Chapter 31 Chapter 31 Lu Yanlin’s Brain…
Lu Yanlin's mind exploded.
A sudden surge of jealousy made him want to go in and stop them immediately, using a ruler to strictly separate the two of them. You sat back in your seat, and he returned to his.
But imagine that he suddenly appeared in front of Jin Man, the expression on Jin Man's face would definitely not be surprise.
So he stopped where he was, his high-end leather shoes covered in mud because of the owner's uncontrollable pacing.
When they divorced, they broke up, and Jin Man didn't want anything. He had thought that was foolish and stupid, not the first rational choice. Now that thought had become a nail, piercing him like a frog, pinning him to the spot. His past self stared at him through his memory and shouted at him:
You have no right and no qualifications to interfere in another person's life.
Lu Yanlin stopped where he was, and the Alpha in the yard burst into happy laughter, the sense of relief was indescribable.
Has he ever smiled at himself like that?
It seems not.
Jin Man would be shy, sad, and occasionally a little lost and worried, but in the yard he was happy and lively, like a bird in its nest, chirping and swaying.
They were separated by a fence, and Lu Yanlin also built a fence.
He remembered the tone he used when he called the gardener. He couldn't sleep, nor did he want to sleep. His stomach was filled with countless moths. He lost his senses and stared at the locked door, saying coldly that he never wanted to see that building again.
He fenced the small building into a box and threw the key far away.
What's wrong with this?
The deserted yard will be overgrown with weeds day by day, fade in the corners, and eventually become a ruin that no one cares about.
The fence blocked everything out.
Yes, the fence blocks everything out.
But the spring that will never come is not inside the hedge, but outside it, just like a pizza box that you think is full of flies, but actually contains beautiful butterflies.
There are all kinds of things in Jinman's yard, which is definitely not something that one person can pile up. They are crowded together, messy and untidy, or in other words - very lively.
Above the chicken coop made of unknown plants, there are several wind chimes made of glass bottles, buckets, express boxes, hoes, backpacks, and a newly painted bookshelf. The light bulb is hung under the eaves with a clothes hanger, attracting a few small flying insects.
There was no stench of decay or mud in the yard. In the bucket were many rose stalks, with scattered buds. They probably had no purpose, but were just for the owner's enjoyment, because Lu Yanlin heard the strange man say to Jin Man: "Your foot is injured. Don't plant flowers tomorrow. They won't survive in the summer. Plant some garlic instead."
Jin Man hugged his knees, rolled over, and sat up suddenly: "I won't die!"
He tried to explain that his decision was correct. He hopped around with a limp on one leg and took out fertilizer and rooting water from the corner... The rest was too dark to see clearly. In short, he prepared a lot of things for planting flowers and looked as if there would be absolutely no problem.
However, the stranger touched his chin and commented coldly: "It's better to grow garlic."
Jin Man reached out and grabbed the passing puppy, covered its ears, and said with a look on his face, "How could this be? It's impossible. You are about to scare those half-dead roses to death."
He shook his head like a rattle, muttering, "I don't grow garlic." He argued that his roses wouldn't die, and as an example, he pointed to the fence, which was covered with lush bean pods and morning glories: "Look, brother, I planted that when I was twenty."
The people outside the fence couldn't help but take a step back, feeling cold all over and away from the lush flowers.
The puppy barked twice, agreeing with Alpha's statement. It turned over and exposed its belly pitifully, and whimpered when Jin Man tickled it.
The stranger flicked away a flying firefly and lit a cigarette. The vibrant summer trees and the burning tobacco blended into a pleasant aroma.
The stranger dusted off his cigarette, stepped around the puppy at his feet, and swatted a mosquito off his thigh. "Roses would be great for flower cakes, too."
Jin Man was surprised and said, "Brother, can you make pastries?"
The man, holding a cigarette, said: "I can't."
Jin Man: “…”
He sat on a bamboo chair and looked up to see the high-hanging glass bottle wind chimes. When the wind blew, the glass bottles collided with each other, making an incredibly pleasant sound.
"Okay, I'm going back."
After treating Jin Man's foot injury, the eldest brother wanted to go back to rest. Before leaving, he held a cigarette in his mouth and picked the cucumbers that Jin Man had raised for two days.
He saw footprints on the ground and smelled the pheromone scent in the wind, which was ethereal, cold and quiet, like a half-opened lotus in the cold mist.
If it were in the past, Jin Man would be able to smell this pheromone when it was close to him, but after the operation, the wound did not heal well and he could not feel the pheromone.
His acquired disability made him have a completely unaware happiness.
The eldest brother felt very strange. He followed the footprints for a while and saw a man carrying a box at the other end of the path. He was walking very slowly and did not look like a villager.
The sky gradually darkened and he couldn't see clearly, so he didn't pay any attention.
