Returning to 84, hunting for wealth, one person feeding three families.

Just as everyone was discussing, Tian Xiaohui slowly walked over with Qian Jiali and Luo Ling.

Instantly, the three became the focus of the entire audience.

The village women surrounded the three of them and offered their congratulations.

"My three younger sisters are truly enviable. They've found someone as talented as Ye Chen; they'll probably be able to live a life of luxury from now on."

"Some people in the village were gossiping about Ye Chen before. In my opinion, those people are simply blind. Ye Chen is someone who doesn't speak up until he makes a stunning statement."

"Aunt Li, you've really gotten yourself into trouble now. I remember you were the one who talked the most about Ye Chen back then."

The women in the village are the most mercenary; when you're down on your luck, they'll want to belittle you until you're worthless.

If you really become successful, they'll immediately flock to you and praise you like a flower.

Tian Xiaohui knew these women's personalities well, so she sneered and responded.

"My Ye Chen isn't anything special, he's just a stubborn guy. He hears a lot of gossip, so he's naturally full of resentment. If he doesn't become successful, he feels uneasy even when he sleeps."

"Ladies, now that we've finished our idle chatter, if I were you, I'd be going back to give my husbands a piece of my mind."

"Maybe if we scold them a lot, the men in the family will become more capable and successful, just like Ye Chen."

These few words, though devoid of any vulgar language, cut like a soft knife, causing excruciating pain.

The women who had initially been watching the spectacle suddenly turned grim, wishing they could devour Tian Xiaohui whole.

Tian Xiaohui didn't care about all that; these people were always looking to make fun of others.

Now that they've finally achieved some success, who will give them face?

He immediately pulled Qian Jiali and Luo Ling towards the courtyard.

"Hmph, Ye Chen is truly blind; how could he have fallen for these three women?"

"That's right, but to be honest, these three women are all Ye Chen's ex-wives, so who knows if others might have a chance."

"Now that you mention it, I just remembered. I have a niece who's about the same age as Ye Chen. If she could marry Ye Chen, she'd be living a life of luxury."

For a moment, the women huddled together and whispered among themselves.

As they were talking, they saw Ye Chen walking over with Tian Cong. The group's eyes lit up and they immediately surrounded him.

"Ye Chen, you're really something! Nobody in Shuangshu Village has ever built a three-story house before, you're the first!"

"Ye Chen, your aunt is just worried about you. You don't have a wife now, do you? Have you ever thought about finding someone else?"

"Ye Chen, do you want a wife? Just nod your head, and Auntie will bring her to you this afternoon!"

Everyone was talking at once, all trying to get their hands on Ye Chen.

However, he didn't hold back at all, and every word he said reached the ears of Tian Xiaohui and the other two women.

Such behavior is practically blatant face-to-face attack!

"Cough cough..."

Seeing that Tian Xiaohui and the other two women's faces darkened, Ye Chen coughed lightly, interrupting everyone's voices.

After his rebirth, Ye Chen went through a lot of effort to finally ease the tensions with the three women.

He was about to be surrounded by women and live a good life.

How could a bunch of busybodies ruin everything?

Ye Chen reacted quickly, immediately declaring his loyalty: "Aunties, you flatter me. I, Ye Chen, not only have wives, but three of them."

"I've made up my mind. I'll never marry another woman again. Taking good care of the three women in my family is my biggest wish."

"You bunch of blabbermouths! When Ye Chen was powerless, you never said a good word for him. Now that he's powerful, how dare you fawn over him?"

Seeing Ye Chen's attitude, Tian Cong spoke up even more forcefully.

"What does Ye Chen building a house have to do with you? Just watch the show, then leave!"

As he spoke, Tian Cong immediately kicked people out on the spot.

The group of middle-aged women felt embarrassed and eventually dispersed.

Seeing that the problem was solved, Ye Chen approached Tian Xiaohui and the other two women and said, as if to take credit.

"My three ladies, what I said just now, was it acceptable?"

Luo Ling raised an eyebrow and teased, "You do have a conscience, that's what you said, but you're just too ugly."

Qian Jiali covered her mouth and chuckled, then gave Ye Chen a flirtatious wink.

Unconsciously, the relationship between the two became much closer, as if they had returned to their honeymoon days.

……

Private room in a nightclub.

Mr. Zheng's face was gloomy. Upon hearing that Wang Jian'an had been sent to prison, Mr. Zheng felt extremely angry.

"I just took out my life savings to invest, and then Wang Jian'an got into trouble. What a coincidence!"

"Is Wang Jianan playing tricks on me, deliberately doing this?"

"Boss Zheng, you're joking. Our boss didn't expect this to happen either. He's clearly been wronged."

Wang Jian'an's confidant, Zheng Tao, spoke up to ease the tension, explaining the whole story to reassure Boss Zheng.

"So, according to you, someone is deliberately targeting Boss Wang? Do you have anyone you suspect?" Boss Zheng was an old hand at this, and he quickly believed what the other party said.

The most urgent task is to find out who is the mastermind behind this.

If this person can be identified, Wang Jian'an might still be saved.

Zheng Tao frowned and pondered for a moment, then said uncertainly, "Boss Zheng, if we really have to say who's targeting me, I think Ye Chen is the most likely candidate."

"This kid robbed Boss Wang's shop on Factory Street. Boss Wang wanted to retaliate, but the kid was lucky and was rescued by the police."

"No sooner had this incident happened than Boss Wang was sent to jail. I really can't think of anyone else besides Ye Chen."

"Ye Chen?" Upon hearing this name, Boss Zheng clenched his fist, feeling a sense of familiarity.

Suddenly, he froze, and asked, "Is there a woman named Qian Jiali with that kid named Ye Chen?"

"Boss Zheng, how did you know? Do you know this Ye Chen?" Zheng Tao asked suspiciously.

Boss Zheng has only been in the county town for three days at most.

Logically speaking, it's impossible for him to know Ye Chen, so how could he know the other woman's name?

"That's right, it's because of this kid that I had to give up the business in Cat Village!"

Seeing that he had guessed correctly, Boss Zheng slammed his fist on the table and said fiercely.

Just as they were about to recount their feud, a familiar voice suddenly came from outside the private room.

"Boss, we're back!"

Previously, Boss Zheng had fled to the county town to seek refuge. At the same time, to prevent any accidents from happening, he specially arranged for two of his underlings to return to Mao'er Village to scout out the situation.

Now, the two have finally returned.

Seeing the two men looking travel-worn, Boss Zheng quickly asked, "Tell me, what happened in Cat Village?"

"Has our operation been exposed?"

"Boss, something terrible has happened." The underling took a breath before telling him the truth.

"That kid named Ye Chen got into a conflict with Liu Zhen, the village chief's son. I heard the whole village is looking for him."

"Furthermore, I've heard a secret: Ye Chen seems to have discovered some treasure in the woods, and then disappeared without a trace once he left the forest. Liu Zhen is frantically searching for him!"
