Chapter 71 How about we give it a try?
Cao Dongliang took the candy, poured some, and ran away as if there was a ghost chasing him.
Only he himself knew that if he didn't run away, his heart would burst out of his body.
I don’t know if he is qualified to become Deputy Captain Huo’s brother-in-law.
As long as he can become Deputy Captain Huo's brother-in-law, he would be willing to do it even if he was beaten by Deputy Captain Huo!
Jiang Cha opened the lunch box, which contained half a bowl of rice, scrambled eggs with tomatoes and only eggs, twice-cooked pork with the fat removed, and a handful of green vegetables the size of a fist.
"Didn't you say you were going to a meeting?"
Jiang Cha clutched the lunch box and couldn't help but look outside the door again.
Huo Jingchuan really didn't come.
I was used to having dinner with Huo Jingchuan every day, but suddenly without her, the ginger tea tasted a bit bland.
What she didn't expect was that when she got home from get off work, she didn't see Huo Jingchuan either.
Huo Tingkun said that because the army was having a rally recently, Huo Jingchuan was the team leader and had to stay in the army for training, and he probably wouldn't be back for a week.
Jiang Cha's heart was in his throat.
She began to suspect that maybe Zhang Keda had said something to Huo Jingchuan last night, and Huo Jingchuan didn't come back just to avoid her.
Once this idea took shape, it would be an extremely terrifying thing for ginger tea.
She didn't eat well for lunch and didn't eat much for dinner either.
Lying in bed at night, Jiang Cha tossed and turned until the second half of the night when he finally fell asleep.
Since last Sunday, Jiang Cha hasn't seen Huo Jingchuan for six consecutive days.
She was weighed down by something, and couldn't eat or sleep. She finally made it to Saturday, when Jiang Cha had a day off. She went to the military hospital alone to see Ji Zhixu for an appointment.
Jiang Cha felt that he should receive more psychological counseling.
If she continues to worry like this, she will probably scare herself to death before her thoughts are exposed!
Ji Zhixu's psychological clinic is at the end of a row of outpatient offices.
In the past, ginger tea had to pass through all doctors' outpatient offices.
In hospitals of this era, the departments are not clearly divided, and there are not many people coming to see a doctor. Some offices are simply closed and there are no doctors on duty.
When Jiang Cha walked to the third to last room, he suddenly heard a familiar name.
"Brother Jingchuan, thank you so much today."
Brother Jingchuan?
When Jiang Cha heard the name, he subconsciously stopped.
Didn’t they say that there was a rally in the army and they had to train hard, so they couldn’t go home?
Jiang Cha's hand tightly grasped the strap of the cross-body bag.
The door of this office was ajar. Through the crack, Jiang Cha saw Huo Jingchuan standing in front of the doctor's desk.
Next to him sat a young girl with waist-length hair. She was wearing a white Dacron shirt, a blue-black pleated skirt, and a pair of black leather shoes.
Slender and graceful figure, long, thick black hair.
At first glance, she is a girl of extreme excellence.
The girl half raised her head and looked at Huo Jingchuan. Huo Jingchuan lowered his head to look at him, his profile caught in the light and shadow, as if his eyes, which were looking at the girl, were coated with a layer of soft light.
Looking at it this way, his eyes seemed unusually affectionate.
Is that the girl he likes?
Jiang Cha didn't dare to look at it again.
She was afraid that she would not be able to control herself and rush into the office to pull Huo Jingchuan away from the girl.
Jiang Cha thought that she might really be sick.
If Ji Zhixu knew about such a sick idea, would he tell Huo Jingchuan?
How would Huo Jingchuan view her?
Or... let's just forget it!
Jiang Cha turned around and left, walking faster and faster.
Huo Jingchuan seemed to see Jiang Cha, but when he pushed the door open, he did not see Jiang Cha.
The weather in midsummer is like a child's face, changing at any time.
The sun was shining brightly in the sky one second, but the next moment it was covered with dark clouds and rain was pouring down.
There was a strong wind and she was riding her bicycle. The heavy rain was pouring down on her face and she couldn't see the road at all.
Jiang Cha simply pushed the cart and hid under the eaves of someone else's house.
The rain came hard and fast. After Jiang Cha parked his bicycle on the side of the road, he lowered his head to tidy up his wet hair and clothes.
A dark umbrella suddenly appeared above her head.
Black leather shoes and neat green military pants.
Jiang Cha didn't dare look up again, for fear of seeing the face that made her think about it day and night, and love and hate it.
She hasn't adjusted her emotions enough to face him yet.
The next second, a familiar voice exploded in her ears.
"It's raining so hard, why are you here?"
Jiang Cha looked up and saw Zhang Keda's face.
At that moment, it was hard to tell whether it was disappointment or something else, but she smiled a smile that was uglier than crying.
"Dada, I'm heartbroken!"
Tears as big as beans fell drop by drop, even more violently than the rain outside the eaves.
Zhang Keda is a rough man and never carries a handkerchief in his pocket.
He searched his body from top to bottom, left to right, but couldn't find anything to wipe Jiang Cha's tears.
"Ancestor, please don't cry! You're crying the sky down!"
Zhang Keda simply wiped Jiang Cha's tears with his hands.
His rough fingertips fell on Jiang Cha's soft face. He hated to see Jiang Cha cry the most.
