Su Jianshan shook his head and said nonchalantly, "It's okay."
Liu Tao didn't believe that everything was fine. She moved closer and wanted to take a closer look, but the man subconsciously hid behind her and avoided her touch.
"I said it's okay, so it's okay."
The gatekeeper didn't know that Liu Tao was married. He found this scene strange and funny, and even deliberately made a few jokes: "These are just some minor problems of working in the mines. Not everyone can earn a salary of forty, fifty or even a hundred yuan a month! Little girl, if you like someone, you have to accept his flaws. What? You're disgusted with him..."
"Old man, stop talking nonsense!" Su Jianshan yelled angrily.
Liu Tao's eyes instantly turned redder, and she said in shock: "Su Jianshan, are you risking your life to make money? What's wrong with your ears? Have you checked them out?! I'll take you to the hospital, okay?!"
"I'm not going."
"If you don't go, I'll go tell Nian Nian about this right now!"
"..."
Su Jianshan was visibly irritated. Everyone who learned how to mine had ear problems, just to varying degrees. His was relatively less affected. It was just that Master Ding had just retired these two days, so the workload on Su Jianshan's shoulders became heavier, and he hadn't had a good night's sleep for two days in a row.
But this month's salary will be much higher than last month. He has good blasting skills and is skilled in his techniques. Some other mines are already trying to poach him. The trade union has given Su Jianshan a lot of employee benefits, both overtly and covertly, in an attempt to retain this talent.
At the mine, Su Jianshan gradually became an expert in mining. He would not give up this career no matter what, so he could only hide the matter about his ears from his sister for the time being.
Seeing Liu Tao's surprised expression, Su Jianshan scratched his head and said in despair, "Okay, I'll take you to the hospital now."
"I took you to the hospital," Liu Tao corrected.
Su Jianshan had no intention of arguing with her about these issues. Ever since Liu Tao chose to break up with him, keeping distance had been the best option for both of them. He knew that Liu Tao was married, and this kind of concern now was not appropriate and was abnormal. Su Jianshan could also see that something was not right with her mood. He did not want to go to the hospital with Liu Tao, but wanted to send her back.
After greeting Xiao Zhu at the mine, the other party threw a jeep key over. In Liu Tao's shocked eyes, Su Jianshan strode towards the dilapidated jeep parked outside the mine.
He started the car with ease, while Liu Tao carefully sat in the passenger seat. She asked in disbelief, "You, you can drive?!"
"Yes, I just learned it."
Su Jianshan answered readily. Seeing Liu Tao holding onto the safety belt tightly with both hands, he felt a little hurt. "Some time ago, Nian Nian asked me to buy a bicycle, saying it would be convenient for me to go home. After I talked to my master, the mine threw a second-hand jeep over. As long as I can learn how to ride it, I can drive it as I like..."
He drove out steadily, his tone was calm and gentle, but it was enough to stir up a storm in Liu Tao's heart. You know, in their art troupe, only the troupe leader level people can be equipped with a car. Su Jianshan was a miner, but the gatekeeper looked at him with favor. Coupled with the respect of those people, Liu Tao vaguely guessed that maybe Su Jianshan was not as down and out as he appeared, and he seemed to have really found a good job.
The man continued to become better and more brilliant. Thinking of the illusion that Liu's mother had once mentioned, Liu Tao swallowed her saliva and asked tentatively, "Do you know Chairman Guo of the labor union?"
"You are talking about Guo Bin, he is my elder brother." Su Jianshan's tone was still slightly disdainful.
"..."
There was no need to guess, the person who had eaten in the box last time must have been Su Jianshan. At this moment, Liu Tao's heart sank to the extreme. It was not until now that she realized that she seemed to have never understood Su Jianshan.
My heart feels even more bitter.
During the rest of the journey, Liu Tao was like an eggplant hit by frost, not saying a word. Su Jianshan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The more he said, the more mistakes he would make. In fact, he didn't want to say anything. He just wanted to send the lost Liu Tao back to where she belonged.
Su Jianshan still remembered how Liu's mother disliked him, so the car did not drive to Liu's house, nor to Li's house, but stopped in front of the door of the art troupe. When Liu Tao raised her eyes after being silent, she found that she had gone around in circles and returned to the art troupe she least wanted to go back to.
She was so angry that she clenched her teeth for a moment: "Su Jianshan, what do you mean?! I said I would take you to the hospital..."
"No."
"Yes!"
Su Jianshan unbuckled her seat belt with a click, staring at her with his dark eyes without blinking, his attitude indescribably serious: "Comrade Liu Tao, you have no right to control me."
"..."
Liu Tao's movement to pull him suddenly stopped in mid-air. She woke up as if from a dream and finally realized how wrong she was. For a moment, she even forgot about Li Xiang's existence, but Su Jianshan did not forget. He adhered to principles more than anyone else, but still retained a bit of pity for her.
Liu Tao wanted to cry again. She was afraid of losing her composure, so she quickly opened the car door and ran towards the art troupe. The guard subconsciously opened the door for her.
The female comrade not far away spotted Liu Tao and ran over quickly.
"Oh Liu Tao! You're finally here! Hurry to the dance studio, your lover is having a big fight with Captain Su, and he said he wants justice for you--!"
Liu Tao was confused: "What?!"
Before she could react, a figure passed by her side and asked repeatedly, "Who?! Are you making trouble with my sister?!"
"Comrade, you can't just come in..." The guard wanted to stop Su Jianshan, but the next second, he immediately recognized him and hurriedly led Su Jianshan to the sentry box to register. Liu Tao tried every way to persuade Su Jianshan in her heart. She didn't want him to meet Li Xiang, and didn't want him to know what an embarrassing person he had married, but she underestimated the importance of Su Niannian in Su Jianshan's heart.
The moment he wrote his name, Su Jianshan walked briskly, pushed away Liu Tao who was in the way, and ran towards the inside of the art troupe.
Liu Tao, who was left behind, said: "..."
It was a familiar feeling, but she no longer had the right to be jealous.
