Chapter 51 I want to see him lose control
Upon hearing Sun Xiaoyue's words, Jiang Donghua's face changed color, and he became somewhat anxious: "What's wrong with you? How could you be so confused? This is a serious mistake."
During such a sensitive time, she actually picked this up again—is she out of her mind?
Sun Xiaoyue burst into tears, feeling wronged: "I didn't think that much about it. I just wanted to pick it up and hand it over to the project. But I was a little curious and accidentally made a mistake. What about Donghua? If I'm found out, my dad will definitely be implicated! We're fine, but I'm afraid I haven't been able to keep my promise to you... I don't want you to suffer in this remote mountain village forever."
Jiang Donghua felt even colder. What would happen to his future if something happened to Sun Xiaoyue?
He's not letting any learning opportunity slip by, hoping that the college entrance exam, as Sun Xiaoyue mentioned, will be reinstated so he can go to university and explore a wider world! But that requires connections!
Ever since he learned of Sun Xiaoyue's identity, his ambition has grown ever larger, so he absolutely cannot let anything happen to Sun Xiaoyue.
Jiang Donghua's mind worked quickly. He grabbed Sun Xiaoyue's hand and said, "Don't worry, I'll figure something out. We'll find someone to take the blame. Just do as I say..."
...
Jiang Zhizhi got up as soon as it was light, washed up, and quickly grabbed her bag to go to Old Man Liang's house.
She had neither a watch nor an alarm clock, afraid of missing the time she had arranged to meet Zhou Xiye and the others.
After breakfast, the Liang family went to work in the fields. Jiang Zhizhi checked the time and it was only 7:30, so she simply went to the threshing ground to wait.
Sitting on the stone mill in the threshing ground, you can see the ravines below the distant mountain ridge.
At the same time, they saw Jiang Donghua and Sun Xiaoyue sneaking off to a ravine, and then sneaking back to the educated youth settlement along the ridge within two minutes.
An affair?
It shouldn't have been over in just two minutes.
There wasn't even enough time to take off my pants!
Jiang Zhizhi glanced at them curiously for a few moments, watching the two disappear into the morning light on the mountain ridge before turning her gaze away. Then she looked at the stone mill, where a row of ants were crawling upwards. Bored, she picked up a straw and used it to block the path of the lead ant.
Watching a group of ants forced to change course, I couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Zhou Xiye drove, and Zhang Zhao sat in the back seat, calling out to Jiang Zhizhi to get in the car.
Jiang Zhizhi threw down the straw stalks, jumped lightly off the stone mill, picked up her bag, and ran towards the car.
Seeing that Zhou Xiye was driving, he was a little surprised. As he was about to get into the back seat, he found Zhang Zhao and a soldier he didn't recognize sitting there.
Before Zhou Xiye could speak, Zhang Zhao warmly greeted him, "Technician Jiang, please sit in the front."
Zhou Xiye nodded slightly, signaling Jiang Zhizhi to get into the car.
Jiang Zhizhi was surprised for a moment, then quickly got into the car. She couldn't waste their time, and the old 212 had very little space in the back, making it cramped for three people. She couldn't possibly leave the front passenger seat to squeeze in with Zhang Zhao and the others.
After getting into the car, he smiled at the two people in the back seat, then smiled at Zhou Xiye with his eyes crinkling: "Captain Zhou, thank you for today."
Zhou Xiye's jaw tightened slightly as he focused on driving, but his tone was much calmer: "It's nothing, we're just going the same way. How many days are you staying in the city this time?"
Jiang Zhizhi thought for a moment: "It might take a week. Secretary Dong said he found the best welder in the workshop. If the skill is good, it should be able to be done in five days."
Zhou Xiye paused for a moment: "You also know how to weld?"
Jiang Zhizhi nodded and said, "I know a little bit. My dad taught me."
Zhou Xiye tapped his fingers on the steering wheel. Jiang Zhenhua knows welding? He really didn't know.
