Chapter 34 Going to the supermarket together



Su Ling called the advertising manager.

The other party was a woman named Ruan Wenya, the sales manager of the H City Tea Merchants Association. She had contacted the advertising company and brought the crew to Shixi Village for filming. She hoped that Su Ling could arrange for everyone to live in the village so that they could work nearby and save time and effort. If they stayed in a hotel in Liuxian Town, the round trip would take more than two hours each day, not only wasting time on the road, but also delaying work.

Su Ling readily agreed. There were guesthouses and farmhouses in the village, enough to accommodate more than 20 people.

Ruan Wenya was relieved and said that they would arrive at Shixi Village at three o'clock in the afternoon and Su Ling had five hours to prepare.

After hanging up the phone, Su Ling and Lin Feng went to the bathroom to take a shower, and then went to the village committee together.

The two of them walked side by side on the village path, inevitably attracting attention.

A few girls came towards them, one of them was Zhang Cuihua. When she saw Su Ling, she called out in a delicate voice, "Brother Su~"

Su Ling nodded calmly. The first time he heard her call him "Brother Su," he'd gotten goosebumps, but after hearing it so often, he'd grown numb to it. Zhang Cuihua was a diligent, enthusiastic, and down-to-earth country girl. Although she'd always looked at him with admiration, she'd kept her distance after learning he was married.

When Lin Feng heard this name, he frowned, calmly held Su Ling's hand, and interlocked their fingers.

Zhang Cuihua and the other girls naturally saw his obvious action. When they accidentally met his indifferent gaze, the girls lowered their heads and hurried away.

Su Ling nudged Lin Feng with his shoulder and said unhappily, "Relax your expression and don't scare people."

Having been in a high position for a long time, Lin Feng has an intimidating majesty. When his face is stern and his eyes are sharp and cold, he often makes people feel intimidated.

Holding Su Ling's hand tightly, Lin Feng obediently restrained his outward arrogance.

In the village committee office, the village chief and several cadres were holding a newspaper, reading the news and chatting. When they saw Su Ling come in with a tall man, they all looked over.

"Xiao Su, is this... your friend?" the village chief put down the newspaper and asked, his eyes drifting towards the two people's tightly clasped hands, stroking his goatee.

"He's my lover, Lin Feng." Su Ling introduced generously, "I've been living in the village for a long time and haven't been back. He was worried about me and came all the way from S City to see me."

The village chief's piercing eyes looked back and forth between the two young men, and he sighed, "Times have really changed. You are luckier than Old Man Su."

Su Ling was slightly surprised. Did the village chief know about the relationship between Second Grandpa and Grandpa Bai?

Seeing the confusion on Su Ling's face, Village Chief Jin lifted his drooping eyelids and said, "The three of us grew up together when we were little. How could I not know about their affairs?"

It’s just that people in that era were reserved. Even if they liked each other, they would not show it obviously. At most, they would hold hands or hug in private.

Su Ling smiled, took Lin Feng to sit on the empty chair next to him, cleared his throat twice and said, "Boss Qi called me and said that the crew shooting a commercial for our tea mountain will arrive in the village at three o'clock in the afternoon. Due to time constraints, they want to eat and stay in the village. I came here to discuss with you what arrangements would be most appropriate."

Since the new road was built, more than a dozen homestays and farmhouses have opened in the village, and the environmental conditions are uneven. In order to avoid accidents and disputes in the future, the village committee adopted Su Ling's suggestion and standardized them, requiring them to have the six certificates required for legal operation, such as health permits, business licenses, fire inspection certificates, etc.

In addition, the village committee evaluates the homestays and farmhouses into one, two or three grades based on their indoor facilities, service quality and catering features, and gives a price range for each grade to strictly put an end to the practice of deceiving customers.

There are more than 20 people coming to the advertising crew this time, and one homestay definitely cannot accommodate them all. We need at least five, each with more than four rooms, and it is best if they are next to each other for easy care.

