The Happy Farmer Wanderer-Chapter 660: New Device_1

After the three of them had their fun, Qi Mengru guided Li Qing and Guan Lin on a detailed tour of the mansion.

As Li Qing wandered and observed, he couldn’t find a single thing that dissatisfied him.

The place was simply the house of his dreams.

Suddenly, a call came in—it was Wang Baichuan.

When this guy called, it definitely wasn’t going to be good news.

"Officer Wang, what’s up?" Li Qing answered the phone and asked.

Wang Baichuan’s tone was somewhat grave, "Qingzi, you might need to get ready. Two members of the advance team that went into the Underground Palace didn’t make it out. Unless something unexpected happens, it looks like you guys will have to step in. I’m giving you a heads-up so you can prepare ahead of time."

"Another Underground Palace was found?" Li Qing frowned slightly and asked in a serious voice.

"We found another one. It’s already been visited by someone, but the traps inside are still intact," Wang Baichuan said. "Moreover, according to those who came up, there seems to be something living in there. No one dares to go down anymore; the archaeological team is seeking external assistance. The bureau wants you to take over as quickly as possible, clear the obstacles ahead, but nothing’s been finalized yet; however, I don’t anticipate any issues."

"I haven’t received any notice yet," said Li Qing. "Regarding this matter, I will definitely follow the instructions from above."

Last time, it was said that the Ninth Bureau would definitely take charge of this.

But Li Qing still hadn’t received any substantial orders as to how the various parties were coordinating.

Since there was no notification, he definitely wouldn’t rashly join in on the excitement.

"I understand; I’m just reminding you—it’s dangerous down there. Make all the preparations you should make," Wang Baichuan said.

"Thanks," replied Li Qing politely.

"What are you being polite for? I was hoping to ride on your coattails and pick up some credit," Wang Baichuan laughed.

After hanging up the phone, Li Qing intended to casually call Zi Ling and ask if they knew any news.

But after hesitating for a moment, he decided against it; that woman seemed to have something against him now, so it’s better not to provoke her.

If it came to a matter that would involve him, someone who should give notice would definitely do so.

Since there was no word yet, if they didn’t plan to send him in, it was probably just that arrangements hadn’t been made; no need to ask more.

"Qingzi, is there trouble again?" asked Qi Mengru.

Li Qing shook his head, "I’m not sure yet, but there might be some trouble."

He took out the Solidifying Spirit Elixir and Immortality Elixir he had prepared beforehand and handed them to Qi Mengru, "If there’s nothing else, let’s head back earlier; I still need to visit Lü Zong later."

Qi Mengru took the elixirs and upon hearing Lü Changxi’s name, her eyebrows raised slightly, and she asked with a smile, "Qingzi, you’ve been working closely with Lü Changxi—has he ever entertained you with those girls of his? Ever since he took over the entertainment venues under my brand, I’ve heard that old guy’s been riding high lately, striving to be top-notch in everything, right?"

Li Qing immediately became alert; it was clear that Qi Mengru didn’t have a small grievance against Lü Zong.

If he didn’t answer carefully, he might go a long time without any ’meat’ to eat.

Li Qing said earnestly: "He did indeed mention it, but as you know, I’ve always been one who doesn’t like to gamble without safety measures. Messing around with those women, I’m also afraid of catching diseases. But what’s more important is, with you, I really have no interest in having fun in that kind of place."

"You didn’t even have a taste?" Qi Mengru scrutinized Li Qing as she asked.

Li Qing shook his head very firmly, "Playing with them isn’t as interesting as being with you. I haven’t even thought about it."

"I can believe that you’re afraid of diseases, but saying you’re uninterested, that’s definitely not possible," Qi Mengru snorted lightly and said, "You men are just like little kids who always want to play with toys they’ve never had before."

"After all, I have better choices," Li Qing said with a somewhat forced smile.

"I’ll take your word for it this time, but if I find out, don’t ever think you can make me serve you like today again," Qi Mengru huffed proudly and threatened.

Li Qing quietly let out a sigh of relief in his heart.

It seemed he had managed to bluff his way through.

Although he hadn’t visited Lü Zong’s place often, he had indeed tried it, and there had been quite a variety of experiences.

After Qi Mengru had locked the front door, the three of them drove back to the county town.

After dropping Li Qing off at Lü Family Restaurant, Qi Mengru and Guan Lin went to the school.

Qi Mengru had a meeting in the afternoon, and Guan Lin had two more classes to teach, so she couldn’t accompany Li Qing on a pointless stroll.

Welcomed by a chorus of "President Li," he made his way into Lü Zong’s office, somewhere he knew well.

"Qingzi is here? Come on in. Perfect timing, you can check out this new batch of equipment I’ve brought in!" Lü Zong was outside his office in the hall, flipping through a bunch of brochures. He immediately greeted Li Qing with enthusiasm as he approached.

"What equipment?" Li Qing asked with some curiosity.

"Let’s go, I’ll show you the real thing. These brochures aren’t interesting," said Lü Zong enthusiastically, grabbing Li Qing by the arm and leading him to a private room at the back.

The place was now transformed by Lü Zong into something like a freaking labyrinth, door after door. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

There were quite a few people coming and going around, mostly scantily clad women, each with good looks and tall figures.

After all, everyone in this area had been meticulously selected by Lü Zong from different venues; they were definitely easy on the eyes.

They entered one of the rooms, where several girls were practicing.

It looked like a rehearsal, and there was even a class being taught.

"This is a professional teacher I’ve hired at great expense to instruct them," Lü Zong said, pointing to one of the women who was wearing tight underwear and introducing her to Li Qing.

"Hello, President Li."

Several girls simultaneously bent at the waist to greet Li Qing.

The magnificently undulating sight was quite a pleasure to behold.

"Lü Zong, what is all this?" Li Qing asked, looking at the chaotic setup inside, a bit bewildered.

"Let our professional explain it to you. Xiao Chen, come on," Lü Zong said to the teacher.

"President Li, this is an aerial dance prop. A lady can hang on this red silk and play the flute while upside down. She can also place her feet in the rings on each side, creating beautiful splits in midair for the guests to enjoy from below," Xiao Chen explained to Li Qing with practiced ease.

"These are nurse’s props. Our ladies can dress as nurses and provide services to customers fixed in this chair."

Li Qing found himself at a loss for words, caught between laughter and tears.

Qi Mengru had just warned him, and here he was, turning around to enjoy the new varieties.

"How about I personally demonstrate it for President Li? This way, you can have an even more direct experience," Xiao Chen said with a playful smile.

Li Qing waved his hands to refuse, "No, that’s unnecessary. I have some business to take care of later."

Although Xiao Chen was quite a looker, those who taught here were certainly veterans of countless battles, capable of taking on a hundred men a day. Li Qing truly had no interest.
