Doctor and His Glamorous Sister-in-Law-Chapter 657 - 660: How Did You Know

Looking at Liu Jingming, Liu Ergou said with a smile, "Since you know each other, that makes things easier."

"In that case, I won’t interfere. I’ll leave it for you to handle. As a village chief, I can manage the village, but building factories is beyond my expertise."

"However, if you encounter any procedural issues, you can come to me. If I can help, I certainly will!"

Hearing Liu Jingming’s words, Liu Ergou couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows. He recalled that Liu Jingming’s past attitude toward him was nothing like this. Before, Liu Jingming would have sooner chased him away with a stick. But now?

Thinking of this, Liu Ergou couldn’t help but feel emotional. That old saying is so true... with money, you really can stand tall.

Looking at Liu Jingming, Liu Ergou thought for a moment before saying, "Chief Liu, since you’re being so generous, I should show my gratitude as well. After all, I grew up in this village."

"Now that I’ve found some success, I ought to give back."

"How about this? I’ve noticed the road from our village to the town is just a dirt path. Whenever it rains, it becomes completely impassable."

"So, I’ll go ahead and build a proper asphalt road."

As soon as he said this, Liu Jingming was overjoyed. Building a road from the village to the town was a tremendous accomplishment. It was something he had never dared to dream of before. The distance to town was considerable, and who knew how much paving a road like that would cost.

Yet today, Liu Ergou had offered to build it. Once this road was finished, he would be beaming with pride. Fengzhu Village would also see a significant improvement in its conditions. It wasn’t about getting rich overnight, but at the very least, every household could achieve a modest level of prosperity.

However, as he considered this, Liu Jingming let out an inexplicable sigh. This puzzled Liu Ergou. Why would he sigh at such wonderful news?

Before Liu Ergou could even ask why, Liu Jingming suddenly turned and left.

On his way back, Liu Jingming’s mind replayed Liu Ergou’s promise to build a road for the village. The more he thought, the more he sighed.

"Ah... that old saying is so true. Life is just so unpredictable!" Liu Jingming murmured softly. "Who would have ever thought Liu Ergou would see a day like this."

"If I had known, I never would have sent Hui Hui away."

With that, Liu Jingming shook his head and walked dejectedly toward his home.

Meanwhile, Liu Ergou, along with Orange Bear, Mi Xiaoying, and He Mingxue, began searching the village for a suitable location to open a farmhouse inn. After some searching, they found a very suitable spot not far from the mountain behind the village. Not only was the area spacious, but it was also backed by a large mountain with a small river flowing in front. It was a perfect scenic location with everything they needed.

Seeing this, Liu Ergou nodded in satisfaction. "Let’s choose this place! I think it’s quite suitable!"

Hearing this, the three women observed the area carefully and nodded in agreement.

However, at that moment, the three exchanged a glance as if they had reached a silent consensus. Then, approaching from different directions, they all hugged Liu Ergou. This sudden development left him momentarily stunned and unable to react.

Just then, Orange Bear said in a sweet, coquettish voice, "Er Gou, look at the beautiful mountains and clear water here. Isn’t it wonderful?"

"Honestly, I’ve never tried it in a place like this. Want to give it a try with me?"

At the same time, Mi Xiaoying and He Mingxue chimed in, "Come on, Er Gou!"

"We think this place is quite suitable too. Want to try it out?"

Listening to them, Liu Ergou was indeed tempted. But after a moment’s thought, he resolutely declined.

"Forget it, let’s not get carried away. This place isn’t far from the village. If someone came by, they’d see everything."

"I’m not in the habit of being watched!"

With that, Liu Ergou tried to push the three women away, but instead of letting go, they held on even tighter.

Mi Xiaoying pressed, "It’s fine, Er Gou! We can find a more secluded spot!"

"When we were coming over, I saw a good place over there. It’s in a low-lying area where no one can see. If you ask me..."

Liu Ergou cut her off before she could finish.

"Forget it. I have three others at home, and I can’t enjoy a private feast behind their backs!"

"Besides, as good sisters, you should share your blessings and hardships, right?"

As he spoke, he gave each of their behinds a playful pat. Seeing his firm refusal, Mi Xiaoying and the others knew it was pointless to insist further. With unhappy faces, they let go of Liu Ergou and went home.

「Time flew, and night soon fell.」

Tonight, Liu Ergou didn’t stay with the five women. Instead, he went out alone to Orange Bear’s temporary residence. After all, Orange Bear hadn’t had an easy time coming here, and he felt he owed her some special treatment.

Soon, he arrived at her place.

As soon as he entered, Liu Ergou saw Orange Bear lying coquettishly on the bed. She was wearing a seductive outfit that left her fair skin partially visible, and the sight made him involuntarily wipe the drool from his mouth.

Orange Bear was overjoyed to see him.

"Er Gou, you’re finally here! I’ve been waiting for you for so long!" she said, getting up from the bed. She walked over to him and struck a tempting pose.

At this point, how could Liu Ergou possibly resist? He reached out and pulled her into his embrace.

Then, smiling, he said, "Orange, from the sound of it, you knew I was coming over?"

Orange Bear nodded. "Of course. When I got back, I guessed you’d visit tonight, so I changed into this outfit ahead of time."

"What do you think? Do you like it, Er Gou?"

Liu Ergou nodded repeatedly. "Like it? How could I not? Orange, that outfit really suits you!"

Without giving her a chance to react, Liu Ergou lifted her up in a princess carry, tossed her onto the bed, and pounced right after.

This night was destined to be a sleepless one. Because they hadn’t seen each other in so long, Orange Bear was incredibly enthusiastic, clinging to Liu Ergou and refusing to let go.

In the end, she was completely exhausted, without a shred of energy left, and could only curl up in his arms and fall asleep. Looking at Orange Bear nestled in his embrace, Liu Ergou just smiled and shook his head, then went to sleep as well. After all, there were things to do tomorrow.

「In the blink of an eye, it was the next morning.」

Liu Ergou didn’t sleep in.
