Chapter 1059: Chapter 1059: Time to Sell and Collect the Money!
"Such a beautiful sentiment," Tang Ling laughed, "to say, ’Where flowers bloom, so too shall butterflies come.’ I’m sorry for imposing on Miss Shen for so long. I hope to treat you to coffee sometime, if you’d honor me with your presence."
"It would be my pleasure."
Shen Mianmian smiled slightly and said goodbye to Tang Ling.
As soon as she got home, Shen Mianmian received a call from Xiaocui, who had set her wedding date with Dajun for the twenty-sixth of the twelfth lunar month. She wanted to know if Shen Mianmian had time to come back for it.
Without hesitation, Shen Mianmian replied, "Of course I’ll come back for your wedding. The drama I’m working on should wrap up around the twentieth of the twelfth lunar month. I’m only the second female lead, so there isn’t much filming left for me. If Brother He has the time, we’ll head back together."
Hearing this, Xiaocui was very happy. She remembered something and added, "Mianmian, the last time I went back, I ran into Shen Jianhua. He said his watermelons were big and round this year and asked if I wanted any. I felt a bit sorry for him, so I bought some to sell in my shop."
Thinking it over, Shen Mianmian said, "From now on, pay him the selling price for his watermelons!"
It was as if she were helping him sell his watermelons.
Xiaocui instantly understood Shen Mianmian’s intent and thought to herself that Shen Mianmian still had a kind heart. She was finding other ways to support Shen Jianhua.
If Shen Jianhua had not believed Zhou Lanfang’s words back then and had treated Shen Mianmian well, he would probably be the most prosperous person in the village by now.
Alas, it was too late for such regrets.
After chatting for a while, they hung up. Thinking of Shen Jianhua, Shen Mianmian took a deep breath. She didn’t want to dwell on the past or forgive completely, but she was willing to offer some help.
That evening, after Shen Mianmian had cooked dinner, He Nan came home. The two of them acted like a newly married couple—she cooked, he cleaned up the kitchen, and then they took a bath and rested together.
After another intimate moment, He Nan held her and said, "I have to travel abroad for about half a month. Make sure you lock the doors and windows at night, and don’t go out alone."
Shen Mianmian was a bit reluctant to part with him, but she understood that with Lanyue expanding, it was normal for He Nan to be busy. She nodded, hugged his waist, and said, "I hear there are many beautiful girls abroad. Don’t let them whisk you away."
He Nan chuckled softly, and they were intertwined once more until Shen Mianmian was too tired to continue. Only then did He Nan let her rest. She slept soundly and sweetly through the night.
When she woke up the next day, He Nan had already left.
Shen Mianmian tried calling him, but just as she did, He Nan was about to board the plane and turned off his phone. So, she lay back down in bed and fell asleep again for a while.
In the evening, Yang Xiaoxi returned from the film set, walked through the door, and hugged Shen Mianmian, crying, "Mianmian, I’ve missed you so much."
Shen Mianmian laughed at her over-the-top acting. Every time Yang Xiaoxi came back from filming, even if it was only for two days, the first thing she would say was this.
Cheng Feiyang brought back some cold dishes from outside, and the three of them had a casual meal together in the courtyard. While eating, Yang Xiaoxi suddenly received a phone call from Principal Yang.
The more Yang Xiaoxi listened, the more frustrated she became; after exchanging a few words, she hung up, fuming, and sat down on the stone bench.
"What’s the matter?" Shen Mianmian asked.
In frustration, Yang Xiaoxi said, "My dad told me my cousin has been nagging to come here, but he refused. As a result, my aunt and cousin stayed at our house for a week, just not willing to leave and insisting on coming over. Now, she’s gone and bought a train ticket and will arrive tomorrow morning."
Yang Xiaoxi had acted in a film and sent money back home, and all her relatives knew about it. They thought money was easy to earn in Beijing, so they wanted Yang Xiaoxi to take her cousin Zhu Yun under her wing.
