Follow the army to the island, the rebellious male protagonist was led by me to counterattack

Is Chapter 297 reasonable?

Painkillers?
It was a large dose.

No wonder my back and legs didn't hurt after drinking the water.

"Your technique is quite good. Where did you learn it?"

Once a person starts talking, there's nothing they can't say.

The Holy Lord was originally a petty thief who learned to steal skillfully and lived a good life.

But one failure would be the end for him.

Hunted by a group of people, he had to change his appearance and escape by following a group of ascetics.

Then he discovered that ascetics were highly respected and saw an opportunity to make money.

As for Huang Xiong, he was his primary target, and he spent more than a year planning to target him.

Things suddenly became clear.

Shi Xia carried the Holy Lord towards the door.

"What are you doing? You said you'd let me go!"

With a bang, the door opened.

Huang Xiong was standing outside the door.

Huang Xiong's ferocity resurfaced.

As for why he came, it was because an eagle delivered a message to him, saying that his son had been summoned by the Holy Lord.

So here he is.

Huang Xiong arrived at the perfect time, just in time to hear the Holy Lord's confession.

If they had come before the confession, they might have stopped Shi Xia from doing this. Devout believers cannot be reasoned with.

After Huang Doudou saw her father in the cupboard, she stopped hiding.

"Old man, I told you long ago he was a fraud!"

Huang Xiong looked embarrassed and coughed lightly.

Huang Doudou walked over maturely, took Shi Xia's hand and said, "Dad, let me formally introduce you. This is my master sister. You must respect my master from now on!"

“My master has no other hobbies but likes to handle gold. We plan to visit your vault when we get back.”

Huang Xiong stared at Huang Doudou and couldn't resist shooting him in the head.

"You brat, how dare you talk to your father like that!"

Huang Doudou covered her head and backed away.

"Hmph, you deserve to be swindled out of everything by this Holy Lord, I won't even sweep your grave!"

Huang Xiong: You are truly my good son!
Huang Xiong will handle the rest himself. Shi Xia left with Huang Doudou.

Instead of going home, the two decided to wander around the city.

Try out the local delicacies and enjoy the scenery.

Huang Doudou doesn't come out often, partly because he's too young, and partly because people always want to kidnap him.

It's because his family is too rich!
Fortunately, Xia was there sometimes, and anyone with bad ideas was brought down. Huang Doudou was so impressed that he was tired of saying "I admire you" to him. He was definitely a little fanboy.

The two played until dark before heading back.

When they got back, they found that Huang Xiong had changed his clothes and there was meat on the table again. Huang Xiong was eating a whole bowl of meat by himself.

They're so hungry!
Shi Xia whispered in Huang Doudou's ear, "I suspect your father ate meat in the middle of the night."

"I think so."

Huang Xiong: Can you two cricketers please carry your loads a little?

The next day, Huang Xiong prepared a sumptuous breakfast to express his gratitude to Shi Xia, who had saved them once again.

"Miracle doctor, what brings you here today?"

Without the Holy Lord's brainwashing methods, Huang Xiong's intelligence returned to normal.

"The fabric I bought last time is ready. I'd like you to help me pick it up and sell it."

Huang Xiong thought for a moment.

"So I buy the fabric with my own money, transport it back myself, sell it, and then give you the money."

"Correct."

"Is this reasonable?"

Shi Xia didn't answer, but looked at Huang Doudou next to her and asked, "Do you think this is reasonable?"

"It makes sense! How can it not make sense, Dad!"

Huang Xiong looked at the two of them, wondering what else he could do but agree.

"Okay, I will arrange it."

In short, Shi Xia settled down here with peace of mind and actually began teaching Huang Doudou some basic self-defense techniques.

Huang Xiong is efficient and decisive; his boss-like demeanor has returned.

He contacted the Chinese side, arranged for a cargo ship to collect the goods, and brought them back.

Upon returning, Huang Xiong examined the quality of the fabric; it was all high-grade and excellent.

He decided to keep it for himself, intending to resell it for a higher price.

Shi Xia doesn't care, as long as everyone is doing well, that's what really matters.

There's nothing wrong with achieving a win-win situation.

Shi Xia converted all the payments into gold. On the day she left, Huang Doudou cried her eyes out.

"Sister, when will you come again?"

"You're short of money, aren't you?"

A single sentence diluted the somber atmosphere.

"Then I'll save up and wait for you."

"can."

Shi Xia returned with the gold.

Most of the gold was hidden away, but Shi Xia took ten pieces back with her.

It's about a quarter the size of a brick.

She arrived home late at night, and Wen Chengan woke up alertly, only to be slapped down by Shi Xia.

"it's me."

"young married woman!"

Wen Cheng'an went from defensive to coquettish in less than half a second, hugging Shi Xia's waist and rubbing his face against it.

"I miss you so much!"

"I miss you as well."

Shi Xia touched her head, cupped Wen Cheng'an's face in her hands, and kissed him hard.

"It's your reward."

"not enough!"

Wen Chengan chased after him and kissed him.

"I haven't washed yet—"

Not important anymore.

After some exercise, Shi Xia and Wen Cheng'an lay on the bed, looking at the ten gold bars on the bed.

"so much?"

"A lot? It seems Comrade Wen's vision needs improvement."

"Isn't that enough?"

"Of course not many, I've hidden most of them."

Wen Chengan tilted his head curiously.

"Wife, how many good things do you have?"

"Sorry, no comment."

Wen Cheng'an smiled helplessly and hugged Shi Xia tightly.

"You're so cute."

Shi Xia pushed away Wen Cheng'an, that idiot, and said, "Only you think I'm cute."

The next day, Wen Chengan went to morning training in high spirits. Xue Gang and Zhou Yusheng knew Shi Xia had returned as soon as they saw his gait.

"Boss Shi Xia is back?"

"Can you two stop calling Shi Xia 'boss'? She's Li Erniu's boss, not yours."

As soon as Li Erniu was mentioned, Xue Gang immediately said that something had happened.

"It seems like Li Erniu has a girlfriend."

Wen Cheng'an wasn't interested in gossip, but he still wanted to hear about Li Erniu's gossip so he could tell Shi Xia when he got back.

"Did you see it, or did you hear it from someone?"

"From what I've heard, it seems that at the last social gathering, Li Erniu met a primary school teacher, and the two have been in contact ever since."

Wen Chengan took note of this and planned to ask about it today.

On the other side, Shi Xia took a nap after returning home.

After waking up, he picked up a few red bricks in the room, hollowed them out, and hid the gold bars inside.

Then everything returned to normal.

These gold bars are for emergencies; she can't go to sea every time she needs something.

At noon, Wen Chengan came back to deliver lunch and also told him about Li Erniu.

"What? You're getting married?"

"The relationship report and marriage report were submitted together."

Shi Xia raised an eyebrow.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Could it be that you've made some kind of fundamental mistake?"

Wen Cheng'an said speechlessly, "No, Erniu is already twenty-five, it's time for him to get married."

Shi Xia thought in confusion: Is it that big already?

"Okay, shall we have a wedding then?"

"They should be able to arrange it, and they'll give him a few days of wedding leave."

Shi Xia thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll go back and help out."
