Chapter 359: The Soft-Waisted Educated Youth Is Again Pampered by Her Boyfriend 22

Jin Chen originally had no particular thought to deal with the few people outside, nor did he plan to go out, but when he heard the latter half of what 0731 said, his expression finally changed.

【……Am I scary?】

【If you understand it that way, I can't help it】0731 hehe laughed.

【Time-limited task: Please spend 50 yuan in cash within 30 minutes】

"What's wrong?"

Mo Zhinan suddenly poked his shoulder, his expression somewhat doubtful.

"Nothing, just heard it's noisy outside." Jin Chen also helped him pack the prepared items into the suitcase, along with the backpack holding precious memories.

"We can buy clothes and such over there; carrying this much is also quite heavy."

Jin Chen tried lifting the suitcase.

Mo Zhinan nodded; these things he didn't really care about, leaving it to Jin Chen to decide was fine, except there was one thing…

He suddenly smiled mysteriously, whispering near his ear: "I'll give you a surprise when we leave tomorrow morning."

"Then from this moment on, I've already begun to look forward to it."

Jin Chen took the opportunity to lean in and steal a kiss, also smiling in response.

At this moment, a knocking sound suddenly came from the door, followed immediately by Gui Fang's voice full of helplessness.

"Chenzi, there's a guest; come out and see."

Mo Zhinan immediately pushed Jin Chen aside and went to open the door.

"If Xiao Mo doesn't want to see people, just rest in the room." Gui Fang saw his smile increase a bit.

Mo Zhinan poked his head out to look, then immediately shrank back; he was about to agree, but thinking that after going to the city tomorrow he would have to accompany Jin Chen to build a factory.

If he continued like this, unwilling to see people, he wouldn't be able to help at all.

Thinking this, he shook his head and gave a faint smile: "I'll give it a try."

"Hey, that works."

Gui Fang had the two come out, gave Jin Chen a look, letting him just say a couple of sentences to get by.

"Jin Chen, long time no see." Huang Yun saw the two come out, immediately recognized who Jin Chen was, and gracefully rose to stand beside him,

"Who are you?"

Jin Chen searched his memory; indeed there was no such person.

"I'm Huang Yun; we met when we were kids. I have something I want to say to you." Huang Yun glanced at the door outside, seeming to want to speak with Jin Chen alone.

Mo Zhinan's expression changed slightly; he instantly grabbed Jin Chen's shirt corner, his expression turning cold.

"I don't really remember; I think there's nothing much to talk about."

Jin Chen gently held his wife's hand, not avoiding Huang Yun.

She also saw it clearly, but her expression showed no change at all, even putting on a smile, as if she had expected it.

This unexpectedly surprised both Jin Chen and Mo Zhinan; Mo Zhinan tentatively asked, "You... what's the matter?"

Huang Yun: "It's just a small request; if you don't mind, the two of you can go out with me."

The three's conversation volume wasn't loud, the main hall was noisy again; the few people seated only knew they were chatting, but didn't know the content.

Soon after, everyone saw them leave together.

Aunt Huang's smile grew wider, her attitude toward Gui Fang became even more warm.

Outside the house, the three stopped under the osmanthus tree.

Like asserting sovereignty, Mo Zhinan put his arm around Jin Chen as soon as they went out; the two were inseparable, anyone could see their relationship was anything but ordinary.

Jin Chen; "What's the matter?"

Mo Zhinan also looked over doubtfully.

"I was forced by my mother to return home," Huang Yun said in a low tone, "She... found out from our relatives in Xiangshi that I have a girlfriend."

Mo Zhinan's doubtful expression turned to surprise, his almond eyes widening.

No wonder she saw me holding hands with Jin Chen just now and had no reaction.

"After returning to the village, I heard a lot about you two, also suspected your relationship, so I came to try my luck."

"I believe you would also be concerned about the elders' opinions; my request is... we pretend to obey the elders' arrangements, you bring me back to Xiangshi, and then we each go our separate ways."

Mo Zhinan understood, but his expression still wasn't pleasant, the corner of his mouth slightly turned down.

Even if it were just pretend, he didn't want Jin Chen to have any relation with someone else…

The next second, Jin Chen's voice sounded.

"I don't agree with your suggestion; it's the opposite of what you said. My family already knows I like Zhinan and fully approves of my relationship with him."

"What?" Huang Yun seemed to have heard an Arabian tale, her pitch rising a few degrees.

Mo Zhinan also didn't know this; after a moment's pause, recalling Aunt Gui Fang's increasingly kind attitude toward him these past days, the corners of his mouth finally rose, spreading a smile.

As it turned out, the thing he had been worrying about would never happen; Jin Chen had already arranged everything.

Huang Yun glanced inside the house, could faintly see Gui Fang's silhouette, and felt even more that it was unreal.

Really, could there actually be elders who accept this kind of thing…

"But I can give you a train ticket, letting you leave with the pretext of going with me to develop in Xiangshi."

Jin Chen was worried that he couldn't finish the task given by 0731 today.

"I can buy the ticket myself; you just need to say a couple of words for me later." Huang Yun was already grateful to them, not wanting to ask for more.

"Once we reach Xiangshi, I and my lover will treat you to a meal." Mentioning his girlfriend, Huang Yun's smile became two degrees more genuine, "But she is Yingguo person, still not very good at speaking Now we need to output English."

"Yingguo person?"

Jin Chen suddenly repeated it, completely not hearing her saying she would buy the ticket herself.

"Yes..." Huang Yun, surprised at his suddenly lively expression, asked, "What's wrong?"

Mo Zhinan again plucked up his courage to speak.

The factory we intend to develop in Xiangshi is for foreign trade, so it's quite a coincidence.

The young man's voice was as pleasant as a spring, lacking the former timidity and now much more confident.

"So that's how it is..." Huang Yun nodded in understanding, "If there's anything we can help with, you can come find us."

"We'll talk about it later." Jin Chen listened as 0731 repeatedly announced how much time remained on the timed task, and he was practically splitting headaches.

He rubbed his forehead and led his wife indoors.

The three opened up the conversation, and Huang Yun visibly grew happier.

Back in the main hall, everyone's gaze was drawn there again.

Jin Chen took out the money he had prepared, "Mom, there'll be another Indian summer soon, it'll be really hot; don't let your brother go to town for odd jobs—it's unsafe and bad for his health."

"Just use this money to cover the expenses I incurred before coming to fetch you."

He put the money in an envelope; Gui Fang still didn't know how good it was, took it and opened it to see it was five 100-yuan bills, and immediately prepared to refuse.

But Jin Chen got there first and picked up the local specialty that had been set aside to put in the car, "These things are more useful to me than the money in your hand; later when we go out, I and Zhinan won't even get to eat hometown dishes."

【……Host, you're cheating again!】

【Just say whether it's an exchange or not.】

0731 reluctantly announced.

【Timed task completed, points +5!】
