Chapter 328 I Never Lie
The distant sound of "Sister-in-law" seemed to penetrate Lin Yourong's heart.
Her lips involuntarily curled into a smile, harder to suppress than an AK's. She lightly removed her right glove and waved to them in the distance in a brief response.
Yu Huan turned to the side, her gaze falling on Lin Yourong in the distance.
Suddenly, Zheng Yu was heard praising her, saying, "Sister-in-law has such a great temperament, her figure and fashion sense are all on point, it's a pity I didn't get to see her face either time."
Wang Xianjiao raised her chin and gazed into the distance at the striking figure of Aunt Yu.
Seeing her handing a pair of gloves to Director Li's daughter, he smiled and chimed in, "Of course! Just looking at her figure and demeanor, you can tell your sister-in-law is a great beauty. I'm really curious to see what she looks like without her mask. Huan-ge, is there a chance to let her show us her face?"
Yu Huan lifted her left foot and took a step to return, but upon hearing their words, she paused in her tracks.
He coughed slightly and said half-jokingly, "She has a bit of an allergic reaction on her face today and can't take off her mask. I'll let you see my wife's stunning beauty next time."
Upon hearing this, Wang Xianjiao said with a grin, "Brother Yu has always been a low-key person. Now that you mention it, I'm really looking forward to it. Your wife must be incredibly beautiful; she'll stun us the moment she shows her face."
Yu Huan nodded slightly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, but inwardly she was thinking to herself:
It's hard to say about Zheng Yu, but if you, who loves Su Su so much, see her in person, wouldn't you scream in shock just like last time when you went to pick her up at the airport, or even faint on the spot?
Thinking of this, he suppressed a smile.
He then changed the subject and asked, "What are you two planning to do?"
Zheng Yu answered clearly and logically: "Let's wander around first and see what activities we can do, then play some badminton, and after lunch we can play mahjong."
At this moment, Wang Xianjiao actually wanted to watch them feed the ostriches and stroll around with them.
But Zheng Yu had already said those words, so she moved her lips slightly, suppressing the urge in her heart, and didn't say anything.
"Oh." Yu Huan turned around and walked away, saying as she left, "Then you guys go have fun, see you at lunch."
Zheng Yu quickly replied, "Okay, Brother Yu, see you at noon."
Yu Huan didn't turn around, but simply raised her hand and waved casually, saying leisurely, "Have fun."
The golden sunlight shone on him, as if draping him in a layer of soft light.
Zheng Yu followed Wang Xianjiao's steps, watching his tall figure gradually disappear into the distance, and exclaimed, "Brother Yu is really handsome! No wonder he was once the man who trended on social media for his good looks!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Xianjiao immediately burst into laughter: "Zheng Yu, do you really have no illusions about Brother Yu?!"
"Pah! You want a beating, don't you!"
In front of the fence.
Under Ji Meng's guidance, Li Qianqian carefully lifted the cabbage and moved forward slowly, each step filled with a hint of nervousness.
The moment the large cabbage was placed under the ostrich's beak, the ostrich pecked at it fiercely, sending tremors through the air and scattering bits of cabbage leaves.
Upon seeing this, Li Qianqian couldn't help but let out a soft gasp.
This exaggerated reaction made Lin Youren, who was not far away, chuckle.
Suddenly, a series of light footsteps approached and reached my ears.
Lin Yourong turned around upon hearing the sound.
Her gaze first fell on Yu Huan, who was approaching, and then looked into the distance at the two girls who were walking further and further away.
As she looked away, she noticed that Yu Huan seemed to be holding something in her hand and asked, "What were you guys talking about just now?"
Yu Huan raised her hand to her chest, slowly opened it, and said softly with a bright smile on her face, "They all praised you, saying you have a great figure and a good temperament, and are a great beauty."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yourong could not hide the joy in her eyes, and her smile seemed to overflow from them.
She quickly lowered her head slightly, examining the juicy red strawberries in his palm, and then said, "Did they just go strawberry picking? No wonder they're all carrying baskets. These strawberries are so ripe, I wonder what they taste like."
Yu Huan nodded slightly.
At this moment, the brim of her hat covered her eyes, and although her eyes could not be seen, her cheerful tone revealed her pleasant mood.
Indeed, women are creatures that deserve praise.
Yu Huan laughed and said, "There are cream strawberries in the picking garden, fifteen yuan a pound."
“Cheap.” Lin Yourong uttered these two words softly.
The words fell.
She then reached out and took the plastic bag from Yu Huan's hand, took out the bottle of mineral water they hadn't finished, and said gently, "Rinse it with water first and see how it tastes."
Li Qianqian's laughter suddenly stopped.
"Brother Huan, it's your turn to feed the ostriches!"
Shouts reached my ears.
Yu Huan held the strawberries in her palms and brought them to the mouth of the bottle that Lin Yourong was slowly pouring out. She rinsed them slightly and replied with a smile, "You guys feed them!"
Li Qianqian, a few steps away, watched the couple washing strawberries with a smile.
