Chapter 902: Sweet and Quiet, Return to Linhuai
The woman walked away in shame.
With the warm reception of Director Zhao, Xie Dingyuan and Jiang Fuyue checked into a room with the best view on the upper floors of the hotel.
After walking all day, both of them were a little tired, so they ordered room service for dinner.
After eating, I went out for a walk to digest the food, and then went back to the room to rest.
The sun sets and night falls.
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, you can clearly see the spectacular sight of the tropical vegetation area bathed in the glow of the sunset as day and night change.
Like a colorful painting that slowly returns to black and white.
"Yueyue..." Xie Dingyuan came out after taking a shower wearing pajamas, but the buttons were not buttoned up, revealing his sexy collarbone, which was quite seductive.
Jiang Fuyue turned around, and sure enough, her eyes unconsciously fell on his slightly open collar.
"Cough!" The man coughed lightly, his ears turning red.
He is the one who is exposed and he is also the one who is shy.
Jiang Fuyue: "Have you finished washing?"
"Um."
"Want me to help blow-dry your hair?"
His eyes lit up and he immediately took out a hair dryer and handed it over.
Jiang Fuyue asked him to sit down and stood behind him.
For a moment, there was only a buzzing sound, and the warmth and touch flowed along the scalp and reached the nerves.
"……alright."
Jiang Fuyue put down the hair dryer, turned him over, and buttoned his shirt with her own hands.
Xie Dingyuan's Adam's apple rolled slightly: "... don't you like me like this?"
"What?" Jiang Fuyue raised his eyes with amusement, a smile spreading deep in his pupils.
"Just, show a little..."
"Aren't you used to it?"
It's really hard for someone who always buttons his shirt to the last button to do this.
"...In front of you, yes."
"What? Are you trying to seduce me?"
He paused, then raised the corner of his mouth and suddenly leaned closer: "Are you hooked?"
The man's skin was a cool white, and his eyes were deep and beautiful. When he gazed intently and with tender affection, the stunning sight and destructive power he brought were truly enormous.
Anyway, Jiang Fuyue was stunned.
The next second, the man reached out and held her in his arms, and a kiss followed.
She responded enthusiastically.
While cuddling, they both fell on the bed.
"Well—I haven't showered yet…"
"Wash it after you're done."
When washing, do it again.
…
The next day, they both slept until they woke up naturally.
Thanks to the early start time last night, it didn’t end too late. After the exercise, both of them had a good sleep.
After having breakfast at the hotel, the two set off for the Wangtianshu Scenic Area.
Since we were both in Mengla County, the journey didn’t take much time.
The 500-meter-long skywalk is connected to the Parashorea chinensis with thick ropes, suspended with steel ropes, with nylon rope nets as guardrails and alloy ladders as pedals. It is thrilling and exciting.
Xie Dingyuan took her to take a photo under a tree.
Jiang Fuyue felt that the lighting was not good and wanted to change places.
But the man insisted: "It's right here."
"Why?"
“This tree is nice.”
Jiang Fuyue took a closer look and found that it was not one tree, but two trees entwined together, closely intertwined and keeping each other company.
Xie Dingyuan: "The trees are all in pairs, and we want them too."
After saying that, he hugged her in his arms and gestured to the tourists holding their phones across from him: "You can take pictures now, thank you."
After a few clicks, the picture froze.
A couple under the Lovers Tree.
…
That night, the two rented a car and drove away from Mengla County.
We arrived in the city center almost at dawn, found a comfortable hotel, checked in, and by the time we took a shower and lay down, it was already past one o'clock.
Xie Dingyuan reached out to turn off the bedside lamp, and with his other hand, he hugged Jiang Fuyue under the quilt: "Good night."
"good evening."
Have a good night's sleep.
In the next few days, the two of them no longer traveled around the scenic spots, but just leisurely walked around the city center.
Sleep until you wake up naturally during the day, have breakfast, and go out for a stroll.
When the sun was hot at noon, the two of them would spend time in the hotel, swimming, taking saunas, getting back massages, and watching movies...
They experience what other couples do.
Like two rookies opening the door to a new world, they are looking for freshness and fun in constant attempts.
When the sun sets in the evening, the two go out again to explore the ancient streets and alleys and taste local food.
After nightfall, go to the flower market to get some bargains, buy a big bunch of roses or peonies for a few dollars, take them back to the hotel, and put them in a vase.
Or you can visit the night market stalls, eat and drink, and stop by as you please.
The pace of life has slowed down visibly, bringing with it a sense of ease and comfort.
The two stayed in Banna for half a month and had to end their journey near the end of the year.
Jiang Fuyue and Xie Dingyuan did not return to the imperial capital directly, but went to Linhuai first.
