The Greatest Village Chapter 51 She Wants to Drink

Chapter 51: Chapter 51 She Wants to Drink

On their way upstairs, they chatted about recent developnts, their laughter surprising many who witnessed the scene!

Because all along, they had hardly ever seen Mo Jiaolan’s smile.

Those who knew Ling Feng were very curious, wondering how this country boy managed to make President Mo smile?

Of course, Ling Feng was unaware of these thoughts. After entering Mo Jiaolan’s office, he sat down and said, "The old man has been quite well lately, hasn’t he?"

"Yes, thanks to you, he’s getting stronger every day, going out for walks by himself every morning," Mo Jiaolan said with a smile.

"That’s good to hear. It’s a relief when the elderly are healthy!" Ling Feng nodded.

Mo Jiaolan glanced at him, hesitating before she said, "By the way, Lan Fei has resigned."

"Oh?"

Ling Feng was startled and realized that Chen Yuhe must have ntioned the previous matter to her. So, he smiled, "Maybe she’s busy with her engagent, so she doesn’t have ti for work?"

"I didn’t ask much; perhaps that’s the case," Mo Jiaolan nodded.

The two sat opposite each other. After they finished discussing this matter, they suddenly ran out of topics, and the room fell into silence.

Ling Feng thought to himself that this wouldn’t do, it was rare to have the chance to be alone with a beautiful woman—how could he not find anything to say?

But his mind was blank at the mont, desperately trying to think of a topic, but he couldn’t co up with anything!

After a mont of silence, it was Mo Jiaolan who broke it first, "Ling Feng, with your abilities, you could totally develop in the county town, there’s no need to stay in the village."

"Move to the county?" Ling Feng was taken aback.

"Yes, that way, we’d be nearer to each other," Mo Jiaolan said, looking down.

Ling Feng was moved; her shy deanor clearly hinted at sothing. But before he could say anything, Mo Jiaolan’s phone suddenly rang.

"What’s the matter?" After picking the call, Mo Jiaolan took a deep breath and asked calmly.

Whatever was said on the other end of the phone, her expression changed abruptly, "I won’t change my mind before the ti is up!"

The person on the other end said a few more words, and Mo Jiaolan’s expression darkened as she said coldly, "I will stick to my promise, and I hope you will too. If I can’t deliver on our agreent when the ti cos, I will accept the consequences then!"

After speaking, she imdiately hung up the phone!

Ling Feng looked at her curiously, "What’s wrong?"

"Nothing, just so personal matters," Mo Jiaolan forced a smile and said lightly.

Ling Feng knew she didn’t want to talk about it, but he still wanted to ask. Just then, soone knocked on the door and a staffer from the kitchen reported, "President Mo, we’ve weighed the mushrooms. According to the purchase price, we owe Mr. Ling nine hundred and fifty yuan."

"Got it, you can go back," Mo Jiaolan nodded.

Once that person left, she imdiately took out her cell phone and transferred one thousand yuan to Ling Feng.

Ling Feng was taken aback when he saw the transfer amount and then gave a bitter smile, "Why are you doing this? I only spent a little over seven hundred on the mushrooms, and you’re giving

extra money!"

"Just keep it, there’s only so much I can do to help with my limited capabilities," Mo Jiaolan said in an even tone, her laugh gone, her brows slightly furrowed as if weighed down by a heavy concern.

Ling Feng felt a twinge of heartache observing her but knew that she ca from a wealthy family and his abilities as a humble village doctor were likely not enough to help her.

As he was thinking this, Mo Jiaolan suddenly smiled, "Are you free tonight?"

"Huh?" Ling Feng was startled and shook his head, "No, nothing special going on."

"Alright, I said I wanted to treat you to a al last ti, but you ended up snatching the bill. Shall I treat you today?" Mo Jiaolan asked.

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng imdiately nodded without any hesitation, "Sure!"

After a mont of thought, he added, "Oh right, should we also invite that girl Chen Yuhe over?"

Mo Jiaolan was taken aback for a second, then nodded, "That sounds good, she can liven things up!"

Ling Feng had the sa idea, firstly, he needed Chen Yuhe to lighten the atmosphere, and secondly, he wanted to find an opportunity to ask her if she knew whether Mo Jiaolan had anything troubling her.

Although it was only a little past three in the afternoon, since it was a quiet ti for the hotel, Mo Jiaolan imdiately had the kitchen prepare so signature dishes, so they could eat there later.

This was her territory, even if Ling Feng wanted to snatch the bill, no one would take his money.

After descending to a small private room on the second floor, the two had just sat down when Chen Yuhe arrived, beaming with smiles.

That girl was sporting a tennis skirt today, with sneakers on her feet, and a stretch of little white socks visible at her ankles, exuding a vibrant energy.

"I knew it, who else but you, Ling Feng, could have such prestige to make my cousin treat us in her own hotel?" she said the mont she walked in the door.

Ling Feng smiled. With one girl cold and stunning and the other lively and spirited opposite him, he felt truly blessed!

It had just struck four o’clock when the kitchen began to serve the dishes. After all the dishes were on the table, Mo Jiaolan instructed the server, "Bring up a bottle of Wuliangye."

Ling Feng and Chen Yuhe were both taken aback, asking simultaneously, "You want to drink?"

"What, can’t you drink?" Mo Jiaolan asked.

Chen Yuhe pouted, "Sis, what’s with you today? Why the heck are we drinking in broad daylight?"

Ling Feng also felt it strange and couldn’t help but remind her, "Jiaolan, don’t you have to keep an eye on the hotel’s operations tonight? Can you drink?"

"It’s fine, the deputy manager is here. I’m just in a really good mood today, you guys join

for a bit to drink!" Mo Jiaolan said.

Ling Feng exchanged a look with Chen Yuhe, and both nodded at the sa ti.

"I’ll go to the restroom first." Ling Feng stood up and as he passed Chen Yuhe, he gently nudged her thigh with his knee.

Chen Yuhe pretended nothing happened but understood his intention. So, after Ling Feng left, she also stood up and said, "I’ll head out for a mont too, I’ll be right back."

Before Mo Jiaolan could respond, she hurriedly rose and dashed out.

No sooner had she left the room than she saw Ling Feng standing at the door of the adjacent private room. She imdiately followed him into that room.

"What did you want to talk about?" Chen Yuhe asked, looking up.

The two had quite a height difference, and standing so close, she had to tilt her head up to see his eyes.

"Do you know what’s on Jiaolan’s mind? It seems like she made so sort of arrangent with soone else, right?" Ling Feng asked.

"How do you know?" Chen Yuhe tilted her head, looking puzzled.

"I guessed. When I first t her, she always seed to have this gloominess on her face, and today she suddenly wanted to drink after receiving a phone call, which made

feel that sothing was off," Ling Feng replied.

Chen Yuhe narrowed her eyes, "I see, so that’s it. Look, I do know sothing about it, but I can’t tell you. Even if I told you, it would be of no use!"

"Even if it’s of no use, can’t you let

know a bit about it?" Ling Feng asked.

Chen Yuhe shook her head in response, "No, if you truly care about my cousin, then try to make her happy. As for the rest, you’re better off not knowing!"
