24: Chapter 24 People from the Wang Family of Yanjing Have Arrived! The Terrifying Allure of Extraordinary Abilities!
After a few bites, he picked up another piece of braised reed fish.
The taste remained extremely delicious, without a hint of fishiness—a full feast for the taste buds.
With the table of delicacies consumed, Jiang Jin patted his slightly bloated stomach and washed the dishes before putting them away in the kitchen.
At noon, he rested for over an hour.
He planned to go out to the fields to find some animals and plants to continue enriching the species population of the Origin Continent.
But just at this moment, seven or eight mysterious black bulletproof sedans slowly drove down the village road and finally stopped at Jiang Jin's front door.
A literate villager noticed this scene and said to the people around him in great surprise: "Those black sedans actually all have Yanjing license plates!!"
"Which big shot from Yanjing has come to our village for an inspection?"
"Why didn't the village chief mention it?"
"Dad, these people probably aren't here for an inspection!"
The educated child beside him said confidently:
"Look, whenever those big shots on TV go out, they are always accompanied by various reporters and local leaders!"
"But this group is exceptionally low-key; they didn't even block off the village road!"
"Huh, they stopped at little Jiang's door!"
"Look, those bodyguards in black have such sharp eyes. Their waists are bulging—are they carrying guns?"
"What are you doing!"
Just as the father and son wanted to go out for a close-up look, they were sternly shouted back by the village chief, who came running over from afar, covered in sweat:
"Is that something you should be looking at? Hurry up and go home!"
This village chief was very young, dressed in a shirt and sneakers, looking about twenty-eight or twenty-nine. He had been selected from a key university and had been the village chief for less than a year.
The father and son immediately realized something and slunk back home.
However, their curiosity only grew heavier!
They took a wooden ladder, quietly climbed onto the roof, hid half their bodies, and looked toward Jiang Jin's house from afar.
A minute or so later, when the young village chief ran past a doorway, he discovered a clever and sly teenager inside, holding a mobile phone and frantically taking pictures of those mysterious vehicles.
"Chen Changsheng, you brat, you still dare to take pictures? Do you have a death wish?!"
The young village chief immediately ran in and kicked the teenager.
He snatched the cracked-screen phone, deleted the photos and videos, and then educated the teenager very seriously:
"You're a third-year middle school student now, how can you have zero legal awareness?"
"Are those big shots people you can photograph in private?"
"Do you want to end up in juvenile detention?"
"Brother Li, I was wrong, I'm sorry."
Chen Changsheng stood there, apologizing with his head lowered.
At this moment, Jiang Jin's neighbor, Old Man Chen, also walked from the house into the courtyard, pointing at Chen Changsheng with a sense of frustration:
"You brat, you cause trouble all day long; sooner or later you're going to fall hard!"
"Can't you just study hard like Brother Li and Brother Jiang, strive to get into a good university, and secure an 'iron rice bowl' government job in the future?"
Chen Changsheng curled his lips and muttered:
"Old man, give it a rest. With my level, at best I can only get into a vocational school; university is way too far off."
"You unfilial descendant, you haven't inherited a single bit of your grandfather's ability!"
"Pfft, old man, you've farmed your whole life. No matter how bad I do in the future, it'll still be better than your current level."
"You rebellious grandson!"
When Old Man Chen feigned a strike, Chen Changsheng cleverly hid behind Village Chief Li and even poked his head out to make a face.
"Old Man Chen, this kid Changsheng is clever enough, he just doesn't use it in the right way. Just guide him a bit more in the future."
"I still have things to do, so I'll leave it at that."
Village Chief Li finished speaking and quickly said goodbye.
Without wasting any more time, he ran straight to Jiang Jin's door, covered in sweat.
But at this moment,
several men in suits with cold and stern expressions were standing straight here, their intimidating gazes constantly sweeping over the villagers in the distance who wanted to get closer.
"Gentlemen, I am the village chief, 'Li Kai'. If you have any needs, I can provide whatever is required at any time!"
"The village chief? A university selectee?"
A man in a suit wearing a black Bluetooth headset and carrying a black briefcase, who appeared to be the bodyguard captain, scanned Li Kai up and down and said coldly and bluntly:
"We will contact you if we have needs. Now, please stay away from here!"
His voice was like a steel plate in midwinter—hard and decisive, leaving no room for negotiation.
"Yes, yes, yes, I will wait in the distance."
Li Kai showed no dissatisfaction on his face, bowed with a smile, and quickly left, standing on the village road in the distance to wait quietly.
...
Creak—
The bodyguards pushed open the courtyard gate, and a mysterious man and woman who had stepped out of the black bulletproof sedan walked in with steady steps.
"Mr. Jiang, we have come uninvited, and we hope you will forgive us."
When they reached the pavilion in the courtyard, seeing Jiang Jin lying on the rocking chair with his eyes closed, not having risen, the mysterious man of about thirty years old spoke with a smile that felt like a spring breeze.
Facing this scene, the beautiful woman beside him, who was about the same age as Jiang Jin, knitted her delicate brows in displeasure, but she didn't say anything.
"Oh, so guests have arrived?"
Jiang Jin opened his eyelids, half-asleep and half-awake, turned his head to glance slightly at the mysterious man, and said:
"You look quite a bit like Wang Zhen. Who are you?"
"I am the eldest Young Master of the Yanjing Wang family, 'Young Master Wang'. This is my younger sister, 'Wang Yunxi'."
The mysterious man seemed not to have heard Jiang Jin mention Wang Zhen, and his tone remained gentle and elegant as he smiled.
"Haha, so it's the eldest Young Master and the young princess of the Wang family. Please, sit, sit."
Jiang Jin sat up with a chuckle, elegantly gestured with his palm toward the chairs in front of the stone table, and said with a smile:
"No wonder magpies were chirping on my roof beam early this morning; it's a sign of noble guests bringing good luck."
"Whether it is good luck or not depends entirely on your whim, Mr. Jiang."
After taking his seat, Young Master Wang chuckled.
"Haha, you think too highly of me. I am just an ordinary villager."
After speaking, Jiang Jin poured a cup of coarse tea for each of them and said with a slight smile: "I only have coarse tea here; I hope you don't mind too much."
"A mountain doesn't need to be high; it is divine if there is an immortal. Being able to drink Mr. Jiang's tea is our good fortune; how could we have any reason to be picky?"
Young Master Wang had a smile on his face, picked up the tea, and drank a mouthful directly, showing no sign of disdain.
Seeing this, Jiang Jin's expression remained unchanged, but he sighed with admiration in his heart: This eldest Young Master of the Wang family is a character!
A dog that bites doesn't bark. To be able to greet the person who killed his own brother with a smile, showing no signs of resentment—one has to say, this person is ten thousand times better than that good-for-nothing Wang Zhen.
Thinking about it, this Young Master Wang must be the next-generation successor to the top position of the Wang family!
"Mr. Jiang, my sister and I have come today to discuss a matter with you."
Here it comes!!
Under Jiang Jin's gaze, Young Master Wang put down his teacup and slowly began to speak:
"Before we came, my father said that my younger brother brought this upon himself and that his outcome was deserved."
"We shouldn't give up a bright future of cooperation because of a small unpleasant matter."
"Oh, what kind of cooperation? Let's hear it."
Jiang Jin said with a calm expression.
"I wonder if your supernatural ability can be bestowed upon others?"
