“Let go…”
Fang Yanxi struggled, but Wan Yunting held her tightly. “I won’t let go unless you’re not angry anymore.”
Fang Yanxi turned her face, looking at Wan Yunting’s ear with resentment, and bit down on his earlobe…
“Ouch…”
Wan Yunting, in pain, hadn’t expected the woman to bite his ear. He immediately let go, and Fang Yanxi pushed him away. Wan Yunting said helplessly, “Where did you learn that? You bite people randomly now.”
“Hmph, I’ll bite you to death.”
Fang Yanxi bared her teeth provocatively, letting out a fierce snort.
“I was wrong, please don’t be angry anymore, okay?”
Wan Yunting took the opportunity to act spoiled with the woman. Fang Yanxi rolled her eyes, shook off his hand, and snorted, “Do you know why I’m angry?”
“I know, it’s about Ling Wei, right? I didn’t expect her to come either.” Wan Yunting shrugged, looking innocent.
Fang Yanxi’s pretty face darkened, and her eyes shot him a cold glance. She said angrily, “Forget it, I’m not wasting my breath on you here. Talk to me when you’ve figured it out.”
Wan Yunting looked stunned. Seeing Fang Yanxi walk away, he quickly grabbed her wrist. “No, Yanxi, listen to me…”
“Wan Yunting, do you think I’m angry with you because of Ling Wei?”
Fang Yanxi turned around, glaring at Wan Yunting angrily. She said, “Did you completely ignore what I told you before? I told you not to be the first one to rush into danger. Have you forgotten all that?”
Wan Yunting’s expression stiffened. He hadn’t expected the woman to be angry about this.
“If you hadn’t come back today, if you had died in there, what would I have done?”
Fang Yanxi was furious. She was practically putting her hands on her hips and pointing at Wan Yunting’s nose. “Because of you, I waited on the mountain for four or five days. There’s a mountain of company matters waiting to be handled, and the launch of our beauty products has also been delayed because of your affairs. Isn’t this your fault?”
“Yes, yes, yes, my fault, it’s all my fault. You’re right to scold me…”
At this moment, Wan Yunting dared not retort to the woman. He quickly apologized and admitted his mistake, smiling. “Don’t worry, I promise I’ll listen to you from now on and won’t act rashly. Please calm down, okay?”
“Hmph, I can’t be bothered with you. If you want to be a hero, then be one. You won’t listen to me anyway.” Fang Yanxi gave him a cold look, then turned and walked towards the car…
“Yanxi, I really know I was wrong…”
Wan Yunting quickly chased after her to apologize. Fang Yanxi said to Jiang Peipei and Huang Yuqing, “Get in the car, let’s go back.”
Wan Yunting, who had caught up, gave his second brother and Huang Yuqing a sheepish smile. But Fang Yanxi ignored him and got into the car, her face stern and silent.
Seeing this, Wan Yunting could only sigh helplessly, thinking he would have to coax Fang Yanxi tomorrow. “Second Brother, you guys be careful on the road. Call me when you get home.”
“Don’t worry. When are you returning?” Wan Dongming asked.
“We’re also setting off for Hua Du City tomorrow,” Wan Yunting replied.
“Alright then, Qiu Yue and I will stay and go back with you tomorrow,” Jin Xiuwen said.
Wan Yunting nodded, then smiled at Huang Yuqing and Jiang Peipei, who were sitting next to Fang Yanxi and in the back, “I’ll look for you guys to get together again when I get back.”
“Okay.”
Huang Yuqing nodded and smiled. Jiang Peipei, sitting behind Fang Yanxi, cast a lingering glance at Wan Yunting, but he pretended not to see it. He looked at Xu Lingwei and her senior disciple sister Li Zihang in the back row and said to his second brother, “Be careful on the road.”
“Mm, drive.”
Wan Dongming, sitting in the passenger seat, nodded and told the driver to start the car. Wan Yunting and Jin Xiuwen watched them leave.
In the car, Wan Dongming couldn’t help but turn his head and smile at Fang Yanxi behind him. “Yanxi, my third brother is like that. Don’t be angry with him, alright?”
Facing his second brother, Fang Yanxi’s expression softened. She said, “I just want to teach him a lesson so he doesn’t do this again. He just likes to act rashly.”
Wan Dongming smiled and nodded at her words, then sighed. “Now that his abilities are greater, his responsibilities are also greater. He likes to rush forward when something happens, but I support you this time. He really needs to be taught a lesson. Don’t worry, I’ll talk to him properly later.”
Fang Yanxi smiled slightly and nodded, not saying anything further. However, in her heart, she was still angry about that woman Ling Wei. She knew that the man and Ling Wei had a complicated relationship.
