The lunch was very rich.

Pig's trotters stewed with peanuts, black fungus and rapeseed, braised crucian carp, stir-fried pork liver, cold cucumber, braised eggplant, crispy shrimp, and scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

Eight dishes filled the table, each of them looked delicious, fragrant and mouth-watering, making Xu Yunzhuo and Zhan Yang look surprised.

These...were all done by Mr. Su alone?

They simply couldn't imagine Mr. Su, who looked like a nobleman, standing in the kitchen with an apron on and cooking with a spatula. The scene was too abrupt.

Su Ling politely asked them to sit down and placed chopsticks and spoons and bowls for them to drink. Lu Feng took the chopsticks from him and handed them to Xu Yunzhuo, who stood up fearfully.

"Thank you, Mr. Luo. I can do it myself..."

Xu Feng gave him a cold look, and Xu Yunzhuo sat down reluctantly, and together with Zhan Yang, they were served by the boss and his wife.

The embarrassing scene in the living room that morning was still lingering in my mind. Now, I was sitting at the same table with Mr. Rui to have a meal, feeling very uncomfortable and not knowing what to do with my hands and feet.

Su Ling scooped rice from the rice cooker, noticing their discomfort, and said with a smile, "You are Lu Feng's right-hand men. We didn't have the chance to meet before, but today is a rare opportunity for us to meet. Don't be polite, just treat this place as your own home."

Xu Yunzhuo and Zhan Yang accepted the meal and were flattered. How could they have had the chance to know each other before? President Lu clearly distinguished between public and private affairs and attached great importance to his privacy. Even though they were assistants to the president, they never dared to get involved in the boss's private affairs. In addition, Mr. Su had never been to the company, let alone attended banquets with President Lu, so it was normal that they did not know each other.

If it weren't for President Lu's marital crisis this time, they probably wouldn't have known Mr. Su until now.

After serving the rice, Su Ling sat down, picked up his chopsticks and said to them, "Try my cooking and see if it suits your taste."

Xu Yunzhuo gritted his teeth and picked up a piece of pig liver to eat. After chewing it twice, his eyes lit up.

"tasty!"

Pork liver is not easy to fry. If the heat is not controlled well, it will become fishy and tough, like eating mud. However, the pork liver fried by Mr. Shen is fresh, tender and delicious!

"If it tastes good, eat more." Su Ling's eyes curved like two crescents.

"Hmm!" Xu Yunzhuo was really hungry. He had been traveling all night and had a quick bite in the morning. Now, he was almost starving.

The two assistants tried their best to remain reserved and focused on eating.

Su Ling picked up the spoon and served a bowl of pig's trotter soup to Lu Feng. "Someone in the village killed a pig yesterday, and I bought two pig's trotters. I stewed them today, just right for you to replenish your body."

With a tender look in his eyes, he said softly, "Thank you for your hard work in cooking so many dishes."

Su Ling held her chin up gracefully, her beautiful peach blossom eyes smiling and full of energy. "Cooking is quite simple, just follow the recipe and you will be able to do it."

Xu Yunzhuo put down his chopsticks and looked at him with admiration. The skill of cooking is not something that anyone can learn by just looking at a recipe. Talent is crucial.

Under Su Ling's caring gaze, Lu Feng drank the soup and ate the meat, praising it: "It's great."

Su Ling raised his lips and picked up a few crispy river shrimps with his chopsticks. "I caught them in the stream yesterday afternoon. They taste different from prawns."

The fried stream shrimp is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Eating it with the shell and the meat together is fragrant, crispy and chewy.

Lu Feng ate three or four of them and gave some vegetables to Su Ling. "Let's eat together."

"Okay." Su Ling took a bite and suddenly thought of something. He asked the two assistants, "Would you like some wine? The village chief brewed a jar of white wine some time ago and gave me two bottles. They are not opened yet."

Xu Yunzhuo and Zhan Yang shook their heads at the same time. "No, no, thank you Mr. Su."

They were fed a bowl of dog food by the interaction between Mr. Rui and Mr. Su, and they wished they could shrink and disappear.

They ate the meal with gusto and trepidation. They couldn't help but sigh that Mr. Su's cooking skills were really good and that Mr. Rui was so lucky.

After the meal, Xu Yunzhuo took the initiative to clean up the dishes, and Zhan Yang helped. Seeing how enthusiastic they were, Su Ling let them do it.

"I'm going to the fields in a while. Will you stay at home and rest?"

On the corridor, Su Ling was playing with Lion with a cat toy, while King was joining in the fun. Lu Feng was sitting on a bench with his whole body tense, staring at the two little creatures with his sharp eyes.

"Still want to broadcast live?" Lu Feng frowned.

Su Ling raised the cat-teasing stick high, and the cat jumped high and bit the feathers on the cat-teasing stick.

"Great, Lion!" Su Ling squatted down, stroked Lihua's chin, looked up at Lu Feng and said, "I hired people to harvest the rice, I have to go check on the progress."

