Quenching

Wanli Fuguang himself never imagined that he, the heir of the Wanli family, would marry a naive and innocent girl. He also never imagined that while he, the heir, could be replaced, his naive and innocent wife could not!

A loud slap echoed outside the coffee shop, striking the delivery driver's bewildered face, which twisted slightly.

The delivery driver, ignoring his swollen cheeks and the blood seeping from the corner of his mouth, repeatedly yielded and backed away.

The Rolls-Royce owner seemed far from appeased.

"Slap, slap, slap..." Dozens of arrogant, rapid-fire slaps, ear-piercing and heart-wrenching.

The delivery driver kept bowing his head and apologizing, his hands clasped together in prayer, only to be met with a resounding slap in return.

On the third floor of the coffee shop, the girl sitting opposite Wanli Fuguang had eyes that seemed to burn with intense flames. Her right hand was clenched into a fist, while her left hand remained motionless, holding up her phone.

The domineering and arrogant scene outside the window is clearly recorded in every frame.

With a "bang," the girl's chubby little fist suddenly slammed onto the coffee table. Her round, flushed face trembled slightly, and her sharp eyes seemed to burst forth with a raging fire, threatening to burn away the arrogant Rolls-Royce owner.

As the sunlight gradually dimmed, a golden sign came into the girl's view. She raised her eyebrows, her clear eyes filled with pride.

"Great! The police have stepped in and will stop him from being so arrogant."

Wanli Fuguang's expression was solemn as he carefully observed the indignant girl. A faint smile played on his lips as his long-weary heart slowly opened up.

"It's just a minor scratch on his vehicle, right? Look at his arrogant attitude, he even made someone kneel down. Does he think he's the only one who matters in the world? Now, let him go be arrogant in the police station."

Upon seeing the bloodstains on the deliveryman's lips, which he wiped clean first, the girl's burning anger subsided considerably, and her fingertips, which had turned white with rage, gradually regained some color.

The police officer took the person away, and the girl breathed a sigh of relief, lowered her shrugged shoulders, looked away, sat up straight, and gently tapped her sore and numb left arm.

With a "clang," the phone slipped from its fold and landed squarely on the coffee cup in front of it.

"My new phone."

Outside the café, the leaves have all fallen from the branches, and the soft sunlight gently extends across the trembling branches, lingering and enjoying the moment.

Seeing the girl's flustered state, Wanli Fuguang arched his eyebrows and a smile he couldn't hide on his lips.

The girl looked embarrassed, dropped the tissue in her hand, and hurriedly pretended to casually fiddle with her hair, letting down more of her bangs. Her roommate said it would make her face look smaller, and she was on a blind date.

"So, you've come in place of your cousin?"

"Ah."

Wanli Fuguang gently inhaled the delicate scent of daisies, composed himself, and sat up slightly.

The girl bit her lip, leaving a row of teeth marks, and her gaze fell haphazardly on the dark yellow artificial flowers on the coffee table.

"Your cousin? Why didn't he come? Did he see me in a photo and think my figure was a bit... or...?"

"My name is Wanli Fuguang, and I'm single."

A gentle, handsome voice drifted over, and the girl's lips gradually turned red. Her nostrils flared slightly as she noticed the eyes, as bright and dazzling as a star, gazing at her with a soothing and soft gaze. A blush slowly spread across her cheeks, and her ears burned. She hurriedly picked up the coffee cup in front of her. Hmm? Empty? Oh...oh...oh, right...right, the cappuccino was spilled.

Wanli Fuguang's eyes curved wider and wider, her fair and slender wrists moved slowly as she spoke each word.

"I didn't drink the coffee?"

The pure black coffee cup caught the girl's eye.

"Thank you."

The girl paused as she placed the glass down, her expression frozen for two seconds, and a fine layer of sweat appeared on the tip of her nose.

The warm sunlight streamed onto the coffee table, making the golden coffee spoon particularly dazzling. The girl frowned slightly, steeled herself, swallowed her coffee with a gulp, brushed aside her bangs, and took a closer look at the gentle gentleman opposite her.

He possessed a handsome and noble air, striking good looks, and especially his deep eyes, which held a broad, unspoken smile, along with an emotion that she couldn't quite decipher.

Wanli Fuguang's smiling gaze flowed gently like a stream over the slightly shy girl.

What do you usually like to do?

"Do I like keeping pets?"

"pet?"

Wanli Fuguang's soft voice had a hint of stiffness.

"Yes, you don't like it, do you?"

The girl stared at the handsome Wanli Fuguang with her big, watery eyes, feeling disappointed. She really hoped he would say he liked her, so they would have a common interest.

"Hehe, what kind of pet do you like?"

