"Uncle Ye is an adult, and I know adults have their reasons for doing things. I'm just a child, and I just need to be good and listen. There's no need to ask so many questions. Uncle Ye, I have to trust your choices because you saved my life. From now on, I'll listen to everything you say, okay?"
This child is truly endearing. Whether a child is good-looking or not is not important; the most crucial thing is obedience. Obedient children are truly charming, and Ye Tiancheng particularly likes them.
"Alright, if you're good and listen, Uncle Ye will definitely not abandon you. From now on, Uncle Ye will buy you lots of delicious food, schoolbags, clothes, anything that children should have, as long as it's not a luxury item, I can buy it for you."
This child, Liangliang, is someone he saved. Now that he has no other relatives, Ye Tiancheng imagines himself becoming a father soon, which brings him many emotions. He also wants to give this child a bright future, which is truly a great merit.
In life, one needs to make many choices. For Ye Tiancheng, perhaps at the beginning, he wanted to use his divine power to gain fame and fortune. However, as time went on, he realized that those were just fleeting glories. Fleeting glories come and go quickly, and they cannot truly leave anything behind. But the good deeds one does will never disappear.
When he first got involved in charity, it was just on someone's suggestion, thinking that doing good deeds would improve his reputation. But now, reaching this point, Ye Tiancheng has discovered that good deeds do have rewards. For example, with this orphanage, Ye Tiancheng, as an investor at the time, had no problem placing someone there. Moreover, Ye Tiancheng had significant decision-making power in this matter. This made Ye Tiancheng realize that solving problems with brute force is foolish. This current situation is much better; he can change someone's destiny with a casual command. This is actually very, very important, and Ye Tiancheng is very satisfied that he can do better.
Ye Tiancheng and Xiao Pang happily sent Xiao Liangliang to the orphanage, which solved a major problem for Xiao Liangliang and gave the child a better life. It was truly a great and good deed.
"Uncle Ye, I've done so many problems, and I'm a bit tired. Can I rest next to you for a while?"
Because Ye Tiancheng had helped him so much, Xiao Liangliang felt a deep sense of trust when facing Ye Tiancheng. That's why he leaned next to Ye Tiancheng, feeling like Ye Tiancheng's son.
"Brother Ye, I thought you weren't very popular with children. It seems I was wrong; you're actually quite popular with them."
Even Xiao Pang found it strange. Ye Tiancheng, usually, was only interested in his own children and the one in Hou Mingzhu's belly. It was unexpected to see him show affection towards other children; he was a tough guy with a soft heart, which was quite surprising.
"Naturally. Actually, I didn't feel much before, but recently I've realized more and more that I really like children. Perhaps it's because I'm going to be a father myself that I've had this realization."
Ye Tiancheng had to admit that he was becoming more fatherly lately, unlike before when he felt so carefree, as if he hadn't grown up yet and was still a child himself.
"Alright, Brother Ye, it's great that you're maturing. I'm also very happy to witness this side of you."
Xiao Pang was also quite happy, watching Ye Tiancheng change step by step, and he was there for every step of that change. He had truly transformed from a minor figure into someone with a much broader mind, becoming a significant person.
"Alright, stop being so formal. Let's not talk anymore. Xiao Liangliang has already fallen asleep. I think we should also lower our voices so the child can rest well."
Ye Tiancheng now truly had a fatherly demeanor, even knowing to tell Xiao Pang to be quiet. It was truly not easy. Later, Ye Tiancheng would indeed change step by step, not just superficially but from the heart.
After sending Xiao Liangliang to the orphanage, everything was quickly arranged. Ye Tiancheng thought everything was over and prepared to go back and get a good night's sleep. He was truly exhausted. Perhaps only a sound sleep could lift Ye Tiancheng's spirits.
Ye Tiancheng slept soundly. When he woke up, he suddenly heard a knock on the door. Upon opening it, he saw Liu Lanying. Liu Lanying's expression was very anxious, which made Ye Tiancheng realize that it was likely not good news.
"Brother Ye, it's bad! Our pigs were growing well, but I don't know what happened. Starting last night, the pigs went crazy and began to tear each other apart. It was truly terrifying; I was scared to death."
Liu Lanying was so frightened that her face had lost all color. Ye Tiancheng had to believe her; it seemed all of this was true. But why would pigs suddenly go mad? Ye Tiancheng immediately told Liu Lanying.
"I think you should call a veterinarian. It would be better to have a veterinarian, otherwise, we won't know what's wrong with the pigs. This is too strange. The pigs must have been infected by some virus."
