Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 1244: He Came from the Horizon

The lady boss burst out laughing.

Gu Qiaoqiao teased along, "Yeah, switching to one thousand yuan worth of coins would definitely hit people like a ton of bricks."

"Actually, if you’ve got money, you don’t need to throw it; just place a bundle of cash on the table, whose eyes wouldn’t light up? Whether educated or not, earning money through your own skill is remarkable."

As he said this, Chu Chengfeng took out his business card from his pocket, clearly delighted by the beef noodles he had just eaten.

He handed the business card to the lady boss, smiling, "If you wish to open a shop in the city someday, give me a call. Maybe I can help you."

Gu Qiaoqiao was stunned; she hadn’t expected Chu Chengfeng to be so generous, daring to say such things with someone he had just met.

However, upon reflection, given Chu Chengfeng’s capability, this might just be a minor issue for him.

But for the lady boss, it was a matter of great importance.

Gu Qiaoqiao thought the lady boss would be overjoyed to thank Chu Chengfeng, but instead, she quickly pushed the card back and stammered, "Y-y-young man, I know... you mean well, but I will never go to the city in my lifetime; I appreciate your kindness."

"Never go to the city, why?" Chu Chengfeng asked in surprise.

"It’s nothing, I don’t have much skill or education; going to the city would only bring shame to my family. I’m doing well here."

It’s that sentence again!

Chu Chengfeng and Gu Qiaoqiao exchanged a glance but didn’t insist.

Everyone has their difficulties and thoughts, and such matters can’t be forced.

Nevertheless, Chu Chengfeng still pushed the card towards her, chuckling, "Lady boss, if you ever change your mind, you can call me. There’s nothing awkward about it, and handing out business cards is very normal nowadays..."

Finally, he took out his wallet, which held many, and said with a smile, "Look lady boss, these will all be given out in the future, so you shouldn’t feel any burden."

Oh, so that’s how it is.

The lady boss finally relaxed, took the card carefully, and said with a smile, "Thank you, young man."

Gu Qiaoqiao took out six fifty-cent notes from her purse, exactly the price for three bowls of noodles, and placed it in front of the lady boss, saying, "We’ll come back here to eat when we return."

Yet the lady boss quickly took out two fifty-cent notes and handed them back to Gu Qiaoqiao, hastily saying, "I really like you two young people; I won’t take money for this beef noodle."

Chu Chengfeng stood up, "Lady boss, you give generous portions of beef, and it’s delicious too. In the Imperial Capital, this would easily cost one yuan and fifty cents, besides, who eats without paying?"

Gu Qiaoqiao also stood up and slung the bag placed beside the stool over her shoulder, offering a silent smile to the lady boss.

The lady boss thought for a moment and accepted the money; although her shop had only been open for a year, she learned quite a lot, and she knew that the young couple were wealthy individuals.

What’s more, there was a car outside; young people who could drive such a car nowadays were certainly from affluent families.

So she gratefully took the money.

Then she saw the two young people out of the noodle shop.

Outside, Gu Qiaoqiao stretched a little, then got into the car.

Chu Chengfeng started the car and continued driving toward their destination.

Gu Qiaoqiao looked back and saw the lady boss standing at the entrance, gazing at the direction they were heading. She was too far to discern her expression.

But inwardly, she wondered, although culture is good for running a noodle shop, who says you can’t start a business without it?

How could it be shameful?

In this era, not everyone is a college graduate.

Throughout her life, Gu Qiaoqiao had never felt inferior because of her education.

As inferiority doesn’t solve anything.

Family members?

No idea who these family members are.

Perhaps her husband, perhaps her children, but that’s the lady boss’s concern.

Gu Qiaoqiao gently shook her head and gazed ahead, above them, the sun was high, and the golden rays danced joyfully over the fields by the roadside, spinning a plethora of colorful halos.

Even as the scenery whizzed by, there was a profusion of trumpet flowers blooming wildly by the roadside.

This area remained an undeveloped natural land.

Everything looked exceedingly pleasing to the eye.

After a while, Chu Chengfeng spoke up, "Sis, we’ve got another two hours before we arrive; you should take a nap if you feel tired."

Gu Qiaoqiao shook her head, "No worries, I’m not tired; everything here feels so fresh since it’s my first time in this area."

Even though Chu Chengfeng wasn’t an outsider, driving was taxing.

She wouldn’t dare just snooze off.

Besides, she wasn’t feeling sleepy.

Then, at a junction, Chu Chengfeng’s car turned onto the Yellow Sand Road ahead.

It wasn’t the paved road anymore.

The Yellow Sand Road was wide enough for two cars to pass side-by-side, and it was smooth barring the big clouds of dust kicked up while driving.

Perhaps due to the lack of rain in recent days, the air was excessively dry.

This direction should be the Northwest of the Imperial Capital.

The sky appeared profoundly endless, a deep blue with strands of white clouds floating like sheer gauze draped across it.

Almost like ripples over water.

A bit like the surface of the ocean.

These were scenes entirely different from those in the Imperial Capital.

Gu Qiaoqiao’s grasp of geographical knowledge was somewhat limited, and it didn’t match with the mental map in her head, so she quit pondering over it.

In any case, at a point along the road, someone would be waiting for her.

Two hours later, Chu Chengfeng pulled over, and Gu Qiaoqiao opened the car door, standing on the Yellow Sand Road.

To the right of the car was a lush grove of poplar trees.

And ahead of the car was a green grassland.

Gu Qiaoqiao stared in amazement.

The grassland was vividly green, as if an Immortal had woven it into a green carpet.

Various wildflowers popped up like stars, here in bunches and there in clusters, basking in the afternoon sunlight scattered over the green grassland.

How beautiful!

Before Gu Qiaoqiao could collect her thoughts, she heard Chu Chengfeng beside her shouting excitedly, "Sis, Ah Ze is here!"

Gu Qiaoqiao’s heart throbbed, and she focused her gaze!

A figure appeared on the horizon where the grassland met the sky.

A moment later, she saw a tall chestnut horse, seeming to soar from beneath a distant sky.

Under the afternoon sun, it looked like a red lightning bolt.

On the horse was a handsome young man, wearing a white shirt and black riding pants, with a face full of smiles.

Galloping over the emerald grassland, through the star-like flower clusters, racing towards her standing spot...

Instantly, Gu Qiaoqiao felt completely dazed!
