Around 9 a.m., Yang Youfu, the village chief of Yangjia Village, led his "wedding party" and a suona band he had specially hired, making a great commotion as they headed towards Lujia Village.
Although it was just a marriage exchange, Yang Youfu still took it very seriously. After all, this was a child bride he had personally chosen for his precious son. In addition to carrying on the Yang family line, she would also have to take care of his precious son, Yang Erwa, for the rest of his life. He was willing to give the girl a "decent" treatment so that she would be more "grateful".
Upon hearing the faint sound of a suona horn, the pretty boy's face instantly darkened, as if water could be drawn from it. Standing on the slope, gazing in the direction of Lujia Village, he coldly asked, "Where are the people from the Qingping County Police Bureau?"
Zhang Yang knew that 'Fifth Master' was concerned about this matter and was naturally keeping abreast of the latest news. Hearing the pretty child's question, he quickly reported, "Ever since the people from Qingping County contacted us via radio, they've been contacting us every fifteen minutes. Five minutes ago, they said they'd be in Yonghe Township in ten minutes at most." He paused, then added, "However, the road from Yonghe Township to Lujia Village isn't in good condition..."
A cold glint flashed in the pretty child's eyes as he said in an unquestionable tone, "Tell them to hurry up. If the road conditions are bad and vehicles can't pass, make them run. If they're delayed, I'll have them skinned alive!"
Zhang Yang jolted awake, straightening his back even more, and replied emphatically, "Yes!" Finally, he turned around cleanly and decisively to instruct his companions to send a telegram.
After Zhang Yang left, the child's demeanor softened. He rested his chin on his hand, gazing in the direction of Lujia Village where Yunduo was, and murmured, "Don't be afraid." Then he waved to Zhang Yang. When Zhang Yang came over, he instructed, "Have someone keep watch on the road. If that idiot's family arrives first, make things difficult for them."
"Fifth Master." Zhang Yang frowned, calling out somewhat disapprovingly, but remembering his duty, he finally spoke: "You helped call the police and used your connections to urge the police to act; you've already done more than enough. Our main priority this time is to protect your safety..."
Zhang Yang didn't say it explicitly, but his meaning was crystal clear.
Hearing Zhang Yang's words, the child's lips curled into a cold smile, and he said with a hint of self-mockery, "What could possibly happen to me? They've never taken me seriously, and I can't get in their way, so who would bother with me?"
"Fifth Master, it's better to be safe than sorry..." Zhang Yang said anxiously.
Before Zhang Yang could finish speaking, the child said impatiently, "Why do you talk so much?"
Zhang Yang choked, thankfully not choking on his own saliva. After a moment, he said, "Fifth Master, you are a man destined for great things. You shouldn't pay too much attention to a mere girl you've just met."
"Heh, doing big things?" The child's face suddenly turned cold, and a fierce look appeared in his eyes. He said in a cold voice, "I won't talk about the previous years, but what are the training missions for the older brothers this year? And what is mine? Farming? What does farming count as doing big things?"
Zhang Yang realized he had spoken out of turn and didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only say softly, "You're still young..."
"Just because I'm young, does that mean you can shirk your responsibilities and disobey my orders?" the child said coldly, his face still frosty.
At that moment, the little child exuded an imposing aura, and Zhang Yang felt a chill in his heart. He quickly lowered his head and said, "This subordinate dares not, this subordinate will go and make arrangements immediately."
"Hmph!" Seeing Zhang Yang back down, the child snorted coldly and said nothing more.
But in her heart, she couldn't help but think about Zhang Yang's words: Was she really too concerned about that dark-skinned girl?
She voluntarily gave up the bet with her father, accepted a training mission that was worlds apart from her brothers', and now, because she was worried that he would be too frightened, she even pressured her own chief guard to send someone to help her...
Why?
Why else? Of course, it's because a real man should repay even the smallest kindness tenfold!
I, Li Bingchen, a dignified man, should naturally do the same!
After figuring out his actions, Li Bingchen felt a sense of relief and even regained some of his childlike nature. He stood up and called to Zhang Yang, "Zhang Yang, let's go watch the fun."
What? Go watch the fun?
Fifth Master, do you think about your own status?
Zhang Yang inwardly groaned, but he had no choice but to grit his teeth and follow.
