The two left the skating rink and returned to the Naval District compound.
Xiao Yue didn't get out of the car. He sat in the driver's seat, watched Shi Ye open the door, and said, "You go back first. I'll go out for a while."
Shi also frowned and said disapprovingly: "Where are you going? Are you planning to go find Jiang Zishan by yourself?"
Jiang Zishan is not a small fry. No matter how stupid or incompetent he is, he is still a member of the Jiang family in Yandu. The Jiang family has been entrenched in Yandu for many years, and their foundation is almost deeper than that of the Xiao family. If you go there rashly, not only will you fail to capture him, but you will also bring trouble upon yourself.
"No, I'll come back and tell you later." Xiao Yue looked at Shi Ye soothingly without further explanation.
Shi also pursed his lips, but did not pursue the matter further, and said softly: "Then you should come back early, and don't go to find Jiang Zishan by yourself."
Xiao Yue hummed lightly, his eyes soft and warm, as if a glacier had just melted. He turned the car around and left the compound.
Shiya watched him leave and was about to go back when he suddenly saw two people standing side by side and walking towards him.
She raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Xia Yun who was smiling slightly. She was still wearing a mask, but she looked a little different. In addition to the initial lively and bright eyes, they were now more affectionate, gentle and moving. Obviously, she had been blessed by the system again.
"Full of affection" may be just an idiom, but with the help of the system, looking at a man with such eyes will be full of affection, just like sending a wink, which will make the man's heart stir, thus achieving the purpose of the strategy.
In the early stages, "Affectionate" and "Delicate" are already excellent rewards, and the strategy will be twice as effective with half the effort.
For Shi Ye, who had owned a beauty-enhancing system in his previous life, he could see the clues from Xia Yun at a glance.
Obviously, the reward came from the young man next to her, oh, also an acquaintance, Pei Runnian.
Xia Yun was not so stupid as to be extremely stupid. She only thought about conquering Xiao Yue and completing the mission. She finally lived up to her expectations and thought about getting rewards from others. In the Naval Compound, the person who was most likely to get rewards was none other than the big bootlicker Pei Runnian. Unfortunately, no matter how poor Xia Yun was, she would never look down on Pei Runnian.
Whether in terms of family background or appearance, he is not as good as Jiang Zishan and Xiao Yue, and he is not even a spare tire.
On the other side, Xia Yun also saw Shiye. When she saw him, she immediately looked around with a guilty look. When she didn't see Xiao Yue, she breathed a sigh of relief, straightened her back, and snorted coldly at Shiye.
"What's wrong?" Pei Runnian saw that Xia Yun, who was smiling, immediately changed her expression, and looked in the direction her expression appeared.
When Pei Runnian saw Shiye, he frowned. He still remembered that when he met Xiao Yue and Shiye at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, the latter's words were obviously intended to sow discord. He said something like Xia Yun was about to marry Jiang Zishan. He had just asked, Xia Yun came back just to celebrate the New Year, what did she have to do with Jiang Zishan?
It was obvious that Shi also resented the past when he had isolated Xia Yun with the other boys from the compound.
"Xiao Yun, stay away from Shi Ye from now on. She doesn't have any good intentions." Pei Runnian said in a low voice.
When Xia Yun heard this, her eyes twinkled and she said with a smile, "Let's go and say hello to Xiaoye."
Pei Runnian was stunned and a little unhappy, but they had already encountered each other. Now Shi was somehow related to the Xiao family. Besides, she seemed to have a good relationship with Xiao Yue. They would see each other every day in the future, so it would not be good to really break up.
Pei Runnian thought so, restrained his expression, put on a smile, and followed Xia Yun towards Shiye.
Shi Ye did not turn around and leave, but stood there waiting for the two to come over. Before Xia Yun could speak, she smiled and said, "Today you said you were going out to see a friend. I thought you were going to see Jiang Zishan. After all, when you came back from the northwest, you traveled for so many days and rode in the same car, spending every day together. I didn't expect that you were going to see Comrade Pei Runnian."
"It just so happens that I plan to go find Jiang Zishan tomorrow. Xia Yun, do you want to go with me?" Shi also curled his lips and asked with a smile.
Hearing this, Xia Yun paused, and said with a smile: "Looking for Jiang Zishan? Do you dare to go?"
Pei Runnian looked at the two of them talking back and forth, all of which mentioned Jiang Zishan. He felt unhappy and took two steps forward. He looked at Shiye and said, "Comrade Shiye, I have already asked Xiaoyun and she will not marry Jiang Zishan. Don't say such things again in the future. It is not only bad for Comrade Jiang Zishan, but also affects Xiaoyun's reputation. Can you take responsibility for this?"
Shi was also surprised, but his expression was smiling, with some sarcasm: "But I clearly heard Xia Yun say it, how about we ask Jiang Zishan to come out tomorrow and verify it with him? Otherwise, you will think I am talking nonsense."
Seeing Shi Ye's confident look, Pei Runnian was stunned and subconsciously looked at Xia Yun.
"Comrade Pei, thank you for today. You go back first. I want to go home too." Xia Yun took a deep breath and did not explain the topic, nor did she respond to Shi Ye's words. Pei Runnian's heart skipped a beat and he had a bad feeling.
Could it be that Xiaoyun and Jiang Zishan really have some unknown relationship that they don’t want him to know?
At this moment, Pei Runnian couldn't tell whether he felt more proud or sad.
She was proud, of course, because Xia Yun was willing to hide her relationship with Jiang Zishan for her. She was sad, of course, because of her relationship with Jiang Zishan. No, it was impossible. It would not happen. She had clearly expressed her feelings to him today!
Pei Runnian felt more confident when he thought of Xia Yun's affectionate look and the way she exchanged glances with him today.
How could a woman look at a man like this if she didn't really like him?
Thinking of this, Pei Runnian did not listen to Xia Yun's words. He took a deep breath and mustered up his courage. He grabbed Xia Yun's hand, put it on his chest, and stared into her eyes: "Xiao Yun, we grew up together. We are almost the same age. My family is preparing a marriage for me, but, but I have always liked you!"
Pei Runnian became more and more excited as he spoke, and could not help but move closer to Xia Yun. His lips moved, and just as he was about to respond, Xia Yun shook his hand away. She frowned, took a step back, and looked like she wanted to cut off ties with him.
She said coldly, "Comrade Pei, I called you out today just to reminisce about the past. You also said that we grew up together, but I only have class feelings for you as comrades, not any other personal feelings. Please understand."
Hearing this, Pei Runnian felt as if he was struck by lightning. Looking at Xia Yun's heartless appearance, he felt sad and angry.
He grabbed Xia Yun's shoulders, shook her violently, and said angrily, "How could it be? If you don't like me, why do you look at me like that? Why do you want me to notice your feelings? Xiao Yun! You can't do this to me!"
