Chapter 628 - Chapter 628 628. Those who work with words have really dirty

Chapter 628: 628. Those who work with words have really dirty hearts_1 Chapter 628: 628. Those who work with words have really dirty hearts_1 He Kuang just kept babbling on and on.

“Hmm,” Lun Chuan said, his face expressionless, very aloof.

Then he subtly shifted his leg, which was both sore and numb.

He Kuang didn’t notice but instead picked up his teacup and took a deep sip:

“Ah, this tea is really fragrant! No idea how you found this treasure of a seller. It’s just so hard to buy anything, always have to compete for it in the live stream–hey, did you get the tea-flavored egg seasoning packet from yesterday’s sale? I missed out on that one!”

Lun Chuan covertly glanced at the unopened express package he had.

He hadn’t snagged one, nor had he caught the live stream, but if things went as expected, the seasoning packet would definitely be in the express box.

“Plus, there’s nothing growing in the fields now, and the stores aren’t selling either. I’m relying entirely on this tea to get by these days. My wife is going crazy wanting their honey, but every time I ask, it’s ‘out of stock, out of stock’…”

Lun Chuan, who still had five bottles of honey in his storage room, pretended not to hear.

Fortunately, He Kuang could chatter enough for a whole drama on his own. The topic had already shifted back to Qin Yun:

“He’s not going to get heatstroke out there in the midday sun, is he?”

“No chance,” Lun Chuan said as he stood up. “How could he make Chen Li go soft and feel sorry for him if he doesn’t resort to a self-harm trick to admit his errors and apologize?”

He Kuang: …

“Damn.”

He couldn’t help but curse: “Your people simply have dirty hearts when it comes to telling a story–I need to have a word with him. Men become bad as soon as they have money, take a leaf out of my book: I deposit all of my monthly royalties straight into my wife’s bank account! My wife pays all our household expenses, and she gives me 5,000 yuan in pocket money every month, which is really generous!”

“Hmm,” Lun Chuan nodded. “I just messaged Chen Li. Once Qin Yun is back inside, all his royalties will definitely be in her possession too, and she will give him 3,000 a month.”

In actuality, Chen Li had said:

“The sprout has to be crushed as soon as it appears! So the money is in my hands now, and I’m willing to give him 5,000 a month too. But if he makes a mistake, I will deduct 2,000 each month!”

What can you do with 3,000 yuan?

Go out to eat, shop, and watch movies?

Only if Qin Yun invites people out for a 5-yuan honey snow drink–if they’re even willing to accept, that is.

He Kuang was dumbfounded.

“You knew all this in advance?!”

“No,” Lun Chuan called back from the kitchen, his voice carrying over. “I just convinced him, and then told Chen Li.”

He Kuang fell silent, and suddenly glanced again at the cracked table leg–it had really scared him at the time.

After all, Lun Chuan was never known to lose his temper before!

But now, he stuck to the same old saying: Those who deal with words truly have hearts that are–

“Cowpea beef stew, want some?” Lun Chuan asked. “From Tian Yuan’s.”

“Yes yes yes!!!” He Kuang instantly forgot all about their conversation.

All the ingredients were ready, and the stew was already in the pot; the remaining dishes just needed a quick stir-fry.

When Lun Chuan beckoned He Kuang to help serve the food, the whole house was filled with the aroma of the meal, which was enough to make anyone’s mouth water uncontrollably.

Meanwhile, Qin Yun, under the blazing sun on the balcony, struggled through sweat and scorching heat as he video-called his wife and tried to navigate the banking app to transfer money and link cards, until his phone became too hot and shut down… and he finally gave up.

Now refreshed, he pushed open the door to the air-conditioned room, nearly collapsing onto the cool floor in relief.

“It’s so hot, just too hot! I’m gonna die from this heat!”

He then dove straight into the bathroom and began furiously rinsing his head and scrubbing his face. Once he dried off and looked up again, he suddenly sniffed the air:

“Damn, what did you make? It smells amazing!”

