When Lin Yifan arrived at the lively construction site.
The original three-tiled house had completely disappeared without a trace.
Seeing Xizhu commanding from a high place, Lin Yifan helplessly whistled.
"Oh, why are you back?"
Xizhu quickly jumped down, parted through the crowd, and ran briskly to Lin Yifan.
At this mont, with so many people around, Lin Yifan couldn’t say much.
He put his arm around Xizhu’s shoulder and led him to a quieter place, giving him a punch in the stomach.
"Xizhu, you bastard, I introduced you to business, and you co back and tear down my house. Are you even human?"
Lin Yifan said with a stern face, though the punch wasn’t forceful.
Otherwise, Xizhu would’ve had his intestines spilling out.
"Bro, I did it for your own good. Winter is coming, and you know the old tiled house isn’t warm. I’m tearing it down now and promise to return a three-story villa with floor heating within two months. It’ll definitely be the best house in the village, warm and comfy."
Xizhu scratched his head and laughed dryly.
"Shouldn’t you ask my permission first? Who goes and acts first without telling ? It’s just and mom living; what do we need such a big house for?"
Lin Yifan rolled his eyes, filled with anger.
"This is sothing Mr. Li specially arranged for , and he even allocated two million for it. You tell , if this is my first ti working with Mr. Li and I can’t even handle this, how can I face him? Besides, this old house is no good. I promise the two million project budget will deliver work worth four million. Mr. Li’s design drawings will be delivered soon, and these workers are the best craftsn."
Xizhu’s words left Lin Yifan even more at a loss.
Unexpectedly, Li Fengnian was involved in this too.
It was clear he wasn’t just trying to please Lin Yifan; he was also making it convenient for Shen Shiyao to sleep over.
"Where did all my stuff go? You didn’t just throw it all away, did you?"
With the house already torn down, Lin Yifan didn’t have any other options.
There weren’t many things at ho, mostly old and worn out.
But many items were treasures left by his grandfather, things outsiders couldn’t understand.
"Of course not, everything’s at my place. Jiufeng has been in a bad mood these days. I just told her I got a big project, and she didn’t even crack a smile. I don’t dare to go ho now. You better go cheer her up and get things done quickly."
Xizhu winked as he spoke.
Lin Yifan was certainly aware of Jiufeng’s displeasure.
Having missed opportunities several tis, it was no wonder she was anxious.
"Alright, I know. By the way, since you’ve got people here building, arrange for two to put up a side shed next to the clinic, like the one behind my old house, and bring two truckloads of firewood over."
Lin Yifan instructed Xizhu.
The back of their old house was originally an alchemy room, but now it had turned to rubble.
"Who uses firewood anymore? Everyone uses air energy for heating now, just costs a bit of electricity."
Xizhu asked, puzzled.
"Just do as I say, so many questions. When installing the floor heating, also do it for the clinic floor, makes it easier for to use."
Lin Yifan was too lazy to explain more to him, as he wouldn’t understand anyway.
Xizhu agreed and went back to working.
Lin Yifan turned and headed towards his own ho.
"Sister-in-law, where’s my mom?"
Outside the door, Lin Yifan gently knocked.
It was broad daylight, and neighbors watched.
He had to show so courtesy; barging in would invite gossip.
"Coming!"
Quickly, Jiufeng’s voice ca from inside.
She opened the door and let him in.
"What happened to you?"
Once inside the iron gate, away from prying eyes.
Lin Yifan curiously looked at the sullen Jiufeng.
"I don’t want to talk to a liar."
Jiufeng huffed and turned back to the room.
Of course, she didn’t close the door.
Lin Yifan quickly opened the slightly ajar door and stepped inside the inner room.
But looking through the transparent glass, he didn’t see his mother.
"Jiufeng, how am I a liar?"
Looking at Jiufeng sitting on the bed with her back to him, Lin Yifan smiled bitterly.
"If you’re not a liar, then who is? I’ll end up jumping into the river for you, maybe even die as payback."
Jiufeng sobbed with her head down.
Her rounded shoulders trembled uncontrollably with her choking.
"Hey, what nonsense are you talking? When have I ever lied to you? Don’t cry."
Lin Yifan quickly took her soft hand and gently wiped her tears.
"You just don’t like , lying about wanting to have your children, but in your heart, you don’t want to touch ."
Dong Jiu Feng raised her head full of tears, looking directly at Lin Yifan’s handso face.
But he always backed off at the crucial mont.
She was still a maiden to this day.
"How could that be? My Jiufeng is wonderful; it’s just other things got in the way those tis. Otherwise, I would have wanted to swallow you whole, so you couldn’t get away."
Lin Yifan reached out, embracing the plump Jiufeng.
That slightly doughy feel was unmatched.
"Really? I even dread last night that you didn’t want ."
Nuzzled in Lin Yifan’s embrace, Dong Jiu Feng murmured.
"Of course not. You see, I haven’t been idle. I co to see you whenever I can."
Wiping away her tears, Lin Yifan affectionately pinched Jiufeng’s cheek.
"Xizhu said you took a big project, telling to keep an eye on things at your house and help with lunch since he’ll be busy at Red Earth Town for a while and might not co back every night. Mom’s room is arranged on the first floor; she went with Aunt Li for mushroom picking on the mountain. I’ll be staying in our room; will you co keep company?"
Cald down, Jiufeng nestled in Lin Yifan’s arms, greedily inhaling his scent.
"Alright, alright, I’ll co keep you company whenever I can, okay?"
Lin Yifan chuckled, seeing it as an open invitation.
"How about now? I can’t wait any longer."
Jiufeng offered her lips; the fire inside her already ignited upon seeing Lin Yifan.
"Not now, there were people watching co in. If I stay too long, there’ll be gossip."
Lin Yifan gave her a quick peck.
"I don’t care; I just want you now."
Jiufeng disregarded and threw herself into his arms.
Her long-parched heart had long been filled by Lin Yifan.
"How about tonight then? I promise to co tonight, be good, just hold on a little longer."
Lin Yifan held Jiufeng tight, whispering in her ear.
"Alright, but you better co tonight. If you don’t, tomorrow morning I’ll jump in the river and give you back your life."
Jiufeng pouted, acting spoiled.
Her burning body was like a ticking ti bomb.
"Your life is mine to keep, no running away for a lifeti."
Lin Yifan caressed Jiufeng’s body.
It seed he was in for a night shift tonight.
