"What?" Both Song Tian and Wang Hai shocked after hearing the name of the company.

Lin Hua startled, looking at two of them, she worriedly asked, "Is there something wrong?" She started to panic.

Wang Hai said, "Don't worry, sister, I guarantee that company won't do anything to your brother, " He reassures Lin Hua, and he took out his phone, walks outside.

Lin Hua still worries about her brother, looking at Wang Hai, "Are you sure they won't do anything?" She asked.

Song Tian smiled, "What he said is true, you have to believe him," Song Tian relieved after he heard the name of the company.

Not long after, Wang Hai came back to the restaurant, "Your brother just arrived when I called someone I knew, he's going to be fine, and I told someone to told him to turn his phone on, you can try to call him," He said to Lin Hua.

Lin Hua looked at Wang Hai, she decided to believe him and took her phone out to call her brother, and the call reached, "Xiao Hua, what's up? I'm sorry, earlier my phone's battery is dead. Someone is lending me their charger for me," Lin Qiang voice could be heard on her phone.

Lin Hua wiped the tear on her eyes, relieved, "It's good you're okay, brother," she said.

After talking several minutes, she ended the calls. She stood up and looked at Wang Hai and Song Tian, bowed, "Thank you so much." She said as she's really grateful to Wang Hai.

Wang Hai immediately said, "You don't have to do this, how can I let my brother's friend in trouble?"

Song Tian smiled, "Remember, if you ever got into trouble, don't hesitate to ask me or my brother here," He said as he points his finger to Wang Hai.

Wang Hai said, "That's right!" He puffed out his chest.

Lin Hua smiled, "By the way, I haven't thanked your friend in the company. Help me tell him/her. I'm really grateful." She said.

Song Tian and Wang Hai smiled.

Song Tian didn't see his grandma yet, "Lin Hua, where's my grandma? I didn't see her since we're coming here," He asked.

Lin Hua smile apologetically, "Sorry, I forgot to tell you that she goes outside to get some ingredient. If I met you here, she said to tell you to wait for a bit," She said to Song Tian.

Song Tian laughed, "Alright, I'll just wait then. Fatty Wang, what about you? If you can't wait, you call the delivery first," He said to Wang Hai.

Wang Hai said, "It's fine, I can wait for a little bit."

10 Minutes later, Gao Zhao arrives at her restaurant. Song Tian and Wang Hai ordering the foods.

At the road in the downtown, Lin Qiang drives his car, "Strange, why did the worker there say the debt has been paid off? There's no way someone would be willing to pay other debt for 1 million. It might be Song Tian's friend, Xiao Hua, told me that he's the one who calls someone in the company. I'll have to thanks both of them," Lin Qiang thought in his mind.


Almost an hour later, Lin Qiang arrives at his home, looking at Lin Hua, he handed the golden necklace to her.

Lin Hua looking at her brother, puzzled, "Brother, why you still had the necklace with you? How about the debt?" She asked.

Lin Qiang shook his head, "The worker at that company suddenly said our debt has been paid off. Xiao Hua, did Song Tian and Wang Hai says anything to you?" He asked.

Lin Hua surprised, "Paid off? I didn't know anything about that, Song Tian and Wang Hai also didn't say anything. I only saw Wang Hai called someone, but he only said that you just arrived there and told someone he knew to turn your phone on," She recalled what Wang Hai said to her.

Lin Qiang seems to realized something, he sighed, "Remember this, Xiao Hua. From now on, we owe both of them," He said to Lin Hua.

Lin Qiang planning to sell not only the golden necklace, but he also plans to sell all the land his parents left to pay this debt. He only tells Lin Hua that he's going to sell the golden necklace because he didn't want to make his little sister worries.

At Song Tian's cabin, Song Tian looked at Wang Hai, "Fatty Wang, how much is the debt? I'll pay it," He said.

Wang Hai laughed, "Don't worry about that, it's already settled," He said.

Song Tian said, "Alright, I'll go to downtown and pay it to her myself," He stood up.

Wang Hai immediately stopped Song Tian, "Fine, it's 1 million, brother. I already told my mom about that," Wang Hai said.

