Chapter 16: CH 16

Liao Xingyuan looked at Duan Changqing trembling with anger: “You…you…”

In Duan Changqing’s eyes, this Liao Xingyuan is just a child.

He went downstairs to show his sovereignty, but didn’t plan to do anything else to the child, and immediately asked, “What about me?”

Is this provocation? This must be a provocation, right? Liao Xingyuan looked at Xie Yunnan aggrievedly: “Brother Yunnan, why do you like such a person?!”

Xie Yunnan was embarrassed by the reaction of his companion beast, but he didn’t think there was anything wrong with him liking Duan Changqing. “I’ve always liked this type, what’s the problem?”

“What’s the problem” again!

Liao Xingyuan was so angry that he turned around and left.

Xie Yunnan was very happy to see him leave, but when the neighbors came over, he couldn’t take it anymore.

“Xiao Xie, your relationship is really good.”

“Yunnan, I didn’t expect you to like Xiao Duan so much.”

“Your companion animal hasn’t grown up… it’s cute.”

“I didn’t expect your puppy to be like this, haha…”

“Xiao Xie, I really can’t tell… But it’s normal for newlyweds. You must’ve had a good time last night?”

…

Xie Yunnan: “…”

Duan Changqing hugged Xiaobai and and obediently smiled at everyone.

On the other side, after leaving the fingers, Liao Xingyuan grew angrier the more he thought about things.

He didn’t understand why Xie Yunnan didn’t like his cousin, but liked someone who was nothing.

Wearing such thick makeup, the one called Duan Changqing can’t even compare to him in any aspect, let alone his cousin!

When he finally returned to Liao’s house, Liao Xingyuan saw Liao Muye as soon as he entered.

“You went to the fringe area again?” Liao Muye asked.

“Yeah.” Liao Xingyuan responded.

Liao Muye’s eyes flashed with irony.

Xie Yunnan’s means were high enough. Hanging him, as well as Liao Xingyuan.1hanging as in hooking or seducing or charming

In his last life, he fell in love with Xie Yunnan at first sight. After he fell in love with Xie Yunnan, Liao Xingyuan often said good things about Xie Yunnan in front of him.

Only later did he find out that Liao Xingyuan also liked Xie Yunnan.

“It’s rare for you to come back so soon.” Liao Muye said.

He regretted it in his last life, but Liao Xingyuan had no regrets at all. He happily served as the Minister of Propaganda in Xie Yunnan’s new government.

“Brother, did you know? Xie Yunnan is married.” Liao Xingyuan said.

“What did you say?” Liao Muye was stunned. After he was reborn, he paid close attention to Xie Yunnan, but because he was very busy these days, he didn’t know much about Xie Yunnan’s situation.

“I said Xie Yunnan is married,” Liao Xingyuan said angrily. “He is married to someone from the fringes. What’s good about that person who looks so ugly? Why does he like that person?”

The more he spoke, the more wrong he felt. Suddenly, Liao Xingyuan realized something.

Maybe he… likes Xie Yunnan?

His companion beast is very weak and is not valued at all in the Liao family, which was why he ran away from home to the fringes in the first place.

Xie Yunnan took him in. He lived with Xie Yunnan. Although he felt dissatisfied everywhere, in fact… he really liked Xie Yunnan.

No, it can’t be!

Xie Yunnan was just an ordinary person born in a fringe area, and his companion beast was a dog. How could he like such a person?

It was incredible enough for his cousin to have special feelings for Xie Yunnan. The original reason he wanted Xie Yunnan to be with his cousin was because he wanted to laugh at his cousin’s expense.

His cousin was outstanding in every way, but ended up with such a man…how interesting!

Various thoughts flashed through Liao Xingyuan’s mind, and he lost the desire to Liao Muye, so he turned around and left.

Liao Muye was stunned for a while, and wanted to go to the fringe area to have a look.

After taking a few steps, he realized that something was wrong.

He didn’t believe Xie Yunnan would get married.

This person has a deep mind, and suddenly getting married might be him playing hard-to-find.

If he hurries over as soon as he learns of it, maybe he’ll be acting just as he intended.

Xie Yunnan never got married in his last life, how could he get married so casually in this life? There must be other reasons for him to do so.

Didn’t Liao Xingyuan understand his intentions from this?

In the end, Liao Muye didn’t go to the fringe area because the men he sent to Hongye Forest to investigate returned.

Liao Muye entered his study after asking someone to bring the men over.

In his last life, his status was not low, his strength was not bad, and he was one of the top fighters.

Cultivating and nourishing the body with qi, and having an authoritative role for many years, his temperament underwent tremendous changes.

Especially if he deliberately wanted, his whole person could look even more majestic.

At this time, none of his subordinates dared look directly at him as he stepped into the study wearing black clothing.

Liao Muye sat down on the chair and asked indifferently, “Is Hongye Forest already in chaos?”

Those subordinates were stunned for a moment, and it took a while before they replied. “Eldest Young Master, Hongye Forest is as always.” The eldest young master looks very reliable, but the questions he asks are quite unreliable.

Liao Muye frowned, did he remember the date wrong? He snorted coldly: “Are there many animals in the fringe area? Even exotic beasts?”

