Chapter 201

A gentle kiss landed on Ji Wanmei's lips.

His movements were different from the last time he escorted her home; instead, they were filled with tenderness and gentle comfort.

Ji Wanmei felt his comfort and wrapped her arms around his shoulders, responding to him with a relaxed and comfortable gesture.

Although Lei Tingjun was introverted, aloof, and taciturn, rarely uttering sweet words, his actions always made Ji Wanmei feel as if she were being held in his palm, being tightly protected and cared for by him.

Every time he hugged her, he did so very tightly.

It felt as if he wanted to deeply integrate her into his own flesh and blood, so that they would never be separated.

He loved her, but he couldn't say it out loud, so he could only show her his love through his actions.

Tenderness flowed silently as Ji Wanmei nestled against his neck, their tall, strong bodies pressed tightly together, their hearts pounding.

It was like a symphony of life being played, with his part and hers.

He placed kisses on the forehead and the top of the head of the girl in his arms.

My heart, which had been empty and neglected for many days, was filled once again.

Holding her, Lei Tingjun could almost hear the satisfied sigh emanating from the depths of his soul.

"Beep beep—"

Just then, another car drove up from behind the road and honked its horn at the two people hugging on the roadside.

Lei Tingjun reacted quickly, pulling Ji Wanmei to the side of the road and using his broad chest to block the side closest to the highway.

Ji Wanmei buried her face in Lei Tingjun's arms, letting him act as a human shield for her.

A Santana drove by, kicking up large clouds of yellow sand and dust on the gravel mountain road as it passed them.

The people in the car stopped for a moment, leaned out of the driver's seat, and whistled at Lei Tingjun and Ji Wanmei, who were standing on the roadside embracing and kissing: "Hey, buddy, you've got some fun!"

Lei Tingjun's face darkened, and his sharp, hawk-like eyes shot out.

The man in the Santana smiled and waved his hand, "Alright, I won't bother you two any longer!"

The Santana sped away quickly, the roar of its engine still audible on the mountain road.

Lei Tingjun turned around and looked at Ji Wanmei, a rare hint of embarrassment showing on his dark and handsome face: "Don't listen to that person's nonsense."

Ji Wanmei didn't care what others said; being with Lei Tingjun was her own choice.

The only person she cared about regarding this matter was her father, Ji Xingguo.

Besides, she and Lei Tingjun have already confirmed their relationship, so kissing and hugging each other isn't illegal.

However, the two of them couldn't help themselves and started kissing by the mountain road, which was seen by people in passing cars, making them quite embarrassed.

Moreover, this road leads only to Pingquan County. Many of the vehicles coming from Pingquan County are either doing business with the factory or are factory cadres on business trips. In short, they are all closely related to Dongfang Factory.

Worried that people who knew her father might see her, Ji Wanmei said to Lei Tingjun, "Let's get in the car first, don't stand here."

Lei Tingjun then loaded Ji Wanmei's bags into the pickup truck, and the two of them got in and set off.

Ji Wanmei's mood at this moment was completely different from when she was sitting on the bus.

Just now, as she sat by the window, watching the trees and grass outside gradually turn into autumn colors, she felt that autumn had arrived, the leaves were withered and yellow, and all things were heartless, which made her very sad.

However, at this moment, she was sitting in the passenger seat of the pickup truck, with Lei Tingjun driving beside her. She opened the window, reached out and touched the breeze, and felt the cool autumn air. The leaves were fragrant, and everything seemed to be dressed up, with beauty everywhere she looked.

In just ten minutes, the difference in my state of mind was so great.

Lei Tingjun even bought her two new Teresa Teng cassette tapes.

Ji Wanmei turned on the radio and played a song called "Small Town Story".

They drove towards Huadong City, accompanied by Teresa Teng's gentle and melodious voice.

Today is the last day of the holiday, and classes will officially start tomorrow.

At the gate of East China University, many students returning from home walked into the campus in twos and threes.

East China University has very strict management; non-students are not allowed to enter.

Lei Tingjun could only take her to the school gate, unload her luggage, and then escort her to the gate.

“I will write to you when I get back,” Lei Tingjun said.

He originally wanted to buy a pager so he could easily contact Ji Wanmei, but Ji Wanmei didn't have one, so it wouldn't work.

While in the car, Lei Tingjun asked Ji Wanmei what she thought, suggesting that he buy two people so that Ji Wanmei could page him.

But Ji Wanmei firmly rejected his idea, saying, "Don't buy a pager. This thing will be obsolete soon. Besides, we see each other every month. We can just write letters. If there's anything urgent, you can call the dorm manager's landline downstairs or the phone at your construction site."

After hearing Ji Wanmei's words, Lei Tingjun gave up the idea.

Pagers have become very popular among business people in coastal areas in the past two years. They are in high demand and hard to sell.

Lei Tingjun saw it that day, and Zhao Yingda bought one and clipped it to his belt buckle. When someone sent it to him, it seemed to work quite well.

Especially for someone like him who is often out driving, he can only answer a phone call if he happens to be in the factory building; if he happens to be outdoors, he won't be able to receive it.

Lei Tingjun thought the pager's functions were quite good, but Ji Wanmei said that the pager's functions were useless, just a transitional and experimental product in a technological stage.