Upon hearing this, she turned to Ji Meng, who was taking pictures of ostriches with a camera, and said, "Sister Mengmeng, why don't you come here?"
Ji Meng glanced at the half-eaten cabbage in Li Qianqian's hand, then waved her DSLR camera: "Qianqian, finish feeding the cabbage, I haven't finished yet—"
The words have not yet fallen.
Lin Yourong's question caught their attention: "These are strawberries from the picking garden. I think they're delicious. Would you like to try some?"
They all turned to look.
Lin Yourong walked closer, holding two bright red strawberries in her palms, with a few drops of water still clinging to them, glistening in the sunlight.
Upon hearing this, Ji Meng immediately opened her mouth and exclaimed, "Ah~"
Lin Yourong smiled and stepped forward, holding one strawberry in her palm and another between her two fingers.
After feeding Ji Meng, he turned around and offered another strawberry to Li Qianqian's mouth.
Li Qianqian glanced at Lin Yourong's slender fingers, quickly lowered her head to put the strawberry in her mouth, and thanked her loudly, feeling quite flattered: "Thank you, sister-in-law!"
Lin Yourong swallowed the chewed strawberry pulp in her mouth, the strawberry aroma filling her mouth, and said with a smile, "You're welcome."
With a strawberry in her mouth, Ji Meng suddenly exclaimed, "These strawberries are so sweet! Rongrong, let's go pick strawberries later!"
"That's exactly what I was thinking." Yu Huan picked up the conversation, added a literary touch, and then slowly walked to Lin Yourong's side.
He smiled at Li Qianqian and said gently, "Qianqian, don't call me sister-in-law anymore, just call me Sister Yourong."
"Huh? What sister?"
Li Qianqian spoke each word slowly and deliberately, drawing out each syllable at the end.
Seeing her suddenly speechless expression, Yu Huan couldn't help but chuckle, and repeated clearly, "Sister You Rong."
These three words were like a bolt from the blue, leaving Li Qianqian stunned and completely unaware that the cabbage she was holding had fallen from her hands.
Yu Huan suppressed a laugh, coughed slightly, and said softly, "Is there a problem?"
He had spoken briefly with Lin Yourong before and knew that she was indifferent to the matter.
Thinking that it would be difficult to keep it a secret all day, especially since Old Li was an insider, it would be better to take the situation into consideration and make things clear first.
To avoid being recognized by Li Qianqian, which would make them seem dishonest.
"no--"
Before Li Qianqian could finish speaking, Lin Yourong suddenly pulled her mask down to her chin, revealing a beautiful face.
Her eyes were wide open, filled with surprise and disbelief.
He stared at her blankly for a while, then looked at Yu Huan with disbelief: "Brother Huan, you..." He suddenly remembered how he had patted his chest and boasted to his boss that he and Lin Su were best friends...
My heart pounded wildly like a runaway horse, and I immediately blushed.
In the blink of an eye, her expressions changed like a Sichuan opera face-changing act, a truly spectacular display.
Aside from Yu Huan trying her best to keep a straight face, Lin Yourong and Ji Meng both couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Yu Huan suppressed a smile and said slowly, "You don't need to be so surprised. Just relax. As I said before, we're all acquaintances."
Lin Yourong nodded and picked up the conversation, saying gently, "Qianqian, it's been quite a few years since we last met. You look even more beautiful. I didn't even recognize you at first glance."
"It's alright, I can do makeup now..." Li Qianqian replied without hesitation.
Her lips trembled slightly, her mouth opened slightly, and she was still far from recovering from the shock.
He subconsciously swallowed the strawberry he had only chewed a few times, and said in a dry voice:
"Sister Yourong, please... call me Xiaoqian..."
"What's going on?" Ji Meng asked, puzzled. Although Li Qianqian's repeated changes of expression made the scene quite comical, she was still completely baffled.
Yu Huan explained with a smile, "Li Qianqian's father is my boss and also my father-in-law's old friend. Rongrong has known her since childhood. Just like you said, this is a matter of fate."
"I understand." Ji Meng nodded slightly, a hint of understanding in her eyes.
Li Qianqian cleared her mind of these tangled thoughts and let out a long sigh.
She sighed repeatedly, saying, "I only knew that Brother Boss got married, and Sister Rong became famous for her singing and had a boyfriend. I never imagined that you two were actually a couple! Although there were many clues, and my parents seemed to have talked about it at the dinner table last night, I was in a hurry to catch up on my show and didn't even think about it..."
Yu Huan smiled brightly and lightly kicked the half-headed cabbage that had rolled to the side of her feet: "Then stop thinking about it. Let's feed this cabbage first, and then we'll go pick strawberries."
"Oh."
Li Qianqian snapped out of her daze, hurriedly bent down to pick up the cabbage, and smacked her lips.
strawberry?
She had just swallowed a strawberry, and in her shock, she was chewing on it like a cow, not tasting anything at all...
Yu Huan spoke slowly and leisurely, "Also, Rong Jie and I are currently in a secret marriage, and we plan to go public next year. You'll have to keep it a secret for now."
