I am chasing a rough man in the 80s
Chapter 599: Loosen up a bit

Chapter 599: Chapter 599: Loosen up a bit

Suizi hardly ever had alone time with Yu Jingting, but now she did.

She and Yu Jingting quit their jobs and handed in their resignation letters, which shook the two units they worked for and even the entire city.

In these times when jobs were lifelong-guaranteed, it was shocking for two people, especially ones in leadership positions, to dare to leap over the wall.

For a while, colleagues from the factory and school came over in large numbers, trying to figure out what could possibly trigger such a move from the couple.

When they came to the Yu family, through Wang Cuihua, everyone found out that the couple had taken university entrance exams and planned to go back to school.

Suizi was always tight-lipped about her personal life. She didn’t tell anyone about her plans to study. She only conveyed it to her direct leaders.

As for Yu Jingting, he didn’t even tell his leaders. Once he got his results, he directly informed his superiors that he was quitting.

He even shocked Shen Liangyin’s father, who initially thought he had misheard.

Yu Jingting, as the Factory Director, was doing quite well. Even Shen Liangyin’s father had to admit that this young man was talented, capable and had connections...

Such a promising person had actually resigned, and everyone knew about Yu Jingting’s background. A man who hadn’t even finished junior high school thinking about attending university? That sounded like a fool’s dream.

But when they arrived at the Yu’s house, they got nothing.

Suizi and Yu Jingting were out for a stroll.

Only Yu Shuisheng, his wife and their child were left at home, all clueless about where Suizi and Yu Jingting had gone.

So a rumor began to circulate quietly.

They said that Mr. and Mrs. Yu Jingting had lost their minds. They had wasted good years of their lives, going on a death wish. There was a strong possibility that they had been bewitched out in the wilderness.

The new Factory Director was yet to arrive. Hearing these false rumors, Shen Liangyin, the acting Factory Director, was the first to stand up. Anyone who dare to gossip about Mr. and Mrs. Yu Jingting would suffer demotion and pay cut. Now that she had power, why couldn’t she handle these foul-mouthed people?

No one dared to gossip about Mr. and Mrs. Suizi anymore, but what they thought in their hearts remained unknown.

Although Shen Liangyin squelched the rumors, she was anxious. From her perspective, Chen Hansui’s move was quite puzzling. She wanted to ask her clearly, to advise her to think carefully and not to joke with her future.

But Suizi seemed to have evaporated from the world.

At this time, Suizi and Yu Jingting were living in their own world.

The two of them brought some money, enough dry food, carried their woks, and roamed around the province with their family’s tractor.

The places were chosen by Suizi and Mr. Yu Ding, based on not only scenic beauty but also the possibility of finding graves with antiques in the hands of the local people.

Whenever the young couple felt hungry, they would light a fire to cook noodles, pick wild vegetables, and sometimes even toss some mushrooms into the pot.

When they were tired, they would set up a makeshift tent in the cart. Yu Jingting was particularly fascinated with life in the wilderness. Among the supplies brought by Suizi, other than food and drink, the most were contraceptive supplies. But they felt they had brought too little only halfway through the trip.

"Are you a human sex machine? Aren’t you tired?" Suizi touched her waist, which seemed to have grown thinner than before they set off.

"I am indeed a bit tired." Yu Jingting grabbed the water bag and gulped down a few mouthfuls. He had not shaved for a few days, and his chin was stubbly. He looked quite worn out.

"???"

"What’s with that look? I am also a human and I get tired."

"Can you restrain yourself a bit?" She was here for a self-driving adventure tour, not to accommodate his wild desires!

"Restrain... That’s impossible. It’s rare for us to come out here. Even if life gets tough, I just have to grit my teeth. I can manage, right?"

He clenched his fist, a determined look on his face. From his words, one might mistake him for an inspiring young man, but the direction of his determination was quite off.

"Ai Ma, why did I board your pirate ship..." Suizi was both annoyed and amused, while also wanting to rub her waist a bit.

"Now that you’re aboard, you can’t get off. Wife, we’re still a bit away from the next village. I see there’s a little stream in the woods. Shall we take a bath? You’re soaked in sweat, and it’s breaking my heart."

The words touch Suizi, her man was so considerate.

Suizi, who had seemingly misplaced her reading comprehension skills after her exams, completely overlooked the key phrase— "we should take a bath". The emphasis was on "we".

By the time she realized she had been duped, it was too late. The creek water, warm from the sun, paled in comparison to his body heat. The small fish in the creek, wishing their fins were longer to cover their eyes, were in a forest that rarely saw humans, but was now being taken advantage of...

After a long while, Yu Jingting, humming a tune, bare-chested, carried Suizi back to the tractor, set up a huge sunshade umbrella he’d nabbed from a beer factory for her to rest under, opened a beer for himself, and cherished this simple life more than anything money could buy.

"Wife, you’re brilliant! How did you come up with such a unique trip?"

"Don’t talk to me, you’re making me angry..." Suizi grumbled under the umbrella.

She was thinking that ever since they got married, they never experienced-world for two. Just in time with the publication of the college entrance examination results, she thought of leaving the child to the elders to have a little fun with him.

Back then, there were no tour groups, no private cars. Luckily they had a tractor at home with sufficient fuel, just perfect for a round trip in the province.

Since they made the trip, they shouldn’t return empty-handed. She asked Mr. Yu Ding for guidance, where they could collect antiques, and followed the target to decide where to rest.

In Suizi’s mind, this would be a world for two full of unknowns and fun. They could play and make money at the same time.

She completely overlooked the salient fact that her chosen man was unashamedly disgusting, doing his business wherever they traveled. This completely ruined Suizi’s interest in appreciating the natural scenery.

"These broken bottles and cans are taking up too much space, not to mention these loose pages of books. What do you collect these things for? They’re all taking up my beer space." Yu Jingting complained

Along the way, Suizi collected some things too. She wasn’t very sure about their value, but she knew they were antiques. The villagers are simple, satisfied with a little money they sold it. What annoyed Yu Jingting most was that she even bought a piglet’s manger from them. It’s like a child’s bathtub, especially heavy and takes up a lot of space.

"These are antiques. I don’t know their value, but I’m sure we can’t go wrong by bringing them back."

Yu Jingting chuckled, "I feel like we’re junk collectors."

Not only did he feel that, but the villagers also thought this young couple driving a tractor seemed like junk collectors. They arrived in the village yesterday and were asked if they wanted toothpaste tubes. Yu Jingting felt utterly humiliated.

"This worn-out, big feed trough, if sold to the recycling station by weight, can sell for 2 yuan, right?" Yu Jingting reached out and knocked on the trough. The sound was quite crisp, and he had no idea what metal it was made of.

"The value of things depends on whether they are needed. To those who do not need old items, this is junk. But for those who need it, it’s a priceless treasure."

Suizi saw Yu Jingting murmuring, but didn’t really throw anything away. She added happily in her heart, he’s her biggest treasure, and no amount of money could make her trade him.
