Chapter 101: Tears are about to fall
The young couple came to the county high school.
After Chen Xiang was carried down by Zhou Dongmeng, she just watched him park the car in a suitable location. She didn't need to worry about anything at all.
Moreover, she sat next to the stove all the way and didn't feel cold at all.
My hands are still warm.
Chen Xiang saw that the man had finished, so she walked over and looked up at him and asked, "Aren't you going to work today?"
Zhou Dong shook his head violently: "No."
She was curious: "Why? Is there no work on the construction site?"
Zhou Dong suddenly lifted the lid of the iron pot, picked up a spatula and turned out the baked sweet potatoes one by one. The aroma rose along with the hot steam and drifted to every corner of the street.
He just sighed and said in a depressed tone: "Your man offended the foreman and was fired."
“You were fired?”
Chen Xiang was extremely surprised, and it suddenly occurred to her that in his previous life, Zhou Dongmeng had indeed suddenly left the railway project.
Is this the reason?
Offended the foreman?
No wonder he was in such a low mood yesterday afternoon, it turned out he lost his job...
Chen Xiang believed what the man said, and her heart felt extremely uncomfortable, as if it was being gripped by an invisible hand. She felt sorry for him.
She went forward and hugged Zhou Dongmeng, wrapped her hands around his waist, patted his back gently, and coaxed him softly: "Okay, it's okay. It's easy to find a job now. Don't be sad..."
Zhou Dong smiled and tried to tease her: "I won't look for her anymore."
Chen Xiang raised her head from his arms, met the man's deep eyes, and asked, "Not looking for it anymore? What does that mean?"
His smile deepened: "You raise me."
“…”
Chen Xiang immediately let go of him and looked at him as if he were a stranger: "Brother, I don't even know you, why are you trying to claim we're related?"
Zhou Dong sighed: "Ah... I'm sad."
Chen Xiang blinked, pretended to be busy arranging sweet potatoes, and asked him carefully, "Are you really sad?"
"My tears are about to fall."
"It's a lie."
"I'm not lying to you. Come here and see for yourself if I'm about to cry."
As Zhou Dongmeng spoke, he lowered his waist slightly to make it easier for the girl to look into his eyes.
Chen Xiang hesitated for a moment, then turned around to look.
Zhou Dong suddenly found the right opportunity, lowered his head and kissed her lips hard. Both of their lips were very cold, and it was a little stinging when they touched each other suddenly.
Chen Xiang quickly took a step back and covered her lips with the back of her hand.
A pair of bright deer eyes stared at him with shame and annoyance, and he stamped his feet in anger: "You! You lied to me again!"
Zhou Dongmeng had a smile on his face.
Just as I opened my arms to hug her and comfort her, someone coughed behind me: "Ahem."
"Little comrade."
Old Xie's hoarse voice came from behind.
Before Chen Xiang could speak, Zhou Dongmeng turned around, a smile appeared on his sharp face, and he shouted, "Uncle Xie."
Seeing the unfamiliar young man in front of him calling him uncle so affectionately, Old Xie subconsciously narrowed his eyes and looked at him carefully: "Who are you——"
"Zhou Dongmeng."
“Ooooooh!”
As soon as he heard Zhou Dongmeng's name, he immediately remembered it and uttered "oh" several times in a row.
Old Xie looked surprised and said, "Oh, I haven't seen you for seven or eight years. You've changed. You've become darker and stronger. How are you? Which university did you go to? You must be an official somewhere now. You've always been promising!"
After listening to what the man said, Zhou Dongmeng still had a smile on his face.
"Uncle Xie, I joined the army right after I graduated from high school. I served for eight years and was discharged last summer. I am now working on a construction site."
