"That's more like it, otherwise I'll never let you off the hook."

We chatted about some other trivial things, and then she asked to "visit" my room.

They took her up there and spun her around twice.

"Hey, it looks pretty good. The room is clean and stylish. Are all these antiques your family heirlooms?"

I nodded in response, and she took down the Tang sword hanging on the wall. "It's so heavy, it must be real. Where did you get it?"

As he spoke, he looked at me with a suspicious expression.

"It was a gift from a friend, is there anything wrong with that?"

Wang Ling drew the knife, and a murderous aura immediately emanated from it, startling her so she quickly put it back. "Has this knife killed anyone before?"

Yes, do you have any objections?

"Hmph, what are you so smug about? Do you think I'm afraid? Let me tell you, I'm very bold. If you dare to lie to me, you'll regret it for the rest of your life."

My mom called me downstairs for dinner, so I took her down. She made several dishes, and I have to say, her cooking skills are quite good. I buried my head in my food and started eating.

Wang Ling and my mom chatted while eating, and they seemed to get along quite well, but I didn't think so. Just like the books say, a woman is different before and after marriage. To truly love a woman, you have to understand her personality after marriage. And right now, Wang Ling and I are only in the initial stage, and we don't know each other well enough.

On the bus to the county, Wang Ling was very excited, chattering non-stop, "Hey, Liu Zhihua, I heard you're going to another place soon, how long will it be before you come back?"

"It's about a week, my brother."

"What are you going there for? Is it to attend some kind of cultural exchange conference like last time, or to do something shady?"

"No, I was just going to another place with experts and professors from the city to study the culture of ethnic minorities. I was just there to make up the numbers."

"Oh, is that so? Then may I go?"

Hearing her say that, I quickly waved my hand, "No, there are limited spots this time, and it's for academic discussions, not for fun. Even if I'm just here to make a cameo, I have to do it properly, otherwise people will have a problem with me."

"Hmph, if you don't want to go, then don't go. Who cares? Who knows what your real purpose is?"

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. We'll be in the county soon. You decide where you want to go."

As soon as I said it, I regretted it. This proves that you should never say such things to girls. Wang Ling was overjoyed, but I felt a chill run down my spine and thought to myself, "I'm definitely going to be a laborer today."

Sure enough, Wang Ling first took me to a clothing store and bought a big bag of clothes. She said she would buy more for me, but I absolutely refused.

After buying clothes, we bought all sorts of food, and then went shopping at the mall. We walked around several streets with both hands full of big bags of things.

After we finished watching the movie, I thought she should go back, but then she made a phone call, and her relative, who was the wife of that education bureau official, came out to pick us up in his car.

When I arrived at her relative's house, Guo Gang returned shortly afterward. He greeted me warmly, shook my hand, and said, "Teacher Liu, I've been so anxious to see you!"

Of course I understood what he meant, and I just nodded.

109 Qinglong Cliff

Guo Gang took out a wad of cash from his wallet and stuffed it into my hand. "Teacher Liu, you have to help me with this as soon as possible, please."

I quickly stuffed the money back into my hand and stepped back. “There’s no need for that. I will help if I can, but it’s not something you can just do whenever you want. It depends on the timing and the circumstances. I’ll do my best.”

For now, I'll just have to make do and never come here again. They were originally going to invite us to stay for dinner, but Wang Ling had a classmate's birthday party and took me there.

Her classmate's birthday was held at a restaurant. She said that her classmate's family is quite wealthy, and they booked the entire restaurant for the birthday celebration. However, they only invited classmates and friends, which means they were all young people.

When we arrived, Wang Ling introduced me to her classmates, who were fairly good-looking and dressed quite fashionably. There were also a few boys and a few girls, most of whom were her classmates.

To be honest, I guess it's because I study Yin-Yang and Feng Shui, but now I'm really disgusted by these young people who just eat, drink, and have fun. I'm also not good at communicating with them; we only talk about useless things.

Wang Ling also introduced me, and to my slight embarrassment, she directly said that my boyfriend was introduced by my family. Immediately, some people made disdainful snorts, saying, "A beautiful flower is wasted on cow dung."

I can't be bothered with them. As the saying goes, those who walk different paths cannot make plans together. There's no need to lower myself to their level.

"Hey, Wang Ling, what does your boyfriend do?" I heard a woman ask.

"To put it simply, he is a feng shui master."

"Pfft, really? A Taoist priest? Or is he one of those charlatans who swindle and cheat people on the street?"

"Wang Ling, how could you find a charlatan to be your boyfriend? You're so pathetic. With your looks and qualifications, it would be easy for you to find a rich man."

"Hehe, I just like him. This charlatan actually has some real skills."

"Tch, what real skills could he possibly have? I think you've just been fooled by him. Everyone knows these fake Taoist priests are all talk and no action."

Several people talked for a long time, but I pretended not to hear them and started reading the news on my phone.

Soon, the birthday celebration began, noisy and lively. Wang Ling's classmates all looked at me with disdain and contempt, clearly dissatisfied with me, and deliberately picked fights to cause trouble.
