"ah?"

Chen Jingshui stared blankly at the photo.

Ji Mingjing raised an eyebrow: "Didn't you understand?"

Chen Jingshui quickly shook his head: "No, I understand." He just felt it was unnecessary.

Ji Mingjing lowered his eyes: "So you can't do it?"

Chen Jingshui immediately stiffened: "As long as the money is right, nothing else matters."

Before Ji Mingjing could speak, Chen Jingshui added, "President, this photo was sent out last night. After so much time, it's possible that many people have saved it, so it's difficult to completely erase it. After all, the internet has a memory."

Ji Mingjing: "..."

There's no need to guess; Mu Liangzhou definitely saved the photos.

Therefore, there is no difference between withdrawing and not withdrawing.

Unless he can get something on Mu Liangzhou...

"President, if there are no other instructions, I'll go out and remove the photos." Chen Jingshui turned and left.

Ji Mingjing said with a stern face, "You don't need to worry about it."

"Yes, Mr. President."

Chen Jingshui didn't ask why and quickly left the office. It was as if if he stayed even a second longer, Ji Mingjing would give him another problem.

Ji Mingjing pressed his brow, his thin lips pressed into a straight line.

"Is it serious?" Rongrong wondered if he was being too serious.

Ji Mingjing's deep gaze fell upon her.

Actually, it's not a big deal.

After regaining her composure, Ji Mingjing changed the subject: "It's nothing. When are you leaving?"

Rongrong said, "Now, it wouldn't be good to go too late."

She didn't plan to stay overnight at the farmhouse; she wanted to go early so that leaving wouldn't seem too abrupt.

Ji Mingjing: "..."

He shouldn't have asked those questions!

"I'm leaving now." Rongrong put on her coat, picked up her bag, and headed for the elevator.

"etc!"

Ji Mingjing called out to her, his deep voice tinged with a hint of sorrow: "Have you forgotten something?"

Rongrong turned around: "I didn't forget to bring you along. You should focus on your work."

Ji Mingjing felt a lump in her throat, but stubbornly said, "I didn't say I wanted to go with you."

Rongrong asked directly, "So what do you want to say?"

Ji Mingjing pushed up his glasses and said three words without changing his expression: "Farewell kiss."

Rongrong: "??"

Seeing that she was standing still, Ji Mingjing had no choice but to get up and walk towards her.

The saying goes, "Self-reliance leads to abundance."

Ji Mingjing lifted her chin, lowered his head and captured her lips, lingering and caressing them.

I had only hoped for a fleeting farewell kiss.

However, no man can resist kissing the woman he loves, and the longer the better.

After a tender and passionate kiss...

Ji Mingjing buried his face in her neck below her earlobe, took a deep breath, and left his hickey.

"ah!"

Rongrong cried out in pain.

Feeling guilty, Ji Mingjing straightened up and released her, saying, "Go ahead, have fun."

Rongrong glared at him irritably, didn't say a word, pressed the elevator button, went inside, leaned against the elevator wall, and didn't look at him.

Ji Mingjing, on the other hand, stared intently at her.

After the elevator doors closed, Ji Mingjing touched his lips, a faint smile playing in his narrow eyes.

Work!

I'll pick her up after work!

At the same time, Rongrong stepped out of the elevator and saw Ji Kong coming towards her.

“Miss Rongrong, the head of the family instructed me to go with you. Don’t worry, I won’t disturb your gathering. I’ll just wait for you in the car.”

"...Let's go."

Rongrong agreed without saying anything.

Because Ji Kong only obeys Ji Mingjing's orders.

Ji Mingjing was clearly worried about her going to the farmhouse alone.

It's pointless for her to say anything.

Ji Kong drove for more than an hour before arriving at the farmhouse resort that Ji Xianren had mentioned.

Ji Xianreng has booked this place.

Several cars were already parked in the parking lot; some students had arrived.

Rongrong got off the car and walked forward according to the roadside signs. Before long, she saw two high school classmates chatting.

He is the class monitor and academic representative.

"You're Rongrong, right? Holy crap, you haven't changed a bit!"

"Class monitor, you're seeing things! There's clearly a change! Rongrong is even prettier now!"

"Yes, yes, I'm nearsighted... No, Rongrong is even prettier now!"

After the class monitor finished speaking, he chuckled awkwardly to defuse the awkward situation.

Rongrong smiled slightly and said generously, "Thank you for the compliment, both handsome gentlemen. I see there are several cars in the parking lot. Where are the other students?"

The class monitor cheerfully told her, "Aren said he wanted to have a barbecue, so he took the prettiest girl in our class to the kitchen."

The class monitor secretly kicked him.

The class monitor met his gaze, and memories seemed to drift back to high school, recalling how Aren had liked Rongrong…

That's it, he'd better not say anything.

However, Rongrong noticed their little actions and asked, seemingly casually, "Class monitor, how long do you plan to stay here?"

The squad leader replied without hesitation, "Didn't we say it would be two days and one night? Of course, we'll stay until the very last moment, hahaha!"

The class monitor's eyes flickered: "Are you leaving early?"

Rongrong nodded: "Yes, my boyfriend will pick me up in the evening."

The class monitor stared in shock, eyes wide: "You actually have a boyfriend?"

Rongrong smiled and raised an eyebrow: "Didn't you all say I'm pretty? So it's normal for me to have a boyfriend, right?"

The squad leader nodded blankly: "Yes, it's very normal."

The class monitor suddenly understood the significance of her first question.

The three of them stood there, and the class monitor suggested, "Since we're just killing time anyway, let's go to the strawberry farm and pick some strawberries."

Rongrong: "Sure."

Class monitor: "I have no objection."

The three of them carried a basket as they headed to the strawberry farm.

While picking strawberries, two girls also came. One of them was an old acquaintance of Rongrong, Zeng Lanni.

But she wasn't in Rongrong's class.

Zeng Lanni looked at her with a half-smile: "Rongrong, Xinmei just asked you if you and Ji Xianreng were together. I said you are now his aunt, I don't think I was wrong, right?"

The class monitor asked instinctively, "What aunt?"

The class monitor was a bit far away from him and couldn't stop him, so he sighed and facepalmed.

The class monitor is good in every way, except he has an extra mouth.

Zeng Lanni looked at the class monitor of Class 1: "Don't you understand? Rongrong is with Ji Xianreng's uncle."

Class monitor: "???"

How is that possible? Aren't they a whole generation older than them?

The class monitor was also a little surprised. She glanced at Rongrong and said rationally, "Love knows no borders, no gender, and no age. There is no first come, first served. What suits you best is the best."

Immediately, the class monitor gave him a thumbs up: "No wonder you're our study committee member."

Zeng Lanni's face looked rather unpleasant.

In the city, Ji Mingjing protected Rongrong, but she never expected that in the countryside, there would be other men protecting her!

Zeng Lanni cursed under her breath: Damn it!

The squad leader suddenly asked, "By the way, Aren said we can bring family members, why didn't you bring your girlfriend?"

Studying, Single, Committee Member: "..."
