At this time, the old village chief sitting nearby took a few slow puffs of his pipe, then slowly said, "If anyone dares to gossip about you, just let them come to me directly!"
Luo Yiyi was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly responded, "Okay! Since you, the village chief, have said so, I can go back without any worries!"
After saying that, she swiftly waved to Gu Sihan who was standing not far away, preparing to return home together.
However, just as the two of them turned around, the captain suddenly reached out to stop them and shouted anxiously, "Hey, hey, wait!
All I said just now was that you can go back and rest alone, but Gu Lao Er has to stay here and continue working!"
Luo Yiyi's eyes widened upon hearing this and he retorted, "But... he had already finished the work he was supposed to do!
Besides, I don't have to complete my part of the work!"
The captain's eyes widened, completely unaware of this happening. However, he quickly recovered and, after a moment's thought, reluctantly stepped back and said,
"Well, then, let him finish all his work for today first!
As for tomorrow, just let him concentrate on completing his own work."
Hearing this, although Luo Yiyi was reluctant in his heart, he knew it was not good to continue insisting, so he nodded, then turned to Gu Sihan who was still standing not far away and shouted: "Xiaohan, you should continue to finish these tasks."
When Gu Sihan heard Luo Yiyi's call, he just frowned slightly, then obediently walked back to his original place, picked up his tools again and started working hard.
The captain stood aside, staring at Gu Sihan's busy figure, with a hint of surprise and admiration in his eyes.
Gu Sihan was quick and skillful, as if he had endless energy. It didn't take long for him to handle a bunch of messy tasks in an orderly manner.
The captain couldn't help but turn to Luo Yiyi and said with emotion: "Luo Zhiqing, I have to say, you are really amazing!
Even a guy like Gu Lao Er, who is usually naughty and disobedient, can be brought under control by you and become obedient and do whatever you say!"
Facing the captain's praise, Luo Yiyi quickly waved his hands and responded modestly: "Captain, you are too kind!
This actually has nothing to do with me. It’s mainly because Xiaohan is a kind-hearted and well-behaved person.”
The captain nodded in deep agreement, but then added, "But then again, Gu Laoer is still a child at heart, and he often lacks patience when doing things.
If he hadn't listened to you so much, based on his previous temper, I'm afraid he would never have been able to do so much heavy work in one go!"
These words flashed through Luo Yiyi's mind like a flash of lightning, instantly reminding her of Gu Sihan's various abnormal behaviors in recent times.
He was no longer as cheerful and carefree as before; instead, he was often lost in thought and even seemed depressed at times.
At this moment, Luo Yiyi suddenly realized that the innocent, lively and cheerful childhood Gu Sihan had slowly disappeared without her noticing...
Luo Yiyi's mood suddenly became heavy, as if a huge rock was pressing down on her heart, making it difficult for her to breathe.
She stood up suddenly and said to the captain with an unnatural look on her face: "Captain, I suddenly remembered that I still have some things to deal with. I'll take my leave now!"
After saying this, she turned around and left in a hurry, her steps seeming a little flustered.
The captain didn't notice anything unusual about Luo Yiyi. He just nodded casually and said, "Okay, go ahead and do your work. I'll tell Gu Laoer."
Luo Yiyi walked slowly alone on the narrow and winding ridges of the field, and every step seemed to be loaded with heavy thoughts.
At this moment, the figure of the innocent Gu Sihan kept appearing in her mind.
Luo Yiyi still remembers her first meeting with Gu Sihan vividly.
At that time, he actually called her mother without hesitation, and said that Gu Sireng was unfilial for not recognizing her, which really surprised her.
Not only that, Gu Sihan was not at all restless when sleeping at night. He had to stay close to her arms to fall asleep. He would even throw himself on her and hug her, with his head pressing heavily on her chest.
If he was accidentally scolded, Gu Sihan would immediately put on a pitiful and aggrieved look, staring at her with his clear and innocent big eyes, which made her heart soften instantly.
Moreover, he said that she was his daughter-in-law and vowed to treat her very, very well.
On weekdays, Gu Sihan also protected her everywhere.
Whenever someone bullied her, he would always stand up to her without hesitation and stand in front of her bravely;
In order to let her eat delicious meals, he took the trouble to cook and learn various recipes himself.
Little details like these kept flashing before Luo Yiyi's eyes like warm pictures.
However, at this moment these beautiful memories could not dispel the haze in Luo Yiyi's heart.
Even after entering the space at night, she was still immersed in her negative emotions.
Without even saying a word to Gu Sihan, he went straight back to his room and closed the door gently.
Gu Sihan, who was suddenly left out, was completely confused. He stood there blankly with a confused look on his face, muttering to himself, "What the hell is going on...
Did I do something wrong again?"
