The fragrance of medicine fills the countryside in 1990

Chapter 102: Su Chenjin cleverly fights the two brothers Su Yue and Su Ming, and the wisteria flowers of Jiangda are blooming

Su Yue gently pushed open the door of the apartment, and a warm homely atmosphere filled the air.

As soon as he stepped into this space, he felt an inexplicable tense atmosphere in the air.

His eyes inadvertently caught Su Chenjin's stunned look at that moment.

Su Chenjin was originally sitting at the dining table, enjoying dinner with Chen Fangyu.

However, the moment Su Yue came in, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, as if she saw some unexpected person.

She frowned slightly, but quickly concealed her inner surprise and calmed herself down.

Chen Fangyu stood in front of the door, looking at Gu Xinliang and Su Yue who suddenly visited with a look of surprise.

She obviously did not expect to have an unexpected guest like Su Yue at tonight's dinner.

Originally, she had carefully prepared two exquisite side dishes just to spend a quiet and warm dinner time with Su Chenjin.

At this moment, the dishes on the table, surrounded by four people, suddenly seemed a little lonely and shabby.

Seeing the slightly awkward situation, Su Yue immediately turned into an enthusiastic mediator. With a smile on his face, he suggested with an attitude that could not be refused: "Why don't I treat everyone to a meal tonight? Let's choose the cafeteria near the school. The dishes there are rich and varied, and the environment is quite elegant. It will definitely satisfy everyone."

His words were like a spring breeze that instantly blew away the dullness in the room and injected a warm current into this small space.

When Chen Fangyu heard this, a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes.

She glanced at the dishes that had been prepared on the table and made some calculations in her mind.

It was obviously too late to buy groceries now, and she didn't want to make the guests who came from afar feel poorly entertained.

So she turned to look at Su Chenjin beside her, hoping that she could give a better suggestion.

Gu Xinliang did not express his attitude immediately. He sat quietly on the sofa in the corner, observing everything around him calmly.

His eyes were deep, flashing with an elusive light.

With his hands folded in front of his chest, he appears calm and unhurried, as if waiting for something.

But Su Yue was completely different. His eyes were shining with anticipation and joy, like a bright pearl, shining in the darkness.

She looked at Gu Xinliang from time to time, as if waiting for his response.

Chen Fangyu stood aside, looking at Su Chenjin, with a look of embarrassment on her face.

She frowned, thinking about how to start.

Finally, Chen Fangyu took a deep breath and said to Su Chenjin, "Xiaojin, what do you think we should do about this?"

There was a hint of hesitation and helplessness in her voice, and she was troubled by this sudden situation.

As night falls, the breeze blows through the half-open window, gently blowing the curtains and bringing a cool feeling.

Su Chenjin sat at the dining table, his eyes fell on the dishes that had already become a little cold, and his brows furrowed slightly.

She seemed to be thinking about something.

The atmosphere in the house seemed a little dull. The air was filled with the aroma of food, but it lacked some liveliness and joy.

Su Chenjin pondered for a moment, and after weighing the pros and cons, she finally nodded gently with a faint smile on her lips.

"Let's not go outside!" she said softly, stood up, walked to the kitchen door, turned on the stove, and prepared to reheat the dishes.

The firelight shone on her face, reflecting her concentration and seriousness.

After a while, the dishes in the pot began to steam and the aroma filled the air.

Su Chenjin also made a few simple side dishes, including tender green vegetables, golden eggs, bright red peppers... the colors were so colorful that they whetted people's appetite.

He brought the dishes to the table one by one and placed them in their original positions.

Although these dishes are not as exquisite as the big meals outside, they seem particularly warm and beautiful on this quiet night.

"This should be enough for dinner." Su Chenjin nodded with satisfaction, sat at the dining table, and led others to enjoy this simple yet warm dinner.

A strange light suddenly flashed in Su Yue's originally calm eyes, as if he was hit by an invisible force, and his body trembled unconsciously.

He quickly calmed himself down, took a deep breath, and said in a voice that left no room for doubt: "That won't do. No matter what, I have to treat you to dinner today!"

