184: Chapter 184: Sand Gets In 184: Chapter 184: Sand Gets In Seeing Chen Yang at a loss for words, the clever Li Han imdiately understood.
“Oh, when you had wild mushrooms, you sold them to others, and now you think of when there’s a problem?
You sure know how to calculate your moves!” Li Han’s mouth curved slightly upward, fuming at Chen Yang.
Li Han acted like a spoiled girl, causing Chen Yang’s heart to flutter sowhat.
But he didn’t dwell on it, instead quickly smiling and explaining, “No, the greenhouses were just starting out and the yield was very low.
To Lin Tianxia, it would be a drop in the bucket and wouldn’t make a difference, so I didn’t bring any over.”
“Here’s the deal, whatever ingredients Lin Tianxia needs in the future, just send soone to get them, and I will supply them to you first,” Chen Yang said, quickly thinking on his feet to redy the situation.
Li Han snorted lightly, “That’s more like it.”
The two sat in the office for a while, and then Chen Yang suddenly thought of Yang Ruoxi.
So he asked directly, “By the way Li Han, why isn’t Ruoxi with you at the hotel today?
What has she been up to lately?”
Upon ntioning Yang Ruoxi, Li Han suddenly chuckled and said, “Oh her, she’s been really down lately.
You don’t co to the city or send her ssages, and I am too busy with the hotel to take her out, so she’s just been cooped up at ho.”
Yang Ruoxi is the type with a lively and playful nature; staying at ho all the ti must indeed be rather depressing.
“Well, I’m here today, aren’t I?
Send her a ssage and ask if she wants to co over for a bit,” Chen Yang said with a smile.
“Okay, I’ll send her a ssage right now.
I bet, once she hears you’re here, she’ll co running over in no ti.” Li Han said while pulling out her phone and dialing Yang Ruoxi’s number.
No sooner had she dialed than Yang Ruoxi answered quickly.
“What’s up!” Yang Ruoxi asked in a rather irritated tone over the phone.
Hearing Yang Ruoxi’s brusque tone, Chen Yang and Li Han couldn’t help but exchange a smile.
Just by that tone, one could tell how frustrated Yang Ruoxi was feeling.
“What are you up to?
Chen Yang’s here today, and he wanted to see if you would co out and hang out.
Do you have ti?” Li Han said with a laugh.
“No…
What?
Chen Yang’s here?”
Yang Ruoxi was about to say she didn’t have ti, but then she quickly caught on and responded with a question.
Yang Ruoxi’s dazed and cute way of talking was just too funny.
“Yeah, Chen Yang is right here in my office.
If you’re busy, then never mind, he’ll be heading back after lunch,” Li Han said.
“Ah!
He really ca!
I have ti.
I’ll co right now.”
Upon getting confirmation from Li Han, Yang Ruoxi’s tone imdiately beca excited.
She then hurriedly hung up the phone, indicating that she would be right over.
After hanging up, Li Han shook her head with a smile and turned to Chen Yang, “See, I told you she’d be here in a flash once she knew you were here.”
Chen Yang just smiled and took a sip of water, saying nothing.
About ten to twenty minutes later, Li Han’s office door was pushed open by Yang Ruoxi.
Yang Ruoxi entered the room, imdiately scanning the entire office.
Only when she spotted Chen Yang and Li Han sitting at the desk did a smile appear on her face.
“What a rare guest!
What brings you to my sister’s office today?” Yang Ruoxi walked over with a smile while teasingly chiding.
Chen Yang laughed and replied, “I ca over for so business, and thought I’d hang out with you while I’m at it.”
Upon hearing that this was just a side trip, Yang Ruoxi imdiately looked a bit displeased.
“So that’s it.
I thought you ca specially to hang out with sister and .” Yang Ruoxi pouted, sitting unhappily next to Li Han.
Chen Yang wasn’t sure how to explain himself as Yang Ruoxi showed her displeasure.
But Li Han quickly chid in to defend Chen Yang, “Chen Yang’s been busy with the greenhouse lately; he doesn’t have ti to co and hang out often.”
“Weren’t the wild mushrooms from the greenhouse harvested?
What else do you have to be so busy with?” Upon hearing this, Yang Ruoxi imdiately questioned Chen Yang.
Chen Yang smiled as he glanced at Li Han, then replied, “The wild mushrooms were harvested, but the operation is still too small.
