101: Chapter 100: Recapture 101: Chapter 100: Recapture Lin Shanhu comforted his daughter briefly before walking over to Liu Hun and deeply bowing as he said, “Brother Ling, you’ve saved me, Lin Shanhu, twice now! You’ve saved our Lin Family troop twice! I, Lin Shanhu, am at a loss for how to repay you!” “Where is this coming from, Band Leader Lin? It’s what I, Liu Hun, should do.” Liu Hun hurriedly helped Lin Shanhu stand upright. Glaring hatefully at Wang Tiankun, who lay on the ground like a dead dog, Lin Shanhu then said to all the disciples, “Disciples of the Lin Family troop listen! Today’s events were entirely orchestrated by this dog-traitor Wang Tiankun! The bowl of poisoned soup I drank was also handed to me by Li Gan!” Upon hearing this, Li Gan and Huang Jie, like competitors in a race, fell over each other vying to cling to Liu Hun’s thighs, crying and pleading for mercy pa. It turned out that after Liu Hun had taken Lin Shanhu into the room, he had used his superpower to revive him and listened to the whole cause and effect of the incident. Suspecting something fishy, he then instructed Lin Shanhu to re-emerge at a crucial moment. Hiding in the room and having heard the entire process, Lin Shanhu felt both admiration and gratitude towards Liu Hun. He had not expected a young man to possess such decisive methods, nor had he thought that Wang Tiankun would dare to come back to harm him and seize the Lin Family troop. “Wang Tiankun! You damned thing! Dog trash! Just now, you were still framing me! You’ve truly lost all shame, no wonder you are from a troupe, you really can act!” Ying Nanhong said, unable to restrain herself from kicking Wang Tiankun a few times to vent her anger. Lin Mengmei was so angry that she trembled all over, heart filled with extreme guilt for her earlier doubts about Liu Hun. The disciples of the Lin Family troop spat where they felt like spitting and kicked with their feet wherever they wanted, especially those who had believed Wang Tiankun, feeling a sense of mortified shame as if they had been deceived. “Disciples of the Lin Family troop, kneel down!” Lin Shanhu suddenly bellowed like a tiger. With a “whoosh,” the well-trained disciples of the Lin Family troop kneeled down in unison. “Everyone listen well! From today onwards! Seeing Liu Hun is like seeing me! Obeying Liu Hun’s orders is like obeying my orders! If anyone disobeys in secret or acts perfunctorily, they will be dealt with according to our troop’s regulations! Bow three times! Show your respect as you would to a master!” With an iron decree from Lin Shanhu, not a single disciple dared to disobey! The sound of uniform bowing and the disciples’ promises made even Ying Nanhong, a woman, feel her blood boiling. Liu Hun, who was amidst them, knew from this moment onward that the Lin Family troop had completely become a part of his strength! Wang Tiankun, Huang Jie, and Li Gan had become stepping stones under his feet! Now in full control of the theatre troupe, Liu Huyi fully utilized its potential. Now, wherever the troupe’s stages were set up, the agricultural products of Wanbao Village were sold. Wanbao Village’s and his own, Liu Hun’s name grew ever larger. But as the saying goes, “A tall tree catches the wind,” and just when Liu Hun’s fortunes were flourishing, he genuinely attracted a striking whirlwind! A heavy Hummer kicked up a cloud of dust as it stopped at the entrance of Wanbao Village. A man in a suit and polished leather shoes stepped out with his head held high from one door; from the other emerged a woman in tight-fitting black leather pants that outlined her round buttocks, her lips painted as if she had drunk two shots of blood, atop a high nose bridge – she certainly had a bit of a Western flavor. Removing her sunglasses, she revealed a pair of apricot eyes shaded with green eyeshadow, the epitome of three parts seductive, three parts sharp, and three parts a blend of East and West! “Oh! Is this preparation for a battle or what? Who brought this big metal shell to our village entrance? Look at all this dust; I wondered if some weasel had become a spirit, turning everything yellow!” “You think it’s an armored vehicle or something? It’s a car! Look at that guy! So domineering! Wow! And take another look at that woman; is she mixed-blood or what? Why are the corners of her eyes green? Those legs, tsk tsk tsk, enough for me to play with for a year!” “Cut it out! Play for a year, you shameless thing. Look at how tight those pants are, you can even see what’s between her legs. Such an enchantress coming to our village, I bet nothing good will come of it!” “...” After the dust had settled, the woman disdainfully fanned the dust in front of her, looking at the unchanged village entrance with nothing but contempt in her eyes, the same as she had felt the first time she came here. “Liu Hun! I said I would come back! This time, I will completely reveal your tricks!” A smile curled the woman’s lips, her delicate features and fiery figure leaving an unforgettable impression on anyone who saw her—she was none other than Cai Yan! “Assistant Liu, bring the Dreamless Orchid; let’s go into the village.” Cai Yan threw down her words with a chill, put her sunglasses back on, and completely ignored the surrounding villagers’ chatter as she strode proudly into Wanbao Village. At that time, Liu Hun, who had just finished dealing with a group of peddlers, was buried in his accounting. He had to clear up these accounts, as they all had to be handed over to Qin Yue for posting on the village bulletin board. “Snap!” Something was placed in front of Liu Hun, who glanced up slightly, saw a