"Hehe, Doctor Zhao, misunderstanding, it was all a misunderstanding just now!"

"If I had known earlier that you had this kind of relationship with Boss Qiu, then there wouldn't have been any need for this unpleasantness between us."

"Weren't you just here for Xu Wenjing? Fine, we admit defeat today. In the future, Xu Wenjing can collect mountain goods freely, I definitely won't have any complaints from you, alright?"

Liu Hongfei rubbed his hands together, smiling broadly as he walked towards Zhao Tienan.

Just as arrogant as he was a moment ago, he's now that much more humble, to the point of being almost repulsive.

"You scum, now you're afraid? Too late!"

"Let me tell you, I don't care where you want to monopolize mountain goods; in this Fengshan Village area, you, Liu Hongfei, can never set foot here again in your lifetime, or I'll break your legs."

Zhao Tienan said coldly, appearing calm and collected but exuding an extremely fierce aura.

"Alright, I understand. I'll certainly do as you say from now on."

"Doctor Zhao, how about this? I won't set foot in Fengshan Village again, but before that, let me treat you to a meal and a night out, so I can make you a good friend before I leave, what do you say?"

In order to save his life, Liu Hongfei was practically groveling, showing such fawning respect to Zhao Tienan as if he were treating him more respectfully than his own father.

"Do I lack a meal or your little show?"

"You scum, don't think a small token like this will gloss over the matter. I'm telling you, that's wishful thinking!"

Zhao Tienan waved his hand dismissively, his eyelids drooping, speaking in a cold tone.

"..."

At that moment, Liu Hongfei suddenly leaned close to Zhao Tienan's ear, muttering for a while.

During this time, he sneakily glanced at Xu Wenjing and Liu Jia not far away, as if deliberately avoiding them.

"Hmph, these two sleazy old men are definitely plotting some filthy deal, they're two of a kind."

Xu Wenjing put down the large sickle in her hand, muttering to herself.

Liu Jia wasn't much better, fidgeting anxiously, stomping her feet. Even from this distance, Zhao Tienan could catch a whiff of jealousy in the air.

"Alright, it's a deal then!"

"But let's be clear, if the show you mentioned isn't that exciting, I definitely won't call Boss Qiu."

Zhao Tienan raised an eyebrow suddenly, no longer showing the worried expression from before, replaced by a very excited demeanor, looking like a little cat eager to taste something new.

"Nan, don't worry, this time I promise it will be worth your while."

"But today might not be possible because there isn't enough time. How about tomorrow?"

Liu Hongfei smiled brightly, his wrinkles almost forming the shape of a chrysanthemum.

"Sure, I happen to be busy tonight as well, so let's set it for tomorrow night."

Zhao Tienan nodded slowly. Though eager, he knew he had something particularly important to do tonight, something that mustn't be delayed by alcohol.

That is, Zhao Tienan planned to livestream tonight to sell the mountain goods Xu Wenjing had collected...
