"Zhiming, you brat, you've ruined your dad's life."

Xia Dongcao, who always doted on her son, couldn't help but cry and scold him: "Quickly find a way to help your father keep his position as brigade leader, otherwise how will our family face anyone in the future..."

Captain Zhang watched her cry and make a scene with a cold expression.

Zhang Zhiming dared not say anything more, looking completely lost and dejected.

No matter what the village did, Lin Jingyu and others ignored it.

School is about to start.

Everyone returned to the county town to prepare for school.

When Madam Zhang saw that they had returned safely, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

No one has come back these days.

She was worried that something might happen to everyone in Shuibu Village.

"Grandpa Zhang, Little Sister Jingyu, we'll head back now."

It had been about ten days since they returned, and Wen Lechun and the others planned to go back to Hongcheng. "Lu Qingyang and the others who went out should be back by now, and we should hurry back too."

"Your affairs are more important."

Grandpa Zhang didn't try to stop them, but told them, "Take care of yourselves, and come back to visit whenever you have time."

"We will."

Wen Lechun nodded in agreement.

After exchanging a few words, they set off and left.

The once bustling home now seems much quieter.

The next day.

Lin Jingyu and Peng Shiyu followed their third uncle, Zhang Hongyu, to high school to register and pay tuition.

With household registration and proof of identity, the two registered smoothly.

Classes will officially start on September 1st, and they can start attending classes immediately then.

Shanghai Stock Exchange.

The study of a large Western-style building.

"You bastard, I'll beat you to death, you bastard!"

The middle-aged man wearing glasses flew into a rage, pointing at the beautiful woman in front of him who showed no remorse, and roared, "Do you know how many people your actions have harmed?"

"We don't have many men to begin with, and you're sending so many elite soldiers to their deaths for one dead man? How am I supposed to explain this to the general on the island?"

"My brother Shan Xiong cannot have died in vain."

The beautiful woman, with a stubborn expression, gritted her teeth and said, "If the people of Chunnan County dare to kill my brother Shan Xiong, I will make the entire county pay with their lives."

"You're dreaming."

The middle-aged man with glasses laughed angrily, "You think two or three hundred people can drag two hundred thousand people from the county down with you? You'd be better off sending them to their deaths."

Did you know that none of them have returned? News came from above that the people of Chunnan County have made another great contribution.

You're not going to seek revenge; you're just handing someone else a headshot and giving them credit.

How could I have such a stupid daughter?

"If you're dead, you're dead."

The beautiful woman said nonchalantly, "It's just a few servants dying. No one will come to the island to apply for anything anymore. I don't believe they'd be willing to give up this place."

Anyway, I'm going to avenge my brother Shan Xiong. I won't be satisfied until I kill those people.

"If you dare to mess around again, I'll kill you first."

An angry middle-aged man with glasses raised his hand, intending to slap him.

Seeing her stubborn little face, I still couldn't bring myself to hit her.

After putting his hand down, he warned her again, "Gao Roumei, you better remember this: if you dare to issue tasks to those below in my name again, you can forget about staying here."

I will definitely send you back to the island and train you properly on how to serve people.

"I'm not going back."

Gao Roumei's expression changed slightly, but she remained stubborn. "No matter what, I will avenge Brother Shan Xiong, or I would rather die."

"You~"

Gao Dawu pointed at his daughter in front of him, almost spitting blood in anger.

He glared at her fiercely and said, "What's so great about Tian Danxiong? He couldn't even complete such a simple task. Not only did he lose so many of our people, but he also got several of our contacts arrested because of him."

A piece of trash like him deserves to die; he's not worth our revenge.

"Dad, how could you say that?"

Gao Roumei looked annoyed. "It was clearly you who sent Brother Shan Xiong to such a dangerous place. You caused Brother Shan Xiong to be arrested. How can you blame him?"

“If I hadn’t seen that he was the son of Master Yaoji and that he himself had some talent in medicine, how would he have been qualified to appear in front of me?”

Gao Dawu sneered, "Only a silly girl like you could fall head over heels for him after just a few sweet words. This kind of trash deserves to die."

"Dad, you're not allowed to scold Brother Shan Xiong anymore."

Gao Roumei screamed, "If you curse him again, I will never speak to you again for the rest of my life."

"You shameless thing."

Gao Dawu was angered by his daughter's words again. "If you want revenge, figure it out yourself. If you dare to lay a finger on my men again, I will never let you off the hook."

"How can I take revenge all by myself?"

Gao Roumei finally dared not be stubborn anymore and said resentfully, "Unless you give me poison, the more the better, I will take revenge myself."

"You think poison is like cabbage, the more the better?"

Gao Dawu sat down and sneered, "Even that good-for-nothing Tian Danxiong didn't produce many poisons. Do you think the renowned traditional Chinese medicine doctors here are just sitting around doing nothing?"

"You know what happened in Chunnan County. Master Yaoji's ancestors left behind poison, but they were the ones who eventually neutralized it."

"Then how do I get revenge?"

Gao Roumei's only thought is revenge.

She doesn't know martial arts and doesn't have a lot of poison, so it's really not easy for her to kill so many people.

Suddenly remembering something, he asked again, "I had someone poison the village that Brother Shan Xiong visited. Are all the people in that village dead?"

"Hmph, you wish they were all dead."

Gao Dawu picked up a cigar and began to puff out smoke. "Don't underestimate Chunnan County. You sent so many elites this time and used poison, but it only cost them the lives of more than a hundred people."
