16: Chapter 16 The Golden Sands Gang
Xiao Yuchen did not probe further, looking at Li Yiran, he asked: "Yiran, do you know if your Li Family has any business dealing in Chinese herbal medicine?"
"Chinese herbal medicine? No, why do you ask?" Li Yiran was confused, not knowing what Xiao Yuchen meant by this.
"It's nothing. Although I cannot mass-produce the youth-preserving pill, I can mass-produce the beauty pill. The beauty pill has excellent whitening and skin-rejuvenating effects, though it lacks the longevity-extending effect." Xiao Yuchen said truthfully.
"Really? Is this beauty pill really that powerful?" Li Yiran instantly became interested.
"Of course it's true. You have already seen the magic of the Medicinal Pill; it is a hundred times stronger than the cosmetics on the market. If your Shengshi Beauty sells the beauty pill, it will definitely make the company famous, and there is no competition, so you can earn much more."
"Are you willing to help Shengshi Beauty refine the beauty pill?"
Li Yiran's breathing became a bit rapid. Although Xiao Yuchen was her boyfriend, she would absolutely not force Xiao Yuchen to do things for her for the sake of profit.
"Of course. I thought of this plan when I went to Shengshi Beauty before, but there were too many people around at that time, so it was not convenient to say it in public." Xiao Yuchen explained.
"Yuchen, you are so handsome, I love you to death." Saying this, Li Yiran excitedly kissed Xiao Yuchen on the cheek.
"You... you are taking advantage of me. That was my first kiss, no, I have to kiss you back." Xiao Yuchen feigned being at a disadvantage; how could he let the girl take the initiative in such matters?
"Hey, brother, it's one thing for you, a grown man, to steal a woman's lines, but more importantly, can't you two consider my feelings? Can't you restrain yourselves?" Xiao Yuxin complained.
"Hahaha..."
The three of them looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh.
Just then, Li Yiran's phone rang. It was her father calling. Li Yiran made a hush gesture to the two of them and pressed the answer button.
"Xiaoran, I have handled the transfer for Yuchen's sister. You can have her report to Jiangcheng No. 1 High School directly tomorrow."
"Really? Thank you, Dad. I will tell them right now."
After speaking, Li Yiran hung up the phone.
"How is it? I said this matter could be settled quickly, right? Starting tomorrow, Yuxin will be our schoolmate. With two beauties from the school accompanying you, aren't you going to be on cloud nine?" Li Yiran looked at Xiao Yuchen with a smile.
"On cloud nine? You really think this is a good thing? I've already become the public enemy of the whole school just by being with you. If you add Yuxin to the mix, they will definitely devour me."
Although Xiao Yuchen said this, he was very willing to have his sister by his side; this way, he could protect both women at the same time.
"Hehe, you deserve it. We are even prettier now, so those boys might go even crazier." Li Yiran showed a gloating expression.
"By the way, if you are free this afternoon, accompany me to look for a house. The lease here is about to expire, and I want to buy a house near the school to settle things once and for all."
Xiao Yuchen did not mention the landlord. Being fancied by such an old woman was really nothing to brag about.
"Why do you want to buy a house? My family has many houses, I can just give you one. You gave me such a valuable gift, I have to return the favor, right?" Li Yiran asked back.
"This... that's not good, right? Actually, I still have some money on hand."
"What is not good about it? Is it necessary to calculate so clearly between us? What is yours is mine, and what is mine is also mine, right?"
"Uh... right, right."
Xiao Yuchen was speechless. Just a moment ago he felt embarrassed, but now he felt as if he had been sold.
"That's settled then. I will give you a villa in Lishui Garden. It is very close to Jiangcheng No. 1 High School and not far from Yushui Villa where I live."
Since the matter was decided, Xiao Yuchen did not hesitate. The three of them packed their things and checked out. The landlady, Sister Hu, wanted to deliberately find fault and not refund the deposit.
But when she saw Xiao Yuchen's sharp gaze, she compromised. Because Xiao Yuchen had been living alone and didn't have many things, he moved out very quickly.
Looking at this villa of over a thousand square meters, Xiao Yuchen also sighed. From this moment on, his fate was to be in his own hands.
...
At the school gate of Jiangcheng No. 2 High School, seven or eight thugs were standing at the school gate holding a photo, wandering around. Whenever students returned to school, they would carefully compare them.
These people were from the Golden Sand Gang. They had received a commission from Jiang Shan to come here to catch Xiao Yuxin, but what they didn't know was that Xiao Yuxin had already transferred schools.
Until nightfall, the school gate closed, and the Golden Sand Gang did not wait for Xiao Yuxin. They had no choice but to report this situation to their employer, Jiang Shan.
Jiang Family
"Father, how did it go? Did you catch that woman?" Jiang Mingcong was obviously a bit anxious.
"No." Jiang Shan shook his head. "I don't know why, but Xiao Yuxin didn't go to school at all. I thought the Golden Sand Gang people had missed Xiao Yuxin, but later I asked them to go to the classroom to look, and the person hadn't returned at all."
"Could it be that they thought we would retaliate and ran away early?" Jiang Mingcong thought of this possibility.
"I don't know. Tomorrow I will send the Golden Sand Gang to Jiangcheng No. 1 High School to find her. I don't believe they could have dropped out of school."
...
After Cultivating for a night, the next morning, Xiao Yuchen drove with Xiao Yuxin to Yushui Villa to pick up Li Yiran, and then they went to school together.
When they arrived at a place a hundred meters near the school, seven or eight thugs from the Golden Sand Gang were checking passing students. Because they didn't find the person yesterday, they checked even more strictly this time; even those passing by in cars had to be screened.
At first, many people were dissatisfied, but when they learned that the other party was from the Golden Sand Gang, they all shut their mouths and waited to be screened.
"What's going on ahead? Why is there a traffic jam?" Xiao Yuchen was a bit confused.
"I don't know. I've never encountered such a situation. Could it be an accident?" Li Yiran guessed.
"It doesn't look like it. You guys wait in the car, I'll go down and take a look."
Xiao Yuchen said, then got out of the car to check. As a Cultivator, he also had Divine Sense, but the distance was relatively short. Soon, he learned the general situation from passersby.
"Golden Sand Gang? Is there such a Gang in Jiangcheng? I wonder who they are looking for?"
Filled with curiosity, Xiao Yuchen walked forward quickly. When he saw the photo in the hands of the thugs, he was stunned, because it was his photo.
"They are actually looking for me? I don't seem to have offended them, could it be the help found by the Jiang Family?"
Xiao Yuchen hadn't offended anyone recently, except for Jiang Mingcong, so this answer was not hard to guess.
"Hehe, Jiang Mingcong, I knew you wouldn't let it rest so easily. Since that's the case, then go to hell."
Saying this, Xiao Yuchen cast a spell, and Jiang Mingcong, who was tens of miles away, suddenly began to convulse, frothing at the mouth, and finally turned into ashes.
Initially, Xiao Yuchen had left a trace of Spiritual Qi in Jiang Mingcong's wine. This trace of Spiritual Qi was like a bomb. If Xiao Yuchen did not activate it, Jiang Mingcong would only suffer some torment, and after a while, he would be fine.
However, this Jiang Mingcong was ungrateful and came to trouble him, so Xiao Yuchen naturally would not show mercy. After dealing with Jiang Mingcong, Xiao Yuchen returned to the car.
"How was it? What happened in front?" Li Yiran asked.
"It's the Golden Sand Gang looking for me. If I'm not mistaken, it should be the people Jiang Mingcong found."
