Douluo: Danheng just want to avoid trouble, Gu Yuena Pursues.-Chapter 175: Dan Heng’s Hidden Power

Evening.

During dinner at Dan Heng's house, Gu Yue Na was absent, and Zi Ji couldn't help but cause some trouble.

"Brother-in-law, where did you take my sister?" Zi Ji stared at Dan Heng, looking like she was ready to accuse him.

Dan Heng glanced at Zi Ji, slightly shook his head, and chose not to respond.

This little sister-in-law had a personality that could only be controlled by Gu Yue Na. The more he responded to her, the more she would try to push his buttons.

Seeing that Dan Heng ignored her, Zi Ji squinted her eyes and tapped a few dishes on the table with her chopsticks.

"Brother-in-law, now that my sister isn't here, are you going to bully us?" she complained.

"Why are there only four dishes today? Usually, there are seven or eight!"

Zi Ji continued her grievance.

"..." Dan Heng gave her a long, silent look.

Gu Yue Na usually had the biggest appetite at home. With Zi Ji and Bi Ji combined, they probably didn't eat as much as she did, so Dan Heng would cook more.

But now that Gu Yue Na wasn't home, why should he tire himself out?

Dan Heng didn't think there was any reason to be criticized by Zi Ji. After all, with this amount of food, Zi Ji hadn't eaten any less.

"Say something, brother-in-law!" Zi Ji urged, slamming her bowl onto the table, her eyes almost shooting fire.

Bi Ji gently shook her head and placed a hand on Zi Ji's shoulder.

"Alright, Zi Ji, don't..."

"Don't what? Brother-in-law, you're giving us different treatment! Why are there fewer dishes now that my sister is gone? I'm not having it!" Zi Ji boldly declared, turning away and snorting.

However, she was sneakily watching Dan Heng from the corner of her eye, seemingly trying to figure out if he would soften up and apologize.

Dan Heng wasn't going to indulge his little sister-in-law. He continued eating, saying, "Your sister will be back later. It won't be long."

"..." Zi Ji's eyes flickered for a moment.

She wasn't about to let Gu Yue Na know what was going on. If Dan Heng told her, would she get in trouble?

Zi Ji was starting to panic, and at the same time, she was resentful of the "differential treatment" from Dan Heng!

Bi Ji smiled helplessly and spoke a few words to give Zi Ji an out.

"Brother-in-law, we don't mind the food, but what about our face masks? You have that, right?" Zi Ji stretched out her hand, nearly pushing her pale pink palm into Dan Heng's chest.

Dan Heng gave a hum, and then placed a jar of face mask mud into Zi Ji's palm.

He then handed one to Bi Ji and Zhu Zhuqing as well.

To avoid Gu Yue Na getting upset, the face masks were specially provided, but the face mask mud didn't matter.

"Thank you, brother-in-law (teacher)!" Bi Ji and Zhu Zhuqing both thanked him.

Zi Ji, on the other hand, smugly snorted, as if the face mask was her trophy, not a gift from Dan Heng.

"You think this settles everything? Brother-in-law, there's a lot more you owe me! Because of you, I was..."

Zi Ji stood in front of Dan Heng with her hands on her hips, prepared to continue her complaints.

Just then, the door opened, and Gu Yue Na walked in.

Zi Ji froze and stared blankly.

How did Gu Yue Na return without making a sound?

"Zi Ji? What are you doing?" Gu Yue Na asked, confused.

Zi Ji's face changed instantly, and after a moment of hesitation, she realized that if she admitted to acting tough in front of Dan Heng, it was obvious that she would be punished.

"I... I was just trying to massage brother-in-law's shoulders... He must be exhausted after a long day..." Zi Ji put on a smiling face, her previous arrogance completely gone, replaced by a flattering grin.

She stood behind Dan Heng, using her delicate fingers to knead his shoulders.

"..." Gu Yue Na narrowed her eyes. What was Zi Ji trying to do? Was she challenging her authority as a wife in front of her?

Zi Ji quickly acted like she had been electrocuted and pulled her hands away, awkwardly saying, "Sister, you... I..."

"Just eat your meal and stop doing unnecessary things," Gu Yue Na said indifferently.

"Okay, okay, okay..."

Zi Ji quickly scurried back to her seat, head down, focusing on her food, not daring to say another word.

"Have you eaten?" Dan Heng asked.

He didn't expect Gu Yue Na to return so soon.

Gu Yue Na nodded slightly and smiled, "I've already eaten, husband. I've taken care of everything! Our face mask business will definitely take off now! We just need to get those little girls from Tian Shui Academy to make more as soon as possible."

