"It was a success. Previously, I had already chosen over a hundred branches in various cities and counties, and now all the branches have been renovated. Speaking of which, I really have to thank Sister Song Yaling. If it weren't for her help, I probably wouldn't have been able to pick so many well-located shops so quickly."

When Guo Meiyu mentioned Song Yaling, Hu Xiaobei quickly said, "Sister Song? I got it, I will definitely thank her properly."

"Little bastard, do you know? What she needs isn't your thanks, but you."

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and Hu Xiaobei said softly, "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? I don't understand!"

"Little bastard, still playing dumb with me? Do you think I can't see? Actually, it's obvious to everyone but the blind that Sister Song has feelings for you, so you must not let her down, okay?"

"Okay! I got it."

At this point, Hu Xiaobei changed the topic and asked, "Sister-in-law, aren't you jealous?"

Hearing Hu Xiaobei's concerned question, Guo Meiyu felt warmth in her heart and said softly, "I was at first, but later I thought, it doesn't matter. After all, I can't leave you, this little bastard, in this lifetime, so just do whatever you want."

"Hehe!"

Excitedly chuckling, Hu Xiaobei rubbed his hands together and quickly moved closer again.

"Ah... you little bastard, again..."

In her flustered speech, she shyly gave Hu Xiaobei a big roll of her eyes.

Hu Xiaobei chuckled, revisiting old places...

...

"What? What did you say? My health has a very serious problem?"

In the hospital, Lin Yongqiang looked at the doctor standing not far away, his expression extremely unsightly.

Previously, because he couldn't leave on his own, he had called an ambulance and was taken to the hospital.

Initially, Lin Yongqiang intended to find a familiar expert for a thorough checkup.

Additionally, he wanted to have all his teeth, knocked out by Hu Xiaobei, fixed.

But now, after receiving the medical report, he discovered that his health issues were much more severe than he had imagined, which made him panic...

Seeing Lin Yongqiang widen his eyes, the expert in the white coat quickly reassured him, "Chairman Lin, you must relax. You really shouldn't get worked up right now, really!"

Hearing the expert's reassurance, his lips ferociously twitched and he shouted, "Stop beating around the bush and just tell me what's the condition of my health?"

"Yes! Chairman Lin, you've sustained some external injuries, but these aren't very serious. We can even fit you with dentures for your teeth, but there's one issue with your body that we can't handle."

"What issue? Stop wasting time and just spit it out!"

"It's your kidneys. They seem to have been severely damaged, and there seems to be a terrifying energy wandering inside."

"What does that mean?"

"Simply put, it means you might never be able to be a real man again. But this isn't absolutely certain; medical advancements are so rapid, we will definitely overcome this issue in the future."

As the doctor explained to Lin Yongqiang, seeing his expression turn increasingly uglier, he quickly offered some consolation.

Previously, while examining Lin Yongqiang's body, the doctor had noticed his condition and thus discussed with several other experts to find a feasible solution, but they couldn't find any.

After staring expressionlessly at the expert for a while, Lin Yongqiang spoke hoarsely, "Am I a cripple now? Is that what you mean?"

"Chairman Lin, please... you must stay calm. You really can't afford to get agitated right now."

"Not get agitated? I'm already like this and you still tell me not to get agitated? Get out, just get out!"

"Yes! I'm leaving right now! Right away!"

His lips twitched fiercely, and he quickly turned and ran out.

After the doctor left, Lin Yongqiang let out a low roar and furiously smashed a nearby cup into pieces.

"Hu Xiaobei, it must be Hu Xiaobei's doing! I'll tear him to pieces, I must tear him to pieces."

Lin Yongqiang was right; the reason he had become like this was due to Hu Xiaobei.

Before, right before tossing him aside like a dead dog, Hu Xiaobei had injected a trace of Nine Wood True Qi into his body.

Under Hu Xiaobei's control, this Nine Wood True Qi would benefit the body.

But once Hu Xiaobei's control was gone, it would harm the body.

This was why Lin Yongqiang had become a cripple now.

"Oh my, such a rare visitor! I thought certain people might have forgotten all about me, their dowdy older sister."

At the Drunken Immortal Building, Hu Xiaobei had just arrived when he heard such a plaintive greeting.

Looking up, Hu Xiaobei saw Song Yaling in a deep black dress, giving him a look full of sorrow.

She looked as if he were the unfaithful lover and she the wronged wife.

"Sister, what are you talking about! I've just been busy lately. Look, as soon as I got some time, I came to see you.

"You always pick the sweetest words to say, no one believes you though! Sit down!"

"Okay!"

With a sly grin, Hu Xiaobei swiftly took a seat next to Song Yaling.

In an instant, the faint fragrance emanating from her excited Hu Xiaobei somewhat.

Glancing at Hu Xiaobei who was sitting very close to her, she shyly rolled her eyes at him, "You little bastard, the couch is so big, why must you sit right next to me, isn't that too crowded?"

"Hehe, Sister, it's warmer this way."

"Always full of excuses. By the way, I heard you went to Provincial City recently, and even met some real bigshots, right?"

"Sister, you know everything!"

"So, don't think about hiding anything from Sister in the future, got it?"

"How dare I!"

After saying this, Hu Xiaobei recounted the events that had happened while he was assisting Sun Fuan in the Provincial City.

After listening, a flicker of excitement passed through Song Yaling's eyes.

"Xiaobei, you've really become a phoenix rising to the top of the trees."

"Not really!"

"Now we can really strike back at Lin Yongqiang, I've found him sleazy for a while now."

"Oh? Sister, you knew him before?"

"I met him a few times at city-led gatherings before. Because he was so repulsive, I still remember that garbage."

"I see, don't worry about him anymore, he won't be able to cause trouble anymore."

"How so?"

"I've taken care of him."

"Taken care of?"

Hearing Song Yaling's puzzled question, Hu Xiaobei took a deep breath.

Quickly, Hu Xiaobei recounted how he had arranged for someone to lure Guo Meiyu out, emphasizing how he had dealt with him.

"Good! Good! Good! Well done! Such trash should be dealt with harshly."

Hearing that Hu Xiaobei had directly crippled Lin Yongqiang, Song Yaling laughed heartily.

...

Watching her breasts tremble with her hearty laughter, Hu Xiaobei felt envious.

Quickly, Hu Xiaobei asked somewhat anxiously, "Sister, you don't have any meetings today, do you?"

After asking, his expression grew uneasy.

Hu Xiaobei knew he had to ask seriously because last time, his intimate moment with Song Yaling was interrupted by an unexpected meeting...

Hearing Hu Xiaobei's anxious question, Song Yaling understood what Hu Xiaobei was implying.

After her cheeks flushed, Song Yaling shyly whispered, "Brother, before I answer, I'd like to ask, if Sister doesn't have any meetings today, what do you plan to do?"

After a brief pause, Hu Xiaobei asked excitedly, "Sister, are you saying there's no meeting today?"

"Yes, did you think Sister is always that busy? If that was the case, Sister would have died of exhaustion long ago!"

"True!"

With that chuckle, Hu Xiaobei didn't hesitate and immediately scooped her up…
