Chapter 175: Chapter 173: The Bold Cheng Cheng

Li Yuechan was startled by Long Chen’s words.

"Long Chen, what do you mean by ’calm down’? Are you leaving me?"

Li Yuechan quickly grabbed Long Chen’s hand.

"It’s not that," Long Chen said with a bitter smile. "I feel that you don’t trust me, that you don’t believe I can help you solve problems. It makes me feel sad and a bit disappointed."

"I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. Can you please not be mad at me?"

Li Yuechan threw herself into Long Chen’s arms. "I know it’s my fault, but I’m just worried about you. Can you understand that? Please, I’ll correct my mistakes and won’t make this kind again."

"Alright, I’ll trust you this time."

Long Chen cracked a smile.

He was just teasing Li Yuechan, he wasn’t really angry.

The disgusting person was Han Min, and Li Yuechan had always been the victim.

Moreover, Li Yuechan was his woman, and Long Chen wouldn’t leave her over such a trivial matter.

Seeing Long Chen smile, Li Yuechan finally felt relieved.

As long as Long Chen wasn’t angry, she felt up to doing anything.

"Thank you, hubby."

Li Yuechan cheerfully kissed Long Chen several times.

"You go ahead with your work; I’m leaving now."

Long Chen waved his hand.

"Okay, then you go ahead with your things," Li Yuechan said gently.

"Alright."

Long Chen didn’t dawdle and turned to leave.

Before long, Long Chen entered the Elixir Medicine Factory of Dragon Doctor, having not been there for some time.

The sight of Long Chen surprised and delighted those like Jiang Tong who hadn’t seen him in a while.

"Brother Long, we’ve piled up a lot of stock, waiting for you to finish the last step," Jiang Tong said.

"Yes, no one dared to rush you when you weren’t here," Tang Ying said with a wry smile.

"Some things held me up, but I’ll handle it now," Long Chen smiled. "By the way, how are Wu Nuan and Cheng Cheng doing with their training?"

As he spoke, Long Chen looked toward Wu Nuan and Cheng Cheng.

Wu Nuan giggled and said, "Brother Chen, I’m learning quickly. Sister Tang often praises me."

"Yes, she’s indeed learning fast," Tang Ying smiled.

"What about Cheng Cheng?" Long Chen asked.

Cheng Cheng glanced at Long Chen and huffed, remaining silent.

She hadn’t seen Long Chen in a long time and felt somewhat resentful.

"Cheng Cheng is also learning quickly, about the same as Wu Nuan. In a few more days, she should be able to handle things on her own. Being trained in medicine really makes a difference; they are both impressive," Jiang Tong said.

"That’s good to hear," Long Chen smiled. "You guys carry on, I’ll go take care of the stockpiled Elixirs."

"Wait, Brother Long, there’s one more thing," Jiang Tong said. "There’s a guy in the factory who keeps nagging about wanting to be your apprentice, bothering us all the time, it’s really annoying. You should sort him out first."

"What? Who?" Long Chen was taken aback.

"Some super-rich second-generation kid, but kind of silly," Tang Ying laughed.

"I’ll handle the Elixirs first, then see if he’s qualified," Long Chen said.

That day was busy yet fulfilling for Long Chen.

It wasn’t until after ten o’clock at night that Long Chen stepped out of his secret space.

Outside, there was someone who hadn’t left.

It was Cheng Cheng.

Cheng Cheng obviously dressed up, wearing light makeup, looking elegant and graceful.

"Cheng Cheng, aren’t you going home after work?"

Long Chen asked with a smile.

"I want to talk to you for a bit," Cheng Cheng said nervously, fiddling with her skirt hem.

"Go ahead," Long Chen said.

"Um," Cheng Cheng spoke softly, "After I started working here, I got to know Jiang Tong and Tang Ying, and through them, I’ve also learned quite a bit about you.

"I know too. The fact that you have two girlfriends is true, too; I’ve thought about this for a long time, and I feel like we really need to talk."

"You speak."

Long Chen said.

"I think, if you can handle two girlfriends, then adding one more shouldn’t be a problem for you, right?"

Cheng Cheng looked at Long Chen.

"How can you be so open-minded?"

Long Chen was surprised.

"I tried not liking you, forgetting you, and even tried online dating someone else, but I realized, I really can’t let go of you; I can’t come to like anyone else."

Cheng Cheng was honest.

"Cheng Cheng, actually, I have more than two girlfriends. Besides the two you know about, there are others. I am the jerk you all imagine, so it’s best if you forget about me," Long Chen whispered softly.

"What? You... you jerk, you’re just..."

Cheng Cheng was stunned.

"Ha, I’m not fooling you, it’s true."

Long Chen said honestly.

"So by your logic, I feel even less pressure. There are already so many, one more won’t matter, right? Let’s make an agreement, if I regret it later, I can break up with you anytime I want and dump you, how about it?"

Cheng Cheng looked at Long Chen.

"Why are you even bothering with this?" Long Chen said with a helpless smile.

"Anyway, I’ve said my part, I’m letting go now, and you can give me your answer tomorrow."

Cheng Cheng turned and ran off.

Long Chen watched Cheng Cheng’s somewhat frantic back, not knowing what to do for a moment.

But one had to say, Cheng Cheng really had guts.

"Forget it. I’ll deal with tomorrow’s issues tomorrow."

Long Chen started walking away from the Elixir Medicine Factory.

Just as he reached the entrance, a figure suddenly threw itself at him.

"Brother Long Chen, I finally caught you replacing my card."

The person who jumped at him was very excited.

"Who?"

Long Chen kicked out instinctively.

Bang.

The person who had pounced on him was sent flying several meters.

"Ouch, my butt."

He cried out in pain, "Brother Long Chen, it’s Yang Jian, the Yang Jian who wants to be your disciple."

"Yang Jian?"

Long Chen took a closer look.

The guy holding his butt and crying out in pain was fairly handsome and looked somewhat bright.

"Brother Long Chen, I’ve been at the Elixir Medicine Factory for two months now, afraid to approach you. Today, after Jiang Tong told me you agreed to meet me, I dared to wait for you at the entrance, hehe."

Yang Jian had a naive smile.

But Long Chen realized that this guy was actually not naive at all.

"Kid, many want to become my disciple; do you have any special talents?"

Long Chen said with a light smile, sizing up Yang Jian.

Yang Jian thought for a moment and clubbed truthfully, "As for talent, I... I’m probably just mediocre. But Brother Long Chen, I have VIP cards for many places in Qianzhou, hey, like Yushui Square, like Immortal Realm spa."

"What is Yushui Square?" Long Chen curiously asked.

"Well, it’s, ahem, a more upscale foot bath place, big brother, you haven’t been there, right?"

"Is it fun?" Long Chen asked.

"Of course." Yang Jian said mysteriously, "All kinds of top-notch beauties can wash your feet; want to try it? I can arrange it for you."

"Don’t make that lewd face, we are just going there for a proper foot bath, understand?" Long Chen said sternly.

"Sure thing, big brother, shall we go?"

"Lead the way."
