Chen Ruixue devoured the two large bowls of noodles in the pot in a whirlwind, then leaned back on the sofa, patting her round belly with satisfaction.

Not ladylike at all.

Jiang Tiecheng shook his head as he looked at her. This little girl didn't maintain any image in front of him.

But why does he find this girl so pleasing to the eye?

Perhaps because she opened her heart, the girl who was originally just pretty and cute in her mind now had an extra layer of filter on her.

Perhaps there's a reason why I was so pathetic in my past life; I wasn't as brave as I am in this one.

If I had been able to speak openly about everything earlier, and to boldly make choices for myself, perhaps I wouldn't have died such a pathetic death as in my previous life.

Sure enough, a small change can change a lot of things.

Chen Ruixue ate and drank her fill.

The girl couldn't stay in Jiang Tiecheng's courtyard, and seeing that it was getting late, she had no choice but to slowly and reluctantly prepare to leave.

"Brother Jiang, I'm going back now. I'll come see you again next week when I have time off."

But I'll buy pork belly then.

You make braised pork, and I miss your braised pork.

This girl can't cook; that's a real weakness.

"Alright, you don't need to buy braised pork. I have sliced ​​pork here. I'll buy it when I come over, and you can just come and eat it."

Jiang Tiecheng pushed her bicycle out.

Chen Ruixue followed him excitedly.

"Brother Jiang, where are you going?"

The question sounded a bit guilty, almost like trying to hide something obvious.

"I'll take you."

"You'll take me?"

Don't bother seeing me off. It's quite far from our textile factory; it takes about 40 minutes by bicycle.

If you take me there and then come back yourself, it will be too late.

Although Chen Ruixue hoped that Jiang Tiecheng would take her home, she couldn't bear to see him so tired.

"It's so late, it's not safe for a girl to walk alone, let me take you."

Jiang Tiecheng took the opportunity to push out his bicycle and lock the gate.

He patted the bicycle and said,

Let's go.

Chen Ruixue was a little disappointed.

Jiang Tiecheng also rode a bicycle, so I couldn't sit behind him anymore; it seemed like that intimate treatment was gone.

I kind of regret riding my bicycle today. I know I should never ride a bicycle again.

Even if it's a bit tiring and involves a longer journey by car, Jiang Tiecheng will be able to have close contact with her the next time he takes her.

Seeing the girl riding her bicycle with a displeased expression, Jiang Tiecheng had no idea what was wrong with her.

Fortunately, the girl's emotions came and went quickly, and in no time she started chirping like a little sparrow.

Jiang Tiecheng used to find this girl annoying, but now, for some reason, he heard her asking all sorts of questions.

I described even the smallest things to myself, and suddenly I felt a sense of warmth.

Suddenly Chen Ruixue asked,

"What brings Comrade Xiao Qi, who came with Director Chen today, here?"

Jiang Tiecheng couldn't help but smile when he thought of Qi Yuhua.

"Comrade Xiao Qi came with their bureau chief."

Why did their bureau chief send Comrade Xiao Qi to see you?

"Men and women shouldn't have physical contact; shouldn't you be accompanied by a male companion?"

Chen Ruixue was a little sullen. Qi Yuhua was prettier than her, and the two had different styles.

Qi Yuhua is the kind of icy beauty, and she truly is a beauty.

She's the kind of beauty with a mature, sophisticated aura.

However, Chen Ruixue was at a slight disadvantage. Chen Ruixue is a cute and adorable girl, very pretty, and has a great figure, but the two have completely different styles.

This is also why Chen Ruixue is very worried; she is afraid that Jiang Tiecheng might have different feelings towards Qi Yuhua.

Jiang Tiecheng is currently single, so I can try to win him over. If Jiang Tiecheng really has someone he likes, then it will be too difficult.

Moreover, I couldn't bring myself to do something like stealing someone else's love.

"You're overthinking it. Comrade Xiao Qi came here specifically to thank me for saving her brother last time."

Besides, Comrade Xiao Qi saved my life.

Jiang Tiecheng didn't know why he didn't hide it. Although the life-saving grace was from a previous life, he said it so vaguely.

This naturally made Chen Ruixue quite happy for a moment.

Does Jiang Tiecheng's willingness to explain his relationship with Qi Yuhua prove that their relationship has progressed further?

The two rode all the way to the textile factory. When they arrived at the factory gate, Jiang Tiecheng waved to Chen Ruixue.

"Let's go inside quickly. It's getting late."

Chen Ruixue was a little reluctant to leave.

However, she knew that her relationship with Jiang Tiecheng had improved, but achieving her goal was still a long and arduous journey.

He waved and was about to push the cart into the factory gate.

This is the time when people get off their night shifts.

Just then, I heard that particularly annoying sound.

He Junsheng had been waiting here for almost three hours.

I finally spotted Chen Ruixue by the wall near the entrance, but then I unexpectedly saw someone else I didn't want to see.

"Ruixue, I've been waiting for you for ages. You just got back?"

He sat down and walked out from under the wall, handing over the insulated lunchbox he was holding.

"The cafeteria is serving dumplings today, and you didn't come back to get your food, so I got this especially for you."

Today's dumplings are beef.
