Chapter 1184: 1158. Really don’t want to leave!
In the darkness, Lun Chuan’s face was faintly illuminated by a distant streetlamp, showing a hint of helplessness: “I still have so matters to deal with.”
Song Tan sighed softly.
In the next mont, shadows gathered in front of her, warm arms enveloped her through the sweater, pulling her into Lun Chuan’s embrace.
The sweater was soft and warm, infused with a light floral scent, not overly sweet, and accompanied by a subtle citrus fragrance, exceptionally pleasant—
It was the scent of Lemon Blossom.
“I can’t bear to leave you,” Lun Chuan’s muffled voice ca through.
In the darkness, no one could see his serious expression, but the slight tightening of his arms revealed his thoughts. Song Tan froze for a mont, then extended her arms to wrap around his slender waist.
Her soft cheek resting in the crook of his shoulder, for once not teasing him, she echoed with a gentle “Mm”: “I know.”
Each hug was intense, and separating was always filled with reluctance. No one but her knew that beneath Lun Chuan’s calm and steady exterior lay a heart that yearned for closeness.
If not, he wouldn’t naturally accept the possibility of staying in the village in the future, making plans without hesitation.
He didn’t even feel any discomfort in this relationship clearly led by Song Tan.
All Song Tan could do was lean into him forcefully, then caress the back of his head:
“It’s okay, I know you have things to do. Just co over when you’re done, can’t you?”
“If you don’t have ti, I’ll co see you in the Imperial City. The high-speed train only takes five hours, I’ll co over.”
The voices of Song Sancheng and Wu Lan ca from the yard, with the furry Daju curiously approaching their feet. The distant countryside was steeped in serene darkness, yet close by, lights shone brightly with liveliness.
Lun Chuan didn’t say anything else, just slowly loosened his hold.
“I’ll visit during the New Year.”
He spoke softly.
Song Tan laughed, her expression tender in the late night, then tiptoed to hug his neck, her cheek gently brushing his slightly cool face in the night breeze: “I know.”
…
When the two returned to the yard, Wu Lan hurriedly asked, “Xiaolun, do you need so pond mud for your flowers? If you do, your uncle can get so for you tomorrow morning.”
Then she asked Song Tan, “Did you pack all that fertilizer? Can you spare so of that nutrient fluid… the strawberries will be nearly ripe by Laba, are there more ripe ones? Tomorrow morning, let Qiaoqiao pick more; take so back to give away if you can’t finish them.”
Song Sancheng also lanted, “Xiaolun, next ti, don’t drive. Take the high-speed train instead, and I’ll pick you up by car! You know how stable my driving is!”
Wu Lan thought about the day they went to register the car, driving no more than 60 on empty county roads, and the old man in front of them blinked and left them behind…
Now that was really stable!
But honestly speaking, “Driving here is too tiring; just bring a couple of changes of clothes during the New Year, and I’ll have Tantan pick you up from the high-speed train station.”
“Mm.” Lun Chuan smiled and nodded, at this mont, anything said felt right, making Wu Lan…
The more she looked, the more she couldn’t bear it!
Thinking about her daughter’s situation, while Lun Jing was nearby, she quickly added, “Xiaochuan, you’ve seen our family situation, Tantan’s career is mainly in these fields and mountains, so you’ll just have to co over to accompany her…”
In her traditional mindset, usually, the girl follows the boy, yet now Xiaolun, who can earn money, cook, has a good temper, and a handso appearance!
But in this relationship, he can only stay in the countryside with Tantan, and since there are no relatives on the boy’s side, otherwise, they wouldn’t agree.
“But rest assured, our family doesn’t plan on having a son-in-law settle in, you live as you would… sorry for the trouble.”
However, Lun Chuan shook his head, “Aunt, I willingly want to be with Tantan, it doesn’t matter where.”
These words made Wu Lan’s heart feel a twinge of softness, quickly promising, “Rest assured, your mom said your previous dad hasn’t given up contacting you, right? Don’t worry! If he dares to co to our village, we’ll beat him out!”
“You just live your life, he doesn’t matter to us!”
“Your mom too! The one she dated before wasn’t good, so we don’t want him! Look for soone suitable later, don’t dwell on it.”
This left Lun Chuan unsure of what to say, after thinking for a mont, he could only respond, “My mom probably won’t have ti for dating, she’s coming here next year to oversee the inns.”
“That’s right!” Wu Lan rembered and then advised, “Don’t invest too much money, Tantan said our garden won’t be open for public visits, if no one cos, it’ll be a big loss.”
Even if people co to stay, they’ll surely go to Yanping’s affordable cottages, not the expensive rainbow or macaron houses here!
As for why they didn’t advise against it from the start…
Oh my, having a handso young man from the boy’s side willing to settle down and establish a career here, they couldn’t be happier.
But since they’re family, they can’t let his money go to waste…
Unfortunately, no matter how they persuaded, Tantan refused to open the garden to attract tourists for accommodations… sigh, this young man, even though Xiaolun has money, they can’t let him lose so much!
…
People down the mountain were chattering on and on, troubled by the impending farewell, while up the mountain, Master Jiang and his wife, Du i, were also hesitating:
“Our daughter doesn’t want to co, so before the Spring Festival rush, we should head back, right?”
That was easier said than done, but Master Jiang was here for work, and they’re still selling vegetables until the 28th of the lunar month here, so he could only grab tickets for the 29th.
Thus, he sighed, “This silly girl, despite sending her so many delicious foods, she still doesn’t want to co!”
“All because I said she couldn’t eat as she pleased here, wasn’t it? Without considering that her dad worked here for so long, he couldn’t eat freely, but there are good food allocations every month!”
Sigh! Young people truly don’t know how to appreciate!
See, Professor Song’s three students, if they weren’t crouched in the vegetable field, they’d be climbing hills, with physical activity and appetite perfectly aligned, how happy they were!
Now that it’s ti for the New Year’s holiday, they’re reluctant to leave!
—Who wants to leave?
Yan Ran is the first who doesn’t want to go, right?
Her face has beco much fairer, with a little makeup, she’d be a beauty with rosy lips and white teeth! She really doesn’t want to go ho now!
Initially, because she didn’t accept Song Tan’s invitation from the start, by the ti they ca with Qi Lin, the dining benefits with Lao Song’s family had vanished.
The dormitory was quite lovely, fragrant for sleeping, and the canteen’s food was delicious.
However, there’s still a gap compared to before!
Who knew after signing the work contract, Song Tan produced another contract page, explicitly stating their monthly employee benefits…
Whether it’s an ounce of tea each month, three ounces of white fungus per month, or fifty pounds of at per year and two eggs per week…
Plus the right to purchase with employee priority…
Wow!
Wow!
Wow!
Who wants to leave now? They’ve just slaughtered five pigs, what if they slaughter cows or sheep during the New Year?
Sob sob sob, really don’t want to go on holiday…