There seemed to be an indescribable persistence and stubbornness in his voice, as if this dinner was an extremely important and meaningful thing to her.

After saying that, Su Yue pulled Chen Fangyu and Gu Xinliang beside him without hesitation. His movements were swift and decisive, as if he was afraid of missing anything.

Chen Fangyu and Gu Xinliang were pulled by him and walked quickly towards the outside of the apartment.

Su Yue's steps were vigorous and powerful, and each step was firm and powerful. After walking a few steps, Su Yue suddenly stopped and looked back at Su Chenjin who was standing not far behind him.

His gaze lingered on Su Chenjin for a few seconds, and a hint of politeness and friendliness flashed in his eyes.

Then, he smiled and invited: "Little girl, come along!"

That voice was full of warmth and kindness, as if inviting an old friend to share the joy and anticipation.

Su Chenjin was a little stunned by Su Yue's sudden invitation.
She stood there, looking ahead with complicated eyes, her heart full of hesitation.

Originally, she didn't want to participate in this sudden invitation. After all, she didn't have much interest in this unknown gathering.

However, just as she was struggling internally, Chen Fangyu suddenly took action.

She suddenly broke free from Su Yue's tightly grasped hand, as if an invisible force pushed her to walk quickly to Su Chenjin's side.

Chen Fangyu gently stretched out her arm and tenderly held Su Chenjin's arm.

Her movements were both natural and intimate, as if the two of them had already been close friends.

She leaned close to Su Chenjin's ear and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Xiaojin, let's go together. Su Yue is Yao Lao's client, and this gathering may contain some useful information for us. Besides, you don't have to worry, I'm by your side."

Su Chenjin was moved by Chen Fangyu's words and actions. She looked at Su Yue's enthusiastic face, and the hesitation and worries in her heart slowly dissipated.

She nodded and responded with a smile: "Okay, then I'd better obey your command."

She looked up at Chen Fangyu, a hint of trust in her eyes.

The night was as dark as ink, and it fell quietly. The breeze brought a hint of coolness, gently blowing the trees on both sides of the street, making a rustling sound.

Under the street lights, light and shadow interweave like a mottled painting, adding a bit of mystery and romance to the quiet night.

Gu Xinliang and Chen Fangyu walked side by side through the bustling streets. They exchanged glances from time to time. No words were needed, as they understood each other's inner thoughts.

Finally, they arrived at the agreed hotel.

The hotel's door was open, and golden lights sprinkled on the steps in front of the door, like a golden carpet, welcoming their arrival.

As you enter the hotel, an atmosphere of luxury and tranquility hits you.

The marble floor is as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the soft light; exquisite paintings are hung on the surrounding walls.

Gu Xinliang and Chen Fangyu smiled at each other, and the tension in their hearts was slightly relieved in this luxurious environment.

Su Ming had been standing in the hotel's magnificent lobby for a long time. He was wearing a neat dark suit, like a tall pine tree standing in the bustling city.

His tie was tied neatly, his leather shoes were polished to a shine, and he looked energetic, full of confidence and strength.

When Gu Xinliang and Chen Fangyu appeared at the entrance of the lobby, Su Ming's eyes immediately lit up.

His face showed the joy of reunion, as if he had seen an old friend he hadn't seen for many years.

He walked quickly forward, stretched out his arm, and shook hands with the two men enthusiastically. His sincere smile was like the sunshine in spring, warm and bright.

However, at this moment, Su Ming's gaze inadvertently fell on Su Chenjin.

At that moment, his expression suddenly became complicated, and the pair of eyes that were originally full of enthusiasm became deep and sharp. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Su Chenjin carefully, revealing an indescribable doubt and uneasiness in his eyes.

Su Chenjin felt Su Ming's gaze, but she did not show any strange expression.

She stood there quietly, her eyes as deep as the sea, seeming to be able to swallow up all troubles and doubts.

She did not avoid Su Ming's gaze, but looked at him calmly, waiting for what would happen next.

Su Ming sat there quietly, his eyes slightly narrowed, like a pair of cheetah's eyes, secretly observing everything around him.