Zhang Zhao, sitting in the back row, nudged the young soldier next to him, winked at him, and told him to look at Zhou Xiye, then at Jiang Zhizhi.
The young soldier looked bewildered, completely unaware of what his company commander was so happy about.
Zhang Zhao found him very boring, even more so than Wang Changkun, and leaned over to talk to Jiang Zhizhi: "Technician Jiang, where did you live before?"
Jiang Zhizhi was very honest: "Secretary Dong said that we should first meet at Huacheng Hotel, and then stay in the workshop dormitory in order to save money."
Zhang Zhao exclaimed in surprise, "You're a woman living in the workshop dormitory with a bunch of men? That's so inconvenient!"
Jiang Zhizhi said awkwardly, "It's okay, Secretary Dong said there are female comrades too."
Zhou Xiye found Zhang Zhao's voice incredibly annoying, and frowned, his tone cold: "Can you sit still?"
Zhang Zhao shut up and quickly sat up straight, but his eyes kept darting between Zhou Xiye and Jiang Zhizhi.
Zhou Xiye was a very good driver, and Jiang Zhizhi's gaze kept drifting uncontrollably to his hand holding the gearshift. The back of his hand was thin with prominent veins, and his fingers were long and slender, making it a very sexually stimulating hand.
She dared not look up, and each time she stole a glance, she could not see Zhou Xiye's entire profile, only his slightly taut jawline with its sharp and cold lines.
I secretly sighed to myself, thinking that Nuwa was still quite biased when she created humans!
In a moment of distraction, the car jolted and suddenly veered off to one side as if it had gone out of control.
Jiang Zhizhi was startled and before she could react, she saw Zhou Xiye control the steering wheel with one hand, quickly shift to first gear with the other, and then reach out to block Jiang Zhizhi's way.
The car suddenly stopped without any warning!
Jiang Zhizhi leaned forward unconsciously and rushed out, but was stopped by Zhou Xiye's arm, preventing her from hitting the windshield.
I felt a dull pain in my chest, as if I had hit an iron arm.
Jiang Zhizhi realized that it was Zhou Xiye's arm, and her face instantly turned bright red. She was a little afraid to look up.
Zhou Xiye quickly withdrew his arm and shouted for Zhang Zhao to get out of the car: "It's seized up again. How do you fix cars?"
Zhang Zhao was caught off guard and bumped into the front seat. He got out of the car rubbing his forehead and groaning, "What happened? I fixed it. Let me take a look."
He deftly lifted the hood and called for the soldiers to get him the tools.
Jiang Zhizhi calmed herself down, but her chest still ached slightly, and the impact of that iron arm was still there. She wondered to herself, "Is this person's arm made of iron? How can it be so hard?"
Seeing Zhang Zhao sweating profusely while repairing the car, I couldn't resist opening the car door and getting out myself.
Zhou Xiye stood a little further away, just took out a cigarette and a match to light it, trying to suppress the sudden dryness in his mouth.
Seeing Jiang Zhizhi get out of the car, he paused for a moment, then put the cigarettes and matches back into his pocket.
Jiang Zhizhi went over and looked at it curiously for a while: "Can it be fixed?"
Zhang Zhao assured him, "No problem, Technician Jiang, you and our boss go sit in the car, it's too hot down there."
Jiang Zhizhi was too embarrassed to look at Zhou Xiye; his hard, unyielding presence inexplicably made her heart race.
Zhang Zhao was puzzled: "Boss, it seems like there's a problem with the battery. Wait for me a bit."
Jiang Zhizhi stood by and watched. Zhang Zhao was quite capable to have discovered the problem so quickly.
Looking at Zhou Xiye, he stood calmly to the side, not at all worried that Zhang Zhao would not be able to fix it.
She still admired Zhou Xiye's calm and composed demeanor no matter what, and couldn't help but wonder what would happen if Zhou Xiye lost control.