Jiang Cha also knew that she was a failure, but she couldn't control herself.
A military green jeep sped through the rain. Two people were hiding under the eaves in an intimate posture. The heavy rain and the wipers made their presence known, and their presence was revealed in Huo Jingchuan's scarlet eyes.
The black steering wheel was soaked with sweat from Huo Jingchuan's palms. His whole body was tense, and the muscles in his arms were stretched due to the force.
Zhan Yiping, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, suddenly felt cold.
She crossed her arms and stroked them, watching the scenery passing by outside the window.
The tall man was holding an umbrella, with most of the edge leaning towards the woman. Half of his shoulder was wet, but he ignored it.
She sighed sincerely: "The relationship between the two of them must be very good!"
With a crackling sound.
Huo Jingchuan slammed on the brakes, and Zhan Yiping was caught off guard. Due to inertia, her body hit the back of the front seat hard with a bang.
"ah!"
She cried out in pain, "Huo Jingchuan, what are you doing?"
Huo Jingchuan looked in the rearview mirror, his eyes like cold knives.
"Miss Zhan, do you mind if there's one more person in the car?"
Zhan Yiping turned her head and looked out through the car window. The man and woman who had been hiding under the eaves were almost walking to the side of the car.
"Do you know them?"
Huo Jingchuan's attitude has already revealed everything.
"That girl... is the one you like?"
She came into contact with Huo Jingchuan, but Huo Jingchuan was always cold and indifferent to her, neither cold nor warm, as if he was a person without any warmth at all.
This was the first time that Zhan Yiping saw an expression other than indifference on Huo Jingchuan's face.
Although, it is worse than indifference, it is the ultimate coldness.
"Miss Zhan, I was just ordered to accompany you to the hospital for treatment. Aren't you meddling too much?"
"Huo Jingchuan, can't you be a little more polite to me?"
She was one of the members of the inspection team that came to Chuncheng from Jingshi, and her father was the leader of the Jingcheng Military Region.
She condescended to follow Huo Jingchuan and kept smiling at him for two or three days, which was already a huge honor for Huo Jingchuan.
Not only did he not appreciate it, but he was actually so rude to her?
"Ms. Zhan, your question is too presumptuous."
"you……"
Huo Jingchuan rolled down the car window, and the heavy rain flowed in through the window and into the car.
"Chacha, get in the car."
Jiang Cha held the handlebars of the bicycle tightly, pursed her lips, and saw Zhan Yiping sitting in the car.
She remembered the scene she had just seen in the doctor's office.
Huo Jingchuan already has someone he likes.
He is now with the person he likes.
Why did she have to come between them and make herself miserable?
Jiang Cha shook his head, "No, I can go back by myself."
She didn't even have the courage to question, and could only keep her sadness in her heart silently.
Zhang Keda put his arm around Jiang Cha’s shoulders.
"Don't worry, big brother. I will definitely send Cha Cha home safely!"
"I'll say it again, I'm not your big brother!"
It seems that he didn't hurt him last time.
This man could always easily provoke his anger.
That dazzling hand...
"Really, no need, big brother!"
Jiang Cha forced a smile. They had only not seen each other for a few days, but she felt so unfamiliar with him that it was as if she had suddenly returned to the time when they first met.
"Dada will take me home."
Jiang Cha pulled Zhang Keda away.
As soon as she turned around, the tears that she had finally stopped burst out even more violently than the heavy rain outside the umbrella.
Huo Jingchuan just stared blankly at Jiang Cha and Zhang Keda disappearing into the rain.
The bitter feeling that had been lingering in my chest for a long time was magnified infinitely at this moment.
Huo Jingchuan started the car again. Whoever wanted to do this crappy mission could do it. He would send the target back to the army and hand it over to someone else.
He was worried that if he didn't go home for a few days, he would be able to drink ginger tea and Zhang Keda's wedding wine the next time he went back.
Jiang Cha's clothes were all wet, so Zhang Keda took Jiang Cha back to his home.
Zhang Xuan was not at home, so Zhang Keda took out a half-worn dress from the room where his aunt used to live and handed it to Jiang Cha.
"At home, we only have my aunt's clothes that you can barely wear. Go change into them first. You'll catch a cold easily if you wear wet clothes."
The ginger tea did feel cold.
She changed her clothes and put her wet clothes into her bag, planning to take them back when the rain stopped.
Zhang Keda made her a bowl of hot ginger soup.
It was filled with plenty of ginger and a large piece of brown sugar. It was sweet and spicy in one bite.
He frowned while drinking ginger tea.
She hated the taste of ginger.
"Zhang Keda, you must have added half a pound of ginger to this bowl, right?"
Zhang Keda took a clean towel and wiped Jiang Cha's hair.
"With your body, if you don't add some ginger to help you sweat, you'll get a fever at night after getting caught in the rain. I'm doing this for your own good!"
I endured the strong ginger flavor and drank the ginger tea mouthful by mouthful.
"Jiang Cha, why are you so useless? You've tortured yourself like this for a man?"
Jiang Cha pursed his lips, "Just shut up!"
Can she control matters like feelings just by saying so?
"Cha Cha, how about we give it a try!"
"puff!"
The ginger tea was choked by the brown sugar ginger water, and the ginger flavor was immediately inhaled into the lungs...
