The police had arrived faster than everyone had expected.

The angry roars of Ol 'Four and the crying of Jin Xiu and the kids sounded like the end of the world.

As Ling Chen spoke, he was sitting on an old wooden bench, holding a piece of corn and roasting it.

Initially, he had thought that Ling Chen had something important to say, but the police officer's head was full of black lines.

He was completely vexed, alright?

He could only smile along, "Thank you Mr. Ling for your reminder. Don't worry, we will do this kind of thing well. If there's nothing else to tell, I'll take my people back. "

The police left dejectedly, the only ones left were the village chief's family members, who looked at Zhang Xiao Xiao and Ling Chen, and the villagers who had different attitudes.

In the beginning, the village chief had only heard from Zhou Cheng that two of his friends were coming over to play and did not know the identity of the other party.

Although he realised that this man should not be a normal office worker when he saw Ling Chen, he never thought that Ling Chen was actually someone who could call all the police in the city with a single phone call.

For such an isolated little mountain village, even if they didn't understand Ling Chen's real identity, just the fact that Ling Chen called for the police could already be considered as an important person that they couldn't get close to outside of the village.

This kind of recognition made many of their actions become very reserved when they came into contact with Ling Chen and Zhang Xiao Xiao.

Regarding this, Zhang Xiao Xiao was also helpless.

For the entire afternoon, Zhang Xiao Xiao and Ling Chen continued to wander around the village, only to discover that the villagers were looking at them as if they were looking at a panda when they entered the zoo.

So much so that later on, she no longer had any interest in wandering around the village anymore, and directly went back to the wooden house that Zhou Cheng had told them to prepare earlier.

After Zhou Cheng brought them there, he took the initiative and said to them, "This house has been empty for a long time. Then the whole family moved out of the valley. Hmm, the bedding and stuff are all new. If there's anything else I need, Mr. Ling can give me a call and I'll send it over to you guys. "

If it was according to Ling Chen's standards, then this house could not be lived in by living people.

But according to Zhang Xiao Xiao's standards, this kind of house that was filled with the national style, filled with the simplicity of the depths of the mountains, and even had a slightly aged, yet not rotten aura, was truly artistic.

Zhang Xiao Xiao did not expect Ling Chen to say anything good. She smiled and said to Zhou Cheng: "This place is pretty good, thank you!"

Before Zhou Cheng left, he hesitated for a moment. He had clearly reached the door, yet he turned back.

He looked a little awkward as he said to Zhang Xiao Xiao, "Miss Zhang, mm, if it's possible, can you please say a few words to Mr. Ling to stop pushing Jin Xiu and Fourth Bro too hard?"

"Now that the matters have been handed over to the police, I don't think Ling Chen and I can get involved anymore. When the time comes, let's see the attitude of the police."

Zhang Xiao Xiao did not understand why he said that, since Ling Chen was only handing his over to the police.

As for Jin Xiu, Zhang Xiao Xiao did not have a good impression of her. If Jin Xiu told her the truth from the start, she wouldn't mind helping this woman.

Unfortunately, Jin Xiu treated her as a fool from the beginning.

Zhang Xiao Xiao didn't think that she was a bad guy, but she also didn't think that she was an idiot who was being used by others and even had to selflessly sacrifice herself, treating herself as if she was a saint.

Hearing Zhang Xiao Xiao's words, Zhou Cheng knew that she did not understand her meaning. But when he wanted to go deeper and say something, Ling Chen suddenly looked towards him.

Just that one less second of eye contact had instantly caused a layer of cold sweat to emerge on Zhou Cheng's back. He swallowed down all his words, bid his farewells to Zhang Xiao Xiao, and left in a hurry.

Just like that, the small episode regarding Jin Xiu and Ol 'Four stopped at night on that day.

Because he did not want the village chief and the others to feel awkward while interacting with him and Ling Chen, when it was time for dinner, Zhang Xiao Xiao took the initiative to have Zhou Cheng deliver the food over.

This time, Zhou Cheng was especially silent. It was unknown if it was because of the glare he gave Ling Chen in the afternoon, but he did not dare to say anything.

Zhou Cheng helped Zhang Xiao Xiao and the rest set up all the food on the table, then asked the two of them: "En, what time do you plan to go to Immortal Lake for tomorrow?"

Ling Chen was not interested in this matter, and did not have any objections either. Hence, he just looked at Zhang Xiao Xiao, waiting to see what he wanted to say.

Zhang Xiao Xiao calculated in her mind, "Oh, then let's go take a breath of the fresh mountain air between seven and eight in the morning."

This should be the earliest time that Zhang Xiao Xiao felt that she could wake up. If it was a bit earlier, she probably could only let Ling Chen carry her.

Dinner was much richer than lunch.

Zhang Xiao Xiao looked at the table that was filled with fishes and fish, and was somewhat speechless: "Why do I feel that the two of us are the kind of people that went to the countryside to search for the fat of people, to bully the good citizens, the kind of greedy officials that the common people are?"

Ling Chen was shocked by Zhang Xiao Xiao's words. He used the chopsticks in his hand to knock on Zhang Xiao Xiao's head and said while at a loss of whether to laugh or cry, "Hurry up and eat your food."