flowerpot, and spoke up, “This month’s share is all sold out, please come early next month!” “Snap!” The eight-centimeter high-heeled shoe suddenly landed on the table. Liu Hun looked up sharply and saw the flamboyant woman in front of him casually resting her leg on the office desk, and this woman... “Cai Yan?!” Liu Hun was stunned for a few seconds before recognizing the woman who had suddenly appeared in front of him, looking as arrogant as a goose, was indeed Cai Yan. “It seems your memory isn’t bad, you still remember me!” Cai Yan said with a cold chuckle and then took her legs off the desk. As soon as she put her legs down, a throbbing pain made her curse under her breath, “This godforsaken place! Can’t even wear high heels!” Seeing Cai Yan like this, Liu Hun knew she wasn’t harboring any good intentions and cautiously asked, “Are you here for the blueberry project?” He was genuinely worried that Yang Yide might pull the plug on the blueberry project at this critical juncture. Right now, the project was still a major income booster for the village, and any mishap would be a matter of life and death for the military order with the mayor. “Hmph!” Cai Yan uttered a disdainful snort and said, “I’m helping Yang Yide just to find something I’m searching for. I don’t give a damn about his trivial issues.” Hearing this, Liu Hun let out a sigh of relief and then asked, “What are you here for, then?” “Snap!” Cai Yan hadn’t even had the chance to speak when Liu Hua, the assistant standing next to him, slammed his hand on the table, stood up, and pointed at Liu Hun’s nose, shouting, “Mr. Ling, stop pretending with us! We came to this poor ravine today to tear off your fake mask!” “Hold on!” Liu Hun, seeing Liu Hua acting like a starving wild dog spotting food, signaled for him to calm down and said, “You’re a full-grown man; just stand there if you’re standing. I can see you, so don’t try to flaunt your presence like you’re rising from the dead. Don’t get all flustered; state your business, what are you really here for?” Cai Yan pointed at the flowerpot on the table and spoke to Liu Hun, “Dreamless Orchid, I suppose you still remember. I’ve been looking for the soil that can cultivate it. A long time ago, you managed to grow it here. But when I took it back to the lab to prepare for transplantation and propagation through plant division, thousands of experiments all failed.” Liu Hun glanced at the Nanhong, now just a stump, and of course, he remembered. He knew Cai Yan would definitely not be successful—it was truly something that could only thrive in Wanbao Village. The reason, of course, wasn’t any nonsense about the people and land of Wanbao Village being naturally superior, but rather his superpower. “What does that have to do with me? You asked me to revive it in the first place, and I did. You happily walked off with that pot as if you had won the lottery. Now, you come here with a broken pot to nag at me, what’s the deal?” Liu Hun said to Cai Yan with some helplessness, feeling that he really hadn’t done anything wrong. “Liar!” Cai Yan slammed the table and said to Liu Hun, “I wanted the Dreamless Orchid to grow in the soil, in nature, not just bloom in a pot and become an ornament! What trick did you use to make it grow only in a pot? Everything I’ve seen! I cannot prove with an experiment! It, this pot of Dreamless Orchid, nearly destroyed the world’s best education in natural biology I had at Oxford! I cannot tolerate such petty tricks subverting my understanding and the education I’ve received. So I’m here to get an explanation from you!” “Oh!” Liu Hun suddenly had a moment of realization, looking at Cai Yan’s delicate face which held anger and resentment as he said, “I get it, you don’t understand why this thing can live here with me, but not in your lab, right?” “It’s the propagated plants... Forget it! You wouldn’t understand! Yes, just like you said, now tell me why?” “With sharp eyes, Cai Yan stared at Liu Hun, confident that if the man in front of her lied, she could see it at a glance. “Why? I’ll tell you now, because this is Wanbao Village! Because I am Ling Fei!” Liu Hun leaned towards Cai Yan, speaking earnestly while meeting her gaze. However, he couldn’t help thinking to himself that of course, he couldn’t tell her the truth because even if she did believe him, she’d probably want to dissect him for study. “Snap!” Liu Hua, unwilling to be ignored, once again ‘resurrected’, slammed the table and yelled at Liu Hun, “I’m telling you, kid! This is our Ms. Cai! Whatever trick you’ve used, spit it out honestly. What’s so special about Wanbao Village, just a place where birds don’t even shit, and you, Liu Hun! Aren’t you just some rotten peasant bumpkin?” “Go stand to one side! Is it your turn to speak? Is it your place to comment on Wanbao Village or on me?” After Liu Hun finished talking, he decisively slapped Liu Hua in the face, never one to be polite to someone who spewed filth. Liu Hua, spinning like a carousel, twirled on the spot, wobbling for a while before stabilizing himself against the door frame. One hand on his slapped cheek and the other pointing at Liu Hun, his eyes were bloodshot as if Liu Hun had murdered his own father, he screamed, “You... you dared to hit me? Is there no law anymore? I... I’m going to sue you!” “Suit yourself! The closest police station is at 51 East Street, Ping’an Town, next to Old Wang’s butcher shop. Make sure not to go to the wrong place; the station chief is Zhao Mingjie. Just report my name when you get there. Off you go!” Liu Hun waved his hand dismissively at Liu Hua, as if brushing away flecks of oil on soup, utterly unconcerned.
