Shocking! My Rugged Husband is the Hidden Tycoon in the 70s Novel-Chapter 153: It’s Me... I Want a Kiss

A white shadow leapt out from the space, its sharp teeth sinking into the opponent’s neck. That person reacted with some agility, raising their wrist to pull the trigger. A gunshot echoed as the bullet passed through the leaves in the tree crown, startling the birds flying above.

Liao Yongqiang was speaking to Jiang Xingye among the grove.

"You should know, with your status and educational level—which hasn’t even completed middle school—you’re not worthy of the Xu Family’s educated youth. One should have self-awareness; too much delusion will eventually bring disaster. Do you understand this principle?"

Liao Yongqiang sized up Jiang Xingye, the young man had an exceptionally strong body, a golden-ratio figure, adorned with ill-fitting, shabby clothes, which nonetheless could not conceal the robust muscles underneath.

His eyes were sharp and fierce, exuding an unshakeable determination—the kind of good seedling even the military selects one in a thousand.

After all, he is a rural person, no matter how good his aptitude, the Lu Family will not look favorably upon him!

Jiang Xingye coldly stared at him, "What do you want to say?"

"Break off your engagement with the Xu Family’s educated youth, or else, the next time it could cost your life, becoming a wrongful death. Don’t blame me for not warning you!"

Jiang Xingye suppressed anger, slowly uttering two words, "Dream on!"

He could never willingly give up Xu Qinghuan; there is only one person in this world who can command him to leave, and that person can only be Huanhuan. She needs him, she allows him to be near, and so he will never stay away.

Bang!

The faint sound of gunfire resonated. Liao Yongqiang turned and ran toward the mountains, but Jiang Xingye’s speed was quicker than his, disappearing from sight in a flash, like a bolt of lightning.

For a rugged country man, how could his physical prowess be this strong!

I don’t know what happened to those three people. If it weren’t for personally stopping him here, I would have suspected it was Jiang Xingye who made the move.

Those three were thrown into the Sea of Recklessness within the space by Xu Qinghuan, dead bodies floating in the seawater, attracting countless fish who gathered upon smelling blood. On the sandy beach by the sea, sunlight gently spilled down, with one white and one gray sitting quietly watching the fish enjoy a feast.

As Jiang Xingye dashed into the Xu Family, Xu Qinghuan was humming an unknown tune softly, standing at the stove kneading dough.

During the harvest, there was only half an hour for rest at noon, and every household would arrange someone to cook and bring the food to the field’s edge.

Xu Qinghuan intended to cook for the five of Qiao Xinyu. She planned to make two bread rolls, fry some sauce, and make a soup.

As for Jiang Xingye, Xu Qinghuan prepared to use the Spirit Rice and spirit flour from the space to make food for him.

After consuming the Bone Tempering and Muscle Strengthening Pill, his body needs to replenish Spiritual Energy to prevent deficiencies.

Seeing Xu Qinghuan was alright, Jiang Xingye let out a huge sigh of relief. Heaven knows how tense he was as he ran here, afraid like never before, worried she wasn’t home, and even more apprehensive of something happening to her in the mountains.

"What’s wrong with you?" Xu Qinghuan removed a wheat grain stuck in his hair, noticing the worry in his eyes, she knowingly asked.

The gun was fired earlier, surely, he heard the gunshot.

Jiang Xingye wanted to embrace Xu Qinghuan, but having just finished cutting wheat, his body was covered in wheat bristles, which could make sensitive skin itch.

He had to restrain himself.

"It’s nothing!" Jiang Xingye raised his hand, the pad of his right finger brushed across her smooth and tender cheek, "These days the mountains aren’t peaceful, don’t go. If you need to pick something, wait for me to take you."

"Okay!" Xu Qinghuan lifted her feet, leaning towards his face, but Jiang Xingye leaned back to avoid her. Seeing Xu Qinghuan getting upset, he quickly explained, "I’m dirty."