The village chief took out a folder from the cabinet, which contained the registration form for the homestay, which recorded in detail the location of each household, number of rooms, number of people served, price range, etc.

"Take a look for yourself and choose the one that suits you." Village Chief Jin handed the folder to Su Ling.

Su Ling took it and flipped through the pages, patiently selecting five. They had standard four-bedroom apartments with bathrooms, broadband, and air conditioning, and were close to the tea fields, which perfectly met his requirements.

After choosing a homestay, Su Ling then discussed with the village chief and village cadres how to maintain order in the village, restrain the villagers, and not disturb the filming of the advertising crew.

Lin Feng sat beside them, quietly watching Su Ling chatting with the old man. He exuded an air of elegance and confidence, his eyes were clear and bright like stars, and a faint smile hung on his handsome and flawless face, making him look very energetic.

Ten minutes later, Su Ling and Lin Feng left the village committee office and strolled home.

As they crossed the bridge over the creek, Su Ling looked up at Lin Feng in confusion. "Why do you keep peeking at me? Do you suddenly notice that I've become more handsome?"

Lin Feng raised his hand and gently pinched his cheek. "Not as handsome as me."

Su Ling was angry, his eyebrows raised, and he stared at him threateningly.

Lin Feng bowed his head slightly and kissed his smooth forehead. "Very beautiful."

Su Ling's face tensed up, and he stretched out his finger to poke his chest. Yue Tang said, "Men can't talk about beauty."

Lin Feng smiled and said, "Hmm... beautiful."

Su Ling's move was as fast as lightning. He pinched his waist without hesitation. Lin Fengming let out a muffled sound, and a fire burned in his dark eyes. Su Ling saw that the situation was not good and ran forward. Lin Feng strode to catch up with him.

The two ran into a small forest one after the other. Lin Feng stretched out his long arms and embraced Su Ling, and then pulled Su Ling into his broad arms.

Su Ling looked up and was about to speak when a domineering kiss fell on him, almost taking his breath away.

"Hmm?" Su Ling grabbed Lin Feng's clothes, his eyes widened, his heart beating fast, but soon, he also got involved.

The dense foliage of the grove formed a perfect barrier, hiding the figures of the two people.

Su Ling was a little unsteady on his feet, so Lin Feng hugged him and walked forward a few steps, letting his back lean against a tree trunk. With the support, Su Ling slowly relaxed and reached out to hug him back.

A gust of wind blew, and the leaves rustled. In the distant fields, people were busy harvesting rice, and the shouts seemed to be near and far.

After an unknown amount of time, the two reluctantly parted ways.

Lin Feng's face was buried in his neck, breathing heavily. Su Ling hugged him tightly, tilted his head slightly, revealing his white swan neck, his peach blossom eyes sparkling with water, and he looked at the sky in a daze.

If the conditions had allowed it, they would have lost control and started a wild fight.

It’s so annoying!

Su Ling recovered and pushed the man.

"It's noon, I have to go back and cook."

Lin Feng slowly let him go.

When they arrived home, Aunt Zhang had already finished cleaning the yard and gone home. The two little pets were happily playing on the grass, sometimes jumping on each other and biting each other, sometimes chasing each other back and forth, and running around the yard. Noticing their owner had returned home, the cat and dog ran over and circled around her.

Lin Feng stood aside to avoid being touched by the small animals.

Su Ling didn't point it out. He squatted down to pet Lion and scratch King. After playing enough, he let them play by themselves and walked into the house with Lin Feng.

"You wait in the living room, I'll go cook." He said to Lin Feng.

"Together." Lin Feng rolled up his shirt sleeves.

"Can you cook?" Su Ling looked at him doubtfully.

"No." Lin Feng was very honest. "You can teach me."

Su Ling nodded: "Okay."

Ten minutes later, he resolutely drove the man out and stood at the kitchen door, saying with a troubled look on his face, "You, go sit in the living room obediently."