How can he let his brother pays the debt? When Wang Hai on his fourth years in elementary school, his family hit the lowest point of their life. All of the so-called friends starting to walk away from them.

His family is being mocked by the so-called friends and didn't response a bit when they're calling for help to them.

Although all of the so-called friends are ignoring them, only Song Tian and his family stood by their side.

"Now that I think about it, we're used to always fight back then," Wang Hai reminisced his childhood.

Even with both of their parent's close ties, Wang Hai and Song Tian always fight to each other.

The reason is only because to prove who's superior between the two of them. Wang Hai shook his head as to how childish both of them back then.

Song Tian looked at Wang Hai seems to be dozed off, he waved his hand "Oy! Are you there? Hello?" He said.

Wang Hai startled, "Ah, I just remember our childhood fight back then," He said.

Song Tian laughed, he also remembers those things.

After several minutes, Song Tian said, "Oh, I remember I have another project I want to build."

Wang Hai looked at Song Tian, "What project?" He asked, curiously.

Song Tian said, "I want to build a warehouse, I want to put all my farm's byproduct in there. Here's the measurement of it" He handed Wang Hai the note when he measured Crop storage.

Wang Hai took the note, "Hmm, okay. You need to make it so the big logistic truck can go inside," He said to Song Tian as he looked at the note.

Wang Hai continued, "Brother, the warehouse itself is already big. Why did you even want to make underground floor below it?" He asked, curiously.

Song Tan laughed, "Who knows. It might be useful in the future," He said.

Wang Hai smiled bitterly, "Alright, just leave it to me. I'm going back now," He bids farewell to Song Tian.

Looking at his watch, Song Tian sighed, "It's still 4 PM? Now what?" He taps his finger on the coffee table, and not long after, his phone rang out.

Song Tian looked at who's calling him and immediately answered, "Hello, mom? What's up?" He said.

"Xiao Tian, I'm going to send Xiao Xia to your place. Mom and dad are going to oversea to attend some business meeting. I can't feel at ease to left her alone at home as Xiao Xue is on vacation with her assistant" Her voice could be heard on the phone.

Song Tian said, "Alright, you don't have to drive her to my place. I'll go to pick her up."

"She's already on her way to your place with Su Wen. Xiao Tian, how's your farm doing? Did you still have money? If not, mom will send you," she said.

Song Tian could tell that his mother is anxious about him. Song Tian smiled bitterly, "No mom, I still have a lot of money from my saving," He said.

After talked for several minutes, the calls ended. Song Tian walks to the chicken coop.

Arrived, Song Tian put all of his chicken inside. He pondered for a moment, "I think it's time to breed the chicken."

Song Tian picks one rooster and one hen. He walks to the breeding room and gently put both of the chickens inside.

Song Tian closed the breeding room's door and goes outside, "Oh, I forgot to check my stats after completing the second quest" He said as he opened the stats.

Song Tian looked at his own stats and surprised to see his stats slightly increase, "Out all of the stats, my mental strength increased the most. Now I'm level 3, I have to wait until tomorrow to get the third quest," He muttered.

At 5PM, Song Tian could hear the sounds of the car, "It must be Xiao Xia," He stood up from the couch and goes outside.

"Brother!" Song Xia neglected her suitcase and ran to pouch his arm followed by Su Wen behind her as the car is leaving the area.

Song Tian smiled, patting his little sister head and looked at Su Wen, "Su Wen, I'm sorry for troubling you. I'll send you home after dinner," He said.

Song Xia said, "No, brother, Sister Wen is staying over here with me."

Song Tian surprised, looked at Su We, "Really? Su Wen, did your parents okay with this?" He couldn't help but asked since he saw how her dad on Sphere.

Su Wen laughed, "It's okay, my mom already agrees with this, and my dad can't say anything to her," She said.

Song Tian gulped, after hearing what Su Wen's said, "Her mom must be really fierce huh," He thought in his mind as he led both of them inside.

Song Xia opened her suitcase and took her laptop, "Hehe, now I can play finally play all night" She giggled.

Song Tian and Su Wen shook their heads.

Song Tian said, "There's nothing much to do in this cabin at this hour, we're going to the local market at night. There's a lot of food and games in there."

