Chapter 63 Shy
Julia's eyes lit up and she immediately told the location.
Ruan Yuntang wrote down the location and went out to get some food for Julia.
As the sky gradually darkened, Ruan Yuntang said goodbye and returned to the family compound with Jiang Yubai.
The night is dark.
Only the white light of car lights shone on the empty dirt road.
Ruan Yuntang stared at the road carefully. When he saw the intersection Julia mentioned, he said, "Please drop me off in front."
Jiang Yubai looked at her sideways.
"I'm going to help Julia find the flowers she left behind."
Jiang Yubai looked at the bumpy dirt road and frowned deeply, "Let's go tomorrow."
"I promised Julia that I would bring it to her tomorrow morning." Ruan Yuntang is a person who does what she says, and she is not afraid of the dark.
In her previous life, she had been to all sorts of deep mountains and forests in search of rare spices.
"Let's set off early tomorrow." Jiang Yubai didn't give her a chance to refute and stepped on the accelerator to the bottom.
The intersection disappeared from sight in an instant.
Ruan Yuntang frowned and said unhappily, "I didn't ask you to accompany me. Just put me down and I can go by myself."
She really doesn't like getting up early, and sleeping in is the happiest thing for her.
Jiang Yubai tightened his grip on the steering wheel and said in a deep voice, "You mean I should abandon you and let you go to the hillside alone in the middle of the night?"
Ruan Yuntang's expression froze for a moment, and only then did she realize that he was worried about her.
She gave him a strange look and pursed her lips. "I've been to deep mountains and old forests before. There's nothing to be afraid of on this small hill."
In my peripheral vision, the girl looked innocent, with her eyebrows slightly raised, and she looked fearless.
Jiang Yubai sneered and asked, "Aren't you afraid of poisonous snakes, centipedes, and spiders?"
With every word he said, Ruan Yuntang's face paled a shade, until she froze completely and glared at him angrily, "I have an insect repellent sachet on me!"
"Besides, would I be so unlucky?"
Having said that, she was still somewhat glad that he didn't let it go.
In her previous life, she had modern high-tech protective tools, so even if she encountered an insect, she would not have close contact with it.
But she is not like that now. It is dark and the road is slippery. What if a bug falls from the tree accidentally?
Jiang Yubai listened to her stubbornness, and the corners of his lips curled up unconsciously.
He accidentally saw the smile on his lips in the rearview mirror, and his smile suddenly disappeared and his face turned cold.
Ruan Yuntang didn't hear any reply. He turned his head curiously and looked at him. His cold and sharp profile was met by the car. The temperature in the car suddenly dropped several degrees.
Are you angry now?
Ruan Yuntang felt that he was extremely emotionally unstable and always sulking, not at all like the gentle and considerate male supporting character in the previous life in the book.
After thinking for a moment, she lowered her voice and said, "I know you mean well. Thank you."
After the words were spoken, the air fell into silence.
The person next to him didn't even glance at him.
Ruan Yuntang was too lazy to make himself bored, so he closed his eyes and rested quietly.
When they arrived at the family compound, Ruan Yuntang got out of the car, and Jiang Yubai had to return the car.
Ruan Yuntang took this time to take a quick shower and lay down to sleep.
In the middle of the night, Jiang Yubai returned to the family compound.
I first glanced at the small notebook under the sofa, which was still untouched.
He glanced at the closed door opposite.
If nothing goes wrong with this collaboration, she basically won't be a spy.
Jiang Yubai took a deep breath and told himself that all this was just to explain to the organization.
Whether she is "Ruan Yuntang" or not has nothing to do with him. As long as she doesn't do anything that harms the motherland, her life or death has nothing to do with him!
Then he put the notebook back in its place, washed up quickly and returned to the house.
As soon as he opened the door, a strong but not unpleasant fragrance rushed into his nose. He looked at the plate of burnt incense ashes in the corner and paused.
After a moment, he closed the door as if nothing had happened and went into the house.
After taking off his clothes and about to lie down, his eyes were fixed on the three or four colorful sachets on the army green quilt.
He maintained the posture of supporting the bed with one hand and bending his long legs for a long time. About a minute later, he picked up the sachets without changing his expression and threw them onto the abandoned old wooden table under the window.
The sachet rolled twice and landed in the shadow of the corner, and the pink crabapple embroidery thread was instantly covered with a thin layer of dust.
Ten minutes later, the person on the bed suddenly stood up, picked up the sachet and stuffed it back into the bedside drawer, then slammed the drawer shut with a "snap".
After falling asleep again, the faint scent of crabapple always comes out from the gap of the drawer, floating in the air.
the next day.
Ruan Yuntang woke up to a knock on the door. She closed her eyes, picked up something and threw it towards the door.
The voice was silent for a second, and then the man's cold and harsh reminder came from outside the house:
"Ruan Yuntang, it's ten o'clock."
Ruan Yuntang was about to curse when he suddenly woke up. Looking at the old tungsten filament lamp on the yellowed ceiling, he remembered that it was just a dream.
She quickly put on some clothes and hastily opened the door. "Sorry, I overslept."
As she opened the door, a black lace underwear suddenly fell from the sky and landed on the man's shoes.
Ruan Yuntang screamed, her cheeks flushed red, and she quickly picked up her underwear and slammed the door.
With her back against the door, she clenched her underwear with her fingers, her heart still pounding, and she wanted to die on the spot out of shame.
And outside the door.
Jiang Yubai was stunned for at least ten seconds before he came back to his senses from the scene in his mind, and a layer of crimson appeared on his ears.
He lowered his eyes to look at the grass-green uppers of his shoes, his brows furrowed almost inaudibly.
He forgot to brush his shoes this morning, damn it!
As soon as this thought came to his mind, his face turned cold again. He turned around and was about to leave when the door was suddenly opened again.
Ruan Yuntang walked out the door, dressed neatly, and walked past him with an unmistakable expression, "I'm ready, let's go."
Jiang Yubai's gaze fell from her red ears to her hands tightly grasping the hem of her skirt. His eyes moved slightly and he took a step to follow her.
This time, the car was dead silent.
Ruan Yuntang kept looking out the window while looking at the road, and his neck was so sore that he cried.
At this time, Jiang Yubai suddenly said: "The skirt you bought is too small. There are sisters-in-law in the family compound who can help you alter it."
Ruan Yuntang's brain froze for a second, then he turned his head with excitement.
"Really? Thank you so much, I'll go see her tomorrow!"
Her bright and clear eyes flickered as if there were stars in them.
Jiang Yubai only took a glance, quickly looked away, and his throat rolled slightly.
Ruan Yuntang now felt that he was a really good man. Regardless of whether he recognized him or not, he was very gentlemanly.
The car stopped at the foot of the hill.
Ruan Yuntang followed the route Julia told her and went up. The mountain road was flat and the slope was not steep. After a while, she found a field of wild flowers. She leaned closer and smelled them, but there was nothing unusual.
She glanced around again.
Finally, she found a small bunch of withered yellow flowers under a tree. She quickly picked it up and smelled it, and her eyes suddenly darkened.
There is indeed something wrong with this flower.
Jiang Yubai watched her series of movements and realized something was wrong. He asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with this flower?"
