Nie Can put out the cigarette in his hand and looked at her faintly. Jiang Yi immediately tensed up and prepared to start the race.

"Come up."

"I can--"

His gaze was as real as substance, and his powerful aura was overwhelming her, as if if she refused again, her body would be pierced with holes.

Jiang Yi sat on it.

With a click, the car door locked.

Every nerve in Jiang Yi's body from head to toes was stretched tightly.

"What? Are you still afraid of me?" He chuckled, his voice so deep and low that it made one's ears pregnant. "Then you have to overcome it."

"Ah?" Jiang Yi hadn't reacted yet. His face suddenly approached her. She was so scared that she leaned towards the door and put her hands on his chest. "No."

Nie Can helped her fasten her seat belt and asked jokingly, "What do you think I'm going to do?"

Jiang Yi: “……!!”

The refreshing breath from his body enveloped her, causing her heart to beat faster for no reason. She felt like she would die if she stayed there for another second. "Actually—"

Nie Can raised his hand and pinched her face, "How many meals do you still owe me, five?"

Jiang Yi's eyes were motionless! Like fish on a chopping board, her soul had left and returned after a long while. "What? Five meals! Is it five meals now?"

"Want me to calculate it for you? It may be more than that."

"No, no, but today is not convenient for me. Can we do it another day?"

"tonight?"

His dark and deep eyes locked onto her, and the air instantly became thick. They were clearly just having a meal, so why did he make it feel different?

"Isn't tonight today?" Jiang Yi's heart was beating like a train, bang bang bang. How should she put it? This was actually a beautiful misunderstanding.

But at this moment, Jiang Yi felt that if she spoke out, the consequences might not be very good, and she felt that she would be strangled to death by him.

"That's fine," she heard herself say.

She would have to explain it to him then.

The corners of his mouth curled up, his expression was somewhat happy, "Go to my place."

Jiang Yi: “Ah?”

"Cook."

Jiang Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing her like this, Nie Can laughed. The next second, he grabbed her arm and pulled her a little closer, and quickly kissed her on the face with his lips.

Jiang Yi was completely stunned. She didn't know if it was because of the dry weather, but she just felt a popping sensation on her face, and a little electric current burned her and made her shiver.

As soon as he let go, she almost hit the car door.

Nie Can started the car as if nothing had happened, with a blank expression and a sanctimonious look on his face, but his voice was a little hoarse, "Hold on tight."

With a "buzz" sound, the car turned a corner. Jiang Yi's head was buzzing louder than the car's sound, and she felt dizzy.

Oh my god, he he he he, he kissed her!

What an astonishing experience this was.

Even when she returned to the teahouse, her mind was still thundering.

"Sister Jiang, why is your face so red?" Zheng Lili looked at the car driving away and asked with a gossipy look on her face.

Jiang Yi covered her face, "The sun is too hot."

Headache.

There is no doubt that she has no intention of dating for the time being.

How can we come up with a solution that has the best of both worlds, one that can make things clear without hurting feelings, so that we can all still be friends afterwards.

The key is to figure out what his mentality is.

Do you really want to date her?

Or is it just a matter of mutual consent between adults?

Jiang Yi has experienced the afterlife. Although she has not eaten much pork, she has seen pigs run. In the afterlife, there are many men who do "four no's": no commitment, no initiative, no refusal, and no responsibility.

If it's the latter, then it's fine, we're all adults, we can just say it's a misunderstanding. If it's the former...

Jiang Yi couldn't understand why it could be the former. The probability was as low as winning the lottery.

She is a divorced woman with a child. Although Xiaoguozi is her treasure, he is just a burden in the eyes of the world. What does he like about her?

Jiang Yi recalled what Nie Can said that night about trying to persuade her mother, and it didn't seem like a joke.

Just when she was thinking about her mother, her mother came.

Xu Cuilian came running, panting. Jiang Yi was afraid that she would collapse in the next second. "Mom, what happened? Why are you so anxious?"

"Just now, the people at the fan factory said that you, your elder brother, was injured."

"ah?!"

When Jiang Yi and her sister-in-law arrived at the fan factory, her brother had already walked out of the factory gate, being supported by Jiang Daliu. There was a big bump on his forehead, and he looked like a light bulb. He walked with one hand on his waist.

Fortunately, I can still walk.

They both breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Yi asked anxiously, "Brother, what's going on?"

Jiang Yang frowned, "Let's go, don't stay here, they will come out soon."

Jiang Yi was startled and looked inside the fan factory. There seemed to be a lot of people, making a lot of noise. "I hope there won't be a riot."

"Almost." Jiang Daliu looked as if he was still frightened.

"What happened?" The sister-in-law went to help her husband.

Jiang Yang looked a little frustrated. "The sales director of our fan factory took the payment for a batch of goods and ran away with the money. Now everyone in the factory knows about it. The workers surrounded the office and wanted to ask the factory director for their wages because the manager was a relative of the factory director. The factory director said he was also a relative of the factory director, but everyone didn't believe him and a conflict broke out. I went up to persuade him, and some bastard threw a fan base at me and hit me. Later, someone pushed me on the waist and I sprained it."

Jiang Yi: “…” Brother was a soldier after all, how could he be so useless?

Suddenly I thought of that guy who could do dozens of pull-ups easily... Stop, "Brother, do you feel dizzy and nauseous? Do you want to go to the hospital? I'm afraid you might have a concussion."

"No, it's fine. My waist just hurts a little."

The sister-in-law looked over and suddenly her face turned red. She felt distressed and said, "Hurry up, go back and help you roll the eggs."

The eldest brother was riding on the sister-in-law's bicycle, and Jiang Yi was riding Jiang Daliu.

Jiang Daliu felt embarrassed and said, "Let me ride it."

"That's fine." Of course, sitting is less tiring.

Jiang Daliu asked: "Are you really divorced?"

"Pearls aren't that real."

Jiang Daliu thought secretly: Huh? Then don't I still have a chance?

Unfortunately, I am too poor and now I am facing unemployment. I can’t even think about it. “Oh.”

"So, this is why you haven't paid our salaries?" Jiang Yi asked.

"It was originally a low season for sales, and the factory was in a semi-shutdown state," Jiang Daliu said. "Now something like this has happened, and the factory is definitely going to close down. Before we came out, the factory director had already reported it to his superiors and resigned."

Without a leader, things will become even more chaotic.

"I guess more than 200 people in the factory won't be able to sleep tonight," said Jiang Yang, who was riding a bicycle nearby.

Jiang Yi was also worried about them. Sure enough, the fan factory had come to this point, facing bankruptcy just like in the previous life, and the eldest brother would soon go to Pengcheng for the first time.

Do I want to continue on this path in my life?
