Since Xiao Lingyu’s stock was sold out, she decided to leave. If she stayed longer, she might run into the UMALE officers.

After Xiao Lingyu left, the owner of one of the vegetable shops glared at her sinisterly.

…

Jiang Tao was working at the police station when he got a sudden call. “Uncle Chen,” Jiang Tao asked, “Is something wrong?”

Uncle Chen held the phone when Auntie Chen leaned over to ask, “Tao Zi, do you know if Lingyu’s crops have sold out? Is there more?”

Jiang Tao frowned. “I’m not sure.”

“You’re not sure too?” Uncle Chen sounded disappointed. Auntie Chen added, “Tao Zi, can you help us find out? Or Tao Zi, can you give us her number? We’ll call her to ask ourselves.”

Jiang Tao heard the anxiety in Uncle and Auntie Chen’s tone. He was suspicious. He asked, “Uncle Chen, is there anything wrong with Lingyu’s crops?”

Uncle Chen immediately explained, “No, of course not!” Then he paused, “If there is a problem, they are too delicious!”

“Huh?” Jiang Tao was confused. Since he went to meet Gong Tianhao, Jiang Tao hadn’t had the chance to cook Xiao Lingyu’s vegetables. They had been left in his fridge.

Uncle Chen smiled. “You definitely haven’t tasted her vegetables and fruits. How about this? Come to my place, and I’ll cook some for you. They’ll be so delicious, and it’s not because of my culinary skill!”

“Okay!” Jiang Tao was curious too. Uncle Chen was a five-star chef, so he was always picky about what he cooked with. There were not many ingredients that could get Uncle Chen’s praises. Therefore, Xiao Lingyu’s crops had to be very different.

Li Yuanhang drove a low-profile black car. Inside the car sat another man in a black suit, white shirt, and a grey tie. The car was driving out of Xing Yin County Town to head towards Taoyuan Village.

Li Yuanhang suddenly braked.

“What happened?” Gong Tianhao asked.

“We have rear-ended a tricycle!” Li Yuanhang said, “Tianhao, I’ll take a look.”

Xiao Lingyu had breakfast in the county town. After that, she rode the tricycle back to her rental. She forgot to check her oil tank, and the engine slowed down. Xiao Lingyu was easing the tricycle to the roadside when the vehicle shook. Xiao Lingyu was knocked forward, and her forehead hit the handle. It was bruised.

Xiao Lingyu felt like cursing. Yesterday, she was robbed. Then, her robbers got into a car accident. Until now, she had no idea if they survived or not. She didn’t ask since it was not her business. Today, her tricycle was rear-ended, and she was injured because of it.

In an instant, a wave of anger surged up in her heart.

She got down from the tricycle. When she saw Li Yuanhang walking over, she scolded, “Sir, what is the meaning of this? Do you know how to drive?”

When Li Yuanhang saw Xiao Lingyu as she turned around, he gasped, “It’s you?!”

“Huh?” Xiao Lingyu frowned. “Do you know me? Who are you?” She had not seen this man before. Then, she realized what was going on, “Don’t try to act chummily with me and think I’ll forgive you! You have rear-ended me. This is your fault!”

She glanced at the black car. She saw a vague silhouette of a man inside the car, but she didn’t take it to heart. She scoffed, “Do you think you’re above the law since you’re driving a limited edition Maybach?”
