Chapter 126 Qi Jingchuan's palms were sweating with nervousness
“Cen Yan is a capitalist’s daughter, how could she be worthy of our upright and honorable Commander Qi? Forget it, anyway, this has nothing to do with us, and Qiu Xia doesn’t want to hear our thoughts, so let’s not say anything more,” Wang Manman chimed in.
Tang Qiuxia clenched her fists. "Does Brother Jingchuan really feel that this marriage is painful for him?"
"Otherwise, would you be happy if your parents and elders arranged a marriage for you, marrying a shameful capitalist's son?" Wang Manman and Pang Xiaoyue asked Tang Qiuxia in unison.
Tang Qiuxia seemed reassured: "Okay! I'll listen to you. What's your plan?"
Wang Manman and Pang Xiaoyue exchanged a smile, then waved to Tang Qiuxia, beckoning her over.
After listening to their whispered conversation, Tang Qiuxia's eyes flickered slightly. This was indeed a great idea!
Seeing Tang Qiuxia's expression, Wang Manman curled her lips in disdain. "Cen Yan, aren't you so great?"
I don't believe you didn't make a mistake while you were busy this time in the countryside!
…
After a day of driving and following the medical team to distribute medicine to villagers who were feeling unwell after the disaster, Cen Yan was so tired that her back almost broke, and she even sneezed twice!
"Cen Yan, you specifically told us to take good care of your health after going to the countryside, and not to fall ill in front of the people. Now look, you're the first one to sneeze. Are you getting a cold?"
Yang Mei drank a lot of ginger water, and now her body felt warm and cozy. She didn't feel anything wrong even after being busy for half a day. However, Cen Yan next to her showed symptoms first, and she couldn't help but tease her.
Cen Yan placed her slender fingers on her pulse and shook her head. "It's not a cold or flu. It must be someone talking about me behind my back."
Upon hearing this, Yang Mei nudged Cen Yan with her shoulder and winked, "That must be your husband. He knows you've gone to the countryside, so how could he be in the mood to help the villagers with the harvest? He's probably missing you terribly. It's all thanks to the production team for providing temporary accommodation for your husband; otherwise, it would have been so hard for you two to stay in a tent at night."
"You're not married yet, aren't you afraid of being overheard saying these things?" Cen Yan blushed. She hadn't consummated her marriage with Qi Jingchuan yet, so she couldn't experience the kind of unbearable feeling Yang Mei described.
Just then, out of the corner of her eye, Cen Yan caught sight of a tall, slender figure not far away, wearing the raincoat she had specially taken out, standing a dozen meters away, gazing at the medical team's tents, not moving any closer, as if waiting for her to come out.
"Meimei, please keep an eye on things here for now. Remember to keep an eye on the hot tea in the pot. If any fellow villagers or soldiers come over, please tell them to have a bowl to warm themselves up and prevent them from catching a cold. I'm going out for a bit."
Without waiting for Yang Mei's reply, Cen Yan ran straight towards the man while holding her umbrella.
"Qi..." Cen Yan was about to call his name when...
A woman's cheerful voice suddenly came from not far away, "Brother Jingchuan, I've come to bring you food!"
Cen Yan slowed her pace as she walked towards Qi Jingchuan. The smiles that had been involuntarily on the faces of the couple after being separated for several days gradually faded.
She has already confessed her relationship with Qi Jingchuan, yet Tang Qiuxia still wants to "knowingly become the other woman"?
Qi Jingchuan had a plan in mind, and after seeing Cen Yan's sudden coldness, he was momentarily stunned and waved his hand in a slightly flustered manner.
"No, I didn't do it, I'm not familiar with her!"
The man, who could remain calm even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, was now so nervous that his palms were sweating when he heard Tang Qiuxia call him "brother" in front of Cen Yan.
