Chapter 225: Black Line



This is the only way for now. We definitely can't use good stuff in the cowshed, so using these oil papers and newspapers to paste the walls can barely keep out the wind and keep warm.

It was not convenient to deliver these things during the day, so Li Miaomiao put them in a large sack. When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, she went to the cowshed with Pei Guoan in the dark.

Pei Guoan was also holding a wooden barrel in his hand, which contained rice paste made by Li Miaomiao, and some chemical agents purchased from the system were added to it. Using this paste, the paper was stuck to the wall very firmly.

Li Miaomiao, Pei Guoan, and the old man from Shed N worked together for an hour and finally finished renovating the two small dilapidated houses next to the cowshed.

The walls were good and draft-proof, and there was a simple stove sent by Li Miaomiao with charcoal burning in it, making the whole house warm.

Li Miaomiao looked at Hu Hao's wall and specially painted a layer of black ash on it. The wall, which was originally neat and clean, suddenly became dirty again.

Seeing Li Miaomiao's neat movements, the corners of people's mouths twitched.

Although I know why Li Miaomiao did this, why is this girl so fierce?

"Alert the host, someone appears one thousand meters away."

When they were going back, Li Miaomiao and Pei Guoan were walking. It was so late, there shouldn't be anyone around, but then they heard the system reminder.

Pei Guoan saw Li Miaomiao stop and pulled him to hide behind a book nearby.

He didn't react at first. No matter how quick Pei Guoan's reaction was or how strong his perception was, he couldn't compare to the system.

When he heard some noise over there, Pei Guoan finally realized why Li Miaomiao had pulled him to hide, and he was very surprised.

When it comes to insight, no one in the bureau can compare to him. He is naturally more perceptive than others in many aspects, and later he learned hunting, which further trained him in this aspect.

But his wife's reaction was even more sensitive than his. Before he noticed, his wife had already discovered something and pulled him to hide.

"Who are you, coming here so late at night, and what do you want to do?"

Li Miaomiao didn't know Pei Guoan was suspicious, and now her attention was all on the newcomer.

Pei Guoan narrowed his eyes. Coming here so late at night, could it be that he has some bad intentions towards those old people? If so,...

A fierce look flashed in Pei Guoan's eyes. Since he had promised to protect those people, if the person who came really did so, he could only make the other party disappear.

"Dead face, why did you ask me to come over so late? We've been discovered."

"I miss you. After not seeing you for so long, don't you miss me?"

It turned out that they were a pair of wild mandarin ducks. Li Miaomiao felt embarrassed when she heard that. They came out on such a cold day, weren't they too cold?

As he was thinking this, a discordant sound came from the front. Li Miaomiao looked over and saw two goblins fighting.

Watching their movements, Li Miaomiao's eyes lit up. She had only seen it in novels before, but this was a live version, which was quite exciting.

Pei Guoan saw Li Miaomiao so excitedly watching the goblins fighting in front of him, and was obviously very curious.

Li Miaomiao was just about to see the exciting part when everything went dark before her eyes.

"If you're curious, we can go back and study it. Don't pollute your eyes with these two ugly things."

Li Miaomiao felt a little moved when she heard Pei Guoan's words.

But it's just a look, if we actually take action...

It was over. Li Miaomiao met Pei Guoan's deep and lustful eyes, and she seemed to be angry.

This guy has been acting unruly lately, always trying to touch her. She guessed Pei Guoan couldn't stand it for too long, man.

Li Miaomiao was not being pretentious. Since she had decided to spend her life with Pei Guoan, things between husband and wife were inevitable. It was just that there was always a hurdle in her heart, or as Ling Xiaoling said, she just got timid at the critical moment.

The two of them were so close that Pei Guoan's warm breath sprayed on Li Miaomiao's neck. Li Miaomiao felt as if her face was on fire. Pei Guoan must have been teasing her on purpose.

Pei Guoan naturally noticed the change in Li Miaomiao, and his eyes became darker when he looked at her.

"My dear, didn't you promise me that you would get the soap factory's formula? Then you won't have to live with that loser."

"The management in the factory is too strict, especially Li Miaomiao's office. You can't enter easily. Please give me some more time."

Li Miaomiao originally didn't intend to listen to this pair of lovers having an affair, especially since Pei Guoan didn't allow her to watch. She was about to leave when she heard these words.

Li Miaomiao's expression became serious, and she listened carefully to the woman's voice again. It seemed familiar.

He should also be working in the soap factory. Who is he?

Li Miaomiao felt that this was her fault. She usually didn't pay much attention to the people in the soap factory and couldn't even recognize the woman's voice at first.

Pei Guoan realized that the man clearly had intentions towards the soap factory and was using this method to extract information.

"You go back first, I'll find out who this man is."

How could Pei Guoan let someone go if he wanted to touch his wife?

Li Miaomiao also remembered it at this time.

"I remember this woman. She's from our village and seems to be related to Uncle Degen. I forgot what she does specifically. I'll go ask Uncle Degen tomorrow."

Just like that, perhaps because the weather was too cold, the wild mandarin ducks were about to separate.

"You go back first, I'll be back later."

Li Miaomiao knew what Pei Guoan was going to do, nodded, and went back first.

Li Miaomiao didn't go to bed immediately after she returned home. She waited for Pei Guoan to come back. She also wanted to know which village this man was from.

"Which village is that man from?"

"He's from Zhoukou Village. Seeing how successful our soap factory is, he's jealous and wants to emulate it. I beat him up. I believe the people of Zhoukou Village will be more restrained for a while now, knowing they've been caught."

Pei Guoan's method was simple and crude. He put a sack on the man and beat him up. This deterrent method was direct, simple, and effective.

Pei Guoan did not show up from beginning to end, he just asked through the sack, and the other party did not know Pei Guoan's identity.

"I'll tell Uncle Degen and Accountant Wu tomorrow to be on guard. If Zhoukou Village has such intentions, other villages might have them too. Our village has certainly gained some attention recently, but using such despicable tactics is truly shameless."

"You should also pay attention to your safety recently. They want the formula, and they might set their sights on you.

"I understand. I'll be careful. Besides, it's so cold, and I don't go out unless it's necessary. I'm either at the factory or at home. Even if they want to do something, they won't have the opportunity."

Li Miaomiao remembered this incident, and when she arrived at the factory, Zhang Degen happened to want to discuss something with her.

She couldn't talk about what happened last night. After all, what were she and Pei Guoan doing there so late at night?