Lu Feng asked: "Are you not going back to S City with me?"

Su Ling picked up the kitten and sat next to him. Lu Feng's body stiffened visibly and he lowered his eyes to look coldly at the arrogant little thing.

"I don't want to go back for now." Su Ling said honestly, "The air in the countryside is good, it's quiet, and it's comfortable to live in."

Ru Feng stared at his face in silence.

In the past, when he looked at her like this, Su Ling would involuntarily soften her heart and compromise unconditionally. But now her mood has changed and she has learned to follow her heart.

Without making a sound, Su Ling looked away, put the cat down, stood up and asked, "Would you like to go out for a walk with me?"

Lu Feng looked at the smile on his face and held his hand.

Su Ling still had a childish heart. He took a big straw hat and put it on Lu Feng's head, thus dressing up a high-ranking group leader as a farmer.

Lu Feng pulled the string tied around his chin with some discomfort, and Su Ling, who also wore a straw hat, raised his eyebrows at him. "This is called a husband singing and following his husband."

His words successfully stopped Lu Feng from pulling the rope.

The two walked out of the yard hand in hand and saw three rice harvesters busy on the basketball court.

Since the rice fields were full of water and it was inconvenient to thresh the rice, the rice harvesters tied the harvested rice into bundles and piled them on the basketball court. Two people threshed the rice while one tied the straw bundles, and they worked together seamlessly.

"Mr. Su."

"Mr. Su..."

Seeing Su Ling, the rice farmers greeted him warmly, while looking curiously at the tall man next to him.

They all saw what happened on the country road. However, knowing that same-sex marriage is legal is one thing, but seeing two men being affectionate with each other is another.

"Hello." Su Ling asked, "Have you had lunch?"

"We've eaten," said Dao Ke. Their wages didn't include lunch, so they brought their own. They ate steamed buns with warm water until they were full and full, and they worked very hard.

"Okay, keep going."

Su Ling took Ruifeng to the fields. When they met familiar villagers on the way, he greeted them calmly and introduced Ruifeng to them generously.

In the morning, many villagers saw a luxury car driving into the village. A man with extraordinary momentum got out and hugged and kissed Mr. Su. Later, Mr. Su took him to the Su family compound and did not come out for a long time. Everyone was guessing the man's identity.

Now they were all surprised to learn that this tall and handsome man was Mr. Su's partner.

It turns out that there are really men marrying men!

The people in the city are indeed open-minded.

Lu Feng looked indifferent, ignoring the constant curious glances, and silently followed Su Ling on the field path. His expensive leather shoes were inevitably covered in mud.

"This rice field and three vegetable greenhouses are all my land." Su Ling presented a treasure to Lu Feng like a child, then turned and pointed to Phoenix Mountain, "That is the tea mountain, producing Rain Dew Tea. When I first came here, the tea merchants who used to cooperate with Second Master actually wanted to take the opportunity to lower the price. Fortunately, I knew the tea market, reversed the situation, and raised the price."

Lu Feng touched his delicate cheek. "It's hard for you."

Su Ling said with a little pride: "Doing business is not as difficult as I imagined."

"Well." Lu Feng praised generously, "You did a great job."

"Of course." Su Ling raised his delicate chin with a proud look on his face. "Look, I've been working hard here for more than three months and have achieved fruitful results. Why should I give up and go back to S City?"

Lu Feng looked at him deeply, his usual domineering aura disappeared in front of Su Ling, especially when he saw Su Ling's arrogant little expression, a hint of doting was faintly revealed.

"Happy?" he asked.

"Yeah, I'm happy." Su Ling said, "The mountains and rivers here are beautiful, and the people are simple. After living here for a long time, my mood becomes peaceful and my creative inspiration keeps flowing. I like the tranquility here."

Lu Feng placed his broad palm on the straw hat on his head and said softly, "Since you like it, stay here until you get bored."

Many times, Lu Feng obeyed Su Ling in everything. For example, when Su Ling said he didn't like living in his family home, Lu Feng bought a villa in Xiangyan Mountain.

Su Ling was in a good mood and pulled Lu Feng under a tree.

There was a huge rock under the tree, which was often climbed by people and had a very smooth surface. He jumped up easily, bent down and reached out to Lu Feng.

Lu Feng held his hand and used it to climb up.

It was cool under the tree. The two took off their straw hats and sat comfortably on the boulder, with their backs against the tree trunk. In front of them was the busy scene of farmers harvesting rice, a scene full of vitality.

A breeze blew, lifting Su Ling's loose curly hair. The afternoon sun shone through the dense leaves onto his face, casting a layer of hazy light on him, making him look noble and holy.

"After you left for business, I received a call from a lawyer." Su Ling took the initiative to bring up what happened three or four months ago. "The lawyer said someone left me an inheritance and asked me to inherit it."

He turned to look at Lu Feng, smiled and said, "At first I thought it was a scam call, so I blocked him directly."

