Lin Ran couldn't help but see the fear in Zheng Sanya's eyes. She couldn't help but rub her head and asked:
"Saya, did anyone see you when you came over just now?"
Zheng Sanya tilted her head and thought carefully before answering:
"No one should have seen me. I just ran into Aunt Qin's grandson when I first joined the team, but I was in the car and he was so short that he definitely couldn't see me."
Knowing that no one saw it, Lin Ran immediately told her:
"Then when you go back, don't tell anyone you've been back. Do you understand? Don't tell anyone."
Zheng Sanya nodded obediently.
Seeing that Zheng Sanya had listened to him, Lin Ran felt relieved and finally had time to care about other things.
She calculated the time it took to get here from the county town and asked uncertainly.
"Have you had lunch? You didn't run out without eating, did you?"
“Gugugugu…”
Perhaps Lin Ran's question worked, because before Zheng Sanya could say anything, her stomach rumbled as if to indicate so.
It seemed like a response to Lin Ran.
Zheng Sanya's cheeks immediately turned red, and she covered her belly tightly with her hands in embarrassment, but she still refused to admit it.
"I'm not hungry, Sister Ranran."
Lin Ran naturally didn't believe her, but luckily there were some egg cakes and peach cakes at home, so she took them all out and handed them to Zheng Sanya.
"Eat something to fill your stomach first."
Under the threat of Lin Ran's unyielding gaze, Zheng Sanya had no choice but to pick up the snacks and eat them.
After settling Zheng Sanya, Lin Ran did not forget Xu Xiangfeng.
Since Zheng Sanya didn’t have lunch, that person probably didn’t have lunch either.
She packed another plate of egg cakes and peach cakes, and made a cup of scented tea and brought it out.
"Comrade Xu, please send Sanya over. We didn't prepare anything at home, so we only have some snacks. Please make do with them to fill your stomach."
When Xu Xiangfeng saw what Lin Ran brought out, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
This doesn't look like being unprepared.
Are the conditions in the countryside so good?
Even if he entertained guests at home, he wouldn't be so generous.
But he soon thought that it was impossible to get tickets in the countryside, and these only snack tickets must have taken a lot of effort to get.
These might be the snacks that people have kept in their closets.
"Comrade Lin is too modest. These are all good things, but I'm not hungry. Let's not waste them."
To be honest, Xu Xiangfeng was extremely hungry.
He was originally planning to go home for dinner, but who would have thought that he would meet Zheng Sanya on the way.
So he has been delayed until now and hasn't eaten. How can a grown man not be hungry?
But no matter how hungry he was, he couldn't take advantage of others.
So at this time I resolutely refused to touch the snacks.
Lin Ran pretended to be sullen.
"Comrade Xu is avoiding me like this. Does he look down on my dim sum?"
"No way, no way! These things are hard to buy even in the county town. I only eat them occasionally, so how could I possibly not like them?"
Xu Xiangfeng waved his hands repeatedly.
Lin Ran just said that on purpose, she naturally knew Xu Xiangfeng's concerns.
"In that case, Comrade Xu, don't worry and eat. We still have snacks at home."
"Then I won't be polite."
Now that things had come to this, Xu Xiangfeng couldn't refuse any longer and just picked up a piece of peach cake and started eating it with the scented tea.
As soon as he took a sip of tea, Xu Xiangfeng's eyes lit up.
“This tea smells so good!”
Lin Ran introduced with a smile:
"This is jasmine tea that I dried myself. If Comrade Xu likes it, I have an unopened bag that you can take back to try."
"That won't do. I'm in such a mess after eating and taking so much!"
Xu Xiangfeng could not do such a thing, especially since he was a soldier and could not take a single needle or thread from the common people.
Although he really likes this floral tea.
I guess his parents like it too.
Especially his mother, she loves these flowers and plants the most.
"What's the big deal? It's not worth much. I picked these flowers myself and dried them myself. It just took a little effort."
Lin Ran was still trying her best to persuade him.
Finally, Shi Yan, who was sitting next to him, couldn't stand it anymore after hearing this.
Why do I always feel that Lin Ran is particularly enthusiastic towards Xu Xiangfeng?
It's for making snacks and scented tea?
It’s the scented tea made by Lin Ran herself!
He has never drunk it!
Now you're sending a pack to Xu Xiangfeng?!
What about him?
Thinking of this, he stared at Lin Ran with a resentful look on his face, and slightly opened his thin lips.
"Comrade Lin, I also want to try the flower tea you brewed yourself."
The tone is sour.
But Lin Ran didn't pay any attention. She just casually replied, "I'll make it for you later," and turned around to continue talking to Xu Xiangfeng.
She also hoped to bribe Xu Xiangfeng so that he would not talk nonsense when he returned.
But Shi Yan didn't know what Lin Ran was thinking. Seeing Lin Ran treating him so perfunctorily and comparing him with Xu Xiangfeng, he immediately became jealous.
At this moment, he was so unhappy with Xu Xiangfeng that he couldn't help but interrupt:
"Comrade Lin, please don't force Comrade Xu. Comrade Xu is a soldier. How could he possibly like tea made from flowers and plants? I guess he was just being polite just now.
But I am different. I really like flower tea. If Comrade Lin really wants to give it to me, he can give it to me. I will definitely treasure it!"
After saying that, he stared at Lin Ran eagerly.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Xu Xiangfeng, who had just wavered a little, immediately echoed and said:
"Since Comrade Shi likes it, then let's give it to Comrade Shi."
Lin Ran glared at Shi Yan unhappily. Why was this guy joining in the fun?
She had just finally managed to convince someone, but now it was all gone.
Shi Yan felt really wronged for being stared at for no reason.
He finally managed to drive Qin Jianye away, but unexpectedly Xu Xiangfeng showed up.
Judging from Lin Ran's performance, it feels like this person is a greater threat than Qin Jianye.
What should I do?
Are you sure you still have a chance?
Lin Ran had no idea of Shi Yan's worries. At this moment, she was laughing dryly.
"Comrade Xu will take you with him. It's a rare opportunity for you to come here, unlike Shi Zhiqing who lives close by.
Actually, I have some that are almost done drying, so if Shi Zhiqing wants any, he can come get them anytime."
After saying that, she went back to the house and soon took out a large bag of scented tea.
It was placed directly next to Xu Xiangfeng.
Xu Xiangfeng is not stupid. If he had not reacted before, he would inevitably become suspicious when seeing Lin Ran being so enthusiastic.
However, he didn't think Lin Ran had any thoughts about him. After all, Lin Ran's eyes were full of frankness, making it impossible for him to misunderstand.
Perhaps only Shi Yan, a fool blinded by love, would think that Lin Ran might be interested in Xu Xiangfeng.
At that moment, Xu Xiangfeng asked directly.
"Comrade Lin, if you have anything to say, please tell me directly. If I can help, I will definitely do my best to live up to my uniform. You don't have to rack your brains."
Now that it was pointed out, Lin Ran had no choice but to tell the truth.
"Excuse me, Comrade Xu. Actually, I want to trouble you with something. Could you please not tell anyone else that San Ya came back today?"
