Siheyuan: I am a trader in both worlds!

Chapter 466 Ice Cream

Bai Ling was truly impressed by Ximen Lang!

Before she left, she specifically told him to just stay home and play games. She told him to wait patiently for her to come back, and that once she was back, he could do whatever he wanted, and she would accompany him.

But no sooner had she left than Ximen Lang slipped out!

Even the four bodyguards she specially stayed behind to watch over Ximen Lang couldn't stop him. You're just talking nonsense!
Therefore, Bai Ling was completely stunned when she learned that Ximen Lang had slipped away and was reporting the situation to her superiors.

Fearing that Ximen Lang might accidentally cause some big news, Bai Ling hurriedly drove back without even finishing her report and briefly explaining the situation to everyone.

Then, she bumped into the Four Heavenly Kings, who didn't even dare to raise their heads.

Seeing that the four usually arrogant and domineering men were now so timid that they didn't even dare to look her in the eye.

She was so angry that she blurted out something.

"You guys always act all high and mighty, but you can't even keep an eye on one person! Useless!"

"We stopped them."

"You stopped him? If you stopped him, how did he get out?!"

We couldn't stop them.

"Isn't that still the same?! What's wrong with me calling you all useless?!"

After saying that, he saw that Zhang Long and Zhao Hu looked frustrated and wanted to say something more.

"Tell me, tell me, let's see what you can come up with today!"

With just one sentence, he made all the words that Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, and the other two powerful figures had been holding back get stuck in their throats.

They could only silently accept that the four of them were caught in the middle between the two great gods and suffer the consequences, and honestly admitted their mistake to Bai Ling.

Knowing that the matter couldn't be entirely blamed on them, they didn't argue with the Four Heavenly Kings or continue to pester them.

After giving the Four Heavenly Kings a thorough dressing-down and venting her anger, Bai Ling followed their directions and went inside.

Then, she ran into Li Huaide, who was obsessed with flattering Ximen Lang.

Seeing that Li Huaide was a sycophant, no matter what Ximen Lang did, he would rush to say that Ximen Lang did a good job, did a wonderful job, and did a fantastic job!
By simply painting a white face, one can seamlessly transition to playing a villain on stage.

I glanced again at Simon Lang inside, who was happily fiddling with ice cream, cursing this and that.

As Bai Ling spent more and more time with Ximen Lang, her temper, which had been spoiled by everyone, grew even more intense, and she directly scolded him.

"What's so good about it?! Don't you even look at the weather?! It's so cold, and you're making so much ice cream, the soldiers will definitely get stomach aches tomorrow!"

Hearing this, Ximen Lang and Li Huaide, who were busy inside, were immediately jolted awake.

Looking up in the direction of the sound, he saw that it was indeed Bai Ling.

And Bai Ling was extremely angry, in the rage of her anger.

Li Huaide, who had just been fawning over Ximen Lang, immediately became obedient.

Not only did they become obedient, they even completely changed their stance.

In order to prevent Bai Ling from making his already negative opinion of him even worse, Li Huaide immediately switched from fawning over Ximen Lang to fawning over Bai Ling.

Wow, that was such a smooth shift in stance.

They immediately sided with Bai Ling.

Picking up where Bai Ling left off, he began to echo her words.

"Director Bai is right, Director Bai is right. It's late autumn now, and the weather is getting cooler. If the soldiers eat so much cold food all at once, they'll definitely get stomach aches, which will affect the unit's combat effectiveness. If that's the case, Brother Lang's actions are indeed a bit ill-considered." Upon hearing this, Ximen Lang's gaze immediately sharpened, and he wished he could skin him alive.

Seeing that even the big spender was angry with Ximen Lang, and knowing that he couldn't afford to offend Bai Ling, and equally couldn't afford to offend Ximen Lang, Li Huaide quickly tried to make amends.

"Of course, Lang-ge'er's intention to let the soldiers eat better is definitely not wrong! After all, there are so many good things right here! It's impossible to say that Lang-ge'er didn't think about them!"

Just as Ximen Lang's expression eased slightly, Bai Ling's face turned ugly again.

This put Li Huaide in a very difficult position, and he could only follow in the footsteps of the Four Heavenly Kings. Realizing that he was also a punching bag caught between the two men and that he would definitely suffer if he stayed there, Li Huaide decisively put his hands together and begged the two men for mercy.

Using a stomachache as an excuse, he scurried off to meet up with the four dejected men who were sitting by the roadside.

Then he fell silent.

With Li Huaide no longer serving as a punching bag and caught in the middle, both Ximen Lang and Bai Ling became much less aggressive.

Especially Bai Ling.

After all, she just didn't want Ximen Lang to cause any more trouble; she didn't really want to be his adversary.

Besides, Ximen Lang didn't do anything outrageous.

So, I was a little annoyed, but not much.

Soon, Bai Ling's expression softened.

Bai Ling's expression softened, not to mention Xi Menlang's.

Although he was indeed assertive in his words and actions before coming here, saying that if he wanted to have a go at Bai Ling, then he wanted to have a go at Bai Ling, which was quite domineering.

He might not want to confront Bai Ling, but he still doesn't want to.

Even if a confrontation were unavoidable, he would prefer it to happen at night, not now.

Therefore, they greeted us with a smile.

Seeing that Bai Ling had no intention of causing him trouble, Ximen Lang immediately greeted her with a smile.

I made a bowl of ice cream and handed it to Bai Ling, letting her taste it to see if it was salty enough.

While Bai Ling was enjoying his cooking, Ximen Lang explained.

“When I came here last time, a veteran asked me a question. The Americans are always talking about ice cream. They would even send out their best planes just for a taste of ice cream. They’re really extravagant.”

"He asked me what ice cream was, whether I had ever eaten it, and if I could tell him what it tasted like. I felt really bad when I heard that."

"So today I specially made so much ice cream, not only to let our soldiers taste what ice cream tastes like, but also to show them with practical actions that what the Americans can do, we can do too, and we are absolutely no worse than them!"

His words were inspiring to anyone who heard them, and they were in line with the mainstream of the times, so that Bai Ling immediately gave up on causing trouble for Ximen Lang.

Since they're not going to cause trouble for Ximen Lang anymore, they should at least try his cooking.

Then, Bai Ling fell in love with the cool, refreshing, and sweet taste of ice cream.

I couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"No wonder Americans love ice cream so much, it really is delicious."

The harmonious scene left the Four Heavenly Kings and Li Huaide speechless.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Bai Ling immediately began laying the groundwork for the next batch of personnel to exchange and learn.
