Chapter 73: Midnight Onset



Mr. Gong, Gong Yan, and Gong Qi were all surprised when they heard what Gong Fanrui said.

"What's wrong? Xiao Rui, we've only been here for three or four days, why are you letting us go?" Gong Qi asked, "Besides, Third Brother still wants to help you with work. You don't have to do anything while Third Brother is here. We have all taken a long vacation. We will leave after the autumn harvest."

"Oh, there was no warning at all. We wanted to stay for a few more days, but suddenly they asked us to go back." Mr. Gong also said.

"What's wrong? Grandpa doesn't want to go back?" Gong Fanrui asked Grandpa Gong alone.

"This time, Grandpa came here, in addition to coming to see you, he also wanted to walk around. This place is beautiful with clear water and a strong pastoral atmosphere. Grandpa wants to stay for a few more days."

"What's so good about this place? It's just a shabby place. Grandpa is the only one who says this place is so good. I'm tired of it."

She thought for a moment and said, "Besides, I think what Grandpa said is very true. I should exercise properly. You are preventing me from exercising here."

Mr. Gong and Gong Qi looked at each other, and Mr. Gong said, "If that's the case, it's simple. Just don't let Gong Qi do the work for you."

"But Third Brother would definitely not have the heart to see me working hard in the fields, so he would still help me. Now that you're gone and can't see me anymore, he definitely won't help me anymore."

Mr. Gong was still very confused and couldn't help frowning. He asked Gong Fanrui, "What did you say to your dad when you went to the post office to make a phone call just now?"

There was no rumor about letting them go before, and she had always hoped that Gong Qi could help her with the work. Why did he change his mind as soon as he came back?

"No, nothing. I just care about you and want you to go back early. I also hope you go back so as not to disturb my exercise."

"Your father must have educated you to be able to endure hardships and work. This old man is really strange. I have never heard him educate you like this before. Alas, he himself is not a hardworking person. I didn't expect that he would educate you now."

"It proves that my dad has made progress. Grandpa, you must give me this opportunity. You all should stop staying here. When you are not busy in the farm, you can come here to relax."

Mr. Gong really wanted to fulfill his granddaughter's wish, but Yu Jingjing's hand was not healed yet.

"I'm going to go see how Comrade Xiaoyu's hand is doing. If she doesn't need us anymore, we'll leave here."

"Okay, go and take a look." But in her heart she cursed Yu Jingjing for being so troublesome. She was afraid that Yu Jingjing would pretend that her hand was not healed, so she went with Old Man Gong.

Mr. Gong stopped her: "Don't go over to Comrade Xiao Yu."

"Grandpa, I want to make peace with her. You know I don't want anyone else to share the love that Grandpa has for me with me. When you leave, I will get along well with Yu Zhiqing."

"Really? You and her weren't on good terms when we weren't here either."

"I, I will change."

Mr. Gong didn't say anything else and went to find Yu Jingjing.

"Comrade Xiao Yu, how is your hand?"

Yu Jingjing couldn't lie to Mr. Gong, "It's almost done. I should be able to go to work in the fields."

The old man paused for a moment before saying, "In that case, we can go back to Beijing now."

"You have to leave, Grandpa." Yu Jingjing felt sorry for Gong Fanrui because she didn't want to have any contact with Grandpa Gong. In fact, deep down in her heart, she didn't hate Grandpa Gong at all. Instead, she hoped that Grandpa Gong could stay here for a few more days.

In the past, not only did Old Lady Yu dislike her father, even Old Man Yu didn't treat her father very well, so she was not loved by them since she was a child.

It was only after Mr. Gong came that she felt the kindness of her grandfather from him. She had never felt that kind of warmth before.

But Mr. Gong was leaving, and she couldn't stop him.

From what Mr. Gong saw, it seemed that Yu Jingjing was a little reluctant to let him go. He was happy in his heart, but at the same time, he really didn't want to leave.

But then I heard Yu Jingjing say, "Grandpa, when are you leaving? I wish you a safe journey."

The old man's face fell, but Yu Jingjing still hoped that he would leave.

"Tomorrow, or maybe the day after tomorrow."

"oh."

Without saying anything else, Mr. Gong went back.

Gong Qi was reluctant to leave and was still discussing with Gong Fanrui: "Xiao Rui, why don't you let Grandpa and Gong Yan go back? Third brother will stay here with you."

Gong Fanrui wanted this arrangement the most. The only people he wanted to send away were Old Man Gong and Gong Yan.

But if Gong Qi helps her with the work here, her lie about wanting to be independent and strong will be exposed.

She said to Gong Qi very obediently: "Third brother, I understand that you care about me, but I really don't need you here, I can do it myself."

Gong Qi raised his hand and touched her head. "It seems that our little girl has really grown up. Well, since you are so determined, Third Brother will not force you, but you must take good care of yourself."

"I know." She said to Mr. Gong, "Why don't you leave early tomorrow morning?"

"Are you in such a hurry to let us go?" Old Master Gong frowned.

"I really want to train myself as soon as possible and make myself stronger." Gong Fanrui explained to herself.

"Okay, okay, since you want us to leave so much, then we'll leave early tomorrow morning." Mr. Gong said with a smile.

