The Happy Farmer Wanderer-Chapter 53 Pink Wheat Field_1

In the golden wheat field, the pink of Wu Xingxing sticking up high was like a guiding light, especially eye-catching.

Li Qing watched, his breathing rapid, his entire being filled with an inexplicable excitement.

Wu Xingxing’s briefs were not exactly traditional but nor were they particularly revealing.

Pink triangles with a bit of openwork pattern at the edges.

When she bent over to cut the wheat, her snow-white buttocks and the pink triangle tightly encasing her thighs were fully exposed to Li Qing without any reserve.

Though she was slender and delicate, her thighs were exceptionally plump, looking like little, round hills.

After watching for a while, Li Qing, fearing Han Mei might notice something off, quickly turned and went behind to stack the wheat he had already cut.

Wu Xingxing came bounding over cheerfully.

Her skirt was down now, making her look much more demure and lively.

"Do you need any help?" asked Wu Xingxing.

Having cut for over three hours, Li Qing had thought Wu Xingxing couldn’t possibly hold up, yet there she was, still full of energy.

She was just very sweaty, with strands of hair clinging tightly to her rosy forehead, reminiscent of a beauty emerging from a bath.

Li Qing stole a glance at Han Mei, who was picking up wheat ears not far away.

"Go help my sister-in-law, I’m fine," he suggested.

"I’ll start by stacking up these sheaves for you," said Wu Xingxing, already cheerfully running off to do so.

Li Qing, with no choice, tried to act nonchalant, but he quickened his pace.

He needed to regroup with his sister-in-law soon or trouble could arise.

Wu Xingxing, struggling with a bunch of wheat, came over. As she handed it to Li Qing, she suddenly asked in a low voice, "Do you like pink?"

"Hm?" Li Qing gave a start.

It was over; trouble had come.

It looked good when he was watching, but at that moment, that was truly problematic.

"Pink... It’s okay, what about it?" he feigned ignorance, deliberately saying.

"Is it... pretty?" Wu Xingxing asked softly.

Li Qing coughed lightly and said with feigned severity, "Pretty? I have no idea what you’re talking about."

"You really didn’t see? Shall I show you again?" Wu Xingxing edged closer to Li Qing.

A wave of warm breath hit him, and Li Qing hastily moved some distance away, and bracing himself, he said, "Pretty!"

Wu Xingxing giggled, as delighted as a child.

"Am I pretty too?" she asked further.

"Pretty!" Li Qing said brusquely, "By the way, I think my sister-in-law is calling you."

"Is she?" Wu Xingxing stood on tiptoe to look.

Li Qing had only made up an excuse, not expecting that Han Mei was indeed calling Wu Xingxing.

"So she is. I’ll go over there first, then," Wu Xingxing said with a bend and a giggle before running off.

Li Qing let out a long sigh of relief.

For a moment just now, his heart, fraught with anxiety, had nearly leaped out of his throat.

If Han Mei caught him and Wu Xingxing in any kind of intimate act, he would be utterly doomed.

"Qingzi, I’ll head back first with Miss Wu. It’s too hot today, and it’s not good to let the girl stay in the fields and work with us the whole time. Wrap up the wheat stacks, and then you should rest early. I’ll go back to cook," Han Mei walked over and said.

"Sister-in-law, isn’t she going back to Hu Wei’s house?" Li Qing asked in surprise.

Wiping her sweat, Han Mei gave Li Qing a sideways glance, reproaching, "Listen to yourself. The girl has been helping us all morning, and you just want her to leave like that? A meal is the least we owe her."

"No, I mean, after all, she is Hu Wei’s blind date," Li Qing couldn’t help feeling overwhelmed.

Wu Xingxing had gone to her sister-in-law’s house, who knew what might happen.

"It’s fine, she’s at my place, not yours," Han Mei said unequivocally, "Go back and wash up, then come over early for dinner."

"Alright," Li Qing could only agree. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

After Han Mei and Wu Xingxing left, Li Qing neatly stacked the hay and cleared the stray wheat ears from the field before going home to comfortably take a cold shower. Only then did he head to Han Mei’s house.

From the completely open kitchen, wafts of heartwarming smoke and the rich aroma of cooking filled the air.

It seemed like sister-in-law was stewing chicken today.

Wu Xingxing had changed into a pair of short sleeves and shorts and was tending the fire in the kitchen.

The clothes looked a bit familiar to Li Qing; they seemed like sister-in-law’s.

Han Mei’s shorts, on Wu Xingxing’s petite frame, appeared a bit loose.

When she sat down to handle the fire, her delicate waist and a hint of her pink underwear peeked out.

Li Qing sneaked a couple of glances, then averted his eyes, not daring to look anymore.

Peeking at another girl under sister-in-law’s watchful eye was akin to playing with fire.

"Qingzi, hurry and clean up the table, it’s almost time for dinner."

Li Qing promptly replied, moving the table out to the courtyard.

Wu Xingxing, like a swaying aquamarine lotus, came out of the kitchen with a faint smile, carrying a dish.

"Your sister-in-law’s cooking is really good," she said with a laugh.

Li Qing didn’t dare to banter too much and replied, "You have a seat, I’ll get the food."

"Getting shy now?" Wu Xingxing teased with a smile.

Li Qing turned and scooted away, heading straight into the kitchen.

In his sister-in-law’s house, even if he had ten times the courage, he wouldn’t dare to get too close to Wu Xingxing.

Fortunately, during the meal, Wu Xingxing was fairly well-behaved, not showing off her petite and exquisite body to Li Qing like she did in the wheat field, nor did she verbally flirt with him.

The two women of about the same age were chatting away happily, while Li Qing just focused on shoveling rice into his mouth.

After the meal, Li Qing volunteered to wash the dishes, really just to find an excuse to hide away.

Luckily, just at that time, Yu Lan called. Li Qing faintly heard her asking where Xingxing was.

Wu Xingxing briefly responded, saying she would be back soon.

This secretly relieved Li Qing.

It was better for the living ancestor to hurry back; if she stayed any longer, he truly worried something untoward might happen.

Wu Xingxing entered the kitchen with her hands behind her back, "Little rascal, I’m heading back now."

"Hm hm," Li Qing replied in a muffled voice while washing the dishes.

"Bottled-up boy, still shy, huh? Since you like pink, I won’t change right now, is that okay?" she chuckled.

Li Qing felt a headache coming on, didn’t it bother her to wear that for too long?

"Actually, I like wearing nothing at all!" he quickly glanced over at Han Mei in the courtyard and said nastily.

Wu Xingxing, who had only been teasing Li Qing, didn’t expect such a response, and her cheeks flushed slightly.

"Is that so? Then one day I won’t wear anything. Whether you’ll notice, that’s up to your skills," she said.

Wu Xingxing seemingly forced the bravado, her face blushing as she said this and quickly left.

But this still sent Li Qing’s blood racing, and he couldn’t help but let his thoughts wander.

She wouldn’t dare to really wear nothing... would she?
