He looked so disheveled, and he really didn't want her to see him.

After a moment of silence, he nodded: "Alright then."

Actually, Lu's mother still had concerns: "Zhengting, your legs are fine for walking, but the other injury... well, she's a girl after all." She wondered if Lin Qingyan would be willing to treat her son.

"Mom, let's treat the leg first, we can talk about the rest later."

"Alright, alright, walking is important, let's treat the legs first."

"Mom, don't tell her about my other injury when we get there."

"Are you not going to get treatment?" Mother Lu's eyes widened. "Or are you afraid that Xiao Lin, the educated youth, won't be willing to treat you?"

"Mom, I have my own reasons."

Lu's mother looked at her son and remained silent for a while. Then, as if she had thought of something, she shook her head. Her son was no longer qualified to pursue someone. Perhaps he didn't want to be a burden to the young girl.

"Okay, Mom promises you, Mom won't tell."

After making some preparations, they set off for Mopantun Brigade the next day. Only Lu's mother accompanied them this time, as Lu's father had to stay in Beijing for work.

This was still the Mopantun Brigade, which was still being transported by the army, and they were to be taken all the way to the brigade commander's house.

Grandma Lin sat at the entrance of the clinic and stared blankly for a while as a green jeep drove by.

It seems like she hasn't ridden in a car like this in a long time.

This memory flashed by in an instant, and then she went to call Lin Qingyan: "Girl, girl, look, there's a car! A car has come to the village."

As Lin Qingyan came out of the clinic, she saw a green jeep driving towards the direction of the brigade leader's house.

These jeeps are usually military vehicles. The first person she thought of was Lu Zhengting. But why would he ride in a jeep or drive a jeep back this time?

After all, military vehicles are public property, and the military would not lend them to him if he were visiting relatives.

So, who are the people in this car? What are they doing here?

While she was wondering, Grandma Lin had already rushed out to chase after the car.

"Grandma, Grandma."

Grandma Lin ran too fast; by the time Lin Qingyan called her, she had already chased after her for quite a distance.

"Grandma, Grandma."

The clinic couldn't be left unattended, so Lin Qingyan simply locked the door and went to chase after Grandma Lin.

Grandma Lin quickly caught up with the car and peered through the window.

Lu Zhengting saw Granny Lin chasing the car through the car window and quickly told the driver, Xiao Zhang, to stop the car.

He rolled down the car window and smiled at Grandma Lin: "Grandma, we meet again."

Grandma Lin smiled at him and said, "Young man, you're back."

"Oh." He sat in the car, his upper body straight, and you couldn't tell from the car window that there was anything wrong with his legs.

Grandma Lu also greeted Grandma Lin: "Auntie, do you still recognize me?"

Grandma Lin nodded: "Hello, I recognize you, but I don't have any lucky money for you. Wishing you good fortune!"

"Hahaha." Mrs. Lu laughed. She didn't expect that she could still laugh at this time: "Auntie, you still love to joke and are so funny."

When Granny Lin saw Lin Qingyan approaching, she said, "Our girl is here too, she's over there. Young man, do you want to see her?"

"I."

Lu Zhengting was speechless. Heaven knows he longed to see the girl he had been missing for so long, but now he was also terrified of being seen by her.

Lu's mother glanced at him and noticed the serious and complicated expression on his face. She squeezed his hand and said, "Zhengting, what you have to face will have to be faced sooner or later. Have you forgotten why you came here this time?"

Lu Zhengting looked at Granny Lin: "Granny, I don't want to see her."

Before he recovers, he cannot show any affection for Lin Qingyan; he must hide his feelings well.

"Grandma," Lin Qingyan called from a short distance away, "Who's inside? Is it Comrade Lu?"

"Yes, it's him, but he said he doesn't want to see you."

Grandma Lin nodded and then shook her head at Lin Qingyan, relaying Lu Zhengting's words verbatim to her.

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhengting and his mother almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

Lu Zhengting simply didn't want to reveal his feelings for Lin Qingyan, fearing it would burden her.

Grandma Lin's way of speaking is too straightforward.

Upon hearing Granny Lin's words, Lin Qingyan immediately stopped in her tracks.

A sudden surge of bittersweet emotion welled up inside me, and my throat tightened.

Why did he suddenly stop wanting to see her?

Why?

He seems to have become somewhat distant from her since he returned from the Chinese New Year holiday, and now he doesn't want to see her. Has she done something to annoy him?

Lu's mother stood anxiously by, whispering to Lu Zhengting, "What's wrong with you? Do you really not want to see Lin Zhiqing?"

"I mean, it's okay if we don't meet now."

Fearing that Lin Qingyan might misunderstand, Lu's mother said, "I'll go downstairs and say a few words to Lin Qingyan to explain."

Before Lu's mother could even open the car door, she heard Lin Qingyan call out to her mother-in-law, "Mother-in-law, we should go back now."

"good."

Grandma Lin rushed back to Lin Qingyan's side like a gust of wind. "Girl, aren't you going to see the young man? Oh, by the way, he said he doesn't want to see you."

Lin Qingyan paused again as she took a step: "Mother-in-law, let's go back."

"Little Lin, the educated youth." Aunt Lu called out to Lin Qingyan. Lin Qingyan stopped and turned to look at Aunt Lu: "Auntie."

Seeing that Lin Qingyan was still very polite to her, as if she hadn't been bothered by her son's words at all, Lu's mother wondered if she really didn't mind.
