Chapter 237: Chapter 238: Followers and Younger Brothers (Fourth Update)_1

Indeed, she had been too busy that she had ignored him all afternoon. No, she had outright treated him like an errand boy or a younger brother.

And she hadn’t thanked him once.

No wonder he was not happy.

Nan Feng’s tone grew timid, "Then... I promise I won’t neglect you next time. Whenever you come, I’ll ensure that you feel my presence, okay?"

She was held captive by him and couldn’t budge even if she wanted to.

"How?" He breathed warmly on Nan Feng’s face again.

Nan Feng proactively hugged him and, like a little bird, nested her face on his chest, "Just like this. Is that okay?"

He seemed to stiffen momentarily before pulling her into a tight embrace.

Nan Feng was now immobilized. She felt as if he was moulding her into his very being.

Nan Feng could hear the occasional chirping of cicadas from the trees in the courtyard, the noisy streets, and the chatter from the next courtyard over.

But what struck her the most was the strong heartbeat of him.

"Nan Feng, I miss you more and more," he murmured as he embraced her.

Nan Feng replied, "Me too."

"I want to keep you close to me, wherever I go," his words were so cheesy.

"I also want to be bound to you, follow you everywhere," Her words were even cheesier.

However, they knew very well that they both had different things to do.

He was the person Nan Feng loved only when he did what he liked, and it was the same for Nan Feng.

Those sweet words were only like seasonings that made the atmosphere sweeter.

He blindfolded Nan Feng again with a handkerchief.

Nan Feng couldn’t comprehend why he would blindfold her or keep her in the dark light before their kisses, but she didn’t want to ask.

Perhaps men of his generation were all like this—it could be a conventional practice, local belief, or lack of confidence in his appearance.

Regardless, she enjoyed his kisses.

It was so sweet and exciting, especially since she couldn’t see his face.

However, he didn’t kiss her for very long before he let go, finally opting to kiss her forehead gently. "Nan Feng, it’s time for my shift, I’ll come to see you tomorrow," he said softly.

Meanwhile, he gently removed the handkerchief from her eyes.

"Okay," she responded softly.

She wasn’t the type of woman who lingered and clung to the man.

Yet, he gave her one last squeeze before turning to leave.

After He left, Nan Feng felt a slight sense of loss, but she was always able to quickly shift her attention.

Thus, she began busying herself once more.

...

"Miss Feng, Miss Feng?"

The evening before the shop opening, Nan Feng was cooking in the small house when she heard excited voices outside and rushed out.

Outside the house, all of Aqiu’s friends were present—there were ten ladies in all, eight from Daping Village, and two were Aqiu’s cousins who were from the neighboring village.

It had been a long time since they last met, so everyone surrounded Nan Feng with laughter and bombarded her with questions. She heard Fat Girl say, "Miss Feng, we missed you so much. You’re different now that you’re in town; you’re more radiant."

"Of course, I don’t have to work in the field anymore, naturally I won’t get sunburnt."

Aqiu said. "It’s all thanks to Miss Feng’s secret formula. Can’t you tell that Fat Girl and I are prettier? We used Miss Feng’s secret formula."

"What kind of magical formula is that?"

"..."

Nan Feng looked past the ladies and saw the towering figure of Him at the entrance of the courtyard.

He had brought all the ladies over for her.

Seeing that Nan Feng was looking at him, he waved to signal that he had completed his task and was about to leave.

He would leave Nan Feng to spend time with her sisters.

Nan Feng waved back, then ushered Aqiu and the other ladies into the house. "Please come in. After we eat, I’ll tell you all about the magical secret formula..."
