When Zhao Linlin and Zhao Qian brought the luggage to the room, Father Zhao explained to Old Master Zhao and Mother Zhao why two boys had suddenly appeared.
During the meal, Mother Zhao asked casually.
“Yes, Auntie.” Jiang Xianyou specially stopped eating when he replied.
He was very polite.
“I’ve already explained to Uncle at the bus station that we didn’t know that Mo Qian’s parents weren’t home before we came, so we rashly followed her over. Now that we know, it’s not good to stay at her house. So, I’m afraid we’ll have to disturb Auntie for the next few days.”
“It’s nothing. It just so happens that Linlin’s classmates came to play and Zhao Qian is on leave. Zhao Qian is about the same age as you guys. He can be your companion. It’s indeed more suitable for you to stay in our house than at Qianqian’s.”
Zhao Qian replied happily as he ate, “My mother is right. We can be companions. I heard that you guys are here to look for inspiration. I can be your guide. I know the best about the scenery around our village.”
Jiang Xianyou smiled and nodded. “I’ll have to trouble you in the next few days.”
“It’s just a small matter.”

They finished the meal happily.
Zhao Linlin brought everyone out for a walk.
Although there were many families in the village, the houses were not close together. Furthermore, Zhao Linlin’s family was in the innermost part of the village. She basically wouldn’t meet anyone when she went out for a walk at this time.
After they left, Zhao Qian, who was helping to clean up the dishes, called Father Zhao and Mother Zhao to open the greeting gifts their guests had brought.
Because Zhao Linlin had reminded Zhao Qian that the gifts her classmate sent might be a little expensive.
Zhao Qian felt that he had to let his parents know about this, so he said it.
Indeed, after hearing him out, Father Zhao and Mother Zhao felt that it was better to open it first. If it was too expensive, it was best not to accept it.
They were entertaining their daughter’s friends, so it was not appropriate for them to accept expensive gifts.
As he opened the gifts, Zhao Qian searched on his phone.
They fell silent when they saw the prices.
“Dad, Mom, what should we do? These gifts are very expensive. It’s not appropriate for us to accept them, right?”
Actually, it wasn’t very expensive, at least in Yan Jinyu, Qin Xuan, and Chu Xiaohuan’s opinion. Considering Zhao Linlin’s personality, they didn’t buy anything too expensive. The most expensive ones weren’t even more than 10,000 dollars.
“How can you return a gift? If your sister’s classmates find out, how will your sister interact with them in the future?” Old Master walked in with a tobacco pipe stick in his mouth.
“Just accept the gift. Just treat it as an ordinary gift. Don’t show that you already know the value of this gift in front of the guests. You even specially checked the price after receiving the gift. What will the person who gave it think if they find out?”
“Dad, that’s not what we meant…” Mrs. Zhao quickly said.
“We’re family. Of course, I know that’s not what you mean. You just don’t want to accept a gift that’s too expensive for Linlin to hold her head up high in front of her classmates. However, the people who gave the gifts don’t know you well, so they might think too much about it.”
“Don’t make things difficult for Linlin.”
“Just make more delicious food for those children when they are guests at home for the next few days. I think they’re all smart. They must have thought through this gift carefully. I guess if they didn’t have any concerns, they would probably buy something more expensive.”
“Dad, you’re right. I heard from Linlin that her classmates have a good family background. I thought that it was just ordinary good. When I brought them back today, I heard them chatting and saying that we’re suitable to develop a tourism business here. It’s as if developing a tourism business in a place like ours is very simple for them.”
“Don’t care who they are. Just know that they’re Linlin’s classmates.”
“Alright, alright. Keep these gifts. Don’t gather around here. It will look bad when the children come back from their stroll and see us like this.”
“Alright, alright. Take these gifts. Don’t gather them here. Wait for the children to come back from their stroll and see what they look like.”
“Grandfather, are you saying that… those medical books that you treasured the most that I can’t even touch usually?” Zhao Qian had just returned from school yesterday and didn’t know that Old Master had agreed to lend them out.
