"Chen Daochang, I noticed that the punch the yellow-haired kid threw was quite powerful. Are you okay?"

As we got into the car, I asked Chen Yuanshan, who was sitting in the driver's seat, to express concern.

"Do I look like I'm in trouble?"

Chen Yuanshan smiled at me and started the car, heading towards Fuyuan Hutong.

"Chen Daochang, I really appreciate your help earlier, getting me out of that situation."

"No problem. That kid was too aggressive, and I couldn't stand it."

"Chen Daochang, did you notice that there was a moment when the eye in the middle of the yellow-haired kid's eyebrows seemed to flash?"

"That eye in the middle of his eyebrows isn't a tattoo. If I'm not mistaken, that eye should be naturally there from birth. We commonly call that eye the 'Yin-Yang Eye.'

And that yellow-haired kid is not an ordinary person. If you happen to encounter him again, try to avoid him."

Chen Yuanshan warned me cautiously.

"Chen Daochang, I'm not afraid of him."

"It's not about being afraid or not. As the saying goes, 'A wise man does not suffer losses.' I just told you, that kid is not an ordinary person. Even if ten of you were together, you might not be able to beat him."

Chen Yuanshan smiled as he spoke.

Back at Dao Zun Hall, I saw Xu Yan sitting on the first-floor sofa, playing with her phone. Two pink suitcases were placed next to the sofa.

Feng Shichao was sitting in front of Chen Yuanshan's desk, giving a middle-aged woman a fortune-telling session.

"Yanzhi, you're here."

Chen Yuanshan entered Dao Zun Hall, smiled, and greeted Xu Yan.

"Senior Uncle, sorry for the trouble." Xu Yan stood up, put down her phone, and said apologetically to Chen Yuanshan.

"No trouble at all. Senior Uncle welcomes you. Quickly move your things to the small bedroom on the second floor."

Chen Yuanshan pointed upstairs and instructed Xu Yan.

Xu Yan nodded to Chen Yuanshan and proceeded to move one of the suitcases, following behind us toward the second floor.

"He Zhihui, please help me bring up the suitcase downstairs."

Seeing me placing the groceries in the kitchen, Xu Yan called out to me.

"Sure."

I readily agreed, ran downstairs, and helped Xu Yan carry the other suitcase to the second-floor bedroom.

While moving the suitcase, I thought to myself that it was probably because Xu Yan was pretty. If she were not good-looking, I might not be bothered to help her.

I admit it; I am a mundane person.

"Thank you."

After I helped Xu Yan bring up her suitcase, she politely thanked me.

"You're welcome. If there's nothing else, I'll go cook."

I said to Xu Yan and headed to the kitchen.

"I'll help you cook."

Xu Yan followed me out of the small bedroom and entered the kitchen.

"In that case, you can wash the vegetables, and I'll do the cooking."

"I don't want to wash vegetables, and I don't want to chop them. I just want to stir-fry."

"Xu Yan, if you really want to learn how to cook, you have to start from the beginning. If you don't want to wash or chop vegetables, it's like a child who just learned to walk but starts running before being steady. They will definitely fall. You have to take it step by step."

"You make sense. Then, I'll let you handle it."
