I didn't expect this to happen, and the expression on Xiang Baiwei's face was hard to describe.

After a moment, she shook her head and sighed, "In order to get you back to the city, your family really went to great lengths to trick you back."

"It's no use no matter how many plays you put on. If you say you won't go back, then you won't go back."

Jiang Sui pulled the corner of his mouth and sneered twice, then returned to the main room, sorted the things he bought, and changed into work clothes, "Weiwei, I'm going to the machinery factory. I will pass by the supply and marketing cooperative restaurant on the way. Is there anything you want to eat? Do you want me to take you with me?"

"No, I have to go pick cotton this afternoon, and then I have to go to town to thresh the cotton. By the way, it seems that your school needs you to do something, so you can stop by the school later. A teacher from the school came over last night and asked me to let you know when you come back."

Jiang Sui responded, turned around and rode out on his bike.

When I came back, it was already night.

Xiang Baiwei moved a small stool and sat at the door of the main room, leaning in front of the lamp, sewing clothes while waiting for Jiang Sui to come back.

As the moon rose higher and higher, Jiang Suiren was still outside, and Xiang Baiwei couldn't help but worry about him.

After thinking about it, she opened the door in the bright moonlight, wanting to see why the person had not returned yet.

As soon as I opened the door, Jiang Sui appeared not far away on a bicycle.

"Where are you going so late and not sleeping?"

Jiang Sui got out of the car, pushed the cart into the yard, and asked Xiang Baiwei who was locking the door behind him, "Stay indoors so late in the future. The days are getting colder, and the dew is heavy at night. Be careful not to catch a cold!"

After confirming that the lock was locked, Xiang Baiwei picked up the sewing basket on the ground and said, "Why did you take so long this time? You left at noon, and it was almost midnight when you came back."

"When I came back in the evening, I was stopped by a few friends at the entrance of the village and stayed at their home for a while."

Jiang Sui parked the car and walked into the house while talking to Xiang Baiwei, "Why are you still awake so late? Are you waiting for me?"

It sounded like a very normal question, but Xiang Baiwei inexplicably felt a little embarrassed.

So she quickly changed the subject: "Have you eaten? I just left some dishes and rice. If you haven't eaten, I'll go to the kitchen and heat up the soup."

"No need," Jiang Sui stopped Xiang Baiwei who wanted to go to the kitchen to heat up the soup, "I'll do it, you continue with your work."

In fact, he had already eaten outside, but this was specially left for him by Xiang Baiwei. If he didn't eat it, what if she didn't do this in the future? That would be a shame!

He spent so much effort to finally ease the relationship between the two people.

Jiang Sui is now very psychologically fragile and can't withstand any changes in Xiang Baiwei.

During the meal, Xiang Baiwei suppressed her sleepiness and yawned as she accompanied Jiang Sui.

In this era, there are very few entertainment options, and there is not even a TV at home. After a busy day, Xiang Baiwei just wants to sleep. Slowly, she adjusts her biological clock to a very regular pattern.

At this time of day, both of them would have gone to bed.

Xiang Baiwei would usually appear in the space to take care of the vegetable garden and fish pond.

Some time ago, she had just finished dealing with seeds and fish fry. Recently, she would just go in occasionally to take a look, and she didn't have to do any important work.

Of course, you still need to go in and pick up things occasionally on specific days.

Jiang Sui saw that she was sleepy, so he ate the remaining meal in a few gulps, washed the dishes hurriedly, and hurriedly brushed his teeth, washed his face and feet. He finished everything in less than ten minutes and ran back to the room.

"It's getting late, let's go to bed early."

Normally, she wouldn't think there was anything wrong with this, but at this moment, Xiang Baiwei always felt that there was a hint of ambiguity in Jiang Sui's words.

While the other person was getting the quilt, Xiang Baiwei secretly pinched her face, trying to wake herself up and stop thinking about it.

The relationship between the two of them was obviously normal, and those messy thoughts that popped up in her mind just now shouldn't exist! She couldn't let love get the better of her.

Xiang Baiwei was in a mess and didn't say a word to Jiang Sui. After saying good night to each other, she pulled the curtain, took off her coat, and got into bed wearing her long underwear.

On the other side of the curtain, Jiang Sui lay flat on the bed, his eyes staring straight above his head, his ears focused on listening to the movements on the other side of the curtain.

Until I heard Xiang Baiwei's breathing becoming more and more steady, and it seemed that she had fallen asleep.

As Jiang Sui listened to the familiar breathing sound, he also began to feel sleepy.

Just as he was drowsy, that special voice in his mind slowly sounded.

It was the system that gave me another chance.

The system is here again.

Every time he comes, it means there is a mission.

[Good evening, host, please accept the new task for tonight. ]

Jiang Sui’s consciousness entered the void. Looking at the letter floating in the void, he reached out to take it and opened it.

Tonight’s task is not too difficult. It is to help a lost child return home.

After Jiang Sui accepted the task, he was teleported by the system to the location of the lost child.

He stood in a hidden place, secretly observing for a while, and at the same time memorized the child's background.

[In order to avoid the dangerous situation that the child will not be vigilant to strangers in the future, please choose the appropriate method to help the child return home. ]

It is very easy to take the child home directly, and the information provided by the system is at hand.

But this appropriate method... is more difficult to operate.

Some people around had already noticed the little kid sitting on the steps and crying.

If the operation is not done properly, the consequences will be disastrous.

After hesitating for a while, Jiang Sui chose to pretend to be an acquaintance of the child.

He jumped around for a while, ruffled his hair, unbuttoned two buttons, rolled up the sleeve of one arm, pretended to be in a hurry, and ran towards the child while shouting: "Huzi! Is that Huzi? I finally found you. Your parents are so worried, do you know?"

Little Hu, who was no more than five years old, heard someone calling him. He looked up at Jiang Sui with a confused look on his face and even forgot to cry. But because he had been crying for a long time before that, his whole body was twitching uncontrollably.

After seeing his face clearly, Jiang Sui stopped in his tracks and his facial expression became somewhat subtle.

This Huzi...why does he look so much like the child of me and Xiang Baiwei? Could it be...