After dinner, Mr. Gong wanted to talk to Yu Jingjing, but it was already late, and he was afraid it would be inconvenient for him to go to the little girl's house, so he went back to his room.

Gong Yan didn't go anywhere else and just stayed in the house.

Only Gong Qi was talking to Gong Fanrui, as if they had endless things to say.

Jiang Wan was still thinking about Gong Yan. She didn't understand why Gong Yan was so cold and indifferent to her except for the first day he met her.

Is her system not working again?

She asked the system: "Why is Gong Yan not interested in me again?"

The system replied perfunctorily: [Host, this is his problem, not yours. You must firmly believe that you are the most beautiful and the most attractive. 】

"So what's his problem?"

【I guess he doesn’t like women. 】In fact, the system itself is paralyzed.

This was the first time it had failed since it came to this world and bound itself to a host.

In the past, it was invincible and unstoppable.

It's not that problem, it's definitely because Jiang Wan, the host, is too useless.

Alas, if it had been bound to Jingjing at the beginning, it would have been a sure hit.

Even Gong Fanrui is better than Jiang Wan.

Jiang Wan didn't give up and took the initiative to find Gong Yan. Gong Yan and Old Man Gong had already closed the door and were ready to go to bed. Seeing her coming, Gong Yan took the initiative to walk to the door and asked, "It's so late, is there anything wrong, Jiang Zhiqing?"

His expression was indifferent, without any ripples.

Jiang Wan was a little disappointed. Did Gong Yan have feelings for him?

She deliberately acted charming and shy, with her two watery eyes, looking at Gong Yan shyly and timidly, trying to seduce Gong Yan.

"Well, Comrade Gong, I know you are leaving tomorrow. I wonder if we can see each other again in the future?"

Gong Yan still had his original expression, and his tone did not change much.

"I don't know yet. If Xiaorui were here, we might come again."

"Comrade Gong, the moon is quite round today. Why don't we go over there to admire it together?" She pointed to the middle of the yard, where the moonlight was indeed the brightest.

But Gong Yan was not interested at all, "Not yet, we have to take the train early tomorrow morning, we need to have a good rest tonight."

But even after he said that, Jiang Wan had no intention of leaving and still stood at the door without moving.

Seeing her like this, Gong Yan could only speak quickly, "Um, Jiang Zhiqing, my grandfather and I need to rest, please go back."

"Gong, Comrade Gong."

"But I still have something to tell you."

"If you have anything to say, please say it as soon as possible. I don't think there is much to say between us."

Jiang Wan thought of confessing her feelings to Gong Yan directly, but how could she do that since she was standing at the door?

Gong Yan said: "It seems that Jiang Zhiqing has nothing to tell me, so I will close the door."

The door was slammed shut with a bang, isolating Jiang Wan from inside, and also shutting back the words that Jiang Wan was about to say.

In another room, Zhao Yuan couldn't control his gossipy nature and asked Yu Jingjing, "Comrade Gong Yan helps you with your work every day. Does he have that kind of feeling towards you?"

Yu Jingjing nodded at her head: "What are you thinking about? You are interested in me just because you help me with work? I thought Comrade Lu Yunyang liked you."

"He likes me? No way, he deliberately told me that he has azoospermia, he must be afraid that I will look at him. But I won't look at him either, he is such a narcissistic guy."

"So Comrade Gong and I don't think that's what you think. Don't make random guesses."

Zhao Yuan lay down and covered himself with the quilt. "Okay, okay, I won't say any more. Let's lie down and sleep. We still have to work tomorrow."

Soon, everyone fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, panicked voices were heard from the rooms of Mr. Gong and Gong Yan.

"Grandpa, please don't be in trouble. Please don't be in trouble. I'm going to find Yu Zhiqing."

"I'm going to find Xiao Rui."

Gong Yan and Gong Qi said at the same time that they wanted to find her, and immediately went there.

Gong Qi patted Gong Fanrui's door and said, "Xiao Rui, Grandpa is sick again, you should get up and save him."

Gong Fanrui was sleeping soundly and was awakened by the loud knocking on the door. She felt a little annoyed.

Then, hearing that Mr. Gong was ill, he got up reluctantly and went to put on his clothes.

Gong Yan knocked on Yu Jingjing's door and told her once about Mr. Gong's illness, and Yu Jingjing got up immediately.

"Comrade Gong, I will go and save Grandpa Gong immediately."

She got up very quickly and woke up Zhao Yuan next to her. Zhao Yuanmei didn't ask and Yu Jingjing didn't explain. She quickly got out of bed, opened the door, and went to the old man's room.

She first felt the old man's pulse and checked for other physical symptoms. When she took the silver needle to give the old man acupuncture, Gong Fanrui rubbed her eyes and came over with Gong Qi.

The two of them and Gong Yan watched Yu Jingjing giving acupuncture to Mr. Gong, and Gong Fanrui had no chance to use her skills.

She suddenly felt a little frustrated. Why didn't she come over faster? Yu Jingjing took over the work again.

Gong Qi didn't care about all this and went over to check on Yu Jingjing's treatment of Old Man Gong.
