Chapter 29 - 29 29 Help Me Pay
29: Chapter 29 Help Me Pay 29: Chapter 29 Help Me Pay Ye Chenfeng could hardly suppress the excitement in his heart as he squatted down to pick up a Yun Teng Mushroom for a closer look.
The mushrooms on the stall were the size of a palm and consisted of both black and white colors.
Its alternating black and white patterns resembled a Yin-Yang face, no wonder the middle-aged man just now had suspected it to be a toxic species.
With such strange colors and being a species they had never seen before, it was inevitable they would associate Yun Teng Mushrooms with the word “poison.”
With great interest, Ye Chenfeng carefully examined all five Yun Teng Mushrooms without any haste to buy them, and instead, he asked, “Where did your dad find these mushrooms?”
If he could pinpoint the exact location where the Yun Teng Mushrooms grew, Ye Chenfeng wouldn’t mind making the trip personally.
If he could obtain a large batch of Yun Teng Mushrooms, then his speed in increasing his strength would be significantly accelerated, which was an immense temptation for him.
The honest stall owner looked at Ye Chenfeng and said, “A month ago, my family urgently needed money.
But we are people living in a mountain village, usually relying on farming and hunting to make ends meet.
Later, my dad said he was going to try his luck in the Primeval Forest at the border, to see if he could hunt one or two wild beasts.
Eventually, he found these mushrooms in a gorge of the Primeval Forest, and there was even a big python next to it!
Soon after he left the Primeval Forest, he fell ill, and no specific cause could be found, so I wanted to gather more money to take him to a better hospital.”
The customers around them scoffed at the stall owner’s words, and the middle-aged man who had spoken earlier advised, “Young man, don’t be deceived.
Not every country folk is simple and honest these days; some are even more cunning than us city folks!”
Ye Chenfeng knew the middle-aged man was kindly reminding him, but he was sure that these were indeed Yun Teng Mushrooms, and he was determined to acquire all five today.
If he had the chance, he still wanted to visit the Primeval Forest at the border to see if he could find the gorge the stall owner had talked about.
“Thank you for your warning,” said Ye Chenfeng, who was not one to overlook kindness.
Turning back to the stall owner, he continued, “I’ll take all five of these mushrooms.”
Upon hearing this, the honest stall owner’s face flushed with excitement, and he said gratefully to Ye Chenfeng, “Thank you, thank you, now I can take my dad to a better hospital.”
“Young man, do you recognize this type of mushroom?
Aren’t you just throwing money into the Huangpu River?
What value could these mushrooms have?
They might even contain deadly poisons!” The middle-aged man was somewhat annoyed that Ye Chenfeng was not heeding his advice.
The honest stall owner cautiously observed Ye Chenfeng and the middle-aged man.
To be honest, he did not know the usefulness of these mushrooms.
His father’s illness could not be delayed, and in the absence of other options, he took the unidentified mushrooms on a five-day long bus ride to try his luck in Tianhai, the big city.
If he couldn’t sell even one, not to mention raising money for his father’s treatment, he had to hand over all the money he had just to secure a stall for five days.
And seeing that tomorrow was the last day, he didn’t have a penny left and had even gone three days without food.
Of course, Ye Chenfeng had no need to explain the use of Yun Teng Mushrooms to the middle-aged man, and casually said, “I just want to study this new species.
I’m very curious about such novelties.”
“Alright, please pack up these five mushrooms for me,” Ye Chenfeng told the honest stall owner.
The honest stall owner, upon hearing Ye Chenfeng’s request, hastily took out a bag and carefully placed the five Yun Teng Mushrooms inside it.
Seeing that Ye Chenfeng had made his stance clear, the middle-aged man didn’t say anything more, knowing that it was Ye Chenfeng’s own money being spent.
It was only at this moment that Ye Chenfeng suddenly remembered he only had five hundred yuan in cash left on him, and his bank account was almost empty too.
The three million he had taken from Yunhu Group last time was still under the bed in the villa!
Going back to get the money now would be very inconvenient.
Just then, Zhao Wanting, who had been following him, spoke up again, “Sir, please come to my house and take a look at my father’s illness.
Whatever your demands may be, as long as I can fulfill them, I will satisfy you.”
Ye Chenfeng turned to look at Zhao Wanting, examining her up and down with care.
Her curvaceous figure was something any man would take a second glance at.
Zhao Wanting felt Ye Chenfeng’s scrutinizing gaze and, remembering the ambiguous meaning of her own words a moment ago, couldn’t help but blush, thinking to herself, “As long as he can save my father, any sacrifice I make is worth it.”
“What are you looking at?
Keep staring and I’ll gouge out your eyeballs and feed them to the dogs,” Wan Kai, Zhao Wanting’s fiancé, said extremely displeased.
He too had seen the way Ye Chenfeng looked at Zhao Wanting and believed that Ye Chenfeng had designs on her.
“This guy’s thoughts are really filthy,” Ye Chenfeng couldn’t help but think to himself, a playful smile forming on his lips.
He reached out and pulled Zhao Wanting into his arms, feeling the softness of her waist with his palm, and asked with a smile, “So is it really any demand I make?”
“You, you let go of Wanting right now, or you’ll regret it.” With his fiancée embraced by a strange man in public, Wan Kai felt as if a massive green hat had been placed upon his head.
He was livid, for, despite being Zhao Wanting’s fiancé, he hadn’t even held her hand yet!
Zhao Wanting had always been cold towards him.
Ye Chenfeng ignored Wan Kai, while Zhao Wanting’s face turned red, her heart fluttering wildly.
The masculine scent of Ye Chenfeng was disorienting her, and she kept telling herself, “I’m doing this to save my father, that’s all that matters.”
Ye Chenfeng’s hand gently stroked Zhao Wanting’s delicate skin, and he said, “Help me pay.”
Ye Chenfeng originally hadn’t had any improper thoughts about Zhao Wanting.
He wasn’t the kind of man whose legs turned to jelly at the sight of a beautiful woman; otherwise, he would have agreed to Zhao Wanting’s request earlier.
At this moment, he was simply too lazy to go back to his villa to get money, so he asked Zhao Wanting to pay.
He considered it a medical fee for treating her father.
After all, he didn’t have anything to do, and it wouldn’t hurt to check on what illness Zhao Wanting’s father had.
“Ah?” Zhao Wanting exclaimed, and after a moment asked in confusion, “You want me to help you pay?”
“Do you not wish to?
If not, I can handle it myself,” Ye Chenfeng released Zhao Wanting as he spoke.
“Willing, of course, I’m willing, does that mean you agree to see my father’s illness?” Zhao Wanting asked joyfully.
Standing to the side, Wan Kai’s eyes grew dark as he stared at Ye Chenfeng, his irritation reaching its peak, angrily thinking, “Playing the pure and virtuous woman in front of me?
Not resisting when embraced and hugged by a strange man?
What a bitch, one day I will screw you to death on the bed.”
With these extremely dirty thoughts in his mind, Wan Kai’s eyes repeatedly swept over Zhao Wanting’s chest and buttocks.
What do you think?
