Chapter 168: 168 Is it your doing (first update)

Baozi stood still, doubtful whether his mother had made some mistake, "Mom, why should I apologize to her? I didn’t do anything wrong to her."

Even if he was planning to drug someone, it was supposed to be that man, not a pregnant woman.

"Say for yourself what you were just trying to do." Granny Chen didn’t spell it out, "Without aiming at others, you’ve shot yourself in the foot, what a great talent you are."

"Mom, if it weren’t for your sudden urge to drink the water from the pot, would I have drunk it?" Baozi looked at his mother speechlessly, "Besides, Mom, I am your son, how can you side with outsiders over me?"

Granny Chen glared at him, a thirty-year-old man still having the nerve to engage in such petty calculations, not ashamed in the least.

"Brother Tie." Su Xiaofeng glanced at him and stood up, "So you mean, you wanted to drug my brother, then do something to him, or knock him down and try something on me?"

Baozi snorted coldly, "You and your brother are so full of yourselves; I simply can’t stand it and wanted to teach you a lesson, letting you both know that we are not to be trifled with."

Xiaofeng couldn’t help but laugh at his words, "Brother Tie, have you got it wrong? It’s you who want to bully us siblings, even if we did something to you later, it was just a normal counterattack. Or are you saying we should just obediently hand over the money and let you call the shots?"

It seemed their business had been going too smoothly until they met a tough nut like Ye Cheng.

"As long as you haven’t left the village and are still within the bounds of our village, I can naturally take care of you whenever I want." Baozi was indifferent; after all, this was Tiekou Village, and they were not free to act as they pleased on his turf.

"Rubbish." Granny Chen’s face turned livid with anger upon hearing this, what was this idiot thinking, did he fancy himself a feudal lord, "What nonsense are you spouting, this may be Tiekou Village, but it certainly doesn’t mean you can do whatever you want?"

This brat turned out this way probably because she didn’t bear to hit or scold him when he was a sickly child, nurturing such a reckless character.

"So what do you want to do?" Xiaofeng looked at him, "We won’t compete in strength, as even ten of you wouldn’t necessarily be a match for my brother."

Thinking of the aura that Ye Cheng had just radiated, Baozi dared not take it lightly, "Of course it’s not about strength; we’ll compete in something else. If you can beat me, I won’t just let you go, I’ll also acknowledge you as the boss." Just because the other side was physically strong didn’t mean they were good at everything else.

Ye Cheng chuckled, "So this is a talent show, where having strength isn’t enough; we must put on several more performances."

Xiaofeng, hearing what Ye Cheng said, glanced at the items on the table, casually picked up the sharp weapon from the table, and threw it backhand at Baozi.

Her martial arts might not be up to snuff, but she was absolutely adept at this. With nothing else to do after a heartbreak in her previous life, she had practiced endlessly, mastering the art of throwing darts.

Coming to this world, she had never had a chance to show off this skill and wondered if she might be out of practice. If she accidentally hurt someone, wouldn’t that be bad?

Fortunately, there was a doctor nearby, so she believed that if any mishap occurred, Ye Cheng could handle it.

Baozi, seeing the object coming at him with seemingly eyes of its own, panicked and quickly hugged his head and ducked to the ground.

The others also quickly scattered, fearful that the object might fly towards them.

Ye Cheng laughed at the skill Xiaofeng had just revealed.

Baozi had a habit of challenging Su Xiaofeng for no reason; now, with her patience exhausted, she had scared him with a single move.

Ye Cheng was impressed by Xiaofeng’s action of throwing the weapon, not expecting her to have such another skill.

The way she revealed it, her strength, her perspective, the angle—all were accurate to a tee, as good as any professional’s.

Baozi truly hadn’t expected Su Xiaofeng to be not only strong but also a master level practitioner.

A master indeed, an absolute master. Scrambling up from the ground, he immediately knelt before Su Xiaofeng and Ye Cheng, "Boss, I am your disciple from now on. Rest assured, whenever you pass through Tiekou Village in the future, I will definitely clear the way for you."

Xiaofeng chuckled, "Brother Tie, are you still keen on being a road bully, haven’t you had enough today?"

She had thought that after today’s episode, Tie Bao would certainly not dare to collect protection money with his gang anymore.

"I’ve had enough, I won’t be a road bully anymore," Tie Bao laughed, "It just so happens that people in our village have nothing to do and no source of income, naturally, evil ideas arise. Of course, if there were a lucrative project in our village, we would definitely become more law-abiding."

Xiaofeng, with her skill in throwing knives, made the other four behave.

Not only was she strong, but she was also a master level player. Who wouldn’t be afraid? If you really angered her and she threw something at you, what would you do?

"Asking me about that is useless, not like I have the money to invest in your business." Xiaofeng was truly baffled by Tie Bao’s way of thinking, which seemed to deviate from that of ordinary people.

A normal person at this point would likely just wish for them to leave and for there to be peace thereafter.

"Didn’t you just say, our village could open a restaurant? I’ve thought about it, and indeed we could. It’s just that we’ve never done it and have no experience. Could you give us some advice?"

Being a road bully could bring in money quickly, but it was also a quick way to get killed. If one day they really encountered someone who cared more about money than life, he would surely be done for.

"What kind of advice can I give you in the middle of the night?" Xiaofeng was reluctant to make casual suggestions, "How about this, my brother and I are making a trip to Provincial City. When we come back through here, if you still feel the same, I’ll talk to you about it."

As for the location, this village was definitely a great place for a farm stay. Drivers from all over had to pass through here, and there would surely be more and more cars over time, thus increasing the number of people passing through.

"Really, you’re not deceiving me?"

Xiaofeng: ——

At dawn, Xiaofeng and Ye Cheng set off.

Xiaofeng yawned, clearly having not rested well, and as soon as she got on the vehicle, she looked at Ye Cheng suspiciously, "Ye Cheng, I suddenly remember now, the water that Brother Tie drank had a sedative component; could it have been your doing?"

The laxative was Tie Bao’s own, and he would definitely know whether it contained a sedative component, but he obviously didn’t; Ye Cheng had been right beside him, and as a doctor, it wasn’t impossible for him to meddle.

Ye Cheng’s lips curled up slightly, "Listen to you, I am just a doctor, not some Poison Doctor from ancient times, going around poisoning people just to scare them."

Xiaofeng sneered, "Come off it, I knew it was you. You’re just a barefoot doctor to others, without even a proper Medical License."

Everyone practicing medicine is supposed to have a Medical License, after all.

"How do you know I don’t have one?" Ye Cheng retorted, "Besides, if I wanted such a thing, I could definitely get more than one."

But taking a few qualification exams was nothing special; who hasn’t done it before?
