215: We'll see who's better then.

Lin Zifeng and Chen Yuxi didn't walk out of the airport exit until after four in the afternoon.

Upon exiting, the two of them saw Chen Yuqing waiting outside.

Seeing her, Chen Yuxi rushed over and gave her a big hug.

Lin Zifeng walked over to them, greeted Chen Yuqing, and then the three of them got into the car one after another. Chen Yuqing drove them away from the airport.

While driving, she asked, "Yuxi, did you have a good time traveling with Zifeng this time?"

Chen Yuxi chattered away, recounting the details of their trip, and finally said, "Sis, you have no idea!"

"Just yesterday afternoon, there was a little incident."

"Two guys claiming to be Scouts insisted on pestering Zifeng and me to sign with them, wanting us to debut as stars."

"To achieve their goal, they actually tried to sow discord between Zifeng and me right in front of us, attempting to make us go our separate ways. It was absolutely ridiculous."

"Those two guys really disgusted me. I never imagined that entertainment companies could have such self-righteous people."

"Hahaha, if a dignified county magistrate were signed by an entertainment company to be an artist, it would definitely be a huge joke."

"Those two Scouts actually have a pretty good eye. If they really managed to sign you two as artists, you would definitely have the potential to become huge hits."

"But what they didn't know is that the gentleman in front of them is the youngest county magistrate in all of Huanan Province!"

"If they knew Zifeng's true identity, I think their expressions would be quite something."

Chen Yuqing laughed heartily, looking forward to seeing such a scene.

The two sisters chatted happily, with Lin Zifeng occasionally chiming in, and the three of them talked all the way back to the Chen family home.

Two days later, after packing their things, Lin Zifeng drove Chen Yuxi's car, said goodbye to the Chen family, and set off on the journey back to Yushu County.

Lin Zifeng had called home beforehand and learned that his grandparents weren't used to living in an apartment building, so after attending the wedding in the provincial capital, they had returned to their old home in Miaoshan Town.

So, while driving, he said, "Wife, after we get back to Yushu County, we'll first settle into our new home, then go straight to My father's house for dinner."

"My grandparents aren't used to living in an apartment, so they've already returned to the countryside."

"We have to go back to the countryside tomorrow to visit my grandparents, and the day after tomorrow, I have to go to work."

"Husband, it's only right to go to the countryside to visit your grandparents. I've prepared gifts for everyone in the family, and I also want to go see your hometown."

"I want to see the place where you grew up. What kind of place is it, exactly?"

"What kind of magical place could raise such a wonderful man like you?"

Chen Yuxi asked with a curious expression.

"That might disappoint you, as my hometown is just an ordinary little village."

"However, my grandfather is someone who hides his true abilities. Even though he's nearly eighty, a few young men together wouldn't be a match for him."

"I've been practicing the Eight Extremities Fist with my grandfather since I was little, so your husband here has pretty decent skills."

Lin Zifeng said cheerfully.

"Oh, I didn't expect Grandfather to be so capable. No wonder he looks so energetic."

"I knew you knew martial arts, but when we find a chance, I want to try it out myself and see who's better: you, or my women's self-defense techniques."

And so, the two of them chatted all the way, and at a little past two in the afternoon, they walked into their new home with their suitcases.

This house was also a three-bedroom, one-Living Room unit, but it was in a new development completed just over a year ago, so the layout was more rational, and the area was larger than Lin Zifeng's parents' house, totaling over 120 square meters.

This was their first time here; the keys had been delivered by staff from the Office.

After settling in a bit, they held hands and took a good tour of the place before sitting down on the sofa in the Living Room, cuddling together and chatting happily.

"Husband, this will be our little home from now on. My sister is really thoughtful to have the staff arrange everything so completely."

"We can move right in and start our new life."

He nodded and said, "Your sister has been nothing but great to us. She's a non-marriage advocate, so if she ever needs help in the future, we must do our utmost to assist her."

After talking for a while, Lin Zifeng received a call from Zhang Chunhua, and the two of them got up and left.

Chen Yuxi's arrival was warmly welcomed by Lin Zifeng's parents and Li Yuan, leaving Lin Zifeng sidelined instead.

The family happily finished dinner and sat in the Living Room chatting until after ten o'clock. Chen Yuxi gave the three of them the address of the new home, and then the two of them left.

The next morning, Lin Zifeng drove Chen Yuxi toward Miaoshan Town.

After they left the previous night, Lin Jiahua had called the Old Couple.

Upon receiving the news, the Old Couple had long prepared a meal for their reception and had been waiting at home for their arrival since early morning.

They would occasionally look out at the main gate, so by the time they arrived by car, the Old Couple had already been waiting for a long time.

Lin Zifeng drove the car into the courtyard, and as soon as Chen Yuxi opened the car door to get out, Li Lan grabbed her hand.

"Hello, Grandfather and Grandmother." Chen Yuxi greeted them quickly in a sweet voice.

The Old Couple were so happy their faces beamed with smiles. Li Lan responded and said happily, "Good granddaughter-in-law, come into the house with Grandmother. Your grandfather and I have been waiting for you for a long time."

After saying this, she pulled Chen Yuxi inside.

After lunch, Lin Zifeng took Chen Yuxi to many places where he used to play as a child and told her many interesting stories from his childhood.

Making Chen Yuxi laugh continuously.

Originally, they intended to return to the county seat after dinner, but at the Old Madam's urging, Chen Yuxi decided to stay the night.

She planned to leave early the next morning so as not to delay Lin Zifeng's work.

Lin Zifeng certainly wouldn't refuse such a suggestion, so the two of them stayed the night.

The next morning, just as the sky was getting bright, Li Lan had breakfast ready. After eating, the two said goodbye to the Old Couple and drove away.

Returning to the county seat, Lin Zifeng parked the car at the entrance of the County Committee Compound, said goodbye to Chen Yuxi, and walked into the County Committee Compound.

It was currently work time, and the Cadres arriving for work greeted Lin Zifeng one after another, and he kept smiling and nodding in response.

When he entered the Office, Wang Zhongyu had just finished cleaning it. Seeing him walk in, Wang Zhongyu smiled and said, "Magistrate, you're back?"

Lin Zifeng smiled, nodded, and said, "Zhongyu, how has the situation in the county been over the past ten days or so?"

Wang Zhongyu understood what he meant, so while making tea for Lin Zifeng, he reported the situation in the county during this period to Lin Zifeng in great detail.