“Yanxi, have a tangerine.”
Jiang Peipei, sitting behind her, offered her a tangerine. Fang Yanxi took it and then turned to look at Jiang Peipei behind her, nodding slightly. “Thank you…”
“You kid, you’re truly blessed to be alive.”
After Fang Yanxi and the others drove away, Jin Xiuwen and Wan Yunting walked back towards the tent camp. Jin Xiuwen then smiled and said, “But Old Wan, be honest, what’s your situation with Sister Ling Wei?”
“What do you mean what’s my situation with her? Stop talking nonsense,” Wan Yunting glanced at him, speaking with a guilty conscience.
“Still saying there’s nothing?”
Jin Xiuwen obviously didn’t believe him. “It’s one thing for our friends to come, but her coming means your relationship is unusual!”
Wan Yunting turned his head and glared at him, saying, “She and I are considered friends, right? Oh, if you say that, then I have something going on with Dai Qiuyue too!”
“How dare you.”
Jin Xiuwen’s eyes immediately widened. He warned, “Let me tell you, Old Wan, I’m serious about Qiu Yue this time, so you can’t have any more thoughts about her!”
“You’re thinking too much.”
Wan Yunting smiled and said, “I wish you two could be together.”
“Alas, it’s a pity she still only has you in her heart,” Jin Xiuwen sighed immediately.
Wan Yunting’s expression froze. He smiled and patted Jin Xiuwen’s shoulder, saying, “You’re thinking too much again. In her heart, I’m at most a lifesaver. So, if you want to win the beauty’s heart, you need to put in more effort.”
Jin Xiuwen nodded and smiled, “The main thing is that you don’t have any intentions towards her.”
“Heh, such manners.”
Wan Yunting turned his head and glared at him, too lazy to bicker with Jin Xiuwen. He headed towards Gu Yuanbai and the others’ tents. Since they were leaving tomorrow morning, everyone was using the afternoon to do the follow-up work.
“Yunting…”
Just as he was about to enter the tent, he saw Han Shumei and Lin Xinlan hurrying over. Wan Yunting turned his head to look, then went to meet them, smiling. “Sister Han, General Manager Lin, why are you here?”
“Oh dear, I heard the news that you were rescued, so I came right away.”
Han Shumei directly took Wan Yunting’s arm and circled him, examining him. “Let me take a look, are you injured…”
Wan Yunting pulled her and smiled. “Sister Han, you were worried. I’m fine, not injured.”
“That’s good.”
Han Shumei was beaming with joy and then said, “I was so scared when I heard you were in trouble that I didn’t dare tell your grandmother. I was afraid she wouldn’t be able to handle the worry.”
Wan Yunting nodded with a smile, then asked, “By the way, Sister Han, when are you leaving?”
“Tomorrow.”
Lin Xinlan smiled and said, “The rescue work is completed, and the donated supplies have reached the disaster victims, so we are returning tomorrow.”
“Yes, and when is your Traditional Chinese Medicine Association’s medical rescue team leaving?” Han Shumei asked.
“Tomorrow. I still have to do some follow-up work with them later,” Wan Yunting said with a smile.
“Good, as long as you’re alright, I’m relieved,” Han Shumei nodded and smiled. She had come just to see Wan Yunting.
Because she had delivered supplies the day before yesterday, she had also stayed on the mountain for a day. She had been worried and afraid that Wan Yunting might have an accident. Now that she saw him return safe and sound, Han Shumei was relieved.
“By the way, Sister Han, have you donated to the disaster area reconstruction efforts?” Wan Yunting asked.
“Yes.”
Han Shumei nodded and pointed at Lin Xinlan beside her, smiling. “This time, Xinlan and I collaborated with our Love Charity Organization and plan to donate a sum of money for the disaster area reconstruction. However, the amount has not yet been determined. We will discuss it after returning.”
Wan Yunting nodded and smiled. “If you need money, let me know. I also plan to donate to the disaster area reconstruction in the name of our orphanage’s charity fund.”
“Okay.”
Han Shumei smiled and said, “How about this, after we all return to Hua Du, let’s find a time to specifically discuss this matter.”
“Alright, it’s settled then.”
Wan Yunting nodded, chatted with Han Shumei and Lin Xinlan for a while, and then they returned to Bai City.
Wan Yunting was also doing follow-up work with Shen Yingrui and the others. Many of the disaster victims in the settlement had already been transferred to the rear, so there weren’t many people left.
By 8 PM, all the members of the Lingnan Traditional Chinese Medicine Association’s rescue team gathered outside the camp for dinner.
However, everyone ate very simply, with self-heating hot pots bought from outside, similar to instant noodles…
