Twenty minutes later, Lin Qiqi arrived at the office.
"Wow, Da Fei, this is my first time at your company. It's quite nice."
Lin Chudong smiled, "No one's here, everyone's on holiday. You can look around as you like."
"Da Fei, I want to play the drums. Teach me how to play the drums."
Lin Qiqi sat on the drum stool, holding two small drumsticks. Lin Chudong held her wrists.
"You step on the bass drum with your foot, twice for each beat."
"Dong-ci da-ci dong-ci-ci-ci..."
Under Lin Chudong's guidance, Lin Qiqi also produced a very pleasant drumbeat, her face beaming with excitement.
"This is great! I'm a drummer too. Da Fei, you like drummers the most, right?"
Lin Chudong was taken aback, "Who said that?"
"The news said so. They said you and Su Yulin are a couple." Lin Qiqi pouted.
"The news also said I'm a couple with you."
Lin Qiqi giggled, "They're just talking nonsense, hehe."
After playing around in the rehearsal room for a while, Lin Chudong took her to the car. They went to a supermarket first and prepared a large amount of daily necessities, as well as some sanitary products.
If Lin Chudong were alone, he wouldn't prepare so much. However, the conditions there were difficult, and he had to prepare more for Miss Lin Qiqi.
The two of them got in the car and headed straight for Jiao City, which was three hundred kilometers away.
On the road, Lin Chudong was driving when suddenly a lollipop was shoved into his mouth.
Forced to open his mouth and bite down, Lin Chudong glanced back and saw Lin Qiqi, her face flushed, staring straight ahead.
This lollipop was purely 'imported' and still had that familiar taste, sweet.
Lin Chudong laughed, "Qiqi, you can take a nap if you're tired. It'll take three hours to get there."
"I'm not tired. I want to help you with the navigation so you don't get lost."
Five minutes later, Lin Qiqi had her mouth slightly open and was lying on the chair, sound asleep.
Lin Chudong slowly reclined her seat and covered her with a blanket using one hand.
Suddenly, Lin Qiqi grabbed Lin Chudong's right hand.
He was stunned for a moment, then placed his hand under the blanket, holding her warm, soft little hand.
Lin Chudong took a deep breath, his heart beating a little faster.
This won't do, my Dao heart is starting to falter.
After a long while, Lin Qiqi opened her eyes.
"Da Fei, I'm hungry."
Lin Chudong laughed, "I have food prepared for later."
This girl fell asleep quickly and got hungry just as fast. Lin Chudong was worried she wouldn't eat well, so he prepared a lot of snacks for her.
Lin Qiqi let go of his hand and took out a bag of potato chips from the back, starting to eat them.
"Wow, it's all cornfields here."
Lin Chudong nodded, "Yep, it's the autumn harvest."
Lin Qiqi, a girl from a wealthy family, might never have seen this autumn harvest scene in her life. She was like a curious baby all the way, asking questions and chattering non-stop.
Lin Chudong was very glad he brought her along; otherwise, the trip would have been quite boring.
Finally, the car drove into Jiao City. Lin Qiqi suddenly widened her eyes, pointing at a school and saying.
"Da Fei, this school has the same name as you!"
Da Fei Hope Elementary School!
Lin Chudong said, "Yeah, I'm also the honorary principal."
"Wow, you're amazing."
The car drove into Jiao City Orphanage. A group of children were playing in the yard. Seeing the car enter, they immediately made way, hiding under the wall, looking timid.
Lin Chudong got out of the car and took off his sunglasses.
Instantly, the expressions of these children changed from a little fearful to surprised.
"Uncle Da Fei!"
At once, a group of children, all around four or five years old, ran over and surrounded him.
Lin Chudong couldn't handle their enthusiasm. "Alright, alright, where's Teacher Yan?"
"Teacher Yan! Come out quickly! Uncle Da Fei is here!"
Amidst the calls of the children, a woman in her fifties walked out.
Seeing Da Fei, her face immediately lit up with a smile.
"Chudong is back!"
Lin Chudong quickly went forward.
Teacher Yan's full name was Yan Shujuan. She was Lin Chudong's teacher when he was at the orphanage, a teacher and a mother figure. Now, she was the head of the orphanage.
Lin Qiqi got out of the car and saw the whole courtyard surrounded by people revolving around Da Fei. She was somewhat in a daze.
Da Fei is so charming. Even she, a top idol, is being ignored.
Lin Chudong waved at Lin Qiqi, "Teacher Yan, I brought a friend. This is Lin Qiqi."
Yan Shujuan quickly wiped her hands and shook hands with Lin Qiqi, her face full of surprise.
"This child is so handsome! Our Da Fei is really blessed. I've been telling you to get married for a long time. You're almost thirty and still not married, it really worries me!"
"Qiqi is really pretty…"
Lin Qiqi's cheeks were slightly flushed. She stood obediently beside Da Fei, not bothering to explain, just like a young wife.
Lin Chudong gave gifts and snacks to the children. Then, Yan Shujuan cooked a table full of dishes and had a meal with several village officials.
From beginning to end, no one recognized Lin Qiqi. She sat beside the small dining table, eating quietly, and felt good.
It felt good to not be the center of attention everywhere he went, like he used to be.
Most of the people here were farmers, and few paid attention to the entertainment industry. A top idol was just a pretty girl to them.
The village head, Ma Jingmin, had dark, weathered skin.
"It's good you're back, Chudong. It's harvest time. I'll get you some corn when you go back."
"Okay, thank you, Village Head."
"I'll also kill a couple of chickens for you to take. They're pure, free-range chickens from the countryside, the kind you can't get in the city."
"Thank you, Secretary."
These people were very polite to Lin Chudong. They only knew that he was a big star who had donated an elementary school and a middle school here, and everyone was looking forward to his visit.
Yan Shujuan said, "Chudong, you have several days off for the National Holiday, right? Yao Qiang is coming back tomorrow, so you two brothers will see each other again."
Lin Chudong's expression immediately stiffened, and he said helplessly.
"Should I just avoid him?"
Lin Qiqi put down her chopsticks and asked, "Who is it?"
Yan Shujuan smiled, "He's also from the orphanage. He grew up with Chudong. Those two, they've loved to bicker since they were little."
Lin Chudong said helplessly, "He's very competitive. He just wants to compare himself with me. I'm used to it."
Yan Shujuan said, "This time Yao Qiang is also bringing his girlfriend back. Now that you both have girlfriends, this old woman can finally relax."
Lin Chudong said, "I should still hide, so he doesn't see me later."
Everyone ate a simple country meal, and Lin Qiqi was very satisfied. She had never eaten this kind of rural flavor before.
Yan Shujuan said, "Chudong, your room has always been kept for you. Take Qiqi there. Tomorrow morning, the Education Bureau will be going to the elementary school for inspection, so you can go and take a look too."
"Okay."
Entering the room, the furnishings inside hadn't changed at all.
Lin Qiqi stood at the door, her face instantly turning red.
Because there was only one bed in the room.
Lin Chudong put down his things and did a simple cleaning.
"Qiqi, I'll sleep on the floor, and you take the bed. This room doesn't have its own bathroom. If you need to go, the women's restroom is to the left when you go out."
Lin Qiqi rubbed her hands together anxiously, saying,
"Da Fei, this bed is quite big..."
