Chapter 23

When Secretary Wang asked, Liu Yuxuan was also a bit confused. He really didn't know what the old man who taught him Tai Chi did. Although they had interacted for a few years, Liu Yuxuan had asked the old man twice, but he never said anything, and Liu Yuxuan didn't ask again after that. The old man just said that he liked his character and that he didn't act like other kids who always thought about riding horses and playing with eagles.

"I really don't know," Liu Yuxuan shook his head and said.

"Alright, you'll know in a few days. Dinner should be ready, let's go eat," Secretary Wang looked at Liu Yuxuan mysteriously and said.

Having just recovered from a serious illness, the food tasted especially good. The nanny beside him was stunned. Since it was Liu Yuxuan's first time coming to Building No. 1, the nanny didn't recognize him. Seeing this fair-skinned young man eat three bowls of rice and still not be full, she hurriedly went to the kitchen to cook another pot of rice.

"Uncle, Aunt, I'm sorry to embarrass you. I haven't eaten properly for a few days, and this meal has finally filled me up," Liu Yuxuan said apologetically after eating six bowls of rice. Since he started practicing boxing, his appetite had indeed increased. Plus, after waking up in the hospital, the doctor didn't allow him to eat much, only some porridge, so he was particularly happy with this dinner.

"Being able to eat is a blessing. Minghua and Mingyuan are always out entertaining, and they eat very little when they come home, just a bit of cat food. Are you full? Do you want more?" Liu Yuxuan's eating style made Chen Wanrong, Wang Minghua's mother, very pleased. After getting to know him, she also liked this child, who was honest and unpretentious.

"This is a case of being hit by a stray bullet," Wang Minghua thought, unable to help but laugh.

After resting at Building No. 1 for a night, Liu Yuxuan drove the pickup truck back to Kaoshan Village the next day. It's worth mentioning that Wang Minghua had arranged a pass for the pickup truck to enter the family compound, saving him the trouble in the future. This was probably the first pass issued to a Great Wall pickup truck for the family compound.

Seeing Liu Yuxuan return home, the ones who were the happiest were Da Huang, Ban Li, and the three little foxes. They jumped around Liu Yuxuan, like spoiled children. Especially Xiao Hong, who climbed up his leg and onto his shoulder. For some reason, the three little foxes had been at the Liu family for almost three months, but they hadn't grown much. The two smaller ones were still about 20 centimeters long, but their fur was smoother.

"Well, I'm back," Liu Yuxuan said, taking Xiao Hong from his shoulder and holding her in his arms as he walked into the house.

"You don't know, the first two days were fine, but these past few days, these five little ones have been waiting at the gate every day," Zhao Yan, who had been waiting for Liu Yuxuan, said enviously.

"How are you, fatty? Have you been working hard these past few days? Is there anything happening at the company?" Liu Yuxuan asked.

"Nothing much, everything is fine. You don't know, the news has spread throughout the county. They say you know a big leader and got the county magistrate directly dealt with," Zhao Yan said with a smile.

The county was not big, and news spread quickly. Moreover, the incident was quite significant. Now, the county magistrate and his son were in prison, and other people involved from different departments were also punished. So, these rumors started.

Liu Yuxuan didn't care. He wasn't going to bully others, and they were already plotting to take his property. Was it wrong for him to give a little counterattack? Although the counterattack was a bit powerful.

When sleeping at night, Xiao Fang still slept in Liu Yuxuan's room. She insisted that Liu Yuxuan tell more stories tonight, as he owed her a lot. The three little foxes also slept on the kang, curling up with their fluffy tails covering their little heads, looking very cute. Now, these three little ones were the most popular in the village.

Liu Yuxuan had been back for several days, and life had returned to its original track. In three months, the chicken and pig farms had developed well. The free-range roosters were already over 4 pounds, and the hens would start laying eggs in about a month. The pigs in the pig farm were all over 200 pounds, with the largest one weighing about 230 pounds. The golden cabbage was also growing well, and he could contact Liu Lin to harvest the cabbage in a few days. It seemed that the days of being short of money were finally over, and he could make some money again.

"Uncle is calling, answer quickly. Uncle is calling, answer quickly." Liu Yuxuan, who had just inspected the vegetable field, received a call from Wang Mingyuan.

"Yuxuan, are you at home?" Wang Mingyuan asked after the call was connected.

"I'm in the vegetable field, is there something wrong?"

"Then hurry home. A distinguished guest is coming to visit you today, and we are almost at your place," Wang Mingyuan said.

Liu Yuxuan hung up the phone and hurried home. A guest that Wang Mingyuan called distinguished must be someone important. As he entered the village, he saw three luxury cars parked in front of his house. The first two were Mercedes S600s, and the last one was a Cadillac, which Liu Yuxuan didn't recognize. It was also a pickup truck, but it looked much more upscale, with a body height similar to Liu Yuxuan's. The black body, paired with bright silver decorations, looked very imposing.

After parking his car, the contrast made the Cadillac look even more impressive. Walking into the yard, he saw several people chatting with his parents under the grape arbor.

Liu Yuxuan carefully observed and found that he basically knew everyone. The old man talking to his parents was the one who taught him Tai Chi. Among the young people, the man was the one trapped in the sports car on the highway, and the woman he didn't recognize. There was also a man in his forties sitting there, with two people standing beside him, who looked like bodyguards. No wonder Secretary Wang smiled so mysteriously when he mentioned the old man; they were all waiting here. Wang Mingyuan was sitting on the side, smiling and winking at him. It seemed that the old man's identity was also significant.

"Hey, old man, what wind brought you here?" Liu Yuxuan was very happy to see the old man again. He treated the old man as his master.

"Yuxuan, how can you be so impolite? Don't you quickly greet Grandpa Li?" Liu Yuxuan's father scolded him, seeing his son's playful expression. He had just talked with the old man and knew that his identity was not simple. He was afraid of being impolite to the distinguished guest.

"It's fine, little brother," the old man waved his hand, as he usually interacted with Liu Yuxuan like this.

"Rascal, don't you quickly meet your savior?" The old man shouted at the young man.

"Thank you, Brother Xuan, for not holding it against me and saving our lives," the young man came to Liu Yuxuan, bowed deeply.

This made Liu Yuxuan a bit stunned. "Stop, stop, anyone would have helped. Please don't do this, I can't bear it," Liu Yuxuan quickly said.

"You can bear it. I know the whole story. You almost lost your life to save them," the old man said from the side.

"Old man, what's the situation? You have to explain it this time, right?" Liu Yuxuan had no choice but to change the topic, as he couldn't return the bow.

"I'm surnamed Li, an old man who served as a guard for the leader for a few years," the old man said, then pointed to the people beside him, "This is my son, Li Mingzhe, who does some import and export business. This good-for-nothing is my grandson, Li Xinyu, who would have lost his life if not for you. The one standing beside is my granddaughter, Li Xinyue." When he learned that the savior was Liu Yuxuan, Li Lao Ye was also very moved. He had taught him a few moves because he found him compatible, but he never expected that he would save his grandson and granddaughter.

Wang Mingyuan, listening to Li Lao Ye's introduction, almost spat out his tea. He thought, "Just a few years as a guard for the leader, who is the leader? It's Deng Gong. And doing a bit of import and export business, a company worth over a billion is called a bit of business. Is there any room left for others to live?"
