Because of the uneven road, Xue Yanchen dared not ride too fast, fearing that Luo Jingyan would be too bumpy behind him. The journey from the county town to Shengli Brigade, which was originally twenty miles, took him almost an hour, which shows how slow he was.
Neither the cyclists nor the passengers felt it was slow. The two of them rode on one bike along the winding dirt road, creating a picturesque scene with the fallen leaves of the poplar trees on both sides of the road.
When they arrived at the gate of the Shengli Brigade's educated youth settlement, Luo Jingyan jumped off her bicycle, and Xue Yanchen stopped the bike and pushed it into the educated youth compound.
When the other educated youth at the settlement saw Xue Yanchen pushing a women's bicycle, they knew without a doubt that it belonged to Luo Jingyan. So, they started discussing who had paid for the bicycle. Several female educated youths, in particular, were extremely enthusiastic about this gossip. The topics of discussion were nothing more than who bought the bicycle, whether Xue Yanchen bought it for Luo Jingyan, or whether Luo Jingyan bought it herself. After a few minutes, they still hadn't come to any conclusion.
Zhuang Feifei didn't participate in the discussion, but she was extremely agitated. In this book, she was the female lead, and she was richer than Luo Jingyan, yet Luo Jingyan had a bicycle before her. If it weren't for this, she wouldn't have thought about buying a bicycle. Once she made a fortune on the black market, she would buy an even better bicycle than Luo Jingyan's.
Xue Yanchen had eaten here, and in order not to disturb Luo Jingyan's afternoon nap, he cleared away the dishes and prepared to leave.
He walked out of the educated youth compound empty-handed. Luo Jingyan caught up with him and said, "Brother Xue, the bicycle is still inside."
Xue Yanchen smiled and said, "That bicycle was actually bought for you."
Luo Jingyan had already guessed most of it; Xue Yanchen had indeed bought the car for her.
He refused to admit it at the supply and marketing cooperative, probably because he was afraid she wouldn't accept it.
"Brother Xue, this gift is too precious."
The man said seriously, "Jingyan, from the moment I decided to date you, I wanted to give you my best. I'm happier than anything if you can accept what I buy for you. It's just a car, not a very expensive gift, so don't feel guilty."
Luo Jingyan nodded, acknowledging his words and the gift he had given her.
"Wait here, I'll take you home on my bike."
"Okay." The man was overjoyed and obediently waited outside.
Luo Jingyan pushed the bike out, glanced down at his long legs, and finally gave up the idea of giving him a ride. She handed him the handlebars and said, "You give me a ride. I'll ride the bike back when we get to the Forward Brigade."
"OK."
As soon as Luo Jingyan returned to the educated youth settlement after seeing Xue Yanchen off, Jiang Manyue, Sun Tiantian, and a few others immediately gathered around her.
Jiang Manyue teased, "Jingyan, your boyfriend is so good to you, he even bought you a bicycle."
Sun Tiantian said, "Jingyan is so lucky to have found such a good partner."
Luo Jingyan joked with them, "Aren't you all envious? You should hurry up and find someone so they can buy you a car."
The two shook their heads. "We're not as lucky as you. We haven't met our true love yet."
Luo Jingyan chatted with them for a while, then pushed the car into the house.
When Luo Changtian saw the bicycle in Luo Jingyan's room after school, he was very surprised: "Sis, you bought a bicycle? I've never heard you say you wanted to buy a bicycle before?"
"I didn't buy it; Brother Xue bought it for me."
"Brother Xue? Sis, you mean the bicycle Brother Xue bought for you?"
"Um."
"Sis, Brother Xue is so good to you. Didn't you say you wouldn't pretend to be his girlfriend anymore? Could it be that you two are really dating this time?"
"Yes, this time it's not a joke, but we're not officially dating yet. Do you think Brother Xue would be a good fit to be your brother-in-law?"
“Perfect, perfect, Brother Xue is so great.” Luo Changtian grinned, revealing his four front teeth. “Sis, it would be wonderful if you two could really be a couple. I really like Brother Xue.”
Luo Jingyan reached out and ruffled his hair: "Looks like I have to date him for my brother's sake, otherwise, I'll disappoint you too much."
Luo Changtian chuckled: "The key is that you have to like it, right?"
His eyes were fixed on the brand-new handlebars, and he asked Luo Jingyan, "Sister, can I learn to ride?"
"It's getting late, and I still need to cook. I'll go for a ride with you for a while and then we'll come back. You can study however you want on Sunday."
"Thank you, sister." Luo Changtian smiled mischievously. "I also want to thank my future brother-in-law, but unfortunately he can't hear me. Sister, please pass on my thanks to Brother Xue when you see him."
"knew."
Luo Jingyan held the bicycle for Luo Changtian in the educated youth compound and let him practice for a while. Before long, Luo Changtian learned to practice independently. Luo Jingyan went back to the house to cook a meal, and only then did he stop and push the bicycle back into the house.
Two days later, several uninvited guests arrived at the educated youth settlement.
Luo Jingyan was curled up on the heated kang bed, petting her cat. In the courtyard, Cheng Tianming and another policeman in a white uniform had parked their bicycles. There was also a middle-aged man in a gray Zhongshan suit and black-rimmed glasses, who was also riding a bicycle.
The educated youth were somewhat frightened by the sight of such a scene.
They were terrified that the police were there to arrest them, but then they realized they hadn't done anything wrong. So they started speculating wildly about which of the educated youth had committed a crime and was about to be arrested by the police.
Tong Jianxin, as the person in charge of the educated youth settlement, quickly came out and walked up to Cheng Tianming, asking, "Police officers, what brings you here?"
It shouldn't be any educated youth who made a mistake, otherwise it would not only affect the reputation of the educated youth settlement, but the educated youth might also be implicated and criticized.
Cheng Tianming said, "We are here to find Luo Jingyan, the educated youth from here."
Everyone else breathed a sigh of relief when they heard him mention Luo Jingyan's name.
It turns out the police were there to arrest Luo Jingyan.
But what exactly did Luo Jingyan do wrong?
In particular, both Lin Shanshan and Zhuang Feifei wanted to know what bad things Luo Jingyan had done and wanted to see her arrested by the police. Lin Shanshan's motivation was hatred for Luo Jingyan, while Zhuang Feifei simply wanted to see anyone make a fool of themselves. She felt inexplicably superior and happy when others were having a bad time.
Tong Jianxin said, "You're looking for Luo Zhiqing, may I ask what you want to see her for?"
His expression was very cautious, yet also showed a hint of sympathy for Luo Jingyan, almost as if he wanted to find out what Luo Jingyan had done wrong.
Cheng Tianming seemed to sense his nervousness and said with a smile, "Don't misunderstand, and don't be afraid. We're not here to arrest Luo Zhiqing, but to commend her. Where is she now?"
Tong Jianxin also breathed a sigh of relief. He pointed to Luo Jingyan's house and said, "She lives in there. I'll go over and call her."
He stood outside Luo Jingyan's door, not intending to knock or go in, but instead shouted, "Luo Jingyan, the police are looking for you outside. Come out for a moment."
Upon hearing the call, Luo Jingyan immediately put Pang Hu into her spatial storage, leaving Hei Hu nestled in the blankets, before getting out of bed and opening the door.
Upon seeing Cheng Tianming in the courtyard, she quickly went outside.
