The village beauty and me!

Chen Huan immediately explained, "Don't overthink it."

"My sister-in-law and I are now completely used to having you in the house, and no one wants to kick you out."

"Isn't this just to help you start your own business?"

Zhao Liping cheered up again, fumbling for the tens of thousands of yuan in her hand.

Suddenly, he said, "How about we move to town together?"

"There's not much development in this remote area. I'll open a shop, and your sister-in-law can help me look after the shop and stuff. She won't have to do anything."

"Staying cooped up at home every day, only occasionally visiting the neighbors, I guess life would be boring."

"Should we stay somewhere else?" Chen Huan pondered.

He had thought about this question since he gained the ability.

And he was quite certain that he couldn't live here with Li Chunlan forever, and that they would have to move to another place sooner or later.

For example, truly bustling metropolises.

This way, Li Chunlan can also experience a truly wealthy and comfortable life.

However, I still have things to finish right now and don't have much energy to think about this.

And if it's just about moving to town, it doesn't seem to make much sense.

"Let's talk about this later."

"When I have time later, I'll teach you more traditional Chinese medicine techniques, so you won't always encounter unexpected situations like this and be unable to solve them," Chen Huan quickly responded.

Zhao Liping nodded. "You're right. I haven't even learned the basics of what you're saying yet. I'm definitely thinking too much."

"Looks like I'll have to bother you for a while longer."

  

At this point, Zhao Liping's expression became noticeably ambiguous.

Chen Huan understood what she meant, licked his lips, and said, "I'll be waiting for you tonight."

Zhao Liping suddenly glanced guiltily at the rearview mirror.

Their vehicle was driving very slowly, just to make Li Chunlan behind them anxious.

Zhao Liping looked at Li Chunlan, her expression becoming increasingly guilty.

Then, frowning, he said, "Let's both be more careful in the future."

"I have a feeling that your sister-in-law has discovered something."

Chen Huan's hand trembled, and the vehicle almost went out of control.

"What do you mean? What do you mean by 'it seems like I've discovered something'?"

Zhao Liping clicked her tongue and said uncertainly, "After I finished working at your place last night, I clearly heard your sister-in-law snoring when I got back, but when I got into bed, I clearly saw her eyes move."

"That's clearly not how someone looks when they're asleep."

"What if she finds out about us?"

Chen Huan was in a state of confusion and also felt guilty, so he glanced at Li Chunlan not far away through the rearview mirror.

"Don't overthink it, let's minimize contact for now." That's all he could say for now.

Two cars stopped one after the other at the entrance. Zhao Liping went back inside to change her clothes first.

He kept lamenting that being a doctor and making house calls these days is just too difficult.

Going out once could mean losing a whole set of clothes; the risk is too great.

"What were you two talking about in the car just now?" Li Chunlan asked casually as she got off the tricycle.

But Chen Huan felt more and more that the other party seemed to have really discovered something.

"Sister-in-law, I..." Chen Huan felt a little guilty, and he suddenly wondered whether he should take the initiative to confess and admit his mistake.

"What's wrong with you?" Li Chunlan stood in front of him, her face smiling, but her gaze was definitely different from usual.

This further convinced Chen Huan that Zhao Liping's concerns had become a reality.

Chen Huan rubbed his hands together, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke again, "There's something I want to be honest with you about."

"I don't know why I couldn't control myself, but Zhao and I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Li Chunlan reached out her small hand and covered his mouth.

He frowned slightly and scolded in a low voice, "You brat, at least you still have some conscience."

"You know to come and admit your mistakes."

Chen Huan blushed deeply, feeling quite embarrassed and at a loss for what to do.

Now, he can handle any situation with ease, whether it's a ruthless local tyrant or a beautiful and alluring young woman like Liu Qian.

But when facing his sister-in-law Li Chunlan, he always felt an instinctive fear and tension.

To be precise, it should be a matter of respect, after all, Li Chunlan's status was different, and she had taken good care of him after marrying into the Chen family.

At this moment, I feel more like a child who has done something wrong, extremely anxious and nervous.

However, Li Chunlan did not seem angry, nor did she seem to want to blame anyone.

She pulled her hand back, then gently pinched Chen Huan's arm and whispered, "I noticed something was off between you two a while ago, but you went too far last night, making such a commotion that I couldn't pretend to be asleep."

"When you were with me, you weren't this enthusiastic."

At this point, a hint of jealousy was clearly visible on Li Chunlan's face.

Chen Huan's eyes widened in surprise. "You...you knew all along, yet you're not angry?"

"Why would I be angry? Compared to Zhao Liping, I'm already a withered flower. I'm content just to have spent some time with you..." Li Chunlan suddenly lowered her head, looking dejected.

"What does that mean?"

"Are you still angry with me and not going to talk to me anymore?" Chen Huan asked anxiously.

Li Chunlan frowned and said, "I'm really not angry. Men, especially at your age when you're strong and healthy, it's normal to have impulses and needs."

"I'm really not available these next couple of days, I can understand whatever you do."

"However, I am a widow and older than you, so we are ultimately not suitable for each other. In the future..."

Li Chunlan seemed determined to harden her heart and sever the ambiguous relationship between herself and Chen Huan.

But even after mustering up the courage, I still couldn't bring myself to say those words.

"Whatever you want to say, I disagree."

"At worst, I'll just change this habit," Chen Huan said firmly.

Seeing Chen Huan's reaction, Li Chunlan's heart seemed to melt instantly.

The slight jealousy that had been there before has now completely disappeared.

He reached out and ran his hand through Chen Huan's hair. "You've got a new hairstyle, you look much more handsome than before."

"How come I never noticed before? Your face, especially your eyes, are so captivating!"

At this point, Li Chunlan seemed to be moved, her eyes glazed over as if they were brimming with spring water.

But then he quickly withdrew his hand, took a deep breath to calm himself, and said, "I fully understand your feelings, and I'm very happy about it."

"What I said just now was indeed ill-considered and too impulsive. In fact, if you really asked me to give up on your feelings, I probably wouldn't be able to do it."

"Since that's the case, let's just let things take their course. As for your relationship with Zhao Liping, I never objected to it in the first place, nor was I angry about it."

"Just remember to be mindful of your behavior when you two are messing around in the future, and don't make too much of a commotion..."

"And your body, don't let her drain you dry. Don't you know to save some for your sister-in-law?"
