Chapter 77 This thing isn't cheap; it'll cost seven figures.
Jian Ning answered the doorbell video call and saw an unfamiliar face.

"you are?"

The other person was dressed in a black suit, with a neat tie and silver-rimmed glasses, his face practically screaming "top talent".

The man nodded politely and said in a solemn tone, "Ms. Jian, hello. I am the special assistant to the president of Yichen Technology. Today, I am here to deliver a small gift to you as instructed by the boss."

Jian Ning pressed the door switch and said, "Then come in."

The little Border Collie popped out of Chen Qian's arms and excitedly ran out to greet people.

Chen Qian looked puzzled.

Why is the dog running out so excitedly?

Jian Ning turned around and smiled, "That shows you're observant."

Chen Qian's expression twisted: "Ningning, why do I feel like you're implying something about me? Tell me, what work do you need me to do? Just tell me what you need me to do."

Jian Ning didn't stand on ceremony at all. "Okay, there are still some radishes that haven't been washed yet. You can wash them for me, and we'll dry some radish slices this afternoon."

As she spoke, Jian Ning brought out a large stainless steel bathtub and a sack of radishes, which she then threw into the yard.

"You've dried so many radishes, can you even finish them all?" Chen Qian glanced at the pile of dried radishes drying above him and muttered to himself.

He moved with practiced ease, quickly filling the large bathtub with water from the tap in the yard, then dumping all the radishes into the tub. His eyes scanned the surroundings, spotted a stool, and he pulled it over to sit down.

When Assistant Liu arrived at the courtyard gate carrying an exquisite gift box, he only saw a man inside, his trousers rolled up, bending over in a large bathtub washing radishes.

"Hello, is this Ms. Jian's home?"

Chen Qian looked up, wiped the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand, and said weakly, "Yes, the door is open, come in."

Assistant Liu then pushed open the wooden door and walked in, smelling a faint aroma of radishes in the air.

Hearing the noise, Jian Ning came out of the house.

"You must be Miss Jian?" Assistant Liu bowed and politely handed over the gift box in his hand: "I heard that young people like to play with prayer beads these days. The boss just happened to buy one at an auction a while ago, and he specially asked me to give it to you as a gift."

Jian Ning took it, opened the box, and saw a string of dark green jade beads inside.

She took it out and put it on her left hand; it fit perfectly.

Then, he raised his hand and looked at it from left to right.

She used to think this color was old-fashioned, but after trying it on, she found that it really made her skin look fairer and was quite pretty.

"It looks great, I really like it, please thank your boss for me."

After delivering the items and receiving a reply, Assistant Liu did not linger any longer.

"I'm glad you like it, Miss Jian. I will definitely pass on your words to the boss."

After Assistant Liu left, Chen Qian, who was sweating profusely from washing radishes, glanced at the jade bracelet on Jian Ning's hand.

"Ningning, this thing isn't cheap; it'll cost seven figures."

Jian Ning felt a sudden heaviness in her wrist. She rubbed the jade bracelet with her right hand and clicked her tongue slightly, "So expensive?"

Chen Qian nodded affirmatively, "Yes, is he your new boyfriend?"

Jian Ning shook her head. "A friend."

Chen Qian's curiosity was also appropriately withdrawn.

In adult interactions, it's best to keep things brief and respect boundaries; don't ask questions you shouldn't.

He picked up a washed white radish and took a bite of it raw. "Ningning, I'll take two of these radishes with me later."

Jane has always been generous in this regard.

"Take it, I have plenty of radishes in my radish patch."

She cleared 21 acres of land, and with the help of magic, the vegetables grew very quickly.

What's amazing is that the vegetables don't rot in the ground, but they do get old.

Many vegetables, if not harvested, will start to flower after a while, and after pollination, they will produce vegetable seeds.

She collected some vegetable seeds and stored them in her storage ring. After harvesting the vegetables, she would sow new seeds on the land.

