The Country-Style Beauty, Chapter 819, Main Text 819—Taking a Chance, Chapter 819—Taking a Chance. Lu Yun nodded, picked up his bowl and took a few sips, then suddenly remembered Huazǐ who had been on duty overnight, and was startled, "Xinlan sister, where is Huazǐ uncle?" "He must have left early. When I woke up, I didn't see him. After breakfast, I checked the window—no response. I guess he stayed up late last night and went straight to bed, still reading his book (QRGE)." Tien Xinlan speculated. When Tie Xinlan saw Lu Yun return to his room, with Huazi not following behind, she asked, "What's going on?" Lu Yun nodded, concerned about Liu Tingting. He quickly finished off the steamed bun in his hands, then picked up the full bowl of porridge that Tie Xinlan had prepared for him and drank it all at once. Tie Xinlan stared at Lu Yun in astonishment, saying, "You're so eager—there's plenty of time even if you return to school now. Isn't there something urgent you need to attend to?" Lu Yun set down the bowl, took a deep breath, and smiled at Tie Xinlan, "Miss Xinlan, I still need to deliver the gun to the elderly Wang lady next door. This trip might take a while—I know how difficult she can be." On hearing this, Tie Xinlan furrowed her brows and asked, "Shall I go with you to see her?" "Lu Yun hurriedly waved his hand, saying, "Don't do that—if you go and knock out two big holes in the walls of her house, the old lady won't just be mad anymore." Seeing Lu Yun's expression was amusing, Tie Xinlan chuckled and asked, "Then, what exactly will happen?" "Lu Yun sneered, "Grandmother would surely hang herself from a crooked pear tree!" Tie Xinlan was so amused by Lu Yun that she forgot to eat her meal, laughing gaily, "How terrifying could it be, really? Well, since she's so afraid of me, I won't follow you. But please try to come back early—don't miss your classes." Lu Yun nodded swiftly, then picked up the rustic gun he had left against the door, and stepped out of the room. Passing through the broken hole in the thatched bathroom wall, Lu Yun slowed his pace, thinking carefully about how to handle the notoriously difficult Old Lady Wang. "Gun for gun," he thought. "If only I had known that Aunt Xinlan could so easily handle Wang Hehui's henchmen, I wouldn't have been such a fool to agree to Old Lady Wang's demands. Now, I'm stuck—am I really going to have to go full-blown dramatic?" It was bound to come. Even though Lu Yun slowed his pace, he soon reached the doorstep of the Old Lady Wang. As he hesitated whether or not to go in, a voice from inside suddenly called out, "Why aren't you coming in? Shall I go and invite you myself?" With a determined breath, Lu Yun pushed the door open and stepped inside. To his eyes, the Old Lady Wang was sitting cross-legged on the bed, still completely bare, as if unchanged from the way she had looked when he had left her last night. Had she been sitting there on the bed all night long? Lu Yun turned his head, not looking at the enticing legs of the old lady Wang, nor at her still proud and full figure, and took a deep breath, saying, "I'm here to return the gun." Then he didn't know what else to say to this old lady Wang. After a long silence, Lu Yun suddenly felt the atmosphere in the room was strange. He turned to look at her—this old lady had remained perfectly still, not even glancing at him, despite having spoken one sentence when he had been outside. Now, she didn't even look at him, let alone say anything. Man, this was perfect—exactly what he'd wanted: to leave this haunted place as soon as possible. "I've placed the gun here. If there's nothing else, I'll go now—I still have classes at school," Lu Yun said, setting the gun down and turning to head out. "But what about the thing you promised me last night?" "Finally, Old Wang spoke up, but her voice sounded as though someone had squeezed her throat—terrible, truly." "Grandma, just let me go! You're already close to being my grandmother now. How can I possibly—?" Lu Yun said anxiously. "So you're saying you're not keeping your word?" "Grandma Wang turned her head to look at Lu Yun, a deep, significant smile playing on her face, as if all Lu Yun needed to do was say a simple no, and she'd start weaving stories about him that would stretch far beyond the village. Lu Yun suddenly stopped in his tracks, listening to Grandma Wang's increasingly threatening words, and sighed, saying, 'Grandma, I actually had no choice but to agree last night. Now that things have settled down, Xinlan is still waiting for me to go back and teach my class...' If Lu Yun simply left now, Grandma Wang would have no choice but to accept it. But what he was truly worried about was how this outspoken, domineering old lady would react when she saw his uncle and aunt—what if she said something utterly embarrassing? Then, no matter how hard he tried, even jumping into the Yellow River wouldn't clear his name. Ms. Wang seemed completely unprepared for Lu Yun to express such words to her. At first startled, her eyes, which had been slightly closed, suddenly opened wide, her gaze cool and steady, and she managed to smile and say, "Lu Yun, since you know my thoughts, why haven't you already taken off your clothes?" Lu Yun was nearly sickened by the old lady's remark—how could such an unseemly thing be said so calmly and with such dignity? Now he finally understood something: he had always prided himself on his thick skin and lack of modesty, but compared to Ms. Wang, he felt utterly insignificant—like a flickering firefly daring to compete with the moon. Lu Yun felt deeply humbled, bowed his head, and immediately noticed the water curtain created by Ms. Wang vigorously pounding the gourd with a cucumber. He murmured, "Didn't I tell you to get the medicine applied? How can I possibly manage now like this?" Lu Yun has now made up his mind—once he decides, he’ll go all out. Taste preferences? Not even a speck of relevance. No one’s going to know that a young guy like me has managed to win over an elderly lady, though that lady still holds undeniable charm. Still, her age is quite evident—this isn’t exactly the story of a rural matron in the 819 chapter! Grandma Wang chuckled lightly, "What's the difference? All I want is to see it with my own eyes. If you don't meet my expectations, even if you try to make it happen, I'll still find you too inexperienced." Come on, Lu Yun nearly broke into a rage. His own assets were top-notch—of course, except for that old man Li, the donkey himself. So he coldly snapped, "You said you'd already watched me in the bathroom earlier, right? So why are you still watching now? Just do it if you want to. If you don't, I've got better things to do than stand here wasting time with you." Lu Yun's tone was quite blunt, yet Grandma Wang seemed completely unfazed. She merely smiled softly and continued, "Lu Yun, don't boast so much. Your assets aren't ordinary—they're quite impressive..." She paused mid-sentence, looking at Lu Yun with a deliberate air of anticipation, her face glowing with a knowing smile, as though she already knew the reason behind his impressive development. Upon hearing this, Lu Yun replied without hesitation, "I know myself well enough—whether they're ordinary or not. I don't need you to keep telling me "It seems we've just received the final ultimatum. Lu Yun and Grandma Wang can't afford to waste any more time. If it were the weekend, heaven knows what they'd do—Lu Yun would never hesitate. But now, Fei Xinlan is still at home waiting for him. If things drag on too long, she'll surely come over to find him. And when she discovers him engaged in something intimate with Grandma Wang, Lu Yun can only imagine what might happen to this delicate, ethereal young woman. Grandma Wang spoke calmly, "Just remove your clothes. The rest will unfold as circumstances dictate." Honestly, what a surprise—Lu Yun was utterly frustrated. For the first time, he'd encountered a woman—someone in her fifties—who wasn't eager to jump right in and had to wait until he was ready. Now, Lu Yun was fully committed. He didn't need anything more than to see the dimensions. No matter how unimpressive he might be, he could still manage to fill Grandma Wang's old thing to the brim. The fact that she wasn't rushing him was exactly what he'd wanted—this way, he could leave the room sooner and escape the strangely tense atmosphere. With that in mind
