Chapter 15

Everyone took a ten-minute break and then continued to work. Xiang Nuan stood up, patted her butt and was about to get off the ground. Yan Fangming walked up to her side without her knowing.

“Can you still adapt? If you feel tired, just work slower and take your time.”

It hasn’t been long since her fair little face turned red from the sun.

Xiang Nuan smiled slightly, “Not bad.”

“You guys should switch with the lesbians.”

Zhang Ergang arranged for the male educated youth to pick peanuts and the female educated youth to pull them out. Everyone had no objection and they all put on straw hats and started working.

“I’ll help you pull it out.”

Yan Fangming came here to help Xiang Nuan with the work, so he must go with her.

Xiang Nuan nodded, “Then you can go to the one next to me.”

“good.”

Taohua watched the two of them talking and laughing, and felt a little sad. It turned out that Brother Fang Ming was not here to see her.

Does Brother Fang Ming like Xiang Zhiqing?

She was a little sad, because she felt inferior to Xiang Nuan, and the face she was most proud of became nothing after Xiang Nuan and Gu Wenshu came. What’s more, she was a city girl and more educated than herself.

“Brother Fang Ming, how long can you stay after this trip?”

Zhang Ergang ran to Yan Fangming and started chatting with him while picking peanuts.

“About five or six days. I have to return to the team in a few days.”

As he spoke, he glanced at Xiang Nuan. Time was running out and he had to quickly express his feelings to her.

“So soon, I was thinking of calling my brother and the three of us to go hunting in the mountains.”

Yan Fangming smiled and said, “There will be opportunities in the future.”

“ah!”

Yan Fangming had just finished speaking when he heard a scream in his ear, and the next second Xiang Nuan jumped on him.

“snake!”

He reacted quickly, raised his hands and hugged Xiang Nuan tightly, then retreated to the side. Zhang Ergang, who was standing by, saw the snake coiled in the peanut pit and picked up a big rock from the ground and smashed it hard. Yang Bin and the others also came to help, and the female educated youth had already run away in fear.

“It’s okay, it’s okay, don’t be afraid, I’m here.”

Yan Fangming gently patted Xiang Nuan’s trembling back and soothed her softly. She seemed to be quite frightened.

Xiang Nuan was really scared to death. If she hadn’t been unable to speak, she would have wanted to curse.

When she pulled out the peanut, she found a disgusting snake coiled inside. She didn’t dare to recall that scene, but now her mind was full of that snake.

She was so scared that tears came out.

“Woo woo woo~”

The more she thought about it, the more scared she became. Xiang Nuan, a woman as strong as steel, couldn’t help but burst into tears.

Damn it, when she thought about having to work for several more years and possibly being bitten to death by a snake at any time, she wanted to slit her throat.

“The snake has been smashed to death. I’m not afraid anymore.”

It was the first time Yan Fangming saw her cry like this, and his heart was broken.

Xiang Nuan cried twice to release the fear in her heart, and then she realized that she was still hanging on Yan Fangming. She immediately became embarrassed and tried to get down.

Yan Fangming let go of her hand only after he saw that she had stopped crying.

“Thank you, Brother Fang Ming. I jumped on you because I was too scared.”

On the left is Li Qinghe, and on the right is Yan Fangming. No need to think, Yan Fangming is the best choice.

“It’s okay. How about I go back with you? You can’t do your work like this.”

Xiang Nuan nodded and didn’t refuse. She really didn’t dare to pull them out. Who knows how many snakes there are in such a large area.

“Okay, you have to tell your uncle, right?”

“I’ll go talk to you. Let’s go.”

The snake was smashed to death, and everyone gathered around to care for Xiang Nuan.

“Xiang Zhiqing, are you okay? The snake is not poisonous. Don’t be afraid. I have already killed it.”

Zhang Ergang was heartbroken. The girl he liked was frightened and he could only express his concern verbally but could do nothing else.

“Nuan Nuan~”

Gu Wenshu didn’t say anything, but just reached out and held her cold hand, silently comforting her.

Xiang Nuan forced a smile and looked at them, “Thank you for your concern, I’m fine.”

“I’ll send Nuan Nuan back to rest first, you guys go back to work.”

Yan Fangming saw that Xiang Nuan didn’t want to stay here for a moment, so he interrupted them.

“Okay, Nuannuan, go back and rest, don’t think too much.”

Li Qinghe said something to comfort her, Xiang Nuan nodded and followed Yan Fangming.

She walked on the country road, keeping her eyes and ears open as if she was sweeping a minefield, for fear that another snake might suddenly appear.

Yan Fangming felt distressed and couldn’t help laughing at the same time when he saw this.

“Don’t be afraid, I’m watching, there won’t be any snakes.”

Xiang Nuan frowned and thought that when she got home, she would go to the people in the 24th century to ask if there was any potion that could protect her from all poisons. She had not thought about it so much before because nothing had happened. Now it seemed that she had to take out a few more insurance policies for her life!

Yan Fangming accompanied her to ask Yan Mancang for leave. After hearing about it, Yan Mancang did not make things difficult and let her go back and rest for a day. However, he became very angry when he saw his son following Xiang Nuan like a tail.

What a useless brat! He can’t even walk when he sees a beautiful girl!

When they returned home, Yan Fangming poured her a glass of water, which Xiang Nuan drank in one gulp.

“Brother Fang Ming, thank you for what I said just now.”

If there hadn’t been such a tall man standing next to her, she might have been frightened to the ground. Although the snake was not poisonous, if she was really bitten, it would be enough to leave her with a lifetime of psychological trauma.

“Why are you being so polite to me?”

Yan Fangming put his big hand on her head and rubbed it gently, just like before, smiling lovingly.

Xiang Nuan turned her head back a little embarrassedly. What’s wrong with this handsome guy? Your behavior makes it easy for me to suspect that you have bad intentions towards me!

When Yan Fangming saw her reaction, he wanted to confess his feelings right away, but then he remembered that she had just been frightened, so he decided not to say it. What if he frightened her again?

“Well, why don’t you lie down for a while. I’ll be outside, call me if you need anything.”

Xiang Nuan nodded, “Okay.”

【Seconds, seconds! Seconds, seconds! Are you there?】

As soon as Yan Fangming left, Xiang Nuan started calling her old friend from the 24th century.

[Yes, yes, yes! I just finished eating the spicy noodles! ]

The other side replied immediately.

Xiang Nuan suddenly felt a little angry. They were both system hosts. Look at others, and then look at yourself!

[I was almost bitten by a snake just now. Did you drink any potion that can make your body immune to all poisons? ]

[Ah? You are so unlucky! Yes, there is, but it is more expensive. ]

How expensive?

[This is a potion that completely transforms your physical fitness. The ingredients in it are very expensive. It costs 1 million system coins.]

If these system hosts want to trade with money, they must first convert their money into system coins and then conduct the transaction.

The exchange rate between Xiang Nuan’s current currency and system coins is 1:10, which means that one dollar can be exchanged for ten system coins, so one million system coins will require 100,000 dollars.

She only got a little over 10,000 yuan from Xiang Jinghua, plus the original owner’s private money of less than 12,000 yuan. Even if she was sold, she couldn’t get that much money!
