Chapter 158 Heavy Rain
Upon hearing the system's words, Qiao Suluo suddenly remembered that she could also help Yue Hanzheng awaken his special abilities.

"But can I trust Yue Hanzheng?"

In fact, Qiao Suluo didn't even know if she could trust Yue Hanzheng.

Helping someone awaken superpowers is still somewhat incredible in today's beast world.

If others find out, it will put her in danger.

She wasn't actually afraid of these things, but she didn't want to bring danger to the people around her.

The incident involving Qin Siyan serves as a cautionary tale.

She could trust Que Hongjin and the others because she had truly formed a bond with them, and she could genuinely feel their affection and protection for her.

But Yue Hanzheng and he didn't have much contact.

The system said, "Of course you can trust him. Yue Hanzheng is a man of impeccable character and is extremely upright."

"Even though his predecessor treated him that way, he never thought of harming his predecessor."

“Even though he hated you so much before, he only gave up on himself and said a few harsh words, but he never laid a hand on you.”

"Moreover, you know how he treated the people and his soldiers at the border, so he is very trustworthy."

"Host, you must trust my judgment."

Qiao Suluo's expression shifted; it was indeed so.

According to the memories of his predecessor, Yue Hanzheng had a very good reputation in the capital and was also well-liked among the people.

If Yue Hanzheng hadn't been injured, she would never have been his wife.

He is the heir of the Duke of Dingguo, a founding hero, and he is skilled in both literature and martial arts. There is no doubt that he will hold real power and inherit the family business in the future.

She was just a fake heiress.

Being forced to return to the countryside also damaged their reputation.

Logically speaking, someone like her would never have the chance to meet someone of Yue Hanzheng's caliber.

The predecessor was brain-dead, treating each of these people so horribly.

"Their predecessors were really mean to them."

The system said, "The original owner thought they were all useless trash, abandoned by their families, and completely worthless. She felt that the Shen family had humiliated her by kicking her out of the family and giving her these trash. She harbored resentment and hatred, and coupled with the poisoning, she would lose her temper with them uncontrollably."

"Fortunately, they are all better now, and they are grateful to you, needless to say."

"I think Yue Hanzheng is also truly grateful to you."

Qiao Suluo paused for a moment and then said, "Let me think about it some more."

She needs to think things through carefully before deciding whether or not to awaken Yue Hanzheng's special abilities.

"But does he have supernatural abilities?"

The system said, "That's for sure. These few males in the Beast World possess powerful luck and are closely connected to the entire Beast World. Their talents are definitely the strongest, without a doubt."

Qiao Suluo said, "In that case, we can help him awaken his supernatural power."

However, Qiao Suluo also needs to think this over carefully, as this matter is of utmost importance.

She didn't want to reveal her abilities at all.

……

For the next period of time, Qiao Suluo was busy with the restaurant business and also looked at the surrounding shops, hoping to buy a shop.

However, a slightly better location would cost over a hundred taels of silver.

Qiao Suluo has taken some time to look at many shops recently.

Finally, she saw a spacious, bright, and well-located two-story shop, but she was still a little reluctant to buy it for more than a hundred taels of silver.

Although Tu Shan Feishang handed over Nanfeng Tower to her before leaving, and gave her a token so that she could go to the bank to withdraw silver.

But those were money that Tu Shan Feishang had painstakingly saved up, and she didn't want to use them.

Most of the money she had came from dividends from the tofu workshop.

“If my wife wants to buy a shop, then buy it. I will go back to the sea tribe and bring back more underwater treasures to sell. We will then have a lot of silver.”

Bai Qianluo felt sorry for Qiao Suluo and wished she could return to the Sea Clan immediately to do these things. Chu Moyuan said, "I remember you were injured before and stripped of your Sea Clan's innate power. That was something the Sea Clan did. You still want to go back?"

“I can take on missions from the security escort agency.”

Running a caravan can earn you a lot of money.

A cold glint flashed across Bai Qianluo's cool eyes. He said calmly, "I was just tricked by my clansmen."

"With my current abilities, I will surely be able to get justice for myself when I go back."

He has now not only regained all the power of the sea creatures, but also possesses water-based abilities, making him even more adept at controlling seawater.

Moreover, among sea creatures, the stronger one's control over the seawater, the more popular they are.

After recent intensive training, Bai Qianluo's water-based superpower has reached level two.

"Boom..."

As they were talking, lightning suddenly flashed and thunder roared in the sky.

Qiao Suluo looked at the sky and said, "It's going to rain."

Summer weather is unpredictable; it can rain at any time.

Especially in the southern regions, there is an abundance of rainfall.

Bai Qianluo and Chu Moyuan quickly carried Da Bao and Er Bao, who were playing in the yard, into the house. They also brought in the clothes that were drying in the yard and covered and weighed down some haystacks with oil paper.

After everything was tidied up, a series of rumbling sounds rang out, lightning flashed across the sky, and soon raindrops began to fall in a pattering patter.

The sound of knocking on the windowpanes was loud.

The rain continued to fall heavily until midnight, showing no signs of stopping or decreasing.

Looking at the heavy rain, Qiao Suluo felt uneasy for some reason.

That night, Bai Qianluo was with Qiao Suluo.

He held Qiao Suluo in his arms and gently patted her back, saying, "Go to sleep first. Since it's raining, you don't need to go to the stalls to set up your business tomorrow morning. Get a good night's sleep."

Recently, Qiao Suluo gets up at the crack of dawn every day to prepare wonton fillings and goes to her stall early in the morning.

Bai Qianlu felt sorry for her, but she couldn't persuade her.

The same was true for Qiao Suluo during the period when Que Hongjin had just left.

He knew she just wanted to keep herself busy so she wouldn't overthink things.

Qiao Suluo fell asleep in Bai Qianluo's arms, comforted by his voice.

But in her sleep, Qiao Suluo had a dream.

She dreamt that the torrential rain lasted for several days without stopping, which then caused a flood that washed away the surrounding houses, and many orcs who could not swim died in the flood.

Some orcs who, as was their custom, hid in the mountains also encountered mudslides and died on the mountains.

This torrential rain came with tremendous force, more ferocious than any previous flood, and crucially, the river embankment breached...

The only orcs who survived in their county were those who could swim, but because there was no food, many of these swimming orcs died on the surface of the water.

There were also cat-like orcs who hid in the stone caves on the hillside, but the water was raging, mudslides and landslides tore through the rocks, and countless cat-like orcs died on the mountain.

And her parents and brothers.

"no, do not want!"

Qiao Suluo exclaimed and woke up abruptly.

Upon hearing the sound, Bai Qianluo quickly got up, flicked her fingers, and lit the candle beside the bed, instantly illuminating the room.

"Did the wife have a nightmare?"

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Bai Qianluo gently pulled Qiao Suluo into her arms and patted her back softly to soothe her emotions.

Qiao Suluo had not fully woken up from the dream; she was still somewhat shaken.

 Sorry, I was too busy the past couple of days. I also had a stomachache from drinking milk. I tried drinking a lot of milk, but it didn't help. Some ads say it breaks down lactose and makes it easier to absorb, but that didn't work for me either. I'm afraid to drink milk anymore. I'll update more frequently from now on.
