Su Li asked the question in her heart, “The villagers have no grudges with them. Why did they poison them?”

No matter from which aspect, this did not make sense!

Ling Yiran laughed mockingly. “They just want me to lose my reputation and make my family think that I’m a piece of trash. He wants them to think that he is the one who can lead them to the peak!”

Everyone knew that he had opened a medical center here. However, when the villagers nearby fell sick, he was helpless. When that happens, his brother would then step forward, and in the end, the credit would belong to his brother while all the mockery came at him.

Everyone would think that he was incapable. Be it in the capital or in this mountain, he was useless and could not do anything well.

Su Li was speechless.

So they were just tools?

Ling Yiran looked at Su Li and asked again, “Madam Su, can you hand these people to me now?”

Su Li was naturally willing, but she wouldn’t hand him over so easily. She said, “Sure, but I have a small request.” “Tell me!”

“I’ve taken a fancy to a shop.”

A shop?

Was she planning to ask for a reward?

However, he was not the kind of person who was willing to owe others a favor. It was not impossible to give Su Li a shop.

Ling Yiran said generously, “If you like a shop, I can get someone to buy it for you.”

Su Li smiled and said, “There’s no need to buy it. I heard that the owner of the shop is surnamed Ling. It seems to be your business!”

Ling Yiran was speechless.

It turned out that she had already asked around and was waiting for him to come knocking on her door!

Seeing his expression, Su Li explained, “Don’t misunderstand. I just wanted to buy a shop. After asking around, I realized that your shop suits me the most.”

Be it the location or position, it was simply perfect. In the beginning, she was not sure if Ling Yiran would give up his love. After today’s incident, even if Ling Yiran was unwilling, he would have to be willing.

The corner of Ling Yiran’s mouth twitched uncontrollably. There was no way he would believe her!

“Alright, since you like it, I’ll give it to you.” Ling Yiran said.

Su Li’s eyes lit up as she said, “You don’t have to give it to me. Just sell it to me at a cheap price!”

She did not have much money in her pocket. According to the location of that shop, it was definitely not cheap. She did not want his things for nothing, but it was impossible for her to buy them at a high price!

Ling Yiran happily nodded in agreement. After all, he planned to give it to Su Li. Since she said that she would pay him, so be it. After all, no one would mind having more silver.

Su Li asked, “When can you give me that deed?”

The main reason was because she was afraid that the longer it was dragged, the more trouble would arise. Who knew if Ling Yiran would go back on his word after some time?

Ling Yiran thought for a moment and said, “I’ll go back and give some instructions later. I’ll get someone to send it to you tomorrow.”

In fact, the transferring of a deed had to be done with the government, but this small matter was not a problem for them at all. They could just send someone to settle it.

Su Li said considerately, “You should still have a lot of things in that shop, right? Why don’t I give you a month? After a month, I’ll go and take over the shop. This way, you can also clear the things.”

Ling Yiran thanked Su Li. “Alright, thank you!”

Hearing Ling Yiran’s thanks, Su Li covered her mouth and almost laughed out loud. He had sold the shop to her at a low price and even thanked her in the end. There was no one else like him!

Just like that, the two of them reached a friendly agreement.

Ling Yiran got someone to take those people away, and at the same time, dealt with the person who’s body had turned cold.

When Su Li saw them carry him out, she knew that Ling Yiran’s methods were not ordinary. He had only been in for a short while, but he had already dealt with someone!

However, looking at how the Ling family was scheming against each other, it would be strange if Ling Yiran could be simple!

However, this was not something she had to worry about. Now, she was in a good mood. After all, she was about to become a rich girl!

Ling Yiran got on the horse and said, “Madam Su, I’ll go back first.”

After Su Li and Ling Yiran parted ways, she hummed a tune and returned home.

When Li Mingyuan saw Ling Yiran’s departing figure, the jealousy in his heart reached its peak.

How did Su Li know such a person?

Unknowingly, he walked towards Su Li and even stood in front of her.

Su Li looked at the person in front of her and frowned. She asked, “What’s the matter?”

Li Mingyuan opened his mouth and asked, “Who was that person just now? You two seem to be quite familiar with each other!”

Su Li glanced at Li Mingyuan and said, “Why should I tell you?”

Li Mingyuan was speechless.

She wasn’t like this in the past. In the past, she wished she could tell him everything.

“I’m worried that you’ve been deceived. That person doesn’t look like a good person. He must be the best at lying to people like you. Don’t be deceived by him.”

Su Li only found it funny. She said, “You don’t have to worry!”

Li Mingyuan said, “If I’m not worried about you, who is?”

Su Li looked at his wishful thinking and couldn’t help but remind him, “You’re not in high demand. Not everyone will pounce on you. Moreover, I’m a married woman now. You’d better stay away from me.”

Li Mingyuan hurriedly explained, “I didn’t mean that. I’m just concerned about you.”

Su Li held her forehead helplessly. Was there a problem with Li Mingyuan’s comprehension ability, or did she not express it clearly? No matter what, he didn’t seem to understand.

At this moment, a pair of large hands wrapped around Su Li’s waist, and a familiar smell filled Su Li’s nose.

Su Li lowered her head and looked at the hand on her waist. She instantly felt uncomfortable.

What was wrong with this guy?

Su Li wanted to break free from his grip, but He Yufeng exerted more and more strength and tightly controlled her.

Su Li was speechless.

He Yufeng didn’t seem to notice Su Li’s discomfort and looked at her dotingly. “Wife, what are you guys talking about?”

Su Li looked up at him and said, “Why are you here?”

He Yufeng said, “I saw that you hadn’t gone back for so long and thought that something had happened, so I came out to take a look. I didn’t expect you to be chatting happily. Did I disturb you?”

Su Li looked up at He Yufeng’s fake smile and felt that his hypocritical appearance was really ugly.

Before Su Li could speak, Li Mingyuan said, “We’re just catching up. After all, we grew up together. Every time we meet, there will always be endless topics to talk about.”

Su Li felt inexplicably cold, as if the temperature around her had suddenly dropped.

He Yufeng put away the smile on his face. “I’ve always heard that there’s a powerful scholar in the nearby village. I think it’s you, right?”

Li Mingyuan raised his chin proudly. “It’s just an outsider praising me. I can’t afford it..
