Anchor with goods, the price of F2 is very reasonable, right?

Chapter 759 What are you spacing out for?

"Exactly. I've made arrangements these past few days, sending several capable men to secretly protect you. In the end, you're bound to clash with Shen Qiang's men; you need to be aware of that."

Wang Yang nodded solemnly: "Of course. I know very well that they will do everything they can to protect us before we find our destination. But once we enter Peach Blossom Spring, the situation will be hard to say."

Wang Chunfang knew that Wang Yang was a sensible person, so she said no more.

"And then there's Shen Qing, who should be unaware of the inside story. She knows nothing about what her father did, and she doesn't want her daughter to get too involved. If necessary, you can try to get her support."

“I understand. We’ll have Wang Yang use his charm, since Shen Qing is interested in him anyway.” Musk was interrupted by Wang Yang before he could finish speaking.

"Don't talk nonsense! You and she are a match made in heaven. Even if someone has to use their good looks, it should be you. If this gets back to Kobayashi, I'll teach you a lesson."

Wang Chunfang couldn't help but chuckle: "I know that Shen Qing has feelings for you. You might as well take advantage of it if necessary. It's not that I want you to be insincere, but Shen Qing is kind-hearted by nature and might stand on your side."

Wang Yang had already considered this issue. He believed Shen Qing was a reasonable person, but he was unwilling to exploit their relationship. He preferred to believe that when the truth came out, Shen Qing would stand on the side of justice.

"Don't worry, Auntie, I've got it. Please tell Xiaolin that I'm doing well here, but the date I promised to return may have to be postponed a bit."

"The journey ahead is arduous, and communication may be difficult at times. But you must return safely."

Wang Yang smiled and said, "Don't worry, Musk is skilled in martial arts, and I am knowledgeable in medicine. We two will not make any mistakes."

"That puts my mind at ease. However, Shen Qiang is a cunning man who is prone to using underhanded tricks. I wonder what other schemes he might pull behind the scenes."

"He will treat us well before we find the Peach Blossom Spring. Only after we find it should we be extremely vigilant."

Wang Chunfang sighed helplessly. In fact, she later regretted revealing Wang Yang's background—if he had stayed in Beicheng, it might have been a better choice; why did he have to get involved in this mess?

“Aunt, there’s no need to sigh. I know what you’re thinking, but since it’s my background, it’s my destiny. I’m going to find out the truth no matter what.”

"I know you're a thoughtful child. But please take good care of yourself; a large family in Beicheng is waiting for your safe return."

Wang Yang nodded in agreement and continued packing with Musk. The departure date was set for the day after tomorrow.

Wang Yang pondered that since Shen Qiang didn't intend to travel with them personally, he would definitely arrange for a trusted confidant to accompany him. It was absolutely impossible for him to only send Shen Qing along.

Shen Qing was completely unaware of the whole story, and even if she were to be told now, she might not necessarily side with Shen Qiang.

Shen Qiang understood this better than Wang Yang, so he would definitely arrange for another person, perhaps his own butler.

"Wang Yang, what are you spacing out for? You've been staring blankly for ages."

Wang Yang didn't come to his senses until Wang Chunfang called him.

"I'm guessing who Shen Qiang will send with us. Could it be his butler? But butlers usually have to be by his side at all times, right?"

"I don't know then. But it's unlikely that he would only let Shen Qing accompany you. You should keep an eye on that person on the way; he will definitely report your situation to Shen Qiang at any time."

Wang Yang smiled slightly: "Even so, it doesn't matter. Anyway, the sky is high and the road is far. As long as Shen Qiang doesn't come here in person, we still have room to maneuver."

Wang Chunfang, however, felt that Wang Yang was oversimplifying things. This trip would be anything but easy; Shen Qiang had likely already planted informants everywhere, and he had already retraced most of the route beforehand.

In short, it's best to be cautious in everything.

...On the morning of the departure day, Wang Yang only noticed a strange man sitting in the back seat when he got on the bus. Shen Qiang walked over and introduced him with a smile:

“This is one of my capable assistants, whom you haven’t met before. I sent him out on some business a while ago, and he just got back recently. He’s been with me for many years. If you need any help, you can ask him.”

The two nodded to each other, which was considered a greeting. It seemed that Wang Yang's guess was correct, but this person was not the butler; he had never seen him before.

"Wang Yang, there's a few things I need to say to you privately. Shen Qing is a girl after all, and there will inevitably be some inconveniences on the road. I hope you can take good care of her."

Wang Yang smiled and replied, "Uncle Shen, don't worry, Musk and I will take good care of her."

"That's good. I feel relieved with you here. You know medicine, so we're not afraid of anything. Do your best to find Musk's parents."

As Shen Qiang spoke, he patted Wang Yang's shoulder forcefully.

"I understand, Uncle Shen. Don't worry, we will do our best to find it."

"But if you really can't find it, you'll have to come back in three months at most."

Wang Yang nodded: "Okay."

Shen Qiang had deliberately arranged for Wang Yang and Shen Qing to sit together, but after more than ten minutes, neither of them had said a word. Seeing this, Wang Yang had no choice but to switch seats with Musk.

"Why did you sit here? My dad deliberately made me sit next to him, saying it was so we could get to know each other and get married when we get back."

When Shen Qing said this, there was a hint of despondency in his voice.

"why are you laughing?"

"I just find it quite interesting. Didn't you keep rejecting other men before, just waiting for your fiancé? Now that he's back, why don't you seem very enthusiastic?"

Shen Qing glared at Wang Yang, annoyed. She didn't believe Wang Yang couldn't see that the person she actually liked was him.

"Anyway, you insist on making me suffer along with you, just so I can develop feelings for him. Isn't that redundant? The engagement has already been arranged. Whether I have feelings for him or not, I have to get married."

Shen Qing spoke very loudly, and everyone in the car heard her. But no one dared to turn around and look at her—Musk felt embarrassed, and the others were all Shen Qiang's subordinates, who dared not listen to the young lady's private affairs.

"Don't be so loud, people will laugh at you. It's normal that you two don't have feelings for each other, after all, you've never met before. But now is a good opportunity to cultivate feelings."

Shen Qing looked at him with amusement: "According to you, if I spend every day with you, what if we develop feelings for each other on the road?"

"Don't joke around. It's Musk who's engaged to you, not me."

"What if your fiancé is you?"

Hearing this, alarm bells rang in Wang Yang's mind. He quickly thought: Had Shen Qiang already figured something out? Did he really know that I was the one engaged to Shen Qing?
That doesn't make sense. Logically, he shouldn't know. Even if he had some suspicions, he couldn't be so certain.

"What are you spacing out for? I was just asking casually." Wang Yang observed Shen Qing's expression and confirmed that she was indeed just joking.

"I'm a little worried about you. Don't say things like that, Musk won't be happy to hear it. Even though we're good brothers, would it be right for me to steal his fiancée?"

"Who told you to steal his fiancée? I was just saying."
