It was already 11 o'clock, time for lunch. Chen Haoxuan had promised to treat everyone, so he asked Chen Yuebin to take over twenty villagers to the county town to buy vegetables, while Li Ping prepared to cook with fifty villagers, and many others volunteered to help.
At this moment, Chen Haoxuan was chatting with Zhou Xiang and others in the second-floor hall of the villa. Zhou Xiang gave Chen Haoxuan a thumbs up and said admiringly, "Haoxuan, you are truly a dragon among men. In just a few years, you've expanded your business worldwide and collaborated with so many large enterprises. With their support, your future achievements are limitless!"
"Haoxuan, if you have any profitable business ventures in the future, make sure to let me know first. I still have tens of millions of Renminbi that I need to invest!" Hua Tianyu said with a grin. Despite his cheerful demeanor, he was serious; his tens of millions were accumulated from real estate investments. He felt that making money alongside Chen Haoxuan would be faster than speculating on properties, so he sold all his previous villas and houses, keeping only one for himself.
"You could buy stocks in companies related to me! It's best to invest in those that are just starting out; that way, you'll make money quickly. As for losses, that won't happen because I won't let any company connected to me go under. So it's guaranteed profit. Just keep this between us; we don't want outsiders getting involved!" Chen Haoxuan smiled.
"Haoxuan, where have you been these past two years?" Chen Yina, sitting next to him, couldn't help but ask. She had been thinking about this question for two years, and now that Chen Haoxuan was back, she felt she would go crazy if she didn't ask.
Chen Haoxuan chuckled and patted Chen Yina's hand lightly. "Did you not notice that Lin Hao and the others are stronger than before?"
"Did you all spend the last two years training?" Zhou Kexin questioned.
"That's right; we did train. You ordinary people might not understand why I needed to train, but you should know this saying: 'In the world of martial arts, one cannot avoid being harmed.' This means that the stronger a person is, the more dangerous it becomes; they are more likely to be targeted. Two years ago, I was attacked multiple times; you should remember that! So for my safety and to reassure everyone who cares about me, I took my subordinates and trained for two whole years. Now their abilities have surpassed human limits. Coupled with my continuous development over these two years, very few dare to provoke me now. That's why I took people to train," Chen Haoxuan explained.
Chen Haoxuan did not reveal his identity as part of the Dragon Group; after all, in the eyes of ordinary people, the Dragon Group was a legend. If word got out, it would cause him significant trouble. Additionally, as a government official, he couldn't engage in business according to regulations in many countries unless he resigned from his position.
"I can't see any changes in you now. Did Lin Hao and the others do all the training while you focused on developing your career?" Hua Lingwei asked curiously as she looked at Chen Haoxuan.
Chen Haoxuan smiled. He stood up and walked over to the TV stand, picking up an artwork placed beside it. The artwork was made of silver and depicted a chubby pig. He held the silver pig in his right hand and walked over to Hua Lingwei, presenting it to her.
Hua Lingwei accepted it with a puzzled expression and asked curiously, "Why are you giving me this Silver Pig?"
"Take a closer look at the Silver Pig," Chen Haoxuan reminded.
Hua Lingwei gasped as she exclaimed, "Ah... the Silver Pig was perfectly fine yesterday, how come there are several fingerprints on it now?"
Chen Haoxuan quickly waved his hand, and a transparent thread flew out from his sleeve, wrapping around the Silver Pig that Hua Lingwei was holding. Chen Haoxuan's speed was so fast that Hua Lingwei and the others didn't even notice how the Silver Pig returned to his hand.
Hua Lingwei was dumbfounded. She looked at her own hand and then at the Silver Pig in Chen Haoxuan's hand. Her brows furrowed as she couldn't understand how the Silver Pig, which had clearly been in her hand, suddenly appeared in Chen Haoxuan's grasp.
What surprised Hua Lingwei and the others even more was that Chen Haoxuan was shaping the Silver Pig into various forms, making it seem as if he was molding not silver, but clay.
"You are all curious about why the Silver Pig that Weiwei just held is suddenly in my hands, right? The truth is that my speed is so fast that you couldn't see it, which is why it seems like the Silver Pig appeared in my hands out of nowhere. This Silver Pig is made of silver; although it's not as hard as iron, it's still very difficult for a person to flatten it. Basically, an average person can't do it. I can because I have great strength. Now you see! This is my achievement over the past two years," Chen Haoxuan said proudly.
"Haoxuan, you are truly capable! Not only have you expanded your business worldwide in two years, but you've also mastered extraordinary martial arts. Impressive!" Zhou Xiang admired.
"Impressive, really impressive..." others chimed in to praise Chen Haoxuan.
Chen Haoxuan and Zhou Xiang hadn't chatted for long when Li Ping came over to call them for lunch. Today's dishes were all stir-fried at the front and stewed at the back. Due to time constraints, they served the stir-fried dishes immediately; by the time everyone finished eating, the stewed dishes would be ready, ensuring no delay in mealtime.
Everyone from Chen Family Village went to Chen Haoxuan's place for a meal, including many from the neighboring village. However, Chen Zhenghao and his wife did not join; they felt too ashamed to eat Chen Haoxuan's food. They stayed home while others enjoyed delicacies at the rice drying area in Chen Family Village, while they hid at home nibbling on vegetables—pathetic and sad.
Usually, Chen Zhenghao and his wife found some flavor in their vegetables, but today they tasted bland and dull. They occasionally glanced outside where delicious aromas wafted in, making their mouths water. Their lives had become very poor since their income relied solely on farming; being older now meant they wouldn't be hired for labor.
Since Chen Zhenghao's family fell into misfortune, people in Chen Family Village looked down on them. However, over time, some began to feel pity for the couple; they were aging and alone without anyone to help or support them—how pitiful!
After lunch, each guest bid farewell to Chen Haoxuan. He stood at the village entrance for two hours until everyone had left. With the guests gone, it was time to catch up with close friends.
Chen Haoxuan returned to the villa to play with Chen Yina and the others. That day, Zhou Kexin and the others did not go home and stayed at Chen Haoxuan's villa instead. He didn't mind, as there were plenty of rooms in his villa. When it was time to sleep, Chen Haoxuan shared a room with Chen Yina, but unfortunately, he was kicked out just two hours after entering.
