Chapter 278 Only You Are Left
The scene before me was bustling with activity, and the staff members were all smiles, as if everything was moving in a positive direction.
Zhong Wan felt a sense of relief wash over her instantly.
No matter what the future holds, at least the beginning was good, so it can be considered a success.
Zhong Wan looked around with a smile, but unexpectedly spotted a familiar figure outside the crowd.
Her gaze paused, she squinted, and said with surprise, "Director Qin is here too?"
Lin Yan'an was also taken aback when he heard this. Then, following Zhong Wan's gaze, he saw Director Qin's figure. He was dressed in casual clothes, with only Pang Wenyao by his side. He was quietly watching inside, his eyes smiling and his gaze gratified.
Lin Yan'an was also somewhat surprised that he would come in person: "You really came."
After saying that, the two exchanged a glance and walked through the crowd.
The two walked side by side to Director Qin. Zhong Wan greeted him with a smile, "Director Qin, what brings you here?"
Upon hearing this, Director Qin's smile broadened considerably. Looking at the bustling square inside, and seeing his grandfather watching the lion dance with a broad smile, his eyes softened considerably.
"Such a joyous occasion, of course I have to come and share in the happiness."
At this point, his gaze shifted to Zhong Wan, and he praised her with great satisfaction, "Comrade Zhong Wan is also very capable, bringing new life to this place."
Upon hearing this, Zhong Wan immediately understood.
It seems that Director Qin did indeed know about what happened here.
That makes sense, they should have checked by the time she chose to believe them.
Zhong Wan smiled and nodded her thanks: "Thank you for the compliment, Director Qin, but it was mostly due to their own hard work. There wasn't much I could do to help."
"But the most crucial factor is still you; your contributions cannot be ignored."
Director Qin's voice was firm, and his gaze toward the buildings seemed to deepen: "Old wounds need to be healed, and new life needs to be guided, and only you can do that."
He paused after speaking, then looked at Lin Yan'an and added, "Yan'an, you also contributed to this."
Lin Yan'an smiled and nodded: "I just did what I could."
As the three were talking, Grandpa Zhou and Grandpa Qin noticed the commotion and walked over together with smiles on their faces.
When Grandpa Qin saw that familiar figure, his smile widened even more: "You brat, it's rare that you have time to come and join in the fun?"
Upon hearing this, Director Qin turned his head to look at the group and replied respectfully, "Dad, Uncle Zhou."
"I had some free time, so I came to take a look. It's well done."
Hearing this, Old Master Qin was extremely proud: "That's right, you don't even know who was in charge of it."
Grandpa Zhou nodded with a smile.
Director Qin smiled and nodded, noticing that they both looked to be in good spirits. He pondered for a moment and said, "Dad, Uncle Zhou, the business has opened here, and you've seen enough of the excitement. Shouldn't you come back with me?"
As he spoke, he glanced at Uncle Zhao and Uncle Sun, and nodded slightly, saying, "And Uncle Zhao and Uncle Sun should also go back and rest."
The two elderly people were taken aback upon hearing this. Looking at the lively scene inside, they were genuinely reluctant to leave. However, after exchanging a glance, they ultimately nodded in unison in agreement.
Old Master Qin nodded helplessly: "Alright, it's time to go back."
Grandpa Zhou smiled and said, "Yes, we've been here for so many days, it's time to go back."
Although it's a little hard to say goodbye, all good things must come to an end.
When Zhong Yuansheng and He Qilan heard the news, they were very reluctant to let him stay.
But the two old men were adamant.
They had no choice but to give up.
"Old Zhong, Xiao Lan, don't worry, we'll come back to play when it gets warmer. Don't mind if we do come back then."
Seeing their reluctant expressions, Grandpa Zhou chuckled and teased them.
Grandpa Qin retorted, "Yes, don't worry, we'll come again in a while."
Without pausing, he enthusiastically invited, "Why don't you two, Lao Zhong and Xiao Lan, come to Kyoto with us?"
"There's plenty of room in the house, enough for you to stay in."
Hearing this, He Qilan quickly smiled and shook her head: "No, no, Uncle Qin, we're not busy at home. We just opened, and Lao Zhong and I are worried about you."
Zhong Yuansheng agreed with this point: "Yes, yes."
Faced with parting, the group was somewhat reluctant, but they also understood that everyone has their own social circle and pace of life, and the two old men were no exception.
They repeatedly promised to come over once it got warmer.
He Qilan and the others then helped them into Director Qin's car.
After the excitement subsided, life gradually returned to normal.
The resort opened smoothly and officially began operations. There are dedicated personnel in charge of operations, and He Qijiang and He Liqun are competent in their management duties.
Zhong Wan and Lin Yan'an then decided not to interfere much in daily affairs.
After the lively fifth day of the Lunar New Year ended, Lin Yan'an was ready to officially resume work. The original plan to leave on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year was also changed due to the arrival of Director Li and his team.
On the evening of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, he packed his bags and decided to go with them the next day.
Although Zhong Wan was somewhat reluctant, she knew what was important.
As she helped check the items, she looked at Lin Yan'an and said, "Take good care of yourself on set."
"Don't worry, I will."
Lin Yan'an put the last piece of clothing into the suitcase, zipped it up, and then turned around and gently embraced Zhong Wan.
His chin rested gently on Zhong Wan's head: "You too, when you're alone in the shop, you need to eat on time. Don't forget, even though Ah Gui is capable, you can't rely on him to cook."
"I've already talked to Chen Mo and the others. If you're too lazy to cook, you can come over and eat something."
Upon hearing this, Zhong Wan felt a warmth in her heart. She raised her hand to hug Lin Yan'an and nuzzled her head affectionately against his chest, saying, "I know, I'm not a child anymore."
"Besides, the shop isn't busy, you know. I just sit here all day, it's very relaxing. Once your filming schedule isn't too demanding, I'll come over and visit you."
"good."
Lin Yan'an lowered his head and gently kissed her forehead: "I'll wait for you to come find me."
"Uh-huh."
Zhong Wan nodded with a smile, then tilted her head slightly and met his deep eyes at a glance.
Lin Yan'an's arm around her moved slightly, and he subconsciously covered the back of her head with one hand, while also leaning his head towards her.
He aimed precisely at her red lips, his kisses gentle yet ambiguous, filled with deep reluctance and longing. At first, it was just a fleeting touch, but soon it gradually deepened.
His hands started to wander as well.
Only when their clothes were half undone and their breathing became unsteady did Lin Yan'an slowly release her, but his forehead was still pressed tightly against hers, and the tip of his nose was ambiguously brushing against hers.
"Wanwan..."
