The Beauties Help Me Become the No.1 Official-Chapter 1217

Chapter 1217: Chapter 1217
Coming out of Xiao Cui’s room, Li Guixiang pulled Boss Liu back to their own house.
"I feel like our daughter has taken a liking to Lin Yifan, what do you think we should do?"
"What... she’s taken a liking to Lin Yifan? You must be mistaken!"
Boss Liu stared wide-eyed.
"I don’t think I’m wrong. You know, today Lin Yifan was looking at our daughter left and right, and the two of them were chatting in there, who knows about what. Xiao Cui seemed quite stable emotionally; she even mentioned breaking up with Daqing. This obviously means someone is on her mind, plus she talked about studying for another year to attend nursing school. If it’s not Lin Yifan, then who is it?"
Today, Boss Liu felt utterly humiliated in front of Lin Yifan.
Li Guixiang worried that her daughter’s feelings might upset Boss Liu even more.
"That’s a good thing! At least Lin Yifan is a hundred times better than Daqing. I’ve heard that the car he drives is worth hundreds of thousands; the kid has skills! If they end up together, isn’t that great?"
Boss Liu pondered for a moment and then slapped his thigh.
He had already prepared for the worst, so he didn’t break Daqing’s leg today.
"But the village is abuzz with rumors about him being with Xu Fengxian, and unclear relations with that volunteer teacher. He’s supposed to be a womanizer, can that work?"
The village rumors were aplenty, and Li Guixiang had heard them quite a lot.
Especially today, as Xu Fengxian came with Lin Yifan, confirming their peculiar relationship.
"You’re too shallow-minded. So what if it’s Xu Fengxian? After all, she’s just a widow, could she compare to our daughter? Their relationship is just mutual attraction. Teacher Shen is a city person; why would she stay here? As long as our daughter makes the first move, he won’t be able to escape. A little flirtation isn’t a problem, Lao Liu is another hopeless case who thinks too much. Anyway, I think this can work."
Boss Liu grabbed a piece of clothing.
"What are you going to do so late?"
Li Guixiang asked puzzledly.
"Going out to take care of some business. By the way, tomorrow, make sure Lin Yifan comes to change our daughter’s medicine. Remember, he must come personally."
Boss Liu instructed, then turned and left the house.
At this moment, the village was unusually quiet, and each household was preparing for sleep.
Boss Liu rode his motorcycle out of the village, following a narrow path, rounding more than half of the mountainside.
About half an hour later, he parked the motorcycle outside a courtyard with earthen walls.
Taking down two bottles of Erguotou from the back seat, he pushed open the gate and walked inside.
"Grandpa, Grandma, I’m here to see you."
He walked all the way to the simple house inside, pulled open the creaking wooden door.
Passing through the kitchen, he entered the room.
The whole house wasn’t big; besides the kitchen, there was just a room on the right.
The small room was largely occupied by an earthen bed covered with a worn mat.
At the end of the bed were two wooden cabinets, the only furniture there.
The dim bulb emitted a yellow glow, illuminating an elderly couple with white hair, dressed in blue cloth, sitting cross-legged on the bed.
Seeing Boss Liu, they didn’t speak, just nodded.
"Dad, Mom, here’s the wine I brought for you."
Placing the wine on the table in the middle of the bed, Boss Liu sat on the edge.
"Something happened at home, that’s why I’m late. Recently, the village has been relatively peaceful... Lin Yifan plans to open a clinic here, and today luckily he saved Xiao Cui... I think just me wanting to compete for village head might be tough... Xiao Cui now has feelings for Lin Yifan... If they end up together, wouldn’t the village be under our influence in the future..."
Boss Liu explained the recent village events to the elderly couple.
But they just smiled and nodded, not saying a word.
After speaking for about half an hour, Boss Liu got up and left the house, riding his motorcycle back to the village.
"Old man, what do you think about this?"
It was only until the two of them remained that the elderly lady spoke.
But her voice was strong and vibrant, showing no sign of frailty.
"It seems he’s taken over the soul suppressor role, but it’s unclear how capable he is. I’m worried if the village guardian passes away, he could struggle supporting it alone, especially since those old ones are already sharpening their knives."
The old man grabbed the Erguotou, unscrewed the cap, and took a sip.
"Back then, we lost to Old Lin, punished to guard here for a lifetime. But now, with Old Lin gone, those at West Mountain can’t sit still; they even came yesterday asking about our stance, I stayed silent but they made it clear they want to move against the soul suppressor. If we help him, we become mortal enemies. Old man, you need to make a decision."
The gaze in the old lady’s eyes was questioning.
"I always felt that boy isn’t that simple. If I’m Old Lin, knowing my destiny, I’d remove all the blatant and hidden threats from the village, paving the way for him. So, I don’t see Old Lin as kind-hearted, nor would he trust we abide by our flimsy oaths."
The old man shook his head, gazing through the window into the darkness outside.
"So, for now, we’re just watching from the sidelines, let those youngsters test their skills. If he endures, we’ll lend a hand, doing him a favor. If not, don’t blame us for kicking him while he’s down."
At this hour, it wasn’t just them plotting.
In the shadows, other figures were also restless and ready to make a move.
...
"Xiao Cui, how are you? I’m really worried about you, are you feeling better? Your parents won’t let me stay to accompany you."
In the midnight phone call, Huang Mao Daqing was excitedly speaking sweet words.
But on the other end, Liu Xiaocui’s voice was cold and indifferent.
"If you had stopped the doctor, I might’ve died already. Are you worried about my life or my body being seen?"
"Xiao Cui... wasn’t I just anxious? You’ve been pure, saying you’ll wait until we marry to give yourself... I was worried about your life. If you died, how could I live alone? I promised you, didn’t I? We’d die together."
Daqing hurried to explain.
"Die together? When the snake bit me, you even dragged me along to run, is that dying together? If my parents hadn’t found me, I’d be dead in the wild by now. Daqing, let’s end this; we started online, let’s finish online. From now on, let’s move on separately."
Liu Xiaocui spoke coldly.
This online romance for her was like a big dream.
"Xiao Cui, you want to break up with me? Don’t you love me anymore? Or is it because of that doctor who saw your body?"
Upon hearing this, Daqing seemed to ignite in anger, shouting furiously.
"Who I love is not your concern. Don’t call again."
Liu Xiaocui hung up the phone directly.
Skillfully, she deleted WeChat and blocked the number.
Holding her phone again, her mind was filled with Lin Yifan’s image.
She, who never bothered to speak in village groups, started browsing through previous village photos.
Looking at that handsome face, her cheeks got even redder.
"I’ll kill that village doctor... I swear I’ll kill him!"
