Chapter 308: 104: Defeating Li Xianxian, Gaining Little Fangirls_5
Ni Yan walked up to a vegetable stall, “Aunt Liu, could you please weigh three pounds of bean sprouts for me, and then three pounds of kelp…”
The stall owner, upon looking up and seeing Mo Qishen standing next to Ni Yan, his eyes sparkled, “Yangyang, is this your boyfriend? He’s quite a looker!”
Boyfriend.
Somehow, upon hearing these words, Mo Qishen’s face flushed red, bubbling a pleasant feeling within him.
Ni Yan gave a slight smile, “Aunt Liu, you’ve misunderstood, he’s not my boyfriend, just a good friend.”
The stall owner laughed, “Yangyang, stop beating around the bush, look at how red this young man’s face has become.
Still saying he’s not your boyfriend?
Hearing this, Ni Yan decided not to explain any further.
The more she explained, the more unclear it became.
But why was Mo Qishen’s face so red?
As a grown man, his skin seemed too thin!
Ni Yan then went with Mo Qishen to buy some beef, lamb, and pork. She bought a lot, at least three pounds to start off with.
Mo Qishen, intrigued, asked, “Yangyang, can you finish all this?”
Ni Yan replied, “I’m planning to go to Guangguan tomorrow, so I’m buying a bit more. It’s inconvenient for my mom to go grocery shopping with the kids.”
“Going to Guangguan? What time is your train?” Mo Qishen asked next.
Ni Yan shook her head, “I haven’t bought the train ticket yet. I’m not in a rush, I’ll just get one tomorrow whenever it’s available.”
Mo Qishen said, “Train tickets to Guangguan are not easy to get. It just so happens that I have some matters to attend to there as well. I can accompany you. Guangguan is near the border and it’s not safe for a young girl like you. Leave the train tickets to me, I’ll get the ones for tomorrow morning at 8 o’clock.”
Guangguan indeed was in an unrest state, with gangsters running rampant, and Ni Yan drawing attention due to her looks.
Although he knew Ni Yan was well capable of defending herself, she was after all a girl. If anything were to happen, it would indeed be her at loss.
Ni Yan quirked an eyebrow, “Didn’t you say train tickets are hard to get?”
Mo Qishen smilingly said, “I happen to have a classmate who’s a ticket seller.”
“Alright.” Ni Yan nodded, “Thank you then, Brother Mo.”
“You agreed, Yangyang?” The sudden surprise caught Mo Qishen off guard.
He had assumed that Ni Yan, given her personality, would certainly reject his offer.
Ni Yan laughed, “Why wouldn’t I agree if I have a free bodyguard?”
She didn’t dislike Mo Qishen, quite the contrary, she enjoyed the feeling of being with him.
Life is short. If you like someone, why not accept their offer?
Given a second life, Ni Yan did not want to compromise her happiness and satisfaction.
Mo Qishen masked his excitement, responded, “Alright, I’ll wait for you at the station tomorrow morning.”
“Sure.” Ni Yan nodded in agreement.
…
After dropping Ni Yan off, Mo Qishen arrived at a building.
Just as he arrived at the entrance, Morris and Marcus hurriedly greeted him, “Sir, the plane tickets are booked. When do we depart?”
Walking while removing his windbreaker, Mo Qishen said, “No longer going to F Country, go book me two train tickets to Guangguan for tomorrow morning at eight.”
The assistant following behind immediately reached out to take the windbreaker from him.
No more F Country?
Going to Guangguan?
Taking the train?
Did the boss get a fever?
Morris and Marcus looked at each other, both seeing the doubt and confusion in the other’s eyes.
After a moment of thought, Mo Qishen added, “Oh right, the tickets need to be for a soft sleeper berth, preferably side by side.”
Soft sleeper place?
Isn’t it always the plane when Mo Qishen travels?
What on Earth is a soft sleeper berth?
After a bit, Morris finally asked, “Sir, are you sure you no longer wish to go to F Country? Your vineyard and castle wait there for you, needing your attention…”
“No longer going.” Mo Qishen unbuttoned his cuffs, “Go buy the tickets right away.”
Could a vineyard and castle be more important than his darling?
Of course not!
“Alright,” Morris said.
The boss’s word is final.
…
At this time, Ni Yan was in the kitchen cooking.
In addition to the regular nourishing and beauty foods for the night, she also wanted to make a dish of boiled pork slices.
After she had fried everything else, Ni Yan began preparing the boiled pork slices.
The best-tasting boiled pork slices are made with loin meat.
Ni Yan had good knife skills; she cut the pork into evenly thick slices, then coated them with egg, flour, and left them to marinate for ten minutes in a dish.
While the pork was marinating, Ni Yan began to cook the base ingredients.
