Free Web NovelChapter 41: Chapter 41 Chen Hongying
Wang Hao’s tongue lightly touched Su Lin’s lower abdomen, and Su Lin felt her body soften, with an almost moaning sensation.
"Brother Hao..."
Su Lin called out softly, quickly reaching out with her pale hands to grab Wang Hao’s shoulders, her voice still trembling.
Upon hearing this, Wang Hao was excited, promptly stopping his actions and looking up at Su Lin to ask, "What’s wrong?"
"Be gentler, I’m afraid it’ll hurt!" Su Lin replied shyly. free𝑤ebnovel.com
"It’s okay, it will stop hurting soon." Wang Hao comforted.
Wang Hao bent down again and took Su Lin’s lower abdomen into his mouth.
This time, Wang Hao was clearly much more gentle, but Su Lin still felt a tearing pain, and she couldn’t help but moan.
However, Wang Hao did not stop and continued to suck out the poison with his mouth.
Wang Hao knew that time was of the essence, he had to extract the poison quickly.
Immediately, Wang Hao took a deep breath and sucked out the poisoned blood.
"Ah!"
Su Lin screamed, quickly closing her eyes.
"It’s okay now, there’s nothing to worry about. I’m going to dress the wound now!" Wang Hao hurriedly soothed Su Lin.
Upon hearing Wang Hao’s words, she finally opened her eyes.
Wang Hao was seen cleaning around her lower abdomen with gauze and alcohol, wiping and blowing gently.
At the same time, he did not forget to rub her stomach with his hands. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
"How can your skin be as tender as milk?"
Wang Hao said with a chuckle.
Upon hearing this, Su Lin’s cheeks turned even redder, but a sweet feeling surged at the bottom of her heart.
"Brother Hao, why are you still touching me?"
"This... I accidentally touched it. Hurry up and put on your pants; we have to go home."
Wang Hao replied with embarrassment, quickly changing the subject.
Su Lin immediately got up and dressed, with Wang Hao also packing up beside her.
Neither of them spoke, the scene resembling that of a television drama where a man and a woman have just had a field encounter.
After they had both packed up, they rose to descend the mountain.
When they returned to the village, it was already afternoon.
The villagers, seeing their disheveled appearance, couldn’t help but snicker.
Especially upon noticing the blood on their clothes, they speculated that the two must have failed to find the Lingzhi and were probably bitten by poisonous creatures or wild beasts.
In reality, they hadn’t particularly tidied themselves up after descending the mountain, deliberately presenting themselves in a ragged state to convince everyone that they had no gains.
"Haozi, I heard you found a hundred-year-old Lingzhi? Did you bring it back? Show everyone."
"Alas, it’s just bad luck. As soon as we went up the mountain, that bastard Li Guang came with his men to steal the Lingzhi, and then a swarm of poisonous creatures appeared. The Lingzhi was destroyed, we were injured, and we barely escaped with our lives." Wang Hao lamented intentionally.
"Right, did you also kill Li Guang’s dog?"
Another villager asked.
"I killed it. He set the dog on me, and I took care of it with one slash."
Wang Hao answered nonchalantly.
That statement was indeed the truth and not just a brush-off.
"You’re really something. I’ve heard that his dog is a foreign wolf hound, quite fierce!"
Wang Hao responded with a sheepish smile, surprised that killing a dog in the village had made him somewhat famous.
After bidding farewell to the villagers, he and Su Lin quickly returned to the Su family’s mountain goods shop.
"Dad, we’re back."
As soon as Su Lin entered, she called out for her father, perhaps a little scared from the recent experience.
Hearing her, Su Zhenping immediately rushed out and, seeing their ragged state, his heart sank.
"How is it? Are you hurt?"
Su Zhenping asked concernedly, while checking if Su Lin had sustained any injuries.
"Uncle Su, Lin Lin was accidentally bitten by a centipede just now. I have sucked out the poison for her, but you should quickly give her another injection of serum, just in case there’s residual poison in her body."
Wang Hao said as he set down the basket, speaking.
Su Zhenping hurriedly led Su Lin into the inner room and injected her with a dose of serum.
After settling Su Lin to rest, Su Zhenping came to the front hall.
He glared at Wang Hao and said, "How could you be so careless, letting Lin Lin get bitten by a centipede?"
