As soon as she got up, Leng Fengmei quickly brushed her teeth and washed her face. Just as she was wondering whether she should send the children to training today, she heard a knock on the door.
Knock knock…
Leng Fengmei opened the door and was surprised to see Zhou Zhan. "Are you alright?"
"Yes, I wanted to tell you not to interfere with the children's training!" Zhou Zhan said, then turned and left. He had thought about it for a long time last night. As long as he could stay by her side, as long as she gave him a little love, he dared not hope that she would treat him the way she treated Jia Renyi.
Zhou Zhan felt heartbroken and helpless. He had hated himself before and suppressed his feelings, but when emotions came, they erupted like a volcano... He had no choice but to release them, otherwise he would not only be consumed by flames, but his heart would be torn apart!
Leng Fengmei quickly woke the children up and sent them off, then called Zhang Er over, "We're leaving tomorrow, so get ready: crystal cores, weapons, and your own personal belongings!"
"Yes, boss!" Zhang Er's mouth hadn't closed since he found out yesterday that his boss was going to take him under his wing! In fact, he had been prepared for this for a long time.
He was all smiles to everyone he met along the way, which made everyone's hearts pound with unease!
"Erzi, what have you been grinning about these past few days? What, you've got someone you like now?" Everyone burst into laughter after he said that.
"What do you know..." Zhang Er hummed a little tune and left!
"Zhang Er, come here!" Xiao Zhiqiang said, pulling Zhang Er into the house. "What did the master call you for just now?"
"Go ask him yourself!" Zhang Er said with a disdainful look.
"Zhang Er, don't think your master is going to take you away. He doesn't care about anyone anymore. Do you believe I can make you go?" Xiao Zhiqiang's green face was full of threat!
"I'm telling you, okay? Don't make a fuss. The boss is planning to leave tomorrow!" Zhang Er said softly.
"Hmph! You don't need to tell me that." With that, Xiao Zhiqiang left!
Zhang Er looked completely bewildered! "Who is it?!"
After finishing breakfast, Jia Renyi and Leng Fengmei went about their own business.
The children train for three hours every day, and Aunt Liu makes sure they are well taken care of.
As Leng Fengmei packed her things, she wondered if she had forgotten anything. Suddenly, she remembered Yun Sheng and his mother. Aunt Liu had told her that Jiang Hongyun had opened a clinic nearby, but she hadn't had time to go there yet.
I heard the business is doing quite well. Although crystal nuclei can provide treatment, they are hard to come by, and for minor injuries and pains, medication is still necessary!
Leng Fengmei decided to go check on things after she finished tidying up. Just then, Xiao Zhiqiang's voice rang in her mind, "Master!"
"What is it?" Leng Fengmei asked while tidying up.
"Hanhan said she wanted to eat barbecue the other day. Since everyone's here today, how about we get together tonight?" Xiao Zhiqiang knew his master preferred quiet, so he came up with a reason that his master wouldn't refuse!
"Then you make the arrangements. I'm going to see Yunsheng later, so I'll invite them along!" After saying that, she glanced at everything to make sure nothing was missed and then left.
Xiao Zhiqiang was overjoyed when he heard his master agree. Only he could sense that his master longed for a wider world. For some reason, he felt a sense of emptiness in his heart. "Master, no matter where you go, don't forget me... us!" Xiao Zhiqiang murmured softly.
"Boss, what are you doing?" Jia Yi said, slapping Xiao Zhiqiang on the shoulder.
Xiao Zhiqiang trembled with fear. "You little bastard, you dare to be so disrespectful to me every day!" he said, kicking Jia Yi in the butt. Jia Yi let out a howl and tried to run away.
"Come back!" Jia turned to look at him. "Call a few of the brothers and get ready for barbecue tonight!"
"Boss, what day is it today?" Jia Yi asked, looking puzzled.
"It's a good day, let's decorate the rooftop properly..." Looking at Jia Yi's stupid look, "Forget it, I'll do the decorations. You just take care of bringing people to prepare the ingredients and utensils."
When Leng Fengmei arrived at Jiang Hongyun's place, she saw her treating someone's scrapes. Leng Fengmei didn't disturb her, but just looked around. The setup was the same as the old clinic, the room was neat and clean, and there were several potted plants on the windowsill...
"Commander Leng, what brings you here?" Jiang Hongyun asked with a grin.
"I've wanted to see you all for a long time, but I haven't had the time. Where's Yunsheng?" Leng Fengmei asked in confusion.
“She went to kindergarten. Oh, by the way, you didn’t know, did you? A lot of people have come recently, and there are more children. So Commander Zhou brought people to clean up the kindergarten. You know the principal, she’s the former kindergarten teacher, Jiang Xue.” Jiang Hongyun said as she poured Leng Fengmei a glass of water.
"How are things between you and Yunsheng lately?" Leng Fengmei asked with concern after taking a sip of water.
Jiang Hongyun remained silent for a while...
"Sister Leng, I've realized I've fallen for someone, but I don't know what he thinks. Could you ask him for me?"
"Do I know the person you like very well?" Leng Fengmei was also very curious; who doesn't love gossip? Seeing her nod, she asked, "Who is it?"
"That's right, Commander Zhou!" he said, then lowered his head somewhat embarrassedly.
Leng Fengmei almost choked when she heard this. What a melodramatic plot! You love him, but he loves someone else, and that someone else is still you.
"Hongyun, I think you should ask him yourself. There's a dinner party tonight, and Commander Zhou will be there too. You and Yunsheng should come over early! I won't bother you any longer." With that, he got up and tried to leave.
"Sister Leng... Ai!" Jiang Hongyun was about to say something when she disappeared.
Leng Fengmei climbed to the rooftop in one go, wanting to get some exercise. As soon as she got up there, she saw Xiao Zhiqiang and his group of people busy with something.
"Master, you've arrived! Look how my arrangements are going!" Xiao Zhiqiang beamed – a giant green chrysanthemum!
"It's fine, don't work too hard. That's enough. We're all family." Leng Fengmei looked at the scene, with its colorful lights and balloons, making it look like a wedding celebration.