These subordinates said: “Summer has come, and there are more hares and hedgehogs than usual in the fringe area, and there are also weasels around, but there are no exotic beasts.”

Liao Muye: “…”

Liao Muye waited for his men to leave, thought about it, and finally decided not to think about it.

He might as well think about how to conquer the Ghost King, the leader of the rebel army.

All cities are under the control of the Holy City currently.

Holy City has many nobles, countless powerful warriors, and most importantly, priests.

When civilization was just budding, and they were still living in tribes, priests emerged.

Priests have divine powers that can cure all diseases. They are the most respected beings in the tribes, and they manage the tribes together with the patriarch.

After thousands of years, all this has not changed. But for some reason, the number of priests grew fewer, and there are barely 100 priests in the entire continent.

Now the priests and noble families control Holy City.

Many tragedies arose from endless factional battles.

And the reason why the Ghost King is an S-level wanted criminal is because he once killed a priest, and even wanted to kill the…

In his last life, he and Xie Yunnan saved this person together, and he followed them in order to repay their gratitude, helping them with things and defending them. The many beasts that ran out of Hongye Forest also gave them control over Hongye City, and he eventually became the city lord of Hongye City.

Unfortunately, Xie Yunnan fell out with him because of Yan Yuge, and the Ghost King also chose to follow Xie Yunnan.

Originally he was the lord, but because of the Ghost King’s choice, Xie Yunnan came to the fore.

Xie Yunnan’s strength was indeed very strong, but his companion beast was a dog, and his strength was due to various medicinal materials and exotic animal meat.

If he didn’t provide Xie Yunnan with these, Xie Yunnan wouldn’t be that strong at all!

Without him, Xie Yunnan is destined to be weak, and the Ghost King is destined to be his.

Why isn’t Hongye Forest chaotic yet? The time they rescued the Ghost King was not long after!

——

In the fringe area, a farm that the Liao family just sold.

This farm was bought by the rebels. After they bought it, they fired the workers originally hired by the Liao family, and they moved in by themselves.

They had been hiding in the Hongye Forest before, and the environment there was really bad. Now they can live on the plantation, everyone is very satisfied.

But… The Liao family’s plantation is very large, and many sweet potatoes in the field are mature. What are they going to do about them?

With their strength, it’s not difficult to dig them out, but if they really do that, the movements will be too great.

And after digging them out, should they be cleaned and bagged?

Each of them are warriors that have at least reached level 5. With their strength, it’s not a problem to go to a small city to be a city lord. Going to dig and wash sweet potatoes though… they’re a little unwilling.

But letting them rot in the ground isn’t good either.

Especially now that food prices are skyrocketing.

“What is the Liao family doing? If prices rise again, people here won’t be able to eat.”

“Aren’t all big families like this? They don’t care about the lives of ordinary people.”

“Let’s sell the sweet potatoes.”

“But who’ll dig them up?”

“Old Wu, your companion beast is a pangolin…” 

“Can’t your crocodile dig holes?”

“So noisy! Letting your companion beasts dig… won’t those sweet potatoes be smashed?” The masked Ghost King interrupted.

Everyone: “…” Yes, their companion beasts are very strong. Any movements will be very large, and may smash all the sweet potatoes.

“Boss, what should we do?” someone asked.

“Hire someone.” The Ghost King looked at the group of fools.

“If someone finds us…”

“Don’t let them get close to the staff dormitory.” The Ghost King said. They all now live in staff quarters that were originally reserved for plantation staff.

That works… they can stay in the staff quarters while those people work.

——

After Liao Xingyuan left, Xie Yunnan hurriedly asked Duan Changqing to go upstairs.

He didn’t really want others to see the hopeless appearance of his companion beast.

At the same time, Xie Yunnan also asked around about part-time jobs.

“Xiao Xie, aren’t you not short of money? Why are you asking about part-time work?” Someone was puzzled.

“I’m married and want to make more money!”

“Yes, you’re not alone anymore. Prices have also risen so fast recently… I’ll definitely let you know if there is suitable work.”

Coincidentally, that afternoon, someone introduced Xie Yunnan to a part-time job.

A nearby farm wants to collect sweet potatoes and needs manpower. The goal is to dig up all the sweet potatoes in a short period of time, and there’s no limit to the number of workers.

That’s pretty good.

The price of grain is not cheap. In the past, some people in the fringe area sold sweet potatoes and potatoes that were damaged when harvesting to survive. Damaged is two yuan per pound, and intact can sell for at least four.

Recently, the price of intact sweet potatoes has risen to ten yuan.

Many people in the fringes have little income.

Xie Yunnan wondered if he should snatch the job from someone.

He still has some savings compared to those living in ghettos…

Just as Xie Yunnan was thinking about this, Duan Changqing who paid attention to the conversation from upstairs was a little confused.

He didn’t know much about prices in this world, and he didn’t think much about it before.

Even when the food quality got worse, he simply thought that Xie Yunnan was being more economical.

But now… Xie Yunnan ran out of money? He has to go dig sweet potatoes even with a car repair shop?

Did he eat too much?!