"next year?"
Li Qianqian straightened up, her gaze falling on Lin Yourong's beautiful eyebrows and eyes visible between the brim of her hat and her mask, and said repeatedly:
"I knew before that Sister Rong had a boyfriend, but I never told anyone. I definitely won't talk nonsense!"
As soon as she finished speaking, whether out of embarrassment or excitement, she suddenly couldn't help but giggle.
His expression was both endearing and tinged with surprise and excitement.
After thinking it over, he decided not to feed the ostrich anymore and casually tossed half a cabbage into the fence.
The five ostriches in the enclosure immediately turned around and chased after it, swarming to peck at the food.
She quickly took off her gloves, hung them on the fence, and then hugged Lin Yourong tightly like a swallow returning to its nest.
Given their height difference, the forehead of the person wearing the woolen hat rested precisely on Lin Yourong's chin.
Li Qianqian excitedly stomped her feet and said with a beaming smile, "Sister Yourong! Long time no see!"
Lin Yourong was taken aback by her unrestrained behavior at first, but quickly raised her hand to gently pat her back and said with a smile, "Yeah, it's been a long time."
"Hahahaha!" Li Qianqian laughed so hard she couldn't stop.
Seeing her excited expression, Yu Huan teased, "Qianqian, you're being a bit too enthusiastic! Take it easy, or you'll hurt my wife."
Hearing this, Lin Yourong smiled.
Li Qianqian released Lin Yourong, took a step back, and said to Yu Huan with a grin, "I was just too excited! My two idols are actually a couple, it's such a wonderful feeling!"
"Wow, so Qianqian, you're a fan of Boss Brother?" Ji Meng said, putting the camera back into her bag.
She zipped up her zipper and then went over to pick up the gloves hanging on the fence.
Li Qianqian hugged Lin Yourong's arm, chuckled, and said frankly, "Of course! Many of the girls in our journalism major openly like Boss Brother! I came along because my dad told me that his company was having a team-building event and Huan-ge would be there!"
Ji Meng nodded her chin: "No wonder you were so excited."
Li Qianqian suddenly turned her head, her gaze falling on Lin Yourong's beautiful features, and softly called out, "Sister Yourong~"
"Yes," Lin Yourong responded gently.
"Sister You Rong~"
"Ok?"
Yu Huan, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but burst out laughing and said, "Xiaoqian, are you trying to call back a soul?"
"Yes, yes, yes! You all call me Xiaoqian, it's more affectionate!" Li Qianqian said repeatedly, then suddenly bit her lip, a slightly embarrassed and shy expression on her face: "Oh dear, I'm a little too excited, it feels like I'm dreaming!"
Ji Meng looked at Li Qianqian's round face and said with a smile, "Qianqian, although this is indeed quite unexpected, your reaction is just too cute."
Li Qianqian chuckled: "No wonder Brother Huan said that Sister Mengmeng usually photographs celebrities. That's absolutely true."
"Right? I never lie." Yu Huan smiled.
Ji Meng flicked the cabbage crumbs off her gloves and immediately teased, "Xiaoqian, he's not a monk, don't believe him."
Upon hearing this, Li Qianqian burst into laughter.
Lin Yourong smiled gently and said, "Shall we go pick strawberries first?"
“Okay, I’ll take you there.” Ji Meng turned around decisively, took big strides, and led the way.
She walked briskly into the brick house by the roadside and returned the gloves.
After exchanging a few pleasantries with the aunt, they turned back, and together with Li Qianqian, they took Lin Yourong's hands on either side and continued forward along the road.
Although it was a long, gentle slope, the group walked with unusually light steps.
On the left side of the road, in the woods, many chickens and ducks are kept in enclosures.
Strolling around for food and chirping softly, they added much vitality and life to the somewhat desolate winter forest.
On the right side, there are scattered detached houses.
After walking a short distance, the group stepped onto flat ground, where the scenery was breathtaking.
On the left, in the breeding area, there was a large group of peacocks, about twenty of them.
Most of them were blue peacocks with brightly colored plumage, and there were only a few white peacocks with feathers as white as snow, which were extremely beautiful.
Yu Huan walked at the very back at a leisurely pace, listening to the three women chatting and laughing.
"There are so many peacocks, but I didn't see any male peacocks displaying their tails?" Li Qianqian's voice was full of curiosity.
Ji Meng explained with a smile, "Winter is not the peacock's mating season, so of course they won't spread their tails unless they are startled."
"Oh, that's a bit of a shame."
"Most animals go into heat in the spring, but only humans go into heat all year round."
"Really?" Li Qianqian tilted her head.
"Yes, but the estrus cycle in humans isn't as obvious as in animals. Men are more influenced by hormones in this regard, while we women experience it around ovulation—"
"Rongrong, why are you pinching me!"
Yu Huan coughed slightly and loudly took over the conversation: "There's another gentleman behind you, so watch your voice."
As Ji Meng walked, she turned her head and glanced sideways at Yu Huan: "What's wrong? I'm talking about serious common sense!"