What's wrong with him? He's asking a CEO who has everything handed to him to do his bidding. He pulls all the leaves off the vegetables when washing them, peels potatoes with the skin and flesh attached, asks him to pick onions in the backyard, and he pulls a weed for you...

In short, the more you ask him to help, the more trouble you will cause.

Lin Feng was scolded by his wife, but he remained calm and stayed at the kitchen door, refusing to leave.

Su Ling was anxious about the food in the pot, so he just left it alone and started stir-frying it hastily.

Lin Feng leaned against the door frame, gazing deeply at his busy back. The cold and hard features of his face softened little by little, revealing a look of deep affection.

Su Ling knew Lin Feng was looking at him, but he was too busy cooking to pay attention. This guy had been staring at him fiercely when he was in the village committee office, as if he were a piece of cake, tempting him all the time.

But he has a dull personality, never says anything, and stares at people with a burning gaze. If it were someone else, they would have been terrified by his stare. However, Su Ling could clearly feel his emotional fluctuations since they started dating, and she could endure that possessive look without any pressure.

Su Ling skillfully stir-fried two plates of vegetables, a plate of braised pork, and stewed a pot of black chicken soup.

Yesterday's pig's trotter soup and today's black chicken soup are both very nourishing soups. Lin Feng took a sip and said, "Let's go to town to buy some things this afternoon."

"Hey?" Su Ling frowned, "Is it too late?"

The advertising crew arrived in the village at three o'clock in the afternoon. It is almost twelve o'clock now. It takes two hours to drive to the town and back. I am afraid I will not be able to catch up to receive them.

Lin Feng picked up a piece of braised pork for Su Ling and said, "I can't make it back in time, so let the village chief receive you first."

Su Ling thought about it and said, "Okay."

Anyway, everything has been arranged. When the person arrives, we just need to take him to the B&B to check in.

After dinner, the two went out together, driving Su Ling's newly bought car, the luxury car that Lin Feng drove when he came, and he gave it back to his assistant yesterday.

A car worth hundreds of thousands of yuan cannot be compared with a luxury car worth millions of yuan. The low-profile is not stable enough, and it will float if the speed is too fast. Su Ling applied the brakes and tried to maintain a speed of 50 miles per hour.

Lin Feng sat in the passenger seat, looking at the scenery outside.

"I'll ask Aunt He to come over tomorrow," he said.

"No, she might not be used to being here." Su Ling refused.

Aunt He is the nanny of their Xiangyanshan Villa. She has been working at home since they got married. She is conscientious and responsible in her work and keeps the housework in order. With her help, Su Ling lives his life as he pleases.

Although having her around was a relief, Su Ling was worried that her family was in S City, and it would be troublesome to travel back and forth during the holidays, so it would be better not to come. Moreover, he didn't plan to live in the countryside forever, but he had things to do right now and didn't want to leave for the time being.

Lin Feng turned around and looked at his perfect profile, and said in a low voice: "I thought you didn't like those things."

Su Ling went over his words in his mind and roughly knew what he was referring to. He curled his lips and sighed, "What can I do? Life forces me."

He used to dislike dealing with strangers, doing business, and even less showing up in public. But he'd already spent five or six million of the ten million he brought with him in just a few days. He was simply too extravagant. At the rate he was spending, the remaining three or four million wouldn't last him a year, so he had no choice but to bend over backwards and find ways to make money.

Lin Feng said, "...Why did you only take 10 million? There's 100 million in the supplementary card I gave you."

Su Ling turned the steering wheel, drove out of Liuhouting and turned onto the national highway. When he heard Lin Feng's words, he frowned.

"For a person like me who stays at home and does nothing, 10 million is more than enough for me to get in divorce," he said.

Lin Feng tapped his fingers lightly on his legs and said softly, "10% of the shares of Lin Group belong to you."

"squeak--"

The car braked suddenly, and the tires rubbed against the ground violently, making a harsh sound.

Su Ling parked the car on the side of the road, put the car in neutral, turned around and stared at the man in disbelief.

10% of Lin Group's shares? How many billions is that?

