The Happy Farmer Wanderer-Chapter 400 The Inconsistent Qi Family_1

Li Qing fell silent for quite a while before he finally said to Qi Mengru, "I do indeed know something."

"But the situation here is very complex, and I can’t explain it in a short time. In any case, your family is definitely not here to watch over some ancestral grave. They’re more likely here to rob it. There are two underground palaces beneath us, and after being nurtured by the yin energy over the years, some things have already taken on a significant presence. In short, there’s something very terrifying down there."

"The consequences of breaking into this place, I’m afraid no one could bear them."

Qi Mengru’s complexion changed drastically at once, "No way, I need to contact my family. They must be out of their minds!"

As she spoke, she took out her phone to make a call.

"Do you think they would believe what I’ve just said?" Li Qing spoke indifferently, "Your family must have prepared for a long time for the two large tombs below, and if they are taking action now, it’s probably because they are very confident."

Li Qing didn’t mind if Qi Mengru relayed to her family what he had just said.

What he feared was that no one would believe him.

In the memories of Li Yuanxian, that great terror, which he avoided like the plague, was hidden in an underground palace even larger than his own, a palace so vast that even Li Yuanxian didn’t know its boundaries.

Undoubtedly, such a place would definitely contain countless treasures.

Just taking one item could make someone instantly rich.

It’s just that he didn’t know which of the two underground palaces the Qi family had set their sights on.

The underground palace of Li Yuanxian might be less risky, after all, that guy was already dead.

But if it were the other underground palace, the consequences were something Li Qing dared not even imagine.

"I will find a way to stop them!" said Qi Mengru in a deep voice.

Li Qing nodded, "Let’s hope your family will listen to you this time."

"If they don’t listen, then I’ll find another way. Over the years, I’ve built up some connections. And after all, I’m still the principal of the school!" Qi Mengru stated decisively, "As long as I forcefully interfere, it won’t be so easy for them to start the work."

"Don’t act rashly, take good care of yourself!" Li Qing said gravely.

Although Qi Mengru had never explicitly stated her situation with her family.

Li Qing could clearly sense that their relationship was very strained, so strained that it was almost as if there was hardly any connection left.

Qi Mengru gave a gentle smile and sat in Li Qing’s embrace, "Actually... I did indeed want some today, but now after talking about these things, it seems like you’re not in the mood for that anymore, right?"

"With a beauty in my arms, not even the sky falling down could dampen my spirits, let alone these two matters." Li Qing chuckled, his palms already caressing the two plush mounds on Qi Mengru’s chest.

Gently stroking them, he continued, "Within the scope of my abilities, I will rescue who I can, but if I’m powerless, I’m not going to mope around with a frown and lose my appetite."

"You sure have a pretty open-minded view," Qi Mengru said, a hint of shyness surfacing on her cheeks, "I want you to help me undress!"

"I couldn’t ask for more!" Li Qing grinned mischievously and began unbuttoning Qi Mengru’s qipao.

This type of clothing really accentuated the figure.

Paired with high heels, it made Qi Mengru’s already stunning figure even more strikingly voluptuous.

When Li Qing entered the room, it was a struggle for his eyes not to get stuck on Qi Mengru’s body.

He set about undoing those troublesome buttons, lifting up Qi Mengru’s light green bra, using both hands and mouth.

"Mmm..."

Qi Mengru pressed her lips together tightly, uttering a faint moan.

She hadn’t come looking for Li Qing just today.

The day after their first time, she had already been craving it badly.

The sensation was like a worm gnawing at her bones, somewhat addictive.

Having not experienced such things in over three years, and then suddenly experiencing them again, especially with someone as robust as Li Qing, and with his such size, Qi Mengru found it hard to stop.

"Qingzi, I want you..."

"I haven’t kissed down there yet!" Li Qing said with a naughty laugh.

"No, I sweated a lot today, I’m sure I stink..."

...

More than an hour later, Li Qing left Qi Mengru’s office, walking as lightly as a wild goose.

Compared with the last time, Qi Mengru had clearly let loose.

This time, she had been the one moving almost the entire time, and her intoxicating little expressions had nearly mesmerized Li Qing.

Just as he left the school, Li Qing suddenly received a call from Lü Zong.

"Qingzi, are you free? Come to the hotel!"

Over the phone, Lü Zong’s voice was somewhat icy, seeming to suppress a powerful rage.

Li Qing immediately felt apprehensive.

Could it be that the incident with Qi Mengru last time at the hotel had been discovered by Lü Zong?

However, it was just a table, after all; he shouldn’t be that furious about it.

Li Qing, filled with doubts, responded and turned his car around, heading back toward the town.

Impression Hotel.

Lü Zong’s office was on the seventh floor, a lofty position.

But, higher ground offers a wider view.

From this vantage point, the city did look rather attractive.

But Li Qing only gave it a glance from the window; he was in no mood to enjoy the scenery.

After knocking, Li Qing entered Lü Zong’s office.

In the spacious office, not only was there Lü Zong, standing with his hands behind his back looking out the enormous floor-to-ceiling window, but Gong Ge was there too.

Gong Ge gave Li Qing a look and gestured for silence.

His gesture made Li Qing feel even more on edge.

It’s just a table, isn’t it?

"Qingzi is here?"

Lü Zong turned around, his mouth straining to form a slight smile, and got straight to the point, "The Qi Family has backed out, the project we agreed on is likely to fall through."

"Fall through?!" Li Qing was startled, "Why, Lü Zong?"

Even though it wasn’t about the table, this made Li Qing even more uncomfortable.

Damn it, how could it just fall through like that?

"They’re setting up their own construction company, planning to handle everything from general contracting to design and materials. They’re kicking us out," Lü Zong said grimly.

"Moreover, I’ve heard through the grapevine that the old campus of No. 3 Middle School is going to be rebuilt, and the Qi Family has taken full charge of that project. I’ve estimated the timelines, and the New Countryside project goes first, while the one for No. 3 Middle School is said to last two years."

"That means, they plan to nurture their own construction company and take on both of these major projects in the county."

"They want to raise their own donkey instead of borrowing one now."

Li Qing was instantly incensed as well.

What kind of bullshit noble family is this, taking back their word as if it’s as easy as farting.

"Lü Zong, we signed a contract, didn’t we? They should have to pay a penalty for breach of contract, right?" Li Qing asked.

"Yes!" Lü Zong nodded, "The penalty is ten percent, and they’ve agreed to pay it!"

"Since it was the Qi Family, I had initially set a low penalty as a gesture of goodwill. I never expected that this goodwill would turn into a trap for us to fall into."
