Mu Feng was also very happy and took the initiative to help move the stool to the rooftop.

The lunch is quite sumptuous with nine dishes and one soup. After eating, I had a cup of homemade milk tea, which made me feel as happy as a god.

"Sister-in-law, this drink tastes better than Ai Shangni's!"

"That's right." Jiu Jin was very proud and complacent, "There's nothing my girl won't do, except what she doesn't want to do."

Mu Feng believed it without a doubt and praised it to the sky.

Seeing that he was sweet-talking and praised his own little girl, Jiujin finally had a better impression of him and was not so repulsive.

At this time, a crew member appeared on the deck below and made a few gestures to them.

Yu Linlang raised her eyebrows, "They said they found a floating corpse ahead and asked if we want to salvage it."

Mu Feng was stunned. "A corpse floating in the Bian River? Could there be another murder?"

"That has nothing to do with us." Jiu Jin snorted, "My master has resigned."

Don't bother me anymore.

Yu Linlang stood up and walked to the railing, made a few gestures below, and the crew hurried away.

Mu Zhao walked up to her and asked, "Did you go to salvage?"

"Well, let's take a look." I don't know who the poor drowning person is, but since I've seen him, I might as well pull him out and take a look. It's not a big deal anyway.

Yu Linlang was about to go down and take a look. She turned around and saw a child practicing calligraphy under a parasol. She then called on everyone else to go down together so as not to disturb her diligent and hardworking disciple.

When they arrived at the bow deck, they found that the floating corpse had been salvaged and several boatmen were surrounding him and observing him.

Seeing Yu Linlang and her group arrive, Manager Yang hurriedly stepped forward to greet them, "Miss, Sir, it doesn't look like a floating corpse. There's still some temperature on the body, so it looks like it's not dead."

Yu Linlang walked forward to take a look, then squatted down and patted him lightly on the chest and abdomen. The man suddenly turned sideways and spit out two mouthfuls of water, then opened his eyes in a daze.

His eyes are quite clear and he looks like a boy of eighteen or nineteen years old.

Yu Linlang looked at him with a smile, "Young man, where are you from?"

The young man sat up slowly with confused eyes, his gaze fell on all of them, looked around, and finally landed on Yu Linlang's face, "It was you who saved me, young lady."

Yu Linlang raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Are you crazy? Look at me, I am so weak and unable to take care of myself, do I think I can save you and get you on the boat?"

Mu Feng and the others twitched their lips, repeatedly chewing on the words "weak and unable to take care of herself", and secretly spat in their hearts.

"Sorry." The young man replied hesitantly, seeming a little at a loss.

Yu Linlang pointed at a few boatmen and said, "They are your saviors."

The young man hurriedly bowed to express his gratitude, then started coughing violently, confusing the boatmen, and waved his hands several times.

Mu Feng noticed the boatmen's situation, and quietly approached his brother and asked in a low voice, "Brother, are they all deaf and dumb?"

Mu Zhao nodded. "The Dafeng Chamber of Commerce is very famous in the shipping industry in the Jiangnan area. The Chamber of Commerce has recruited many disabled people with physical disabilities. It started out as a charity and is very famous."

Mu Feng asked quietly, "Then this Chamber of Commerce is opened by my sister-in-law?"

Mu Zhao glanced at him.

You could say this brother is stupid, but sometimes he does have some good eyesight. But if you say he is smart, he always makes stupid mistakes which is a headache.

"In short, don't cause trouble and be quiet along the way."

Mu Feng retorted angrily, "Brother, I'm very honest." His brother responded with a chuckle and did not say anything else.

As for the young man, it took him a while to recover from the dizziness.

Manager Yang walked up to him with a kind look in his eyes and asked, "Where are you from, sir? Where are you going?"

He was answered by a deafening rumbling of his stomach.

The young man was a little embarrassed, not daring to raise his head, and timidly said, "My mind is a little confused, I just know that I was walking on the shore just fine before... Oh, by the way, a masked bandit with a knife appeared next to me."

He suddenly lowered his head and touched the things on his body, and his face instantly became very ugly.

Manager Yang comforted him, "Don't look for it, young man. They are just some material possessions. You are lucky to be able to save your life. When we saw you on the water, we thought you were a floating corpse."

"Which shore did you fall into the water?" Yu Linlang suddenly asked, "What's your name?"

"Bian, on the bank of the Bian River."

"I know it's the Bian River. The Bian River covers a very wide area. Did you land in the capital or in Ancheng? Which street and which river was it? When did you land in the water?"

The boy was a little at a loss. He glanced at her timidly and opened his mouth for a long time without saying anything.

"Why is it so difficult to answer such basic information?" Yu Linlang smiled, but there was no warmth in her eyes.

"Who are you? I've asked you three times."

"Fire, Flame, my name is Flame." The young man answered stutteringly, with a somewhat weak look on his face.

"If you can't answer, then go down." Yu Linlang stood up and said calmly, "You should be able to float, so it shouldn't be difficult for you to swim back by yourself."

The young man named Huoyan was so anxious that tears were about to fall from his eyes. He never expected that the bright-looking girl in front of him would be so difficult to deal with. She wanted to throw him back into the water after just a few words.

Are you kidding me?

With his current physical strength and endurance, how could he swim back to the shore? Falling into the water would be a dead end.

"Girl, didn't you save me?"

"At first I thought you were a boatman who came out to fish for a living, but you don't look like one." Although Yu Linlang is not suspicious, she is good at making plans. Anyone who appears out of character is classified as a conspiracy theorist by her.

When I come out to travel around the south of the Yangtze River, I don't want to play any weird psychological tricks with others along the way.

She has the strength and financial resources, so she can just throw away all the illogical things and not worry too much.

If it's a corpse, there's no need to worry. Dead people are the most honest. We'll just have to wait for it to dock and send someone to take it to the charity cemetery to show our appreciation for the encounter.

But this boy was alive, and living people had infinite possibilities. Plus, his incoherent speech made people suspicious.

"I, I fell into the water half a day ago." The young man was startled and spoke out quickly, reporting the exact location where he fell into the water, racking his brains to think of the time he fell into the water.

He pounded his head, "My head hurts a bit, probably because of the water that fell nearby. Girl, you don't want me to describe the gangster's appearance, do you? I really didn't see it clearly. Sorry, I didn't lie to you, it's real!"

Yu Linlang stared at him for a long time, counting on her fingers, and nodded, "Based on the speed of the water flow and the wind direction in the past two days, it is possible that it has drifted here. You make sense."

The young man felt a layer of white sweat all over his body, and his eyes were wide open as he stared at the smiling woman in front of him.

I felt like there was a giant beast hiding under her smile, which could swallow me up in one bite if I wasn't careful.

In front of her, the consequences of talking nonsense would probably be disastrous.

"I, I didn't lie to you." He stuttered as he explained, "I learned a little bit of pharmacology from my master for a few years. I went to the waterside just to find a hydroponic herb to use as medicine." (End of this chapter)