He is like a wise man hiding in the dark, silently observing the operation of the world.

Su Chenjin sat down next to Chen Fangyu and Gu Xinliang. Her arrival injected a breath of fresh air into the originally dull atmosphere.

Su Ming looked at Su Chenjin, revealing an indescribable emotion.

The two brothers Su Ming and Su Yue sat quietly opposite Su Chenjin.

Their eyes flashed with a cold light. The brothers' gazes intertwined and collided in the air, forming invisible sword energy. When facing Su Chenjin's calmness, the two of them struggled in their hearts, as if they were carrying out a battle without gunpowder.

The air froze at this moment, and all the sounds around them disappeared, leaving only the tense and subtle atmosphere between the three of them.

There was no expression on Su Ming and Su Yue's faces. Finally, Su Yue broke the silence first.

He smiled gently, raised his head slightly, looked directly at Su Chenjin, and said slowly: "It is a rare honor to have you all here today. It is really a pleasure to make friends with you all here."

His voice was as melodious as the strings of a musical instrument; every word danced in the air, conveying an indescribable charm.

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole space seemed to shake, and the tense and subtle atmosphere dissipated.

Su Ming listened quietly to his brother Su Yue's narration, his eyebrows raised slightly, as if he had caught some important clues at the same time.

He lowered his head slightly, leaned close to Su Yue's ear, and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "This little Miss Su Chenjin, have we ever met in the Jiangnan Herbal Medicine Market? I remember that at that time, there seemed to be some friction between us because of something. It really was like a case of no acquaintance without fighting."

Su Yue heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then she showed a look of sudden enlightenment: "Oh, so she is the Su Chenjin! I remember that the two of you seemed to have a dispute over a rare medicinal herb, and later attracted a lot of onlookers."

Su Ming nodded and continued, "Yes, it's her. Moreover, I always feel that she seems to have some unusual connection with Xing Miao. Although we don't have direct evidence, my intuition tells me that she may know something that we don't know."

Su Yue frowned when she heard this, and was obviously shocked by this discovery.

He said in a deep voice: "If this is true, then we must be careful. Xing Miao has always been mysterious, and we can't let him take advantage of us."

Su Yue turned her head slightly and cast a sharp gaze at Su Chenjin, with curiosity, exploration, amusement, and a hint of teasing.

The corners of his mouth curled up into a faint smile, but it was very cold and indifferent: "Student Su Chenjin, I really look at you with new eyes. I didn't expect that you are so young, but you can have such extraordinary abilities."

Su Yue paused, as if recalling what she had just said, and continued, "Xing Miao has always been arrogant and self-righteous. It is almost impossible for ordinary people to catch his eye. But you actually have a connection with him, which is really beyond my expectation. It seems that you are definitely not an ordinary person, and you must have something extraordinary."

Su Chenjin listened to Su Yue's words quietly. She couldn't help but reveal a faint smile and nodded, savoring the deep meaning of Su Yue's words.

There was a hint of humility in her tone, but also an unyielding pride. Even the proud brothers Su Yue and Su Ming had to look askance at Su Chenjin's attitude. Su Chenjin slowly spoke, "I just met Mr. Su Ming today during the day, and I met you two brothers again in the evening. This kind of encounter is really rare. However, I am just an ordinary person. Although I am a little smart, I am not as rich as you, who can call the shots in this prosperous world."

As soon as she finished speaking, the atmosphere in the originally quiet and solemn room suddenly became even more tense.

It seemed that a slight hissing sound could be heard in the air; it was the invisible pressure quietly spreading.

The two brothers Su Ming and Su Yue looked at each other, there was an indescribable light flashing in their eyes, as if they were communicating some secret.

There were complex emotions flashing in Su Ming's eyes, like guilt, self-blame, and a hint of unwillingness.

He looked at Su Chenjin deeply, as if he wanted to penetrate her calm appearance and explore the ordinary temperament and conversation beneath her tough coat.

Su Ming could clearly see that Su Chenjin still hadn't gotten over what happened during the day, and his bright eyes revealed an indescribable complex emotion.

