A strange disease infected everyone in the Li Clan Village, and the people of Zhang Clan Village thought it was a punishment by the River God.
While this seemed absolutely ridiculous and foolish to Ning Huanxin, for the people of Zhang Clan Town, they still believed that what they did back then wasnât wrong.
Ning Huanxin didnât know how to console Auntie Zhang, so she left Zhang Yunshuâs room. Jiang Lixing had already headed back to rest, and there werenât many people left in the Siheyuan.
Ning Huanxin decided to head out of the courtyard on her own. With a heavy heart, she walked on the cobbled streets.
The Zhang Clan Village from decades ago had become Zhang Clan Town. There were many more residents living here, and the town was even thriving more prosperously.
Ning Huanxin believed in the existence of spirits and souls in this world, but she didnât believe there was anything like a âRiver Godâ in that river.
But what exactly caused the entire Li Clan Village to be infected with such a severe disease that turned into an epidemic? And what made everyone in the Zhang Clan Village lose their minds and humanity and bury an entire village?
Was it simply fear towards the River God? Or just fear of the disease?
As she walked, Ning Huanxin unknowingly ended up outside a tavern in town. Suddenly, she saw a familiar figure.
It was Wang Nianping!
âDirector Wang!â
Ning Huanxin called out instinctively.
Hearing her voice, Wang Nianping stopped in his tracks. He turned around and looked at Ning Huanxin with a helpless expression. âIâve told you many times that Iâm just an assistant director. You can just call me Brother Wang.â
Wang Nianping had always kept a low profile and was very professional; he was even humble to the production team.
âBrother Wang.â
Ning Huanxin couldnât help but smile. âYou arenât a big director now, but you definitely will be one in the future, and youâll even be one of the best directors in the industry!â
After hearing Ning Huanxinâs words, Wang Nianping couldnât help but smile. âYou little girl, you sure are a sweet talker.â
âIâm speaking the truth! Iâm not trying to flatter you!â
Ning Huanxin blinked. She saw Wang Nianping was carrying a bottle of wine in his hand. She couldnât help but stare at it a little longer. From what she knew, Wang Nianpingâs alcohol tolerance wasnât very good, and he wouldnât usually drink while he was filming.
âBrother Wang, what are you going to do? Are you having drinks?â
Ning Huanxin asked curiously. However, Wang Nianping smiled rather mysteriously and spoke, âIâm giving it to someone. Getting a story in exchange for a bottle of wine, it sure is a win for me no matter what!â
âHm?â
Upon hearing Wang Nianpingâs words, Ning Huanxin couldnât help but feel a little curious. She suddenly recalled that Wang Nianping had previously mentioned to her about the incident of people getting buried alive, which meant that he also knew about it. Perhaps he knew more than she did.
Could it beâŠ
Everything he knew was by exchanging this bottle of wine?
âBrother Wang, I also enjoy listening to stories. Bring me along too!â
Ning Huanxin tilted her head and started acting cute to Wang Nianping.
Wang Nianping looked at Ning Huanxin. âLittle brat, can you drink?â
His own alcohol tolerance was not very good, so he couldnât really guarantee that he could get the other person drunk, but with one more person, his chances would increase!
âThat is my forte! I, Little Huanxin of Lan Dian, am famous for not getting drunk even after a thousand cups! I will never fall!â
Talking about alcohol, Ning Huanxin straightened her back and had an âI can do it, let me do itâ expression on her face.
âAlright then! Wait a minute for me!â

Wang Nianping passed the bottle of wine in his hand to Ning Huanxin. He turned around and headed back into the tavern and came back with another bottle of wine.
Ning Huanxin: âŠ
Director Wang is awesome! Way too awesome!
âLetâs go!â
Wang Nianping probably didnât notice Ning Huanxinâs face full of surprise as he carried the two bottles of wine and gestured Ning Huanxin to follow him.
