Chapter 416 - 416: Sweet Boyfriend
Hearing the girl’s threatening voice, Ming Zhiyan’s heart melted. He looked at the girl’s lively little face and said seriously, “I definitely will.”
Then, he said nervously, “Then you… Can you also not fall in love with someone else…”
Jian Qingqing patted his arm and said, “As long as you don’t change your mind.”
Having received the promise, Ming Zhiyan only felt a huge surprise surge up in his heart. He said excitedly, “I definitely won’t!”
“Yes,” Jian Qingqing smiled and hugged him. She immediately let go and said, “Alright, you should really go back. Hurry up, I’ll watch you go back.” Although he was reluctant, he still turned back to leave.
After watching him leave, Jian Qingqing entered the Imperial Manor.
Although only the first season of seeds had been planted, they were indeed different.
In the same environment and conditions, some paddies were taller and had plump grains while some were shorter and smaller. There were also differences in other details.
Hybrid grain was a long-term plan, not something that could be completed overnight. It might take more than ten years or decades to make some achievements, or it might take the efforts of several generations, so it could not be rushed.
Jian Qingqing had never thought that she could produce results so quickly. In her lifetime, it was already very good to see a yield of more than 500 catties per acre.
Jian Qingqing had been busy in the Imperial Manor the entire morning, recording all kinds of data. She was about to go eat when she saw Ming Zhiyan come over on his horse.
More importantly, he was holding a lunchbox in his hand. This scene was funny no matter how one looked at it.
Jian Qingqing helplessly asked, “Why are you here again? Didn’t I tell you to rest well?”
Ming Zhiyan hummed in agreement and said, “I went to sleep. After I woke up,
I went to Yunxiang Pavilion to buy you lunch.”
Jian Qingqing looked at the sky and combined with the time when the man went back, she felt that he had not slept for more than two hours.
However, she could not say anything. After all, men in love were very clingy.
She took him to the yard where she usually rested and took out the food inside. “You haven’t eaten, have you? Let’s eat together.”
It was not easy to buy food from Yunxiang Pavilion. The food made by the head chef was even better. Usually, today’s order would be booked the day before, and it was almost impossible to buy it on the same day. Jian Qingqing had only been there twice, and every time, it was full.
“How did you manage to buy things from Yunxiang Pavilion?” she asked curiously. He even bought so many of them, and most importantly, there was her favorite fried shrimp.
Ming Zhiyan replied obediently, “I saved the life of Yunxiang Pavilion’s head chef.”
Jian Qingqing looked at him in surprise and gave him a thumbs-up. “My boyfriend is amazing!’
Ming Zhiyan’s ears turned red again. Although he felt that this matter was nothing to him, he always felt a little shy to be praised by the girl.
Seeing that the girl had already started eating, he quickly took a deep-fried shrimp and peeled it for her.
Jian Qingqing said, “Hurry up and eat.”
Ming Zhiyan did not listen to her. He still peeled the shell for her. When she was almost done eating, he picked up his own and ate two bowls.
After the meal, Jian Qingqing was afraid that he would waste a lot of sleep time going back and forth, so she simply brought him to the guest room in her small courtyard and said, “Don’t go back. Take a nap here and we’ll go back together in the afternoon. I want to take an afternoon nap next door..”