Dan Heng hummed in agreement, taking her hand and nodding, "Thank you for your hard work, my wife..."

Gu Yue Na sat on Dan Heng's lap, wrapping her arms around his neck, and nuzzled against him, "I like it..."

As she said this, she gave a subtle look to Zhu Zhuqing and the other two girls.

Zhu Zhuqing immediately understood and left without saying a word.

Bi Ji also got up, noticing that Zi Ji was quickly gobbling down her food. She pulled her up and led her out of the room.

"!!!" Zi Ji looked utterly shocked and unwilling to leave, but she had no choice but to follow.

...

The next day.

Shui Bing'er and the others received instructions from Gu Yue Na.

They were to focus on making face mask mud, with the brand name "Dan Yue."

Shui Bing'er accepted the order without question, but once back in her room, she couldn't help but frown.

"This guy... we might be in trouble..."

"The face mask mud hasn't even gained recognition yet, and now we need to produce it in bulk. That's going to waste a lot, and it has a shelf life..."

"Besides, we need to buy raw materials quickly and get ready-made workers... This is going to cost a lot, and if we don't follow her orders..."

Shui Bing'er bit her lip, helplessly shaking her head.

Xue Wu put her arm around her shoulder and softly said, "Why not just speak up? She doesn't know anything about business..."

The other members of the Tian Shui team also began to offer their opinions.

However, when they thought about Gu Yue Na's imposing aura, their tones softened.

If they upset Gu Yue Na, who knew what would happen?

At this moment, Huo Wu happened to be in the room. She listened to the whole thing and said, "The Blaze Fire Academy has some influence here, so I'll help."

She thought that if she helped Gu Yue Na out, maybe she could get Gu Yue Na to vouch for her and let her become Dan Heng's disciple!

Shui Yue'er also smiled and said, "I can try my best too! And since Teacher Gu has said so, it must be fine. You're all overthinking it. We should just follow Teacher Gu's lead!"

Shui Bing'er looked at her naive younger sister and helplessly shook her head.

"What do you know?"

"Do you know how much we need to invest? Those materials aren't cheap, and the most important thing is, with such a rush, a lot of the spending is unnecessary!"

"If we do it as she says, we'll lose a lot of money! But the person who loses isn't her!"

Shui Bing'er was a little annoyed and snapped at Shui Yue'er.

Shui Yue'er was stunned by the scolding, her eyes filled with tears. Without saying anything, she covered her face and ran out of the room.

...

At the library.

Dugu Yan came in and approached Dan Heng, who was deeply immersed in a book.

She quietly walked over and stood at the service desk, softly calling out.

"Dan Heng, sir...?"

Dan Heng looked up, "Dugu Yan..."

Dugu Yan smiled brightly, her face lighting up with joy.

"Dan Heng, sir, that Dan Yue face mask mud, you developed it, right?" Dugu Yan asked, looking at him with hopeful eyes.

Dan Heng thought for a moment and nodded slightly.

"Yes."

Dugu Yan's smile grew even wider, praising, "I knew it was you, Dan Heng! Who else could have developed such a magical face mask mud?"

Dan Heng frowned slightly and asked, "Is this face mask mud really famous now?"

Dugu Yan nodded and whispered, "It should be gaining fame soon. Dan Heng, sir, is Yin Yue you, or Teacher Gu?"

"..." Dan Heng paused for a moment.

He suddenly had a bad premonition.

Did Gu Yue Na do something outrageous at Moon Pavilion last night?

"What did she do?"

Dugu Yan chuckled softly, "You didn't know? Yin Yue wowed everyone at Moon Pavilion, stunning everyone in the room. Then, she quickly charmed Lady Lister and made Lady Tang Yueha blush. After taking out the face mask mud, all the noble ladies there were completely enamored with it and said they'd promote it..."

"..." The more Dan Heng heard, the more it didn't seem right. Gu Yue Na had gone a little too far.

Could he even keep his own disguise now?

Had he attracted a bunch of noble ladies?

"Does anyone know her real identity?" Dan Heng asked, looking for the most important piece of information.

Dugu Yan shook her head, "No, at the end, Yin Yue suddenly disappeared, and no one noticed."

"The noble ladies practically worshipped her, saying she was the most beautiful melody in the empire. Lady Lister even said she'd give her all her wealth... Many of the ladies were simply mesmerized!"

Dugu Yan exaggerated the situation.

"..." Dan Heng's mouth twitched, not sure what to say anymore.

