159: Chapter 159 Strawberries! More strawberry picking!

Strawberries!

Right, picking strawberries!

Brother Qin Lin likes eating strawberries; she could pick some and bring them to him.

That way, it wouldn't seem intentional.

She walked quickly toward the Ecological Plantation, pushed open the door, and stepped inside.

The upgraded Ecological Plantation was three times larger than before, with tiered planting racks filled with various fruits and vegetables.

The strawberries were on the innermost layer, their bright red fruits hanging among green leaves, emitting a sweet fragrance.

Su Yuling walked over, picked up a small basket, and began picking strawberries.

One, two, three...

She picked them slowly, her mind completely elsewhere.

"Sister Yu Rou?" she called out tentatively.

No one responded.

She walked a few more steps further in and looked around.

"Sister Yu Rou? Are you there?"

Still no one.

Standing before the strawberry rack, Su Yuling suddenly felt a sour pang in her heart.

As expected, Yu Rou wasn't there.

She had gone to the Drivers Cabin.

To find Brother Qin Lin.

Su Yuling lowered her head, looking at the basket of strawberries in her hand, suddenly feeling a bit aggrieved.

Why could Sister Yu Rou be so proactive while she didn't even dare to knock on the door?

She recalled what her sister had said earlier:

"You're beautiful, cute, and have a good personality. It's impossible for Qin Lin not to like you."

But...

But she really didn't dare.

What if Brother Qin Lin didn't like her?

What if he only saw her as a younger sister?

What if, when she went in, she saw Sister Yu Rou and Brother Qin Lin doing...

She didn't dare think further.

"Su Yuling, pull yourself together!"

"If Yu Rou can do it, why can't you?"

She took a deep breath and began picking strawberries.

One, two, three...

As she picked, she suddenly remembered what Sister Yu Rou had told her before.

"I'm going to take Brother Qin Lin down, step by step."

Sister Yu Rou had a goal and a plan.

What about her?

She had nothing.

Just standing here feeling sour and aggrieved.

"No." She clenched her fists.

"I need a plan too."

But... what kind of plan?

She thought for a long time, but her mind was a complete blank.

Finally, she thought dejectedly: Forget it, I'll just pick strawberries first.

At least... at least I'll have a reason to go see him.

...

Inside the Drivers Cabin, Han Yurou was leaning against Qin Lin, enjoying a rare moment of solitude together.

But she knew very well that she couldn't go too far today.

She had her own plan.

"Brother Qin Lin, I should go back now."

Qin Lin looked at her. "So soon?"

"Mhm."

Han Yurou sat up and straightened her bikini and gauze cover-up.

"If I stay any longer, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold back."

Qin Lin smiled.

"Hold back from what?"

Han Yurou glared at him, her face flushing slightly.

"You know."

Of course, Qin Lin knew.

During that time just now, although nothing substantial had happened between them, the ambiguous atmosphere was already at its peak.

Han Yurou leaned against him, her small hands restlessly tracing circles on his chest, occasionally probing toward certain areas.

Qin Lin was so teased by her that his temper flared, and he nearly lost control several times.

But the girl always pulled back at the critical moment.

"Brother Qin Lin," Han Yurou leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Don't be in a hurry. Sooner or later, I'm going to devour you."

Qin Lin looked at her.

Her eyes were bright, filled with cunning and a certain firm determination.

"Devour?" he asked intentionally. "With what?"

Han Yurou's face turned even redder, but she didn't pull away.

"What do you think?"

Qin Lin laughed, sounding very pleased.

This girl was getting bolder and bolder.

"Alright, I'll be waiting."

Han Yurou nodded with satisfaction and stood up.

"Then I'm leaving."

She walked to the door and glanced back at him.

"Brother Qin Lin, you look really handsome today."

Then she opened the door, stepped out, and closed it.

The sequence of actions was smooth and practiced.

Qin Lin leaned back on the sofa, savoring her last words, and couldn't help but smile.

Han Yurou, Han Qing.

This relationship was indeed a top-tier bonus.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became; the fire inside him didn't subside but instead grew stronger.

"This girl..."

He shook his head helplessly.

"Lighting a fire and then running away, she's something else."

Qin Lin leaned back on the sofa and closed his eyes, trying to calm the restlessness.

But his mind was filled with images of Han Yurou leaning against him just now.

And her words, "Sooner or later, I'm going to devour you."

The fire had been stoked, but there was no one to see it through.

This girl, she really lets me look but not touch.

...

After leaving the Drivers Cabin, Han Yurou didn't go straight back to the Viewing Platform.

She went to her room first.

She changed out of her bikini into a light dress, checked herself in the mirror, and nodded with satisfaction.

Then she returned to the Viewing Platform.

The flush on her face hadn't faded, and there was an irrepressible smile at the corners of her mouth.

When Su Yuran saw her, her lips curled up slightly.

"You're back?"

"Mhm!"

Han Yurou sat down beside her.

She hesitated for a moment and whispered:

"I want to ask you about... some things."

Su Yuran raised an eyebrow.

"What things?"

Han Yurou's face flushed slightly, but her gaze was serious.

"About... Brother Qin Lin."

Su Yuran smiled.

She had long guessed this day would come.

"Go ahead, what is it?"

Han Yurou leaned in close and whispered a plan.

After listening, Su Yuran was stunned for a moment, then she laughed.

"Yu Rou, this idea of yours... is quite bold."

"Is it very perverted?" Han Yurou asked, feeling a bit uneasy.

"It's not perverted." Su Yuran shook her head. "It's... very creative."

Han Yurou's eyes lit up.

"Really?"

"Really. But are you sure your mother will agree?"

Han Yurou thought about it.

"I think so. Mom has been under a lot of pressure lately. If I can help her..."

She didn't finish, but Su Yuran understood.

"You want to... substitute?"

"No, it's together. If I get pregnant, rounding it off, it would be her child too."

"Yu Rou," she asked seriously, "Have you really thought this through?"

Han Yurou nodded.

"I have."

"No regrets?"

"No regrets."

Su Yuran looked at her determined gaze and smiled triumphantly.

"Alright, I'll help you."

Han Yurou jumped up happily.

"Thank you, Sister Yuran!"

"Don't be so quick to thank me. This matter requires the right time, place, and people. We can't rush. First, listen to me..."

The two huddled together and began discussing in low voices.

"I like Brother Qin Lin and want to be with him, but... I don't want to keep it from Mom."

Su Yuran nodded without saying a word.

Han Yurou continued, "That way, she won't feel like I'm stealing her man, and..."

She paused, her voice getting even softer.

"And I think this is actually quite good."

After listening, Su Yuran was silent for a few seconds.

Then she laughed, sounding very happy.
