“Grandpa, please forgive me. It really disappeared, and there is no way to find it...” The tall guy, Mu Tiannan, the new Agency Business Executive (ABE) of the Yifeng Seed Company, is bowing to the phone as if the person on the other side of the phone can see his expression.
He makes the phone call in the shop. That plump saleslady, who lost the ginseng seed, sees this and feels more anxious.
Alas, Manager Mu is really a nice person. He takes responsibility for an employee like her. That plump saleslady admires Mu Tiannan in her heart while worrying that the company might punish her for her fault. She talks to herself inside her head again and again, “Manager Mu is good looking with a beautiful heart. He is really a great person...”
Mu Tiannan, who doesn’t know that he has been regarded as a good person, has no time to care about the saleslady’s thought. He is so troubled by the old man on the other side of the phone.
“We really lost it. I can’t hand it over
Lin Luoran drives her new car nervously and goes shopping with Baojia. Baojia criticizes her old Nokia as worthless, and her black trench coat extremely unfashionable…In short, all the stuff of Lin Luoran from head to toe can’t satisfy Baojia’s taste.Lin Luoran knows Baojia. All the seeming “dislike,” in fact, is her way to celebrate for her.Baojia takes her to buy shoes and clothes. A thick winter coat, silver stilettos, and black rivet boots. All these were luxuries that Lin Luoran used to admire through the glass of the commuter bus when she was with Li Anping and worked hard consistently for his tuition fees and living costs. Today, she goes on a shopping spree and gets satisfied.That may seem tacky to some people, but Lin Luoran begins to understand the truth that if a woman doesn’t love herself, don’t expect a man to save her!In the afternoon, Lin Luoran, worrying about the space, doesn’t accept Baojia’s invitation and insists on driving back to her
It is Aunt Li, Lin Luoran’s next-door neighbor in hometown, who calls her. She gets along well with Lin Luoran’s family and does it out of kindness, but what she says almost frightens Lin Luoran to death.“Slow down, auntie, what’s wrong with my parents? Does my father get a high blood pressure again or my mother falls ill…” The first thing that occurs to Lin Luoran is her parents have medical emergencies because that is the worst matter in her mind.Aunt Li feels confused about her question through the phone. She gets blank and then replies, “No, it’s not like that. Your parents are in good health!”Lin Luoran still feels scared and says, “Auntie, you also almost scared me to death. As long as they are fine, nothing else is urgent. Don’t worry. Tell me slowly!”“Li Anping’s mother has been cursing all afternoon in front of your house. Don’t you think it is a big deal...” Although Aunt Li is a countrywoman, she has a loud voice. Al
Lin Luoran feels terribly upset. Li Anping’s mother falsely accuses her as expected and makes up a lot of rumors to malign her, even getting her mom filled with anxiety.“Mom, I’m raised by you. Do you think I would go astray? Why do you believe outsiders but not your own daughter? I make money on my own. Absolutely legally. I’ll talk to you over dinner. Is it ok?”Mrs. Lin seems worried. Lin Luoran does not get angry. She explains it and makes a promise.Mrs. Lin still wants to say more, but Mr. Lin, after moving the last pack of beef, says impatiently, “Our daughter has been driving for a long time to come back. She’s tired. Let’s talk after dinner!”Mr. Lin is the head of the family, so Mrs. Lin stops. The three go to cook in the kitchen together. Mrs. Lin cuts vegetables, Mr. Lin cooks, and Luoran makes a fire, as usual.Mr. Lin is different from other men in rural areas. He never thinks that wives must do all the
“Who says I’m breaking off the engagement?”Lin Luoran asks in reply, and Mrs. Li can’t respond at once.The villagers are talking about them. They think Lin’s daughter finds another man but still doesn’t let go of Li’s son. It’s so shameless. Mr. Lin is irritated and wants to look for a stick to beat those yentas while Mrs. Lin just worriedly looks at her daughter.Lin Luoran combs her long hair down to her chest. She stands here calmly, but the bachelors in the village stare at her straight, drooling over this beautiful girl. Mrs. Li doesn’t understand why Lin Luoran still wants this engagement in such a situation. She is not the daughter of a wealthy, but her family, after all, has promised the marriage. Anping says the girl has got a lot of money, so her request can be considered.At least use up all money and then dump her. Mrs. Li decides instantly. At the same time, she is deeply proud of her son’s charm!
These are the words used by the Li family to humiliate Lin Luoran earlier on. Lin Luoran now uses them to fight back.The Li’s eldest daughter carries a shoulder pole and trying to hit Lin Luoran with it—Luoran’s father stands too far to pull her away. Li Weiguo didn’t expect that Li Anping’s sister would be so impetuous that she dares to hit Luoran when he is still considering.It’s too late for anybody to pull her back, the eyes of Li Anping’s sister get sharp, and she believes Lin Luoran is about to fall under her pole. After all, she has envied this beautiful face for a long time—Lin Luoran moves a bit. Everyone thinks she will definitely take the hit and cannot bear to see that. To their surprise, Lin Luoran didn’t run away but stands still. The seemingly weak and delicate girl has snatched the pole from Li’s hands, leaving her stamping and covering her wrist with pain.Lin’s parents quickly come to their daughter and check i
It is raining in the middle of the night. When Luoran gets up, She thinks of the slippery road and hesitates about her father’s plan:“Dad, do you really have to collect herbs on the mountain? The road is still wet. I can totally afford to support you. Why do you work so hard?”Her mother babbles, “You know your father. How can he go back on what he has promised already?”Lin Luoran can do nothing to her stubborn father. Last night after dinner, Lin Luoran talked about her present situation roughly. The space is too weird, and she worried that her mother would reveal some clues when chatting with villagers, so she just told them that she gets some good opportunities, and the raw gemstones offer some fortune.They’ve only heard about jade, let alone gambles on stone. They couldn’t understand it totally. After a lengthy explanation, they finally believed that Lin Luoran has made some money now. She also wants to tell them that she ha
Lin Luoran looks around on the hilltop with fixed attention and tries to find out the source of the aroma, but she fails.She has never smelt such kind of fragrance, which is a fusion of fruits, flowers, and herb. The scent is so attractive that it has several notes that create an accord. Lin makes a choice within a few minutes between going downhill and seeking the source of the fragrance.Lingering here for a while may not delay my arriving at the spot if I hurry up when I descend later, Lin thinks. Then she begins to hunt for the scent around the hilltops.The fragrance of the flower is vague and indistinct due to the blowing of wind so that it is difficult to fix its position. Therefore, Lin fails to find out the source within such a small place on the top.Lin just instead tries to feel it with her heart by closing her eyes.The sweet fragrance circles around her nose and then flies away. Lin tries her best to hun
It is only about four or five o’clock in the afternoon when they get home.The atmosphere is very harmonious, where Aunt Li and Uncle Li are both in the house talking and laughing with Lin’s mother. Mom stares blankly at her daughter. She went to the town to withdraw some money but had to go to the counter, for she doesn’t know how to use the ATM. Having noticed her card, the branch manager came and took her to a larger and quieter counter.Mrs. Lin had no idea what a “Golden cardholder” is, and she withdrew one hundred thousand yuan under the gentle service of the teller. Mrs. Lin held the kraft paper bag firmly and asked the balance in the card carefully.The teller smiled and told her the amount.Mom Lin was still dizzy after she got out of the bank. She was blurred about the first number but remembered it was followed by six “0”! Oh dear! My daughter is wealthier than the millionaires in the village?Mrs. Lin forced herself to calm down, grips the m
