41: Confessing the conspiracy to his wife, Sha Zhu's joy, Xu Damao eavesdropping

Long Feiyang swiftly recorded the basement wall into a template.

This basement was constructed from C140 concrete and HRBF2600 rebar, making it extremely hard.

From now on, he could use this template to make himself indestructible, fearless of zombie bites and enemy sneak attacks.

Next, he purchased chemicals like liquid nitrogen and concentrated sulfuric acid from the Super Mall and also recorded them into a template.

Currently, he had no other special Superpower, so he would use these chemicals for self-defense, just in case.

Afterward, Long Feiyang planned to find 'athletic champions' of the insect world, such as Ants and fleas, to personally test the effects of his Ultimate Transformation Ability.

Additionally, he also planned to record the Golden Eagle template, thinking: 'If I can really fly, then the sky's the limit for me to soar freely; perhaps there won't even be a need to build this underground tunnel.'

At noon, Long Feiyang picked up Li Wenting at the Steel rolling mill entrance on time, then took her to a deserted, dilapidated housing area near the Steel rolling mill.

This place was carefully chosen by Red Queen; it was surrounded by abandoned and uninhabited dilapidated houses, with broken walls scattered everywhere, which conveniently blocked the view of others.

Moreover, this location was very close to the Steel rolling mill, less than a ten-minute walk away.

"Husband, why did you bring me here?" Li Wenting asked, full of doubt, her eyes filled with confusion, her mind full of questions.

"To eat here. Wife, please wait a moment." Long Feiyang said, then activated his Ultimate Transformation Ability.

In an instant, a drastic change occurred within a ten-meter radius around them.

The gravel, dust, and collapsed walls on the ground instantly transformed into smooth, flat stone walls.

The roof turned into transparent glass, and sunlight streamed through the glass, illuminating the entire room brightly.

A stone table and stone chairs slowly rose in the middle of the room; everything was incredibly magical.

Li Wenting was completely stunned by the scene before her eyes; her worldview was greatly impacted, and she gained a new understanding of the world's wonders.

Her eyes widened, her mouth slightly agape, her face full of shock and disbelief.

"Hehe, wife, this is the effect after my Superpower upgraded. How is it, isn't it amazing?"

Long Feiyang was beaming with pride, the corners of his mouth turned up in a confident smile, eagerly anticipating Li Wenting's praise, his eyes sparkling.

"Husband, you're truly amazing!" After her initial shock, Li Wenting looked at Long Feiyang's childlike demeanor, finding it both amusing and adorable, and couldn't help but praise him with a laugh.

Receiving his wife's compliment, Long Feiyang's heart blossomed with joy, as sweet as if he had eaten honey.

He quickly took out plates of delicious dishes from his portable space, arranged them on the stone table, and invited Li Wenting to eat first, chatting as they ate.

"Wife, I met Lou Xiaoe today." Long Feiyang recounted the story of his encounter with Lou Xiaoe today in full detail, holding nothing back, emphasizing his honesty, describing every detail clearly.

Li Wenting listened, her face filled with surprise, her eyes wide, unable to imagine that Long Feiyang and Lou Xiaoe had met in such a peculiar way.

"This Lou Xiaoe is reckless and stubborn, full of problems, constantly pestering me with questions, it's so annoying. In my opinion, she doesn't meet Sha Zhu's criteria for a spouse at all. Wife, stop asking about her anymore."

Long Feiyang said as he ate, a hint of helplessness on his face, his brows slightly furrowed.

"Lou Xiaoe insisted on pestering me with questions, and she absolutely wanted my name and address, even planning to visit our home often in the future. So I came up with a plan to have her come to our house at 5 PM this afternoon. I originally intended to trick her into a blind date with Sha Zhu, hoping she would back off when she realized the difficulty."

Long Feiyang put down his chopsticks and continued, a hint of cunning in his eyes.

"Why are you scaring the poor girl? She was just asking you for advice. I don't mind; maybe Brother Zhu will like someone like Lou Xiaoe. Then your perfect plan will fall through."

Li Wenting listened and couldn't help but roll her eyes, utterly speechless at Long Feiyang's habit of making judgments based on mere speculation.

"Isn't it because I'm afraid you'll misunderstand, wife? I'm already married; if she keeps pestering me every day, others will definitely gossip. Besides, with Lou Xiaoe's personality, she definitely won't get along with Sha Zhu."

Long Feiyang spoke with conviction, his expression resolute and unwavering.

"Alright, there's no such thing as a perfect woman in this world. Sha Zhu isn't stupid; if they hit it off, Lou Xiaoe will have a reason to come to our house every day."

Li Wenting was exasperated, finding her new husband sometimes overly confident, and shook her head helplessly.

"My wife is perfect in my eyes. Besides, outsiders now think our family relies on you to earn money and support us."