Is he actually a billionaire?

"No..." Su Ling asked, "When did it happen? How come I don't know?"

As the person involved, he had no recollection of it at all. He held 10% of the shares but had never even attended the shareholders' meeting. If Lin Feng hadn't said anything today, he would have been kept in the dark and had no idea about it.

Lin Feng met his questioning gaze without dodging or avoiding it. "After we got married, I transferred 10% of my 40% stake to you. I included the transfer agreement with the purchase contract and signed it for you."

Su Ling stared at him in amazement. No wonder Lin Feng had insisted on adding his name to the property ownership certificate when they bought the villa in Xiangyan Mountain. Out of trust in Lin Feng at the time, he hadn't even read the contract and had just signed it when asked to. Unbeknownst to him, he had ended up owning 10% of the Lin Group's shares!

"You...are you stupid?" Su Ling said, both angry and amused. "You only have 30% of the shares. Aren't you afraid that other shareholders will surpass you and take control of the group?"

"You and I together, it's still 40%." Lin Feng said calmly.

"I almost divorced you!" Su Ling gritted his teeth.

Lin Feng held his hand and stroked the wedding diamond ring on his ring finger. "You can't bear to leave me."

"Narcissistic!" Su Ling glanced at him, pulled his hand back, shifted back into gear, stepped on the accelerator and continued driving, but the corners of his mouth involuntarily curled up.

Arriving at the largest supermarket in Liuxian Town, Su Ling parked the car, pulled Lin Feng in, pushed a shopping cart, went to the seafood area first, bought some shrimps, crabs, sea fish and shells, and then went to the living area to buy some washing supplies.

When passing by the adult products area, Lin Feng turned around and walked in calmly.

Su Ling, who was pushing a shopping cart: ...

Lin Feng stood in front of a row of condom shelves, choosing seriously.

The salesperson saw him and asked with a smile, "Sir, do you need any help?"

Lin Feng ignored her words, picked up a box of exquisitely packaged condoms, and asked Su Ling, who was waiting outside, very naturally: "How about the strawberry flavor?"

Veins popped out of Su Ling's forehead, and he wished he could dig a hole in the ground with his feet and crawl into it.

The shopping guide looked at the tall and handsome man, then at the tall and handsome young man, smiled knowingly, and walked away considerately.

Su Ling pushed the shopping cart and came to Lin Feng. He stepped on his leather shoes without any hesitation and crushed them hard. Seeing Lin Feng's frown, he moved his foot away and smiled elegantly: "Sorry, I wasn't paying attention and accidentally stepped on your foot."

Lin Feng relaxed his brow, found the largest size on the shelf, picked up a box of different flavors and types, and threw them into the shopping cart.

The corner of Su Ling's mouth twitched: "Isn't twenty boxes a bit too much?"

There are three in a box, so twenty boxes make sixty!

"Not many." Lin Feng said, "Ten a day, and they'll be used up in six days."

Su Ling: ...

When he and Lin Feng first got married, they did have a record of ten in one day.

Weakly rubbing his forehead, Su Ling pulled his hand and walked out. If he stayed any longer, he was worried that this guy would get some other strange props!

Under the cashier's ambiguous gaze, Su Ling gritted his teeth and paid the bill, then walked out of the supermarket quickly. Lin Feng followed him calmly, carrying two large bags of things.

At 2:40 p.m., the two rushed back to Shixi Village.

As the car arrived at the entrance of the village, we found that there were more than ten cars of different sizes parked in the square under the banyan tree. A group of brightly dressed outsiders gathered together, looking excited and discussing something.

Su Ling parked the car on the side of the road, opened the door and got out. He walked over and saw the village chief and several village cadres surrounded by people. He asked in confusion.

"Village Chief, what happened? Why are all the people gathered here?"

Village Chief Jin seemed relieved to see him return and said, "You've come just in time. This celebrity doesn't like the conditions of our B&B and doesn't want to stay there. He's now clamoring to stay in a hotel in town."
