158: Chapter 158: Does the Promise Still Count?

The two hugged in the clinic for a while before they realized it was not appropriate to continue like this.

Chen Yang finally let go of Ni Zi reluctantly.

Ni Zi continued reading at the table while Chen Yang would stroll around the farm and the greenhouse whenever he was free.

He pondered the ways of the farm, observed the habits and preferences of the animals.

Since he had nothing better to do, interacting with these wild animals allowed him to accumulate more experience, which would be beneficial when he expanded the farm later on.

This would give him more confidence.

After walking around the farm a few times and strolling around the village with Brother Sculpture, Chen Yang headed to the greenhouse.

Looking at the wild mushrooms slowly growing in the greenhouse, Chen Yang couldn’t help but think of Caiyun, the owner of Caiyun Fish Restaurant.

Although the lady appeared very mature, she must have been quite aged.

But it must be said, she was really well-maintained.

She looked no different from a woman in her late twenties.

Had it not been for her mature behavior and the way she spoke, Chen Yang would have thought she was just a girl in her twenties.

“Looking at the wild mushrooms, we should be able to harvest the first batch tomorrow.

I’ll deliver them to her immediately and see what she has to say then,” he thought.

As Chen Yang sat in the greenhouse, thinking of his promise with the restaurant owner, a mischievous smile appeared on his face.

It’s not that Chen Yang had unsavory thoughts, but the restaurant owner was just too tempting.

In front of such a voluptuous woman, Chen Yang was just a novice.

How could he resist?

Just a sultry glance from her would make his heart start to flutter.

But this wasn’t embarrassing, for she was much more experienced in all aspects compared to Chen Yang.

Because of this, Chen Yang was eagerly hoping for the wild mushrooms to grow so he could see what might happen with the restaurant owner.

That would truly be a fulfilling achievement.

So now, all Chen Yang could think about was for the wild mushrooms to mature quickly.

With this thought in mind, Chen Yang couldn’t help but stand up and walk another circle around the entire greenhouse.

After careful observation and confirming that they should be mature by tomorrow, Chen Yang finally left with peace of mind.

On his way back, he coincidentally met Wang Hong, who was carrying a hoe up the mountain.

Seeing Wang Hong, Chen Yang suddenly remembered, didn’t she promise to meet him at midnight last time?

Recalling this, Chen Yang immediately went over.

He greeted her with a grin, “Auntie Wang, where are you headed?”

Seeing Chen Yang’s smiling face, Wang Hong immediately sensed his impure motives, so she didn’t put on a friendly face.

“I’m off to hoe the fields.

Is there something you need?”

Chen Yang still smiled, “Do you remember what you promised me last time?”

Wang Hong paused for a moment, then suddenly also remembered the situation from last time, late at night in her house, where she made a promise to Chen Yang.

Remembering this, her cheeks turned red.

“You, always thinking about that stuff, can’t you think about anything else?” Wang Hong glared at him, then continued, “With so many pretty girls at your house, aren’t you satisfied?

Still coming to ponder over your Auntie Wang’s body?”

Wang Hong snorted lightly, sounding quite like a jealous young wife.

Chen Yang, with a light smile, said, “Auntie Wang, you got that wrong.

What pretty girls are there in my house?

I’ve been thinking about you all these days!”

“As if I’d believe you!” Wang Hong didn’t believe Chen Yang’s words at all.

She glared at him resentfully, then began to express her grievances like an aggrieved wife.

“No pretty girls in your house?

Then who’s that Ni Zi sitting at your place right now?”

“And the village chief, your relationship with her isn’t simple, right?”

“Plus, there are those two city girls who come to see you in fancy cars all the time, probably your cup of tea too, right?”

Wang Hong named Li Han, Wu Kexin, and others one by one, making Chen Yang feel somewhat embarrassed.

“Auntie Wang, don’t talk nonsense.

My relationship with Ni Zi and the village chief is very pure,” Chen Yang said awkwardly.

Wang Hong gave Chen Yang a disdainful look and continued, “Don’t treat your Auntie as a fool.

