In her past life, she was blind and foolish, rejecting the man who doted on her, ultimately leading to the ruin of her family and being pushed off a cliff.
Reborn before her divorce, Jiang Ji...
Jiang Jinxiu sat sideways on the back of the bicycle, while Gu Xichen pedaled hard.
As I rode along, everyone who saw me turned their heads to look.
They are a perfect match.
In front of everyone, the two behaved themselves well. Jiang Jinxiu also sat sideways in the back seat of the car, politely greeting people.
But as soon as she was out of sight of the crowd, her weak little hands began to fidget.
He would touch this place from time to time, and pinch that place from time to time.
Her little mouth kept babbling away.
"Xichen, it feels so comfortable here."
"Xichen, this place is so sturdy..."
"Xichen, you're amazing..."
...
After all that, Gu Xichen was blushing and almost rode into the ditch several times.
This caused Jiang Jinxiu to gasp in surprise, and she hugged his strong waist tightly again and again.
But I have to say, this little woman is really bold.
But in the blink of an eye, they started flirting again.
Gu Xichen blushed even more.
"Wife, stop making a fuss."
"I'm not making a scene. I'm just expressing my truest feelings."
Gu Xichen: "..."
Finally, Gu Xichen couldn't concentrate on riding his bike anymore, so he simply stopped, grabbed the little woman with one hand, and lifted her onto the crossbar in front of him.
Holding the petite woman in his arms, Jiang Jinxiu finally calmed down a bit.
"Xichen, don't you like how I treated you?"
"Honey, are you doing this on purpose?"
Jiang Jinxiu shook her head with a charming laugh.
Gu Xichen didn't believe her.
He leaned closer, whispered in her ear, "Honey, calm down. I'll do whatever you want tonight, okay? But don't faint again halfway through, okay?"
The last nasal sound was drawn out for a very long time.
Now it was Jiang Jinxiu's turn to blush.
She thought about what would happen that night, and finally, she became a little scared.
"You better watch yourself, or else..."
"Wife, don't you believe me?"
...
The two rode their bikes, playfully bickering, and arrived in town after 2 p.m.
However, the post office was open for business, so Gu Xichen took Jiang Jinxiu there before leaving to take care of his own business.
The two agreed to meet at the village entrance at five o'clock to go back together.
Jiang Jinxiu mailed the letter and, after confirming that she had no packages, rode her bicycle away again.
She secretly found a secluded spot, stored the bicycle in her spatial storage, and changed back into the Ugly Duckling outfit.
That's right, today is the delivery date she and Wu Wen agreed upon.
The original supplies in the space, plus what she grew herself, have now piled up quite a bit.
We've already received many batches of fruit, especially oranges.
Although they wouldn't break if kept in the space, Jiang Jinxiu felt it would be more practical to take them out and exchange them for money.
She went to the house where she used to keep her things and took them out of the space to organize them.
Then they heard some unusual noises outside.
It was too late for her to put her things away; the person had already appeared in front of her.
There were five people, three of whom were quite tall, all appearing to be over 1.8 meters tall, while the leader was a rather short and stout man.
The man was probably around 1.7 meters tall.
Jiang Jinxiu had seen this man before; he was one of Wu Wen's men, and I think his name was Fatty.
Because he was the fattest among Wu Wen and his group, everyone called him that.
Jiang Jinxiu usually puts the goods away herself before calling Wu Wen and the others to come and collect them.
This was to prevent her secret from being discovered.
However, this time, she had just put the goods away when someone arrived, which was a bit strange.
Jiang Jinxiu suppressed the strange feeling in her heart and smiled at the fat man in front of her: "Brother Fatty, why did you come so quickly today? I haven't gone to call you yet."
The fat man replied with a smile, "I was just worried that you'd get tired running around like that, girl, in this sweltering heat."
As he spoke, he also sized up Jiang Jinxiu.
The look in his eyes was something Jiang Jinxiu had never seen before.
"Fatty, why didn't Mosquito and the others come this time?"
"They went to pick up other goods and asked me to pick up yours. We're so familiar with each other, you're not afraid of me, are you?"
Jiang Jinxiu thought to herself, "I'm not afraid of you as a person, I'm afraid of you double-crossing me."
During their conversation, the men behind the fat man kept looking around, their eyes filled with calculation.
"Hey girl, we've been guarding the door the whole time, and we haven't seen you carrying anything in. Where did all this stuff come from?"
The fat man voiced the question that had been lingering in his mind.
Actually, the transactions with this girl had been going very smoothly.
Her goods are also very good.
He had tried asking the mosquitoes to intercept the girl's supply so that they could profit more.
However, Mosquito and the others were all from the military and none of them wanted to do it.
They also say that every profession has its own rules.
Pah!
Rules are made by people.
This time, he intercepted the girl's supply, so he no longer has to follow them around like a dog.
Let them just watch themselves get rich, hahaha.
Jiang Jinxiu's heart skipped a beat when she heard his question. She quickly realized that these people had been lying in wait outside for a long time.
They came prepared.
I just don't know if they saw me take the things out.
Is this a case of double-crossing? Didn't Mosquito Bro say he wouldn't investigate her?
Has the decision been changed, or...?
Regardless of the possibility, she needs to find a way to get out of this situation.
"Meow meow meow..." Master, they didn't see you take anything out. I'm sorry, Master, I only lowered my guard because I recognized the fat man and thought he was a good person.
Jiang Jinxiu felt relieved when she heard that she had not been discovered.
While calming the orange down and encouraging it to launch a sneak attack, she and the fat man stalled for time, looking for a breakthrough.
“How can we in this line of work only have one path? Right, Fatty?” Jiang Jinxiu said with a laugh.
Her words drew everyone's attention to her.
"Hey girl, what connections do you have? Tell me, and I'll protect you from now on," said another man who was about the same height as the fat man.
The man had dark skin, shifty eyes, and small, single-lidded eyes that were constantly darting around.
He hasn't stopped since he walked in, his eyes filled with malicious intent.
"Brother Fatty, who is he?" Jiang Jinxiu asked with a curious look.
"He's a new member who just joined us. So are the others."
As he spoke, he pointed to the other people who had come with him.
The three taller men had already walked over to Jiang Jinxiu's belongings and were inspecting the contents.
He nodded with satisfaction as he smelled it, his eyes shining.
When I came across the fruit, I grabbed it and started biting into it; I ate almost every kind.
Jiang Jinxiu frowned as she watched.
"Fatty, your brothers..."
Before the fat man could answer, one of the men, who was eating a mango, seemed to know what she wanted to say and said directly, "Young lady, we have to taste these fruits to know if they taste good and if they can be sold, right?"
