Her Cultivation Diary-Chapter 1946 - 1724: Even Yanping Can Do It

Huo Xueying has wanted to change jobs for a long time.

When she was single, she could tolerate it, but now that she’s in a relationship, she doesn’t have much time to spend with her boyfriend. Her stingy boss always wants one person to do the work of three, and overtime is getting more frequent.

However, her professional skills are not outstanding, so wherever she jumps to, the bosses are actually about the same, which is why it’s just a thought.

Now, after much deliberation, she’s finally resigned, but there’s no news on the new job yet, so she’s quite stressed.

Seeing the message from Song Tan, she habitually refused: "I haven’t decided on a new job yet. I plan to take this opportunity to go to more interviews..."

Song Tan understands the struggles of a worker, so he doesn’t insist, simply saying:

[Ning City to Yun City high-speed trains are available anytime, the journey takes two hours. From the station to my place, there’s a village shuttle that takes seventy to eighty minutes]

[You don’t need to bring anything. There’s a ready-to-stay guesthouse—if you feel awkward about it, you can stay at my cousin’s place]

[You can eat with me every day, and if you’re still uncomfortable, the mountain cafeteria is also a good option]

[If you feel down and have made your work decision, come stay for a couple of days. Drive over after work on Friday and return by Sunday night, it’s doable]

After sending these, Song Tan added a thought:

[It’s okay if you really can’t make it, coincidentally it’s the peach-picking season, I’ll send you a box when I’m done]

Huo Xueying: ...

With a fleeting expression, she suddenly reached out and pinched her cheek—Hey! It doesn’t hurt! Proves that her skin is thick!

So she quickly messaged: "Can my boyfriend drive me there?"

She hasn’t practiced with her driver’s license yet!

After pondering a bit, she added: "Please, rich lady!"

...

Zheng Qu hadn’t even finished work when he received a call from his girlfriend: "Going to Yun City on Friday, to Song Tan’s place. Are you free? If you are, think about what we can bring from home!"

Zheng Qu: ...??? So sudden? It’s Thursday today!

"I haven’t taken leave..." he instinctively said, but his girlfriend was already urging:

"No need for leave, drive there Friday night, return Sunday night. Song Tan said food and lodging are covered—if you don’t go, I’ll take the train myself!"

Zheng Qu remembered his girlfriend who would only share a handful of fried rice with him, chuckled: "Are you planning to eat and pack?"

Otherwise, with her secretive mouth, she wouldn’t share such a good thing with him.

Huo Xueying confidently said: "Am I not thinking of you?!"

Of course, she was.

Zheng Qu quickly said: "Then don’t worry about preparing things, I’ve got plenty of gifts from people at my dorm, I’ll pack them in the car tonight."

Huo Xueying pondered: "Then I’ll get some local snacks as gifts..."

It’s embarrassing to say, but can’t afford anything more expensive. After years of working hard, still quite poor.

After hanging up the phone, Zheng Qu was full of anticipation. Recently, while the higher-ups had been busy, their secretarial work was still manageable, and a weekend trip within the province wouldn’t be affected at all!

He could even take a photo with Song Tan’s family photo wall, to see how the big leader poses in the corner?

Excited, he returned to the office only to see Director Wang’s back, unsure: "Any tasks?"

Colleague shook his head: "No, just asking about this week’s matters..." 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Probably planning for next week’s work schedule, hey, being a leader, especially one who wants to do real work, is certainly not idle.

Meanwhile, Secretary Wang happily took his tea cup to meet the leader: "I confirmed repeatedly, there’s no urgent matters this week—Leader, are we leaving on Friday or Saturday?"

Leader pondered for a moment: "Friday, I believe Saturdays and Sundays have the most visitors? We must find time to assess the current profitability model of that village."

"Okay," Secretary Wang was full of anticipation: "I’ll book the room first."

And arrange a doctor’s appointment as well.

With the leader traveling low-key, it surely wouldn’t be just the two of them. There’s the matter of which car to take... these all need to be arranged.

Thinking of all these plans, Secretary Wang’s heart was filled with anticipation.

...

Their decision was made neatly and swiftly, but it resulted in Song Tan being scolded by Wu Lan:

"See, when I asked earlier if your friend was coming, you said she didn’t have time, but ask once and she’s coming now? Be sincere next time, make a call! Video chat!"

Song Tan: "..."

"Mom, we young people don’t like such greeting methods; we get to the point, no need for calls, video chats."

Wu Lan scoffed: "If you don’t say it face-to-face, just asking will make people think you’re not sincere, they won’t feel comfortable coming."

"Come on! Invite other friends; we have help this year, won’t be too busy to entertain."

Plus, there’s no debt now, not spending money on viewing things in the field, feels generous to give away.

Overall, even though Wu Lan often scolded Song Sancheng for being loose with money, sharing the same blanket, she’s the same.

This time hearing Song Tan emphatically say no one else was coming, she sighed: "When I was young, despite tough conditions, I had many friends. How come you don’t have any worth inviting?"

Song Tan pondered seriously.

After pondering:

She solemnly said: "Among classmates I remember, there’s Xin Jun’s ex-girlfriend, my rich classmate Qianqian."

Wu Lan wouldn’t agree to that: "I saw Qianqian last time during rice harvesting. No wonder she doesn’t click with our Teacher Xin, her head seemed dumb..."

"No way, don’t invite her, no matter how rich she is."

"Xin Jun is good-looking and kind, needs someone exceptional to match."

Clearly biased, treating him as one of their own.

Thinking of this topic, Wu Lan got anxious:

"Even Yanping is dating, how come Teacher Xin hasn’t made any moves? Our village is too small..."

Coincidentally, Zhang Yanping came over, hearing this he wasn’t happy: "What do you mean [even Yanping is dating]? I’m talented, educated, cultured youth!"

He fiercely, his face turned threatening, showing not grievance but threefold menace.

Wu Lan instinctively hushed: "Well, shall I rephrase?"

Zhang Yanping: ...Aggrieved!

Feeling greatly wronged, couldn’t be the only one whose girlfriend sees his value?

He unhappily turned away, frowning, heading towards the clinic.

Wu Lan watched his back hesitantly: "Doctor Guo’s patients, lots of familiar faces, should be alright?"

But speaking, no one echoed.

Looking again, Song Tan was showing Lun Chuan his phone screen:

"College students are asking, can they bring their spouses?"
