Chapter 89 Don't Touch Me
"Langge, a Tartar cloud is floating in the sky. My third brother is going on a long journey today..."
As the high-pitched and loud female voice sounded along with the music, there was immediately a burst of warm applause from the audience.
This style of songs is simply Liu Cuicui's specialty.
The high-pitched voice carries with it the unique charm of folk songs, and whether it is raising or lowering the voice, it is all natural.
Especially when she sang the lyrics of 'The East is Red, the Sun is Rising', her voice was so majestic that it incorporated all her worship and admiration for the great man.
Many people in the audience hummed along.
Liu Cuicui's mother was extremely proud of her outstanding daughter on the stage.
"Our daughter has been a beautiful singer since she was little. Look at her looks and figure, and listen to her beautiful voice. I'm not exaggerating, but even in our area, there's no girl better than our daughter!"
Liu Cuicui, standing on the stage, was wearing a neat military uniform, with makeup on her face. Her black hair was braided into two pigtails, one hanging on her chest. Her voice was crisp and beautiful, and her eyes were big and bright.
Li Zhiming stared at Liu Cuicui on the stage and couldn't take his eyes off her.
"Cuicui is indeed excellent, but our Zhiming is not bad either. Our Zhiming is about to be promoted to team leader in the factory!"
Li Zhiming's mother was also particularly proud when she mentioned the word "class monitor".
Liu Cuicui's mother sat upright with her head held high and her chest puffed out.
"The main thing is, it depends on what the children think. If the children are angry with each other, I don't have any objections."
"That's right, the children's opinions are the most important."
When Li Zhiming's mother saw Li Zhiming like this, she knew that this boy must have fallen in love with Liu Cuicui.
Being able to have such an outstanding daughter-in-law is a great honor for her in the surrounding villages.
The two families each had their own plans.
Jiang Cha has been watching Liu Cuicui's performance carefully.
What she was concerned about was Liu Cuicui's face.
Jiang Cha put Liu Cuicui's things back into her makeup bag and whispered to Ye Surong, "Mom, I'm going backstage again."
"Shall I accompany you?"
"No need." Jiang Cha rejected Ye Surong's suggestion.
"You finally relax now, I can go by myself."
Huo Jingchuan hasn't come back yet.
Huo Tingkun originally wanted Huo Jingye to go with Jiang Cha.
But in the blink of an eye, Huo Jingye was called away by someone unknown.
"An unreliable guy."
Huo Tingkun shook his head helplessly.
Jiang Cha went backstage alone, waiting for Liu Cuicui to leave the stage.
Liu Cuicui performed the last show.
There was basically no one backstage.
As soon as Jiang Cha arrived backstage, before he saw Liu Cuicui, he saw Cen Yu first.
That hunting look is back.
Jiang Cha didn't like the way he looked at her.
She simply turned her head away and didn't look at Cen Yu.
Normal people, if they can clearly sense someone's dislike for them, generally won't take the initiative to approach and talk to them.
But Cen Yu is not a normal person.
He did feel Jiang Cha's resistance to him, but, so what?
As long as he likes it, a crazy rabbit is even cuter.
"Ginger tea...sister?"
Cen Yu called out with a half-smile, "Can I... call you that?"
"Is it possible? Haven't you already called?"
Jiang Cha rolled her eyes at Cen Yu, showing no intention of having a pleasant conversation with him.
"Sister Jiang Cha, do you have any prejudice against me? I am your elder brother and best friend!"
“…”
What a fucking friend.
What decent friend would look at his friend's sister like that?
There are three words written from top to bottom.
Disrespect.
Jiang Cha should have known with a little thought that Cen Yu must be up to something.
What's more, he got together with Bai Shuyao.
In Jiang Cha's subjective opinion, anyone who can get together with Bai Shuyao is not a good person.
"Don't you want to laugh yourself when you say that?"
Jiang Cha decided it would be safer to go to the waiting area and wait for Liu Cuicui.
However, as soon as she moved, Cen Yu also moved.
He had to stand in front of her step by step.
Cen Yu is about the same height as Huo Jingchuan.
With a height of nearly 1.9 meters, broad shoulders and a narrow waist, he stood in front of Jiang Cha like an indestructible wall.
Jiang Cha knew how great the disparity in power was between men and women.
Not to mention that Cen Yu was a soldier who had been trained in the military camp since he was a child.
If she insisted on confronting Cen Yu head-on, she would be the only one who would suffer.
"What do you want?"
Jiang Cha took two steps back and put some distance between himself and Cen Yu.
"I just want to make friends with Jiang Cha sister."
Jiang Cha didn't want to make friends with him.
Cen Yu snatched Liu Cuicui's makeup bag from Jiang Cha's hand and put it on the table.
"What are you doing?"
Jiang Cha exclaimed and tried to grab it.
Cen Yu pressed on step by step, forcing Jiang Cha to completely ignore the makeup bag and retreat step by step.
"You...what on earth do you want to do? My eldest brother will be here soon. If you dare to be rude to me, he will definitely beat you up."
Cen Yu was not afraid at all.
"I told you, little sister, I just want to be friends with you."
"But I don't want to be friends with you."
"Cen Yu, stay away from her."
As soon as Huo Jingchuan came to the backstage, he saw Jiang Cha being forced into a corner by Cen Yu, like a frightened rabbit.