After some discussion, Han Yunru and Jiang Da decided to go to the capital to spend New Year's Eve with the old man, just like last year.
Jiang Fuyue's trip was mainly to pick them up and to go back to Linhuai to visit his old friends and teachers.
She asked Xie Dingyuan to return to the imperial capital first, but he refused without even thinking.
He complained aggrievedly, "You chased me away."
Jiang Fuyue: “?”
She just felt that the New Year was coming soon, and the Xie family must hope that Xie Dingyuan could go back earlier. What was the big deal about her monopolizing him?
Jiang Fuyue was thinking about him wholeheartedly, but he was still not satisfied...
"There are so many people in the family, they don't need me."
This is true. At this time of year in previous years, Xie Dingyuan basically stayed in the laboratory and didn't care about anything, but the Xie family didn't seem to be in chaos. Everything was still as usual and lively.
There's no reason why he should come back this year.
"Okay."
Finally, Jiang Fuyue compromised and let him go back to Linhuai with her.
…
Yutian Huafu, villa area, outside the gate of a detached villa.
"Why are you still following me?" Jiang Fuyue looked puzzled.
Xie Dingyuan said confidently: "Go home!"
"Need I remind you? Your house is next door!"
"……oh."
At the beginning, the two villas were next to each other, and Xie Dingyuan thought he had a great advantage because he was close to the water.
Now it's an eyesore no matter how I look at it.
Otherwise, I could live in my wife's house openly.
Jiang Fuyue said to him, "You wish."
Xie Dingyuan disagreed. "Now that I've met the parents, I'm officially the future son-in-law. It's only natural for me to live with my fiancée. Believe it or not, if you just let me in, my uncle and aunt will definitely let me stay."
Even though I can only sleep in the guest room...
Jiang Fuyue was not to be provoked by him: "Go back quickly!"
Xie Dingyuan was driven to the next room along with his luggage.
Jiang Fuyue returned home in a swagger.
You can smell the aroma of food as soon as you enter the door.
Jiang Xiaodi heard the noise and ran out of the kitchen, wearing an apron and holding a spatula in his hand: "Sister, you're back——"
This scene made Jiang Fuyue seem to be back to the day when she was reborn.
When I got home from school and opened the door, Jiang Xiaodi came out of the kitchen dressed like this.
only……
The once old and dilapidated apartment building has been replaced by a spacious and bright villa.
The skinny and timid little kid has now grown taller and stronger, and looks like an adult.
The only thing that remained unchanged was probably the look in his eyes when he looked at Jiang Fuyue, which was still so bright and full of surprise.
The word "sister" was called in an intimate and dependent manner.
"What delicious food did you make?"
Jiang Chenxing took out the slippers and placed them in front of her: "Tomato scrambled eggs, braised chicken wings, sweet and sour spare ribs."
"All meat dishes?"
"No... the vegetarian dishes are stir-fried loofah and mapo tofu!"
"Oh, yes," he added, "and there's also pork bone and kelp soup!"
Jiang Da and Han Yunru were not at home, so the brother and sister had lunch together.
Jiang Chenxing served her some rice first: "Sister, is that enough?"
"Well, that's enough."
Then, he naturally took the basin and started to eat.
Jiang Fuyue laughed.
Jiang Chenxing raised her head and blinked blankly: "Sister, what are you laughing at?"
"No...don't just focus on eating, pick up some food too."
"good."
The main reason he didn't take any food was because he was worried that he would eat it all and there would be nothing for Jiang Fuyue. He wanted to let his sister eat first and he would take care of the rest.
Jiang Fuyue put the sweet and sour pork ribs into his bowl...er, basin, and said, "Eat it."
The boy smiled shyly: "Thank you, sister!"
The moment I lowered my head, I couldn't help blushing.
…
In recent months, in addition to operating the store as normal, Jiang Da and Han Yunru have also been gradually handling the relocation matters.
First, Cao Sanpang and his brothers expressed their willingness to follow Jiang Da to the imperial capital after being asked.
"Wherever Big Brother is, I'll be there!"
"If we were aiming for stability, we wouldn't have left Caoji and moved to Linhuai with our family. Now we're just traversing the same path. We already have experience with success, so what's there to be afraid of?"
"That's right! The imperial capital is at the foot of the imperial city. In the future, Jiangji's development platform will only become larger and broader. Maybe it can flourish everywhere, become bigger and stronger, and open branches all over the country!"
"In the past three years since we came to Linhuai, Senior Brother and Sister-in-law have taken care of us in every way. Not only have our salaries been raised time and time again, but they have also taught us how to make our own skills without holding anything back. If we were to break up now, would we still be human? We'd be ungrateful and wicked! Whoever wants to be our boss can do it, but I won't do it."
