Su Jinyue walked to the well, picked up the bucket and filled it with water. "Brother Yihan and I have an appointment to go to the mountain to collect herbs."
Xu Tiansheng nodded. "Come back soon, don't be as late as yesterday." He was really worried about her yesterday, thinking she had an accident again like last time. But with Yihan accompanying her today, he was still relieved.
"I promise to be back early." Su Jinyue said with a playful smile and started to brush her teeth and wash her face. She and Yihan had agreed to be back at six o'clock, and now it was almost time.
Song Yiren heard Su Jinyue's words in the room and gritted her teeth in anger. She absolutely couldn't let Su Jinyue and Brother Zhan be alone together, she wanted to go together.
She climbed out of bed and just as her feet touched the ground, a sharp pain spread throughout her right ankle. What happened?
Song Yiren lifted her foot and saw a purple bruise on her ankle. "Despicable!" She knew without a doubt that she had fallen into Su Jinyue's trap.
Zhan Yihan walked into the main room and saw his mother eating breakfast. He walked over and sat down opposite her. "Mom, where's Dad?"
"He went fishing in the river. Why are you up so early?" Wang Meizhen asked. All the farm work at home had been done, and now there was nothing much to do except fertilize the vegetables in the fields.
"I'm going to the mountains with Jin Yue to pick herbs today, so I'll be back a little late." Zhan Yihan said.
Wang Meizhen was secretly delighted when she heard this. "Yihan, I have a question for you." Her biggest worry was that Yihan wasn't emotionally savvy. Now it seemed like he was somewhat interested in Jinyue. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to the clinic to see Jinyue as soon as he returned.
"Hmm!" Zhan Yihan picked up the cake and porridge on the table and started eating. He almost didn't sleep all night last night, and he kept thinking about Jin Yue kissing him.
"What do you think of Dr. Su?" Wang Meizhen stared at Zhan Yihan, waiting for his answer with anticipation.
"Pretty good." Zhan Yihan raised his wrist to check the time and stuffed the remaining biscuit into his mouth.
"Then I will go to Dr. Xu today to help you propose marriage." Wang Meizhen said with a smile.
"Cough, cough, cough!" Zhan Yihan choked on the biscuit in his mouth and felt better after drinking a mouthful of porridge. "Mom, Jin Yue and I are not what you think. I treat her like Yi Ping, just as a younger sister."
Wang Meizhen rolled her eyes at Zhan Yihan. "Doctor Su is a good girl. Don't be ungrateful. You'll regret it later. A few days ago, Mrs. Liu from the east end of the village introduced a girl to Doctor Su. I heard that she's a worker with good character."
Zhan Yihan frowned and stood up, "Mom, I'm going out." He felt uncomfortable when he heard someone introducing a date to Jin Yue.
"Wait a moment." Wang Meizhen called Zhan Yihan and walked to the side, took a piece of oil paper, wrapped a few pancakes, and handed them to Zhan Yihan. "Take them with you and eat them on the way." She would observe the situation for the next few days and then ask Yihan's opinion in a couple of days. Anyway, Yihan would be staying at home for a few more days.
Zhan Yihan took the paper bag and walked outside.
Su Jinyue, carrying her backpack and humming a little tune, walked out of the village in a good mood. She had secretly done something dirty to Song Yiren when she was applying the medicine last night. Song Yiren would definitely not be able to get out of bed for the next three days. As long as she could make Song Yiren lose face, she would be happy.
From a distance, she saw Zhan Yihan standing under the old locust tree. She smiled and waved to him, then ran over quickly. "Brother Yihan, have you been here for a long time?"
"Just arrived. Have you had breakfast?" Zhan Yihan asked. He didn't know why, but when he saw her, his heart skipped a beat uncontrollably.
Su Jinyue smiled and nodded, "What about you?"
"Give me the backpack." Zhan Yihan nodded and reached out to take the backpack from Su Jinyue.
Su Jinyue smiled sweetly, took a step forward, and walked side by side with Zhan Yihan, "Brother Yihan, did you not sleep well last night?"
"Slept well." How could she tell that he didn't sleep well?
Su Jinyue glanced at Zhan Yihan coquettishly, "You have such heavy dark circles under your eyes, it's strange that you slept well." Could it be that she kissed him and that's why he couldn't sleep? Thinking of this possibility, her heart was like eating honey, and her mood became better.
Zhan Yihan touched his face. Is it that obvious?
Seeing Zhan Yihan's actions, Su Jinyue couldn't help but laugh, "Even with dark circles under your eyes, you still look very beautiful."
Zhan Yihan's earlobes blushed slightly. Was she teasing him?
Noticing Zhan Yihan's slightly red earlobe, Su Jinyue's smile deepened. "Brother Yihan, are you dating?" In her previous life, when she was executed, he was still single. Although his friends, family, and leaders had introduced him to potential partners, he had rejected them all. She wondered if he'd ever gotten married, or if he was still like in her dream.
Thinking of that horrible dream, Su Jinyue's heart ached. She would rather he marry someone else than die tragically for her.
"Why are you asking this?" Zhan Yihan looked at Su Jinyue and saw that her face was a little pale. He asked worriedly, "Are you feeling unwell? Why don't we go back?"
Su Jinyue shook her head, smiled slightly, and looked at Zhan Yihan, "I'm fine, you haven't answered my question yet."
Facing Su Jinyue's clear eyes, Zhan Yihan's heart inexplicably throbbed, "No."
"Then let me introduce you to someone. She's beautiful, kind, and smart, and she's perfect for you. You'll definitely be satisfied when you meet her." Su Jinyue said with a smile. Was it too shameless to say that?
Hearing Su Jinyue's words, Zhan Yihan couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, "No need!" She actually wanted to introduce him to someone. Did she really want him to find a partner?
"At least you can meet her and see for yourself!" He refused like that, so how could she continue?
"Don't bother with that. I don't want to see you." Zhan Yihan sullenly walked forward. He didn't know why he was angry, but he just couldn't help being angry.
Su Jinyue shrugged and trotted after him. "Brother Yihan, are you angry?" She really couldn't understand why he suddenly got angry. It was a pity that such an opportunity was wasted.
"No." Zhan Yi said coldly.
"Then why are you walking so fast?" Su Jinyue looked at her legs, then at Zhan Yihan's long legs, and shook her head. For every one step he took, she would have to take three.
"I'm used to it." Zhan Yihan slowed down.
Su Jinyue curled her lips slightly and ran to Zhan Yihan's side. She lowered her head to look at his hand, her eyes turned cunningly, and reached out to grab his hand, but stopped halfway. If she held his hand, would he be angry?
Glancing at Zhan Yihan's hand again, Su Jinyue gritted her teeth and pulled Zhan Yihan's hand. Never mind, just pull it first.
