Reborn at 80: From Village Scoundrel to Billionaire

The moment those words were spoken, the air in the courtyard seemed to freeze.

All three of them turned their attention to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei felt a chill run down his spine as he carried the pheasant, wild duck, and three catties of fox meat.

If he chooses Zhao Chunyan, Lin Wanqiu and Su Yuehe's glares would surely tear him apart.

Choose Lin Wanqiu. Zhao Chunyan's words are deadly, and Su Yuehe is probably crying in her bed.

But if Su Yuehe is chosen, the other two will not give up easily.

Three women make a drama, but this isn't a drama; it's clearly a death sentence for him.

If he dares to step into anyone's room tonight, he'll probably be nothing but bones by tomorrow morning.

Just as Liu Bei stood frozen in place, unsure of what to do, Zhao Chunyan suddenly yawned.

"Men, you need to know how to cherish yourselves. Don't just jump into every woman's arms. Be careful not to mess around and get all sorts of diseases, then the three of us will have to take care of you."

After saying that, she turned around, pushed open the door, and went inside.

Liu Bei: "..."

I only married the three of you, didn't I?

Where did things go wrong?

Still getting sick?

Are you cursing me?

This woman really doesn't know how to talk!

Upon hearing this, Su Yuehe's cheeks flushed crimson, and she stammered, "I...I went back to my room too..."

After saying that, she fled into her house like a startled rabbit and slammed the door shut.

For a moment, only Lin Wanqiu and Liu Bei remained in the courtyard.

Lin Wanqiu glanced at Zhao Chunyan's closed door, then turned around to go into the room.

"Late Autumn, wait a minute." At this moment, Liu Bei finally spoke.

"Um?"

Zhao Chunyan, who had just entered the room, stopped abruptly upon hearing Liu Bei's voice.

His eyebrows furrowed tightly. Judging from the situation, it seemed that Liu Bei, that scoundrel, was going to sleep with Lin Wanqiu tonight.

hateful!

Isn't this guy afraid of developing a host of illnesses?

Zhao Chunyan gritted her teeth, stomped her toes on the ground twice, then pressed her ear to the door and held her breath to listen.

At the same time, in the next room.

Su Yuehe leaned against the door, cupping her burning cheeks in her hands.

Upon hearing Liu Bei calling Lin Wanqiu's name in the courtyard, she suddenly stiffened.

Tonight...they're not going to...do that again, are they?

If that's true, then... then I'm going to have insomnia again tonight?

What should I do?

Su Yuehe was anxious for a while, and finally pressed her ear to the door to find out what Liu Bei and Lin Wanqiu were going to do tonight.

Right now, in the courtyard.

Lin Wanqiu stopped after hearing Liu Bei call her name.

His chest heaved violently at that moment, and he was overjoyed.

He called his own name.

It seems that in his heart, he considers himself the most important one!

After a few seconds of excitement, Lin Wanqiu suppressed the inexplicable flutter in her heart, slowly turned around, and calmly looked at Liu Bei: "What?"

Liu Bei placed the pheasant, wild duck, and the piece of fox meat on the stone slab in the corner, dusted off his hands, and walked towards Lin Wanqiu.

step.

Two steps.

As Liu Bei's figure grew larger in her line of sight, Lin Wanqiu's breathing became erratic.

He seems a little different tonight.

Is he going to pick me up?

The more Lin Wanqiu thought about it, the faster her heart beat.

Just as she was lost in thought, Liu Bei came up to her and grabbed her right hand.

Feeling the warmth emanating from Liu Bei's large palm, a hint of anticipation flashed in Lin Wanqiu's eyes.

The next moment, Liu Bei took out a wad of ten-yuan bills from his inner pocket and stuffed them into Lin Wanqiu's palm, then gently patted the back of her hand twice with his fingers.

"Late Autumn. This 240 yuan is the money we split, and I'm handing it over to you now."

"Um?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Wanqiu was immediately stunned.

"It's late." Liu Bei released his grip and took a half step back. "You have to go collect grasshoppers early tomorrow morning, so you should get some rest too."

After saying that, he strode towards his room.

"Squeak."

He opened the door and then quickly closed it again.

"Hoo hoo~"

At this moment, a gentle evening breeze blows by.

Lin Wanqiu stood there, clutching the thick stack of banknotes tightly in her hand, completely stunned.

She had thought he would pick her up and they would go to the Wushan Night Rain together.

I didn't expect her to be overthinking it.

He didn't mean it that way at all.

I just wanted to give her the money I earned.

A wave of indescribable shyness and embarrassment washed over her, and her cheeks instantly burned.

"So... he can still withstand the test." Lin Wanqiu murmured softly, then turned and went into the house.

Meanwhile, in Zhao Chunyan's room.

Hearing the commotion outside, Zhao Chunyan breathed a long sigh of relief and patted her chest:

"After all that fuss, it turns out that guy just paid money."

"Just pay up, don't make such a fuss. I was worried for nothing."

"This guy has so many tricks up his sleeve!"

"Thank goodness this guy isn't sleeping with Lin Wanqiu. Tonight, I can finally get a good night's sleep!"

……

At the same time, in Su Yuehe's room.

After hearing that Liu Bei was only paying money and didn't intend to spend the night with Lin Wanqiu, Su Yuehe stopped listening.

But at this moment, a strange sense of loss welled up in her heart.

"What's wrong with me? Why do I feel so empty inside?"

"Could it be because he can't hear him and Sister Wanqiu doing *that* next door...?"

"Ptooey! Ptooey! Ptooey!"

"Su Yuehe, what nonsense are you thinking about?"

Su Yuehe's face burned even hotter at this moment, as if she had a fever.

At this moment, Liu Bei leaned against the door and exhaled a heavy breath.

When he held Lin Wanqiu's hand just now, the expectant look in her eyes was so obvious.

If he couldn't resist even slightly, he would carry Lin Wanqiu into her room and commit a mistake.

Once a mistake is made,

Su Yuehe is alright; she's naturally gentle and mild-mannered. She'll be sullen for a few days, but she'll be fine after a while.

But Zhao Chunyan next door is different.

With her fiery temper, if she knew that she was having an affair with Lin Wanqiu tonight, hehe... she would definitely take a kitchen knife and chop him up.

"Sigh! It's so hard to be a good man."

Just as Liu Bei was lost in thought, Lin Wanqiu's voice came in again:

"Liu Bei, you've had a long day, get some rest. Tomorrow, remember to prepare the fields for sowing and transplanting rice seedlings."

"I understand," Liu Bei replied.

"This guy... he really only agreed to do the land preparation." Lin Wanqiu was a little disappointed after hearing Liu Bei's response.

She turned and glanced at the pheasants and ducks under the wall, as well as three pounds of fox meat, then slowly walked over, picked them up, and headed towards the kitchen.

"You rest, I'll pluck the chicken feathers. Oh, right, and the duck feathers too. And you know what, the duck feathers are much denser than the chicken feathers..."