Perhaps because of her wood spirit root, the vegetables she grows are almost unaffected by the weather and seasons. However, not wanting others to think it's too outrageous, she only grows some seasonal vegetables.

At noon, she made a bowl of fish fillets boiled in sauerkraut broth.

The fish were caught from the artificial lake and were blackfish kept in the self-flowing stream next to the yard.

I also steamed a bowl of taro and pork ribs, stir-fried a plate of garlic lettuce, and braised pork knuckle that was baked in the oven until the skin was crispy and tender, then sprinkled with barbecue seasoning.

Finally, I made a bowl of three-delicacy soup.

Chen Qian's eyes lit up when he saw the table full of dishes.

"Ningning, the dishes you made look even better than those from a five-star chef." He rubbed his hands together, picked up his chopsticks, and said, "I won't stand on ceremony with you."

Jian Ning smiled and said, "Eat."

Chen Qian's first bite was naturally his favorite vegetable, lettuce.

You see, that night, a few lettuce leaves in his instant noodles made him wake up early the next morning and the first thing he did was to cook instant noodles with lettuce in order to recreate the taste.

Unfortunately, the lettuce outside doesn't taste like this.

He took a bite of the lettuce, his eyes narrowing in satisfaction. "This is the taste, this is exactly the taste! It's so delicious, crisp and with a hint of sweetness."

Seeing that he really liked lettuce, Jian Ning offered, "I still have lettuce in my field, you can take some with you when you leave."

"Alright, alright, I won't stand on ceremony with you."

Chen Qian nodded immediately without hesitation; any hesitation would be disrespectful to the lettuce.

He picked up another piece of pork knuckle, the crispy, tender skin and the soft, juicy meat inside. One bite, and his long-dormant craving for meat was instantly satisfied.

He sighed, "The food in this university cafeteria is okay at first, but it gets greasy after a while. I've never seen any fresh meat in it; it's all processed meat."

Jian Ning bluntly stated, "But you seem to have gained a little weight since last time."

Chen Qian laughed and said, "That's why I don't eat in the cafeteria. I eat out on the back street of the school every day. There are so many restaurants on that back street. Next time you come to Beihua, I'll treat you to a whole bunch of them."

Jian Ning hummed in agreement, "I'll come visit you when I have time."

"Sure, there aren't any bars behind the school, but there are plenty of quiet bars where you can play board games or something. I've gotten to know a lot of freshmen, lots of handsome young guys. When you come, I promise I'll take you out for a good time." Chen Qian patted his chest, making a promise.

Jian Ning smiled and agreed.

She often enjoys being alone, but sometimes when she's been alone for too long, she needs to go outside and get some social interaction.

After lunch, Jian Ning took Chen Qian to the vegetable garden.

Chen Qian carried a plastic bag, filling it to the brim with the vegetables he wanted to eat. Before leaving, he reassured her that he would definitely get the contact information for the remaining people within two days.

No sooner had Chen Qian left than Jian Ning, now that she had some free time, wandered around the villa.

She went to check on the chickens.

Since we bought them, these chickens have been left to roam freely without any care.

When I went to see them this time, I found that the chickens had completely changed. They had shed their uniform yellow down and grown new feathers.

I reckon we'll be able to eat it around the time of the Lunar New Year.

When she got home, she saw Xiao Heqi sitting under the eaves in the courtyard, with a little Border Collie lying at his feet, its tail wagging from side to side.

Jian Ning asked in confusion, "Why are you here?"

Xiao Heqi stretched out a hand towards her. His wrist and entire palm were fair, with pink knuckles and prominent veins on the back of his hand.

"I felt a bit unwell after taking my medicine today, so I came to see you."

He reached out his hand to her, meaning he wanted her to take his pulse.

Jian Ning pretended to put her hand on Xiao Heqi's arm, but in reality, the green light emanating from her fingertips had already been placed on Xiao Heqi's body.
