Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 1027: Chapter 1028: A Girl’s Thoughts

Under Lin Chen’s intimidation, the meeting went very smoothly. Several big shots were all meekly agreeing, claiming they would definitely support Ye Zi as the president of the Yamamoto Corporation.

However, Lin Chen naturally didn’t believe their words.

These big shots all held significant power in their hands; how could they submit so easily?

But Lin Chen wasn’t in a hurry. His goal now was to intimidate them, stabilize the situation, and then, when the time was ripe, take them down one by one. Lin Chen wouldn’t leave any menaces for himself or Ye Zi.

Just as the meeting was wrapping up, Lin Chen’s phone rang.

The call was from Jia Xiaoqing: ”Hey, Lin Chen, haven’t you dealt with those old foxes yet? Didn’t you say you were taking me into the mountains to gather herbs? When are we heading out?”

Lin Chen chuckled: ”Get ready. Once I get back, we’ll head out.”

The cold poison in Jia Xiaoqing’s body couldn’t be treated with just medicinal baths; it required several herbs to act as guides.

Last time, Ling Zi was bitten by a seven-starred snake, which turned out to be a crucial guide for treating cold poison.

However, such seven-starred snakes are very rare and usually remain dormant in caves, only coming out to hunt during the transition between summer and autumn.

”Brother Chen, where are you and Sister Xiaoqing going?” Ye Zi asked as they got in the car.

”Well, I’m taking Xiaoqing to the mountains to catch snakes,” Lin Chen replied.

”I want to go too.” Ye Zi said eagerly.

”No, you’ve just become the president of Yamamoto Corporation, and there’s a lot of business you need to familiarize yourself with. I can’t spend too much time with you; you have to develop the ability to handle things on your own as quickly as possible.” Lin Chen directly refused.

Upon hearing Lin Chen’s words, Ye Zi pouted: ”Stinky brother, you just won’t take me because Sister Xiaoqing is more endowed than me. One day, I’ll grow up too.”

Lin Chen was speechless for a moment, wondering what on earth she meant.

He wanted to explain, but Ye Zi was already pouting and ignoring him.

When the car arrived at the villa entrance, Lin Chen saw Jia Xiaoqing waiting with a large backpack.

”Wow, big sis, where are you going with all that stuff? On a trip?” Lin Chen asked in confusion.

”We’re going into the mountains, and there are no supermarkets there. Of course, we have to bring a lot of food,” Jia Xiaoqing said in a very professional tone.

She often participated in such outdoor adventure activities and was quite experienced.

Looking at the large bag behind her, Lin Chen had a helpless expression: ”Miss, we’re going to catch snakes in the mountains, not for fun. Isn’t carrying all this exhausting?”

”Hmph, of course not, because you’re the one carrying the bag for me,” Jia Xiaoqing said smugly.

With that, Jia Xiaoqing tossed the backpack to Lin Chen.

”Hey, I’m here to cure you, not to be your servant,” Lin Chen said, holding the heavy bag in frustration.

”Can you, a grown man, bear to let a little woman like me carry something so heavy?” Jia Xiaoqing looked at Lin Chen pitifully.

Lin Chen thought for a moment: ”Carrying it is possible, but it will cost an extra two hundred yuan in labor fees.”

”Sure, no problem,” Jia Xiaoqing agreed readily.

”Damn, I asked for too little,” Lin Chen felt frustrated, realizing he should’ve asked for a thousand, considering Jia Xiaoqing was the famous president of the Sakura Society and wealthy.

Not far away, Ye Zi looked on with a face full of resentment at the flirting pair, her heart filled with jealousy.

”Hmph, so what if she’s a bit more endowed than me? When I mature, I’ll definitely be bigger than her.”

Meanwhile, beside Ye Zi, Ling Zi was also having complex emotions. The scene of Lin Chen treating her and drawing out the venom yesterday kept replaying in her mind, impossible to forget.

”What’s happening to me? This guy’s so annoying, so despicable, yet I keep thinking about him. No, I have to confront him and end this once and for all.” With those thoughts, Ling Zi walked over.

”Lin Chen, come here for a moment; I have something to say to you,” Ling Zi said coldly to Lin Chen.

Seeing the dark circles under Ling Zi’s eyes, Lin Chen immediately knew she hadn’t slept well all night.

But thinking about the ambiguous situation from the night before, Lin Chen’s heart also raced a little. That lingering fragrance still lingered at the tip of his nose, sparking his imagination.

Seeing Ling Zi’s dark circles, Lin Chen inexplicably felt a pang of sympathy and couldn’t help but stretch out his hand.

”What are you doing?” Ling Zi dodged hurriedly.

”Don’t move; let me massage your eye circles a bit.” Saying that, Lin Chen’s right hand swiftly moved to Ling Zi’s eye area and gently pressed down.

Initially, Ling Zi wanted to push Lin Chen’s hand away, but she suddenly felt an indescribable comfort around her eyes.

It was as if a spring flowed through her mind, instantly lifting her spirits.

Lin Chen’s fingers massaged her eyes for a little while before he let go.

Ling Zi’s face was smooth and supple, and Lin Chen’s hand on it brought him a sense of satisfaction.

”Okay, take a look at yourself. The dark circles are gone,” Lin Chen said with a faint smile.

Ling Zi took out her phone, checked her reflection, and was stunned.

The dark circles had really disappeared.

In the morning, she had applied a lot of makeup to conceal her dark circles, but it hadn’t worked at all.

”How is my technique, pretty impressive, right?” Lin Chen said proudly.

It was only then that Ling Zi remembered her purpose was to have a final talk, not to let Lin Chen take advantage of her.

”Lin Chen, I wanted to tell you about yesterday’s incident...”

”Yesterday’s incident, I’m the doctor, you’re the patient. I was just treating you,” Lin Chen interrupted before Ling Zi could finish.

For some reason, even though those were the words Ling Zi wanted to say, hearing them from Lin Chen left her feeling somewhat disappointed.

”But since I took advantage of you, I’ll take responsibility. Rest assured, I’ll treat you as my own woman,” Lin Chen said before leaving the dazed Ling Zi behind and turning to Jia Xiaoqing.

”Y-you bastard, who wants to be your woman?” Ling Zi stammered after a long pause before recovering.

Yet, for some reason, she felt very happy hearing what Lin Chen said afterward.

”What’s happening to me!” Ling Zi couldn’t help but stomp her foot.

Watching his receding figure, Ling Zi felt her heart in chaos. She had intended to end things, but now she felt even more confused.

Lin Chen and Jia Xiaoqing arrived at the wild mountains where Ling Zi had been before, climbing up the trail.

To Lin Chen’s surprise, although Jia Xiaoqing was poisoned by the cold, she was quite agile and managed to keep up with his pace.

”It should be around here,” Lin Chen pointed to a small grove.

”How do you know it’s here?” Jia Xiaoqing asked with a puzzled look.

Lin Chen looked at the ground, then pointed at the surrounding tree trunks, ”This should be the place where Ling Zi practiced. You can see the footprints left by her training on the ground, and the sword marks on the tree trunks are from her sword practice.”

After scanning the area, Lin Chen quickly focused his gaze on a sanitary pad with red blood on it in the bushes.
