Chapter 123: Retreat to Advance, the First Strategy for Chasing Your Wife
Before he finished speaking, the other party nodded happily, "Okay."
Ruan Yuntang looked at his drooping brows and felt inexplicably soft-hearted.
But when she thought of what happened last night, she suppressed it.
"Then you eat first. I'll go find Xiao Zhao."
After saying that, Ruan Yuntang quickly walked out the door without waiting for him to reply.
Jiang Yubai looked at her back, his eyes gradually darkened, and the corners of his lips twitched slightly.
Then he slowly finished everything that was left on the table, including the food in the other bowl, and finally cleared the table.
After a while, Ruan Yuntang came back with Xiao Zhao.
After entering the house, she looked at the clean and tidy house, then glanced at the weak person leaning on the sofa, and frowned unconsciously.
"Your injuries haven't healed yet, just let me take care of you!"
"It's okay, I'm not useless. We agreed before that you cook and I clean up."
After Jiang Yubai finished speaking, he glanced at Zhao Qiang behind him and was about to stand up with the help of his crutch.
Zhao Qiang subconsciously wanted to step forward to help, but just as he raised his foot, he met the man's cold eyes. He turned on his toes and said as he walked out:
"Sister-in-law, please help the captain get in the car. I'll go drive the car over here first!"
Ruan Yuntang's original hesitation disappeared and he responded.
She stepped forward to support Jiang Yubai's arm, but her grasp was empty. She looked over in confusion and saw Jiang Yubai dodging away with his crutch in his hand. He said firmly:
"It's okay, I can do it myself. You still have things to do at the factory, so go ahead."
His face was pale and bloodless, his eyes were filled with sadness, but his words were firm.
After saying this, he limped out of the house with his crutch, not giving anyone else a chance to speak.
Ruan Yuntang looked at his tall and handsome back, and suddenly felt sad.
She wondered if she was too hard-hearted.
He was not wrong, he had no idea what would happen to him in the future.
But what should she say?
Jiang Yubai kept an eye on the person behind him, and naturally felt her softness, entanglement, complexity, and struggle.
There was a deep suspicion in his eyes.
He could sense that she was not completely without affection for him, but why did she try so hard to hide herself as soon as he showed the slightest sign of it?
After getting in the car, he looked at the person standing outside the window and said, "Get in the car, I'll take you there."
Ruan Yuntang shook his head and said, "Xiaoling and I will go together. She will be late."
Jiang Yubai understood what she meant and didn't force it.
Ruan Yuntang watched the car disappear and instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
She has some thoughts in her mind that she hasn't sorted out yet, so it's best not to meet for now.
After returning to the yard and waiting for an hour, Hu Xiaoling came over carrying a lot of bags.
"Tangtang, I'm sorry. I just realized before I left that the bottle was wrapped so ugly, so I rewrapped it."
"It doesn't matter."
Ruan Yuntang carried a few bags for her.
Hu Xiaoling's stall business hasn't been very good recently, so she suggested that Hu Xiaoling set up her stall outside their factory. After all, there are so many workers in the factory, and there are several villages nearby.
Hu Xiaoling looked at Ruan Yuntang carrying several bags for her, and suddenly slapped her head in frustration.
"Did I bring too much? We have a long way to go later."
"It's okay, just treat it as exercise."
Ruan Yuntang said this with a smile, and then moved the thing in his left hand to his right hand. The nylon rope was too tight on his hand.
Hu Xiaoling felt even more guilty. Just as she was about to say something, her eyes suddenly fixed on a car at the entrance of the military base.
"Isn't that Comrade Zhao? How about I ask him to take us for a few steps?"
Ruan Yuntang looked in the direction and shook his head quickly.
She had just refused Jiang Yubai to take her along, and now that he was gone, she got in the car again. Wasn't this obviously an example of avoiding him?
Seeing that she was unwilling, Hu Xiaoling did not mention it again. Just as she was about to continue walking, she saw the car suddenly driving towards them.
The car window rolled down and Xiao Zhao greeted them with a smile.
"Sister-in-law, the leader asked me to come back to pick you up, get in the car quickly!"
Surprise flashed in Ruan Yuntang's eyes, followed by embarrassment.
After getting in the car, she was even more confused.
She felt that he must have seen through her.
"Tangtang, Captain Jiang is so thoughtful!" Hu Xiaoling nudged her with her elbow and said ambiguously.
Ruan Yuntang gave a forced smile.
Hu Xiaoling sensed something was wrong, looked at Xiao Zhao in front of her, and didn't ask any further questions.
As soon as she got out of the car, she immediately asked, "Did you and Jiang Tuan have a conflict?"
"No." Ruan Yuntang said, then changed the subject and pointed to the door, "Where do you want to put it?"
Hu Xiaoling's attention was immediately diverted. She carefully inspected the area and then asked cautiously:
"Will I be chased away if I set up a stall here?"
"Don't worry, I'm here to take care of it." Ruan Yuntang thought about the money he invested, which would be of some use at least.
Hu Xiaoling was now 100% convinced by her. After hearing what she said, she opened the cloth bag and started setting up the stall.
Ruan Yuntang helped set up the table and then turned and went into the factory.
As soon as he reached the door, Wang Ying stopped him with a frown.
"You're a full hour late, you know that?"
Ruan Yuntang paused, "My working hours are not regulated. Didn't Julia tell you?"
Of course Wang Ying knew about this. She was just dissatisfied with the special treatment given to people like Ruan Yuntang who had connections.
"Once or twice is fine, but this time you're relying on your ability to curry favor with Julia and disregarding factory rules. When a partner arrives, you'll be fired!"
After she finished speaking, she waited to see Ruan Yuntang's panic expression, but she didn't expect the girl in front of her to remain calm and even curled her lips provocatively.
"Really? Then just wait and see whether I get fired first or you get fired first."
Ruan Yuntang looked at her with only disdain for a clown.
Wang Ying was immediately furious and said angrily:
"How shameless of you to say such boasts! Do you think it's still the time for you capitalists to exploit the working people and eat their blood and flesh?"
Ruan Yuntang's eyes turned cold, "Director Wang, don't you read the newspaper?"
Wang Ying's arrogance froze for a second, and he sneered again:
"You just have a backer to support you. So how does the newspaper write about it? Isn't it still up to the boss to decide?"
“Snap—”
The sudden slap made Wang Ying's right cheek hurt. She looked at Chen Xiangxiang who was protecting Ruan Yuntang in surprise.
"Ms. Shen...Ms. Shen, why are you..."
Doesn’t Chen Xiangxiang also hate Ruan Yuntang?
"Who exploited you? Who sucked human blood and ate human flesh?" Chen Xiangxiang's face was cold and her eyes were wide open.
Wang Ying paused for a second before remembering that Chen Xiangxiang's back at home was also a big asset...
She explained flatteringly, “Miss Shen, I didn’t say what you meant, I was—”
"I don't care who you say that to, if I hear it again, I'll beat your face until it's swollen!"
After Chen Xiangxiang finished her fierce threat, she turned her head to see Ruan Yuntang's surprised expression. She snorted coldly.
"I'm not helping you, please don't misunderstand."
After she finished speaking, she turned and walked away. After taking two steps, she turned back and looked at Ruan Yuntang dissatisfiedly, "Why don't you come to work?"
