Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 173: Chapter 172: Just Not Sending Her Off

The two of them chatted in the house for a while, and Song Yueqin saw that it was getting late and prepared to head home.

Just as Qin Feng finished scrubbing the pots and entered the house, Li Junping asked her to see Song Yueqin off.

”Sure,” Qin Feng agreed readily.

”No need to see me out,” Yueqin said with a smile, ”It’s not necessary to trouble yourself, I’ll just go back now while there’s still some moonlight.”

”How can that be!” Li Junping said, ”It’s so dark outside, I can’t be at ease with you, a girl, going alone.”

Since Li Junping insisted on having Qin Feng escort her, Yueqin did not object.

Just before leaving, she suddenly remembered the lipstick in her pocket and took it out to give it to Qin Feng, ”This lipstick, take it and use it. I bought it last time I went shopping in the city.”

Qin Feng’s eyes lit up with joy, ”Oh my goodness, you’re giving me something so expensive?”

”It’s not expensive to me! Just take it, it’s a gift for you,” Yueqin said very generously.

These days, anyone who could have a box of Snowflake Cream in the village was considered pretty good.

Now Qin Feng had a lipstick, and she immediately felt she stood out from the others.

She suddenly found Yueqin quite nice, always giving her some rare things, which made their relationship grow even more.

Li Junping also found her increasingly pleasing to the eye.

Qin Feng then happily went out to escort her, with Li Junping following behind.

Just as they reached the doorway, they ran into Qin Jian coming back.

Li Junping promptly called out to Qin Jian, ”Yueqin is leaving, and it’s so dark outside, why don’t you escort her?”

This was also a way of indirectly creating an opportunity for her son, in case the two of them took a liking to each other, having Yueqin as her daughter-in-law wouldn’t be bad at all.

Qin Jian looked up at the sky, where the moon was very bright.

Though he didn’t speak, that one glance was already quite telling.

Yueqin knew that Qin Jian didn’t want to escort her, but not wanting to miss the rare opportunity, she pleaded, ”Big Brother Qin, could I trouble you to escort me back? I’m really scared of walking alone at night.”

Qin Jian’s gaze was cool as he looked at her and asked indifferently, ”Are you really scared?”

”Mhm,” Yueqin nodded vigorously.

Qin Jian turned and glanced at Tian Niu, ”You make a run and take Song Yueqin home!”

”But... isn’t that a bit inappropriate, Commander?” Tian Niu looked at him, feeling uneasy.

”What’s inappropriate about it?”

”Auntie said you should do it! The lady also said she wants you to escort her.”

Qin Jian frowned and commanded in a stern voice, ”Tian Niu, serving the people doesn’t differentiate between you, me, and others. You are me, I am you. Go on, take her home!”

Tian Niu: ”...”

It seems that in the future, he really should avoid being around both Qin Gong and Jiang Gong.

The two were the perfect partners, equally cunning, and when they wanted to trap him, there was no negotiation.

And to think he had the gall to call Jiang Gong a fox; he was hardly any different, both cold and dark-hearted!

Yueqin had already seen through him, Qin Jian simply didn’t want to escort her.

If that was the case, she didn’t insist. After all, if one path was blocked, she could always take another.

All she needed to do was to win over his mother and sister, and opportunities to get close to him would not be scarce in the future.

She then said to Tian Niu, ”I’m troubling you, Big Brother Tian!”

When she got home, Yueqin ran into Song Fei, who had been waiting for her at the door.

”Yueqin, did you give Qin Feng the food and the lipstick I asked you to deliver?”

”Of course, I gave them both! Did you think I would keep them for myself?” Yueqin replied, dissatisfied.

”What did you say to Qin Feng? Was she happy?” Song Fei looked at her with hopeful expectation.