The angry voice reached Cen Yu's ears before he heard it himself.
Cen Yu didn't rush to let Jiang Cha go, but continued to lean over and whispered in Jiang Cha's ear: "Little sister, you will be willing!"
He has plenty of patience when it comes to interesting prey.
Huo Jingchuan grabbed his shoulders.
Cen Yu accurately grasped Huo Jingchuan's wrist bone, and with his other hand, he lifted it up with a knife-like move.
Huo Jingchuan also quickly grabbed Cen Yu's other wrist.
"What are you doing?"
The staff responsible for finishing work came and sounded unhappy.
"Is this where you guys fight? Do you know how expensive these costumes, props, and equipment are?"
The assistant director waved his hand and said, "Go away, go away, everyone, why are you causing trouble here?"
He didn't care whether the two tall and strong men in front of him were the sons of the division commander and brigade commander. He only knew that he had to take back the things from the backstage in the same way he took them out.
The fight didn't happen.
Jiang Cha breathed a sigh of relief.
Huo Jingchuan and Cen Yu's eyes met, and the situation became tense.
Jiang Cha pulled Huo Jingchuan behind him like a calf protecting his own.
"You are not welcome here, please leave."
Cen Yu glanced at the makeup bag that had been lost, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and walked out of the backstage nonchalantly.
Huo Jingchuan stared at Cen Yu's back and said, "No matter what he says to you, you don't have to pay attention to him."
Jiang Cha said "Oh".
"But, he said, he is your best friend!"
Huo Jingchuan: “…”
He turned the ginger tea back and asked, "You believe this nonsense?"
Jiang Cha pouted. She didn't believe it at first, but after hearing Huo Jingchuan say this, she actually began to believe it a little!
Huo Jingchuan placed Jiang Cha on the chair, half-knelt in front of him, took out the small box of comfrey ointment from his pocket, and carefully applied the ointment to Jiang Cha.
Lithospermum officinale paste is made by brewing ginger tea yourself, adding coptis chinensis, rhubarb, knotweed, sanguisorba officinalis, lithospermum officinale, atractylodes macrocephala and licorice.
It clears away heat and detoxifies, cools blood and dries dampness, promotes blood circulation and regenerates tissue, and has significant medicinal effects.
The soft and cool ointment was evenly applied on the ginger tea-red skin, and the itching and burning sensation was relieved a lot at once.
Jiang Cha curled her lips and looked at Huo Jingchuan's profile when he lowered his head.
Beneath the smooth and full forehead, a pair of heroic eyes are now filled with tenderness.
Jiang Cha suddenly discovered that Huo Jingchuan actually had very long eyelashes.
She raised her other hand and gently touched the ends of his eyelashes.
Huo Jingchuan raised his eyelids and said, "Don't touch me."
Ginger tea: “…”
The roles are reversed?
Huo Jingchuan did it on purpose.
Jiang Cha withdrew his hand obediently.
Huo Jingchuan felt so distressed just by looking at Jiang Cha's crimson fingers.
"From now on, you are not allowed to touch anything that you know you shouldn't touch."
"I'll pay attention!"
In the past, she was actually very cautious about this aspect.
However, after living a new life, many things she cared about in the past had been buried by time and forgotten in the summer seventeen years ago when she just turned eighteen due to the pressure of life.
Jiang Cha likes the feeling of someone caring about her.
In this way, she felt like she was truly living her life again.
Liu Cuicui stepped down.
Coincidentally, Huo Jingchuan had finished giving Jiang Cha the medicine.
Jiang Cha took out a roll of white gauze from her bag, cut a piece and tied it around her allergic fingers, then gently removed the makeup on Liu Cuicui's face.
"Doctor Jiang, why did my face become like this?"
She needed an answer.
Jiang Cha handed her her makeup bag.
"All your cosmetics have been artificially added with large amounts of lead powder. If you use this stuff for a long time, your face will rot. This is normal."
"How could that be? I always keep my makeup bag with me."
"I just asked my mom to identify it, and she said the same thing. If you don't believe me, you can take these things to the hospital for identification."
"Then is there any hope for my face?"
"You can try."
She had just given Liu Cuicui an acupuncture treatment, which had forced out some of the toxin, and her condition had improved.
"Starting tomorrow, you have to come to me every day. I'll give you acupuncture. Also, for this month, you must not wear makeup. After washing your face every day, apply this ointment once in the morning and once in the evening. The chances of recovery are still very high."
"If my face is cured, I will also give you a banner!"
Liu Cuicui couldn't think of a better way to express her gratitude than by presenting a banner.
Jiang Cha really likes the feeling of being presented with a banner.
"Let's talk about it when you're better."
After instructing Liu Cuicui on the precautions, Jiang Cha followed the crowd out of the auditorium and walked side by side with Huo Jingchuan.
From a distance, Jiang Cha saw Bai Shuyao being dragged away by Cen Yu.
"Huo Jingchuan."
Huo Jingchuan raised his eyebrows. Instead of calling him "big brother", he started calling him by his name?
"What's wrong?"
"Tell me, does Liu Cuicui's incident have anything to do with Bai Shuyao?"
Huo Jingchuan was not interested in analyzing this issue.
“Maybe!”
His answer was ambiguous.
Jiang Cha snorted coldly.
Perfunctory.