Su Wen eyes lit up, "Oh, is this the night market you told us yesterday?" She asked.

Song Tian laughed, "Yes, yesterday me and Fatty Wang hang out there until 4 Am," He said.

Both of them surprised to heard that, "4 AM? Song Tian, is it really lively at that place?" Su Wen couldn't help but ask.

Song Tian said, "It is, you'll see it once we get there. I'm going to Grandma Zhao to notify both of you are coming, since we're going to have dinner at her place," He goes to Gao Zhao's restaurant.

"We're coming too," Song Xia and Su Wen said. Su Wen also felt terrible if she didn't come since they're going to have dinner at someone's place.

At the chicken, Gao Zhao is currently preparing the foods for people on her restaurant, suddenly she heard Song Tian's calling, she smiled, "He's early," she walks to the front and saws Song Tian, Song Xia, and Su Wen.

Three of them immediately greets her, and Song Tian said, "Grandma, sorry to implicate you. My sister and Su Wen are staying over at my place, so I came here to tell you that all of us planning to have dinner at your place if you don't mind it."

Gao Zhao smiled, "Of course I don't mind, the more, the merrier. I'll prepare the foods for all of us after I close the restaurant," She said.

How can she's not happy? After settling down on this mortal world, Gao Zhao always had dinner alone ever since her husband still on the cultivation world to look for a way to revives their son and daughter-in-law and her granddaughter studies overseas.

Now, Gao Zhao founds out that she that her family is currently live in this country and her grandson live nearby, she couldn't help but feels blessed.

Su Wen said, "Grandma, I'll help you to cook the food."

Song Xia also said, "Grandma, me too!"

Song Tian interjected, "Xiao Xia, you just have to watch them, or the foods will turn into desserts," He said, and all of them laughed.

7 PM, at Gao Zhao house, all of them sat on the dining chair.

Gao Zhao looked at Su Wen, "Xiao Wen, where did you learn to cook? I didn't expect this chicken to be so good. You even had some spice prepared with you," Gao Zhao said as she took another bite at the tender chicken meat.

Su Wen smiled, "I've learned cooking since I was small, it's been my hobby ever since. I learned this chicken recipe from my mom's workers. It's called Tandoori Chicken, this dish is originated from India," She said.

Song Tian also like this chicken as he already ate a lot of them, "Su Wen, since you're really good at cooking, you're planning to open a restaurant?" He asked.

Su Wen shook her head, she said, "No, I only like to cook to make peoples around me happy from eating a variety of good cuisine. But, making a restaurant is too much hassle for me."

Song Xia said, "Sister Wen, the strawberry cakes yo make last time on the video, I also want to eat it."

Su Wen smiled, "Alright, but we have to wait until your brother's strawberry is ready to harvest. It had different taste when I try to cook it with other strawberries," She said.

After talking for an hour, all of them bids farewell to Gao Zhao. On the road, Song Tian felt his phone vibrating, he took out his phone to see who's calling him and it was Wang Hai.

Song Tian answered the call, "What's up, brother?" He said.

"Brother, my father's already approved the proposal. I will send it to you after this," Wang Hai said as his voice could be heard on the phone.

Song Tian said, "Alright. If you're not busy, why not come here? I'm going to take my little sister and Su Wen to the local market tonight."

"Alright, wait for me," Wang Hai said as the calls ended.

Song Xia looked at her brother, "Brother, is that Brother Hai?" She asked.

Song Tian laughed, "Yes, he will come with us tonight. I also had some business with him," He said.

Song Xia eyes lit up, "Brother, are you going to revive your gang back in high school with him?" She asked.

Song Tian smiled bitterly, "Of course not, I don't have any time for that thing. I want to build the warehouse to store byproduct of my farm and ask him to build it," He said.

Su Wen looked at both brother and sister talking, "Song Tian, did your farm already produced another crop?" She couldn't help but ask as she knew last time Song Tian already harvested all his strawberries.

Song Tian laughed, "Yes, earlier I harvest 50 cabbages, and I also had 60 eggs from the chickens," he said.

Su Wen shocked, "What? 60 eggs? Didn't you only have 5 hens and roosters? How can you already had that much eggs?" She asked.