However, he believed that Gu Yue Na would know how to control things.

She wouldn't bring trouble to his family.

Dugu Yan then said, "Dan Heng, sir, what book are you reading? I can help you borrow it. You might want to hide out for a while."

"What do you mean?" Dan Heng froze. How did she know he wanted to hide?

Dugu Yan explained, "Lady Tang Yueha is the Emperor Xue Yue's exclusive, and right after the Yin Yue left, he came to Moon Pavilion and reportedly went into a rage!"

"..."

Dan Heng rubbed his forehead. Great, it seemed like he had misjudged things. Gu Yue Na's control over the situation wasn't as great as he had hoped.

"Dan Heng, sir, could you... could you give me a couple of jars of face mask mud? Some of my friends want to try it too..."

Dugu Yan asked awkwardly.

Dan Heng immediately took out five jars and placed them on the service desk.

He also told her the books he wanted to borrow.

He was researching ancient soul tools. Now that he had some clues, looking at more materials should help him replicate them!

...

At the training ground.

The Blue Tyrant Team and Shrek Team members were training together.

Liu Erlong was chatting with Gu Yue Na nearby.

"Teacher Gu, you're collaborating with Tian Shui Girl's team to make face masks? Why didn't you come to me? We at Blue Tyrant Academy can do it too," Liu Erlong said, clearly displeased.

Gu Yue Na casually replied, "Blue Tyrant Academy isn't there yet."

Liu Erlong felt frustrated, thinking her academy wasn't inferior to Tian Shui Academy in any way.

"Teacher Gu, what's the product like? I'm from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family, I can help you out."

Liu Erlong said seriously, really wanting to help Gu Yue Na.

After all, she respected Dan Heng and his wife, and she didn't mind the trouble if it could help them!

But the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family's influence was obviously much greater than Tian Shui Academy's.

For them, promoting a cosmetic product would be a simple task.

Gu Yue Na slightly shook her head. "Not necessary. We've already opened up the channels."

Liu Erlong looked confused. "Although I don't understand all the twists and turns, Teacher Gu, this isn't as simple as you think."

Gu Yue Na simply shook her head and didn't continue the conversation.

At that moment, half of the Blue Tyrant Team had stopped, but for the Shrek Team, only Ning Rongrong was still struggling.

Drenched in sweat, Ning Rongrong ran over to Gu Yue Na and Liu Erlong, seeking shelter in the shade.

Liu Erlong looked unhappy as the Blue Tyrant Team's performance was dismal!

Ning Rongrong walked over and heard their conversation, smiling slightly before adding, "So the face mask was made by Teacher Gu?"

"Now the entire high-society women's circle must be talking about that face mask!"

Ning Rongrong sat beside them, gazing at Gu Yue Na with surprise.

Liu Erlong was momentarily stunned, "You know about it too?"

"I heard about it! That face mask has amazing effects, and I was thinking about how to buy it, didn't expect the goddess to be right in front of me... Teacher Gu, could you sell me a few boxes?" Ning Rongrong asked, grinning.

Liu Erlong paused for a moment. She knew Ning Rongrong's identity, and if even she wanted to buy a few boxes, it meant the face mask was something truly special!

She instinctively touched her face, then looked at Gu Yue Na and quickly said, "I also want some, Teacher Gu! I'll help you promote it!"

Ning Rongrong immediately added, "My father was going to help already! Teacher Gu, didn't you know?"

After learning about the face mask, Flender went to find Yu Xiaogang. At the moment, Yu Xiaogang was teaching Hu Liena about soul power theory. He didn't know Hu Liena was a soul master, but insisted on discussing these matters.

"Bang...!" Flender excitedly burst into the room, shouting, "Xiaogang! I just heard that Erlong wants to promote the face mask business! What do you think, can we start a business like that and make some money?"

Yu Xiaogang furrowed his brows, looking at Flender, annoyed, "Flender, before entering, you should learn to knock on the door, not barge in like this."

"???" Flender was taken aback, looking at Hu Liena, realizing what Yu Xiaogang was doing.

He was trying to show off again, just like he did with Liu Erlong earlier!

Flender's face darkened as he swallowed his displeasure.

"Alright, Xiaogang, you're not going to make me leave again, are you?"

Yu Xiaogang shook his head slightly and said indifferently, "Alright, Flender, I know what you're trying to say, but that kind of small-time operation will only degrade their status, they won't gain anything. Business is not as simple as they think."

"We're not doing it?" Flender asked, confused.

"There's no need. Just watch how they run into trouble," Yu Xiaogang replied.
