Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path

Chapter 296: Chapter 296: A Knife Above the Word ”Endurance

”Aren’t you going to rest for a while?” Seeing Gu Lingling standing there, Yang Yunhai said casually, ”I’ll take you somewhere in a bit.”

”To watch a show?” Gu Lingling retorted.

Yang Yunhai, ”...”

This girl is hooked on watching shows?

”No.” Yang Yunhai glanced at her and added, ”There are some fruits in the car, why don’t you go wash and eat them.”

”Oh.” Gu Lingling, feeling liberated, hurried to the car to get the fruits. If she stayed here watching Yang Yunhai any longer, she’d probably start daydreaming about him again.

She didn’t know why, but even when she was staring at the ground, she could still see Yang Yunhai’s long, straight, and sturdy legs, which looked incredibly good.

Just looking at those long legs, she could imagine how perfect his body must be.

Gu Lingling felt doomed. How could she develop such ’carnal desires’ for him?

It really was like a toad wanting to eat swan meat!

Um... describing herself as a toad seemed a bit harsh, but who was Yang Yunhai?

The former top-ranking officer, even after transferring back to the local area, he was making waves in the Capital City. Who didn’t know about him there?

And as for her?

She was just a country girl.

Gu Lingling shook her head like a rattle, telling herself not to be ungrateful. Brother Yang had helped her so much, and here she was thinking about wild fantasies—so shameless.

Yes, she was shameless.

Thus, the shameless Gu Lingling continued brainwashing herself while washing the fruits by the canal not far away.

When she returned, she stood even more properly beside Yang Yunhai, ”Brother Yang, I’ve washed all these fruits clean, do you want to try some?”

Yang Yunhai’s cleanliness obsession was something she never forgot.

”Sit down and eat.” Yang Yunhai sat up and looked at her, ”How did it go?”

Just a moment ago, she was coveting his good looks, wanting nothing more than a taste. But after just a short fruit-washing session, she reverted to the obedient and rule-abiding Gu Lingling.

”No, nothing.” Gu Lingling laughed with her head down, ”I don’t really recognize these fruits. They’re not from around here, right?”

They’re not tropical fruits either.

She used to recognize some tropical fruits at the Overseas Chinese Hotel.

”Hmm, no.” Yang Yunhai picked one up and handed it to Gu Lingling, ”Have a taste, see if it’s good?”

The fruits were fetched by that stupid bird.

Yang Yunhai knew these were good things and the first thought was to bring them for the little girl to eat.

Gu Lingling took a bite, the sweet and tangy refreshing taste seemed like a stream of cool spring water flowing into her heart in this hot summer. She squinted her eyes and took another bite, ”Brother Yang, you should try it, it’s really delicious.”

The little girl said excitedly, ”This is the best fruit I’ve tasted so far.”

A certain black bird who flew back scoffed: sounded like you’ve tasted many fruits? But at least you have good taste; this is a fruit fetched from the valley by the Black Bird King, how could it not be delicious?

Foolish girl.

Yang Yunhai watched her lazy yet satisfied demeanor, wishing he could kiss her little cheeks.

Patience is a virtue!

But these fruits are really good; he could ask the Black Bird to get some more for the little girl in the future.

”If it’s good, eat more.” Yang Yunhai chuckled fondly.

”Cough cough...” Gu Lingling choked on his smile, starting to cough vigorously.

”How are you so careless?” Yang Yunhai hurriedly patted her back, ”Eat slowly; they’re all yours.”

Gu Lingling, ”...”

Oh, she wanted to cry, but it came from being stunned by Yang Yunhai’s smile, not from being seen as a foodie in his eyes.

Boo hoo... really wanted to go draw circles!
