The Happy Farmer Wanderer-Chapter 215: Old Classmate Breaks Down_1

Liang Yu suddenly stopped crying, and didn’t struggle anymore.

She looked at Li Qing in shock and asked, "Who... who are you?"

"So, princesses are all forgetful," Li Qing sneered. "Back then, you ganged up on me several times because of a rumor, beating me and cursing with such ugly words. Your accusations were so decisive, so self-righteous!"

"But, you said one thing wrong back then. You said I would never even touch your fingernail in this lifetime. Yet today, I not only touched you but also made you wet."

Liang Yu’s pupils suddenly dilated in shock, "You... you’re Li Qing?!"

"Aha, finally you remember me," Li Qing mocked.

At that moment, a taxi with its right turn signal on pulled over to the roadside. Li Qing walked forward, opened the door, and threw Liang Yu inside, "Get lost. Compared to what you did back then, what I did today was just collecting a bit of interest."

After slamming the car door shut, Li Qing turned around and went upstairs.

The corridor was in chaos; the fat man who was kicked twice by Li Qing was stirring up trouble at the bar.

Li Qing glanced at him but didn’t pay any attention and went straight into the private room.

The room echoed with shrill, howling singing. In the short time he had been gone, the private room had nearly turned into a devil’s playground, with a group of people, spurred on by alcohol, becoming even more uninhibited in their touching.

Duan Fatty, that bastard, actually started doing it right there.

Li Qing’s casual glance around the room revealed shapes and forms of fullness, swaying in various ways.

Honestly, it was his first time seeing so many.

But instead of arousing any desire in him, the scene made him feel uncomfortable.

Li Qing sat down next to Gong Ge, patted the head buried in the bosom of a girl, and said in a deep voice, "I just went out and bumped into some trouble, hit someone who might be somewhat important."

"You hit someone?" Gong Ge asked in surprise.

Li Qing nodded, "I don’t know what the person’s status is, but I don’t think they’ll be able to find us here."

He didn’t consider the incident a big deal but mentioned it to Gong Ge just to be safe and avoid any potential troubles.

He didn’t want to unintentionally drag Gong Ge and the others into it if that fat man truly had sky-high connections and managed to find him.

"I’ll go take a look," Gong Ge said gravely, "and try to find out the person’s background first."

Gong Ge returned shortly after and said, "They do have a bit of a background, some community leader."

"Won’t it cause us some trouble?" Li Qing couldn’t help but worry.

Gong Ge squeezed himself between two women and chuckled, "Qingzi, just relax and enjoy yourself. There won’t be any trouble. It’s only a community leader, a nobody in the grand scheme of things."

"Even if he really comes looking, it would just be a slight inconvenience to ask Lü Zong to make a phone call."

Hearing this, Li Qing felt more at ease.

His curiosity about Lü Zong’s influence only grew.

From what he understood now, Lü Zong seemed quite omnipotent.

The crowd played for another half an hour before finally calling it a night.

Gong Ge, staggering from drink, left with those two girls, as did everyone else, each with their own companion.

Even Duan Fatty, who had already had his fun in the private room, left with someone, presumably moving on to the second or third round.

After a cursory look, Li Qing saw that the revelers, now in high spirits, were clearly not satisfied with just some casual touching.

Each followed suit, taking someone with them.

In the end, Li Qing was the only loner left.

After parting ways with everyone, Li Qing hailed a cab and returned to the village.

He had drunk quite a bit today and didn’t dare to ride his bike alone.

In the following days, Li Qing assigned groups to Liang Zhongliang and others according to their own wishes, and designated their respective areas, after which the acquisition process essentially became formalized.

With a basic salary anchoring them, everyone’s morale stabilized.

The burden on Li Qing’s shoulders lightened considerably.

After the establishment of the company, Li Qing’s salary also underwent some changes, receiving the same basic salary plus performance pay.

But it was still not insubstantial.

He and Palace Brother were earning a performance pay based on the entire company’s monthly revenues.

Overall, the income might be just slightly less than before.

Li Qing’s businesses were now all maturing and stabilizing, and he gradually found himself with more free time.

In the afternoons, he could even take time to help Tian Yue’e and go grocery shopping with the two of them.

It was another overcast morning, but the rain was nowhere to be seen.

After wrapping up the company’s affairs, Li Qing headed home early.

Before he even entered his house, he heard an incessant chatter, sounding like there were many women around.

Walking into the courtyard, he was slightly taken aback.

Boy, there really were quite a few women.

Han Mei, Tian Yue’e, Yang Xuelan, and even Wu Xingxing was there.

Four women, and he had crossed paths with two and a half of them.

The scene was lively with feminine charm, admittedly quite a sight to behold.

"When did you get here?" Li Qing pulled over a stool and sat down next to Wu Xingxing before asking.

"Xingxing has been coming almost every morning these past few days, didn’t you know?" Yang Xuelan asked in surprise.

With a light chuckle, Han Mei spoke with a hint of reproach, "He’s been leaving early and coming back late these days, barely ever seen around here, I forgot to tell him."

"You’ve been coming recently?" Li Qing was also somewhat surprised.

Wu Xingxing lifted her proudly petulant chin and said, "Look at that expression, do you not welcome me?"

"Don’t be so tensed up, I’m just bored and come over for fun, I don’t want your money."

"If you were really willing to put in the hard work, I’d still be willing to pay you a salary," Li Qing teased deliberately.

"I don’t need it at all!" Wu Xingxing pouted as she spoke.

Li Qing smiled, "I’m quite serious though."

"Oh, pull the other one, if you actually had to pay me, you wouldn’t know how much you might exploit me. It’s better now, I come over to hang out, help out when I feel like it, and chat with a few sisters-in-law, how nice," Wu Xingxing said with affected pride.

"Qingzi, stop teasing Xingxing, it’s still early, go to town and buy some meat, and ask Xingxing to stay for lunch," Han Mei said.

"I want roast chicken, braised large intestines, and sheep’s head!" Wu Xingxing immediately raised her arms and declared.

"Wow, you sure don’t have modest demands, wanting meat from three different animals in one breath," Li Qing shook his head and joked.

"If you don’t buy it, forget it, I can just go home and eat," Wu Xingxing huffed, crossing her arms.

"Buy, buy, buy, I’ll go buy it," Li Qing chuckled silently and resignedly said, "By the way, should we invite Auntie Yu Lan over too? Cooking for herself alone at home is too troublesome."

"I’ll give her a call and ask," Wu Xingxing said.

After a brief conversation on the phone, she hung up, "My godmother doesn’t want to come over."

Li Qing had a rough idea of Yu Lan’s thoughts; she didn’t feel like seeing people right now.
