Lan Yao had just planted this batch of vegetable seeds and used her spiritual power to connect with the Spirit Spring Well to irrigate the ground.
Someone knocked on the car window. Lan Yao opened her eyes and saw a stranger. She asked warily, "What is it?"
The person said, "Your boyfriend asked me to tell you that it's his turn, so hurry up and go in."
Lan Yao: ...
It hasn't been that long, it feels like only ten minutes or so.
Lan Yao hummed in agreement: "...I understand."
After the man left, Lan Yao opened the car door and got out. After making sure the car was locked, she slowly walked to the vicinity of the state-run restaurant.
She glanced over and, sure enough, it was already Gu Zixiao's turn in the queue.
Gu Zixiao stood out conspicuously among the dark-skinned crowd, practically a crane among chickens.
What's even more interesting is that Gu Zixiao was surrounded by several men, whose eyes lit up and who exchanged flirtatious glances when they looked at her.
Unfortunately, Gu Zixiao's expression was cold, and she didn't bother to look at them at all.
Lan Yao felt that if it weren't for the fact that he was going to treat her to dinner here, Gu Zixiao wouldn't have been able to leave the queue because of the waiting.
Gu Zixiao probably already raised her fist at those men.
Yu Suanpan chuckled and said, "Hehehe, I thought those beauty creams we used were no longer effective. I didn't expect them to really work their magic now."
The jade Pixiu sighed, "But Gu Zixiao will be our master's man in the future. What if this makes our master upset?"
Yu Suanpan rolled her eyes and said irritably, "That's easy. We'll just make Gu Zixiao look bad then."
Anyway, it has plenty of medicine powder here.
Jade Pixiu: ...
You're amazing!
The jade Pixiu shut its mouth and stopped talking.
Gu Zixiao was getting impatient when he turned around and saw Lan Yao standing not far away watching the commotion.
Gu Zixiao felt both helpless and wronged. Honestly, he was being harassed by other strange men, and as his husband, how could Lan Yao just stand by and watch? It was so unfair of her.
Gu Zixiao waved to Lan Yao, signaling him to come over quickly. At the same time, he coldly addressed the men who were pestering him, saying, "See that pretty girl? That's my girlfriend! My girlfriend is much more powerful than me! I'm just a freeloader. If she catches me doing something wrong, I don't care, but her fists don't discriminate."
"Are you kidding me? How can you lie? She's just a woman; one punch from any of us guys could take her down."
"That's right. That girl is so thin and weak, and her whole body looks limp. She obviously doesn't have any strength. If we just give her a little push, she'll fall to the ground and won't get up."
"Hey, brother, don't be afraid, we'll protect you."
"Yeah, what are you chickening out for? We have so many brothers around us."
...
Lan Yao walked over and saw the group chatting happily with Gu Zixiao. She smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to be so popular. Should I congratulate you?"
Before she could finish speaking, Gu Zixiao pulled her close and leaned against her, looking pitiful as he said to Lan Yao, "Wife, you have to help me. These people are really scary, they keep bothering me. I've already told them I don't want them anymore. I'm your woman, how can I do anything to betray you?"
The men who were clinging to Gu Zixiao were immediately enraged when they saw her being so cautious and looking so aggrieved.
They pointed at Lan Yao's nose and cursed at her.
"What's wrong with you, woman? How can you let a man act like a little girl? Just how harsh are you at home?"
"Hey sir, I think you'd better not be with this woman anymore. Look at you, you've lost all your masculinity."
"Lady, I advise you to leave this man, or I'll call the police."
"Lady, as a woman, you should just be a good wife and mother. How can you treat a man like this? No, we need to call the police."
Lan Yao: ...
Are you all out of your minds?
Lan Yao glared at Gu Zixiao and said coldly, "Gu Zixiao, you're really something, actually trying to outsmart me."
Gu Zixiao looked innocent: "I'm telling the truth. I am your woman. So please help me, honey. I'm really scared."
Lan Yao: "...I don't care. You made this trouble yourself, so you have to deal with it."
Gu Zixiao: "Really, you don't care?"
"It couldn't be more real."
Gu Zixiao looked disappointed: "...Alright then. It'll be our turn soon. You stand here for a while, I'll go deal with them, so you won't be unable to eat later, I'll feel bad for you."
Lan Yao: ...
Oh my god!
The hairs on her body stood on end, and goosebumps followed. Lan Yao even shuddered involuntarily.
I can't take it anymore, I really can't stand it.
Jade Pixiu: "If Master really can't stand it anymore, you can leave. I feel that Master can leave at any time."
Lan Yao: "Didn't you hear what I told Gu Zixiao before? Even if I want to run away, I won't be happy if I always have a tagalong following me around."
Besides, he has no grudge against me, so I can't do anything immoral, can I?
Besides, I don't want to leave this place. If I can hold on for a few years, better days will come.
Besides, I'm worried about leaving Grandma alone.
Jade Pixiu: "Since the master has made up his mind, then so be it."
In a way, the jade Pixiu felt that its owner was a simple and kind person.
Yu Suanpan: "It's alright. Let's see how things go first. If things really don't go well, I'll figure out a way to make Gu Zixiao unconscious."
Lan Yao waved her hand: "Never mind, he's fine as he is. Well, at least he's better than when I first met him."
The jade Pixiu keenly sensed something and tentatively asked, "Master, your feelings towards him have changed."
Lan Yao: "Really? It's just that in such a turbulent time, the arrival of an interesting person can add some fun to life."
Jade Pixiu: "Master, I remember you said you didn't want to get married."
Lan Yao: "Of course."
Jade Pixiu: ...
It felt that such a thing was unlikely!
It just had such a strong premonition.
Gu Zixiao had already returned by then. His upper clothes were a little disheveled. As soon as Gu Zixiao walked up to Lan Yao, he leaned on Lan Yao's shoulder with a wronged expression and complained, "Comrade Lan, it's all your fault for not helping me. I'm so tired. How are you going to make it up to me later?"
Lan Yao shoved his head away, her face unfriendly: "Give you two big pockets?"
Gu Zixiao smiled and moved her face closer: "Go ahead and hit me if you want. You're used to it anyway."
Lan Yao: ...
Lan Yao didn't want to deal with this pervert because she felt that Gu Zixiao might be enjoying it.
