Chapter 39 My Territory (1/2)

The suburb area of Jiangnan City is already reckoned as countryside.

Here is a small yard situated alone beside the river. Inside the yard there is a pear tree. Now is the bloom season of pear flowers. As a wind blows over, pear flowers fall slowly, every of which is dancing gracefully in the wind just like a lively elf.

Gao Ge is sitting in the yard. The yard has been slightly cleaned and some garbage has been thrown away. Yue Xincheng is busy handling the trivial matters for Gao Ge. Holding a book in one hand, Meng Jing is seated under the pear tree with a pear flower in her other hand and her eyes fixed on the book. She wanted to help, but she was stopped by Gao Ge for several times. Hence, she has no choice but to read the book.

“Here is my territory!” Gao Ge sits up with his back straight and laughs out.

This is his first property since he came back to life.

Yue Xincheng takes off his black cap on the head, flicks the dust away on it, and then puts it back on. He looks at Gao Ge who is so excited and feels rather confused. He cannot help asking again, “Boss, what good does it do to buy this house? You spent so much money on it with such a small yard. If you were not my boss, I would doubt whether you are insane.”

Gao Ge laughs.

Meng Jing puts down the book and walks towards him.

“Have you finished reciting the text?” Gao Ge asks.

Meng Jing beams, “It is quite easy.”

“Then how about you reciting the digits of pi to me?” Gao Ge says with a smile.

“Okay. You make a start for me.”

Gao Ge is speechless.

Yue Xincheng is laughing out loud beside them.

The more he looks at Gao Ge and Meng Jing, the more he believes that these two just make a perfect couple.

“You still haven’t realized what the difference between this yard and other places is?” Gao Ge asks seriously.

When he came to the yard for the first time, he felt the power of stars inside his body going seemingly faster. He didn’t figure out the reason behind it. After all, he has not found a way to fully master the power of stars by far.

Even though he had started practicing in the last life, all he had inside his body was strength but now it becomes the power of stars.

The power resource is different from before anyway.

However, it doesn’t influence Gao Ge’s judgement. He clearly realizes that significant changes have happened to this yard.

Yue Xincheng closes his eyes and takes a deep breath.

“What are you doing?” Gao Ge asks.

“I am feeling the difference of this place.”

Gao Ge ignores him.

However, Meng Jing beside him starts to speak.

“I feel that I can recite the text faster here.” Meng Jing says, “It usually takes me at least half an hour to completely recite one text. Now I only spend over 10 minutes to memorize it. When I close my eyes, the text is vivid in my mind.”

Yue Xincheng feels shocked and walks towards her. He takes up the book from her and reads it carefully for a while. Then he shakes his head.

“No, I don’t feel the same way.”

“It’s about the brain. Don’t worry.” Gao Ge says, which breaks Yue Xincheng’s heart.

Yue Xincheng has his hand placed on his heart and returns the book to Meng Jing.
