"Don't call the police, don't call the police!" the green-haired man said urgently, "It was the eldest young master of Huatian Group, Zhou Zhenyu, who sent us."
"He gave us ten thousand yuan and said that if we succeeded, no matter how much money we took from you, he wouldn't want a penny and would give it all to us!"
"Zhou Zhenyu?" Wu Tian was stunned for a moment, then he couldn't help but look at Zhou Qian.
Zhou Qian was also taken aback, her eyes filled with surprise.
Both Wu Tian and Zhou Qian knew the name Zhou Zhenyu.
When they first came to the city to find a planting site, Zhou Zhenyu's younger brother, Zhou Ming, had clashed with them over the land.
Although Zhou Ming was eventually taught a lesson by Wu Tian, the name Zhou Zhenyu had reached Wu Tian's ears.
Zhou Qian had even said at the time that Zhou Zhenyu was more difficult to deal with than Zhou Ming, and that he might retaliate for Zhou Ming.
Now it seemed that Zhou Zhenyu's revenge had begun.
Wu Tian was silent for two seconds, then he stared at the green-haired man and said, "Are you telling the truth?"
The green-haired man said in a panic, "This is all true! We're already in this situation, how could we dare to lie to you!"
Wu Tian nodded, then waved his hand and said, "Alright, I believe you."
"Since you've told the truth, I'll keep my promise, you can go."
When the green-haired man and the yellow-haired man heard this, they were immediately relieved as if they had been granted a general amnesty. They thanked Wu Tian profusely and, not daring to linger, quickly ran away.
Afterward, Wu Tian calmed down the other diners, and the incident was over.
However, Wu Tian knew in his heart that this was just the vanguard.
After this failure, Zhou Zhenyu was unlikely to let it go.
In the office, Wu Tian and Zhou Qian sat on the sofa.
Zhou Qian's expression was not very good. She said to Wu Tian, "Thank you for this. If it weren't for you, I really don't know how I would have handled it."
Wu Tian smiled faintly and said, "With our relationship, you don't need to be so polite. Let's talk about something else."
"What do you think about that Zhou Zhenyu?"
Zhou Qian sighed and said, "What else can we do? I already felt that he would retaliate against us back then, and now it seems my feeling was not wrong."
"I heard that Zhou Zhenyu is a very insidious person, and the methods he used today are indeed consistent with the rumors."
"What if he still wants to harass us, what should we do?"
Looking at Zhou Qian's somewhat haggard face, Wu Tian felt a pang of heartache.
He pulled Zhou Qian into his arms and said, "Don't worry, aren't I here? When have you ever seen me mess things up?"
Zhou Qian leaned against Wu Tian's chest and said, "Wu Tian, I know you're very capable, but if it continues like this, it's not a solution!"
"That Zhou Zhenyu is known for holding grudges. He won't admit this failure. You can't just stay here and not leave, can you?"
Wu Tian said, "You're right, so the best solution to this matter is to cut off the source of the trouble."
"I can give that guy another chance, but if he doesn't know what's good for him, then don't blame me for going to find him myself."
Wu Tian's words carried a firm tone, which made Zhou Qian feel very secure.
She cupped Wu Tian's face and said, "Wu Tian, it's so good to have you. I really like you, I really like you so much..."
As she spoke, her tender red lips pressed against Wu Tian's lips.
They fell onto the sofa, and soon there was the sound of passionate intimacy...
The next day, to alleviate Zhou Qian's pressure, Wu Tian decided to take her out for some relaxation.
Besides the restaurant, Zhou Qian also owned a medicinal herb acquisition shop.
Wu Tian first met Zhou Qian at her shop when he sold a top-quality ginseng.
So Wu Tian thought about it and decided to take Zhou Qian to the surrounding mountains to collect herbs.
This way, they could relax and exercise, which was killing two birds with one stone.
Zhou Qian readily agreed to Wu Tian's suggestion.
So they went to the nearest mountain, hoping to find some valuable medicinal herbs.
The mountain was called Great Yue Mountain. Although the name was imposing, it was actually only three to four hundred meters high.
When Wu Tian was on his way, he had asked the locals. It was said that there were quite a few good medicinal herbs on the mountain, and people often went up to dig for them and sell them.
Wu Tian led Zhou Qian as they walked on the mountain. Zhou Qian had changed out of her high heels and was wearing flat shoes. Dressed like this, with her fair, long legs, she looked particularly youthful.
Wu Tian looked around and said, "By the way, I've never asked, how is your herb shop doing? Is it still open?"
Zhou Qian nodded and said, "Of course it's still open. It's just that because I've been busy with the restaurant, I've had someone manage it for me."
Wu Tian said, "Since you're already too busy to handle it, why are you still keeping it open? Why not just close the herb shop?"
"Focus all your energy on the restaurant, wouldn't that be much easier?"
Zhou Qian shook her head and said, "No, even if the restaurant goes bankrupt, I will never close that herb shop."
Wu Tian asked curiously, "Why? Is it because it was the first shop you started?"
Zhou Qian replied, "That's part of the reason, but it's not the most important."
"The most important thing is that the herb shop is where we met. I have to thank it for letting me meet you, so I definitely have to keep it."
Hearing this, a wave of warmth flowed through Wu Tian's heart.
This kind of sentiment was like that of a little girl, wanting to cherish all memorable things.
It seemed that in Zhou Qian's heart, he occupied a very important position.
Speaking of which, Zhou Qian was Wu Tian's first woman, and Wu Tian had a good impression of her.
If it weren't for his unclear relationship with Tang Qi, he would have wanted to be with Zhou Qian right now.
On second thought, this Great Yue Mountain was indeed as rumored, a mountain with many medicinal herbs.
Wu Tian and Zhou Qian had walked for less than half an hour and had already seen many medicinal herbs, some of which looked quite good.
However, because Wu Tian had rather high requirements for the quality of medicinal herbs, ordinary herbs no longer caught his eye.
So, as they walked, neither of them had much to show for it.
Zhou Qian couldn't help but ask, "Wu Tian, why aren't you taking anything?"
"That was fifty-year-old ginseng just now, wouldn't it be good to take it back?"
Wu Tian smiled and said, "What's the point of fifty-year-old ginseng? It should be at least five hundred years old."
"Otherwise, what's the difference from ordinary ginseng?"
