Liu Guang ordered five or six dishes, and the two began to drink and chat.
"Old Liu, is there something you wanted to talk about that got me out here?" Lu Zhengjun asked with a smile, taking a sip from his glass.
"Not much, just wanted to have a drink with you," Liu Guang replied, raising his own glass and taking a sip. After a moment of silence, he continued, "I also wanted to talk to you about the kids. Xiao wants to break up with Qing Wan; did you know about this?"
Lu Zhengjun was taken aback by this news and shook his head in confusion. "No way. He hasn't mentioned anything to me about it. Aren't they already set to get married in May? Why would they break up now?"
Liu Guang shook his head helplessly and briefly recounted yesterday's events to Lu Zhengjun. "Young people can be impulsive; he should come around in a few days. How about this? I'll talk to him and try to convince him to reconcile with Qing Wan."
Hearing Lu Zhengjun voluntarily offer to help persuade Lu Xiaoran, Liu Guang quickly seized the opportunity. "Yes, Lao Lu. I really don't want to see these two kids split up like this. If you could talk to Xiao, that would be a huge help."
"Ha ha! No problem, leave it to me!" Lu Zhengjun laughed heartily.
Once home, Lu Zhengjun sent several messages to Lu Xiaoran on WeChat, reasoning with him and appealing to his emotions, urging him to reconcile with Liu Qingwan as soon as possible.
After half a day passed without a single reply from Lu Xiaoran, Lu Zhengjun hesitated for a moment before calling him several times, but each call was met with a busy signal.
Lu Zhengjun couldn't help but wonder what Lu Xiaoran was so busy with at the moment.
Meanwhile, Lu Xiaoran was indeed occupied. He had contacted someone about leasing a piece of barren land the night before. Early in the morning, he took a taxi downtown to handle the paperwork.
The land he intended to lease was called Dragon Ridge Mountain. He had already researched its details online prior to this.
Dragon Ridge Mountain had an elevation of 367 meters and covered an area of 480 acres, with an annual leasing fee of 50,000 yuan. The ownership of this barren mountain currently belonged to a village collective known as Dragon Ridge Village.
Now, Lu Xiaoran needed to sign a leasing contract for Dragon Ridge Mountain with a representative from this village collective. The process for leasing the barren land turned out to be more complicated than he had anticipated.
For several consecutive days, Lu Xiaoran had been busy running around handling various procedures. Once he finally completed all the necessary paperwork, he took a taxi to the location of Dragon Ridge Mountain.
He wanted to take a look at the mountain's environment and also replicate the safe house there. After getting out of the taxi, Lu Xiaoran walked south along a yellow dirt road.
In the distance, he could see several barren hills lining the southern horizon. It was hard to tell which one was Dragon Ridge Mountain. The peaks looked quite similar, with large rocky surfaces exposed and little vegetation in sight, giving off an air of desolation.
Just as Lu Xiaoran was pondering this, a village appeared not far ahead.
