Chapter 132 The Fish is in the Net
He rested his chin on the crook of Jiang Cha's neck.
During this period, the weather was getting warmer day by day, and Jiang Cha had long since taken off her turtleneck sweater and changed into a small V-neck dress.
Huo Jingchuan's nose was pressed against her ear, and his warm breath sprayed on her neck.
Wet, hot, and itchy.
The skin on Jiang Cha's area was a little sensitive, so she shrank her neck.
"Can you please stand still so we can talk?"
"don't want."
Huo Jingchuan continued to bury his head in the crook of her neck, "If you don't give me a definite answer today, I will have no choice but to talk to you like this."
She hid every time, which made him very nervous and his heart felt like it was being scratched by a cat.
Now, he can't even listen to people with the surname Zhang.
Every time I hear this surname, my heart starts pounding.
"I kicked him, and you're with me? If this gets out, what will people say about me?"
"Then what should I do?"
Huo Jingchuan sat in a wheelchair, looking like a abandoned dog by its owner, so pitiful.
"Cha Cha, can't you just pity me?"
Jiang Cha felt that she really needed to have a good talk with Huo Jingchuan.
"Huo Jingchuan, if something more serious happens to you in the future, will you push me away again?"
"If I wasn't sure I could cure you, if you didn't notice that your legs were healing day by day, would you still say this to me?"
"Actually, I'm a very timid person. I can't stand you pushing me away, and I can't bear the feeling of being pushed away by you again."
How did I get through those two months after leaving the family compound?
I still don’t dare to think about Jiang Cha.
"Huo Jingchuan, what I want is a lover who will stand firm and walk hand in hand with me no matter what happens. Can you really do that?"
Huo Jingchuan opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't find his voice.
He really can't do it.
When he knew that there was no hope of healing his leg, he was thinking about how to push Jiang Cha away.
Ji Zhixu advised him.
Old Huo also advised him.
But he insisted on imposing his behavior, which he thought was good for Jiang Cha, on Jiang Cha, and never asked her what she thought.
"Are you sure Zhang Keda can do it?"
His voice seemed to come from the distant sky, light, dry, and a little unreal.
Jiang Cha avoided his gaze.
"This is between me and Dada."
Huo Jingchuan thought about the question Jiang Cha raised for several days.
The more I think about it, the more I feel that this is the most difficult question in the world.
In the past two days, Huo Jingchuan has reached the point where he has to slap himself twice in bed in the middle of the night.
Jiang Cha, however, seemed to be fine. She continued to cook, wash clothes, give acupuncture to Huo Jingchuan, boil medicine, accompany him in rehabilitation exercises, and continue to read in her spare time.
Huo Jingchuan couldn't remain calm at all.
His eyes were glued to Jiang Cha.
During the day, there were only the two of them at home, and Huo Jingchuan's eyes would turn almost wherever Jiang Cha went.
Their lives seem to be no different, yet nothing seems to be different.
What made Huo Jingchuan most uneasy was that he discovered that Jiang Cha seemed to really only regard him as a brother.
Jiang Cha took a feather duster and swept the dust on the bookshelf.
For a full twenty-five minutes, her eyes never fell on him.
"Chacha, are you home?"
Jiang Cha heard He Meishan's voice.
She put down the feather duster in her hand.
"I'm here, Aunt He, what's going on?"
The door was open. He Meishan confirmed that Jiang Cha was at home before coming in to talk to her.
"Every April, our Chuncheng Army organizes a charity event, and the people in the family compound cooperate. I had discussed it with your mother and she was going to participate, but I didn't expect this to happen to her..."
He Meishan didn't elaborate further, but patted Jiang Cha's hand.
"I was thinking, your medical skills are quite good. This year we're going to the Happy Home run by the People's Commune. There are many elderly people there who are unable to take care of themselves and have no one to take care of them. You can go there and check up on those elderly people."
"What do you mean? Just give me a definite answer. If you go, you can just take your mother's place. If you don't go, I'll cross your name off."
There is a fixed number of people going there, after all, they all take the bus together.
Only after determining the number of people can we book a vehicle, and trivial matters such as lunch also require a specific item.
Jiang Cha finally looked at Huo Jingchuan.
The time has come.
Jiang Cha nodded and said, "Yes, this is a good thing. Of course I will go."
"Okay, then I'll change your mother's name to yours, and the quota won't change!"
"Sure, please Aunt He!"
"What's the trouble? We should be the ones bothering you."
He Meishan didn't stay long after she finished her business.
Ever since Commander Huo and Ye Surong were demoted, she felt an indescribable discomfort in her heart every time she saw the children of the Huo family.
