Reborn into a Farming Family: My 18 Virtuous Wife is a Hero

But why are there so many guns here? I can't help but recall Yamamoto and Li-san's conversation earlier. Could it be... that their so-called deal was an arms deal?!

At this point, Kimura, as was customary, first checked the authenticity and quality of the guns, and then began directing the men to move them.

“Li Sang, the patriarch’s idea is to ship a portion first. Due to the recent situation in the country, the patriarch has been under surveillance by many parties, so it is inconvenient to ship all the firearms back at once. The patriarch will order me to ship the remaining portion back in several batches. However, the patriarch has already given me the cash that should be paid to you, and I will give it all to you.”

As he spoke, he clapped his hands, and three of his men stepped forward from behind him, each carrying a safe. They opened the safes in unison, revealing them filled with US dollars.

Li Sang was not his real name; it was just what the Japanese called him. His actual name was Li Yikai. After ordering the safe to be taken back, he smiled amicably and said, "Please ask Mr. Kimura to convey to Mr. Yamamoto that this warehouse is a dangerous building, and the government has not yet issued a demolition policy, so these firearms can be safely stored here. I will also send people to check on it from time to time, so Mr. Yamamoto can rest assured."

Kimura nodded and continued to have his men move the goods. When it was almost done, he waved and led his men away.

After he left, Li Yikai shed his amiable demeanor, his face darkening as he ordered the remaining guns to be covered and restored to their original state before leaving.

A few minutes later, Su Mu walked out of the workshop. Using her X-ray vision, she checked the surroundings and quickly left after confirming that there was nothing unusual. She never expected that such a seemingly ordinary warehouse would hide such a big secret.

Clutching his pounding heart, Su Mu ran all the way home. His parents were sitting on the sofa watching TV. When they saw Su Mu running in breathlessly, they were puzzled.

"Xiao Mu, why are you running so fast? What happened?!"

After catching his breath, Su Mu changed into slippers, poured himself a glass of water to moisten his dry throat from running too fast, and said under the worried gazes of his parents.

"Mom, it's nothing. I just ran a few laps outside and I'm a little out of breath."

Su's parents' expressions softened, and they couldn't help but scold, "We just had dinner, why are you running so fast? Come and sit down and rest." Su's mother quickly stood up and waved to Su Mu.

Su Mu shook his head and waved his hands repeatedly, "No need, no need. I have class tomorrow, so I'll go wash my face, brush my teeth, and go to sleep. Mom and Dad, you can watch TV, don't worry about me."

Lying in bed, Su Mu couldn't fall asleep for a long time. Everything she had seen in the warehouse that day kept replaying in her mind, making her feel a strong sense of unease. She remained uneasy until midnight before finally falling into a deep sleep.

The next day, after eating the breakfast that Su's mother had prepared in advance and drinking a glass of milk, I slowly walked to school.

When her face, usually hidden by her black hair, was finally revealed, she received a different kind of attention—awe and admiration. Ignoring these scrutinizing gazes, she slowly walked into the classroom, instantly drawing the attention of the entire class.

"Whoa!" A loud whistle rang out. Su Mu looked over and saw a roguish-looking boy scrutinizing him with a savage gaze before sitting down in his seat.

As soon as she sat down, several boys walked up to her. One of them leaned on the table and grinned mischievously, "Hey beautiful, just transferred here? You can't just sit anywhere like this. You should find another seat, or maybe sit behind me!"

After packing his schoolbag, Su Mu suddenly felt like teasing him. He rested his chin on his hands, blinked his curled eyelashes, and looked at him with a puzzled expression, saying, "Why can't I sit here?"

Su Mu was undoubtedly beautiful after getting her hair cut; otherwise, Xu Yafei in his previous life would not have disregarded his parents' anger to marry her.

Her delicate features resembled a well-behaved porcelain doll, making one hesitant to touch her too closely, for fear of accidentally breaking her. At this moment, her eyes, which seemed to hold the deep blue ocean, stared straight at the boy in front of him, causing him to feel a surge of heat at the tip of his nose.
