The rural beauty, Chapter 797. Main text, Chapter 797. Should we stir things up now, Chapter 797? Should we stir things up now? By chance, she unexpectedly gained a delightful surprise. Land Yun was thrilled, listening to Hua Zi's heavy breathing and the delicate, bone-etching cries from the one who had already begun to establish a subtle connection with Land Yun—now suddenly furious, lifting her head with a scolding glare. This simply wouldn't do. Land Yun hurried to step back. Though she longed to peek in and see what was happening between the two inside the bathroom, she was afraid of being discovered, and moreover, Tie Xinlan was still waiting for her inside. If she were to suddenly dash off and sneak a look, not only might she be caught, but simply the act of rushing out to see her would make Tie Xinlan impatient—she'd surely shout out in frustration, and Land Yun would be in for it. Once again, she moved silently back to the courtyard. Standing there, Land Yun listened to Hua Zi's soft, tender cries, her heart swelling with emotion. Man, when she had been involved in the earlier group of women's activities, Hua
The door creaked open, and at once, Fei Xinlan's puzzled voice rang out. Lu Yun stiffened, hurriedly turning around to walk toward Fei Xinlan. Reaching her side, he feigned casualness and smiled, saying, "Miss Xinlan, Huazi Uncle is taking a break—he'll be joining us shortly. Why don't we go inside and wait?"
Come on, Huazi Uncle's reputation in the village is top-notch. Even though Miss Xinlan is visiting for the first time, she can't possibly have discovered Huazi Uncle's little secret, could she? Right then, Lu Yun gently pushed her inside.
Xinlan found herself a bit taken aback. She had only wanted to get some fresh air and relieve the stuffiness of being indoors. Instead, Lu Yun had pushed her back inside with such urgency. Was there something he was holding back from her?
"Lu Yun, is there something you'd like to tell me?"
Lian was pushed back into her chair by Lu Yun, her frustration mounting, so she couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
Lu Yun waved his hand airily, "What could possibly be wrong with me?"
As for what came next, Lu Yun himself had no idea—only one thing was certain: he absolutely had to make sure that Xinlan didn't hear the conversation between Huazǐ-uncle and the one with the sharp tongue in the restroom.
Noticing Lu Yun's vague words and his evasive gaze, Xinlan immediately sensed that he was hiding something from her. Though he didn't want to press further, she couldn't help but guess at the details. Suddenly, a thought struck her, and she reached out, pulling Lu Yun right off his path and seating him beside her, smiling lowly, "Little Yun, I now know what's going on."
Seeing Xinlan's look of sudden clarity, Lu Yun felt his heart skip a beat, growing suddenly anxious, "What do you mean, what's going on?"
Xinlan chuckled, "You're still trying to keep it from me, aren't you, you stubborn boy?"
"Lu Yun held his ground, stubbornly insisting, 'Miss Xinlan, I don't understand what you're talking about.'
'About Master Hua's matter?' Iron Xinlan said with irritation, 'It's been this long and you still haven't gone inside. Even if we asked him to help us repair the walls, didn't you already tell him that the walls no longer need work? Yet here you are, still not coming in after all this time—doesn't that suggest something has delayed you?'
Lu Yun watched the look in Tie Xinlan’s eyes and silently sighed, thinking, Oh no—Xinlan has finally noticed. With a slightly embarrassed smile, he said, “Xinlan姐, I don’t really know much about big matters—just a little kid like me, so I’m not very well-informed, hehe…” His words clearly expressed his agreement with Xinlan’s observation, though he knew it was one thing to realize it himself, and quite another to actually say it out loud.
"If it weren't for knowing that this was the first beer Fei Xīnlán had ever drunk, Lu Yun would have thought Fei Xīnlán's words were just drunken nonsense. He stared at her in quiet astonishment, hesitated, and asked, 'Miss Xīnlán, I'm not quite sure what you mean. How exactly does this have anything to do with beer?' Fei Xīnlán chuckled, glanced around, picked up a cloth from the table, and then took a heavy bottle of beer. She rolled the cloth into a cylindrical shape and placed it over the bottle's mouth. Then, holding the cloth, she swiftly moved it back and forth across the bottle's opening—suddenly, with a sharp 'pop,' the bottle cap flew off, and the beer gushed out, immediately soaking the cloth and causing it to drip continuously with liquid. 'Now, do you understand?'
Tie-xin Lan looked at Lu Yun, her cheeks flushed. Lu Yun was momentarily stunned—Tie-xin Lan had already explained it clearly—and exclaimed, “Miss Xinlan, I understand now.” Tie-xin Lan giggled and lifted her beer cup again, saying, “Then why did you keep it from me? This isn’t anything embarrassing at all—I’ve done the same thing myself, haven’t I?” Lu Yun blushed slightly and rubbed his head, saying, “Miss Xinlan, it’s not that I deliberately kept it from you. It’s just that I never thought my uncle Huazǐ would do something like this before. So…” Tie-xin Lan seemed genuinely drunk, smiling softly at Lu Yun, “So you’re afraid that once you’ve had enough of this beer, something unexpected—something you didn’t want to see—might happen, aren’t you?”
Lu Yun was stunned—this had never occurred to him. He knew there must be some untold story behind Hu Zi and the one with the sharp tongue, yet Fei Xinlan’s words seemed to suggest she was worried Hu Zi might have improper intentions toward her. So she quickly said, “Miss Xinlan, Uncle Hu isn’t that kind of man—I can guarantee it.”
Fei Xinlan chuckled, looking at Lu Yun and said, “You’re really tense, aren’t you?”
Lu Yun nodded without hesitation. After all, how could he not be? Hearing that Uncle Hu and the one with the sharp tongue had been doing something intimate in the bathroom, and then, back at the house, still lingering over this such a stunning woman—how could he possibly remain unmoved?
Fei Xinlan suddenly stepped close to Lu Yun and whispered softly, “Shall we start something now?”