After all, I’ve been around longer than you, and I know all your little tricks.”

Seeing that his secret was out, Chen Yang simply did not try to explain further, only managing a sheepish smile.

“Even so, Auntie is still in my heart, isn’t she?

And you did promise me last time, you can’t go back on your word, right?” Chen Yang said.

Wang Hong was speechless.

She set down her hoe and stood silently for a while before finally realizing she had no solution for Chen Yang.

He could only think of looking for an opportunity to visit Chen Yang.

With this promise, Chen Yang immediately felt ecstatic.

Actually, he hadn’t planned to do much today, only wanted to make sure if the matter Wang Hong had agreed to previously still stood.

Seeing that Wang Hong still agreed, he naturally had no further requests.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Auntie Wang, he let her go.

She went off to till the fields on the mountain; otherwise, he would have taken the opportunity to have a serious talk with Wang Hong.

After Wang Hong left, Chen Yang returned home in a very good mood.

Suddenly, it was almost dark, and Chen Yang prepared to tidy up, have dinner, and then go to bed.

At that moment, the underlings of Heipi suddenly swarmed into Chen Yang’s place.

“Why have you come?” Chen Yang asked, looking at the crowd of underlings.

In front of Chen Yang, this group of underlings was very respectful.

Not to mention the previous demonstration of both grace and severity, just the fact that Chen Yang could knock them all down and also treat Heipi’s illness alone.

They all had to show great respect to Chen Yang.

“Heh heh, Brother Yang, it’s almost dark, we just thought of coming over to see Brother Hei,” one of the underlings said with a chuckle.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang let out an “oh,” then nodded, “Then go ahead, but keep your voices down.”

“Okay, thanks Brother Yang.”

After thanking him, the group of underlings swarmed into the medical hall.

They all went to see Heipi, but Chen Yang did not follow them in.

From their behavior, he knew that they were going to discuss the matter of the mine with Heipi.

Since Heipi had already made it clear today that it was inconvenient to reveal it to him, Chen Yang naturally had the tact not to go in and listen.

Moreover, he had no interest in the matter of the mine.

Although there was a reward of one million, that was a task given to Heipi, which had nothing to do with him.

After letting Heipi’s underlings go in, Chen Yang turned around and went to the kitchen.

He began to fuss about the dinner for himself and Nizi.

Initially, he had planned to make dinner just for two, but then he thought that Heipi had seemed to barely eat anything all day.

So he also prepared an extra portion for Heipi.

After all, he was a patient and “medicine is a field of benevolence,” after all.

Chen Yang was busy in the kitchen for a while, frying up some leftover deer meat and a bunch of other miscellaneous things in the pot.

Before long, the delicious meal was ready.

Chen Yang stepped out of the room and called Nizi to come to the inner room for dinner.

“Okay,” Nizi responded and went to the inner room.

Chen Yang first went to the sickroom.

Upon entering the sickroom, he saw that all of Heipi’s underlings had already left,

leaving only Heipi still lying on the sickbed, his gaze a bit vacant as he stared at the ceiling, seemingly lost in thought.

Knock knock.

Chen Yang knocked on the doorframe, catching Heipi’s attention, then asked, “Are you hungry?

Shall I help you come out to eat now, or would you rather wait a while?”

Heipi, looking at Chen Yang standing in the doorway, felt a surge of emotion.

Recalling his previous opposition to Chen Yang and the plans against Chen Yang’s farm, he also felt a wave of shame.

His expression complex, he nodded, “Now would be good, thank you.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang didn’t hesitate, immediately walked over, and then carefully helped Heipi get off the bed.

He then cautiously assisted him to the dining table and helped him sit down.

Although Heipi was seriously injured, he was still able to sit up on his own.

So, after helping him sit, Chen Yang did not fuss over him further.

“Nizi, get him a set of utensils,” Chen Yang called out to Nizi.

“Okay,” Nizi nodded, then turned and went to the kitchen to fetch Heipi’s utensils.

Heipi took the utensils without saying much, but his gratitude was evident in his eyes.
