Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 558: Chapter 560: Okay, Let’s Go to Lin County At this point, Yang Ming was getting anxious. He didn’t understand what Chu Lian was up to, clearly liking someone and then speaking so unpleasantly. At this rate, when would he ever get to marry the girl? How could he be even more clueless than himself? At least he knew that after falling for his wife, he always spoke sweet words.

As soon as he asked, the dining table fell silent, everyone awaiting Han Yongsheng’s reply.

Han Yongsheng finally spoke, ”Right, I plan to start my journey back tomorrow, so I thought I should let you know in advance.”

The moment Wang Xiangxiang heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief. This man was finally leaving. If he didn’t leave soon, she would feel unbearably awkward. Luckily, Han Yongsheng did not bring up the previous matter, and it was best to act as if nothing had happened.

Hearing that Han Yongsheng was leaving, the host, out of politeness, felt compelled to offer for him to stay, ”Young Master Han, won’t you stay a few more days?”

”No need, the thing is, I’d like to invite you to our Yongan Fish Pond for a visit and inspection, to see if we have the capacity to collaborate with you,” Han Yongsheng explained his intention.

At this moment, Xiaoxiao’s eyes started to roll around—this was an opportunity. If they were to collaborate, they would certainly need to see for themselves. She hadn’t yet left this county; this could be a chance to travel. Moreover, Wang Xiangxiang could also go; her mood had been so poor lately, perhaps a change of scenery would do her a lot of good.

Although she wanted to go, she didn’t show it outwardly, ”We were planning to take my sister out for a change of scenery soon, so we might not have the time.”

Upon hearing they wanted to take a break, Han Yongsheng quickly replied, ”Then why not relax in Lin County? Take this opportunity to visit our Yongan Fish Pond.”

Likewise feigning indecision, Xiaoxiao asked Wang Xiangxiang, ”Sis, what do you think about going to Lin County for a break?”

Wang Xiangxiang had originally intended to refuse; she wanted nothing to do with Han Yongsheng and certainly wouldn’t rush to his turf.

Just as she was about to refuse, she heard Chu Lian’s voice, ”There’s no need to go to Lin County to relax—any place would do.”

Chu Lian thought to himself, he mustn’t let Xiangxiang get too close to that Han Yongsheng. He had to be on guard against him.

His words, however, only incited Wang Xiangxiang. She was so used to bickering with Chu Lian that she reflexively wanted to oppose anything he said. So she blurted out, ”Fine, let’s go to Lin County.”

This response infuriated Chu Lian, ”You...”

Seeing Wang Xiangxiang agree, Yang Ming also chimed in, ”Okay, then we’ll take my sister to have a break in Lin County. If we have the time, we’ll definitely visit your Yongan Fish Pond.”

”Then I’ll be waiting for you in Lin County,” Han Yongsheng said cheerfully. As long as they set foot in Lin County, he would find a way to connect with them; and since Yang Ming had mentioned it, it was very likely they would visit the Yongan Fish Pond, so their potential partnership still had hope.

Chu Lian, hearing that Yang Ming had decided to take Wang Xiangxiang to Lin County, felt this was throwing a wrench in the works, so he declared outright, ”Then I’ll also go to Lin County with you.”

”What are you going there for?” Wang Xiangxiang asked straight away, upon hearing that he was coming too. It was awkward enough facing Han Yongsheng, and with her coming, it would be unbearable.

Chu Lian, eating his food, said leisurely, ”I’ve been wanting to relax too, and since everyone’s going, it would be more lively together.”

”...”

Xiaoxiao broke into a scheming grin, Chu Lian was indeed quick on the uptake, ”Alright, let’s pick a time, and the four of us will go together.”