Li Feng stretched out his arms, naturally put them around his shoulders, and bent down to kiss his hair gently.

Su Ling leaned against his chest, grabbed his other hand, and held his palm against his.

"Lawyer Zhang is a good and responsible lawyer. Even though my second grandfather passed away, he still fulfilled his commission conscientiously. He made inquiries from many sources to find me, and he kept changing his phone number to call me, and finally convinced me."

"I hadn't originally thought of coming to the countryside... But that night I suddenly had a high fever and felt sick all over. You weren't by my side, and your phone was turned off when I called you. I thought you were annoying me and didn't love me anymore. I was so heartbroken that I almost suffocated... I didn't want to hate you, nor did I want to embarrass myself, so I decided to divorce you, set each other free, and live well... If I had known you were in the operating room at the time, I would definitely not have left the divorce agreement and walked away."

Su Ling bit her lip and slowly told what happened during this period. "I was not used to the countryside when I first came here. I felt uncomfortable everywhere. There was no convenience like in the city. I had to do everything myself, selling tea leaves, farming, paying wages, building new roads... I was so busy every day that I didn't have time to think about anything else. I unconsciously adapted to the life in the countryside..."

Rui Feng listened quietly, and slowly tightened his arms, almost holding him in his arms.

"I'm sorry...baby."

Su Ling interlocked his fingers and shook them tightly. "I was just imagining things and getting stuck in a rut. Now that I've figured it out, I won't worry about it anymore."

Turning around, he faced the man and said seriously, "When two people spend less time together, they will lack communication. I've told you my problem, so why don't you be honest with me? You've been on business trips to Country L a lot this year, could it be that you've got a mistress outside? Hmm?"

"No." Lu Feng quickly denied.

Su Ling narrowed his eyes. "From a psychological point of view, denying something too quickly makes it more suspicious."

Lu Feng held his face and kissed his lips. "I don't want anyone else except you."

Su Ling hummed a few times: "Where did you learn such sweet words?"

Although he looked disgusted, the upturned corners of his mouth betrayed his good mood.

Lu Feng said seriously, "There are many more. Do you want to hear them?"

Su Ling pinched his face and pulled it sideways, deforming his handsome face.

"I won't count it all at once. I'll tell you later." He moved closer to the man, his nose almost touching his, and whispered seductively, "Think carefully, is there anything else you forgot to tell me?"

Lu Feng lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes trembled, and his voice became slightly hoarse. "You haven't had a physical examination in more than four months."

This was an obvious attempt to change the subject. Su Ling gritted her teeth, buried her head in his arms helplessly, and complained, "I'm in good health. I don't need regular checkups."

There are too many items in the physical examination, and it takes a lot of time to complete them all at once, especially the blood draw. He is really afraid of it every time he draws blood.

"No, your health is the most important thing. You can't be careless about it." Lu Feng's tone was unquestionable.

Su Ling knew that his fever during the vacation had frightened his partner, and Lu Feng had always been cautious about his health and would not question it.

"Okay." He sighed and said, "My teacher is holding an art exhibition at the end of the month. I'll go for a physical examination when I return to S City."

Lu Fengjian frowned slightly, as if he was not satisfied with this answer. "Come with me tomorrow."

"Tomorrow is too urgent." Su Ling came out of his arms and pointed at the rice field, "There's a lot of work to do!"

After the rice is harvested, the next step is to harvest the rice fish, and then we have to figure out how to sell the grain and the fish. It will take at least ten days or half a month to finish the task.

"If you are busy with work, you can go back to S City first." Su Ling said.

Lu Feng was silent for a while, then said, "I'll accompany you."

Su Ling patted his shoulder. "No, I'm not a child. I don't need you to accompany me."

Lu Feng didn't bother him with the question. "After the physical examination, come with me to visit the main family."

"Hmm?" Su Ling was slightly startled. The family? Going back to the old house of the Lu family?

Lu Feng said: "It's Grandpa's ninetieth birthday, we must be present."

The Rui family was a large clan. When Grandpa Ruifeng celebrated his birthday, all relatives had to come back to attend the banquet. Su Ling could fully imagine how spectacular the scene would be.

However, he was definitely not welcome as a male daughter-in-law who could not give birth to children.

Lu Feng held his hand tightly and said in a deep voice, "I'm here."

Su Ling shrugged, pulled out a piece of grass and bit it in his mouth, and said fearlessly: "It's okay, I can handle it myself."

If he was afraid, he would not have insisted on marrying Lu Feng. His copper walls and iron arms could withstand any external attacks, but they could not withstand the collapse from within.

He gave Lu Feng two chances, but unfortunately he avoided the question and refused to explain. Nothing can be too much, so he hoped that he could confess as soon as possible.

Su Ling tilted his head, looked at Lu Feng's strong body sharply, and licked his lips.

I hope he can take better care of himself, otherwise he doesn't mind teaching him personally.
