Chapter 106: Chapter 107: When It Rains, It Pours

’I can’t say or do anything more with this guy, or I’ll fall right into his trap!’

With that thought, Zhang Rong immediately went to make dinner.

Li Yang, with nothing better to do, also went back to the kitchen to chat with Su Yunmeng.

"How’s the flower planting coming along?" Su Yunmeng asked with a smile. "If the dilution is successful, we’ll start working on the packaging design and so on. At the same time, you’ll need to supply the raw materials, or we won’t be able to start production."

"The supply of raw materials is a bit low right now, but I’ll do my best to expand it," Li Yang said seriously.

"Alright!"

After dinner, Li Yang chatted with them for a while before getting ready to leave.

"Aunt Rong, could you see him out for me?" Su Yunmeng said. "I’m so tired. I need to take a shower and rest."

"Okay!" Li Yang immediately said with a smile. "Sister Su, you get some rest then."

Zhang Rong had no choice but to stand up and say, "Alright, let’s go."

Li Yang eagerly trotted after her.

"You were so eager for me to walk you out. What kind of scheme are you plotting now?" Once they were outside, Zhang Rong saw right through Li Yang and said irritably.

"Aunt Rong, what are you talking about? Sister Su asked you to see me out, not me."

’Fine, fine, fine, you’ve got a point!’

Aunt Rong couldn’t be bothered to say anything more to him.

Once he was in his car, Zhang Rong waved goodbye to Li Yang. "You, don’t be so impulsive next time. If you run into another punk like that, stay far away from him."

Li Yang smiled. "Got it!"

Back in the village, everything was perfectly still and silent.

Li Yang took a shower and went to sleep.

When he got up the next day, he went to check on the molting flowers and found they were flourishing even more.

These past few days, Li Yang had instructed Zhou Liyun to water them with the Jade Bracelet Water, which was why they were growing even better.

After some thought, Li Yang started transplanting some of the flowers.

In a little while, they would surely grow even more.

By the time he finished all this, it was already the afternoon.

Li Yang went over to Bishui Lake to check on the construction project. He found that the progress was good; the main structure was already up.

’That’s fast!’

It wouldn’t be long before this place was completely built.

Li Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

A little later, Qin Susu drove over and found Li Yang.

"My construction team is about to come in too!" Qin Susu said happily. "We should be able to build the factory very soon, right at that spot we looked at last time. I’ll have them build it quickly so we can get into production as soon as possible. Then we can start making money sooner."

Seeing how enthusiastic she was, Li Yang naturally couldn’t bring himself to dampen her spirits, so he just nodded.

"I think this road is a problem, though!" Qin Susu said with a frown. "If possible, the first thing we should do after we make some money is to fix this road."

Li Yang’s eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "You’re absolutely right about that. Poor transportation will definitely affect our development."

"See? You think so too!" Qin Susu was very pleased. "Alright, I’m going to take my people in to start building the factory. Uh, I might have to stay at your place for a few days."

"No problem, stay as long as you like!" Li Yang said.

Qin Susu gave him a suspicious look. "Don’t you go getting any ideas."

’What would I be looking at?!’

Li Yang almost jumped up in indignation and shot her a glare.

Soon, Qin Susu had taken her construction team to Cold Water Lake.

Just then, Li Yang received a call from Yang Lin. "Li Yang, can you come out here? I think my dad’s missing."

Li Yang was taken aback for a moment. "Your dad’s a grown man..."

"I know, I know!" Yang Lin sounded anxious. "But I can’t reach his phone. Ever since you left my house that day, my dad has barely been home. He’s never been gone this long before."

’It has been a while.’

"Why don’t you keep looking?" Li Yang said after a moment of silence. "Ask around with people who know him, see if anyone knows where he went."

"I’ve already asked. Everyone said they don’t know. I want to call the police."

"Then call them," Li Yang said. "I bet he went off gambling somewhere again."

"Can you help me find him?" Yang Lin sounded like she was about to cry from frustration. "I really don’t know what else to do."

Li Yang sighed. He didn’t have a good impression of Yang Hu and didn’t really want to get involved. But since Yang Lin had put it that way, it seemed he couldn’t just ignore it. So, he said, "Alright, I’ll come out right away."

He had just hung up when another call came in.

He looked at the screen and saw it was from Zhao Xuechu.

"Miss Zhao, what’s wrong?" Li Yang asked.

"Can you do me a favor?" Zhao Xuechu’s voice on the other end also sounded anxious. "Zhenzhen is missing!"
