537: Chapter 535: Li Lao Who Knows Me 537: Chapter 535: Li Lao Who Knows Me “Wild boar?”

Li Han and Yang Ruoxi were both stunned at the same time, the two sisters stared into each other’s eyes with wide eyes, and then they simultaneously turned to look at Chen Yang, “Wild boar would definitely be considered game, but your family only has three, right?

Tomorrow there are hundreds of tables, thousands of people, how can three be enough?”

Li Han also nodded, “Exactly, Chen Yang, three is far too few, definitely not enough.”

Chen Yang knew they would say this because they didn’t know yet just how big the wild boars at his home were…

“Ahem.” Chen Yang cleared his throat and patted his chest to assure, “Don’t worry about that, I guarantee there will be enough, I won’t let the old man’s birthday banquet lose face.”

Seeing Chen Yang’s confident demeanor, although puzzled, the two women felt reassured.

They both knew Chen Yang well.

“Okay then, we’ll leave this to you; I’ll take Ruoxi and Kexin shopping this afternoon.

You just figure out how to get the wild boar here,” Li Han said.

“Mm-hmm, sure.”

Chen Yang nodded, then everyone silently rested in the office for a while before heading out on their separate ways.

The three women drove to the vegetable market to buy the needed produce for the next day, while Chen Yang drove to arrange for trucks to transport the wild boar back to Willow River Village.

The giant wild boar, weighing over eight hundred pounds each, could definitely not fit in one truck, so Chen Yang contacted three trucks at once, asking them to wait for him at the urban-rural junction on the outskirts of the county town.

In the meantime, as the trucks made their way, he drove to Master Li’s traditional medicine shop.

It had been some time since he last saw Master Li, and this time when Chen Yang saw him, he distinctly felt that Master Li looked more spirited than before.

His face was always filled with a merry smile.

“Master Li, long time no see, you seem to be getting younger,” Chen Yang said with a smile as he entered the shop.

Master Li inside the counter looked up at the sound and was momentarily surprised, then broke into laughter.

“I’ve indeed been feeling younger lately, ever since you cured my spouse, my heart’s troubles have been lifted, how could I not look younger?” Master Li said cheerfully, stepping out from behind the counter.

He invited Chen Yang to sit at the tea table in the store.

Chen Yang and Master Li were quite familiar with each other, so he made himself comfortable and sat down as Master Li suggested.

Once seated, Master Li began preparing tea and started inquiring about Chen Yang’s recent situation, “How have you been recently?

Everything comfortable?”

“Not bad, just barely getting by, no real troubles,” Chen Yang replied with a smile.

“That’s good,” Master Li nodded, then picked up a teacup, poured some steaming tea for Chen Yang, and suddenly remembered something, he added, “Oh yes, what about that matter with Zhou Qianzheng?

Did that guy really send an assassin to deal with you?”

Chen Yang’s expression was quite natural initially, but upon hearing this, he tensed up.

Seeing the change in Chen Yang’s expression, Master Li’s face also grew stern, “What?

Did Zhou Qianzheng really send an assassin?”

Chen Yang shook his head, “No, he didn’t send an assassin after me, but he did cause me some trouble.”

Upon hearing this, Master Li’s expression slightly relaxed but he still pursued, “What kind of trouble did he cause you?”

“It was one night on the way back to my village, a few bodyguards attacked me, but they didn’t succeed; I took them all out,” Chen Yang said nonchalantly.

“Is that so?

You weren’t hurt, were you?” Li Lao asked with concern.

Chen Yang shook his head again: “I wasn’t injured.

The bodyguards were quite weak; they couldn’t hurt me.”

“That’s good,” Li Lao sighed in relief, then reminded him with concern, “I think you still need to be careful.

Zhou Qianzheng is not your average rich second generation; that guy is ruthless, just like his father.

He definitely won’t let this go.”

“I know that, but I’m certainly not one to be trifled with.

Last time, I had already sent those bodyguards back to warn him not to mess with me anymore,”

“Otherwise, I won’t be merciful to him.

I hope he takes this warning seriously, or else he will surely regret it for the rest of his life!”

Chen Yang spoke calmly, but his domineering aura was unmistakable.

The elderly Li Lao, feeling the intensity of Chen Yang’s aura, was incredibly shocked.

Previously, he had only seen Chen Yang as a prominent figure in medicine, a polite and promising young man.

But now, it seemed that the man before him was not only a courteous doctor but also a tough character!

Li Lao stared at Chen Yang’s icy face for a long while, and when he finally recovered, he didn’t say anything but asked Chen Yang to have some tea.

Chen Yang grunted in acknowledgment and lowered his head to taste the tea.

After taking a few sips, Li Lao started laughing and broached the main topic, asking Chen Yang if he had come today because he needed help with something.

Chen Yang chuckled, “Li Lao, you know me too well.

How did you know that I came here today because I have something to ask for your help with?”

Realizing that Chen Yang truly had come for a matter, Li Lao couldn’t help but laugh and curse, “I, of course, know you well, you busy man!

Coming to this old man if not for needing something?

Speak up, what issue have you encountered this time?”

“Haha, parents gave birth to me, but only you, Li Lao, truly understand me,”

Chen Yang chuckled again and spoke straightforwardly, “I’ve come today with the same old problem; I want to ask your advice about what would be a good gift for Elder Li.”

Upon hearing this, Li Lao’s eyebrows furrowed slightly: “You’re addicted to giving gifts now?

It hasn’t been long, and you’re thinking of giving another one?”

“This time it’s different from the last.

While last time was just a meeting, this time it’s Elder Li’s 80th birthday.

I need to offer birthday gifts; otherwise, what would it look like?” Chen Yang quickly explained.

“Elder Li’s 80th birthday?” Li Lao reacted with surprise upon hearing the news of the elder’s birthday, but quickly nodded in agreement: “Attending a birthday celebration, you definitely need to bring a nice gift.”

“You’re half a son-in-law after all; if the gift isn’t up to par, it really would be somewhat unacceptable.”

Li Lao candidly mentioned Chen Yang being Elder Li’s son-in-law, making Chen Yang sheepishly smile, but he didn’t clarify anything since he also saw it that way.

“Yes, Li Lao, I definitely need to bring a good gift for this birthday feast, but I can’t think of anything suitable, so I came to ask for your advice,” Chen Yang said with a smile.

Li Lao glanced at Chen Yang and teased, “Are you really here to ask for advice?

It looks to me like you’re here to ask for a gift.”

Chen Yang, already embarrassed by his sheepish smile, felt even more awkward now that Li Lao had seen through his intention of asking for a gift.

“Hehe, but this is your forte, Li Lao; I just wanted to ask for your advice, nothing else,” Chen Yang defended with an awkward laugh.

However, Li Lao was unconvinced.