Long Feiyang said with a grin, winking at Li Wenting, his face radiating a happy smile.

"As for Sha Zhu and Lou Xiaoe, the probability of them getting together is too small, almost impossible."

Long Feiyang shook his head, picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks and put it in his mouth, looking dismissive.

"What if Brother Zhu and Lou Xiaoe really hit it off, but the Lou Family doesn't approve of the marriage? What then?"

Although Li Wenting's tone was initially playful, when it came to serious matters, a worried expression appeared on her face, her eyes filled with concern.

After all, the concept of matching families has a long history. Although feudal marriage systems like arranged marriages were abolished after the founding of the nation, many people still cared about these things in practice.

Previously, she had only thought of introducing them for a blind date and hadn't considered so much. Now that they were about to meet, Li Wenting couldn't help but worry about the subsequent issues.

"Wife, even if there's a slim chance, it would still count as a good deed I've done. If the Lou Family doesn't agree, I'll go talk to them myself. Let them state their conditions; I don't believe hundreds of kilograms of gold and jewels won't suffice as a betrothal gift."

Long Feiyang's eyes were firm, revealing an undeniable determination, thinking that if he could truly facilitate this marriage, it would be a benevolent act.

He was willing to spend emotional value to complete this karma. Even if hundreds of kilograms of gold and jewels weren't enough, he would keep adding more until the Lou Family agreed.

After all, he had plenty of emotional value now and could afford the cost.

"Husband, do you really have that much gold and jewelry?"

Li Wenting listened, her eyes wide with surprise, her mouth agape, her face full of disbelief, as if she had heard a fantastical tale.

"Wife, to me, a kilogram of gold and jewels is no different from a kilogram of grain; it's not worth much money."

Long Feiyang looked at Li Wenting's surprised expression and explained with a smile, "If you like, tonight I'll build you a few basements filled with gold and jewels."

"No." Li Wenting quickly waved her hand, shaking her head like a rattle-drum.

Although she liked these things, she also knew that one shouldn't be so extravagant and wasteful.

She just hadn't expected that in Long Feiyang's eyes, gold and jewels were so worthless.

"I'll go tell Brother Zhu in a bit."

"Hehe, wife, please remember this: you absolutely must remind Sha Zhu that this is just a meeting, not a blind date."

Long Feiyang stood up and once again solemnly reminded Li Wenting, his expression serious.

"Husband, you can rest assured." Li Wenting replied with a smile, though feeling a little helpless.

After dinner, Li Wenting returned to the Steel rolling mill under Long Feiyang's escort.

As soon as she entered the Steel rolling mill, she walked directly towards the cafeteria, intending to find Sha Zhu immediately.

"Brother Zhu, come to my house for dinner tonight. My husband has also invited a young lady; we're having a dinner party at our house tonight, and we'll introduce you two. But Brother Zhu, I have to make it clear to you, this is truly just a dinner party, not a blind date, so don't overthink it."

Li Wenting found Sha Zhu in the cafeteria and specifically emphasized the words "not a blind date," just in case Sha Zhu misunderstood.

Of course, she also didn't dare to reveal Long Feiyang's "little scheme" to Sha Zhu.

Upon hearing this, Sha Zhu's eyes immediately lit up, like a bright lamp suddenly appearing in the darkness, his face full of pleasant surprise and anticipation, and he quickly asked, "Sister, is what you're saying true?"

He really hadn't expected Long Feiyang to be so efficient and act so quickly.

In fact, he understood Li Wenting's meaning in his heart; although this wasn't a formal blind date, it was a good opportunity to meet a young lady. If he found the girl to his liking, he would have to pursue her actively afterward.

"Of course it's true! Brother Zhu, let me tell you, this girl has an urban household registration and is especially beautiful. After work, remember to tidy yourself up, dress smartly, and then come to my house."

Li Wenting thought for a moment and still felt that she should create an opportunity for them to get to know each other, so she told Sha Zhu about Lou Xiaoe's good qualities, her eyes full of encouragement.

"Alright, sister, thank you so much! If this works out, I'll definitely send you a generous gift."

Sha Zhu happily saw Li Wenting off, his face beaming with an uncontrollable smile, humming a little tune as he returned to the cafeteria.

And all of this was clearly overheard by Xu Damao, who was hiding in the corner.

Xu Damao watched Li Wenting and Sha Zhu leave, his face terribly gloomy, like the sky before a storm, and he secretly pondered: 'I can't believe that Long Feiyang actually helped Sha Zhu find a blind date. Damn it! No, I have to go back early and find a way to stop that girl. Hmph, Sha Zhu absolutely cannot get married before me.'

Xu Damao quietly emerged from the corner, and while no one was paying attention, he secretly slipped out of the Steel rolling mill, rushing towards the Siheyuan.
