aura permeated the air, impossible to dispel.
It was the two young men’s silent contest, but Du Qingyang was completely unaware. Because she was an excellent doctor, when she worked, she could forget everything around her.
Until An Wei shouted as he rushed in, breaking this strange tranquility.
“Sister, the Half-Day Immortal’s house is on fire!”
All three of them raised their heads at the same time. Just as they were thinking about preparing to help put out the fire, An Wei added, “Later, the fire was extinguished.”
◈◈◈
The fire had already been put out, so why was he shouting so frantically?
Du Qingyang didn’t say a word and lowered her head to continue inserting the needles.
Ding Haoyuan rolled his eyes again. As expected, the people around Du Qingyang were also unseemly and had something wrong with their brains.
Xiang Zhihang’s gaze shifted to An Wei’s body, staring at him thoughtfully. This guy was finding an excuse to get close to Qingyang! He had ulterior motives.
As soon as Xiang Zhihang’s gaze swept over, An Wei felt a chill attack him and suddenly shivered. No! It wasn’t what Big Boss was thinking! An Wei felt wronged in his heart; if he had known that Big Boss was also here, he wouldn’t have come.
“Sister, it was Chang Hua and Chang Ba who started the fire.”
“I heard that Sister once reminded Chang Hua and Chang Ba that they would have bad luck for these three days?”
An Wei quickly explained that he had heard that this matter was related to Du Qingyang, so he had rushed over.
“Hahahaha…” As soon as she heard the names Chang Hua and Chang Ba, Du Qingyang thought of the fall the two had taken and let out a magical laughter.
Ding Haoyuan covered his ears with one hand. The unseemly girl’s laughter was also so unseemly.
Xiang Zhihang and An Wei looked at Du Qingyang in confusion at the same time. What was happening?
So, Du Qingyang began to concoct a story in an unseemly manner again.
Du Qingyang observed that Chang Hua and Chang Ba’s Yintang were dark, so she privately divined a divination for the two of them. Unexpectedly, the resulting divination image was terrifying.
According to the divination image, Chang Hua and Chang Ba had attracted bad luck, which would continue non-stop, and there was even a danger to their lives.
“I also told them the method to resolve it, but unfortunately, they didn’t believe it. Then I can’t help them either.” After saying that, Du Qingyang sighed deeply.
Xiang Zhihang blinked. Qingyang proactively helped the two of them with divination? And even revealed the method to resolve it? This behavior didn’t seem like Qingyang at all. But did the Chang Family give her a huge sum of money? Otherwise, Qingyang wasn’t one to meddle in other people’s business.
An Wei, on the other hand, had a face full of admiration. Sister Qingyang was so accurate; the two from the Chang Family really had been having bad luck, bringing the bad luck to the Half-Day Immortal’s house.
“Sister, I think you’re more like Big Boss! No, you are Big Boss!” An Wei added in his heart, Sister, you, this Big Boss, are even stronger than Xiang Zhihang, this future Big Boss.
Xiang Zhihang coughed lightly in dissatisfaction.
“Sister is the current Big Boss, and Brother Zhihang is the future potential Big Boss.” An Wei quickly added, not daring to offend Xiang Zhihang.
Ding Haoyuan raised his eyes to look at the sky. This was truly a group of lunatics. A swindler could also be a Big Boss? Then wouldn’t he be going to heaven?
“Young man, I advise you to read more books.” Ding Haoyuan couldn’t help but advise An Wei.
Only then did An Wei notice Ding Haoyuan’s existence. This person, who was about the same age as him, was actually educating him in the tone of an elder. Clearly, he didn’t believe what he said.
“Outsider, that’s because you don’t know how amazing my Sister is!” An Wei coughed twice and began to recount the scene he had seen at the Half-Day Immortal’s house.