Old Master glared at him. “How can you be the same as them? You’re not cut out for this. Linlin has read those books. We can’t be petty. That young lady lent Linlin her exclusive medical book. According to the content that Linlin described to me over the phone, I know that it’s more precious than my books.”
“Your sister has made a group of incredible friends.”
With mixed emotions, Zhao Qian went to look for the medical books.
Father Zhao and Mother Zhao looked at each other. Father Zhao kept those gifts and Mother Zhao went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
Old Master was sitting in the living room smoking a pipe.

“Linlin, the air in your village is really good! Especially at this time. The evening wind is windy and the frog sounds are everywhere. It’s refreshing.” Chu Xiaohuan walked at the front of the small path in the field and opened her arms to lament.
Zhao Linlin chuckled. “You’re exaggerating.”
“Xiaohuan isn’t exaggerating at all. It does feel very good.” Qin Xuan looked at Yan Jinyu. “Jinyu, what do you think?”
“Very good.” Under the night sky, under the hazy moonlight, she could see the faint smile on Yan Jinyu’s face.
Looking at her, Qin Xuan couldn’t help but lament, “Jinyu, I realize that no matter what happens, you’re very calm. When can I be like you?”
“You don’t have to be like me. You’re already doing very well.”
If she didn’t have many extraordinary experiences, how could she have a calm heart?
Those experiences might not be good.
“I’ve gone to the mountains with Feng to pick herbs before, so although it feels good to see such scenery, I won’t have such a huge reaction like you guys.”
“The mountains? What kind of mountains are they? Is it like Linlin’s village?” Chu Xiaohuan pointed at the mountain not far behind her and asked.
“Pretty much.” If she told them that she would only go to remote primitive forests to pick herbs with Feng, they would probably be even more frightened.
Chu Xiaohuan, “No wonder. Xuanxuan and I exclaimed all along the way, but you didn’t react.”
Qin Xuan wanted to say that Yan Jinyu didn’t have any reaction because she was calm whenever something happened.
However, she was still very surprised by what Yan Jinyu said about going to the mountains with Min Rufeng to pick herbs.
It was obvious that Jinyu and the Second Young Master of the Min Family had a very good relationship.
As for why they had such a good relationship and why Yan Jinyu was related to Min Rufeng, Qin Xuan didn’t want to investigate further.
Jiang Xianyou and Yang Jun were also a little surprised when they heard their conversation.

They didn’t expect Yan Jinyu to have actually gone to the mountains to pick herbs with someone.
No matter how they looked at it, Yan Jinyu gave them the feeling that she was thin, weak, and had a weak body. It was hard to imagine that she had gone to the mountains to pick herbs with others.
“Who were you talking about just now? Is he your boyfriend, Schoolmate Yan?” It wasn’t that Yang Jun was gossipy, but he was simply curious.
This was the second time he had heard the name “Feng” ever since they met. Especially from their conversation, it was not difficult to tell that “Feng” was a person with excellent medical skills and had an extremely good relationship with Yan Jinyu.
However, Yang Jun didn’t know why everyone’s reaction was so drastic when he simply asked casually.
Everyone, including Jiang Xianyou, suddenly stopped in their tracks and looked at him. Everyone’s gazes… How should he put it? It made Yang Jun feel a chill down his spine.
“D-did I say something wrong?” He was just asking a question. If it was, it was. If it wasn’t, it wasn’t. Otherwise, she could have ignored him and not answered him. There was no need to have such a huge reaction, right?
Most importantly, Jiang Xianyou also joined in the fun. He was even more confused and flustered.
“He’s not my boyfriend. We’re good friends,” Yan Jinyu replied. Her tone was rare and serious.
At the same time, Jiang Xianyou said, “Don’t talk nonsense.”
Yang Jun looked at Jiang Xianyou strangely before hurriedly saying to Yan Jinyu, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean anything else.”
Sensing that the atmosphere was a little unbearable, Yang Jun hurriedly changed the topic, “Um, I heard that you guys are going to the mountains to pick herbs. Are you going tomorrow morning? Or do you want to rest for a few days first?”
“We’ll go tomorrow morning,” Zhao Linlin replied.
She was the host.