The snowflakes drifted down, falling happily outside the warm coffee shop. The gentle sunlight seemed to tightly envelop the biting cold wind.

The girl, her mouth dry, frowned, took another big gulp of coffee, and continued her enthusiastic explanation.

"I also teach farmers how to handle pigs when they are unwell. For example, if a pig has diarrhea, we need to replenish its fluids. This can be done through intravenous injection, feeding via gastric tube, or intraperitoneal injection of glucose-saline solution."

Wanli Fuguang's eyes were like autumn water. After listening to the boring pig farming knowledge all afternoon, he only felt that it was pleasant and comfortable.

"Let me start with intravenous injection. Oh, wait a minute, don't get confused. The intravenous injection I'm talking about here is not the same place as the ear injection I mentioned earlier. The ear injection I mentioned earlier was in the very center of the base of the pig's ear..."

Wanli Fuguang lowered his arms, sat up straight, and slowly parted his lips.

"where?"

"what?"

"Where is the injection site?"

"Around this location."

The girl folded her ear, and her chubby fingertips landed right behind her ear in the middle.

"Is this here?"

Wanli Fuguang followed suit, folding his own ears and gently touching the back of his ears with his long, clean fingers.

"Not here, a little further back."

The girl's soft, smooth hands, like the cream of mutton fat, touched lightly.

Wanli Fuguang glanced at the evening clouds and sunset on the horizon, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly, as if he were tasting the light, colorful clouds, finding them sweet and delightful, and feeling indescribably happy.

The girl picked up her coffee, following Wanli Fuguang's gentle, spring-like gaze. The afterglow of the setting sun painted the sky, and the shy glow of the sunset spilled onto the magnificent castle, creating a mysterious and dreamlike atmosphere. On the hard stone wall stood an ancient bell, its sound faint and distant… the bell… the bell… um?

The girl quickly looked away, swallowed the coffee in her mouth, and grabbed her backpack.

"If you are interested in pig farming, I can recommend a few places to you."

"Take me there!"

"Okay, no problem. Wait...wait a minute, how old are you?"

"I'm twenty-two years old and I work in real estate. What about you?"

"I am eighteen years old and a sophomore in college. I usually like to sell some animal feed and pet food."

What gift would you like to receive tomorrow?

The girl paused, blinked, and seemed a little confused about the meaning of "Wanli Fuguang".

"Gift?"

"I'll come back here tomorrow."

Wanli Fuguang leaned back, his eyes revealing a hint of lingering enjoyment.

"Oh me……"

As the girl was pondering this, she noticed the warm lights in the coffee shop getting brighter and brighter. She quickly stuffed her phone into her bag and waved to Wanli Fuguang.

"See you tomorrow."

Where are you going? I'll give you a ride.

Wanli Fuguang got up slowly.

"no need."

Without turning her head, the girl grabbed her black down jacket and ran quickly toward the stairwell.

Seriously, why are we chatting for so long? I told my roommate I was going to the library.

If my phone hadn't fallen into the cappuccino, messages from my roommates' group chat would have flooded in!

Hearing the rapid footsteps falling on the wooden floor, "tap, tap, tap," Wanli Fuguang strode towards the stairwell.

"What's your name?"

Wanli Fuguang looked down at the girl who was running down to the first floor and realized that this was probably the first time he had ever spoken to a girl so loudly.

"Huang Qiaqia".

Panting heavily, Huang Qiaqia didn't stop. He threw down a sentence and ran like a gust of wind.

Huang Qiaqia breathed a sigh of relief as she closed the taxi door. Luckily, her lung capacity was sufficient; otherwise, would Wanli Fuguang have been able to hear her even from almost two floors away?

I haven't gotten his contact information yet.

It's okay, come earlier tomorrow and we can chat a little longer.

******

A Lamborghini with the license plate ending in 7777 was parked in front of the coffee shop. A man, with a faint aroma of black tea wafting from the car, strode briskly up to the third floor of the coffee shop.

"Young Master, could you please help us find a blind date for our Second Young Master?"

Wanli Fuguang took a sip of the black coffee he had handed to her and thought it seemed to have some flavor, slightly bitter.

"Two cups of coffee tomorrow."

Wu Haofeng stared at the empty black coffee in Wanli Fuguang's hand, a hint of disbelief in his eyes.

"tomorrow?"

Wanli Fuguang tapped her phone twice, her smile freezing on her face. Her brows furrowed slightly. She ran too fast; all that was in the photo was her round little head. Why didn't she ask me to take her? And why did she suddenly run so fast?

******

As the sky turned as black ink spread across it, Wu Haofeng took out his phone and coldly instructed his servants to find a few people to go to Kongxi University, telling them not to hold back.
