Chapter 27: Doing Bad Things While Holding Her Blanket

Ruan Yuntang could feel the staring gaze even though he was hiding one meter away.

He wasn't going to hit her, was he?

She swallowed and was wondering if it was too late to regret when Jiang Yubai suddenly walked towards her.

Approaching step by step.

Ruan Yuntang was so scared that he wanted to run away, but when he was about to slip away, someone grabbed his wrist.

"Is there any water?"

She was stunned for a moment, looking at his sweaty face, and quickly took out the drink her uncle had just prepared for her and handed it to him.

Jiang Yubai took it, unscrewed the lid, threw something into his mouth, and then drank half the bottle of drink.

"What is that?" Ruan Yuntang asked curiously.

Jiang Yubai took out a few dimes from his pocket and handed it over, saying lightly, "Medicine."

Ruan Yuntang was embarrassed for a moment, quickly put away the money and shut up angrily.

Look at that sweaty guy, he looks so weak!

The distance was not far, so the two of them did not take a car but walked directly to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Because Ruan Yuntang's information had passed the political review before, there was no need for re-examination and he could directly get the certificate.

After getting the marriage certificate, the two went to the train station together.

It didn't take long from buying the ticket to getting on the bus, but it took quite a bit of time to squeeze in.

Fortunately, she had put most of her things into the space, and the suitcase was only filled with a few pieces of clothes, so it was very light.

When putting her luggage away, Jiang Yubai offered to help her.

Ruan Yuntang waved his hands quickly and easily threw the 28-inch metal box onto the shelf in front of him.

Jiang Yubai looked surprised.

The elderly couple sitting across from them gave Jiang Yubai a strange look and said, "Your wife is really strong. She must have done a lot of work back home."

Ruan Yuntang knew very well that wealth should not be revealed to others. After leaving the Civil Affairs Bureau, she put on a plain old cloth shirt, with no makeup on and no jewelry on, which made her look more like a country woman.

When she met the two old men's pitying eyes, she was still confused. Only Jiang Yubai, who had been condemned for a long time, understood.

So he looked at Ruan Yuntang with cold eyes.

Ruan Yuntang understood immediately. Before he sat down, he took out a bag of egg cakes and handed them over, and said politely to the two elderly people opposite:

"Grandpa, can I change seats with you? My husband and I both get carsick and want a window seat."

Jiang Yubai: ???

The two old people knew at a glance that the young couple was having a conflict, but they were also happy to help the girl.

So the old man immediately stood up and changed seats with Ruan Yuntang, but confiscated the egg cake.

Jiang Yubai glanced at the person who took the initiative to sit opposite him and lowered his eyes lightly.

Along the way, Ruan Yuntang and the old lady chatted animatedly, and the three of them also shared delicious food with each other.

Jiang Yubai sat alone on the side, with his eyes closed, like a sculpture.

During this period, Ruan Yuntang asked the old lady to help pass him food, but he refused to eat a single bite and only ate the dry food he bought himself.

Tired from chatting during the day, Ruan Yuntang slept particularly soundly at night, covered with a pink silk blanket. The two elderly men, who were dressed in ordinary clothes, also wore the same blanket.

Jiang Yubai looked at the girl who was sleeping sweetly opposite him, with a look of deep surprise in his eyes.

How could Ruan Yuntang be so generous? She had once cursed the old vegetable seller for his bad smell.

But now she can chat enthusiastically with two ordinary old people, and even share the silk carpet that Ruan Fangnan brought her from abroad.

He felt that either he was crazy or Ruan Yuntang was crazy.

At this moment, a cold wind blew in from the half-open car window opposite, blowing away the girl's silk blanket.

It landed right on his thigh.

Jiang Yubai frowned and picked up the soft and smooth blanket. Just as he was about to throw it back, a familiar fragrance wafted over.

His hand paused in mid-air, and after hesitating for a few minutes, he stiffly pinched the blanket and smelled it again.

The fragrance was like a good medicine. After it spread throughout my body, my head, which had been aching all day, suddenly felt relieved.

He subconsciously leaned against the backrest, closed his eyes, and fell asleep in the shaking carriage.

In the dream, a soft figure appeared and disappeared, the silk skirt brushed against the skin, the girl sat astride his legs, and her warm breath lingered around his ears.

His body was as tense as a string, and the girl's fingers plucked him flexibly, entering from his collar and moving downwards.

The belt buckle made a "click" sound, his head exploded, and his Adam's apple rolled up and down with difficulty.

The moment his fingertips pressed down on the slender waist, the clanging sound of a train suddenly rang out.

He suddenly opened his eyes and found that the blanket was wrapped around his neck, and his wet breath had wrinkled the fabric.

Jiang Yubai's pupils shrank in disbelief until he heard a girl moaning from the other side. Then he quickly hid the blanket behind his back like a thief.

When he looked up from his seat, the person opposite him simply turned his head, his delicate little face towards the car window, with the back of his head facing him.

Jiang Yubai let out a light breath, but his eyes were filled with a strong anger, as if he wanted to stab himself.

…

After two days and one night, the train arrived at the station.

Ruan Yuntang left a lot of delicious food for the two old people. When waving goodbye, the old man pulled her and whispered:

"I think your husband cares about you. He often looks at you when you sleep, and even picks up the blanket you dropped on the floor..."

"What?" Ruan Yuntang didn't think Jiang Yubai cared about her, but that didn't stop her from being curious.

The old lady was a little embarrassed to speak for a moment.

Thinking of what she saw last night, her face kept reddening.

The old woman was woken up by the cold wind in the middle of the night and happened to see the girl's handsome husband doing that with the girl's sleeping blanket...

Although she didn't do anything specific, she knew who she was. When she saw his flushed face, his gloomy and murderous eyes, and the heavy breathing in the air, she knew what kind of person he was.

That must be a spring dream!

"Anyway, your husband definitely likes you, so stop making trouble." The old lady said earnestly.

“…” Ruan Yuntang smiled awkwardly and said nothing.

But she was still curious about how many things Jiang Yubai had done that caused misunderstandings.

So after walking out of the train station, she couldn't wait to ask:

"How did the blanket I covered myself with last night end up being yours? Where's my blanket?"

Jiang Yubai paused slightly, his body stiffening. After a moment, he regained his composure and said calmly, "Your blanket fell on the floor in the middle of the night and got dirty, so I used mine to cover you."

After a pause, he added, "It's a clean blanket."

Ruan Yuntang was disappointed and asked casually, "Where's my blanket?"

After she asked, she found that the man's whole body suddenly turned cold. When he turned to look at her, his eyes seemed to be holding back some fire.

"You want it even if it's dirty?"

Ruan Yuntang choked up, thinking about the scarcity of resources in this era. She muttered, "If it gets dirty, can't I just wash it?"

"If it gets dirty, I'll help you throw it away." Jiang Yubai turned his face away, his sharp jawline tense. "I'll compensate you for any amount."

Ruan Yuntang waved his hand indifferently, "That's not necessary, I have another one."

Jiang Yubai didn't say anything else, but took out a curled-edge banknote from his pocket and handed it over. "If it's not enough, I'll give you more later."
