Chapter 108: Mission Accomplished

By the end of the day, most of the items were sold out.

Su Ruan watched as her cousin, Ma Wei, counted the money with a big smile on his face.

A few minutes before the market was closed, a generous person had stopped by their booth and bought almost everything.

Unfortunately, both Ma Yu Xi and her brother did not recognize this man. They could only conclude that this person came from the nearby town to buy their cherries products.

"This is exciting. It was the first time that we have sold so much during the carnival," Ma Yu Xi could not stop smiling. "Sister Ruan, do you think that Grandpa will give us bonuses after this?"

Su Ruan merely laughed as she continued to tidy up the empty boxes on the shelf.

A few staff from the orchard came over to help them tidy up the place and packed up their stuff.

Ma Wei put the money in his pocket and turned to the girls. "I'm heading back to send the money to Grandpa. Are you two going to stick around?"

"Uh-huh." Ma Yu Xi nodded. She wrapped her arms around Su Ruan's shoulder and smiled. "This was the first time that Sister Ruan will join the carnival. Big brother, I'm going to take Sister Ruan around this place."

Ma Wei glanced at Su Ruan and frowned. "There's going to be many people tonight."

"Cousin brother, I know. I'll be safe." Su Ruan chuckled, wondering why everyone was worried about her. "Besides, Yu Xi will be with me as well."

The frown on Ma Wei's face deepened. As he was a few years older, Ma Wei could still remember the incident where Su Ruan would go hysterical when she visited the town.

Although their family members had said that Su Ruan was getting better now, Ma Wei could not be at ease.

However, he also understood that Su Ruan was already an adult and he could not stop her from doing what she wanted to do.

His gaze shifted to his sister. "Yu Xi, you have to keep an eye on your cousin sister. Don't stay around too late. Remember to return earlier. If something happens, remember to call me. I'll come over as soon as I can."

"I know. I know." Ma Yu Xi rolled her eyes. "Big brother, you are starting to nag a lot. Don't worry. I'll get Sister Ruan back home safely."

The three of them exchanged a few more words. Then, Su Ruan and Ma Yu Xi watched as Ma Wei left the side with a few staff, carrying a few boxes in their hands.

Once they could no longer see Ma Wei's figure, the cousins heaved a breath of relief.

Ma Yu Xi turned to Su Ruan with a playful smile on her face. "Sister Ruan, I help you out this time. Remember to treat me something good."

The corner of her lips began to twitch. However, Su Ruan was glad that she had told Ma Yu Xi about her relationship with Long Fei a few days ago.

Otherwise, it would be hard for her to sneak around.

She was planning to meet up with Long Fei when the sky turned dark and walk around the place. If Ma Yu Xi did not cover for her, it would be difficult for her to find a reason to go out.

"Sister Ruan, where are you going to meet the young master?"

Su Ruan glanced at her phone and sighed. "I will have to wait for him to text me first." She looked up and smiled. "Meanwhile, let's go and walk around this place."

Her eyes twinkled. Ma Yu Xi held Su Ruan's hand and dragged her around the place.

Just as Ma Wei had warned them earlier, the crowd began to build up. Everyone was gathering at the square as they waited for the Old Master Long to show up and for the performance to start.

At the side, there was a funfair where the youngsters head over to have fun.

The atmosphere was lively. After walking around in a bit, Su Ruan had put her meeting with Yu Zhi Yi earlier that day in the back of her mind. Her mood lifted up as she watched everyone around her having fun.

The cousin stopped by a booth and bought some huge and colorful cotton candy.

Just in time, Su Ruan's phone chimed. However, the person who was excited to hear the notification tone was Ma Yu Xi.

"Sister Ruan, quick. Let's see if it was that young master."

Su Ruan giggled at her cousin's reaction. Her eyes flashed when she saw Long Fei's message, telling her that he was waiting for her nearby a bridge.

"Yu Xi, do you know where this bridge is?"

Ma Yu Xi glanced at the phone and nodded. "I know where this is. Sister Ruan, I'll lead you over to the place."

After walking around for five minutes, the cousin finally arrived at the meeting spot. Seeing that there was no one around, Su Ruan took out her phone. However, before she could text him to ask for his whereabouts, Long Fei had suddenly appeared from behind a tree.

"You're here." Su Ruan looked at him in surprise. She was about to walk to his side when she realized that her cousin was with her. Suddenly, Su Ruan felt a little awkward.

She was already an adult. But at this time, she had her cousin send her to meet her date. Su Ruan thought that this feeling was embarrassing. She suddenly felt like a child.

"Su Ruan," Long Fei called her name softly. Then, he turned to her cousin and nodded. "Miss Ma. Hello."

"Young Master Long, hello." Ma Yu Xi alternated her gaze between her cousin and the man. A playful smile appeared on her lips. "I heard that you are going with my cousin for a walk. Then, should I wait for her or will you be sending her home?"

Long Fei glanced at Su Ruan. "I'll send her back home later. Miss Ma, you don't have to worry about it."

"Then... Sister Ruan, since my mission is accomplished, I will leave first."

Su Ruan looked at her cousin with a dumbfounded expression.

What mission accomplished?

Her face turned red and Su Ruan suddenly found out that she did not know how to face Long Fei at this time.

Before Su Ruan could make a complaint, Ma Yu Xi had already escaped.