I want to expand a little recently, so I’ve been pretty busy.”
“I see.
Well, since you’re so busy, I won’t hold it against you for now and will forgive you temporarily,” Yang Ruoxi nodded and then spoke with proud charm.
Yang Ruoxi’s haughty deanor was amusing.
But Chen Yang went along with it, nodding, “Then thank you very much.”
“Hmph.”
Yang Ruoxi crossed her arms, gave Chen Yang a disdainful glance, and then quickly turned to Li Han.
“Sister, you just ntioned going out to eat.
Where are we heading today?”
Instead of answering, Li Han looked towards Chen Yang.
The intent was clear—see what Chen Yang thought.
But in the county town, Chen Yang was far less familiar with the area than the two sisters were,
so he laughed and shrugged his shoulders, “Why are you all looking at ?
I’m not familiar with the county town.
Where we eat is up to you two.”
“Then, how about we go for fried skewers?
I heard there’s a new fried skewer shop that opened up recently in the southern part of the town, seemingly very delicious,” Yang Ruoxi suddenly said with excitent.
“Fried skewers?
Aren’t those unhygienic?” Li Han said with so concern.
“How could that be?
That fried skewer shop is very legitimate, there definitely won’t be any hygiene issues,” seeing Li Han express doubt, Yang Ruoxi imdiately grabbed Li Han’s arm, cooing and explaining at the sa ti.
After a long explanation, Li Han was still not persuaded.
Seeing that Li Han couldn’t be swayed,
Yang Ruoxi’s gaze shifted and she looked toward Chen Yang, who was sitting not far away.
“Chen Yang, what do you think?
Let’s go for fried skewers?” Yang Ruoxi’s eyes glead with hope that Chen Yang would nod in agreent; it seed she really wanted to go eat those fried skewers.
Seeing this, Chen Yang smiled.
He wasn’t particular about food, so since Yang Ruoxi was so keen on going, he nodded.
“Sure, fried skewers sound good.”
With Chen Yang’s agreent, Yang Ruoxi imdiately felt more confident.
“Sister, look, Chen Yang agrees, so let’s go together?”
Originally, Li Han was sowhat resistant to the idea, but seeing that Chen Yang had nodded, she too, reluctantly nodded her head.
“Alright then, we’ll do as you say, but let’s get sothing straight—you can’t eat too much because it really is unhygienic.”
“Okay!”
Yang Ruoxi agreed excitedly, and then the three of them went to the parking lot and drove to the south of the town.
The fried skewer shop was a new experience for Yang Ruoxi too, so it took them quite a bit of ti to find the place.
But fortunately, in the end, they found the newly opened fried skewer shop.
After finding a spot to park the car, the three of them got out.
From a distance, seeing the packed fried skewer shop, Yang Ruoxi couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.
“Wow, it’s really that popular!”
Chen Yang also noticed the full house and was inwardly impressed; a fried skewer shop being so crowded suggested it must have sothing special.
The three approached and asked the receptionist about seating.
After learning that there was space available, they were led inside by the waiter and took their seats.
The entire fried skewer shop was filled with the scent of fried skewers.
The sll of grease was strong.
But more so than these slls, what was worth noting was that the entire shop’s business was indeed exceptionally bustling.
Practically every table was full.
All kinds of people were present.
While Chen Yang and his companions curiously looked around, the patrons who were already eating there were also curiously sizing up Chen Yang and the Li sisters.
The two sisters were strikingly beautiful with outstanding presence.
It was no wonder they drew attention wherever they went.
However, while people were dazzled by the sisters’ good looks, they also looked at Chen Yang with scornful eyes,
as if Chen Yang dining out with these beauties was sohow not fitting.
The looks from those around him made Chen Yang quite uncomfortable.
But Chen Yang did not show it; instead, he smiled, turned his head towards Yang Ruoxi,
“Ruoxi, I think sothing got in my eye.
Can you take a look for ?” Chen Yang said, tilting his head slightly and bringing his face close to Yang Ruoxi’s.
“Sothing got in your eye?”
Hearing this, Yang Ruoxi imdiately leaned in closer too, carefully examining Chen Yang’s eye, then puckering her cherry lips to blow gently on it.
Their action brought them very close together.
Their cheeks were nearly squished against each other.
