Chapter 190: Wang Ye: Damn, it really is him

~8 min read 1,460 words

"They have been following me since just now."

Noticing Lin Xuan's actions, Xiao Qing spoke up.

"You didn't deal with them?"

Lin Xuan smiled and asked Xiao Qing upon hearing this, and Xiao Qing immediately curled her lip.

"Benefactor, didn't you say I shouldn't hurt people casually with Sister?"

"Listening to you, it sounds like you're blaming me."

Lin Xuan chuckled and shook his head upon hearing this.

"I just saw that Zhuge Qing earlier."

Xiao Qing recounted what had happened just now.

"With these two here, Benefactor, if the people from the Company come over, these two might get dragged into it."

Xiao Bai already knew from Lin Xuan roughly what would happen at Biyou Village.

"You don't need to worry about that; the Company won't wipe everyone out in one go, and even for the die-hards, they will be captured and dealt with later."

After saying this, Lin Xuan looked up toward the door.

A figure was walking toward this side.

Wang Ye.

Originally, Wang Ye was still hesitating, but seeing the door wide open and the three people in the room looking this way, he simply quickened his pace.

As he approached, Wang Ye sized up the three people in the room.

There were no traces of a disguise, and there was no flow of Qi when they stood up.

However, if the real person Lin Xuan of Baiyun Guan wanted to hide these traits, it would naturally be impossible for him to discover them.

Recalling the back he had seen earlier, Wang Ye walked to the door.

"Something the matter?"

Lin Xuan looked at Wang Ye and spoke directly.

"Are the three of you from outside the village?"

Hearing the question, Wang Ye countered with a question of his own.

"What does that have to do with you?"

Xiao Qing put her hands on her hips upon hearing this.

"It doesn't, but I also came from outside; are the three of you here for a vacation too?"

Wang Ye said, still intending to find a flaw.

"We are indeed here for a vacation; the environment here is quite nice!"

Lin Xuan nodded.

"The environment is indeed nice, it's just a bit inconvenient; cars can't drive in, and it's not easy to find this place if you want to get in."

Wang Ye said, his confusion deepening.

"Do you have business?"

Lin Xuan looked at Wang Ye and asked again.

"Not really, it's just that you look a lot like a friend of mine, so I came over to make friends."

Wang Ye shook his head upon hearing this.

"Also, this place isn't very peaceful; it would be best if the three of you left after playing for a day or two."

Wang Ye's attention remained on Lin Xuan.

He secretly analyzed him from his attire to his temperament, but there was always a sense of déjà vu.

But if you had to say what it was, he couldn't recall it for a moment.

"You don't need to worry about that."

Lin Xuan shook his head upon hearing this.

"Alright!"

Wang Ye nodded upon hearing this, turned around, and walked away directly.

This encounter left Xiao Qing and Xiao Bai feeling puzzled.

Had this guy discovered something?

Or was he just here to strike up a conversation?

Lin Xuan watched Wang Ye leave with interest.

"Benefactor, is something wrong with this person?"

Xiao Qing felt Wang Ye was strange and spoke subconsciously.

Lin Xuan almost rolled his eyes upon hearing this, and Xiao Bai also looked at Xiao Qing speechlessly.

Wang Ye, who hadn't walked far, paused at the sound of this address.

That's it!

Once the term "Benefactor" was uttered, Wang Ye immediately understood what the sense of déjà vu was just now.

When he saw Lin Xuan before, the two women beside him were standing on either side in this exact posture.

Their standing positions and orientations were almost the same.

Then Wang Ye gave a bitter smile and turned around, intending to come back, but as he looked up, he saw Lin Xuan waving his hand.

Was this telling him to leave?

Understanding Lin Xuan's gesture, Wang Ye bowed from afar and, without hesitation, turned and left.

"Benefactor, I'm sorry!"

Xiao Qing also knew that she had made a slip of the tongue.

"Anyway, Wang Ye has already noticed, so it doesn't matter if it's discovered."

Lin Xuan patted Xiao Qing's hand upon hearing this.

"Benefactor, what exactly are we doing this time?"

"We'll see how things go after the Company's Temporary Worker arrives."

Without the matter of Chen Duo, he was not very clear on exactly how the Company discovered this place.

However, there was no need to be overly concerned about that.

In any case, Biyou Village certainly wouldn't be able to hold them back; it made no difference whether he intervened or not.

He just wanted to see what kind of scene the Outsider Rock and Roll led by Feng Baobao would be.

Lin Xuan calculated in his heart.

Right, there was also the Wang Ye Outing Painting.

Thinking of this, Lin Xuan pondered in his heart.

That guy Wang Ye is very smart; knowing he is here, would he still have plans to leave?

If he didn't have that plan, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to see the famous scene when the time comes.

Thinking of this, Lin Xuan felt quite regretful.

On the other side, Wang Ye returned directly to his residence.

Damn, it really is that person.

This is getting interesting now.

Wang Ye felt that Biyou Village was definitely done for.

It's just that he didn't know to what extent this person would go.

Is this a move by the Ten Elders, with this newly promoted member of the Ten Elders acting personally?

But that doesn't seem right either.

Why use a butcher's knife to kill a chicken?

Isn't this too much of an overkill?

Wang Ye's mind was somewhat dazed, which led to him not noticing anyone in the room at all; he opened the door, walked in, caught a glimpse of a figure, and was so startled he jumped, only to be furious upon seeing it was Zhuge Qing.

"Damn, Old Qing, are you trying to scare me to death?"

Zhuge Qing looked at Wang Ye's reaction, his squinted eyes opening slightly.

"Old Wang, where did you go?"

"I... where could I go? Just went for a walk."

Wang Ye instinctively wanted to answer, but then he realized.

That person had come here in disguise, so they definitely didn't want to expose their identity; if he just said it like that, would there be a reckoning later if it got out?

Thinking of this, Wang Ye directly prevaricated.

"Old Qing, then what did you come here for? Don't plan on going back, waiting for me here until midnight?"

After prevaricating, Wang Ye directly used a counter-question to seize the initiative.

"Not really, I just went to Fu Rong's place; one of the women among those three people earlier took out over ten thousand to have Fu Rong make a few dishes and send them over."

Zhuge Qing recounted how Xiao Qing had approached silently just now.

The implication was that the three people were not ordinary, and might be experts.

Hearing Zhuge Qing's words, Wang Ye, who already understood Lin Xuan's identity, was left speechless.

But without Lin Xuan's permission, Wang Ye dared not casually reveal Lin Xuan's identity.

"Uh, regardless of whether she's an expert or not, we're leaving tonight."

Wang Ye hesitated for a moment and shook his head directly.

Having provoked that person, Wang Ye had no intention of staying any longer.

He could imagine what kind of major event was likely to follow, and he didn't want to get involved in such trouble.

He had a premonition that this trouble was even more troublesome than the matter of Outsiders monitoring his home before.

Hearing Wang Ye say this, Zhuge Qing opened his mouth as if to speak but stopped, then nodded.

"See you tonight!"

After saying this, Zhuge Qing stood up and left directly.

Watching Zhuge Qing's back, Wang Ye frowned slightly.

This guy, he isn't really planning on staying here, is he?

Didn't he analyze everything clearly before?

"What a pain!"

After taking off his baseball cap and scratching his head, Wang Ye muttered listlessly.

……

On the other side.

Qiu Rang led a group of Outsiders and had a direct conflict with the Temporary Worker who had tracked them down.

Without Chen Duo's help—no, or rather, after Chen Duo stood on the opposite side—this group of guys was defeated even more disastrously, with hardly any of them escaping.

"Jinfeng Popo, the old man sent me to save you."
