【169】Iron Tree Blossoms
Xiao Yunteng frowned. "We've already found out. The man who robbed your convoy in Butterfly Valley last time was called Su Rui. He's Mu Yuan's man. He suddenly came to Weicheng three months ago and was recruited by Mu Yuan to work for him."
The cynicism on Mo Yanchen's face disappeared. He narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze was as sharp as a torch, calm and full of intimidation.
"This account will be settled with him sooner or later. What's going on in Bijia Village west of the city?"
While eating on the first floor, he heard from passers-by that something had happened in Bijia Village.
Xiao Yunteng sighed and said, "The plague in Bijia Village doesn't seem like a natural disaster, but rather a man-made one. Mu Yuan is also closely related to it. The matter is still under investigation."
Mo Yanchen clenched his fists, his thin lips pressed into a straight line, the corners of his mouth curled downwards in a fierce, undisguised expression of disgust and anger. "That old scoundrel Mu Yuan, what on earth does he want to do? As a county governor, he's never done a single good thing for the people. He sells official positions, embezzles public funds, accepts bribes, perverts the law, disregards people's livelihoods, and even destroys the ecology. What's the point of being an official?"
Why can such people become officials?
After Mo Yanchen said these words, his face turned purple with anger, like a ripe fruit about to burst.
His clenched teeth made a clattering sound, and his cheeks bulged high and then quickly tightened, as if he was trying hard to suppress the anger that was about to explode.
Xiao Yunteng's brows were knitted into the shape of a "川" character. "Boss, the most important thing right now is to find a way to save the hundreds of lives in Bijia Village. Mu Yuan's forced closure of the village is equivalent to letting them die. These are hundreds of lives at stake."
Mo Yanchen gritted his teeth and said, "Tonight, take a few people who know medicine with you and go to Bijia Village under the cover of darkness."
"Yes, I'll arrange it right away." Xiao Yunteng turned around and prepared to leave.
He walked only a few steps before turning back and pointing in the direction of the seventh floor, asking, "Boss, who are those women and girls?"
"She..." When mentioning Su Xueer, Mo Yanchen's expression became much gentler.
Thinking of the three months of dependence and companionship on Phoenix Peak, a strange warmth surged in his heart.
"Settle her down well. Her treatment should be better than mine. Satisfy her every desire. Also, keep my identity a secret from her for the time being."
"Boss, you..."
Xiao Yunteng's cloudy old eyes widened like two copper bells, his wrinkled face twitching slightly in shock. "They treat that girl even better than you do? They're treating her like a deity! Who is she? Is her identity suspicious? Could she be someone from the government with ulterior motives?"
Mo Yanchen frowned: "Old man Xiao, she is definitely not a bad person. She is my savior. If it weren't for her, Butterfly Valley would have been injured, and I might have been in great danger."
Xiao Yunteng: "Okay, you've grown up. Others your age already have children. It's time for you to think about getting married and having children."
The gang members were in a panic because Mo Yanchen was injured and disappeared for three months.
Only Xiao Yunteng always believed that Mo Yanchen would not die and would definitely come back.
Because he watched him grow up, he has always believed in his methods and abilities.
Mo Yanchen's face actually turned slightly red. "What are you talking about? Let's quickly arrange things for the evening."
Xiao Yunteng's eyes narrowed into a smile: "Okay, okay, I'll go right away. It's rare for you to meet a girl you like after all these years. You have to work hard. You kid, the old iron tree has finally bloomed!"
After saying this, he covered his beard as if he was afraid that Mo Yanchen would burn his beard and ran away.