Song Tian smiled, "Who knows? It might be magic hehe I'll let you collect the eggs tomorrow," He said.

Several moments later, Wang Hai arrived at Song Tian's farm. He stepped out of the car.

At the living room, Wang Hai put the plastic bag and smiled when looking at Song Xia glanced curiously at it.

Wang Hai laughed, "Since I know you're here, I bought these cakes on my way here. Xiao Yi, don't forget to share it with Su Wen," He said.

Song Xia eyes lit up as she picks the plastic bag immediately, "Thank you, Brother Hai," She said.

Wang Hai nodded, and he looked at Song Tian, took out the paper from his bag, "Brother, this is the estimated cost of it," He said as he handed the paper to Song Tian.

Song Tian took the paper from Wang Hai, looked at the content inside it, he nodded his head, "Alright, I'll transfer it immediately," He said as he took out his phone to transfer $500.000 to Wang Hai's account.

Song Tian looked at his current account, "Now I had 1.3 million left after I finished the design for the greenhouse, it's going to decrease. I need to think a way to increase my incomes," He thought.

At 10 PM, all of them arrives at the local market. Song Xia and Su Wen surprised to see a lot of people.

Song Xia waving her hand to her brother, "Brother, I want to try this," She said as she pointed at the street food stall.

Song Tian smiled and walks toward Song Xia and Su Wen, he looked at the stall's owner, "Boss, get two portions for me and one portion for my little sister and my friend here," He said as he pointed to Song Xia and Su Wen.

Song Xia pouted, "Brother, not fair! Both of us can eat more portions than you think," She said.

Su Wen blushed, "I'll order two portions too," she said.

The stall's owner laughed, "Alright, wait for a minute, " He said as he cooked the foods for three young people in his stall.

Song Xia looked at her left and right, "Brother, where's Brother Hai?" She asked as she didn't see Wang Hai.

Song Tian laughed, "He's probably wandering around to look for foods," He said.

Not long after, Wang Hai walks toward them with a snack on his hand.

Song Tian looked at Wang Hai, said, "See, I told you he's definitely wandering around this area to look for foods" He pointed to Wang Hai.

All of them laughed, and at midnight, all of them already satisfied exploring the stalls in the local market.

Song Tian looked at his little sister and Su Wen, "Do you guys can continue? If not, I'll send you to the cabin first. I'm going to my friend restaurant in this area," He said.

Song Xia shook her head, "I still had some energy left, let's go to your friend restaurant" She said but stopped and looked at Su Wen, "How about you, Sister Wen? If you're tired, we can go back first," she asked.

Su Wen laughed, "No, how can I sleep at this hour? Remember, yesterday we're playing all the way until 3 AM," she said.

Song Xia laughed, "Oh, I forgot about that," She said.

Song Tian shook his head, and all of them goes to Lin Qiang's restaurant.

Arrived at the restaurant, Song Tian is looking for an empty table for all of them, and there are two empty tables.

Song Tian leads all of them to the empty table. Sat on the chair, Song Tian said, "Wait for me here, I'm going to call my friend to order some foods" He stood up as he walks to the kitchen.

At the kitchen, Song Tian saw Lin Qiang and Lin Hua still preparing the food.

Lin Qiang looked at who's coming, "Oh, Xiao Tian. Wait for a moment."

Song Tian laughed, "Don't rush, I'll go to my table. There's still some Carolina Reaper, right?" He asked.

Lin Hua laughed, "Don't worry about that, Song Tian, there's still a lot of it since there's not a lot of people can handle it," she said.

Song Tian walks to the table, "They're still cooking for another guest, we have to wait for a bit."

After several minutes of talking, Lin Hua is looking for Song Tian's table.

Looking at who's Song Tian coming with, she's surprised, "Sister Wen?" She asked.

Su Wen turned her head and saw who's calling her, startled, "Sister Hua? Are you working here? Where have you been? Why is your phone always turned off?" She asked.

Lin Hua smiled apologetically, "This is my brother's restaurant. After my mother passes away, I'm helping my brother here. I'm sorry, I already sold my phones and didn't have a way to contact you," she said.

