The Mightiest Little Peasant

The days passed.

During the day, he was busy with work, and at night, he cultivated with Qin Xiangyi. It was a delightful life.

He received news from Tang Village that the construction of the new house was completed. Tang Hao brought Qin Xiangyi there to look, and he got busy with the renovation.

After all, Tang Village was his hometown. He would return to stay there for a while whenever he had time.

Haotian Tower was also taking shape, and it was now the tallest building in Westridge. Anyone in the downtown area could spot the magnificent skyscraper instantly.

As for the movie, it was raking in sixty to seventy million yuan per day, even after two weeks it was released.

In early August, Liu Bingyao’s album was finally released and began to make the charts.

She became a trending topic on Weibo, Tieba, and other major social websites.

The leaders of her fan clubs gathered her fans and started to boost Liu Bingyao’s rank in all the charts.

Tang Hao also went to vote. He sent out red packets to boost everyone’s morale.

“Midsummer Snow,” Liu Bingyao’s new song, took over every hit song chart one by one. It had an overwhelming advantage over all the other songs.

At the same time, it also set off a wave of excitement.

The song successfully dominated all the hit song charts on its first day of release.

That was the second time that Liu Bingyao had topped all the charts. It caused quite a stir, and all the major media outlets reported it.

She became busier after the album was released, participating in many variety shows to promote her album.

“I heard that… you’re going to hold a concert?” A variety show host asked her.

“Yep! It’s going to be in September! We’re already preparing for it!” Liu Bingyao nodded and smiled.

The host smiled. “Congratulations in advance! Oh, right, Bingyao, do you have any thoughts or words that you want to tell the audience?”

“Yes! I want to thank the fans who have always supported me!” Liu Bingyao said.

As she said that, she bowed to the camera.

“Is there anything else?” The host asked.

“Also… I want to thank someone. He was the one who helped me walk down this path. It was also because of his support and encouragement that I was able to persevere.”

“Oh, then he deserves a special mention. Can I ask if they’re male or female?”

She sounded quite gossipy when she said that.

Liu Bingyao blushed slightly and said, “He’s a former classmate!”

“Then your classmate should be watching this show. Do you have anything else to say?”

“I want to tell him that he must come and watch my concert!” As she said that, she looked at the camera.

Seeing that, Tang Hao was surprised.

He put down his tablet and looked at the package on the table. It was from Liu Bingyao.

He carefully opened the package. There was a concert ticket inside, and it was one of the best seats.

There was also a small note inside. He opened it and saw her beautiful handwriting.

“Remember to come and watch the concert!”

She also drew a happy face.

Tang Hao was stunned for a long time when he saw that happy face.

Almost a year had passed in the blink of an eye.

He vividly remembered that time in the car when she asked him if she could be an idol.

Now, she had become a popular singer who was going to have her first concert.

He smiled, put down the note, picked up his phone, and sent her a message, telling her that he would definitely be there.

Soon, he received her reply: [Yes! I’ll be waiting for you!]

Days passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was almost September, the start of the new semester.

He thought of Thea again.

The last time he saw her was five months ago. They remained in contact even after she left. However, she stopped contacting him two months ago.

Before they lost contact, she had mentioned that there was some trouble over there. She told him not to worry and that things would be fine soon.

Tang Hao was not too worried about her because she was very powerful. She would be able to handle Perfected Persons without trouble.

However, two months had passed, and there was still no news from her.

Tang Hao started to worry.

He paid attention to the news in Merrica during that period. He noticed that many accidents happened, such as a train derailment or a major car pile-up on the freeway.

Such incidents were not uncommon, but it was surprising that they all happened in a concentrated area.

He carefully studied the photos and found some clues.

In one of the photos, Tang Hao found an arm that wore a watch.

He had seen that watch before. It was the watch of Department X.

The owner of the arm was buried under the ruins and was already dead.

According to the news reports, it was caused by a terrorist attack.

Tang Hao chuckled after reading the article. No mundane terrorist attack would have been able to kill a cultivator!

From the news, Tang Hao could guess that something serious was happening in Merrica.

However, he wasn’t worried about Thea’s safety. From the blood jade bead, he could tell that she was fine.

He thought about it and decided to wait for a while. If he did not hear from Thea again, he would go to Merrica to take a look.

That morning, Tang Hao said goodbye to Qin Xiangyi and went to Dragonrock Village to pick up Yan’er.

“Brother Hao!”

Yan’er had been waiting for a long time.

She wore a white T-shirt and a pleated short skirt, revealing a pair of fair and slender legs that were particularly eye-catching.

She did not wear makeup on her face, and she was as pure and beautiful as ever.

She stood under the tree in front of her house and waved at Tang Hao with a bright smile on her face.

Tang Hao stopped the car in front of her and got out of the car. He helped her put her luggage into the trunk and helped her step into the car.

“I’m glad that school is starting soon!”Yan’er said happily.

“What’s so great about that? Aren’t the holidays better?” Tang Hao could not help but laugh.

“Of course!” She raised her face and said in a charming voice, “It’s so boring to stay at home. It’s more interesting at the university. I can also see you more often, Brother Hao!”

Tang Hao laughed, started the car, and drove out.

It was noon when they arrived at Provincial City. Tang Hao brought her to lunch and sent her to the dormitory.

After he returned to his apartment, Tang Hao began to work.

The apartment was unoccupied for two months, and it was dusty. He gave it a thorough cleaning.

Then, he went to the apartment opposite his.

There was a thick layer of dust in Thea’s apartment. It had been five months since anyone had lived there. He also thoroughly cleaned it up.

The next day, he went to class.

Things were a lot different in his third year at university. Teacher Jiang did not teach their class anymore, but Tang Hao did not mind the change. He went to class the same way he did in the past.

Admission season was the busiest period in the university.

The beautiful girls and handsome guys among the freshmen were all the subjects of discussion among the seniors. Cao Fei and the others often discussed any interesting sightings with Tang Hao.

Tang Hao was not interested in that at all.

After five days of classes, it was the weekend. It was also the day of Liu Bingyao’s concert.