He lowered his head slightly, a bitter but slightly sweet smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his voice was filled with self-mockery and helplessness: "I am such a person, always accidentally touching other people's bottom line, making people feel dissatisfied. I often don't give people face, making the situation awkward.

I know that this is my shortcoming, a flaw in my character. I have been working hard to correct it and become better. However, some habits are deeply rooted. They are like stubborn stones, rooted deep in my heart, and it is not so easy to remove them. "He paused, raised his head, and his eyes were more determined and sincere: "But tonight, my brother specially invited you to come here, which is enough to prove that he values ​​and appreciates you. Someone who can be valued so much by my brother is naturally a talented and capable person. Although I, Su Ming, sometimes speak without thinking and without restraint, I am also a person who knows how to appreciate talents.

Since you have been recognized by my brother, you must have something special about you. I naturally have to respect you a little and try my best to get along with you in a friendly way. "

After saying this, Su Ming took a deep breath, as if he had unloaded the burden in his heart, but the dark light in his eyes passed indifferently across Su Chenjin's face, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.

Although Su Ming is a straightforward person who easily offends others and has a gloomy heart, it does not mean that he does not know how to respect and understand others. However, Su Chenjin is not someone Su Ming takes seriously.

Su Chenjin stood under the bright light and saw through Su Ming's heart at a glance.

She raised her head slightly, with a cold arc at the corner of her mouth, as if mocking the other party's hypocritical disguise.

There was a tense atmosphere in the air, as if it was about to explode.

"There's no need for you to force me!" Su Chenjin said coldly. Her voice was crisp and firm, like icicles in the cold wind, stinging everything around her.

There was a hint of teasing in her tone, as if she was mocking the other person's cleverness.

"Pretending to be nice in front of people, but playing dirty tricks behind their backs."

Su Chenjin continued, with a hint of disdain and contempt in her voice.

She seemed to have seen through the other party's true face and was accustomed to this kind of trick.

The air around them seemed to freeze, everyone held their breath and listened quietly to Su Chenjin's words.

Her voice echoed in the empty room, sounding exceptionally clear and powerful.

Su Chenjin's gaze was like a sharp sword, piercing straight into the other person's heart.

She saw through the other person's disguise and revealed his true face in front of everyone's gaze.

A trace of embarrassment and anger flashed across the other person's face, but he didn't dare to lose his temper.

He knew that Su Chenjin had seen through him and could no longer pretend.

The moment Su Ming heard those words, his originally calm face seemed to be ignited by fire. The rage burned fiercely, almost devouring his reason.

He stood up suddenly, and the legs of his chair made a harsh sound on the ground, just like the angry roar in his heart.

His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, shooting straight at Su Chenjin, as if he wanted to see through her.

Su Ming narrowed his eyes and opened a pot of strong liquor. The air was filled with a strong aroma of liquor. Su Ming's hands trembled slightly and he held the wine glass tightly. It was anger and determination.

He raised his hand suddenly and placed the glass of wine accurately in front of Su Chenjin.

The wine swayed in the glass, and Su Chenjin's face turned pale instantly, but she did not dodge.

"If you don't drink this glass of wine today, don't even think I'll let you go!"

Su Ming shouted coldly, his voice was like the north wind in the cold winter, icy and biting.

It seemed as if it was going to devour Su Chenjin in endless anger.

Su Chenjin looked at the wine glass, slightly stunned, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

She raised her head and looked at the person who handed her the wine glass. Su Ming had a provocative smile on his face, with a playful gleam in his eyes.

Su Chenjin quickly regained her composure. She smiled gently, like a spring breeze blowing across the lake, without disturbing any ripples.

She waved her hand gently and pushed the wine glass away gracefully, her action revealing that there was no room for doubt.

"I can't drink." She said lightly, her voice clear and decisive, with an irresistible power.

She looked straight at Su Ming and saw through his hypocrisy and intentions.

Su Ming obviously didn't expect Su Chenjin to reject him so directly. His expression changed slightly, but he soon returned to smiling.

