Chapter 49 - Good Times

Under the big tree, there was a large blue-and-red-checkered picnic cloth. The servants were very careful to put a waterproof mat under it, as well as a few layers of soft cushions to ensure that the madam and her friends could enjoy this time.

Although it was a picnic at home, Ming Liuyi still prepared a sumptuous meal. The picnic basket was filled with beautiful tableware and had a small tent for decoration. Balloons and flowers were placed around it. There was also a sumptuous spread laid out, completing the atmosphere.

Seeing this, You Lingling gave up on walking around the yard and sat on the mat, waiting for Ming Liuyi to return. When she saw Ming Liuyi pushing Yao Zizhou over from a distance, You Lingling shouted, “Liuyi, come here quickly. I can’t wait!”

Ming Liuyi increased her speed without realizing it, not wanting to make You Lingling wait too long. You Lingling saw that Yao Zizhou was wearing a sun hat on his head and was immediately surprised. This seemed too stuffy, so You Lingling said, “You said you were going to bring him out to enjoy the breeze and sunshine. Why are you covering him up so much? You can’t be so petty. You don’t want me to see what your husband looks like?”

Ming Liuyi immediately felt guilty. She was indeed afraid that You Lingling would see Yao Zizhou’s face. After all, she did not know if Yao Zizhou was willing to let others see him. What if he got angry?

Ming Liuyi explained, “No, I’m afraid his skin is sensitive, and he might get sunburned. It’s better this way,”

You Lingling saw Ming Liuyi’s expression and had already guessed that she did not want others to see Yao Zizhou’s face. Since Ming Liuyi said so, there was nothing she could do.

You Lingling snorted and said lightly, “You’re no fun~”

Ming Liuyi did not pay this any mind. She pushed Yao Zizhou onto the picnic mat and sat down beside You Lingling.

You Lingling immediately took out her phone and said to Ming Liuyi with excitement, “This is our date. Let’s take a photo together.”

Ming Liuyi mimicked You Lingling’s pose and posed in front of the camera. The two of them smiled like flowers in bloom. At that moment, Xiao Fan walked to them from afar. She seemed very anxious and panted as she spoke to Ming Liuyi, “Madam, your teacher is here. He’s waiting for you in the living room.”

Ming Liuyi did not expect He Yanfeng to come so early, but fortunately, they had not started eating yet, so she could invite He Yanfeng over to have lunch together. You Lingling also knew him, so there was not any awkwardness.

Ming Liuyi immediately said, “Then ask Mr. He to come here and eat with us. Lingling knows him too.”

Xiao Fan nodded, then turned and left. Not long after that, He Yanfeng walked out to them. Despite the hot weather, his expression remained cold. When she spotted him, You Lingling waved, signaling He Yanfeng to come over quickly.

He Yanfeng was a little cold and aloof, but he could not resist You Lingling’s warm greeting. He unconsciously quickened his pace and even started to jog. He Yanfeng noticed his own movements and felt that it was a little unbelievable. It had been a long time since he had been greeted so warmly by someone.

He ran over to the two of them and sat down. As soon as he did that, You Lingling immediately handed him a bottle of slightly cold soda. Looking at He Yanfeng, she spoke enthusiastically, “Long time no see, but you’re still so handsome.”

Ming Liuyi sat on the side, telling He Yanfeng not to be so reserved and to eat and drink as he pleased. Then, she took out a box specially prepared for Yao Zizhou and Ju Feng, preparing to give them some small snacks that only vegetative people could eat. You Lingling took the other box and opened it.

“Wow, this looks delicious!”

You Lingling could not help but try it herself. It was cold and had a unique taste. The ones sold outside could not compare to this. You Lingling’s smile was so large that it reached her eyes.

“This is too delicious! I want to eat some after Ju Feng.”

Ming Liuyi smiled. You Lingling was really a child, actually fighting with Ju Feng for food. These were specially prepared for Yao Zizhou and Ju Feng, and of course, for everyone else.

Ming Liuyi smiled and said, “These were specially prepared for them. There’s something for us to eat over there. There’s a lot of fruit inside. Don’t fight with them over this snack. When we get back, we’ll eat a lot of this fruit. It’s more delicious than this.”
