Chapter 72 A sudden confession
"Ah? I... I was just saying it casually, it's nothing serious. My cousin didn't say anything..."
Su Luo felt inexplicably guilty and didn't dare to look into his eyes, as if if she looked at him for another second, he would suck her into his deep eyes.
"Answer me honestly!"
Qin Zhan released her wrist with one hand, but suddenly held her lower back and lifted her into his arms.
"ah……"
Su Luo couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise, her toes almost leaving the ground, her body suddenly pressed tightly against him, the soft part in front of her squeezed in his hard arms.
She suddenly raised her head, her heart was extremely panicked, and her eyes as clear as a deer were full of water.
Qin Zhan held her tightly, with no intention of letting her go. He even took her two steps forward and stopped at the table in front of the bed.
Su Luo felt her back hit the edge of the table, and the man's body followed closely. The shameful touch made her whole body stiffen.
"Speak!"
Qin Zhan held her in front of the desk and said he would not let her go unless he made things clear today.
Su Luo's heart was pounding and her head was a little dizzy. She could only tell the truth, "My cousin said that Qiao Qingqing wrote you a love letter. She likes you so much. She will definitely be your wife in the future."
I finally figured out what nonsense Jiang Hao said to the little girl!
"So, you think Qiao Qingqing and I have a relationship, so you deliberately treat me coldly?" Qin Zhan asked again.
"I'm not being cold to you on purpose, but I think you and Qiao Qingqing are a good match. If you can get married in the future, then don't be ambiguous with me anymore. I don't want to be entangled with other men like now. We have no relationship at all, why do you have to treat me like this, Brother Zhan?"
Su Luo poured out everything that was on her mind, just to let it all out.
"So that's why you're mad at me?"
Qin Zhan took two steps back and let go of Su Luo.
He finally understood what the little girl was thinking. It was because of Qiao Qingqing that she took it to heart, so now she didn't want to have anything to do with him and wanted to draw a clear line with him, right?
The man let go of Su Luo, and the feeling of oppression instantly dissipated. Su Luo secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Just talk, can you please stop teasing her all the time?
"You're such a fool, can't you see who I like?"
Qin Zhan couldn't help but point his finger at her forehead. Su Luo was criticized and pouted, a little unhappy.
She was telling the truth!
She also heard it from her eldest cousin, it’s not something she made up!
"Qiao Qingqing and I have nothing to do with each other. We never have, and we never will. You are the only one in my heart. Can't you feel it?"
Qin Zhan stared into Su Luo's eyes and explained to her seriously.
Su Luo was stunned. He said she was the only one in his heart?
Is this a confession to her?
"Are you listening carefully? I really want to pry open your little head and see what's inside."
Qin Zhan held her face and rubbed it. The little girl had good grades, but why was she so slow in emotions?
It seems like he hasn’t figured it out yet!
Is it because I’m too young?
"I see."
Su Luo really couldn't stand his big hands "torturing" her, he was going to crush her flat.
Doesn’t he know that his grip is so strong?
"Do you really know? I like you, and you are the only one who can be my Qin Zhan's wife. Do you know that? You fool!"
"I really understand..."
Su Luo blushed.
"Then do you still dare to quarrel with me?"
Qin Zhan pinched her cheek with his fingers again, gently punishing her for her misbehavior.
Su Luo tilted her head, frowned in pain, and raised her hand to open his hand.
“It hurts!”
She glanced at him angrily. Really, he always liked to pinch her cheeks until it hurt.
"Really? Let me rub it for you."
Qin Zhan pulled Su Luo over again, and used a gentler force with his fingers to caress her cheek.
The little girl's face is tender and white, without any flaws, like a piece of beautiful jade, making people love her.
"Stop rubbing it. I'm going to do the laundry."
Su Luo hurriedly pushed him away, rushed out from his side, picked up the dirty clothes and ran away.
She really didn't dare to be alone with him for a moment. She always felt that he was like a wolf who might tear her apart and eat her at any time.
Back in the yard, Su Luo's cheeks were still burning, and the places where the man had pinched and rubbed them were burning.
She touched her burning face with the back of her hand and forced herself to calm down.
The two of them had a lot of clothes and couldn't wash them all at home, so Su Luo put the clothes in a bamboo basket with water, took a basin and a soap stick, and planned to go to the river mouth to wash them.
Su Luo had seen most of the women in the village washing clothes at the river mouth. Her grandmother went there early every morning to wash.
There are stone steps there, the water is good, and it is convenient to wash clothes.
After saying hello to her grandmother, Su Luo went to the river mouth to wash clothes.
When I got here, before I even went down to the river bank, I heard the voices of several women chatting coming from the bottom of the river mouth.
"Isn't your woolen coat quite expensive?"
A woman asked, and the person who answered sounded like Ma Chunhua.
It was indeed Ma Chunhua's voice. I hadn't seen her for several days. Her burns were almost healed and she could come to the river mouth to wash things.
"Yes, sister-in-law, I bought it at the county department store last time. Each piece of clothing cost over a hundred yuan! I spent a lot of money!"
Ma Chunhua took out her only expensive woolen coat to wash it. It had become a little moldy after being placed in the cupboard, so she planned to take advantage of the hottest days of summer to dry it out in the sun.
Her daughter Li Zhenzhu's marriage has been finalized. She will marry a soldier in the army in Hexi. The wedding will be held in winter. She will wear this coat to save the occasion when her daughter gets married.
"Oh, your old Li is really generous to you. He even bought you such an expensive coat. Unlike my old Xiao, he has never been willing to buy me even half an inch of yarn in his entire life. He is so stingy."
The one complaining was Da Kunzi's mother. Da Kunzi's mother thought of something and asked again, "By the way, why did you and the old Jiang family quarrel last time?"
"It's all because of his granddaughter, the troublemaker. She was born to a strange man, but his family treats her like a treasure. What a piece of shit?" Ma Chunhua said disdainfully.
"The Jiang family doesn't have a daughter, so isn't that rare? I heard that all five uncles dote on that girl."
"Hmph, so what if I dote on her? She's still just a girl who's going to get married. That girl is really a tough nut to crack. If she hadn't been causing trouble in there, would my daughter's reputation have been ruined? It's all because of her scheming! If I were to say, this girl is a jinx. Ever since she came to Jiangjiaba, I've been plagued by bad luck. It's really unlucky!"
Ma Chunhua was chatting with Da Kun's mother, who didn't see the excitement at the time, and blamed Su Luo for the ruin of her daughter's reputation.
Su Luo stood on the river dam, staring coldly at Ma Chunhua who was slandering her below.
She didn't go down, just stared at her without blinking.
"Sister-in-law, let's stop chatting. I'm done washing. You can take your time. I'm going back first."
Ma Chunhua had just washed her woolen coat and stood up with the basket in her arms when she felt a gust of evil wind blowing towards her, causing her feet to slip and she fell into the river.
"ah……"
