Chapter 49: The Desire Is Not the Courage



Seeing that everything was fine on her side, Lu Xiao went back to work.

A little while later, Feng Huining came out clutching her belly. She was having her period, and her face was as pale as a ghost. "I thought I heard someone talking over here just now. Are you okay?"

"I'm fine. Are you okay? Take a rest for half a day. You look too bad." Jiang Wanwan asked with concern.

Feng Huining chuckled twice. "I was just about to tell you that I can't accompany you today. My husband asked me to go home and rest. Do you have any problem staying alone? Or I can find you a companion."

Jiang Wanwan rolled her eyes. "Alright, alright, I'm just worrying about nothing. Go away and drink some brown sugar water when you get home."

It has to be said that it is easy to get an official position if you have someone in the court. Jiang Wanwan is jealous of such a small captain position.

Everyone had left, and Jiang Wanwan went into the cornfield alone. There was no one around, but there was a rustling sound in the distance.

She has been in the cornfield more often these days, and she doesn't seem to be so scared as long as she knows there are people around.

After getting off work and returning home, Jiang Wanwan rushed to the chicken coop again. Although she had more eggs than she could eat in her two-bedroom apartment, she could also buy eggs at the market. Neither of them could stop her enthusiasm for picking eggs.

But today she was disappointed. The old hen saw her clucking happily and begging for food as usual, but there was not even a shadow of an egg in the chicken coop.

Jiang Wanwan didn't believe it and searched along the chicken coop, almost finding a crack in the rock.

Lu Xiao came over with chicken feed. Seeing her frown and deep worry, he guessed what was going on. He put down the feed and said to her, "Chickens don't like to lay eggs when it's cold. From now on, they may only lay one egg every two or three days, or even not at all all winter."

"Ah? No snow all winter?"

It was a bolt from the blue. What's the fun in raising chickens then?

Jiang Wanwan pointed at the hen and said viciously, "Come out another one in two days at most, or I'll stew you with mushrooms."

“Chuckle…chuckle…”

The old hen flapped its wings and turned to eat the chicken feed, with its butt facing her.

Jiang Wanwan: “…”

Is it making me eat farts?

Lu Xiao was amused by this person and the chicken. He found that every day with Jiang Wanwan was full of energy and enthusiasm. He reached out and took the woman's hand and walked towards the front yard. "If you like raising chickens, wait until next spring. Let's buy a few more chicks, stew mushrooms with the rooster, and lay eggs with the hens."

"I also want to raise two pigs. I remember that the team allows members to raise pigs, right? We have a big backyard, so we can build a pigpen."

Lu Xiao looked at her beautiful eyes and eyebrows and nodded lightly.

Because of his bad background, they wouldn't even let them raise chickens, let alone pigs, in the past few years.

Now the policy has been relaxed a lot, raising chickens is not a problem, as for raising pigs... if it doesn't work, he will find a way to satisfy her wish.

Jiang Wanwan washed her hands and face, combed her hair again, and changed her dirty clothes.

In order to get into the cornfield, she put on the original owner's thick army green clothes. Although it was a bit hot, she would rather keep it that way than get scratched.

I found a blue plaid shirt and just took it off when a man's voice came over, "Do you want rice or noodles for dinner? I..."

As the door curtain opened, the voice stopped abruptly, and the curtain was immediately lowered. The voice was a little flustered, "I'm sorry, I... I'll go cook."

Jiang Wanwan: “…”

Watching the man running away made me laugh and cry. Did he realize the relationship between them?

After getting dressed, Jiang Wanwan went to the kitchen. The man was making a fire. When he heard her footsteps, he almost rushed into the kitchen.

Even when they were eating, the man didn't even look at her.

Jiang Wanwan put a piece of food into her mouth, and her little feet moved under the table little by little until they touched the man's feet, neither lightly nor heavily.

At the other end of the table, the man's body suddenly tensed up. He sat up straight, but still lowered his head to shovel food into his mouth.

He ate his rice quite quickly, as if he was extremely hungry.

Jiang Wanwan pursed her lips, and just as she was about to reach the man's ankle with her small feet, her big feet retracted first.

Jiang Wanwan: “…”

What a clueless person.

"Lu Xiao, are you hiding something from me today?" The voice was soft, and seemed to carry a hint of grievance.

Lu Xiao was stunned by the question. He looked up in confusion, then lowered his eyes again with food still stuffed in his mouth. He replied vaguely, "No."

"Did I make you unhappy today?"

He shook his head firmly, "No."

"But you didn't talk to me the whole day, you didn't even look at me. Do you know what you call this? Cold violence, or are you saying I'm ugly and you're tired of seeing me?"

Lu Xiao was startled and quickly raised his head, "I...I didn't." When he met the girl's gaze, he couldn't help but think of the scene he had just seen.

Jiang Wanwan held her chin, her eyes curved. "So, do you think I'm good-looking? It seems like you've never commented on me in all the time we've been together. Lu Xiao, do you know? From the first moment I saw you, I thought you were super handsome."

She recalled the first time they met. The room was a little dark and she couldn't see clearly, but she was still deeply impressed.

"Your eyebrows are very deep, and I just wonder how affectionate such eyes would be when they look at someone. Your lips are also beautiful. People say that men with thin lips are not affectionate, but I think they are just right. And your figure is also good, full of strength, giving people a complete sense of security. And the muscles, chest muscles, abdominal muscles, back muscles... Every muscle is like a carefully carved by a craftsman, and even a little more or less would not be enough to show their beauty..."

She became more and more excited as she spoke, and was getting into the mood, but she didn't notice that the man opposite her was blushing a little with every word she said. But the little woman's expression as she was lost in memories made him unable to take his eyes off her.
