After learning that the oil, rice and bacon in the kitchen were missing, Du Wenli was instructed by Kong Wanwan to go to the slopes and grass outside the kitchen, where he bent down and searched a large area.
But in the end he got nothing and had to return home disappointed.
After coming back, Kong Wanwan scolded him as a coward.
Kong Wanwan was puzzled. Why did Shen Xiaobei go into the kitchen and the kitchen looked like it had been looted, but she came out empty-handed and found nothing outside the kitchen?
Despite Du Wenli's opposition and obstruction, she finally insisted on going to Shen Xiaobei to find out the truth.
However, Shen Xiaobei had already closed the door and returned to the room. Even though she knocked on the door for a long time, he ignored her. Kong Wanwan was so angry that she cursed and had to go back.
Early the next morning, Kong Wanwan came knocking on the door and yelling again. Shen Xiaobei was a little annoyed that his wish to sleep naturally on New Year's Day was broken.
After putting on his coat and walking into the main room, he picked up a shovel from the corner and opened the door.
"Kong Wanwan, if you keep knocking and yelling, don't blame me for being rude! Go back to your own home!"
As soon as the door opened, Shen Xiaobei raised the shovel without saying a word and wanted to drive Kong Wanwan away. Kong Wanwan didn't expect her to be so fierce. She was angry and a little afraid.
"Shen Xiaobei, I don't believe you really dare to hit me! Tell me clearly, where did you put the things in my kitchen? If you don't tell me clearly, then you are a thief!"
"Oh, how ridiculous! In broad daylight, the thief cries out, thief!"
"Kong Wanwan, you have the time to mess with others every day. Why don't you think about why every time you mess with others, you end up losing more than you gain?"
"Is it because you're too stupid, or is it because karma is always right and evildoers will eventually be punished? Go back and reflect on your actions, and don't harass me! If you harass me again, I'll make you pay! Get out!"
Shen Xiaobei sneered and said, then he rudely drove Kong Wanwan out of the yard with a shovel.
This woman lives a ferocious life in her narrow little world every day. Shen Xiaobei feels exhausted when he looks at her for a second longer. Out of sight, out of mind is the best way to deal with it.
"Shen Xiaobei, you are the evil one! Shen Xiaobei——"
Kong Wanwan shouted outside the yard for a while, but seeing that no one paid any attention to her, she finally returned to her house angrily.
Already unable to sleep due to Kong Wanwan's disturbance, Shen Xiaobei simply stopped sleeping. After getting dressed, he went to Ma Ji's family to wish them a happy new year, carrying two boxes of gifts.
Ma Jiquan is the team leader of the production team. She doesn't know how long she will live in this production team, so it is necessary to maintain a good relationship with him.
At least you can ask for leave and go out without any hindrance.
When Shen Xiaobei arrived at Ma Jiquan's house, he found that Ma Deliang was also there.
Ever since Ma Deliang became a scorer, his parents would ask him to come and wish Ma Jiquan a happy new year every New Year's morning.
When Shen Xiaobei came, he had already drunk half a cup of tea, chatted with Ma Jiquan and his wife for a while, and was about to leave.
But when he saw her coming, he greeted her shyly but joyfully, and then he was reluctant to leave so soon. He didn't leave Ma Ji's family until he finished half a cup of tea, and then he got up with Shen Xiaobei and left.
"Shen Zhiqing, are you spending the New Year alone at the Zhiqing site this year?"
"Yes, Sister Huifang and Xiaoli have both returned home!"
"Haha, then it's quite lonely here for you alone."
"It's not so bad! Don't we have Du Zhiqing and his family of three living next door? Sometimes when their kids cry loudly, I can hear them. It's quite lively!"
"Haha, that's right. Um, Shen Zhiqing——"
"Horse Scorer, do you have something to say to me? Just go ahead and say it. Why are you seeming so hesitant?"
Shen Xiaobei looked at Ma Deliang like a shy girl and had already guessed what he was thinking.
To be precise, when she had been working in the production team and interacting with him for the past six months, she had vaguely felt that this older boy treated her differently.
However, no one said anything to her, so she pretended not to know and treated her like an ordinary acquaintance or friend.
Seeing Shen Xiaobei's straightforward question, Ma Deliang lowered his head and took a deep breath, secretly encouraging himself, and then looked up to meet her dark eyes.
Her ears blushed slightly as she asked, “Shen Zhiqing, I want to ask you, I want to ask you…”
"What do you want to ask me?"
"I want to ask you, are you still dating someone? If not, then I——"
Before Ma Deliang could finish the question, Shen Xiaobei immediately understood and smiled and decisively refused: "Scorer Ma, I have someone I'm dating."
"Ah? Got it? Then how come I've never seen it before, or heard anyone mention it?"
"Haha, my partner works out of town, so you haven't met him. Besides Sister Huifang, I haven't talked about him with anyone else in our team!"
"Oh, so that's how it is. Shen Zhiqing, I was too presumptuous to ask just now. Just pretend that I never asked this question. I'm leaving now. Goodbye."
Upon learning that Shen Xiaobei already had a partner, Ma Deliang's face was as embarrassed as a big cat, and he wished he could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
I was really regretting that I shouldn't have asked her about this so hastily.
Maybe after a while, everyone in the team would know about it, and then he would know about it too, and then he could end this secret love quietly and without anyone noticing.
I won’t make such a fool of myself in front of Shen Xiaobei today!
"Horse Scorer, wait a minute!"
“Shen Zhiqing, do you have anything else to say?”
When Ma Deliang heard Shen Xiaobei calling him, he stopped in his tracks, but he didn't dare to look directly at her face, so he lowered his head and asked.