He tried to use a more provocative tone and said, "Oh? Is Miss Su afraid of making a fool of herself in front of everyone? Or is she worried that her alcohol tolerance is not as good as others?"

Su Chenjin smiled lightly, as if mocking his shallowness and ignorance.

She shook her head and said, "You are wrong. I am not afraid of making a fool of myself, nor am I worried that I can't drink as well as others. I just don't like drinking. Besides, if you want to tease me in front of everyone, I'm afraid you will be disappointed."

At this moment, just when the atmosphere between the two was like a powder keg ready to explode, Su Yue's figure came like a breeze.

He appeared between the two of them, like a breath of fresh air in the storm, trying to calm the conflict that was about to break out.

Su Yue sighed softly and said in a soft but powerful voice: "You are all grown up, why are you still fighting like children?"

There was a hint of helplessness in his eyes, but more of it was concern and admonition for the two of them.

He turned to Su Ming, his tone more serious: "Su Ming, don't go too far."

Su Ming's originally tense face relaxed a little after hearing Su Yue's words, but the anger in his eyes had not completely subsided.

Gu Xinliang stood up suddenly, and his body was like a solid barrier, standing steadily beside Su Chenjin. His big hands gently rested on her shoulders, protecting her tightly behind him, trying to isolate her from all possible harm from the outside world.

His eyes were as cold as ice, directed at the two brothers Su Ming and Su Yue opposite him, revealing strong dissatisfaction and warning.

"Humph, since you are so unkind and have no intention of welcoming Xiaojin, then there is no need to continue this dinner."

Gu Xinliang's voice was low and powerful, and every word was like a cold stone, hitting Su Ming and Su Yue's hearts.

He turned to look at Su Chenjin, with a hint of tenderness and apology in his eyes: "Xiaojin, I'm sorry, I didn't expect them to be like this. Let's go, there's no need to waste time and energy on these unworthy people."

Su Chenjin nodded slightly, a hint of gratitude flashing in his eyes.

Gu Xinliang turned around and pulled Su Chenjin to leave.

She followed Gu Xinliang silently. Although her steps were a little staggering, her heart was full of trust and dependence.

When the two were about to disappear from sight, Su Chenjin suddenly turned around and looked at Su Ming and Su Yue.

She stuck out her tongue playfully, a smug smile on her face, showing off her victory to them at the same time.

Gu Xinliang didn't look back, but he could feel Su Chenjin's joy and relaxation.

He also felt relieved.

The three did not return to the apartment immediately, but came to the Jiang University campus.

Night fell quietly, the sky was covered with a deep blue, and stars began to twinkle in the sky.

Under the cover of night, the campus of Jiangnan University gradually took on a different look.

As the lights come on, soft street lamps light up in the night. Their lights interweave together to form faint halos, gently wrapping every corner of the campus.

The campus at this moment seems to be covered with a mysterious veil, completely different from the bustling and lively scene in the daytime.

It is even quieter and deeper in the night, making people want to explore the secrets hidden in the dark.

Chen Fangyu and Su Chenjin walked hand in hand along the campus path.

Their footsteps were light and powerful, and each step made a slight rustling sound on the soft grass.

The two of them were laughing and talking in low voices, sometimes smiling comfortably. Their laughter echoed in the night sky, breaking the tranquility of the night.

Gu Xinliang followed the two of them silently, his eyes moving between Chen Fangyu and Su Chenjin from time to time.

He looked at their intimacy and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart.

The wisteria flowers on campus are at their peak of bloom, competing to bloom and forming a sea of ​​purple flowers.

Each cluster of flowers looks like a carefully crafted work of art, with petals layered over each other like a girl's skirt, swaying gently in the breeze, showing an incomparably graceful posture.

The air is filled with the unique fragrance of wisteria, which is light and slightly sweet, making people feel relaxed and happy.

Chen Fangyu stood in the distance, looking up at the purple ocean, with a gleam of surprise in her eyes.

She seemed to be attracted by the beautiful scenery in the sea of ​​flowers and forgot everything around her.

