A cup of hot water down their throats, they finally warmed up.
"Ye’er, why didn’t you give a heads up before ing?" Luo Feng slapped his forehead, "I got it, the jeep Li Zejun and I saw on the road was yours."
Luo Ye was slightly surprised, "You saw us? Why didn’t you call us?"
"You didn’t give any notice, the distance between us is so far..." Luo Feng smiled wryly, "How could I have guessed?"
"True..." Luo Ye giggled sheepishly, "I wanted to surprise you, anyway, how’s the work going for you?"
"For more than half a month, Li Zejun and I have visited nearly all the villages here, we’ve basically figured out the land area suitable for greenhouse planting..."
After Luo Feng finished explaining, Luo Ye stared at him speechlessly for a while. Only until he started to feel awkward under her gaze did she speak, "How can I describe you? Saying you’re silly is already a pliment."
Li Zejun moved his lips slightly but didn’t dare make a sound.
Luo Ye looked at him, "You think it’s a bit unfair for me to call him silly?"
Li Zejun: "..."
"Brother, you’re here for work, not to show how much you can endure hardship. You don’t need to bond with the locals this way.
Look at your face..." Luo Ye pointed at Luo Feng’s cheeks, "You’re about to get married, and yet you’ve got frostbite on your face, doesn’t it look particularly glorious?"
Luo Feng coughed, "Ye’er, I’ve decided to drive here starting next week. Before that, I was just too busy and forgot."
Can you even forget this... Luo Ye held her forehead helplessly and turned to Zhu HongYu, "Sister Zhu, why don’t you say something?"
Zhu Hongyu waved her hand, "Well... let’s not."
"No way!"
"Quite resilient!"
"No way!"
"A bit silly with the hardship!"
"That’s about right." Luo Ye looked at Luo Feng, "Did you hear that? Sister Hongyu even said you were a bit silly for enduring hardship. Also, if you want to endure hardship, that’s fine, but why drag Brother Li along? By the way, Brother Li, you’re not married yet, right?"
"No... I’m not, I... I don’t have a girlfriend yet." Li Zejun stammered.
"Brother, you’re about to get married, you shouldn’t disregard others. Imagine if Brother Li got frostbite too, affecting his lifelong matters, could you afford that?"
Li Zejun quickly interjected, "I’m used to the cold, I... I don’t get frostbite."
"You don’t get frostbite?" Luo Ye paused, "Even if you don’t, looking flushed from the cold isn’t stylish either!"
"Yes, yes!" Li Zejun replied while looking to Luo Feng for help. He’s a bit confused now; Mayor Luo always said his sister was both pretty and gentle, the pretty part is true, but the gentle... perhaps Mayor Luo’s understanding of gentle differs from his own?
Seeing Li Zejun’s expression, Luo Feng quickly explained, "Ye’er is usually very gentle, she’s just a bit urgent today because she’s worried about me."
"Enough, the more you explain, the worse it gets." Luo Ye pouted at him and dialed the local Liangyou’s number, ordering them to send a JEEP off-road vehicle immediately, with the money ing from her account.
She then called Qu Yue to notify him, as she’s always maintained a strict line between personal and public matters.
Qu Yue felt helpless with Luo Ye’s seriousness but also understood that she was doing the right thing, setting an example for those below.
After hanging up, she saw Li Zejun stood there as wooden as he was when they first met, waving her small hand in front of him, "Snap back, snap back, snap back..."
Zhu Hongyu covered her forehead; apparently, this Lady Luo seems to have reverse matured upon arriving at her brother’s territory?
"Lo... Miss Luo." Snapping back, Li Zejun stuttered to greet her, truly shocked; Mayor Luo is only 24 years old, so his sister should be at most 23, but looking at her she seems even younger, and yet offering to buy a car for her brother so casually — how wealthy must she be?
Seeing Mayor Luo’s usual lifestyle didn’t reflect that of a wealthy family’s child, but seeing his sister now made him doubt his judgment.
"Just call me Luo Ye, do you know how to drive?"
"I do, but I haven’t moved a car for two years since getting the license." Li Zejun replied honestly, though he learned, he seldom had the chance to drive.
"A license is all that matters, let my brother teach you, and from now on, you two shouldn’t ride bicycles when going out, this task is now yours, no matter what others say, don’t let my brother ride a bicycle out. Can you do it?"
