In the blink of an eye, a day had passed.

Early in the morning, Liu Zixuan and Liu Ruyan boarded the bus heading to Lingxiu Village.

Both of them felt somewhat melancholic sitting in the car.

So many things happened in the city over such a short period.

The Wang Family was wiped out, leaving only Liu Ruyan and her mother from the Liu Family, while the Hao Family had also consumed much previously, now settling into their own affairs.

It's hard to believe by anyone in the city how the once three-pronged Yuqing City turned out this way.

This reshuffle... it's terrifying!

As for the remaining people, they all had their own busy lives.

The businesses of the three major families plummeted, providing Zhu Yi with a perfect opportunity to rise.

Meanwhile, Liu Ruyan's mother was temporarily residing in that villa, and perhaps after some time, she would come to Lingxiu Village as well.

As for Miss Jiang Yiyi, she was busily recruiting employees, moving into that building, and urging Liu Zixuan to quickly get the underwear production going.

Liu Zixuan appeared calm in response, as how the Yuqing City turned out had little relation to him, as long as he was happy, it was all good!

Liu Ruyan, sitting beside Liu Zixuan, looked at the familiar scenery outside the car window and laughed, "Not driving a car, choosing to take the bus."

Liu Zixuan shrugged, "Leave the car in Yuqing City; let's ask Wang Kun another day to park it at your villa, and then we'll get another one."

Liu Ruyan thought for a moment but didn't say much, and then asked, "By the way, weren't you saying before you were going to Huanyun Mountain to get some Ghost Gate Needle?"

Liu Zixuan raised his eyebrows, "No rush, the Profound Thunder Needle isn't easy to obtain; I have to return to Lingxiu Village to prepare a bit. Besides, it's been a long time since I've been back; I need to handle the village affairs."

"With cooperation with Zhu Yi and Sister Yiyi, the factory will be up and running soon enough. But you need to manage the clinic well."

Listening to Liu Ruyan's words, Liu Zixuan smiled mischievously, "The clinic isn't urgent."

"Then what's urgent?"

"Ahem."

Liu Zixuan cleared his throat solemnly and said boastfully, "To strive and work hard for all ninety-nine women in Lingxiu Village!?"

Liu Ruyan slapped him, "Shameless. I bet your mind is already drifting towards some beauty in the village!"

"Ah, with such a pretty beauty like you around, how could I think of anyone else?"

"What if I'm not around?"

"Then surely I'd think of others. The village is full of women; I can't revolve around just you!"

"You greedy fellow!"

The two playfully bantered in the car, just like a couple on a trip, making others envious.

Upon reaching the town, Liu Zixuan and Jiang Yiyi called out the brothers Zhu Yiqun and Yang Yizhi, and car shop owner Zhang Yuhang.

It had been a while since they last came; everyone had a meal together during which Yang Yizhi and Zhu Yiqun reported their work to Liu Zixuan.

No doubt, these two lovable rogues had really established themselves in the town, practically the bosses of the place.

Also, they set up a KTV in town which, despite being small, was the only one, buzzing with business daily, urging Liu Zixuan to come see it.

Liu Zixuan merely agreed, but didn't go; no KTV could compare to the beauties of Lingxiu Village.

Collecting a large Land Rover from Zhang Yuhang's shop, they then headed toward the village with Liu Ruyan.

At that moment, their hearts were racing with eagerness to return.

"It seems like during this time everyone changed, remember at the beginning, Zhu Yiqun and Yang Yizhi were just little hoodlums, now both are bosses." Liu Ruyan exclaimed.

"That's thanks to me, isn't it? If it weren't for me promoting them, would they be where they are today?" Liu Zixuan chuckled proudly.

"Always bragging." Liu Ruyan rolled her eyes at him, looking at the cornfield, "When we left, the corn barely reached the waist, now it's taller than a person!"

"Indeed, doing those kinds of things in the cornfield is more suitable. It's so hidden!" Liu Zixuan flashed an evil smile, "Want to try? It's thrilling!"

"No way!" Liu Ruyan firmly declared, "Liu Zixuan, if you keep this up, I'll tell you your abstinence period will be extended!"

"Alright, I won't say anything anymore." Liu Zixuan pinched his forehead, damn it, nearly about to be over; can't afford more abstinence.

If it continued, he'd probably have to look for Hu Lijing and Sister Zhang.

With Hu Lijing's charming face flashing in his mind, Liu Zixuan couldn't help but smile.

Seeing him smile so lasciviously, Liu Ruyan asked, "Thinking of naughty things again?"

"Nothing... nothing." Liu Zixuan took out a few lingerie designs that Jiang Yiyi had previously made and handed them to Liu Ruyan.

"These are designed by that girl Jiang Yiyi, take a look."

Liu Ruyan took them and glanced, immediately her face turned red, "Isn't this too revealing!"

"She says this is fashion."

"Are you really going to use her designs?"

"Of course, and once they're made, you have to be the first to try them on for me to see."

…

In the midst of their conversation, the two arrived at Lingxiu Village.

The village entrance was silent, not a single person was seen.

"There shouldn't be no one at this time," Liu Ruyan furrowed her brows.

"Maybe it's too hot, everyone's at home taking a nap."

"But it's already three o'clock," Liu Ruyan pointed at the time, "let's go and ask Sister Lian."

The two parked the car in front of Sister Lian's house, but once they got out, they were taken aback.

When they left, Sister Lian's house was only partly burned down, where Liu Zixuan had stayed, but now the entire house was a ruin…

"Something must have happened. Sister Lian's house is gone." Liu Ruyan said anxiously.

"Don't panic, you go left, I'll go right to ask the neighbors." Liu Zixuan also had a bad premonition in his heart.

After splitting up, they went to inquire with neighbors nearby, but every house was deserted and empty.

About half an hour later, Liu Zixuan and Liu Ruyan reconvened by the car.

"Not a single person on my side."

"Strange, where did everyone go?"

"Could they be at the factory?" Liu Ruyan suggested, "Why not call Huang Youcai?"

Liu Zixuan took out his phone and dialed. After a moment, the call was connected.

"Huang Youcai, where are you all?"

"Brother Zixuan, you're back?" Huang Youcai said with excitement.

"Yes."

"Quick, come to the village office; everyone is here, something happened in the village!" Huang Youcai said anxiously, and at the same moment, sounds of many women were heard from his side of the call.

Liu Zixuan put down the phone and hurriedly pulled Liu Ruyan to the village office.

Something happened to the village? Just what happened?
