Look at this kid!
He puffed up as soon as someone mentioned he was fat!
Zhang Heng felt like he was showing off in front of him.
But Cheng Xiaofan was truly speaking the truth.
Ever since Cheng Xiaofan inherited the Shennong legacy, he had never diligently cultivated.
He relied more on the Shennong Jing stored in his mind, from which he gained various medical skills, alchemy techniques, and combat power.
His talent was indeed terrifyingly high.
Not only that.
His luck was also exceptionally good, and opportunities always found him.
Even this trip to the capital brought him over two hundred billion US dollars from a foreigner.
Not just anyone could have such good fortune.
Zhang Heng could only sigh in his heart.
This guy was truly a monstrous talent!
Just then.
Little Shiniang and Wu Shengnan came out of the kitchen with dishes.
Once all the dishes were on the table.
Cheng Xiaofan took out two bottles of Qian Ri Zui from his space.
He smiled and said, "We'll drink my wine again today."
Little Shiniang said, "Xiaofan, my child, you're at your teacher's home, and you still worry that your teacher won't have wine to drink?"
"Why are you bringing out wine again!"
Cheng Xiaofan chuckled and said, "Today I made a fortune from a foreigner!"
"To celebrate, I'll offer wine as a toast!"
He unscrewed the caps and poured a glass for Zhang Heng and himself.
Wu Shengnan had to drive, so she couldn't drink.
Seeing that she wasn't drinking, Little Shiniang also refrained.
Zhang Heng had always had a good capacity for alcohol.
The teacher and student clinked glasses.
Before they knew it.
Both bottles of Qian Ri Zui were emptied.
After dinner, as Wu Shengnan was about to leave.
Cheng Xiaofan packed a large bag of snake essence meat for her and delivered it to her car.
"Husband, you're giving me so much snake essence meat, won't you have none left yourself?" With no outsiders present, Wu Shengnan called him husband directly.
Cheng Xiaofan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I still have plenty."
"You should go back and rest early."
"I'm returning tomorrow, and we'll have plenty of opportunities to meet in the future."
He knew that every time he met Wu Shengnan, she was reluctant to part.
Wu Shengnan nodded and said, "Okay, I'm leaving then."
"Minister Zhang is still waiting for you inside, so you should rest early too!"
Cheng Xiaofan smiled, "Alright, I'll go back to my room to rest!"
Wu Shengnan got into the car, waved at him, and drove away.
When Cheng Xiaofan returned indoors, Little Shiniang had already gone to rest.
Zhang Heng gave him a smiling glance.
He said with a laugh, "Kid, tell me the truth."
"Are you and Wu Shengnan more than just friends?"
Cheng Xiaofan feigned ignorance.
He asked, "Teacher, I don't understand what you mean."
"What do you mean by 'more than just friends'?"
Zhang Heng glared at him, "Don't play dumb with me when you know perfectly well."
"Do you think I don't know? The way Wu Shengnan looks at you."
"It's definitely like looking at a first love."
"I'm an experienced person, how could I not see it?"
Cheng Xiaofan quickly said, "Teacher, please don't wrongly accuse me!"
"In my heart, there is only my goddess Bai. I don't care for any other woman!"
"You shouldn't say things like that casually!"
"Do I look like that kind of person, so pure and innocent?"
"Alright, look how worked up you are!"
Zhang Heng laughed, "Whether you are that kind of person or not, you know it yourself."
"Since you're involved with her, don't treat her badly!"
Cheng Xiaofan sat down and buried his head in his tea, not responding to Zhang Heng's words.
He knew Zhang Heng must have other things to discuss with him.
As expected!
Zhang Heng's smile faded.
He said, "Xiaofan, there's something else I need to discuss with you!"
Cheng Xiaofan said, "Teacher, just say whatever you need to say."
Zhang Heng said, "You should know about the Island Nation, right?"
Cheng Xiaofan replied, "I know. This Island Nation is only as big as our Southern Province."
"Although its land area is small, its resources are quite abundant."
"It is particularly famous for its production of gold and beautiful women, and its citizens live very prosperous lives!"
Zhang Heng nodded and said, "Do you know that the Island Nation's borders have recently been sealed? Countries around the world dare not interact with them."
Cheng Xiaofan was slightly taken aback.
He asked, "Why?"
Zhang Heng said with a solemn expression, "Recently, a particularly virulent virus broke out in the Island Nation. Anyone infected with it develops all sorts of strange illnesses."
"And the mortality rate is extremely high. The death toll in the entire Island Nation has already reached twenty percent due to this virus outbreak!"
"Currently, no country in the world has been able to develop a medicine that can combat this virus."
Cheng Xiaofan frowned slightly.
He said, "Teacher, you mean you want me to go to the Island Nation."
Zhang Heng replied, "It's not me, it's the decision from higher-ups."
"You must know that there are many Chinese businessmen in the Island Nation."
"Also, although the Island Nation has sealed its borders."
"However, birds flying in the sky cannot be sealed, can they?"
"If those creatures carry the virus and fly to various parts of the world."
"Our China will inevitably suffer harm."
"Out of international conscience, and for the sake of our China."
"The higher-ups, after consideration, have decided to send you to the Island Nation."
Cheng Xiaofan's heart leaped.
As if an auspicious sign, hinting that this expedition to the Island Nation would bring great benefits.
An opportunity not to be missed.
Once missed, it would not come again!
"Teacher, this is too unfair to me!"
Cheng Xiaofan was already tempted.
But he put on an expression of extreme reluctance.
He said, "You see, I just returned home from outside."
"Now I have to go on a long journey again, and I don't know when I'll be back."
"How can I explain this to Goddess Bai!"
Zhang Heng smiled and said, "I'll give you a week."
"Spend some quality time with your Goddess Bai at home."
"After a week, come to me."
"Someone will arrange a private jet for you then."
Cheng Xiaofan said, "For your sake, teacher, I can agree!"
"However, I have the Sky-Breaking Eagle, so a private jet is unnecessary!"
Zhang Heng chuckled, "Xiaofan, you will be representing China's divine doctor on this expedition to the Island Nation."
"A group of people will accompany you."
Cheng Xiaofan frowned and said, "If I'm not mistaken, those people will only be going for fame and glory, accomplishing nothing."
"It's better to keep them at home doing some practical work."
Zhang Heng said, "Alright, Xiaofan, stop throwing a childish tantrum."
"Some formalities still need to be observed!"
"Just listen to your teacher!"
Cheng Xiaofan said, "Okay, I'll listen to you, teacher."
Zhang Heng smiled and said, "Xiaofan, then you should get some rest early."
"I assume you're going to see Li Jieqiong tomorrow?"
Cheng Xiaofan couldn't help but be taken aback, and he smiled, "Huh, that's amazing! Teacher, you can even figure this out?"
