Chapter 25: One Punch for Every Meeting

“You!” Zhou Yu trembled with anger, pointing at Ling Yao.

Ling Yao sneered, “Did I say something wrong?”

Zhou Yu glanced at a figure and gave Ling Yao a sinister smile.

Then, she staggered back two steps and sat down on the ground, her face filled with shock and pain,

 “I know I shouldn’t be with Brother Gu, but I like him. If you want to hit me, hit me. Just don’t blame Brother Gu.”

Ling Yao rolled her eyes in disbelief. If she wanted to play this game, she wouldn’t be polite.

“You said it yourself.” Ling Yao took two steps forward, raised her hand, and slapped Zhou Yu’s face hard, “Slap! Slap! Slap!” The slaps landed without hesitation.

Zhou Yu was stunned. Why wasn’t Ling Yao playing by the rules? Shouldn’t she be rushing to explain?

“Ling Yao, what are you doing?!” Gu Qingan’s angry roar came from behind Ling Yao.

Ling Yao sneered, stopped hitting her, raised her foot, and kicked Zhou Yu to the ground. She shook her hand, disgusted, “Your face is so thick, it hurts my hand.”

Gu Qingan grabbed Ling Yao, “Why did you hit Xiaoyu? What did she do to you?”

Ling Yao lazily glanced at Gu Qingan, reached out, grabbed his arm, and then threw him over her shoulder.

Gu Qingan was caught off guard and fell to the ground. His eyes were filled with shock. He had been thrown over Ling Yao’s shoulder again.

Ling Yao clapped her hands, as if she had just done something insignificant. She looked down at Gu Qingan, her voice filled with disdain and mockery, “Stay away from me in the future. Otherwise, I’ll beat you every time I see you. Got it?”

“Ling Yao, what happened to you? You’re a complete shrew.”

“Shrew?” Ling Yao smiled playfully, raised her foot, and kicked Gu Qingan with lightning speed.

Gu Qingan didn’t expect Ling Yao to attack him. He didn’t have time to react and was kicked in the chest by Ling Yao.

The kick was like a cannonball, hitting Gu Qingan’s chest hard. A sharp pain shot through his chest, making it difficult for him to breathe for a moment.

Zhou Yu looked at Ling Yao in disbelief. Didn’t Ling Yao love Gu Qingan dearly? How could she attack him? She couldn’t help but wonder if the Ling Yao in front of her was the real Ling Yao.

Ling Yao looked at Gu Qingan’s expression and felt a sense of satisfaction.

“Scumbag and b*tch, bah!” Ling Yao looked at them with disdain and walked towards the bus stop at the village entrance.

Gu Qingan looked at Ling Yao’s departing figure with complex emotions.

“Brother Gu, are you okay?” Zhou Yu walked to Gu Qingan’s side and looked at him with concern. The kick Ling Yao had given him wasn’t light.

“I’m fine…” Gu Qingan shook his head and slowly got up from the ground. The pain from his injured chest made his face even paler.

“Let me take you to the infirmary to take a look. Don’t let it be a bone injury.”

“It’s nothing. There’s medicinal wine at home. I’ll just rub some on it when I get back.” He didn’t care about this little pain.

The injuries he had sustained during missions were much worse.

“But what if it’s a bone injury? That kick from Ling Yao wasn’t light.” Zhou Yu wanted to go to the infirmary.

She wanted Ling Xuemei to know how vicious her daughter was. She had not only hit her but also hit Gu Qingan.

“I know what I’m doing. Let’s go back.” Gu Qingan walked towards home.

Zhou Yu gritted her teeth in resentment, a malicious glint flashing in her eyes. No, she couldn’t just let Ling Yao get away with this.

 She would make Ling Yao’s reputation ruined, let the whole village know that Ling Yao had beaten them because she was jealous of her relationship with Gu Qingan.

 She would ruin Ling Yao’s reputation and make her unmarriageable for life.

Ling Yao walked down the street in a good mood, with light steps. She felt incredibly happy and satisfied after beating that pair of scumbags.

As she entered the Huayi Medical Hall, Ling Yao saw the old Chinese doctor looking distressed.

She walked over, “Mr. Hua, what’s wrong?”

Seeing it was Ling Yao, the old doctor’s eyes lit up, “Why are you here? Did you find another wild ginseng?”

That wild ginseng had been bought by a big shot. The big shot had called yesterday and asked him to find another ginseng of that quality. But it was a hundred-year-old wild ginseng. Where could he find it?

He had asked many friends, but they all said they didn’t have any wild ginseng. He was worried about this.

Ling Yao smiled and nodded. She took off the bamboo basket on her back, took out the wild ginseng, and placed it on the counter, “Take a look.”

The old doctor was excited when he saw the ginseng. He carefully held it in his hands, as if it were the most precious treasure in the world.

 He examined it carefully, as if he wanted to see every root of the ginseng.

He gently stroked the ginseng, feeling its delicate texture, “This ginseng is at least five hundred years old.

 If you’re willing to sell it, I’ll give you ten thousand yuan.” Ginseng of this age wasn’t just a ginseng root. It was a treasure.

If it wasn’t for the big shot who was desperate for it, he would definitely keep it for himself.

Just smelling the ginseng’s fragrance made him feel refreshed. If he could take a bite, it would be more effective than any tonic.

“Okay.” Ling Yao replied decisively, without any hesitation. There were countless ginseng roots of this quality in her space. It would be too shocking to take them all out.

The old doctor was overjoyed, “My shop doesn’t have that much cash. Come with me to the bank. I’ll transfer the money to you.”

“Mm.” Ling Yao nodded.

“Then wait a moment. I’ll go get my passbook.” The old doctor ran excitedly towards the back.

They arrived at the bank. There weren’t many people in line today. They didn’t wait long before it was their turn.

“Do you have a passbook?” The old doctor handed the passbook to the staff member and turned to ask Ling Yao.

Ling Yao nodded and took out her passbook and handed it to the staff member.

 The last time she came to deposit money, she encountered a robbery. Later, she came back and got a passbook.

The staff member looked at them both and took Ling Yao’s passbook.

Although there were no computers now, the transaction was still quite fast. It only took five minutes for Ling Yao’s passbook to be processed.

“Do you need to do any other business?” The staff member asked Ling Yao and the old doctor.

“Comrade, help me transfer ten thousand yuan to this young lady.” The old doctor said to the staff member.

The staff member was stunned. He asked again, unsure, “Are you sure you want to transfer ten thousand yuan to this comrade?”

That was ten thousand yuan, not ten yuan. Ten yuan could buy a lot of things these days.

“Yes, I’m sure.” The old doctor nodded.

“I need to talk to our bank president about this.” The staff member had never handled such a large sum of money before. He was a little hesitant to operate.
