Happy Little Farmer
Chapter 51 - 51 51 Go Inside for a Moment

51: Chapter 51: Go Inside for a Moment 51: Chapter 51: Go Inside for a Moment Li Jia held her cell phone in her hand, staring at it blankly for a while before finally starting to operate it.

Yang Fan couldn’t see what she was fussing with on her phone, but soon, a message arrived.

“Fanzi, sorry.

I didn’t expect Old Fu to suddenly come back.

The thing we planned has to be postponed.

Or maybe, I won’t borrow the money after all.”

Reading this message, Yang Fan felt supremely frustrated.

Old Fu’s timing was exquisitely dreadful.

If he had been just a day later, Yang Fan would have definitely succeeded with Li Jia, the tall, leggy housewife.

Now, not only had Old Fu returned unexpectedly, but he’d also come back with money, prompting Li Jia to think about reneging on their plan.

Thankfully, Yang Fan had already given her the money, otherwise she might have definitely changed her mind.

“I kind of guessed that, but why the change of heart?” Yang Fan cautiously looked around the courtyard before sending Li Jia a message in return.

“Old Fu was a bit unusual today, he gave me some money.

It should be enough for my treatment,” Li Jia, covering the carelessly exposed parts of her body with her clothes amid the night shadows, texted back to Yang Fan.

Gazing at Li Jia’s irresistibly alluring figure, Yang Fan pondered his words before texting back, “But you can’t just get a single guy’s hopes up and then suddenly back out, can you?”

Seeing the message pop up on her phone, Li Jia pursed her lips and lightly chuckled before replying swiftly, “Then let’s…

continue as we discussed previously, I was just talking off the top of my head.

But still, today is definitely not possible.

You should head back early.”

“It’s a bit disappointing, but it seems I have no choice.

I heard your scream, and guessed that maybe Old Fu had come back.

Didn’t expect Old Fu to be quite something; I could hear everything clearly from outside the yard,” Yang Fan purposefully said.

“What’s so great about him?

He’s just like that,” Li Jia replied.

“Sister-in-law, you’re nearly killing me here.

Just hearing your voice through the wall is almost too much for me to handle.

Is there really no chance for you to come out today?” Yang Fan asked, not giving up hope yet.

That flare of frustration was stuck in his abdomen, neither subsiding nor intensifying, making him actually quite uncomfortable.

Li Jia quickly got dressed, looked out the door, and then took out her cell phone to reply to Yang Fan, “Am I hooking you in already?

Fanzi, your composure isn’t great.

But, I’m afraid there really isn’t any chance today, I have no reason to come out!”

“What if Old Fu falls asleep?

How about that?” Yang Fan, noticing Li Jia’s tone soften slightly, quickly said.

Li Jia hesitated, holding her phone and staring at it for a long time before replying to Yang Fan, “But I’m a bit worried about getting caught…”

“Letting me in for just a bit would be fine, too.

Your voice earlier made me very uncomfortable,” Yang Fan responded immediately.

Seeing Li Jia’s tone clearly softening, he pressed a little harder, maybe this could actually work out.

“What good would just a bit do?

Wouldn’t that just make you feel even worse?

Or are you saying you’re quick, that just a bit will be enough?” Li Jia teased with a laugh before replying to Yang Fan.

“I don’t know how good I am, but it might last longer than just a bit.

However, even just a little would provide some comfort to the agitation I’ve been feeling for so long,” Yang Fan replied.

“Sorry, then I…

I’ll try later.

But you should go home first, and if I can get out, I’ll call you,” Li Jia, standing by the door with a hesitant and conflicted expression, finally replied.

“Okay, I’ll wait for you!” Yang Fan responded briefly and put away his phone.

He didn’t plan on going back right away but decided to wait and see what Li Jia really intended.

Before long, Fu Xuebing sauntered in from the bathroom.

“Time for bed!” He casually called out to Li Jia before heading straight to the room.

Under the light, Li Jia’s expression was conflicted, and she hesitated before saying, “You go ahead and sleep, I need to wash these clothes first, and then take a shower.”

“Leave it for tomorrow.

Why must you stay up late to do it?” Fu Xuebing’s voice came from inside the room.

“You think I’m like you?

It’s still early, so I just got started.

There’s always more to do tomorrow!” Li Jia said.

“Suit yourself.

I’m going to sleep.

I won’t wait for you!” Fu Xuebing shouted.

Li Jia responded faintly, sitting on the small stool next to the mat and rolling up her sleeves to start sorting through the clothes that Fu Xuebing had taken off.

She washed them slowly, occasionally glancing into the room.

She obviously seemed to be deliberately delaying.

Seeing her like this, Yang Fan’s heart leapt with excitement, as if there really was a chance.

About half an hour later, Li Jia started to rinse the clothes a second time, and the faint sound of Fu Xuebing’s snoring could be heard from the room.

The two were engaged in a battle of timing, and Yang Fan, squatting on the wall, also felt a bit of a breakdown.

His legs had gone numb!

He looked around and gently sat on top of the wall, letting his legs dangle.

If Li Jia came out and he couldn’t move due to numb legs, it would be utterly embarrassing.

“Old Fu!”

Li Jia, who was wringing the clothes, suddenly shouted, but did not receive any response from Fu Xuebing.

“Never mind, I’ll do it myself,” Li Jia murmured softly, then quickened her pace and began wringing the clothes energetically.

Her shout was clearly a test to see if Fu Xuebing was truly asleep.

Seeing her like this, Yang Fan felt suddenly reassured.

It seemed he really had a chance tonight.

Li Jia hastened her laundry, seemingly rushing through the process, briefly washing the remaining clothes before scooping them up, wringing them out, and hanging them in the corner of the yard on a clothesline.

After hanging the clothes, Li Jia took something in her hands and examined it closely under the doorway’s light.

Although Yang Fan had never used the item, he recognized at a glance that Li Jia held a bunch of umbrellas.

Without a doubt, they must have been taken from Fu Xuebing’s pockets just now.

Under the light, Li Jia’s expression looked upset, almost furious.

As if venting, she suddenly raised her hand and violently threw those items in the yard.

After hesitating for a moment, she picked up one, quietly clutched it in her hand, and then walked over to turn on the bathroom light before tiptoeing out the door.

Seeing this, Yang Fan quickly climbed down from the wall.

Almost at the same time he came down, a message from Li Jia came through, “Fanzi, are you still there?”

“Yes, in the vegetable garden,” Yang Fan quickly replied.

“Come here, to the door,” Li Jia replied.