“Exactly!”

He Kuang had been quietly fuming for a while now: “What rice did you cook in your rice cooker? This fragrance is just abnormal! And these cowpeas with black fungus, they must also be from Tian Yuan’s, right?”

“But where did these dried eggplants come from?”

“And these incredibly fragrant dried chili peppers, where did they come from? How come I’ve never seen them on the shelves in the store?”

Eating and drinking, issues of great importance in life. When the topic hit home, the two brothers simultaneously showed their ferocious colors:

“Spill the beans now!”

Lun Chuan remained unflustered, “Because I referred you guys to shop at the store, and you bought a lot, this is my commission.”

He Kuang wept with envy, “Why! The boss should have said it was referral marketing, I could have brought him a whole bunch of customers!”

But it was Qin Yun who suddenly caught on:

“That’s not right, you said when you brought over the tea last time that it was given to you by someone you saved from a car accident… Don’t take advantage of He Kuang being foolish and trick him!”

Upon hearing this, He Kuang turned to Qin Yun and hissed sarcastically:

“Exactly! Who’s as smart as you, huh? Going shopping, eating out, watching movies, tsk tsk tsk, such wisdom!”

At this mention, Qin Yun guiltily fell silent.

…

The three grown men were setting up the dishes and were so enticed by the aroma that they were utterly confused. Yet the last serving of stew still needed a bit more cooking, and Lun Chuan, the heartless man, could actually hold back from telling them to eat!

Staying inside was sheer torture, so Qin Yun tried to make idle chatter:

“I just called the copyright holders to say that I’m not involved with the follow-up production anymore–hey, Lun Chuan, I heard that your producer also invited you, aren’t you going to check it out?”

“Right!”

He Kuang pondered with seeming thoughtfulness, “The both of us are already taken, we must uphold male virtue and not go into that flashy world–But you’re not! Shouldn’t you take the chance to find a girlfriend? You should go! There are so many beauties in the entertainment industry!”

Lun Chuan casually lifted the beef out of the pot, his voice slow and steady, “I’m afraid someone might ask me out to shop, dine, and watch movies, and I’d miss out on making two thousand a day.”

Qin Yun: …

So we’re not getting past this, are we?!

But feeling ultimately in the wrong and knowing his brother truly wished him well, he awkwardly changed the subject:

“Right, where’s your alcohol? Open a good bottle, let’s have a drink. Consider it a cure for my stupidity, and I’ll toast to you two.”

Lun Chuan put down the spatula, looking at the two determined to squash in his kitchen, “You want to use my booze to toast me?”

But this time, both pretended to be dumb and didn’t answer.

Instead, He Kuang switched topics again, focusing on the raised scars on his arm and body:

“It’s been so long since then, you should be able to drink a bit, right?”

“Ah, did you guys watch Tian Yuan’s live stream last time? I happened to see them making alcohol! It made me so envious, I drank alone at night, but still couldn’t sate my craving!”

“Exactly, exactly!”

Qin Yun was quick to chime in, even more avid than Lun Chuan as a fan.

“When I saw the alcohol steaming out, I wished I could teleport! Why doesn’t he sell it?”

“Me too! It was so frustrating–I just hate that I don’t know the exact address, or else I would have driven there straight away!”

“I even asked the customer service in private if I could buy it, but no one responded. If we can’t deal in person, I could transfer the money, for crying out loud! Ten thousand, twenty thousand, just name the price!”

Speaking of that sorghum liquor, the two were filled with dissatisfaction at not getting their hands on it.

Meanwhile, Lun Chuan paused in what he was doing and glanced over at the box–

It seemed like he knew what was in that heavy box.

And the next moment, the eyes of He Kuang and Qin Yun followed suit.

Then, both paused momentarily before suddenly springing into action like freed rabbits, dashing forward–

“That’s right! It’s the address from Qingxi Town in Yun City!”