Looking at Su Zhenping’s reproachful expression, Wang Hao realized Su Zhenping might be blaming him for Su Lin’s injury.
Wang Hao gave a wry smile, closed the door behind him, and then carefully took out the Lingzhi from a bag in the basket.
"We’ve found the Lingzhi mushroom!"
Wang Hao quickly shifted Su Zhenping’s attention to the Lingzhi mushroom.
"Really?"
Su Zhenping looked surprised, as he had just heard passing villagers talking about their failed return, and now Wang Hao appeared with a pleasant surprise.
Su Zhenping opened the bag, and a complete hundred-year-old Lingzhi mushroom was displayed before his eyes.
It was huge in size, golden in color, with full spores—a picture of perfection!
"You two did a great job! Well done!"
Su Zhenping slapped his thigh happily, unable to hold back his praise.
Wang Hao raised an eyebrow, finding it unexpected that the old man was so easily placated; he had just been in a bad mood, but now he was all smiles.
"Oh, I contacted a buyer for you early this morning, Chen Hongying—it’s the same person who bought the Lingzhi last time."
"She said she would come today to inspect the goods, I don’t know what time she’ll arrive; you should come over and meet her when she does."
Su Zhenping carefully examined the Lingzhi as he spoke.
"Okay, how about I just wait here for her?"
Wang Hao, afraid of missing her, simply decided to stay at Su’s mountain goods store and wait for the buyer’s arrival.
"That works too. How about you help me mind the store for a while? I’ve run out of antiserum at home; I need to go into town and get some more for Lin Lin’s injections tomorrow."
Su Zhenping said, nodding.
"Don’t worry, leave it to me."
Wang Hao assured him with a pat on his chest.
Seeing Wang Hao sitting down quietly, Su Zhenping dared to leave with ease.
Su Zhenping had barely left for long when a woman suddenly walked into the mountain goods store.
"Is Su Zhenping here?"
Wang Hao looked up to find that the person was an extraordinarily beautiful middle-aged woman with fair skin.
Her delicate face was like that of a porcelain doll, especially her peach blossom eyes, which were full of charm.
Her lips were thin, exuding extreme sensuality.
The sight of the woman prompted four words to pop into Wang Hao’s mind: aged but still charming!
By then, the middle-aged woman had already sashayed in.
She was wearing a red low-cut dress that outlined her figure perfectly.
The two large snow-white curves on her chest jiggled, rendering the black lace beneath somewhat visible.
"Hello, is Su Zhenping here?"
the middle-aged woman asked as she approached Wang Hao.
Wang Hao came back to his senses and gave her a once-over.
"Are you Chen Hongying? Aunt Chen?"
"Can’t you speak properly? What aunt? Do I look that old? Call me ’sister’!"
Chen Hongying glared at him as she spoke.
Wang Hao realized he had slipped up and quickly apologized.
"Sister Chen, sorry, sorry, I’m nearsighted. Please don’t take offense. Are you the buyer Uncle Su mentioned to me?"
"Yes, and who are you?"
Chen Hongying scanned Wang Hao as she asked.
"I’m Wang Hao. That Lingzhi you bought from Uncle Su last time was harvested by me; Uncle Su should have mentioned me to you."
Wang Hao introduced himself.
"So it’s you. Where is Su Zhenping? He promised me some good stuff today."
Chen Hongying inquired.
"Uncle Su just left for town to buy antiserum. Lin Lin was poisoned by a centipede, so she’s resting now, which is why he asked me to wait here for you."
Wang Hao explained patiently.
Chen Hongying nodded in understanding, not wasting any words, and got straight to the point, "Su Zhenping said you found a hundred-year-old Lingzhi mushroom. Is that true?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Hao immediately made a shushing gesture, telling her to keep her voice down.
He closed the door before whispering back, "It’s true! Only Uncle Su, Lin Lin, and I know about this; everyone in the village thinks the Lingzhi was destroyed by vermin. They want to steal it, so don’t say anything outside."
Chen Hongying nodded lightly to show she understood.
Seeing her response, Wang Hao then led her into the back room before taking out the bag containing the Lingzhi.
After carefully extracting the Lingzhi mushroom, Chen Hongying immediately widened her eyes.
She hastily took out a magnifying glass and studied it closely for a while, then said something Wang Hao never expected.
"I see, this isn’t a hundred-year-old Lingzhi mushroom at all..."
