Chapter 64: Why Can’t I Kiss Her?
Zhang Can’er glanced at her, then at the people around her, not caring at all. She hugged Wan Feng and kissed her directly. She was her own girlfriend, why couldn’t she kiss her? Hmph!
But Wan Feng, on the other hand, was blushing furiously. She lowered her head, not daring to lift it at all.
“Sister Feng, I’ve already kissed you. Why don’t you kiss me again? Okay?” Zhang Can’er softened her voice and said coquettishly in Wan Feng’s ear.
Wan Feng felt as if her whole body was on fire. She closed her eyes and said with some helplessness, “Can’er… we’re outside.”
“What’s wrong with being outside? I don’t care. I’m very uneasy right now. I want your kiss. If you don’t give it to me, I’ll cry.”
With that, the corners of her eyes began to turn red.
Wan Feng had no choice. As if she had thrown all caution to the wind, she kissed Zhang Can’er on the lips.
Their lips touched, and the two of them began a passionate, deep kiss.
The four of them had a headache. They hadn’t expected Zhang Can’er to be like this in a relationship. They had thought she would be the shy one, but it turned out to be Wan Feng. This contrast made them a little incredulous.
After the kiss, Zhang Can’er leaned against Wan Feng’s embrace, squinting her eyes in comfort, like a kitten that had eaten its fill, her face full of satisfaction.
But Wan Feng didn’t dare to look at her anymore. She was so shy that she wanted to find a hole to hide in. She now regretted why she had agreed to Zhang Can’er.
Xiao Feng had already let the people above withdraw. The few of them also consciously stood a little further away.
But the other three were also quite busy, busy comforting Xiao Hou.
When Xiao Hou saw Zhang Can’er acting cute and asking for a kiss from Wan Feng, his tears couldn’t stop. He was already crying so hard he could barely breathe. He also knew that Zhang Can’er could never belong to him, but he just couldn’t help it.
“Alright, you’re a grown man. What does it look like to cry like this?” Xiao Feng said while handing him a tissue.
“I… I can’t help it. Sister Can’er… this… is too hurtful. Wuwuwu…”
“Alas… cry. After this cry, you’ll be able to move on,” Xiao An patted his shoulder and said gently.
Xiao Li nodded. Just as she was about to speak, she heard a cold and familiar voice. “You’re all here. I thought you had all left.”
Shen Fanmeng’s first glance was at Xiao Li. Looking at her distant face, her heart couldn’t help but ache a little. But on the surface, she still acted as if nothing was wrong and greeted the others.
“There’s still some finishing work. I’ll leave after I’m done. Is Captain Shen here to…?” Xiao Feng was indeed a little puzzled. Logically speaking, Shen Fanmeng wouldn’t come over. But… she turned to look at Xiao Li, and her heart understood.
“Then A’An and I will take Xiao Hou and leave first. Goodbye, Captain Shen,” Xiao Feng was very self-aware. She took the person and quickly left.
When she passed by Zhang Can’er, she just said hello.
But Zhang Can’er had no time to care about her now. She was busy coaxing the angry Wan Feng.
Seeing that everyone had left, Xiao Li rolled her eyes. “Why are you walking so fast? Are you in a hurry to be reincarnated?”
“Yu’er…”
Xiao Li frowned and looked at Shen Fanmeng with some impatience. “City Lord Shen, we’ve already broken up. Please don’t call me so intimately. Besides, my surname is not Yu.”
“You know that’s fake. Stop messing around, okay? I’ll agree to whatever you say. I haven’t closed my eyes for two days. I can’t sleep without you. Just take pity on me, okay?”
Xiao Li looked at the dark circles under Shen Fanmeng’s eyes, her brow furrowed even more, and her expression became even more impatient.
Without saying a word, she turned and left.
Shen Fanmeng hurriedly followed. At this moment, her eyes were only on Xiao Li. She didn’t even notice Zhang Can’er and Wan Feng.
And Xiao Li didn’t want to disturb Zhang Can’er and Wan Feng, so she didn’t say hello.
Shen Fanmeng quickly walked to Xiao Li’s side, looked at her face, and took her hand. Not meeting any resistance, Shen Fanmeng breathed a sigh of relief.
When they reached the City Lord’s Mansion, Xiao Li walked straight in, and the soldiers at the door also called out “City Lord’s wife” and “City Lord.”
She hadn’t been here for two days, but Xiao Li didn’t feel that it was unfamiliar. She led the person to the bedroom and then stopped.
She turned to look at Shen Fanmeng, still a little awkward, but her tone was not as harsh as before.
“Take a bath first, then go to sleep obediently. I’ll be by your side.”
“Aren’t you going to sleep with me?” Shen Fanmeng pleaded.
“Go take your bath!”
…
When Zhang Can’er and Wan Feng returned to the thatched cottage, they saw Zhang Tu, who seemed to be waiting for them.
After a few pleasantries, Zhang Tu got to the point. “It’s like this. Now that your identities have been revealed, and Miss Zhang has a farming skill, City Lord Shen and I have discussed having you two take charge of the granary and the food warehouse. The condition is that there must be a harvest every half a month. Do you think that’s possible?”
Zhang Can’er and Wan Feng exchanged a look, both a little surprised, and at the same time, a little worried.
Zhang Tu seemed to see their hesitation. “Don’t worry, there’s room for discussion.”
Zhang Can’er nodded, took Wan Feng into the living room, made a cup of tea, and then looked at Zhang Tu. “Please sit down and have some tea first.”
Zhang Tu replied with an “okay” and sat down to drink a cup of tea.
“Managing the granary and food is a big deal. Sister Feng and I have no experience. We’re afraid we’ll mess things up.”
Zhang Tu put down her teacup and waved her hand. “You don’t need to worry too much about this. The people below will operate on their own. If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can also ask Uncle Zhou. He was in charge of this place before.”
Zhang Can’er frowned. “Then we can’t accept it even more. Uncle Zhou has been so good to us before. How can we take his job away?”
“Do you think that old man Zhou Zhong wants to be in charge? He can’t wait to give this job away. He’s mentioned it several times before, but I’ve never agreed. The warehouse is still under his management. The granary and the food warehouse will be under your management.”
“But…”
“Alright, stop arguing. This matter is settled. Let’s talk about managing the farmland and vegetable fields,” Zhang Tu said as she opened the file and took out a pen.
“Sister Tu, I still think we’re not up to the task. You should find someone else,” Zhang Can’er refused.
“Hmm… but your younger sister has already signed the contract. Here, take a look. If once every half a month is not possible for those farmlands and vegetable fields, then let’s make it once a month. Don’t worry, those survivors will have things to do. You don’t need to worry about them. And you just need to use some skills every day to make the rice and vegetables grow faster.”
Zhang Can’er took the contract and looked it over. She found that it was all Xiao Feng’s name. She suddenly had a headache. “So, you mean Xiao Feng has pushed all these things to me to manage?”
“Hmm… that’s about what it means. She said she’s usually very busy and doesn’t have time to manage these things, so she transferred them to you. She also said that you would definitely agree,” Zhang Tu said with a smile.
This move of acting first and reporting later gave Zhang Can’er a big headache. She really wanted to question Xiao Feng why she had to disrupt her leisurely days.
But there was no way. Xiao Feng was indeed her younger sister. She had to lead troops, so she definitely couldn’t be bothered. And any discerning person could see that she was doing it for her. There was no way. Zhang Can’er could only accept her ‘good intentions’.