The next morning, Jiang Cha treated Huo Jingchuan early and prepared his meals at home. Then, on time, he boarded the military bus to Chuncheng Happiness Home.
The Happy Home is a living security center set up by the state specifically to care for elderly people who have lost their only child.
This is a new policy that was introduced in the past two years.
Because it is a new policy that has just been implemented, many facilities are not perfect.
Every year, new recruits will be assigned such a task.
Give the elderly a bath, cut their hair, trim their nails, repair broken furniture, cook, etc.
There are many elderly people with difficulty walking, so Jiang Cha specially prepared a lot of plasters in advance and also carried a needle bag with him to provide timely treatment to these elderly people.
When she was busy, she didn't have time to think too much.
Whenever she had free time, she would involuntarily think of Huo Jingchuan at home.
I don’t know how he is doing at home alone?
In fact, Huo Jingchuan was not at home.
As soon as Jiang Cha left, Ji Zhixu pushed him away as well.
Under the pretext of taking him to the hospital for a follow-up visit, Huo Jingchuan was dragged into the military hospital.
Once they left, the house was completely deserted.
"Do you think they will choose today to take action?"
Huo Jingchuan, who was on a temporary assignment in the army, was calmer than anyone else, but this made Ji Zhixu, a psychologist, very anxious.
"Yes, after today, they won't have a chance."
Huo Jingchuan had come up with many ideas for this trick, but unfortunately, his leg was not healed yet and he could not personally participate in this operation.
Ji Zhixu bumped into his shoulder.
"How are you and Sister Chacha..."
Huo Jingchuan suddenly became discouraged.
"I feel like I really don't have a chance."
"How is that possible? As long as sister Cha Cha likes you, everything is possible."
Huo Jingchuan looked at Ji Zhixu helplessly.
"First, she has a boyfriend, and second..."
Huo Jingchuan sighed: "I think I really hurt her."
When the little girl first came to Ji's house, she was timid.
I didn’t dare to pick up food while eating, I didn’t dare to speak loudly, and no matter what I did, I was afraid of bothering them.
It was their entire family who worked together to slowly raise the timid little girl into the person she is today, who speaks her mind and does whatever she wants.
In Jiang Cha's heart, what he cares about most is Aunt Ye's thoughts and the opinions of others.
She finally convinced herself and got over the hurdle in her heart, and showed signs of goodwill towards him.
He actually extinguished that tiny flame with his own hands.
"Do you think I had a brain problem?"
Ji Zhixu rolled his eyes at him. "You only realized it now? Isn't it a little too late?"
Huo Jingchuan looked at him dimly.
"First, you're a psychiatrist, second, you're my best friend, and third, why can't you comfort me?"
Ji Zhixu took out the pen from the pocket of his white coat and played with it in his hand.
"What did Sister Chacha say to you? Why did you feel so discouraged?"
"She asked me if I would push her away without hesitation if something like this happened again."
Ji Zhixu: “…”
He put the pen on the table and said, "How about I find two more girls for you? I have a distant cousin. Although she's not as pretty as Cha Cha, she's pretty good overall!"
"Shut up!"
I knew it was unreliable to ask him.
If Ji Zhixu was a reliable person, he wouldn't have been without a girl for all these years.
Jiang Cha came back late today.
When she arrived home with the group, Huo Jingchuan, Huo Jingye and Wu Xiaocao were already at home.
Huo Jingchuan directed Huo Jingye to prepare dinner, with Wu Xiaocao helping him.
Wu Xiaocao did everything in an orderly manner, from washing to cutting vegetables.
But when it came to cooking, Huo Jingye was in a mess.
He couldn't do it himself, and kept saying that Wu Xiaocao was too young and it was unsafe to use fire.
What he didn't know was that in Wu Xiaocao's opinion, Huo Jingye's use of fire was more dangerous than hers.
Which good person would leave more food scraps on the stove than in the pot when cooking?
I watched as Huo Jingye fried half of the cabbage into nothing but half.
Wu Xiaocao really couldn't bear it anymore.
"Or, let me do it!"
In fact, she cooked a lot when she was at the Wu family before.
When Wu Xiaocao was not even as tall as the stove, he already knew how to cook dumpling soup.
Although she didn't get any to eat.
But, it smells delicious.
"Brother, if you keep frying like this, we'll all have to eat our plates tonight!"
Huo Jingye felt that what Wu Xiaocao said made sense.
"Then let me help you light the fire!"
Huo Jingye is not good at cooking, but he is good at making fire!
When the ginger tea arrived home, the dishes were already on the table.
Huo Jingchuan is in Huo Tingkun's study.
There are signs of having been turned over here.
Jiang Cha arrived at the study first, and Huo Jingchuan said softly, "The fish is in the net."
Jiang Cha felt half relieved.
