Chapter 216: Chapter 216: Return to Stone Village

Seeing Qi Shuzhu’s relentless demeanor, and considering how important the publicity event is to Chenwang Pharmaceutical, she’s definitely going to cause trouble.

Wang Shiman was very troubled.

Chen Dashan looked up at the rearview mirror and saw Wang Shiman supporting her temple with one hand, looking very anxious. Chen Dashan comforted her, "You don’t need to overthink it. Just do what you need to do. Don’t worry, I’ve got everything under control!"

Wang Shiman nodded.

Watching Chen Dashan being so self-assured, Han Yifei laughed and said, "I can’t believe it, you’re not even afraid of the Qi Family from Hengshui City, and you even dare to stand up to that spoiled Miss Qi Shuzhu."

Han Yifei looked at him with admiration.

Not just any ordinary person without a background like Chen Dashan, but even the rich young masters of Hengshui City are few who would dare to disrespect Qi Shuzhu.

Chen Dashan just smiled and gazed out the window at the trees moving past. In his mind, he was thinking about how to deal with Qi Shuzhu on the day of the publicity event.

...

Elsewhere.

Inside a stretched Rolls-Royce, Qi Shuzhu was fuming with rage.

In the car, the old housekeeper glanced at Qi Shuzhu and silently closed his mouth, not daring to speak. The driver was trying not to breathe too loudly, minimizing his presence as much as possible.

"I must make Chen Dashan pay for this!" Qi Shuzhu gritted her teeth.

Looking out the window, she said coldly, "Uncle Qi, you were the one who said this plan would definitely work. As long as there’s money involved, there’s nothing these villagers wouldn’t do."

Housekeeper Qi, sweating, quickly bowed his head and said, "Yes, indeed!"

"Who would have thought that Fu Weimin would come out of nowhere? I bet he’s been bought off by Chen Dashan. Otherwise, how would a mere secretary of Suburb dare to oppose the Qi Family?"

"It’s Chen Dashan again!"

Qi Shuzhu slammed the medicine box in her hand against the car, snarling viciously, "This time, at the Chenwang Pharmaceutical’s publicity event, I will show Chen Dashan just how formidable I am, I will turn Chenwang Pharmaceutical into a laughing stock!"

"If he dares oppose me, I will make Chen Dashan pay the price!"

At that moment, Qi Shuzhu was shouting loudly inside the car, causing the driver and Housekeeper Qi, heads bowed, not daring to utter a word.

...

Chen Dashan and his three companions returned to Furong County, Han Yifei went back to her law firm, and Chen Dashan took Wu Hongling back to Chenwang Pharmaceutical.

"Dashan, these are the orders from the last few days. Take a look!"

Before Chen Dashan had even settled in, Wang Shiman handed him a stack of documents with a look of joy on her face.

Chen Dashan sat in his executive chair, legs crossed, glancing through the documents carelessly. He had anticipated a hit to sales due to the confrontation with the Qi Family, but after reviewing the orders, he was shocked.

In the last few days, it wasn’t just orders from nearby counties, but also many from other provinces and cities.

The sales volume had reached seven million in a few days. If this trend continued, he would surely become the richest person in Furong County!

"Are you surprised?"

Wang Shiman was filled with satisfaction, seeing these orders validated all her hard work these days.

Before Chen Dashan could respond, Wang Shiman pressed one hand on the desk and circled behind Chen Dashan, placing her hands on his shoulders, gently kneading them. She bent down and whispered in his ear, "Good sales prove the medicine’s effectiveness. This is all thanks to Dashan’s hard work."

Her warm breath continuously entered Chen Dashan’s ear.

The tingling sensation quickly spread throughout his body. Feeling a pair of soft, substantial, and quite round mounds pressing against his shoulders, Chen Dashan shuddered.

The woman giving him a massage, besides Wang Shiman, brought Zhou Hui’s pretty face to Chen Dashan’s mind.

Having left Stone Village for a month, he wondered how his sister-in-law was doing.

During this time, whenever Chen Dashan and Zhou Hui video-called, she was always busy and would hang up after a short conversation. As a younger brother-in-law, Chen Dashan didn’t dare to contact her too frequently, for fear of annoying her.

It was time to go back home for a visit.

A heaviness pressed on his thighs, and a faint fragrance wafted to his nose as Wang Shiman instinctively leaned against Chen Dashan’s chest, a pair of pert peaks pressed against his chest...

...

The next day, early in the morning.

The first thing Chen Dashan did was to take out his phone and call Guo Jinyue.

"Beep beep..."

After two rings, the call connected. Seeing that it was Chen Dashan, Guo Jinyue said excitedly, "Dashan, have you missed me after not seeing me for a day?"

"I have too, I didn’t sleep well last night."

Listening to Guo Jinyue’s coquettish voice, Chen Dashan laughed and said, "Can you introduce me to a nice villa?"

"Price is negotiable; I want good quality, safety, the kind you can move into straight away."

"You’re not thinking of keeping a mistress, are you?"

Guo Jinyue’s first thought was that Chen Dashan wanted to buy a house for another woman. This thought made her feel sour and a little jealous.

Chen Dashan quickly said, "I’ve been staying in a hotel for a while, which isn’t very convenient. Also, I’d like to bring my brother’s wife from my hometown to live with me."

Hearing this, Guo Jinyue’s spirits lifted and she said, "Leave it to me."

After a few more words, they hung up the phone.

As Furong County’s largest real estate developer, buying a house through Guo Jinyue was definitely reliable.

Having arranged his living situation, Chen Dashan drove Wu Hongling’s Land Rover towards Stone Village, excited but also anxious at the prospect of seeing his sister-in-law; fearful that Zhou Hui might be unwilling to come to the county with him, yet yearning to live with her.

For Chen Dashan, Zhou Hui had always been the most important.

Three years of care, never leaving his side.

Together with the naïve affection of his youth, gratitude, kinship, it was something no other woman could match.

"Isn’t that Dashan coming back?"

"It really is Dashan. Such a nice car, must cost several hundred thousand at least, right?"

"Dashan has really made a fortune. Now, who in the ten nearby villages doesn’t know that someone impressive came from our Stone Village?"

"Even we villagers feel we have more face when we go out!"

"All of this is thanks to Dashan’s efforts. And the orchard, without Dashan, how could we old folk have money for medical care..."

As soon as Chen Dashan got out of the car, the villagers of Stone Village swarmed around him.

Faces beaming with warmth, they surrounded him; many of the elderly reached out their withered hands, eager to shake his hand and express their gratitude.

Chen Dashan was filled with emotion.

A few months earlier, lame and blind, he could have been drowned in a water tank and no one would have known.

The villagers would have shunned him like a savage beast; now it was a homecoming in silken robes – life was indeed unpredictable...

"Dashan..." said a voice that haunted his dreams, Chen Dashan looked up to see Zhou Hui, with an apron tied around her waist, standing excitedly at the renovated ancestral house’s doorway, looking at him.

There were crystalline tears in her eyes.

Chen Dashan could not care about the others. He turned to the villagers behind him and said, "We’ll talk in a bit."

Then he strode towards Zhou Hui, saying excitedly, "Sister-in-law!"

"Ah!"

Zhou Hui looked up, and as their eyes met, seeing their reflections in each other’s pupils, neither made any other move. The morning sun’s remaining glow fell on Zhou Hui’s face, making it appear both mysterious and sacred.
