Love That Extends Life

Chapter 216: Couple in the Shade

Li Mingliang and Guo Yunli got off the bus. The rain had stopped and the sky had cleared up.

When they arrived at Zhongkang Health Care and Wellness Club, Li Mingliang took Guo Yunli to see Manager Wang Jiarui, who agreed with a smile.

"Haha, Brother Li, how can I not be satisfied with the person you found!" Wang Jiarui joked with Li Mingliang with a smile.

"Well, Sister Guo! Let me tell you about the work situation here. If you have any questions, we can talk about it." Wang Jiarui started communicating with Guo Yunli again.

"Manager Wang, then just tell us." Guo Yunli replied with a smile.

"Sister Guo, the cleaners in our club are responsible for cleaning the place. As long as we keep the club clean, it's fine. After all, this is a service club, so hygiene must be the top priority. The cleaners start work at 7 a.m. and finish at 4 p.m., and have Saturdays and Sundays off. They also receive five insurances and one housing fund. By the way, when it's not busy, our people will help clean up. In fact, we used to take turns cleaning up, but sometimes we were too busy, so we plan to hire a cleaner to take charge of cleaning."

Wang Jiarui began to introduce, and Guo Yunli exchanged a few words with Wang Jiarui, and Guo Yunli agreed to be a cleaner.

Wang Jiarui completed the entry procedures for Guo Yunli, and then told her that she only needed to come to work on Monday. After thanking her, Guo Yunli left Zhongkang Health Care and Wellness Club with Li Mingliang.

After leaving the Zhongkang Health Care and Wellness Center, Li Mingliang asked, "How is it, Xiaoli, do you think this place is pretty good?"

"Well, it's really good. Thank you, Brother Li." Guo Yunli replied gratefully.

"That's good. By the way, you have to notify your previous company, so that after you resign, you can officially come to work next week." Li Mingliang said with a smile.

"I know. The job at the chicken farm is temporary. I just need to tell you in the afternoon and it will be done." Guo Yunli was talking when she saw the No. 24 bus coming. She pointed at Li Mingliang and said, "Brother Li, the bus is coming. Let's walk a few steps faster."

"Ah, Xiaoli, there's no need to rush to take the bus. Look, it's almost noon. Let's find a place to eat. It won't be too late to go back after we're full." Li Mingliang held Guo Yunli's hand and wanted to take Guo Yunli to have lunch.

Guo Yunli looked at the time on her watch and it was indeed half past ten, so she nodded in agreement.

Li Mingliang wanted to take Guo Yunli to a restaurant for dinner, but Guo Yunli thought the food was too expensive, so she insisted on eating at a fast food restaurant. So the two of them went to a fast food restaurant.

There were quite a lot of people in the fast food restaurant. The two of them walked around before they found a suitable seat. Li Mingliang pulled out a chair for Guo Yunli and let her sit down.

"Xiao Li, please sit down first. I'll go get some fast food. By the way, what would you like to order?"

"Brother Li, it's up to you."

"Okay then."

Li Mingliang said as he went to the fast food restaurant's pick-up window and started ordering fast food.

After a while, Li Mingliang brought the prepared fast food to the table where Guo Yunli was sitting, and the two began to eat while chatting happily.

After eating fast food, Li Mingliang took Guo Yunli to the nearby Gulin Park.

The two walked side by side on the path in the park, with a breeze occasionally blowing, bringing a hint of coolness. Then they walked into a ginkgo forest, where the sunlight shone through the gaps between the leaves, creating patches of mottled light and shadow.

"It's so beautiful here! I haven't been out for a walk for a long time. I remember when I was a student, I would come here often to play..."

Feeling the beauty of life under the beautiful shade of the trees reminded Guo Yunli of her youth. When she talked about her experiences at that time, it seemed as if they were right in front of her eyes, and she was filled with infinite emotion.

"Well, only when your mind is calm can you experience this wonderful warmth." Li Mingliang also said with deep emotion.

He was young and ignorant, and took the wrong path, so he made one mistake after another, until one day a fortune teller said that a noble person would appear to help him, and he hoped that the noble person would bring him good luck. In fact, Li Mingliang met the noble woman Wu Yanzi, not because Wu Yanzi brought him much good luck, but because of Li Mingliang's mentality. Because of his change in mentality, he had a completely changed change, so the path he took at this time became the right path in the world.

"Brother Li, let's go to the maple forest. I remember it was very beautiful there in autumn."

"Okay, let's go over and take a look." Li Mingliang agreed.

Then, the two of them passed a staircase and walked towards the maple forest. When passing the staircase, Li Mingliang naturally took Guo Yunli's hand.

At this time, Guo Yunli was slightly startled, but she did not break free, but silently accepted Li Mingliang's hand holding. Their fingers were gently intertwined, as if conveying each other's warmth and emotions.

The two walked into the maple forest in a warm and romantic way. The leaves of the maple forest intertwined like a big green net covering the surroundings. Being under the shade of the trees was like standing under a big umbrella. Under the shade of the maple leaves, the surroundings became particularly cool and pleasant, and the air was filled with a fresh breath, which made people feel happy.

However, when they walked into the maple forest, they found that it had become a place for lovers to talk about love. Many couples hugged and kissed here, enjoying their sweet time. Seeing this scene, Guo Yunli's face flushed with shyness. She lowered her head in embarrassment, not daring to look directly at those intimate scenes.

Li Mingliang noticed her reaction and said softly, "Let's find a quiet place to stay for a while." Guo Yunli nodded and followed Li Mingliang to a relatively secluded place deep in the maple forest.

A hidden place is also hidden from others' perspective. Therefore, when the two reached the depths of the maple forest, they discovered that the couples inside were even more passionate and open in their intimate actions, and there were even scenes that were not suitable to be viewed directly.

When Guo Yunli saw the passionate actions of those couples, she turned around and leaned against the tree trunk, then smiled embarrassedly at Li Mingliang.

"Oh, people nowadays are really too open-minded. They treat the public environment as their own back garden. This... is too unrefined." Li Mingliang complained with some dissatisfaction.

Guo Yunli didn't say anything. She just quietly looked at the hand held by Li Mingliang. Her expression seemed to change slowly along with her thoughts. At this time, her face had turned red.

The two stood quietly under the shade of the tree. Occasionally, maple leaves fell, as if adding a warm romance. The two were also silently enjoying the tranquility and warmth of the moment.

Li Mingliang wanted to express his love to Guo Yunli several times, but he felt that he had not bought a house yet and could not give Guo Yunli a warm home. Therefore, he wanted to wait until he bought a house before proposing to Guo Yunli, so he swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
