The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man novel Chapter 730

Chapter 730: Chapter 726: Stepping Down

Old Nine had been put away.

An Dongyang had also been harshly reprimanded by An Mingjiang, so he had long held a grudge against Leng Yuan.

However, Leng Yuan answered to the brigade command, and without a legitimate reason, there was truly nothing An Dongyang could do to him.

Besides, Leng Yuan was incredibly slippery. In all this time, An Dongyang had never been able to get any dirt on him.

Having no other choice, An Dongyang set his sights on Lu Yuanbin once again.

He refused to believe that Lu Yuanbin could truly stay away from the black market.

After all, the black market was so profitable. Why else would so many people risk a bullet to the head to get involved?

It was all for the money, wasn’t it?

Lu Yuanbin was the one who needed money the most. How could he bear to give it up?

Even if he wasn’t doing it now, he would definitely go back to it after a while, once the heat died down.

The busy farming season was over, and it was a rare time for rest.

That evening, the four adults—Leng Yuan, Gu Jiaojiao, Jiang Baishu, and Chen JianShe—sat on the stone stools in the courtyard, drinking tea, eating fruit, and chatting.

Jiang Baishu was rather quiet that night. Chen JianShe did most of the talking, with Gu Jiaojiao chiming in occasionally. Leng Yuan said little, and Jiang Baishu said even less.

This was quite unusual.

Chen JianShe brought up the topic of going hunting in the mountains again the next day.

"The busy season is finally over, so we can take a breather. Let’s go hunting in the mountains again tomorrow! We can stay up there for the whole day this time. Between the few of us, we can bag something big."

"What do you say, Bai Shu?"

When Chen JianShe finished, he glanced at Jiang Baishu, who didn’t respond. Chen JianShe gave him a nudge.

Only then did Jiang Baishu snap out of it.

Chen JianShe said with dissatisfaction, "What are you thinking about, you kid? You didn’t even hear me talking to you."

Jiang Baishu was silent for a moment before he spoke slowly. "I’m preparing to step down."

"I’ve come to understand during this time that Sweet Girl and Xiao Yang both need someone to look after them. I’m their big brother, and I should stay by their side to take care of them."
