Zhang Chunxue took the gold necklace, weighed it, and then put it directly into his pocket.
She didn't even bother to glance at Zhong Chengren and Meng Wanshu, and turned around to leave.
After taking two steps, she stopped again.
Song Xingzhi had helped her a lot in today's matter.
She turned around and looked at Song Xingzhi, her tone softening a little: "Clerk Song, are you going back to the village?"
Song Xingzhi's heart moved slightly, but looking at Zhang Chunxue's expression, it seemed that she was just asking politely and had no intention of really inviting him to go with her.
A subtle hint of disappointment flashed across his eyes, but he then smiled and pointed to the counter, "I haven't bought rice yet. Sister Chunxue, please go back first."
Zhang Chunxue heard this and a look of relief appeared on her face. She nodded and said, "Okay, I'll be leaving first."
After saying that, he squeezed out of the crowd and left without looking back.
Song Xingzhi looked at her neat and tidy back, and the tiny hope that had just risen in his heart sank again, and his sense of loss became even stronger.
Zhang Chunxue was indeed relieved.
After all, there were so many people at the entrance of the grain and oil station. She and Song Xingzhi walked one after the other. If they walked back to the village side by side, people might gossip about them.
Besides, she felt uneasy and uncomfortable walking alone with a grown man like Song Xingzhi.
Zhang Chunxue left the grain and oil station and headed straight for the village at a brisk pace.
On Song Xingzhi's side, he quickly weighed the rice, paid the money, and quickened his pace to catch up.
Zhang Chunxue had not walked far when he noticed someone following him slowly.
She glanced back out of the corner of her eye and her heart skipped a beat.
It’s Song Xingzhi.
He followed behind, keeping a distance of about twenty meters.
Not far, nor close, just right, allowing her to always be in his sight.
Zhang Chunxue now knew that Song Xingzhi was right behind her, and those two gazes were like nails, fixed on her back.
Her heart suddenly started beating wildly for no reason, and she didn't know which leg to move first when she walked.
His left foot tripped over his right foot and he almost stumbled.
She subconsciously wanted to straighten her back, pay attention to her image, and not walk crookedly.
But the more I thought about it, the weaker my legs became.
The result was that I almost fell three times after walking less than 200 meters!
Every time, she would break out in a cold sweat and her cheeks would turn red with embarrassment.
Finally, Zhang Chunxue made up her mind and decided to give up!
Love to see!
She held her head high, chest out, and arms outstretched, striding forward with big strides, as if she was going to fight someone.
Song Xingzhi was behind her, and seeing how embarrassed she was when she almost fell down several times, his heart was in his throat.
He wanted to take a few quick steps to help her, but he was afraid of offending her, so he had to hold back.
He also noticed that she looked uncomfortable because she didn't know where to put her hands and feet.
This is uncomfortable...is it because of him?
A thought quietly emerged in his mind.
He was not completely without any ripples in her heart.
Thinking of this, Song Xingzhi's heart was inexplicably filled with a hint of joy.
Zhang Chunxue almost ran back to his yard as if escaping.
As soon as she entered the door, she breathed a long sigh of relief and raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead.
She didn't delay in the yard and went straight into Zhou Mingli's house.
Zhou Mingli was holding Zhong Yuanyuan, who had just woken up, and humming a tuneless ballad. Her face was still pale, but there was finally some life in her eyes.
Seeing Zhang Chunxue come in, she forced a smile: "Mom, you're back."
Zhang Chunxue walked to the kang, took out the heavy gold necklace from his pocket, and without saying a word, stuffed it directly into Zhou Mingli's hand.
"Mingli, look at this."
Zhou Mingli was startled by the cool touch and the bright yellow sheen in her hand. She opened her eyes wide, confused: "Mom, what is this...?"
Zhang Chunxue sat down on the edge of the kang and lowered her voice, "This is what that beast Zhong Chengren bought for another vixen outside!"
She told Zhou Mingli everything that happened at the grain and oil station, in detail, without even missing Meng Wanshu's expression.
Finally, Zhang Chunxue stared at Zhou Mingli with sharp eyes and said, "I think he and Meng Wanshu have been together for a long time! If they weren't old lovers, would he be willing to invest so much money? How dare he be so blatant?"
As Zhou Mingli listened, the color on her face gradually faded away.
The gold necklace in her hand felt like a red-hot iron, burning her heart so much that it made her tremble.
After Zhang Chunxue finished speaking and confirmed that Zhong Chengren really had someone outside, she could no longer bear it.
"Wow--"
Zhou Mingli clenched the necklace tightly as if it were a knife and burst into tears.
Tears rolled down like beads from a broken string, soaking the collar of her clothes in an instant.
She was shaking all over and crying heart-wrenchingly, as if she wanted to cry out all the grievances and pain in her heart that she had suffered in recent days.
The little bit of spirit that I had finally regained collapsed in an instant.
"How could he...how could he do this to me...and Yuanyuan...wuwuwu..." She cried so hard that she was out of breath and couldn't even finish her sentences.
Zhang Chunxue felt a pang of pain in her heart when she saw her like this, but her face remained stern, without a trace of softening.
