This stepmother is a bit crazy

"Go ahead and find a bunk to settle down in."

The village chief took Zhao Shijiang in, and his bunk happened to be next to Zong Shaocheng and the others.

"Zhao Shijiang, you are still very good. The village chief said that no one should be over 40 years old. You are 53 or four years old, and you can still come."

A villager lay on the upper bunk and said with a smile.

"It's Xiaoran who has a good heart."

Zhao Shijiang grinned, and his cheerful face became more wrinkled.

If he can make money, the four people in the family will not go hungry.

"Speaking of which, it's all thanks to our village chief. When she went to the countryside, he didn't dislike her young age and kept her."

Everyone chatted with each other.

Jiang Linran returned to the office and turned down the calendar. It was less than a month before the New Year. He changed his mind and planned to discuss with Zheng Hao to give them half a month's salary before the New Year and let them send it back.

The village chief and his wife, as well as Luo Yunfeng and others, took the initiative to stay here and help take care of it.

The sunset is westward.

Jiang Linran packed his things, put on his bag, and got on his bicycle, his mind still spinning.

Thinking about starting construction at the construction site and the sales department, we must also start work.

For her, these are all new areas that she has never set foot on before. She crosses the river by stepping on stones and learns by doing.

They also have to go to the south in person to replenish some fresh goods. After all, the problem of funds is a big deal. Once there is a problem with this, their house may not be built.

Riding slowly all the way.

When we returned to Gardenia Lane, it was already dusk, and the street lamps illuminated the road warmly.

Jiang Linran, who was still thinking about things, suddenly stopped and stamped his foot on the ground.

He raised his chin slightly and looked at the shadow walking towards him.

In an instant, the shadow pressed over and enveloped her in his figure.

The fresh and cold smell of grass and trees on his body hit his face.

She subconsciously drew her neck back and rolled her eyes.
"Xiaoran. Why so late?"

The cool voice was filled with deep concern.

"When will I come back? Does it matter to you?"

Jiang Linran raised his foot and stepped on the pedal.

Zhou Zekai pressed the handlebar with one hand, and his eyes filled with deep affection fell on her face with hot eyes.

"Let's talk, Xiaoran. I promise that after this conversation, I will never appear in front of you without your permission."

You can't do it casually, just find reasons and excuses.

Jiang Linran's mind hasn't completely turned around yet.

In an instant, just that instant, she looked into his bright and deep eyes and nodded slowly.

The next moment, I caught a glimpse of the smile on his lips.

Sighing secretly, you are crazy. You can just ignore him. Why should you agree to talk to him? There is nothing to talk about.

After receiving the consent, Zhou Zekai, regardless of what she was thinking at the moment, stretched out his hand to hold the handlebar: "Go to the back."

"what?"

Zhou Zekai patted the back seat of the car.

"No, it's just a few steps away."

His hand brushed past her arm, and Jiang Linran jumped aside.

Zhou Zekai glanced at her, his expression tense in the darkness.

"Come up, I'll take you back."

This man was as stubborn as ever. Jiang Linran sighed, sat on the back seat of the bicycle, and grabbed the seat with his hands.

Zhou Zekai took a long step forward, held the handle of the bike, turned around, and rode outside.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Jiang Linran instinctively reached out to pat his back.

My hand almost touched his coat, but I suddenly felt that this move was inappropriate, so I took it back.

"Let's go get something to eat and talk."

Zhou Zekai spoke decisively and pedaled the bicycle very fast.

Before Jiang Linran could open her mouth again, he had already driven her onto the road.

"It's not far ahead."

Zhou Zekai, who knew she would be pouting in anger, coaxed her softly.

It was difficult to get her to agree to chat with him alone. Zhou Zekai didn't dare to joke with her at this time.

Say soon is soon.

In less than 10 minutes, he drove her into a small alley.

Jiang Linran looked at the narrow alley and chuckled. It was private food again. His method of coaxing girls has remained unchanged for thousands of years, just like his stubbornness.A moment.

Zhou Zekai stopped in front of a courtyard with small stone lions on the left and right sides.

Jiang Linran jumped down.

Follow Zhou Zekai who is pushing the bicycle up the steps, cross the high threshold and enter.

Under the cloister in the courtyard, exquisitely crafted palace lanterns hung. The red light was warm and eye-catching in the black night.

Zhou Zekai put the bicycle aside.

"Let's go."

The two walked into the box.

There are mahogany tables and chairs in the box.

There is a vase on the high table with several red plums in it.

"Is the food ready to be served?"

A girl wearing a blue and white floral jacket came in with a pot of scented tea and asked with a smile.

Zhou Zekai looked at Jiang Linran standing in front of the window and nodded.

The girl put the teapot on the table and left.

"Come sit here and have a cup of hot tea."

Zhou Zekai greeted Jiang Linran.

Jiang Linran withdrew his gaze and sat down opposite him.

With his slender fingers, he held up the small white porcelain gold-rimmed tea cup, which actually gave people a sense of beauty that complemented each other.

He placed the teacup in front of Jiang Linran.

Jiang Linran didn't reach out to pick it up.

"Speak, what are you going to say?"

I saw that she was still carrying her backpack.

Zhou Zekai stood up and came over. He was at a certain distance and reached out to pick up the strap of his backpack: "Put down your bag first. Look who is eating and still carrying a bag."

"Leave me alone?"

Jiang Linran replied stiffly.

But he raised his arm and followed his strength to release his strength.

Zhou Zekai put the bag aside.

Taking advantage of the situation, he sat down in the empty seat next to her.

Suddenly he put away the relaxed look on his face, and locked his eyes with hers very seriously: "Let's talk after eating. No matter what the outcome is after the discussion, just finish the meal well, okay?"

Jiang Linran remained silent and looked at the table with lowered eyes.

Zhou Zekai's greedy eyes lingered on her face.

Finally got what he wanted, so close to her.

It was clear that my heart was boiling like a volcano, but I didn't dare to show it on my face.

"This fish is delicious."

Zhou Zekai carefully picked out the fish bones and placed the fish meat on the plate in front of her.

Jiang Linran ignored him and went to pick up the shrimps.

Zhou Zekai took the lead and placed the shrimp plate in front of him.

Go wash your hands in the washbasin next to you and come back.

Peel off the shrimp shells slowly.

Seeing it, the plate was quickly filled with shrimp meat.

Jiang Linran finally couldn't help but said: "That's enough."

The shrimp meat is sweet and delicious.

He was talking too much just now, but within a moment, Jiang Linran ate all the shrimp meat on the plate.

It's a pity that Jiang Linran was only focused on eating and didn't see Zhou Zekai's loving and gentle eyes on the side.

Finally, the fruit plate was served.

Jiang Linran took a fork, inserted a piece of cantaloupe, and ate it in small bites.

The sweetness of the fruit dilutes the meaty taste in the mouth.

After eating and drinking enough, I feel refreshed and my mind is clear.

"Go ahead."

She didn't believe he could name a flower.

Under the light, her eyes wandered, her beauty was distant, close at hand but out of reach.