Su Wen shocked to hear what Lin Hua have been through, "I'm sorry, I didn't know your mother already passes away. Still, you can at least come to my house so I can help a bit," She sighed.

Lin Hua sighed, "I didn't want to implicate you, Sister Wen."

Su Wen feels sad to know the condition of her friend. She and Lin Hua have been a friend since middle school.

Back then, Su Wen didn't have any friend she can trust. Ever since all the peoples around her age only coming closer to get the opportunity since she's considered coming from the wealthiest family.

On her first year in middle school, all the student in the class tries to get closer to her, but she ignored all of them.

But, there's only one student in her class who's not even bothered to look at her, and it was Lin Hua.

At afternoon break, all the student already left the classroom for a lunch break. Su Wen gets invited to eat with the student, but only smiled and reject them politely.

Su Wen walks closer to Lin Hua, "Hey, why are you here? Isn't it more lively at the canteen?" She asked.

Lin Hua shook her head, "I already brought some lunch with me" She said as she took out her lunchbox under the table.

Looking at Lin Hua took out her lunchbox, Su Wen glanced curiously, "Did your mom cook it for you?" She asked.

Lin Hua opened her lunchbox and shook her head, "No, I cook this myself since my mom is on the hospital. I wish I can get permission to leave the school temporarily so I can take care of my mom. But my mom didn't want me to," She sighed.

Su Wen surprised to hear that Lin Hua cook by herself and her mom condition, "I'm sorry to hear that. I hope your mom gets better."

Lin Hua smiled, "Thank you. You ask me about the canteen, but I always see you eating lunch here," she said.

Su Wen said, "I don't want to go there, it's too noisy. I also had my lunchbox with me."

Lin Hua, "Oh, no wonder when the lunchtime, you never go outside," she said.

Now Su Wen didn't know what to say, she smiled awkwardly.

Lin Hua noticed the change on Su Wen's face, laughed, "Why don't you bring your lunchbox here? Let's compare our foods," she said.

Su Wen eyes lit up, "Alright," She said as she walks to her table to get her lunchbox. She's excited to know someone other than her can cook by herself.

In her school, most of the student also came from a wealthy family, and most of them only eat their lunch at the canteen.

This is also the first time someone wants to discuss the foods with her as the other student only talks about branded stuff, Su Wen founds the topic is way too dull.

Bringing her lunchbox to Lin Hua, she said, "Here's my lunchbox, let's open them together to compare it," She pointed at her lunchbox.

Lin Hua laughed, "Alright, sit down first. Even if your lunchbox is better than me, it's still your mom who cooks it," She said as she opened her lunchbox.

Su Wen said, "Hmph, I'm the one who cooks it," She looked at Lin Hua confidently, and she opened her lunchbox.

When their lunchboxes opened, both of them surprised looking at the lunchbox in front of them.

Su Wen looking at Lin Hua's lunchbox, "Wow, is that Loco Moco? Where did you learn it?" She asked.

Lin Hua answered, "I learned it from my neighbors. Her mom came from Hawaii and look at your food, isn't that Enchilada? What filling in there," She said as she pointed at Su Wen's lunchbox.

Su Wen laughed, "It's filled with minced chicken meat and ground beef with some mixed cheese," she said.

After that day, Su Wen always hanging out with Lin Hua to talks about the foods.

As time goes, both of them became best friend and goes to the same high school.

After graduating from high school, Su Wen lost contact with Lin Hua. She tries to look at Lin Hua's home, but the neighbor said that their families already move to another place.

Back at Lin Qiang's restaurant, Song Tian surprised to see Su Wen and Lin Hua, "Both of you knew each other?" He asked.

Lin Hua laughed, "Yes, we've been a friend since middle school," she said.

Wang Hai also surprised, "It is really a tiny world," He muttered.

Lin Hua said, "Oh, I forgot to gave you the menu and paper" She handed the menu and paper to them.

After several moments later, the foods arrives.

Su Wen looked at Lin Hua, "Sister Hua, why don't you sit with us? Most customers already left," She said eagerly as she's really missing Lin Hua.

Lin Hua smiled, "Alright, after I to wash the dishes, I'll come here," She said, and she walks to the kitchen.