"Following Big Brother means there's meat to eat. I can't wait to cling to his thigh. Why are we dispersing? Get your ass ready! Let's go to the capital and make a name for ourselves! Maybe we can get permanent residence in Beijing and become chefs or bosses!"
In the past few years, Sanpang and his men have indeed helped Jiang Da a lot, but Jiang Da has never treated these junior brothers unfairly.
Not only did he give them a raise, he also gave them shares in the store and lent them money to buy a house in Linhuai so they could settle down.
And they did not disappoint Jiang Da——
"Okay! Let's go and give it a try!"
The personnel issue was resolved smoothly, and Jiang Da gave several people enough time to arrange their families.
Secondly, there is hesitation in publicity.
Many people still don’t know that Jiang Ji is moving away, and Jiang Da has been unsure how to announce the news.
You know, the successful opening of Jiangji Private Kitchen was inseparable from the support and recommendation of local diners in Linhuai, which led to the opportunity for it to become popular on the entire Internet.
Now that I want to move away, it seems like I'm destroying my bridges after crossing them.
Jiang Da is an honest man, and he just can't get over it.
No one can persuade me.
In addition, Jiangji Private Kitchen’s flavors tend to be sweet and spicy, so it’s likely that they won’t be accepted in the capital.
As for the second concern, Jiang Da is confident that he can solve it.
Recently he has been studying and improving northern cuisine to suit the local tastes.
But as for how to tell the news, he was anxious and had a headache, and he had no idea what to do.
Cao Dou patted his chest and stepped forward: "Leave it to me! I have a way!"
After all, he had learned network operations from Wu Qian, and he had been managing several official accounts of Jiangji in recent years, so he had accumulated a lot of experience.
Soon, he released the news on Weibo, indirectly revealing that Jiang Ji planned to move to the capital.
At the beginning, everyone reacted strongly, with the majority opposing it.
But Cao Dou was not in a hurry. The next day, he released a video of him talking to Jiang Da.
"Big Brother, netizens are asking why you're moving. Do you not love them anymore?"
At that time, Jiang Da was sitting on a small stool, scrubbing the pig intestines with swift movements. "Actually, your sister-in-law and I have been struggling with this for a long time. After all, we have been in Linhuai for so many years, and we are reluctant to leave."
"But considering that Yueyue and Chenxing will both develop in the imperial capital in the future, we have no choice. When Yueyue went to Ming University to study, your sister-in-law was so sad that she secretly wiped away tears at night. If both of them leave in the future, won't your sister-in-law and I be worried about it? Plus, if they are too far away, we won't be able to help them in time if anything happens..."
"Xiaodouzi, when you get married and have children, you will understand how your sister-in-law and I feel."
The video ends here.
Cao Dou added the text: He loves diners, fans, and netizens, but he also wants to be selfish for once and love his own children.
You know what, this whole thing is quite tear-jerking.
Netizens expressed their understanding.
[Isn't it just a move? Jiang Ji is still the same Jiang Ji, and the taste is still the same. It hasn't let us down! It hasn't let anyone down!]
【As a mother myself, I especially understand their feelings】
"Sister Yue and the professor are so busy. When their child is born, won't they need help from their grandparents? Could you please be generous and give our future scientists some space?"
[Sister, your comment is popular]
…
Finally, the issue of renting the store was resolved. The couple approached the landlord, Jiang Guohui, and politely apologized.
Because the lease did not complete the agreed period, they decided not to ask for the deposit, which can be regarded as compensation for Jiang Guohui.
Who knew——
Jiang Guohui waved his fat hand: "Well, it's not a big deal. It's not worth the two of you making this trip in person. Just tell us over the phone."
Han Yunru: "No, no, no, we were the ones who violated the contract first. We only notified you right before we moved out..."
"It's okay! I'll refund your deposit in full, and I'll find someone to rent the store out soon. You guys have made that place popular, and it's now a must-see for tourists. I have you all to thank for this; the value of all my stores in that area has more than tripled."
The other party's words were sincere and his attitude was genuine. In the end, Han Yunru could only agree: "...Okay then."
Jiang Guohui's eyes rolled. "Are you planning to close the shop? That's right, your daughter is so successful, how easy would it be to just go home and enjoy her retirement? The restaurant business is pretty tiring."
Jiang Da waved his hand: "No, we plan to move to the capital and continue to run the store."
"The imperial capital?!" Jiang Guohui's eyes lit up.
“Yes, yes…”
"Brother Jiang, let me tell you, when my daughter Hanhan went to school in the capital, I started buying properties there. Now I'm still in the rental business! Um... Actually, I have a few stores in pretty good locations..."
I originally came here to discuss the termination of the lease, but ended up also getting the store in the capital.
…
The next day after returning to Linhuai, Jiang Fuyue went to No. 1 Middle School.
Well, visiting her lovely teachers.
