Love belongs to the mountains and seas, I don't belong to you

In the kitchen, Lin Cong found the oven.

The oven hadn't been used for a long time, so Lin Cong cleaned it from inside to outside.

She hadn't baked a cake in a long time, so she decided to give it a try.

The resulting cake was truly beyond words.

She felt it was a pity to throw it away, so she gave it to An An.

An An was very excited when she received the cake on the first day, but when she received the cake again on the second day, she looked very upset.

"Sister, please let me go. You want to make a cake for Boss Xiang, you can't treat me as a guinea pig!"

Lin Cong covered An An's mouth, "Shh, don't let anyone hear it, otherwise how will we surprise him?"

An An pulled Lin Cong's hand away and squinted her eyes at him and said, "Sister, do you like Boss Xiang?"

After hearing this, Lin Cong immediately took three steps back and said, "Don't talk nonsense, kid."

"I really approve of this brother-in-law, sister. I support you a hundred percent." An An made a cheering gesture.

"What's the matter? I'm leaving."

Lin Cong's heart was pounding, and she felt nervous as if her secret had been revealed.

When I was almost at the room, I happened to meet Xiang Shao who had just walked into the yard.

"What's wrong? Why are you so flustered?" asked Xiang Shao.

"No...it's okay..." Seeing Xiang Shao, Lin Cong's heart beat faster, "I'm going to rest." Lin Cong pointed to the room.

"Lin Cong!" Xiang Shao called out to Lin Cong.

"what?"

"Would you like to join me for a cup of tea?"

Looking at Xiang Shao, Lin Cong nodded.

Xiang Shao brewed a pot of jasmine tea, which was very fragrant.

Because of the rush to meet at work, the two people rarely have the chance to meet.

Today, all the work was finally completed, and Xiang Shao returned to his room early.

"Is everything done?" Lin Cong asked.

"Well, I just checked again, everything is fine."

Xiang Shao poured a cup of tea and handed it to Lin Cong.

"Once it's delivered tomorrow, the job will be done." Lin Cong's tone was full of joy.

"I've been working hard lately."

"You guys are the ones who are working hard. I've been resting lately and haven't been able to help much."

"How's that shoulder injury?"

"It's okay now."

"It will probably leave a big scar. I'll take you to see it when we get back to China."

"It's okay. You can't see it over my shoulder anyway."

Xiang Shao's expression was very calm, and he looked like he was indifferent to the world.

"I didn't expect you could repair those machines." Lin Cong said.

Xiang Shao looked at Lin Cong and said, "The more skills you acquire, the less you need to ask for help."

"Actually, I'm curious, how do you switch between Young Master Xiang and Boss Xiang?"

"I have always believed that being able to enjoy the best and endure the worst is what it means to be truly mature. I am working hard to move in this direction."

"You've done a great job." Lin Cong praised.

"Do you like Tao Yuanming?" Xiang Shao remembered Lin Cong's words: "Picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, leisurely seeing the southern mountains."

Lin Cong shook his head. "Compared to Tao Yuanming, I prefer Su Shi. 'Who's afraid? A straw raincoat to face the rain in life.' I hope I can live so freely."

"I also like Su Shi. He can enjoy poetry and wine in his youth and also express his youthful enthusiasm."

Lin Cong's eyes sparkled, "Xiang Shao, if all the rich kids were like you, ordinary people would have no chance of survival."

"Can I understand that you are praising me?"

"Be more confident. I'm complimenting you."

Xiang Shao raised his glass and said, "Thank you, I'll have tea instead of wine."

"Those flowers will bloom soon." Lin Cong pointed to the flowers in the distance.

“It’s going to be great.”

The two chatted about daily trivialities and joked around, and before they knew it, it was late at night.

"Go and have a rest. See you tomorrow." said Xiang Shao.

"Well, everything goes well going into the city tomorrow."

"Lend your auspicious words."

"Good night." Lin Cong walked towards his room.

Only after Lin Cong's door was completely closed did Xiang Shao turn around and return to the room.

……

The next day, Lin Cong was very nervous.

It wasn't until she saw Xiang Shao and Azhe coming back that she was completely relieved.

Lin Cong trotted over and asked with concern, "Is the delivery done? Is everything okay?"

Xiang Shao nodded, "They are very satisfied over there."

"That's great!" Lin Cong was very happy to hear the news.

"The boss said that everyone in the factory will have three days off!" Azhe was even more excited.

Lin Cong looked at Xiang Shao, "Really?"

"Well, everyone has been working so hard recently. Only by getting enough rest can we work well."

At this moment, Lin Cong felt that he had underestimated Xiang Shao's vision before.

Everyone in the factory was very happy when they heard the news of the holiday.

At night, Lin Cong quietly found Azhe.

Seeing Lin Cong acting suspiciously, Ah Zhe asked, "Lin Cong, have you done anything wrong?"

"No, I wanted to ask you, how does Mr. Xiang celebrate his birthday every year?"

"It's just the two of us having a drink together. There's nothing here, so let's keep it simple."

"What about this year? What are your plans?"

"You want to celebrate the boss's birthday, right?" Azhe showed a very gossipy expression.

Lin Cong nodded and said, "But I don't know how to get through this, so I came to ask you."

"That's easy, just confess to him!"

"What?" Lin Cong looked at Azhe in amazement.

"Believe me, this is definitely the gift that the boss wants most."

Lin Cong exhaled, his expression very helpless, "Goodbye."

"Hey, Lin Cong, I'm serious, please think about it!"

Lin Cong came to the kitchen again and continued to practice her cake.

After working until late at night, Lin Cong finally succeeded in baking the cake.

On the way back, I actually met Xiang Shao.

"You came back so late. Where have you been?" asked Xiang Shao.

"I didn't go anywhere. I went back first." Lin Cong wanted to play it safe.

Xiang Shao grabbed Lin Cong and asked, "What's that smell?"

"Ah? I went for a run. It might be the smell of sweat. I'll go take a shower." Lin Cong quickly ran back to the room.

This was probably the only surprise she could prepare, and she didn't want to be discovered.

Looking at Lin Cong's strange look, Xiang Shao smiled.

He felt that Lin Cong had changed. He became lively and cheerful, smiling more and more, sometimes even like a child.

I still remember that when we were in City C, after Lin Cong knew that he was Mr. Xiang, there was a look of uneasiness in his eyes, like a frightened kitten.

When she rescued Lin Cong in Country M, there was always a layer of sadness in her eyes.

She was like a fully drawn bow string, always in a state of tension.

I don't know when the sadness in her eyes faded away.

He jokes with people from time to time and looks very confident.

Xiang Shao prefers this kind of forest. He thinks the forest is like evening primrose, unique, beautiful and brilliant.

Evening primrose has a strong adaptability. Whether it is planted in very barren sandy land or in a flowerpot, as long as the soil is loose, it can bloom many flowers vigorously.

And its words are silent love and an unruly heart.

Xiang Shao looked at the yard and thought that it might look nice if he planted evening primrose in all the empty space.
