I couldn't take it anymore; when I went home for Chinese New Year, the family genealogy book ha

Finally, under Jiang Chen's arrangement, Su Qing was taken to the best accommodation in the village—Wang Dagou's three-story villa, which had just been built not long ago.

Jiang Chen funded a simple renovation of this place into the village's "Number One B&B," specifically for receiving important guests.

Although the room's decor, in Su Qing's eyes, wasn't even up to the standard of the maid's room at home, it was indeed bright and clean, and the bed sheets and blankets smelled freshly dried in the sun.

Lying on the wooden bed that was a bit too hard for her, Su Qing tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

Early the next morning.

Su Qing, sporting faint dark circles under her eyes, received a call from a 4S store in the provincial capital.

"Hello Ms. Su, we have conducted a preliminary inspection of your vehicle, and the situation is not optimistic. The engine and transmission have varying degrees of water ingress and damage, and several key imported parts need to be replaced."

"At the fastest, it will take three days to get the goods from Germany."

"Three days?"

Upon hearing this news, Su Qing felt not only no disappointment, but also... inexplicably, a secret joy welled up within her.

Very good!

Now I have a legitimate reason to stay here a few more days!

After hanging up the phone, Su Qing immediately dialed her father's number and, before he could scold her, spoke in a passionate and ambitious tone:

"Dad! I've made up my mind! I'm not going back!"

On the other end of the phone, Su Tianhao was already overwhelmed with worry because of his daughter's disappearance, and upon hearing this, he became even more furious:

"You crazy girl! What else do you want to do?!"

"Dad! Listen to me!" Su Qing's acting skills instantly came online.

"I've found my purpose in life! I want to respond to the nation's call, settle down in the countryside, and experience life! I want to do... do live streaming to help farmers! Yes! I want to start my own business! I want to prove to you that I, Su Qing, am not just a good-for-nothing who only knows how to spend money!"

Su Tianhao remained silent for a full half minute on the other end of the phone.

"Good...good! My daughter...my daughter has finally grown up! She's finally sensible!"

"Is that enough money? If not, Dad will transfer you another hundred million!"

"Enough, enough! Dad! I want to rely on myself!"

Su Qing hung up the phone with a righteous expression, then let out a long sigh of relief.

Get it!

To make her reason for "starting a business" seem more genuine, Su Qing actually took action.

She found her full set of professional live-streaming equipment, carrying a phone stand and a fill light, and dressed in a brand-name outdoor sportswear set. She strode confidently toward the fields and countryside of the village, ready to shoot some "authentic" footage.

However, the "original ecology" of the countryside soon gave this young lady a rude awakening.

She had just pointed her camera at the entrance of a farmhouse where a large rooster was leisurely strolling around.

A large white goose with a ring of gray feathers around its neck and extremely hostile eyes rushed out of the yard!

"Gah—!!"

The big white goose stretched its neck, spread its wings, and strode towards Su Qing with an arrogant gait, like a small white tank!

"ah--!!"

Su Qing had never seen anything like this before. Terrified, she turned pale and ran away!

As a result, all the villagers in Jiangjia Village witnessed an extremely comical scene.

A beautiful girl from the city was chased all over the village by the incredibly powerful "goose" from Aunt Wang's house at the east end of the village, her screams echoing through the sky.

Just as Su Qing was about to be caught up, she was so anxious that tears were about to fall.

A figure appeared slowly and deliberately between her and "Goose King".

It's Jiang Chen.

He had just come from the strawberry greenhouse, and he was holding a freshly picked strawberry in his hand.

"Gah..."

Su Qing hid behind Jiang Chen, her hands instinctively gripping the hem of his clothes tightly, her chest heaving violently, her heart pounding wildly.

Jiang Chen turned around and looked at her disheveled appearance, with her hair messy and her face covered in dust, and couldn't help but laugh.

"Are you helping farmers, or just feeding the geese?"

He held the large strawberry in his hand to Su Qing's lips.

"Miss, the countryside isn't an amusement park. If you're bored, go help my mom pick strawberries. She'll provide meals."

Su Qing looked at the bright red strawberry in front of her, which was emitting an enticing aroma, and then at Jiang Chen's teasing face. Her cheeks flushed red instantly.

She snatched the strawberry, took a big bite, then puffed out her chest and said defiantly:

"Who says I can't! What's so great about picking strawberries!"

"Let me tell you, I studied marketing! Your strawberries are of such good quality, selling them for only thirty yuan a pound is an absolute waste!"

"You wait! I'm going to help you sell these strawberries for an astronomical price!"

Jiang Chen looked at her spirited appearance, smiled, and said nothing.

He discovered that although the girl was a bit fierce and spoiled, she didn't seem to have a bad heart.

and……

She is indeed quite good-looking.

Just then, a voice that only he could hear quietly rang in his mind.