Speaking of this, Liu Lanying became even more anxious, so much so that she couldn't stop clapping her hands. "Exactly! I thought so too, so I quickly found a veterinarian to examine them. And guess what? The veterinarian said the pigs showed no signs of illness, but they were indeed sick. They're pigs, not wolves, so why would they tear each other apart so fiercely? And they seem fearless, each pig is very terrifying."
"Alright, it seems no matter how much we talk, I won't know the situation unless I see it myself. I'll go and see it myself and find out what these pigs are up to; they're all so horrifying."
After saying that, Ye Tiancheng didn't forget to comfort Liu Lanying. "It's okay, the problem won't be too big. No matter what the illness is, it can be cured. Just wait for the results with peace of mind. I will definitely solve it."
Ye Tiancheng didn't think it was a big deal; it was probably just some minor issue. And for so many pigs to suddenly go mad, there must be a source. As long as the source is dealt with, there won't be any major problems. Ye Tiancheng's thinking was quite idealistic; he didn't expect things to get worse and worse.
Liu Lanying quickly led Ye Tiancheng to see them. As soon as Ye Tiancheng arrived and before he could even see what the pigs looked like, he heard them tearing at each other ferociously, emitting piercing screams that made Ye Tiancheng uncomfortable. When he first heard about it, he didn't expect such horrifying things to happen. But seeing it with his own eyes, he found that one pig had directly bitten out the eyeball of another pig. The pig that had lost its eyeball, as if it felt no pain, then started to ferociously attack another pig. In short, the two pigs were going wild, seeming as if they were going to explode.
"Am I seeing things? Why are these pigs fighting more fiercely? The veterinarian gave those frenzied pigs tranquilizers earlier. Even if tranquilizers work on humans, why wouldn't they work on pigs? The more I think about it, the more terrifying it is."
Liu Lanying was so scared that she could barely accept the reality before her eyes. She kept hiding behind Ye Tiancheng, seeking his protection. Ye Tiancheng closed his eyes, sent a surge of true qi to his dantian, and then felt it for a moment. Amidst the pigs tearing at each other, Ye Tiancheng quickly discovered the problem: the circulating black qi.
The black qi was constantly moving. Although not much, it was enough to deal with some mindless pigs. Ye Tiancheng just couldn't understand why this black qi appeared. Could it be that Ouyang Xunuo, realizing he couldn't kill Ye Tiancheng, had gone to attack his businesses through Wan'er?
"Brother Ye, what should we do? We've already suffered heavy losses, and we can't continue like this."
At this critical moment, Ye Tiancheng couldn't afford to worry about his true qi being depleted and unable to be used as freely as before. Now that there was an opportunity to reverse the situation, it could be said that Ye Tiancheng had no better choice.
Ye Tiancheng's true qi was insufficient, yet he wanted to defy fate, making it extremely difficult. He forcefully used his true qi to extinguish the black qi that was circulating among the pigs.
"Alright, Village Chief Liu, there are no more pigs going mad over there. Everything has returned to peace."
The secretary ran over to report. Liu Lanying didn't dare to approach. Now she realized that the situation seemed to have temporarily subsided.
"That's great, Brother Ye! Fortunately, I invited you. You're truly miraculous. You can even solve such problems. You're amazing! I admire you greatly. It's beneficial to follow you. From now on, if anything happens, I'll just come to you for a solution. You're a jack of all trades."
Liu Lanying was showering Ye Tiancheng with effusive praise, but to Ye Tiancheng, the sounds in his ears grew fainter because Ye Tiancheng was becoming increasingly weak, feeling dizzy and unable to stand.
"What's wrong with you? Brother Ye, why do you look a bit unwell? Your lips have no color; you look a little scary."
"It's nothing, I'm fine. I might just be a bit thirsty. Help me inside for some water."
Fortunately, there was an office specifically for the village chief to rest. Liu Lanying quickly helped Ye Tiancheng over. As soon as they returned to the room, Ye Tiancheng collapsed. It was a feeling of his vision going black, and he fainted. It was difficult for him to wake up.
"Brother Ye, are you alright?"
Liu Lanying called out to him for a long time, but Ye Tiancheng didn't wake up. Helpless, she had to find Xiao Pang to ask what was going on. Xiao Pang told Liu Lanying not to worry; Ye Tiancheng's condition was normal. As long as he rested for a while, he would wake up soon. This was also a form of recovery. Liu Lanying was finally relieved when Xiao Pang said this; she had been extremely worried.
"Alright then, Brother Pang, I'll hang up the phone now. I'll take good care of Brother Ye."
Hearing Liu Lanying's anxious tone and the sudden hang-up, Xiao Pang shook his head frantically on the phone.
"Well, it seems another person has fallen for Brother Ye's charm. It's not easy. Brother Ye, as a son-in-law with so many connections, actually possesses such ability. It seems there will be more good shows to watch in the future."
