When She Stops Being Dramatic novel Chapter 420

Chapter 420: Chapter 151: The Green Tea Supporting Female Character in the Period Novel (38)

At times like this, he would silently get up and begin to channel all his chaotic thoughts and longings into words. With this outlet, looking at the stack of paper thick enough to be a book, he realized that love, too, could be quantified and qualified.

But at this very moment, all those words were useless. He could only say that one dry sentence, and then use the most direct actions to express the depth of his feelings!

Chi Yun’er hugged him back. A woman’s emotions are more delicate than a man’s. They often wish they could become like a dodder vine, wrapping themselves around a man, losing their own identity in the relationship, and in doing so, push him further and further away.

She used work to suppress such thoughts.

But the moment he pressed his body against hers... ’What was logic?’

She had already lost herself completely...

The two of them were lovey-dovey in the room for a while, then went to a nearby state-run restaurant to eat, took an afternoon nap at the library, went shopping, had dinner, and saw a movie...

By the time they headed home, the sky was already pitch-black, with only faint streetlights marking the familiar yet strange streets.

Chi Yun’er’s face was full of reluctance. Half a day had passed in the blink of an eye.

She had to part from him again, and that familiar longing surfaced right on cue!

She tugged on the corner of Jiang Yihua’s shirt, clinging to him, unwilling to let go.

And how could Jiang Yihua feel any better?

"Be good. You’ve had a long day, go home and get some sleep. What do you want for breakfast tomorrow?"

"And while you’re at it, think about where you want to go tomorrow."

Chi Yun’er bit her lip and glared at him. "Comrade Jiang Yihua, is there really nothing else you have to say to me?"

Jiang Yihua raised an eyebrow and asked, feigning confusion, "Did I forget something?"

Then he patted her head and coaxed, "My dear wife, why don’t you give me a hint?"

Chi Yun’er studied him seriously. With his eager yet helpless expression, he truly looked as if he didn’t have a clue.

She pressed her lips together firmly. "Actually... you could make a slightly more forward request. I might even consider agreeing, you know?"

Behind his back, Jiang Yihua was pinching himself hard.

He just loved the way his dear wife looked when she wanted something but was too coy and proud to ask directly.

Cute, impish, and so precious he cherished her to his very bones!

His gaze lowered slightly as he asked tentatively,

"Your work is very tiring now. Do you want to transfer to the agricultural institute?"

"Actually, I don’t think it would be a problem. My wife is a genius at making money. Even if her unit doesn’t have an open position, she can carve one out for herself. She can even become a junior director, impressive wherever she goes. Her brilliance completely overshadows me."

"Many of the family members at the agricultural institute don’t have jobs. The grounds aren’t small, but with all the buildings, there aren’t any extra vegetable plots for people to kill time in, aside from a few on the ground floor."

"As a result, there are big disparities between the families, and they have a lot of free time. They spend all day kicking up a fuss over trivial matters, throwing the family courtyard into chaos."

"I was originally worried you wouldn’t adapt if you came to the institute; you’d be like a little lamb thrown to the wolves. But, since you seem keen on whipping everyone into shape, I think the men of the institute, young and old, would absolutely put you on a pedestal!"

Chi Yun’er was taken aback. ’What on earth is he talking about?!’

Jiang Yihua, seemingly afraid she didn’t understand, added,

"The agricultural institute might seem like an ordinary work unit, dealing with dirt all day, but our research funding is ample, and as long as you produce results, the rewards are generous."

"Our unit is the type to quietly make a fortune. We’ve accumulated a lot of funds for employee benefits that need to be distributed through proper channels. But we’re struggling to find a legitimate reason, so the best we can do is ensure our material bonuses during the holidays are the best in the city."

"And even that is barely scratching the surface. We desperately need Director Chi to come to our rescue!"

Chi Yun’er was even more bewildered.