Jin Man had hung mugwort and cattails around the house to keep mosquitoes away. Since he didn't have to work tomorrow, he didn't need to go to bed early. He cut a few roses, put them in a glass vase, and watered it.
These days he has been following his elder brother to help in the orchard on the mountain. Liuhe Town has good water and fertile soil, and the citrus fruits grown there are juicy and sweet, and are quite famous.
The salary my boss gives me is not high, but it is enough to support myself.
Jin Manting was very happy and worked very hard. He was so tired that he fell asleep as soon as he lay down every day.
When he was bagging the last few hundred trees, he lost his balance and fell from the tree.
He fell in a dangerous position and the eldest brother was so scared that he almost fainted. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and grabbed the vines, so he didn't roll to the bottom of the slope.
Jin Man took two eggs from the chicken coop when he suddenly heard a sound behind him. He turned around and the eggs almost fell to the ground.
"Lu Yanlin?"
The look of surprise on his face was greater than joy. He subconsciously looked around, but didn't see anyone. His elder brother had already gone home. The yard was quiet, and the puppy was sleeping soundly in the chicken coop.
Jin Man never thought about seeing her ex-husband again, even when she was cleaning out the chicken coop and had chicken feathers hanging all over her body.
He hadn't showered today and was covered in sweat. There was mud on his arms, hands, and even under his fingernails.
But this is not the Lu family, and Jin Man's nervousness and embarrassment were instantly suppressed.
He opened his lips, limped on one foot, and asked him: "You...what's wrong with you?"
Seeing how hard he was trying, Lu Yanlin reached out his hand to him. Jin Man was startled and quickly stepped back. His foot injury wasn't serious, and he could barely walk a few steps. He couldn't take care of it at this moment, so he half-supported his body and said, "No, no."
He waved his hands repeatedly, but the range of his avoidance was too large, so Lu Yanlin took half a step back. Only then did Jin Man stand firm and stop resisting.
"Is there something wrong?"
The first thing Jin Man thought of was the buttons and gems he had lost. He paid part of the money as compensation, but it might not be enough, or there might be something suspicious about the luggage he packed and took away.
Among his friends there is a thief who has robbed Lu Mansion. If you put yourself in his shoes, his own character is probably also questionable.
Maybe he took something valuable with him when he left.
Jin Man didn't know why Lu Yanlin appeared. He had no money, only this house and land. This was not the common property of the couple. Other things had been divided and cleared out long ago. Could there be anything else?
Lu Yanlin saw that Jin Man's relaxed expression was wiped out, as if he was dragged to the battlefield, a soldier surrounded by enemies on all sides, facing thousands of troops, his armor was obviously tattered, but he had to continue fighting, which was difficult to sustain.
His greeting got stuck in his throat, and the tightness in his chest made him feel uncomfortable.
Lu Yanlin exhaled lightly, slowed down his voice, and said calmly: "You are injured, sit down first."
Jin Man stared at him, unable to figure out the reason. He emphasized to Lu Yanlin, "I didn't take anything from the Lu Mansion when I left. I asked my lawyer to return the key. Did you lose something? You can call the police."
Lu Yanlin seemed to have been hit on the head with a stick. His smile froze and it was not obvious, but something went wrong with the precision equipment, and the subsequent operation was chaotic and disorganized.
The prepared speech I had prepared on the way was burned to ashes by this sentence.
He knew that he couldn't let this topic continue like this. He had to say something to pull him out of the suffocating feeling. Otherwise, he would definitely groan and stand there stupidly.
Among the many chaotic thoughts, he calmly pulled out a small thread.
"I came to see you because of something else."
He calmly put down the gift he brought and said to Jin Man, "After notarization, your certificate was not sent out and is still at Lu Mansion."
Jin Man breathed a sigh of relief. He found a hoe and used it as a crutch. Finally, a look of relief appeared on his face. "Is it a divorce certificate?"
Lu Yanlin slowly stood up and adjusted the angle of the gift: "Yes."
Jin Man uttered an "oh" and looked at him hesitantly. He couldn't find a topic to start with, so he continued with Lu Yanlin's words: "...Then, uh, could you please deliver it to me today...?"
Lu Yanlin was silent for a moment, gently brushing away the fireflies that flew to his chest. His face was indifferent, his eyes were deep, and others could not see his stiffness. He stood there for a moment, stunned, and explained: "I forgot to bring it."
Jin Man felt that this matter was a bit too strange.
Lu Yanlin couldn't have come here on purpose. He was not smart and always guessed wrong in the past. Now he felt that if he couldn't figure something out, he simply shouldn't think about it. Lu Yanlin had always been calm and restrained, and always knew what he wanted to do.
Since he said so, Jin Man should believe it.
So he nodded in understanding and said in a friendly manner: "Okay, go back and express it to me."
He pointed at the gift and said to Lu Yanlin: "I can't accept this. Please take it away. Don't be polite to me."
