"Xiaobei, what were you saying just now! What boyfriend, did you... did you ask for my opinion?"

On the mountain, as Qu Linger took the phone handed over by Hu Xiaobei, she shyly muttered to herself.

At this moment, Qu Linger was really extremely shy.

Because Hu Xiaobei's announcement earlier was so domineering that she was still a bit stunned!

"Teacher Linger, I said that just to help you get rid of that trash."

Hu Xiaobei wasn't sure what Qu Linger was thinking, so he looked at her and awkwardly explained in a low voice...

"Just to help me get rid of that trash? So what you said wasn't true?"

Catching the hint of disappointment in Qu Linger's words, Hu Xiaobei realized that Qu Linger had feelings for him too.

After being stunned for a second, Hu Xiaobei quickly grasped her small, tender hand.

While Qu Linger was somewhat stunned, Hu Xiaobei said softly, "No! Teacher Linger, what I said was the truth, purely the truth. I really do have feelings for you!"

As he spoke, Hu Xiaobei looked at her with burning eyes.

Hu Xiaobei realized she was really especially bright and charming...

Hearing Hu Xiaobei's urgent explanation, Qu Linger relaxed and smiled happily.

She shyly glanced at the reddened hand held by Hu Xiaobei and whispered, "Still calling me teacher?"

After being stunned for a second, Hu Xiaobei chuckled foolishly and quickly said, "Yes, yes, yes! It's my mistake! Linger, from now on, I'll just call you Linger!"

Reaching this point, Hu Xiaobei excitedly asked, "By the way, Linger, do you like me? Would you like to be my girlfriend?"

"I am willing, but how will I explain this to Yueyue then?"

"Well... I think Yueyue will definitely understand!"

Hearing Hu Xiaobei speak so confidently, Qu Linger smiled and teasingly asked, "Understand? Understand that you're a flirt?"

"Uh..."

Hu Xiaobei didn't know what to say at this moment!

Because her description of him was absolutely accurate...

Seeing Hu Xiaobei at a loss for words, she waved her hand and said, "Haha, don't be upset, I'm just kidding with you!"

With a gentle nod, Hu Xiaobei quickly replied, "I know! I'm not upset! Alright, Linger, you go and spend time with your parents now, let them not worry too much! I'll go look for medicinal herbs and once I gather them, the treatment can begin soon!"

"Alright! We'll all wait for you, and don't rush too much!"

"Don't worry!"

Saying this, Hu Xiaobei quickly left...

Watching Hu Xiaobei disappear around the corner, Qu Linger reluctantly retracted her gaze...

...

After parting with Qu Linger, Hu Xiaobei serenely walked towards the villa at the mountaintop.

Hu Xiaobei was preparing to go to the 'pharmacy' to get medicinal herbs.

Qu Linger's mother's illness was peculiar and quite difficult to treat.

Hu Xiaobei knew this, so he was preparing thoroughly...

At the 'pharmacy'.

Seeing Treasure-hunting Rabbit looking annoyed, Hu Xiaobei cleared his throat, "Pharmacy! Uh, no, Treasure-hunting Rabbit, I really do need your help this time."

Treasure-hunting Rabbit heard Hu Xiaobei's words but pretended not to hear, turning its head away.

"Seems like you don't want to help! In that case, don't pester me to go into the deep mountains, I won't agree to it, I..."

As he spoke, Hu Xiaobei stood up to leave.

Just as he took a step, he felt a weight on his shoulder.

Turning his head, Hu Xiaobei saw it gesturing at him with its chubby paw.

Hu Xiaobei quickly understood what it wanted to express...

It agreed to provide him with all the medicinal herbs he needed.

Seeing it agree to help, Hu Xiaobei was not surprised at all.

Because Hu Xiaobei knew that the depths of the endless mountains meant a lot to it...

Previously, Treasure-hunting Rabbit had told Hu Xiaobei more than once that it wanted him to accompany it to the woods of the back mountain to search for medicinal herbs, mentioning that there were many precious herbs there.

Hu Xiaobei had not agreed outright before because he was very busy then!

Of course!

Another reason was that Hu Xiaobei knew there were many unknown dangers in those endless woods, so he really didn't want to go there.

Grasping its chubby little hand, Hu Xiaobei resolutely said, "Let's make a deal; as long as you provide me with all the medicinal herbs I need, I will accompany you when the time comes! Then you can take seventy percent of all we find, okay!"

After saying that, Hu Xiaobei looked at it seriously!

Soon, Hu Xiaobei's mouth twitched slightly, "Alright! You want ninety percent, so ninety percent it is!"

At this moment, Hu Xiaobei truly understood what it meant for a rabbit to drive a hard bargain!

More terrifying than a lion...

Seeing Hu Xiaobei agree to its terms, it smiled satisfactorily and extended its chubby paw again.

Looking at it, Hu Xiaobei extended his hand to shake it.

"Pleasure working with you!"

Hu Xiaobei quickly said without hesitation.

Knowing that Hu Xiaobei wouldn't deceive it, Treasure-hunting Rabbit, after reaching an agreement, led Hu Xiaobei to its treasure land to find the various medicinal herbs needed...

...

Meanwhile, Han Yueyue and several other girls led Jun Feng and the so-called Divine Doctor up the mountain.

Earlier, Han Yueyue had asked some villagers in Xiaohe Village, so she found out where Hu Xiaobei had arranged for Qu Linger and the others to stay.

So now, she was heading directly there with them!

She wanted this trash to meet her brother Xiaobei as soon as possible.

So that he could realize how big the gap was between him and her brother Xiaobei.

With this realization, he'd never dare to entertain any extraneous thoughts about her Teacher Linger again.

Thinking so, she curiously muttered, "I wonder if the opportunity I created for them before, they grasped it?"

Thinking this, Han Yueyue suddenly heard a distinct, cold question.

"Yueyue, I have a question for you!"

Frowning slightly, Han Yueyue replied coldly, "We're not that familiar, call me Han Yueyue!"

Having hit a wall, Jun Feng's eye twitched, "Fine! Han Yueyue, you are particularly close with your Teacher Linger, can you tell me who her boyfriend is?"

"Her boyfriend?"

"Yes! Earlier when I called her, a guy answered and said he was her boyfriend."

Quickly explaining, Jun Feng's eyes flashed with a trace of resentment...

He hadn't met the guy on the other end, but that didn't stop him from hating that person...

"Looks like things are progressing quickly between them!"

A faint smile appeared on Han Yueyue's lips.

She knew that the so-called boyfriend that Jun Feng mentioned was surely Hu Xiaobei.

Because earlier, only he and Qu Linger were together.

"What do you mean things are progressing quickly? You must know who that person is, right! Tell me, tell me!"

Seeing him about to lose it, Han Yueyue said coldly, "I do know, but why should I tell you, are we close?"

"We are close! We've known each other for a long time!"

Hearing him naturally trying to get chummy, Han Yueyue looked at him with disdain and mocked, "No! We're better off not being close; I worry you might spike my drink with sleeping pills."
