"Fan Kai, pay up." Zhao Wanting ordered Fan Kai.

Zhao Wanting's father, Zhao Qihua, ran a listed group in Tianhai. Two years ago, Zhao Qihua had an accident, and it was Fan Kai who saved his life. Since then, Fan Kai has been working at Zhao Qihua's group, performing exceptionally well and earning Zhao Qihua's high regard. After discussing with his wife, Zhao Qihua decided to make Fan Kai the son-in-law of the Zhao family, and the marriage was arranged.

Of course, Zhao Wanting had protested this decision multiple times, but her parents rejected her objections. As the wedding day approached, Zhao Wanting had planned to run away from home.

However, three months ago, Zhao Qihua suddenly fell into a coma and has not regained consciousness. Even many famous doctors in Tianhai were at a loss. This sudden event made Zhao Wanting abandon her plan to run away.

She heard that sometimes extraordinary people appeared in the black market for medicinal herbs. With a hopeful heart, Zhao Wanting came to look around. After a thorough search, she did not find anyone special. Just as she was about to leave in disappointment, she saw Ye Chenfeng using silver needles to save someone, which gave her hope again. She had a strong premonition that Ye Chenfeng was the one who could save her father.

Fan Kai usually spent the Zhao family's money. Before Zhao Qihua fell into a coma, he had given Fan Kai a million-yuan check. Therefore, Zhao Wanting felt no guilt in asking Fan Kai to pay, knowing that the money was from the Zhao family, not Fan Kai's.

Fan Kai's face was very grim. He had just seen his fiancée being held in the arms of a stranger, and now he was being asked to pay for this stranger. He felt extremely humiliated.

Thinking that it was not the right time to confront Zhao Wanting, Fan Kai suppressed his anger, forced a slight smile, and took out 50,000 yuan in cash from his black leather bag, handing it to the honest stall owner.

The honest stall owner took the money and kept thanking Ye Chenfeng, which made Fan Kai even more depressed. He thought, "Is this country bumpkin blind? I'm the one who gave the money! Why is he thanking him instead of me?"

"Hey, I'm the one who gave you the money. Are you thanking the wrong person?" Fan Kai said arrogantly.

The honest stall owner looked at the well-dressed Fan Kai, scratched his head, and said, "It wasn't you who bought my stuff. Why should I thank you?"

Fan Kai almost choked on the honest stall owner's words. His neck veins bulged, and his face turned red with frustration.

The honest stall owner handed the bag containing the Yunteng mushrooms to Ye Chenfeng and said, "I really appreciate it. My name is Tieniu, and I will definitely repay you."

Tieniu kept thanking Ye Chenfeng, believing that Ye Chenfeng bought the Yunteng mushrooms to help him, so it was not an exaggeration to call Ye Chenfeng his benefactor.

In fact, Ye Chenfeng had a great deal. The Yunteng mushrooms were invaluable to him, and he had bought five of them for just 50,000 yuan. With these five Yunteng mushrooms, Ye Chenfeng could likely break through to the third level of soul power.

Ye Chenfeng waved his hand and said, "Tieniu, I'm Ye Chenfeng. Give me your address. I have some medical skills, and if I have the chance to visit your place, I will come to see you."

The reason Ye Chenfeng wanted Tieniu's address was that he needed to find the exact location where the Yunteng mushrooms grew. The vastness of the primeval forest made it very difficult to find the exact location, and since Tieniu's father had discovered the Yunteng mushrooms, he would remember their location.

Tieniu took out a piece of white paper and wrote a series of characters, each one written in a wobbly manner, barely legible.

Tieniu smiled and said, "My handwriting isn't good. My father taught me how to write."

After putting away Tieniu's address, Ye Chenfeng chatted with Tieniu for a few more minutes and then told him to take the money and quickly go see his father.

After saying goodbye to Tieniu, Ye Chenfeng finished browsing the remaining stalls in the black market. Although his luck did not strike again, he was very satisfied with today's harvest. He also made up his mind to personally visit the primeval forest at the border in the future.

The Yunteng mushrooms he bought from Tieniu had been away from the soil for too long, or else Ye Chenfeng could have tried to cultivate them. The Yunteng mushrooms were not just for enhancing strength; Ye Chenfeng wanted to find their exact location to transplant and cultivate them outside.

"Sir, can you come to my home now to see my father's condition?" Zhao Wanting saw that Ye Chenfeng was about to leave the black market and immediately showed an excited expression.

Ye Chenfeng nodded and said, "Sure, but don't call me sir. It sounds really awkward, like you think I'm an old man."

Hearing this, Zhao Wanting couldn't help but smile slightly and asked, "Then what should I call you?"

As Ye Chenfeng and Zhao Wanting chatted warmly, Fan Kai watched with a face like he was constipated, his eyes always glaring at Ye Chenfeng.

Ye Chenfeng's senses were extremely sharp. His intuition told him that Fan Kai was very sinister and not a good person. He couldn't understand why a beautiful and popular woman like Zhao Wanting would have such a fiancé. He couldn't help but feel it was not worth it for her.

"You can call me Chenfeng or Fengge, whatever you like." Ye Chenfeng said with a teasing tone.

Zhao Wanting's cheeks turned slightly red. To be honest, she and Ye Chenfeng were not familiar. If it weren't for his impressive medical skills, she wouldn't have approached him. She had never been so close to any man before.

"Stay away from my fiancée. See this? My fists don't have eyes." Fan Kai showed his so-called "wok-sized" fists in front of Ye Chenfeng.

Ye Chenfeng said indifferently, "You said she's your fiancée? But you two aren't married yet, so don't make a fuss in front of me."

As they spoke, Ye Chenfeng and the others had already reached the outside of the black market. Four burly men blocked their way. Behind them, Ye Chenfeng saw the middle-aged stall owner who had been selling fake thousand-year-old ginseng in the black market.

"Think you can just leave like that?" The middle-aged man was unhappy that Ye Chenfeng had exposed his fake goods in public. Otherwise, he might have made a few deals.
