It's over!
Wu Xiaohui doesn't want me anymore, and Tang Group doesn't want me either. What will I do in the future?
Xiao Lili immediately thought of many terrible things.
The most terrifying was that Wu Xiaohui had now gained Lin Feng's favor, with an annual salary of one million.
In contrast, she now had nothing.
She felt very uncomfortable, and regret and unwillingness surged in her heart.
At this time, the villagers had all returned home, and the village entrance, which had been bustling moments ago, was now left with only Xiao Lili.
She walked in the night, lost and disoriented, like a walking corpse, not knowing where to go.
She arrived at Wu Xiaohui's house and looked at Wu Xiaohui, who was enjoying his success and playing with his daughter, her heart filled with an unspeakable blockage.
"I'm not reconciled! Why can Wu Xiaohui, this useless man, live better than me?"
Xiao Lili's face turned pale. She clenched her fists, her fingernails digging deep into her flesh, yet she felt no pain.
She hated Lin Feng for ruining everything.
Bowing her head was out of the question!
Since Lin Feng wouldn't let her have a good life, then no one else would either!
A trace of venom flashed in Xiao Lili's eyes.
She crept to the medicinal field, looked at the vast expanse of ripe medicinal herbs, and took out a lighter from her pocket.
Almost without thinking, she set fire to the mature herbs.
In autumn, the fields were already dry.
With dry grass everywhere, a single spark quickly turned into a raging inferno.
Flames shot into the sky, startling the villagers.
Instantly, the entire village was filled with shouts and cries.
Everyone rushed towards the medicinal field, trying to extinguish the fire.
But once the fire took hold, human efforts were futile.
Xiao Lili watched the spreading flames with no remorse on her face; instead, she looked triumphant.
"Hmph, let's see if you can still laugh now?"
"If I'm not well, no one else will be!"
"Lin, aren't you rich? Let's see how you handle this now!"
Xiao Lili sneered triumphantly and quietly left the scene.
Soon, Lin Feng, along with Tang Wan and others, appeared at the edge of the field, looking at the raging fire.
The women all couldn't help but frown.
"It's over. The crops that the villagers worked hard for all year are all destroyed!"
Shen Xinyue watched with a heavy heart.
She knew how hard-won these crops were.
"Who did this? How could they be so heartless?"
Lu Jingzhe bit her lip in anger. Her intuition told her that the fire was definitely man-made.
"Let's not talk about it anymore. We need to think of a way to put out the fire quickly. If it keeps burning, the entire village will be engulfed."
Tang Wan, having experienced greater storms, maintained a semblance of calmness.
She knew that at such a time, the priority was to salvage the situation, not to complain or assign blame.
"Oh no! This is a disaster!"
"It's over, my medicinal herbs!"
"What should we do? All the herbs and crops will be burned. Can we still live?"
The wails were heartbreaking. Many villagers had collapsed, sitting on the ground, tears streaming down their faces as they watched the fierce flames.
Village Chief Ge, leading the young men of the village, charged into the fire to try and extinguish it, but ultimately couldn't resist the blaze and were forced back.
"Lin Feng, think of a solution quickly! Aren't you omnipotent?"
Shen Xinyue tugged anxiously at Lin Feng's clothes.
"What solution could Mr. Lin have? With such a big fire, even the fire department might not be able to control it. Unless the heavens take pity on these villagers and send a heavy rain!"
Lu Jingzhe's eyes glistened with tears.
Her words reminded Lin Feng.
"You're right, it's time for a heavy rain!"
Lin Feng smiled. Under the confused gazes of Tang Wan and the others, he gathered his true qi in his palms.
He struck the sky with a palm, and the sky immediately rumbled.
This thunderous sound caused all the disheartened villagers to look up at the dark night sky.
Lin Feng continuously struck out with his palms, and the thunderous sounds in the sky became more continuous.
"Gather!"
Lin Feng roared, clenching his fists, his powerful true qi surging towards the heavens.
In an instant, dark clouds covered the sky.
"Thunder come!"
Lin Feng bit his finger and drew a thunder talisman in the air.
Crack!
Several bolts of lightning split the sky, and a drizzle began to fall.
"It's raining! Heaven has eyes, thank you, heaven!"
The villagers knelt on the ground in disbelief, thanking the heavens.
Unfortunately, this little rain could not extinguish such a large fire.
Lin Feng went all out, releasing more true qi to gather more clouds.
The rain then gradually intensified, and finally, it poured down.
The cold rain, while extinguishing the great fire, also brought a measure of calm to the agitated hearts of the crowd.
The villagers stood in the pouring rain, letting the water drench them without leaving.
They braved the rain to inspect the medicinal fields and crops.
Although the heavy rain extinguished the fire, the crops and medicinal fields still suffered significant losses.
The entire village lost nearly a third of its harvest.
"Village Chief, this, this might be the responsibility of Boss Lin, we collected his money!"
"It's alright, we'll return whatever is owed. Boss Lin has already helped us a lot, we can't let him continue to subsidize us."
Village Chief Ge smiled and appeased the villagers, as this was the best outcome in misfortune, and they should be happy.
On the other hand, Lin Feng, after expending a large amount of true qi, was extremely weak.
"Quick, quickly help me back to rest, I can't hold on!"
Lin Feng urgently reminded Tang Wan before he lost consciousness.
