Chapter 106 - 106 Attracting Lightning and Rain
106 Attracting Lightning and Rain
Lin Qin slightly sobbed when she heard her brother’s words. She could not control her tears which almost rolled down her cheeks.
Lin Zheng became anxious and asked, “Sister, did someone bully you? Why are you crying?”
However, Lin Zheng was not like this in the past. Just three years ago, his sister married and moved to the city, so no one had protected or treated him well since she left.
Still, Lin Zhen’s entire personality had changed. After all, he and his sister were twins and naturally had a good relationship.
Lin Qin wiped her tears with a tissue and said, “Didn’t you hear what you said? I’m crying because what you said touched me. You’ve grown up, Zheng. Although your brother-in-law is somewhat of a b*stard, he studied hard and took the elementary scholar exams.
“Also, his family is rather influential and has a good reputation in the local area. No one can bully me. Don’t overthink it, okay?”
“You’re right,” Lin Zheng replied. He was still straightforward, so he did as his twin sister told him.
Lin Qin would not have thought about all this either. She only thought of it because her brother had found someone to work for. Unbeknownst to Lin Qin, her twin brother would follow the tide and become an influential person in the future.
When that time came, Lin Zheng held up the Heavens and the Earth for his elder twin sister. No one dared to look down on her. Lin Zheng became Lin Qin’s pride and joy in the future.

Meanwhile, Su Binglan looked toward the sky as she walked home. She instinctively moved her fingers, wanting to attract lightning and rain. However, she currently did not have enough spiritual essence.
She also drank more spiritual spring water those past few days and looked for any medicinal herbs that could help her quickly raise her spiritual essence.
…
The Su family was very busy over the next few days while Su Binglan drew some blueprints for her new shops.
Still, she would go to the back of the mountains to gather more ingredients whenever she had the time. She would also have to go to town, deliver goods to Drunken Clouds, and set up her stall to sell candied chestnuts and tofu.
Drunken Cloud’s business only kept improving while Zhu’s Guests constantly declined. A few days later, one of Zhu’s Guests’ customers ate one of their dishes and got poisoned, causing the customer to die. Therefore, the authorities shut down Zhu’s Guests and reprimanded the Zhu family.
Even Mr. w.a.n.g of Drunken Cloud was puzzled about what had happened. “Did the Zhus offend someone, and that’s why they ended up like this?”
“I’m not sure, but it truly is bizarre,” The waiter replied.
It was indeed strange. The Zhus had suffered tremendously after offending Su Binglan. She did not have to do anything, yet the Zhus had ended up in such a sorry state.
When Su Binglan went to town, she blinked with curiosity when she saw the sealed Zhu’s Guests. It saved her the trouble of getting her revenge on them. There was no need for Su Binglan to do much, and the Zhu family would fall into nothingness.
She had heard from the townsfolk that Master Zhu had fallen from his carriage. Then coupled with the steward drowning in the river and Zhu’s Guests getting shut down, Master Zhu died from shock.
Su Binglan shook her head and sighed with emotion. Still, she could not care about these things because she had recently been busy doing many things.
She gave Lin Zheng the blueprints she drew along with some money. Then she told him to look for someone who could bring her blueprints to life.
Lin Zheng would take whatever tasks his boss gave him seriously.
…
Later that night, Su Binglan had dinner with her parents and went home. After Luo Jin’an fell asleep, Su Binglan brewed herself some medicine. She had encountered that medicinal herb by accident on the back of the mountain, which could a.s.sist her in quickly improving her spiritual essence.
However, its effects were limited, so she prepared to use it that very night.
Although the villagers said there were wild animals on the back of the mountain, Su Binglan had yet to see one even though she had been there many times.
She drank the medicine along with two bowls of spiritual spring water. Su Binglan felt her body becoming lighter. Then she stretched out a finger as she felt part of her Soul Power get restored.
Then she jumped onto the eaves, looked at the sky, and stretched out her hand, stirring the winds and clouds. Gusts of wind swirled around, causing Su Binglan’s clothes to flutter as light rays lingered around her. She looked like a G.o.ddess from the Nine Heavens.
