Chapter 44 The First Glass Factory of Lantian!

About a week later, the factory was completed.

On the day the factory was completed, Cheng Chumo rushed down the mountain, but his foot slipped and he fell hard. He didn't care about the pain and limped to Lu Jinghe's doorstep, clutching his buttocks.

In the courtyard, Lu Jinghe was leaning against the stone table, chatting idly with Gao Yang, while Xiao Sizi chased after A Lü.

Suddenly, a thunderous knocking sound rang out.

Lu Jinghe stood up, his lips twitching slightly, and said, "Chu Mo is here."

Gao Yang covered his mouth and laughed, "So impatient? I'm afraid you've caused some trouble again that requires your intervention."

Lu Jinghe opened the door, flicked Cheng Chumo's head, and laughed, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

"I banged on someone's door and broke it."

This courtyard was found for Lu Jinghe and his group by Zheng Rentai. Although Lu Jinghe said they wanted to stay at an inn, it was just a rumor. If Zheng Rentai really let Lu Jinghe and his group stay at an inn, then all the years he had served as an official would have been for nothing.

Regardless of whether Lu Jinghe and the others would have any objections, he couldn't do it this way.

Every bit of good impression you can leave is important.

"So what if it's broken? Let my dad pay for it!"

Cheng Chumo patted his chest, he didn't care at all. His mind was full of thoughts about the glass factory, and he dreamed of a bright future where he would be promoted, take his brothers to Miaoyufang for drinks and entertainment.

"Is the factory building finished?" Lu Jinghe could guess the general idea from Cheng Chumo's excited appearance.

"It's finished! It's finished! All the workers have been recruited; they were recruited from the original miners."

"I've seen it all. Old Zheng is a really good worker. He spent a week selecting people, and they were all exceptionally capable."

Lu Jinghe looked up at the sky; the sun was setting. He said, "It's getting late. Let's go tomorrow."

It only takes about one night.

"Okay, I'll go back and inform the miners to take a rest."

As he spoke, Cheng Chumo was about to run up the mountain when Lu Jinghe quickly grabbed him and said, "Hurry up, you just fell."

Why are you limping?

"I fell." Cheng Chumo scratched his head sheepishly and laughed.

A second-generation military general accidentally injured himself; if Cheng Yaojin heard about this, he would skin him alive.

"Go back and rest. Tell Zheng Rentai to send someone he trusts to inform them."

"Alright, I'll be going then, Brother Lu." Cheng Chumo responded, took a few steps back, and then suddenly shouted, "Brother Lu, you and your wife should get some rest! I won't disturb you any longer!"

"You son of a bitch!" Lu Jinghe wanted to kick Cheng Chumo as soon as he heard that, but even with the tumor, the kid was still fast on his feet and dashed away a long way.

Lu Jinghe shook his head, and as soon as he returned to the courtyard, he met Gao Yang's smiling eyes.

A slight smile played on her lips as she asked, "How are you going to rest with me?"

Gao Yang's voice was languid, yet undeniably alluring, and she drew out the last syllable.

Lu Jinghe's face darkened. Gao Yang was getting more and more audacious. She was finding all sorts of ways to sneak into his bed every day, and her hands and feet were always restless. Every time it came to the crucial moment, she would blink her innocent big eyes and say, "Wait until the wedding."

"I'll say it again, wait until your wedding day."

I've been single for two lifetimes, so a few more days won't make a difference.

How much can he suppress it? He's a Celestial Master with cultivation; would he be attracted by mere physical beauty?

Don't be ridiculous, he just fell in love with Gao Yang's soul.

"Hmph." Gao Yang snorted softly, leaned close to Lu Jinghe's ear, and breathed hotly, "I'll say those words to you verbatim, so don't beg for mercy."

"Begging for mercy?" Lu Jinghe scoffed. Regardless of whether his cultivation was just for show, even if he were just a mortal, Gao Yang would still be no match for him.

Does he really think his two lifetimes of being single were for nothing? He has plenty of strength and means!

Gao Yang raised an eyebrow, his eyes darting around, and called out, "Sizi, A-Lu, it's getting late, it's time to rest!"

After saying that, he turned around and walked into the house with light steps, clearly very happy, skipping and hopping.

"Brother, Shizi still wants to play with A-Lu..." Little Sizi slowly ran over, climbed onto Lu Jinghe, and looked pitiful.

"Be a good boy, Sizi. How about your brother takes you up the mountain to play tomorrow?"

"Okay, okay!" As soon as Si Zi heard that she was going out to play, she immediately stopped being sad, hugged A Lü, and ran back to her room.

The courtyard quieted down. Standing there, looking at the half-closed door of my house, I felt a headache coming on.

No need to guess, Gao Yang is definitely going to cause trouble again.

That brat really needs to be taught a lesson. I'll avenge her on her wedding day!

Lu Jinghe took a deep breath and pushed open the door.

As soon as Lu Jinghe opened the door, he saw Gao Yang lying on her side on the bed, one hand supporting her head, the other hand gently lifting the hem of her clothes, her slender waist barely concealed, very alluring.

And her collar, which she had unbuttoned at some point, revealed a delicate collarbone, as smooth as jade.

She looked up at Lu Jinghe and whispered, "My lord~"

Lu Jinghe nearly fell over upon hearing Gao Yang's words. What was Gao Yang saying? Did she think he was a courtesan?! And call himself "husband"?

Didn't he just mention his past life's cosplay during a casual chat during the day?

"My lord, come quickly!"

"Every time you come to Miaoyufang, you only come to see me, but you only drink and compose poetry with me."

"Didn't...didn't you ever think that I, Li Zhaoning, should belong to you alone?"

Gao Yang lowered her eyes, her eyebrows trembling slightly. When she looked up again, her eyes were filled with moisture, and her voice became softer and more alluring.

"Zhao Ning is still a courtesan. So many people in this brothel are watching me day and night, wanting to style my hair..."

""

"But I won't!" Gao Yang suddenly looked up, staring blankly at Lu Jinghe, and whispered, "I only want you..."

""

"My lord..." Gao Yang got off the bed, walked quickly towards Lu Jinghe, put his arm around his waist, and kept rubbing his fingertips against Lu Jinghe's back. His voice was so soft that it was almost dripping with tenderness.

"My lord, are you truly so heartless? So cruel as to watch me decay and wither away in this dusty world!"

"Are you going to force a smile at those fat, spoiled brats every day?!"

"I want to be yours, to warm your bed at night and grind ink for you during the day..."

"I only want to serve Jinghe and you!" Gao Yang suddenly shouted, then lowered his voice to a whisper, "I never want to smile at anyone else again..."

'

"Ah..." Lu Jinghe stood there, stunned. He felt his chest was already wet; Gao Yang was really crying.

This girl, she gets into character so quickly? Even the stars in her past lives couldn't cry this fast. You have to admit, she grew up in the imperial harem.

And where did she get all these words? Did she come up with them herself?

How should he respond? He's never acted before.

"My lord... I... I'm sorry, Zhao Ning shouldn't have said those things. It's Zhao Ning's fault for putting you in such a difficult position. I'll go make you some tea right away..."

"Damn it!" Lu Jinghe cursed, he was starting to not want to wait for the wedding.

Lu Jinghe swept his arms across and picked Gao Yang up in his arms.

"Ouch! What are you doing!"

"Where are your hands? Waiting for the wedding! Waaaaah, waiting for the wedding!"
