Zhang Yuanli said with a wry smile, "You'd better make Dahei let go quickly, or my only good pair of pants will be ruined."
Guan Yuxi called Dahei back.
"Leng Lie was worried about you being alone, so he asked me to move in with him while he was away."
He already told Uncle Leng, didn't you know?
Zhang Yuanli glanced down at his trouser leg.
Fortunately, the big black dog spared its breath.
Guan Yuxi was speechless. "Then why didn't you answer sooner?"
Given the big black dog's temper, if it hadn't recognized him, it probably wouldn't have been as simple as just biting through his pants.
"I want to too, but your man says I'm not allowed to appear in front of you unless absolutely necessary!"
Zhang Yuanli was helpless.
Leng Lie is incredibly stingy.
He and Guan Yuxi clearly grew up together since they were little.
Now, however, he glares at me even if I say just a few words.
However, when he went out, the first thing he thought of was having Guan Yuxi come and keep him company.
It's clear that he trusts himself.
But does this mean he doesn't take him seriously?
Did he know that Guan Yuxi wouldn't be interested in him?
"By the way, why are you so affectionate with those brothers, Guo Tai, Tai Min, and An Ren, but you call me by my name?"
Zhang Yuanli was somewhat unconvinced.
Guan Yuxi yawned, too lazy to pay attention to him, "If there's nothing else, go back to sleep."
It's scary that they don't even bring a torch at night.
After walking a distance, I saw him still standing in the same spot.
Guan Yuxi shone the flashlight on him and said, "Alright, hurry back, be careful not to fall into the ditch."
"And what about the question I asked you?"
"Of course it's because you look too much like a bean sprout."
Zhang Yuanli: "......"
I finally mustered up the courage, but then I lost it all.
Indeed, when Guan Yuxi was very young, she loved to follow the five brothers, Guotai Min'an Ren, around.
She also kept saying things like, "Let her five older brothers love her and protect her."
Later, when they got a little older, the other five were also busy going up the mountain and down to the fields.
She started hanging out with the smooth-talking Leng Hongxing again.
She was thin, timid, and clumsy with words, so she was definitely not the type she liked.
Zhang Yuanli breathed a long sigh of relief, finally able to put down the burden in his heart.
He waved to her and went back inside.
Two figures from the next door also quickly flashed back into the yard.
"Do you think Zhang Yuanli is trying to steal Lie Ge's girlfriend?"
He Nan blinked, secretly admiring his courage.
What kind of person is Leng Lie?
Although she hadn't had much contact with them, she already knew everything about them.
He was someone who valued Guan Yuxi more than his own life.
He wasn't happy even when she was close to him.
Not to mention, other men wanted to take it.
Xu Meng'an closed the door and chuckled, "How could a coward like him dare?"
Moreover, his feelings for Xiaoxi were probably just those of a brother and sister.
You're overthinking it!
Having worked with Zhang Yuanli for some time, she had come to know him quite well.
He is the kind of person who is very intelligent and also very self-aware.
Even if he had a crush on Guan Yuxi in his youth, that feeling had worn off considerably.
He Nan didn't believe it. "How is that possible? Can there be pure friendship between a man and a woman?"
Xu Mengan raised her hand and tapped her on the head. "Look at all the people in Lengjiagou. Aren't they all very kind and tolerant towards Xiaoxi?"
Not just Lengjiagou, but probably everyone in the surrounding villages who knows her knows the same thing.
Do you know why?
He Nan knew without even thinking that it was because of Grandpa Guan.
Because during the most difficult years, Grandpa Guan protected Lengjiagou, and even the entire Shuanghe Commune, from major upheavals.
Furthermore, he used his connections to secure some disaster relief supplies during the most difficult years.
Although the supplies were limited, they gave everyone hope and confidence.
That's why everyone loves and respects him so much.
Because of this widespread affection, Guan Yuxi was naturally also admired like a little princess.
Xu Meng'an shook her head, "You're wrong. People like Xiaoxi not just because of her grandfather."
Also because she has a compassionate heart.
Otherwise, Bai Qin wouldn't have been able to exploit this loophole...
People who lived through that era are mostly hard-hearted.
Not to mention how they treat outsiders, they can be ruthless even to their own family members, kicking them when they're down!
After a fierce clash between good and evil.
The evil in one's bones is suppressed by the good that is cultivated later in life.
Yet they are still haunted by the evil they committed in the past, which is why they yearn for truth, goodness, and beauty.
Guan Yuxi is the person that everyone aspires to be!
He Nan looked at her thoughtfully, "Hmm, why do I feel like you care a lot about Goubuli?"
Xu Meng'an was lifting the covers to get into bed when she heard this and almost fell off.
She turned around and snapped, "Don't talk nonsense!"
If this gets out, how will she work with him in the future?
On the other side.
Guan Yuxi took a shower and went to bed.
If she knew Xu Meng'an's opinion of the original owner, she would probably look at her in a completely different light.
Even she thought the original owner was incredibly stupid.
Unexpectedly, Xu Meng'an, who had experienced those difficult years, spoke highly of her.
That's understandable, though.
Guan Yuxi never personally experienced that period of time.
"Brother Lie, I miss you so much!"
She hugged his pillow and snuggled into the covers.
Because of the heat, Leng Lie doesn't use a blanket much.
His scent was barely perceptible in the bed.
Guan Yuxi took out another of his clothes and put it on the long double pillowcase before she was somewhat satisfied.
