280 Hit the wall

Leng, I told you that I need to talk to you," Xia Tian looked at her with an innocent expression.“What is it” Leng Bingbing gritted her teeth and asked."I want to apply for an ID card," Xia Tian said...The Expert Flower Guardian in the City 280: Running into Walls

The next morning, under the gaze of many villagers, Mu Han's Audi Q7 slowly departed from He Kou Village. Xia Tian, Sun XinXin, Sun TianYu, and Tian XiaoYa were all seated inside the car, marking their end to their trip in Lin Jiang and their return journey to Jiang Hai.

Despite spending three days in Lin Jiang, Xia Tian still harbored some regrets; that fellow called Crown Prince managed to escape. As such, he hadn't been able to meet him even once, let alone fulfill his desire to give the Crown Prince a beating. This was undoubtedly disheartening for Xia Tian, who usually got what he wanted.

Of course, another source of Xia Tian's frustration was that he still couldn’t hook up with Police Flower Sister despite all his efforts. Nevertheless, she did owe him thirty-one kisses, which at least provided a modicum of consolation.

In contrast, Sun XinXin was in high spirits as she considered her return home to be triumphant. Now the villagers looked at their family differently and had also left some money for their household. Most importantly, however, was that she just learned Zhang Dazhu had been arrested for drug trafficking. This likely meant an execution sentence for him, ensuring she wouldn’t have any more trouble from him.

Initially, Sun XinXin planned to stay at home a few more days, but Xia Tian received a call from Liu YunMan, who said her head was hurting again. Realizing it had been a month since he last treated her and that she needed another injection after every month, Xia Tian decided to return immediately.

Not wanting to be alone at home, Sun XinXin accompanied Xia Tian on the trip back.

The journey was uneventful, and they arrived in Jiang Hai City by midday.

First, Xia Tian dropped off Sun XinXin at her flower shop. Then he went with Mu Han to pick up Liu YunMan from a hospital nearby before heading over to the Qiao family’s place.

Since Xia Tian could now perform the miraculous third needle injection, he wanted to cure Liu YunMan's illness completely. However, given that using all eight needles was still somewhat risky—especially after nearly being killed by Li MingXuan—he chose instead to treat her at Qiao Family Manor where it would be safer.

The Qiao family had excellent security measures in place, and more importantly for Xia Tian, Liu Meng was currently staying with them. Having Liu Meng around provided him the best possible protection.

Cai Jing Xiaoqiao's villa, Liu Meng saw Xia Tian and started complaining: "Little rascal, where have you been playing these few days Why didn't you bring me along"

Before Xia Tian could answer, Liu Meng looked at Liu Yunman with a somewhat unhappy expression: "Xiaoman, you're too unbrotherly. You played with the little rascal; why didn't you tell me I'm your aunt!"

Liu Yunman was a bit amused and frustrated. If she really had been playing with Xia Tian, she definitely wouldn’t have invited this aunt.

"Auntie, I just saw Xia Tian now." Liu Yunman could only explain.

"Oh well, you must remember to invite me along when there are fun things in the future!" Liu Meng thought solely about having fun and didn't care much about other matters.

"Auntie, I understand." Feeling a real pain now, Liu Meng rubbed her head.

"Sis Meng, I need to treat Sis Yunman. Could you help me" Xia Tian finally spoke up and then pulled Liu Meng along with Liu Yunman upstairs into the bedroom where Liu Meng was staying here.

Was it like helping that old man last time "Liu Meng asked out of curiosity.

"No, just watch over here. Don't let anyone disturb me." Xia Tian replied.

Liu Meng suddenly became unhappy: "So you want me to be your bodyguard!"

Even though Liu Meng thought it wasn't very fun, she ultimately took up this temporary bodyguard mission. However, as she watched Xia Tian needle-treating Liu Yunman, yawns kept coming out involuntarily. It was too boring; practicing martial arts would be more interesting. She would look for Feng'er and Huang'er to practice after.

Luckily, it did not take long. It only took about half an hour for Xia Tian to finish the acupuncture treatment. Liu Yunman felt refreshed as she got up from the bed, but Xia Tian looked a bit tired. This was always the result after using the Eight Miraculous Needles. However, there was no problem this time since Liu Meng was right beside him.

Without caring that Liu Yunman was still around, Xia Tian hugged Liu Meng and said, "Sis Meng, let's practice the Double Cultivation."

"I haven't eaten yet… Mm…" Liu Meng protested but before she could finish her sentence, Xia Tian had already covered her mouth with his.

Liu Yunman hurriedly left the room. As soon as she closed the door behind her, she saw Xia Tian hugging and lying down on top of Liu Meng. Her pretty face turned red. At that moment, she confirmed that Auntie had been put to bed by Xia Tian long ago.

Xia Tian did not get up until dinner time. Liu Meng got up a little earlier than him since she was very hungry because she hadn't eaten at noon. As soon as the food was served on the table, she smelled it and quickly got out of bed to eat. She had started eating alone at the dining table.