Fortunately, Yang Jun was a smart person and quickly changed the topic.
After Zhao Linlin said that, she glanced at Jiang Xianyou.
It seemed like Jiang Xianyou knew Jinyu very well.
It was very clear that he even knew Jinyu had a fiancé and they couldn’t easily joke about her boyfriend’s identity.
Obviously, Jinyu also knew who Jiang Xianyou was.
Xuanxuan and Xiaohuan seemed to know too, but she didn’t know anything about him.
However, who cares? Anyway, they were not from the same world. They would not have any interactions in the future.
“Tomorrow morning. Are you going to that mountain?” Yang Jun pointed to the mountain not far away, which was also the mountain behind Zhao Linlin’s house.
“Yes, we’ll go there first tomorrow. It’s closer.”
“Then, can you bring me and You along? We’re here to find inspiration. We can’t be deliberate when it comes to finding inspiration. We just have to walk around casually. You guys go to the mountain to pick herbs. We’ll follow you. We can even help you carry things.”
“You want to go with us?” Zhao Linlin didn’t expect that. She thought that they would prefer to go alone.
After all, it was not easy to find inspiration with them, who could be rather noisy.
That was what she thought.
“Yes, will it be inconvenient? Actually, our thoughts are very simple. We can achieve our goal and look at the natural scenery if we go with you guys. We can also help you guys carry things. If you meet insects and snakes in the mountains, with us two boys around, it’s better than you girls entering the mountain alone.”
The others didn’t think so. Only Zhao Linlin thought about it and felt that it was true.
“Alright, we’ll set off at seven tomorrow morning. Can you get up?”
“Seven o’clock. So early?”
“Is it early? Wake up at six, wash up before having breakfast and we can set off at seven.”
Yang Jun’s tongue was tied. “Wake up at six?” Ever since he went to university, he had never gotten up before seven thirty.
“Isn’t this normal waking time?” Zhao Linlin was very puzzled. In school, she usually woke up at this time.
“If you can’t get up, we’ll go ourselves…”
“It’s fine. We can get up. Let’s go together,” Jiang Xianyou interrupted Zhao Linlin.
Yang Jun had a bitter expression. When Jiang Xianyou glanced at him indifferently, he quickly swallowed the words that he was about to say.
Normal waking time?
She was indeed a top student in the Imperial Capital University. Her self-control was simply beyond his.
“Alright, it’s settled then. Have breakfast at six thirty sharp tomorrow morning. I’ll get up to cook.”
She would even get up to cook breakfast?
Yang Jun was even more impressed.
On the way back, the two boys fell a few steps behind.
Yang Jun asked softly, “You, I’m just asking if the person they mentioned is her boyfriend. Why is everyone’s reaction so big? Even you.”
Under normal circumstances, Jiang Xianyou might not have said much. Thinking about Yang Jun’s relationship with him, he pondered for a moment and said, “She has a boyfriend, or rather, she has a fiancé. Her fiancé is an important person whom we can’t afford to offend. Don’t ask others about their private matters in the future. Otherwise, you might offend someone with your words.”
“A… a big shot? What kind of big shot is that?” Yang Jun was a little stunned.
“Don’t ask so much. You just have to know that he’s someone that even the Jiang Family can’t afford to offend.”
Hearing that, Yang Jun couldn’t calm down for a long time.
He could roughly guess the level of a person that even the Jiang Family could not afford to offend.
It was just too surreal.
Why did he meet such a person when he came to the countryside to experience nature?
He thought that what they said in the tricycle previously about being the same as the richest man was simply an argument. He didn’t expect…
Looking at the few people in front of him… especially at the back of the girl with long hair that reached her waist, Yang Jun felt emotional.
He thought to himself that it was a good thing that he wasn’t the kind of person who liked women. Otherwise, as the most good-looking among these girls, he would definitely have designs on Yan Jinyu and he would probably be finished very quickly.
In the next few days, Mo Qian would probably follow them. On the account that he had pursued Mo Qian before and was their classmate, he sincerely prayed that Mo Qian wouldn’t go look for trouble with Yan Jinyu. Otherwise…
Ha ha.
He couldn’t help her then.