Finishing all their foods, Lin Hua came with her brother. Lin Hua leads Su Wen and Song Xia to another table, "Alright, we're going to discuss the girl's related stuff. Don't mind us," She said.

Song Tian and Wang Hai laughed.

Lin Qiang looked at both young man in front of him and suddenly bowed, "Xiao Tian, Xiao Hai, thanks to both of you. My family really grateful to both of you and I'll repay it once I had the money," He said.

Song Tian said, "No, brother. If you had to thanks, it's my brother here who help you. I didn't do anything."

Wang Hai said, "It's alright, Brother Lin, you don't need to think about repaying."

Lin Qiang said, "How can I do that? It's 1 Million, I will think a way to repay you in one year, just give me a time."

Wang Hai shook his head, "No no no, you don't have to do that Brother Lin. It's fine," He said.

Lin Qiang keep insists, "Don't worry, I plan to sell my parents land. I'm just waiting for the price to rise and after that, I'm going to rent this shop of mine," He said.

Wang Hai didn't know that the man in front of him is so persistent, "How about this, my dad's company is kinda short on the logistics department. You can work there slowly so you can pay off the debt."

Wang Hai continued, "While you work there, you didn't have to sell the lands, and you can rent it to someone to get more income. Isn't that better in the long term? We're going to cut 10% from your monthly salary, so you can slowly pay off the debt while also earned some money," He said.

Lin Qiang puzzled, "Logistic? Only 10% and I can slowly pay off the debt? Xiao Hai, I know logistic salary didn't amount that much because I have my friend working in some logistic company," He said.

Wang Hai laughed, "It's different, what I mean by that is we're short on the logistics manager. You don't have to worry about working experience, we'll get you trained in 3 months."

Lin Qiang shocked, "Xiao Hai, are you sure about this? I can't just work there and suddenly take such high position," He said as he shook his head.

Wang Hai smiled, "Don't worry about that, it's also relieved some burden from my work since I'm the one who's managing all the logistics there and people there can't say anything since it's my dad company. Brother Lin, tomorrow, I'll pick you up to the company."

Wang Hai continued, "I'm going to stay over at my brother's place after I wake up. I'll pick you up. Just tell me your home address," He said as he also exchanged contact number with Lin Qiang.

Lin Qiang eyes red, bowed, "Once again, thank you," He said as he didn't know what else he can say to Wang Hai.

Wang Hai smiled, "It's okay, Brother Lin. Since you're my brother's friend, you're also my friend. I also heard from my brother that you're the one who's looking the buyer for my brother," He said.

Song Tian smiled as he's happy to see Lin Qiang's problem finally resolved.

At 3 AM, all of them leave the local market.

Lin Hua wrapping up the restaurant, and she saw her brother's expression is better than usual, "Brother, what's happening?" She asked.

Lin Qiang smiled, "Xiao Hua, from now on. You don't have to help me work at this restaurant anymore. From now on, you don't have to work until late night anymore, and you can enjoy your life as you're supposed to be," He said.

Lin Hua surprised, "What? Why? I want to help you. I don't want to be a burden in our family," she said.

Lin Qiang shook his head, "No, that's not what I mean. Tomorrow, we're going to rent this restaurant and we also going to rent the land our parents gave us," He said.

Before Lin Hua said anything, Lin Qiang continued, "Wang Hai offered me a high position job in his dad's company. Tomorrow, I'm going with him. Finally, I don't have to drag you on our family's debts anymore," He said.

Lin Qiang finally explaining all the matters to his little sister.

Lin Hua shocked to heard that, "I can't even imagine how can we ever repay Wang Hai," She sighed.

At Song Tian's cabin, Wang Hai and Song Xia immediately go into each perspective guest room the moment they've arrived. Since there are two guestrooms on the first floor.

Song Tian looked at Su Wen, "Aren't you sleepy yet?" He asked.

Su Wen shook her head, "It's my first time staying over at a friend's house other than Lin Hua. So I'm kinda nervous," She said.

Song Tian laughed, "What is there to be nervous about? I want to collect some chicken eggs before I go to sleep, do you want to come with me?" He said.

Su Wen eyes lit up, "Sure," She nodded her head eagerly.
