Phi-Fic Chapter 145 Biking to the Orchard
Chapter 145 Biking to the Orchard
The next morning, Mother Xia got up early and made handmade pancakes for everyone as breakfast. After breakfast, Xia Qingcen went to attend a high school reunion. It was summer vacation and everyone was back.
Xia Qingqian took Ji Fengfan to the orchard on the mountain above her home. Worried that he would be too tired to walk, Xia's father got them an electric car. Ji Fengfan had never ridden one before, so Xia Qingqian took him with her and set off.
Although they were going to the mountain, the road had actually been repaired and the mountain was not that high. It was Ji Fengfan's first time riding an electric car, and it was Xia Qingqian who rode it. The feeling was very fresh. He put his arms around her waist from behind, looking at her back, with an optimistic smile on his face.
Along the way, there was a cool breeze blowing in our face, which was very comfortable.
The orchard was not far away, and two people could get there by bike in just over ten minutes.
There was a small hut in the orchard, which was very clean and it was obvious that someone cleaned it regularly. There were chairs and some fruit baskets inside. Xia Qingqian put the electric car aside and pulled Ji Fengfan into the hut.
It is called a cottage, but in fact it is just a small house made of wood. Light leaks in from all sides. It looks like a small wooden cabin deep in the forest in a fairy tale, full of mystery and childlike fun.
Xia Qingqian ran to pick two cantaloupes, washed them, handed one to Ji Fengfan, took one for herself, and started eating.
He took a bite and exclaimed, "It's so sweet." Then he handed the melon to Ji Fengfan's mouth, "Try mine, it's super sweet."
Ji Fengfan took a bite and nodded gently, looking directly at Xia Qingqian with a pair of smiling eyes, "Mm, very sweet."
Xia Qingqian was stunned for a moment, and felt that he was not talking about melons...
After eating the cantaloupe, Xia Qingqian took Ji Fengfan for a walk, introduced the vegetables and fruits grown by Xia’s father, and finally picked a basket of various fruits before going back.
As soon as the two returned home, Xia Qingqian received a call from Qin Qing, asking her if she was in the film and television city and inviting her to have lunch together.
"Qingqing, I'm sorry. I can't have lunch with you. I'm not in Jiangcheng." Xia Qingqian said apologetically.
"Not in Jiangcheng? Out filming?" Qin Qing asked.
"No, I went back to my hometown." While talking on the phone, Xia Qingqian directed Ji Fengfan to take the fruits they picked to the pool to wash them. Ji Fengfan rolled up his sleeves, stood by the pool, and washed them one by one very carefully.
"Back to your hometown? When did you go back? What about my fourth brother? He probably went back with you..." Qin Qing said with some excitement, his voice getting louder.
"Yeah." Xia Qingqian glanced at someone who was washing fruit in her yard and responded with a smile.
"Oh my God, you guys are so fast. They're meeting the parents already. Is it possible that good things are about to happen and they're going to give out wedding candies?" Qin Qing was very happy.
"No, I came back to see my parents, and brought him back to recuperate. The air in the countryside is better." Xia Qingqian said as she subconsciously looked towards Ji Fengfan. He seemed to feel her gaze, and suddenly turned around, smiled at her lightly, and turned back.
"Where is your hometown? I want to go there too..." Qin Qing was taking a rest for the next few days. Hearing that Ji Fengfan and Xia Qingqian were there, he felt like playing again.
"Okay, my home is in Yunhe City, not far from Jiangcheng. You can either call a car or drive over. It might be a bit dangerous to drive on the highway." Xia Qingqian knew that Qin Qing had just picked up the car, so she suggested that she take a taxi over.
"Okay, okay. I'll tell you when I set the time." Qin Qing hung up the phone happily.
When she turned around, she saw Xiao Junhan standing behind her, which scared her.
"Why are you standing behind someone and listening to a phone call?" Qin Qing asked, holding the phone in one hand and the other on his waist.
Xiao Junhan touched his nose innocently, "I just walked over here, okay."
"Hmph." Qin Qing snorted at him, then walked past him and prepared to go out for dinner. After eating boxed lunches for a week, he needed to improve his food occasionally.
"Where are you going?" Xiao Junhan asked, holding her hand.
"Of course we're going to eat. Why don't you want to eat?" Qin Qing said naturally.
"If you want to eat, let's eat together." Xiao Junhan took her hand and walked forward.
Before Qin Qing could react, she was dragged into a Japanese restaurant in a film and television city. Qin Qing had eaten at this restaurant once before. When Wan'er came to see her, she paid a heavy price to treat Wan'er to a meal.
There is nothing wrong with this store except that it is expensive.
It’s really delicious, and really expensive.
Qin Qing was pulled by Xiao Junhan to sit in a high-end booth. After the menu was handed to her, she looked up at the person in front of her, as if she had just remembered, and said, "You pay."
Xiao Junhan was pouring lemonade for her, and smiled softly, "When have you ever paid for a meal with me?"
Qin Qing suddenly became angry and said, "What do you mean, I haven't invited you to dinner yet?"
"How did you know what I meant? I meant, of course I'll pay, okay, miss?" Xiao Junhan said good-naturedly, gently pushing the poured lemonade over.
"That's more like it." Qin Qing raised her head proudly and started ordering food.
Xiao Junhan looked at her with a soft light in his eyes. He just heard her calling and seemed to be going out to play. He took a sip of lemonade, moved his lips, and asked, "Are you on vacation?"
"Yeah, I've been working for half a month straight, and I can finally take a few days off." Qin Qing responded, still flipping through the menu with his head down. He didn't plan to order the same dishes he had eaten with Wan'er last time. He wanted to order some things he had never eaten before, after all, they were so expensive.
"Want to go out and play?" Xiao Junhan continued to ask.
Qin Qing nodded, "Well, Qianqian said she and Fourth Brother are in her hometown, I plan to go find them." Qin Qing said. Although she and Xiao Junhan started to argue as soon as they met, they grew up together after all, and they still have enough trust in each other. They would not lie to each other on purpose, and they would just say whatever they wanted.
Xiao Junhan calmly picked up the cup and took a sip of lemonade, then took out his mobile phone and quickly pressed a few times on the screen, as if he was sending a message.
After Qin Qing ordered the food, he looked up and handed the menu to Xiao Junhan, saying, "See if there is anything else you want to eat, add it."
"No need, just order." Xiao Junhan didn't take the menu.
"Okay, I ordered quite a bit anyway, it should be enough for the two of us."
"Don't save money for me." Xiao Junhan said with a smile.
"I'm trying to save food and not waste it, not to save money for you." Qin Qing called the waiter and handed over the menu.
Xiao Junhan looked at her and smiled without saying anything.
Anyway, whatever the eldest lady says is right.