Seeing Xu Qinghuan glaring at him with puffed cheeks, Jiang Xingye’s ears turned red, he leaned closer and whispered, "Tonight, once I’ve bathed, you can... you can kiss as you like, alright?"

The eyes usually fierce turned to a placating expression, somewhat pitiful, slightly hunched. If he had a tail, it should be wagging continuously, trying to please his owner.

Xu Qinghuan was not angry after all, dust covering his face and body, she didn’t detest him, but the thoughtfulness he showed was something she appreciated.

Yet Xu Qinghuan insisted on teasing him, her little nose huffed lightly, "Who’s keen to kiss you!"

Jiang Xingye felt nervous and disappointed, "It’s me, I want to kiss!"

His heart was beating fast, his heart’s bearing capacity getting weaker and weaker, making him almost suspect he had heart disease; recalling the kisses they shared intensified Jiang Xingye’s eyes with burning desire.

"If you want to kiss me, then go ahead!" Xu Qinghuan said with amusement, using a single white finger to gently poke his face away, "Come on, don’t you need to go back to work? Be careful or the team leader will deduct your work points."

Only then did Jiang Xingye relax, he needed to go back to work indeed, after all, he had a wife to support. This year, he would work hard to earn more work points and get more grain allocated at year-end.

"Yeah, I’ll finish early."

Before leaving, he took a glance at the firewood in the yard, and at the gate of the yard, he heard Xu Qinghuan shout, "A Ye, I’ll bring you lunch at midday!"

He turned his head, stars shining in his eyes, his voice hoarse with slight tremors, "Great!"

Liao Yongqiang only saw a pool of blood in the mountains, no signs of a fight, but the three were gone.

He descended the mountain, almost noon, made a detour to where Jiang Xingye was working. His row of wheat had all been cut, and the people at the field’s edge were tying the wheatgrass sheaves.

A normal man would be bent double carrying two sheaves of wheatgrass, but Jiang Xingye carried four sheaves with easy strides.

Liao Yongqiang stepped forward to stop him, "Jiang Xingye, did you hear anything earlier?"

Jiang Xingye cast him a cold glare, lifted his foot to leave, but Liao Yongqiang quickened his pace to block Jiang Xingye again. The nearby team leader saw this and got furious, "Comrade, you’re interfering with our harvest task!"

Jiang Xingye bypassed Liao Yongqiang, walking away quickly. Liao Yongqiang couldn’t bear the blame for sabotaging productivity, clearly, the three’s disappearance wasn’t due to Jiang Xingye’s involvement, so he had to give it up.

Jiang Xingye soon completed his tasks and went to help Zhou Guizhi, but Zhou Guizhi chased him away, "Go rest, don’t overwork yourself, or you’ll wear your body out!"

"I’m fine!" Jiang Xingye wielded the sickle, overtaking the members lined up in a row with just a few swings.

Bending over too long to cut wheat, fatigue inevitably sets in; when the waist pain becomes severe, standing up for a rest is certain.

Li Xingzhi stood up and saw, my, Jiang Xingye’s broad, sweeping action with one sickle stroke, equated to two of others! Most importantly, his movements were exceptionally fast; with two strokes, a large swath of wheat fell.

Li Xingzhi wiped her sweat with a towel, smiling, "People engaged are different, look at Xiao Ye, no wonder he’s working so diligently. This is about to build a family, carrying the load on his shoulders, he’s aware of needing to earn work points!"

Xu Qinghuan didn’t come to work, and Dong Aimei was assigned to Zhou Guizhi’s group. Hearing this, she looked up, her gaze landing on Jiang Xingye’s waist and abdomen, the overwhelming sense of power almost making one salivate.

Jiang Xingye sensed it, turned and cast a fierce glare at her, the scorn and contempt in his eyes as if solidified, piercing Dong Aimei’s heart with intense pain.

She withdrew her gaze, sneering coldly, "Marrying a man, marrying a man, just clothing and eating. Xu Family’s educated youth really is lucky!"
