Chapter 270: Chapter 271: Wish Fulfilled

He finally made it home.

But as soon as he arrived, he saw the villa’s lights were on.

Evidently, Su Yunmeng was already back.

"Aunt Rong, you can’t just set me up like that." Li Yang finally understood why Zhang Rong had so easily agreed to reward him.

"I didn’t know Yun Meng was back either," Zhang Rong said, inwardly gloating. ’That’s what you get for trying to mess with me, kid.’ "You can’t blame me. It’s just your bad luck."

’Vixen!’

Li Yang cursed inwardly as he watched her act this way.

"Well, I brought him back for you. You two can talk..." After heading inside, Zhang Rong said to Su Yunmeng, "I’m going to go take a shower."

With that, the vixen swayed her hips at Li Yang and headed upstairs.

Li Yang was practically bursting with frustration. ’You vixen. One of these days, if I get you into bed, I’ll be sure to show you what I’m made of.’

"You’re here!" Su Yunmeng smiled when she saw Li Yang. "I was actually planning to call you in the next day or two. I didn’t expect you to come here, so that saves me the trouble of looking for you."

"You must have been working hard, Sister Su?" Li Yang asked with concern.

"It’s been fine!" Su Yunmeng smiled. "It’s definitely been tiring, but it’s worth it. We’ve finalized the best possible plan, and the factory is already under construction. As long as you can keep the raw materials supplied, we can start production very soon."

Li Yang felt a surge of excitement as well.

He knew that once this product hit the market, it would completely blow all the other cosmetics on the market out of the water.

"So, is there anything you need me to do?" Li Yang asked.

"Supply the raw materials," Su Yunmeng said earnestly. "Your most important job right now is to ensure a steady supply."

"That’s no problem!" Li Yang said with a smile. "I’ve already started planting the ingredients in batches. Even larger yields will be coming later on, so don’t you worry. I can absolutely keep up with the supply."

"Good to hear!" Su Yunmeng said with a smile. "That’s the one thing I was most worried about."

Li Yang nodded.

"Alright, you should go take a shower too," Su Yunmeng said. "My aunt told me you’ve been running around nonstop for your village, so much that no one ever sees you. I feel bad, too. I’ve been so caught up with the company that I haven’t been able to help you at all."

"You’re too kind, Sister Su. I just go to Aunt Rong if I need anything," Li Yang said.

"Alright!"

...

Soon enough, Li Yang went to take a shower.

When he came out of the shower, Su Yunmeng was no longer in the living room.

Zhang Rong, however, was sitting there. She glanced at him and said, "Pick any room you like."

Li Yang grinned slyly.

"By the way, once the factory is built, it won’t be long before we start production..." Zhang Rong fell silent for a moment before continuing, "When that happens... Yun Meng will have to be in the public eye."

Up until now, Su Yunmeng had managed to stay relatively low-key.

But once the product launched, she wouldn’t be able to keep a low profile even if she wanted to.

"Yeah..." Li Yang still hadn’t caught her meaning. "So what? Isn’t that great?"

Zhang Rong’s mouth fell open. She looked like she wanted to say something, but in the end, she didn’t. She just shot him a glare and said, "You ungrateful brat. Get out of my sight and go to bed."

With that, Zhang Rong sashayed upstairs to bed.

Li Yang was baffled.

’What was that all about? I didn’t even do anything to piss her off. Women are impossible to understand.’

Li Yang shook his head and found an empty guest room downstairs to sleep in.

He was lying in bed, and as it neared midnight, he was just about to drift off to sleep.

But just then, his phone let out a BING.

Li Yang checked his phone and was surprised to see a message from Aunt Rong.

"Come upstairs. To my room."

Li Yang was so excited he practically jumped out of bed.

’But... I wonder if Su Yunmeng is asleep yet. If I go upstairs now, what if she finds out? That would be so awkward.’

Li Yang thought for a moment and was about to text back to ask.

"Yun Meng always goes to bed early..." It was as if Zhang Rong knew what Li Yang was thinking, because she immediately sent another message.

Li Yang couldn’t hide his excitement.

’Aunt Rong, oh, Aunt Rong. You finally couldn’t resist, could you?’

’Heh heh, I knew it! Fortune favors the bold! You were finally moved by my persistence, weren’t you? Alright, I’m on my way!’

Li Yang quickly straightened himself up and eagerly scurried upstairs.

He was extra careful on his way, terrified of waking Su Yunmeng.

In no time, Li Yang was at her door.

The door swung open with a light push; she had clearly left it unlocked for him.

Li Yang’s heart pounded with even greater excitement. He immediately slipped inside and pulled the door shut behind him.

"Aunt Rong, I’m here."

A light was on inside—not the main overhead light, but a small, yellow lamp.

Aunt Rong was lying there, her face flushed crimson.

"Enough with the chatter," Aunt Rong whispered. "Get in bed. Now."

A thrill shot through Li Yang. In a flash, he zipped onto the bed.

Aunt Rong let out a soft gasp, but Li Yang quickly pulled her into his arms.

’We’re both adults. No need to play games.’

Li Yang was so excited he was almost speechless. ’Damn it, my wish is finally coming true!’

But at that very moment, suddenly...
