Chapter 71: Chapter 71: Unexpected Situation

What caught her eye was a group photo of four people. Ling Qianjun stood at the very front; he was the one holding the phone.

A smile graced his lips, and his eyes sparkled with light—he was clearly very happy.

Behind him stood three people: two teenagers and someone who looked like his older sister. No, was it Ling Qianjun’s mother?

Looking at this photo, one could easily guess it was a portrait of Ling Qianjun’s family.

However, Hua Buwan hadn’t expected his mother to be so young. She looked just like Ling Qianjun’s older sister.

His younger brother and sister were both adorable, and the poses they struck showed off their lively personalities.

"This is my family. My mother, younger brother, and younger sister," Ling Qianjun introduced from beside her, seeing Hua Buwan looking at the photo.

"Mhm, I can tell. Your siblings are very cute, and your mother is beautiful and very young." Hua Buwan thought they were a family of natural beauties; presumably, Ling Qianjun’s father was also very handsome.

Hearing his family being praised, the smile on Ling Qianjun’s lips grew even more radiant.

Hua Buwan looked at it for a while longer, etching their appearances into her mind before withdrawing her gaze.

Looking at them, many items flashed through Hua Buwan’s mind that she felt would suit them perfectly. Once she had some free time, she would place an order! She’d gift everything to them! They were sure to love it!

Ling Qianjun put away his phone and couldn’t help but chat with Hua Buwan. "Buwan, you were right before. Smartphones really are addictive. Yesterday, I played a TV drama for my family, and they were completely hooked, unable to pull themselves away."

"Huh? Hahaha." Hua Buwan had guessed they would react this way. The ancestors had never been exposed to videos before, let alone something as dramatic as a TV series.

"They’ll get used to it. You can let them watch just one or two episodes a day, and then rest after." Hua Buwan calculated the runtime of a TV episode; watching two at most was just about right.

"Alright," Ling Qianjun agreed.

Only then did Hua Buwan notice that Ling Qianjun’s dark circles were also very heavy. "Are you deeply hooked on TV dramas too? Didn’t sleep well?"

Ling Qianjun noticed Hua Buwan staring at his eyes and realized she was looking at the dark bruises under them. He immediately explained, "No. I just couldn’t fall asleep.

"We slept outside, and there were a lot of mosquitoes," he added guiltily.

He didn’t want to tell Hua Buwan about the sleep-talking his family had done last night; he still needed to save some face for them.

"Mosquitoes?" Hua Buwan carefully examined Ling Qianjun’s face. There was indeed a mosquito bite on his forehead. She walked over to a corner of the shelf, pulled out two 250ml bottles of floral water, and handed them to him.

"Try this. Spray it on your clothes to keep the mosquitoes away.

"It’s fine even if you spray it on your skin, but try not to get it in your eyes, nose, or mouth. And it’s definitely not for drinking.

"Here, let me teach you how to spray it. Just press here."

Hua Buwan stuffed one of the bottles of floral water into Ling Qianjun’s hand, having him follow her example.

Ling Qianjun got the hang of it right away. The floral scent from the spray lingered around the two of them, significantly dispersing the smell of luosifen in the room.

"Put this away and take it with you to use," Hua Buwan said. She checked the time; Chen Jingjing would be arriving soon.

She then turned to Ling Qianjun. "My friend is about to get here."

"Mhm. I’ll head back first then, and come over again tonight." Ling Qianjun put away the floral water and was just about to turn toward the back door.

Unexpectedly, at that moment, an automated voice chimed "WELCOME" from the supermarket entrance.

Someone had come in!