Qiao Xiaoqiao, Mu Han, Qiao Feng'er, and Qiao Huang'er were waiting for Xia Tian to have dinner together with them. As for Liu Yunman, she left after curing her illness at noon. Mu Han did not leave because she was homeless now. Wherever Xia Tian went, she would go too.

Xia Tian sat down next to Qiao Xiaoqiao and then looked at Qiao Feng'er and Qiao Huang'er across the table, feeling puzzled: "Why do you look like Meimei"

"What's Meimei" asked Qiao Feng'er in confusion.

“Who is Meimei” Qiao Huang'er also asked.

Xia Tian pointed at the two women's faces and said, "Meimei is a woman who loves to wear sunglasses day or night. That’s how you both look right now." Indeed, they were wearing oversized dark glasses that covered most of their faces.

"Isn't it your fault" Qiao Feng'er angrily said.

Summer felt rather innocent: "What does it have to do with me Even without the sunglasses, I wouldn’t marry either of you. Besides, I can still recognize what you look like whether or not you wear them!"

"Hehe, naughty one, I know why they're wearing sunglasses," Willow Dream suddenly chimed in while enjoying her meal.

"Why" Summer couldn't figure out the reason.

"Just take a look!" Qiao Feng'er angrily took off her sunglasses.

Summer was stunned; Qiao Feng'er now had black eyes and bruises, clearly having been beaten up. No wonder she wore sunglasses.

"Are you the same as her" Summer curiously looked at Qiao Huang'er.

"What do you think" Qiao Huang'er also took off her sunglasses; it was indeed similar. Two beautiful ladies suddenly became so ashamed that they couldn’t show their faces.

“That's your mistake, girls shouldn't fight隨便. Even if you do, you shouldn't hit each other’s face!” Summer shook her head and then comforted the two women: "Don’t worry though; go find Beautiful Sister to buy some cosmetics and everything will be fine."

"We didn’t fight!" The two women spoke in unison.

"Right, naughty one, they didn't fight," Willow Dream also chimed in from the side.

“Oh, did you bang your heads against a wall then I was wondering why you would do something so senseless as banging your head. Even if you wanted to commit suicide, there’s no need to bang your head; I could give you some medicine for an easier death.” Summer still couldn’t figure it out.

"You!" Qiao Feng'er and Qiao Huang'er were nearly speechless. What kind of person was this Was he even speaking in a human language

"Puchi!" Qiao Xiaoqiao couldn't help but giggle, "Husband, don't say nonsense! Phoenix and Fairy weren’t fighting or banging their heads against walls; they were with Dream when she was practicing martial arts, and Dream beat them up."

“Right, naughty one, it’s me who hit them,” Liu Meng nodded her head and continued eating.

"Is that so!" Xia Tian scratched his head. "How come you can't even defeat Dream then"

"It's all because of the many powerful martial arts skills you taught to Dream!" Qiao Feng'er said resentfully.

“Dream, don’t make us two be your sparring partners anymore; find someone else!” Qiao Huang'er looked aggrieved as well.

"But there's no one here who can serve as a sparring partner for me!" Liu Meng was equally innocent.

"You could ask him to spar with you," Qiao Feng'er pointed at Xia Tian.

Liu Meng looked at Xia Tian and then pouted: "I don't want the little rascal to be my sparring partner. I can’t defeat him, and besides, he always likes doing bad things."

"You could ask her too!" Qiao Huang'er pointed at Mu Han. Though she was not familiar with Mu Han, it didn't matter who it was as long as someone else took the blame.

“Do you know any martial arts” Liu Meng looked at Mu Han.

"A little bit." Mu Han nodded.

"Then would you like to practice with me" Liu Meng asked. "Once I get better at it, we can go out and bully others together."

Qiao Feng'er and Qiao Huang'er couldn't help but grumble; she could already go out to bully people.

"Sure, I have nothing much going on recently," Mu Han thought for a moment before nodding and saying.

"Great!" The three of them nearly shouted this phrase at the same time. Qiao Feng'er and Qiao Huang'er were overjoyed to finally be free, while Liu Meng was delighted to finally find someone else to practice with again.

"Alright, let's eat first," Qiao Xiaoqiao spoke up.

Qiao Feng'er and Qiao Huang'er felt much better emotionally now; their appetites were sky-high. Coupled with the presence of Xia Tian and Liu Meng who had big appetites, all the dishes on the table naturally vanished quickly.

"Come on, let's go practice!" After finishing the meal, Liu Meng pulled Mu Han upstairs, while Qiao Feng'er and Qiao Huang'er looked at Mu Han's back figure with a sympathetic expression.

Qiao Xiaoqiao continued to go upstairs to do her work. Xia Tian stayed alone in the living room watching TV. After some time, he found it boring and was thinking about going out somewhere when Leng Bingbing called him.

"Have you returned to Jianghai" Leng Bingbing asked urgently over the phone.

"I'm back. Has Police Flower Sister missed me I'll come right away," Xia Tian had just been planning to leave. Ming had tried many ways to use connections to get him back, but it never worked out, which made him feel guilty. If something really happened to Yu Jin in Linjiang, he would blame himself even more....
