feeling a bit awkward for a moment.She was about to pick up the juice in front of her, taking a strategic sip of water to ease the awkwardness. Who knew that the next second, another hand with distin..."...." Rong Zhaonan looked at the petite girl beside him.

"Well, have you ever seen a fish riding a car" Ning Yuan raised an eyebrow.

His worldview was shaken. He realized women are to men like bicycles are to fish

In my mind, I saw the image of a fish riding a car...

"Hmph... hahaha." Róng Zhāonán couldn't help but chuckle softly.

He hadn't smiled in many years, but this little spy was too entertaining. Where did his mind come up with so many crazy ideas

Ning Yuan felt herself being mocked and raised her voice: "That's exactly it, I can earn money and work points myself, I do the housework myself, and when I get sick, I go to the hospital. What else can a man be good for"

"I'll still have to cater to him and his whole family, and in the end, I'll have to take care of him until he dies!"

Rong Zhaonan looked at her bristling with anger and couldn't help but chuckle. "How come you make it sound like you've been married before and served a man your whole life"

Ning Yuan pouted and turned her head, angrily biting on a skewer of meat: "You're just saying that most families around here are like this, right I have eyes, don't I"

Rong Zhaonan looked at Ning Yuan's puffed-up appearance and teased, "So this is why you don't want to get married — men are useless"

Ning Yuan was so annoyed by him, he acted seriously and jokingly at the same time. She bit into her meat viciously: "It's true, besides giving birth in bed, what use is a man..."

As soon as she finished speaking, she knew she had made a mistake.

Rong Zhaonan meaningfully rested his chin in his hand and smiled: "Ah, yes, that requires a man to cooperate and complete the... tasks in bed. You know quite a bit about it."

Ning Yuan's little round face was flushed, and she rolled her eyes at him. "Hmph, Doctor Rong, this is basic medical knowledge!"

This person had a handsome and refined face, but their tone was so roguishly wicked that her heart skipped a beat.

The girl beside him lowered her head, her fair ears reddened and soft, making Rong Zhaonan narrow his eyes. He unconsciously pressed the tip of his tongue against his molars.

I wonder what it would taste like.

"I thought you and Mr. Li were talking about getting together, so I understood a lot." He lowered his eyes and collected himself.

Ning Yuan's face turned cold: "I'm not dating him. He was introduced by my aunt. You understand because the neighbor's aunt is a doctor at the hospital, and I live next to the hospital. My aunt often takes me and her children to play there."

Explanation is just masking, but what she said was also the truth, she didn't lie to him.

Rong Zhaonan didn't know why, but when he heard her say she had never dated anyone, a strange sense of comfort filled his heart.

He turned his face, got up and took a cut watermelon over, and handed it to her: "Eat this"

Ning Yuan looked at the watermelon in her hand in surprise. "Where did you get this watermelon"

Rong Zhaonan pointed to the mountains: "They grow everything here, even cumin and fennel and chili peppers."

Ning Yuan looked at him with a helpless expression. "You wouldn't be clearing land and farming in the mountains, would you"

"Just a piece of land, guaranteeing that your physical fitness won't decline. There needs to be enough supply, after all, you might have to stay here for life." Rong Zhaonan said casually.

Ning Yuan thought about it, too. If he didn't secretly plant things in the mountains and hunt, these next few years would be very difficult for him.

Downsizing cadres are not allowed to have their own plots of land.

"No, you won't be here forever. Order is being restored everywhere, the economy is recovering, and you will go home." Ningyuan shook her head.

Rong Zhaonan looked at her, his eyes a little deep: "Are you so sure I still have a chance to leave here"

Ning Yuan looked at him earnestly: "Because everything is getting better, and you are capable, the dragon won't always be confined to shallow waters."

Rong Zhaonan looked at the girl in front of him, his heart feeling a mixture of emotions.

No one had ever spoken to him like that before, though he didn't believe he would be trapped here forever.

She was the first to affirm him when he was at his lowest.

"Here you go," he said, handing over the watermelon and the roasted ribs.

Ning Yuan smiled sweetly: "Thank you, Dr. Rong!"

Watermelon is sweet and refreshing, and the roasted wild meat tastes delicious. It's enough to make her mouth water. hit her forehead, she would have nightmares for three days and wouldn't want to eat anything.Rong Zhaonan moved faster than her, like an arrow leaving the string, he darted forward and reached the sh...
