At the same time, at the Wang family in the neighboring city.
Wang Bi was lazily reclining on a lounge chair, gazing at the expansive courtyard before him, a smile playing on his lips.
For a country bumpkin to dare offend their Wang family, it was simply overestimating himself!
Thinking of Wang Xiao, whose limbs had been severed, and Wang Xiao, who had been thrown into prison, a cold glint flashed in Wang Bi's eyes!
"Mr. Wang, Mr. Lin is here to see you."
Just as Wang Bi was lost in his excitement, the butler's words interrupted his thoughts. Wang Bi waved his hand, signaling the butler to bring the person in.
"Old Lin, what brings you here to visit me?"
Hearing footsteps, Wang Bi turned to look at Lin Sheng, who was walking towards him. The cold glint in his eyes vanished instantly.
Although he hated Er Zhu to the bone, Lin Sheng was his old friend of many years, and there was no need to take his anger out on others. Moreover, that Wang Er Zhu was already dead!
"Old Wang, we are both from influential families. We shouldn't resort to killing a young man, should we?"
Lin Sheng suppressed the anger in his heart and stated his purpose directly, without any pleasantries.
He had not wanted to get involved in the affair between Wang Bi and Er Zhu, but he was afraid his son was unreliable. After much thought, he came to the Wang family.
"He deserves it. Three members of my Wang family were harmed by him like this. I'm merely making him bankrupt, which is already being merciful to him!"
"To offend my Wang family, knowing full well that you are a young man with no power or influence, shows his own stupidity!"
Hearing Lin Sheng actually pleading for Er Zhu, Wang Bi's face immediately darkened, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.
"Is that so? I don't think so!"
Just as Wang Bi was about to say something, Lin Sheng suddenly recalled Wang Xiao's foolish demeanor at the time, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.
When it came to foolishness, no one could be more foolish than Wang Xiao, who clearly intended to teach Er Zhu a lesson but ended up sending himself to the police station...
Thinking of this, Lin Sheng couldn't help but chuckle inwardly, but seeing Wang Bi's cold gaze, he could only suppress it.
"Mr. Wang, those... those people are back!"
Just as Wang Bi was about to speak, he saw Guan Jian rush in in a panic. He seemed about to say something, but upon seeing Lin Sheng, he changed his address.
Lin Sheng was completely bewildered, but Wang Bi had already guessed something and smiled, nodding.
"Old Lin, let's not waste time on useless talk. I'll show you a big surprise!"
The butler was about to say more, but Wang Bi smiled and waved towards the entrance. Before the butler could stop him, the injured bodyguards stumbled in, looking dejected.
Huh?
Seeing the bodyguards covered in blood, Wang Bi's smile instantly froze, a look of shock and anger flashing in his eyes.
"What happened here?"
Wang Bi frowned, looking at the bodyguards lying on the ground and shouting.
"We... we..."
The bodyguards were sweating profusely from the pain. They wanted to tell the truth, but in front of Lin Sheng, they didn't know whether they should.
"Speak!"
At this moment, Wang Bi was desperate to know the truth and didn't care about Lin Sheng, urging them loudly.
Enduring the severe pain, the bodyguards spoke one after another. Listening to their words, Wang Bi was filled with fury!
That country bumpkin not only didn't die, but he also injured all the bodyguards he had sent out!
Even the strongest bodyguard had been killed by him!
"Idiots! You can't even kill a country person. What use are you to me!"
With a roar, Wang Bi swept everything off the coffee table. Fragments flew everywhere, and the bodyguards trembled in fear.
Lin Sheng, standing beside him, frowned, his face flushed as he looked at Wang Bi. He knew Wang Bi had taken measures, but he hadn't expected him to still want to take Er Zhu's life!
And Er Zhu was indeed very strong, having injured so many people and yet remaining completely unharmed!
Lin Sheng let out a long sigh and involuntarily looked in the direction of Shiliu Village. A hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.
This kid was truly a phoenix flying out of the village!
"All of you, get out! Don't ever appear before me again!"
Wang Bi grew more and more furious as he thought about it. He waved his hand and roared at the bodyguards.
The bodyguards didn't dare to utter a sound and retreated as quickly as possible. The butler was also too scared to linger. Now, only Wang Bi and Lin Sheng were left in the courtyard.
Being repeatedly humiliated made Wang Bi furious. His eyes darted around, and his fists made cracking sounds.
"Old Wang, just stop here. Er Zhu is very capable and not someone you can deal with!"
Lin Sheng didn't want to persuade him, but out of consideration for their long-standing friendship, he offered a piece of advice.
"What great capability can a farmer have? I refuse to believe that I, from a prestigious noble family, cannot deal with a mere farmer!"
"I have important matters to attend to today, so I won't see you out!"
Before Lin Sheng could finish speaking, Wang Bi had already dismissed him. Seeing Wang Bi's stubborn refusal to change, Lin Sheng shook his head helplessly.
Fine, he had said all he could. Since Wang Bi insisted on being foolish, let him be.
No wonder Wang Xiao was so foolish. He now understood who that guy took after!
Watching Lin Sheng's retreating back, Wang Bi's head ached with anger. He punched the coffee table, and a crack instantly appeared on it!
Wang Er Zhu, I'll see how strong you really are!
Wang Bi was so angry that his lungs felt like they would explode, but Er Zhu's mood was excellent, as he had already arrived at Muyuan Village, a small village about ten kilometers away from Shiliu Village.
As early as half a month ago, through Ma Liang's introduction, Er Zhu had cooperated with Muyuan Village to plant a large quantity of fruits and vegetables here. These were enough to cover the normal expenses of two hotels.
"You are Er Zhu, right? My name is Lin Feng, the village head of Muyuan Village."
Er Zhu stood at the entrance of the village, looking at the even more dilapidated village than Shiliu Village used to be. Suddenly, a man in his fifties or sixties enthusiastically shook his hand.
The man had white hair and a face full of vicissitudes. If one didn't know, they would think he was already in his seventies or eighties.
"Wang Er Zhu."
Er Zhu smiled slightly, gently shook Lin Feng's hand, and then walked towards the farmland not far away.
"Heh heh, we didn't get to meet when we signed the contract last time. I thought you were an old man, but I didn't expect you to be so young."
Lin Feng chuckled as he looked at Er Zhu, his eyes filled with fawning and nervousness. He knew about the situation in Taohua Village, and the situation in Shiliu Village was widely known!
"Yes, how are those fruits and vegetables growing?"
Seeing Lin Feng about to speak again, Er Zhu quickly shifted the topic to business.
He was here to check on the fruits and vegetables, not to listen to Lin Feng's flattery. Besides, he didn't have time for such trivial matters.
"Alas, it's been dry lately, and the crops are almost dead!"
Speaking of this, Lin Feng's face instantly fell. He looked at the farmland not far away with helplessness and regret.