She took Su Chenjin's hand and said excitedly, "Xiaojin, look at those wisteria flowers. They are so beautiful! Let's go to the flowers and take a look!"

Su Chenjin was infected by Chen Fangyu's enthusiasm and nodded with a smile.

Hand in hand, the two walked quickly towards the wisteria bush.

They shuttled among the sea of ​​flowers, sometimes lowering their heads to smell the fragrance, and sometimes looking up to admire the blooming flowers.

Chen Fangyu carefully placed a variety of fruits on the stone table. The bright colors danced in the moonlight, as if they were nature's palette.

The crystal clear grapes, like purple gems, exude an alluring luster; the golden bananas, with just the right curve, are like a miniature of the moon, lying quietly on the table; and the rosy apples, with skin as smooth as a mirror, can reflect people's thoughts.

In addition to fruits, there were also freshly baked breads on the stone table. The breads were filled with fragrance and the steam was rising. The whole yard seemed to be enveloped by the aroma.

The bread crust is golden and crispy, and the inside is soft and sweet. Every bite is full of rich wheat and milk aroma, making people want to eat one bite after another.

As soon as Gu Xinliang saw the table full of delicious food, his eyes immediately lit up.

He warmly called Su Chenjin over.

"Student Xiaojin, come and see, Dean Chen has prepared so many delicious foods, you can't miss them!" Gu Xinliang said excitedly.

Upon hearing this, Su Chenjin couldn't help but walk over out of curiosity.

When she saw the delicious food on the table, she couldn't help but show a surprised expression.

Those tempting fruits and breads seemed to beckon her, making her unable to resist.

"Wow, this is so rich!" Su Chenjin exclaimed.

"Yes, Dean Chen has put a lot of thought into it." Gu Xinliang said with a smile, "Come and try it, these breads are fresh out of the oven and are still hot."

Chen Fangyu smiled and nodded, "Xiaojin, come quickly!"

As she spoke, Chen Fangyu thought of what happened during dinner. She apologized and said, "I never expected that the brothers of the Su family would be such people. It's really disappointing. If it weren't for Yao Lao's strong recommendation of Su Yue, I wouldn't have taken out such precious time in the evening to receive them."

After hearing this, Gu Xinliang frowned and said indignantly: "We will refuse to receive anyone who bullies Xiaojin! Such people are not worthy of dealing with us."

As Su Chenjin listened to the conversation between the two, a warm feeling surged in his heart and he couldn't help but smile slightly.

Just then, her cell phone suddenly rang. It was Xing Miao from Jiangnan Medicinal Materials calling.

"Hello, Miss Su Chenjin. I am Xing Miao from Jiangnan Medicinal Materials. There were some problems with the batch of goods you had with us during the day. Please come back tomorrow when you have time. We need to communicate with you in person to resolve the issue."

Xing Miao's voice sounded a little serious.

Chen Fangyu happened to be nearby, and suddenly, she heard Su Chenjin's anxious voice. She raised her head, a hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes, and looked in Su Chenjin's direction. She saw Su Chenjin holding the phone tightly, his brows furrowed, obviously dealing with a difficult matter.

"What's wrong, Xiaojin? What happened?" Chen Fangyu asked softly, with concern in her tone.

Su Chenjin sighed and handed the phone to Chen Fangyu, "It's Jiangnan Medicinal Materials calling, saying that there's a problem with our batch of goods."

Chen Fangyu took the phone and her eyes instantly became sharp.

She raised her voice, her tone revealing that there was no room for doubt: "I am Chen Fangyu, and this batch of goods is what I want. Yao Lao personally recommended your company, and I have always believed in the reputation of Jiangnan Medicinal Materials. However, if there is really a problem with the goods, you must give me justice!"

The person on the other end of the phone was obviously intimidated by Chen Fangyu's aura, and the phone fell into silence.

Chen Fangyu did not give the other party a chance to refute. She took a deep breath and said slowly: "I will come with Xiaojin tomorrow to personally check this batch of goods. I hope you can give a satisfactory solution, otherwise, you will bear the consequences yourself."

After saying that, she decisively hung up the phone.
