Chapter 291: Chapter 268 Joyful, Candid_3

Qi Fenfen blushed and nodded: "I understand, Dad."

While Qi Zhenzhen managed to settle her sister, her mind was entirely focused on her own plan.

Last time, Niu Dajun was snatched away by Qi Xiaoyan.

This time, perhaps it was an opportunity!

Even if it wasn’t an opportunity, Qi Zhenzhen still wanted to watch the drama unfold and disgust He Tiantian. Lately, due to He Tiantian and Qi Jianguo’s issues, Father had been extremely worried and all his connections hadn’t helped.

Did she think just because she was pretty, she could charm everyone?

Did she believe her popularity was enough to command the winds and the rains in Qijia Village?

There’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world!

In the blink of an eye, Huo Yingjie had already been in Qijia Village for four days.

Although he could play with He Tiantian in the mountains every day, with so many people around, even holding hands had to be sneaky.

Every time He Tiantian saw Huo Yingjie’s wistful puppy-dog eyes, she couldn’t help but chuckle to herself.

But she felt a sense of loss too; she actually missed Huo Yingjie’s embrace.

"Brother Yingjie!" He Tiantian whispered to Huo Yingjie, "There’s more grass over there, let’s go cut some."

Huo Yingjie, looking at He Tiantian’s blushing face, nodded: "Okay!"

Seeing He Tiantian and Huo Yingjie head over, Zhang Aijun and Li Yunzhong quickly followed.

"Ahem..." Huo Yingjie coughed twice, "Can you guys stay a bit further back?"

What was this all about!

This wasn’t a perk at all! It was like having two super bright bulbs shining all day long!

"Sorry, Comrade Huo, this is our task." Zhang Aijun refused, not to their liking, but it was the task. Moreover, since the two of them would later be husband and wife, they would appropriately avoid suspicion.

Li Yunzhong tugged at Zhang Aijun, whispering, "Aren’t we being a little too heartless here?"

"Comrade Li Yunzhong, this is a task," said Zhang Aijun with emphasis, "Do you realize you are violating discipline right now?"

Li Yunzhong looked innocent and dared not say more.

So this was discipline, this was a task, huh?

Fine then!

Don’t blame him for pulling out the big guns then!

Huo Yingjie pulled He Tiantian to the other side, and Aunt Liu saw it but didn’t mind. After all, with so many people around, He Tiantian would be safe.

"Little Rotating Turtle, hurry up and immobilize these two human light bulbs," Huo Yingjie muttered in his mind, quite annoyed.

"Light bulbs?" The Little Rotating Turtle crawled out of Huo Yingjie’s pocket and scratched its head, "Are you talking about those bright things in the city at night? But this is the mountainous countryside; there are no light bulbs here?"

Huo Yingjie didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, cursing himself for not realizing that Little Rotating Turtle didn’t understand the other meaning of light bulb.

"I mean those two people," Huo Yingjie said, "make it so they can’t hear us talking, but don’t let others notice anything odd."

In the past few days, the Little Rotating Turtle realized why its master was so restless and promptly nodded: "Okay, Little Rotating Turtle understands."

Having said that, the Little Rotating Turtle cast a spell, and Zhang Aijun and Li Yunzhong’s expressions changed. They began cutting grass with their sickles. From afar, they seemed busy, but up close, one could see that Zhang Aijun and Li Yunzhong’s movements were exactly the same, down to the last detail.

He Tiantian was surprised and asked, "Brother Yingjie, what’s going on with them?"

Huo Yingjie didn’t answer He Tiantian; instead, he hugged her tightly.

The Little Rotating Turtle was in awe; its master was still so direct and eager!

To pretend she was oblivious to the Little Rotating Turtle’s mischief, she put up a symbolic struggle.

Knowing they were outside and afraid of being seen by others, the tension in the air made both of their pores stand on end.

Just as things were getting out of hand, Huo Yingjie stopped.

He couldn’t do this to his Sweet Treasure. On their wedding night, he wanted it to be in a proper setting, not here!

After a while, Huo Yingjie calmed down.

He Tiantian, with a flushed face, buried herself in Huo Yingjie’s arms and wouldn’t come out, as she too had been handsy with Huo Yingjie just moments ago.

Oh, how embarrassing!

"Oh, right, you haven’t said what happened to those two?" He Tiantian asked with feigned curiosity, knowing Huo Yingjie would be suspicious if she didn’t ask.

Huo Yingjie simply explained about the Little Rotating Turtle, so she was in the loop.

In this matter, Huo Yingjie didn’t want to keep He Tiantian in the dark.

"Oh my!" He Tiantian covered her mouth, "No wonder! Ever since this Little Rotating Turtle came to our village and we found the Dark River and it rained, it was all its doing!"
