Chapter 518: Chapter 518

"You cheeky bugger, oh man, you're killing me with laughter! Stop your yapping and just follow me if you're coming!"

Xiang Wenxin couldn't help but laugh out loud, her smile captivatingly charming as it stirred emotions, her bright eyes shining even more, and her enticing décolletage trembling.

On their journey, Liu Zhizhong's occasional subtle humor and dry wit did indeed make her quite happy.

This man, who was very good at winning women over, made her think that Feng Xiaoyue, that wretched woman, might not be able to resist him, perhaps even having an affair with him. After all, Liu Zhizhong was both handsome and strong, incomparable to the invalid confined to his bed!

So, Liu Zhizhong ended up walking by Xiang Wenxin's side again, setting foot on the somewhat desolate dirt path.

At the end of the dirt path, there was a dense wire fence, truly carrying signs banning entry, stating that the area ahead was undeveloped and contained unidentified potential dangers. It warned tourists to stop for their safety and prohibited climbing over the fence, as doing so would be at their own risk. Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹·𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲·𝗻𝗲𝘁

The fence was very high, about four to five meters, with a particularly spiky top. Presumably, even adventure-seeking men and women wouldn't attempt to climb it, stopping in their tracks instead.

At the end of the road, atop the wire fence, there was indeed a steel bar gate with a rather large brass lock on it.

Inside the gate, there was a path overgrown with weeds, winding towards the distance, vanishing into a stand of tall pines and cypresses.

Liu Zhizhong stood beside the gate, looking at the scene inside. Xiang Wenhua was probably still hiding from the world deeper inside, wasn't he?

This guy was really harsh on himself! Heartbroken by love, hurting himself like that?

Of course, the scenery here was beautiful; the environment was deep and secluded, so quiet that only the sound of birds and cicadas could be heard. Indeed, it was suitable for a reclusive life.

"How do we get in here? Should I call your brother and tell him his sister is here, so he can come open the gate?" Liu Zhizhong said this with a bit of mischief, making Xiang Wenxin laugh again.

She pursed her red lips and said, "That won't be necessary; I have the key."

"Ah? You actually... well, okay, I get it, no problem..."

Xiang Wenxin indeed took out a sturdy-looking key from her stylish little waist bag, as long as a lighter and made of substantial material.

She quickly unlocked the door, pushed it open, and both she and Liu Zhizhong entered.

Then, Xiang Wenxin locked the door again from the inside and said, "There we go, follow me. It's about a kilometer or two more, and we'll see my brother."

"That far? This place..." Liu Zhizhong looked around and nodded, "It's quite vast indeed! If it were developed for tourism, it would be quite nice."

"That's impossible to develop."

"Because my brother lives here!"

What else can you say?

This is the real powerful family!

A lovesick son from my house needs to live secluded in a 5A scenic spot, so you all can forget about developing it, is that the message?

"Why are you silent now? You silver thief, weren't you quite the chatterbox?" Xiang Wenxin walked while laughing and looking at Liu Zhizhong.

Liu Zhizhong touched his chin and shook his head, "What else can I say? I'm just a small fry, honored to step into a private territory . Longfeng Mountain is 5A, your brother must be at least 6A."

Xiang Wenxin burst into laughter, punching Liu Zhizhong's shoulder, "You cheeky bugger, can't you stop being so funny when you talk?"

Liu Zhizhong actually enjoyed it, rubbing the spot where he was hit on his shoulder and said with feigned grievance, "I'm just stating the facts, and you hit me. It's too painful... Such a heavy punch, have you been training?"
